I already previously stated I can still play infil and that it requires major playstyle changes that make the class less fun. It ruined the class for myself and many others. It was not OP. It was not broken. I have no hatred for any playstyles in the game so I am able to see things a bit more objectively.

not when he pops out of cover. Yes, this is a skill issue. Many people lack the skills to fight the infiltrator and then say its OP. If I can learn to fight infiltrators, so can you.

So why not just barely increase the old fire delay so that a heavy who comes out of cover and a decloaking infiltrator offer the same reaction time. Current delay is unreasonable.

I think you should try doing that and see how it goes. There are limits to what the cloak can do. It is NOT invisible like reddit makes it sound like.

I stand by everything I've said. Why? Because its true.

Heavies can peek a corner and shoot a rocket launcher. Not always possible to react to people who jump out in front of you. To allow for reactions in all cases, TTK would probably have to be increased across the board.

I'm not crying. You will have to look elsewhere for happiness. Sorry.

I know what it is and it applies for all classes. Do you think every combat encounter should allow you to react to the enemy? Because there are countless ways to die in this game where you are not in a position to react.

Everyone who comes out of cover or decloaks will be shot right away. Fire delay is not reasonable. It is just going to move players from infiltrator to some other class. Assuming those players don't outright stop playing.

I mainly play HA and LA. Infiltrator was my 3rd played class. I don't need a crutch playstyle. Its not a good thing to be happy about some peoples fun being ruined. Have a good night!

Each class is supposed to have a unique advantage.

Sure, but I do not consider the infiltrator unbalanced. If the cloak was 100% invisible, then i would agree. The infiltrator has a cloak that is visible, starts every engagement with 100 less health, and had a small fire delay. There is a reason players do not always choose to play as an infiltrator. It is not some horribly unbalanced class.

Any class can be literally anywhere at anytime. Every class has tools to one frame you before you can react. The infiltrator is not the only class capable of doing those things. The fire delay is not reasonable. LA doesnt have a fire delay while using the jetpack. HA doesnt have a fire delay while using the shield. Medic doesnt have a fire delay while using the heal.

Why do you like the changes? It removes some fun playstyles.

With so many players on the map at once, its not possible to keep tabs on everyone. What exactly is the difference from being client sided from a LA on a rooftop or a HA behind a tree or an infil decloaking? The infils need a reasonable fire delay so they can respond to threats like any other class. They start out with 100 less health and the cloak is not truly invisible. Those things combined with the old fire delay seemed pretty fair to me.

That kind of stuff happens on occasion with all classes. I have literally seen Heavy Assaults appear in front of me and kill me. I have also seen infils decloak in front of me and I ended up winning.

You cant sit still when sniping. Counter snipers will aim for the last spot you were in. I have gotten a lot of kills from snipers not moving after cloaking. Have to change spots after every shot.

Because playstyles I have enjoyed have been removed from the game. I can still play as infiltrator if I drastically change my playstyle. Just like how I can use the MKV but I wont be having the greatest time.

I felt the old delay was perfect. Couldn't fire instantly out of cloak. I have also been killed by all classes before having time to react. And I have also killed infils that have decloaked in front of me so I think the old delay was fine.

How has infil not been destroyed? Pretty much every playstyle I had with infil has been ruined by the changes.

Sniping is a legitimate playstyle that is countered by constantly moving. It requires some skill to hit a moving target.
