What is your opinion of a 0.33 second delay?
To put this in perspective, this means that when I shoot a Cloaked Scout they will not be able to defend themselves for 0.33 seconds.
0.33 Seconds should be plenty of time to kill a Scout if you manage to hit it. And if you canGÇÖt hit a Scout it is not because of the Cloak.

And if you canGÇÖt hit a Scout it is not because of the Cloak. Since when did the cloak not make you difficult/impossible to see? Or are you suggesting I cut the life of my TV in half by cranking up the brightness/contrast to ridiculously out-of-spec settings?
Maybe it is because I have an eye for detail, but I have never had any trouble seeing cloaked Scouts, and I have done nothing to alter the color balance on my TV. (I paid a tech $75 to setup the color balance just right, so I am not going to touch it.) I can usually even pick out the shimmer (like looking through hot air) when they are standing still.

I actually grabed an older 1080p monitor I had lying around and hooked it up to a spare PS3, and with some adjust ments to contrast (way too high) and brightness (also too high) I can see scouts like chritmas lights indoors/low-light, but now outdoors I can't see them because the background blooms. If I adjust for seeing them outside, I cannot see them inside. My properly calibrate main TV though has exceptional detail and the effect isn't very noticable at all in a lot of situations. Judge made an awesome video on the matter that you should check out. It is also quite incontrovertable proof that the "use your eyes" and "git gud" arguments are B.S.
Well Cloaked Scouts certainly donGÇÖtGÇÖ light up like Christmas trees on my screen, I watch for very subtle clews. I mean when they are standing still we are talking about a very slight curve on a distant wall that should be strait; the small optical distortion as you look through them. Stuff like that.
If I know there is a Scout in the area and I canGÇÖt locate them (I canGÇÖt always) I swing my weapon back and forth to see if my reticle turns red.

If Scouts and Assault were reversed on the current end of that graph, I would think we were right where we need to be.
I think if the balance is done right the popularity of suits should go:
Assault
Scout
Logi
Sentinel
Commando
The Logi number is just slightly lower than I think it should be right now, but not much lower.
