Step One! You Don't.

Step One! You Don't.

Whiffed an attack? GET ♥♥♥♥♥♥!

Used your ability to find them? NOW THEY KNOW WHERE YOU ARE AT! (and what ability you used lol)

Wanna get that sweet wall hack vision? No? Too many armed teens, waiting to ambush? TOO BAD! GET IT OR GAIN A STIGMA ANYWAY BUCKO!

Dang you've been dodging for a solid minute now, surely they need to reload or some- oh never mind, they eventually landed 10% of their ammo pool.

How many times have they healed by now?

NICE JOB YOU HIT SOMEONE! And now you can't chase, because the rest of the discount scooby gang are waiting for you.

Weapon graze your ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ air space? Enjoy the walking speed of a dying snail.

(Take away that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ massive ammo pool, seemingly 00 heals, and ability reveal plz. At the very least, take it off the ability meant to find people lol.)

PS, actual way to play monster, play like a ♥♥♥♥♥ and make sure you have an hour or two to spare, because that's how long its gonna take you to win, by playing monster right. 0 aggression allowed, 100 defensive at all times, unless everyone but one dude is dead. (Also make sure you're practically grinding against your target, or your swipe will miss. have fun)

Pretty sure the lack of fun happens for both sides (still havent played teen yet but have not played this game in awhile anyway) but either monster gets mega boned or curb stomps and for teens either they bone the monster hardcore or everyone splits up like it's solo hide n seek. I was just mostly complaining about how unfun it can be. But I did say in like a comment a couple comments down that I usually don't play 4vs1 type of games anyway so there is also that idk.

worst game ever 12 Nov, 2022 @ 12:27pm

my man is ranting about the monster difficulty but as a teen main i can say that we cannot kill you unless you make a blunder of pushing too far, we ambush you or pinch you. and as far as i played this game i should say that pinches are the rarest simply because not many people play in a team in the first place. playing like a rat as a monster is just not fun for teens, i'd recommend ducking behind every object and running from cover to cover. this is actually skilful and shows that you at least decent and not just playing overdefensively.

yeah, teen mains teaching people how to play the game on the opposite role :/

Unfortunately this isn't all bullshit. Teen is brain dead easy once you figure out the simple trick called teamwork. It's also fun as hell. This doesn't mean monster is impossible to win with, just WAY too easy against teams that don't work together and WAYYYYY too stressful against a cooperative team. That being said I love playing monster but have more fun on teen.

Tbh that is exactly why I haven't played Teen once, I sometimes feel like the monster que players amounts to like uh...10 people? lol. Last time I waited 15 mins and didn't get a match. went to monster, not even 10 seconds later, I got into a match instantly. It's as if I was the only dude playing monster at that time (It was not even a late night either)

Ignore Abby. All the VHS yes men defend the game by saying monster is balanced or easy but seem to ignore that all the complaints is about how unfun and frustrating monster can be.

The declining player numbers and increasing teen queues speak for themselves. No one wants to play monster that much.

lol don't be so mad about it. Aside from evolve, this is like the only other 4vs1 game in this style I have played. Never really been into any asym games. So it's probably my lack of playing this games in general that make it seem more difficult for me. But seriously the game could probably put in some a bit more variety on the long run to make it more fun.

what game are you playing????????? I swear to god you basket cases aren't playing the same game lol you CLEARLY have no idea what your talking about or how to play this game. If you know what you're doing as monster you can 4k every single game with no stigmas lol. Monster is so mind numbingly easy I have seriously never seen an asymm with an easier powerside. Yet, people like you SCREAM at the top of your lungs NON STOP about the imaginary universe where monster is hard. GET. A. GRIP.

Fawxkitteh another thing that should happen with weapons such as the eyeball is that it should not move as fast as it does. if your monster's dash ability is on CD, chances are you will get caught and considering how long and far that eyeball can go, its pretty ridiculous. if they want to keep the distance and duration it can last, decrease the speed. Maybe if it doesn't have that big of a duration time, then the eyeball moving fast would make sense. All in all this game is in weird state where if the teens aren't good, then monster just ends the match as soon as it starts and if the monster aint good, teens will fortnite dance and scream mlg to each other, as they teabag the monster and 180 flip, trickshot, corner back crouch twist turn kick. And if both sides are good, then the match just sorta goes on forever and both sides wait for a micro mistake.

ngl, Mischief. I have not even played survivor once. Too many people are afraid to try out monster lol, so i just take one and go monsta. But that's another good thing to point out. You either curb stomp teens, or teens gag the monster, blindfold them, and push them down a rocky hill. If both are good, its pretty the waiting game. I won't say im a pro at the game at all, since ive only played for 11 hrs or whatever so far, but I do decent in most my games and even win some, but there are times when I just feel like letting myself die, when all the teens are circle jerking each other and will not fire a single thing (up until rift shows up, but that's an entirely different story.) I think it's fun, crying aside, but seriously. That ammo pool is deep.

Fawxkitteh 3 Sep, 2022 @ 3:24am

Oh I agree on decreasing the ammo pool.
And decreasing the crafting time of weapons.
I mean the game is balanced, once you get past that steep skill floor for monster, so if you take something you have to give something.

Similarly, I think the monster ability cooldowns are rather high.
Lower the cooldowns, but make the abilities proportionally weaker.
Then instead of "the eyeball is chasing me and I already used my armor, guess I'm fucked" it'll be "how do I time the activation of this to parry their attack"

These two alone will make the game more back and forth, rather than baaaaaack, wait, wait, wait, fooorth
