Unexpected gameplay

since im a new user, i can’t post links

IGN just released a review, at the 2:32 mark, it is spot on because it talks about the key issues as playing predator

i wanted to talk about the gameplay mechanics, this is not exactly what i expected. anyone whose watched the movies will know that the predator simply waits on an opportunity and kills his prey undetected

PREDATOR
in this game, trying to kill FT players without their team mates knowing rarely happens as any competent team will simply stick together, so the moment you down an opponent, you will get gunned down really quickly and will be forced to retreat, its not the fault of the player, there just literally isnt anyway to split up the fire team

FIRE TEAM
for the fire team, all they do is just run to the objective, and kill AI, just go in guns blazing. i wanted to see the fire team use stealth to battle against the predator, not just slap some mud on yourself and sprint away

also would have love to see the Fire teams try to hunker down and lay traps for the predator

final thoughts
i wanted to see a game that followed the concept of game called “THE HIDDEN SOURCE”, where both the FT and the Predator are both glass cannons, (obviously the predator being a bit more durable), soldiers can kill and be killed easily just like the predator

instead we got a game where the predator will run up to a player take 6 mags to the face, then jump off, because he has no way of splitting the enemy up for easier kills

we need to lower the predators health, while at the same time, increasing his lethality giving him a multitude of options to split the enemies and kill while the team mates doesnt even notice the team mate is dead leaving FT in a psychological mess trying to survive

but i doubt we will ever see such a drastic change

THE HIDDEN SOURCE

The Hidden: Source was an amazing game. I wish this had the same feel as that.

the psychological aspect of the game really players going, trying to find out where the enemy was and was incredibly afraid at the same time

the mind games is what made the game really good, he could kill players easily, but he could easily be killed himself, forcing the hidden to actually make smart decisions and attack when the opportunity is perfect, rather than just run in and swing
