I’ve noticed when I parry the predator there not enough time to go up to him and use knife or maybe I’ve done it it’s just not visually conformable can u make the predator grunt in pain or show green blood when he gets hit by knife I just can’t tell if I’ve hit him with knife after parrying

He reels back and makes a noise. His whole torso pulls back like he’s been hit by Mike Tyson. In addition, the parry/knife is already a big problem in this game. Let’s not make it worse.

Fck parrying the idea that a combat knife can deflect a alien tech blade gauntlet is crazy and cartoon corny.
Parrying is impressive and skillful without a doubt but it has to have a sensible place. In fighting games like Street Fighter for example it makes sense but not here.

This is an example where parrying is sensible. But having a combat knife go toe to toe with Predator’s wrist blades.

Video games have to be playable for ppl after all some realism has to come out, it won’t be fear if all u can do against a predator is shoot then get killed, they gave parrying stamina now so blocking a blow from a strong alien predator tires u, whats the problem? Pre patch u could parry all day long but not now
If they did fix the parrying and put a cool down to it then i’m all for it. I did not know it was fixed in the latest patch.
u can still parry spam lol, the stamina amount is barely noticeable lol

Agree with you 100%
It wasn’t. They added a stamina cost for parry but you can still parry with zero stamina, completely negating the point of adding a cost.
Problem is the fireteam has guns, and if they’re working together (which is the entire point) they can shred a Predator in seconds. They shouldn’t be able to just endlessly parry melee attacks. Yes they added a cost, but the cost didn’t change anything. First, it’s so little that you can still spam it 4 or 5 times before running out of stamina, secondly you can still parry with ZERO stamina. Meaning that the “fix” did absolutely nothing.
The parry should only be there as a “Oh shit, I fucked up and I’m alone. Hope I can stay alive long enough for my team to help.” Kind of thing. One or two parrys should be all you get, then if you team isn’t there, they either weren’t working together, or you weren’t. Parry shouldn’t be a get out of jail free card for failing to play as a team, or a way to solo the Predator.
The Predator is supposed to be able to pick off foolish members of the fireteam who separate from the group. Otherwise, all he can do is spam caster at you from a distance until you go down, and then claim a trophy IF there isn’t anyone else there to revive. That doesn’t make for interesting or varied gameplay.
The fireteam is very strong. They do a hefty amount of damage and if they work together a Predator can’t even get close enough for them to need parry.
It needs a further nerf.
