You can really tell who has "stuck around"

My middle name is dangerous ;) loooool

Are you sure? I did not test it aside for how it felt for me in game, and predators are a bit more durable? I know how much I used to need to dumb into predators to wind them, now it feels like it takes more. I use AR and SMG. If you used snipers perhaps those are not as effected? AR/SMG shot multiple bullets and if you decrease damage from each one perhaps it feels differently then from 1 big shot as the sniper.

Yeah we are sure. We test the damage after every patch with AK and Bane, and it still winds in 3.2, 3.3 ish seconds. 0 actual health increase

I guess it was just my mind playing tricks on me. Then what exactly did they buff? Damn I hate the 0 information the devs give.

The “armor” which I feel would have to mean the mask right? But yeah. It would be great if instead of just saying blanket statements, they gave actual ya know. Numbers lol

The line they used “Increased armor of all Predators” does not sound like anything related to predator’s mask.

I was a Predator main. I started playing as FT with a friend of mine (+ 2 randoms). Maaan, I’m a shitty player and still we win most of the matches we play. My friend averages 2k+ damage maybe? I do 1k±… I suck and still I win? The Predator does need buffs! FT is OP! Man, I even learned how to deactivate bombs!!! I’ve done it a few times!

I pretty sure someone else said this but the armor increase may be when you’re in second wind.

Up here comes the solo pc player that thinks he begins to understand the game. Get some friends first then tell us the ft is not op

How about the devs saying it? Would that do? Somebody posted a message from them that said the FT has a slight advantage BEFORE the latest buff/nerf to FT.

Not that I even understand what you just said there has to do with what I’ve said above. Probably nothing.

The devs said what? That ft is op. They can say that all they want there live stream proves other wise. Ft is still strong

As I said before, the devs said that FT has a slight advantage over pred (exact words) before the current buff to pred and nerf to FT.

PS. I don’t even get what the pred buff did since someone who tested it, said he found no change in predator’s durability (that is what we were talking above). We were talking WTF did that buff do since the devs seem to have this aversion of providing any time of information.

What did they nerf? I only saw a change for Field Medic.

I can say the defense buff for the pred is there. I think its only the first 25% of the preds health and the lat 10% before second wind.

And of coarse you will see no noticeable difference if you are just 2 feet away from the pred spraying into it.

In my experience playing the game as the pred with friends who have great aim. A sniper shot at distance while at full health was basically chip damage. Less that 2% health was lost till I dropped down below that 25% mark after that the sniper shots hurt like they normally do. We all know that sound the pred makes when a shot lands. I was able to take three shots with out imp en before I dropped below 50%

Yeah that.

And it needed it. The next thing they need to add is if more than one medic the perk no longer works

Agree, nobody is complaining about it for a rason.
Oh and I’ve said the stacking is the problem a while back and that they should do something about it. 1 is fine, stacking more that can help one another is a big problem.

I’ve felt like I’ve been doing less damage then before but DistubedLlama said he tested it and its no change.

Oh and I found the post with the devs addressing the balance:

All credit to Cadillackid He posted it.

Yeah but how did he test it. Point blank or the pred at a distance. The preds armor buff is definitely there. It would not be evident at point blank tho. Thats just common sense.

No idea, perhaps you can ask him. At a distance I did feel a difference, but I tough its just my imagination.
