Way different thing. You’re waiting to get back in the game. If FT reinforces your back in the action. For Pred it’s all or nothing. When your down your down, no more chances.
I don’t consider it cheap leaving the game when it’s over for you. That’s not rage quiting that’s just game over
Rage quit solution.

No exp…wow…what a punishment for someone at Level 150.
No money…wow…really harsh punishment for anyone playing Pred.
Yes. That’s just what i said.

After reinforcements are used up FT now spawn as Guerillas and continue to spawn until all are dead or they kill the predator or the predator escapes in his ship.
Could not care less how you try to justify it. If 1 side is forced to stay in the game to the very end or they get punished, then the other side needs the same type of functionality. It does not take long for the FT to defend the body, its far quicker then potentially waiting up to 10 minutes in the game for nothing (they can refuse to reinforce, as an example).
They really need ti do something for quitters but since there are no ranked modes or sort of conpetitive modes they have no reason to do that. And I think they will never do anything for this problem.
See the point is though, if the Predator leaves after settling the bomb it literally has no effect on the game.
If the FT leaves before reinforcements or before being claimed then it affects the other players negatively. Same with Predator rage quiting before being downed. So that if anything is what should be discouraged and punished.
Why would you force someone to sit there needlessly, unable to play, just to watch guys tbag and trash talk, or in best case scenario mow down waves of brain dead paper AI? What’s the point?
If my team has no intent in reviving me I have literally no effect on the game. If I have no revives, I have no effect on the game. If I KNOW for a fact that the guy left has no chance of reviving the team (pred is literally running circles around him) I have no effect on the game if I leave. I can find you MORE possibilities as to how “I would have no effect on the game”. Hell, how many times I could sit 3-4 minutes there hopping for a revive only for the guy to die before being able to?
Now if the FT is forced to SIT THERE FOR NOTHING trough multiple possibilities, then it stands to reason the predator should also be forced to do so.
Oh and BTW, do you know how many times I found predators that tbag, jumps around and roars to the point I die from blood loss? YEAH! If I have to do that, predator is not getting any free passes.
The point is, If I am forced to sit there, he should be forced to sit there. Its as simple as that. No free passes because this forum is filled with predator mains.
PS. I am completely against punishing anyone for leaving but if we go there, punish everybody!
These are all true. Could be an aggressive pred that doesn’t want to let the FT reinforce, FT member thinks he can solo the pred, any one of a hundred reasons why you’ll sit waiting for respawb, but you can still respawn.
On top of that, FT loses, queues up and is back in a match in under 2 minutes, pred is minimal 6 minutes staring at a loading screen. If the games done the games done, I don’t think there should be a penalty for leaving at that point. FT can exit when the last member is downed, or when they’re downed after respawn, pred can exit after the bomb is set and there should be no consequences. That’s just my opinion. Any other time or reason (aside obvious technical issues) you’re negatively affecting game play for 4 other people.

Thing is you can sit for nothing (as FT) of upwards of 10 minutes or get punished. As I said, if I end up being forced to do that, then I do think the predator can be forced to sit just a bit for the defense part.
As for the preds QUE… Yeah, don’t care. The FT que is that way ->. Of course pred que is bad when so many want to play pred AND when FT has been given nothing but nerfs for some patches now as pred keep getting new classes and new weapons. Now you want to add even MORE detriments to the FT and FT alone…
Well yeah it’s a Predator game, if people wanted FPS they’re playing COD right now I think. I know where the FT queue is, I find myself there the majority because of the limited amount of time I have to play I’d rather not waste staring at a loading screen.
I get what you’re saying i just disagree entirely. If you’re killed and waiting for reinforcements at least you get to watch the rest of your team fight the Predator, that’s entertaining to a degree. If your downed as the Predator you get to watch FT mow down boring basic AI that doesn’t present a challenge, I’ve watched paint dry and been more stimulated.
Its boring to see people play like 90% of times. If I am downed I watch something on YT on my second monitor. Also, imagine how boring it is for the FT themselves to just kill those mindless NPCs.
Even the fact that they leave quickly before people can even tbag the predator as predators could tbag all they want and its NOT fair. Why should only 1 side get to mock the other? Predators can roar over your body, tb you and all shit BUT if they get a free pass to leave as they die… Guess who don’t get to do that. Why do you think many people leave the moment they see the pred claims them? To avoid the very thing you want to protect the predators from.
Don’t have to. As I said I mostly play FT due to limited time now a days.
I want to “protect predators” from queue times…so that you don’t lose a large portion of your player base that like me, didn’t buy the game to stare at cool loading screens. Also the people who leave when they’ve been claimed once and don’t wait for the reinforcements are the problem. That strait up ruins the game for everyone and there is no excuse for it.
I’ve been on both sides of the game when reinforcements are hit and nobody spawns in and it sucks for everyone playing still. There needs to be a sense of good play and cooperation for the game to work as intended and those players take that away by quiting. Maybe the game isn’t really their cup of tea after all?
If you want to protect preds from que times you do it differently. Again, don’t bring the que into this, its irrelevant. You also seem to not have a problem if the FT people stare at the screen as they wait it out.
If you hit that reinforcement and nobody shows up… Then lol @ the genius who reinforced and did not look to see if the killed players are even in the game.
Cooperation and sense of good play is not generated trough forcing people to do things they don’t want to in their entertainment. You think if a FT leaves then he looks at 20 mins of waiting before he can que again, he is going to think “yeah, better not do that again”? Its probably going to be “fuck this, better play something else”.
I read that as gorillas…I wouldn’t be against that as long as we can throw our own poop around.
Some aren’t rage quits though, for example my partner doesn’t have the best internet, when we’re in a party and go to quick play, if her internet crashes it doesn’t just kick her out but it kicks me out as well which is really annoying because there have been some matches where I’ve genuinely had fun against a Predator but it kicks me out because of her internet crashing.
Clearly I don’t. I even called it entertaining to a degree.
Honestly the way this is going it sounds like you just want to get rid of reinforcements as a whole almost. Would that work better you think?
Not being an ass just genuinely asking because from all your statements it seems like that’s the part you hate the most is if you get claimed and have to wait to maybe get back in the game or not. It’s the recurring focal point for you.
Nop, don’t want to get rid of reinforcements. I even had arguments with people that wanted that.
My issue is with only one side getting the short end of the stick, AGAIN! My only issue is if you punish people for leaving BEFORE THE GAME IS DONE! Then you punish both sides if they leave BEFORE THE GAME IS DONE with no arbitrary reasons as to what anybody find as “the end of the game” for HIM. When the score rolls, then its the end of the game. Don’t want to sit for the defense part? Don’t get killed as the predator.
Well then as I said earlier. I wholeheartedly and respectfully disagree with your perspective.
Just curious, one last thing. Did you miss the part where I said FT could leave after being claimed after reinforcements? That’s not an appropriate compromise?
