6/10/2023 0 Comments Arcadegeddon matchmaking![]() ![]() Predator: Hunting Grounds is by no means an ugly game, and it is very much on par with other similarly priced titles in the AA market I, however, would have liked to see a greater emphasis on lighting effects and ambient audio. Predator: Hunting Grounds has decent graphics and utilizes the unreal engine well, however many of the Fireteam and human NPCs (except for movie likenesses) look a bit muddy, perhaps this is a result of a certain aesthetic that the developers were after, but I would have personally prefered sharper visuals where possible. While this is not pay-2-win due to the asymmetrical nature of the game and how much attention was given to balancing weapons, it walks close to the line, and IllFonic needs to be very careful about going any further in this direction. Predator: Hunting Grounds is not pay-2-win however, DLC characters do have early unlocks of their signature weapons, which in some cases can make the game easier for new players, such as Dutch having instant access to a minigun and grenade launcher, which base classes would need to unlock via gameplay. Players, however, can purchase DLC characters modelled after characters from the franchise, such as Dante, Dutch and Isabelle, and various Predators created for the title, such as Samurai Predator and Viking Predator. Predator: Hunting Grounds does not have a cash shop, and all skins and cosmetic items are earned via in-game currency and acquired via RNG lootboxes purchased with that currency, which is incredibly easy to come by, with each daily awarding enough currency for ten crates, and weekly quests awarding currency equal to 50 crates, this is in addition to most players being able to unlock 1-3 crates after each match. PC: Hardware dependant, supports uncapped FPS and cinematic settings.Playstation 5: 4K/60FPS cinematic graphic settings.Playstation 4 Pro: 1080p/60FPS epic graphic settings.Playstation 4 : 1080p/30FPS medium graphic settings. ![]() Performance.Īpart from the occasional networking issues inherent with a crossplay, I have experienced very few performance issues while playing Predator: Hunting Grounds. Predator: Hunting Grounds has a loyal but not very communicative community, and it seems almost every player opts to play without a mic and makes no effort to communicate with the team, while you will see the occasional game emote prompting players to “stick together” or “get to the choppa” for the most part Predator: Hunting Grounds is a singleplayer game which is played with others.ĭespite their reluctance to work as a team in all other areas, the resurrecting downed is more common in Predator: Hunting Grounds than in most games, as all but the most narcissistic players know that strength is in numbers, and the more remaining fireteam members at the end of a match, the greater the chances of a safe extraction. This should incentivize fireteam members to play tactically and engage in melee kills whenever possible however, this is seldom possible when playing with random players, who seem determined to fire off every round in their arsenal at the first glimpse of enemy movement. Randomized Objectives.Īs an asymmetrical PvPvE title, Predator and Fireteam members have separate objectives, with the former being to kill every member of the Fireteam and the latter to complete a series of randomly generated objectives at various locations across the map while doing battle with NPC operatives and doing their best not to be killed and dismembered by the Predator.Įditor’s Comment: Just like in the Predator movies, using explosives and firearms will draw the Predator’s attention by making fireteam members more visible to the Predator when using thermal imaging. While there are much better (and cheaper) asymmetrical multiplayer games on the market, for fans of the Predator franchise, there is no better option currently available.
