Agreed.
I do think Disciplined should be a universal specialization.
Predator Scout should have a specialization for 10% increased sprint and Predkour speed.
There should be a perk for quieter sprinting/landing with the intensity set to silent beyond 30m and half volume at point blank. Not overpowered but useful enough to approach silently and leap into the action or attack with stealth from range.
What do you think, @KameofWar?
Players need to accept their consequences
They’re both trash
But at least BT’s allow you to punish
Even with fast hands and trapper FT can escape way too fast to punish between the reload time and swap time just to use another weapon
You can’t cover fire for yourself, if I’m looking at a motion detector I’m not looking at FT who can then shoot me in the back
Plus have you played the game? FT can shoot these things underneath canopies, In corners, inside buildings.
Barring tree’s and the odd building, FT can get anywhere a Pred can practically
But a Pred can’t go inside of buildings or on ground level of an active FT mission if a FT actively watches it
FT can hide those things way easier
What? no, no, no. In fact, the opposite should be true. You shouldn’t know what predator you’re fighting until at least one fireteam player spots them, and the predator shouldn’t know your fireteam class until they’ve at least partially scanned you.
I’ll add it to the list later not home right now putting insulation in someone’s house
2 never seen a fr break a trapper net before a fast hand swap which is less than a second btw
3 plasma caster hits thru walls in case u didn’t know I mean cover as I. Peeking around walls which is cover fire
Even though that would be better that’s not the game we got cause of the scoreboard
And sorry I’ve lost enough games on load out select that I won’t budge from this take
Just no
This is pointless
Also how does it prevent loss at lobby for FT?
Since Pred can bait them into casual loadouts then swap, just like I mentioned in your last topic about this.
In the current state there is no counter picking so this doesn’t even buff pred but if we highball the future where there is counter picking, this straight up give speed an advantage.
Of course that’s assuming FT actually gets nerfed by then
Ft can’t lose at load out select because they have a mission to compelete which they can do instead of fighting predator
Predator however must fight ft which makes loadouts more.important for him
So you have a second to punish
Pred doesn’t have that kind of damage
You have to find them first and that’s assuming the canopy isn’t in a tight spot
…
Covering fire is weapon fire used to suppress enemy movement and actions in order to give a bit of breathing room.
That’s not how that works
The FT still has to contend with the predator. If they just Speedrun then they’re just going to get melted
Sure most FT builds work but that’s because FT is op
1eldee sword buffed does 90ish dmg with optimal play that person is downed and you take minimum hp loss
3 you’ve never played a cover shooter huh
That’s just not true I’ve beaten plenty of good predators mind you not the literal best by just hunkering down and doing the mission
Which it is unnecessary to balance the game around top 1% I want balance for the top 20%
In all seriousness, though. That’s part of the excitement and fun. Many games don’t let you see the other team’s composition until everyone has locked in a selection.
And nearly all good ft loadouts can can fight any pred loadouts even scout duelist can fight elder stalker no issue as long as primary weapon is a SAWZ
That HP loss is death
Yes I have
There’s a difference between covering fire and firing from cover
Don’t sound like good preds to me
Regardless even if we take that, that’s broken
If we’re looking at the future we should be expecting our loadouts to matter. Since this is all hypothetical anyways
How do you loadout lose in a game with no counter builds?
By running a berserker against a team running recon spotter assault deadly field medic and scout duelist
If I had know this I would run city hunter as an example
Predators don’t stand still lmao don’t use this arguemenr when we are assuming both players are good
I’m not disagreeing in general with you, but that 1.2 second TTK part of that clip is not legit. The minigun did get a shadow buff (2 shadow buffs this year) that brings the firerate to 60 rounds per second, but the max damage is 12, so the theoretical maximum DPS is 720. So even with Assault and Bane, and ignoring Hunter bullet damage mitigation and low health damage mitigation, the lowest theoretical minigun TTK is 1.37. That’s extreme close range and no missed shots, in practice, it’s closer to 1.62 TTK.
So the problem is your handicapping yourself
If you want to win don’t do that
And if you really want to go easy on bad FT use one of your weapon slots to bring the war club or go for stealth kills
If run a bad loadout the consequence is on you
Except melee animation locks you and ranged attacks slow your movement speed down to a crawl
I was referring to the others since the Minigun isn’t meta
You combine that DPS with 3 FT and it’s still less than a second
