About breaking out of the net extremely fast

Percentage based, so weaker classes escape faster than stronge?

I think it should be based on the percentage of HP they currently have regardless of class. So if you’re low on HP your gonna struggle more compared to half/full HP.

Maybe, wish we had access to test server’s.

My preference is:

Much longer net duration.
However net is broken (or the timer significantly reduced*) when you are attacked by the Predator.
*You could consider the net ‘timer’ like a HP bar.
Ie. Give the net 50HP, and when the Predator attacks, the net takes the same damage as the Predator inflicts to the netted player.

This should turn the net from a “1v1 disable” weapon, to a support\utility option. (Which I feel much better suits its gameplay mechanic as well as it’s lore).
You disable enemies OTHER than the one you plan to attack.

I like this quite a bit, still think the holding option could work with it.

Yeah i like this discussion. Please level out the playing field so that either controller/kbmouse will essentially utilize the same type of mechanic without one having any advantage over the other.

I think they would work perfectly well together. I’d also prefer a “hold” method vs the current “tap” method.

I’d be even fine with you not having to do anything. The timer just instantly starts decaying.
I kinda get why they want it to be an “interact” mechanic, but I don’t think it’s really necessary.

Id prefer hold…i really think tapping is an annoying mechanism. plus save our controllers from going to shit.

Do you know how much pro controllers cost and why most gamers dont use them?

Not sure that really has much do to with the argument. :)

I already broke one of mines. The interact button is now funky. Lol

Costs around the same price of a new game with bonus content. So, what’s the big deal?

I have an Astro C40 TR trust me you don’t need them its just nice to have, it makes certain games easier with the paddles.

Yeah, the mash mechanic is dumb. I use the net knowing its cc for a few seconds max. I try to time it so I can net 3 people, kill and claim and hop out. Then come back later. They should just hold down a button and get out in a few seconds and a good pred will have to do the math on it.

THERE IS A TIMMER… look at patch notes… no matter how fast you tap it still takes about 3-4sec

Illfonic’s patch notes aren’t exactly the most detailed piece of craftsmanship. :P
