I don't think Predator needs to be buffed as much anymore.

#1

Some improvements needed - like their clunky movement sometimes, yes. The spotting mechanic too absolutely. And parrying needs to be looked into for sure.

But otherwise, yeah - going from dominating with randoms in FT just a couple days ago to now having plentiful matches of getting absolutely slaughtered by smart, tactful Predator players. I’m shedding a tear lmao
Let the paranoia begin!

Very happy to see more Predators using their mobility, traps, ranged attacks, and not spamming when they come in with the combistick/claws (though there are are swipe-happy Zerkerush Predators about…)

After all those rants n stuff. All they need is to learn. They need buff? uhh… kinda? Recently I’ve got so damn annoyed and upset by Hunter Predator that just keep firing super charged plasma at us all the time while stay out of our sight. VERY HARD to kill because he kept changing position. In the end FT were defeated but hell I’m glad theres more people who played as Predator getting good at it now.

Yeah absolutely man
The change I’ve seen in not playing for a day has been massive - sure there are still new Pred players that charge into the FT and get royally shanked and parried still, but they’ll soon learn too

It’s been enjoyable and terrifying coming up against Predators that use every bit of their kit and mobility to their advantage… true Hunters.

Predator mainly needs polish and Bug fixes, the only tweaks that I think should be implemented to the predators would be a minor nerf to the berserker and a buff to the scout. The main nerfs I see should be given to the FT since they have greater advantages that the predator.

Yeah, even that sounds great!

But first and foremost - I wanna see all these nasty bugs fixed and matchmaking optimised
These wait times are the devil

Wait times can be pretty shit for me it’s anywhere from 4-6 minutes which isn’t nearly as bad as some others but still I understand why. I played 3 matches as scout yesterday and all 3 I could have wiped the FT but kept getting hit with most annoying bugs like the PC hitting invisible walls, climbing trees only to fall through branch’s and get stuck, severe lag/ frame rate issues (it seemed to be lag even though my connection was great all day except for those 3 matches any other online game I played ran smooth), my stamina bar would no longer replenish, and I was unable to claim any kills at all.

Wow… that’s- yep. A shit load of bugs and glitches - I’m sorry to hear about that experience. Not fun at all

I swear, if this wasn’t a game based on a character that so many of us love, we would’ve legged it after the trial weekend
I do believe Illfonic will pick up the slack, it’ll just take some time

Yeah they just need time to take in the feedback and implement the changes, I don’t expect this to be fixed anytime soon though especially with a pandemic forcing people to work from home. If anyone thinks otherwise and expects immediate changes then they’re fooling themselves.
