4 v 4 v 1 is what is needed.

I’ve been with this forum and the game since day one. At this current point in the state of the game, in my opinion I think 4 Fire Team members versus 4 Stargazer members versus 1 Predator should be implemented. I think it will continue to reduce Predator wait times and also provide valuable playtime for both human and Predator.

Multiple game types under this game mode could be implemented from search and destroy to obtain OWLF technology (capture the flag type mode).

I agree it would be dope. But it would positively increase predator wait times. Now you have to find 8 people. But none the less this would be super fun

Reminds me of Batman Arkham origins multiplayer, 4v4 elimination while you have Batman and robin or the child predator in this case then I’d say this could be a really really fun fucking mode. A stealthy predator was in crossfire between owlf and the cartel or some shit like that. Now that you put this idea in my head, I need it 😂 could be the lone wolf leaked game mode tho? 1 predator against 2 teams of 4s, so the 1 pred would be the lone wolf

Oof true, reality crushes dreams I guess. The only way I’d see this game mode not die is if 1 person was randomly selected as the predator out of the 9 person lobby, if you have a preference for preddy in this mode then you have an increased chance to get him maybe?

That’s actually super simple but effective yes

It really could be easily implemented. A simple elimination mode could be the first type. Not much would need to be changed. You could keep the same intros for the Predator and the Fire Team/Stargazer teams. FT and SG spawns opposite of each other. Predator spawns somewhere between the two. Remove objectives. Reinforcement radio still can be implemented to the team that reaches it first. Helicopter Exfil can also still be used to escape the Predator.

I think that sounds badass

4 v 4 v 2 I think would be more interesting, or some other variants, but yeah, we need player soldiers fighting player soldiers, this was suggested few times now.

Two predators in the same match would be overkill. It would also not reduce Predator wait times.

Technically if the game is intending to stick to the Predator lore, you can’t have two Yautja in the same hunting ground. But that’s based on the Honor Code. Not what the movies follow.

and when the 8 human players just kill the predator first?

What if, shockingly, all 8 players will decide to kill the single predator first? Now that is an overkill my freind.

EDIT : Also, when it comes to sticking to the lore so much - combistick vs kitchen knife = dead predator…

Am i out of the loop here? 4 Stargaze members? explain.

That is a good idea, but someone had mentioned that but said there would be a chance they would team up to hunt the predator and if thiers somethin to prevent that it would be fine, but i suggested the same except 3 predators to prevent that problem. Also would maybe help the pred que times since it would be 3 predators to every session instead of 1. I like the concept tho forsure.

Does he mean 4 friendly bots?

No 4 fire team vs 4 opposing fire team so 8 live players total plus the predator or in what I thought 3 preds may be balanced

dude that would be hell for predator.

can you picture playing predator and 8 people with LMGs lighting you up? yea no thanks…

on that note, we probably need a Stargazer skin which would be pretty neat!

Eight players against the Predator is a possibility but you all forget that the game will not be in its current state. They will continue to make adjustments to both Fire Team and newly added Stargazer and the Predator. There are still plenty of kinks that need to be worked out.

In addition why would two teams make a decision to team up when their objective is to eliminate the opposition. The two teams could easily turn on each other for a win.

The Predators learning curve is high, which is a good thing. If the predator is going to be taking on eight players I would hope that this would be an experienced player and intelligent enough to know when to engage and when not to.

Also, if the Predator is eliminated in the game, it’s further proof that this would be a great concept. Each team would have to fight over the corpse. This would further improve game value for fire team/stargazer.

There’s too much emphasis that the predator should eliminate the entire squad. It’s not exactly the point in my opinion. The developers did not specifically determine that if all fire team members are not eliminated it’s a loss for the predator. Everyone just assumes it is. Hunting is not an exact art. There are successful hunts and there are unsuccessful hunts. You learn from each engagement.
