If we make them squishy we can
I should clarify. Nerf the range of splash damage.
Give them halo aim assist they need it, otherwise balance will always be lopsided because the average console player is missing over half their shots. One input device can reliably hit a predator bunnyhopping around, the other cannot. So damage just gets tuned through the roof. Other games deal with bunnyhoping via very generous aim assist not turning up the damage 200%.
Than preds need aim assist so that would just be making PS4 players into pc players

I’m fine with this. It’s a crossplay game and this is how you get console players to stop disabling crossplay. Consistency across platforms.
Otherwise one platform is going to suffer in balance compared to the other because people can’t reliably hit things.
I think FT is already pretty good when it comes to surviving.
20ish bullets form Mercenary (bane + deadly) puts Hunter into 2nd wind.
While I with Down Range have to shoot 1 fully charged arrow + 2 uncharged just do down Dante and that’s the case if he doesn’t pop his syringe and if I place my shots.
Now there’s field medic problem lol
All in all, I think FT has enough of everything, and trust me on this, I have like 34 days game time just as FT. xD

It’s alot of hours for any game, but to be honest, I kept playing PHG 'cause I play it with friends from time to time and that’s always fun. Playing with randoms who don’t even mud up eventually becomes pain in the rear and quite boring when you have to carry 3 potatoes in almost every match.
I’m on PC so I’m on Epic and there’s an option to see how many hours have you spent playing any game you choose. I believe you, I know few guys who play this game every day for several hours, few hours in the morning or afternoon and few hours in the evening.
I can’t do that, 'cause life obligations etc, but even when I could, I didn’t, like if I do something very often, whatever that is, I get bored quickly.
The best matches I had was when I actually missed playing PHG.

Well most of my hours came due to the pandemic. I was out of work all the way till September so had nothing to do but play. When my job brought me back my play time has decreased alot. Im sure I would have 5000+ if I was still out of work like the unlucky

This is the crux of the matter. I think it’s just impossible to balance this game given the amount of variables.
FT (Random, uncoordinated players) in comparison to FT (Communicating, coordinated team) are light years apart, and you can’t balance the Pred play against both.
I win the majority of my games because if I’m honest the majority of the time I’m facing random FT players. They may have one or two skilled players that cause me issues, but nothing that I shouldn’t be able to handle.
If I face a good, communicating team making use of the right classes/perks, it’s a whole different game, and a damn sight harder one. I have beaten squads like this, but on a lot of occasions you’re looking at a loss (usually down to them being able to exfill, as it’s nigh on impossible to get them all down).
I’ve come to the conclusion that Illfonic will just balance the game according to the stats they have in terms of player numbers and which faction they’re playing. If they see a significant swing towards playing one particular side which is affecting queue lengths detrimentally, they nerf the side that is overly popular until the balance is restored. Repeat indefinitely.
…All that said, as I am a Pred main, it is obligatory for me to state…

Haha same here bro, I even bought the game when pandemic started, somewhere at the end of the March or early in April, I forgot the exact date.
I also was out of work, for almost 2 months, before I got called back to work and I had nothing else to do but play some games and watch movies and stuff in those 2 months.
The most boring 2 months of my life tbh.

Exactly as I view it. I would like to add that even if predators lose at exfils they usually get a skull or 2 in the process giving some success to the hunt. In a way both sides win something.
Yeah man. I had 5 and half months after that. I am very thankful for this game saved my life.

That’s a long ass time, I wouldn’t know what to do with myself if I was in your place ( 5+ months ).
I can only thank myself for buying a laptop so I could use it to waste all that free time that I had but didn’t asked for it. xD
