Spectre Cloaking Device - Spectre cloaking makes the infiltrator completely invisible even while moving but drains nanites faster.
Seems overpowered to me without some sort of counter detection ability.

Also in the first post -
  • Infiltrator
    • Grenade Equipment
      • IFF Grenade - A grenade capable of detecting enemy troops within a radius, including infiltrators

So at the very least, Inf's will be able counter themselves

Not so sure, completely invisible is a whole different ball game. You only need a second or two to leave your enemy lost and get a jump on him again.

Like I said though, if its as fast as the nano armor it wont be that bad, plus im sure it will have a pretty long charge up again just like the nano armor. If it doesnt then I can see it being a bit OP, Because if you 'blink' like that over and over again your fuel will run out faster then you can recharge. With all the good shotgun wielders out there Im sure you will be dead faster then you can recloak.

I don't think there is much you can read into the test VR, you can still get all the old airframes and tank performance upgrades on there as well, like "hill climbing" or "roll", so obviously on the test server a lot of old crap still exists.

What kind of worries me is that there is a new Liberator weapon on there that appears to be an anti-infantry Tankbuster. I mean... really? I'm a huge fan of the tankbuster, because there is something really satisfying about figuring out a clever way to get close enough to use it, but I'm also not at all sure why the Liberator needs more anti-infantry firepower.

Thats not a flamethrower. Thats a blowtorch. And right now Im saying they are kind of messing up by not giving us some big fat flames with the flamethrower. Really this thing might just be an industrial sized hair dryer.

I doubt the particles are in properly as I saw someone using them on the range and the heat shimmer effects are there but no actual flames. Also the sound is alittle bugged so blow torch or not it's on the test server for.. you know.. testing and refinement; i.e not finished product.

Not Sure if live has it yet but here's the welding helmet for the NC MAX - don't think it looks too bad on the MAX unit personally.
