That and just how much damage it does in general but meh, what gets me is when fireteams get to the end and I down and kill one before he escapes using what I am given and they toxically rage.
predators are forced to play beserk

Devs should definitely make more objectives for FT to do before extraction. More time for the hunts too cause often times I run scout. Yeah, he’s fun with hit and run- really wearing down FT. But too long to down people and they call the chopper or run out the time. By then, you’ve exhausted your equipment and you’re desperate for picks lol… I really want to be a scout pred though smh…
Actually I think instead of more objectives, there just needs to be a cool down between objectives. As of right now it’s objective, objective, objective, exfil. Just a couple minutes down time between objectives would do wonders lengthening the gameplay loop. This extra time would allow the fireteam to look around for viradium, and the Predator time to stalk and plan the next ambush. Or just have a nice long firefight before the next objective pops.

I agree i always find myself going back to beserker with a combi, I try something else and I think to myself “This is kinda shit” nothing else is as effective especially scout he’s just way too weak imo.
U have to use plasma gun effiently its your primary tool. Its a goddamn rocket launcher and fully charged no perks is 125 dmg . If you get a knock down you charge up and kill the fireteam member. You dont have to claim everykill. You can do this on scout with down range/ bio mask / bullet len perk. They wont land a nade on u and a sniper just wont hit you… if your fast enough… fuck the bow fully charged 70 dmg max hs only 94. Stick with bear traps combi stuck … i like the disk for chopper cause u can throw hit 2 if them do a leap and get 2 knock downs or u combistick one and throw it on the second for an insta down. Stay away from berserker due to big ass hit box
This is spot on. That is the tactic I think devs had in mind.
For the first encounters, blast at the FT from afar to foce them to use some of that healing juice. When they starts gettig conservative, thats when the Wrisblade comes out.
Make the FT uneasy, jumpy, show your self, run away, shoot at em from diffrent angles.
Playing a Predator as if this was Call of Duty is not the way to do it.

I think the hunter is ok, i had early success with him when leveling up. But the scout is utterly useless. Sure its energy regen is nice and speed fine…
But i literally just got out-run by recons as scout… Wasnt even second wind, and the bow full charged doesnt 1 shot with a head shot which it totally should… WITH the ranged damage perk too.
Why gimp yourself with no health, when you can play Berserk and not have to worry about being 4 tapped by snipers. All youve gotta do is manage your energy a little better, and there ya go, way more health and durability.
The only people who do well with scout pred, are those who plasma spam LOS dodge, and vs blind FT’s. If you’re vs a decent FT with scout pred, you quickly become the hunted. Since you cant even bring traps if you want to be able to heal yourself.
Exactly
Couldnt disagree more with this. Scout is OP in the right hands, unlimited vision mode, small hitbox and fast. If you move around and attack from new angles, and DONT use trees, they are insane.
Its my best class, hands down.
My opinion.

Yeah i never use trees, but ive also never lost a game as Berzerk :P Wheras every time as scout, they dont seem to have an issue hitting me full sprint or mid-leap.
Oh they hit me, but i never let them put me into second wind, that means i am done. It seems the game has some kinda “damage reduction” based on range, because it seems the FT does very little dmg over long distances except for the Snipers, they are my worst enemies if they are good.
I dont like melee in this game, not only does the weapons feel lackluster, but they also lock the pred into animations and i hate how that feels. He is almost standing still while the FT can move, its just asking to get shot.

Yea, the guns have “effective range” in their stats. I can add a pic if you want.
If the light pred could carry traps and decoys, as well as heals, id be more into it. Those for me work well to help with the melee aspect. Splits them up a bit and such.
I just feel unless you go full plasma spam, the range damage just tickles the fireteam who often carry medkits etc, and any who move serpentine (ones who know what they’re doing) you aint gonna hit them with disc or bow from long range.
oooh ok so they do, i never really play the FT so, just “felt” like they couldnt really damage me alot from a distance except for snipers.
Good to know.

Disc and Bow to me a 100% useless, unless you just wanna have fun and experiment. Ive tried to use them and see what they can do, but im not impressed.
Shoulder Cannon “spamming” isnt really what i do, i only use fully charged shots and try to make sure i hit them, not charging the cannon is almost wasted energy, does no damage almost.
I just found this tactic to be incredibly fun for ME, they cant catch me and i basicly just bother them. Dont even care if they escape, im not in a tournament here, just having fun with a game.
The 2XL (Revolver) Pistol’s effective range is 3/4 bars (4 bars being maximum range for a weapons , like sniper rifle) . But it has this big of a range due to the big caliber rounds it uses. High powered but low fire rate and low ammo (6 loaded).
If any player thinks he/she have skill for playing mashing like a gorilla on button because this game is garbage, good luck with that… ;)
I always abandon the match when zerker enter like a retard and leave the team on the ground (no exp for gorillas, sorry).
I´ll do it VERY often btw (95% of the matches) If the devs wants to ban me, it´s ok.
I accept refound and bye bye :)
PS: In these last 2 hours of play I have seen how I am not the only one. 9 out of 10 games with the retardzerker in the game end quickly because people leave, I love them xD
you are on to something when it comes to the loadout.
Healing for instace is a mandatory thing for both parties, so that should be enabeld without spending points. If you want more healing, that should be a spender.
okay bye. Hope you get your refund
