From the Develop blog "EQUIPMENT BALANCING IN UPRISING 1.8"
Please reconsidering the cloak feature. "You do not decloak when hacking an objective or vehicle" is a bad idea. This feature will create a scout run around the map and activate cloak to hacking and manipulate the WP. CCP should knows this fact already because in EVE, people can not interact with any structure with cloaking. So why CCP do this in DUST? At lease give us a proper answer to clear this. |

When you hack an objective that thing blinks like the police behind you after going 300 in a 50 zone. And there's only so much room the scout could be in. Aim and fire a magazine in the direction -> profit?

It'll definitely make speed hacking minjas an important role on the battlefield.
Think about it: Minmattar Scout fitted with cloak, hacking, and biotic modules, runs around map invisible, hacks point in 2-3 seconds, invis again, onto next point!
Gonna be pretty sick actually.

Will most probably see it in action before casting my vote on this subject. But it is something CCP will see how it develops, hopefully.

because when you hack an objective the ai tells everyone its being hacked the letter flashes and it changes colour so it really dosent matter how stealthy u are once u start to hack everybody knows |

I don't see the problem... the only useful thing could be hacking abandoned vehicles... maybe the LAV used by those Heavies who wander around vaporizing every alone target.
If you are an hacker, a cheater o a glitcher, you deserve death. In real life.

Unfortunately there will be more than a few that have this reaction. It will be quite amusing from my point of view.
The cloaking while being able to hack is going to be an interesting mechanic, and one that I, at current stage, support. Why? Because the severe limitations otherwise on the cloak needs balances for pluses. Looking at the distortion effects for full sprint movement, you may as well not be cloaked, you also have no weapons without switching off your cloak, and cloaking isn't permanent, you have limited time to cloak, so the ability to cloak is dependant on a lot of factors.
This will actually inspire more point guards that actually defend objectives, rather than hack and run off if they're attempting to win. I can see many roles now taking point guard bonuses on board, and the meta will develop accordingly.
Once you go Black, you just never go back!

QQing about this is stupid.
If the enemy is hacking a turret, good. That means they're wasting time on stupid ****.
If you can't kill a cloaked enemy hacking an objective at short or even medium range, you're a ******* scrub.

Seriously? There is only so much space they could possibly be standing in lol throw a grenade, thukker's detonate on impact, scouts have little health...BAM, problem solved.
I say +1 CCP, not decloaking while hacking = good idea. |

I'd like to see a few changes to the cloak mechanic: - Hacking decloaks you - Getting shot by the enemy decloaks you with a re-cloaking delay of x secs - You can have a weapon out while cloaked, firing it decloaks you without actually shooting a bullet, there is a brief delay (maybe 1 sec), and then you can shoot, or you can have the cloaking device "use it" to decloak, switch to your weapon and fire with no fire delay.
I think those would be reasonable changes.
Best PvE idea ever!

You would have either option, and both approaches would be useful in different circumstances.
I think those would be reasonable changes.
I would accept 1 and 2 if I could effectively shoot while cloaked. "firing it decloaks you without actually shooting a bullet" eh, you lost my vote there. It's not that you said shooting decloaks but that the fire button doesn't actually shoot.

I dunno, it seems like a fun idea, and all honesty...if a beginner doesn't get the idea, as so many other games have used it successfully, then Mrs. Derptastic managed to slap 'em with the herpaderp gun. I mean, come on, usual reaction is to shoot if something weird is going down. All the more reason to shoot first, ask questions later...and go against my signature.
Your face is something to shoot, so I will shoot. Don't be offended, I do it to everyone.
