Leaping Preds are Sniper's favourite type of food (video)

This just proves that guns need to be switched projectile from hit scan.
Not only that, also proves that the ft does way too much fkn damage.
Typically I love sniping, but this just shows how fkn lame and broken ft is.

Yeah hitscan weapons with no bullet drop/travel time on snipers are kinda fked up. I definitely wouldnt mind them making sniper rifles as projectile based weapons instead of hitscan.

I also now agree with pred being completely invis after a certain distance with cloak on.
It’s sad that this is on this game. Cause if you were sniping like this on battlefield 4 shooting ppl out of choppers and jets, and hitting true snipe shots on foot soldiers, (500 meter+) then I would have absolutely loved the footage xD.
But this just hurts my soul lmao.

I actually was maining sniper in BF3/4 and 5. Before that I played competetively Team Fortess 2 in Premier European division in 6v6 and 9v9. I was also maining Sniper in hardcore sims like Verdun, Red Orchestra, Red Orchestra 2, some ArmA. So P:HG is kinda easy for me cuz of that. I usually do most dmg on the team just with this rifle alone. I got footage on another channel of mine from other mentioned games - pm me if you enjoy sniping montages :)

That’s why I’m saying, projectiles will even the playing field.
Bullet drop as well.
It will help a lot. But honestly most pvp focused games do projectiles now a days, so its surprising they went hit scan.
Sigh I wish they planned out this game better.
Too many bugs and stuff.

And the fact that you dont even need to charge the weapon. Predator need to charge a little bit the arrow and this makes him vulnerable because in the meantime that he load it, he cannot move quickly.
Also even if they buffed the crouch clocking (righly) the abnormal sounds the predator usually makes completely destroy his stealth game. Firetean can just hear from far distance the stupid sound and turn all the visual in that direction and if the predator does something they just melt him.

Oh how humanity is lucky we are using ~40% of our technical arsenal hehe
I mean Im not to brag or smthg but you can always PM me and feel free to play our squad against your “100% technical arsenal” or whatever lol. Its like you are trying to bait me here to think that you are “something” because you choose not to use some of Predator weapons cuz “LOrE ReAsOnS” lol. I watched some of your gameplay, you are okay but nothing that we havent hunted down in minutes before already.
Just saying that we are always up for challenge if you up to it yourself :)

yeah this is pretty much the only type of team i ever lose to when i play pred PC sniping squads
they literally never let you near them cause they can see you from so far away
feels so unfair when you play against them usually when i notice this is the type of team i’m dealing with if they trigger 2nd wind i once i recover i just let them play out the game and extract without bothering to keep fighting them

Don’t get me started on Derailed man… That map, if you face a team with atleast 2 (actually even 1 is enough) decent snipers - is a fking CANCER.
One or two of us get on top and dont even let the poor Pred to get in. Once we send him to 2nd Wind our scout/recons on the groundlevel start to chase him down with the “double time” perk. It’s over.
As a FT u choose the “Trainwreck” spawn, get on that rooftop and basically see the WHOLE freaking map. I have RTX 2080Ti, all setting set to Ultra and still - the draw distance basically disappears on Derailed. I can see the Pred from almost across the whole map. The bushes disappear, tons of trees and foliage / branches disappear too. Even on highest settings. Illfonic really needs to fix that sh*t up fast.
But it’s a bit different story on OverGrowth/Backwater.

Classic one trick pred that never play ft (how many times we have seen this scenario 😂), just ignore him.

lol I’m not referring to the in-game arsenal bro, just referring to the tech we have access to in-game lol. You guys and you’re presumptions are quite amusing tho lol…
Im telling you. When it’s someone’s turn to go Pred - we always ask the Pred player which map he wants to play because he gets to choose it. Almost NOONE wants to play Derailed :D It’s usually Overgrowth.
Sharpy - your aim is amazing.
Some amazing shots pulled off there- I wish I had your reactions!
GG man
