unbearable wait times as the predator

Playerbase: Rainbow Six >>> Predator

If you have a lot of noobs, you can throw them together. If you don’t have enough players, you have to throw everyone together. You can’t be picky and let them set filters, they won’t ever find a game with a normal ping.

lets just hope they fix these game breaking issues before it is dead, because if they fix this… the playerbase will grow fast.

Only if Youtubers have their back and they spend a bit on marketing.

Hunt: Showdown almost died, but they chose to invest heavily in a few Youtubers who kept talking about the game. The playerbase isn’t insanely high, but it’s still climbing. Almost a year after release. A game with 2 gamemodes and 2 maps. But a lot more replay-ability.

you play hunt? its just out on ps4 and i really enjoy that game.
havent played it since the last patch tho. but was planning to try out the fast shooting repeater perk very soon :)
I’m a only prestige 5, but was top 10 leaderboards with kills on quickplay

That double barrel shotgun and uppercut (with fanning) combo is just a beauty

P5 as well, but on PC. Played since release, got a little verbal with my old teammates at one point so I only play now and then.

had the same thing with a friend, but it was me beeing a ass… Already met a lot of fun players in that game.

I see people mention Evolve’s matchmaking.

Well guess what, the players were mostly the problem there as well, being entitled. ‘I only want to be monster’, ‘I only play support or I dc’, blablabla.

The players were the problem there and I see the same behaviour here. Stop being a selfish entitled brat.

I still play Evolve btw, ps4 since beta. <3

If every connect attempt would result in a game… people would understand and dont bitch about it.
I get your point of view, but dont look at the players like selfish brats and look at the real connection problem. This is the thing that gets people frustrated, not the estimated 5-7 miute queue…

I cant tell you how frustrating it is to be unable to play as a predator and end up in a full lobby without predator…

I also want to play pred. Would do it all day if I could. But I mix in some FT games, solo/duo/4. Even in private games, all guys want a match as pred :) learn to share lol

that says alot about you (in a positive way), but not everyone is you. and a matchmaking logic should be able to handle that.

Only way to ‘fix’ it, is to add bot FT.

Trust me, nobody wants that. For pred its boring and for FT frustrating.

Indeed, there is no way to fix longer queue times for predator. i fully agree with that.
But making them 1/3 of what they are now, is a possibility. fix timeouts and queues will be 1/3 (or faster) for predator and this will also impaxt FT queue in a positive way.

You don’t want Bots, you really really don’t. It might be “more” fun. But it’s a fix to patch a crack in the dam. Maybe noone is saying it loud enough, but you gotta fix the “dam” first. Remember Evolve’s bots? That was fun maybe the first 6 hours. After that… they became a joke. Cuz, they are bots.

We need live matchmaking right up until the match starts. No more 2/5 players there, 120 second wait: start match nonsense.

Dont push them bots in our face, but make it possible to chose to play singleplayer against bots would be nice

I do not want bots.

No.

i do it for a reason its a predator game its the same way i played tje last alien fame i was strictly an alien and not the marines or pred

lol selfish players i didn’t spend 80$ on a PREDATOR game to play as a soilder

im also a content creator im doing a few videos on this game and i have 2 that i have in mind that its level 1 to 100 as predator an 1 to 100 as fireteam.

I hope they fix it, i agree man… wtf bs

I’m actually having more fun playing as a fireteam member.
