ILLFONIC DEVELOPER UPDATE
Well the last line about the Fireteam having a ânew way to traverse the jungleâ is moderately concerning.
Letting actual players test balance changes is a positive though, if they actually bother to listen to us.
Finally !!
Maybe a 3v8 hunt still hapening
Whatâs that about concept art? Are they talking about the predator in the right?And are we going to get dune buggies? The ones already sitting in the game?
nerf pred buff ft
Would love to see them add this stuff with the JotĂźn predator update would be a great excuse of why itâs taking so long to drop.
Additionally, weâre working to get test servers online for Predator: Hunting Grounds that will allow players to try gameplay/balance changes, provide feedback, and get sneak peaks of new content. This will also be the perfect opportunity for Fireteam members to test out a brand new way to traverse the jungle
sounds to me like they may introduce vehicles⌠sounds âinfuriatingâ to main preds, but as we know in practice it will probably be dogshit specially when even sprinting you encounter a million collision errors that prevent you from moving. So donât worry, its unlikely going to be something âgame changingâ
3v12
3 predators against 8 firetime is going to be insanely problematic for FT.
We tried 2 predators against 6 FT and it was almost impossible to win if the preds were decent.
Dune buggies that go slower than walking speed!!
Now that illfonic is speaking to the community are we going to get more âthey arenât communicating threadsâ and fix that buff this type of shit?
Rollback to pre 3.0 parameters and fix all the bugs and exploits is a start.
its a new day, weâve forgetten about 3.0 stuff whatever that wuz!
and why you deleting videos meant for me to see?!
Why are you hiding videos?
Why are you editing videos as to not show my anger towards you?!
@DEEZKNUGHTZ dELITIST!
Wasnât important, but GGs. âđ
That final slam was spot-on tho.
As much as I love how we are getting Test Servers to give honest feedbackâŚI sadly see some of the possible feedback working against the balance of the game. Different opinions could lead to unsavory results, but I hope it helps the game as itâs IllFonic opening up their doors once again to the community to work alongside them.
As someone learning Game Design, I can see they are probably running into a lot of bugs and errors (as they might have been working with one team on one class at a time), especially when working on a new class such as the JotĂźn which yes his class could be similar to Berserker or Viking, itâs the function of how the weapon will work.
They put a lot of effort into finally giving us a chain like weapon, making it possibly one of the most unique ranged weapons weâve received in awhile. So that being said, I can see this âBopperâ weapon having new functions, effects, animations, and fingers crossed when I say âexecutionsâ.
The problem is that most of the gameâs playerbase donât have a clue what they are talking about & Illfonic will likely balance the game around the potatoes, meaning even more Fireteam buffs, more Predator nerfs, and the game becoming even more absurdly unbalanced & unplayable to the point nobody will want to play as Predator & the game will finally die.
TBH, potatoes are so fucking clueless and dumb that they are unlikely going to be able to figure out how to join a test server.
I mean, letâs behonest here⌠more than half the console playerbase (including decent and good players) are so dumb they donât even understand the steps to join crossplay private matches let alone add someone as a friend from another platform⌠LMAO
To be honest, illfonic has made everything complicated as fuck and their shit doesnât work half the time. And ofc built in tutorial is a joke.
Thatâs very true but with what they were saying about a test server for people to test updates & balance changes etc. It sounds like they are essentially implementing a PTB (Public Test Build) in the same way as Dead By Daylight does, and only PC players can access the PTB there so I would assume itâd be the same case here for PHG as Illfonic are even more incompetent than BHVR so I doubt theyâd be able to figure out how to successfully port a PTB over to console aswell as PC.
