Is it just me, or is it odd that a biomass can stop you from cloaking? Its trash in space, that is always left where it lays... That along with wrecks, cargo cans, and secure cans make it nearly impossible to travel "safely".
Not sure if this issue has been addressed, but i think its complete BS that I just lost a recon, cause of a biomass.

I've never had a problem with that game mechanic.

I lost my first helios to this. I jumped through the gate had a 20 man gate camp on it, up goes the dictor bubble. So I should just take off and fly through dictor bubble cloaked and warp off right? Wrong
One stupid frozen corpse 450m off the side of my ship. That was the end of that ship.

So, I'm supposed to jump into a camped system... Then manually fly, uncloaked around a corpse... with more than 25 pilots camping.
Constructive critism, or shut your crap spewing pie hole... Thanks

Leaving biomass and wrecks at a gate camp is one of the best ways to stop cloaked ships. It does make sense from a RP point of view; flying a cloaked ship into biomass would cause the biomass to move, allowing your scanners to pick up the ship that hit it.
And while recon ships increase your chances of flying through a gate camp, no ship is invincible in 0.0. A twenty five man gate camp really should be able to kill you ... twenty five to one odds are very stacked against you.
Biomass and wrecks uncloaking ships is fine the way it is.

You're clearly a moron. Its not like I expected my ship to beat the 25 man gatecamp solo... I merely find it amazing, that I cant get away from said gatecamp, with the most advanced "covert" ship in game... CCP's input on this would be gravely appreciated.

You can easily add everything in the game to your overview to display it. Next time learn to set up your overview correctly and stop whining. There is more than enough of it flying around here. If you don't know what keeps you from cloaking then go to empire and test it. Geeesh it's really not that hard to figure out.

all i heard was.... me wants super ship that can never be uncloaked.
Don't expect CCP to do anything about it, i don't really want them to anyway.

sigh, as sooooooooo many other things in eve it is an EXPLOIT!!!!!!!!!!! an unintended feature = EXPLOIT!! (look it up and shut you mouth).
and thereby should be banneble or fixed ..

At what point did CCP ever say that keeping biomass/wrecks near a gate was an exploit? As long as you aren't jettisoning the matter in space then it can't be considered an exploit.

Not an exploit.
Cloaked ships within 2000 meters of anything in space become uncloaked.
The best way to deal with cloaked ships is to make sure they can not cloak.
Put two and two together, develop a tactic.
An Exploit is finding something in the games mechanics that is not working the way it should be and abusing it. This is working as intended.

I bet the biomass was also in a recon trying to sneak past and came too close to something
And to quote an ancient Minmitar leader.....

EDIT: BIOMASS being a corpse..
Ummm... yes biomass can stop you from cloaking. As well as the other garbage people leave behind (GSC's, wrecks, noob ships). Is there some strange metaphysical reason it shouldn't?
So, unless you can figure out what it is... try adding it to your overview, as well as large collidable objects. It will make you time a bit easier on getting through these debris fields.

It's not an exploit leaving anything, including jetisoned cans around to make people uncloak.
It is a tactic, a game mechanic, and you go directly to counter people who cloak. Too bad for the cloakers, but noone is invincible.
As for dropping alot of stuff into a system to make it lag and cause oponents to lose ships this way, that's exploitable and banable offence.

If this is an exploit, then so is every other basic gameplay mechanic. Certain mechanics work in favour of your survival, some work against, depending on your circumstances. Just because it's against you at this moment does not make it an exploit.
"He's pre-aligning so that he can warp away faster - Exploit!"
"Hey, he's repping his armour, now I can't kill him - Exploit!"
"My ship ran into space junk and de-cloaked - Exploit!"
Ridiculous.
