Had this guy DTR after getting a couple shots on him, in a few more seconds they proceed to parry me multiple times with slashes in-between bringing me from full health to zero completely 1v1. I think the knife still needs some work. Maybe something like 1 parry per 5 seconds or slower slashes for a few seconds after a parry.
Knife Spam - The knife is still too powerful

Wo holy shit. Never seen it go that fast. And you got 6 total hits on him. Thatās crazy. But no FT are the real victims š

This player seems able to slash at a faster rate than normal. Your health bar plummeted like crazy. James Cameron knows people good at parrying but this parrying is ALMOST James Cameron level.

I hear the counter argument of ābut then the last guy would be at a disadvantage in 1v1ā to which I say, DUH. Thatās how asymmetrical games work. The team of 4 has the advantage. But as the solo player, in this case the predator, begins to pick people off. Heās meant to gain the advantage. Kinda screws you that they balance the knife around being able to 1v1, considering itās a 4v1.

Given he gets a perk cost of 6 as the Support Class, my only guess is he was using heavy hitter with iron lungs. Or maybe just Yautjaās Bane? IDK this was the first time Iāve come across knife/parry spamming like this since they originally re-balanced the knife a couple months back.

Itās a glitch, if you standing still you can do a glitch that allows you to do knife attakcs with incredible speed using the left mouse bottom and the melee default bottom. I donāt know how to do it but I know that this is a glitch for sure and you can do it with both ps4 and pc without any macro or something.

Hopefully they address it in the next patch then if itās an exploit.

Dont hope, they will never do this. They did nothing in alla of these patch except for slam cancel animation. I donāt think they will put any thing else except for their paid dlc.

I think theyāll continue to balance tweak here and there based on internal stats, but I guess weāll see.
Was that a PC player? Could Macros be to blame?
PS4, Crossplay was turned off.
Man thatās crazy I donāt have any idea then
Predator needs to be able to parry if we really want proper knife fights.

Another example here, this one even crazier:
This has got to be some kind of exploit. I thought parrying a couple times puts a FT member into exhausted state after the initial balance patch?
Wow thatās some serious bullshit

That wasnāt him with the knifeā¦if u can see when u enter the room u can see barely in the left corner thereās ft members on top of something before u attackedā¦they start shooting u when he was parrying u
No knife can u make bleed that fast lol
Pred needs a parry too. RT light attack. LT heavy attack. LT + RT for parry. This would open up melee for more options and an overall more pleasant melee experience.
