Wait for a big sale on this one, or not even then.

during gameplay, and you’ll see every bit of distant foliage ripple unnaturally - which seems like something play testers would’ve picked up on several months before release.

The game also suffers from horrible amounts of framerate drops and bugs, as well. While playing, I would constantly get lag while swivelling my camera around, or have my game freeze in the midst of shooting down enemies.

It’s absolutely unacceptable in a multiplayer game, since it’s so easy to get downed in the seconds that the game has been rendered unplayable.

On top of that, the AI in this game is absolutely atrocious, with brain-dead stupid enemies running up to your face to shoot you, or running into walls, or even just… standing there, in the distance.

Hunting Grounds also features a grand total of three (!!!) maps, which is a sad amount for a multiplayer-focused game to launch with. It would help if these maps were diverse, but they’re all sadly set in the jungle - which means that you’ll probably play a few matches before even realising that you’ve moved from one map to the next. We couldn’t even get a city-set map in the vein of Predator 2?

I can’t recommend Predator: Hunting Grounds to anyone but diehard fans of the franchise. This game is an absolute mess with very little to offer, other than the chance to see an iconic ‘80s era villain in the mainstream again. If you’re in for that, you might just have a good time.
