It should be reworked to avoid it!s use recklessly.

I agree that would be a great idea if they add the predator ship and force the predator to have to swap out batteries they could even do like how in concrete jungle he recharges by sticking his wrist blades into electrical grids. We seen weistblades open locks so make sense they can do the same with recharging on ship. This will force predator to be smarter. Conserve their shots.use their other equipmentā¦also another thing I hope they fix is the Infinite full heals a predator gets from infinitely spawning pigs. Should only.be a set amount on the map letās say 10 pigs and they should give the fireteam ability to booby trap the pig with explosive or make it so one pig only heals like a third life. Nerf the heal amount like ft was nerfed with their heal, they nerf both injectors and the thrown heal packs. Used to heal to full health and health pack 4 heals now its only 2 and partial heals
Good ideas but it will take the Predator an eternity to go and get a new battery from his ship every time he overloads his energy and the Fireteam will just complete the mission in 3 mins flat while he does it.
Also itās not like the Fireteam canāt just face camp all the Predatorās pigs because they know all the spawn locations of them. The Pred already had to decloak and then cloak again when he does the animation to eat one. Let alone the scream the pig somehow makes even though it is dead.
You donāt play as Predator much do you?
And I can safely assume not against premades in privates either where the Predator has to play better than the Fireteam every game if he wants to win and not make a single mistake.
Fix the glitch and then itās perfect.
Yeah I dont think you understand that pred would have to deal more damage for this to be balanced.
And pigs are fine.
Dude. What I mentioned is a whole rework where the game plays like wildlands, on extreme difficulty.
So each mission would take 20-30 min, and you have to play stealthy.
Pred does way more damage, and his cloak and gear is better.
No target iso, but something to get a general idea where theyāre at.
Way bigger maps so pred spends first 10 min hunting, or, prepping traps.
Itās a whole rework.

This is an old idea from long ago.
It would require more stealth play.
Tho for the most part ft would stay where itās at.

It is a great idea.
Would require a lot of changes thoughā¦
Longer amd harder missions. AI rework. No scanning and no Tracker for Pred. Mud should put FT completely invisible. FT footprints visible for longer. FT blood trail. Pred should have a lot more traps and more difficult to spot but it could be disarmed or boobie trapped so it can trap the Pred. It should be funā¦

Youd still be able to able to scan, Just not tag.
Meaning you could see perks, gear, ect.
Once some one is scanned you can do a bit of extra damage to them.
Mud blocks thermal but not regular vision.
Different vision modes as well.
No reversing pred traps, but ft can get claymores, mines, ect.
Also it depends on the trap and the tier.
Add a gear tier system.
So, lv traps can be seen and possible disabled, but lv 3 cant be detected or disabled.
Iāve mentioned stuff like this before. I think at least 25 times.
I had a lot of good ideas and I used try to get other people to join and work them out.
Stopped the cause ilfonic.
But I also want more.
More biomes.
City, military base, mountain, ect.
The ability to shoot plasma through walls.
The ability to destroy buildings and walls, collapse a roof on ft, or pred.
More interactions with the environment.
Pred being able to sabotage ft missions and calls for back up or extraction.
Theres a bunch of shit.
But Iād give pred an area that ft cant enter or attack, that they canāt reach where the preds ship is at so they can restock and heal. Its not the only place they can heal it restock but the safest.
Anyway theres a million things.
Those ideas are so not Illfonic.

Exactly.
I play predator as much as fireteam and at first in the beginning it was challenging now itās not most ft members suck. I have played it recently and that is why Iām pointing out things I see that make predator have zero skill especially when you got plasma caster spammers. Itās not even fun playing against ft most of the time cause itās so rare tk find a team that knows what their doing I have more fun playing with them cause I know as the predator I can take a lot of hits. Itās funny when people who actually suck at playing get upset when people suggest nerfs even good nerfs that require a predator player to have more skill. The only thing you gotta know with a predator is when to pull out to either eat a pig or use one of your med kits. Both are unable to be destroyed by fireteam.
Nah they maKe the game easy as predator. They could use tweaking so they donāt infinitely respawn itās not challenge when you have unlimited number of full healths waiting for you. All a predator has to do is know when to pull out to heal. Either through med kit or pigs. Changes should be stop unlimited spawn of pigs. Make pigs destroy able just like health packs and crates are for fireteam and reduce the heals they do. Any of those would make it so it requires skill again to be a predator beyond knowing when to pull back to heal which is like 75 percent of skill level required for most predators.
Ok. Go play against a group that knows what their doing then tell me if the healing is going to carry you that much.
Ft still has the advantage, severely. Takes skill to play pred.

Only skill is knowing when to pull out to heal but thanks for letting know how little skill you have if you cant win against a good fireteam without unlimited ammo and health. The very fact that I just gave several options to make it a challenge again ND you get triggered about any tweaks that actually make it a challenge to play as predator again is very telling of the predator only players now. Again I play both and I can see how op the predator is. Since launch fireteam been nerfed non stop only true update they got that helped them was the specializations but even they were nerfed so they donāt help as much anymore. Face predator playing requires zero skill. You literally have a recharging button that points you to every pig on the map. Fireteam has the survey drone but it requires it as a gear used. Another thing they can do is if they remove the auto locator button the predator and turn it into a gear option. Even that would maKe it more challenging as the predator if you actually gotta search the map like fireteam does for health. Predator will still have the advantage with heat vision to find pigs. Heck how about fireteam gets thermal scopes? I am at least giving suggestions. To better the game for both sides. Not wanting it to change cause it wouldnāt be easy any more for you as predator is not arguement. Itās suppose to be challenging on both sides. I donāt see that with the predator. Itās to easy

Dude, whatās with all the small dick energy?
All I said, was go see if the healing carries you against a good team.
Thatās it. I didnt question or attack your skill, I didnt write you a book telling you youāre stupid or anything like that.
Look at your response then look at mine.
How am I triggered?
Idk why my response upset you so much.
Do you play privates?
Cause anyone who plays vs the good players will struggle, it aināt going to be easy.
Pred is not op.
Ft damage is op.
Thatās it.
So if youāre coming in here with all this bravado trying to show off or convince people, all its going is making you look like a fool cause theres no need for it.
What Iām getting from what you said is that you struggle on ft.
Also pigs are extremely inconsistent. And you can lose 50% hp and even more in like 1-2 sec as pred vs anyone who can aim. Meaning every encounter you have to trade damage.
Unless youāre using disk but that only works really well on pc.
And one last thing.
Until I actually started playing ft, I never considered them op.
You understand that?
I only called ft op and having the advantage after I started playing them. Cause thatās how easy ft is.
I need to make sure you understand that Iām talking as a hybrid and from my ft side mostly.

Dude your a child you canāt formulate a arguement on simple subject. All you have are insults. I have played good teams and those were the best matches. You are triggered and itās funny you call my comment a story when you just wrote one just as long. Predator has infinite energy and health with the ability to press a button find it on the map. If you canāt win against a good team with those advantages then you must suck as a predator. I came expecting a intelligent conversation of how to improve the game I notice how you try ignore all my suggestions that would make both sides more even and canāt come up with any counter arguments against them. The fool here is you and your childish response. You donāt even provide any perks, specializations, gears or classes as examples of why they are OP your just triggered someone wants to change the game that will take away the easy setting on playing the predator. You say you play both and yet you canāt even address any suggestions for game balancing I have suggested. Pigs are are not inconsistent they always spawn and respawn. Usually in the same places. Neither does it take 1-2 seconds to drop a predator to 50 percent health with any fireteam weapon maybe at launch yah but not anymore. Your arguement is anecdotal with zero facts behind it.
