slam...

#182

i dunno i feel that if they made it where if you hit the predator mid air as hes charging the attack it stuns him for like 3 times longer then he wouldve if he hit the ground with out getting shot. then get rid of the leap with in a leap exploit to avoid the stun. and we are golden. maybe even after add something like the slam it self has a cool down of say 5-8 seconds so that way you can use it to flush people out of a room but you cant spam it anymore but you also still have your other weapons if you run the slam spam build.

iā€™d see that as itā€™d be pretty fair.

yea but its super soft form of pay to win there because one month latter its not pay to win anymore but for that month yea i agree it is. but then that begs the question isnt the game already pay to win? because if you bought the deluxe you got 48 xp boost witch means early access to the most bs gear in game soooooooo

Iā€™ve opted for a proper challege moving over to ft in this shit sandwich game yes but doesnt mean there arent thousands of issues just im not having my Ā£34.99 piece of unbalanced shit game staying in my libuary. illfonic best pull their finger out their asses and fix it!

#185

couldnt agree more.

#186

again why? because your crying about it? what are you a boomer? you think the world is gonna change it self for you because you cry about it the most?

#187

Their entire response to any counter play is, ā€œDonā€™t go into a building then.ā€ Like ok. You want this to be what it is meant to be the Fireteam more or less surviving the Predator but if they are good they can kill it and such. That is fine. But then you want to force them to constantly be out in the open where not only they can get surrounded by AI but easily sniped and then bitch when they are robbed of any real defensive potential and instead go on the offense and relentlessly hunt the Predator. Itā€™s like all they want is a straight up brawl only as long as THEY can safely get away to heal.

The only times I have roof slammed is when I missed. Either the marker showed me landing on top of the guy on the side of the building or in the next to the guy in the doorway but it misjudges and hits the roof or when I do just straight up miss. I have never intentionally done this and when it results in serious damage to the Fireteam I immediately disengage and let them recover. Because I am not gonna take a win because I missed an attack and should have paid for it with my ass.

He still claims FT is the challenge. He must just be bad at shooting.

#189

And I have only seen a few Predators use them while playing Fireteam. So this is kind of a vocal minority.

Then again I only play Fireteam to farm money and I do that like once or twice a week.

#190

Yea id be more on board if it had more of a CD beside the overloading on energy , and yea like u mention with ppl abusing it with cooling syncs perk on top of it its kinda rough

#191

hey man its one thing to go into a building because thats your objective but its another thing when you wanna camp and hide out there holding the match agaisnt the predator. for the latter i say fuck yea! dont go into buildings with the intent of forcing the predator to go where you want him to at least we have a tool to play it our way instead of the fire teams way i dont see that as wrong. you shouldnt be allowed to force the predator to go or do something simply because you went somewhere your self THATS where i disagree with you and defend the slam.

#192

No he will be a skin just like the 87 predator was.

#193

yea but i dont think the perks them selfs should get a nerf because of this give it a cool down and a risk of getting stun for a crazy long time that would make predators not use this out side but only when you hide out in a building and i would see that as fair and blanced

#194

Yea thats kinda how I feel ā€¦cuz ive had ppl say to me - " I mean what else are u suppose to do when they bunch up in a building?" and im just like really?

For one u can re position get line of sight and start lighting them up with plasma cannon. Even if I dont have a direct line of sight on them depending which buildings theyre inside U can aim at the ceiling top from floor level and hit them with splash dmg. Use traps outside of the doorway for when they eventually are forced to come out unless they want to fail extraction. Depending on your load out can use Smart Disk. Plus the match is in your favor of winning anyway as Pred if they ALL bunch up in a building not trying to progress anyway so its like my point is its not like youre in desperate need of slamming them in that situation anyway. Run off find some boars even to put in ur back pocket to let them think its safe to come back out again even, theyll have to come out eventually.

No no I dont think the perk should get a nerf by any means I just meant its adding more fire to a questionable move thats able to be used in a critical way that speeds it up also.

#196

Yea if a FT can interupt a Pred mid leap/slam then they should be rewarded for itā€¦Itā€™d have to be while theyre actually in the mid slam animation tho cuz just straight up leaping it self shouldnt be penalized I feel tho

#197

kinda have to shoot this one down splash damage of the fully charged plasma cannon is 65 hit points ( ive tested it with a buddy) so unless your landing direct shots your not dealing good DPA. or DPS for that matter.

yea only they dont and they would rather wait out the match and ā€œliveā€ because the timmer ran out.

witch is hard to use and once it goes into the building it will get stuck unless you fly it out of the building and into the air witch will cut your fly time down so you have less time to react. and if it gets stuck shoot it and break it and then heal now its not an option anymore.

again nope i dont think you understand what we mean when we mean when we say their camping out i mean like thats their new home now their never coming out.

#198

Exactly what I have been fucking saying. But instead of them addressing that they just blanket assert none of that works and all this shit. Because they never have a response to that except just outright deny and reject it. I literally broke this shit down before in excruciating detail and their responses, namely from the individual currently responding to you was, basically just: ā€œStop going in buildings if you donā€™t like it. It is unfair because I canā€™t run in there and kill them upfront.ā€ Basically admitting they just wanna walk up on any Fireteam and bulldoze them, no contest.

And I mostly play Scout, main even, and camping has never been an issue for me like that.

#199

right only when you go for the slam witch is already easy to see when its happening as of the blue glow on your hand.

#200

No i get what ur sayign trust meā€¦Ive had countless games where they do this tho right. Like even on Derailed when theyre in one of the factories that u cant even roof slam on yet theyre hiding inside itā€¦Ill literally just run in with my net gun and and net 2 right off the batā€¦run to another and swipe at them a couple times and run out(yes i take some shots) but that fuels them to engage and chase me at that point and I literally just run out the doorway and instantly turn around with my plasma out charging and sure enough I almost always have someone pursuing who eats it to the faceā€¦I was just fgiving examples, obviously smart disk is tough to control yes, and the plasma ceiling strat is still good for applying sustainable dmg to make them have to do something atleast , yea its not a 1 shot but itll add up and theyre gonna run out of heals

#201

Some situations like I mentioned on Derailed u cant even roof slam yet theyre gonna hide inside so U gotta try something, Ill just take the risk of taking some dmg while pumping out dmg to them at the same time also to get thigns moving
