Hi there,
A corpmate just asked me if cloaks took you off d-scan. This spawned a brilliant idea!
How about cloaked ships still appearing on d-scan? This way you could try to hunt them.
It could be taken a bit further by getting unclear scan results, like:
Unknown frigate/cruiser/etc.. <25km/<50km/<100km/etc
Sounds like a nice addition to the gameplay to me! Why active tank bonuses are bad for you |

Ah, I see that you are from Reddit. Welcome. Perhaps you are aware of the "downvote" mechanism featured prominently in that place.
We have no such system here.
How fortunate for you. |

How about they only show up as "Unknown" <250km, and not at all above that range? Why active tank bonuses are bad for you |

Just consider all that blank space at the bottom of the scan 'Unknowns'... happy hunting! ... |

What would be the point of cloaking if you are still on dscan... Maturity, one discovers, has everything to do with the acceptance of not knowing. |

You still wouldn't show up on the overview and be unlockable...
It could also be made so that you don't even show up on d-scan if you're not on grid.
It was just an idea for a new gameplay aspect around cloaking.
And for the record, I'm more often the cloakie than the one bothered by cloakies. Why active tank bonuses are bad for you |

Explains why you thought such a horrible idea was 'brilliant'. |

Are you saying that the slightest chance to get caught would make you dismiss cloaky ships? Why active tank bonuses are bad for you |

It's not getting caught. It's that the moment you get anywhere near your target they are going to know you are comming and warp out. Stealth bombers get hit especialy hard by this as they need time on grid with their target to set up bombing runs. |

Ok, what would be an 'acceptable' range for you then? Why active tank bonuses are bad for you |

None. D-scan is too powerfull to be a cloak hunting tool without invalidating cloaks.

I would be okay with cloaked ships showing up on D-scan if they were within 2,000m of you. |

No and STFU. Learn to use the search button. Read what you find. Or go here.
Oh, and why wouldn't this new revamped d-scan work for non-cloaked ships? Seems like it should.
And yet another thing, game balance. Try to take that into consideration before posting as well.

What would be the point of still being on D-scan? if they were safed up you'd never be able to find them anyways, this idea is kinda pointless. Also the probing part... this kinda breaks the use of the cloak... You know how the cloak works, right? |

yeah, agreed. A terrible idea. Cloaks are the eve equivalent of submarine warfare, undetectable unless you are right on top of them, by then it should be too late. Tiericide is tiers by another name. |
