Reiterating that parry is retarded

#22

The parry is needed to keep melee fair. Without it, preds would just melee because you cannot stop them at all, so unless you want to buff the FT weapons so shooting them as they stab you is more effective, or nerf the melee weapons so the FT can stand a chance against a melee assault, parry is going to stay. Should it stun the predator? No. Maybe the wristblades, but the melee weapons shouldn’t. And the melee only weapons shouldn’t even break their combo.

On the topic of knives, however, they do need to reduce their pred damage a bit more still. There should be no scenario where you can knife down the Pred from full health in less hits than it takes the wristblades to do the same.

And speaking of spotting, it needs to stay, but each spot should have a 2 second cooldown to avoid spamming until you guess right, but remove the limitation when spotting supplies and V.

And the FT gets no traps, ever. I don’t care if their claymores or vine net. No traps. They need to do the mission, not find an advantageous spot and stay there to run out the clock and claim victory from not dying. Or the predator just falls for their trap ambush and they kill and secure the body. There needs to be zero incentives to not do the mission, because that’s a big part of the balance.

Traps like this

and This

I think setting traps for predator would be cool like how dutch did but that would be a lot of new animations they would have to add along with the designs for the traps and collision and other such things and I think a straight up predator showdown would be a cool game mode to have

and again i disagree if the only way you can think to blance a BLADE is to Block it and stun him then thats pretty uncreative way of thinking. you shouldnt be abble to fight where ever when ever with whom ever, in the movies they have sent highly Trained Military troops to fight the thing and this thing one of them killed all of them effortlessly

the only ones that lived lived in one of two ways.

out smarting it

or useing its tech

witch makes sense how do you kill a bad ass? with the bad asses weapons makes sense

u should honestly have a durability meter for the dang butter knife

Setting abuse and glitches are a different conversation. Parry is a game mechanic intended by devs. Calling parrying an exploit is so ridiculous I can’t even take you seriously

#28

Partying is REALLY DUMB. FIRETEAM ARE DOUCHRBAGS

#29

lol everytime I beat a full pc team who’s been trash talking and chasing me all game the salt is REAL. Music to my ancient ears >;)

yea that could be a soft nerf to it sure but i dont wanna nerf things that just leaves a bad taste in peoples mouths i would rather add something that gives more content and replay to the game and remove something thats effortlessly giving a team a leg up in a fight for no reason other thing it would look cool.

as i said befor i would prefer to trade something thats not movie related for something that is.

traps can do the same job if done right.

And honestly we don’t know what their knives are made of I mean look at Dutch’s knife it’s a blade from a predator gauntlet and the tapes that we collect say they are constantly reverse engineering the predator tech from each body they collect which hints at some bad ass future content

#32

tbh technically it should only be 1 parry and after that your knife is broken

#33

No its not their both in the game and both are used for the same reasons to help you win games, both take no effort on the users part. so no its the same thing in almost every single way. the only diffence being they’ll patch an exploit but they’ll hold there dicks on a knife. rolls eyes

Parrying is for balance. No parry is not the answer because as people have said, the predator advantage at that point is astronomic.

So instead of just saying remove parry, come up with a solution. One solution would be to change bullet damage drop off by increasing damage at closer ranges. But wait, that would make shottys OP. Instead of doing that why don’t we add a knife that can mitigate a swing or two? That sounds fair

#35

the gap between a Predator and a human is supposed to be astronomic… that’s why there’s 4 of u lol ;)

This is why I’m not taking you seriously anymore. “Glitches and mechanics are the same” ass motherfucker

#37

I mean depending how far they want to go they could use the predator tech to make a plasma caster rifle the possibilities are literally endless

#38

I mean if your gonna keep parry at least make it something other than a tiny lil butter knife lol…

#39

A “crystalline compound harder than diamonds” is what the Predator 2 poster from the 80’s said about the wrist blades.

#40

I mean I’d love that to be so… I just fear for how they’ll mess it up liek how they did to the dumb disk

#41

sweet mamba another ancient that knows our tech and our material superiority :)
