I've noticed every time I'm on there's at least one player abusing the predator's cloak. 
 

Much like hellfire missiles and EOC mines, the cloak offers yet one more thing to exploit for "easy" kills.

 

 

To the powers that be, I implore you to take a look at the sniper's cloak in Killzone 2. 

The way it works is based on the sniper's movement. When the cloak is activated, the sniper is completely cloaked while standing still. However, if he moves, the cloak becomes partially active (random parts of the sniper are exposed). So he's still cloaked but just a bit easier to see while moving.

 

I really think the predator's cloak would be a little more balanced if it worked this way. Invisibility is a HUGE advantage. Never mind being able to see through walls. (I think seeing through walls should be its own ability for a different mech entirely. But that's just me.)

I didn't even know that. Kind of defeats the purpose of a cloak. But then again somewhat balances it, I guess. Hard to say. 

 

And now that you bring that up, the Vytro can probably afford to maintain its cloak while moving simply because it's not capable of the damage output that a predator can do. Plus the Vytro can't see through walls like the predator, right?

 

Also, the infiltrator might be balanced the way it is just because it has less health.

 

 

 

What blows my mind most about "skillfire" missiles is that everyone KNOWS how OP they are. I always hear them talking about it before/after matches. Yet people STILL spam them and run their mouths about how "good" they are -.-

Considering the predator can utilize the cloak to GUARANTEE  hits and significant amounts of damage, there IS a problem with the cloak.
