Sarge Misfit Excelsior Unlimited 0	Posted - 2013.08.09 17:54:00 - [1] - Quote Does a cloaked ship get listed on the Overview?
Archibald Thistlewaite III 125	Posted - 2013.08.09 17:55:00 - [2] - Quote No.
Unsuccessful At Everything The Troll Bridge 5639	Posted - 2013.08.09 17:58:00 - [3] - Quote The Boogeyman doesn't appear on your overview either. Sadly, no one ever calls for the nerfing of The Boogeyman. *Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?*

The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the ho's and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!' and I'll look down, and whisper 'Hodor'.

Sadly, no one ever calls for the nerfing of The Boogeyman. That will be my next campaign after Frank is released from rehab. Additionally, they do not show up on combat probes either. You'll see the pilot in local, but unless you move within 2km of him, you'll never know he is there. My twitch stream to help new players: http://www.twitch.tv/biohazrd51 Say NO-áto CCP-EA. -áRehabilitate Frank!!
Herzog Wolfhammer Sigma Special Tactics Group 3287	Posted - 2013.08.09 18:57:00 - [6] - Quote Even docked ships don't appear on the overview. The overview is broken.

The overview only works between 9 & 5, then it goes home to his wife and kids. And stealth is fine, no nerfs needed. My friend Harvey the rabbit says he can see them while cloaked, but I think he's making it up! Carrots good for eyes.. pfft! Eve is like the way that gun law equals a lot of deaths followed by a lot of people being real nice to each other, well, it would be if we all had our names and address posted on our character info! I wonder just how many players would still act like assholes? Fly safe, and lock your back door tonight!

Solstice Project I'm So Meta Even This Acronym 3540	Posted - 2013.08.09 22:23:00 - [9] - Quote What point would the cloak have, if the ship's still visible on the overview ? :(
Death Reign EntroPrelatial Industria Here Be Dragons 1	Posted - 2013.08.09 22:32:00 - [10] - Quote Still couldn't lock it. You would just know its on grid.

masternerdguy Inner Shadow C.L.O.N.E. 1283	Posted - 2013.08.10 00:21:00 - [12] - Quote A year ago I decided to try this whole AFK cloaking thing out. I got a nemesis and cloaked up in fountain, TEST space. At first the ratters were docked up, but I left my client running for 16 hours and eventually they could no longer resist their greedy urges to rat. I killed one of their ratting drakes in a haven along with some of their haulers doing PI. Then they got all cautious again and I recloaked. I went to bed. I woke up 4 hours later for some reason and my computer screen was still on. I got really lucky, because right as I woke up someone asked in local if I was still cloaked up. I got up and said "Nope" in local and went back to sleep. AFK cloaking is fine, it's you that are terrible. Things are only impossible until they are not.
Job Valador Super Moose Defence Force 175	Posted - 2013.08.10 06:20:00 - [13] - Quote overview needs a buff me thinks "The stone exhibited a profound lack of movement."
Solstice Project I'm So Meta Even This Acronym 3553	Posted - 2013.08.10 07:47:00 - [14] - Quote My overview, my overview It has a really ugly hue The colours are no easy find because i am so colour-blind.

Boat tried an organized campaign to do that, but it was not necessary since blackops and the like already go around afk cloaking and ganking all over the bad guys. There are no goons. The goons' 0.0 dream is over.

Herzog Wolfhammer Sigma Special Tactics Group 3294	Posted - 2013.08.10 22:35:00 - [16] - Quote Has anybody ever tried dousing for a cloaked ship? Supposedly they had people finding submarines that way.

Supposedly they had people finding submarines that way. I routinely sit in front of my monitor with bent clothes hangars. I haven't quite managed to nail a cloak ship yet, but I can feel myself getting closer every day. Rifterlings Corporation is now recruiting pilots for lowsec solo & small gang PvP. Visit our website at www.rifterlings.com or join our in game channel weflyrifters to speak to a recruiter.
Sarge Misfit Excelsior Unlimited 0	Posted - 2013.08.13 01:35:00 - [18] - Quote Thanks, all. Was sick or I'd have responded sooner. I figured cloaked ships wouldn't show on overview, but I've seen some dumb things on various MMOs over my life. Like a radar/minimap that shows markers for snipers , so I thought I better double check
CMD Ishikawa Center for Advanced Studies Gallente Federation 28	Posted - 2013.08.13 02:46:00 - [19] - Quote There are a lot of guides you can find using google search that will explain you a lot better the cloaking mechanics than the answers you'll get here with a question like yours. Later you'll understand this.
Regan Rotineque Rl'yeh Interstellar Ltd. Mildly Sober 157	Posted - 2013.08.13 02:57:00 - [20] - Quote New with Odyssey 1.1 Overview will now cost 5,99 isk/minute Additional troll charges will apply to see afk cloaked ships

Katran Luftschreck Royal Ammatar Engineering Corps 1590	Posted - 2013.08.13 03:53:00 - [21] - Quote Can CONCORD detect a cloaked ship? I ask because I recently found out the hard way that Blockade Runner "immune to scanners" thing doesn't apply to CONCORD (or specifically NPC customs ships), so now I'm wondering if cloaking would be a waste of time as well?

Plastic Psycho Necro-Economics 274	Posted - 2013.08.13 03:58:00 - [22] - Quote Poasting in a stealth "Nerf the Boogeyman" thread. Herzog Wolfhammer wrote: Has anybody ever tried dousing for a cloaked ship? Supposedly they had people finding submarines that way. About as effective as most means of finding Boats. Only ASW platform that really scared me were the Orions.

This is true, but does a cloak help you get past the Customs Officers with contraband in your cargo? I think that's what Katran meant to ask.

I figure, it never hurts to ask, some of the responses are funny and, if someone does troll, well, I don't mind doing a little troll hunting every once in awhile

This is true, but does a cloak help you get past the Customs Officers with contraband in your cargo? I think that's what Katran meant to ask. 1) Cloaking will not prevent Customs Officers to detect contraband in your cargo 2) Cloaking will prevent Customs Officers to catch you 2) You will be still be loosing faction standing This means that if you jump gate to gate with contraband cargo, you will get the warnings "You are transporting illegal goods", you will get standing loss for that, but your ship will not be caught or destroyed.
Barbara Nichole Cryogenic Consultancy 415	Posted - 2013.08.13 06:15:00 - [27] - Quote Hey, how come I can't see ships in my overview that are more than 500km away?! fix this. I should be able to see everyone in my overview at all times...... -á-á- remove the cloaked from local; free intel is the real problem, not-á "afk" cloaking-á- [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a208/DawnFrostbringer/consultsig.jpg[/IMG]
Archibald Thistlewaite III 153	Posted - 2013.08.13 07:35:00 - [28] - Quote If Chribba is cloaked in a system, will he show up on the overview?

Perhaps if Chribba was hauling illegal contraband a message would display for everyone? See Bio for isk doubling rules. -áIf you didn't read bio, chances are you helped fund those who did.
