After playing my first day of just a solid fire team I notice that levels 5 - 20 are really easy for the fire team. I was never even downed until like lvl 14. Predators only started winning occasionally after level 20, usually by ambushing one person with the sword, then rushing the rest of the team down. I noticed that 3v1 is surprisingly very possible. In one 3v1 match, we even killed the predator without any losses. I am at level 27 now so there are more power spikes to come I assume.
Another thing I notice is that PC players have a fairly big advantage compared to PS4 players. I am on PC and routinely get the highest score when I play with other players who are using the console. I think this is maybe obvious, but if you had a whole fire team of PC players vs a PS4 predator its going to be a world of hurt for the predator.
You'll soon notice a shift around level 40 where the entire mechanic of fireteam upper hand vs predator reverse.
Even 4v1 seems unfair for some characters/weapons combination (berzerker + combistick).
Scout has potential if there are no snipers on the map.
And yes the cross play is a bit of a pain.
I never thought PS4 would be a problem at the beginning (kind of the old cliché of PC vs Consoles) but after a few games I've noticed that a Predator on PC (or the opposite an entire fireteam on PC vs a PS4 predator) usually has the upper hand, so I guess there's something going on with controls.
Are the key mapped well for the PS4 and do most people change the sensibility of their controller?
Or maybe it's the connection that is slower but I noticed delays reaction (and little attention to sounds) from PS4 players.
I suppose for the sound it comes to the design of the console that has it in the room on a big TV with high volume while PC players tend to sit closer and use headphones giving much better spatial sense.
