"Good Sport" Leaderboards

It’s funny you call out my reading comprehension, yet I answered all your points.

I understood what you said, I disagreed, and even presented a way to actually make sticking to the lore/ movies possible.

I’m not trying to argue with you.

Try re reading, if you want of course since I’m not forcing you, my two responses.

Also you may not see it, but you’re coming off pretty defensive and strongly towards those who disagree.

Gitttttttter good…
I will say again ft ez asf. Complaining right now about traps is futile

My brain hurts. Your logic is so neck beard I cant even stand it

Well with the crashes and bluescreens…they did kinda make it like the pred might not show up in a match when you think about it. 😉😁🤣

I dont like it, cause while you may not see it, you’re trying to put a negative label on those who dont play a certain way.

Or are you blind to that fact?

I don’t get why you’re so aggressive with this.
It’s not like I insulted you.
I didn’t come at you. I just disagreed is all.

Lmfao dude you win comment of the day xD.
That’s true lol.

I think it’s more hes just defensive about ppl not liking his idea.

I dont get the anger tho.
Reminds me of someone who got pissed cause they thought they got ditched by the party xD.

Lol.
No but seriously this all really just seems like a misunderstanding.

I dont get why he doesn’t believe you that you’re heavy into the franchise.

I called out your reading comprehension and pointed out where you misread stuff. Mostly involving what the other two people are saying. And you didn’t really answer my points, just said you didn’t see any. Your first post was just commentary of the shitstorm this thread became, as I predicted. The second is where you did things, and I didn’t have a chance to respond. I’ll keep it brief. A leaderboard is far more possible and likely than increasing the pred queue even more. Your idea is good for the lorewise, but hard to implement effectively and removing the pred from the game has other problems. And you don’t have to follow the leaderboards. Encouraging is not the same as forcing.

Sorry about hurting that braincell. My logic here is anyone can say anything on the internet.

Lol yaa.
XD

The labels are already there. How many threads pop up insulting melee zerkers as having no skill. Or people complaining that Derailed is FT favoured because they just sit on the warehouse and snipe. These aren’t my inventions. Plenty of games have OP weapons and combos that using them gives you a negative label. Noobtube anyone? I guess we can remove negative names on the leaderboard. It has no real impact on the goal of the leaderboards. Only you’re own name would show up for you, as a -1. No negative label then.

I’m being aggressive because I’m dealing with a pair of trolls that won’t leave my thread so actual discussion like yours can happen, and I can’t just turn on and off being annoyed.

Try not to let it get to you.
No point in getting stressed out.

I do not know, an automatic leaderboard really would encourage cheating and that should not be done from my POV.

What about the possibility after a match to give players of said match either a “thumb up”, nothing or a “thumb down”. Most thumb ups per matches from different peoples (!!) then could be awarded - or alike.

Would also be a nice way to discourage cheating, as this might lead to a lot of thumbs “down”…

This feature also would help to find team mates - those you gave the most “thumbs up” could be your coming team mate… (which means, that everybody should have a list of his own “thumbs up” -or alike).

AND it would encourage people to play team-like!

I’m bumping this because its tiring to play with FT people who don’t care what the mission is because they’re not going to play it, since they only care about hunting down the predator. And its also tiring dealing with Preds who can only kill if they summon the AI and deal the last hit when the AI deals all the damage.

I got the game because its Predator, and everything about the game is paying tribute to the first movie. I almost didn’t get it because it was an AsymMP. Because it seems that all AsymMP players’ only goal is to ruin the fun for the opposing side. But I got it anyway, and when the players are right, the game gets really fun. Trying to balance finishing the mission and leaving with beating back the predator, or stalking the FT, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. Win or lose, when the game feels like the movie, its so much fun. And then there are the matches where the predator will only use the combistick throw, and he only hits when he tosses a beartrap onto an FT first, or thins the numbers by attacking downed FT who can’t fight back. And then the FT who camp the infil until the pred appears then chases it across the map or runs off the Vt, forgetting the mission, then hiding in and mudding up when the pred comes near. Players that have no respect for the other people in the round. And its that kind of toxic mindset I hope this leaderboard curbs even slightly.

Maybe use this as a form of matchmaking. High scores are matched together, people bringing the full predator experience to each other get fun immersive matches. Those like me who lean far more positive than negative, but not perfect, will face off against likeminded people. Those in the negative, who only care about ruining the fun for other players can do that to each other.

Erh, what?!

If the FT finds me while I’m in second wind or using a Med-kit, I think it’s legitimate for them to attack me (what are they supposed to do, wait politely while I finish healing my wounds?)

Therefore, I have no hesitation in pumping arrows into a downed FT or aiming a fully charged plasma blast at them to see their little body go flying across the map just as a teammate is about to heal them. Even more so now that they can self revive.

Maybe you can post your list of acceptable combat rules, or maybe you can…

First off, the predator’s whole honor system and hunting prey that can fight back.

Second, the FT leaderboard addresses that. Unless you heal inside or next to their objective, that wouldn’t be an issue.

Third, your tit-for-tat response makes this leaderboard-as-matchmaking idea perfect, so you can be stuck with people as cowardly as you.

I guess you haven’t seen the first movie where the Pred blasts a severely wounded Poncho (who’s at a point where he can’t walk unaided) in the side of the head.

So I’m ‘cowardly’ for shooting FT when they’re down wounded but not dead, and instead I should let them heal? Are you aware of the current balance of this game? Perhaps you also think people shouldn’t use traps or invisibility cloaks either, as they probably don’t conform to your fantasy idea of a noble sportsmanlike battle which bears no relation to what the Predator actually does.

Get a fuckin grip man. Calling people ‘cowardly’ for not playing the game according to your BS made-up rules.

The severely wounded Poncho who could still shoot his gun? Unless the FT can shoot you from the ground without lag, that’s nothing.

I said nothing about invisibility or traps. Maybe you should watch the movies again, get an idea of what the predator actually does, instead of whatever “fantasy” you remember.

In regards to Predator, it is cowardly. And based on the metrics of the movie lore, you are.
