Predators cry matches are too short

Predators cry that they can’t find the FT team, and when they find it, the FT team is already calling the helicopter
But at the same time they themselves stupid pick the Berserkers and kill the whole team within one minute.

Here’s an example of a match: a team appeared at the other end of the map from the goal. We walked to the goal for about 2-3 minutes. We completed a couple of stages of the task, spending another 2-3+ minutes on it. Berserk came running stomping like an elephant, just used his stupid SUPERMAN ELECTRO LANDING to the center of the camp and left-clicked all four Players for one minute.

The Predator had about 70% health when he killed last FT member.
How do you like that balance?

And I am not writing to create another toxic topic.
I don’t like that matches end too quickly. It doesn’t matter who wins or loses.

I think it’s stupid that FT tasks are completed within five minutes. In addition, I think it’s stupid that a Predator can easily absorb a huge amount of damage point-blank, and alternately knocking four Players.

What to do with these problems - I will not offer. All the same, the developers will either score on it or do everything their own way. And I’m not paid the salary of a game designer in the illfonic.

Do not misunderstand me. Playing for FT I want to feel like I’m being hunted by something unknown to me, study me, etc. Also playing as a Predator I want to study FT Players, plan a hunt, think strategically, etc.

But in the reality, I get that some invisible elephant comes running to my camp (where four Players are standing nearby + bots are running), completely ignoring all the damage from four Players with one click it knocks each FT Player alternately for a minute. And your broken parry with knives do not help here (No, I don’t want this mechanics buff. I don’t like it at all from the point of view of the lore or from the point of view of game design)

What kind of nonsense?

you say what kind of nonsense. just like the kind of nonsense when high up in the trees being spam spotted with the d pad?? … lol. i dont zerg my way in like that. i might add. btw. ive not been playing since the que times are so shit. and the plasma caster got nerfed where a fully charged shot wont down someone “because logic” the other weapons are not all that viable some not all from what i read so you know?? … all the weapons should have viability and they dont

I am writing this as TF Mainer. I also feel sorry for the plasma caster. I believe that you need to return the damage back. But, if the developers are worried about the streight of the plasma caster, then they could increase the time to gain maximum charge or reduce the radius of splash damage or speed of plasma bullet etc. Don’t touch damage.

Regarding spotting, I also agree.

yeah i wanted to play pred. but i played the hell out of ft. so i know being zerged is annoying. because happened to me by a few preds. some i managed to fend off but not that often … lol. i 2 v1ed once was good that. parried shot his ass to hell made him run off. well if you look at that weapon in the movie and i know people say dont quote the movie as a source. but il do it anyway. that thing literally tears limbs off or holes in people. or holes into things or blows shit up …

nah increasing the charge time is dumb takes long enough as it is now if spotting went maybe idk. i still dont think it needs any more of a charge time on it because you just get riddled with bullets. imagine trying to charge that with a timer more than their is and the fireteam down you. being in the trees is literally useless unless the ft are potatoes and dont look up or know what they are doing lol …

while being shot in the trees. as pathetic or as sad it is. being in the trees is not the way forward or to be because you get spam spotted or thats where people always look. so what do they do being the denominator? preds stay on the ground and rush in like a bull in a china shop … lol. now if the devs made the other weapons viable and spotting to be gone. maybe less people would just be a zerg.

Well, that is true. But there are 2 things i must admit:

  1. You really need to parry such idiotic predators. This is the only way to counter it.
    2.Blinding superjump must be eliminate in that game. It is really stupid ability, that is works only for zerker.
    BTW I am predator main i guess. Most of my matches are for predator, but 40% im playing as FT, so i understood long ago what we need to do. And playing zerker i literally NEVER use this ability, cuz it is wiping your stamina and energy out at all, so if there is a full squad FT able to parry u - u really screwed up.
    So is suggest just to terminate this ability, it is really useless. Or maybe just make it not so strong, IDK.

Except that i don’t even plsy Berserker… 🤷🏻‍♂️

You dont really have a lot of tools for finding fireteam. Me and a lot of other Preds (@Sharpy_47 not included) usually go to the middle of the map, turn on Pred vision, and listen for gun fire…

A dumb team of runny shooty bang bang types will get found pretty fast, but a smart team that stays muddy and rolls low-n-slow, can get that chopper call started without ever seeing a pred…

I’m not really sure why you and the OP is being so hostile anyway. Dont you want more play time?
If yuns hate fighting the pred so much, go play CoD… no Preds in CoD… 🤷🏻‍♂️

You see predator mains only want to win endlessly. On the other hand no one wants to play FT losing endlessly. Its not fun and good luck finding full lobbies.

im predator main. Ofc i want to win, but not unfair by using some balance mistakes. I just hope all of my words will be heard by devs, i already suggest a LOT of FT buffs and balance improvements.

WHAT?! 😂🤣😂

  1. No, thats not even true. I win FT all the time and i’m not even a “Leet pro-gamer”…

  2. Pred mains wouldnt be getting an “Unfair advantage” by having a longer game clock because IT COUNTS AS A LOSS FOR FIRETEAM IF THE CLOCK RUNS OUT!!

  3. This has nothing to do with giving preds an “unfair advantage”(because your guns turn into pumpkins after the 10 minute mark? 🤷🏻‍♂️) and everything to do with it taking 30-40 minutes to get into a game that most of the time ends in less than 10…

  4. Whos being the babies now?..

Now at thats all said, i’m going to read through the comments and laugh at the ones that are from people claiming to be from pred mains, but are very clearly from FT players…

(The above thoughts and opinions are only that of the person that typed the(Duh), and in no way reflect the views od @Sharpy_47… )

90% of my FT matches are wins. 10% other - just cuz of the teammates that got no discipline just to do what we need to do. Im literally can eliminate any predator on my own, i guess, just need to make one(JUST FOKIN ONE) parrying and after that my shotgun do all the work.
On the other hand, i know almost everything how to counter such tactic with predator so it is so easy now to eliminate fireteams that are tryingg to parry you or something. For now i feel something is wrong with both sides. It is so easy to win now both as FT and predator. It needs some rework now.
Also it is so hard to play against well coordinated team, but so interesting! There are not many of such teams unfortunately.
And so the FT - it is interesting to play against well prepared predator, but most of them trying to zerg me with combistick and gettin shot.

losing endlessly hahaha. thats a good joke. stick with your team dont run off or be on your own. well whats a predator want to do lose? obviously they want to win its the primary reason and objective to kill or try to win. or actually win. why else would you play just to spin around on the spot and do nothing? if you think like that maybe this game isnt for you. idk what to tell you tbh or say

Do people just not know how to parry? I’m genuinely confused because a lot of people seem to fall victim to melee predator when the parry was put into the game to counter quick melee kills.

Is this post for real??? LMFAO. I kill the entire fireteam the first 2 minutes lol. If a predator can’t find the fireteam in a long 15 minutes, then he is NOOB and BAD and shouldn’t play as him. 15 minutes is way too much for predator to find and kill the team lol, and yeah they can rush and finish missions quickly but a skilled predator would destroy them. Even at the exfil point!!

that doesnt mean ANYTHING needs to change it means that peaople need to practice and get better.

There will always be winners and losers. you cant balance it so every round is a draw and everyones happy. its impossible. right now the game feels really good. go against a shit fireteam and wipe them, as it should be. go against a great fireteam and struggle to get them before they get out… as it should be… same the other way. its exactly as it should be

Ffs. FT. ITS FT. FIRE TEAM. GOD DAMN IT.

#18

Lmao didn’t say FT loses endlessly. I only play FT and win more than I lose. Read the post next time. Pred mains want to win endlessly which would cause FT to lose endlessly…which would be no fun

#19

Y’all aren’t understanding the post… pred mains want to have the predator to the point they can dominate giving the FT little chance, how is that going to be fun for a FT player? You are only thinking of the one side.
You can’t be this awesome badass predator like the comics/movies going against FT players nd expect people to have fun. If thats what you want go play predator against bots/AI

The reason predator mains say that matches are too short, and predator is still ass right now, is that playing as predator doesnt play like a predator game.

The stealth is ass, The sound is way to revealing, no time can be taken, its just forcing play after play, and that is primarily the reason why this game is bursting at the seams. its why the predator classes other than zerker got buffed, because the only real playstyle you can have as pred is highly aggressive.

My guide outlines how to fix all of these problems really, and how to make playing predator feel like predator again. its not hard, but its alot of work and the game really does need it.
