Zoom Function for "Long Range Weaponry"

#1

Given the distance the Yautja needs to maintain to face the FT…

Could there be some Zoom additions to certain Long Range weapons?

Sort of like the movies and lore?

Plasma caster? 3 different zooms? Certain fire rates depending on choice of distance?

Bow could have 2 different ones? Move less on further choice of distance?

Throwable weapons don’t need the adjustment. Due to their damage and ability.

Just a thought :)

Its a sorely needed feature that surprises me to this day that it was never included in the start or since during the last two years. Its been a basic ability that Predator gameplay had since the old games like AVP Gold, AVP2, and Predator Concrete Jungle for example.

An advanced biomask that is used to track and hunt prey should always have a zoom function. Hope this update has it but you know, I’m sort of losing hope for such positive changes.

These are a few reasons why I still hold out hope. Other people will not agree on this but that’s okay.

  1. Game was released at basically the start of lockdown.
  2. Studio was small and still is (less than 90 people for the entire studio)
  3. 20th century seems to have (or had after the Thomas bros copyright case) them on a a super tight leash about any speculation or content regarding the future (not illfonics fault). They are simply the developers of the game contracted to make it.
  4. It’s the first Yautja game in over a decade, they know they can’t mess it up. (We’ve had Dutch, a jungle hunter for everyone, Isabelle, super Predators and even the AVP Masks. They know what we want). Even if it’s been rocky. Hell DBD matured after 4 years.

Here’s to hoping :)

If Predators are forever going to use projectile Weapons, give us the ability to zoom in on what we are trying to hit xD

AvP 2010 too has the zoom.
I still can’t believe it’s not in the game.

Without changing a lot in game, they would just add 2x, 6x, 10x zoom modifier to predator ranged weapons. Like FT can modify scopes on their weapons and it stay fixed whole match.
Much better would be to change zoom easily while aiming, as it was in AvP2 for example.

Reduce #2’s numbers by at least 30-50. Illfonic has two other titles they ae working on and putting more priority into.
