poison Diego NECROM0NGERS Caps and Mercs 348	Posted - 2014.03.25 16:48:00 - [1] - Quote This here is a whole new game. When people who dont have gungame just activate cloak in a middle of 1vs1? thats just sad... Cloak was never needed and does not fit any role in dust(maybe NK assassins) I am a scout and Im telling you that I DONT NEED CLOAK!!! EDIT: btw there will be no new-comers now... FIX IT WELCOME TO WORLDofTANKz514

FIX IT I do find it funny that scouts are being killed by..............scouts. Cloaks don't belong in dust just like RE's killing mercs. I have killed so many friendlies who have tried to steal my hacks. Just shoot enemy re's. So funny. Enemy gets all the credit, I get all the laughs. Signed, Sealed, Delivered

Aisha Ctarl Praetoriani Classiarii Templares Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris 4161	Posted - 2014.03.25 17:28:00 - [14] - Quote I did it earlier today. Shotgunned one dude that had spawned on a link, then another spawned. He immediately starting spraying at me with his CR and I cloaked and stood stark still. He couldn't find me, and began spinning in circles trying to hunt me down until his back was fully to me only about 2m away. Uncloak. POING! +50. Yeah the cloak is a funny little thing. I could list the ways how we Amarr are better than you, but your lesser mind wouldn't comprehend it.
Bubba Brown Militaires Sans Jeux 232	Posted - 2014.03.25 17:30:00 - [15] - Quote cloak can be activated in combat with no cooldown after being shot? that seems like an enormous oversight now, if there was a 5 second delay from last being hit before you could activate cloak, that'd be perfect. ditch down a back alley, take a hard left, POOF

Izlare Lenix Arrogance. 271	Posted - 2014.03.25 18:24:00 - [28] - Quote Using the cloak actually takes skills and smarts. It is much more player skill intensive than running a heavy hmg. Using an Hmg heavy is the most mindless thing players can do in this game. Very few heavies, regardless of the weapon they use, actually have skill. Most relay on high hp and high dps to get kills. Gun control is not about guns...it's about control. The only way to ensure freedom is by having the means to defend it.

I would never turn on my cloak in the middle of a fire fight that would get me killed.

What a joke cloaks are, there's no reason to need them, just unskilled ***** scouts complaining their eHP too low because they don't bother to flank or learn tactics. Now scouts don't need to flank or bother playing a stealth role. Fit a cloak, head to frontline, then it on and stand still and wait. That's not a tactic, thats a joke Scouts who need a cloak to be competitive or viable, should love cloaks because they are terrible players. Scouts don't need a cloak to be good, you just need more skill and experience (and apparently SP in dust). Cloaks are a crutch that middle of the road to bad players need to use a scout, while it'll just help the lesser skilled elite... And the scouts who know how to play (and dominated prior to 1.8) will continue too but not cause of the cloak. Get rid of the crutch, scouts don't need it and anyone who thinks they do can go to another class.

Vell0cet SVER True Blood General Tso's Alliance 1234	Posted - 2014.03.25 19:14:00 - [39] - Quote A couple of points: Cloaks are new and everyone wants to try them out (it was the first thing I did). Expect fewer people to run them regularly once the novelty wears off. It's day 1, just keep that in mind. You should be decloaked upon taking damage with some reasonable delay before being able to recloak (someone mentioned 5 seconds, that's probably in the neighborhood). Best PvE idea ever!

That's cookie-cutter class design like PS2. No thanks. CCP did it right, you can run them on anything with an equipment slot, but it will gimp your fit. That allows for interesting and creative fittings. It's day 1 and everyone is trying out the new toy. I expect the cloak to mostly be used by scouts once the novelty wears off. Best PvE idea ever!

However when there are other reds around the reticle doesn't indicate exactly where he is when he does this. So yeah that is a problem. But if you don't think it's cool...

Cloak was never needed and does not fit any role in dust(maybe NK assassins) I am a scout and Im telling you that I DONT NEED CLOAK!!! EDIT: btw there will be no new-comers now... FIX IT The cloaks have a role, look at Killzone, they found a way for the marksmen class, although in Dust it will be different. You won't see all 16 players with cloaks will you, no. I spec to cloak lvl 3 and I only have 2 scouts that will have it. I wont use cloak everytime, I only use it when the time is right. Its very effective for flanking and tactics but if other mercs dont use it well then they will abuse it and thats not good. With TTK on the other hand, Im impressed, now it wont take a heavy to kill 3+ mercs. With my Gallente Heavy, 500 shields and 786 armour with 400+ HMG, I can only take out 2 mercs and thats a huge difference. With all my SP I spec to Caldari scount lvl 5, Gallente scout lvl 3, Gallente Sental heavy lvl 1,and Gallente assault/basic lvl 3. In the end Im satified. The ion pistol is badass. If you run proto gear, prepare to suffer the consequences. You've been warned.

You're reticule will turn red if you pass it over the target. 2. The silhouette of the cloak can still be seen if you have a good eye. 3. The shimmer kicks in when moving and is most apparent in the dark. Caldari Scout will detect even a cloaked scout using only the suit's passive scan. I just saw my brother kill a cloaked scout trying to sneak up on him but the enemy's chevron showed his position.

It has certainly added a whole new dynamic to the game-play, although now I get pretty paranoid that a Scout is going to decloak behind me with Shotgun in hand I think the only change I would wish to see is if a Scout is cloaked and I shoot them, it should deactivate the cloak. I am not trying to be harsh, but the fact is if you got seen and I make contact...you failed. A fair trade when you can sneak up behind me and one shot me in the head or Nova-Knife me. With that change, everything would feel balanced IMO. Regardless, I am happy to see Scouts find a viable role in the game. Many a Proto Caldari Scout has had their way with me already.

Why? New Eden has cloaks available, and though they have steep fitting requirements, there's no reason that you couldn't build cloaking ships on types that a casual observer might be surprised. Dust exists in this universe, so take your preconceptions of what cloaking should do, and hold it. Why don't you actually attempt to play the game.

LOL i have yet to see a commando with one. i have see assaults with them, but it looks like they could only fit a standard cloaking device and a primary weapon. their HP looked around just that of the base HP, so they likely had little, if any, modules. Fact is that a scout LVL 5 gets 75% less Pg/CPU cost of cloaking devices. the PG/CPU that a cloaking device takes up on a scout suit of its same tier is comparable to equipping remote explosives of one tier to a suit of that same tier.

Henchmen21 Planet Express LLC 807	Posted - 2014.03.25 22:35:00 - [60] - Quote 1 match in... I was just fiddling around in a cloak. Was killed twice while moving cloaked by another cloaked scout I never saw. Spent a lot of the map just keeping an eye out for the shimmer, think I saw it once. Eventually I tried to see what I could accomplish while cloaked. Now you see me, rounder a corner and cloak and wait for them to walk right up to your shotgun barrel worked nicely. Just standing in the middle of a fire fight and taking out reds once they were distracted seemed to work well too. Eventually i was just like F it and walked right up into a crowed of three people and nobody seemed to notice till I shotgunned someone. Seems like a lot of fun to those who are cloaked but quite frustrating to anyone who doesn't have one. Now I just have to decide between Gal scout (I have a dragonfly BPO) and a Minm Scout. CCP you better nail 1.8, as it stands 1.7 is a total disaster. Henchmen21: Infantry Gotyougood Ufkr: Vehicles
