That’s a very narrow minded look at this… it won’t just be me, there will be others like @Fire who’s actually with me on this one lol.
And they actually wont be less unique lmao… everything will stay the same except people will be more free and not be forced to follow based looks at things from society for video game industries.
Thats the very reason why this game is dying and so did evolve.
Game was dying when everyone was using the same jack of all trades pred builds before this patch, now they have reason to use scout etc without gimping themselved because scout has its own unique strengths. Playerbase at its peak currently.
The video game industry doesnt profit from being wrong. People want playstyles.
Game is still dying lmao tho… it technically died on the release btw, cause idk most people avg base the game on how it was launched… but i dont do that hence i bought it anyways and pre ordered it cause i bought it only cause it included predator franchise in it… and it was asymmetrical which is my type of games in life.
So basically game is now being on life support in my eyes… depending on what devs do next with it… hopefully predators 2010 game mode where ur on game preserve planet and the fireteam objective is to hijack the predator ship to explain.
I personally want my ideas get to see the light by the devs… as it would make the game way easier to balance and it would be much much muuuch more enjoyable to play on both sides…
Gameplay feels dull right now for me, its not fun, it was not that fun even from start… what i see as fun is to make my prey feared of me to the point where they know they can kill me if they are grouped and stick together… but i want that back brain fear that they keep having to look back at themselves if im behind them.
I personally proposed my specializations idea only cause it removed a lot of future fun from me, i really hoped it would have been universal and different from fireteam cause each fireteam member has 4 perk points to combine and it includes specializations in it…
so thats 16 vs 4 lol
so idk… idk what else to say u keep looping about it will ruin FUN… but it will actually fix fun lol…
But i guess with what devs are doing idk… idc honestly its like im being paid by them to fix the game but im not XD
So i dont care.
Spreading the issues across all classes and getting it nerfed across the board because one class is broken with it is terrible for balance and its exactly why games have classes.
Unique perks make the game more fun because now we are seeing different predators with different playstyles rather than everyone just playing Hunter with dithered lens castering. Trapper builds are back, disc builds are a thing, scouts are quiet, alpha’s and valks go for some melee. You see a pred and expect a playstyle which is how it should be even though you call that a “stereotype.” They should continue defining classes and setting them apart.
Granted zerk still sucks but buff his unique specializations. They can give zerk the edge he needs without worrying about it being broken on another class if they buff it.
Again, better for balance than your theory thats never been used because it just promotes stacking stats with no defined strengths or weaknesses. Scout can run disciplined because its squishy.
Thats the point… to be undefined… thats the whole point lol…
it promotes fun and non repetitive gameplay
No. The point of classes are defined strengths and weaknesses.
You just dont like classes in games and want to change the definition so you can be an archerknightmagetank abomination
The type of person that queues as medic in dungeons because they have a single healing skill & dont see the problem until everyones dead.
Everyone running Hunter with dithered lens & downrange before spec patch was the most repetitive this games ever been.
Now im seeing diverse stuff like elder with disc & backstab alpha & wont get nerfed just because the most-rounded classes want to use 15% dmg bonuses with no tradeoffs.
You are labeling me and judging me without even playing games that require teamwork like that, if i were to invite an evolve moderator explain how i played evolve and the support class, she would say that i was playing every skill at once as being as support.
I take my games seriously but also fun at the same time.
You personally wouldn’t even be able to even get to know me or know how i act cause im non existent on human scale.
I do my stuff highly planned with full precision so people don’t feel like im letting them down but im also doing my thing when i play my support class as a tank or a trapper
Ok but its not everyone… that word is overused in society a lot, like actually overused XD
not everyone runs metas actually… mainly people on forums
Ok… now tell me why did you mention me this, when i dont really care what others play… why should i base my playstyle on metas and why should others do so as well… there are some people on the forums who dont follow meta builds but just joined the forums to talk and try them lol…
Ok good on you for roleplaying but I dont want to go back to 90% of matches being caster hunter. It’s not fun.
All your patch would do is result in people that want to win running Stalker and maybe 2 other specs on all their preds to just stack damage and no tradeoffs for their class. All of which would have to be nerfed into the ground.
Games are balanced around people playing to win cant make a case for meme builds.
I’m not even roleplaying as you may think and causing mayhem by doing so… no its hard to explain what i do…
Not all… especially not asymmetrical games.
Are you scared that universal specs will cause unnecessary nerfs?
What differences?
Every pred is still doing the same thing.
Our current specializations arent good enough to be class locked.
It wasn’t 90% caster hunter.
If anything it was only like 50%
I still saw ppl use melee before the pred specializations.
I dont think you were paying enough attention fin.
There really isnt new life or uniqueness in the game now.
The classes still need a rework to feel truly unique.
How are you going to be so against jack of all trades yet say everything’s fine now, when preds are still jack of all trades?
Each class like I said doesnt even feel different.
It feels more like they’re different sub classes.
I can count on one hand the number of times ive seen disc used before this patch lol.
Realistically thats not happening anytime soon but im always good with more differentiation between classes so this is very much a step in the right direction.
That’s a start. Much better than classes being skins with an extra gear point.
Clash looking good btw xd
That’s exactly what would happen and it’s exactly why we see them fiddling with perk costs to prevent certain combos on certain classes.
This is taking that a step further.
Okay good… now i know what is your reason for not adding it, thank you… you could have said this and not us having an argument for 2 days straight XD
And do believe me i would love if i could share my simulations with other people… but if you do have time i can DM you like a bible worth message where i explain my simulations ran and saw the outcomes of the game with people having universal access to specs.
But either way… as much as i would tell u it wont happen u are still in belief that it will ruin the game that badly.
Clash not looking good.
Omg have you literally been going off clash this entire time?
Clash fkn sucks, its irrelevant.
You cant try to go off it.
It has fake stats.
Either way were not that far off from wanting the same thing believe it or not.
Our current specializations arent that good, so unlocking them to different classes will only create a few metas, not a single one.
So it wont really change anything.
Yeah with my simulations run… all of them lead to people running metas for like a week or so then stopping cause people will find a way to counter them like they did in the past for FIELD MEDICS
Cause people realized oh well we are losing our fun with running meta only… and pred is here combining his stuff but we are running the same build to survive against him and abuse the shit out of the game…
And people thought exactly the same thing about FIELD MEDIC yet i was still able to kill entire squad running it lmfao…
It was weird at the start yeh…took me a while to realize they get up faster than FLASH bruv…
And yeah…
Feild medic still needs to fuck off.
And the main thing you are afraid of btw which are devs nerfing it to the ground.
Well they nerfed valkyrie out of the blue, nobody asked for it but they did it… so what does that tell you?
How will you feel if they just end up nerfing preds anyways even if people didnt want it to happen lol… or like nerf specs.
So in general devs do what they want and not what people want it seems like… and technically they can revert it back if enough people give them a good reason for it…
And i also made good reasons incase they decide to nerf preds after making specs universal.
I said it prevents blanket nerfs like 3 times
70% Clash with hunt a 3rd of the time, specs are fun af here ngl
People running FM can still be terrible it doesnt aim for them.
And it not aiming for them doesnt make it balanced either.
