Motion Sensors


When did the motion sensors start detecting cloakers while they crouch-walk?? Not even at a full speed crouch walk... I'm talking I tapped the forward button twice inside of a second and a half, and suddenly, I'm lit up like a Christmas tree. wtf??

It's been doing that for awhile. The first time I noticed it, I saw a health bar and name just floating nearby...of course, the PS motto is "when in doubt, shoot it", so I did, and found it was a cloaker. I think that only happens where they are really close though, most of the time I just see a red blip on radar.

It doesn't happen all the time, and honestly I'm not sure what triggers it. I had it happen to me once last night, but I was around the motion sensors many times without it happening. Unfortunately the one time it did go off was in a fully populated enemy base where I was just a few steps from beginning a hack on an abandoned Vanguard.

It's not a motion sensor doing that to you... it's a skeeter.

Mosquitos will uncover cloakers even when crouched if the plane is moving very slowly.

You may not have seen the skeeter on the radar when you got uncovered. I don't believe that motion sensors uncover crouched steathers now (i snuck by a few last night with no prob).

That could be, like I said it was a fully populated enemy base I was in which included aircraft overhead. That's harsh.

The Mosquito is the stealthers worst nightmare. When they hover at minumum speed their radar picks up anyone and everyone. I'm really sure it wasn't a motion sensor. I use motion sensors all the time and I have never seen them pick up a crouched Infiltrator.

Yea skeeters are relly got a spotting EVERYTHING!
I used to have a skeet and when im just floating there afk.. i can see all the cockers run around - it makes me laugh!

Problem: Skeeters not only show you where the infil. is on ur radar - it also hovers the name above the person so you can follow it everywhere!! Cmon - infils are week enough already!1 Give em a break!!

Nothing is funnier than an enemy cloaker who's name is visible because of a mosquito that's flying overhead
