Predator Killer sub-boss

#1

While The Predator isn’t the best film out there it did leave us with an interesting usage of its characters. The Predator Killer seen at the end of the movie (I presume in the hands of Stargazer) was jokingly referred to as Quinn McKenna’s new suit. So what if we used that not for a special character but as a sort of sub-boss on-top of the Predator player?

Players would drop in and say in the middle of the mission the fireteam or Predator is attacked by Quinn? Predator and Fireteam when encountering him would be forced to repel or outrun him to complete objectives.

As a build I’m thinking along the lines of the Berserker in terms of Health and stamina but with quicker energy regeneration. Quinn was a sniper so his shoulder cannons would be used more to snipe players. The melee is when players get in close or he’s fairly close to the players. If Fox wont allow him to be killed then once defeated he runs off and cloaks before he despawns.

As an added benefit of those encountering him and delivering the final blow you could reward the Fireteam with extra experience or currency. Or with the Predator say unlocking a cosmetic like a skin pattern representing the Assassin or an armor style based on the Predator Killer.

Or we never acknowledge this film exists or was made or thought up or even hinted at creating. Let it die my friend. Instead let’s add some stuff from and of the other 3

Dude I totally respect your opinion, and it is an interesting idea, but personally i never want to lay eyes on that “Predator Killer” abomination ever again. It was a truly dreadful way of ending the film. Even the co- writer Fred Dekker made the comment a few months after the film’s release that “I also hate the super-suit ending!” I really wish they’d managed to convince Arnold to do the cameo as was originally intended.
I agree with DisturbedLlama that there are many other interesting ideas to add instead, but this one should be left in the past.

that armor was so cringy… it’s like some 10y/o got out the crayons after eating an entire box of unicorn lucky charms.

I did zero fact checks on this. But my comment on that suit would be to not allow someone who has far too much affinity for cartoons to design Predator universe things.

How about no?
Listen - The Predator is not only a bad predator movie, its actually the worst movie of 2018. Also its a stright in the face insult to Stan Winston, Kevin Peter Hall and anybody involved in creating the lore - let that peace of shit die.
Have you listen thrugh all the OWLF recordings? This game has stargezer in, yes, but is doing a fair bit to forget the bulshit we saw in The Predator. If you are not sure waht I’m reffering to whit the tapes - this bit when he talks about analizing City Hunter DNA. Don’t want to spoil it for everone so I will shut up now.

Yeah, I really hope they’re careful with what the pull from the lore. Some of it is really cartoonish. The Predator was terrible. The opening sequence was good, the ship flying through the tear in space-time and the shootout at the beginning…pretty much everything after the first 5 minutes sucked.

That was one of my biggest grips with the 2010 AVP, which was flawed but fun. They included too many design and story elements from the AVP movies. Which to me felt like Saturday morning cartoons and not Alien or Predator films. That and the “execution trains” in multiplayer. Please be careful Illfonic.

They’re definitely still heavily referencing the climate change earth invasion so don’t get your hopes up too high

“We have come for the warrioress, Greta! Her DNA will make us unbeatable throughout the galaxy!!”

Actually, if your are referring to the OWLF recordings, he dose mention the increase in detecting predators hunting on Earth, but at the same time (SPOILER AHEAD!!!) clearly states that he is not sure is it because there’s more of them coming here, or simply we are able to detect more quz we kind of know what to look for now. Also, in a different recording it is said that (MASSIVE SPOILER AHEAD!!!) City hunter’s DNA was analyzed after the LA incident, and that let us to determine it was a 300 years old teenager and there is no mentioning of it containing traces of foreign DNA, let alone human or any other. Now that to me is a attempt to restore the lore and put it back on track. Don’t know if it will work, but after listening to all recordings, all that remains from the shit-show known as The Predator is stargazer taking over OWLF.

Seriously, after watching the beggining of the movie I honestly thought it will be as good as the first two movies… and as you said, 5-10 mins later I just wanted to leave the cinema ;-(

He says they wouldn’t be prepared for a full scale invasion and ended on that note but I appreciate your optimism.
