Greetings all you Predator fans!  In hopes to improve all predators as a whole I would like this to be a space where players can post videos or ask questions that other predator pilots can give advice on.

I expect only supportive comments with a goal educate the community of the predator's potential.  This is the most unique mech with the hardest learning curve and we need all the help we can get.

Also, please see THIS AMAZING GUIDE (steam guide)

I look forward to seeing your videos!

Here is a video of me dueling some of my friends.  I've been working hard this week to get down the EOC Repeater.  I was using the breacher but I feel that the gameplays are miles apart.  I'm only showing matches where I felt like I had the right idea behind the play style.  I know a lot of my errors that I did, but I would like to hear your feedback.  My goal is just to get better and the only way to do that is to be real with my mistakes.



PS sound was removed because I was on teamspeak at the time.

Your eoc pred really endorses a unique pred playstyle.
It's quite thoughtful and much different from the t32 style I conform to.
Really unique and wonky take on a mech already seeped in esoterica, so I love it.

YOU GENTS MUST UNDERSTAND THE FOLLOWING: The pred is not meant to be or to be played like other mechs, it's not underpowerd, it's weapons are pretty strong, and it's the only mech that can perform INSTA-KILLS and that only requires some planning. The range is great, and the cloak is also great, much better than the infil's and has the half of it's cooldown time.

The heat view is the best thing about it, and it's probably the best ability in the game, and with good teamwork, this ability can become the weapon for an easy win.t

I know it's not as good of a fighter mech as the rest, BUT it has much better powers for great team play.

And even fighting wise, there are some crazily good players like Lightangel and Lemental and Epictoy ... so, the rule as aregon said; preds don't need buffs, they're not weak, the just need some skill to pilot them.

Hi, I'm new here, but I've seen Hijinks (I'm his roommate) and a lot of other dedicated Predator pilots put stuff on that guide. c:

Almost everything of the Item and Internal section are written by me.
Alot of the Weapons section was done by me as well.

Hijinks helped as well, and people suggested stuff, too.

The guide was far from being done by one man.

To be honest I don't see what's so unique about it.

But maybe that's because I play EOC R Predator as well.
(I find it normal to play like that, as I do almost the same with my EOC Raider)

I do love you all for helping that guide become what it is today. Thank you to those who contributed or inspired me to write stuff for it. I won't say it's my guide but I did start something amazing you can all share now, so enjoy it!

Sorry about not giving y'all credit.  It wasn't my intention.

But all of you who play pred.  Post some vids.  Show your stuff, so we can all learn.

Your damage wasn't that high for 12 kills.  But that server is no joke, so... I think you approach the pred very different than I do and I can't wait to see a fist person view of it.

My goal for this game was to control some choke points and to aid fights with mines.  There were a few times I didn't look at my radar enough and thus led to my teammate's death (or mine).

Was playing with my fellow BSB members yesterday.
It's not a very good score, but the people in that match weren't bad, so I thought I'd show it.

I play EOC R/P Pred btw.

Well sometimes conversations that I don't want in my videos get into my recordings, so it's ether no sound, or I play some music.  Just mute it.

No.  I'm working on it right now but I will sometimes use the breacher.
