I find this game unplayable after the balance patch. I mainly play fire team and we haven’t even come close to killing the predator or escaping. We run out of bullets, ammo, medpacks and it becomes a war of attrition. I’m very disappointed because I really like this game a lot and play on PS4 Pro with crossplay off to keep it fair and we still can’t kill the predator. Prepatch we could escape or kill the predator about 40% of the time and now 0%. I planned on playing this game for years to come and I can honestly say that I don’t think I will play this game until they patch it again. I’m really bummed about this! Anyone else have this experience with the game today?
New patch has soured my experience with the game

Yeah, I have! I’ve actually been able to kill you guys. It’s great. Now I’m not chased through the jungle and hunted like a dog! The Fireteam has to play smart now, and I like it!

Disagree. The patch was needed. It’s not meant to be an easy road for FT.

Your whining about your Opness being gone and having to play it smart? 40%? More like 90%.

What do you mean cross-play off to make it fair?
Sooo really ur saying fire team needs to play it smart but wouldnt predator need to play it smart prior to the patch?

We did but the spot spamming is a breaking issue that predator has no affective counter too because of his excessive audio indications

But throwing grenades 3 team members shooting a berserker all while hes attacking a team mate and still had time to collect a trophy and jump to safty is completely fine lol

Played way too many Ft games and in every single pug group Ft members constantly brake line of sight to team mates and then wonder why no one is shooting the pred while it melees him down.

Problem was: FT got it easy and no need for deep strategies, while Predators need to plan every move.
Problem now: Predator have it easy and no need for deep strategies, While FT need to plan every move.
the solution is tricky, devs need to find the balance between the dmg the FT does as well with the Predator while making the FT feel like commandos and the Predator like a elite space hunter. Refine the AI behavior that should be an important factor to the game strategies… i only hope they get the solution before everyone quits.

greetings to all.
I am a player of both Pred and FT.
As an FT player tell you that I love to run out of ammo now, I love to run out of heal.
Now I have to ration the ammunition and measure very well when I use the kits.
The fear of the predator now exists. I love it and when we kill it it is more pleasant because of the effort.
My humble opinion.
Regards.

Spotting Counter Play / Aura on spotter
If spotted the Predator gets a 6th sense something is starring at it. Like when you get the feeling someone’s looking at you and you turn and make instant eye contact. This happens often in real life and it’s so fast we don’t process why we just make that direct contact
My suggestion is the spotter gets highlighted for a short time. The Predator could choose to focus and retaliate towards them .

Dont worry. After 4/5th’s of the player base leave all the casual cry baby Predators can melee spam against the AI after all FT players quit.

They ruined the grenade launcher and nerfed the magnum. My setup is now garbage. I don’t mind the pred being scary but I can’t use my setup. I liked the game a lot but I’m not playing until the grenade launcher is switched back to impact.
This damn corona garbage made me buy the digital version so I can’t even resell it. If they never fix the grenade launcher I wasted 40 bux. Boooo!
Otherwise a fun game. Please fix!

Nope. Anytime I play as my fireteam, we win.
We definitely can notice the lack of resources, but honestly it’s a great thing. Why? This means that class layouts are much more of a necessity now than before.
I have designated myself the official ammo and medical boi, by creating a loadout that directly caters to my fireteam as a Support with ammo and medboxes, along with the gearhead perk.
Guess what? Resources aren’t a problem then. It almost feels like it is how the game was intended to be played, wooo!

I wish that were true. I’ve still been killing predators in just a couple knife hits.
i play pretty much the ft exclusively, and i think the new patch is a step in the right direction. my main issue is games just not lasting long enough and that’s where most of the frustration sets in. there are very few times where the game is a hard fought win or loss. more often than not, the loses are a result of everyone getting instantly wiped from a pred melee rush.

If i had a dollar Everytime one or two of my teammates ran off into the jungle alone, or left me(or me and another guy) behind while we mudded up. I would be plenty rich enough to buy Illfonic and make them fix the game properly., 😂🤣🤣
