Really, are you even comparing that?
Plasma caster is a blaster gun, not a direct shoot damage only gun.
Plasma caster can deal damage to multiple targets at once.
Plasma caster has infinite ammo.
Plasma caster deals equal damage long or short range.
Wanna continue?
This shoudn’t even be a discussion. Plasma caster is way OP right now. Thay’s why most Predator use Plasma Caster atm.
Patch Notes 2.11
Infinite Ammo, but you sure as hell have to stand still or move slightly to fire a lot of shots. You can’t use Thermal or Cloak or else you’ll overload quickly. Hell, if you’re using all three, you’re not gonna be shooting for long.
Sure, Predators can be sharp shooters with it, but that’s because they know where to aim and know where you’re going.
If you mean to tell me that you couldn’t find the Pred after he was shooting at you for like 10 seconds while staying in the same place, that’s your fault.
Plasma Caster is rendered useless after shooting off his Mask which doesn’t even take that much hits considering the amount of Damage a Fireteam Member can actually do.
Please do somethings about AI spawning right in front of you

I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
Preds play like that because illfonic pretty much made it the only viable way to play pred.
Dude you need to play with some people from here who play both sides so you can finally see what I’ve been telling you.
I’d still like to play vs your team as well.
Like I said before, you being a ft main, you want to have the complete advantage or 1v1 balance.
You already pretty much got 1v1 balance man.
You cant expect it to be any easier then it is for ft atm.

The PC is not OP fym. In order to do any meaningful damage you have to land a fully charged direct hit with it, you get about 2-3 of those depending on your class and perks. Afterwards you’re left overloaded and completely defenseless to anyone with half a brain. If you want to talk about overpowered damage then let’s talk about the SAW-Z. It can take out a scout in like 3 shots by a single FT member, Two shots to the head without protection will remove a preds mask, it’s great at any range, has a lot of ammo to boot.
Because it requires no skill nor tactics to be effective. The splash damage and radius are fucking ridiculous.
Now you can spam that shit even more frequently. That’s not balancing. That’s just listening to the vocal minority. That’s all they have been doing for the majority of their time. Which is why this game’s balancing continues to be laughable.
So what, you want a 1 minute cooldown between each shot?
How do you not see that the ft has the full advantage are you that bad?
Why are you assuming i blame Pred players?? I’m not!
I blame Illfonic.
Hey you right.
My bad.
My point is ilfonic kinda fkd pred players leaving us no other choice.
Ik you mostly have nonthing nice to say, but I can’t decide if you’re trolling or this is your genuine opinion on the Plasma Caster.
I do think he’s right about the vocal minority part though. Since the beginning Illfonic has been listening to the pussies who didn’t want to git gud.

Pretty sure we’re the vocal minority here, the majority are all the potatoes who go around thinking that pred is truly OP because they can tank 4 shotgun rounds.
If that were the case, Xenomorphs would be running around the game by now.
I have nothing nice to say? Huh? Wha?
I’ll say something “nice” about this game when it’s warranted. Again. The Plasma Caster spam requires no skill whatsoever. Period.
Especially now.
Skill has nothing to do with it. It’s literally a gun. What do you want the gun to do? Write you a essay?
The Plasma Caster is definitely better now, I will say that. But at the same time, there are good counters to the Plasma Caster in general. Run loops around the targeting, minimize damage until one of you catch him where he’s at and lay into him.
You could just blast his Mask off and render the entire thing inconsistent, practically useless time management considered. Practically no one is running Dithered Lens thanks to it’s Nerf and the impracticality of running a high cost perk into a very specific use and the chance for it to be rendered useless with the loss of a Mask means that you’re gonna be able to follow that red trail up to Pred.
This game is all fkd up.
Starting on the stupid AI, ending in the joke gameplay.
Also, is it only me experiencing ping issues after this last patch? I see nobody mentioning it here.
Yesterday i gave it another try, and i saw a bigger number of computer players… I wonder why… Also, in most matches, other players got high ping also… In one match i had +100ms and all other 4 guys had +200ms. This is not normal…
I have a fiber gigabit wired connection, all PSN and Illfonic ports opened and forwarded, no active VPN while running the game, i tried a bunch of different DNS… And nothing.
There is nothing that can lag this shit up… Before this patch, it runned smooth, no ping issues…
EDIT: I saw a couple of recent videos on YT from 2 of the best PHG players and they also complained about lag…
Waited a month to be entertained less than a hour… NEED MULTIPLE NEW MAPS AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD RAISE THE LEVEL CAP!!!

Theres way more issues and shit that needs to be fixed before they throw in new stuff.

Don’t ask for that.
More things=more bugs/glitches/poor gameplay.
They have to fix things first as things are right now. Then, they can start thinking on new features…
