Nerf knife

In my eyes I think stabbing to death a pred shouldn’t do as much damage because when I netted a lone soldier as soon as he got out he was just able to prison shank me and I got down to second wind

Knife is not op, predator can throw his spear and deal very large amount of damage that is what needs nerfing.

I also agree the combistick is very powerful but at the same time the FT have the sniper that takes you down if 5 shots and infinite blocks, I just think both these issues need to be addressed

It’s a spear getting thrown at you not a toy dart XD and yes the knife damage is ridiculous but if it doesn’t need nerfed than neither does the combi throw so preds have a counter for it just as fireteams have parrying to counter pred melee

Spear throw should be downed the knife does too much dmg dont even front

Pred should not run up to a trained marine and spam melee.

Stalk your prey, surprise them. Learn the Yautja code. You are not hunting cattle.

Bullcrap thats a copout anser by that logic the wristblade should counter the knife

I did separate them in fact I even netted him I’m just saying maybe close up the parrying window and downgrade the damage for the knife so maybe this master hunter can kill one soldier with a knife

Its ridiculous the amount of damage a knife dose. don’t get me wrong i like the parry mechanic and I think you should be able to hold your own in melee. but to be able to chunk the health of a berserker class pred is nuts. I even see player prefer to use knives over their guns. I say nerf the knife and give the fire team a primary melee weapon option like a machete or hatchet with the equivalent of what knives do now as damage with a bit more range on swings and replaces the primary weapon slot. At least that way it wont mess with my suspension of disbelief lol 😆 killing pred with a knife just doesn’t seem right at least a sword or something i can get behind.

The spear throw is the worst thing in this game. Way overpowered, please nerf the berserker and the spear.

The knife is great the way it is… because predator can easily hunt the fireteam… let alone his one shot laser. And his op combistick

Again preds need a balancer for the infinite parry killer knife and comb throws are part of that as is the plasma caster which if it really was true to the predator would blast a hole through a ft member even when not fully charged so be happy you are blessed with the window of dodging.

The knife is badass keep it…only thing we got against a Berserker charging full steam ahead

Found this on Twitter, like What? Near full health berserker class and only one dude? https://twitter.com/tetokunmeruhen/status/1255203159611371520?s=19

its a fucking spear not a stick. what do you think a spears going to do? oh wait for it impale you or rip you to pieces … yeah exactly. most things about the fireteam need changes or nerfs. or the predator buffs to be able to stand a chance and his weapons fine tuned and the damage output

easily hunt. the ignorance and bias is unreal. its the fireteam a competent fireteam does the hunting and chasing him down murdering him into oblivion wishing he never stepped out of space or onto the hunting grounds or playing field … lol. you must be playing with people who cant aim idk

Knife is OP. I have shanked so many preda to death with it. Parry stun is hilarious on a berserker combi pred who then gets pushed into second when by the rest of the squad stabbing him to death.

Its a no brainer. Knife is easily the game winner for fireteam in my matches. Game is boring now, predator is no challenge.

idk why people are complaining about the knife so much… whenever i use it, i get maybe one parry, and generally speaking, it handles like complete garbage lol i can’t even tell if i’m hitting the pred half the time, tbh.

i agree that parrying doesn’t make any sense but the main reason i’d want it nerfed or whatever is just because it just looks fucking ridiculous when you use it. it’s not a skill-based weapon and just devolves into frantically mashing, which doesn’t add anything fun to the gameplay. i also think that the knife, combi, and wrist blade should have their attack speed reduced. the animations looks choppy af.

attack speed reduced? so you want the predator to be hindered more than he already is. he doesnt need reductions in speeds he needs buffs … they should fix the animations make them look better then rather than reduce the wrist blade speed

if you want a balanced game then you can’t just blatantly nerf or buff one side or the other; both sides need tweaking. i also didn’t say that those are the only changes i wanted, those are just specific changes based on this particular aspect.
