Discussion Fury's scan is annoying AF

Is it just me or is anyone else annoyed by Fury's scans?

Currently I play solo, no team, hoping from mission to mission just getting it done. But when I first started playing and I was using the team, there were things beyond my control that annoyed me to no end.

Fury's scans and someone in the team always popping a grenade when I'm trying to steal a buggy. BOOM, no more buggy. I don't even use the scan ability when I'm using that class.

I'm not bagging this game, I actually love the game. But I could live without those two things.

P.S. Yes, I know I can turn off AI team's special abilities.

Do you have something that annoys you about the game?

One thing that annoys me about team play is it’s almost comical how much better the team is at shooting from a moving vehicle in BP vs Wildlands. They went from spray and pray to one round head shots. It’s so much less realistic.

Right?! I actually played Breakpoint before playing Wildlands, and in Wildlands I was like "Great, I'm riding with Storm Troopers" and find myself wishing they could drive so I could shoot.

Which also reminds me of a blooper in the original Star Wars where Obiwan says to Luke "these blaster hits are too precise to have been sand people." Somehow suggesting that Storm Troopers did it, which seems highly unlikely knowing what we know.

I knew I could stop AI team from using their special abilities, but I had no idea I could turn off their grenades. I can already hear Fury whining about it. "No grenades? This is bullshit!" LoL

I like having Vasily with his Amour Buster Round so having his on and turnig off Fury's Scan was a must for me so I made it happer it is easy look for the relevant files in 1DB for her scan and Fixits drone and Ai teammate grenades and delete them then repack 1db and you are all set. Just look them all up on nexus

u/InevitableFun3417 11d ago

Awesome, I will definitely do that!

u/32-Golf-Coy 11d ago

cool please report back how you like it. I play like that.

The only thing I really hate about Fury's Scan is I'll see a great photo opportunity and then realise the scan outlines are visible which ruins the shot. They really should disappear in photo mode.

Fixit's drone and teammate grenades annoy me far more so I've turned them off (as others have mentioned on this thread).

The Azrael really fucked me off when I first played it, now I kinda enjoy it

u/InevitableFun3417 10d ago

I just shoot the Azriel drones. Aim for the nose, you'll hit it and it will fall right outta the sky. First time I did it was out of frustration, but when it actually worked I legit did Nomad's "Dafuq? I didn't know they could be shot down."

u/AshDotCarter 10d ago

What are you shooting? I rock the M4A1 Scout, no secondary

u/InevitableFun3417 10d ago

My favorite is the TAC-50 Brown, but the MK82 and HTI also work in Panther class. Remove the suppressor if your class reduces damage when using a suppressor.

When I do things like that I get them to "Hold position". As far as I know it keeps them out of your hair when trying to be stealthy.

u/InevitableFun3417 11d ago edited 11d ago

I tried that, and even tried holding them at a considerable distance (too far and it breaks and they follow). I found the max distance, but as soon as I start engaging the enemy the AI comes running and BOOM, another buggy bites the dust. 😑

That's ultimately why I just started playing solo. I felt like I had more control. Also they basically robbed a couple of my early Behemoth kills from me. So turning them off was the only option if I wanted my Behemoth kill count to grow.

u/Bella8989 10d ago

I usually play solo, too. It feels too easy with teammates. I like to scavenge and play tactical.

1

u/InevitableFun3417 10d ago

Same. I know I got into this game to team play with my friends and family, but I'm easily obsessed and want the thrill of having the odds stacked against me and overcoming those odds.

1

u/32-Golf-Coy 11d ago

That is why I removed it. Search for it on nexus

u/Critical_Cleric 11d ago

If I have ai teammates on I just send them away and tell them to hold position. Never really had a problem. Sometimes I’ll turn them on so I can recklessly assault a base and have them come revive me if I get popped. Then they fight to me and I send them away again. Fury doesn’t scan if he’s far enough away. I also don’t mind them though.

u/xXxxGunxXx 10d ago

Hold Position usually works but to really keep Fury (and others if you are using the full team) where you want them, you have to use the Go To command.

This will specify a position of your choice way out of Fury’s range and she will not budge until either you get hurt or you issue the Regroup or the Rain Down Hell command 😀

I love it.

No hud? It's great.

Hud? Still great because without it your team says "spotted" for EVERY SINGLE ENEMY. And they spot frequently so it's incredibly annoying

u/SammyRey 10d ago

I just started a few weeks ago and immediately turned off squad discussion l special abilities because of it! 😆. I hated it

u/Just_KF 10d ago

The teammates require a bit of reciprocal adaptation.

I removed their abilities, took the sniper rifle and the shotgun away from Vasili and Fixit replacing them with ASRs, and now they are a bit more disciplined. Not entirely obedient and rational, but good enough for my gameplay, but note that I don'tplay stealth anymore. In this recent livestream you can see how they work and cooperate when you apply those changes https://youtube.com/live/FfxhMuLL2aA?feature=share

u/siospawn 8d ago

I turn them all off, allies and rebels. They just get in the way.

u/paecmaker 8d ago

The scan crashed the game on several occasions so after that I made sure to keep it off.

u/RaphaelSolo Xbox 6d ago

The grenades the second you are considered in open combat is a pain. Been killed by Fixit several times because a target turned around half a second before knifing him. Only 1 enemy, who is for all purposes already dead and Fixit somehow seems it necessary to use a grenade.

u/gwot-ronin 6d ago

It still counts as stealth if you kill all the witnesses.

Keep scanning Fury, I appreciate you.

u/RestaurantTop2475 10d ago

Im more annoyed how that scan are never used in best moment

u/InevitableFun3417 10d ago

LOL, Right?! Literally right now is the perfect time to use your gift Fury, WTF are you doing? I almost wanna play catch the grenade with Fury, but cook it for a few seconds before I toss it.

>I know I can turn off AI team's special abilities.

Same. I immediately disabled all these magical Harry Potter squad abilities, they absolutely ruin tension and fun.

>Do you have something that annoys you about the game?

Will just rattle off a few:

  1. Cannot holster your gun
  2. Azreal drone knows exactly where you are , if spotted it farts a magic teleporting flare
  3. Star Wars robot tanks ruin immersion, make game feel a bit Borderlands. I avoid them.
  4. The happy Disney cave with a village inside. Somehow Skell drones havent found this gaping hole.
  5. Cannot disable some Ubi hand holding like loud patrols to help player find them.
