Infiltration Suit, what does it look like?

Gobberlerra · 2003-03-25, 02:41 AM

How much visiblity does the infiltration suit show at its different stages, i.e when you are still are you 100% see-through or is there a v small glint distortion, e.g halo style?

If they are unditectable when not moving they would vertually force people to have the night vision implant else they would be awesomely powerfull in hacking bases.

(e.g para out of sky, hide in base till main console unguarded then hack) or is this meant to be the case?

when you are not moving they cant see you alot all they see is like little lines and if they run by you they well not even see you.

but if you are moving fast they well spot you easy

If they are standing still you cannot see them AT ALL, no lines, totally see thru. For confirmation, watch the fileplanet beta video...

When they are moving, it depends on their speed, but if they are moving slow you will hardly notice them.

no you can see them little lines if you look at the gamespot movie it shows you can see him still little lines

mikkyT · 2003-03-25, 04:38 AM

your right, but that may be my eyes filling in teh shape that just disappeared

But your not going to see those "little lines" unless you are smack infront of the person and you are looking for them as I was in teh video.

yup but you well see a stealth if they run by you

Maybe, have you seen the last part of the beta video? Dio make a copy of it do a search for Stealth Attack.WMV on this forum - in that video is a guy dying, an unstealthed running away and a stealth (the blue blob on the floor) running the other way, you cannot see the stealth at all (virtually) except for that blue blob whatever that is...

You know, after thinking about it (and watching the rest of that beta video), I think that blue blob would be a Vanu knife in secondary. Just a hunch, but that'd be my best guess.

got a link to it ? Happen to come back to this same thread after doing a search for Stealth Attack.WMV lol...

Well, you aren't invis when you are para out of sky, so you could be caught then. Then, while the hack is in progress, I believe you turn visible and have no way of defending yourself. Finally, when the hack is done, you are going to have to defend the base for 15 minutes while the previous owners are alerted that the hack has occured. A lone infiltrator won't have a chance at a successful defense.

Why can you not turn invis while parashooting? The armor is activated don't see why you can't.

You can always stop the hacking progress so you aren't helpless.
