So unbalanced and one sided for pred

#42

Believe me, we all want the numerous bugs fixed, but that shouldn’t factor into adjusting the core game play experience.

I don’t even like how predators die alot in this game, but many of them are simply pushing too hard. Go heal up or kill some hogs, and if you’ve already been second winded, wait 4 minutes before making another hard push. It’s easy to not be killed as the predator, the occasionally difficult part is managing health against teams that punish every attack.

What really pushes my buttons are things that are unable to be countered, such as observant or indestructible traps. Abilities like those basically make pig in shit and sixth sense worthless.

That’s why parry had to be a part of the game, because melee would have no counter play otherwise.

Poor bear traps. They get so much hate.
They just want to help you.

Bear traps and smart disc I’ve found is a fun combination, let themselves get trapped for essentially free damage. Then plasma caster and they’re down.

To bad scout has the lowest melee dps

I rarely actively use them in my matches.
I mainly use my nets and traps to torture people.

Net more than my traps as a torture device.
But it all depends on the last players.

I have a lot matches where i will stop all agression if i see the last ft guy is cool, after I’ve let them reinforced.
Simply cause me bring max lv, I dont need to win.

So if I see they have more interest in the mission than fighting me, il go let them in case they’re trying to level up or do challenges.

Get good! Ft is slaughtering the pred with pre-made teams. The only time the pred wins is against players not playing together. Or if he’s exceptional.

#49

So what you’re saying is he is OP, except against pre-mades?

If the predator is standing still. I never use HK, hammerhead is far better in my opinion. The only thing I would give is forcing them to use low health classes that get 1 shoot with the spear. Also, the HK does not help you parry in any way. My point is how much they could parry when they got attacked in melee, not the WIN/LOSS ratio.

#51

Predator doesn’t have to stand still melee has a set path based on the weapon the AK is the fastest killing short range weapon right now parrying is unnecessary with it equipped assuming you have good aim

Honestly I’m surprised you responded

And my point is because of the unnecessary limitations on the fireteam the tournament can’t be used in any real argument regarding the games current balance as without it’s arbitrary limitations the ft has no problem dealing with anything the predator can do assuming a certain skill ceiling is reached

First paragraph - bullshit! Go right ahead and test it. Go 1v1 a pred, have him leap to you and elder sword you as you try to gun him down with the AK. A good portion of your health will melt even before you turn around. Then move to spear, have him spear your face and then finish you off with his wrist blades and see how well you do. If you think you can have a pred on you in MELEE and you can GUN HIM DOWN with ANY WEAPON, including the minigun(already spinning)… Even if you have other people around you, if you don’t parry, you go down for sure (he can’t claim you because of the other guys, but you do go down unless a miracle happens).

In the tournament (so good players) a pred killed 1 guy and quick claimed him in front of 3 PEOPLE!!! He did get to second wind but still meaningless. They where left in 3 and he was back in action really quick. People like you always find excuses. I remember arguing with some other predator mains about one of the best players out here fighting a very good PC russian premade and killing them all pretty much with the elder sword. It was based on a VIDEO he posted. They started by telling me I have no clue what a good premade is and those people where not good. Yes, pred mains always find excuses.

Sure the tournament can be used, they did nothing that nerfed the FT’s ability to parry in the tournament, NOTHING.

FT has “no problem” dealing with anything the pred does? I guess you never got to see a GOOD predator play! Yes, you CAN win but with “no problem” Hahaha, right, right… Your bias is showing!

…this trash game…[/quote]

Surely you’d like to show us the game you’ve made which isn’t trash?

I think the answer to all of this is that a coordinated FT with good aim and skill is much harder to deal with in any situation period. They can stack the damage quick and if they knock off your mask it gets even more difficult to keep track of them all. But you should look at it as a chance to change your strategies and adapt or actually HUNT them, in any of the movies did you see the Predator just rush all of the main characters and try to emulate a Bruce Lee fight scene? No they didn’t, they waited and stalked and chose the right moment. If I lose to a FT it means my tactics didn’t cut it or I made a critical error in judgement and the FT didn’t. Bottom line its Survival of The Fittest.

he has some points, Pred is currently have an upper advantage

I’ve already done this is tons of quickplay matches with the boys and we’ve never had a problem even in the worst case scenario with the elder sword at best the predator is down 80% hp and by then someone else would’ve been around or noticed and pop’d that predator like a cherry on saturday nights then run them down like dogs
as for Combistick shit it’s really easy to dodge sticks when you not supports by just jumping and crouching and short sprint dashes mix it up a predator is super unlikly to hit you don’t believe me? thats fine the literaly best predator we’ve ever faced used a primary thrown combistick build with adrenal long leaps and big pouch and sure we lost the first game but the second game we adapted cause normally i’m not the shot caller that game i was and it was a fat W cause i don’t know if you know this but it only takes 1 extract and FT wins we don’t even have to engage the predator if we don’t want to

and the only reason the predator got away with that in tournament is because again they arbituraily limited the FT players so your telling me the only reason the predator is able to do the things in those tournaments right now because of this so i can’t take any tournament arguments seriously as long as these rules are in place cause again it doesn’t represent the actual game unless your about to tell me as a FT i’m an “exploiter of unfair game mechanics.”

and man your gonna try and hit me with the “Excuses” and the “bias” huh interesting where was this gusto the time before
i broke down everything you said in a thread? that you just decided to ignore and never respond to? eh well who am i kidding im biased as fuck

Guess you didn’t play when the game first came out and Predators were hunted down in droves.

No what I’m saying is pre made ft are op and it’s a fair fight against scrubs. Shit I’m more than capable of winning a fight with 1 friend and 2 blue berries

I didn’t read all the things cause too long. Did they ban SAWZ-50 from ps4 tournament? Also AR as you said is the best weapon for close range but the overall best weapon is hammerhead since it has no recoil, good damage, good firerate and faster reload damage. In my opinion assault rifles need a complete balance patch.
