Parrying makes playing fireteam fun. Predator is on your ass and you single handedly parry him is dope. I mainly play pred but fireteam is fun and I think this mechanic just adds depth and some skill to the FT since not everyone is good at parrying. I dont want it to be removed personally or nerfed further. It’s in a good spot

Within the context of this game and how it’s balanced, as much as it pains me to say, I agree.

It also ads a skill curve to predator. You HAVE to keep the FT line of sight in mind. I think that’s the core of this debate. Stop charging FT members when they’re looking at you.

ok cool thats a cool look on the Fire team side but thats kinda the bully logic there, " ( hes an 8th grade) man its really fun to kick the shit out of the grade ones!" but your not looking at it on the predator side
you stalked your pray waiting for a gape in there defences you jump in you start hitting him with your weapons only to see him turn around wipe out a knife that you can buy at wall-mart and he stuns you you think maybe that was luck so you go again and then stuns you again you leave wondering whats the point in melee weapons if thats an option you start using range weapons to avoid the stuns and then you stop feeling powerful as the predator and you start feeling more like the spy form tf2 if the spy had to stab you in the back 4-6 times to down you then stand over your boddy for 3-6 seconds as people take their sweet time aiming for you head and getting servel free head shots.
yea parry is not very fun for both sides
When he pulls out a knife, disengage. If you KNOW he will parry you, why do you continue to swing into it???

yea not for the fire team there should be more thinking then switch too the kinfe and spam left click or right tigger to win. thats so annoying to watch, if i wanted to play a FPS where the kinfe was more powerful then the gun in a game about guns i would play MW2
did you even read it ? i would repeat but im going to make you have to try abit here
also as a side note
do you ever argue your points with out stuffing words into peoples mouths?
I like getting someone who can parry my combie get them used to it then throw it through their face. Never gets old

Yeah dude it was a whole wall of text and then you went off on a tangent about tf2 for some reason.
You’ve contributed nothing here except more complaining. Go back to your other thread, gremlin.
Yes.
Actually I dont have issues with fireteams parrying me just attack once and stagger after every attack. If you do that it makes parrying extremely hard because you’re not chaining attacks which means the fireteam guy only has one shot to parry you since theres a specific parry window. Have plasma or bow or pistol out wrist blades are auto default so you can attack once stagger into a plasma bow etc. Mix up your tactics depending on your opponents skill level. Preds that do full combos on someone that’s mashing the parry button will always get parried. Just stagger after every attack if they’re good at parrying. If they’re not and seem scared do full combos that’s the IQ of the hunt knowing how good each member is and figuring out a way to kill them anyways 😃

Ok first off
ah no you were trying to say if i knew you said you read the thing but i stated
that would imply i didnt know he was going to do it again as i thought it was luck i thought thats clear you know when i said it as i said it. but guess not. so again words into peoples mouths.
so no it wasnt but use your child brain to think of another Exsue to use go on i’ll wait.
its not about having problems it its about is it fun? for the fire team? yea sure it can me loads of fun to tell the predator he cant play for sure. as the predator? taking control form the player is never a good idea if your aim is for fun. ergo traps would make more sense.
at least then it takes some thinking to use it.
i dont know i dissagree with having something in the game that you can use when ever you want and not even need to think about it just switch to the knife spam a button and boom the predator has to switch to range and go to a tree nothing he can do on the ground because of a 12$ kinfe form wall-mart fuck just thinking about it makes me cringe.
not reallying you can start attacking once every 0.5 of a second or if you prefer 500 milaseconds soooooo fast thats fast and the predator attacks once every 1.5 seconds so not as fast so you as the fire team if hes standing on you can parry him and knife him twice then parry him again if he waits for you too swing then he attacks well guess what by the time you hit the button to attack again he blocked it so no that doesnt work if some one has the knife out.
i shouldnt need to play not like the predator in the movies because the devs thought it would be cool too make a butter kinfe out beat an alien blade.
I can agree with that.
Its fun to one vs one with a parry god.

The predator kills from a distance and does close combat in the movies.
he kills 3 people in the movie with a ranged attack and 3 with melee but with parry being as much of a cock block its pushing to have a ratio of 90% range and 10% melee the ten being when its just a 1v1 and its fair. in every single other scenario you go ranged and my god is it borring to be forced to play that way.
parrying i wouldn’t even say is a problem in it’s own right when supports/dutch with high hp perk setups can literally out dps a melee predator via the LMG and kill him before a full combo comes out/before you even kill the single FT guy i’ve done this plenty of times to every melee weapon in the game currently it only fails on predators who throw their melee weapons the parry isn’t even worth complaining about when melee is unviable due to dps output of some guns in the game
