Patch Notes 2.37 (Hotfix)

Bur your not delivering an enjoyable game, it seems like the aim is to use a franchise that will sell, make some money then move on to the next. Friday 13th, predator, next is ghost busters and look what’s happened with Friday and phg. Not going well and history is just repeating itself. This game has been out for 2 years now… After 2 years of a release most people are happy with the game that they play. Not the case here

On a company point of view, the most imminent and logical things to change are
A) make the content aviable/purchasable for all the players
B) fix the gameplay issues with that content

and this comment kinda confirms it.

Said so, fixed those main issues with the 2.37, the next patch MUST focus on the other problems,
the mask, the skin colours bugged as hell, the neck textures, the Exile predlocks, maybe a skin for the pistol.

This Wolf DLC really was a disappointment, far bigger than the Supers for me, so I really hope the “2.38” will do the work, or it won’t be more possible to defend any of it

P.S. those DAMN Exile’s predlocks… where the hell are they we paid for it, goddamit, my last hopes are in that next patch.

We’ve talked about this

I happened to work for a company that had this exact shit happen. Years of people coming in and out, no comments on code, people who didn’t even speak english. Not dissing out non-english speakers, but when english is the common language among everybody in the office is very hard to communicate with one who does not speak it. I literally had to use hand signs and gestures to communicate with this dude, because somehow, we just had to make it work, or else.

For fucks sake I had barely any coding experience in college and I literally had to learn python, c#, c++, java just so I could help out the developers… me… the “IT guy”… All while being severely underpaid.

I kinda get what’s happening here. But at the same time, is just pointless now. I’d rather have them come clean and admit they are way over their heads with this game. Focus on day one bugs, on heavily documented exploits. You know them. You know how they are done, and if you don’t, I’ll happily share, if they ask. But the won’t. The lack of interest in fixing shit that’s been going on is evident. Not since day one have they addressed bugs that have been properly documented. That have been properly submitted. They ask for video proof, we post it, and nothing gets done. All we get in every update is more cosmetics nobody really cares for and MORE BUGS! Literally, is not just that they don’t fix old stuff, is that they break new stuff.

Starting the game from the ground up is just a nightmare, specially when I know they reused code from other games, aside from using default game content from Unreal Engine to begin with.

To this day I still ask why the hell this game uses “cooked” content like an emulator does. That’s also probably one of the reasons why this game runs like shit even on high end hardware. Why DX12 is still not implemented even though the game, aside from a few glitches, supports it? Is 2022. DX12 was released 7 years ago. SEVEN!!! FIVE YEARS BEFORE THIS GAME WAS EVEN RELEASED!!!

I really want to understand, I really want to help, but with the current feedback, I highly doubt they are even interested in our help.

Why submit stuff to an email that will only get buried and ignored? I still remember the countless crash logs I sent them when the game was originally released. I had crashes literally every few matches. It was a nightmare. I tried to help. .pak file would get corrupted every few hours even after installing in several different hard drives. at some point it stopped happening. They probably fixed the problem on accident.

I’m curious on Friday, was a lot of Illfonic’s blunders in that game as well, like horrible fixes, no communications, etc? I know the lawsuit stopped production completely, but before that, was it the same as PHG?

I’m at a loss for words. I mean, seriously. How. Do. You. Fuck up. This. Bad.

this is ridiculous! y’all better fix the quality of mr black’s face & wolf’s entire texture, make wolf like who he looks like in the movie exactly with the blue devil eyes when he cloaks.

as for other feedbacks:

some suggestions tho for future updates:

  1. Provide the option to change the devil’s eye’s colors when activating cloak, the option to change the plasma caster sound, the option to change the decloaking sound, & the option to change the sound of the predator’s roar.
  2. Shuriken. Double shurikens & double shoulder plasma casters would be cool.
  3. City & Winter maps. Not sure if snows would affect cloaking tho as the snow would rest on a cloaked predator.
  4. Increase the number of fireteam members to 6 or 8.
  5. Human skins of the rest of the predator 1987 cast members. also skin of fugitive predator & kagero predator. would be cool if it’s possible to change not just the mask, but also the armor of the predator in customization, like samurai armor on the hunter class or berserker class.
  6. Increase the katana slash speed. The katana is too slow. No samurai hit at such speed.

I just imagined Dutch saying in suffered voice: ““God damn it””

I agree making the customization more in depth woukd keep a lot more people interested and invested, also making the yautja more unique. What’s the Kagero Pred? I agree with most of your other points

the kagero predator is unofficial, not from the movie. it’s a sculpture i saw from IG that’s super cool. it means shadow wolf in japanese

damnit. atleast you could have PUT THE DAMN NET ON IS MODEL??? x’)))))))))))))

Yes 😪

8 FT’s against one pred? AHHHH HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

With 8 FT even potatos like me will probably win against someone like Samhain or Dan3800 with ease

that’s why they gotta stop buffing the humans & nerfting the yautja

They haven’t buffed the FT in a pretty long time now, they’ve only been buffing pred.

Doesn’t matter at this point. Buffs have been so insane on both sides that matches that were supposed to last at least ten minutes do not last longer than 3. It’s either Pred wiping FT in one or two engagements or FT melting Pred in one or two engagements

We haven’t had a new dlc or weapon since Isabelle dlc. I believe that was June last year. All we got was a shitty mask in 9 months. Forget about any ft buffs… i don’t think they give a shit about the players. In fact the bugs kept just multiplying after that update in June last year. Each update after that has made the game worse.

Ik I’m just stating a fact. I stopped expecting actual balance changes back when FM was released and could do 1/2 sec revives, instead of adjusting that they glossed over it. Several instances of the same shit over and over again without learning from their mistakes while simultaneously claiming to listen to community feedback.

Adding night maps should be considered a buff to FT. Its already like 60/40 in favor to FT on day mode, on night its like 80/20 to FT, its just a fuck the Predator mode. FT can spot the Predator better, Predator has a harder time spotting the FT. Also removing the radio location until its actually available to use, major FT buff they did there. The actual good ft players are still having the time of their lives on how easy the game is.

The preds best buffs would be adding specs for Predator and increasing the number of disks to 3 but that only works with low ping, even then FT still have the advantage. Buffing some melee weapons like Axe from high risk low reward to high risk high reward if lucky is a meh buff. Didn’t chance anything on the winrate vs good premades.

Well to be fair most Pred weapons damage have been buffed on top of specializations. Only FT weapons that have been buffed were pistols (and one was nerfed) and 1st smg (not like FT needs any more firepower anyway)
