So I’ve been using Dutch, obviously, and if you put on OWLF training plus Thick skin you are sitting at 175 and taking less damage. Which can be done with support but Dutch feels faster than support as well. If I’m incorrect let me know but he definitely feels faster. Also the M16(hammerhead) is fucking disgusting. It’s a laser beam with FAT damage and an impact grenade launcher. Definitely a force to be reckoned with.
Dutch MIGHT be PTW

So I played Pred all night, 15-20 matches. From what I was watching from the tree tops as columns of FTs went strolling below me was that Dutch is definitely slower than recon/scout, slightly slower than assault, and slightly faster than the support. When I play around with him tomorrow I’ll do some comparison. But I mean he’s like 60, so it would make sense that he’s the second slowest. He’s not a spring chicken anymore.
Love it when he’s downed and he says, “I knew it’d happen in the jungle”, or when he’s revived “help an old man up”. Priceless.

Played only one match as him and two matches against and he feels pretty strong, maybe a bit too strong. 175 health with Thick Skin but with the stats of an Assault plus the Hammerhead AR? However, these are just my first impressions and they’ll probably change as I play more.
Oh yeah I don’t want him to be super fast if was any faster it would definitely be op hahah
I’m saying he feels like almost kinda Pay to Win. He’s tankier than assault and feels just as fast while having the same amount of stamina and a monster of a gun
He goes down just as fast as an assault, I wiped two FT teams that were pretty decent that were all Dutch. That weapon absolutely packs a punch though. Grenade does decent damage, but once the tube is out, it’s beat down time. The rifle itself seemed to hit as hard as the AUG does. We need to do some science.

He’s 78, in one of his tapes it’s his birthday. But because he was treated with an experimental serum made using Predator stuff it’s given him the prowess of a man in his 40s. The new tapes describe it in more detail…he’s also not allowed to have children because they don’t want to risk mutant offspring 🤣
I could still take him down one shot with a combistick throw to the face also, so not too OP. I mean, to do that to a support, you gotta do some prep damage first.

No shit, I only listened to the first one. 🤣
I need do my own research
I am curious about his voice in game. I guess you will ask me why? I can explain
Illfonic or Sony (propably Sony) decided to made full language localization. In Polish that OWLF records have polish voice of some actor but when i played Dutch tapes they had original voice of Arnold (where i am thankful for that)
Yesterday when i played as Fem Pred i met one Dutch but he was silent. Maybe player bought DLC and dont use commands (get to the chopper etc etc etc) or he used commands but my game dont have voice lines (lol) so i need do audio research
One thing I have noticed, players running Dutch can be sloppy. They won’t stop using the voice commands, think they’re fucking invincible and suddenly they are the leader…and when there’s more than one, it’s like a dick measuring contest🙄 and they’re usually the first ones getting killed. I’ve had the misfortune of being in quite a few teams where there’s 2 Dutchs, and they were painful to endure.
I’ve been conservative with my Dutch class, using it when there is no other Dutch and depending on what other classes people are running for best balance. He’s great to use, as long as you don’t suddenly think you’ve got super powers. And downing a Predator, being the one who stayed back to deactivate the self destruct, and win the arm wrestle in the final cinematic was worth every penny I paid. That match alone gave me my money’s worth, and illfonic deserve major kudos for getting Dutch perfect!

He has lots of voice cues, when he spots enemy AI he will say “Get down”. When mudding up he says “It still works”, and much more. When other players have used Dutch, I can clearly hear those non player controlled vocals. So I’m guessing it must be a regional language issue, and hopefully illfonic can address that so everyone gets the complete experience.
You’ve got to listen to them all in one, it’s a hell of a story👌🏼💯
Maybe or i just dont hear because you know…gun blazing from FT and AIs 😂
No he does not hahah like objectively no he does not. That’s just numbers. He has more health and can still put on OWLF training, and even if he puts on 0 sustain perks, he still has more health than assault. So he in fact does not go down as fast
Also that, yeah🤣
I mean I can see where you coming from, I’ve played a about 15 matches with Pred 2day and I will say he’s strong as fuck but he can be downed fairly quickly if you know what your doing. I’ve used blades, bows, combistick, elder sword, nets, and he caught the business like the other classes lol he’s a good asset to the FT in the right players hands. Some says he’s OP but I don’t think so (my opinion) but he does pose a threat. I’ve only played with him 3x he handles pretty well and feels balanced to me I’m just sayn
It’s 10 points more, that’s one more wristblades slash.
Dutch is hurting in the gear department. I still prefer assault because you get get healing syringes but also a ammo bag or health kit.
