This setting is tailor-made for asymmetrical mp. I'm not a mp fan, but i'm happy for those who are because this is a dream mp setup.

Why is it "tailer made for asymmetrical" mp?

IamTylerDurden11826d ago (Edited 1826d ago )

Are you a millennial? Have you not seen The Predator with Arnold, Carl Weathers, Jesse Ventura? The entire movie is basically a long asymmetrical mp match. 5 v 1 in the jungle. Spec ops soldiers against the ultimate killing machine. The movie itself is the exact setup for a game. From the specialist soldiers, minigun wielders, knife experts, trackers. Predator has a multitude of combat and stealth abilities that are perfect for a game, and quite frankly, he is perfect as the "1" in a 4 or 5v1.

gangsta_red1826d ago

In all honesty they should take in more ideas from the Robert Rodriguez movie.

Each soldier/mercenary having a unique skill and having three different type of Predators stalking them.

Not mention the predator type dogs as some sort of BR type of storm that makes the soldiers conveign to a specific spot.

If the game is a success I can see them adding Alien DLC!

ElementX1826d ago

Because asymmetric games have worked so well in the past...

IamTylerDurden11826d ago (Edited 1826d ago )

The only asymmetrical failure i can think of is Evolve. Dead by Daylight and Friday The 13th were both enormously successful despite poor reviews, and i would expect a Sony published game to have vastly superior production value. VR has a multitude of good asymmetrical mp games. Playroom VR is a perfect example. There really is no reason to expect this game to fail solely because it's asymmetrical. I'm glad they chose the gameplay that fit the material best rather than simply jumping on the latest bandwagon like Battle Royale. If Battle Royale was the best fit for the material i'd be ok with it, but it's not.

ElementX1826d ago

Did anyone talk about those games a couple months after release? Do people talk about them now? No, they come and go like the seasons. Games like this are fun for a while but player counts drop significantly after a short time

sampsonon1826d ago (Edited 1826d ago )

so you don't like it and it's not even out until 2020? smart

gangsta_red1826d ago

Taken from another post....so I'll leave it here..

I was seriously talking about this not long ago as an idea for a Predator game.

This has a lot of potential if done right but also depends on the players. Hopefully it won't run into the same player type problems that Friday the 13th had. It really ruined a great game.

Reminds me of the Predator event for Ghost Recon. It was...meh. I love predator though.

SamPao1826d ago

why, because of the name and a forest? :D

This was a free PS+ game like 3 years ago.... I liked it but didn't know anyone else playing it. I'm surprised devs are still working on it

just_looken41d ago

Probably a contract deal so many dead games out there have devs working on them.

I mean ea just gave 2042 2 more seasons those poor devs

ChronoJoe41d ago

A lot of people like 2042, it doesn't benefit EA to stop working on it, and I bet the devs are happy doing it too. If you want to feel sorry for any developers it should be based on their working conditions, not to fit whatever agenda of games you don't like.

BISHOP-BRASIL41d ago

I don't necessarily disagree with you, but amid massive layoffs from all sides, saying "poor devs" because they are working on games we don't care about sound a bit out of touch with reality.

just_looken41d ago

@chro

Its not in top 40 most played xbox games despite being free (gamepass) millions have gamepass but has hit over 10k worldwide on steam.

I say poor devs as they are forced to work on this despite they could be working on a new bf game or a whole new idea. Another example is that avengers game or babaloyns fall last year

Poor working conditions is a whole other way to common thing that needs to go but you can have both bad working conditions and a contract to make 5 skins a week that few users will see then 5 years of working on one title you get fired when you try for another job it comes off that you have 0 experience as you worked on one game that entire time.

Cacabunga41d ago (Edited 41d ago )

See, just writing the word exclusive in the title makes the news popular.. who said exclusives didn’t matter??

Never ever heard of this game.. God they try to give it another shot.

56 Metacritic game. I heard it's really not good

DarXyde41d ago

No idea. Haven't played it.

More options are good however.

Elda41d ago

Welcoming an old tired game? LOL!!

Obscure_Observer40d ago

We welcome every game. Old and new.

Christopher40d ago

Look, am I a fan of games going more places? Absolutely. Am I a fan of this game or think others would get a ton of enjoyment out of it? No. But, you know what, if it's your thing, it's your thing. I got my games that suck. Just, hard to be happy that Xbox folk are getting this and maybe not something better.
