Predator self destruct devices are highly common. Every hunt they have them to keep the secrecy of their race if they were to fail in their hunt and are incapacitated. The fugitive did not have one because it was there to give tech, not hunt. It was on the run from the mega predators and probably even others of its own kind because it had broken some of its kinds’ most sacred laws in which was exposing their existence to humans as well as their tech. Another thing I find interesting was the Fugitive was the first female predator you see on the big screen, and yes it has been confirmed that pred was female.
Something I think/hope would make everyone happy. Read the whole thing
Well, theres no way to know for sure if he had a self destruct. Given that all the other ones bring one just in case, I’m operating under the assumption that its standard gear. Also, it was not confirmed to be female. In fact, I read an article quoting Shane Black (who stinks.) that said Fugitive wasn’t female and neither was Assassin. Im happy with the female Preds we have here anyway.
I have heard the opposite because they tried to be inclusive
either way they should add them into the movies as well, would be interesting to see a female hunter
Agreed. The only thing that concerns me there is design. Im happy with these females, but there’s a totally different group that wants the females to be just like the Assassin and not, ya know, female. To me, thats just lazy writing, making them male, but bigger. Theyre not insectoids, or like the xenomorphs in Aliens. Theyre humanoid. I think the way illfonic has done it here is the best way because you have the females and all the artists, gamers, cosplayers etc that design theirs this way are satisfied. Everyone wins.
I can agree plus sister midnight was a female looking predator
Yup. Not crazy about her armor though.
I like it since it was unique all things considered
The lmg hitscan problem could be fixed by giving it plasma rounds like the assault rifle (forgot the name)
It looked too much like a nightsister from star wars to me, but unique, sure.
OWLF Pit Bull
Hmm, well, she still has one of the most unique armors in the Predator Universe considering a lot share some similarity to each other with slight variations
Why do things have to have boob armor and hips & be relatable to humans for a group of people to acknowledge it as the female of an alien species lol
Dimorphism is more interesting than “predator but smaller and with boob armor + bow and arrow”
How is HIPS + BOOBS + SHORT = MUST BE FEMALE not lazier than females being larger and more dominant in pred society?
Even sci-fi aliens cant escape the female with bow and arrow coomer memes
Its like going “why dont half the humanoid female mass effect aliens not have boobs despite not being mammals this cannot be”
Transformers really suffers from this too like come on you put boobs on the giant alien attack helicopter and painted it pink? Which side is lazy writing here?
Making things the same, but slightly taller is clearly lazier. And I said nothing about a bow. Lady preds can/should carry whatever armaments they want. The males have dick armor to cover up their sensitives.
lol i meant the trailer for this game and illfonic going for the obvious low hanging fruit of tiny female pred with bow.
Females weren’t just slightly taller in the novels though? Theyre essentially she-hulks & can throw the average predator around. They also didnt have boobs so no “sensitives”
Not all female predators were. They came in all shapes and sizes just like humans. Shorty was a male predator that was shorter than his fellow Yautja. And actually they did. Several of the comics had portrayed them with breasts. Sister Midnight being one who was slender, yet muscular and had breasts. So, before stating something incorrect actually look it up.
I said predator novels lol you can re-read before getting snippy. Read If it bleeds if you find the time or just be angry about inconsistencies that vary depending on who’s writing.
Look at big mama.
The discussion is whether or not its lazy you coomer.
By the way Midnight was a Kenneth Irons superhero crossover lol, its about as legit as darkling xenomorphs. No way a witchblade comic has skimpy content because thats the brand?! You had a better case with the wheelchair predator.
Honestly don’t really give a shit. I get tired of seeing people like you who probably don’t play the game anymore and literally come on the forums to troll people and purposely start fights. So, frankly go fuck yourself and have a nice day.
I’m only calling you a coomer ironically, simmer down. Maybe internet forums aren’t for you if you have to tell someone to go fuck themselves over the portrayal of space boobs in media lol.
Ok, let’s all calm down. This is getting a little silly. Im aware that the novels portray the females one way. I dont care for it at all. Never have. Never will. I’ve enjoyed exactly ZERO novels. I consider it lazy writing. The comics suffer a great deal too and I own them all.
Furthermore, this game (I cant believe I’m typing this) is canon now, according to a press release before the launch. So females look like this. Not like the novels. Just like I was unhappy about the entire Star Wars EU being tossed out when Lucasfilm was sold, I’m sure there are fans of she-hulk Preds that are disappointed too, but thats life.
Predators are humanoid. I feel they should share some characteristics. Apparently, the writers and devs here do as well. There are female berserkers. Full on brutes. That should be enough to satisfy almost everyone who wants that stuff. There are skinny scouts too, to satisfy the other side of the discussion.
I also would love to see the next predator film feature a female. Boob armor and all. Let her carry the club and be a zerker if it makes people happy. As long as its good. I think she-hulk preds are not good. My mind won’t change on that, just like it wouldn’t if someone said, “hey, here’s a Xenomorph with a dick!”, I would say that’s dumb too, since nearly all Xenomorphs are female. Pretty sure only the face huggers are male. Lets leave them alone too.
I like these females, I like the Aliens the way they are, I like Han shooting first.
