I haven't been able to get in the game yet, however I have a question on cloaks and visibility for a challenge idea.
Does the nanohive bubble animation make cloaked soliders more visible, less visible, or present no change in visibilty from a 3rd person presepective?Additionally, please test this with multiple hives spammed in a single zone.
The clone is standing on top of a hive or cluster of hives in this context.
The first player to show video of these results will be awarded 35 tickets in my lottery.

I really don't care about tickets, but I'm also too lazy to switch from watching SAO to Dust right now...
As far as I can remember, seeing people cloaked inside my nanohives did make them a bit less visible just as they affect players normally.

After getting my hands on the build today I did notice CCP has lightened the particle effect of nanohives, which in turn limits the 'haze' when stacking multiple hives in a single zone.

Its hard to see anyone in a room of 25 nanohives/ spawners That's where a Caldari Scout might really shine if they can spot out the direction of where you're facing on the mini-map.

This also qualifies as a film request. Which means it awards a film credit. 21984 tickets are up for grabs to the player holding the most film credits https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=1985733#post1985733

Other than the shine of the 125 war points just waiting for your grenade anyway. I'm not sure that hiding in the middle of a target zone for AOE weapons is a great plan for a scout really. |

Hide in a field of enemy hives. The cloak shimmer and the cluster cloud are both pale blue. Even if enemy notices something it's doubtful they'd hunt you, just assuming you are friendly if in their room. Then pick a target with his back to you.

Hmmm.... I must try this. I have a friend who can record it. If he records it and I show it, do I get credit?
