PhDMan	Posted - 2008.12.24 22:23:00 - [1] Cloaks are totally broken, they are way to powerful. Cloaks are awsome for ships that have bonus for them, because they are designed for them, but the ships that arent need more downsides to using them. What i suggest is this, ships that arent desinged for cloaks should have a 5-10 second warp delay after shutting off the cloak. Right now ship are able to get up to speed and uncloak and insta warp, that is complete bullcrap. I also suggest something like it turns off every 10mintues to give people a chance to probe down those cloak afkers. Rework the superweapon known as a cloak please.

Yes, lets turn this sandbox game into a pre assembled Ikea flatpack game.

DrBiologist Caldari W.A.S.P Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.12.24 22:27:00 - [4] Oh, i forgot, players are able to flip on there MWD's and AB's and cloak up, thats bullcrap also _____________ USA! USA! USA!
Vikarion Caldari White Rose Society	Posted - 2008.12.24 22:28:00 - [5] Ooooo...did someone run your widdle gatecamp? Why don't you go run to your mommy and get her to make it all better? Cloaks are fine. Deal with it.
DrBiologist Caldari W.A.S.P Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.12.24 22:28:00 - [6] ugg it changed back? lol o well , ima noob at posting on the forums _____________ USA! USA! USA!
Dirk Magnum Royal Hiigaran Navy	Posted - 2008.12.24 22:29:00 - [7] Edited by: Dirk Magnum on 24/12/2008 22:30:08 You can't instawarp after decloaking unless you get decloaked using a ship with cloaking bonuses. Even a faction cloak reduces your speed to below 75% of your uncloaked speed, and the targeting delay means that person can't fight back for a short while after you decloak them. Shutting off cloaks at intervals doesn't become any less lame of an idea no matter how many times it's suggested. Originally by: Cyrus Brown Fuel for cloaks. This I could at least tolerate even if I don't like it.
DrBiologist Caldari W.A.S.P Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.12.24 22:31:00 - [8] a guy just did it, he insta warped right after he uncloaked _____________ USA! USA! USA!
Dirk Magnum Royal Hiigaran Navy	Posted - 2008.12.24 22:34:00 - [9] Originally by: DrBiologist a guy just did it, he insta warped right after he uncloaked Frigates practically instawarp, especially if they're fitting an Improved Cloak. Also the ships with cloaking bonuses will instawarp. Cruisers and larger though will at least have a second or two at minimum before getting up to speed. Cloaking has never been nerfed since it was introduced AFAIK, and CCP to my knowledge has never said they'd be looking at changing it. That should say very clearly that the cloaking mechanic is working as intended.
Orion GUardian Caldari	Posted - 2008.12.24 22:57:00 - [10] Originally by: DrBiologist a guy just did it, he insta warped right after he uncloaked OH NOES someone escaped your gate camp.....rolleyes I fear that happens everytime if everyone was going to post how "overpowered cloaks are" everytime thta happens forums would collaps. Get over it. the Cloak+MWD trick is a good help against gate camps but tell me: What else could help? Nothing else is as effective and removing it would make lowsec even less appealing. [which are lame anyway]

Cloaking has never been nerfed since it was introduced AFAIK, and CCP to my knowledge has never said they'd be looking at changing it.

AkRoYeR Amarr	Posted - 2008.12.25 01:14:00 - [12] Nice troll post! QFT and quit whining because your gate camp was not setup properly.
Sidus Isaacs Gallente	Posted - 2008.12.25 01:34:00 - [13] Originally by: DrBiologist a guy just did it, he insta warped right after he uncloaked OMG! A frig wapred fast! Try it in a BS and you will see that it does ot work that way. Cloaks are not super in anyway, its very handy on recons of course, buton other ships? Nope, will only help you hide. So its far far from a "weapon". Besides the targetting delay and scan res penalty it already have, along with outrageous CPU use, makes it not worth whle in general to use one.
Concorduck Gallente	Posted - 2008.12.25 01:35:00 - [14] ¡¡ ----------------------------------------- Originally by: Crumplecorn Contact the CSM about it, voting themselves into disbandment wouldn't be pushing the boundaries of absurdity for them.

Sidus Isaacs Gallente	Posted - 2008.12.25 01:39:00 - [16] Originally by: An Anarchyyt Covert Ops ships are clearly the most powerful class of ships in Eve. Not really. They got some EWAR stuff, yeah, but no real dps. They work great with a gang, but not solo.

Not really. They got some EWAR stuff, yeah, but no real dps. They work great with a gang, but not solo. Your pretty wrong. They can warp instantly, they all get damage bonuses, they are near unable to catch, they can immediately call all kinds of help. They are severly in need of numerous nerfs.

They are good, I will give you that. But far from the most powerful. Great scouts, and great gang ships, and they can bring in frinds quickly. But not really overpowerd, they are not an iWin button.

My 0.0 drake is cloakless because I don't have the CPU to fit one unless I remove some of my tank or drop DPS. Both of these options are out of the question so it seems to me that cloaks are fine considering that I can't fit them due to CPU needs and on top of losing tank or DPS I would also lose scan which is also a big factor on ships that aren't designed for cloaks. Go cry somewhere else.
Khemul Zula Amarr Black Plague. Kraftwerk.	Posted - 2008.12.25 02:33:00 - [22] Originally by: Dirk Magnum Cloaking has never been nerfed since it was introduced AFAIK, and CCP to my knowledge has never said they'd be looking at changing it. That should say very clearly that the cloaking mechanic is working as intended. Well they did nerf it once, but they didn't mean too. The couple weeks of the "you're cloaked but everyone can still lock and shoot you" bug. Lost a t2 fit Pilgrim over that one (back when cloaks were expensive). ------ I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it.

This I could at least tolerate even if I don't like it. mwd + 500% speed, cloak -75% speed. oh and 1+1=3. ps. shutting off cloaks at intervalse is still a lame idea.

True. I didn't really consider the MWD + cloak + decloak = instawarp bit. To revise my previous statement I could also tolerate a cloak mechanic change where it would be impossible to activate the cloak while a MWD cycle is running.

Editing out my last post since I read further this time Yeah.. fuel for cloaks on ships without bonuses only if that's the way people want to do it. That or make it all ships to screw over those nasty AFK-cloakers that lurk about Still don't like the idea 100% ------------ Originally by: Nexus Kinnon I could outgay you even without my pink tutu. >.>

Are you sure that would be fun?
