Anyone else bail if someone's using XP perk?

#1

I usually check out everyone’s loadout before a match to gauge if they’re noobs or taters.

If I see more than one XP symbol I don’t even bother. At this point in the game, playing with noobs is way too frustrating. I’m fine with helping one guy learn the ropes but two is fucking lacing up the clown shoes and squeaking through the jungle…

• Carrying the entire match because objectives are vague in description and execution.

• Doing all the damage because early weapons are trash… (seriously they need to rename the QR-4 to the DOA, why is this gun so fucking useless yet have the best reloading animation?)

• Inability to counter basic Predator tactics due to inexperience

• Not knowing maps, so they wander aimlessly because there’s a bad guy shooting at them

• Not understanding the concept of noise suppression (you guys need to put this as well as many other tips in the loading screens; using suppressors and melee will keep you from alerting guards and the predator… duh)

The list goes on, but I will not.

Maybe there should be some kinda ranking system to separate people who want to play with other sexual tyrannosauruses and not these slack jawed faggots. I spit on their clown shoes.

I shrug and knuckle up. Odds are pred is just as new anymore and it’s not like I’m guaranteed a better group of randoms next lobby. 3 xp buffs with shotguns and/or mini’s? Well at least I’ll have plenty of maneuverability

I just use as an opportunity to try to solo hunt the pred. I fully expect to die, but I’m going to annoy the fuck out of him first

Nah if they have an xp perk I will actively defuse instead of letting pred blow up like usual… Gotta help others level up somehow

Honestly no tho. Haha the gameplay is extremely straight forward. They need a firing range like other games have where you can test weapons actual damage from different ranges. Cause the stats in game are absolutely no help and if anything misleading. People be bringing shit load outs but they’d have no way of knowing

It’s really a combination of a lack of introduction to FT and Predator Loadout Buliding and FT Tutorial in general besides the overall first person shooter experience, as well as people being clueless and just immediately going into Queue.

Run a sniper, stay mudded af, watch and listen for the pred. Catch him trying to pop a caster shot off on a teammate. B O O M. One shot in the mask. Did it twice just yesterday. The pred can’t shoot what he can’t see. You gotta stay incognito and provide for your team

Lol I ment the tutorial.

Although I am seriously considering another series, one specifically dealing with how to counter plasma spammers since I’m getting tired of people bitching about them

I only leave the lobby if the predator player is a complete noob because the match would be really boring.

Wait until you run into a guy with the XP perk on, no gear whatsoever and using Duelist while having no Pistol equipped.

Talk about hitting the trifecta.

All the stuff u mentioned is c tier.

All u need is 4 good naders… good gernade team is a dead pred in seconds

Already have. I’m thinking there was just some wave of toddlers that got access to this game. Really drags everything down.
