Weapons X Equipment X Standard Equipment.

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 ?.

Pigs don’t need to be removed, FT has 2 different ways to heal, so if you take away predator’s ability to heal then gives us health regeneration to counter that, and oh boy, here comes the hate for this comment

Actauly I would like to propose a different idea.

Right now the healing items are an essential art of your kit.

Even if you can win without them they’re too good that not bringing one is a handicap.

What I would like to see is a buff to pigs an
pre-spawned med kits and a nerf to all healing items making them more optional rather then essential.

Also no.

Actauly ya I like that idea. Some pistols will need a nerf but that’s fine.

And in general FT ammo should be nerfed to put more empthesis on attrition.

That’s because it’s a cost. Instead of losing gear you lose a weapon which means no more secondary rather than a free gear item for gear points.

No UAV is too strong

My Friend, You are one of those who does not read the Whole Comment !.

I am suggesting something like this:


Just like the movie !.
In no movie does the Predator feed on pigs to heal itself.

So, I think that if the Field Syringes were a Standard Equipment, the Medical Kit would no longer be So necessary.

I think about it, for the simple fact that Every Soldier has his First Aid Kit.
These Field Syringes are exactly that.

But on the Maps, we can find medical kits with ease.
A Class that could take Medical Kits is the Support Class, as this Class has Enough Equipment Space. And one of his specializations is precisely field doctor.

About the Pigs, that’s what I replied to the other Colleague here in the Post.

I don’t think it makes any sense for predators to eat pigs to heal themselves.

If they had the same method as the movie Predator 2, it would make more sense.

It could be a System Used only when the Predator had almost been defeated.
Before you have the Last Option which is Self-Destruction.

We take Him to a Far Point, and He Heals Himself, making this blue gelatinous paste.

Yea!. I believe that All Soldiers use a Pistol as a Standard Weapon.

And for PHG, it is a great option to avoid wasting ammunition that causes more damage to the predator, killing AI soldiers.

But the PDL does not cause damage.

The Purpose for which it was made, is Great.

But it does not serve as a weapon.

They could reduce it in size.
Make it more compact.
And make it an equipment.

If it is to make a Weapon, I prefer a Bow or a Crossbow as I posted in the Feedback’s section.

I’m talking about the UAV that can briefly show us the Predator around us, the Weapon Boxes, the Ammo Boxes, the Medical Kit Bags and the VT Points on the Map.

This UAV could be Standard Equipment.

I don’t want srynges to be standard either. I want all healing equipment to be optional.

So, but Today They already are.

The idea is that only Field Syringes are Standard Equipment.

Yes but they’re so good that it’s a handicap to not take them.

I want the base healing we get in game without equipment to be enough to last a match and I want the current gear we have to be nerfed so they aren’t the strongest equipment in the game at the moment.

I did not understand.

Do you want that only with the Medical Kit Suitcases that are on the Maps we can make a Whole Mission ?.

But the current equipment and weapons are great.

It would not be necessary to reduce their effectiveness.

Did you see the other notes I made in your other Comment ?.

Ya.

I want the freedom to take whatever equipment I want without handicapping myself so I want the boars and med kits to be able to last me a match just like how my weapon is enough to last me the entire match and kill the Predator but the grenades give me even more damage.

Ya but even if we were to buff the boars and med kits they’d still be the best gear we have and like I said I want the freedom of using any gear I want without handicapping myself.

No I missed it

The Predator 2 heal was literally an updated version of the health kit we have now.

Plus the pigs are risky since the game dictates where you have to sit. Providing a drawback. Giving the health kit a unique advantage rather than your idea which just straight up nerfs the Pred.

So essentially using the healing kit when in second wind. That doesn’t do anything interesting besides add a new animation.

So essentially you have two heals and that’s it. That’s a straight up nerf and doesn’t provide anything interesting in return.

I agree.

Ya but that’s just being picky about the technicalities of what it is and ignoring the gameplay affect.

Recon with tracker and spotter.

At least now you have to give up field srynges which is a fair trade but now you get a free track on the Pred for six seconds three times a match.

I would try to avoid using that move as a reference for anything. Most predator fans don’t regard it as canon.

Ah ok

Exactly
God that movie was shit

Give pred gear worth taking over a healthkit. Maybe a perk for target isolation range or healing below 50% for people that don’t want to take medkits.

Not really an issue, medkit takes a lot of slots. The actual problem is that most gear items are a joke.

No. But they eat beef.


I imagine any meat will work for sustenance. I think the pigs are an imaginative way to include health resources. I think you should get less health or the health should take longer to apply, like a minute or 2, but you should also be able to cancel the feeding animation.

Yes. I also didn’t like the film itself.
But some good ideas were presented.

Like what?
The DNA thing goes against everything the predators did in the previous movies
The autism kid was a disappointment

I also agree.
But as I said, some good ideas were presented in the film.
Like the Plasma Caster and Wrist Blades Variations.

Observe from Moment 2:30.

The Predator Don’t have a Plasma Caster on their shoulders.
It’s in the Left Arm.

In this other Excerpt, at Moment 0:10 we can see another View of the Predator.

Where He can Focus on the Vision, and see in detail where the Soldier is.

And soon after, we can see that He Doesn’t Wrist Blades like the Original Predators.

He can fire those Blades.
(0:21 - 0:22).

And from the moment 0:45, we can see that the Masks also have a Firing Device (0:53).

That is, they are Good ideas.
