questions to be asked during live streat (poll corrected)

#1

About 20 questions have been compiled to ask illfonic during next week’s live stream. Please vote which one’s interest you the most (10 votes maximum) and i will ask them in the order reflecting popularity. I plan to address Illfonic before asking the questions in such a way,

“Hello Illfonic. Thank you for this play session and an opportunity to ask questions about the game. The forum community has selected 10-15 questions of interest. I would like to start asking questions in numerical order every minute and repeating the question thereafter if no answer was provided, in case the question was missed by you due to the running chat. Please provide an answer of some sort or a ‘no comment’ tag. Please confirm that you agree with this request. Thank you.”

Please comment on this approach. Maybe it would be better to avoid it since its not a formal Q&A session and just start asking questions from the getgo. Also, please comment on my phrasing of the questions; maybe it can be improved.

    1. What is your opinion about predator specializations proposed by the P:HG community?
    1. Is there a possibility of having a some kind of statistical/achievement tracker for player progress? (wins, stealth kills, successful exfils, etc.)
    1. Is Lt. Mike Harrigan a possible DLC character?
    1. Will the predator eventually be getting some tech seen in AVP? (shuriken, laser grid, blue disintegrating liquid, etc)
    1. Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?
    1. Please comment on how balance between fireteam and predator is measured.
    1. Will daily challenges be relegated to Hunt mode only?
    1. What is your opinion about making private matches customizable? (no perks, friendly fire, etc)
    1. Will field locker ever incorporate newer items?
    1. Will we receive newer field lockers or ways to buy cosmetics with veritanium?
    1. Are there any plans for a single-player mode?
    1. Will we be able to customize predator equipment such as plasma caster and wrist blades?
    1. Anything you can share about when the new mode will be available?
    1. Do you plan to add more specific voice lines for each predator class?
    1. Are there any plans for a city map?
    1. Is there a possibility to have a community beta server for updates so bugs, glitches, etc, can be found by the community prior to release?
    1. Why isn’t there a full ps4 pro patch for 4k/60 HDR support as well as sp5 patch?
    1. Is it possible to get an all out stability update for all devices (notebook, desktop, pc, and ps4/ps5)?
    1. Is it possible to incorporate a dynamic resolution scaler into P:HG for more stable frame rates?

First time someone actually used the moderator option on the polls.I see, we are voting on what is to be asked.
Here are my suggestions for the current comments, as some are kind of vague or one word answered.

Will field lockers ever incorporate newer items?
Me: Should continue by saying: …“that are not purchasable in the customization menu (making obtaining the item a jackpot situation like the trophies but for the FT-these are still is impossible to get so im not sure if were in any better shape by adding more…maybe changing the ratios of chances of getting them? I don’t know.).”

Are there any plans for the citymap?
Me: Wow, this is very specific. Maybe choose, will we see more movie specific inspired content for maps or continue with the mythos that is PHG until we see more single player content.

2nd last one:
Is it possible to get an all out stability update for all devices?
Stability update? Do you mean that some notebooks do not get the updates it deserves? or that this is a warning that updates do not affect all platforms listed?
Maybe add a purpose for asking this as there assuming people are playing based on the minimum requirements there shouldnt be a problem between these platforms.

Last one in the list:
Do you mean dynamically changing certain areas of the render to lower resolutions or framerates when not in complete focus? I think you should be more specific as this terminology is specific to games that have been optimized through focused areas of view, eg. Assassins Creed or Spiderman pS4. IMHO, sure it could use framerate updates for PS4 but for those who meet minimum requirements on PC its not that pronounced.

Thanks for the input @MassImpact124 . i will adjust the first two suggestions. the last two were submitted @Aihrui. Hopefully he’ll see this message and put some more context into the questions.

The last two question where meant to help improve the games feel for all devices. My Gaming Notebook has minimal requirements for the game but still will lag occasionally because the FPS drop shortly and turn back up and that more than once.

The other question/suggestions was made by a buddy of mine, who is a frequent gamer. He watched me play and meant that a dynamic resolution scaler would help to improve the game for the players on all devices.

Hope this helps? If not I can try to provide more info with the help of my buddy.

It would be messed up if they ignored all your other questions then they answered that one at the end

In all honesty though, wouldn’t get your hopes up that they will answer any of our questions and if they do it’ll be kept a vague response as to not commit to anything.

#12

Can you differentiate this FPS drop and the dramatic pop lagging of mutiplayer game server response times (ei.ping and jitter problems)? If the FPS is dropping due to hardware innefficiencies, then there is something wrong with what you are using on that specific device. I don’t know, i think this has more to do with the lack of support on that device.

The dynamic resolution scaling, again this isn’t something that comes out of the box for developers. I’m sure if there is anything experimental, they would either need to develop it themselves, or they need to comment on that technology and review what is available on the engine they are using.

These are good and valid questions!

#13

im not expecting anything. just a test run.

#14

Maybe they will, question I really want answered is why are certain items like predlocks, masks, and helmets gender locked? When will all predlocks, masks, and helmets should be able to be equipped to either gender in the game?

How in the actual hell is the question about a Quality Assurance Server for Players at 27% percent only? I get it, Predator Specializations are all the rage rn, but there’s more to it than that.

Also, I really wish that gets made. Sure QA works (Big Head Mode was a doozy), but if you bring along the Community who tells you about these bugs in the first place, we wouldn’t be having these problems so often.

Well, it could be to the notebook just having 8 RAM. But I’m not sure. I emailed the place where I bought the notebook how much it would cost to get the RAM higher and awaiting an answer.

My buddy said it would be possible to add with the unreal engine used for epic games. Since he saw it himself once used in a different game.

i’ll likely get to it anyway. i’m sure that some of the questions will either not get answered at all or will just get a generic nod.

Also Ask for Fourm Intergation with the game, since that is actually the only source for Patch Notes and Illfonic doesn’t seem willing to put those Patch Notes in Update Notes as well.
