Lmao I mean I can understand the frustration tho.
But if I can get my old mw3 snipe aim il literally be doing what you guys on pc do but on console.
Its obvious To see who’s desperate via their post and how they play.
However, while not YOU.
a lot of pc players feel like they have a lot at stake so they try to do whatever they can to win.
And I use to be a pc gamer for a few years.
If I wasnt so lazy I would of modded the shit out of my games.
Not to change gameplay, but to change costumes, avatars and music.
It’s so easy to do so on pc.
Replace a file that isnt important.
Anyway this isnt an attack on you.
Or anyone really.
I’m Literally just using data from post on this forum.
From different threads.
And no, ps players arent saints.
For the record,
I may call pc stuff out more, but I dont really trust anybody man.
Not pc, not ps.
Ps just has easier access to grouping up, and I’ve been lucky to meet some cool ppl on here.
But I’ve also met some really cool and interesting people on pc.
But I’ve met waaaaaay more assholes in all aspects of life xD.
Anyway that’s all I was doing.
Responding with what I’ve seen here.
Btw to be clear.
I dont think only pc players cheat.
Hoh boy if you only saw mw3 on ps3 back in the day xD.
Gta 5…
And so on.
I’ve played with Team X PS4 players, they play better than any regular PS4 player I’ve seen. I’ve seen PS4 players getting out of the net in 2-3 seconds, disarming bombs in 2-3 seconds, I didn’t even knew about turbo controllers until my friend told me about, I never had a PlayStation.
Hell, the advice I got last summer from PS player, when I told him about the game I had vs campers on Derailed, he literally told me “katana them through the walls, that’s what I do”, I was like what?! I didn’t even know that was even possible.
Like I said, it’s not the platform, it’s the character behind the screen.
There’s always gonna be assholes through our lives, it’s kinda normal considering in what kind of world we live in.
“a lot of pc players feel like they have a lot at stake so they try to do whatever they can to win.”
Those kind of people have no life outside of the game, I’ve seen them in Counter Strike, SW:TOR almost daily and I saw them in this game also, melee through the walls, healing out of the map, using exploit in Clash to make themselves invisible, double slams on roofs, throwing spear and using phantom spear to melee you right after the throw, throwing spear and shooting arrow in the same second, dude having three masks in one match (we shot off two of his masks and dude came to our exfil with the third mask on his face and still lost the match).
I’ve seen plenty of shit in this game that was actually done to me and I know their names, but for me there’s more to life than games and I don’t feel the need to call them out and public shame them, they are pathetic enough for using that shit.
They are probably nobody’s in RL, so they feel the need to be accepted and be someone in some game so they could feel appreciated and a part of something.
Because let’s be real, who’s gonna be friends with that kind of person in RL?

Lmao ppl like them?
XD
Probably.
I feel the Cloak is perfectly fine right now. It has been adjusted enough.
It’s rather the sounds that Preds make while being cloaked that should get adjusted.
For example giving us a Pred class that is completely silent, would be interesting.
Or like Jelou says, reduce the amount of spotting by the Fireteam.

I honestly could not care less about the cloak. 90% of the time I find the pred via visual cues like eyes flashing, leaves falling, branches swinging and most importantly… SOUND.
You can even make the pred fully invisible (like the bug we have) and still win.
What I do believe needs to go is the damn pred spotting, which with the right class/perk/specialization basically gives you a 9 second wallhack that is just beyond broken.
If you can’t see it, and if you haven’t hit it, even if you know where it is, pred should not be spotted, period. And the whole 9 second spot, along with the 1 second revive from field medic, needs to go, asap.

when i read people answers i wonder if we are playing the same game or if people bother try both gameplay, FT and pred…but hey ya know what lets speak about the real problem that my dear pc compatriot right above me keep pointing out:
THE SOUND
yes rigth now and you have all probably notice but FT player don’t really play with loud music in the hear. and its because the predator is more loud than a fucking truck driving full speed and crushing against a super market. in fact its such a pain that half of the time we as pred have to learn our clicking pattern for not being spot when we run around or leap around fully invincible. same goes for the damn sprint and leap its so easy to point where it came from that nobody bother droping EMP grenade on pred, nah we just point and click where the sound come from and see. and if we hit, we just ping with the deliciously op 9 second spotting (that thing is worst than yautja bane) and boom its over, the pred become a punching bag for the next 12/20second (depending on how good your team is with following the pred movement.)
personal upgrade that need to be made:
-
give the clicking a resonating effect and less easy to pint point the location at far range
-
Make the sprinting footsetp more silent. for fuck sake its so loud when in the original movie IT WAS SO DAMN SILENT
1:35
-
give us the option to have a silent landing (when pressing the crouch button) when we leap instead of landing like a damn meteor
-
Allow us to modify our audio decoy and being able to select our own sound in it.
-
let us control our clicking. yes i know that sound op be hear me out. by doing so we can click only after a certain amount of time, and if we dont do it after that certain amount of time the game automaticly make us click. that sound more fair in my opinion than cloaking when arriving close to the FT and suddenly clicking for no damn reason and immediatly burning out our position
You know this is already ingame and being used? Most people just don’t do it.
At this point they need to put you on the payroll

I definitely agree the sound tuning would be far more beneficial than the cloak. I’m not against minor “fine tuning” to the cloak either. I think 25m is a bit close though, personally anything closer than 40m should be visible especially for console/controller users to has more reaction time.
Just my 2 cents

Sure, making cloak better will make you harder to spot but when you have seasoned players who use sound instead to locate the Pred, it literally throws the idea out the window. Instead make audio decoys copy exactly the same noise you are making, keep sound how it is, apart from when you are perfectly still and cloaked, but if you’re charging a bow shot, a more louder sound should come out.

Okay idk if we are on the same page here but i am very aware of whole sound thing and how majority of people just focus on audio than visualizations actually, this is why im writting this cause you may think the changes peeps asked for the cloak have been added… apperently they have been reverted back to the point where its the same as it was.
The SOUND however is annoying to and i would really like it they can
- Lower the clicking
- Make clicking echo rather than it being one sided directional
Yee, the reverted it because 3 people complained. If they want to keep it the way it is, they need to greatly lower cloaked clicking And make it less directional as you said.
Mate i didnt just write this topic to make spotting harder lmao… and majority of you here should know better that the cloak predator uses in the movie is to play with people minds and MIND FUCK them.
You are honestly unable to do this properly or yet not anymore as you used to back in patch 1.04 when the fear factor existed for predator…
While now the only factor there exists is… will the predator come at you guys and be brain dead or will he spam plasma. And dont lie to me when i say this cause i am aware of the whole drama and why i stopped playing and returned after like few patches.
The idea for the cloak is not to just avoid being spotted, i think its fair to say there is more layers to the cloak than it is what people think, the cloak plays a major factor in the movies to scare and frighten their pray, which there is none in this game cause u can feel safe of throwing grenades at ur feet and it will destroy pred lol… but to stay on track.
Let me ask you guys this and answer truthfully:
Don’t you feel annoyed how AI just piles up below u like they are able to see where you went rather them spreading around and searching.
Dont you feel like cloak deserves to give its own scare factor in the game so you know you cant fuck with the predator rather so easily until he is close by.
This then is a topic for Audio Sound design which i have not yet made cause i doubt they are willing to hire someone to make new sounds really its just not a thing they do as we know from start this game has bad audio sync and breaking
I mean yeah im curious as well if people are on the same page here… i did not make this topic to talk about audio here, i made this topic to jusitfy its visualization and how it gives people a scare and has its scare factor…
I will however keep doing these re-works based on what people think is middle grounds i guess…
And its actually quite sad how illfonic decides to just revert back the cloak cause only few people kept complaining they cant see him at all while he is shooting at them…
Now as much as that is true, illfonic missed the point of their issue, the issue is that predator was completely invisible and should have been visible ir inside the 40 meter radius and firing plasma at you.
If you think about it its not fucking fair at all they just gave up and were like HEY we tried to do what you guys wanted…
Not really they did not do what we wanted… we wait we wanted to get an improved cloak… but now i gave them even more detailited info on how to make the cloak work
i have tried many many time and sometimes its just like it work or it doesn’t this is fucking weird
