Strange arrow issues

Been seeing some weird stuff.

  1. Arrows going right through FT like ghosts. Tested and happens while they’re kneeling. Head shots and body shots go right through them. And no I didn’t miss. Dead center on target we were testing this
  2. Arrows shooting significantly to the right of where the target reticle is. Again reticle is on center of mass and it just sails like a foot to the right

Check your ping first, anything above 120ms will cause noticeable delay. It is also very imporant to understand 3rd person shooting with a pre-calculated angle. Meaning that your reticle moves according to the objects in front of you. What you might deem as “perfect shot”, in fact is still a little off.

However… there are some cases in which you are 100% right. When they mud-up the hitbox becomes very weird. You can shoot their torso: nothing. Shoot their asscheek, full hit. It mostly happens during FT animations.

I HATE that red dot reticle on the bow for Predator.

So you shake slightly at high charge, I guess thats fair? I dont like it at all but the dot also blinks at times and that can throw off precision shots.

I never noticed the shot to the right, I might be able to account for that now.

But I sincerely think that reticle could be changed to be more “accurate” of where the arrow will go. Its not exactly as pin point as it leads you to believe.

I wondered why they dont keep the design of the widespread/weaker shots and tighen it up for charge shots

Think it happens when they’re down too?

I’ve fired some shots at guys on the ground with full plasma shot and arrow and I question whether or not I missed

The FT hitboxes change when they’re mudding up. The hit box is just terribly configured like they were with tree branches and leaves before 1.06. When they’re mudding up your best chance to hit them is to aim dead center.

I generally aim at their lower body (their gut), or ass. Seems the devs wanted us to specifically target those area’s when the humans are down.

yeah this is a thing that needs fixing in the next patch with the predator stamina bug…

Its not ping or anything its just a bug. aimed weapons with pred sometimes go off the the right by a little or a lot. and when fireteam is mudding the arrows go through them sometimes.

Been reported a few times its definitly bugs.

Yep happened again. A lot. 4 arrows through the back while mudding. Got killed because of it. This game is fun, but also a buggy piece of shit with some dumb fucking mechanics. It’s getting harder to defend.

I have noticed that the arrow go above the red hot.

Yah it happened to me as well. I just swap to plasma on muddying up

I jokingly said yesterday that this game has more bugs than the average Bethesda game. Today I feel like the joke wasn’t a joke. I think that 1/2 times I lose as predator, I got overthrown with mechanics that just don’t work.

“Press F to pay respects”

F doesn’t respond

It triggers magnetic melee, won’t throw you out of your plasma cannon. Won’t pick up bounties. Get you stuck on boars, trees, finishers. Sometimes you get stuck, and you can’t even move. Worse if you are FT, relatively annoying as Pred.

These kind of things, should be taken care of, before release. Not during.

This game is in a worse state than most Early Acces titles - bug wise. And we paid 40 bucks to get it. Early acces has the decency to at least give a discount.

I see #2 on PC every now and again

Tends to happen when you are quickly in and out of harassing the fire team but then cancel shots to take a better vantage point

It does fix itself, not sure if its a time thing or if its triggered, possibly changing weapon fixes it
