I think the over all number of nets makes sense in terms of number of engagements, the Pred and FT might have over a match. Say 3 or 4 with the reinforcement mechanic (which is necessary).

I do however think it should have a reload period added after a number of shots… 3ish, maybe 4. So if a push is going badly, you back off and reload.

This solves spam better than nerfing the number of shots.

Against a group of un coordinated FT it is hard to deal with.

If your teammates have decent situational awareness the net gun can be countered fairly easy.

It isnt over powered. It just punishes sloppy teamwork.

Buff pinning, nerf the spammability then its fine.

If they buff pinning it needs to be by only a small amount, or on a hurt character ie. multiple pickups.

But yes that would be a good way to balance it if spamming is limited by shots.

i mean knifes break you out of it like in one hit so pretty much an insta-break free so no its not.

also you only get 15 nets.

Double also. it doesnt deal shit for Damage

its pretty much what i call the puckling device in the sense that i can take the best most skilled player and pluck him off your team breifly so you cant just rush me.

Ergo not op

if you looking for a tip on how to beat it every time.

simply make sure everyone in your group is Highly skilled.

if your all on top of your shit that thing is just a snack for the FT so i dissagree.

kinda shit that my advice is " get friends" but i mean this is a Team based game, you kinda DID sign up for this…

I don’t think it is. You can destroy it by shooting at it, or your team. No need to always use the knife. You need good aim to use it, so 15 sounds reasonable. Like someone said earlier, it punishes uncoordinated teams, but also punishes poor aiming preds. That is fair in all honesty.

Unless you are just salty because they put a cap on the amount of taps you can do to get out (tbh not an effective way to prevent macros but oh well…)

As others have said, if your teammates cut it off, it’s not that bad. However, if your caught alone for a few seconds, there is no counter, you’re just dead. This wouldn’t be the end of the world, but the predator can pull your skull off in 2 seconds. That makes it an issue.

#17

It needs a reload time of around 15-20 seconds

#18

The counter is stay together…
Example: if predator finds you alone you can counter netgun by

  1. Duck behing object
  2. Use unpredictable movements
  3. Be near a teammate not diagnosed w/ downs
  4. Play suppt
  5. Dont try to solo good preds
  6. If your having an issue with netgun… you prolly need a mental health check
  7. If you cannot hit the predator trade in your ps4

That’s not an issue. Being caught alone by the monster/killer in an asymmetrical game should mean that you’re screwed. If you just want to 1v1 them, then this isn’t the genre for you.

Almost have it push fireteams back. Far enough to pin em if they are away from a wall.

Debilitate even?

Havent seen someone handle a net like these FT members.

Movies made it seem like if you’re netted you’re screwed…
