Stealth

[ThePlayers75]

stealth is an option on this game but is really limited and also really bad like you could kill 2 enemies without nobody noticing but suddently the next one you kill hears you and gets on the body position for alot of time and is not even rewarding like it does nothing the missions goes as usual anyways it would be better if something else happened like the enemies dont know your there so you take another approach the cloak is also useless for stealth cause your crouched and your slow as hell so it doesnt even matter and the silencer also is bad cuase it makes the enemies go to the body and you cant move the body without grabbing it so yeah if your gonna say you have stealth in your game make it a little bit more relevant and not useless (yes I do know cloak is for combat most of the time I know how to play this game)

played the game for 35 hours and didn't understand that cloak is not for stealth, bravo

cloak is for evading enemy fire and flanking not stealth, stealth in this game is optional (and doable) but most of the time cloak is for standard fights

Stealth in this game was only ever an option at the beginning. Plenty of points in the game have optional stealth moments, but even if you do them like that, the game will still treat you as if you went in guns blazing.

Before combat, the AI is dumb enough to stand still, eyes on a very interesting brick wall, ignoring the sound of their dead buddy dropping to the ground or the violent explosion of his head as your fist meets his nose. However, as soon as they discover the truth, that Subject 106 is just as dangerous as the reports said, they get into tacticool mode.

Standing by a potted plant, you go invisible, for a few seconds the grunts'll keep shooting at that plant until it's nothing but soil on the floor. Afterwards, they'll turn their attention around to where you may've gone. Maybe you fled around them, they start firing there at their sides. After a moment, they realise you went right through them and have now just snapped the squad lead's neck, right in the centre of their firing squad.

A silent assassin is not what you're meant to be. A wave of unstoppable violence is what the security camera footage would suggest.

Well revert the roles; if someone dangerous disappears in front of you do you think they ran away? I know I won't, they most likely will try to use this to blindside me (and will most likely succeed).

Short term invisibility is something akin to teleportation in a firefight and it is terrifyingly powerful. Paired with firepower, using it as an escape would be the very last one of the possibilities on my mind.
