Should FT be able to spot the Pred when 100% cloaked? (Spamming Spot button)

#34

No, no.
When I say that i think that they care, I dont mean the aesthetics,
but the constant features they add.

They are constantly changing the balance of the game, and in that sense, yeah it is quite different from what it used to be when it launched.
I dont mean different in a better or a worse way, thats not the point and its up to each person to judge.

All I am saying is that this proves that they care about the experience the game offers, but again I dont understand why they dont resolve some long lived bugs.

#35

Well good for you.
That’s what I am saying you should do as well.
Force me to move.
Not spam the spot button and get a lucky hit.

Balance isnt a word i would say is accurate in their balancing 😁 . Yeah they added specialisations for fireteam and then for pred months later , but even they are broken . Preds impenetrable was counter by hipfire , it just didn’t count against hipfire .

They adjusted the cloak eventually but then added a handful of items to fireteam that render the cloak useless etc . I dont think its really an easy dynamic to balance either , being honest . Its how much bugs and features are pretty much broken . They added one perk for pred until they added specialisations and alot of basic functions were broken . I dont know about now , but on pc and console you could shoot your plasma caster backwards 😁 two simple buttons on console and you could shoot behind you uncharged and you wouldn’t turn around .

As they should , the final game was literally the beta , you could just unlock items that were locked in the beta . It was pretty much identical number of weapons and perks at launch that were in the beta

#38

Again… I am not saying that they are doing a good job at balancing. i am saying that all these constant changes and additions prove that they haven’t abandoned the game to its fate. So I dont get why they dont take the time to fix bugs too. Thats all.

I’m not attacking you or your opinion BTW mate , I just went down the rabbit hole with alot of things . I got what you meant .

If people enjoy the game ? Good on them , I just don’t see why pointing clear facts out is discouraged . Best case scenario? It improves certain aspects , worse case scenario? People don’t agree and call me an asshole 😁

I have facts on my side and numbers .

I get that. No worries!

Spot just shouldn’t be a thing. I couldn’t believe it when I saw it in this game. Total garbage mechanic

Also, I believe if you fire and luckily hit the Predator, you can spot him right away.

#44

But in my life i have strict policy of not having any smurf accounts that i use to abuse stuff in life.

Playing on highest/max graphics quality settings.
I tested it out a while ago and the better your graphics quality in this game, the longer you can see the pred when his cloak changes from running around to completely invisible because he stands still.
On low quality he will turn completely invisible immediately, while on cinematic he will become more like a slowly fading out shadow.

I agree, they shouldn’t be able to spot. As a matter of fact, most of the time a leaf on a bush gets spotted and not the pred ;)

Now with that said. Half the time I will shoot a pred that isn’t spotted, specially when we are chasing.

Yes, spotting is annoying, just learn not to panic. Unless you are facing pc death squads, you’ll be fine.

No you’re definitely back tracking now. You said they are getting you cause they are spamming the button. And I said no they can literally pin point you just from clicking. So we agree spotting is dumb, but to your other point. That you are strangely attempting to say you weren’t making, even tho it’s literally in writing, is what I’m telling you is not totally true. Again, I don’t think it should work that way either. But people can literally play pin point you with Audio

#52

Quick question because I dont think you get what I am telling you.
Are you telling me that when I get spotted its because I falsely believe I am 100% cloaked but in reality I am not?

#53

This implies that I get spotted because something made me panic and move, did I understand you correctly?
But I am not saying that spotting should be removed from the game because its “annoying”.
What I am saying is that I don’t like being spotted while being 100% still and quiet and not charging beams or arrows or anything, just because someone saw the branch move and decided to randomly press spot in my general location.
I am ok with having eye markers around me to tell to the rest of the FT that I am on that tree brunch, so they know where to shoot and force me to move.
After I have moved I don’t mind getting “spotted”, its only fair.
