HS/NV scope supposed to see infiltrators that are cloaked?

I didn't ask for that, I said that would be the justification for the counter asked for by you.

So, yeah if you want Darklight type counters I want 100% invisibility to balance that. But I'd rather just have a much more realistic amount of cover, working camo, an elimination of all IFF/detection crutches, and no cloaks.

As it stands the counter to cloaks in PS2 is eyes.

I just spent today playing a CQC infiltrator and did great, my proof is the link above. I bought the newest NC SMG just for this (only certs used so far was for a reflex) and used a half ass certed Infiltrator (the 1 cert upgrades. Used shield recharge).

I did Much better than what Iv been doing as an engineer in fact, all thanks to that cloak. If I didn't run right into someones face or they weren't focused on the door I entered (like being at a cap point) I was able to run right past people at least 50% of the time. It amazed me how easy it was to slip past troop after troop. I was also able to walk right up to some, loose several people that I KNOW where hunting me, and use minimal cover to hold an Alpha point in a tower against a few waves of defenders without getting hit more than 1-2 times while everyone with me died each time.

Im a shit competitive gamer and was able to use a class I had NO time in with a weapon I had ZERO experience with and do things I could have NEVER been able to do with any of my main classes. The infiltrator cloaks ARE powerful tools on even stock BR1 grunts. Once a skilled player get a hold of them they can do shit Iv only been able to dream about as a support class player.

Don't tell me that cloaks are weak and that the infiltrator is a weak class as well. If I can do better with a half-assed class than my mains that I have tens of hours with AND as a crap gamer in general, then others can be gods without a lot of work.

I'm sorry, but if bad players that can't find you is your proof, I don't think that justifies an attachment that completely destroys your ability to... you know, actually infiltrate.

I actually like the way they are currently (and I don't play Infiltrator much). Mines piss me off, but the cloak is great with the movement as it is. Not showing on NV is great too since my first reaction to an enemy would be to run, either at them or away, but a good Infil can sit still and be invisible.
