I'm gonna provide a list of easy ways to kill cloaked scouts. Now, some of these may be obvious, but others may not. I don't want any hate for this post, just to help everyone out. Please list other methods in a reply below.
Now first off my go to tactic.
The Spray and Pray.
- I often use this tactic with a weapon like an SMG, but any high rate of fire weapon could do the trick. Basically, just spray bullets all over the place, this scares the scout into
A) Decloaking to try to fight
B) Running away.
C) You kill the cloaked scout
Those are the three common outcomes with the Spray and Pray tactic.
Double/triple teaming the scout.
One of the best ways to kill to kill a cloaked scout, is to outnumber him. If a squad mate or two shows up at your rescue, that scout would be stupid to try and fight. This will result in the death of the scout, or the scout retreating the area.
Do not chase!
Chasing after a cloaked scout never ends well for the pursuer. A good scout will lead you to his teammates, or set up a trap for you. I know i often wait with remote explosives set up, the second you're around the corner, boom! Motto, don't chase cloaked scouts. It will only end bad.
I'll add in ones that i see in the replies if i like them.
If you run cloak and shotgun, you're a scrub
Don't brick tank that scout, come on, get good.

-No need to spray and pray. Just aim and shoot as normal.
It's not always that easy, especially in a tight hallway.

what i mean is that often times they will be jumping and sprinting around you, not just in a straight line making them an easy target.

Hitting a rapid moving blur on your screen accurately is easier said then done
