Reiterating that parry is retarded

#182

And a single sniper bullet does 200 damage. And a clip from an SMG does I wanna say 700.

I dont want parry gone, but its ridiculously easy to do it.

#183

Well FT has to be facing the Predator at all times in order to parry and if you have a Predator that is juking and running around in circles to meelee u from the side or from behind of course it takes skill to counter that

#184

Dude. You look at them and wildly keep pressing the button. Raise the sensitivity, and boom, easy parry.

Granted sf 3rd strike parrying is easy, but at least requires timing. In here it doesnā€™t.

I must repeat I dont want parry gone, but I understand the hate for it.

#185

Other games have no bearing on my complaint with this game. Also my issue is not with parry as a game mechanic. So,

WAY TO MISS THE POINT, YOU RETARDED ASSHOLE

#186

Then it should ruin your immersion when you see 4 dutches, or pred takes a .50 cal round to the back of the head, or humans tank a spear or disc being thrown through their chest, or it takes 3 hits to kill a downed person.

Dumb complaint. Itā€™s a video game get over it.

#187

I didnā€™t know you were making your argument with that in mind, i was talking about default settings with no handicaps.

If you raise sensitivity then yes there is no skill anymore

#188

Yeah. Predators are not and never have been tanks. (Except the trash movie in 2018) it takes 5 bolt action sniper hits to kill a hunter. It takes 26 hits point blank from the strongest assault rifle. You can fully heal two or three times and most matches there are 3 or 4 pigs.

Yeah, maybe you wonā€™t kill everyone on a decent fireteam, but, if you die as the predator, thatā€™s totally on you.

Honestly though, like I said, Iā€™m not trying to get rid of parrying. I understand why it needs to be here. But I also get the hate for it. I think it requiring timing might help, instead of wildly pressing the melee button, or pulling out the knife and swinging wildly.

But like a lot of stuff, its extremely hard to balance in this game.

#190

Of course fair enough. Iā€™m a Predator main and i wouldnā€™t mind if it stayed or if it were to be taken out either tbh

My response is just cause everyone loves to bring up slam damage but ft can do way more, in less time, and safer.

I feel with some of the guns ft damage is broken, simply because at a multiplied rate its fkn hella broken amounts of damage.

#192

You and I both lol. Iā€™ve learned to get past parrying. I just pretend its dark souls xD

#193

Multiple people shooting at the pred brings the time to kill down to MERE SECONDS faster than pred can react out of his slow little animations so its hilarious when people pretend FT is at any kind of disadvantage ever.

Worst case scenario they failed to melt the pred in 4 seconds as a coordinated team because they cant aim and he got away with 25% hp to go heal and now fireteams healed and blowing through objectives.

I truly have never experienced that nor have any idea what youā€™re talking about.

#195

Slam damage or getting ripped apart by ft?
Cause if your on ps4 I can show you what I mean .

#196

FT is at a positioning disadvantage. Mobility. Actually the only advantage they have is sticking together

But honestly this conversation is exhaustive. If you donā€™t like the parry, use the combistick

#197

I also think that parrying is not what some gamers are complaining about but rather the stun animation that is the result of it.

In most games when u parry u donā€™t take chip damage itā€™s an advanced form of blocking letā€™s say.

But in this game if you parry the Predator the punish is relentless cuz the stun animation is long enough for surrounding FT members to melt your face off

Not talking about parrying when it actually eats into your damage output. Its actually better to just stand there and tank combistick hits while you hose the pred down in seconds with an LMG for being in melee range ever.

And no, pred has limited angles of attack and anyone with headphones can figure out what angle hes coming from. Then its just building, ground, or around a corner.
Cant leap around vs a fireteam that can aim because you will get sniped out of the air by fucking machine guns lol because theres no bullet drop you just click on the hitbox.

#199

Lol

#200

Honestly thatā€™s my position too. I rarely parry bc if Iā€™m parrying Iā€™m not shooting. And at point blank you can really pop a lot of headdies into the predator

#201

Actually I dont even need too. Just watch the vid on ft gun damage and times that by 4. Thatā€™s broken as hell.
