Some truth in that!
I did not have a significant FPS drop others experience due to the update (I have a PS4 PRO(!)) - so, nothing has changed for me.
But, when I think back to my very first games, I really had massive problems with said low FPS on PS4 - I felt like beeing drunken and a little bit disoriented (OK, this might be a “deep forward pass” for jokes, I see:).
So, it seems, that meanwhile my brains has adapted to this already - somehow.
The human brain sometimes really is magic, huh…
I’m on PS4, i love the cloak now but you can still spot him coming if he’s using the trees. Branches still shake and drop leaves, can follow him in and snipe still. Maybe not lining up perfect mask shots but you can still make pred second guess.
Yes the fear is back. Still beatable and punished severely for mistakes. Stealth and stalk are an option now…so long as the mission isn’t done in 3 minutes
Or when you’re trying to listen for the Predator and all you can hear is Zeus flapping his lips about some bullshit🤣 Like seriously boss, STFU for 2 secs!!! I’m being hunted here…but you already knew that didn’t you, you snake Zeus!!
VOODOO CUT THE RADIO CHATTER THEY KNOW YOU’RE HERE!!!
Says the only guy talking on comms.
🤣🤣 Right 🤣🤣
without the spirit of acrimony, take a good look at your sight. frame drops and low frames have been in ps4 pro from the beginning I have one and play it on a very good screen. Compare the frame rate with any fps, barely half
fuck. Why not also remove the sound when walking, the clicks, the movement of the brush when moving, and put an ability to go through walls. and the lack of frames of that you do not ask for anything, that they lower it more … some of us play the balanced and functional game, but I see many people who only complain when the changes do not benefit them. I complain about both sides because I try to play them equally. In the same way that I complain about the tracking of the pred weapons, which is very bad, I see that the improvement of the layer is good but since the fps are not as important to play in 3rd person, as in the first person, the pred main does not notice, but you only need to play in 1st person to see it and in the new mode so fast the fps are a real torture
Interesting. I’m quite new to the PS4 - so I did not know…
Once upon a time, shortly after the extinction of the dinosaurs they invented TV. Shortly afterwards the television got color aaaand 60HZ. You know, 60 (!) Hz…
I thought 30 FPS had been extinguished together with the dinosaurs, no?..
unfortunately on ps4 they are not extinct XD. by the way I like your humor
I posted on another topic the drawbacks. I’ve played 5 pred matches and won 4 of them and the only one I lost was a guy going rogue and calling exfil while I killed the other three. Fact of the matter is the techniques and tactics I learned in 2.03 are a nightmare for FT now that cloak is effective.
I’ve also played roughly 17 FT matches and maybe only 4 were wipes, the rest were self destruct or straight FT wins. Maybe the range of cloak effectiveness needs to be extended a little bit but we’re a major step in the right direction here.
Ultimately I still think a teamwork based tutorial for fireteam would be the ultimate balance act. If FT work together and lay down punishment when the Predator is near then they still win. It’s just the fact that he is a real threat now and I can’t just phone in FT matches like I used to in 2.03
I’m not saying anything against the layer, everyone is very focused on balance, but nobody takes into account that what unbalances the most on ps4: the frames. I am not talking about the need for a tutorial … that is needed, nor about strategies. I’m saying the layer is fine as long as the frame rate is adequate. For example, in the new mode with such a low frame rate, players on the move are out of sight … without the need for an invisible layer. also I do not talk about when you play with randos talking about playing with friends, we are together and if we still win, what I say is that with little movement or few particles on the screen there is not much problem, the problem comes when there are too many actions (people movement, the ai swarming and shooting etc) in those moments is when these problems happen
That I won’t argue then. Optimization is needed.
I took that a little different than you intended i believe, hence my reply
This was just sarcasm, I should have pointed it out, sorry
GOOD!!! FUCK FT!!!
Yeah. You’re probably right about that. It hurts as fireteam, but it’s nice that the bolt action is much harder to abuse now.
Yeah. Zeus gets 1.5 on the volume.
Now I can confirm, that the dependence from speed is fine too! The predator can be seen quite well when in melee - which makes sense. He then also can be snipered easily - so the “fast and far away” fits too, if you ask me.
Everything fine!
Addendum:
When I temporarily died yesterday, I had the opportunity to watch with the view of a PC team mate. Often he saw (and fired on) the predator, where I saw NOTHING.
So, there might still be a difference between PC and PS4. It also might be, that my eyes are not so good:) Or my TV… Or or or…
But, at least, there still seems to be a difference. Nevertheless, I like the PS4 version, which I experience…
