Two sniper shots. Bolt action

#23

Yhyh you are asking no worries

#24

Thats crazy it should be one bullet+they should remove that invisible soaking damage field around branches

#25

But it feels needed. Idk it’s a pain in the ass.
I could like with out it, but I know a lot of ppl use the trees

#26

Its clearly there to save preds head from some headshots

@Fire No idea how plasma blasts would lose potency with range, they are not invented from what I know.
As it is now pred picking from above a building and sniping with plasma blast and no hit scans and weapons losing potency… Meh… Thins is, as I said before this needs to be a 2 way street, get some, give some.
@Kabe40 I don’t do predator, no. I also don’t use snipers. On the other hand its a blast to empty a clip in the predator as he run in the trees and all you hit are leaves. Same for on the ground, in the jungle as he runs trough the bushes.

How far does a rifle have before bullets start to lose effectiveness? 300 meters?

The problem is maps are too small.
Sniper has long range,
Assault rifles medium,
And SMGs are close range.

So SMGs start losing damage after 100 meters,
Rifles after I wanna say 150 or 200.

And snipers maybe 350.

I still feel like you’re trying to be balance off of 1v1, not 1v4.

I’m certainly in support for this sort of idea as it stands right now there really isn’t a reason to use any predator class that isn’t hunter or elder because all of the others either aren’t specialized enough or Are done so to a fault like the berserker currently the jack of all trades simply wins out due to it’s flexibility and raw stats having a 4th perk slot for class restricted perks would be much desired if all of them aren’t built in as is due to balancing concerns it could also create a reason to use generic classes if they instead of being forced into a set of uniques like 87 they instead had the choice to pick among limited choices

Take hammerhead, can’t say in meters (in a game) but its not far. Yes you can hit the predator but does little damage.

Nop, I am trying to balance around FT not having hit scan for bullets. I am sure you realize this is a big nerf.

#31

Man I’ve been saying we need to add more movie passives for preds lol this is a great idea!!!

#32

You know I’ve been thinking that it’s not. Cause you would be able to lead your bullets.
A huge advantage vs mobile preds.

Idk I’m just not liking hit scan for this game anymore. When I play ft I mean.

#33

I like this idea. Alpha could receive bonuses for using the Sickle, Combi, and disc (His figure comes with the Sickle and the Combi and disc are the two closest things have to his other weapons).

Great idea but to add my thoughts in
A. I’d rather it be torwards a playstyle rather than specific weapons. This allows for more flexibility and variety. For people who like weapons that aren’t covered by a class already you just have to take the F. Plus if you have 3 preds around melee than thats more variety than having to pick the one better at combisticks, or better at the elder sword.
B. Imo the FT needs that build variety first for the health of the game rather than the preds who are the most popular at the moment. (Best case simaltaniously considering balance)
