Patch 2.0 Part I

Well because a four man fireteam needs their hands held obviously! Duuuuuh!

Don’t get me wrong, I want FTs to be a challenge. I want hunts to be fun and challenging. Some hunts before 2.0 were boring and easy, so it’s nice to make things tougher. But the mad swing in balance is disconcerting. I played majority FT today and Predators were no problem. Think I lost in one game. And in that game I’ve used the prey location ability, I’ve been cloaked and crouched for better stealth, I’ve apparently been very close to the FT based on the one guy that appeared. (Yeh the rest just have been muddied - they didn’t appear on my scopes). Then I got my mask one-shotted by an AMR hiding somewhere I couldn’t see, because my cool-down location ability gets to get beaten by mud, lost a heap of health to the first and second shot before I could bug out.

Great fun hunt for everyone involved there if my abilities don’t do squat and then I lose them with the mask to one round. I mean if you’re super-competitive and play just to win then cool, FT wins that game but if you want a proper hunt it’s unsatisfying all round

I love how because I called out his bullshit, and his narcissism I somehow only care about winning. Lmao no, I don’t just care about winning. He’d like that though, because then he could pretend his little hill he’s dying on is moral high ground. It isn’t.
Stfu.

Fireteams down preds as quick as they can, and then teabag our corpses, but we’re expected to drag the match out as long as possible while dealing with the most vocal bunch of whinebabies in a gaming community I’ve ever seen in a long while, AND we get the shittier wait time and no profit from it to boot. There’s literally no incentive to even play as predator other than it’s cool. But without us this game is a sub par fps in every way. You fucking fireteam players need us, yet you treat us like absolute trash and it’s honestly fucking despicable.

Here’s a question: were your not so challenging hunts based on balance or a fts tactical intelligence? That’s where I think people are getting it wrong. I like a challenge too and I have plenty of challenging fireteams they just have tactical intelligence. How I see it most fireteams just complain because they aren’t winning, they go into games with randoms, don’t use their mics to communicate and they blame their failures on ā€˜imbalance’.

You’re just even worse than I am then. I haven’t had a match as fireteam where we didn’t kill him at least 80% of the time.

I play both sides pretty regularly too. I just hate the fireteam side ALWAYS because frankly it’s boring, repetitive, and it makes me deal with PEOPLE. At least on predator side I have a chance BY MY DAMN SELF to kill people. It’s sometimes felt hard. It’s sometimes felt easy. It’s never felt unearned.

Only a few times in the hundreds of hours I’ve logged has a fireteam victory felt actually EARNED.

Honestly couldn’t say. Had some who mic’d up and talked and I slaughtered them, had some who didn’t use mics and they absolutely pawned me

Normally predator can tell which teams are tactical and which ones are tactical and which ones are not. Don’t mud up, they split up quite a bit, if you claim one they heal up and go to the reinforcement radio sometimes one at a time.

I’ve not encouraged many teams that don’t mud up. Even the dumbest Ft tend to mud up, stick reasonably close together. I rarely get games with people running off alone etc. I find I have to use my tactics to get them separated

Where as annoyingly when I’m FT people always seem to run off on their own haha

A lot of fireteams I’ve had were not tactical, and frankly that’s where I think personally most of the whining comes from, either side has a chance to win or lose and don’t need their hands held to do it. This game is a pvp game and one side has to lose.

Haven’t played the game in a few days. But will eventually try out the changes after the updates. My biggest issue is the increase in perk cost. I typically play support class with 50 cal and the 2xL. I know what I was using before perk wise will be probably be null now. But I am interested in seeing how the Yautja Bane damage buff will be.

It’s a buff, pretty self explanatory and not needed considering there is 4 people in a fireteam XD

Fairly aware of that. I’m speaking to how much of a buff did it receive. Not everyone in a FT runs it. I know I personally stopped running it because it seemed like it wasn’t doing much.

Yes, in the first matches after the update, I won most matches also. But now, I guess the most of the Pred players adapted well. I win at 50//50. And by winning, im not saying we kill the Predator everytime, but that sometimes 1 or 2 member manage to escape.

All this new shit, if only my game wouldnt crash when trying to start a match

I liked the city hunter roar a lot more before you ā€œfixedā€ it.

What I don’t like is cowardly FT members still hiding in glitched locations where they are impervious to damage.

And if anyone reading this is one of those people: just uninstall the game, since you clearly suck at it anyway. Go play Minecraft or Animal Crossing.

I think city hunter roar can still be better

Its definitely unerving when you hear it, I like it but its too short for the roar animation.
