If the purpose is just fishing for wallbangs, I’d rather have more bullets with better penetration and damage retention than base long ammo.
Or is it not working rn?
with avto, if they get the walbang, chances are good they're getting more than one wallbang in the same burst
dont tab out
jsut let it go
Reconnecting in this game has always been a fickle thing
either it works right away or it doesnt
Oh, ok, I'll try that
if it takes longer than like 2 minutes, alt f4 and restart
anyway i don't care all that much about avto specifics. yes it is a silly weapon. I just don't feel like it fits the shooting style of the game
shame they sold skins for it imho. if it was removed i wouldn't mind
I mean, it’s not bad for that purpose but I just think there are better options than making your loadout do one thing really well at the expense of crippling it for literally any other purpose.
it worked thanks!
i don't feel like i'm in anywhere near as much danger with someone levering FMJ at the building i'm in as if an avto is spraying it
I really like that the Avto is in the game because it fits into that Bomb Lance category of “You made fucking what?” and I want to see more wild engineering like that.
eh not bomblance territory at all imho. it's just an AK47 in disguise
I’m the opposite. The Avto shoots fast but there’s usually a safe spot in the interior where I can stand and have minimal concern about getting hit. The FMJ is going to go through the whole damn building.
schmyeh. it is what it is. Crytek very rarely asks me personally for balancing decisions
devil wildland fmj is kind of unarguably stronger
the most oppressive thing about Hunt is me being shit at it on the regular anyway
i wouldn't bet on me just because i had an avto or a wildland
yo i been listening to this band for a week straight now... just to find out its an "ai-assisted led by human direction"... god that sucks and an instant turnoff, bc the songs are fucking banger
the thing that sucks, is i will continue to listen to them
but wow, i never really felt terrified by AI before, but they sound better than most bands out there xD
Elegant is welcoming our new robot overlords. first up against the wall imho
Loved me then-Bleeding Verse
is a fucking amazing song, and i dont hate it after learning its ai
surely they're just apeing an existing sound some human or other is making
i mean, idk how the ai gen music works entirely as ive neevr tried it
but like... sure?
Why do they have locked extracts on the legend if the locked ones are just gonna use the regular icon
same as LLM in the sense that it is just a predictive engine trained on human output. it can't really create anything actually new. just variations on themes it's been trained on
locked ones appearing unlocked is a glitch, had an issue earlier where only middle appeared locked
i suppose in tht specific case a human is tweaking AI generation nobs to get sounds closer to what they want
anyway would be surprised if there wasn't someone out there making very similar sounding music. which doesn't mean you'll like it just as much
the lines get blurry when you're talking about DAW based music creation anyway
i like the emo darker metal, so if its AI then it just means its a sound im accustomed to liking lmao
at least, thats how im gonna see it
it's a complicated kettle of penguins really. vaguely interesting as a subject but also decidedly not hunt related
I have committed many off topic crimes admittedly
Can enemy players hear tarot cards going off?
but the subject of AI in creative endevours is just.. broad, and complex, and thinking about it more just makes me want to give up on the subject
I don't think cards have an associated sound cue unless the thing they do does
but i could be wrong
anyone got good sniping guides
Stay far. Click heads. Run fast
- A guide by Heathen
The scope reticle helps with bullet drop
If at first you don't hit, raise reticule slighly. rinse repeat. Find your favourite bush. Name it. Develop weird codependant relationship
If close it sounds like spiders and glass
Gotcha, slowly crouch walk on guys with my romero
aim center mass
Can't tell if I'm alone in this lobby or everyone else is just super slow
it's usually the latter
at the moment the most interesting objective on the map is the lair anyway, not the bosses
32m left in the game, I'm still the oinly one at the boss
Did you wait for other players
Saw nothing
Nothing like accidentally detonating a shoke beetle on yourself instead of exiting it
lobbies currently go > everyone directly to Lair > bosses are afterthought for the winners
how long does choke from beetles last lmao
idk. like 30s?
I never use it
Beatle trees are dead to me now
facts
I only used them when they provided offensive beetles
Am I the only person who used beetles for surveillance?
how else am I supposed to restock my beetles now midgame
huh
😾
choke beetles don't pack the same punch
That's the fun part, you don't!
Like I've not heard a single thing this entire game
chokes are still useful it's just pretty situational i guess
26m left im just gonna go beat the boss up
I bet when you check the mission info you were far from alone
I would've just killed boss immediately
Tap dark sight constantly
While breakdancing with the boss
That's where they getcha
I find doing bosses pretty tedious but i guess its better than sitting around doing nothing
Ban cheaters Holy fuck
6k hours 4.5 kd lmao
the cloud or the coughing status
crytek do not give a fuck about cheaters
we reported one through the website and he got banned . . . for 2 days
Cloud, the cough is 15 seconds I think
crytek does indeed give a fuck about cheaters. the fact that any exist does not indicate a lack of care about the subject
Lmao
Bffr
God what is with you people
a shot load of hours played, dozens of pages of hackusations and a 2 day ban
youuuuu peopleeee
This is a problem in high mmr
this guy 160m plus headshot us thorugh multiple walls, was recorded and a 2 day fucking ban
Yeah this guy had 173 pages
Yeah bro they are dealing with it
And we trust people who rage comment?
I always suspected
Im ass and I get cheater comments
crytek did ban the guy, we had proof we recorded it but they only banned for 2 days is the point
Real
173 pages though? Sure buddy
I'm more ass
and also he had a crap load of pages of hackusations so he MUST of had loads of reports
2 days is dumb. I won't argue that. if there is proof, permaban seems obvs
173 pages of rage
crytek do not care about cheating at all
could be banned for other reasons like toxicity
Insta dome off spawn with bornie hv is so much skill
no the thing worse than cheaters is people who don't understand the term bootlicker
I bet you see a 1k old vac ban and instantly go to comment huh
yes
there are like fine we will slap this fella on the wrist and maybe in the next few thousand hours we will give him a longer ban
I never said he wasnt cheatinf
But going off of comments is mad goof material
i watched a lot of people get banned, most of my reports went through, theyre not fast at catching the "good" ones that just closet wall though
some reports took a few months but you get the idea, obvious cheaters are gone quick
hard for the closets, and most are just pretty good
no they are not
And when ya get frustrated in an online convo you get yourself muted and "you win"
Gratz buddy
Cool bro
obvious cheaters get banned for 2 days after 1k-2k hours
Not muted tho, I'm ending this convo it's going no where
Someone grew a pair, glad to see man
who knows, maybe he is getting away with cheating
where was it ever going to go? do you think you're talking to john crytek?
so whats in the lair
If you would like to report a player, you can do so on the Team Details tab in your Last Mission section on the home page. Select the player -> Open Profile -> Report. It is also accessible in the Last Match tab at any time. If you have additional proof you would like to provide, you can find out how to reach out to official support here: #customer-support
**Please note that you can still report people even if you don't have their SteamID or cannot open their profile by providing your own SteamID, time of the incident with a time zone and region on the Hunt Showdown website (link is in the in the Customer Support channel). **
**Hiding statistics/profiles does not prevent reporting. **
its pointless
Ahh gotcha thanks!
If you don't report cheaters then that's your problem really
Crytek takes a very VERY soft approach to cheating
With an attitude like that its no wonder why hunt is infested with cheaters
WE DID AND THEY BANNED HIM FOR 2 DAYS
2 DAYS
Cheating is perma ban
what is the point
I'm sure they could do better
Not always
No its not
Exploit is varying degrees
but.. you know. the point of ranting about cheaters here is ranting. it's not going to fix anything.
they banned his account for wall hack cheating for 2 days. then his play time starting going up again
this isn't the "things we will fix if you rant about them enough" place
It's likely multiple people reported him and so he was issued a temp ban as they looked into it
They told you the reason for ban?
It's likely he'll get a perma ban once they have a chance to look at his case
his account got a VAC Ban. it was not a temp ban
i think they're making assumptions about the reason for the ban based on their experience
Crytek doesn't use vac
There was ONE other player in that match. I can only assume they died early.
aka the usual wallsy heatshot thing
How would it get a vac if hunt doesn't go through that?
maybe they never really lived?
Hunt doesnt use VAC.
People need to learn what vac is
well the same time he got banned from crytek was the same time his account got a vac ban
Sometimes it is just simple like that
Its VALVE anti cheat
Vac is valve, nothing to do with hunt
Just bc hunt is on steam doesn't mean they adhere to vac
either way, when you report an account for cheating through the website you get a reply to learn that the person you reported was banned
VAC, EAC, BE. Those are the 3 most used anticheats. Hunt uses EAC
Scrappy is literally broken.
we kept an eye on the account and after 2 days he stared gaining more hours on hunt
Yes. They don't say why. Maybe he was derendering?
Actually it is also a service that is used in non-valve games ☝️🤓
That said, not in Hunt.
for what it is worth (nothing) I'm in camp "just delete anyone found doing any form of cheating with any concrete proof" camp.
Game says EAC when you launch it so good start
Yeye
I wish we could fully see details of a game in hunt
Not against that tbh
I wanna know if this guy died early.
I hate exploiters
Where was he that entire time
anything that indicates you're fine with an unfair advantage. deleted. no more bayou for you.
High mmr was infested for many years of exploiting
Even had servers where they shared exploits
alright Ratcha, "exploiting isnt cheating" attitude here
I knew I heard someone
10% left on the banishment I thought I heard someone meleeing grunts to death outside
now its infested with people cheating
its gotten worse
I just agreed they should be prrma ban bro 😭
banish finishes, I grab the token and look around and I see nothing
You're impossible
I think he died right outside to a grunt or something 
there is a seperate word for it because there is a meaningful difference
Its also gotten much worse since they removed the Ping restiction that wasnt "working" apperntly
I didn't hear the death noise but I was right next to the banish so I may have missed it
Ok you lost me at ping
but now it all makes sense
but i'm still in "ban cheaters and exploiters" camp. There is more grey area in exploiting though
Should I get banned because I play on eu with 50 ping cause I can play RU with 20ms
not really, you no its wrong and you know you shouldnt be doing it. its one thing to come accross it by mistake another thing to try and keep doing it
how about asia to EU
some people discover an exploit, do it a few times until they're sure of how it works then report it themselves. that's cool with me. no ban for them.
if that could be restricted that would be awesome
100% agree
you find an exploit, test it a couple of times to be sure and report it, give that man some BB's
but yes if you're just using the brains out of it with the "lol it's not cheating bro" excuse. ban.
Got 13 points from that game, what perks should I nab do yall think? I basically got everything I'm happy with.
Oh, not the “ping abuse” myth topic again
surefoot
Dauntless
😭
yeah i am not even engaging with the latency issue which is usually a dogwhistle for "those guys"
I’m going to eep
has anyone felt like the game performance has fallen since the first 2 days of the event?
why surefoot? I'm not exactly running around with molitovs lmao
You should be banned for being a silly little goober uwu
I keep running across someone in duos that I'm 90% shure is cheating, tell them to knock it off
I think generally too much leeway is given to cheaters. I wish it was easier to do the whole tieing-real-world-identity-to-games thing without the terrifying dystopian dictatorship angle coming into play
I would love to ban cheaters from gaming for life
maybe there is a 1st offense just = long ban second = life angle.
in any game, not the same one.
I find it infuriating that dipshits are able to ruin online gaming so much for so many people with relative impugnity
you know why i think
Wait till you see how bad it gets in OCE
it's one of those "don't say that" things
not in my experience
is in mine
i've encountered cheaters in oce maybe 2 or 3 times in my entire playtime
My games have been great and full of people
It's either 1 person or no one else in a lobby, or a squad of mr 1200m shot through terrain
and by that I mean, overt cheaters. The venn diagram of very good players and people with walls who are careful is nearly impossible to disect
yeah again, so rare i actualy remember every time it's happened
The cheaters are rarer than empty lobbies sure
With how much different countries govern their citizens I'm not really seeing this as a good solution
but they're not rare enough to be forgettable, in fact they're common enough that you can't remember individual cases sometimes
yeah i know. it is an unsolvable problem currently really. which is a shame
well i am saying my experience is the opposite of that
to the point where i can even remember the distance to the killer
768m
silenced nagant at spawn 2 seconds into match
I have not had any issues with cheaters
and my memory is generally terrible
You OCE?
NA
why is it always the silenced nagant.
You're cheating, who cares if other people hear you shoot them lmao
I have no idea. for the lols? maybe it's just the default weapon for whatever the hack is. idk. it was years ago anyway
US W right now
we're mostly talking about OCE
idk. there are people who are convinced nearly all good game streamers are running cheats on their secret 3rd, 4th or 5th monitor. can't really reason people out of a position they didn't reason themselves into
oh people are absolutely convinced cheaters almost entirely come from certain regions
Interesting
13 points, what traits should I get?
surefoot. dauntless
Fan the big pistols
We're near a well known cheating hub. :(
oh surefoot works on medkits, how did I miss that. Yeah thats actually worth
it works on so many things it's almost obligatory imho
It looks like they've optimized something in the game. It's running four times faster and has gained 10% fps.
throwables, heals, all consumables. spear. it's great
4x = 10% apparently
I mean lotta people in here convinced the exact opposite is true. fair to say the variability in PC hardware + people level of knowledge wrt: what may or may not be a problem with the game rather than their setup confounds things a lot there.
I have noticed that using a scope massively tanks my FPS sometimes tho
when we don't know everything we humans are far too prone to just filling in the gaps with whatever suits us rather than just admitting we don't know
and I don't know why, Like it's not even a clean halving as you'd expect from a PIP scope. It plummets.
scopes are kinda notorious for that in games though
i just don't use em so it's not a problem i ever have to deal with
1 - The game starts up 4 times faster.
2 - The frame rate DURING GAMEPLAY has increased by 10% per second.
Scopes in games should at most be halving frame rate
this is more quatering it somehow
i'm not sure it's that clear cut tbh
but i don't know enough about it to be able to say either way
but, having to render at two different distances is more work at least
and interacts with how you set up lod distances and a bunch of stuff i'm sure
I have a personal hate agenda against the Fool card
You're, at worst, rendering the game twice
the better spider skin
That should halving FPS, maybe a little more if it's a poor implementation
i see people thinking its so great, so incredible, wow you get to duplicate your card, but it's no better having two of the original card smh
This feels like they've broken something, especially considering how random it is if it happens
it's just more flexible because it can be a second of any card right
You might not have 2 of the last card
not that exciting but sometimes better than having 2 of the same carfd
or you might have multiple cards you may want to duplicate
Don't hate it, but it does feel like they ran out of ideas and had to add one more lol
fool card should have been any of my meta card ideas that some people seem to hate.
It's fine that it's in the game I've just seen like 2 or 3 people glazing it and that was enough to produce hate inside me
"using this card causes the nearest enemy hunter to immediately use a tarot card"
then you get to get mad that you accidentally healed an enemy team 😄
They should add a card that causes all enemy hunters in a 50m radius to scream a loud yell
Downside is you also yell
it may as well just give you darksight then
No yelling is funnier
I'll allow it if instead it causes all enemy hunters in the area to yodel
I mean, most games that use tarots usually have the fool as a "duplicate last used card"
That's even better
Dunno, usually fools are wild.
yeah fool could have just have a random effect of any of the cards when used
But I can see how that is that concept made into a mechanic.
unpredictable, maybe a bad idea, maybe powerful
No one would use it
Theres a fair few that could just fuck you over with no effect
Its cool that the fool lets you choose which card to dupe, that makes it more flexible than simply having two copies, but how often are you carrying more than two tarot cards smh
To be fair no one is using the fool now either. It is like the sun, you use it if you find it in match, but rarely as a tactical move.
tbh I'd just want a tarot card that tells me how many hunters are left in a game
Not where they are or any info
that would be cool. i'd use that
just "There are x hunters alive"
One message removed from a suspended account.
what do you mean get hanged man back. the fool just repeats the effect, it doesn't give you a copy of the other card does it?
That is the hanged man
hanged man lets you see through the eyes of another hunter right?
One message removed from a suspended account.
How's it work? Just one at random or
One message removed from a suspended account.
Just use it if you are in doubt if the server is wiped
That's cool but it's no better than just having two hanged man cards and that's why the Fool glazing i see fills me with anger 😔
oh. that's interesting. i didn't know that. I assumed the fool was an immediately used effect of the previously used card.
that doesn't tell you the amount, just lets you see through someones eyes
Well, only thing that matters is either 0 or 1+
not true. if you see 8 and you havent heard a sound all match you get to go "uh.."
Not really
Dunno, I track players fine enough.
If you know the amount of hunters left you can guess how many there are later into a game
If you're playing duos and you know where the other duo is and you get "3 enemy players left" you know that there's a solo in a bush aiming at you
I will concede I don't play duos
they might be distracted by their netflix show instead
I meant hanged man lmao
does it pick the nearest enemy hunter or?
Yes
yeah
Remember that when it happens and you'll know the direction of them
lmao now I'm just imagining you use it and it just cuts to someone looking at you through a scope.
Lol
Lmfao
gonna happen to someon eventually i hope i get to see the clip
what about it makes them all take 1 damage so they grunt
*sparks:
*
I wonder if anything funny (read: buggy) happens if you die while spectating
Amazing
One message removed from a suspended account.
Oh cool
Hunter_237 was killed by magic
can you cancel the spectate early?
Yeah
does hanged man have a range limit or can i use it to player-check oce lobbies as soon as i load in
I'd like to see a tarot card that teleports you to a random nearby location
Like within 20 meters or something
Fish react me one more time and i will cry
can i get a fish pls
edit failure, laugh at this user
no way you mispelled it ON THE EDIT
SHUT UP
Maybe a tarot that applies an effect to your next shot
autocorrect
you should really fix the capitalization
broomed has no reason to be capitalized
Idk what your talking about
Do you mean "Idk what you're talking about."?
You forgot punctuation.
Anyways when do we get the tarot card that blows up all red barrels on the map
When do we get the tarot card that blows YOU up
You forgot to shade the top of his head due to the shadow of the top guy's fist.
Don't need a tarot card for that, i do that like every other time i cook a dynamite
We definitely need a tarot card that spawns 17 immolators though
i would like a tarot card that gave your next shot a levitation effect. so you could shoot someone and they start to float away
All on you. Whenever someone activates it YOU specifically @turbid dock have 17 spawned on you
sure this one too
the people who die to it will be all. yessssss sick. I love it. please sir can i have some more
I'd be shooting myself to levitate into freaky positions
I feel like shooting yourself is somewhat difficult to achieve if you don't include splash damage
I think i can do it with a bow
gonna be hard to pull off so sure i'll allow it
Now that you mention it
what about conc arrows does that count
ig theyre kinda splash
Arrows ricocheting if they hit a metal surface at a steep angle would be a pretty sweet mechanic
bowboosting
Real
So has anyone been fooled by a dark sight decoy yet?
I have
Apparently the orange blob moves in the area around the decoy
Orly
Yeah
yup
wasted all my seconds lmao
Makes me wonder if they're secretly using like, an invisible hunter bot or something for it lmao, I didn't see any "illegal" positions, the orange blob only appeared in walkable areas
i mean it could just be an invisible bot of the sort in the sub level 11 lobbies i guess
Fortunately we had killed everyone else in the fight so we were just closing in on this one dude doing the most coordinated push ever against a ghost
ez: just spawn it at hunter location
On that note, they should totally add a tarot card that spawns fake hunter footsteps 
Just an invisible ghost holding shift W
A tarot card that changes time of day
I don't think that's technically possible
Just send all players to a loading screen, they can wait 
Lol
Jokes aside I agree, it most likely ain't possible
I'm down with a tarot card that puts the lobby in any applicable weather mode
suddenly rain!
Imagine, burn card, this is now an inferno map!
i also wouldn't mind one that just made the murder circus clown grunt giggles occur around you randomly for rest of lobby.
Mosin sniper camping your building? Not anymore!
aight fellas, any game breaking bugs i should be aware of
Cursor bug is the recurring villain of the series at this point
idk of any really major ones tbh, this update seems.. mostly pretty clean?
Imagine this: You are just hunting in the bayou ( a hunter is a hunter that must hunt afterall) and someone pops a card.
And just get hit with a JPG of this on your screen!
I wonder when they'll bring back the gamma reset villain, i liked that one
ah that again
nothing too game breaking
its just nerve wracking
50% chance of this jumpscare, 50% chance of the ADS noise right next to you
Fuck it, a tarot card that hits a single unfortunate enemy hunter with a minute of the ash bloom footsteps
we
need someone to revise some of these cards
if im reading this right there is a card that lets you spectate enemies

even 1.5 seconds is lethal enough

15 seconds is a whole marathon
It's not OP, since they know they've been spectated they can play around that
and thats the downside?
One message removed from a suspended account.
yessir 40 blood bonds from dark tribute
yeh i mean we got wallhacks in game no doubt
but playing around information need counter information
like if enemy has spyplane, you pop counter spy plane

if you are outdoors sure
if you are indoors
uh
depends on the compound
One message removed from a suspended account.
if you are stuck in some place like scupper
I don't think there's that many spots
you could feasibly scoot to
It is just a beetle with extra steps.
Also you get their vision in dark sight
death sentence in some compounds
esp the smaller ones that are 90% wood
well kinda,
wallbangable material
if they roughly know where you are, they can just let a few rounds rip in your general area
but still very strong one sided information tool
almost on par with dark sight
which is REALLY strong
It is not one sided, the enemy also knows when you've spied on them.
And time spent in that mode is time you cannot shoot or move.
a blip of someone has seen you isnt really that op. if im correct a hero in apex has this
as a passive
my friends can
we go in a compound, smoke 2, 1 remains hidden
well i go in a corner, and he is known for 15 seconds
he aint gonna hear that blip
It is quite loud
it is not a blip
you make noise while you are spectating?
No, but when you get out of it, it makes a loud noise
And again, how is this much different than taking a stalker beetle?
what i meant was that the poor fellahs gonna be long dead before 15 second timer is up
no travel time, unkillable
beetles need to traverse to provide info
That is whay my clash team did, I ran a stalker beetle for the last player alive.
They cannot fight the beetle as my friends push, but if they ignore it they will bleed and poison to death.
oh sry my keyboard snapped
maybe don't stand on it while typing
Again, trust me I've played a lot of rounds in this patch, hanged man have provided 0 issues so far.
well, frag arrow was here for YEARS but apparently people found it problematic recently
its new and not a lotta people used it
im almost 100% postive this is a BIG issue
Well, frag arrows became an issue when 2.0 increased their total ammo reserve.
In combo with deployable ammoboxes you can just spam the freely.
is this a hanged man is OP discussion
it acts the same way as deimos in r6
if it revealed both positions, tracker and tracked, that still would be very strong
but balanced out since it gives the tracked an actual chance
It is strong and good, but like... not op
just move after you get the audio cue that you've been watched. whats the issue exactly
"oh no they know what building i'm in" don't they already know?
its gonna be OP against last remaining enemies solos at least
That you can be the last one on your team and then they can use it to 2v1 you (bc the 3rd is using the card).
Even tho same can be done with beetle or burning their team-mates.
like, knowing where people are does not give me a 100% success rate in killing that person.
And it's one shot
beetles make noise while taking flight, fly slowly. and can be shot(easier than what you think i think)
it burns?
And that draws them out.
Like
It goes away
Like if your case is that hanged man is OP is bc it helps the enemy team locating you, then shooting the beetle or trying to choke your team-mates does the same.
Most so far use it for spawn fights
nah it was that it provided one sided information
but it burns
so its aight
thought it would stay and has a cooldown
I used it when I solo farm my level 40 something hunters to level 50.
I pop it at the start of the round to figure out where not to go lol
Ya it's not a trait, it's a consumable
oh god yeah, that would be bonkers lol!
All the cards burns.
i mean maybe you get to see their loadout and thats potentially good info to have. most of the cards look wild if you extrapolate yourself into a tizzy but my feeling is mostly they're just.. not gonna be that common or as useful or as strong as people want to imagine them to be
aight then its not scary anymore lol
Interestingly this is the first event in years without event traits
technically some of the cards are new..ish? traits.
they did a fine job with the event site though
Yup
even if they're just recycled old traits you only get to keep for max one lobby
it's a lot of new things and changes. not sure we needed actually new traits in the mix along with the cards
Cards is kinda a substitute for it.
And honestly more healthy, problematic cards can more easily be regulated in spawn rates.
death cheat fix when? 
Also fact that a card like the devil is one match only, so getting crackshot ain't just gonna snowball into multiple matches.
whas wrong with death cheat now
you can still be 3rd partied in the temple while you're trying to get your crackshot wildland clip. watched it happen to rachta
Bugged
but how bugged. as in just doesn't work?
Sometimes vanish when you extract
oic. weird one
Kinda, letting them have room to breath is good
there was enough chance for bad bugs and unhelpful edgecase stuff with the update as it is
Hunters are autistic confirmed
Suffering from success
After I exfiled my death cheat was gone I was very sad :(
yes, chance for it to disappear after extract
wtf...
or lose your hunter
ok that's too much
So much pain
If that happens
One of the best moments turning into the worst moment
I’ve heard it uses it if you get downed and are revived
Anyone else use necromancer is death cheat lite?
wha?
yes, its usable by solos for self res
did we fight
ayo
Lorne Malvo
you fool
I sent u a friend request
i was wondering what you were doing up there
sorry mate, im only mates with my irls
you must pay
naaaw, it was my teammate
i just baited you in there

was a good game tho, good shit
Welp, I think that was a cheater
fanning a pistol and only hit headshot from 50m away
Thankfully picked up death cheat that game so not fully dead
homestead isnt as op as i thought it'd be tbh
hope it stays in the game but not as a scarce, wouldnt care if it got a reload speed/fire rate nerf. otherwise i'd expect it to be expensive
Homestead is more or less fine yeah.
Wildlands on the other hand
poison fucks vision bestest
when in dark places, itll ruin someones chance to pvp you back
and it also kills audio a bit
dumdum is pressure for killing, fire is pressure for losing the rest of the game, poison is fuck your visuals and audios and no heals unless they hide for a few seconds
Dumdum has the red bleeding effects that add noise to what you're seeing and the bleeding sound effects
the mako skins are really funny
its something but not as bad as poison
might be interesting if they refund and let you put a skin on all its variations
but thats expensive bb wise, maybe when the games healthier and makes some more dough
i was very dissapointed by the game lately. but, good job devs, this update is amazing.
Point blanked someone with the bomb lance for
0
damage.
fml.
Pretty sure he phased through a wall too cause I checked the room, he's not there, I turn around and he shoots me from a corner I just checked
yeah wasnt there one frame, suddenly there the next
They add a tarot that makes you invisible or something?
It is very slow and have deviation, you can easily miss with it.
it went off, it fired, my ammo counter went down
That is why it has steel balls and harpoons.
it just either phased through him, pulled a storm trooper ans only hit the like 5% of my crosshair that wasn't him, or he just took no damage
It was steel ball ammo
.
Ah well, nothing we can really solve without recordings.
So how does one deal with necromancer as a solo
maintain los to the body?
Kinda hard when he's in the middle of a cornfield and theres like 2 other fights 50m away
Do fire beetles at least ignite downed bodies?
yes
k so I can at least use those
isn't a lot you can do if people are downed in areas it's basically impossible to monitor
probably just move on and find your next 3rd party opportunity
have they addes the ability to find a third when in a party yet?
thats what I tried to do, immedietly got shot in the back lmao
sounds like you're playing hunt then
about freaking time lol
yeah. ngl kinda expected it to be never. kind of a surprise drop
i accidentally activated mute all communication after typing lets just leave him
and now i cant talk
press m
ok
did it work
Too caffeinated to sleep
Not caffeinated enough to play games
only caffeinated enough to suffer
Gotta play at 5 am when it's only freaks
we often pack it in around 12am because the lobbies tend to get real weird after that, and usually not in a good way. weekdays at least
damnit
everyones on mosin spitzer
maynard silenced sniper
2 points, got lightfoot, whispersmith, and blast sense. What other perk should I get if I'm looking to melee, or at least want to get as close as possible
determ because fuck ai wasting your stam
there is an event trait called "catalyst" which amplifies the effect of specific traits which have catalyst effects.
you can get it by using the tarot card "the empress"
So it's a trait that by itself does nothing, but will boost other traits marked catalyst if present?
So I'm new in here but it's looking like this is the place to find a consistent team to play with?
Are people super picky about your MMR or how good you are?

I think the issue less people being picky about playing with newbies and more that you might have a bad time if you get into to high mmr matches :)
I'm not new to the game just get carried by my much better friends but there's 4 of us so you can see the issue 🤣
And ty 🙂
some people are picky, some are not. they usually state if they have MMR requirements to play with them
but yeah i recommend to play with people around same MMR, because playing with people much higher can quickly make you feel you are not contributing much and then you become this meme:
which really isn't fun xD
kransky simulator showdown
Yeah, the people I usually play with are also the trap every doorway and wait 30min until everyone gets so bored they push the traps
well you can disable and clear traps before you push them
Yeah they're usually ready for that dynamite is like their kryptonite though 100%
Should say our kryptonite though I guess lmao
xD
yeah can not expect that traps have no counterplay, because they very much have xD
i can not play that way, it bores me out of my mind.
but if someone enjoys it that's valid
yeh traps are like a "measure" of defense not absolute bullwarks
yesterday i was so glad i brought my old trusty slate riposte so i could cut through 3 concertina bombs
makes short work of it
Yeah we've had games before where they've brought 4 poison/conc sets each
Concertina bombs and bow with Concertina arrows
yes!
100% accurate! 
Eat those wires >:)
vigilant is my first pick in perks
i think its a must have in a trio
at least 1 guy
if people are bringing more traps this event i might bring vigilant more often and decoy fuses again.
I always bring it too I usually go for the one that lets you bring large + medium weapons first though
How is the event so far I've not played it yet
personally i think it's fantastic, the most enjoyable event for me for a long time.
the tarot cards really bring a breath of fresh air and the nests are well done and enjoyable and have a good amount of complexity and novelty.
tarot cards were a long talked about concept in hunt
and the implementation aint bad tbf
im just reading and using them today
overall a fresh touch
Without becoming meta dominating
yeh the single use thing as a consumable to restrict them
instead of perks
good idea
We love gambling
someone remind me, can you have multiple charges of necromancer?
If he got up and i killed him again, is that it?
only one instance of necro at a time
so he's dead?
he ded
Good
I burnt him out
I feel bad cause he took a while to proc it
idk if he was just being smart about it or if he was just hoping I'd leave so he can crawl out alive
baited him with my bounty token
18 points, what spend them on
but you can stack up on them pretty easily
search every tower, and the rng at spider nest
im thinking of getting a few more then just trolling as solo with concertina fortress
only option is concertina arrows nowadays though
Sure, but still that takes time and if you wanna grind 5-10 matches to get a 4 chariots
be my guest
tbh
hunt's easy to survive as long as you're not going for boss bounties or straight to the lair
farming like that isn't that bad
its less of a grind and more of a nice addition if youre farming ai for some reason
I usually grind AI if the boss starts getting banished from the start of the game across the map
by the time I get there everyones long gone so I might as well just get some free XP from AI
good move
and a good scare when theyre wondering where the last 3rd party team is at
anyway, bomb lance with steel ball and dragonsbreath with a Conversion, any suggested traits to spend the 18 I got on?
meh, dunno about witness
poltergeist is great cause it scares and makes people look at a different angle
theres a specific audio cue when its being used so good players will know to ignore, but hard to notice in the middle of a fight, very good for catching off guard to take a peek
Is the audio cue on the user or the object?
people nearby will hear the audio cue, i think
the object obv makes regular noise from being opened or closed
people nearby will hear the audio cue
doesnt originate from the object, its just an audio cue they hear
so just in the area in general? Whats the cue?
fuck if i know, probs a vid on it
rarely anyone uses it, thats whys it effective anyway
Maybe Pain sense?
dark chocolate would be better if the after taste didn't overly take over the initial taste and rather they had an even taste. This is why I hate deckhand man
huh
The Empress card is awesome. As a solo, having Catalyst and Necro the whole time is so good. ☕
Dark chocolate is best in small amounts
depends how dark
It's always a nice day when you meet another solo player at the boss lair and they just let you take the other token and go on their own way
Not even as a solo, I use on fresh hunters to open up 4 trait points lol
Yeah i do that too. :))
late to the party, but... where is she?
Who is she?
the huntress from the trailer
deserte rose treatment
what does that mean?
good hype building guys!
sometimes they hold off on a hunter till near the end of the event
for... reasons
oh! Desert Rose, the lady with two skins?
She will be released at a later date :)
The Chariot seems like a really good tarot to deny an extracting team from getting out
correct
Hive Bomb seems like it'd be good for melee?
Throw it in a building, wait for the wasps to get angy at whose inside, rush in as they're trying to deal with the wasps
a decent player takes around 2 seconds to deal with the swarm
The point is to force them to move or make noise
the best about the hive bomb is really audio.
So I'm not running into a room that can have a Romero wielding cowboy sitting in a random corner
plus poison is aight ig
they are like a sentry, making their position known.
and they poison someone which deafens them and are noisy themselves, quite good to mask your sound. but it usually only affects one player briefly.
well, any better suggestion?
so you can get some value out of hive bombs, but regular explosives are usually just better
decoy fuzez
decoy fuses are excellent for info gathering
choke bombs are also great
oh actually fair
cause if I'm meleeing choke bombs don't affect me
Well they do but nowhere near as badly as it would them
hmm well
if i were to give you a friendly advice id say keep melee as a last or second to last resort
I'm using a bomb lance
plan around gunpowder
with steel balls
so I'll probs still be fine
If I whiff it, oh well, they're gonna have trouble shooting me
yeh that way yes
melee is generally not a very sustainable method of killing hunters
but it can be very usefull in some situations
I'll bring choke beetles and bombs
Beetles to look inside and choke, bombs if I already have an idea of where they are
where can I see the effect each tarot card has? Item Details dont say anything
and since all melee tools can one shot, one way or another. bringing a dedicated melee weapons for hunter killing purpose may not yield the best results
in game press I
in menu press X
The details of the card is literally it's effect
^
thx - yesterday it would only show shibberish for me. now it show proper Details
Wow ok hang on chokebombs don't have that large of a radius
sounds like a classic ui glitch
probably switched ur language input into sth thats not supported
You have to be pretty close to the explosion to be hit
Or does it have a larger range as it goes off which shrinks?
So when it goes off it has a larger range for that moment? Alright
As long as it hits them once
The point here is to hit them with choke so they can't aim for a few seconds
also it doesn't seem to have a larger range on detonation
hmm, the choking pattern is not hard to memorise
so dont think they are going to miss everything
It's likely harder to memorize when you have a hunter barreling at you with a bomb lance
in fact they might just panic and shoot
I don't expect them to miss everything, just miss enough
gets headshot by a random throwin axe meant for a grunt 20 meters behind
seems like the detonation range is 6m
yeh thats abt right
oh and it deals 1 damage
it can be used to kill hoonters
And 6m is not as large as I thought, tho ig it's radial
Did they buff dragons breath on the bomb lance some point in the last like 6 months to a year? This is setting people alight from really far away
i have killed a katana wielder, who has killed me, with a choke bomb
its always been strong
(I still remember when we had that event trait where being on fire would heal you
I remember setting myself on fire only to rush in with fire rounds in the lance and a lot of molotovs
The garden tarot card does does it heal missing health chunks too?
I think it heals, not restores
Ah okay thank you
Retired Vinson and Ghost Face 
Although
I don't really use ghost face much so
didn't see the point in keeping it
may i use !tarot as a reminder for myself or is that only to help other people
!tarrot

Get rid of chariot, empress, and devil I guess
the devil is so cool i hope they keep it
Nah kinda cringe
y?
Eeeeepy beeepy
henlo marsh
You're cringe
I do hope the spiders stay
Just, spiders around towers and stuff 
Devil user found 
I sell my cards unless it's the world, sun, or hanged man
empress I use too actually
chariot is the best troll card
we had 2
a team weant to cyperss for extract
we blocked it, they had to run to catfish
took them 5 mins then we blocked again
are we still using cringe as a negative adjective
Hello everyone, does it happen to you all as well where you just get DeSalle and then Mammon's and then Desalle again, and again, and again?
yo yo yo, waddup dudes, haven't palyed in a hot minute, did they fix the main menu UI that the fucked up a year or so ago?
Saw the new upcomming update, looks fun, like the changes, time to hop back on I guess
They are improving on it, it's quite intuitive imo, but ig not if you want the old UI
true random is a lot more streaky than most people imagine. you can definitely get unlucky and get a lot of the same map / weather affect / time of day / whatever
def prefered the old one, but did they even FIX the new one? It was broken, like really, you press 1 thing and it opens another and etc.
When there's a certain percentage of a map loading in, even if it's 15% it's never going to be less unfortunately. But again, I'm not complaining I just wanted to know if it happens to more people
for sure. some sessions i get endless stillwater. it happens
oh it's live starting today? just in time
it's been live for a day and a half or so
Was live like yesterday
aight let's give it a spin
there are still bugs, but much much less.
It's also PC friendly again at least
I remember buying skins in the shop, but when I pay for it, it shows up as being a completely different one, I lost my shit then and there and quit
they tend to prioritise cash money bugs obvs
reported it as a bug here too
If you contacted support they would reverse it iirc
nope
Then your support agent sucked

still got the video too
Tried equipping my already available skin but as I said the whole interface was offeset so I ended up buying a shitty skin
Actually, that was me last update haha, never managed to experience desalle fully because of it.
Painful
only 2.5k? disappointment
yeah wtf
<@&357256267087085568> posting this in multiple channels
Bro over here trying to flex 2.5k like its worth anything
just spam fishing for nincompoops
smh scammers getting poor 
Thar she blows
Even the scanners can't live in this economy
Trying to play the new event for the first time, game crashes upon opening, is this a known issue with known solutions?
This buddy made the booboo hurt less
well 2.5 k is a lot for some people.
don't forget scams are aiming at the desperate and gullible
Yeah 2.5k is a lot, would love that rn ngl
i would love some, so i could upgrade my PC again.
I could... live off it
how many times y'tried
could cover groceries for half a year as well.
like 2 or 3
validating files
also on a driver related note have seen some people have issues with latest version (unsure if it was hunt tbh) but no issues rolling back to prev version
nah i havent done any of the default fixes yet just figured id come in and check because oftentimes when an event drops theres an issue like that and you can instantly get the right answer if you just ask here
but ill just try the defaults if its not like that
might be worth a try also if you get stuck
okay-ish. i have a homestead at the minute.
will i get a chance to use it? we will see
well that’s lovely! hope the 2 barrels aim true if in need
wishing you the best of luck
I will probably need it. still brushing off the rust after taking a couple of weeks off 😛
i got one in my backlog aswell, need to use it yet
exact same thing here 😭
I've been doing an xbow prestige and uh.. you know. it's a little bit sex panther. 60% of the time it works every time
Cheaters in this game are fuckin wild and I love when people shoot me through multiple buildings or a rooftop while hopping and not using fmj rounds, garbage game,the pvp aspect is trash
but when i stuff it man. comical fails
Double up that spin by running shotbolt!
oh i am. shotbolt / normal
"the pvp aspect is trash"?
What other aspects are there?!
you get some supreme doinks. but i am still really not good with it under pressure
Whats the best health bar setup for trios
many bars mostly. some people like a big bar up front. theres argument for and against
clip us some of this madness. would like to see
1 big and rest small is what rachtaz does
i run big bar in front, but it makes resto shot a necessity
i mean solo you may as well go 3 big
But when you get downed you lose a big bar
and then i restore it with my resto shot
the point is a big bar is much harder to burn off with fire, and i save on heals from getting random damage.
sometimes even can shrug off long range shots. if they dealt less than 50
it's just a different set of up and downsides
playing with it for a couple months and prefer it ngl.
but resto shot is not cheap, so there is that.
i bring resto shot anyway
but i guess you get more value out of it technically for big bars
i keep track of moments where big bar or small would have been preferrable and for me it's clearly favoring the big one currently.
Imma try that thanks, maybe when im above level 50 when money isnt that much of a problem

Which tools do you also use?
Or consumables
knuckle knife, first aid, penny ringer or decoy fuses, choke bombs
consumables depend on if it's a fresh hunter or leveled one and what loadout i run.
fresh is 2x waxed dynamite, 1 big regen, 1 restoration.
leveled is 2x frags, 1 big regen, 1 restoration.
if my loadout require extra ammo i swap out 1-2 explosives for ammo boxes.
when i am broke i bring one waxed dynamite and 3x small vitalit shots.
4 bee jars
