It's funnier when someone asks in local if you're ever going to uncloak.

Yeeee!

Sure, as long as we can probe them out instead.

Why is every post for changes to game mechanics always heavily in favour of the person proposing them.


This way you could just fire off bombs all day long. wouldn't that be so fantastic


I dont normally troll, but when i do i do it on General Discussion.

I do believe that would be considered an exploit, somebody figured out a way not to appear in local a while back, it's been patched now afaik.

If you want to cloak and not appear in local, try wormholes, nobody appears in local there unless they're daft enough to type something.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

This should be optional. Nothing like making nullbears QQ cause you are cloaked in their system and they can't feel safe anymore.

Suddenly they learn what highsec carebears feel like :)

No one should be allowed a feeling of absolute safety in this game.

When you're cloaked you should be cloaked...

Meh..

I'd need a bigger cargo holdRoll

fyi: Bombs take a lot of cargo space and can't be used in empire space, my ship holds maybe 4 inc launcher

No it should not. AFK Cloaking needs not more buffs but ways to be defeated over time.

I'll just leave this here for the people who think cloakies shouldn't appear in local

Not appearing in local is an exploit, unless you're in a wormhole

Why only low and null? It should do that anywhere. What's the point of being invisible if people still know you're there?

It's only an exploit because it's not a feature, which it would be if cloaking devices removed you from it.

people who whine about local just care about getting more ratter killmails at the expense of balance in the rest of the game in nullsec

Haven't seen one of these threads in awhile, was starting to get worried.

95% of the players are loving EVE, the other 5%? On the forums.
