I believe that Currently, We do not have a Well-defined Classification of what is a Weapon, Equipment and Standard Equipment in PHG.
A Weapon is Anything that does damage to the Predator or FT Soldier.
An Equipment is what can be carried, but which is not necessarily a Weapon.
And Standard Equipment, is that Equipment that every Class of Predator and Every Class of Soldier in the FT must have.
Examples:
- Weapon: Rifle;
- Equipment: Ammo Kit;
- Standard Equipment: Knife.
- Weapon: Combistick;
- Equipment: Motion Sensor;
- Standard Equipment: Wrist Blades.
Where do I want to go with My Post:
We need to make Illfonic Redefine Standardized Equipment for All Classes, from Equipment that can be freely chosen, and differentiate between Weapons and Equipment.
I say this because, Today, Predators have 5 Standardized Equipment: Camouflage; The Thermal Vision; The Wrist Blades; The Self-Destruction Device and the Plasma Cannon.
And none of them can be customized.
I say this, because in the film O Predador (2018), variations of the Pulse Blades and the Plasma Cannon have already been shown.
The Cannon already comes with the Mask. Or on the Wrists.
And the blades can be fired like a shot.
But FT Soldiers only have Knives as standard equipment.
A piece of equipment that should be standard for all classes of predators and all classes of soldiers in the FT is medical equipment.
For Predators, their respective Medical Kit. And for FT Soldiers, the Standard should be Syringes.
And Pigs need to be removed from the game. It makes no sense for pigs to be devoured, and the health of the predator to be increased.
What would make the most sense would be to Add a Predator Shape to Heal Any Wound, just like in Predator Movie 2.
Today, Some Weapons that are Secondary Weapons, should be either Standard Equipment, or Equipment.
For example: Pistols should be standard equipment for FT soldiers.
They all have a holster to carry them (but more pistol models could be added);
The PDL added to Dante’s DLC, does not cause any damage. Why does it not become an Equipment ?.
The Predator’s Network Launcher could also be an Equipment. Not a weapon.
The UAV Detector could also be a Standard Equipment for FT Soldiers.
Do you agree ?.
