Some feedback on gameplay and balance after 5 years of playing PHG.

#1

Just some simple bullet points on what I believe the game would benefit from to make it more enjoyable:

Fireteam

  • Leader specialisation should either give only other team mates the damage buff or reduce it back to 10%.

  • Tracker perk duration should be reduced by 3 seconds.

  • Double/triple knife-hit bug should be patched out.

  • Buff the useless shotguns.

  • Mines are very bad. Revamp them somehow. Make them have an area of effect or make them redeployable.

  • Quite a few perks are terrible. (Silent for example, for 4 points!; Pig in Shit is also too expensive)

  • How about the secondary mission drops an ammo-crate or a medipack? It could provide an actual incentive to do it.

Predator

  • I never understood why the Predator spends energy to use the heat vision. Make it so heat-vision does not require energy. Perhaps adjust cloak consumption accordingly.

  • Reduce the amount of smart-discs to 1 but make it indestructible.

  • Bring back the flashing eyes when changing vision. (Would be ok I think if heat vision does not require energy.)

  • The shield is really bad. Needs urgent help but not sure anybody cares about it anyway. Maybe make it a gear rather than a weapon.

  • Increase the amount of arrows for the bow.

  • Increase the amount of Healing Kits to 3. So Large Pouch perk is not such a necessity any more.

I’ll add more later on.

some preds have glitches that let them use thermal indefinitely

#3

yeah, 1 by default and 3 with the Large pouch

It’s enough to make it without energy consumption and with sweeping cutting melee attacks, like in the movie.

#4

VERY NICE!

I agree with your feedback. as a reward I shall give you my seed.

I can’t wait for them to use your ideas in the production version of PHG!

honestly if they did ever decide to do anything really with the shield i would like this to be a baked in mechanic expand teh duration of the “Shield’s Aura” So that predator effectivly can create his own cover anywhere at anytime so long as he has energy. simaler to Reinhardt’s sheild from overwatch but Predator can shoot through it and FT cannot sure it only lasts like let’s say… 6 seconds. but in that six seconds FT either has to move or just take damage while they trade with the shield to sap some of pred’s energy.
