Third Eye Cam


(rapid_shot) #1

First off, I really like the third eye cam thus far. On a round of ~7v7, I was able to get 4000 xp from 1 kill and everything else was +50 for spotting a player that got killed. There are a few things I would like to see included for it though.

  • Being able to spot turrets
  • Getting assists as well as +50 xp for spotted kills

What does everyone think if it so far?

I’ve been having a lot of fun with it. I think the throwing distance is a little too exaggerated currently, and it’s a bit annoying to have it explode when you press F to mount any MG or use your PDA. The rest of the loadout is pretty frustrating, particularly the pistol.

As for it giving you an assist, I guess that’s what the spotted player +50 XP is for. You assisted in the kill by spotting the player.

Needs an SMG.

Wouldnt say that now, with a different optic(and im pretty sure that there will be others) the semi scope could be much more useful.

I was meaning an actual assist. On the scoreboard, it keeps track of kills, deaths, and assists. Those were the assists I’m referring to. As it is now, it says assist, but doesn’t give you one.

I find the player spotting very useful for the team. I think the covert would definitely play a bigger role with his radar capabilities if the spawn times were a bit more significant, because it really does allow you to pre-fire corners very effectively. It should spot both turrets and mines too imo, and perhaps in a comp mode only detect turrets/mines. Can you trigger it to explode though?? I haven’t had the chance to really try it out.

An increased unscoped riffle accuracy would also be a good compromise.

I’m pretty sure you get an “Assist” when your cam/HB Sensor spotts someone who gets killed.

Um so now Ive built a new pc, I’ve had a chance to try this new patch out…

Would prefer if the detonation of the 3rd eye was triggered off mouse1.
The impaired “brink vision” when using the camera feels forced. Perhaps remove the colour but keep the blur.

I like to throw them and detonate them like a grenade so changing it to mouse 1 would personally annoy me since there have been times where I’ve been in a firefight as well!


(Humate) #11

Yes thought of that… :slight_smile: perhaps have a windup, and reduce the throwing distance…

Nope. I finished that round 1 kill, 2 deaths, 0 assists, but 4000+ xp from the cam.
