Step One: Know when there's a cloaker around.
When there's a cloaker around, there's a very clear static/high pitched ringing effect centered on it. If you turn down/turn off the ingame music, it's especially easy to hear.

The sound gets louder the closer the Cloaker is to you, so if you're not a filthy casual and you're wearing headphones, it should be fairly easy to locate them.

Make sure to communicate with your team, especially if you're not all grouped together.

Above all, USE THE SPOT FUNCTION.

It makes glowies. Glowies are good.
Step Two: Prepare to engage the Cloaker.
Before you jump out there like Rambo, try to make sure that your teammates will be able to revive you if he ends up kicking you right in the testicles.

Look around: Would you want to stand still for more than three seconds in the spot you're at? No? Don't engage the Cloaker there.

If you're in a good spot that your teammates can revive you, go ahead and engage the cloaker.
Step Three: Engage the Cloaker.
NEW: Step Four: Watch as the project you loved sells out completely and loses all respect for itself.
Alright, gonna be serious here for a moment. What happened to the Overkill who gave us an FoV slider an hour into the beta because we asked for it, and needed it? What happened to actual decently sized DLC packs that are worth the cost? What happened to not money-grabbing, Overkill? What happened?

What happened to one of final few gaming companies I loved and trusted?

You disappoint me, Overkill, and you've betrayed the community. You did a long time ago with the constant stream of tiny dlc for overpriced amounts, but this is just... egregious.

Furries and weebs are both autistic

We need to band together and form one massive autism train to fight the cause.
