Patch Notes 2.08

99,999999% of the Predator are like him. If you had been there you would have died in 2 mins like him. This game is so much in favor of Fireteam in general, it’s not amymore even a cross platform issue.

To be fair in fps you also have to manage enemy positions

A yes, god forbid you have to pay attention xD.
And pred doesnt?

They have 1 to look out for, he has 4 that are at this point, deadlier than him.

I’m speaking in terms of general fps games

Fair enough but my comment still stands.
I dont think paying attention is a huge skill, more of a bare requirement.

I agree. Many PS4 players are just kids that dont even know the button mapping. Lol.

And what about target prioritization?

Is knowing when/who/how to attack a skill?

When to frag/flash

When to move

When not to

This is all just common sense shit.
The only ppl who I ever see struggle with this are people who dont care about playing well, or trying at all.

I dont see how ppl think these simple things are skill.
I really dont.
It’s just common sense.

I’m really not trying to be an asshole to anything but I dont get how ppl think any of this is complicated.

Dude, your words are just a load of contradictions. Do you even know the definition of the word ‘skill’?

According to Merriam-Webster.
Skill: the ability to use one’s knowledge effectively and readily in execution or performance.

If a player doesn’t know the mechanics of the game, weapons, damage, perks, gear…he will not have any skills. Those who actually take the time to test damage, bugs, performance…will have the upper hand because they will put that knowledge to use and shred the pred, or the ft apart.

You speak out of frustration and disregard everyone who doesn’t agree with you. This is common on this forum.

You claim that FPS require no skills. That’s a false statement. Anything you do effectively in life requires you to use skills, which is connected to knowledge and physical abilities.

But, you can continue to say that ft players don’t need any skills to win, that’s your opinion. Difference between opinion and fact, is that the fact remains regardless of someone’s opinion.

FT need less skill than Pred for sure

No question about it

They have the numbers which is their greatest advantage

So playing good with the FT is common sense, but playing like a hunter with the Predator is not?
Okay… Yes I win around 50/50. I play public parties. I dont have a pre made FT. I wish… lol.
At this point, i can say for sure that I only lose with real pro Predator players. Players that know how to attack /long range at first, using bear traps, using the trees… And, the most important is absolutely never engaging FT when in group…

Maybe. But i would never have that approach. I would’ve approach them from behind.
And after that first sniper shot, i would never get to high stances, unless the mission get to another point of the map or i managed to kill that sniper.

4 men on the roof = every one look at a different position, there is no escape

Honestly the only people who I really see ever saying fps requires skill are pc players.

It goes with what I’ve said before.
If people are good at something they want to believe it requires skill.

Fps boils down, looking at a target, hitting it, taking cover when you need To.

Given how unreasonable the amount of damage the ft can do now, and how it’s been that way for months, I dont see how any good players think ft require skill.

Yes I’ve been frustrated because I wanted the game to succeed and be great.

And the most important thing for that to happen is the game being balanced.

Just because a few pred players are good and can manage to work past the bullshit does not mean ft requires skill.

You guys look at specific player scenarios, I’m looking at the characters and gear.

Pred need more skill at intermediate and high level. But it requires less for low level population because you can go 1 vs 4 spamming wrist blade or Elder sword.

Again, you threw out your opinion. Nothing you’ve said about skills is factual. Even saying that the only people who claim that FPS require skills are PC players is a false statement, because it implies that not a single console player ever has made that claim.

Ft is not complicated.
You’re problem is you’re playing with randoms.
These people do not care about playing well.

You realize that right?
So trying to balance around them fucks the balance in this game entirely.

Tell me, considering the ft has no real reason to split up, if the pred isn’t Allowed to attack the group then when is he supposed to attack?

None of the pred gear can force the ft to split up.

Sigh.

Honestly you are the only one I’ve ever seen to say that. Shooters have a gigantic learning curve . There is only one Shroud in the world and only one Dafran. Also in most of games there are ranked system, why not every one are in the highest rank? Because there is a huge SKILL gap. But what ever I dont care about that. The only import thing is pushing Illfonic to nerf this god damn fireteam.
