I think I might have to switch from the sawz50 to the hammerhead to deal with these battle axe users.

Yeah, if I go down then the rest of the team is dead.

I’m used to winning most 1v1s, that’s probably why this battle axe shit is more annoying to me than others.

Yeah, but no one knew how to parry anything back then. Similar to now, most noobs and potatoes don’t know how to parry or dodge the battle axe.

The axe is pretty OP, anything that downs you in 1 or 2 seconds is OP.
But most FT weapons are OP as well.
Illfonic balanced the damage based on how poor most people aim, both using guns and melee.
So the game has become a stupidly high damage game which makes for short, uninteresting matches.
Most matches don’t last more than 3 minutes.

it’s also bugged, so it registers all damage hits even if you didn’t hit a few of them.

Now imagine if you could miss a few sawz shots and then land one that does the damage of all the shots you missed. Everyone will complain.

My problem here is how people always lean towards having Pred be stupidly easy to play, as if right now any decent player don’t feel it is like that 99% of the time.

Lower damage, nerf medkits, ammo crates, boars and make AI do as much damage to Pred as they do to FT. Then everything will be more fair.

The axe is 50/50. Either you die to it or you don’t, seems fair to me.

The sawz can still work well in certain situations, depending on the distance you spot the Predator coming with the Axe you can get a few hits with it before changing to the pistol when he gets closer, but the fast combo of using the full clip of hammerhead + grenade launcher usually work better.

These have been the meta for ages. Illfonic can’t even get the base game right, let alone try to “balance” all the weapons available to both Fireteam and Predator. So many specializations, perks, weapons, and characters are clearly the META. Everything else is just for fun or intentionally creating a challenge for yourself.

I’ve honestly given up on expecting them to do anything good or interesting with balance.

Best we can hope for is just 2v8 as a final mode.
As long as that’s not buggy, it will be a nice send off for this game.

Or a legit “Predators” 3v12. We already have 2 of the three masks from the movie.

They popped night maps and broke the game, imagine a new play mode lol.

Hence me saying without it being buggy.

I think after a few months of playing a 2v8 or 3v10/12 mode that’s a nice end to this game and most of us can truly move on.

I know I would.
