That comment is full of shit! I’ve tried traps, sneak and settle in and moved around like a game of chess. Doesn’t make a difference! Landed in the middle of the team cloaked with combistick and still takes 5 to 6 hits to take one guy down and by then they have destroyed me with gun fire! Team is way buffed! Spotted while staying perfectly still and got wasted! Lots of things they need to do to balance them equally!
Predators won't read this
Dont mind him look around the forum hes the pred master dontcha know.
True that!!!
I don’t disagree that either side needs more changes but they do need to make predators other weapons more viable games with anything but combi and net gun are rare because they are afraid of being parried and combi still kills on average in 4 hits depending on perks everyone that I have played with randoms against is 9 times out of 10 a berserker when hunter is actually the better class he’s just not as spongey in fights they need to balance classes and weapons along with the parry mechanic and maybe give the combi a crippling effect while reducing the damage it does a support should be able to use the lmg and nade launcher as a primary and maybe lock their secondary as either mini gun or shotgun something a support unit in the military would actually use making weapons class specific would change a lot of things for the better
Yeah its easy to win if you run certain weapons and fight a bad fireteam. To say its to easy to win makes me think you only have fought new players to the game every time. If you fight an ok fire team you will most likely get wrecked or they will escape. I am a skilled predator and i get annoyed when my work turns to nothing after they get reinforcements. Especially after the time i spent hunting from afar not being a typical combistick predator being thats to easy to win with. Unless you find someone who knows how to parry and knife kill you.
Man, if everything as you write is true, then why is it so easy for me to play for FireTeam than to play for a Predator? This is a clear imbalance. Of course, there are people in the world who can play well anything, but there are few such players. I spent a lot of time in various PvP genres, for example BATTLEFRONT 2017 where there are different classes, such as the Jedi or Sith, capable of killing you with just one blow and an ordinary soldier who will need to do a lot to at least somehow damage these characters, making it a whole group, and alone it is completely impossible. I do not call myself a super gamer, but on this basis, I believe that I have enough experience to see that in this game there is a big trouble with balance and the Predator is not able to give equal resistance to FireTeam. Playing as a Predator, I always feel like a cornered prey. Of course, it’s easier to play against PS4 games or PC noobs or children, but if a team with experience in shooters plays against you, then you will lose 80-90%. Playing for the Predator at the moment is hardcore.
100% agree, your words is real truth, i don’t understand people trying to adapt to the wrong things, instead of correcting them. There is a bad balance in this game and it needs to be fixed, not to adapt to it and to repeat something like “you have to study better.”
Trial weekend game is not the same game like this release. For example, stamina was more longer
You’re not wrong. I believe the build we played during trial was 4-6 weeks old. But overall values weren’t changed all that much. They deff made some tweaks that they detailed in a blog post and here as well I believe.
I’d played in trial version during all trial time and I 100% sure, that play as Predator in Trial Version was more easy than in this release.
Yeah, I’m constantly surprised by how poorly the Predator is used even at high levels. Even most of the game critics were whining that the Predator couldn’t just wipe a team. How would that be fun? Think about the first film. The Pred used tactics and engaged only when the target was alone or distracted. Yeah, he’s tough enough to kick the poop outta Arnold, but a bullet is a bullet. He’s still meat. He’s not invincible. I win almost every game with the Pred because I play smart and pick my moments…or if you want you can just Zerker+Combistick…but that’s not really fun and it’ll probably get nerfed soon anyway.
One of the reasons people are divided on this game is because the experience is entirely dependent on who you play with. The AI sucks so if the Pred is bad, it’s boring. If the Pred is good and your team is bad it’s frustrating. But when you get a great team and a great Pred? Magic baby. It’s a blast.
I think the key to a good Predator player is acting like a Predator. Take your time and enjoying toying with the fireteam. I haven’t been impressed with the dudes who just rush in, even when they wipe my team. It’s the Hunter’s man. The guys that play cat and mouse that I really respect. Just when you think you’re gonna pull it off they strike and it’s game over.
The game does need some balance adjustments. And it will get them. But the core of what’s here is great if you know how to play.
Gosh this post made what points I’ve been attempting to make but said in a better tone I guess.
I completely agree. The pred didnt need to be buffed. Really only the beserker needed a slight nerf. I melt teams on the daily.
