Predator Multiplayer Strategies

The Predator should find the highest point within a room, check the ceiling for Aliens, and then whip out the spear gun, cloak, and enter zoom mode. Once you're in zoom mode you should monitor any doorways within the room and proceed to pick off every enemy that carelessly walks through the doorway. If you're well-hidden they'll never figure out which direction the killing blow came from, allowing you plenty of breathing room to proceed with the same strategy. Don't press your luck, though. Sooner or later the enemy will wise up and figure out a way to take you out. Always keep on the move and don't wear out your Sniping locations.

The Predator should avoid close combat at all cost. If you happen to find yourself in such a predicament then you should unleash your wrist blade and cleave through the enemy as soon as possible. With a little luck you'll decapitate your opponent before their weaponry has the chance to tear you in half.

When spotting a gaggle of Marines or Aliens, sniping will do you no good. What you should use now is either a well placed disc toss that will cleave through all of the opposition or pelt the ground with energy blasts and electrocute everyone in attendance. Either of these attacks will drain some energy, so take the time to replenish your supplies before moving on to the next confrontation.

The Predator has three vision modes for a reason; they need to be used if the Predator is to reach his potential. Quickly toggle to the vision mode that relates to the target in question and unleash a disc, mowing down the opposition with ease. If you're not using your vision modes then you're playing at half your capability. Why handicap yourself?
