    What about adding scouting reward into this game ? Scouting is really important and dangerous, especially there is no fixer,speeder may be destroyed at the beginning of the game. But team need to know where enermies are and make some strategies. So I think it's good to offer rewards to scouting speeders and enforcers, like WOT. Just suggestions ~

    I‘d also like to get some rewards for the distraction I run for my team, tons of missed shots from the enemy but why should anyone care as thex are missed shots anyway. Still I am sure that running a good distraction helps your team a lot

    Just don't do any YOLO moves... Your better of alive and not know where the enemy is than dead and have an idea.
    You'll run into the enemy eventually (Though it may take a while, once it took 2 min for the teams to find each other!) . And meanwhile, find a good defensive position.

    I don't find speeders under represented with stars like I do fixers, so I personally don't see it as a huge problem. I don't play a speeder, so I can't comment on gold and sugar payouts per game, but I assume it's similar to the others.

    Everyone plays their role, including a speeder who is scouting for the team. A shooter is usually doing the damage, a defender is usually taking the damage, a fixer is healing, and an enforcer is playing all roles. I play plenty of games where speeders, defenders, and enforcers are getting 3 stars.

    sure with flare and frost it‘s easy to get 3 stars, with 2 weapons and tesla not that easy but still possible. Speeder definitely doesn‘t get too little rewards, it‘s just fine. It‘s just that the rest of your team sometimes doesn‘t even realize that you run a lot of distraction. But yeah as I said, rewards on speeders are fine, just like most other boats (idk about fixer but I have already seen some players complaiming about the low rewards(

    Sometimes scouting helps a lot, ur teammates are not seen and damage a lot to the other. When they confront, much more hp will help team win the battle.if contributes a lot to winning,why can't we do this and why can't we be rewarded ?

    We can do this, as long as we're careful and dont go out from behind cover too much.

    Problem will be seal clubbers they will just go scouting and die putting team in disadvantage 4v5 generally ends up on losing side with occasional win. My thought.

    I agree that this is a bad idea. I play 4 boats including Speeder and when I player Shooter/Enforcer/Fixer I could care less about knowing that the opponents are halfway across the map. I am more concerned about my team sticking together and not freelancing. Whenever I play with a scouting on my team speeder, the most common results are:
    1. The speeder is destroyed in 15 seconds because he runs into the enemy team and can't get away. Or he limps away with about 50% HP and then is useless for the rest of the battle, unless we have a fixer.
    2. The shooter scouts the enemy team, and then the other 4 boats go in completely different directions to try and attack them, resulting in the enemy team focus firing to pick us off.
    I've found the most difficult speeders to face are the distraction speeders that engage and distract in the middle of battle.

    And hate those speeders who stuns freezes and lands shot from oblivion for that they get rewards too. Scouting and dieing is useless actually because a handy speeder alive can be devastating. I prefer them alive than dead.

    Agree. Scouting might actually work and have teammates that stick together and know what to do with that information about 1 out of 10 battles.
    But a LIVING Speeder during the heat of battle helps in 8 out of 10 battles. So please stop the scouting, the risk is NOT worth the reward.

    Oh hahaha enfo distraction is the most annoying as they just shot from a far and you can't hit back because they quickly pull themselves away to avoid getting shot

    I haven't seen that,ty bro
    So the purpose of reward for scouting is not to suicide, the reward can't be as much as damage, as much as healing. But there are players who are good at scouting and provide view sight to teammates. Not everyone like what u said :)

    You are correct in your way but how will you differentiate players real scouters and seal clubbers?

    Every time I see an enemy scout, I take it to at LEAST half health before it can get away. So the moral is if the unfriends have a speeder, Don't scout.

    Hey, it is a suggestion. I have told u the reward shouldn't be as much as damage. If a speeder wants to suicide, there are always ways to do that. It's contribution to win,so adding some rewards for that. But u say there are clubbers all the time. K, u are correct in ur way, too, bro. No need discuss. :)
