Lets speak about Reinforcements

#13

i think its OK just some aspectss of it are a bit off.

Like you can activate it and tick some time down, then leave teh area then come back and finish that time. I think that should reset if u leave the area for 5seconds.

maybe reinforcments should come back at a different location, close but not right there.

or maybe they come back with only half their loadout gear…

I dont mind the mechanic, but sometimes it is overpowering if you are only just able to fight that team, them getting that off can mean its impossible to even have another chance at winning.

But at the same time the randomness of it, and if that 1 or 2 person can get it in time before u kill them… its all variables and i do like that about the game.

#14

As soon as they respawn send a fully charged caster shot into the group and wither them down with a bow or disk.

#15

again when i talk about these things im not talking about potatoes they can have 3 reinforcments for all i care it makes no difference.

im talking about higher level teams, good squads, “deathsquads” whatever u wona call them. thats the only time it seem overpowering.

But again i dont mind… its fine

#16

i am playing 9 months , its funny when you dont have arguments and ask stupid questions
and i play both ft and pred

#17

its not thers no argument its trying to see what perspective you are coming from, there are a lot of new players that see predator as overpowered, and a lot of new players that see things from a new player perspective. so its a fair question to ask.

#18

they can do these things but they we have the problem of leavers … 50% of my ft games someone just leaves after he gets killed

ps: he can check my profile my friend and see how many months i am in the forums

#19

yeah id get some friends and for a squad of people you know are decent.

Thats how this game is supposed to be played.

Create a thread asking for people of your skill im sure youll get some, the steam forums are also asking for fireteam members.

Randoms are random u cant predict or balance the game around those kind of players who leave as soon as they are downed…

#20

if we make the assumption that this game is created for squads we have big problem (unbalanced af)
i dont think there is 50/50 win rate for best preds vs best squads

#21

true but there are people who have been registered on the forum since day 1 but dont play any more, could come back and it looks like they have been playing for the whole games lifetime but really have under a week of ingame experience. so its just easy to ask… “how experienced are you”

#22

I think Reinforcements should spawn elsewhere from the radio not directly on top of it.

#23

I’ll say this, a good squad does have a huge advantage over a predator however the reinforcements is not the issue.

#24

no best squads win all but a few times. they will tell you that. they rarely lose.

maybe 80% win or something like that… but i dont even advocate it being 50/50 - just a bit closer than it is now is fine

#25

yep iv had that thought but it cant be too far that the person doing the radio is left alone with no help… so its hard… maybe just the other side of the building or behind a tree 50 meters away or something…

But a different tree randomly between some, so pred cant just precharge a plasma because he knows where they will spawn in.

#26

or maybe reset the missions because if they did 1 missions before reinforcements it means they are back with full gear/weapons and they can finish fast (depends on the mission ofc)

#27

not really , they can do it like a trade , 1 guys risks to die and 3 guys are back

#28

yeh i think if the chopper is called then no reinforcments can come. thats definitly dumb, iv had the chopper called and then all 4 fresh as a daisy come back to like ahahaha

Thats dumb

well if the reinforcements is far away fro mthe chopper you dont care , they cant reach in on the time

#30

yeh but sometimes its literall right next to chopper so, just dont allow it. especially as u say , if its too far to matter anywhay then its not even needed.

#31

its not needed at all , just give a small buff to ft (or small nerf to pred) and delete it, it can stay in private matches) or atleast fully rework it

#32

Well I had a premade start the timer of reinforcement, the guy hid, I killed him then the Recon came out from doing the missions and just ran past the reinforcement and it said Fireteam has been reinforced. Then they were straight at the copter all under 5 mins.
