Le'ts hope for the best, shall we? And before you start circlejerking about the Shadow bug, it was unintended and i believe they have fixed it to look more like Mid-High.
I'm not gonna get my hopes up anytime soon, the no longer completely invisible bit makes no sense they weren't invisible for more than a month unless they made them less visible
This must be some communication mistake. Another explenation is that Dev team completly dont know what is the current state [and look] of the cloak. Which is hard to belive for me. In reality - it could only get better. I cant imagine something worse then casper & dracula cloud mode.
ugh am i reading this right or am i half awake. The cloak effect on low graphics settings will no longer make the infiltrator completely invisible.¨ Last time i checked people played on low settings to see me easier because i look like a visible full modeled character while cloaked.... ...........
i changed mine to olow settings on purpose to see cloakers, in broad daylight i can see them perfectly, dark grey shadow figure, at night its a little tougher but still manageable, so now on low settings i should be able to see them even more clearly ?
Maybe i wasn't clear enough: I know you guys like to mindlessly hump negative thoughts to death, but how about trying to think rationally for once? We will see in less than 2 hours how it works.
*sigh* I knew that posting anything about anything in these forums was just an invite for the circle-jerk. I posted this to let people know that there was being changes to the cloak. I also posted a few days ago a preview of the Wraith. Both threads have descended down to people crying, screaming and kicking like spoiled 9 year olds about how much the devs hate the infiltrator. There is literally nothing that could make this community happy, and every new thread is just an invite for more crybabies to scream. I believe that the Devs are far more competent than 99% of the community here, and that they know what they are doing when they make changes to it. The Shadow bug was unintentional, so im assuming their intentional change will be better.
Read the patch notes. http://forums.station.sony.com/ps2/index.php?threads/server-downtine-03-13-2013.103289/
lol hump negative thoughts to death. I couldn't stop laughing when I saw that. you certainly have a creative way of stating things ztiller
screaming and kicking like 9 year olds? Hyperbole much? People pretty much said: "it will be mediocre as much as the hunter cloak is and will do nothing to cut down the engine noise which is half the reason flash sucks for sneaky class" and predicted that it will take the slot of other useful abilities (radar/turbo). ztiller, seriously, stop being a smug defender of the devs, blessed with superiority complex. if you knew you were flamebaiting, why did you do it? It's not like we couldn't just wait 2hrs in a blissful ignorance and be pleasantly surprised by improvements, should they appear. You come here, post a quote that is contradictory to people's experiences, wave the true problem away with your own words with no official word on this and then ask everybody to be hopeful, when devs did next to nothing to improve infiltrators... ever. i said i am skeptical bacause i don't have much trust in devs, given their less than stellar track record with inf class. Did you see something 9 year old there too?
Yes, Ztiller, you weren't clear enough. You did not clearly point out which way the cloak effect currently is, or clearly indicate that you were aware that the patch note is strange considering the current state of the cloak effect. And instead of mentioning this to people who commented with more or less correct information, you start this (strangely amusing concept of) "circle-jerking" yourself. But please do inform here how the cloak is after the patch. I'm interested to know how it turns out, but can't go test it myself today.
Found your problem. "I believe" + "think rationally" don't generally go hand in hand, you know? if they were as competent as you think they are we wouldn't be going through bubbles every 2 weeks with no chance for proper metagame in sight: libfarmator/lolpod bubble, guided missile bubble, magrider bubble, prowler spam bubble, ohk shotgun bubble, ....
I never said they were perfect. I said they were far more competent than this community. Good =/= better. Regardless, i still believe the SOE devs are good at their job.
and you know that they are better than the community on what basis? because they have programmers who can whip up 3d engine? That's not what makes or breaks the game. This game is built upon, riddled and irrepairably damaged by bad decisions like reclassing at will/no cost or general cheapness and availability of mech. You can't fix it without people screaming bloody murder as real life money already paid for stuff is on the line.
10 minutes of looking at the suggestions by the community. No, the devs are not perfect, as i said. But the community. Wow.
