Most predators are trash except....

There are a choice few who are good. Win or lose I enjoy the fight. Most of the actual hunters win. And it is great. But meta trash who try and ride an easy win are killing this game. Nine times out of ten we melt Berserker combi stick trash. It doesn’t make it fun. We’re not here just to win we are here to enjoy the game. The fact that there’s no quit penalty is great. I’m tired of playing 6+ berserkers in a row. Winning is great. But losing to a superior enemy is better. It makes us better. Show us the class prior to starting. I will quit every time I see a Berzerker. I don’t care about your experience at that point. I am tired of Berserker trash and so is almost the entire community. You are ruining the game for Berserker players who actually try.

Yea know, I read this and all I can think is the flip side of that…

“Most FT are trash except…Most the time I end up fighting against Support FT’s with nothing but the LMG and Minigun. I’m tired of Support Trash and will quit every time I see one. I dont care if it ruins your “fun” that you’re trying to have.”

So yea…you’re damn right I’m going to take the Zerk most the time for the HP. Hunter and Scout get melted in now time if they get to close to those kinds of FT’s. Not to say I’ve gotten my fair share of wins against the setup using Hunter with Bow and Disc or Scout with Combi / Bow…but one wrong move and you get smoked in a heartbeat.

Weird. None of my FT play support or use the weapons mentioned. One of our guys is a pred main too. The meta needs a fix for both sides. I’d rather lose to a Berzerker who actually hunts than shred a metazerker. I have no issue with that. Where the hell are players like you?

Honestly? Getting tired of the group of hackers / glitchers / exploiters ruining the fun that is the hunt, and the long ass que time to get into a match as a predator compared to the 30 seconds it takes to do a FT match. Personally I love the hunt and if the FT is all PS4 players I’ll have some fun with them during the match hunting, stalking, decoying. Will do it most the time until I start getting spotted or shot in spots that I know its hard as hell to see the Pred when not cloaked, let alone cloaked crouched and not moving. Then I’ll go full combiham on them and wipe them the first chance I get.

Sometimes you get what you ask for.

That shit. Is what we’re looking for. We’re PS4 if that gets ya but an actual predator is what we’re looking for. The hunt. It’s not a brawl.

Best FT match I watched recently, and is why I got the game in the first place, was a guy that would throw the Combi at a random person, run through and hit one of them a few times and leap away with Combi. Rinse and repeat most the match. He toyed with them hard, and they were all laughing and joking about it the whole match.

That. Was an unorganized fire team. And not my issue. It’s the combistick meta build. You didn’t even have to use your net. Which would have secured that win faster. You waited. You picked off the “lone survivors”. Well deserved.

That’s just good tactics. We got stomped by a scout with a bow and combistick. He’d pick at us with the bow. Then combistick. Melee and run. As soon as you got close to trying to revive would nope it with a ground pound. That was good tactics. Hit and run. That was a hunt. Only reason we won was the revive after feeling out his tactics. Didn’t speak English but I messaged. Best game we’ve had.

Yeah, I use net when dont want to get parried, or for CC when I want to thin the herd. If they arent staying tight they get picked off.

Absolutely a good tactic. The combistick meta rush just isn’t fun is the issue. For anyone. Win or lose. That or what Tiredofhackers was saying. I’m down for. You deserve the win for outplaying. I’m tired of it being ruined for real Berzerker players. Melee your heart out. But it shouldn’t be 50/50 rushing a full fireteam sticking together and lighting you up.

I just hate how easy it is for FT members to constantly parry the attacks. Played a match where the guy parried almost every single one of my attacks

Yeah I agree most people are big succc but just leaving cause you see Zerk is dumb cause people just blitz with every class. Now and then you get the guy who tries to leap around with the bow but he’s just terrible and only hits 1 out of every 5 shots.

They need to fix parry spam. I think a good fix would be a system where a parry does decent damage but a failed or within a certain time frame of an FT swing was more damage than a normal melee

Yeah we don’t enjoy that either. But the one who throws decoys and pot shots. That’ll trash a good fire team. We will stick it out for a Zerker but the issue is pubs. As soon as you see a Zerker it’s generally meta spam and not worth the time with no teamwork. I was maxed before the update and am a fireteam main. I didn’t need wins or xp. I just want to play against a good enemy.

Yeah I feel you it’s super annoying when the game lasts 2 minutes cause they try and blitz you but you just clap there cheeks cause that shit doesn’t work, and has never worked. I feel like it’s a huuuge advantage for me though when I play predator because people get so complacent playing shitators that they play way too laxed and I just wipe them. So the problem is now effecting both sides

Oh it works… the vast majority of FT are PS derps who arent on coms and dont cover eachother. 90% of my matches would end in in 3 minutes if I wanted them to. A good FT is as rare as a good Pred.

Jesus…that predator they beat must have been horrendous

I like this and
I understand it but it came off toxic asl so i don’t respect it but at the same time I agree I run berserk a good way where it’s fun then I’ll play FT and half to melt rushers and it makes me mad the game needs to be fun

Apparently. They disappointed the hell out of me though. I just start recording as soon as I hear any trash talk or cocky bs.
