Why is that when i am stealthed and i'm far to medium range of an enemy they can shoot me easily (nano vision off and sometimes even when i'm sprinting) as if i am not in stealth and i have stealth enhance 3, but on my view i can barely see stealthed enemies up close and i have to use nano vision alot! Does it something to do with the brightness of my display (i have mine at 50), or do i really have bad eyesight? It is really frustrating to see enemies shoot me down when i'm in stealth with so much ease.

Some people just have good eyesight. It can be easy to spot the folded light if you're looking for it. Not only that but if they have a laser site attachment that can also reveal you aswell. The red dot will cross over any cloaked enemy as if it were hitting a wall, giving away your position.

There is also the fact that your shadow remains (but this wouldn't apply if you were using the right modules which you claim you are).

I've been able to spot cloaked enemies at great distances. I usualy look for shadows or "awkward" textures or glows. Most of the times I'm right and I actually kill someone! I think it's definitely a question of good eyesight. I know ppl who can't see a cloaked enemy 5 feet away.

Always look for shadows, moving grass and strange glows. It's usually someone cloaked. Predicting what the enemy wants to do also helps. (moving to capture the flag, moving towards the point, moving towards a dead ally to collect dogtag, moving towards a vantage point, etc.)

Sound is also extremely important. I got a 5.1 headset, the cloak tracker does wonders for me because the sound the tracker makes allows me to pin point very accurately where an enemy might be or where he's coming from and where he's going.

In the end it's always about practice.

@destroy23 - sometimes they can see you because those mother **** have aim bots.
There is a new type of cheaters, those who are using aimbots in intelligent way.

I was once cloaked running on skyline and guy was heading in my way, he didnt reach the corner to see me but he shoot few rounds from a marshal as he would expect me to be in the place that he didnt saw yet.

Crytek do something with those ****!!

PS. And if there is no such thing then how to explain that I was killed by one player lets say 12-14 times?
Coincidence? I dont think so... not more than 10 times in a row!

You are not fully stealthed in stealth. You just refract light like in Predator movie. I'm just seeing that somebody with refract light aura running or walking and if it's not my teammate - killing. Or there is shadows telling me that somebody there. And there is birds flying away when somebody going through them. There are a lot of ways to sight cloaked one, just need to pay attention to the game.
Recommend you to look series of Predator movies and Allien vs Predator movies. The cloak mode for predators is like in crysis 2 but also having some differences.
Besides there's more easier to sight someone without cloak.

But of course some of the individuals may using cheats(aim, nick sighting) That's a pity, cause they are ruining all the fun from the game. =(

I guess some have good eyesights but most i think are using hacks to help them. I observe the kill cam most of the time, and really there's no way the enemy detects you that fast and that spot on accurate. I really try to be unpredictable in every move when in stealth but to no avail.

Tag hack or you just run into some good players.

Tag hack allows players to see opponents nicknames displayed above their heads, its like you can see your teammates nicknames just in this case they also see opponents nicknames. Sadly this hack is undetectable and you can't prove anything.

Other this is that there are people who actually are good at finding people using cloak, it's not so hard to spot cloaked player, especially if he run near any light source. Also if someone put crosshair on you he will see your tag displayed above your head.

Also cloak tracker at lvl 3 show cloaked players.

Last this is ... being a victim of Visor tagging Someone tag you with visor and other people know where you are.

Actually stealth enchance 3 dosen't get rid of your shadow :s
it's a bug.

They can see your shadow

I get called out for killing stealthed enemies from a great distance, but all I do is go into Visor and tag at random. It picks up cloaked enemies as well, works like a charm

For me it's just a matter of luck, sometimes I can see a cloaked foe 60 yards away, and others I run next to one without noticing.

The other day I noticed the water splashes of some guy's footsteps, shooted, profit! It was fun ^^

I laugh my ass of from people who use cloak and jump on wall of bricks @ Lighthouse map, and they think that they are freaking predators.... until someone one shoot them in face with simple Pistol or DSG lmao xD

There's a bug (?) where the weapon of the cloaker doesn't cloak, or at least cloaks a lot less than the rest. I almost feel bad shooting those people I mostly saw because there was a gun floating around in the air. But hey, not my fault the game is buggy. I have no idea if this registers in the kill cam or not.

As has been mentioned there's also the visor spotting, which not many people seem to be using a lot. (I usually get the visor related awards, even when I didn't use it that much) Can anyone confirm that the visor tag appears in kill cam? (I.e. the red arrow over the player etc) Can't say that I've ever noticed it on myself, but that doesn't have to mean anything.

Yes sometimes in the kill cam when i'm in stealth they can see my shadow and i have stealth enhance 3! And I also do experience seeing enemies who are in stealth with their guns floating around! This really needs to get fixed!

Nope, don't think so. If I activate my cloak, my shadow disappears. Dunno if other players have this problem.

I think it's just a killcam bug, pretty sure Stealth Enhance III works like it should.

well i generely shoot anything that moves or looks funny ( ive shot a lot of innocent windows as well)
when ever i think someones cloaking i just spray a few rounds...... cloacked enemies die really easy from a few shots

This. Also, someone on the other team could have been tagging with the visor. Or it could simply be people using Cloak Tracker.

i think the cloak mode isnt perfect. cause i see sometimes cloak enemy too without nano vision. i think would be better to make it a bit more invisible. its ok if u see cloaked enemies in near of few metres or zoomed scope. but at all i dont have much problems with get found while cloaked:D

mmz thats strange you only need Stealth Enhance LV2 to make your shadow go away.
and the tagging with visor is pretty neat, and I do see ppl using that ability allot latly. I personally don't use it much but if I do I end up spending most off the match tagging ppl; personal record in one match 15 tag assists in lighthouse >.<

There's also visor enhance, with which enemies glow red, even behind walls, when in your scope. I use it alot, and have noticed red enemies even just in my FOV when using reflex sight. When you are sighted exactly on an enemy, their nickname and the little "his head is here" triangle pop up, even if you cant actually see them through the trees. That's often a good time to exhale fully and gently squeeze the trigger.

I'd say it's most likely due to (in no particular order): good at spotting cloaked enemies, visor tagged (everyone has an arrow above their head in killcams, so you can't tell), your weapon didn't cloak, your shadow (Stealth Enhance II does remove your shadow, but not in killcams), an environmental factor gave you away (water etc.), they heard you cloak/jump/ledgegrab and knew roughly where to look or they had a hack of some sort.

Some people just have good eyesight.


Thats it. I never use Nanovision, i'm able to see every cloaker without.

Yep, I can see cloakers with and without nanovision. It's called a 24" 1080p monitor in widescreen. And in 3D.

i get far too often killed while in stealth from huge to medium distances. either there′re a lot of name hack players online or the stealth mode is buggy. in my mind in mid to far ranges it should be really hard to spot a cloaked enemy and the shadow should be almost transparent.

I'd like to stick to jaba01 - I always see cloakes enemies, even those who are lots of feet away from me. Somethimes I see enemies feets away switching into Cloak. I use to follow them and kill them from behind. This often works. To put it into a nutshell, I'd say it's a matter of practice. Play the game, look for unusual structures or else and shoot it - in most cases it's a cloaked enemy.
