Youâre that kind of FT player that mains scout with all adrenaline-sprint perks, and bunny-hops after the predator through the jungle and ignores your team and the mission just to parry and knife them to death, arenât you?
the gamemode is going to be the saving grace or the straw that breaks the cammels back

At this point, all the game modes and content in the extended universe wouldnât save the game if the numerous game breaking bugs arenât fixed.

Definitely. I hope its bots for the Predator to play with huge ai rework
I know Iâm 3 days late to this, but I just want to expand on your point about skill.
The thing Iâve seen people forgetting when it comes to claims that predator is balanced and itâs just a matter of skill is that they donât really analyse their matches. They wipe fireteams and use that as an example. They claim they mostly win flawlessly with predator but they donât look at HOW they win. Which is just as important. Same can apply to the Devs. I remember around the trial the Devs said that the win ratio between both sides was pretty even. But I guess they didnât really look at how the predator was winning.
The thing Iâve noticed with most clips Iâve seen of predators winning is that the fireteam theyâre up against just arenât any good. Constantly making mistakes, not mudding up, reviving out in the open etc. So of course a predator would win up against a team like that. There are a lot of players that donât understand the gameâs mechanics in solo queue. So a predator winning because the fireteam are not that good at the game is more common than youâd think.
Of course there are those more rarer times where a predator wins because theyâre just really good at the game. But even then a lot of the times they struggle. But that leads me onto my next pointâŚ
Why should the predator require so much skill to play compared to the fireteam? The fireteam can be borderline brain-dead and still win a lot of matches. Yet the predator requires so much more effort to even become somewhat successful with. And that doesnât make any sense to me. Isnât the predator supposed to be the power role? Isnât the fireteam supposed to be the challenging role that requires teamwork to survive? And why should the predator be the least accessible role? Because of the massive âskill gapâ it just drives newer players away. Predator is supposed to be the star of the game. The reason people buy it. But itâs just not fun for newer players. They struggle with predator and then eventually give up. That just isnât right. Of course predator shouldnât be brain-dead either and constantly wipe teams even when a bad player is playing them. But it shouldnât be hard to the point where a lot of people are discouraged to even play as the predator.

I honestly could not have said it better myself.
This is pretty much what I have been saying.

I agree on your points completely but randoms make the world go round.
Sorry to burst your bubble but I actually main Support with Health and Ammo packs and I stick to my fireteam like glue.
Predator should be easy to learn, difficult to master. That way people who allready good with Predator they wont feel like they cant get any better thus encouraging different approaches and more creative engagements. And people who are just starting off arenât overwhelmed and can still feel accomplished while still learning and improving at a decent rate.
Correction, maps or lack there of will be a turning point or the end.
I love James Cameron. Aliens, Terminator, Titanic, Avatar. I absolutely love his work. I also am a fan of the actual ship the Titanic. The ship Jim himself actually explored himself and documented in Ghosts Of The Abyss. I would actually recommend watching that documentary, itâs really good. It gives me chills.
And no this guy is not that James Cameron. Why the hell would someone like James be in a chat like this. And I highly doubt he talks using his own name in his sentences.
You have no sense of humor. Thatâs all it is.
If heâs not @James-Cameron, then why am I standing on the set of Alien V watching them build the first ever king xenomorph?

Not true at all think about it people are not getting bored because of maps there getting bored because they have seen and done all there is to do if you gave them something new and Different to do it would go miles past what a Map can get you.
i can promiss you this, if they add only maps you will learn them and get bored of them FAST theyâll breath life into the game for about iâd say maybe 2-3 days if there a bad map and if its a good map a week its the gamemodes you will remember and its the gamemodes that will make you want to keep playing.

This is true. New weapons, perks, gear and missions will go a LONG way alongside new preds, FT and further personalization of our characters. It will all be for nothing if optimization and bugs arenât addressed asap.
The buffs to predator include, the combi sticks mele combo now hits as hard as the elder sword But slower, the alpha sickles full combo now hits 3 health points harder than before, I canât remember the damage numbers off the top of my head but Iâll get back to you on exact numbers. I do know it takes exactly 3 seconds to break free from the net gun. Smart disk mele combo is 3 hits and has very bad tracking but if all 3 hits connect its 125 damage same as its range damage.

So smart disk is one of the hardest hitting mele weapons now but itâs tracking is so bad it doesnât matter.
Where was the speed reduction on netgun victims? They can still move pretty much fill apeed, but now can extricate themselves even quicker? What gives?
