It is vital that a Cloaker is killed before trying to revive his victim as he can wipe out 3/4th of the crew if attempting to revive downed players while he is still active.Ī standing Cloaker can still instantly kick if a heister is in range without emitting the traditional ringing noise, so keep an eye out when moving through tight spots as they have a particular habit of ambushing players silently this way. Additionally, the Cloaker's kick attack has a short cool down period of around 10 seconds. If a Cloaker has successfully downed a player, he will drop a smoke bomb upon death, which is usually lighter than standard SWAT smoke grenades. When taking damage, after incapacitating a player, or when setting up ambushes around a downed player, Cloakers will often drop a smoke bomb to further mask their movements. They are also extremely fast and can close distances quickly. Do not be lured into a false sense of security just because you are hiding behind an object. Cloakers may also lie on the ground to appear dead, then suddenly roll to the side and stand up to attack.Ĭloakers are capable of jumping over cover in order to attack players. This visual/audio warning is usually too late to be helpful, however, players that aim for the head can still kill the Cloaker before he can take the player down (usually playing the attack animation, but having no effect, and dying afterwards). The only time a Cloaker's appearance will stand out is when its goggles glow green after it has decided to charge a player, along with an increase in the electric sound's volume. This unassuming appearance will usually allow Cloakers to blend in with a mob of SWAT units. In terms of appearance, Cloakers may appear similar to a Blue SWAT unit at first glance, although their head shape is slightly different from other SWAT units due to their goggles, and wear darker armor than the Blue SWAT. If a Cloaker can not find a player to attack after spawning, it may decide to hide under objects such as vehicles and large objects, or hide on top of objects attached to the ceiling to drop down on unsuspecting players searching for them, or simply wait around corners and behind doors to ambush players instead of rushing in with other SWAT units. Like in the first game, Cloakers will beat downed players with their nightsticks, occasionally kicking and taunting them until they spot a new target.
They are capable of performing acrobatic movements such as flipping sideways and over low objects, ducking under tables to evade damage, hiding behind doors, going prone under cars, or even crawling through vents to attack from unexpected angles. They generally fight like regular enemies with their Compact-5 submachine gun until they get close enough to charge and kick a player, which will incapacitate a player in one hit. After spawning, Cloakers behave somewhat like regular enemies, although they are stealthy in their movements and will take alternate routes to flank players. Players can normally detect their presence by the high pitch noise they emit, which sounds similar to the ringing of telephones or a holler.
On that note, we’ve opened up the Steam Community Hub, so we can start using its discussion board.Cloakers will normally spawn by using objects such as manhole covers, ventilation grates and normal enemy spawn points.
