About Fireteam: Hunting Grounds...

#1

@Kassinaillia i want you to show this directly to your bosses at illfonic. no censoring, no nothing pls :)

Fireteam: Hunting Grounds. Yeah thats what its called now

and we. fucking. hate it.

heres a definition of the word balance if you need it: a condition in which different elements are equal or in the correct proportions.

you clearly needed that right there, just admit it already

anways, back to the “game”

the damn game is supposed to be about predator, not 4 weirdos pointing guns into thin air, firing, and shooting a mask off randomly (75% of the time)

like, as a fireteam main myself, it isnt really fun killing the predator anymore. most of us enter the jungle with a fear factor of absolute zero, and come out with the same.

and when i do play predator and come across a decent fireteam (at least second winding me and finding me eating a pig) they land every shot with either the hammerhead (ok-a little bit op) or the SAWZ (highly overpowered) and i either am forced to use plasma a lot or die. one or the other

and again, speaking as a fireteam main, whenever the predator comes in for a melee attack, i almost always parry and second wind. you cant parry when out of stamina, right? so the game says? well the answer is no, you can parry for literally forever. and it gets boring. the only counters are to either use the hook, axe, or back up and use plasma/ranged weapon

the perks, too. thick skin makes dante basically invincible. and with both dutches. yautja’s bane just adds more to the imbalance, and double time makes practically any class except support able to run across Airstrip in less than 3 seconds.

specs are…ok i guess. wait, no they arent. Field medic HAS to be nerfed to 3.5 seconds AT LEAST. the other specs either don’t work or are bugged into meta-ness

well thats most of the fireteam covered, but theres probably more

lets get into the predator now.

The only two things that are annoying are the battle axe and the hook.

the axe does way too much damage, and the hook is way too fast. thats about it for predator.

BUG SECTION

yeah, every 5-6 games i crash. every 3 out of said crashes caused my playstation to freeze, and i end up having to pull the plug and restart it. that fucking annoys me.

predators spazzing out, weapon tracking going into the sky, etc

its VERY inconvenient. thats about it for bugs too, although again i am sure that there are more

ILLFONIC ITSELF SECTION

(excludes @Kassinaillia as she is just a moderator)

you guys suck. a lot. like, one of the worst gaming studios in the US.

You hardly listen to the community, jack up great games/franchises, poorly design the predators (wolf mainly) and never bother to fix anything. you just give us more skins and shit. thanks a lot.

on another note, you dont even care. as i am typing this, as players are experiencing bugs and other bullshit, you are producing 2 new games as if PHG doesn’t exist. well it does. and it’s on life support. im very surprised that it isnt dead by now. or cast unceremoniously into the garbage bin. whatever.

to sum it up, Fireteam: Hunting Grounds is a complete disaster, waste of everyone’s time, and just a load of fuckery and memes. illfonic can also be described as this too.

i dont even know why im giving 5 minutes of my valuable time to type all this.

and finally, the poll. (if youll listen)

This game needs to be shut down. its just for the best, we all know it. but since you guys up in Philly no longer care, all im going to do is make this poll to go on strike against all of illfonic. as in, not playing their games, not buying dlcs, and any other type of bullshit. this time you have to listen, as it may very well decide the fate of your shameful little company.

SHOULD WE PROTEST?

  • Yes, scew illfonic
  • no, illfonic and PHG is cool

have a moderate day.

I won’t buy anymore games or dlc but I’m going to play PHG it’s fun on occasion, probably every once or twice every two weeks I’ll get on. (Can you possibly add a vote for not buying anything new, but still playing what you have.)

I wouldnt show this to my dog. Too many grammatical errors.

However no need to protest. No ones buying Ghostbusters who bought phg. I don’t know how arcadegeddons doing but probably not much better than this. I think they’re comfortable not making waves and just collecting paychecks. Stable work is what most Americans strive for.

Just go play evil dead.
I already made a post saying to shut the game down.

Your post wouldn’t convince anyone to shut down cause you only covered the very surface.
Either way you seem really bothered.
It’s not worth the stress.
Go play evil dead.

It’s a better franchise anyways.

you potator.

If you don’t win 99% pub games as pred ,something’s wrong with your skill.

game is balanced around random people playing random games.

if you want a challange, go play private games where you can customize stats and settings.

Have not played this game in quite some time since FT is an exercise in frustration alone and I don’t really find predator that fun (for any length of time) but back when I did, I had like 80-90% win rates on pred (similar on FT just as well). How much do you need? Are you really that bad? Since I was around decent at most. I bet all the predators that complain in this forums for like 2 years now are those people incapable of doing anything more then melee. Try leaping + arrowing, see how powerful that tactic is, then again, that takes actual skill.

The only thing that actually needs balancing is that damn cave map. More so if someone has those radar things, there is no way to approach the team and not get smoked(inside cave).

PS. Yes, a damn good premade smoked me most often then not but considering how much I used to win, did not really cared much. Good premades are rare, like really rare.

Ironically no my friend, the ones that complain the most are actually the ones who win 99% on either side. Isn’t that crazy?

I agree that the balance in the game is bad, but guys, it seems to me it’s time to calm down with the topic about balance, developers don’t care, so don’t waste your nerves and just enjoy the game, if you want balance, then go to private matches, there you can adjust the balance as you like.

Personally, I’m not even going to play private matches without certain settings that will make the match fair for both sides,

@Savage3i3
Ya see? You get too many ppl who think pubs matter.
Its ridiculous but these are people who refuse to listen to reason.

It’s a lost cause and people like this ruin many games.
Like smite, destiny, paragon, ect.

recharged degenerate

I gave them many, MANY chances. But at the same time know that Disney has got a stick up their ass. Hopefully Prey’s release will bring some staff back to this game

Yes you are.

#18

i stated this from the perspective of a fireteam main

i actually do win most of my few pred matches

#19

Then are you complaining about the game (as FT) being too easy?

#20

I do play plenty of srpgs, but that’s for a different crowd. Watch UMVC3 halls of hype. Pretty fun community. (From freerey post)

#21

Srpgs?
Like what?

#22

Disgaea 2 is a more famous one. I’m doing a lower lever, no grinding self imposed challenge

But there’s also Spectral Souls, Blazing Souls, Knights in the Nightmare, Gungnir (all PSP games). Graphics such but gameplay has depth and challenge to it.
