Cloak test.

#181

The medkit nerf was a very bad idea because it was made into a void not taking into account how it the support class. Now you have 0 reasons to run support over assault or Dutch. This change should have come with more perk points for support to balance it out. Support was my favorite class, now its really crap (it was in a bad spot before). Why would anyone run it instead of Dutch 87.

Its a good thing they added clash, the change made the game so unfun for me in hunt. I am sure its going to be tweaked when people start hitting the hunt que.

Yes, my English sucks. True. But I fully understand you, another thing is that a mechanic that does nothing, what kind of cloak was before the patch, will not deceive each other, he did nothing - this is bad. This change not only closed a huge hole in the balance but also opened up a ton of tactical variety, and variety is very important for this kind of game. Perhaps the FT lacks protective functionality now, I can agree with this, the anti-cloak of the grenade is complete garbage, for example, like a UAV, and it really would not hurt to improve these aspects, it would not hurt to remove the Yautja bane and make its bonus passive for everyone But what you really donā€™t need to do is roll back the cloak, raise the radius to 60-65 meters, perhaps, but your screams about 100-150 are absurd, which will only return us to the ranged meta and it will not be fun for anyone but you.

Not just him, me also. I hate how cloak works now, it drove me to play clash. It should be 100-150m so you canā€™t sniper across the map but that is it. UAV is garbage because it costs a lot of points, has 2 uses and the meta classes are low gear points and youā€™re not going to trade a ammo bag for that thing.

The problem for those who only play ft is that we have spent a month learning to hunt better, because with all the improvements and new equipment the ft melted us, now pred is a little more scary, but it is as it should be, and pred They have improved, I play both pred and ft, as ft is now more fun and more tense, and as pred a little easier, but if you make a mistake they still melt the ft, by the way I have noticed a very high increase in prefabricated ft , in 2 full days more than 80% of games like pred were against prefabs and now many more people use a microphone, I thought that the balance now is almost perfect, and I continue to use my sniper without problems, you only cover your team instead of d shoot 150 meters

In defense of @VENN7eance I have to say, I know that this does not suit me ā€¦ but suggest someone from ps4 to play with pc to make it challenging ā€¦ it is a bit absurd pc plays with k / m and ps4 with pad . What challenge do you mean to play on equal terms or to face people with a clear advantage when it comes to aiming. How can you tell that to anybody? you donā€™t play with a pad against k / m?if not, you donā€™t say this

Havenā€™t had a match like this since beta šŸ¤©šŸ¤©

Why is it so many folks think the predator shouldnā€™t be feared? Thatā€™s why I personally bought this game. To instill fear but also experience the heart pounding of being chased myself

So you believe rather this being a change that was intended to deal iwht the long range dominance that Ft had that it was done to just decrease overall FT aggression? hmmmmmmm i suppose so the argument youā€™ve given seems pretty reasonable and thought out it does make tracking predators through there blood actually a thing since before they could just outrun you (which for berzerker itā€™s almost still true) never thought about if i would be intended to reduce a behavior so general like aggression i suppose it does make it easier to close the distance allowing for closer weapons to be usable but not necessarily viable as the changes still favor long range engagements just now itā€™s predator weighted rather than FT weigthed
(albeit at 45 meters spamming bows and PC is still just going ot be the most effective strategy cause now we can stay at an optimal range and shoot with high accuracy as the range is roughly a medium range with it now being very difficult to deal with cause were 100% invis and melee is too high risk due to Ft dmg ouput at close range and parries being to easy to pull off)

but still your perspective is an interesting one iā€™ll keep it in mind for the future weā€™ll see if the devs also thought your way when they made the change based on how the next patch goes

I cant remember who said it but someone once said something like this to me on here.

ā€œOn one hand, its the predator, we should be afraid of him. But on the other hand If it bleeds we can kill it.ā€

If this was another franchise perhaps you could make that claim. In Predator 1 an unarmed individual defeated the predator in close combat. In predator 2 the pred was running like a little bitch and then got killed in a melee fight (granted, he was not at his best with one missing arms and some other wounds). In predators (movie) the pred died from a katana fight (medieval weapons ROFL!) with a yakuza!

Put some bullets into him and he dies, nice and proper!

Yo bro that build you gave us sure makes anyone shit I play šŸ˜† I make sure of it šŸ˜ˆšŸ˜ˆšŸ˜ˆ

#193

Which one? Sorry šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø

#194

I mean, I guess we just have a difference of opinion on how the game should fundamentally function. Which is fine šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø

#195

Yes, you understood my position very correctly. Moreover, I really hope that the execution time of the mission, their variety and the protective functions of the FT in the next patches will be greatly expanded, now if the FT want to make a trap for the predator, they will need a tool for this, as I think the mines will fit perfectly.

#196

its at the point of awsomenessā€¦ due to jumping in on a 4 man sniper squad you can literally jump right behind all of them and at least kill one or 2 while they swap weapons and jump panicā€¦ my favorite bow shots are when they land where my arrow goes as the make jump around and easier target.

Last night, I was squaded up with two other guys and let a random fill the fourth slot. We had a few really close calls, but we mostly won. We were trying to knock out the daily late last night. I think we played 9 hunts and won 7. Thatā€™s not bad, and thatā€™s not even with a full premade on PS4. Maybe the cloak is fine how it is.

Honestly, you just need to use cover and stick together. Use good gear like grenades, UAV, ACIG grenades, and med packs and just keep moving and covering each otherā€™s backs.

If shit goes sideways, one person should peel off to camp reinforcements while the others finish the mission, and if they die, you bring the whole team back and hopefully the predator will have to rely on hogs for health, giving you time to finish and exfil.

TLDR: if you play well as a team, the new cloaking isnā€™t really over powered much. Just try to complete the mission and exfil.

I will say this. The top tier preds will make lives a living hell with the new cloak. Even 4 man pc randos fall apart right now

#199

i had a team of 4 randos run at me with knives only to die to arrow hs in 2 minā€¦swapping back and forth between knives and gunsā€¦

Probably as it should be.
