I’m still waiting on Illfonic to remove that spoon feeding mechanic that is target isolation.
Heavy hitter? Fastest melt I've ever felt and it was only 2 dudes and one with a knife...
That is a very bad idea (unless you’re joking again). What do you think casuals and new players playing predator are going to do?
Extend/eliminate match time and give Predator tracking devices he must plant on FT in order for TI to work
Do you have footage?
Ok so I’m getting your point. But you aren’t getting mine. Movement helps. But if you take it case by case that’s anecdotal. Yes sometimes people will miss. But you can’t balance off of people not being able to aim. What IF everyone tracks you just fine when you leap because its a team who knows your leap mechanic locks you into a set trajectory and they just melt you through the air? You have to balance off what can be done, not “what if some of them miss”. And again. If we like the current style, which I do for the most part just a few weapons should receive slight dps nerfs id say, then predator weapons need to match this. Certain guns are downing the predator solo in 3 even TWO seconds. The predator, unless he bear trap combi throw into wrist blades, has no way of downing Anyone even close to this fast. I’m getting bored of running predators down and feeling 0 suspense because I know he doesn’t have the dps to really get me in any trouble alone before I can get away or have my team close in
Footage of?
This is incorrect, I only had heavy hitter on and it went in heavy attacks
5 for scout
6 for hunter
7 for Samurai
Was done last night when I was farming masks
It’s a joke on an old forum member who was banned for being batshit insane so I’m just gonna stop fucking around now.
@Xan84, @BadBlood
Of what you and friend did in the private match?
Your sarcasm is strong.
I stand by my comment.
Not because I think Pred is op but because I think it would be fun.
That is why the devs are not balancing around people’s inability to aim (well not completely since at this point they are trying to get more people in) and gave predators all those nifty movement abilities.
The damage problem is there but in coordinated 4 man premades (something that does not apply here, he killed 2 people right at the start because they split off) with nothing but smashing that melee button(and a net). In randoms (like here) its fine man.
If he would have not lost his second wind by jumping in the middle of the lake with 3 people not distracted that shoot him up as he was doing nothing but throwing traps, he would not have died! He would have had second win later. I even told him this and he said that he decided to do that because he got bored… I mean… Yeah…
It was way back and we where testing some damage on weapons, I don’t have footage, sorry.
I don’t see how you don’t see this relates. You say it’s just two people so it’s not related to 4 mans. If anything this is proof coordinated 4 mans are too strong dps wise because take what they just did and DOUBLE IT. Again keep in mind I’m not saying nerf nerf nerf nerf nerf. All I’m saying is I don’t think the predator has the dps to match them.
The 4 man premades are a different discussion man. The predator is clearly at a disadvantage there.
Thing is those 2 where not even coordinated, he just put himself in a bad spot to be shoot at. In the lake before they did really poorly against him. We are talking about a bunch of randoms. They lost 2 people very fast into the game, 1 even quit after he killed him.
This directly correlates. If 2 uncoordinated dudes insta kill him what are 4 in coms doing? This is all clearly the same discussion of damage out put and if anything this shows exactly how rough 4 in coms can actually be. Do you think the game as is, is fine? If so that’s cool I’m just curious
I said 229 damage with heavy hitter.
5x229=1145
6x229=1374
7x229=1603
The math checks out. What exactly was incorrect?
Its not the same discussion. I am telling him WHY he lost AGAINST THIS TEAM. Not how well this game is balanced.
I was ok with how the game was even before 2.0. I was actually enjoying my build more. I was running support with Thick Skin and another perk that I can no longer use(not enough points), and they also nerfed the hammerhead this patch. So again, I did not really like the last patch for what it did FOR ME!
The balance of the game is, as I said another discussion and if you really want my opinion. its going this way since the predators were getting to 20 minutes que time. So what could they have done? They buffed a few things that help new players (like thick skin, THE FIRST SMG so people can use it fast) and gave tools that new players would really find use for. I don’t like any of the new tools. After this stuff they made a free weekend to get more peeps in. No idea what you would have done in their place but I am sure they did what they could.
So is it balanced when predator goes against 4 man preamdes? Fuck no, do I understand why they did it this way? YES!
I agree with all your points. I will stand by it’s the same exact discussion we are talking about ft dps as a whole. But yes I see what you’re saying about them making the game more beginner friendly
Naaaaaah I see what you did there 👀
Good catch 👏
