What if the cloak was perfect invisibility but drained energy a lot faster?
This would activly make cloaking a meaningful decision. It would also help with balance between higher and lower ranked players.
With cloaking the way it is now, either the pred is balanced around the common player and is too easy to spot for death squads or is balanced around death squads and is too difficult to spot for the average player.
This system fixes that (in theory) because death squads can’t spot the pred as well but the average pred (the ones average players should be facing) won’t get the timing on the cloak right and will slip, allowing the FT to spot the pred.
