FT does not fear the Predator
Just piggy back on your last few statements regarding “proof”
If we had a stat page of our overall progression
For ex:
Overll Play time
Quick match play time
private match playtime
% predators defeated
% killed by predators
No. of matches played
No. of completed missions
No. of optionals completed
% accuracy
% favorite weapon accuracy
For FT & Pred
Ect
Ect
Details like this would back up what these predators say
For me theres been a couple times whe nmy buddies and I do all day all nighters and not lose a single game at all
Its happened and if I had the stat page to back it up, slot of people wouldn’t be so quick to run their mouths
But right on ya, I agree with your post.
Thumbs up

Even with stats, Predator performance can be heavily affected by FT performance (and vice versa), which is down to luck of the draw a lot of the time.
Also, private matches would need to be excluded from the metrics for obvious reasons.
No way is it balanced if so many of you are winning almost 100% of FT games. That’s proof that the FT is op.
Nerf spotting. If you do then people will need to use a mic and call out directions. My buddies do it and it really adds to the atmosphere.
Make reinforcements less easy to do. Pushing one button, mudding up and hiding for about 20 seconds shouldn’t get you back a full health full geared up team.
Bring them back but bring them with no syrettes and half ammo.

the fact that people aren’t using in-game chat is just boring lol, it adds to the atmosphere and the hunt
there needs to be kick-back to being killed as a human indeed
There are perks for that
Iron Lung Grant’s you infinite parries.
Double Time increased movement speed
Those 2 combine can track down all beserkers easily, most hunters and some scouts in sm2nd wind.
Spotting is needed.
Do you play predator often?
If you do, your asking them to nerf all the things the fire team have to survive.
I run recon or scout
With thick skin, iron lung, double time
My build is made for those infinite parries or running down the pred.
What do I sacrfice?
Dps since I dont run bane,
Def since I dont run owlf training
Stealth since I’m not running pig in shit or ice cold
So even though I’m squish, up close im dangerous IF I can can get my parries out of the way or live long enough to hunt down a 2nd wind pred.
So its balanced.
Gotta give some thing’s you need for something else you want to accommodate your playstayle.
Im winning 95 out of 100 pred games
Or more like 200 to 5
The other 5 i still live
Lucky you. I win quite a few but I’d be winning more on a PC.
Gotta disagree with you on that. Do you work with a coordinated fireteam? Asking, do you use microphones to call out the Predator? If not you should give it a try. The fireteam doesn’t need these things to survive. A top tier fireteam can shut down a Pred. Even wihout using a single parry.
You don’t need a perk for infinite parries. You can still parry with zero stamina. That needs to change. You have a gun, and a good team can absolutely shred a rushing Predator. You don’t need parry to survive. You shouldn’t be able to 1v1 the Predator. As I said, if 1 or 2 parries isn’t enough, then you aren’t playing as a team and the Predator should be able to ruin you for it.
I stand by my statement. YOU SHOULDN’T BE HUNTING THE PREDATOR. You don’t need to be fast enough to run him down, regardless of what perks you are using.
I think you and I just want a different type of game. I play both the fireteam and the Predator. I feel the fireteam is easy and just melts the Predator, and the Predator is always on his heels and barely scraping by. I still win a lot of games with the Predator. But the game I want swings the other way. The Predator should be the hunter, not the fireteam. Playing the Predator should be easier (not a cakewalk, but easier) than the fireteam. That’s not the case right now.
I want to be scared of the Predator when I play the fireteam, and I want to feel powerful as the Predator. It’s switched right now and that’s not the experience I’m looking for in this game.
…Parry sucks.

fear the predator total chaos
Yes, I do.
We have a decently large group that all play 4 player quick match.
We coordinate. absolutely.
The problem isn’t that ft is op.
The problem is the 98% “challenged” predators who think this is a hack n slash with the combistick and get dunked on.
Go watch the films. Please.
And tell me when ever do you see the predator leap in, combine stick the whole group and win?
Never ever.
For predator it’s a HUNTING GAME.
Thinking like a hunter. When to engage a lonely fire team , kill claim leap away. Next target.
Or if they’re sticking together , poke at them separate them, bring down their health and make them use their resources then go for the pounce. It’s not hard to be a good predator.
Predator isn’t an overzealous character because hes big and strong.
He used his environment to his advantage.
Using “decision making skills” when to go for the kill.
Just because most of the player base has the i.q. of dried up sponge that repels logic doesnt mean the fire team needs to be nerfed again.
You cant punish good teamwork because the masses is “challenged”
This game punishes stupid people who make really bad choices. And it forces you the players to realize on the death screen . And it sucks. Yea but people need to re evaluate they’re actions if they are to improve their game play.

i’m pretty sure in predator 2 the city hunter did actually jump in the middle of the squad and killed all of the OWLF agents
but i’m not trying to argue you here i just remember’d that when i read that
albeit that’s also not a reason to balance for that either
though i do want to know you do know from an on paper arguement fireteam just has better equipment though right?
on one hand yes some predators are er “challanged” in their approach but in my experiance going against a good premade fireteam is literally impossible when there taking advantage of their best tools weapons perks gear etc…

In predator 2, in the freezer scene with the owlf members you see the predator first take out 2 people then leap away. He engaged attacked , disengaged…picked them off 2 at a time until there was 1 left. THATS HOW YOU PLAY PREDATOR.
Most people dont disengage. They stay attacking and get punished for it. They deserve it because they suck at making the right call. that falls on poor decision makin.

fair enough i don’t remember the scene all that well tbh i just remember the city hunter killing em all in the building
I just posted the clip. Its 2 mins
I agree. And rushing in is not how I play. But right now, you can be pinpointed and spot spammed, sniped into oblivion before you can even get close. The caster gives away your position instantly. The only viable weapon is the bow.

They were also most likely AI soldiers, or the movie equivalent. They should give them all red shirts perhaps?
