Thank you based key resellers.

>>344486067
When both the hunters suck and the monster suck, hunters win every time.
When both sides are decent, monster wins.
When both sides are actually good, it can go either way.
There is legitimately zero way to beat a well coordinated premade Hunter team who don't suck though. Zero.
The caveat to this is, If the monster is good but only 3 people on the Hunter team are good the Monster is going to stomp them because you can't carry a retard once the monster gets to stage 2. All in all it's surprisingly balanced for being so asymmetrical. Not perfect, but adequate.
>>
Having a good time with it, definitely worth a play now it's gone free.
>>
It's fucking impossible to play/win as Monster unless you're pro-tier or hunters are pure shit (the latter being quite likely right now). Also can't play stealthy as monster, and escaping/fleeing is tough too, for the hunters as well actually.
Aside from the game, the store and options are kinda shit but at least it's not too difficult to unlock stuff (borderline p2win with the perks though.)

>>344485827
Support is bro-tier, low-pressure, and attracts the least attention from the monster. Trappers are pretty similar to this too now that the dome has been changed.

Question though, what determines how long the arena stays up now? Sometimes it seems to stay up forever, other times it only lasts a few seconds even if the hunters don't get downed?

How am I supposed to stay alive as medic? The monster just pounds me, constantly, over and over like a fucktoy until I'm dead the second we lock it down.

>>
>>344486925
>what determines how long the arena stays up now?

It's 5 minutes, every time a Hunter is downed the time is reduced by 3 minutes. It also drops when the Monster loses 25% of its actual HP HP.

Abuse your Jetpack. The biggest advantage Hunters have over the monster in direct combat is that they can shoot while using their Jetpack to jump up on cliffs, but the Monster can't attack while it climbs. Go up, when the Monster followers, Jet to another elevated position, and so on. It also really helps if your team has a Support that isn't completely retarded. The support is meant to peel for you.

As a F2P game it's fun! unfortunately it has that same fading luster as Battlefront EA did. It's cool at first and you can't wait to see all the weapons and locations and play all the things.

And then you play all the things and there's nothing left. Each week they rotate 4 hunters and one monster and I think they rotate the maps as well. So unless you spend keys on hunters or monsters you're always confined to just 5 possible characters. Plus the one hunter and one monster you get from doing the tutorial.

In order to get new monsters and hunters and shit, you must play the game to get silver keys. Being a launch weekend, TRS has graciously given us double keys for the whole weekend! Unfortunately, double keys is still a measely rate of earning; when you completely dominate a game and bust out some crazy fucking stats for a twenty minute game, you'll get like, 100 keys, maybe 200 or 300 if you complete some challenges while in game (which, by the way, those challenges are ONE-TIME PAY-OUTS. If you get a bonus for winning 5 games in a row, then lose, you won't get another bonus for winning five gams in a row). Average Hunter is something like 5 or 6 grand, most expensive I think is 8000. Most expensive monster is 9000 I think. So to get the good hunters or the most OP monsters (more on that in a moment) you need to play a healthy number of games with the measely content you are given.

As for the monsters themselves. If you are pubbing, monster almost always wins. If you have a premade, hunters almost always win. There's no middle ground. Also, Gorgon, Kraken, and Wraith are practically guaranteed wins. The balance is totally fucked. The only fun games are against Goliaths.

Play it while the population is booming and while the novelty is still there, because it'll fade fast. For the moment, I am still having moderate amounts of fun.

Healing as EMET is a nightmare though. No one understand they need to be close to you or the grenades to be healed.

>>344490452
I think he is meant to act like a 2nd Assault. His turrets can do good damage but its not reliable because the damage is position based. You also need to hit alot of your rockets on point to make it worth.

Whereas with, lets say hank, you can shield an assault to let him deal reliable damage or a healer so s/he can self-heal while shielded.

Bucket is pretty much redundant, which is unfortunate.

They fucked the "founders" with this and removed all their paid content, then gave them about 30 minutes work worth of in game currency/XP as a way to say sorry. In a few months they'll release a unique skin for each monster/hunter that'll just be a palette swap instead of a brand new model, and call it a day

You were playing a shitty wraith; probably some new player that looked up "how to play Op monsters" on youtube and just used those two moves over and over because they lacked knowledge of how to actually play the game.

In truth, playing against wraith, just bend over. 99% you'll lose in the end, just get the game over with so you can move on. Her traverse rate is fucking ridiculous, her damage is fucking ridiculous, all of her abilities are absolute killers. She's just really fucking good, and she's been complained about since the game made retail release.

They still haven't been able to fix her to be fair, so take that as a hint of how good their balancing department is.

What are you talking about?

I reinstalled for the first time in months and all the hunters and monsters I had unlocked are there and ready to play
>>
>>344490579
You don't. Even if you do shoot it it'll just instantly teleport halfway across the map and continue to do so until it's level 3, and when that happens, you better be near the generator, because if you aren't it'll destroy it before you can even get close to it. The only winning move against the wraith is to quit.
>>
How do you beat Gorgon? That things movement is insane.
>>
>>344490809
Wait are the starter characters more expensive or something?

I have those characters from founders. All season pass 1 and 2 characters are 5.5k for me, and the Gorgon was 6.5k.
>>
Wraith is most fun against bads, as soon as the planet scan wears off I double back behind them and abduct the slowest one. Half the time they die by the time the dome goes up. That said the game gets boring after 8 hours

>im not trapped in here with you you're locked in here with me!

You get to keep all the original characters, and any DLC you bought, skins or characters, you also get all those skins from the "PLEASE PLAY OUR GAME" weekends

>>344491402
Gorgon is another case of broken balance, which I think it's a by-product of their hunter rotation system. The free hunters for this week are just BAD against Gorgon, so Gorgon wrecks nearly all the time.

Her acid Spit and Web blast thing are the only two useful skills she has. The spider bomb thing is a nice distraction but it's not worth putting points into before you've maxed out acid spit and spider web thing.

The spit can down a hunter from full health stupidly fast. The web has a shitton of push back and a respectable amount of damage. And you're rate, her traversal is fucking insane. She covers more ground than the wraith, which means engagements happen when the Gorgon wants them to happen. If the gorgon player has even a modicum of intelligence, you won't catch her until she's level 3. If you're REALLY lucky, you'll force her into one engagement when she's level 2 then the dome drops and you won't see her again until she wants you to.

Kraken is fucked for the time being because the two assaults you have access to both have measely ranged options. Markov's AR only does 18 dmg per hit and Hyde's chaingun does like, 19 or something. So you're primary damage dealers are forced to use their worse weapons because the Krakan is in the air 99% of the time and nowhere near close enough for the flamethrower or electro-gun.

Not only that, but there's always the chance the free hunters for the week are just bad. Hank is absolutely awful, even moreso against a kraken because his orbital bombardment becomes useless. Hyde is basically a worse version of Markov. Caira's heal grenade launcher actually takes some amount of aiming skill to use, and runs out of utility quick unless your team is all bunched up, which they often aren't because it's a death sentence. And the Trapper for the week is only useful for his tracking darts. That's it. This week's hunters are garbage.
>>
>>344491468
I never had the game at release so I don't know which characters are season pass 1 or 2 characters. All I know is some hunters are 5k, some are 8k, there's one that's like 3k.

Gorgon is 6.5k, you got that right. But Wraith, and Kraken are VERY expensive compared to what you earn per game.

I can understand why this game failed as hard as it did, it wasn't just the insane DLC policy, the fucking thing is so goddamn boring, ever since I got a monster that was a bit more agile I only ever encounter the hunters when I'm level 3 already and for a hunter to even get to the monster its another tedios bullshit because you have to hope that the player fucks up for you to even get near him and the combat is incredibly unbalance, as soon as the medic is taken down you can just mow down everyone
else

so all of the standard /v/ faggotry aside what the fuck is up with this game. I'm trying it out on training and every time I kill someone I turn around to slap someone elses shit and the other person is immediately revived! do I have to sit on this fucker until hes super dead or can I drag his corpse? seriously I'm getting raped by the computer while killing them at the same time
>>
>>344498694
There's a healer that can quickly revive, and other teammates can "Hold F" to get others up.
>>
>>344498796
from what I can tell I killed the healer, how am I not strong enough to make them think twice about reviving their team. I just walk back up to them and start slapping their shit and they still get back up.
>>
>>344498961
You know a downed teammate also has a health bar right? It's constantly on the down before they officially die, but you can cut it short ever faster if you keep attacking them while they're down.
>>
this game is fun as fuck, holy shit I'm glad they rebalanced it.
>>
>>344498694
The skull that appears in place of their health when you down them is a second health bar. When it empties they die, when it fills get the back up. If they die they can respawn after 120 seconds.
As a Monster you want to down them then get them to 50% and leave them. That way it's hard for their teammates to get them up, and they can't respawn and fuck you.
>>
>>344492821
LENNOX IS GOD MODE. Lance the fuck out of any monster and win. Except the piece of shit wraith, who will kill everyone before you do.
>>
>monster stealth isn't fair to stupid players, take it out of the game!
Ho-lee fuck.

So what, are you just supposed to haul ass constantly since the hunters know your rough location at all times now?
>>
>>344499514
Yes. Take speed or Traversal perks, be sanic. Bait them into doming you once you're ready to evolve to stage 2. Down a hunter then haul ass and evolve while the dome is on cooldown. Eat to full armor then fuck them up in stage 2, or repeat and go to stage 3.

Lennox will fuck you up if you're Goliath though.

So with orbital tracker/smaller maps is there any reason to use monster stealth?

Got 3 movement speed boosts and I'm on a 10 game win streak, the only time I lost was when I tried to be stealthy

Use feeding speed perks over movement, you already have enough movement on MG

I bought a key for $10 and now I have all these characters I want to try

Behemoth seems kinda shit, he's cool that he can get around so fast but in combat he's not mobile at all so you can't dodge gunfire well

Bought Wraith and Gorgon, they're both really fun. Is Behemoth worth getting, or should I start saving for hunters and perks?

>>344502484
there's only so many times I can jetpack dodge away from it when i'm locked in the arena. once i'm out i'm nothing more than a punching bag, and once i'm down he can just graze through the rest of the team like nothing.

>>344502965
How is eating speed better?

To be clear I am having no trouble as monster, I've only ever lost once

It gives you a faster feeding route overall than movement speed would and lets you recover armor faster from feeding if you do get rekt.

Maybe it's more fun in short burst rounds (like Overwatch) but it's not nearly as satisfying as a 20 minute match of yelling to each of your team members that you think you might have found the monster in the other side of the map but actually he was behind you in a bush...

She's okay. The only good thing about her is the whip but that's strong enough to make the monster want to come after you. Leap is alright and the autocannon is pretty bad
She's not too good against a wraith though. Clones make it too hard to keep a multiplier or get its attention

What is the basic game plan for the monster? Run around eating stuff, if they trap you, you fight until the dome wears off, eat a little more, get stage 3, then what? you go for the relay but you just hit it and ignore the hunters or you kill them first?

Felt that way. I am whipping the piss out of monsters now unless they are directly attacking me. Which is the godamn point.

Evolve failed harder but wasn't necessarily cucked. It was just awful and nobody wanted to play it. Battleborn was totally cucked by Overwatch.

Evolve asked a girl out and was laughed at because he was 5 feet tall, roughly spherical, and smelled faintly of cum.

Battleborn asked a girl out, went on dates with her, moved in with her, and then one night came home from work early to find Overwatch balls deep in her.

Webslinging is objectively worse than Goliath leap. I tried sticking to walls. It just didn't work, anywhere high enough to be out of line of sight just wasn't stickable. Maybe it was just the map, but it's a real pain.

Shorter range Goliath Fire breathe.

Legit but you need to find a wall you can actually stick to first.

Gorgon isn't good unless they make it possible to stick to more walls, and higher.

With Goliath, I feel like I'm constantly struggling to stay just one step ahead of the hunters. With Gorgon, I'm comfortably ahead of them at all times.

Try focusing on increased feeding speed. The less time you spend eating, the more time you spend moving.
>>
>>344522409
Yeah, you're using the wrong perks. For Goliath, get the +Feeding Speed + Movement speed, then get the silver version of that perk, then get the Gold +15% movement speed perk. It totals to around 160% movement speed and +120% feeding speed, and this benefits your Leap, since Leap is based on momentum. You just RUN, no stealth, just be sanic.
