adv stealth generator? Thread - Tiberium Essence Fans

not sure if its been looked at yet...

anyways, does anyone else hate how the stealth generators of current leave you kind of vulnerable? yah sure they could have tactical applications, but when they are the only thing the enemy can see of your stuff, your, youll be boned...
we all know that nod isnt the big bad boy in the mod yet, and maybe this will help balance things. maybe: a stealth generator that cloaks itself?

If you played the game multi player yet or skirmish:
the stealth generators are already stealth themselves also (maybe in some missions they still will be visible, but not anywhere else)
i do want to make them more... generator like instead of spiky statues.

oh, sorry... i havnt played multi in several months and have just been going through the campaign again... i guess that gave me the wrong idea... whoops...

but yah, a less spiky one would be good too.

I like the phantom tank. Very handy. The old stealth generator, used on TW (I don't remember its name now), can be removed. I prefer the reintroduction of the stealth gen. building instead. It's a nonsense that GDI, in TS was using the mobile radar array to find out the stealth units and now no more.

re-instantiation of the mobile sensor array would be nice too...

It was removed because it's useless. The reason is: several GDI (and other sides) units have stealth detectors (even base defences), so there's no reason to introduce a mobile detector unable to defend itself.

Maybe integrating it in the Rig?

I think that an upgrade making the Generators' stealth field unable to be compromised by the Radar Scan abillity would be very usefull and balancing.

oh, i like that idea playmsbk...

so do i

That may be good but how can be counterable?

With units with stealth detection capabillities.

yeah like the wolverine for example.
I do like that it would make fighting you nod ***holes an actuall challenge

Nod's just too unprotected with that minimum number of overkill units and the tens of units and abillities disabling stealth. The Radar Scan just seems too overpowered to me when it can cripple a base from its stealth.

yeah i agree with you there, like i said it would make it a challenge to take you ***kers out

i currently dont even use stealth do to its underpoweredness. that and the ai basically ignores stealth....

But when playing online, GDI players use the Radar Scan ability too effectively and too often.
