Just delete cloaks. Seriously.
I came back to play 1.9 for a few days and it was fun to play again but the HMG-Sentinel/Shotgun Scout plague is still the bane of this game. I miss the focus on gunplay that the pre-cloak patches had. Soon as cloaks hit, this game turned into invisible high-alpha damage cat and mouse warfare.

After getting some requests I did a video of the cloak delay from 3rd person: http://youtu.be/h-jnU96Tif4

Oh...
Ratatti said the decloak animation started before you shoot. Doesn't look like it to me. |

The animation lasts 2 seconds, but the delay is only 1 so if they run simultaneously, the animation will be running for 1 second after the delay ends. Making the delay 2 seconds and animation 1 would fix that. |

Raptor, I think the animation doesn't start until AFTER the put down delay. The tests I've run from 1st person seem to indicate than and are corroborated by the 3rd person tests I've done as well.

On second viewing, you're definitely right. There's no improvement at all from the 0.3 second delay. |

What I find amusing is that CCP claims the cloak is designed more for moving across big distances and not direct combat, yet chose a stupidly short delay between 'decloak' and firing.
EDIT: You know honestly if I was designing it, I'd have one cloak type with a long firing delay but no movement penalty, and then another with a severe movement penalty but shorter delay.

The decloak interferes with the Nova Knife charge, like I'm blocked from charging after decloak and I end up having to tap it for a limp swing before I can start the charge. It's not exactly stealthy, and I assume I'll have to learn to wait on the charge-up, but my pistol worked whilst cloaked.

I found this with the introduction of the cloak, so I don't know if it's a new thing. I've avoided having my cloak up when going for the Knife since the first day.
