I don’t have the ‘87 Jungle Hunter. I do find audio decoy useful, but it won’t fool everyone and certainly not for long. I tend to hate thermal vision in this game, so I prefer having motion sensors. Just gotta be smart where you place them. As for bear traps, I have a few loadouts that use them. Mostly my berserkers.

I have been pissing off Predators left and right. I have the best build in the game, I’m fairly sure of it. I don’t use shit ass snipers for maximum damage though. My build is about being able to give those bitches a fight when they come knocking.

I still go down, but they regret not taking me out first, if they pounce when others are around, because I will light their asses up with the pistol and go in for that knife combo. I wish there was a backstab perk on fireteam. I don’t think they would even get away after quick claiming.

I’ve solo downed a Predator a few times already. The moment they lunge after me I juke the bitch and empty my pistol into them, then equip the knife and go to town. They usually can’t take more than two or three stabs though, in that situation. If they second wind, I try to find where they leap off to. Most of the time though, I lose them.

They really need a 2v8 mode soon. Lot of people are tired of playing as Pred and a lot of people are tired of playing as fireteam. You either stomp as a Predator or you get stomped. There’s no real middle ground and it’s killing the game.

Dear god, I just shit all over this fireteam as Mr Black. I only healed once and it was right on top of them anyway. Claimed all but one, because he quit.

I don’t think this team stood a chance at all. It was at the fishing village part of that one map. Between me leaping out of sight constantly and fucking with them with the net gun and the traps, I don’t think they had a clue what was about to hit them.

I came in like a wrecking ball with that shitty war club. Only one single parry. I don’t know if these people were new or what, but I had fun with the club. I don’t have any builds with the war axe. The only cheap shit I use right now is the disc and bow. That horsecrap instagib Ghost spec with the war axe and fearless is stupid.

The best part about the match was long claiming this fool on a roof while his teammate tried shooting me with m203 rounds. And then, I chased him down and long claimed his ass.


Anyway, here’s what I used:

Berserker with Savage specialization
Weapons - War club, net gun
Gear - Healing kit, bear trap, motion sensor
Perks - Impenetrable, ironside

Playing as a Scout Predator will definitely make you get better at the game. You die so fucking fast it’s ridiculous. You almost can’t do too much as a scout, besides range.

Because of that, I only have three scout builds. One where I’m “undetectable,” one with maximized range damage and one just for fun. The latter one is supposed to be my substitute Elder, until I actually get that bastard unlocked, which I’m only 30 levels away from at this point. So, I’ll be down to two Scouts and two Berserkers.

The Berserker is way more fun to play. I can basically go ham and play smart only when they give real push back. Kinda stupid honestly though. Scout should be way more deadly. Even my silent scout can be easily detected by certain fireteams.

There’s a thing you can do on pc where you turn graphical settings all the way down and it makes the cloak really easy to see. I got “spotted” three or so tree lines away, while I was watching a team sit on an objective and they kept “spotting” me in the trees while I was circling around them...from an entire football field away.

And it’s always PC players that spot you so easily. Always. I’ve leapt above an entire team of ps4 players and stared them down and every single one of them turned to look up at me and couldn’t see shit, because I stopped moving. Yet, I get spotted by pc players while crouched in a tree. Yeah okay, that’s legit.

I love using stupid teammates as bait to exfil. I must look like an asshole, but if you go down because you’re out in the open as we are waiting for the chopper to arrive, then that’s on you. The moment that chopper hovers overhead, I’m popping a flash or two and going in—assuming the Predator isn’t off jacking his dick somewhere else.

By the way, I got one of those Jungle Hunter helmet shaders today. I opened over 100 boxes. It’s my first one out of... god knows how many boxes I’ve opened—at least three or four hundred. Thankfully, I got one of the weekly objectives done and am gonna be moving on to playing as Predator for most of the week.

I can’t wait to shit on all these retards. Good god, watching some of these people play is like watching my grandmother buy groceries. The only thing they’re good for is respawning us after the Pred has picked us off during objectives. It’s a shame they never make it to exfil. :LOL:

I find it sad that no one really uses the parry. As cheesy as it is to abuse, it’s really the only thing keeping good players alive on shitty teams. I mostly use my pistol on the Pred, until he gets close. I hate seeing other people just backstep and sidestep to shoot him, instead of at least trying to put up a fight. He’s on top of you... why are you bothering to shoot at him when half your shit isn’t hitting anyway.

So, I pretty much decimate with my Mr Black build. It’s not even fun, to be quite honest. The build is so good that even with a crutch, using the war club instead of the axe, every fireteam I’ve faced simply CANNOT take me down.

It’s ridiculous. I’ll try my absolute hardest on my scout and get turned into a puddle of mush, but on Berserker... I just shit on all of these people. Granted, they have to actually be fighting me. Some will just book it straight through the mission objectives. That is the one downside to Berserker. He trails behind those teams that are able to fast track the match.

Yeah I've seen some people suggesting a 3 v 16, Predators style, but the whole game needs a serious overhaul to get that to work, I think it'd be pretty fun

No, the way I melee with Predator is I move to the side. More so with the club. The first swing usually misses, making them have to readjust their aim to line up their field of view in my direction. So, they get ONE chance to parry before the unparryable attack comes. That’s very hard for them to do, after I’ve intentionally missed the first swing in most cases.

The war axe makes more sense for Mr Black, since he got killed by a hatchet, but I feel like it’s a bit cheap. Also drains more stamina? Anyway, the club is a bottom tier melee weapon for sure and I ONLY use it on Mr Black, because of how fucking OP I’ve made him. If you shoot the shit out of me while I down someone, I get healed off quick claiming them and with Iron Side, you’re most likely doing far less damage to me. Not to mention, as a Berserker with Impenetrable... I’m already a beast.

I’ve only played with the build a handful of times, but every time I lay these people out. Most just straight up quit. It’s retardedly stupid OP. I almost feel like the claim health should be gauged based on the type of “claim” you do. And Iron Side saves your ass as a Berserker.

I've been interested in the idea of the Jungle Hunter using the City Hunter's arsenal ever since I saw this picture in the DLC that came with the game

I always wanted to re-created it and now I finally can. I made a custom loadout based on this, which is just the JH with the telescoping spear and the smart disc and he's a freaking beast, it's incredibly fun to kill people with those weapons

Some of these I haven't even tested yet

I’m bored as fuck of the game. They really need to fix the rampant bugs right now and also start balancing some of the newer shit.

They rely too much on DLCs, those get old after a couple of weeks this game needs more game modes, it needs some serious new blood for it to run smoothly again

Then again Illfonic proved to be converged so this is a good as it gets with them, all their projects are doomed

Pretty sure the next dlc is the Egyptian Predator from the tapes. After that, it’s almost certainly Fugitive or Serpent.

The whole female Predator gimmick or female commando thing has always been dogshit in this series.

I don’t mind it, if it’s not forced. The whole Isabelle thing is okay. She was just a sniper in the movie and is mostly still that now. The Cleopatra Predator feels a bit too “well, the Jungle Hunter was a man and he was just fucking around, but strong women don’t play with their food.” It’s kinda like they’re saying the women fight dishonorably, but not really.

Oh she's the one from Predators? Well. At least they brought back another returning character.

They try to elevate the female predators above the male ones while belittling the males at the same time. Which can only possibly mean that illfonic is full of SJWs and are a bunch of stupid pieces of shit. If you hear Dutch's tapes you'll know, I bet you can find them on yt

The one good thing about Isabelle being back is that she is back in the present, the original idea of the director was to bring Royce and her back to earth only for them to find themselves surrounded by colonial marines. So because of the distance between earth and their preserve a long time went by, and it's an interesting idea but it's too silly and (((Royce))) is a garbage character

Even the first time I saw Predators, him going hand to hand with the Berserker was ludicrous when he weighs like 150lbs. The 87 Pred nearly killed Arnold when he tried the same thing.

Yeah, Arnold straight up could not make a dent on the Predator and he is pretty much apex homo sapiens, then (((Royce))) shows up and beats a "super" predator with an axe. I genuinely like the idea of melee combat with predators but the way they did it was dumb, the way Falconer went down was more believable
