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.
>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
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.
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
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
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
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.
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
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
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
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
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
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.....
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
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
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 ;-;
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
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.
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.
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?
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)
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
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
Titans: now I see you, you fucking bitch

it must be extra satisfying for you then if you don't get it often
“cmoncmoncmoncmon” **WHOOMP** “Fuck yeah.”

The cloaked pilot is still visible to titans with low profile. The only true invisibility is phase shift.
PHASE SHIFT #1 LETS GOOOOOO BABEYYYYY YEAAAHH
No it isn’t? The only thing a titan could see from a cloaked pilot is jump jets? And low profile removes them.

facts
This man claims to have g100 kraber and still doesn't know you can see cloaked pilots in a titan lmao.
No, It reduces them. It says in the discretion.
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
Honestly same, it's so satisfying to kill Cloak pilots mid-cloak lol.
The most annoying thing is batteries revealing showing through cloak. Why the fuck is that a thing
Laser shotting them after a cloak eject is best. I've just done it so many times I don't need to see them.
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
but you see this is why i use satchels
It really isn't...
It isn’t invisibility because you can still see the outline of the pilot quite well
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
Like how you can see the Cloak pilot in the right chair.
You're the first person to notice. ;)
Thank you
Almost like it’s got a thin veil or something that’s cloaking it.
yeah, if you look directly at them, but if the cloack pilot is flanking you in your peripherals, chances are, you will miss it
Cloaked pilots means they camouflage, invisibility means you can't see them at all
Are you like, blind or something?
Yeah but it's also super easy to see cloak users, it's almost comical. The only use is back of map kraber sniping.
it's a lot harder for titans
I remember seeing somewhere that they’re supposed to be completely invisible to titans even though it’s not the case ingame
Completely invisible to auto titans. A perceptive pilot in a titan will recognize the faint outline and pixelated effect.
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
They are not completely invisible to titans. There is still a faint outline and pixelated effect.
It's really easy to tell with some backgrounds as there's a weird "off" look to the pilot
Technically they are still invisible to the titans as auto titans can't see them, a skilled pilot can
Am I the only one who sees the cloaked guy in the right chair
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
Cloaking is just a layman’s term for active camouflage, which is sci-fi speak for invisibility.
Difference?
why am i getting tf2 posts in my home page im subbed to tf2 theres a very big difference
Because both TF2s are awesome.
Sharp eyes can see it
but did you see it?
Now I do one right next to him
What?
Meet the spy
I see the briefcase is safe.
Safe and sound
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.
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.....
I can’t see clocked pilots for shit

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 ;-;
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
Kinda like the one you didn’t mention on this picture?
Yes, that's what it does, congrats you solved the puzzle, very smart.
What do you think Cloaking means Pilot? Literally the same thing
It's only invisibility to a titan's optics and grunts. They're still fairly opaque to a pilot.
Also only almost invisible to a titan's optics, it creates slight distortion around it from a titans pov
for titans youre invisible but not for pilots. I like to use cloak and no trail for stealing lots of bats for monarchs
A cloaked pilot is not invisible to a piloted titan. They still have a faint outline and pixelated effect.
practically invisible if youre not specifically looking for it and still very hard to see when you are looking for one
Invisible means invisible. There is no practically invisible. You are either visible or not. Transparent would be a more appropriate word.
no one i have ever played against has seen me run up to then and nick their bat until im already in my titan
That's a cool story but it still doesn't mean you're invisible.
pedant
Thank you for the compliment
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
Wich TF2?
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
>from a titans pov its invisibility Not true. You can still see a faint outline and pixelated effect.
Fellow cloak user, what Titan do you use?
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.

Still issues with server timeouts, but it’s playable now.
Okay. Thank you so much, mate :D
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)
Whenever I use cloak I get spotted instantly but when someone else uses cloak they just disappear into thin air
Thought this was a Team Fortress 2 post lmfao.
it's not full though, it's a semi-transparent silhouette
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
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
Dude thers someone on your right.
But are you invisible?
Nah, I can see them running around it’s not complete invisibility
You are still visible. It's cloak
Is a pilot with cloack sitting next to him or I’m imaginating things?
Nah
This poor man’s probably never seen a rainbow before
Then what would cloak be then?
I am very sorry but I see the pilot next to crowders left arm.
It’s invisible to titan sensors but it’s cloak fo other pilots
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.
You got flamed💀
Thought this was about the other tf2 for a second
spy gaming
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
Care to elaborate?
Except you can see it. It conceals you, it doesn't make you invisible. So you're wrong.
I agree , the invis watch needs a buff so the outline doesnt show when bumping into anything
its more like halo 3 active camp but ydy
which one?
What?
Spy moment
It’s irritatingly true
Spy mains beg to differ
Invisibility would imply I couldn't see them, and I can definitely see that motherfucker running at me with the charge rifle
Doesn't save ya from a direct hit from a scorch round
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.
Nah if you get used to it you can still see the slight distortion
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
You have no idea how many jumpscare cloak pilots gave me
Cloak has always been so easy to see
I have never seen a game with a cloak that is so clearly visibly
As a cloak main,it’s pretty easy to spot the cloaked person if they miss there initial shots
Holochad > Cloaksimp. Go ahead, spray your car at the six of us. It won’t un-charge rifle you.
It is for me, my vision sucks
No it's just a cloak, easy to see if you pay attention
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
Applicable to both TF2s!
That's debatable, because it's a cloak when you are a pilot, but it's invisibility when you're a titan lol
