Fire Team Reinforcement Is Completely Broken

[Greiferbeast]

Its awful, as a predator it takes all my heals, my final stand and having only a quarter of my health left to (if the players are not complete garbage) kill 3 of them, come to find out one ran, either my biomask is broken or he is staying muddied up all the time he SO EASILY sneaks the 100m to reinforcement and I see this and im like okay i go over there SIT IN the reinforcement spot, but oh he snuck in some where for 2 seconds and 3 people spawn on me and completely wipe me because like I said quarter of a health left.

Edit: they updated the game! they fixed a TON of balancing issues read the changes here, https://gamingideology.com/2020/05/01/predator-hunting-grounds-update-1-05-patch-notes-on-may-1st/

THANK YOU DEVS!

It needs to take longer for them to spawn. And reduce it to 1 random player spawning back.

[Greiferbeast]

Yes thank you Kaljo

Yeah man, we hear ya

Been thinking about it and this idea really might help balance reinforcements:

Predator Resupply

What if the predator had a stash somewhere on the map only he could get to- his ship parked ontop of a hill the fire team can’t get to or something where we could get a new mask if ours is broken, resupply ammo for the netgun or grab more bear traps/healing syringes/motion detectors. FT has resupply crates all over the map replenishing their gear and Medkits for health everywhere, one place for a predator resupply I feel would still be fair

Since the biggest issue had been a lack of resources - heal kits for the Predator, traps, etc
I enjoy the chance to extend the game and potentially kill them all again if I had the resources to do so.

rienfoecements are fine what might help level the playing field if a faster heal on the second wind but only give us one second wind or allow us to heal up automatically when the bar empties. but idk its hard to say whether or not that’d tip the balance to far to us preds

[weebykiwi]

maybe making just make it easier for us to find pigs instead of nerfing the fireteam

I 100% agree. It takes 0 skill and completely ruins the game. It needs to go. Or be nerfed hard. Anyone that defends it will just defend any other shitty mechanic in the game and will be the reason this game will die within the first month.

That’s a little extreme.

There are a number of Predator players that are fine with reinforcement because of the fun challenge to kill them all again, plus the bonus XP.

The only real issue comes down to the Predator having expended all their resources upon the first 2-3 FT kills.
