Sooo DEVS lets talk about that destructible bear trap thing and the NET GUN

SO yeah title says it all could we please idk maybe make the bear traps harder to destroy like they can be knifed now into oblivion and then on top of that if i throw a couple bear traps close to each other where their bubbles touch if one gets destroyed they all go kaboom like come on devs

@Courier @OldKingHamlet could we idk maybe get this reversed somehow.

and 1 more thing the nets from the net gun could we please just make where you have to hold a button down to get out of it with trapper perk actually affecting the difficulty of that, because so many people on PC just use macros or hotkeys for the same action they literally get out of the net almost instantly i mean like 1-2 seconds instantly.

Regarding nets - Some players use macros to press any button an ungodly number of times that’s why it’s like that. It used to be that way.

why? if people spot them when you throw it down they have a chance to be destroyed? if they dont the trap is protected. it’s balanced now

I think that’s what it’s supposed to be but traps are destroyable 100% of the time

They literally make noise. And are very visible. The only way to reliably trap anyone is to literally drop it at there feet like a grenade and get shot up for your troubles

This was a massive nerf to the predator

Also the trap is never protected. They are destroyable at anytime

They should be destructible, IMO.

The way how Illfonic intended it is the best way imo. But having it make noise and being destructible at all times just makes the Bear Trap not worth running at times. I’m pretty sure this is just a new glitch that isn’t how it’s intended to be.

I don’t care if they buff the health, wading through them to the reinforcement radio is annoying.

Things need counters, course not like you can do it stealthy as the last one up anymore, so really I guess it doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things.

The bare traps ARE the counter to reinforcements lol

instead of shooting it and breaking it it should be a minigame you slowly walk up to it once you enter the circle you have a limited time to disarm it before it activates and if you move to fast in the circle it activates instantly so you slowly move up to it and do a minigame like maybe disconect the right wires but i dont how you would know the right wires maybe a symbol pops up on screen and the wires with that symbol is the right wires now of course if you take to long or pull the wrong wire it instantly activates

Oh, bear traps were unfair because they made it harder to bring back players from the fucking dead? Ok 🙄

now that is a genius idea good sir

Bear traps being destroyed is fine. It’s how they went about it is the problem, attacking the ACTUAL trap itself is what I thought was the case not the giant ass aoe. Also anyone can escape the net within 1-2seconds already anyway. Even on pad you can.

Sitting there disarming it? Might as well be caught in the trap.

If the traps weren’t super visible and loud (what the fuck?) I would have zero issues with them able to be destroyed

No it isn’t. One knife stab and they’re popped? It’s made from alien metals, it should have a much higher resistance to damage. They’re broken, but anything that makes your weak gameplay easier is ‘balanced’. Fuck outta here.

This is cool👍🏼💯

I’m ok with audible traps, but they should be totally invisible if you can destroy them.
