I just think they don’t do any damage. I see people just get lit up from ai but don’t die
They should make AI do more damage on the Marines

Play FT, they can and do down you if you’re not careful.
Also their damage was already buffed.

No doubt. Plus they also tend to shoot through foliage and shit so you can be lit up and have your bullets blocked by leaves and shit.

I’ve played both side I think it’s to easy for ft because the ai don’t do a lot of damage and the ai is probably worst ai in any game no challenge at all

Oh the AI do suck most of the tIme but numbers and disgusting close range damage boosts mean they can melt you while you’re picking up a friend. Force you too engage them, rather than the Predator and use up all your ammo before you can even face the Predator.
Earlier today I ran out of Hammerhead ammo because the game decided that all the troops would spawn in as heavy armours, after 27 AI kills, I was fighting the Pred with a Pistol.
Also doesnt help that all of them are headshot immune and as such encourage you to burn ammo spraying them as well.
Shitty enemy design imo right there alone.
If you buf the AI you need to nerf the Predator, the more you buff the AI the more nerfed the pred becomes. Imagine getting swarmed by 6-7 AI as the predator is attacking you, its sure death if those AI are not as they are now.
Also, the predator should not expect the FT to be killed by AI, he should be doing that. Also, as others said, they burn your resources and get your HP down enough (at times) that the predator can 1 shoot you.
I think the dumb AI are fine but I have a problem with them being able to spot an invisible non-moving predator. If you cloak and and don’t move even after 5sec the AI will find you.

No AI just needs to be smarter and provide an actual challenge.
The predator is supposed to provide the challenge. If the AI provides a challenge, the predator needs a heavy nerf or you’re not surviving an attack from AI+Predator…
The predator is suppose to provide the challenge your absolutely right, unfortunately the predator is not capable of doing that without a good distraction.
game would be much better if it was ft vs a squad of 4 drug lords and 1 predator. Both sides have to watch out for Pred… Pred is just there to take advantage of situations
I commented this on another thread before but depending on who raised the alarms then the backup PMCs would change. If pred activates the alarm then the PMCs will be equipped to deal with the predator and will mainly hunt it unless the FT gets too close. These PMCs would be lightly armored but with high damaging weapons. If the FT raises the alarm then it’d be pretty much the same as it is now with heavier bullet spongey enemies. This way I can see both factions respecting the AI and trying not to be detected.

Interesting I like the players fighting each other drug cartel vs fire team, with the predator watching and waiting in the shadows. I’d be more keen on it if the Predator Could do original damage intended from game release but keep the health where it’s at and remove weapon glow from all ranged weapons, when crouched the predator makes no clicking to give a real feel of stalking it’s prey.

Oh yes, that sounds so wonderful! Well not so much if play FT… I would love to have this invisible monster 2 shoot me and not even knowing where those come from or what hit me!
Not only that if you think the que is bad now when you need 4 marines for 1 predator, imagine 8 marines for 1 predator. Hope you don’t mind 30 mins que.
Then we need to look at the game and how it will handle that many players… I am thinking not good… More so for PS players… I got a best PC.
Worst thing is when 1 surviving FT member takes shots from 10+ AIs at the chopper landing strip… Maybe reviving one or two teammates or managing to escape while I’m slashing him with wristblades and 15+ Ais are shooting him.
Happened quite a lot of times.
If he is full health he can take those shots and revive someone. If you are slashing at him with your wristblades its impossible. Now for the time it takes to climb the rope? It can be done, but not reviving and escaping after.
This is what you do, if you know the predator will jump on you when you go to the ropes, you STIM as it has regeneration and then you hit the rope. He is not going to be able to go trough your normal health + regen before you’re out. You can net him and stop it.
