bridget are you taking into account competative play in your suggestion to add new functionality to the scout?

i completely understand you wanting to give the scout some noob friendly skills, but won't those 'noob freindly' skills be exploited in combination with the scouts advanatge in competative play, making him to good when pros use it and thus break the balance?

i suppose it all depends on what your plans were for the new scout skills.

as for the shottie switch i like it, the dev's are in complete control of the game and such a small switch would be nice to see and a refreshing change in stratagy which will bring back many players from pickups atleast to test it out. and hey if it doesn't work, no harm no foul atleast you changed it up a bit.
