New mode (Predators style)

#1

I’d like to see a mode that drops the FT in like they did in Predators with no idea where anyone us and the predators have to hunt them down.

There’s no target isolation and the fire team have to link up and once they have linked up they get a damage buff.

The FT only become aware of other FT members once they are in close proximity and once linked up will appear like they do in a normal game.

At the start the predators have the upper hand but a fully linked up 8 man ft will be more than a match for 3 predators so it’s up to the FT to move around stealthily till they have a big enough group to fight back.

What do you guys think on a mode like that? Or do we think that would be too hard to implement?

im down for a mode like that could call it amnesia or somthing you just wake up in a random place with little to nothing

Im down for this mode 👍. It would also be great if each player got their own falling intro with each individual landing differently, like the film.

I like the idea of the individual cut scene for the FT and the predators appearing like the did in the movie, appearing out of their cloaks. No roar… I think we have had enough of that by now lol

I like your idea of players being stronger as a group. So how about some kind of countdown (not sure how long) for players to find each other and regroup before the predators are deployed? I think it would add genuine suspense and fear especially if your a player after the countdown and who is still alone.

A count down sounds good, the suspense would be brilliant and not even the ninja players that can go toe to toe with a predator can take on more than 1.

I can’t think of the end of match goals, I guess the defaults that either side are dead but what could be the equivalent to the chopper extraction

Ok here’s what i got. Game Length: 20 mins.
FT has 3 minutes to regroup before preds appear
Once preds appear (17 minutes left) FT have the remaining time to make it to the ship which is pre destined for earth.

You have two options.

  1. Kill the preds, locate the ship and leave.
  2. Locate the ship and leave.

If you have choose option 2 and board the ship. The lead predator has the ability to blow it up (just like in the movie) via a mini game similar to the one FT use to try and diffuse the preds self destruct bomb.

Only the lead predator has this ability though.

That sound epic! And you could say that instead of a lead pred you could have it that they have to be in a certain distance from the shop to activate it.

What OP said except its a battle royale-esque Hunt:Showdown mode as that helps a lot of the balancing issues and meta bullshit. RNG perks. Throw in permadeath if you want but that might be too scary. Would definitely enforce more stealthy gameplay on all sides though.

FT starts with starter guns and has to get OP stuff from AI or weapon crates. Maybe stargazer vs voodoo. Same sort of thing for pred, allow them to kill eachother for weapons. Either last man standing for pred or put them on a squad. No second winds, just immediately roll the player into a self destruct sequence, preds and FT caught in it die. Go nuts.

Fornite style falling down onto the planet with packs on.

That’s what we were thinking with the cut scene but that would be a good idea for starting the map and I’m thinking a thick jungle setting like the movie

Honestly this game would’ve fared better as an Escape from Tarkov style large scale squad multiplayer. PvPvE where you go in, get money & extract out or cut your losses. The only way you can make players play stealthily is to actually punish them for dying.

I think you’re right, there isn’t any point in it atm

There does need to be more emphasis on hiding/stealth, the predator should be feared and its a joke and seems to get worse after every patch.

#15

I think FT should have their regular loadout, but have opportunities to acquire different gear and weapons
