lets face it, av is a joke and the jihad jeep is the most viable tactic against tanks.
I don't think its fair with how powerful tanks are that they are able to shoot me before I make impact so I am requesting LAV cloaks to make this weapon king of the hill vs tanks.
this game makes me sad....

Vehicle cloaks will eventually probably be a thing, but it's probably not something that'd be good to introduce now. And as vehicle modules aren't vehicle specific, do you really want to unleashed cloaky HAVs on the world right now?
The big thing about introducing vehicle cloaks will probably be forcing them to be on a specific black ops variant. So say, your black ops derpship can fit a cloak, but it's weaker in other respects.
I'd like to be your CPM1 candidate

cloaked hav's cant shoot... so yes I wouldn't mind... but a cloaked lav with remotes on its hood certainly can kill and would keep tankers looking over their shoulder

As both dropsuits (smaller than vehicles) and spaceships (larger than vehicles) can both cloak, vehicle cloaks is really just a matter of time. But it comes down to balance and game design. If vehicles ever switch to a capacitor model, like spaceships in EVE, a cloaked vehicle would be very crippled coming out of cloak until it's capacitor regenerated.

You are most likely correct, black ops dropship with a cloak would be awesome cool though

This is actually developing into a really good thread on "cloaking".
I am against Cloaking of any kind, and have always been against it in previous games. I think it's a fantasy toy that was inspired in players by the Romulans in Star Trek, and has always become a nuissance toy that gives the user-player satisfaction pestering the opponent players, or gives the user-player an upper hand at increasing her kill-rate without risking her life in an open fight.... but DOESN'T give the user any solid means of improving her winning a match. It's never been regulated in a game to become an honorable "tool" for overthrowing an adversary and winning a match.
BUT.... I am hoping Dust can introduce cloak-equipment for the individual in a way that finally makes a cloak a useful tool for winning battles, not just toy that players annoy you with.
I don't want cloaking vehicles to be provided to us as a way of giving new powers to our IDVs (Improvised Detonation Vehicle...please let's stop spreading the j-jeep stuff---it's out of jargon with the game)------because I don't want IDVs to become our IRREPLACEABLE way of dealing with the goofy HAV problem we are having. I know, that sounds all twisty-brained. I mean this: We need to hold out, and continue to complain about the HAV problem until it gets a proper long-term fix---I'd hate for us to get accustomed to the HAV problem and get too reliant on the explosives-LAV as the Dust-Solution.
I fully enjoy the IDV because it shows players using their noodles to adapt and improvise cool means of destruction in these matches, but if we get new devices to enhance/protect our IDVs, I'd like to see us constantly put at RISK using the IDV, and constantly tempted to find even MORE improvisations in the fight.
RISK is the factor I want to see always running through Dust, like it seems to in Eve Online. Anything that starts to eleviate our anxiety about risking our valueable gear, is a thing I am against! That's one of the reasons I don't like "Cloaks" of any kind---too many players will only use it as a free gift to come over and attack YOU because now there is less risk to THEM losing anything.
I understand and accept the cloaking is not a new technology in New Eden (big ships used it, and RDVs represent "cloaking componentry" being miniatturized/stabalized enough to bring it into a planet's atmosphere... ) Finally, okay, it's been miniaturized enough to make a rudimentary cloak-field for the foot merc. But PLEASE keep it rudimentary.
I'll put up with annoying cloak-boys for now, but PLEASE, no cloak DSs, cloak-HAVs, cloak-Orbital Strikes, cloak-nades, cloak-installations, cloak-CRUs, cloak-... |

I like the term IDV, but I also like jihad jeep, just as we had murder taxi before, it's a funny term, though I agree that its out of step with lore.
I also agree that in dust and some other games cloaks are used as a crutch, but that's only because they aren't implemented correctly, personally I think if your gonna use a cloak there should be a big sacrifice for such a definitive advantage, such as lower ehp (like your a one shot kill) slower movement, or limited fitting capabilities, or maybe all of the above....it certainly shouldn't help you be a slayer, but it should provide, for those skilled in its use, a significant advantage for the cloaked mercs team.
cloaked vehicles would be great imo, but again to use the cloak should mean sacrificing something else in exchange for the advantages that come with the cloak, such as much lower ehp, lower dmg, lower speed, something like this to such a significant degree that the cloak becomes a death sentence to people who don't understand how to make use of its advantages.
that's my 2 cents...thankyou Celesta Aungm for such a thoughtful post.
this game makes me sad....

however i do support your cloak idea. i want one on my tank and drop ship now.

I could say the same thing... if you have to kill infantry with a tank you just suck....
also what if a player doesn't have sp in forges? are you saying everyone must skill in forges? kinda ruins the idea of dust if we must all be the same thing eh?

you're forgetting the tanks would have cloaks too... seems fair right?
and it actually takes skill to jihad jeep... I need to hit them just right or it isn't a ohk... unless its a militia tank... and before they shoot me...

Actually, cloaks are not a fantasy. They are a concept in development, and there are currently materials that have been developed to replicate transparency, or visually distort to appear so.
