Yea guys,

This is about, your skills/methods/ideas? etc of what makes you the perfect predator?

I.E

What tactics you use or do to stalk your prey etc know what i mean ?
(its simple..lol)

Right well, my most common method i prefer the 'spear gun' just wait for the right moment and combistick to tackle that predalien.


What about you guys ??? your weapon of choice etc ?

I don't think I am perfect by any means but I find the majority of players especially rine/corps just don't have a clue how to fight against Predator players. Their response is usually to complain and insult when they invariably get their behinds kicked instead of trying to adapt and learn. If I had a penny for every time an ignorant player has accused me of hacking after they got trounced because their knowledge of the game is incomplete...blimey.

Today I was using only speargun and remote bombs against a runner player, then a predalien joined the fight, I then used plasma once or something and then they started complaining! noobs.

Yeah I would condone the use of plasma in desparate situations like say where the pred player is beset by multiple opponents and wants to lower the odds quickly, or he's up against a queen. Sure you can make yourself look heroic by taking on the queen with just the combi (as I've had fun doing in the past) but by the time you've worn down their health they'll have no doubt upped their frag count with the tail shot several times.

Aliens in melee > preds in melee.

Also, if I'm up against an ooman and he's using a big weapon that slows him down say, the smartgun, well I'll just throw a disc his way for a nice quick dispatch. Since he's slowed down it's an almost guaranteed kill and a shrewd way to make use of his weakness. But for bigger thrills nothing beats just using the netgun and combistick to beat humans. Though if you've sized them up and they really seem to be expert and are running around with a one-hit-kill railgun, better to be safe than sorry. I'm a big user of the speargun too.

1. Throw mines at feet (except last mine to prevent detonation).
2. Wait for aliens.
3. Jump when aliens pounce towards player.
4. Detonate mines while in mid-air.
5. Profit.

I'm usually a combistick-only hunter.

I tend to always come from above, so snipers won't have much change to get my from far away, except in open maps like compound, where I always use the huts for shielding.

Well, speedhop +good dodging + aim for chest/head is the trick, you just need to practice.

Well man, it requires perfect moves to work...

It takes some time to learn how to confuse 'em...

But after you get the hang of it, you become unstopable.
