I've had some time to mull over the cloak mechanics. On the whole I like whats been done. Its not going to be something that's easy to use effectively and still a tool that requires skill to use.
- Its easy to get caught in decloak (min 50% charge needed to cloak) - therefore your decloaked profile has to be considered. - Movement is a massive factor. Its not like other games with cloak where it'll just throw your aim off. Your a distinct blue outline - This limits the range that can be covered effectively. Getting from point to point on manus peak for instance will still take a lot of navigation to avoid fire. - Cloaked hacking is not an issue as taking an objective is a very obvious act. But a critical CRU? sounds like it opens up some interesting tactical options. - All of these mean the basic cloak (which is realistically the only one other suits might be able to fit) offers very few advantages.
I really hope that this addition will make a change to our fits. Speed and total HP are slightly less of a consideration so it might allow us to open up options we couldn't really explore before.

Plus your limited to basic gear with that loadout and still very detectable while uncloaked (and 30secs is a short cloak so you can't get much done in that time)
