Official word is that the cloak is a "Utility" not an Equipment, even though it fills the same slot. |

PROBLEMS WITH CLOAKING:
1. Exploits. The obvious one has been fixed, but I've still been seeing people who can stay cloaked indefinitely while they have their weapon drawn. Firing decloaks them, but not until AFTER they take their first shot, preventing their victim from having the audible warning they should be getting. Unless you fire, no amount of time passing will cause a glitched player to decloak. This is also a pretty big flaw in the cloak which needs addressing.
2. Volume of decloak sound. Even once the glitches are fixed, the decloak sound, while loud enough for the cloaked player, is quieter than it should be fore other players nearby, and increasing the volume is a buff I would support thoroughly.
3. Shimmer. This isn't a problem in and of itself, but when talking about the cloak, CCP said movement would cause a shimmer effect that varies in intensity based on how fast you're moving. That is clearly NOT the case. It's a binary light shimmer when still vs. high visibility shimmer when moving at ANY speed. Crouch walking should EITHER use the no movement shimmer OR a slight increase, then walking normally should make you more visible than crouch walking, and sprinting should have the level of shimmer any movement produces now. |

How about you CPM get us some new game modes and maps or the rest of the racial vehicles Number of threads generated a daily suggests otherwise... And the majority if I was to use such base means wants cloaks deleted. Also I am not a game designer; nor product owner, I cannot dictate development energy.
There are a lot of "remove cloak" and "nerf cloak" threads, but there are almost as many "cloak is fine" threads as well. And the discussions in most threads, regardless of which side it's supporting, is FAR from one-sided in almost every case. There are a lot of people saying the cloak is fine in the threads where the title suggests otherwise.
For the most part, people DON'T come to a game forum to say "This newly added item doesn't need work" even when they feel that way. The people who have problems with it show up saying "this needs a buff" or "this needs a nerf", and the rest just keep playing. The number of "cloak is fine" threads should be a pretty good indication that cloaks ARE fine, and that the people saying that are here because of problems they've had with OTHER aspects of the game. |
