I wish it would bounce a few times before getting stuck

Or be able to detonate

I agree. Shuriken should be itā€™s own weapon. I also would suggest the smart disc get itā€™s kinks worked out. For example, sometimes it gets caught on things even though it isnā€™t even touching a wall, tree, pillar, truck, and etcā€¦ But Iā€™m not sure if the smart disc has been improved cuz I havenā€™t used it for like a month. :3

Iā€™m really not seeing the benefit of making the shuriken the disk. Like functionally they do the same thing but in practice the shuriken isnā€™t a thing you need any sort of tech for. Itā€™s an evil boomerang. Did Scar or Fugitive really fuck around with the computer while it was in flight? Is that why the guy in The Predator got his hand sliced off? Itā€™s not because itā€™s a giant bladed disk that no Human dexterity can hope to catch, itā€™s because he wasnā€™t fucking around with a gauntlet?

While you can control the disk, the shuriken is something the Predator can throw but canā€™t control. Basically meaning that while you can throw more shuriken, you canā€™t control where they go beyond that. Just throw the shuriken and then like the disk it can come back but runs the risk of hitting something along the way and getting stuck. Make itā€™s return relative to the Predatorā€™s last position when thrown.

looks like predators might be getting elite skins next patch or itā€™s just another shader?

Possible challenge reward? If Lone Wolf has a score (maybe with various tiers of score like bronze or platinum) then maybe itā€™s a reward for getting a good score?

Hmmm, hopefully theyā€™d function like the Ft Elite costumes in the regard that Yautja armor would change.

To all the peeps that were saying we should tell Illfonic not to make the Shuriken a smart sldisc variantā€¦you are late to the party. When the shuriken flight image was leaked last year people near unanimously were against. Clearly our pleas were ignored. Itā€™s too late. Just keep your fingers crossed that other unique weapons are coming and not regurgitated weapon variants like hammer and shuriken.

Iā€™m really hoping for this

No itā€™s never to late, because itā€™s coming in April (if I remember what the blog teased)
Our cryā€™s might have not been heard then, but we can make them heard now

They arenā€™t gonna change it dudeā€¦development takes time and if they went the smart disc route thereā€™s nothing we can do. 2 months is nothing in development time.

It just sucks that they are going down the Smart Disc route, unless they pull a sneaky and have been working on multiple shurikens types

Well not for nothingā€¦if itā€™s a reskined smart disc I canā€™t imagine being a whole hell of a lot of time. Where as if itā€™s a different weapon all togetherā€¦yeah.

Itā€™ll be fine so long as they donā€™t touch the wrist computer

Iā€™m not sure you understand. People including myself donā€™t want the Shuriken to be a skin variant of smart disc. We want it to be a new weapon with new mechanics. Many including myself voiced this concern throughout last year.

We are now 2 months or less away from itā€™s release now and @Robo_2696 was saying we need to petition Illfonic to not make it like smart disc.

I said itā€™s 2 months away from release and if the went the smart disc route there is no way they could change it now to a mechanically new weapon, because 2 months of development time is not enough to make new mechanics and implement them.

Understand?

I understand completely what youā€™re saying.

What Iā€™m saying is if the leak was early last year, and weā€™ve had no reskinned smart disc released, itā€™s still possible this is a new weapon and not a reskinned smart disc, as they have had time to develop it

Thatā€™s IF they listened. And their track record doesnā€™t support that assumption.

Mehā€¦thatā€™s debatable. Either way all weā€™re doing is speculating anyway
