Parrying the predator...

Yep, if the alien, unknown-to-humans metal Biomask can be busted with standard, human firearms then the knife breaking to a Predator’s also unknown-to-humans metal weaponry is fairly reasonable.

They can’t parry a arrow, or a plasma charge, or a combi stick throw or a smart disk. Or a slam attack and cant parry when netted. Adapt to the hunt. If you’re going 1v1 against a knife. Whip out your plasma caster which EVERY Pred has on by default. And blast them in the face.

You are not alone in your frustration over this nonsens pal! Most of us feel the same, judgeing by what is being posted on this forum. In addition to “super knife” there also is the problem of frankenstein kill squad(unfair reinforcment mechanics) Predator camuflage thaht at distance rather than hiding him - lights him up like a christmas tree and GODZILLA FOOTSTEPS that render the usless camo obsolet anyway… so yes, totally feel your frustration pal.

Hoever keep in mind this is a 1V4 mp game - it needs to be balanced so nonsens like that will take place in one form or another. Its just unavoidable

As stupid as that sounds - in this games univers its legit XD

So the sword and club are a waste of weapon slots, got it.

Can’t really agree. Main predator and in the dozens and dozens of games that I’ve played only one PS4 team was actually “good” whereas when I see 4 PC players in a group together more often than not they give me a good challenging match

Use net gun, problem solved.

Yeah, that lets you use your wristblades, but weapon swap takes too long to pull out the sword or club.

Why put good in quotations? Where they or not? And I cant find what comment your responding too, but while you dont have to agree, that doesn’t change the fact that I dont ever see a difference really between ps4 and pc players. And I’m pretty sure those good pc players you run into would do good no matter what system as long as they can adapt to whatever controller or set up they have.

Human parry stunning a pred is really Really REALLY fucking retarded. Stupid as shit mechanic.;

reading through this was hella entertaining

I was wracking my brain to think of any examples of a highly trained fire team member fighting a Predator with a custom combat knife?

oh wait, here is one:

Sorry I could not resist, I get triggered every time I hear the Yakuza counter-argument.

To be clear my stance on FT parry is that: It is not in the game because it would be possible, it is in the game because it is needed for game play/balance.

FT knife could use some tweaks for sure, but if it isn’t a knife it will be something else because the FT need something to prevent a Predator from just walking up to them and melee them down.

Would it be better if they pulled out a riot shield and threw their entire body weight into the Predator?
