1. When the kinetic dampeners kick in, does it disable Infiltrator's cloak? I already know it would probably blur a lot.
2. Can you shoot while in freefall/kinetic dampening?
3. Does anyone know if vehicles have them yet (the beta's out, someone should know!)?
4. I know there's a minimum, but is there a MAXIMUM height that they will kick in (I doubt it)?

After questions are answered, let's discuss uses/strategies.

1.) they kick inn after you've fallen for a certain altidude, we don't know how hight.. well us non beta testers. Well seeing how falling makes a infiltrator visible, what ya think falling out of a plane will do?

2.) Probably, VS MAX fires in the air in a vid so...

3.) They can't say, NDA... But i for one don't think a vehicle has kinetic dampeners, just a guess.

4.) No max altitude has been mentioned so my best bet, no.

1. It probably makes the infiltration suit shimmer, as was discussed when the infl. suit attacks initially.

2. Yes

3. I doubt it, otherwise, what would be the use of actually landing the Galaxy.

4. probably not

1.) Blur most likely

2.) yes

3.) Pretty positiive no, but what type of vehicles would be getting that kinda air anyways? (except for flying vehicles and me in my harasser...)

4.) Probabaly not

SJ said that there is a very thin altitude window that will kill you if you jump from that height. This was in the shoutcase.
