Reiterating that parry is retarded

Like really super stupid retarding.

Like Statler and Waldorf mockable levels of retardation.

Most matches humans are fucking coming at me with knives WTF retarded stupid.

NOT cool. NOT smart. NOT even average intelligence.

Retard.

Parry stunning the pred is beyond stupid.

Also, pred spotting is stupid. Almost retarded.

If you find yourself in a situation that you’re getting parry stunned… that’s your stupid not theirs.

While the idea of parrying an alien metal forged weapon with a crummy stainless steel knife, used by a muscular humanoid weighing in at 200lbs more than most humans, and with a 2/3 ft height advantage… Seems silly.

It is easy to counter. If someone parries, literally do anything except keep meleeing. You can net, slam, trap, caster, bow, spear throw, bob and weave, flank with hops. Or use Elder sword.

Here is how the guys in the 87 film did it, with custom combat knives.

In all fairness though, parrying is needed for game balance otherwise Predator could just walk up to every FT and melee them down.

Is it unrealistic and seem a bit like a gimmick? Sure, but FT needs something to deter Predator from just jumping in and doing that.

needed? i disagree. it makes the predator feel less powerful then he should instead how about having Traps too have to out smart the predator instead giving options to win a 1 on 1 maybe design the Tree and Vine traps in the movies?

Okay so when the Predator charges you with a staff, you want to be able to booby trap really quick? Not sure I follow.

In fairness from my experience, the FT who tries to run/dodge seems to live longer than the one who tries to parry/melee with the Predator.

If you’re complaining about parrying, you’re playing wrong. If we’re using the movies as evidence, name one time the predator melees someone while other people are there. If you are 1v1, even with parry, you have the upper hand. Sounds like you’re playing out of position though.

Also, what are Predator weapons made from? Why do we assume steel is inadequate?

right thats why you out smart him and do it ahead of time the predator doesnt spawn on you. pretty unreasonable for you to ask the predator to deal with being stun when he trys to Melee but the fire team gets no down sides for it. plus i would rather trade something thats not in the sport of the movie for something that is.

eh not really you can be good at the game and still not like something thats in it so i disagree with that.

thats like me saying " if your complaining about Exploiting the system settings to see the predator while cloaked your playing wrong" see why that doesnt work? you can not like something and still be good at the game

If you’re good you find a way to play around what you don’t like. If you’re good you’d understand why parry is a balancing mechanic. Someone throwing around the word retarded like that just sounds upset that things aren’t his way

ok then by that logic Exploiting the game is fine, you can play around setting abuse or when a predator does the slot glitch theres ways to play around it so its fineeeeee you just need to be better.

happy?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ yep

So if I’m understanding this correctly you want the Predator to just jump down on you and swipe you three to four times without any way to fight back then?

Okay so instead of hitting a parry button, you hit the booby button?

Or do you need to set the booby traps up ahead of time and try to lute the Predator into the traps when be comes for you?

I think either way you do agree that something is needed. You just do not agree with the current implementation. Is that a fair statement?

no of course not but also of course you would know this if you have been reading

i would prefer you to work together plan out his moves ahead of time force him to hunt you on your terms where you hold control.

you know like dutch did

and if your confused let me send you a like video
