I too remember in the first movie where FT used spot on the pred once and proceeded to point and click it with hitscan weapons for 6 seconds because it jumped on a branch and all the audio in the game is directional.
Cloak went from being not worth using because the shimmer was so bad and it made the pred click, to being invis at a far enough distance, to being trash again.
Pred has to play the hitbox game with travel time on arrows, FT gets to 360 no scope with hitscan rifles. The skill ceilings are laughably one-sided. But oh boy maybe next patch pred will get yet another useless melee weapon when you die in seconds at that range vs a team with any kind of situational awareness.
