The female Predator in Hunting Grounds sucks and is significantly worse than how female Predators are in novels.

[Kalmakov]

Well, a new Hunting Grounds trailer came out today for State of Play and they showed off a new female Predator design. Cool, right?

Wrong. Why? Because female Predators in novelisations are so much damn cooler. This tweet sums it up.


Female Predators are so damn huge and buff that they emmasculate male Predators and make them insecure. Why didn't we get that?

 

[WiZaRdOuS]

You just needed a reason, huh? Lol

 

[Gloam]

OP and that Twitter user might be the only two people on earth to notice this. Kudos.

Unless they're the same person.

 

[Deleted member 50454]

They'd never be that brave.

I will not apologize for my demand of buff lady Predators

 

[Calvinien]

Can we talk about how bad that character design is?

"We want to have a female predator"
'Were the other ones male? I never really thought about predator gender before'
'Yes, they were male. So I'm thinking this one will look just lie them but just have giant tits,'

Nope

I didn't know I was missing out on giant lady predator but yeah now knowing that that sucks

We need more physically larger women in games thanks

No sir. I have a friend who is super in to Predator and he's been blowing my phone up for like an hour. He is not pleased.

 

[Deleted member 22901]

I don't know anything about predator lore but I support you completely OP. the predator lady should be big and scary!!

 

[Akainu]

Because non-cannonical novelisation of the Aliens vs Predator comic. If they ever showed up in a movie maybe things would be different. Hell this is the first i've even heard of the book. It does sound cool however.

 

[dodo]

for the record i would be pro buff predator but it says right there "non-canonical" lol

 

[Umbrella Carp]

Wait a minute....There's a female Predator?

You have my sword OP

 

[Mr. Poolman]

Of course they would try to make a sexy Predator girl... of course.... smh

 

[Bane]

I noticed this as well. It's a bummer this is the route they went.

 

[Brass Body Dave]

As someone who has read a lot of Predator books, I'm also irritated. Felt the same way as how they did Bernie in Gears of War. She was supposed to be as big as a Boomer, but they turned her into a skinny witch instead. I wanted a truck!

 

[Meg Cherry]

It's a pretty lazy design revision, but as the tweet specifies - the other take on female Predators is non-canonical. I wouldn't even expect the dev team to know about them.

 

[Daniel Westlake]

I mean to clarify in this alternate buff lady predator world the lady predator would still be hot.

Theres a bit of the armor missing at the midline.

 

[adumb]

...d-does that predator have tit armor?


I...right. Yeah. Okay then.

I almost expected them to add eyelashes and a red bow.

Predators don't fuck themselves? They aren't Komodo dragons!

 

[Morrigan]

Okay wait

Is that "lady predator" in the tweet real? With the sexy midriff, narrow waist and boobie armour?

Please tell me this is satire...

 

[Kenzodielocke]

It's bad. Just bad.

 

[janusff]

might've been a MP balance reason for it? Bigger character models mean there's more to shoot at.

 

[defaltoption]

Never knew that about female predator, pretty cool. They'll fix it as long as it doesn't ruin the gameplay which it shouldn't, maybe stealth stuff? Fans just have to make enough noise.

 

[plagiarize]

Like... I'm not sure this is a race that suckles.

They're aliens, they could be Parthenogenetic

TIL that Predators are mammals.

Pretty sure even some male predators had armor over a side of their chest.

I have a preponderance of fanfiction that suggests otherwise.

lol Damn, missed my edit.

 

[Ferrs]

That design is so bad holy shit. And I guess they didn't put the other Female Predador design because insecurity is a trait male Predators and gamers share...

 

[LycanXIII]

So they're like Berserkers from Gears.

it's definitely not a good design, but the predator has always worn fishnets

Fair enough, guess I don't remember that. The rest stands, though. That design looks like satire.

There's zero reason for her to have boobs, other than lazy character design.

That's true, but we all know exactly why the female predator is designed the way it is in the trailer.

 

[Blade Wolf]

Well to be fair the male predator pretty much wear the same thing, it's just as stupid.
It's basically just a gender swapped Predator if you look closer.

Predator's armor design always feels a bit weird & sexual to me, this one even have a tine dick armor plate...yeah I wish I can unseen that.

 

[Mr. Poolman]

If it HAD to have breasts, they should have done some weird and unique thing because I don't see the Predators as mammals.

 

[Dola]

I feel pity for developers nowadays.
