Another Audio Decoy solution

More sounds/random sounds isn’t necessarily better. They just give more of a cue that it’s a decoy.

In fact an experienced team can differentiate between the pred and a decoy by just listening to the intervals between clicks.

My idea is that decoys should mimic certain sounds in real time as the predator makes them.
Examples: when the predator clicks the decoys do an exact imitation too.
When the pred activates/deactivates cloak and/or Vision, the decoys do as well.
Killing/Eating pigs yes.
We don’t need decoys playing fireteam sounds, AI sounds or whatever else.

We don’t need them playing unnecessary sounds that ultimately tell the Fireteam: “hey I’m a decoy. Don’t listen to me. The pred is somewhere else”

Would love if they stuck on surfaces as well.

Trying to land a decoy on a roof, to have it bounce off like a basketball is silly lol.

Yea I made another thread awhile ago covering why they should be sticky.

One gripe i have with the human voices with the Audio Decoy is that they sound indistinguishable and I tend to dart back just to see if there actually are FT over there.

I also have a gripe with the basketball audio decoy bouncing around aimlessly. WTF is up with that?
I would suggest the stick thing too or at least give it should just land where it impacts the ground.

Why not make the Predator silent during the duration of the decoy.

Or maybe add button with wheel of sounds ike regular one which pred can use remotely

I thought of this as well however on console keybinds are in short supply. Which is why I didn’t propose that idea.

If the predatorize the human voices like want some candy it would be much better

On top of making them sticky

I would Like this. Sticky as well.

Also maybe make tree noises as well. If they do stick to object idk

Good idea

I hope the audio decoys do get reworked because I don’t use healing kits so I really rely on those decoys to drive fireteam members away x’D

I wish that was a more viable solution. there are definitely times where I wish I didn’t have to spend five points on a med kit nor do I wish that I had to figure out pig spawns

Yeah
Btw pig spawns near fireteam like 90% of the time so that kinda sucks :/
