My overview of the state of the game

#1

So here I am, just got to level 44. That is how much experience I have playing only the fireteam. Probably joined after the update that buffed the predator, not sure.

Anyway, the predator right now its ridiculous. At first it was fine since people did not have the tools unlocked and learned how to play him but now its just crap. The bow is to powerful and the combistick/berserker just as well. All Predators need a health nerf and a speed nerf. Right now if you catch one in the open there is no way to punish him. He can stay there until he is low on health spamming attacks as you trade blows, then leave! He is far faster then the humans and he can leap as the Hulk.

I had quite a few times when a berserker with a combistick jumped in the middle of us, killed one and claimed him as we were all shooting him and he did not go down. This is just crazy!

The predator should lose 8/10 times if he is as skilled as the fireteam since said fireteam also need to work together to win. Coordinating with a team is added difficulty.

You can improve yourself, something that playing predator allows but you can never improve others. Unless you have a group of friends to play with, 8/10 games are going to be frustrating (at least for me). Again, I am right now 44 and only played fireteam. Played with randoms, they don’t stick together most times, they don’t look for the predator and a lot more. I am not even going into not using a mic. All of this leads into easy kills for the predator and even IF some escape this leads to some very frustrating games.
There is no way for me to chance a person who just goes and does as he pleases ignoring the group.

The predator should be tuned to stalk and chip away at the Fireteams health. Not spam arrows, plasma blasts and as he tanks damage and then go eat a pig… The berserker with the combistick is just crazy. Perhaps you can take him down with some heavy weapons if you have a well prepared group that coordinates and he jumps in but I don’t remember the last time that happened random.

Anyway, take it as you wish, its just my opinion/experience. Have a good day.

This update destroyed game balance,I’ve been watching toxic streamers wrecking 12 yo FT all day long,it’s just disgusting at this point.They turned Predator into Hulk with the ridiculous leap splash damage.Absolutely unplayable and unfair.
The guys are litteraly face-tanking.Remove Role choice at the start to calm all these ppl down.At least do that.

Predator is from the movies he’s fast and strong.

The predator does not need amplification yet. He is in perfect order and he has enough tools for hunting. This is the case when you do something wrong.

right. and back in the beginning the predator was chased off and bullied. thats why these changes happened you know that right? the plasma caster was nerfed a charged shot no longer insta downs … and other weapons was buffed. the combistick was nerfed. its a predator your against not the prey and no he doesnt need a speed nerf. he needs to be fast to traverse the jungle and find his prey. a competent team will shred the predator no matter what. leap as the hulk. hes a fucking predator … beyond super human strength etc honestly

perhaps you should try to play as the predator first and see how difficult it can be when the FT plays well, before you complain.

youre playing with bad teams, as you already admitted in your post. This game isnt balanced around teams that suck, its balanced against teams that cooperate the entire match.

remove role choice. people want to play predator. not as the boring fucking fire team … unplayable. go play the predator come back and say that. see how your experience pans out or fairs … lol @ unfair. what was unfair was when the fireteam was chasing after the pred like he was the prey and not the other way around.

This game for the FT is all about teamwork with a dash of skill. I play with my brother on this game and our other 2 rando pog teammates would die and we would take out the pred ourselves , just the 2 of us.
Its based off your team.

Lol. Y’all Fireteams are supposed to work together and complete the mission. Not seperate and KILL the Predator. Finish the mission.

This ain’t a “hunt and see who kills the predator first” game. Hes supposed to be scary. And yall supposed to be smart. Newbs

We all paid for the game right, playing as a melee zerker was justified… so we as FT can play as we choose too…
