My ideal patch (for now)

#1

::Fireteam::

Remove Yautja’s bane: Silly to have such a perk in a game where you fight the Predator. Of course everybody would want to pick it. Replace with a defensive perk or a perk where you gather more ammo from dead AI.
Grimtech pistol now starts with vastly more bullets or make it infinite ammo for it.
Have visual indicators on screen that show when abilities like Dante’s sprint armor, Duelist pistol damage, Fanatic, Reckless etc work. Small icons in the corner would be enough.
Remove friendly damage from plasma rifle.
Add a small radius to the mine (like the predator trap but half of it) or make it cheaper. 4 points is too much.

::Predator::

Add slow HP regeneration to the Predator up to 50% (example) of life = less reliance on pigs and able to pile on the pressure more. Would boost high hp predators like Berserker and Viking.
Reduce amount of pigs a little: because I think the pig mechanic is silly. It’s inconsistent and depends heavily on the maps. The Predator should not rely on pigs to put on a fight. Gameplay-wise I imagine that it’s not the greatest thing looking for pigs… HP regeneration would make more sense to me. Make the pigs a bonus, not a necessity.
Add another couple of equipment.

::A.I.::
Make it so incoming AI spawns further away. (example 100 metres always) That way it will be totally the players’ fault if he gets blasted by AI rather than get wrecked from a juggernaut that spawned behind him.

::Missions::
“Balance” some missions so they do not end in 3 minutes. Aim for each mission to be done the earliest at 5 minutes.

::Maps::

Fix excavation “hide into rock” problem in top left exfil position.
Fix excavation “cant mud up” problem.

::Veritanium::

Remove all blue Veritanium (leave purple and bricks) from the map to declutter a bit. Boost end of game Veritanium.
Once player has reached maximum level make it so he receives more Veritanium rather than useless XP.

And of course: Fix major bugs like bow, disappearing spear, arrows, mines.

I agree with this a lot, I hate relying on the inconsistent pigs, they either spawn too much at times in one location or there just aren’t any on the map at all. They also still tend to spawn mainly near the FT. I think this idea would help the berserker, Viking, and samurai a lot.

Glad you agree.

I can get on board with many of these suggestions. I look forward to the Devs completely ignoring them and breaking the game further in the next patch.

This is a fantastic idea since someone would have little to no certainty of whether or not their specializations are working or not (without testing…which should fall on the QA team, not the community, imo).

::Predator::
Add another couple of equipment.

This is way overdue, imo - if the FT gets specializations while the Predator does not, then an additional perk slot should be added and increasing the perk points for classes should be implemented.

Playstation player base agrees totally… but good.

On that note, I think next patch should allow for an extra pred to join the game if there are 4 PC FT members. Insert 1 Playstation Pred or 1 PC Pred. Just to see what would happen.

HP regeneration is where I agree. If you as predator can jump out and away clear of FT members, you should slowly regen all your health back because the pigs are not a reliable spawn mechanic. I cant even begin to describe the logic. Its as if its tied to someones dirty past.
And the regen state should be as quick as eating pigs unless you get shot at.
I understand the realism in the game and why pigs are eaten, its just not reliable is all.

I agree with all of them tbh and think the game would be better off with these changes since for the most part they’re just quality of life changes aside from the pred health regen as that would affect the gameplay quite a bit or at least I think so. Hopefully if they’re smart they will add these however I wouldn’t hold my breath.

It doesn’t have friendly Fire tho. It has self inflicted damage. Its your own fault you getting damage

This would be way too much to the point that it would negate healing kits altogether and just flat out break the balance in the preds favor.

#10

Yes but at the same time it’s whatever until they actually add FF to the game. I personally don’t want to kill myself because a teammate ran in front of me as I’m shooting when instead I’d rather it would hurt them for being that stupid.

True, but makes the weapon really weak imo

Lol why? Because you cant just blast the pred point blank? Seems very balanced in my opinion but what so I know im just a console peasant

Trigger control

I’ve never picked it nor do I think I’ll ever use it

They only spawn wildly if FT is right next to that particular spawn
