hunt-general

[dense sleet]

so it has a lot of bots

[spark plaza]

yes

nae dogwater poopoo rn

[tranquil dawn]

Hey guys is it normal to get sniped 200 yard away with iron sight gun

[dense sleet]

its not impossible

[frigid ibex]

all my bros don't play on west

[spark plaza]

Apo?

[raven totem]

west sucks

[spark plaza]

Let me stop he hasn't played in months

[frigid ibex]

apo is not my bro when he picks west

[spark plaza]

Too real

i like hopping on and just dying immediately

the real fun in hunt

[frigid ibex]

its nice innit

[rain vector]

It is possible, notably on Mammons and Desalle, but it is VERY difficult.

[dense sleet]

very is an overstatement honestly

i got a 160m headshot yesterday with lebel spitz

contraband

[frigid ibex]

back when you could have 2 servers picked. Apo would always kindap me to west servers

[dense sleet]

its less the distance and how quickly i shot the guy in the face

[rain vector]

I got an amazing headshot with a Ranger across Deadfall back during the initial 1896 event.

[dense sleet]

it was a decent flick

[rain vector]

I do love that found Lebel’s can have spitz already loading in them.

[tranquil dawn]

With me

[rain vector]

I mean the ones found in Towers can have special ammo now.

[frigid ibex]

where you hiding it

all randoms are my friends

[tranquil dawn]

Someone give me a silly loadout

[frigid ibex]

axe and dolch p

[velvet tartan]

How to report cheats again?

[frigid ibex]

pretty goofy

axe you keep it stowed 99% of the time, dolch p is used 100%

it's the streamer loadout

you pick one weapon that's niche, make a video about it but you only use the dolch p in your pocket

meme

[raven totem]

[tranquil dawn]

Another question do I have to be point blank with shotgun for it to work

[frigid ibex]

you'll learn the one tap range as you use it

[raven totem]

no but you should be aiming center mass

one tap ranges for shotguns vary from 12m-15m

stronlgy depends on gun

and no 8m is quite short

[frigid ibex]

you can go penny if you want to get consistent kills on half assed shots

[outer iron]

At a certain point you can stop playing to win. Realized my gain for a win wasn't much so I just held the line and kept the enemy parties at bay while my friends escaped. Worked out flawlessly. Even got 2 of them before going the way of John Marston.

[frigid ibex]

like legs and arms

you'd have to play closer than buckshot range though

[raven totem]

I had a random that went ham with romero pennies one day, god was on his side or some shit

[frigid ibex]

maybe he knows its strength

i can't play penny at all cause im buckshot pilled

[raven totem]

ya I'm too stinky as well

[tranquil dawn]

Penny ?

[raven totem]

only stinky players play buck instead of pennies

[frigid ibex]

it fires less projectiles but they deal higher damage per penny

the pellets on buckshot are more but less damage compared to penny

[raven totem]

penny shot also has a lot more rng than normal buck

[frigid ibex]

that's why penny is effective at killing with leg and arm shots

[surreal jolt]

dizz

[frigid ibex]

sup

Penny is a killer on boss, meathead, bear

[surreal jolt]

i think my old discord is banned idk why i cant join i havent played in like a year would u be able to see why im banned?

or is there an appeal

system

[frigid ibex]

@lilac swan dm this

[surreal jolt]

ty

[pallid oak]

Anyone else having trouble to connect to servers?

[dreamy cave]

Doors too. The worst kind of boss.

[frigid ibex]

one of my main uses for the pennyringer

[hoary rune]

I'm not but my usual play partner hasn't been able to get in. Been trying for 45 mins

[deep ginkgo]

This is the only game with a matchmaking queue to find tm8s AND another matchmaking queue to find a game? Wtf? Why do i have to wait 20 minutes just to play the game?

[dreamy cave]

Lol its not the only game

[deep ginkgo]

Dude i spent more time waiting to find a game than fcking playing lol

[lofty sinew]

what time is it in your region

[dreamy cave]

On console or pc?

[deep ginkgo]

Why can't the game have one queue time

[deep ginkgo]

Console

[dreamy cave]

Console has a smaller player base

Then adding in time of day, day of the week etc that does suck tho fs

[pallid oak]

Yes just been trying havent made it past check backend connection, Crycloud error it says

[hoary rune]

Exactly what he's getting too

I got in no problem though, it's weird

[lofty sinew]

because people have the option of jumping out of the team they have been matched with before lobby queueing occurs

[pallid oak]

Yea my mates in just me

[deep ginkgo]

Why cant they fix it, just remove the opponent duo then for console to shorten queue time, i enjoy playing the game not waiting 20min to get into it

[pallid oak]

Hope they can fix it soon

[lofty sinew]

remove the opponent duo? what does that even mean

[deep ginkgo]

Removing the ability to choose if your opponents are duo or trio

[lofty sinew]

you think that would fix the problem? what if that does not change queue time at all

on PC at least, far fewer players que duos

everyone just queues trios

[deep ginkgo]

That will shorten the queue time, it splits the playerbase into like 4

[lofty sinew]

that assumes the playerbase is evenly split between the options doesnt it

[deep ginkgo]

They should just remove duo from the whole game

[deep ginkgo]

Yea kinda

[turbid dock]

I don't think i can support that, miss V

[lofty sinew]

well, hot take. wouldn't bother me heaps, but it also wouldn't fix the problem, far fewer people queue duos typically. But also, Crytek isn't going to do that. the game was initially designed to be played duos

[deep ginkgo]

I'm a guy the f

[frigid ibex]

I doubt duo is disappearing, it's part of the core game

[deep ginkgo]

Arc is also gonna get released with solo and trio, no duos

[turbid dock]

You've got miss V as your picture man

[deep ginkgo]

Cz i like the pic its from the dlc

[frigid ibex]

Well, Apex had trios only for centuries, that doesn't mean anything since it's a different game

[deep ginkgo]

Hunt playerbase on console is suffering man

[frigid ibex]

make it free on gamepass

psn plus

[lofty sinew]

you're annoyed about queue time in a game that preferences smashing together a lobby basically regardless of MMR already my dude. you're just playing on a low player numbers version.. probably at a low player numbers time of day

[frigid ibex]

can you swap servers freely on console

try queueing on NA when EU is dead and vice versa

[lofty sinew]

i have no idea

[frigid ibex]

that's what i do on PC

[deep ginkgo]

I switched the server but i just want to play the game, i won't mind if queue time is like 3min tbh..you have to ready up then wait for tm8s to join...they need to all ready up again then let's find a game

[plucky marten]

are east servers bugged?

[frigid ibex]

Ah

[deep ginkgo]

And wait another 10min lol

[frigid ibex]

Is it the randoms queue you're complaining about?

[turbid dock]

I play a whole lot of duos on EU, and the queue times are about as fast as trios, and the lobbies are usually full.

Personally I think removing duos is the worst idea I've ever heard, it would probably be a disaster for the game

[frigid ibex]

Might be better to use LFG or find consistent players to play with

[deep ginkgo]

Also i want to play clash a lot, is clash dead on pc too?

[frigid ibex]

no clue, I don't play clash

Propaganda def plays clash

[turbid dock]

Duos and trios play very differently. Trios is a deathmatch that is usually over in a few minutes, duos is a game of Hunt: Showdown

[deep ginkgo]

Cz i like the gunplay and i want to skip the finding clues part

[frigid ibex]

real tbh

[deep ginkgo]

But itd harder to find clash than hunt

[frigid ibex]

random queues and queues are very different

[deep ginkgo]

I mean they can keep it on pc and remove it on console

[frigid ibex]

It sounds like your main issue is the queue time to find random teammates

[lofty sinew]

less people queue clash than bounty

and when queue times are slow everyone just ends up queueing trio bounty. so if that is slow, it is a good indicator you just have very low players online

[deep ginkgo]

I want to merge both queue times into one, like all the game in the world have been doing the past 20 years lol

[worn oak]

Coffee time. ☕

https://tenor.com/view/joey-tribbiani-friends-cowboy-gif-5215190062616851890

[jolly parcel]

sparks dum dum when

[frigid ibex]

exageration, 20 year was server browser meta

[deep ginkgo]

It should be ready up, wait 5min, get into a game

[lofty sinew]

your idea would not solve your problem

[turbid dock]

Wait what do you mean by that

Most multiplayer games have lots of modes and queues

[lofty sinew]

if you are waiting 20 minutes for team mates, if you closed duo queue entirely, you would still be waiting 18 minutes.

[deep ginkgo]

Not ready up, wait for tm8s to join(10min), wait for tm8s to ready up (3min), wait to find a game (10min)

[lofty sinew]

people have the option to leave the team they have been matched with

before lobby queueing

you understand that yes

[deep ginkgo]

Yes but why

It's stupid

[frigid ibex]

CoD with, Search and Destroy & one life game modes queue, Team deathmatch NUKE TOWN ONLY queue, Team deathmatch Queue,

[lofty sinew]

because people want to be able to choose who they team with, even in randos

[frigid ibex]

and then another billion queues

[lofty sinew]

if you have a bad experience with a player you recognise, or you don't want to play with a fulll sniper scope rando, you can jump out of queue with them

[deep ginkgo]

It's like if marvel rivals did this it would be so dumb

Or cod

[lofty sinew]

have you noticed that hunt is absolutely nothing like marvel rivals

or cod?

[deep ginkgo]

Well it can be another option. Like "find teammates"

[frigid ibex]

yeah completely different

[lofty sinew]

is has an order of magnitude smaller playerbase for a start

[frigid ibex]

you can't dodge people in CoD for brining a sniper into something like clash, CoD lets you change loadout on the fly

[turbid dock]

Wow, those times are pretty insane

If you want to know a secret, I've personally never played a single game with random teammates. I've played with friends, and I've played solo. I accidentally got a random teammate into my lobby recently and had to find the "leave lobby" as fast as possible, i can't break my streak

Point being, if i had 10 min queues to find randoms, i would stop trying to find randoms, they're not that necessary

[frigid ibex]

its not even comparable

Marvel Rivals is a hero shooter OW clone

also nothing like Hunt

[lofty sinew]

if crytek introduced the ability to block a player from matching with you, there would be an argument for not needing the double queue

[deep ginkgo]

They can like make you change your loadout in the first 20 seconds of the game

[frigid ibex]

It's not that type of game

[lofty sinew]

none of your ideas will fix the problem of console hunt having a low player count at whatever time it is in your region

[frigid ibex]

CoD also have the issues of having dead game modes

Try playing search and destroy off hours

it's completely dead

and that game has much much bigger playerbase

[deep ginkgo]

What i'm saying is the ability of choosing oponnents should be removed in console, it will slightly shorten queue time

[lofty sinew]

it will make some people leave the game which will not help the playercount for almost indiscernable benefit to queue times, which will also get worse as a result..

genuinely your most straight forward route to fixing team mate queueing times

[deep ginkgo]

Not talking abt pc, pc got a healthy playerbase

[lofty sinew]

is to find some people on this discord or elsewhere, to queue with

[frigid ibex]

When you talk about queueing, you're tlaking about the finding random teammates right?

I keep forgetting that's a thing

[lofty sinew]

even on PC in oce, queueing for random team mates can be hecking slow.

[frigid ibex]

For me, Queue is when the matchmaking starts. To find opponents and a match

[deep ginkgo]

I'm just saying they should either remove duos in console or just merge the tm8 queue time and finding a game queue time

[lofty sinew]

what would you then say if you are still waiting 20 min for rando team mates

[deep ginkgo]

It won't happen

[lofty sinew]

oh i see, you have faith

[frigid ibex]

I'd honestly make an effort to find players to play with outside of random queue

if the random queue is dead

[lofty sinew]

that, as I already stated, is your only straight forward way to mitigate your issue

[frigid ibex]

it doesn't sound like the actual matchmaking queue is bad

it's just finding random teammates that takes long

[lofty sinew]

or just queue solo.

as someone else also already suggested

[deep ginkgo]

Don't want to get sniped and killed with 1 shot, trios has higher survival rate lol

[lofty sinew]

you will be waiting far, far longer than your current queue times for any of the changes you suggested (as it is highly likely none of them will happen ever)

[deep ginkgo]

It is bad

[deep ginkgo]

Or another option is crossplay

[lofty sinew]

it would make sense for psn / xbox crossplay sure

maybe that will happen eventually idk

[deep ginkgo]

It already exists i guess

[deep ginkgo]

I meant crossplay with pc lol

[lofty sinew]

yeah that's also not going to happen

[snow ridge]

What's missing is sending invites between the platforms, that's not doable still. Including between steam and Gamepass version of the game

[lofty sinew]

presumably that will come eventually? i assume

[snow ridge]

Probably planned but haven't really seemed to be particularly high priority

[lofty sinew]

Crytek works in mysterious ways

like rando third. they might sit on it for 5 years

but i would assume it's higher up the list than that

[deep ginkgo]

The problem is this game is fun, but spending more time in the lobby is really not fun at all

[snow ridge]

PC vs. Console is absolutely not going to happen though, Hunt is nowhere near being fair if that was the matchup

[lofty sinew]

i understand your plight my guy. I do. You need to understand that it isn't as simple to fix as you want it to be. There are people who have literally come in here to say they would willlingly wait 30 minutes for a lobby to have a "fairer" spread of MMR in it.

[sharp crow]

Get better and you won’t sit in lobbies. And console hunt players are a whole special breed of players

[lofty sinew]

it doesn't really matter how good you are if there is nobody else queueing.

[deep ginkgo]

It's really not like an esports game or something, all first person multiplayer games have crossplay

[lofty sinew]

no, they don't

[snow ridge]

Not even remotely close

[sharp crow]

Can’t get any more fair when I’m always in high 6 mmr. And there are a crap ton of 3 mmr queuing all the time

[lofty sinew]

you mean, some do.

[snow ridge]

They are in fact very rare if you look at fps games as a whole

[lofty sinew]

and those games are 1) nothing like hunt and 2) grant crazy aim assist to their console players which would really shit off PC players i can assure you.

[raven totem]

extreamly unlikely

[deep ginkgo]

Or at least if you play with keyboard&mouse on console they let you match up with pc players

[raven totem]

fun fact, hunt absolutly has the capability to do pc and console crossplay, it's just off intentionally

[snow ridge]

Now that would be cool, but it would also just cannibalize the gamepad playerbase for console unfortunately

[lofty sinew]

i mean i've heard less terrible ideas, but that is a lot of work for very few players

the reason pc console crossplay doesn't exist is not technology

[raven totem]

they have it, it works, it's intentionally off

[lofty sinew]

they would have to fully rebalance and rework the console version of the game

[raven totem]

technically exists, just not accessible

if mmr did it's job right it wouldn't be a problem

[deep ginkgo]

Yea it makes sense

[lofty sinew]

the first time someone posted a clip of aim assist flicking to someones head on crossplay console the table flipping would be immense.

[raven totem]

wouldn't even need a clip, there's a decent chunk of the community that would have a meltdown at the mention of it

[lofty sinew]

yeah

[raven totem]

I'm suprised we're not seeing pitchforks right now

usually when this comes up they do that

[lofty sinew]

eh i've seen people on the verge of it just due to the new crossplay player icons

[snow ridge]

True that if the MMR system could account for it properly it could technically work, basically low MMR PC vs. high MMR console kind of thing. Problem is how do you actually accurately calculate that, seems impossible.

[lofty sinew]

and what do you do for low mmr console, they still have the same problem?

[raven totem]

crytek lets to much seal clubbing go for it to go smooth

[deep ginkgo]

Marathon will have crossplay at launch, arc too

[lofty sinew]

you say this like it is bringing up a relevant point, but it isn't

[raven totem]

different games

[deep ginkgo]

No i'm mentionning other extraction shooters

[dense sleet]

that are new

[lofty sinew]

I spend time in game discords. I know what they are

[dense sleet]

and not been out almost 10 years

[raven totem]

not with existing communities

[dense sleet]

^

[vivid cape]

yhoo o7 about to purchase the game, any noobie tips for me

[dense sleet]

and its well known that its a wanted feature, its nothing new

crytek DO read chats and threads

[lofty sinew]

consider looking for people to play with in the LFG here and mention you are a new player

[raven totem]

don't stab the burning guys

[deep ginkgo]

Yes that makes sense tbh maybe the change will piss off the players lol

[lofty sinew]

there is no maybe

[raven totem]

Crytek is always.... watching....

[vivid cape]

yea yea asked in Asia server, wanted t know how much ping I can get

[snow ridge]

Try to learn from every death, consider what went wrong and what you could have done different to change the outcome.

[vivid cape]

the burning guys... noted

[raven totem]

use a headset

[lofty sinew]

early playing is a lot of learning what not to do

[vivid cape]

ohooo oke oke, will keep in mind thanks

[lofty sinew]

later playing is a lot of knowing what not to do but doing it anyway and having a good face palm about it.

[raven totem]

learn from mistakes, don't cite, bla bla is bullshit

[vivid cape]

oops i only have an earphone....which kinda doesnt work untill the wires are aligned to a speciific angle

[lofty sinew]

it's a very sound-centric game

[vivid cape]

soo footsteps are imp ...

[lofty sinew]

it's also ideal if you have a mic to be able to communicate with team easily (though text can work fine if you are a decent typer)

[raven totem]

might wanna get some cheap earbuds or some other option, sound is super important

[vivid cape]

i type fast hehe

[raven totem]

the mic doesn't really matter, it's hearing

[snow ridge]

Sound is pretty much just as important as what you see in hunt for sure, eventuall you basically start seeing with your ears

[vivid cape]

hmmm fine i will try to book one after a week

[lofty sinew]

i mean i reckon it can matter. but yeah not being able to hear positional audio well will make life hard

[vivid cape]

seeing with ears...damn Mr Yoda

[deep ginkgo]

You guys don't play clash right?

[raven totem]

also when it comes to sound run it in stereo, no goofy 3d business

[lofty sinew]

generally you do much more hearing other hunters than seeing them

[raven totem]

no we just talk shit about it all day here

[deep ginkgo]

Clash* lol

[vivid cape]

I am a big fan of bolt action rifle and vintage ones, hope this would be fun

[lofty sinew]

i have played a fair amount of it in the past. not so much currently

[snow ridge]

Clash for me is warmup/meme build testing

[strong moon]

there's a guy instantly wiping out lobbies on US east with super bullets then alt-F4ing before anyone can spectate

Kingferior

[vivid cape]

uhhhh oke dont know what 3d means in this context, but i will save this for later

[lofty sinew]

you are obviously in the right game for this

[raven totem]

was fun untill I kept getting crapped on by spitzer clans. haven't touched it in awhile

[snow ridge]

!report

[vivid cape]

cant wait

[strong moon]

I did report him. THis is the second Clash match tonight this same guy killed us in the first 15 seconds of the match.

kill view is through rocks, terrain, etc

[raven totem]

can't report from post game?

[strong moon]

I did report him

but Crytek wants that video evidence, don't they, that's why he's alt-f4ing

[vivid cape]

ohoooo have to be super aware

[raven totem]

just support and tell them witch matches, if obvious shit they'll see it on their end

[lofty sinew]

the seeing other hunters part is when the shooting starts and things get fraught.

[strong moon]

he has a kda of 300+

[snow ridge]

If you use always live recording feature you can just save the clip after dying and showing the kill location and how fast it was after match start and send that in. Should be plenty of evidence, no spectating needed

[strong moon]

someone in Germany probably just needs to come back from their smoke break to ban him

[raven totem]

300 peoples day shit on a bit

[vivid cape]

i would def be in a panic mode lol, would try to keep myself calm

[snow ridge]

But yeah people like that definitely get banned quickly, they just need to get to it during german work hours

[strong moon]

Hunt has a small enough community it's basically the same core group of toxic clan guys who do this sort of thing

[lofty sinew]

i'm sure they're all just as cool as that guy from southpark

[raven totem]

he's raging hard, see people complaining about what looks to be him on reddit as well

[lofty sinew]

The things complete losers will do to not feel like complete losers for a moment.

all he wanted was daddys attention but all he got was daddys credit card

leik if u cry evertim

[mild flower]

Crytek buddy if you want video evidence of cheaters we might need some kind of post match replay or killcams because the game is far from optimised enough for most of us to record our gameplay with stability

Only potentially killcams after you get team wiped or have no self revive I must specify

[lofty sinew]

i think they have lobby details recorded and if enough reports come for specific lobbies they can find the info they need easily enough

[snow ridge]

I know people have used shadowplay successfully as well as instant replay on amd (I've used instant replay myself without issue)

[lofty sinew]

ye i use shadowplay. idk what the performance overhead is tbh

[snow ridge]

It's quite low as long as things are working properly

[lofty sinew]

but i guess if your rig is already struggling it won't exactly help

[snow ridge]

Since it uses the video engines which aren't really used in regular graphics processing

But yes, if you are already struggling you might see a performance hit

[lofty sinew]

you're still constantly writing to disk though aren't you

[snow ridge]

True it would be some load from that, though AMD instant replay has the choice to only store the videos in memory until you save them which is quite nice (though still puts some extra load on your memory speed/capacity)

[lofty sinew]

shadowplay presumably uses ram if it can too i guess. have never bothered to look into it

[snow ridge]

I know it didn't have that choice when I used it last, which was quite a few years back now

Maybe they've added it since

[lofty sinew]

you would think that sort of rage hacking would flag the lobby automaticallly anyway tbh

[strong moon]

aaand that match he let people have a fight and he just killed everyone at the end

just to ruin a good match

[potent arrow]

bruh the clash matchmaking is brutal rn

[strong moon]

KDA is up to like, 400

[mild flower]

Wow this guy must be really cracked

[tranquil dawn]

I finally max out my first hunter

[lofty sinew]

Sadly even when banned this guy is going to feel like he got his moneys worth

i guess he has about 4 hours of rage hacking foot loose and fancy free left

[tranquil dawn]

What is the coolest dlc I should buy

[lofty sinew]

you will have to look and decide for yourself

[indigo hemlock]

does medal.tv have a plugin/detect feature for kills in hunt showdown?

[lofty sinew]

most people here will not agree that "hardest to see" is equal to "coolest"

[indigo hemlock]

i have an AMD gpu and see that amd doesn't have automatic clip saving for kills.

[tranquil dawn]

I just want my pew pew to look cool

Don’t need to be hard to spot

[lofty sinew]

cool is a completely subjective thing based on what you personally like. I like my badass women, but also the sillier skins like redneck

[dreamy cave]

Ghost face 👻

[lofty sinew]

maybe you're into clowns. or dapper looking gentleman. or military lookin suits

[dreamy cave]

Or a man with a ghost face

[tranquil dawn]

I mean g u n

[lofty sinew]

oh.

[tranquil dawn]

I already have prodigal daughters and it’s cool for me

[lofty sinew]

well, what sort of gun look are you into

and what guns do you use the most

[tranquil dawn]

Spark

And m1931 nagant

[dreamy cave]

Ghost faces gun

[lofty sinew]

there are pretty nice skins for both really. sparks has quite a few. idk how many the base nagant has

[dreamy cave]

Lol his skins are actually pretty sick

[tranquil dawn]

Lt me check

[lofty sinew]

I think I like most of the sparks skins to some extent, though some of them are prestige skins iirc

[tranquil dawn]

Oh wait I have one skin

[lofty sinew]

well, luisiana lustrum is at least

[tranquil dawn]

The reckoning

[lofty sinew]

it would make sense to pick whatever skin you like most for whatever guns you use most frequently if you don't already have one

[tranquil dawn]

Alr thanks man

[lofty sinew]

i can't really remember whats available for the base nagant

don't use it much

(ever)

[outer iron]

Had a great round. Friend clutched and I paid them back with a clutch in turn at the end of the round.

kinda crazy that melee rush survived to get the kill

[outer iron]

It was the fates. That same person also got me with duallies at an impressive range.

[lofty sinew]

haha. fair. sometimes rngesus bless

sometimes rngesus curse

[undone sail]

Has the game been good to everyone? I feel outclassed some.

[lofty sinew]

everyone has those days

[undone sail]

Struggling to adapt to the cards maybe

[lofty sinew]

idi. the cards are still mostly kinda edgecase stuff to my mind

i was dieing before, i'm dieing now

[undone sail]

Though I love the Chariot

I accidentally burned one today. It was within the time frame and my first thought was "Oh right Hunt is about punishing mistakes"

Better next time

[outer iron]

I don't bring cards. I just don't feel like using scarce items. Probably never will use them unless they become buyable.

[undone sail]

I think the Homestead could go for 300 to 350 hunt dollars

[lofty sinew]

there are some that are just straight forwardly useful

you can't use em for anything else? why not use em. having said that, i mostlly don't bring cards into lobby because i like my consumables..

[outer iron]

In kits where I am aiming for the win I usually got 4 consumables in mind. In kits where I'm trying to conserve money there's even less incentive to use a scarce item. Though I'm sure some people enjoy them.

[undone sail]

Well it's the classic "you can do it without the cards. They make life marginally easier"

Kind of thing

[lofty sinew]

how is there less nincentive when being cheap. the cards don't cost you anything

[outer iron]

They're limited. I can't get them back once they're gone.

[lofty sinew]

they don't do you any good in your stash

[ruby plaza]

damn I frogot the name of the first Naruto song

[outer iron]

I can hope I'll stumble on one later. But I wouldn't feel like using them in a round where I'm already being stingy with resources.

[outer iron]

Strong and Strike

[undone sail]

But I'll need it later syndrome strikes again

[lofty sinew]

well, as long as you can recognise thats just you falling prey to monke brain stuff I guess.

[outer iron]

Maybe I'll use them if the stockpile becomes ridiculous.

Good thing about Hunt over other extraction shooters, it doesn't actively steal my stuff (outside of frag arrows.)

[undone sail]

They seem to have a 10 count limit

[outer iron]

Ah. Shame.

[lofty sinew]

I mean, you do you, i just don't see the point of stockpiling things for no reason

[outer iron]

Guess I'll burn when I get to that point.

I remember playing Marauders when it was a thing and dumpstered it the minute they burned all my money and hoard.

Hunt has never done me this way.

[lofty sinew]

I'm guessing you are not a prestiger from the sound of it

[undone sail]

I've stockpiled stuff where I'm like discarding contraband dynamite

[outer iron]

I will stay 0 until the game goes offline.

[undone sail]

I'm at 420K hd

[outer iron]

Nice. Think you've got me beat.

[undone sail]

Not as much as some but better than plenty

[outer iron]

I think I'm stuck somewhere around 340K. And I'm fine with that. Get to run what I want. Can go hog wild whenever it suits me.

[lofty sinew]

easy come easy go imho. I'm not attached to any of it. it all goes in the bin at 100 regardless

[turbid dock]

when i reach 200k i'm blowing it all on avtomats

[undone sail]

Nitro and Mosin sec? Why not?!

[turbid dock]

funny number go up

[undone sail]

I was sorely tempted to run it today with three ammo boxes

[lofty sinew]

the number still moves regardless

[outer iron]

Next time I get that feeling they're gonna steal something fun from me, I'm stockpiling tf out of it.

I knew I should have invested in frag arrows.

[turbid dock]

same

i should have smelled it coming

[undone sail]

They took explosive bolts

[outer iron]

I saw them people complaining. Always gotta remember the squeaky wheels.

[undone sail]

That's why we found a chu ko no explosive user

[outer iron]

I don't think anyone could have predicted the explosive bolt removal.

That was out of left field.

At least frag arrows are legitimately competitive.

[lofty sinew]

they both are

[undone sail]

I mean they said they wanted to deploy things rotationally

[turbid dock]

honestly great that they dont tell people before making things scarce tho, prevents nerds like us from stockpiling 50+ frag arrows on dormant hunters

[rancid seal]

anyone else having matchmaking issues?

[turbid dock]

maybe i should just stockpile a little bit of literally everything

[undone sail]

Occasionally bring back dum dum

[outer iron]

Explosive bolts give Xbow something beyond being a wooden slug romero.

[dusty palm]

Yep, in asia server queue for 6 game and all 6 game detected match making issue and send me back to main menu

[undone sail]

Like taking dum dum from the officer was kinda odd

[wild pasture]

Yes I keep getting put in lobbies with absolute legends of the game while I myself am absolute garbage 😁

[turbid dock]

i saw officer dum dum pretty often

[outer iron]

I was actually interested in giving the xbow a more fair shot. Not now with that removal. The utility was a fun selling point..

[turbid dock]

the pressure is annoying

[undone sail]

Steel bolts for sniping

[lofty sinew]

the xbow is still good. and i never used explo for it.

[turbid dock]

i've been using steel bolt crossbow a bit lately, and i have to say, it's way better than a silenced romero with slugs hah

[undone sail]

I had some killer crossbow deadeye rounds

[outer iron]

Xbow deadeye needs some skins.

Mad disrespect for something so cool visually.

[turbid dock]

normal crossbow needs some skins, they all suck

[outer iron]

Also throwing axes needs some cool tomahawk skins.

[undone sail]

Shooting Joy is a legend skin. May come back

[wild pasture]

Do any of you guys happen to play PS5

[undone sail]

That's a Mythic, sorry

Not saying you may not get one but the current one isn't coming back

[outer iron]

yeah I hate fomo skins. especially when it concerns things that barely or don't have skins as is.

[undone sail]

The Southern Belle is pretty plain

Not that one specifically but I get what you mean

The Steelroot is plain

Eh

[exotic tangle]

any of yall got white toes?

[lofty sinew]

[undone sail]

Is that a personal question?

[exotic tangle]

yes

[whole mist]

[undone sail]

I'm entirely too awkward to answer that

[short halo]

I wouldnt call 4 barely any and there's 1 seasonal and 1 always available

[tall plover]

Honestly, at this point i'd rather have plain and grounded stuff instead of stuff loaded with details and colors that gets reused for DLCs and Event BPs

[outer iron]

I see one. And it aint Christmas. It deserves more than fomo. I want proper tomahawks.

[lofty sinew]

I guess i am just magically impervious to fomo.

[mild flower]

anyone playing uppercut precision after the pistol dropoff change and baseline catalyst fanning?

[light sky]

Having the butcher knife skin for throwing axes is such a flex

[light sky]

I just use haymaker, just better

[tall plover]

I really don't understand the obsession with really leaning into saturated color difference or complete monotone-ness of some skins in the recent events. Like some of the older mythic skins are mostly so desired because the designs are plain, and simple, having a certain color palette of wood and metal, adorned with some small details, like writings or small engravings. They honestly should experiment with more wood/metal color combos that compliment each other instead of going for fancy colors.

[mild flower]

not just better, but better most of the time no?

[tall plover]

Mostly yeah

[light sky]

Better all the time

[mild flower]

hot take I think uppercut precision has more aura

[lofty sinew]

disagree

all precision variants have mild sweatyboi aura

[light sky]

Haymaker is way cooler too

holding it with both hands and so

[mild flower]

how they're as far from meta as you can get lol

[lofty sinew]

I don't make the rules

[light sky]

It's a handgun

[mild flower]

handsgun

[hazy crest]

Nagant p is the broke gun

[tall plover]

Wait so are they still dedicating the rest of the year to work on the technical part of the game? I don't remember

[hazy crest]

If your hunt dollar count is running on fumes you run nagant p and Romero hc

[mild flower]

js run a free hunter atp

[outer iron]

Nag p fanning is so fun

[lofty sinew]

i feel like this event kinda signals the end of that period to some extent but i don't think they have addressed it directly

[outer iron]

I just need a good pair for it on 2 points

[tall plover]

I'm okay with them keeping on working for the rest of the year if they need. I just hope that event/BP content after that stops being a copy pasted variant skin slop and we actually get more than 3 gun skins per event lmao

[lofty sinew]

yeah idk about that. i suspect that is a directive that has come from the top and will probably just be the norm from here on out unless they get clear feedback from enough of the community that it isn't acceptable

[tall plover]

It's not even a problem with like, the amount of skins at this point even, but rather the fact how much of the letdown feeling you get when you wait for 3 months to see what they've been cooking up just to get hit with something that's been reused from older event/DLC

[lofty sinew]

I mean they should be working on all the aspects of the game that are rough all the time anyway right, i guess this period was just supposed to be them "focusing on it as a priority rather than whever they can sneak it in"

[tall plover]

Like i'mma be real in the current event, Indecision's End feels like the only thing alongside hunter worth your while

[lofty sinew]

i like the short cennie skins. and the halloween-prop skin looks "ok" on a couple of the pistols I guess. I've never been a fan of the "random crap wired onto a gun in a way that would clearly make it less functional and less pleasent to use" type

[tall plover]

Envenom is pretty nice, but lets be real it's a very simple design that could've been thrown together in like 6-7 hours in front of a screen that ended up just being monotone black with pretty red gem, that got applied not to variants of one, but TWO guns

[lofty sinew]

i would have liked envenom (i assume thats the black webbed one with the splash of blood) more without the splash of blood tbh

[outer iron]

This whole Battlepass is very "Spirit of Halloween™ " outside of the drippy Cent Shorty.

[lofty sinew]

they just look a bit like cheap halloween props you'd buy at a party store. so I guess, in that sense, appropriate. but i don't like it much

[dusky spoke]

The Empress looks like when you get the bubbles from a bath and make your head look silly

[tall plover]

I honestly feel Envenom could've been way better if instead of using straight up BLACK paint over wood they just made wood look dried and aged up, like on Lucidus, and made the web pattern be actual web stuck to the gun

[lofty sinew]

yeah i'm a bit bored of the edgy dark / black look without highlights tbh

[untold stag]

total noob lfg. just bought and have yet to login

[mild flower]

petition for this message to say "pardner" instead of "partner"

[tall plover]

It's not even a problem of like dark edgy look, but rather that they work with COLORs on skins right now, like actual colors instead of materials, like wood and metal. No Quarter is one of the best examples of how by changing the type of wood and adding a small simple detail (the rope), they ended up with a nice neato skin that does feel practical and kinda more fit for the overall setting, than for example the "new" Day of the Dead skins.

[lofty sinew]

to some extent it must be catering to things that sell well I guess

[tall plover]

Yeah

[lofty sinew]

I guess there is a quiet but sigificant chunk of the playerbase who just likes their dark edgelord skins and will throw money at all of them

oh man, reptile AND totally black guns. sugoiiiiiii

[tall plover]

I'd honestly trade like all of my Marathon skins from Tide of Desolation to get No Quarter right now but that's like, yeah, not possible lmao

[lofty sinew]

i don't really remember skin names at all

[hazy crest]

Slate riposte skin if I recall correctly

[tall plover]

Yeah

[torpid glen]

does this game use momentum based match making?

[lofty sinew]

a teams match MMR can change based on how they've been going in previous matches seperately to their individual mmr i believe

[tall plover]

I honestly feel like asking them to bring Somnus for Slate would be too much since it's ancient, but at least bring back SOMETHING good for Slate (yes i know about shoguns roar, but i honestly hate it because of how overloaded with details it is)

Slate only has Eulogy and That one red skin from scrapbeak DLC, and those are the only skins outside of BP/Event stuff for it

[hazy crest]

Somnus is easily the best skate skin

[tall plover]

While say Uppercut for example has like, a LOT of skins

[lofty sinew]

they sell

[hazy crest]

but slate is kinda mid rn

[lofty sinew]

people loves the big iron

[hazy crest]

Specter is just better

[tall plover]

I honestly prefer Slate just because i love it for the looks and sounds

[mild flower]

is crytek ever going to fix dynamite killing through surfaces

[lofty sinew]

doubt it

if it was an easy fix they would have done it already

[tall plover]

It's my favorite gun, yet it gets so little attention from the devs, stuff's just sad at this point

[lofty sinew]

if it's a hard fix it will probably never happen

[mild flower]

you say that but crytek does seem to avoid easy fixes pretty often

for balance though, not bugs

[rose elm]

All of the shotguns are just additional ammo pools for the pennynger!

[lofty sinew]

they have already specifically addressed it i thought. and it is slightly better than it was

but explosives have always been jank in hunt

and i have a feeling it is not an easy thing for them to fix

[polar ridge]

The Maynard Sniper skin has LEGO heads attached to it, way ahead of its time. Iknow it's traditional skulls, blahblah, but they look look like LEGO heads.

[tall plover]

That's what i'm saying

it's just sad idk

[polar ridge]

It looks too cheerful, LEGO aside.

[tall plover]

I honestly feel regret because during tide of shadows i literally had no money to allow myself the BP and it is the only BP in the past ?2? (i think) years that had a decent Slate skin, not even slate, but it's variant, but it genuinely looked good

And after that i finally earned some but it was too late and i just had to settle for the rest of the Tide trilogy without getting ANYTHING for the guns that i actually love to play with

[bitter wyvern]

I'll be honest, I don't think I really felt the "need" to buy Battle Passes outside of the witch season and maybe Harvest? I'd much rather just buy skin bundles.

[lofty sinew]

i buy em just to have something to work through. not because i care for the content of them

not that i'd mind if they improved the content of them.

[hazy crest]

Only skin I’m really sad I missed was miners song

Only colored alert traps ever

[lofty sinew]

the only skin i vaguely care about i can't have and i really don't care that much. i don't still play the game because of the quality (or lack thereof) of the skins

[hazy crest]

I had assumed they would add more so I didn’t bother getting it but it’s been almost 3 years

[clear fossil]

i really like the slug rival, allows me to paly pretty offensively
like if enemy shoots me from up close i can jut hold the corner and let them peek, or in case we trade shots i usually just keep sights on where he was and try and peek to finish off with an extra slug shot

[tall plover]

It's really good that at this point in the game you can allow yourself to just skip over stuff and get it later. It really is one of the best changes in their approach to BPs they've made. I just regret that it limits to post 1896 stuff, which honestly is kinda meh, skin wise

[bitter wyvern]

I think Death Mask is one of the skins I actually really want the most.

I don't care much for the Makos though. XD Not a fan of that rifle anyway.

[turbid dock]

youtube recommended me a video of a dude making a romero hatchet irl

absolute peak

[clear fossil]

yeah same i just watched it like 15 mins ago

[tall plover]

Oh yeah i saw it too i think

[turbid dock]

the entire hunt playerbase collectively watching the video lmao

[tall plover]

I'll be honest, if i could, i'd trade EVERYTHING that i've got from Desolation's Wake Event for Just Cretaceous Cruelty and No Quarter, like every Mako and Marathon skin just for those two

[bitter wyvern]

Think the other thing I've been considering is switching to PC compared to console.

I'm surprised it runs so well. Yeah, I had a crash, but...WOW.

[lofty sinew]

an fps like hunt was always designed with m&k in mind

[turbid dock]

they should make dragon's breath look like this in game

[tall plover]

Isn't it kinda like that during the nights tho

At least from the other side of the barrel lol

[light sky]

They... Are not Lego heads.

[bitter wyvern]

And then, y;know....other extraction games that I'm considering playing.

[turbid dock]

it does look pretty crazy at night, yeah

[lofty sinew]

sure. i mean. PC is the platform for shooters in my not particularly humble opinion. some are fine on console but. still not it. even after getting decent at fps on controller via playing destiny 2 with a friend for a year. not for me

[bitter wyvern]

Somehow I'm better at hunt on PC than I am on console, and that scares me. XD Was Controller really holding me back that much?

And I've just been demoing it on gamepass for a whiel.

[lofty sinew]

hunt on console doesn't really have significant aim assist

so no i am not surprised you are doing better in a game with the appropriate tool rather than the equivalent of trying to do brain surgery with chopsticks

[bitter wyvern]

Now I just gotta figure out if I wanna buy it again on steam. XD

[tall plover]

Can they chill on the colors tho? 😭
Like, how do we go from this to this

[lofty sinew]

just wait for a sale it's kinda worth imho

[ancient cave]

well

[bitter wyvern]

That's the thing, it's 60% off right now.

[ancient cave]

you're comparing two very very different aesthetics and styles here

[lofty sinew]

that scheme is deliberately colourful because day of the dead is.. that

[light sky]

Is not even "colorful and cheery" like Cod skins

[lofty sinew]

oh. well. idk. unless money is tight, why not? it's one of the best shooters on PC and that isn't likely to change. imho.

[turbid dock]

the day of the dead skin theme is absolutely peak, slander will not be accepted

[light sky]

Is a simbolic skin representing Día de los muertos

[turbid dock]

yummy

[light sky]

And ofc, my favorite theme across all the other agnostic skins

Because it is legit, beautiful

[turbid dock]

yummy

[lofty sinew]

yeah those skins are not in the bad category personally. I use the lemat C one

[tall plover]

Yeah i might've picked a bad example to compare, my bad

But honestly

[whole mist]

Mfw the dia de los muertos skin represents the colors of the holiday 😡

[lofty sinew]

they're even pretty muted considering the scheme imho

[tall plover]

I just wish we've gotten more stuff which is simple and practical looking

[full jungle]

That’s arguably one of the best skin themes they’ve had

Don’t you ever hate it again

[light sky]

Well there are a lot of skins where you can choose from

[lofty sinew]

I also prefer that style. like the sort of stylle that indicates a weapon that is cared for and actually used for it's purpose primarily

[hazy crest]

We have plenty of skins that are simple

[light sky]

And the ones that are on the way.

[whole mist]

I think the craziest skin is probably uhh….uhhhh slipped my mind

[full jungle]

I really hope they bring the drilling shorty and ammo box skin back for that theme

[ancient cave]

the thing is they can only make so many basic skins. Nobody is buying a dlc pack where the guns are essentially base with maybe one change

[full jungle]

Only thing I’m missing for my collection now

[whole mist]

That one crown and king skin lol

[ancient cave]

most of hunts characters are freaks who aren't practical anyway. The only people dressing like how you should for this sorta job are the T3s who tie up their hair and shit

[gleaming dove]

just got 5.3k from a single game

what a time to be alive

[whole mist]

Brothers keep or whatever it’s called

[ancient cave]

take it from a guy who wears black gloves and a black wool coat in 100 degrees black coat is not performing the best he can in lousiana

[whole mist]

When did those show up? I have them but forgot why

[light sky]

Pretty much I own every skin and charm from Traitor's Moon til today, and never felt so happy with a set of skins til Día de los Muertos

[lofty sinew]

black coat is actually a wight so it's appropriate

[light sky]

Tho I there a few nice ones I also like

[full jungle]

I have no idea tbh but I really want them. Don’t even know if they’re event or twitch

[junior marlin]

Anyone know the specific model of sharps that the sparks is based on?

[full jungle]

I’ve seen em and I have every other skin for that set and it’s by far my favourite

[light sky]

Earthshine or Moonflower is something else I would love to be agnostic

[tall plover]

I honestly agree that there is enough simple skins alike to what i've mentioned, but personally, for me it's a problem with some of the guns i love to play with barely receiving any, being slate and frontier

[light sky]

And ofc, Finally got a Catrina Hunter, been praying for one for about 2 years

[tall plover]

And well

[light sky]

Well, that's not something new in the game

[ancient cave]

1874 sharps is a safe bet

[light sky]

Always been like that.

Scottfield P didn't get a skin for years

[tall plover]

Reusing stuff from DLCs for Events and vice versa

For Variants esp

[ancient cave]

crytek does have an issue of choosing what to give skins yes

[full jungle]

Honestly after playing with the Maynard my loyalty to the Lemat is fading

[ancient cave]

wow

you of all people

[full jungle]

This event being a great example

[full jungle]

It’s just so nice

[ancient cave]

I wonder which employee said the conversion NEEDS another skin

[light sky]

Honestly, avto needed a new skin

[full jungle]

Avto sure but the other mosins? Absolutely not

[light sky]

And Mosin Bayonet

Mosin Bayonet only got one

[hazy crest]

The silliest weapon skin is easily the clown trueshot imo

[light sky]

[tall plover]

Yeah, somber gale my beloved. I just wish they had the questline going for a bit longer, cuz i bought the game on the last day of it and only managed to get the dusters skin 😭

[full jungle]

Clown trueshot?

[tall plover]

Had to settle for Green/Yellow reskin

[light sky]

Cyclone, honestly still lacking a skin that fits my taste

[ancient cave]

stupid malone circus skin with a big fur ball on the handle of the gun

[full jungle]

Oh that stupid thing

Forgot about that abomination

[whole mist]

https://tenor.com/view/this-is-madness-300-pazzia-questaèpazzia-gif-18373678

[whole mist]

My least fav skin

[lofty sinew]

lol at the fluffball

[ancient cave]

I want post malone to know I hate him

[hazy crest]

I don’t disagree

[light sky]

It's a funny skin

Honestly I kinda like it

[full jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-funny-cathands-cat-in-hat-cat-with-hands-silly-cat-gif-14981685377760273746

[lofty sinew]

i think it looks pretty decent outside of the fluffball on the handle tbh

[whole mist]

Actually no, my least fav is the clown infantry 73

[tall plover]

I honestly don't understand why choose green cloth with bright gold metal, which look kinda fugly together, when the OG had fitting blue cloth with blue metal on it

Like

[full jungle]

I’m a man of true tastes

[full jungle]

Right that’s where I stop you

The sniper one isn’t bad

[whole mist]

No the base one

[tall plover]

If you're going for reskin, why don't you make both cloth and metal have the same color vibe

[junior marlin]

This man's name is empire of clowns and he doesn't like that skin

[whole mist]

The sniper one is ok

My least fav type of skins, or category, would be the “default but cleaner” skins

[ancient cave]

other than the circus my least favorites are probably centipedes marathon skin

throw up in my mouth

[icy elbow]

wtf is on the butt of the gun lol

[whole mist]

The clean Romero. Crown and king, rival, etc

[junior marlin]

Whatever the sparks from last event is called is awesome imo

[hazy crest]

All the clown skins are stupid

[light sky]

I don't like Super saturated skins (like the Waxed agnostic skins) or broke/Worn guns skins.

[hazy crest]

(Imo)

Don’t fit the aesthetic of the game at all

[full jungle]

Crypt seal

[light sky]

And obviously, very simple skins

[lofty sinew]

i like all the "mildly ornate but nothing crazy + polished wood" skins

[ancient cave]

that entire event was something I would honestly believe to just be some stupid dream I had

[hazy crest]

Dumbass Pom pom

[lofty sinew]

like Allison for the rival

[hazy crest]

looks so stupid

[junior marlin]

Councils verdict was very enticing at 300BB so now occasionally I feel forced to play support class

[tall plover]

Basically my stance yes

[light sky]

Mostly what I like are Gold,silver, Black, carved,flower or fancy design skins.

[whole mist]

I like the flashier skins on tools and consumables

[lofty sinew]

for tools and consumables, the sillier the better for me

[light sky]

Same

[lofty sinew]

i wish i could justify bringing the broken bottle knife

[hazy crest]

When decoy fuse skin. We really needed an 18th uppercut skin this event instead

[light sky]

I got the flower medkit, it's just so good

Then Premio del tonto as chokes

I could flex having Cicada, but rather use that one

[dreamy cave]

Thats what I use

[whole mist]

The ancient Egyptian bee jar looks amazing. Wish I had it.

Dia de los muertos Med kit is beautiful.

some of the flares and flare guns are nice

[tall plover]

We honestly need a new Medkit skin in future events

[lofty sinew]

I mean they make skins for things with high pick rate unsurprisingly. uppercut still out there despite cost and nerfs

[dreamy cave]

I got that jar 🙏🏿

[light sky]

Miner's song for Alert trip mines(one of the best tool skins out there)

[whole mist]

Gimmmeeeee it

[polar ridge]

I know they are not. They totally look like them.

[junior marlin]

New uppercut skin is neat

[whole mist]

Is that the green flare trip mine?

[light sky]

Yeh

[whole mist]

Wish I had that

[dreamy cave]

When they add skin trading. Ill trade you it for your whole inventory. Lol

[whole mist]

Need a new flare color

[light sky]

Neither that, pretty far from lego heads 😭

[dreamy cave]

I also wish i had the green trip

[full jungle]

Give us more event skins 🗣️🗣️

[light sky]

They are just skull shaped beads.

[whole mist]

🗿

[light sky]

Or Bracelet deco

[dreamy cave]

Can you still get the green trips?

[light sky]

Nope

[whole mist]

Whenever I see one go off, especially on night maps I just cry inside

[light sky]

And never will

They are Mythic

[dreamy cave]

https://tenor.com/view/judging-stare-bored-dont-you-dare-annoyed-gif-22904796

[whole mist]

I looked at the store hoping the Turkish Hunter’s alert mines came with a color flare….nope

[dreamy cave]

Let me get a purple trip

[light sky]

I thought they would honestly

[tall plover]

Honestly, do you think some kind of trade or exchange of Mythic skins could work in Hunt lmao? Like a one time trade of whatever Mythic you have for a mythic of your choice from the same category lmao?

[full jungle]

Anyone else dislike this new rarity change?

[tall plover]

Not really

[whole mist]

No

[lofty sinew]

never paid attention to the rarity stuff, couldn't care less

[light sky]

It's back to the OG system.

[tall plover]

LIESSSSS

[full jungle]

I liked the different colours when I looked at my loadout

[tall plover]

OG didn't have mythics

[light sky]

Excluding Mythics

[full jungle]

And now it’s gone

[whole mist]

The system didn’t make much sense imo

[lofty sinew]

*any

[full jungle]

It definitely didn’t but I still liked it

[light sky]

Yeah Mythic is to stop people from asking the same questions about when x stuff is returning

Anything that is mythic is not coming back

Unless they do a recolor

[tall plover]

😭

You don't have to do me like that

[whole mist]

I liked the recolors/remakes they did recently

Similar enough, yet different enough

[tall plover]

The only thing i'm afraid of about the recolors is the fact that a poor choice of color could easily ruin the whole design of the gun

[ancient cave]

the skin system was so good and made a lot of sense

[light sky]

Honestly, Baby Reptilian looks pretty ugly

I like the OG better

[whole mist]

Ngl I hate those skins

[lofty sinew]

meh. not a fan of any of the "lets just wrap some shit around the gun" skins

[light sky]

The Skinner skin I like it more than the OG tho

The recolors of the guns are... Fine

[tall plover]

If they took something like Steelroot and made it silver or gold or something it would kinda ruin the whole skin unless the rest of it is changed to fit the color accordingly

[whole mist]

Now…all i need is a recolor/remake of some Light the Shadows Native American skins and I can die a happy man

Killed some teams the past few days with it. So jealous

[light sky]

Not really missing old skins

There's like, 3 of them I like overall

[ancient cave]

the exile is my plague doctor

[light sky]

None of them are hunters tho

[tall plover]

I'd honestly buy Killian's Chance one because i'm in love with bronze/copper stuff, but i already have the OG, so no need really

[whole mist]

Plague Doctor looks a bit silly to me. I like the corvid skins better

[light sky]

Tho, I would like them just for the fact I am a collector.

I buy every single skin

Every single battlepass 100%

[whole mist]

Only way is to land yourself a position at Crytek now

[light sky]

I will become John Crytek so I can have the Benefactor

[tall plover]

Benefactor is meh for me personally

Dark Miasma rules

[whole mist]

It’s the most rare weapon skin tho, right?

[rare wyvern]

the current bp is kind of a fail tbh

[lofty sinew]

i want the old plague doctor specifically because he looks like a chubby brown penguin

[light sky]

Is not terrible, but not one of my favs.

[rare wyvern]

the event is solid but they got a bunch of trash on it. legit dont want 80% of whats on it

[light sky]

Pretty much this year BPs are ok-ish but nothing to make me go super hyped.

[rare wyvern]

I wish I could get it and not have the empress

[tall plover]

If only Crytek found a loophole to be able to resell old stuff lmao

[whole mist]

They need to spread out what weapons get skins for each event. Keep seeing the mosin and shorty cennie in every pass it seems

[lofty sinew]

was the short cent in the previous event skins?

[whole mist]

That’s what the remakes are for. They’re quite close the the originals but different enough

[hazy crest]

Lots of people say they love the Hunter skins

[rare wyvern]

shorty wasnt in the garden of the witch or jugment of the fool

[hazy crest]

I like em all except the empress which looks pretty goofy imo

[light sky]

Honestly, Moon Trilogy prob has the best BPs cosmetics out there (tho Traitor's Moon had no BP)

[whole mist]

Hmmm. I must’ve been thinking about the mid event Fool vs Judge discount

[lofty sinew]

yeah empress looks goofy. hanged man is cool enough though

[tall plover]

Some of the recolors are good, but honestly, after they butchered Somber Gale into a green/yellow fugly mess i'm kinda short on hope here lol

[rare wyvern]

that one was dope. but yeah

[whole mist]

I think she looks cool

[tall plover]

Imagine if they had a bp which had original skins and some actual tool/consumables skins that don't just have the same skin shared between them or have the skin from guns layered over them

One can dream 🥹

[rare wyvern]

The very first one is the only bp one that I think is great. The hangman is decent I guess. Empress is absolute failed marvel villian trash

[light sky]

Lemme do my BPs Tier List:
1.Serpent's Moon
2.Devil's Moon
3.Desolation's Wake
4.Tide of Shadows
5.Murder Circus

[whole mist]

The 3 people that care about owning truly exclusive skins would complain far too much. Plus the questionable legal issues around marketing that stuff for resale

Hot take: I though Garden of the Witch had a good bp

[rare wyvern]

the only way it would work is if it was some form of bloodbond exchange. It would never be like the cs market

[light sky]

I don't mind the Agnostic skins, in the end is better than getting ammo or story chapters. My issue with the BPs is mostly the style not fitting my taste 100% or animations being too goofy or extravagant.

[tall plover]

Dunno if you misunderstood me. But i mean for the future passes to have skins that we haven't seen in DLCs or in store before, basically new original designs, and new tool/consumable skins, and for none of them to share the same skin, but to be different

[normal radish]

i mean you can easily make ANY skin unique through some well tested mechanics

[whole mist]

OH

[light sky]

The moment theres an agnostic style I dont like, that's around 3 skins I will dislike

[tall plover]

Serpent's Moon is honestly peak, clean stock with woodcutted snake on it and scales engraved in romero's metal. So simple but so pretty

[whole mist]

Veterli spider crawl skin top 5 weapon animation

[light sky]

Besides that, I think the agnostic thing is cool, just need to be polished better.

[rare wyvern]

fuckin trolls

[light sky]

Not buying the same skin 3 times with BB for example, that's bad.

[whole mist]

it’s gooood wym

[normal radish]

https://tenor.com/view/tony-tony-lc-sign-lc-sign-tony-anyways-anyways-gif-2410006858076747179

[lofty sinew]

i mean one thing you can garauntee is, that for every cosmetic thing someone hates, someone else loves it and it is their favourite.

[whole mist]

Also the Judgment charm and this events final charm is peak imo (the hangman skull is weak)

[light sky]

I like weapon spins and hunters touching the weapon (like the Mosin inspect)

[lofty sinew]

i want a weapon inspect when you fumble a spin and drop it on the ground

[normal radish]

honestly they didnt do a bad job on animations

[rare wyvern]

No idea why they gave the new animation to the mako... that shit should be on the terminus 100%

[lofty sinew]

they can call it "woops"

[light sky]

But spider crawl, romero point and a few more I can't even remember because of how irrelevant they are to me, I don't like

[tall plover]

Honestly, i wish they could've cut down on variant spam and just started working on different designs for different variants, because like you said, if you wait for 3 months for a new event and then there's a skin that you don't like, most probably like 1/4 of the BP is already worthless/undesirable for you

[whole mist]

The spear twirl is probably my favorite

[rare wyvern]

facts, they garbage

[normal radish]

romero point is THE BEST

like

[rare wyvern]

that one is kinda cool

[light sky]

If only I used the spear

[lofty sinew]

the emotes are just completely irrelevant to me. you don't see them unless you use them yourself. highly whatever stuff

[light sky]

I'm too busy spamming my Knife inspect

[normal radish]

i use it before attack, and (sometimes) yell CHAARGE

[whole mist]

Ah that’s a good one

[dawn surge]

I like the mako inspect

[light sky]

I used dusters legit only because the Spinning inspect

And boy, I hated dusters

But after the melee changes it feels better

[whole mist]

I like dusters because I don’t have to use my brain on immos

[rare wyvern]

its dope. it just shoulda been on the terminus

[rare wyvern]

pennyshot enjoyer talking about using dusters on an immo... you ok bro?

[light sky]

Mako got a lot of focus this update, so I guess why they gave it the Inspect

[hazy crest]

I only use spear if I have frontiersman because I end up losing one of my spears at some point. My go to is knuckle knife

[light sky]

And the skins

[whole mist]

Knew someone was going to say this i don’t 100% take penny ringer every match 🤯

I like double traps when im Solo

[rare wyvern]

dirty dog

its why i like brawlers so much

[whole mist]

And sometimes I take all traps and no medkits. Stock up on regen shots instead

[light sky]

I stopped using KK and started appreciating the rest of the melees

Just waiting for that Heavy Knife inspect so I can go back to it

Heavy Knife my beloved

[hazy crest]

kk with berserker is very nice

Light attack everything

[rare wyvern]

kk without it is very nice

[light sky]

I can do that with Heavy Knife

[rare wyvern]

always been a duster guy though

[light sky]

1 tap everything but armoreds

[whole mist]

Its swing animation is so satisfying. I love jumping at swingin my mouse into the slash when fighting an armored

[rare wyvern]

heavy knife drinks too much stam

[light sky]

Nah

That's why you light with it

Heavy is just over kill

[lofty sinew]

thats why you bring the yellow juice

[whole mist]

Light attack on heavy knife is blasphemy

[rare wyvern]

its been like 30 prestiges since i used one... ill check it out

[whole mist]

Big swooping slash is the only way

[light sky]

Light already 1 taps 90% of the AI in the game

[whole mist]

Yes but it’s not as satisfying

😡

[light sky]

I just use heavy for armoreds and Killing people

[whole mist]

Gotta jump around and move your mouse like you’re CSGO surfing while swinging it

[light sky]

Fr

Also Heavy Knife got the best skins

[whole mist]

I don’t own a single one sadly

[light sky]

Skins that actually changes the shape of the knife

Scythe and Kukri are my fav

Last Word for Knife is cool too

[whole mist]

I want the scythe

[light sky]

It's a DLC

[whole mist]

Ye

[light sky]

One of the old ones

[rare wyvern]

damn where do you get the kukri?

[whole mist]

Shoudve came with the Reaper dlc that I got tbh. Weird how it’s separate

[light sky]

I think it was Tide of Shadows skin

One of those BPs

[whole mist]

The black and copper one?

[light sky]

Yeh

[whole mist]

It’s nice

[light sky]

With the coins

[rare wyvern]

they would make so much money if they stopped with the fomo. such a terrible trend in all gaming genres

[whole mist]

🙏

Some things are moving in the right direction tho. The community has been asking for more and more content, so they’re going to make events longer and run into one another, which is nice.

[rare wyvern]

all weapon should have a kill counter that unlocks more skins that you then have to buy with bloodbonds.

[whole mist]

Weapon prestige system or stat track type skins that you can unlock

[rare wyvern]

They should just go on a skin making bender for the next few months and give us something like that

[slate spruce]

Alr I have Finally played enough to give my first opinions

It’s alright

[whole mist]

You could have like…3 variants of a skin for…let say the pax. Each of the three getting a different color or more decorative. So when you loot a gun you can go “oh wow this guy has gotten 500 kills with this pax. Cool”

[slate spruce]

Pros:the enemies are really good and have a nice play on the games aspects the flow is great the drip is fantastic

Cons:the progression is really shallow like yall already know and like 75% of the map is useless due to there being nothing to extract besides the points

[raven totem]

not entirely true

[rare wyvern]

How long have you been playing?

[slate spruce]

2-3 days

[raven totem]

a big thing to hunt around for is red perks, meatheads and bears, money, and currently terot cards and the like, and scarce ammos if you so wish

[rare wyvern]

For the record. Its all about the pvp... Everything else is just sauce for the beef. You havent even scratched the surface. I got about 750 hours and im still learning loads about how to best approach situations. There is barely any mud on your boots

[slate spruce]

There’s no point in collecting perks you get 20 points for a good match and you just stuff it in to perks

[raven totem]

death cheat, shadow, remedy.

doctor physician is 15 points, out of the 20 you listed btw

[slate spruce]

I doubt there is more to this game than buy loadout grind character for bloodline grind more die repeat

[raven totem]

which should almost always be your round two grabs

[woven atlas]

unscarce the explosive crossbow crytek

idek why yall did that

[rare wyvern]

its not about the progression, its about the experience. Clutching a trio with your back on the wall is goated. Killing multiple trios as a solo is goated. Your looking at it wrong, Its not about what you can earn or unlock. Its all about what you use and how you use it.

[ocean briar]

Big up shadow, having shadow in the bileweaver nest is crazy. The spiders just wander around you, I heard someone sneaking in while I was looting, ten seconds of sprinting and explosives to rile them all up and then stand baxk while my swarm murdered a team for me, felt like I was the empress

[raven totem]

not everything has to be a mmo

[raven totem]

out of all the scarce traits shadow is by far the strongest, allows for so many things, ever hold an angle right next to a grunt?

use armoreds as cover, bees and water devils don't matter

[rare wyvern]

shadow is wild, absolute game changer

[slate spruce]

But that’s not the point of an extraction shooter that’s just a battle royale 😭😭😭

Which is fair

But I just realized that this game is a battle royale

[ruby plaza]

The Homestead Flechettes dealing 162 damage is a blatent lie and the numbers needs to be changed

[rare wyvern]

You havent played enough to know thats how the game works.... sometimes when the boss is banishing 4 teams of 3 are on site.

[ruby plaza]

It only deals 144 max on thorax

[raven totem]

it's not a battle royal, you can do as you wish, cat and mouse, rat, be aggressive. hunt isn't draconic in what it offers and it doesn't try to be your dopamine bait of endless carrot on a stick

[rare wyvern]

You dont have to take fights if you dont want to but IDK why you are playing if your not trying to clap

[raven totem]

hunt is an objective based extraction shooter

[ruby plaza]

Also, the Dragon Breath deals way more than this numbers and can one shot in distances that a Flechettes can't
please fix

[rare wyvern]

Other extraction shooters legit have you scrounge around for garbage and organize inventories... Id much rather them focus on how the gun fights feel

[slate spruce]

I want a high stakes extraction based shooter where I should go in grab a bunch of crap of random variety then put that into how I fight this is just run in fight people and only grab the bounty cause it’s the objective

[raven totem]

gross

[slate spruce]

I scrounge for garbage to make the gunfights better tho

Better armor guns that kinda thing

[raven totem]

hunt isn't a tarkov wanna be

not to mention tarkov certainly has it's own faults

[dreamy cave]

Hunt rocks

[raven totem]

yup

[rare wyvern]

What you have on your person doesnt make the fights better. You just dont understand what makes the game great. youll have a couple double trio wipes then youll see it. Chances are you wont play long enough to see that day. Hope you stick around

Ive had 3k in my pocket after a prestige a couple times. There are some highstakes fights... they only matter when your broke af though

[rare wyvern]

A goated OG

[raven totem]

I get where officer is comming from, he wants a super looty game. thats ok, but it's also good hunt isn't that imo

[light sky]

Can someone do me a favor and check if the giveaway in #hunt-giveaway-ps is working? (I got a little error while doing it)

[raven totem]

I like the direction on where crytek is going on the loot in match only things so far

[raven totem]

no access

[light sky]

Need a PS role

[rare wyvern]

If they had me searching through containers I think it would actually be garbage

[raven totem]

I like those games in thir own right, but sadly they're all tarkov wannabees

[rare wyvern]

maybe a couple cabinets that could have nades or something, but a tarkov like backpack with trash loot to sell would be gross

[raven totem]

no one is doing anything super new in that aspect for the most part

arc is certainly on the radar and hunger

[rare wyvern]

arena breakout isnt bad. I enjoyed it... The gunfights just dont feel very good... TTK is way too high once you move up the ranks

[light sky]

Seems like it's working fine, so I will rest

[raven totem]

arena seems fun enough, not something I'm going to stick around real long for

[rare wyvern]

its a half decent tarkov clone that respects your time. ID choose hunt over that 95% of the time. Fights like these I cant seem to find anywhere else

Digital crack

[raven totem]

hunt is very unique in that aspect

also does pvevp the best

by miles

[rare wyvern]

MILES

[raven totem]

even tarkov is a joke imo in that sense

[rare wyvern]

its pretty sad actually. I can see what the allure is but... I wouldnt play hunt if I had to google shit just to enjoy a round

scavs are garbo... aimbotting npcs doesnt make good gameplay

IDK most things arent for everyone, cater to your audience. Most people just dont really know what they want

RIP dark and darker. They were on the right path when it first came around

[clear fossil]

i like the perchta dlc skins
but the animations are scuffed
sometimes one part of their clothing starts to float upwards when running

and that is so disturbing

[rare wyvern]

I kinda want that one. Does it block vision or does it just bother you?

[fallow epoch]

they need to make 7 stars just for me

[stoic pendant]

BROO when are they gonna add the kpop demon hunters in the game??

[clear fossil]

if its about the perchta skin, it just pops up barely into view but then i turn to look down and see it flaoting so its just annoying

[raven totem]

juicing all the clanners?

[fallow epoch]

my only deaths are trades

[astral moss]

When 9 stars...

[fallow epoch]

just gooned for like 6 hours and just had my first loss

traded with a chinese player

rip

but ive traded earlier and necroed

so this guy is chinese name and all his friends are in chinese language

why does he get to play on servers across the globe with 200 ping.
i've ran into this guy so many times already

[ocean briar]

What’s that?

[light sky]

PlayStation

[raven totem]

turned on hdr, time to experience hunt in a different .... light

[turbid dock]

hunt looks beautiful in hdr

[sinful aurora]

hah, i see what you did there.

[raven totem]

trading has a 75 ms cut off heads up

[fallow epoch]

valorant has 0ms

[astral moss]

And ?

[hazy crest]

Having high ping is nothing but a disadvantage

[fallow epoch]

that's a crazy take. It's even an advantage in Valorant because of server rewinding.
and regardless of it being an advantage/disadvantage, trade windows are nuts

[sinful aurora]

deleting bullets is not necessarily better.
a 75 ms window is practically simultaneously.

[astral moss]

Why is bro talking about the gen Z game.

[fallow epoch]

75ms is very significant. In competitive shooters, according to riot at least, its like 20ms difference between the dying and killing player on average.

[hazy crest]

It’s midday on a weekday his servers are probably dead

[polar ridge]

You mean The Ghul from the Fallout show? 🙂

[astral moss]

Bro thing he is best player ever.

[fallow epoch]

yea im the first 7 star

[astral moss]

Can i ask you your load-out ?

Just to test something.

[fallow epoch]

i run everythiung

rn nagant officer carbine and silenced nagant, throwing knife, medkit, 4x weak vital, that's it
