You can but they gotta be stealthed, aka in cover first. After they stealth you can choose hold fire. Just like Tank Hunters.

Maby they should be able to stealth before they are hidden so they won't shoot instead of going stealth.

Anybody got any replys about the Tank Hunter issue? It must be something the devs have overlooked right?
Which tank hunter issue? I think you are looking in the wrong thread.

The issue is... It's friggin hard to get them to cloak.. And i mean all 4 of the squadmembers. When you put a squad in cover sometimes afjew members will stand behind the rest of the squad and so right?

Well the squad member that is furthest away from the cover, yellow or green will not be cloaked and you can't use hold fire then.

So when i see a puma comming i am quick to hide my tank hunters just to get them slaughtered because one or even two squadmembers in both squads refused to cloak.

I think the whole squad should cloak if it is considered as covered. (Yellow\Green shield) and not depend on all squadmembers staying in perfect possition. (Like the brittish PIATS)

(And this is the thread where i asked if it is supposed to be that way, one of the first posts)
(Not an issue if the squad is down to one man or even two.)

You posted the same in the know bugs & issues and the answer is the same: there is no issue, it works the same in CoH. Try to not hijack threads ;).

However cephalos suggested something good (IIRC was him :-X).

Maby the O.T should get the ability to hold fire even though it's not cloaked so it does not give away it's possition so easily before it's stealthed? :D
