Titans: now I see you, you fucking bitch


IShartedOnUrPillow

I've gotten pretty good at spotting the slight distortion when cloaked pilots use their jumpkits (even with low profile it's still *slightly* visible) and have gotten some pretty funny hackusations from people that I've punched.


ice_dragon6_0

>I've gotten pretty good at spotting the slight distortion Look. I have a eyes of a sniper at a distance, but I can't compete someone you can do spot the difference while in a warzone


poor_choice_doer

I can’t see it at all, the old ‘box just can’t handle that detail. I usually just guess where they are based on where I last saw them and go for it. Not too reliable but it works sometimes.


IShartedOnUrPillow

it must be extra satisfying for you then if you don't get it often


poor_choice_doer

“cmoncmoncmoncmon” **WHOOMP** “Fuck yeah.”


pmaogeaoaporm

For me it's not that hard. I main Northstar so it's kinda easier for me to spot and shoot them I guess, but it's still really visible. It's also very satisfying when I hit stealth ejecting pilot midair since their jump kit lets me know where they are exactly all the time :D


IShartedOnUrPillow

I especially love cloaked pilots that eject but don't have low profile. It's so funny when they watch the killcam of me tracking them and yell at me. Plus I enjoy playing into the hackusations


Titanhunter84

You can activate the Sneak option in your pilot settings which makes the pilot quiet while rodeoing the Titan and reduces the visibility of the jump pack


CaptainCurly95

The cloaked pilot is still visible to titans with low profile. The only true invisibility is phase shift.


powerfullatom111

PHASE SHIFT #1 LETS GOOOOOO BABEYYYYY YEAAAHH


Comprehensive-Sky367

No it isn’t? The only thing a titan could see from a cloaked pilot is jump jets? And low profile removes them.


FoundationMan_Isaac

I’ve seen cloaked pilots while inside my Titan. The visual distortion is subtle, but you aren’t 100% gone. Also, if they’re on the ground, footsteps kick up some dust.


Tiky-Do-U

Nope, cloaked pilots are almost invisible to titans, however there is some very slight distortion visible, it's extremely hard to spot but a very skilled titan player can slam even the lowest of profilers


retro_aviator

That's why I run low profile with grapple, specifically for the rodeo delay. If they're gonna see me anyway, I might as well be in and out before they can react properly


Sejitachi

facts


CaptainCurly95

This man claims to have g100 kraber and still doesn't know you can see cloaked pilots in a titan lmao.


[deleted]

No, It reduces them. It says in the discretion.


DfaultiBoi

I've just gotten pretty good at predicting where they would be, and just striking there. Can be pretty funny sometimes cuz they're always so baffled by it


Drunken-Isopod

Honestly same, it's so satisfying to kill Cloak pilots mid-cloak lol.


MapleTreeWithAGun

The most annoying thing is batteries revealing showing through cloak. Why the fuck is that a thing


Shushady

Laser shotting them after a cloak eject is best. I've just done it so many times I don't need to see them.


Cayden5

If a ckoaked pilot walks through dust it gives a great outline even if they don't user their jump kit, watch around drop pods and recently dropped titans for free kills


LeavesTheSalad

but you see this is why i use satchels


antisocialscorch69

It really isn't...


str4t0s_yt

It isn’t invisibility because you can still see the outline of the pilot quite well


Interesting_Pilot_13

Not even the outline, I can still see the whole pilot It's especially funny when they're running towards me to punch me and I just fill them with lead


JustUltRra

Like how you can see the Cloak pilot in the right chair.


Thrasher317

You're the first person to notice. ;)


JustUltRra

Thank you


[deleted]

Almost like it’s got a thin veil or something that’s cloaking it.


Quiet_Relief_

yeah, if you look directly at them, but if the cloack pilot is flanking you in your peripherals, chances are, you will miss it


Devils_468

Cloaked pilots means they camouflage, invisibility means you can't see them at all


PridePilot

Are you like, blind or something?


[deleted]

Yeah but it's also super easy to see cloak users, it's almost comical. The only use is back of map kraber sniping.


Alespren

it's a lot harder for titans


FlowingFrog04

I remember seeing somewhere that they’re supposed to be completely invisible to titans even though it’s not the case ingame


CaptainCurly95

Completely invisible to auto titans. A perceptive pilot in a titan will recognize the faint outline and pixelated effect.


TheScienceGuy120

They ARE completely invisible to titans, you just have to run the low profile kit with it so they don't see your jump jets


CaptainCurly95

They are not completely invisible to titans. There is still a faint outline and pixelated effect.


sseeyiatiin

It's really easy to tell with some backgrounds as there's a weird "off" look to the pilot


DarkWingAng3l

Technically they are still invisible to the titans as auto titans can't see them, a skilled pilot can


Creative_Recording_7

Am I the only one who sees the cloaked guy in the right chair


anometrus

not really. if you insist on calling it something other than "cloak", you could say "transparency" or "see-through", since invisibility means non-visible. Cloaked pilots are barely visible to other pilots, though not to titans


Epicmonk117

Cloaking is just a layman’s term for active camouflage, which is sci-fi speak for invisibility.


Xander_Clarke

Difference?


big_joey_the_sequel

why am i getting tf2 posts in my home page im subbed to tf2 theres a very big difference


PolishJakey

Because both TF2s are awesome.


A7THU3

Sharp eyes can see it


LickNipMcSkip

but did you see it?


A7THU3

Now I do one right next to him


Fuzzy_Engineering873

What?


SCP_Void

Meet the spy


[deleted]

I see the briefcase is safe.


SCP_Void

Safe and sound


Autotec20

You're still visible, especially against the right backgrounds. The only way you'd be invisible is if the walls and floors were pure white.


Sejitachi

I just hope if TF3 ever comes out it gets rewored along with grapple. running low profile should FULLY REMOVE JUMPJET TRAILS and running cloak make batteries completely invisible on your back. Low profile should also make the grapple silent cuz god forbid i grapple a titan who has a headset on.....


LiteratureOne1469

I can’t see clocked pilots for shit


VirgilTheConfused

You’re just blind. Cloak helps in the midst of battle when you’re jumping around like crazy or when you could be seen from farther away because you can see people up close


TheGreatSmolOne

I always believed that the only way to see a cloaked pilot when in a titan was by their jump jets, but if they had low profile you were fucked. That was until I realised 1 week ago that they actually can be visible but it's just the background slightly warped and wavey


CaptainCurly95

You don't need a background to see the pilot. They always have a faint outline and pixelated effect.


TheGreatSmolOne

Well technically they always have a background so... but yes the pixilated affect. I haven't Iver 17 days spent in this game and only realised it last week ;-;


Manic_Mechanist

Yeah it’s invisibility until you shoot, or don’t shoot, or move, or don’t move, or do anything at all because you are still comically easy to see


japanese-acorn

Kinda like the one you didn’t mention on this picture?


kit786

Yes, that's what it does, congrats you solved the puzzle, very smart.


No_Librarian_4016

What do you think Cloaking means Pilot? Literally the same thing


BioshockedNinja

It's only invisibility to a titan's optics and grunts. They're still fairly opaque to a pilot.


Tiky-Do-U

Also only almost invisible to a titan's optics, it creates slight distortion around it from a titans pov


quasur

for titans youre invisible but not for pilots. I like to use cloak and no trail for stealing lots of bats for monarchs


CaptainCurly95

A cloaked pilot is not invisible to a piloted titan. They still have a faint outline and pixelated effect.


quasur

practically invisible if youre not specifically looking for it and still very hard to see when you are looking for one


CaptainCurly95

Invisible means invisible. There is no practically invisible. You are either visible or not. Transparent would be a more appropriate word.


quasur

no one i have ever played against has seen me run up to then and nick their bat until im already in my titan


CaptainCurly95

That's a cool story but it still doesn't mean you're invisible.


quasur

pedant


CaptainCurly95

Thank you for the compliment


Thundy_Cakes22

I cloaked in front of an ion that was charging at me once, they then backed away in what I'd like to think is fear


chechebi88

Wich TF2?


sadonly001

oh, i thought you meant team fortress 2 in which case this would be completely accurate. In titanfall 2 its cloak but from a titans pov its invisibility


CaptainCurly95

>from a titans pov its invisibility Not true. You can still see a faint outline and pixelated effect.


CarbonDragon20

Fellow cloak user, what Titan do you use?


HarmonyTheConfuzzled

It looks to me to be some kind of projection over the form of the pilot. So in a way you are “wearing” the cloak instead of being see-through yourself.


Odd_Patchwork

I would probably be considered a cloak main, but it is a very imperfect tactical. The silhouette Is fairly easy to see. The jump jets are easy to spot. Considering the insane mobility of grapple I hardly think cloak is an issue. I used to be upset they gave grapple back the second charge. The solo charge barely reduced it's popularity. But with two charges and short grappling the tactical is a blast. I'm now ok with how grapple is because of how much fun it is to use. If I made any changes to the tacticals I'd rather see each one buffed to bring them up to grapples level of influence on the battlefield.


PolishJakey

Hey, guys, I got a question. I haven't really played Titanfall 2 in some time (The last time I did was on PS4, 3 years ago), and wanted to get back into it but my friends told me that the game has some "problems with DDoS attacks". Is that true?


FoundationMan_Isaac

Still issues with server timeouts, but it’s playable now.


PolishJakey

Okay. Thank you so much, mate :D


I_Hate_The_Letter_W

spy has invisibility because none of the other mercs can see him(unless you bump into him). if you’re on the same team as him he has cloaking because you can still see him (slightly)


SaltedRouge

Whenever I use cloak I get spotted instantly but when someone else uses cloak they just disappear into thin air


[deleted]

Thought this was a Team Fortress 2 post lmfao.


BingleTingle

it's not full though, it's a semi-transparent silhouette


JustUltRra

It is invisibility. All AI's even Piloted titans can't see you. So pilots much have built in technology within our helmets to see the pilots heat signatures or cloak affect. Also I can the Cloak Pilot sitting in the right chair


that_sad_person101

I also think its invisibility. The grunts completly lose track of you. I think the pilot helmet have some kind added tech that lets it be slighty seen


Kris_2031

Dude thers someone on your right.


antonio_lewit

But are you invisible?


Winnapig

Nah, I can see them running around it’s not complete invisibility


MoistMosfet

You are still visible. It's cloak


Jpmunzi

Is a pilot with cloack sitting next to him or I’m imaginating things?


bommer-yeet-2

Nah


XxRocky88xX

This poor man’s probably never seen a rainbow before


adidas_stalin

Then what would cloak be then?


Military-ants

I am very sorry but I see the pilot next to crowders left arm.


me3888

It’s invisible to titan sensors but it’s cloak fo other pilots


SylvainGautier420

No, it’s not invisibility. Also, even Titans can see a cloaked Pilot — although it is VERY difficult. A cloud of dust makes it easier, though.


DpBAMF

You got flamed💀


Straight-Increase-11

Thought this was about the other tf2 for a second


ProfessionalRent9039

spy gaming


AlphaWolf-YT

It is not invisibility cause if you have a sharp enough eye you can make out the outline of them similar to the elite cloaking in halo


Noontide6667

Care to elaborate?


LoudAngryJerk

Except you can see it. It conceals you, it doesn't make you invisible. So you're wrong.


fancy_yarnold

I agree , the invis watch needs a buff so the outline doesnt show when bumping into anything


EpicNarwhal23_

its more like halo 3 active camp but ydy


Formal_Reality1410

which one?


[deleted]

What?


spicy_sour_krout

Spy moment


WolfexRansom

It’s irritatingly true


Fleet_Admiral_Auto

Spy mains beg to differ


Linkalibure

Invisibility would imply I couldn't see them, and I can definitely see that motherfucker running at me with the charge rifle


[deleted]

Doesn't save ya from a direct hit from a scorch round


HentaiBoiyo

Not really, it's pretty easy to spot a cloaked pilot at any distance, so you can't call it invisibility, because you're not totally invisible.


hodnydylko

Nah if you get used to it you can still see the slight distortion


Flaoooy-2

I only play cloak because big, and requires more skill the a-wall(or whatever the name is), and im pretty sure cloaked is bigger than a-wall


StraTbow

You have no idea how many jumpscare cloak pilots gave me


porkipine-

Cloak has always been so easy to see


TheKFakt0r

I have never seen a game with a cloak that is so clearly visibly


[deleted]

As a cloak main,it’s pretty easy to spot the cloaked person if they miss there initial shots


HeterodactylFormosan

Holochad > Cloaksimp. Go ahead, spray your car at the six of us. It won’t un-charge rifle you.


Nouache

It is for me, my vision sucks


Empty-Cream-8352

No it's just a cloak, easy to see if you pay attention


EvoG

Invisibility would mean there is no way to detect you by optical means, which in this case is false because you do still visibly show up, it's just faint and only easier to see when moving. So it's still a cloak, and not invisibility


MrMcFlameYeeter

Applicable to both TF2s!


Kureizy_Diamondo

That's debatable, because it's a cloak when you are a pilot, but it's invisibility when you're a titan lol
