this is a very GOOD change back to how it used to work.
nothing more satisfying than decloaking a target in your cloaked ship and killing them. nothing.


This. I honestly don't know why they ever changed it to begin with

Rip w-space? We the people of w-space use cloaky ships(not stealth bombers) in unison way to much for this to be anything but terrible. CCP is either blatantly or ignorantly ingoring the players in w-space. We use cloaking ships in fleets on a DAILY BASIS, its part of LIVING IN WH-SPACE. WE DONT HAVE LOCAL FOR A REASON!. You have to understand this is just to treat symptoms of a null sec cancer. Your talking about trying to fix one thing while creating a **** TON of new problems for a group not even remotely associated with the problems that plague null-sec!

it seems this Billy is not enough Hardcore...

If you could see the location of cloaked ships in your fleet I wouldn't mind using the old decloak tricks but without that I would prefer that it stays as is.

The wishlist is pretty much complete...

And that is the reason why you fit a gun on your scanfrig. Nothing funnier than 2 covertops decloaking each other and you blow him up in an epic fight that takes ages Twisted

Will make setting up blackops much harder again, but overall very little effect on wormholespace. Had it for years, never was a problem.


I ******* love solo covops battles. So funny and the very definition of cripple fights

INB4 CCP says "Hurrdurr Just because it's on SISI doesnt mean it's gonna be on TQ." I would like to respectfully point towards the completely stupid mass spawn distance changes that was found ON SISI without CCP letting us know, and was only acknowledged after people posted about it, and they made the exact same post there.

Certainly not insurmountable, But not happy if we turn out to be collateral damage once again for yet another nullsec "fix"Sad

This is one of those odd issues that has its benefits and its negatives, but most of us really don't give that much of a damn about it eitherway.

I know the solo guy with 8 stealth bomber accounts is mad.. but honestly.. that's probably the only person who is mad.

If I could see my corp mates and know where they are stealthed, that'd be a nice fix to it.. but in the end.. doesn't matter for us in the short or longrun.

Yaay!!!!

Would be nice to limit the power of one person's bombers fleets...

I certainly don't mind returning to the old ways...
I remember when I was chasing some target cloaked, approaching it slowly from 20km away, then suddenly uncloaking another cloak hunter on the same target. That appeared less than 2km from me.. we both darted out, and warped away asap.... the target must have been like 'wtf just did happen' Big smile

Not to mention that, if you jump a bigger number of cloakies at the same time, you can just

EVERYONE CLICK ORBIT THE HOLE AT 30KM

and all would disperse without mutual decloaking. In theory can fail, in practice never did.

I can confirm this is currently on the test server with no official mention from CCP.

Tested:

Cloaked Anathema, Cloaked hound.

Hound warped to the anathema and was NOT decloaked as the hound landed at around 2700m.

The anathema decloaked and re-cloaked to confirm the distance.

The hound then approached the anathema and was decloaked once within range.

Tldr: Cloaked ships now decloak each other when in range.



Getting an official mention on anything negative from CCP is like seeing a ******* unicorn getting ass rammed by sasquatch.

Same, I don't mind going back to how it was before. I see this as a minor change really. And change is not always bad people ;)

Thread locked. The devs looking for feedback on test server changes wouldn't look here for feedback. They'd look in Test Server Feedback, where there is a thread about this. Please post there to have your feedback heard.
