So I keep seeing fireteam players telling Pred not to melee because we’ll die. So what do you suggest? I had ONE player take me down to half HP in a matter of seconds from a distance of around 500 feet. ONE. Revealing your position means game over. Melee means game over. Only viable way to play is to be insane and snipe with the bow. Yeah, feels like Predator…
Fireteam can melt half your HP in the time it takes to get a single shot off.
albeit this is my issue with the game right now the tools fireteam has gear guns etc… is just strictly better than the tools predator has
once the majority of players starts using them it won’t be possible anymore for predator to win
unless the fireteam is just a bunch of potatoes

I had a match where the FT just camped out a building and a guy was spam spotting on the roof. He found me in the trees and took half my health and I couldn’t even hit him he was so jumpy. And I had Impenetrable on too, so why’d I lose about half my health?

oh ya know there are a like 6 guns in the game that kill pred (any of them) in either one clipwith extended mag or in 11seconds or less there are 4 dudes just think a bout it the lowest kill time at melee range is 3 seconds
imagine meleeing a firteam member 2 times and then dieing for it he didn’t even parry you

The best way to win as Predator right now is to initiate your self-destruct and kill yourself at the start of the match, it’s the most OP weapon in your arsenal.

LMAO TRUE
Just turn on crossplay and play against the PS4 people lol EZ mode
Lol yep
hey FattBrando !
any possibility of us seeing some gameplay footage? I never use bow as it is the least predator feeling weapon for me (though it does work great). Maybe there is something we could point out for you. just an idea if you are open to it.
I’ve tried to record but I’m using a laptop and its a no go. Framerate drops way to hard.
Honestly I appreciate it, but I’m not sure what could be gleaned from it. Most recent example was on backwater. I set up an ambush for the fireteam at the satellite dish. Motion detectors on all the buildings. I crouched down, peaked out just over the edge with the bow, let lose an arrow, nailed my target but before I could even draw the bow again I got spotted and shot by ONE person with the GOS-L. I know this because the motion detector told me the others were behind a building. Took just less than half my health. So I traded half my health for half the health of ONE fireteam memeber.
Sure, I could have hit the target an re-positioned. Problem is now they know where I am, so moving to another location is likely to get me shot anyway, and then the rest of the team is gonna be on top of me. And then it’s bakc to ole fireteam hunting grounds. I figured since it was just one I could get at least one more shot off. Nope. Gotta run. I have about 3 minutes to take down an entire team before they call the chopper so I’m really out of ideas.
hmm ya. no 2 games will ever be the same. There’s so many variables like the team’s proficiencies, where and when the conflict takes place, the loadout etc etc…
So as much as I feel your frustration and want to help, I dont think rebalancing the game is the only thing that can be done, we could theorize about scenarios endlessly but we will never know until something is put into practice. You may never encounter that particular thing you posted about again or at least for a while, maybe it was a one maybe it happens regularly. matches are numerous and varied so it is hard to dissect.
That is why I mention the footage because if we watched it, we might instinctively pick up on things we might have done differently and be able to offer them as things to try for the next match.
All that being said if you are on a controller I accept it is most likely more of a challenge right off the bat. I tried with the controller and found that not being able to zip the leap path exactly where i wanted it to be with a flick or look around 180 quickly or snap aim certain weapons a real handicap. Those things especially the leap (I’m always running long leap perk pretty much) are key to how i play.
For example before attacking the fireteam i will kill surrounding pigs. Then I can push it with the FT and leap quickly out feed and leap back into the fight and only miss 30 seconds to a minute. I go balls to the wall and second wind early (not always on purpose but dont sweat it if i do) so it has time to recharge and pull it off again later in the match. both medkits are saved for the final showdown where i can heal on the battlefield feet away.
Remember guys. This game not like Predators movie. It’s like AvP game where your main weapon is your speed. when you move left-right maneuruing uses spear before attack and use fast stops to shoot from bow. It\s amazing how difficult to aim to you when you tempo-ly moving
The predator is op
