Everyone shares their impressions of the patch. My turn.

#1

I played about 20 games on a predator. I won 12. I want to talk about the problems that were resolved, the problems that appeared and the things that remained.

  1. Damage. I did not notice the difference, the predator is still weak in terms of tanking damage. I’m not against.

  2. Boars. I offered this chip only for the hunter class, but look! IT WORKS! Have you become much more comfortable? I’m glad to try for you, maybe some of my further suggestions will make the game even more comfortable for you.

  3. Long-range battle. Dear developers, the perk for increasing damage to ranged weapons STILL DOES NOT WORK ON THE BOW! I like that you increased the speed of the arrow, that’s good, the hit rate has grown. But forgive me, of course, but I’m sure that the arrow in your head should at least drop a person. I understand that the head of most of the soldiers in this game is empty inside, but still … getting into the head is not so easy, but considering that it still does not do the damage, it is still weak.

PC- I don’t know why you nerfed him. It was not a problem, it was possible to reduce the radius of the maximum AOE damage, but now a direct hit does not kill a person, this is a problem, this is an unnecessary nerf of predator options.

  1. AI. If you make fewer bots on the map, they should become more dangerous, do MORE damage, use full grenades.

  2. Promotion of melee meta.
    Guys, you had to nerf BERSERK and not his weapon. SLOW the berserker by adding damage to it and leaving the other normal melee weapons for other classes.

Now, if you want to shift the meta towards melee, you must raise the power of ALL melee weapons for a predator to the level of a spear. But we must not forget about long-range combat, it should be an option.

  1. Infinite human health. Well, they no longer ran from me, stuffing themselves with syringes. But people still get amazingly little damage. I would gladly trade the predator’s vitality buff for its damage buff.

  2. Time to complete the task. Due to the weakening of AI, tasks are now completed in 4-5 minutes. AI needs damage buff. STRONG BUFF damage, 300 percent minimum. Now the predator has lost a very important window for attack, when people fight off a ton of AI and you manage to tear out 1 person from the crowd.

In general, the predator has become stronger, but … still not enough. Notice, I don’t whine, don’t cry, the patch is good, but on one side it’s still not very fun, I’m talking about people. I have said this before and will repeat it now: Developers, players are not weak and not stupid, players are not casual playing FIFA, they will cope with a more powerful AI, I promise you, but this third party MUST become stronger.

I waited 25 mins to play as a predator to then get into a empty lobby 😑

#3

Did you use the Combi Stick at all? If so then how did it feel? Was it nerfed into the ground or is it still a very strong weapon?

#4

I’m looking for a game no more than 3 minutes. Crossplay enabled, PC, ru region.

#5

Look, I’ll explain now. These are STILL the most powerful predator weapons for close combat.

But it has become worse, and he still has no alternative. I would play with other weapons but I have no choice.

I one shot a few guys with it earlier

#7

I don’t even attempt to play Predator anymore which sucks cause that’s the reason I got the game… Queue times are too long it’s ridiculous.

#8

Cant oneshot with the stick man,that means they were already damaged,so, not a valid point.

Try it on a full health FT.

#9

You must have friends and do private matches. Cause I’ve only played Pred 3 times in 5 hours. I wish I had friends.

#10

Yes I know. It is not good. But in general, I + - like the pace at which they improve the game.

#11

I do not have any problems with the search.

#12

I threw it and they went insta down and I hadn’t done any previos damage

#13

You’re lucky (or MM is broken af), because I’m waiting 5-8 mins though also have cross-play enabled. Ru region too, PC.

#14

5 minutes is not so much.

#15

Have to agree. The Combistick is the one and only choice that you can do for melee weapon. It is slower and you have to hit a fireteam member often than before. It feels like a nerf and in combat you notice that you can’t rush the Fireteam anymore. That means, that you stay more focused and play better. Before the patch it was easier to kill the Fireteam.

#16

I agree with OP

#17

I would not say that it was easier. It was more … a brain dead. If you know what I mean. Now, due to the increased treatment, the predator has become easier, but I would still work with camouflage.

#18

One thing makes Berserk still viable, thats his capacity of carrying tools, even the scout should be the one using a lot of traps since he is a ranged fighter.

On top of it another change to the bow is needed… once you downed people you should only need 2 arrows to kill them instead of 3-4… this is just too much since you already have to harrass them all the time to make them waste their heals and you only have a chance to get your arrows back once they left the area.

#19

A oneshot in the head will be enough, you can finish it off using a PC.

#20

Yeah sure, it wasn’t tactical at all. Now you have to be more careful. But actually there isn’t much time to think more tactical, because a match takes still less than before. What makes me also confuse is, that they nerfed the Plasma Canon. I think that a Scout is now unplayable, or the Fireteam has to be a blockhead.
