Title. (CLARIFICATION: If im in the middle of a jump do i show up on seismic sensors?)

That would be interesting to Test. Do you Blip when you land? Seismic does not pick up stationary Mechs, so a Poptart, theoretically, should not create a Blip, unless the landing counts as movement. Hmmmm.

JJ landing counts, but air time doesn't.

Hope it wont stay this way but currently you do.

I'm kinda enjoying having omnivision (I can see behind me through walls- screw you flankers!) but as it becomes more common we're going to see how horribly overpowered it is at stopping flankers and brawlers.

Think it needs to go, personally.

It picks up somebody behind me, behind a building, flying and one of the things I love about this game is how intel starved you normally are.

IF this is true then it is broken and should be made unavailable until it is fix'd

Good question. Idk.

[MaddMaxx]

Don't have one yet either. How long does the contact Blip actually last?

Seems to pulse once per second and the contact stays on radar as long as they are in range.

Spiders would mostly benefit (long hang time), but the reality is that it kinda makes no difference if you understand the blips on your radar...

Thanks. Do roof tops count too?
