So fed up of seeing “Predator couldnt be parried by a knife in the movie” or “plasma canon would one shot Jessie Ventura and soldiers”
If you want to see an extremely eskewed fight where one side dominates the other, just go and watch the effing movie… it does NOT make good balance for a game, and if you think it does, you are part of the problem not the solution.
When a game is based on a Movie, the movie is going to be the reference point for 95% of the people who buy the game.
Simple as that.
I bought it cuz i love the movies, and Predator as a character.
Yes, however games require proper balance. Especially multiplayer games. It can’t just be so one sided.
There are alot of ways to make this game almost identical to the movies, and yet have balance.
Illfonic just made a bad foundation they are now trying to fix.
If the game released with no parry, no one would argue over it, and there would have to be other ways to deal with a predator close up. FT could also have a trap of some sort to repel a meleeing pred, etc.
They took away my cannon ffs, im not gonna accept that, not playing until they fix it and come up with better ideas to counter it.
If you want a game when one side dominates the other… well it’s a game that isnt gonna last long as the other will say f*** it and move on and all the Predator players will be queueing for 3 hours to get a game
Simple as that, simpleton
I mean, parrying makes the most sense when you have a Predator assaulting you mashing their attack button. FT couldn’t just plant a trap during something like that. Also having to rely on traps that require luring a Predator sounds like it wouldn’t really work.
But I do like the idea of giving the FT the ability to set traps ala Dutch, haha.
It’s a video game, not a 1:1 real life simulator. To make a game fun and playable liberties must be taken. Health bars, respawns, game physics, Stamina bars, etc. All of these are unrealistic but yet are needed for a game to be fun.
Perfectly doable, the shoulder cannon nerf was my last straw, because it 100% worked as intended. Cant count how many times they saw me aiming at one of their friends and i hear them go “dude MOVE!” in the voice chat. CAnt beat that feeling, and they DESTROYED it for me. Hell i even think the FT liked the laser and knowing a oneshot was about to drop, gives a feeling of dread and looking out for your mates.
Now its “alright mate theres a laser on your forhead, but you can take one shot anyway so…have a cigarette first, then move”
The parry is just cringy, balance or not…a human shouldnt be able to havea standoff with melee weapons against a pred, figiure something else out. Let them have a flash they can blind him with, or pop off a bright flare, just anyhting than a parry with a tiny combat knife…Its just stupid.
And the classes…mates! Even the movies had classes, the first one. All the actors had their roles, and they all displayed diffrent traits. One guy was a weirdo who sensed the predator, spotter. The other was a horny jackass with a minigun, not much else. One told shitty jokes, buffs the team i guess, i dont fucking know, this game is pissing me off so i gotta leeeeeave…
EDIT: shit forgot to add why i even mentioned classes, thats how annoyed i am. The games FT classes should be well,classes! They cna all wear the same things, use the same guns, they can all be medics, snipers, support and ammo carriers. Remove this, its hilariously bad. Remove the name classes then, and just call them “loadouts”. Battlefield classes worked wonders, use that. Same for Predators, make them use diffrent gear, or atleast buff certain gear on certain classes.
I can agree with “not anyone would have the balls to just parry a Predator with a knife”, but it is a game. 🤷🏻♂️
I feel like no matter what was done in its place, people would still complain. It’s impossible to make everyone happy, especially with this community. Honestly it’s some of the most divided opinions I’ve seen in awhile.
I wish the classes definitely had more meat to them. Because it’s literally nothing but different stats for the most part. I wish there were more defined roles, but, y’know. 🤷🏻♂️
Hey asshat, did I say I wanted a game where one side dominates… no, I said the movie is going to be quoted regardless of how much your Whitney bitch ass complains about it… simpleton.
now kindly fuck off you’re scaring the livestock.
Has nothing to do with my point about the movie being a reference most people are going to turn towards, so yeah… ok.
Want some candy
See, this right here is my biggest gripe… why can’t we mimic the best lines from the movie as the Predator!!!
That’s where the franchise came from. What the hell else are they going to go off of dumb ass lol. Smh use comman since
If were going by the movies predator can’t see colors either…Imagine if thermal vision was always on and if your mask got shot off you now have normal pred vision wish is basically weaker thermal. As it stands now if all the ft are mudding up you just turn off thermal other than the super cheap auto locate and use norm human vision…
The Predator should have some advantage when fighting, it shouldn’t be at a disadvantage
Predator WAS parried in a movie. Danny Glover parried the predator a number of times during Predator 2’s final fight. Granted, he used preds own smartdisk, but still did it.
Can see the fight here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHwiXFc9MOw
Also, Blaine was actually two-shotted by the plasmacaster in the movie. Feel free to rewatch the scene. He gets hit once, then turns to face away, and is hit by the second bolt to the back.
In predator 2, the special forces had figured out that Yautja only see in infrared, so had figured out thermal suits that gave up no heat signature, while using UV lamps and visors to see the predator themselves. This seemed good up until the point the predator figured it out and used their handy arm computer to cycle frequencies in their biomask… ie. The biomask made them capable of seeing in any kind of light, basically.
Well, I think the mud tacticks/perks Will be more more usefull if predator is Going to be unable to see “normal” color gama Vision as humans without mask. The Vision can be redlighted just in 1 Predator movie in final duel. Default Vision in mask Will be Heat Vision and some other alternate, normal Vision can be energy drained Mode actually
I wish they had in depth stats like in friday 13. They could have different levels of composure that would make them less or more efficient to complete mission objectives while under pressure. We could aslo see a reduction of the accuracy for the same reason.
IDK if the amount of noise made by every classes is the same but if it is, they could add different one !
