Y'all appreciating this game yet?

Somebody gets it. Same for people complaining about classes not being entirely new models but “zerk with different armor, hunter reskin, etc” The base pred model is FINE its insanely expensive & time consuming to rig a whole model from the ground up. I don’t know if people expected whole new animations or what. Compare it to trash like DBD’s janky killer animations & clearly a lot more soul and time went into the pred, props to the modeller. Not so much for the FT and their lack of animations though.

The maps use the same 3 tree variants because thats what predkour allows for. Assuming new maps give people new things to jump off thats a long tedious process adding more assets than the same couple trees. Not considering AI, voiced objectives, map balance/flow (fucking backwater swamp with 1 tree in it and a big open area with a bunch of low buildings.)

Neah, I think people expect of them to fix at least game braking bugs before asking for money.
This game released with 3 maps and 1 game mode for 40 euros. Now how many people both it…

#104

The bugfixers are usually the ones handling the code that have been there from the start. Art design and marketing are different teams & they’re not going to stop doing their job because of an issue on another team’s end. Doesn’t even make sense.

“Uh there’s a few serious problems with city hunter, how about you guys take the month off and postpone dlc until we get this fixed within some indeterminate timeframe.”
Games developed by more than 10 people don’t work like that and never will.

No bud, this takes coding just as well, its not just about art. They are not putting out a comic.

Imagine going out and buying a car, they ship it with no windows. you demand windows but they show up and try to sell you carpets for your car and explain to you they are different departments… You’re probably going to be pissed and demand your windows.

On the other hand I find it funny how people like you defend them with no pay after providing a bug ridden product with abysmal content.

#106

A car with no windows…? Wtf shorten your analogies.

It’s you going out to eat and complaining about the fact that the restraunt is still selling t-shirts on their website even though one of the fryers is broken. Whining because you ate there for $40 dollars, decided after you ate it that you didnt like it, yet they’re still selling shirts to people oh no this cannot stand.

Can’t put the sound design guy bugfix duty genius. Can’t tell the guy running the website to go fix the fryer.
Your concept artist, modeller etc are working with NECA to get Alpha out on schedule but oh wait there’s a networking error, players are getting disconnected! Postpone the DLC until Epic & the guys working on networking get it sorted out! Shut down everything because that won’t have more backlash than bugs. Everyone knows you can only work on one thing at one time and if you do anything else you’re a greedy monster selling those $5 skins + weapons and monthly free content.

No, my analogy is fine, you’rs is not. If I they deliver fries with mold on them, I wait for 1 hour and instead of bringing another serving they come and try to sell me shirts… That would be a better one.

No but codding also go into new weapons that come with those skins “genius” as well as different statistics and a few more things. At this point all the money should not go into new models, if they can’t handle it, divert the funds to some other company to fix it!

On the other hand people like you are the reason we keep getting such products. You and people who keep buying the DLCs. Nobody should be buying shit until they fix the damn game.

Oh and bugs include even art assets. Put a full face mask and see the neck area how it looks.

Nop, they are company who does not give a shit about us and all they are about are money. Until we effect them where it hurts they will not care less. Now keep defending them.

There’s no mold on them. The game works. You got product as advertised boo hoo yet pretend you don’t because you need 100s of hours out of a $40 game & make stupid car analogies for an online service. Still here instead of charging back. You ate your moldy unplayable fries or whatever months ago.
The weapons aren’t newly rigged models they’re just set animation strings + some hitboxes. It’s not taking time away from “bugfixing.” You think wrist launcher has a vastly different setup than netgun?

#109

So this game has no game braking bugs? No bugs right? How can you say this product is as advertised? Care to link me to the advert telling me they are putting out a game ridden with bugs?

It takes coder to code any weapons bud. Point is they take resources from there. Now that you finally see they need coders for it, you change the conversation.

#110

I’m going to go ahead and disappoint you rn and tell you they aren’t going to reshape the preds head for certain masks.

#111

Look at the neck area on FT with a full cover on. The skin goes trough the damn mask.

its not limited to preds.

#112

You log on. Play match. Match ends. Game works.
Bethesda wouldn’t even be in business by your logic. “UH BUGS AND CLIPPING IN MY $40 GAME?!”

CH is a combistick reskin. Same hitbox as hunter.
It does not take imaginary time away from the bugfixing to turn netgun into wrist launcher. A whole new pred model from the ground up is a bigger deal because it needs new sets of animations everywhere + predkour etc & interacts with everything else in the game. A weapon interacts with nothing, aside from the netgun (ft animations, pinnable surfaces.) Whereas melee strings are the same 3 anims.
Games aren’t developed by one person anymore. Foundation for weapons/armor/shaders has existed since launch and a bunch of this was ready pre-launch to begin with hence the confidence in adherance to monthly releases. If you really want to bitch and moan about something you should rewatch the trailers and count the executions we dont have implemented yet and use this to scream about false advertising.

Going to disappoint you right now and tell you they aren’t going to remodel any heads on anything. Body type 1 and 2 be damned! Too bad that makes the game unplayable for you and illfonic shat in your fries.

#113

Yeah, I log in I see things like predator slow walk, predator auto claim, predator eating boars with no imput from the player, I get stuck in trees, I see horrible matchmaking system, I see lag in switching weapons from the weapon wheel… I see pigs not spawning on the maps, I see wrist computers not working and I can’t disarm… Should I continue?

I am glad we got to a point where people like you can justify anything. I remember back in the day how pissed people where for microtransactions, now? All steam ahead even with game braking bugs!

#114

So chargeback, take your ban, get your $40 because it sounds like your copy of the game is cursed & you have no hope any of this will be fixed because they’re also selling skins and still working on monthly content. But wait all bark no bite. Your justification is “uh it has bugs I didnt pay for bugs literally unplayable, this is like moldy fries” after being here for months and putting hours upon hours into the game.
No one actually cares about microtransactions or phone games wouldn’t be a thing. Mostly just for grandstanding against EA while buying NBA games that get remade every year.

It’s the whining about illfonic not halting production on planned content because xan has slow walk auto claim no pigs weapon swap bugs every match he plays. But if you’re curious the legal reasoning is -> can you start the game? -> can you connect to the service -> if yes then congratulations you have completed the transaction. Welcoming to gaming the past 10 years. Boo hoo online service. If they were the moneyhungry boogeyman they’d just monetize the lootboxes four months ago.

You can’t passes your Whiny Bitch statues to me, someone gave you that title and it wouldn’t be respectful for you to just give it away, or for me to accept it.

Oh, you don’t like what I’ve said. Well I did not like it just as well. You defended that guy and not even have the decency to read the discussion.

#117

Bud, I am not saying I can take them to court. On the other hand I am sure as hell not going to buy there next game until its on discount (if I am interested).

#118

I’d only read up to that point, I did go back and finish, sometimes I like to respond before reading more. I didn’t change my comment as I thought it still applied.

I also don’t think I’ve interacted with that member, and didn’t need to make a comment about capitalist responsibilities to them.

#119

You do know in capitalism you can offer negative feedback right? This is one of the reasons this forums exists. Yeah, I could have done better research on the game. We were discussing the state of the game, then that guy told me to grow up in a rude way, then that I am a whiny bitch for not agreeing with him.

What I see here are people that keep trying to find excuses for the state this game is in. If they feel that way fine, whatever but I really don’t think people should turn to insults to do so. Then again I don’t expect many people to agree with the sad state this game is in on THIS forums.

I think it’s a bit exaggerated, your level of displeasure with it.

Video games are literally the best form of entertainment for your money. Even a bad game probably more than pays for itself. You go see a movie that lasts 2 hours for the same price as a game, you might spend hundreds of hours playing.

All the hours you’ve spent on the forum, talking about the game are part of that too. They add to the overall enjoyment in the product, or at least one would assume so, if you only had a complaint, gave it then left. I’d think, hey that guy really wasn’t happy with his purchase, I don’t see nearly as many bugs, as often as he does. I’d then think, well maybe he’ll come back in 6 months and get his money’s worth out it.

I don’t think the bugs are as prolific as you but I don’t get a lot of time as Predator so maybe I’m not seeing it. The thing is, you probably have gotten your money’s worth.

I think you’re a part of the community, and that you’re passionate about this game. But maybe some of that passion is blinding you and you’re not seeing it as clearly as you could.
