If you hunker down in a building healing after reinforcements your gonna get slammed its fair enough with the gun exploits out there and the amount of bugs.
Energy-Slam EXPLOIT - IllFonic please fix it ASAP
The 3rd assault rifle exploit can down a predator in mere 2 sec
06:28:58
you might have to watch about 1-2 minutes of gameplay but there onwards is where the exploit starts to take hold and make the game unbearable for FT. (Also not me streaming, I was in stream).
there are ft exploits too. Heals upon heals re-enforcement’s and heals. Plus I see a lot of teams not running anything but recon and scout and they get one or 2 shot. I also see a lot of people just running dmg perks and trying to hunt the predators. I think hunting the predator is a retarded idea as in you’ll die more than likely
Roof slam is fine, maybe stop turtling in buildings?

I want all exploits gone, FT and Preds, if you feel like theres other exploits in the game please add them to another thread to make sure Illfonic gets to see them, I do not condone any form of exploit.
roof slam is fine inmo if there scared heres a video enjoy, I only slam on re-enforcement’s
Someone explain to me how they’re not 100% positive that slamming through the roof isn’t working as intended. I’d love to hear why you think that.
I mean, considering the fact that I’m playing as an ALIEN WITH INVISIBLE CAMO AND A SHOULDER LASER! But please go on about “realism.”

realism is if predator hits u with claw ur fuking dead
realism is if he hits you with plasma caster full charge your dead and so is a line of people in its way
realism is Predator is not real so this is not a topic for debate its a game
Yo btw I count that as a loss lol. Honestly the way you guys were playing he didnt need to slam yall repeatedly. So ya you guys did not get 8 kills in a row.
So instead of commenting on the actual gameplay and how that it provided a much larger advantage (probably game breaking) you instead comment on a silly streak counter we kept going?
I just showed a clean video when slam is ok. When they hunddle in a building
Thanks for the video!
I watched from your timestamp and it was hard to make out the cancel there.
There is an easier one to see at 6:27:41. Though you will probably want to start a few seconds before that because it is not on screen long.
For any of the new folks in the room. Slamming is okay. Spamming slam is okay. Cancellng and sliding after the slam is what is being discussed here. Thank you.
I can agree with that, I had line of sight on them multiple times, had he not “animation cancelled” I would have punished him for leap slamming. Unfortunately I couldnt get my perspective of the issue at hand otherwise I would have shared it with you guys.
I will start recording matches in the future and if I can find a more clear example I will post it here.
It could also be recorded from the Predator’s perspective, but in honesty it does not look as impressive as it does from the perspective of the FT.
I’m saying playing against you guys, once the two of you were down he didnt need to keep slamming. He probably was just annoyed with you guys so said fk it, yall wanna be annoying, let me return the favor.
When the dude recording was down, one of the guys said he melted him right? So does that itself not prove that it’s not a complete game breaking advantage?
Second the reason I bring up the counter is because if you guys got that many pred kills in a row, it shows you’re having a pretty easy time. Then yall get pissed cause 1 person fks up the streak?
Like I said. I think the clipping damage is too much, but it’s useful for campers. And leap without the cancel is death, especially with a group like the one yall had.
But I also can see why it’s annoying for yall, so, that’s why I said adding a precise timing would help.
Or a cool down. But after seeing this clip, I would lower that cool down to 5 seconds, after energy recharges.
Because entering a fatigue state, for 3 seconds would make slam pointless.
If you get rid of the blind, then it would have to not lock you in place at all, ever.

@Shield The biggest tragedy, and this is one I am not sure I can recover from is:
Not one of your FT asked this guy if he wished he had a little pussy. (TBH I did not watch it all so if someone did then my apologies).
That is all, sleep well.

I can understand the guy being angry with us and to be honest he had every right to be, we were really hunting him to be honest and that is pretty unfair so I guess yes I can understand him using it on us but issue there lies with balancing and I have said so many times in a lot of different threads that the Pred definitely needs a buff but this is not one of them. So you agree that we were a coordinated team that we were having an easy time of it up til then and so the fact that someone did use that exploit against meant that we werent completely powerless but we were fighting at a massive disadvantage.
Yeah that was me, I pulled out the minigun because he thought he was able to face tank me just to quick melee down me, that bought us enough breathing room to pick our guys up but that didn’t stop him from quickly healing up and just jump spam/cancel us again.
I wouldnt say we were even camping, we were actually by our objective and we were all out in the open giving this pred definite opportunities to use ranged weapons against us. I like line of sight and being able to know where the pred is going to be coming from hence I try to find high ground to overlook the place.
Yeah he did fuck up our streak, I mean he did win but that was a cheap win, even you said after he downed the 2 of us he didnt really need to keep on doing it so to keep using an exploit after that begs the question did he really deserve to win?
A cool down would help, but I dont want to see the meta become “just slam your opponents until they die”, I want to see Preds play stealthy and using weapons like bow/plasma caster (takes skill to land shots) and thats why I want to see things buffed/nerfed to promote this gameplay, slam spamming to me feels quite cheap after experiencing that.
If slam spamming does become meta though they really need to reduce the damage, potential for 400 damage is way too much.
I don’t think it would be pointless, being able to be mobile after the slam is important to avoid taking shots, that is why people are doing the animation cancel after all because they want to start moving quicker. So at the moment they get the best of both worlds, they get to move (albeit not being able to attack/leap/attack for the animation, like said fatigue already mentioned) and get the flash/slow, thats way too much hence we why are discussing this. So one side needs to go either the flash/slow and then the pred can move (in said fatigue state to stop abuse, moving in unpredictable paths is surely better for survival than just been rooted in place) or keep the flash/slow but remain rooted for that animation, more risky as if the FT knew the rough location where you landed they can spray and pray in that direction.
Personally I am in favour of the former as it gives preds more of a chance.
