That Caldari Scout looks better in game than the artist concept. I can't wait to see the other suits in 3D. It would have been nice to see animated gifs like this.

Also, the encouragement of specialization in the Logi suits is a welcome one. It further defines racial preferences and roles, and creating more specialization is always more preferable to homogenization.
One question, though: why didn't you guys create a role bonus for Assault suits that gives ~15-20% damage bonus to light weapons, then nerf all light weapons (base amounts) by 15-20%? That'd really emphasize Assault suit use as the primary slayers and seriously curb slayer logis. It'd also help curtail the use of heavy suits running around with light weapons, as is the case so rampantly now.
What you're describing is the bonus given to Commandos...might breath some new life into them as slayers.

Also, can you repair armor/shield/resupply nanite while cloaked?
Like the other equipment skills, there probably won't be one for cloaks. The only things that will benefit equipment will be the individual logi skills and scouts, to my knowledge. |

If you are scanned successfully and then activate your cloak, which would put you under the scan precision of the person who scanned you, do you disappear? Meleeing while cloaked will cause you to decloak, even if you miss your target. I really think this is a mistake to let them do that. Looks like all the guys practicing melee with maxed out hand-to-hand combat skills maxed are gonna get their dream come true. What about throwing grenades? Especially Flux Grenades, Can I flux the REs off a point before I hack it? or do I have to decloak, flux, cloak, hack?
My understanding is that act of throwing the grenade will decloack you so...you cloak up and are standing still getting your Predator on, see a couple guys move in for the hack, add Thuker Contact grenade to the mix, giggle, move back a bit to let your cloack recharge, cloak up, move in and MagSec the Valiant Starter Medic trying to needle his teamates.
Yesss...my preciousss...

mmm sneaking up on squads of enemys and droping REs at their feet just got easyer, now making the escape will be the only hard part... if there are any left after i detonate the RE that is.

I'm wondering how long it'll take to go from shimmer mode to fully invisible. If it's very quick it'll make stalking prey a breeze, even if they turn around to check behind them.

One suggestion and one question about the cloaks:
1) Suggestion for CCP logibro: Maybe you should post a table with 3 columns:
- "Decloaks you" (switching to grenade/weapon/etc)
- "Makes some kind of visual effect but does not decloak you" (getting shot, sprinting, etc)
- "Does not affect the cloak" (hacking, etc)
2) If you get fluxed, will that decloak you?
Looking very forward to the new mechanic. Adds a whole new level. I forsee a lot more random grenade throwing and shooting the air!

What are the skills for cloaking? What are the prerequisites? How much SP will it cost?
If you're scanned, and then you cloak, will it remove you from the enemy's radar, or will you retain the chevron? If it clears your chevron, and then you immediately decloak, will it return?
Does pivoting cause shimmer or only movement?
If cloaks are OP, the first change should be decloaking when shot with some penalty delay between the last shot and being able to re-cloak.
Best PvE idea ever!

What you're describing is the bonus given to Commandos...might breath some new life into them as slayers. Well, not really. Commandos are supposed to be higher damage with light weapons relative to everyone else. What I was proposing would be to make Assault suits higher damage than everyone else, similar to how Commandos are now, but regular Sentinel and basic heavy suits as well as Logi suits would have damage reduced damage, since light weapons' output would be reduced.
If something were implemented like I proposed--to curb heavy and logi slayer suits--then Commandos would get a higher bonus to keep their power relatively higher and scouts would receive the same bonus, since presumably they are to have the damage potential of an assault medium suit.
e: although, you do bring up an interesting point with Commandos....a heavy suit designed around using light weapons....mind blown.

Interesting to see that you don't decloak to hack. For objectives any defenders will just blast away at the terminal but for CRUs and other points of interest the cloaking scout will definitely be causing trouble. I like.
The NeoCom is the menu on the left side of the screen in your Merc Quarters. You can bring up a limited NeoCom in the Warbarge waiting area and durring battler.
The Cortex is the arm control panel thing.
Godin likes to call it a Codex.

Is there a cloaking skillbook? (I'd assume so given the meta levels on the cloaks.) What does the skill do?

Couple things.
Is the shimmer based on the horizontal speed of the suit aka the ground speed. AKA can we move through the air and stay invisible? So if falling from a ledge wont add shimmer or will?
At what speed does full shimmer take effect? Is it based on movements? So you have three different shimmers, still, walk, sprint? Or is is based on m/s adds more shimmer. Will jumping or pivoting cause shimmer?

CCP, what are you plans for equipment modules? Have any rough ideas yet?
