Even though 90% or more of us play zoomed all the way out until it's just colored squares flying around in clusters. P

in all honesty, the beehive barrier effect should be applied to anything shield related.

Had a quick skim through, is it possible to get an angle from another player's viewpoint? Because I'm assuming that's not what it'll look like if you're watching said person cloak (with the whole honeycomb matrix displayed at the end)... someone had to ask... Blink

Post number five matey.

It's a bit jolty with the sudden snap, but I'm sure it will be smoothed out.

Quoted from Doc Fury: "Concerned citizens: Doc seldom plays EVE on the weekends during spring and summer, so you will always be on your own for a couple days a week. Doc spends that time collecting kittens for the on-going sacrifices, engaging in reckless outdoor activities, and speaking in the 3rd person."

CCP said you will be completely invisible to third parties. Only you will be able to see your cloaked ship.

Is there a dev blog about this, yet? I would love to be able to get the facts about this before jumping to conclusions that this is just cool new eye candy, or in fact, a change in cloaky mechanics.

Thanks!

It appears to be just super-cool effects with no mechanics change

Ahhh.... a fellow TV Tropes user....

In that case, you should understand what I mean when I say I responded to CCP's "Be The Villain" campaign by bouncing periodically between Magnificent Bastard and Affably Evil :)

That moment when you realize the crazy lady with all the cats was right...

If you go AFK as soon as you hit the cloak button, will you still be Shocked by the animation?

You disappear immediately on other players clients. Only you see the effect.

I'll never AFK cloak again.

Won't be able to stop looking at that effect. AK Cloak for me from now on.
