Bug or Hax?

The reason I was initially suspicious is because the player with cloak was cloaked for a much longer period of time than I expected cloak to work (we had a protracted engagement that actually seemed to extend past an entire minute and he was cloaked the whole time).

Remember people, if you are suspect please provide possible evidence.

2 screenshots with a time stamp can make all the difference. You can add time stamps to most screenshots in the preference menu of whatever program you are using for it.

I was engaged with what I thought was a sharpshooter, only to be rattled in the face with a Vulcan from the beserker class.

You can also choose between the two different model part sets for a class of mech. You can be an Assault mech with the Civ (sharpshooter? memory's fuzzy) model. The model is not an automatic representation of the class you're fighting.

But yes, going back on topic, I've only used the Sharpshooter and Assault classes myself, so I'm not really sure what body shop customisations are on offer for the light and heavy classes, I've only seen the Rookie and Civ parts
I initially presumed that you could use parts from the selection you own, since those are the only options I have, but I haven't earned enough points to buy a heavy or light class to test.

Don't know what's going on with that cloaking, though.

So that one is not a question of what weapons he had with a cloaking mech, but more of whether or not it is possible to cloak a mech with that weapons loadout (or give a cloakable mech those weapons).
I'll admit I'm less sure of the vulcan cannon mech, though. It definitely didn't have the shield arms, but I guess if you can unlock the vulcan for assault or Berserker class then that would fit what I saw and is clearly not a real problem.

I was saying a screenshot wouldn't prove anything. You can't look at a cloaked mech and tell what weapons they have, and you can't look at an uncloaked mech and determine that it can cloak. The only differentiating factor would be the name, which I will not post, because you are not allowed to on the forums

But, to flat out answer, in the current build that most players have available to them, the Sabot Rifle and Slug Rifle have no possible mech combination to allow them to use Cloaking as well.

This is what you saw, man. The Civ and Rookie models are available for either Sharpshooter or Assault. They just start with their default. Like I said, I don't know what's up with the cloaking, but everything else you're reporting is standard behavior and not a bug OR a hack.
