predator has so much issues

#1

-the predator is less sneaky than the fire team and he’s super loud (why the hunter/scout are as noisy as the zerk ?)
-most pred weapon are useless (actualy spear/netgun/bow/plasma canon are the only decent weapon all the other sucks way to much)
-there is so many weird perks , (as an exemple ,why there is one 1pts perks to climb faster tree and an other to move faster on the trees ? They should be one 3pts perk )
-melee is not viable against any decent fire team they will never split (fire don’t need to split at all =/ ) and they will parry you as soon you try something
-ranged play style is not realy effective against decent fire team ,because the predator is not sneeky at all when he’s cloaked .You will get spotted before you find a good angle of attack . against decent fire team you will get shoot up as soon you reveal your position (or when they deduce it) . Predator still loose the attrition war
-it’s way to ez to disarm the bomb .They should change how it work . You can charge the activation of the bomb . the longer you keep the action button pressed the more symbol there will be.
-there is still some point i have probably forgot …

actualy i feel like there is 2 choose : -fire team is good you will not fight to kill them all but to maybe get 1 of them or even worst just to survive
-they are bad and you will win

Lol OK dude. Enjoy your salt pile

against good fire team you must pray for them do to a mistake if they don’t you will just loose a lot of time and you will loose
if you try something because you don’t want to wait an eternity (which may not happen) you will probably die

#7

For the record, I don’t entirely disagree with you. But I’ve found getting better at range has helped tremendously 🤷‍♀️

#8

it seems that I have touched the sensitive point. I didn’t mean to offend you
sry if you take it badly but i watched your vidéo and they were clearly not what I consider good
there is already enough player who posts their “play” on all the forums they see
can we just talk like civilised people

Good premade fireteam (pc) will win most of times but if you are a good Predator you can kill even three of them before to die. Predator is waaaay much harder than fireteam to play and have a lot of bugs, but is not so bad like you explain. It’s hard to balance the game for all players unfortunatly.

80% ranged play style and 20% melee (= when someone split a little bit and you can fall discreetly next to him) is probable the most viable gamplay but if they are decent you will still struggle because they still have much more supply than you

well thats not very good advice if noone plays predator you wouldnt have a game, come too think of it didnt Dead by daylight tryed what you tryed just now? calling peoples bluff? because i remember them doing something along the same lines " just go play Civ 5" and i remember the player count to that game went form like 30k active players a day to like 2k for months intell they pretty much beg’d everyone to come back.

so i mean not saying your gonna be begging but, you really wanna drop the player count this early for a game?

any fire team who just listen to ping and with responsiveness can easily beat the predator without even needing to be in voice communication

#13

True absolutly. But being good as ft is way much easier than being at least decent with predator. So you have more ft good players that actually play the game compared to predators. Good predator is in disadvantage against good fireteam but anything that takes a decent/avarage fireteam (premade too) into consideration can be defeated by the good Predator. Very few people are good with pred despite the fact that all want to play him.

#14

True thats the point, ft have infinite sustain and reinforcements are absolutly unfair. I think more than the weapon nerf they need a reinforcements nerf and spotted as wel

#15

I’m honestly starting to enjoy awesome FT players more as they make me a better Predator and if I win it’s that much sweeter.

#16

in an asymmetric game the power role is always the single player
the 4 other have the number in there favor
actualy fire team is the power role . They don’t even are anxious ,do not feel any doubt they will win any way if they know what they are doing
on other hand the predator is scared of the fire team …
when play predator I often stress ,while I play commando I feel like taking a walk of health

#17

The thing about now is hard to balance because the people that complain about the fireteam premade are the same number (or even less) than people that complain about berserker and combi

#18

they just need to play there game to know that rushing zerk are clearly not a prb (just 1 or 2 parry and he’s dead)
meanwhile as a predator there is not a lot of thing you can do when you are against good fire team (lets not talk about when you face 4 support with machinegun , 4 sneaky scout who spot you and shoot way before you see them and then chase you will you are in second wind)

#19

What is the point of playing the scout that when the hunter does the same thing better?
scout is mean for a sneaky range gameplay and but as every other pred he’s super noisy and visible …
moreover the hunter has praticly the same stam and the same speed but he has way more hp and he can carry much more material …
there is hidden stat thats sure (like the amount of energie per class) but those kind of little number wont change anything for him .

def say, the problem with the predator on foot he sounds like a charging tyrannosaurus in Jurassic Park chasing Jeff Goldblum like a mad man on a Black Friday sale. so the only way to be silent is to climb the trees but another problem with that lies there is, the cloak is terrible and when predkouring the branches look like damn spring boards at your local public swimming pool, easy pickings with snipers and ranged assault rifles.

I think the fireteams is actually well balanced, ppl hate the butterknife parry and want it removed. I say keep the parry but when you parry it breaks their knife and if they parry again using whatever weapon they currently using gets damaged to.

either the predator needs to have better cloaking or have those crater sounding induced footsteps removed, the predator alone makes enough vocal sounds to be given away. FT missions need to be longer and more complex, there has to be parts in the mission that requires the FT to split up into 2 groups to complete an objective, so 2 members are on team alpha and 2 members are on team beta and they need to go follow their respective objectives… or another remedy is all pred classes need more energy and stop the bow from being torque charged and vibrating, why? why is your bow vibrating like a dildo but yet you can parry a fully pledged predators strength of attack with a butter knife with no repercussions. you should have your bow torqued as long as you like without the charge allow it to be torqued for a few seconds makes no damn sense.

other then the poor mechanics of the weapon tab and no kind bindings for the prred for each weapon why nor?, and the boar glitch, they either spawn in on part of the map like a herd rather instead of being scattered across the map or you to kill them and they vanish or you kill them their corpse rattles like some dragonballz induced on tcp character and flings across the map or disappears.

Scout needs a full 2 bar health stat not 1 and a bit.

  1. better missions that require FT to split, and missions take longer
  2. better energy and cloaking for the pred, or remove the hard thumping footsteps (its a stealth game snd the pred announces himself like your uncle bob at an xmas party.
  3. no charging effect for bow but still required to torque it for better strength
  4. more challenging ai for FT seeming they have large source of medical supplies
    5.plasma cannon should have automatic lock system but removes 90% energy at full charge
    6.performing wristlbade melee’s should not be breaking you out of cloak
    7 better god damn boars spread across the maps.
    8.charging a predator with your also means one stab only and you lost the knife or reduce its damaged I have completely John rambo’d a full charging pred just knife slashes an parrying as a predator can’t handle when your strafe vs back paddling.

but this is my 2 cents guys don’t hate me I’m just speaking my 2cents to help even the odds in general, being FT your gonna win 80% of the time.

Scout has to be my most fav class, he has the best energy mechanic and recharges faster then a Duracell battery bunny can put a smile on its face.

love to hear your thoughts please excuse my long post brothers and sisters.
