Look at this:



It's so simple, but very good looking. We need a better texture for the test arena map. People don't like it's current texture at all, especially when it comes to playing against a cloaked mech, as it's very hard to spot it.


Please anyone from the design team, that exact same pattern with the exact same color in the video will look absolutely amazing on the test arena map.


I'm sure that it won't take more than an hour to design it, and adding it to the game shouldn't be a big of a problem. Then with a simple patch, it could make the test arena map a lot better.

It is, but obviously, you're able to spot it if you have a fine vision. But when the background is totally white, you can almost see nothing. Obviously you can notice the enemy because of the footsteps producing some dust and all that

But there's no denying that, compared to other maps, that texture is just so bad.


Edit; and also there's no doubt that neither you, nor aregon play enough in that map. While I spent hours and hours playing in there.

Being that it is a test and that only people with private servers have access to it, that would be the case. The texture looks very similar to Valkyrie and it wouldn't surprise me if all test maps would have that texture. At least for a short time the visual aspect of the Infil cloak actually did something worth while.

Please, I can hardly see out of one of my eyes and cloaking is a fracking joke to spot in hawken. You can clearly see the outlines of the mech even when it isn't moving. The only times that it works is at distance and even then depending on the textures behind the mech it could still be easily spotted. I think it is great that there is a map that cloaking is actually very useful, to bad that map has no textures on it.

I'd rather see this map from the video in Hawken - it looks so well designed T_T
