What PlanetSide needs is a "camo" suit.

Im not so good at explaining things.

But this is actually quite simple.

There are legitimate reason some people may disagree.
But the inf suit comparisions some of you are making really dont make sense.

[BUGGER]

what the hell would it look like? I mean each empirew ould look like a kind of rock. The vanu would be quartz (oh gee wiz), the Nc would look like GOld (probably start knifing you and make sum cast iron thing), and TR would be like liquid hot magma. Eh.

And being that you cant prone whats the point of camo?, theres nothing really to match to.

[Ghoest9]

It doesnt really matter what it looks like.

This would be a feature that largely compensates for for the lack of flora(almost all players have flora turned off). At range to people in the vehicles you would be invisable, up close and to inf it would be fine if it looked just like Agile Armor even.

[spoonkiny]

it would be point less just get the stealth suit.

I do agree with the intial problem though, vehicles just roll over softies way too much, the only real counter is to travel in a pack of 3+ AV users, or stay around minefields

Many people have had similar ideas. Yet they leaned more towards actual camo, and not invisibility. I'd like a cert that allows you to equip certain patterns at the equipment terminal that would help you blend in with the continent you're on.

I think the NC get the shaft in the camo area because they shine bright gold, while the VS and TR are relatively dark at range. This sort of thing would level the playing field.

I like the above idea, I can really envision this one. There would be a primarily green suit for grassy areas like Cyssor, dark green / brown for the marshes of hossin and woodlands of Forseral, obviously a whitish snow suit for Esamir and Cery, and desert camo for Solsar and Ish, caves I'm not too sure about. They could simply add another tab to the equipment terminals, and make the cert cost two(?) points, I think that sounds fair as infil is two as well.

Also when targetting an enemy camo'd unit, your reticules shouldn't turn red, and enchanced targetting should only kick in when you engage him, or somthing like that. It would be pretty pointless if an enemy could just glide his rets through the woods and see em flash red and see RAINMAKER666 with a big red and blue bar under it appear.

I could live with the reticule thing. Im not tryng to hide from other infantry - just the big stuff.(But I do agree the gold color sucks.)

Id be happy if the long range hiding was limited to - BFRs, tanks and reavers, even.

[Jeffey]

shit infantry should be invis to reaver pussies
