Yes, but look what they did in three weeks. They hit a fucking home run.
Patch Notes 1.06
3 weeks ? its a month.
My point is games now a day come out underdeveloped, not finished. Beta quality. Thats the standard now. Itās like buying a new car without paint job. oooo yh we will fix that later. But still paying full price.
Three weeks since last patch man. 1.06 was released on 1 May
ah ok
The parry mechanic is a little tricky, let me explain because this isnāt common knowledge:
Equipping the knife is the best method of parrying. Even better, the heavy attack - hearsay - even has a better parry frame than the regular attack. So what will happen is you will engage a guy who is perfectly trained at blocking predator attacks. Generally these players WANT you to get close to them. They run builds specifically designed to do this. They rarely mud up, they tell their teammates that they need to keep an eye on them because most (80+%) will generally jump in blind.
So in this situation āthe predatorā will jump in and lose 40% of their HP to that one melee player, while the rest of the team burns you down with weapons. You can - and will - lose all your HP in one single encounter. Itās quite literally āa trapā, for the predator and 80% of the playerbase will fall for it, because they arenāt used to it yet. It can 100% be avoided, if you know what to look for (actually be a smart and intelligent predator (which not everyone isā¦)).
So you got baited into a situation that will drop 40% of your HP, or more. But these āfightsā are really a 3vs1 because there is one guy who will equip his knife and do 0% damage if you bait him, make him chase, cut him away form the team. Then you kill him at range -> voila you got your first baiting situation and the melee guy is now dead.
Those 80% of Predator players who donāt pay attention? They generally melee chain every attack within moving away. They donāt pauze between attacks. Itās the most predictable āshitā ever good fireteam faces. And generallyā¦ we find them on the forums, complaining. Because they - still - donāt understand that THEY are making the mistake.
Remember: if 1 FT guy goes 100% melee, you are in a 3vs1 fight at range. Which is a 25% damage decrease if you play right. Go into a melee fight with them (they have a āmelee specialistā) and you can bet that you will get countered at melee.
This forces YOU (the predator) to adapt. Justā¦ likeā¦ theā¦ moviesā¦
If you canāt outsmart your enemy, you arenāt worthy - lorewise. Itās balanced, but you didnāt outsmart your enemy yet. I can bet that you use the same 2-3 strategies on most fights, until you meet your counter - again.

wanna counter the parry, take elder sword with the pred, hit 2 times, run a little bit around them and again 2 times. poke them out with the hp and then finish with the combo, is easy to counter parry this, they expect u to go full combo. friendly tip
If you play as Predator and thereās only 1 FT player in the lobby that is willing playing the match, leave.
Leave and live free of parry monsters.
its not difficult to make sure your team is spread out some people wont listen sure but they are idiots most the team will listen to advice i play both fireteam and pred i see it all the time i use combi stick caster and bow and ill take my team to victory as ft or lose as pred because 1 person knows how to play and is keeping the team working and moving.
guys new update!!
I actually have a really great suggestion, i think what this game needs is a proper big visuals update. Better surface graphics, better animations, and even having an animation when you are someone else on your fireteam is doing an action like unlocking a lock, pressing buttons, disarming bombs instead of it jusg being like every other game where they hold their hand there or just stand there while it says that you are doing that specific action, i think that would be an awesome addition to the game. Also maybe a campaign would be cool too

Man I love playing predatorā¦but i wonāt lie it seems to be getting harder and harder to get fireteams i try my best to cloak and stalkā¦ hit everyone one at a time. Sometimes even use the plasma caster and the red barrels to my advantage. But sometimes i just get lit from sniper rounds and fucking knifed from the shadows. Like i get everyone is adapting but my disc should it break. It threw that out and it got stuck in a car and got obliterated in like 20 secondsā¦ i didnāt know it broke i wouldnāt have used it. That match was an uphill battle but i got it at the exfile got that trophy. But i just think preds invisibility should be better and the weapons should not be broken. Thatās the whole point of that metal humans cant break it. But this is my opinion also im level 122
š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£ April Fools right? š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£ Mustāve been a one stab down scenario before?? Yeah, might want to check to see if that change hasnāt been cancelled out like so many other patch changes have with the latest updates.
What?
werenāt you the one constantly stating this game has no dedicated servers?
I remember talked about that in a topic several months ago. But, as far as i remember i said that only about Private matchesā¦
Remember when we got updates like this? Now compare to most recent patch notesā¦š
I keep on getting disconnected from the game please fix it
