This isn’t a TDM
Change available secondaries
You gotta create challenge it seems. I’m playing with friends and we’re doing grenade launcher main with minigun secondary right now. It’s hilarious. Unfortunately preds will still see some of our names and recognize us and leave the match before seeing what we’re doing.
Nor is it CSGO, or COD, or even Dead By Daylight.
One person that doesnt miss any combi throws while bouncing the 1 shot disc around singlehandedly cleared out lobbies but I digress
Do you have a point in comparing rock paper scissors TDM brawler avp to a 4v1 game in a 4v1 genre?
you talk about skill and then you go “this isnt CSGO tryhards completely breaking the game is fine because they get bored and leave.”
Some Premade running only Grenades Launchers, Frags & the Merc dressed in bright yellow & orange, caught me off guard earlier today on Airstrip whilst I was relaxing with a Hunter build. They came out of nowhere with nothing but explosions so Impen proved useless and they never muddied up so Tracker & Observant went out the window too. That was a rough 7 minute back & forth lemme tell ya. Even tried to chase too, wonder I made it out of a few engagements considering next to a Scout with Long Jump a plain old Hunter is as slow as a geriatric. But hey ho, a few Nets & plasma bolts later and I manage to down them enough to pull a win out my ass.
Wouldn’t happen to have been you guys would it? Then again your name is different so I doubt it.
Nah, wasn’t us. We are a PC squad in the Hostile camo (bright yellow and orange), grenade launchers, and minigun, but I don’t remember having run into you today.
Because all half the guys on here do is brag about their own skill then come back after a loss or two and say the game is busted and needs to be rebalanced but half of them end up dodging or sending others to do the dirty deed for 'em when pressed on it. Simple as, some people need to stop complaining because the game ain’t as much as a mess as they think it is. Forums need more than the same old 15 people making the same old 10 or so threads about a game they say they hate and the Devs have failed at.
yah but most time a good ft will mark that pig in their head

the game is utter disgrace to the franchise… wait till disney makes a predator movie… it will be the end of the franchise period
Damn, everyone out here running Candy Corn camo. We may need a brand change at some point. You guys sound like fun though, the others I fought were all PS4 so it definitely wasn’t you. How about we play some time if you’re free? Always looking for new matches.
If the game is such a disgrace then why are you here playing it and talking about it? Take some meds, grandpa. The mouse is evil and fucks up a lot of things, but Predator movies haven’t been good since 2 and the series has lived entirely off of the Expanded Universe material & crossovers with Aliens since then. We’ll be fine.
AvP movie franchise & The Predator bombed and we’re a direct to dvd franchise now. Straight to hulu with no theatrical release.
They’ll keep Alien as theatre-worthy but pred is on its way out and treated like a B-movie.
Pred hasn’t been respected as a theatrical series since the 90s. Hell even then everyone hated Predator 2 when it first came out and said only the first movie was good. Nothing has changed and nothing will change. At this point Predator & Alien exist more as Comic Book & Video Game IPs than they do movies, since they haven’t had good ones in over 3 decades each.
My normal squad is @JelouGaming and @BeerWarrior66 but I’m always down to play with more people. Since I’m on Epic, you’d need to link an Epic account to your PSN account for us to be able to friend up. My Epic is DPRK Chopra (same as on the forums but space instead of underscore)
Next to Predator 1, Predator 2, Alien & Aliens: the things both franchises seperately & together have produced with as much cultural impact & quality reception has been their Comic storylines, the video games & the toys. These series have lived off of Comics, Games & toylines since the 90s and continue to do so. Stuff like Darkhorse’s work & AVP2 & Concrete Jungle go down as the highest quality outputs both have had since their original two movies.
Oh cool. I’ve fought Jelou a few times already. And I used to play with Beer too. He’s a really fun dude to have around. Absolute mad lad.
These are film franchises. Licensed media is beholden to the films; not the other way round.
They aren’t doing well as games for a decade now, I don’t recall avp2010 performing well. I doubt we even get another avp until they just throw something out to maintain the ip in another 5 years.
I’ll give you Alien Isolation but Aliens FT is a reskinned World War Z, PHG is equally low faith albeit its an original idea. Both running on a budget of silly string and prayers. Colonial Marines?
Even these games are fucking outsourced to contractors not established dev studios lol.
Darkhorse is out the door. Its time for Disney traced art now.
AVP Gold & 2 are regarded as some of the best FPS ever made for their time. Even 2010 is regarded in high esteem despite its flaws for being so damn fun. The first FPS AVP game on the Jaguar was legit the ONLY reason to buy that console. The AVP arcade game by Capcom is another cult classic & one of the best Beat 'Em Ups on the Market. Same with Concrete Jungle, beloved by the fanbase and everyone still clamours for a sequel or remaster, just anything for it. And then there’s other classics like Alien Trilogy, AVP Extinction & Alien Isolation. Historically & statistically, both IPs have always done better in gaming markets than they have done theatrical markets for over the past 30 years. And considering movies are nowhere near as big as gaming is now and are essentially dying due to a variety or economical, quality & post-pandemic reasons, that’s not set to change anytime soon: especially with both franchises only having 2 good films respectively.
On a statistical level, both franchises have pumped out more quality products in gaming alone than they ever have done theatrically. And that’s not even getting in to the Comic lines. Darkhorse was a beast for its time and the Comics form the cornerstone for basically EVERYTHING we have about the two IPs to this day that isn’t lifted from the original movies. Hunting Grounds itself runs on a ton of Darkhorse-era backdrop & logic. And the sales numbers of the Kenner toylines, and the NECA & McFarlane lines to this day speak for themselves.
It may be sad to say, but neither Alien or Predator has been primarily movies franchises in a LONG time, and even more so they haven’t had anywhere near the quality in their movies that every other aspect of the IPs have had since.
Thats why I said decade.
Everythings been relegated to low faith outsourced shit and will more than likely stay that way because no one wants to play low faith outsourced shit with an alien paint on it and they interpret this as people just no longer caring about the franchise.
Rebellion ran off to go make 3 zombie army games instead.
Games are DEAD have you seen this E3 lol. Have you seen last E3? Triple A studios monopolize the talent for 3 major releases a year and everything else is low budget indie shit or cell-shaded calarts walking sims that are all just carbon copies of eachother like the tech and creativity has just completely stagnated for the cost.
PS3 was the golden era. What we have now is just microtransaction live service battle royales moreso on console because people only want to gamble on what works. It was like this before muh pandemic excuses, the industry started killing itself as soon as major investors got involved and games just became super safe imitations of eachother as a result.
