Addition of a Predator section

Post by DiscountDan » 13 Oct 2015, 13:58

I'm sorry if this has been requested before (I looked around and didn't see any suggestions for this, but I apologize in advance is there is one), but I personally think having a section on the wiki for Predators would be wonderful. I mean, we already have one for the Xenomorphs and the Marines. Thoughts?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't pred gear and stats supposed to be somewhat secret? The lack of a wiki-page might be intentional.

Eh it isnt really needed.
Preds are a rare encounter,and a gameplay wiki page would just show everyone their tricks and let people find ways to beat them based on the info on the page sometimes.
And as said before....sekrit gear stats

If you mean lore,the xenopedia or such other wiki sites have that
I am Crornel Jrones, grorious admin of Coronial Mahreens. U ar arr nast Trorr and will be ding dong bannu. U critizize Xenos? Ding dong Bannu. U no rike grorious adminnu? Ding dong Bannu. U comrpain about Marine nerfs? Dingdong bannu. U comprain about grorrious adminnu? O yoo betta bereev dat's a bannu. It has come to my Grorrious attention dat nasty trorr has been imidatingu me on serveru, dis is a shamfrul dispray and unacceptaboo so dey ding dong bannu.

This can be left out, with the wiki page mainly detailing a quick overview of their lore, their primary weapons with descriptions, and their code of honour, along with a picture of a Yautja for reference sake. You wouldn't get much more off the Colonial Marines wiki than you could on the Xenopedia.
Long live our Soviet motherland,
Built by the people's mighty hand.
Long live our people, united and free.
Strong in our friendship tried by fire.
Long may our crimson flag inspire,
Shining in glory for all men to see.

wiki/Yautja

Here, register and add to it. I've got the basics done.

there was a reason that I was told to remove my Yautja forum entry about weapons and armaments that they had in it, maybe if the wiki just includes lore though and nothing else, even then that is ruining it for some players.

Lore is one thing, but I'm fairly certain that the equipment isn't supposed to be listed as stated above.
Lennox Clarke- Corporate Asshole or Duty-bound Officer depending on the role.
Manley Maclagan- hot shot pilot, spec, or grunt.

What I suggest would be secret forum post or some kind of locked page that only whitelisted people have access to and can open. If that is doable of course to make life of newb preddies easier.

This is a good reason, and I'm hesitant to make it public, too. Perhaps a 'Predator Tutorial' verb that shows how to get started.

Most of the time if a Marine or xeno gets to know the gear of a predator its too late to tell anyone formally about it.

That would be an excellent addition.

On my first hunt I didn't look through my verbs until after I teleported down....Aaaaand you may guess why I facepalmed and tried to find a way to get back to the ship.

Because with the wiki it will be 10 times easier to find out.
It won't ever be impossible to find out. We just don't want to make it easy and certainly not as easy as a google/wiki search.
