Cloak tracker I works in that you can see "sparkles" when an opponent enters cloak (usually immediately after they have won a 1v1). I think the intention of this mode was to stop cloak camping, however most people cloak and run (which limits the effectiveness of the cloak tracker). Most players enter cloak before going into open areas and therefore aren't spotted. I am trying to get II upgrade to see if it improves the usefulness. I would agree that Tracker is generally better, but cloaked opponents don't leave any tracks. Prox Alarm is probably the best for being aware of a presence, but I haven't found a module that works reliably against cloaked opponents other than my own two eyes.

Use Nano Vision. It's way better than Tracker/Cloak Tracker. Also, if you use Visor enhance 3 you can reduce the cost of Nano Vision.

Level 1 Visor Enhance also makes a red silhouette of enemies you spot (through your scope only) who then cloak. Try it.

This is a great suggestion, but I find hitting the D pad down very non-user friendly (xbox). Some of my friends say that you can hear them easily (if you have head phones). I do try to stop and listen when possible.

i had cloak tracker lvl 3. you see green techno-bars going vertically and horizontally on their body, a red explosion shape where they entered cloak, and they sparkle. it work s for me, but these glitches have been console related (PC here).

Just got level II tonight and see no noticeable difference. I think the module is a bust. Stick with Tracker on small maps and ? on large. Nano vision if you can works the keys.

I have cloak tracker lvl 3 and all I can say is it has some slightly limited use but is effective against most people who run and gun with cloak on.

Nano vision is complete crap... And Cloak tracker makes them appear like Michael Jackson for a few moments sparkling.

I think tracker should allow you to see a person in cloaks route as well as when they aren't cloaked. Would make it a bit more useful.
