Been playing with crossplay off on PS4 majority of the time, but did initially encounter some PC bullshit in the first month of release.
As a PS4 Player Recon/Scout I’ve sniped Predators from mad far away while cloaked and even downed one from over 500m.
If I can see a claimed Pred that far away others can too.
I agree with still being cloaked with Melee, better combos for all weapons yes, buff the warclub. Adjust cloaks shimmer I can agree with that, ballistics damage idk for sure but Predator needs more stealth cabilities, making the clicking echo would help as well. More fluent Predkour would fix the issue imo.
Maybe it works like this on ps4, I don’t know. If the Predator is moving you have to drag your cross air into his position constantly. It’s called aim. And it’s the reason why ps4 players are way worse than pc players in this game. Because they have bad aim. How in the world a thing that seems so difficult and badly done by ps4 players is considered unskilled for you? Your opinion is the opposite of 99,9% of the player base of ANY videogames. No blame, just saying.
The predator click is every 15 seconds, it just clicks as soon as you cloak, then it goes to 15 second intervals.
It’s not because we have bad aim, it’s just controllers work very differently to optical mouse input (even an old school mouse with a ball would perform better than a PS4 controller). You’re constantly fighting against the sticks feature to auto centre, whereas with a mouse there’s no resistance on your movement.
So all of a sudden all ps4 players have bad aim.
Jesus christ.
I’m sure I can find ppl who have the same accuracy rate with those on pc. If were going to measure this, that’s how we would do it.
I push myself way harder than most people.
I’ve played a bunch of different genres.
And out of all of the types of games I’ve played, guess which one is the easiest to pick up and play?
Fps.
Avoid damage. Look at target and let your weapon destroy them from a safe spot.
In some fps games, hide and wait til you heal.
No thinking, no plotting.
Simple easy shit.
No, I’m a competent Predator and majority of matches wipe FT, even had forum members compliment me saying they recalled my PSN and given GGs here.
But that doesn’t mean I’m perfect, have had shitty matches too and got wrecked early on in a match.
I’ve put a lot of time into game, reached max lvl both times in days.
I would have wiped the remaining single FT member if there would’ve been a single piggie on the map.
Watching this game play reminds me that the Katana needs a better aiming mechanism. If your camera is even slightly angled wrong you swing at air missing the target completely.
Of course , I’m not blaming ps4 players for having a bad aim. But it is what it is. You can’t say fps are easy. Single players are easy, sport games are easy. Fps and fighting games are the hardest to pick up and master, from a Pc perspective
Honestly having gyro aim support would fix this issue imo, or the ability to use mouse and keybaord on the game, like what Modern Warfare did.
I understand 👍🏼
I’m on PS4, and this is the first FPS I’ve ever played. Coming from a strictly 3rd person understanding of games, it was very hard to adapt to. But I picked it up quickly, and I find it easy enough except for precise aiming scenarios like sniping a moving target, fast/unpredictable moving targets. It would be a hell of a lot easier if I wasn’t fighting with my controller for the most part, and the sensitivity settings don’t really offer that much of a break.
I recently have been tweaking my control options which I thought I was happy with since initial adjustments first week the game was released.
I have very look sensitivity but about 50% ADS for more finesse while scoping something.
Predators are strong enough you just need to outthink the FT.
@aaronBLUEeyes I get them to think I’m in the trees then blast em from the ground when they’re looking up.
Fuck no lol, might as well start nerfing the bow then for ammo. Bad Preds cause ft nerfs for no reason.
Bow is fine, it’s the most skilled weapon in the game. It should never be nerf.
Oh ok. I wasn’t sure what the timer was. It would be nice if they changed it to 20 at least.
Honestly 30 imo.
Absolutely.
vs PS4 FT’s, Pred too strong.
vs PC FT’s, Pred too weak.
How are you meant to balance this perfectly? (without specifically providing buffs to PS4 FT’s)
Played a bunch of Predator games over the weekend where I was PC Pred vs PS4 FT’s.
It’s just crazy easy, and many times they were complaining “how easy the Pred is”.
No doubt there was a skill issue in some of the games, and just regular saltiness in others.
But the fact remains, for every buff you give the Pred, you make the lives of PS4 FT’s harder. (argueably the larger portion of the player base? - Unconfirmed)
I would be extremely interested to see the actual statistics of Win/Loss rates based on particular platform composition.
I would hope that Illfonic are recording these stats in the backend.
Because you can’t be randomly ‘buffing Pred’, if Predators are winning 90% of matches against PS4 FT’s, but only 50% against PC FT’s.
Pc version should require a controller to play.
