If you start buffing in side 10km range.. I CAN hear you..
Please try to buff your attack run out side that range if you are looking to catch me by surprise? :rolleyes:
And remember, Attack Pattern Alpha, Go down fighting, and Tactical Fleet last 30+ seconds.. Hearing those going off automatically tells me.. Oh.. I better have Tac team/FBP/RSP ready to go..
Thank you, and have a fun death.

You think that your beta test was bad?

Do you even Science Bro?
Also for people that do notice it you can throw them off by using a few buffs and not decloaking immediatley, you can see if they pop fbp or rsp and just stay cloaked and get them to waste it then decloak after.
You can 'hear' a lot more than just those skills powering up. With a good pair of headphones and some maneuvering, you can even get a range/direction estimate (the 3D/Z-aspect is missing though, no matter how 'high'/'low' the target is, it appears to on the same plane).
And there are some smart people out there. Once, I SJ'ed 'behind' an uncloaking BOP only to find he was actually facing 180 from me, so as to point his guns at my 'new' position. Heh, can't fool em all, all the time, can you?
There are quite a few deadzones as well. Areas where there is no sound - it's dead silent. There are also various areas where if you rotate your camera at a certain angle, it goes silent as well. It's as if the listener is not attached to the ship - and - nor actually are the generators.
There was a broken KDF mission where you could see what appeared to be evidence of this...
burning all ur buffs like a noob first beep u hear is fail.
save tac team till last second: live
oh and youll alredy know im there prebeep cus youll be vm n cron torp proced.
anyway with delay activate powers (bo, hy) and long duration tac buffs hot first (gdf,apa) ill have a 30 second window to unload at full strike potential after the first beep clues you in.
so the beeps aint everything

Hearing cloakers superbuff in ground is a snap though, cause there isn't 200+ scorpion fighters per person whipping around and blowing your eardrums out.
Fanfiction! ZOMG! Read it now!

You will never hear the Marmot cause marmots wear sneakerz!!!
Although that prebuffing trick seems like a neat thing to pick up. Is that in boot camp or no, cause I think my invite to that is still good.
If I want to buff right next to you I will.
BUFF BUFF BUFF BUFF BUFF!!!
Ur so smexy!
EDIT: Okay, apo is a good cloaked gap closer! MOAR TIPS PWEASE!!
[Zone]derp@hurrderp: I have pandora on, it works fine for me
[Zone]Jack Squat@RedRicky: orly?
CommanderDonatra@Capt.Sisko: ahhh is it supposed to do that?
Norvo Tigan@dontdrunkimshoot: hell ya, maybe
you have buffed right next to me! and then i lived through all your attention! listen check passed :P
yes, when your like me and you use ships incorrectly you run into hearing you coming being more of a problem.
clever girl...
On my KDF, I don't really care. I fly a B'rel torpedo boat and try to sit at least 7km away before I buff and launch my attack.

Dunno my self. I don't ever find my self free or available to take part in the Boot camp. (I know I could probably still learn a thing or two) But you might want to check and find out.
