The way cloaks were intended to work is fine.
The way they actually function in game due to bugs makes them overpowered. One such bug was demonstrated in Judge's video in case 4.
When several cloak users on the forums claim that these bugs don't exist and that cloaks are perfectly fine, I can't help but think that they've turned cloaks into their crutch. After all, they are insisting that their toy which is broken in a manner that favors them isn't broken. -_-
As for the whole scouts brick tanking, that's another issue I cover in the link below.

Or the shot at the end where Judge points to the wrong part of the screen to try and prove the cloaked Scout is invisible? Case 3 was actually harder to spot the cloaked player in, and that was a situation where an uncloaked player would be almost invisible too. No. When I say case 4, I mean Case 4. And when I say bug in reference to software, it means something not working as intended. After watching it, did you notice anything? Or rather a lack of mechanic kicking in that makes the cloaked merc shimmer for running at full speed? That bug?
Quote:And what do you call it when someone who's never equipped a cloak before is defending the cloak? Am I relying on it as a "crutch" too? By not using it, and frequently killing cloaked and freshly-decloaked players and only rarely being ACTUALLY caught off-guard (almost every instance of which has been my own mistake). Honestly? I'd call you an idiot for defending bugs. Don't be upset, you asked. Normally when something's not working as intended, people want to fix it. I don't know. Maybe you're one of those cartoon ostrich that burry their head in the sand whenever a problem arises, insisting nothing is wrong? By the way, even real ostriches aren't that stupid.
You falsely assume I'm advocating for a cloak nerf; I'm not. I simply want bugs resolved. Just like how I advocated for fixing the active vehicle armor rep bug that never got fixed in the past. If the bugs that plague the cloak effected the cloak in a way that was unfavorable to the cloak user, I would still be advocating to fix it.
Quote:Is that one of the "buff Assaults" threads? I hope so, because Assaults do need a buff. Scouts are fine. No, it's one of those here's a problem with medium frames and what we should do to address it.
Although if you actually bothered to click the link, you would've known. Which begs the question, why did you even have ask?
