So I know that FT doesn’t really need any more help with hunting predators, but I really would love to finally see a human use predator gear against the predator. For example, using a mask to spot the predator, or using predator only weapons like the plasma caster or combistick. Obviously they couldn’t use it as well as a predator, and to keep it fair we could limit what they have access to when it comes to the FT arsenal that way they dont become the new meta super damage sniper build or whatever.
I’ll be honest and say I dont know how you can make it balance, but I would love to see them try.
(the character in the pic is Machiko Noguchi, she helped a Pred hunt down Xenos and was trained by his clan in their ways)
Actual Predator hunter

Didn’t she work with the Predators though to kill xenos?
Like wasn’t she actually considered to be a blooded hunter and respected among the Yautja?
So why would she turn against them?
I do agree with humans using Predator tech
Like advanced STGZ AI units
And elite FT variants
They are stuck to their schedule however and I doubt this is part of it
I’d rather Machiko be her own Predator class

I’m mostly using her as a reference, though she did turn on the Predators and was exiled in the end.
Also she appeared way after the events of the Hunting grounds, so it would be weird to see her so far back in time.
But yeah the schedule really does suck, maybe in the far far future will get something like this.
ehhhhhhh Yeah I guess but those are pretty much just reskin weapons with different effects (the tracker being the only one thats useful)
I want a FT who uses actual predator gear, but obviously thats hard to balance.

god
why do people like this so much
same as when they’re playing dress up in full pred gear, they just look like power rangers. its silly.
Leave pred stuff for pred.
If we can take their tech and make it better (turn it into automatic weapons) why would any human be running around with wristblades, a biomask twice the size of their head, and a combistick?
The way the game handles it is fine.

Don’t pretend that this franchise isn’t a silly idea
Or that the humans being hunted wouldn’t try to reverse engineer Yautja tech to be used against them

This game has two distinct sides, with their own distinct abilities and weapons. The FT already have a plethora of weapons to choose from, yet people are still trying to turn this game into some generic sci-fi shooter with humans running around carrying the same tech as their alien opponent.
If the FT get any more Pred gear then I want to see Preds having the option to pickup and use assault and sniper rifles - let’s see how keen the FT are then to be using the other sides weapons.
Compared to other FPS games there aren’t very many weapons to choose from
That would be cool. Now i wanna shoot a sub machine gun like in the Predator at the fireteam

She was hunted by a predator but gained the predators respect joined the clan hunted with them as a blooded Yautja, refused to hunt humans and was challenged to prove her worthiness of being blooded and lost, became unblooded and returned to human society. Was hired to hunt Yautja from there.

And no the fireteam having thermal vision would be unstoppable, the predator weapons are weak and slow firing so I don’t really care about that but thermal vision and foot print tracking would be ungodly op.
I’ll have to get around reading those books one day
Do you remember what the title was?
Aliens vs predator comics the title of one of them is “war” I can’t remember the others
This is, I think, her first comic appearance in the universe.
