Developer Notice: Cloak Changes Trial Phase

[Shizune]

TheUnforgiven typed some very good points. Also, it seems I wasted 350 000 000 credits to hear 'Incoming missile' and then read 'Cloaking device off' in green. Cruise disruptor shouldn't stop the cloaking. There should be some special cloak disruptor for disrupting cloaks, I am thinking about new pob equipment. Cruise d. for disrupting engine and Cloak d. for disrupting cloak ONLY. Something expensive and rare as cloaking devices. That is another balance issue: Buying expensive device, which can be easily rendered useless by 300 times cheaper (If mk2 cloak).

When I was sometimes ganked by 3 or even more decloaking Liberty dreadnoughts, I didn't came here to whining it's OP and requesting nerf. I bought my own cloak. But now.. 'Incoming missile' Buying cloak requires time, many hours of boring powertrading, mining or whatever else. Buying cruise disruptor? That is not comparable. CD vs Cloak, that is unbalanced. The cost difference.

Yes but why would anything small need a cloak? For the 10 second charge time, you can run about 10k from your enemy once fully cloaked anyways.

in a medium cloak you have about 3-4 minutes of cloak time even while being disrupted

And for the large...well let me put it like this, when they first came out, I saw 5k transports fly around with 2k of their cargo as MOX and run cloaked their whole trip because they could, they also made money, never got stopped by pirates and above all, NPC's didn't bother them for their cargo.
