As much as I am enjoying this game (Level 95 as of writing this with no exp boost) I have run into a few more bugs which are making the matches less enjoyable.
For starters, almost every second game I am having visual issues when trying to reapply mud as the Fireteam. At the start of the match it all works fine, however once that initial mud has worn off the prompt to reapply never appears again. I can still mud up but not knowing when it has worn off properly is a big pain against the thermal vision.
Second issue which I’ve encountered a few times over the past couple of days is when going to defuse the Predator’s bomb, the minigame comes up as usual but then reverts back to my movement and shooting controls whilst still trying to disarm. This is a specifically annoying bug, especially up against a good Predator who takes all game to be downed and then the option to defuse is ruined by this clunky glitch. Please for the love of god get this one fixed! Considering it’s happened a few times to me, I wouldn’t be surprised that it has happened to other players.
A final note, the hotfix that came after launch addressed the matchmaking quite well, but now I’m finding it takes forever to find games since the most recent patch. I’m not sure how the matchmaking is set up (Region based > level based?) but it’s getting to be a chore just finding a game, and 99% of the time I queue as No Preference.
I would love to see the crossplay parties be fixed soon too however I realise that is probably more on Epic Games and Sony’s compatibility with each other than on the game Devs.
Thanks to anyone who spent the time reading this wall of text.
Predator: Hunting Grounds is an amazingly fun game, just hate to see the small bugs falling through the cracks.
