Every 5 or so games, the chopper is being called at 11 min mark. As pred, I barely have time to find them and terrorize them and then the match is over. The queue + lobby takes twice as long as the match. Make the missions longer and more intricate. And honestly I wouldn’t mind if the FT team had 5 or 6 people. The mission is too short. No one dies. Especially not me. I’m just like well what’s the point in engaging–they’re just here to do a mission and leave in 4 min. It’s like what am I supposed to do jump in with the whole 4 man group just to get a kill and then run and go heal while the rest of them escape? I would rather just sit and watch them escape. There’s not enough time for me to pick them off one by one or wait for my spots. Kind of pointless. It would be better if the mission took them 10 min and they had 5 or 6 people. Or change the randomly generated missions so that the chopper is far away from the mission and mission is far away from spawn. I just had a headquarters map where no one went to the headquarters. It was the beach hotel and then to the chopper near the ruins across the water and that was the mission. 4 min.
Choppers at 4 minutes
I’ve seen faster. And we’ve all been saying this since day 1. They’re not going to do anything. It would require a rework of fundamentals they’re unable or unwilling to do.
As FT this is also boring
Plz add objectives or timers or something
The game should only be short due to one side stomping a mudhole in the other
This is higher level game play. The pred isn’t just fighting the FT. Against smart, good FT players you’re fighting the clock too.
I can appreciate that but I think the queue time just makes it worse. I don’t mind fighting the clock, but there’s a certain amount of time that should be reasonable for me to do my thing. Also, like I said, the FT didn’t even go to the headquarters in the headquarters mission. It just feels off / not fun when it’s 4min - 4.5 min game vs an 8 min game. I mean I could just run in and start downing people I guess as soon as I see them but I like to have fun and stuff too. It’s not super competitive to me. I’m not out to prove anything. Not only that, I don’t feel like I lost in these matches, even though I technically did. If you do your mission in 4 min and you do basically little to no damage to me and I don’t use second wind and you’re just running to the chopper as fast as you can its like ehh thanks for visiting. Doesn’t really feel like I lost because they were better than me–more like the auto-generated mission was kind of janky and short. It’s just not fun I think is the most important part of it.
I’ve played against you before and I know you’re new. I don’t know what you were off doing but we were doing a fairly obvious objective (2 players) and you couldn’t find us even while 1 of us wasn’t mudded + dealing with A.I
If you want to find FT sooner,
-
Run in front of A.I in their camps to make them declare alarms, which means they will be targeted towards Fireteam.
-
Learn Spawns.
-
You’re not supposed to run in immediately as your first play (if they’re all grouped up obviously. If they’re separated, then hell yea, slice that idiot up.)
-
Learn to conserve your Health. Preform Hit and Run tactics, don’t stay in one place often.
But obviously some missions are actually bullshit with how fast they can be if you preemptively complete parts like Destorying Jammers in the Exposure mission before they even become relevant, or with how short/One Area Based they are like Safe Hunt or Toxic.
I agree for the most part. We’ve all said for a very long time certain missions are incredibly short and unfair. The unfortunate truth is regardless of what you or I think is “fun” in this game others may not. Their fun is strictly in winning at any cost and a successful exfil is a win.
You explained your style in great detail and your stealth gaming experience in a previous post and I tried explaining that this game doesn’t really reward that. This is one of the ways. The other is immensely more frustrating unfortunately. Despite all the feedback we’ve given over the past year and a half, this seems to be what the devs want the game to be so this is what we have to work with.
You have no idea what you’re talking about. I’m level 150 and win 90% of my games +. If you had 2 people, I would have easily beat you. I just beat 3 people with just throwing the combi stick and let them res each other as much as they wanted. I don’t think you have played against me. If so, prove it with a video. I win against 4 people all the time. The only reason I’m tlaking about 4 min games is that it’s boring.
I just got a combi stick double kill throw 2 games ago and jumped around asking for the unreal tournament sound effect. How are you going to beat me with 2 people? I’ve never lost to 2 people.
I couldn’t find you when one of you wasn’t mudded up? You think I don’t know how to use target isolation? I come from an MMO stealth char backgroudn where we had 40 skills. Predator has 3 skills or something.
Well sorry man it’s just hilarious when people negate my feedback by saying “you’re new.” I’m level 150 and have 500+ claims. I literally win 90% of my matches. WTF. Go post in another thread. Get off the forums
While I may have been quick to say that you shared the exact same name as someone I played against, but I literally did play against a “tanjo” that used a Default Fervent Hunter Pred.
If you’re level 150, you wouldn’t have a problem finding FT in the span of a minute or two, especially with experience.
I never said we beat you lmao. What happened was that I and a random were doing objectives and said Pred with the same exact name couldn’t find us for like 5 whole minutes, finally found us, and pulled up rookie moves like getting in our faces with Combi-Stick out ready to throw and stuff.
I don’t believe I have a video recorded against you and I may honest be misremembering. Do you mind if you can share your name on Steam so I can make sure?
So…I’m going to say this once and the I’m going to put you on ignore because quite frankly if I wanted to argue with a brick wall I’d be talking to my wife instead of reading on the forums.
If you’re response to every one giving you a counter opinion and advise from their own experience, is to brag about in-game achievements the majority of players here achieved a year before you even got the game you’re simply going to have to suffer a lot. Learn to not take everything people say as an insult and actually try to listen to their perspective and you will get much better results. Not just here but in life in general.
You are new by comparison to the regulars on this forum. That is not a negative thing. You do not own the forums and do not have the right nor the respect to tell people to get off. Get over yourself, mature a little, and listen a lot.
Good bye now
See, I kinda thought something was real fishy when he got that heated because of me saying…idk, something.
I don’t even get the MMO Flex. Like, okay, you’re probably balding like all MMO Players but that’s besides the point.
THANK YOU YOU DONT NEED TO POST IN MY THREADS EVERY FUCKIN TIME I POST GOOD BYE
bro i just said in my thread that i found them at the beach hotel and the match was over in 4 min. how do i not know how to find someone?
there’s no way youre talking about me bcuz i just started using the combistick yesterday. i used the scythe and the sword before that. gtfo of my life you weirdos. you ppl post too much
bro this is a result of my last thread saying playing pred is too easy. i do win 90% of games.
and anyway its not a flex. if you think thats a flex i feel sorry for you. playing pred is EZ. easy to win. easy. 4 min games simply arent fun. they arent hard. its just a waste of time. like replying to your asses.
if i wanted to flex, id talk about my k/d ratio being the highest on my mmo server lol.
I don’t know the deal, don’t care anymore. Tried to be nice and helpful and now I’m not.
bro arent you supposed to be gone
