#41

Good question.

#42

NOPE LOL apparently a mighty alien warrior cant lol

#43

It’s a game. An unstoppable melee train wouldn’t be fun.

so is a midget human being able to block a massive Predator’s attacks with impunity lol

#45

Nope he takes it up the ass. But that’s okay though. All you gotta do is net him slash a few times then blast him away cause punishing him for being alone is too much and we gotta counter everything the predator does lol. Takes skill to be a predator. But you can just flick the knife and block his club, combi stick, wrists blades, etc. etc.

Apparently human metals are hella strong compared to Pred weaponry lol

I’m all for counters but if you get separated or went off on your own. Your ass should be grass for making that mistake not oh I’ll just counter til my team mates arrive or use all your weapons to kill one guy seems kinda silly lol. Hey ho

So can a real human being be magically resurrected after having his spinal column torn from his body? Can a real human being take a friends grenade to the face and survive? You see what I’m saying? This is a videogame and certain liberties must be taken to create a fun game. This includes being able to counter a melee attack from a 500lb alien. It’s a game, it’s not supposed to be realistic.

It’s not about being realistic. It’s about balance and being rewarded for breaking up the team and killing the lone target for being too far away. As long you stay with your FOUR man team you won’t need to parry cause going in on a full ft swinging is a suicide for a pred. The team has already got heath and ammo up the ass. If you want to parry it should be high execution. the Other weapons are useless you shouldn’t be firing a plasma cannon up close that’s what the melee weapons and net gun are for. There’s a pistol but that’s just a pee shooter right now. The predator player works his ass off to hunt it should be just as hard to stay alive when 1v1 a predator not a cakewalk

The Yakuza guy did, although with a massive Katana, not a butter knife.

especially If you’re going to give the fireteam a get out of jail card and undo all that work you just did with full health, it’s not right lol.

I get parrying the wrist blades and the elder sword 1v1 but you shouldn’t be able to parry a heavy ass club or combi stick. If you end up 1v1 a predator you f’d up and you should die easy to his heavier weapons. Don’t wanna 1v1 the pred… Stay with your Fire Team and light him up

Quick no to this. The predator “spamming” his melee is like saying the fireteam is spamming bullets. It’s one of his 2 primary weapons. So entirely negating that makes pretty much no sense. Needs to be nerfed heavily. A good fireteam member can currently 1v1 The Predator, and in a game balanced around 1v4 you do the math that’s not balanced.

Lmao just don’t stray too far from your teammates.

#57

i’m all for the predator requiring stealth oriented skills to get his kills but a 1v4 game should be balanced around a 1v4 game. :)

A roll or dodge that drains stamina is a good suggestion
