Private chat=Cheating FT

#1

I get people like to talk to their friends without the other team hearing them, but when FT constantly uses private chat such as discord or PS party to talk strategy so the predator cant hear them it feels super cheap. As the predator, your whole deal is watching and stalking FT and hearing them make their plans, so when they are clearly using private chat it undermines the whole experience. I understand that there isn’t a way to stop people from doing it, but it be nice if we could actually use the report button to discourage these a holes.
Also, kinda off topic, I play on PS4 and the group I keep seeing do this use power ranger as their avatars, has anyone else played them?

You wouldn’t be able to hear them speaking anyway as they would use earpiece radios

I didn’t know you can choose servers in P:HG… last time I’ve checked you just join a random game, with no control of where the server is located. What if you will come across me and my team? In game or discord – we always chat in Polish - you will report us quz you can’t understand what we are planning?

Does the Predators in the movies even understand human language? i thought the Predators were just mimicking the words the humans says to try and lure, confuse them etc.

Okay but
you would still have to talk into the ear piece
also the predator has super advance tech that he uses to go through space, but he cant hear people talk.
Sure

What’s the difference between not hearing and not understanding the chat? Puts you in the exact same position… position from which you simply must

If the FT is openly talking in-game and discussing their “tactics” they’re straight up clowns who have no fucking clue what they’re doing because they’re Hot Mic’ing and 1, not only giving away their location because of it but 2 REVEALING THEIR PLANS.

We don’t get on Mic and say to the Fireteam “Yeah we’re gonna do this & this, I have these weapons, gonna try and jump you here.” Because that’s fucking stupid. What even is this kind of complaint? What FTs are you fighting where you think Hot Mic’ing their plans is acceptable and makes them good sport?

also whats the difference if we just DONT TALK? many games will go by where my mates and i just intuitively follow eachother and complete the objective, no discussion necessary.

except if in different language you can tell when someone gets excited or mad.

here’s the deal… I think this is the only online game who allows crossteam in-game voice chat. Like literally veteran gamers get confused when the predator player speaks and they can hear it, because is not normal.

So my guess is… you don’t play many video games ;)

Maybe you don’t know how in ear radios work

The whole point of them is to be able to communicate without being heard

You’re hunting… The whole point is to figure out their plans and to end them… Lmao This guy expecting a fucking to-do list from the enemy team so he can actually win a game.

Not to mention they yell when they reload or put mud on or see a trap

Regardless of party chat

And the sound blips are always there when using thermal vision

If i hear someone screaming, english or not, when I jump down i think its safe to say they saw me.
