Survey - Cloaking devices

[darkwind]

Thanks to all who voted and discussed the cloaking devices situation.
The poll will end in one day, and so far, there are 27 votes (not enjoying the cloaking devices) and 11 votes (enjoying the cloaking devices).
The majority of the votes show the real dissatisfaction with the current cloaking devices



I hope that the developers will rebalance this issue. thanks.

I tried making request to have cloaking distance limitations removed, but received deny

Hello, thank you for the suggestion and effort you put into this.
After discussion and deliberation the team thinks that a boost to cloaking is not the way forward at present and would be pushing against balance considerations.
Thank you and kind regards.

If someone else has a plan how to act, do act, i'll not longer act on this topic

note: Initially i made it as "dev request", but it was for some reason moved to "player requests" to admins.
So if someone else will be doing smth about it, apparently GMs make decision onto this topic. Knowing that in advance can save you time regarding to whom to communicate this stuff.

also I will make a note that one of current GMs made this comment in addition onto this request. So not all admins there hold high opinion of feedbacks

@Balance Developers @Coding Developers
can we get any update on this 3 weeks old dev request regarding disabling cloaks nerfs and making them great again?
Super simple to implement request (just disabling back added things), that could make back fun for at least Cloaks again, bringing their usability for everything
Linked player survey clearly showed that things regarding cloaks could be improved (edited)Tuesday, January 27, 2026 at 7:21 PM

a survey is just a datapoint though
if you poll the player base and ask "do you want to cut the cap prices by 10x" - you'll get a flood of "yes" answers
doesn't make it a good change (edited)Tuesday, January 27, 2026 at 7:24 PM
cloaks right now are in quite a good state
while I do want to see the return of permacloaks and whatnot
that would not be healthy with the current player density
