I cant find any predators in this game

[fartsballs]

Ive been so around 10 star systems and havent run into any remotely aggressive fauna. Everything is a deer type creature or a poisonous cave plant.

Im reading that post-NEXT, pretty much all creatures are just passive grazers, some that will attack you if provoked but thats it...WTH is that about? It kills the tension and atmosphere of the game. Predatory monsters and manuevering around interesting aliens is apart of the reason I bought the game/

Welcome to NMS where all predators across the universe are on sedatives.

The biggest threat you’ll encounter is game glitches and bugs.

they are those things that make that hissy noise it sounds like a cat or something lol

I've seen animals kill and eat other animals.
I've seen animals that if you attack them from close enough, will turn and attack back.

I guess those are the predators.

Thank you for your money and the support to Hello Games.

Honestly, I am glad they turned off/down the constant predators. It was getting a bit annoying. Previously, they would just wholesale slaughter other creatures in the area and eventually attack you as well. Now they seem to have a more natural behavior of hunting, killing, and eating their kill.

I was also pleasantly surprised when I hunted a baby creature and the mother/bull/largest of the herd came after me. That didn't seem to happen pre-NEXT, but it's fun to see it now.

I was on one of these death planets where it seemed to have a serious hot storm every minute, hostile sentinels too, & you can't do much. I was stuck there for a bit & when I went near one of the larger animals, it attacked me & started chasing me. I had to shoot it dead.

They kinda dumbed down planet variety in general too, no more color variation like before, the grass is either green or orange for the most part, sky most of the time is blue, blue water everywhere and now predator creatures have become pacifist. this update did many things right but took alot of steps backwards..

You're happy they removed features...I just dont understand this logic.

[The Minted Lady]

They didn't remove a feature, they changed NPC behavior. With the previous predators, all they did was attack without rhyme or reason. They would kill another creature, and just move on to attack the next creature. Now, they actually display predatory behavior by attacking and taking the time to eat the creatures. They're not just aggressively killing other NPCs for no reason. My hope is they'll expand on this behavior and include things like herds fighting back, packs of predators hunting together, predators carrying their kills back to dens, etc. The more of these types of natural behaviors they add, the more visiting a planet feels like a safari.

"I cant find any predators in this game"

I'm going to remember this the next time I get wasted by a giant paranoid herbivore. But, yeah, the only creatures that I've run across in Next that always attack me are the horrors that spawn for trying to harvest their eggs.

This game loves extremes... you go from ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ crazy animals that are worse then army of walker sentinels to... everything is peaceful. Enjoy it while it lasts, passive wild life is not going to stay that way for long.

It's bugged. You can walk right up to ANY aggressive, violent, hunter type creature and it will not even acknowledge your presence. It's bugged.

[Mr. Bufferlow]

The preditors will not attack on sight anymore. When you scan the critter, it will have some little comment that confirms it is a preditor. "not afraid to die" is my favorite.

You need to go further to find more dangers. 10 first systems is only part of the beginning, just yellow systems i guess... u need to upgrade the hyperdrive to visit systems of other colors, red, blue, green, purple...

[Trouser_Dune_Worm]

It's bugged. There is a quest in game to kill PREDATORS. The quest says they will show up red on the scanner. Go scan all you want...you will NEVER see a red icon unless its a sentinel or a whipper snapper vine. Neither of which count as PREDATORS. Its bugged.

Submit a ticket so they fix it.
