Predator is week

The survivors can kill the predator too easily, their guns need to be nerft. If you do a long claim on a marine and a marine is behind you they can put you into second wind in 10 seconds. I play as a barrier, the berserker is not strong in health. The berserker should be as tough as stage boss in dark souls.

Lol. Don’t do a long kill while other soldiers are around. That’s a rookie mistake.

Seriously I don’t think he is UP… its the fire team that is seriously (hilariously) OP. Think about this, what we have right now is spotting and highlighting the cloaked predator(prey), bringing dead back to life, healing in 2 sec to full health (while running), plasma caster not being able to penetrate foliage and the ultimate knife of destruction that can magically stop wristblades and combistick attacks. If you want to buff up Predator to Fire team level, so he is actually a threat to them, you will end up with a superman vs 4 supermen sort of a game – pointless. Fire team needs to be nerft…a lot.

then matches will last like a minute if they buff predator. Just jump down and spam away if they buff pred and nerf ft.

I have to agree… im only level 17 predator but the fireteam wins way to easily against a technology advanced predator even if i dont have much unlocked… He is just weak in everything… the shoulder mounted plasma gun is worthless except against ai who stand still… shoot at a player and miss by 2 inches and he’s not damaged enough to go for cover, no no, he just stands there in defiance and riddles you in bullits… lol Also, the entire fire team spams shotguns even with perks to limit bullit damage they weaken me within seconds to the point i can’t jump , can’t defend myself with blades or anything, all i can do is run to try to heal before i bleed out and they just run after me and kill me even if i have lessened blood splatter perk…
yes , when you get on the ground and in close quarters its very dangerous for the predator as it seems the fire team can out move him. they cant out run but they can just dodge attacks like neo from the matrix…also the healing takes way to long compared to the fire team when as soon as they stab themselves with the epipen they can start shooting again… the predator has to wait and wait and wait for the animation to complete …

To me, either the shotguns need nerfed a bit or boost the predators health points…and make it so when he injects the healing gun the health auto fills and can let the player have control again like the fireteam epipens do…

Just keep playing. Keep getting better. You’ll see the game even out. It has for me. I was STRUGGLING all Thurs night and all day Friday. Towards the end of Sat night as I got more experience and unlocked more equipment that started to change and I haven’t lost since. I’m also noticing more defeats when I play as fire team. People are getting better at using the Predator. I say this almost every post, but I’m not saying some changes here and there don’t need to be made, but all of you expecting some major balance changes, will be disappointed, because I’m pretty sure they won’t be coming.

I don’t now I am LVL 50 but the AI is also too strong. A few AI grunts should not be able to take out a predator

I live this game don’t get me wrong, but if no balance changes are made then illfonic are the biggest idiots out there. I mean like seriously it was apparent since launch that the predator need to be Bufft or the Fireteam nerfed

That’s just not enough time to tell, making major balance changes after such little time would be foolish. I mean Iv seen a dramatic shift just over this weekend alone. As Predator I went from getting absolutely wrecked to not losing at all. And as a FT member, it went from dominating the Predator to now it’s a damn chore to stop him. Hell if I can do it, most can. Save for a few titles here and there I’m as average a player as you’ll come by.

It’s possible they’ll make a few quick fixes, but I doubt we’ll see any major changes as I have a feeling their backend W/L data probably reflects what the trial did which was around a 50/50 split. We’ll see.

How exactly did that happened… ???

They just need to make the plasma caster and disc auto lock on, if you’re a FT player then you just gotta run for some cover to dodge it when you hear it coming… Predator has always had auto lock for those two items in other games and in the movies
