I don't know if it'd be the best to try it now or not, I mean you'll find a lot of people playing it right now so you wouldn't have to wait long to play, the problem is, you'll find a lot of people playing right now...

I'll consider getting this DLC but all I really want is the Classic's broken mask and I'm sure I can get it on the crates so I might skip this one and wait for more AVP content

Game kinda bores me. Probably try it out, but it’s unlikely to keep me interested for too long. The AvP stuff would bring me back. I mostly just want more modes. We need a 2v6 and a dedicated bot mode.

I hope they make a bot mode, but to do that they'd have to actually try to make a good AI which might be more work than they can handle, I guess we'll see

They added Wolf, don't even care enough to post a picture. It's the laziest dlc yet... he has no unique weapons and the model has some strange inaccuracies. This game will die soon

Man, that Wolf model is terrible!
Also, they've added Noland's helmet... which is called "Nolan" :p

Went back and tried out the game the other day. There have been some changes, but a lot of shit is still the same. Collision when jumping still sends you straight up into the air to your inevitable death, as Predator.

The night maps are interesting. Makes you really hard to see, until you use any kind of ranged attack.

They apparently redid the Wolf model to be a bit more accurate. Still not entirely sure about it. He really needed to come with the shuriken. What a missed opportunity there. A throwable that can return to you—without having to worry about guiding it—and does less damage than the Combi stick, to balance it out? Would be great.

I’m only playing with AI at the moment, as literally everyone that played this game before has stopped. They’re still on my friends list, but they’ve all moved on. Seeing some of the same YouTubers covering it, but I’m guessing this community took a huge hit.

Of course, you know they added that dipshit Feral mask. With the black paint nearly covering the entire thing, it’s not too bad looking, but it doesn’t particularly fit any of the Predator models in the game, at present. The Beserker Predators maybe.

I’m liking the Bionic Predator. Probably my favorite so far and the only reason I’m even still on the game, after hopping on to see what’s what. The bots have wall hacks and aim hacks, but are so goddamn stupid. Very weird combination. Matches are either boring as hell or next to impossible due to how quickly they target acquisition your ass.

The game it's the worst it's ever been, I have been playing a little bit too, mostly trying to get in predator games since playing as fireteam is permanent easy mode... I seriously can't believe they made it so a single human can kill any predator with a single magazine. Kinda destroys the purpose of 4v1 a little bit :LOL:

Here's the best example of how frustrating this game is

Pretty cool channel BTW, he played as a few builds I've submitted in the comments. He's the best predator player I've seen

He’s pretty good, but my group always took a dump on him. A few times I was actually with them. Most Predators didn’t stand a chance, sadly. The ones that did were straight up hacking. If you’re really crafty though, you can turn a match to your favor. JasonVoorhees was one of the better Predators on the game. We did custom matches all the time and he was hard for most of us to kill, except our resident sniper.

I used to chase down Predators with my Duelist class. If they made it even easier to kill a Predator, it really is flat out fucking stupid. I don’t understand how they think it’s balanced.

The devs much suck at fireteam, so they buffed them until they finally got a predator kill. Now a blind monkey without thumbs can defeat a pred

Yeah, it seems pretty stupid. I’m wondering if being on night maps even helps at all.

Haven’t been using the Bionic Pred the last day or so. I’ve been having too much fun with my Viking that I remade.

With all of the Predators that are out now, I had to start cutting some of my preset loadouts. I never use Valkyrie or the Samurai. So, those two classes will be replaced. Viking already took Valkyrie’s spot. If they add the AvP Elder, he will take Samurai’s place. And Scar will take Viking’s.

They really need to add the Shuriken though, if we get a full on AvP Predator release and not just a bunch of masks.

Almost wondering why they added the Emissary and not the Fugitive? As much as I ragged on his armor design, at least it does fit in a game like this. The Emissary is just overall stupid in nature. For the same reason that the Alpha Predator has a fucking plasma caster. It should be disabled for that class and he should have beefy melee strength and increased speed and bullet resistance, to make up for it.

Doubt it. F13 became very well balanced while they were supporting it. All the changes for the worse most likely come from publisher's management department. Plus this is a Fox property, which is now a Disney property, and published by Sony. Shit's fucked up.

No, night maps are a massive disadvantage for predators, you need to use heat vision to see anything plus cloak, so you don't die in a millisecond. Unless you're playing as one with a lot of energy like City Hunter or Elder it will get annoying having to deal with energy reserves while trying not to die

If they were to make an AvP dlc it'd get me back on the game despite all of its massive issues, but they'd have to add these two masks to make me play it for more than 30 minutes

Emissary and Bionic are garbage no one asked for

I don’t see them adding any other AvP masks except for Scar and the Elder. Hopefully, they do a body for all of them, but it’s unlikely. At least do Scar and Elder.

And the Bionic Predator looks badass. He’s actually loosely based around one of the older comic Predators, correct? That would look terrible in this, so I’m glad we got what we got. It’s been the best non-movie related addition to the game. I use the combi stick and the handheld plasma caster on him—with Stalker, of course.

The fact that he has the best stats in the game and the best energy regeneration makes him easily the best Predator to use. Maybe even too easy. Without any kind of energy reduction or recharge perk, you can be cloaked and using thermal and it still recharges the bar.

I don't know if he's really the best, I heard his stamina is a problem, I didn't bother to look at his stats or anything but it is still fun to watch the "best build" videos. The human side is still the only one with a pay to win build

With AvP is tricky, because its easy to make one model and then barely tweak it to make all 3 main predators. But illfolic has proven to be barely capable of doing their jobs with Wolf, the way they fucked him up shows how incompetent they are but to be fair it might have more to do with external pressure, who knows, they could still produce good dlc but at this point I'd rather get a new game by a different studio

I’d love a new story driven style game. No dialogue, just what we are given to us in the Predator language through audio or the AvP style “translated in real-time” text.

Anyway, Bionic’s stamina is the same as Jungle Hunter, Captured, City Hunter and Hunter. He has max gear, max movement speed and the sixth highest health pool in the game, being tied with Samurai. And I’m pretty sure he has no hidden negative stat, like a few of the Predators do. I think the energy recharge is his only hidden ability though. Can’t really tell if he gets additional melee damage or anything.

To be honest, I play with adrenal rush on most of my builds anyway (seven out of the allotted twelve), because the stamina system sucks absolute dick. The only times I don’t are when using Scout, Valkyrie and Falconer, because they have maxed out stamina pools. Even then, they benefit from the perk. The recharge rate is just absolute dogshit without it.

Also, I’m not sure how they can improve Wolf that much, as he seems to have been tweaked already anyway? Maybe reduce the bulk of the body? The mask still looks off though. Way off. Hence why I am using it with the tank predlocks on Viking. It seems to fit the aesthetic fairly well.
