I just picture it like the pred yells out Marco, and on instinct a ft member says polo, then right after just yells FUCK cause he realizes all to late he fucked up xD.
TARGET ISOLATION NEEDS GONE ASAP

I did say that if target Iso got tweaked then so too should thermal so that it would make FT easier to spot, I do actually want to be found as FT, what would be the point in playing if the Pred never found you?
i agree. isolation can be replaced with better mechanics. I’m all for that. the thing about this thread is that we all understand that you’ve got to be doing what Dead is describing here because people mud up and it nullifies isolation to begin with. so who knows why this thread exists. I would love if additional mechanics for tracking existed other than spotting gunfire bubbles or searching for moving blue pixels. there is the footsteps perk as well, still underwhelming IMO.
If that ever happens I so hope that someone was recording it and posts it here…
And so is predators noise sensors.
DeadEyeBuddha wants a one legged blind predator, with no mask to start because he’s too lazy to hold a button for 3 seconds…
Yeah mudding up really does just nullify it, but if Illfonic are reading these forums and trying to take feedback on board, if both FT and Pred mains say that the tracking side of the game could be reworked then they may take some action on it.
In that case what would you change about the tracking side of the game? I am sure they would want to know what the Preds think of it too?
Oh here we go, can’t wait to be called a troll some more …
Hey Drakos, I dont think thats what Dead is trying to get at, if you read over the last few replies to the post then you will notice there has been some constructive feedback to all this.
If you have anything you would like to change and alter then just say, challenge what has been said in a constructive manner and potentially make a more interesting tracking method for Predator play.
ya fair point. I would like additional vision modes.
One to see weapons as in predator 2. Another perhaps to see electronics either the fireteam use for missions or actual mission objectives so you know where they might be headed. with those 3 you have an answer to most situations. you have different types of data that while they may not let you know exactly where the fireteam is at all times you can actually proceed through the match with some sort of a plan and a more organized ambush while having more pred visions to play with.
The heartbeat monitor being functional, so you can cycle through gun sounds, vocal sounds or heartbeats but not all at once. This would be mean you can manually control what you are trying to identify and not just sit there waiting for sounds to happen then go in that direction.
a temporary contrast or thermal flare option at the expense of energy could be cool too so it magnifies heat signatures.
a zoom function.
things in thermal vision which give off heat to actually register as such not just cannisters and medpacks.
just some ideas! they may not necessarily work as id hope in game but come closer to being a predator and more engaging than what we got.

I’d rather thermal vision had an upgrade to be more enhanced and they can scrap that isolation altogether then it’ll be thermal vs mud just like the movie and finally become an hunt.

they could rework how thermal actually looks as well because its pretty 2002 looking.

oh and definitely the triangulation scanner that predator uses to detect the rock when arnold throws it. you could triangulate sounds or tracks or something. it could take a while for the process to complete and you may have some sort of engagement with the mechanic to get it to complete. it could maybe show the last known position then you use your brain to hunt from there.

Yes deffo that’ll be awesome
what we have now for alot of the mechanics lead one to think what they really could have been, as much as i enjoy the game. here is hoping in the future they add more and not just maps and colour variants.
I agree that target isolation needs to go.
I’m not a developer nor a pro gamer but I think if you remove target isolation and increase the size of the audio queues (weapons fire and alarms) this will force the fire team into actually trying to play more stealthily.
OR
Target Isolation is reserved for boars.

Brilliant idea yes this would be top notch.
Oh I so like this, I have always thought the Preds need some kind of method to find out what the FT are carrying, It would so help with their engagements.
I like the sound of a increased intensity to heat vision at the cost of a chunk of energy or maybe the preds eyes light up brighter due to the intensity?
Yeah for what their masks are worth, I am sure they would have a zoom function…
medpacks register heat? If so, how about a recently used item gives off heat emission and slowly cools?
Yeah thanks man, all those suggestions I think would improve preds gameplay
@DeadEyeBuddha Hey you may want to swap the title of your thread to something like “potential Target isolation reworks” might help people get more involved in what they would like to see from the preds vision
