3 Major FT Playstyles: What are your tactics to hunt FT?

#1
  1. Deathsquad - Goes after the Predator and doesn’t let go until they find him. FT team members often trail after another but some might be left behind but mainly are very tightly formed. Often times missions don’t continue only till after a lengthy battle has ensued.
  2. Mission Runners - FT tries to speed the mission quickly and is mainly interested in that but can be very powerful due to perks and class types.
  3. Nesters - FT members might contain a hider, a lone sniper, while the rest cling to each other trying to speed the mission- see mission runners.

As Pred, any one have any good tactics against them? Post ONLY Strategies and give your strategy names!

I’m sick and reading all these new threads about wanting the devs to fix this and that and complain about cheaters and hackers.We keep seeing new threads like this shit pop up.

Ppl aren’t going to get gud unless you discuss what you came all this way to this website to do.

You’d be surprised what this thread might do. Once ppl respond with tactics, we could make machos out of slims! I mean… Make real hunters out of new warrior predlings. 2.5 weeks and you’re going to need it!

My squad is a combo of nester and death squad. We all run support with bolt action sniper, sub machine gun, ammo bags, and health bags. Perks are double time iron lungs.

We camp 1 spot maintaining constant visual of the team. We wait for the predator to peek out and lose his mask in seconds. After a quick second wind we hunt it down and kill it.

Lead them into the jungle. Try to circle back around trees and rocks to flank the trailing members. Throw random traps, just 2 or 3, and leap over rocks to engage them in brief 1v1 battles. Eventually, they’ll run out of resources. Don’t slam or commit to more than 2 melee attempts per attack.

2. Mission Runners - FT tries to speed the mission quickly and is mainly interested in that but can be very powerful due to perks and class types.
Look for the objectives. Anytime someone pauses to interact, make them pay with a direct plasma hit, or other ranged attack. Anytime they go into a building, look for a high yet far enough away vantage point, and light the place up with fully charged plasma shots. Place traps at interaction sights. Don’t follow into buildings. Consider slamming on anyone that is alone outside keeping watch.

3. Nesters - FT members might contain a hider, a lone sniper, while the rest cling to each other trying to speed the mission- see mission runners.
Recognize teams of three. Check common vantage points for FT overwatch. There is a directional damage marker, so, if you get sniped, rush toward the direction it came from, checking closely for light blue in thermal or a sniper in the brush. Try to punish hard and get the quick claim. Use all your tools of observation, sound bubbles, thermal, and watch the direction AI travel, to locate the hidden player. Play the other three as you would the speed run teams.

As a support you cant run owl and bane. A support can easily be 2 shot by pred with charged shot and love tap

For chasers use disc to down or bear traps with wrist launcher, for the team that pushes obj while there’s a sniper, take the sniper out first, because they’ll get ya when you go for a claim
