hunt-general

[wintry ferry]

Tbh if there were other games that scratch the specific western itch and gun mechanics of Hunt I would've dropped Hunt ngl

[astral moss]

Crouch walking in general lol

[outer cloak]

Same

Not to bash hunt tho it's pretty good at doing what it aims at the end of the day

Devs just lack transparency to the level of ea basically

[left prairie]

LeMat Carbine?

[mild flower]

Lemat Carbine?

[left prairie]

its in the game

[mild flower]

uhuh

[raven totem]

there will never be another

[left prairie]

is it good tho

[mild flower]

yes

it's very good

[for a compact ammo gun at least]

one of my favourite weapons

put fmj on it and you get penetration better than long ammo and still have pretty good muzzle velocity

[outer cloak]

Hunger doesn't scratch the western itch but aestheticly it does very close tbh

[wintry ferry]

Gun mechanics though

[outer cloak]

(minus those funky as fuck armor animations. God I hope they fix those)

I literally just said not the western but the aesthetic;-;

[wintry ferry]

Hunt hit a specific frame of time where you have RoF that's not fast enough to gun people down but fast enough to reward follow up precision or whatever

[raven totem]

it certainly peaks my intrest, but there will never be another hunt.

[wintry ferry]

So you have stuff like Sparks + Follow up

[outer cloak]

Hunt is the ONLY game that I will say is genuinely good as it is bad

[raven totem]

from what I've seen of hunger I think the devs are underestimating good shots

[mild flower]

dark souls remastered

[outer cloak]

YEA CAUSE WTF IS THAT SEMI GUN

[raven totem]

you also shoot like a fucking lazer beam in it

[outer cloak]

Psychoghost FUCKED up that trio without melee

[outer cloak]

Nah unlike hunt that's skill diff

[astral moss]

I think most of the weapon kill in 3 bullet as i see.

Melee look more rewarding and its a good thing.

[outer cloak]

Down*

[raven totem]

psycho said melee is viable but I've doubts

[mild flower]

as good as it is bad;
the first half is a masterpiece of world and level design. the second half is awful, although the combat is still fun

[astral moss]

In hunger it look more than viable.

Like the 2 character that are melee centred have actually really strong comp.

[mild flower]

hunger is a hero shooter?

[outer cloak]

Hunt severely struggles from good game bad devs. I pray hunger doesn't suffer the same

[astral moss]

Its more like an extract shooter with rpg mecanic.

[astral moss]

I mean, aren't you the one that complain about the red hearth beat of the boss ?

[outer cloak]

Yes

[astral moss]

Maybe ask yourself why you struggle this much.

[outer cloak]

I'm 6 star solo player

[astral moss]

Cause i don't think its actually the game fault.

[outer cloak]

I haven't died in like

16 matches

I'm the rattest of rats mate

[astral moss]

And me 37, but what's the deal here ?

[outer cloak]

I just said good game.

At the end of the day I Love hunt for all it is even if I don't agree with certain mechanics

I genuinely do not care for the devs tho

[frigid ibex]

The spam gun is heavy ammo

[astral moss]

Hunt is a great game.

[frigid ibex]

It deals high damage

[outer cloak]

They consistently say shit. Never do it, and pray that we forget as they never mention it again

And add random as fuck shins like every 2 weeks - month

[frigid kestrel]

“The kid” is based of the billy the kid right?

[outer cloak]

Yes

[frigid kestrel]

Thanks

[astral moss]

Great damage yes, but i watch the pvp gameplay of psyho and even the "kompas" kill in like 3 bullet i thing, 2 in the head.

[frigid ibex]

With a semi auto that's fast ttk

[frigid kestrel]

Its like 2 heads

And 1 head and 2 bodies shot

[outer cloak]

I think the right melee build with weapon lets you 2 swing full armor tho

[frigid kestrel]

Was most of his kills

Mind you they didnt have the absolute best armor too

[astral moss]

I know but imagine hugo that can ignore a shot and take 50% of the damage at the same time, it look pretty insane.

[frigid ibex]

I hate armor in shooters

[frigid kestrel]

Your telling me.

One shot head shot please

[astral moss]

there isn't that in hunger i think.

[frigid kestrel]

There isnt

[frigid ibex]

2 is fine. If it's 2 shots for everybody and not one guy with good loot that requires 5 headshots

[frigid kestrel]

Its 2 shot for most if im correct

[astral moss]

or maybe without armor with specific weapon.

[frigid ibex]

The first trailer showed head armor that reduced headshot damage

[astral moss]

Pov: Hugo with his ult.

[outer cloak]

Also everyone tries not to compare the two or says not to...

It's literally only fucking hunt streamers that have gameplay videos and it's closest cousin in the genre for pacing and similar gameplay is... Hunt

[astral moss]

idk but when psyho show us the comp of the character i was like "But wait, Hugo is broken."

[frigid ibex]

Just play Hugo with ranged weapons

Easy

[astral moss]

i mean, his comp are really melee centred so maybe its because of that.

[outer cloak]

You literally see him ping someone in the head in that video with the semi (the person didn't have a helmet) and he doesn't one tap down them btw

[astral moss]

Like i can tank a good amount of shot.

[outer cloak]

So I don't think headshots insta down

[raven totem]

MAXIMUM ARMOR

[outer cloak]

They have the absolute worst armor animations I've seen in my fucking life

Genuinely so bad

[astral moss]

I think that's a good thing, imagine lose all your gear by some dude camping a bush.

[outer cloak]

... Yea I would never....

Me a BushWhack hunter waiting with a Xbow in a muhfuggin bush

[wintry ferry]

Doesn't matter in Hunt because everyone's a millionaire at this point

[outer cloak]

Me a BushWhack hunter waiting with a primed concertina in a bush****

[frigid ibex]

Not me, I'm only a semi millionaire

[astral moss]

That, + losing your hunter isn't really a big deal anyway.

Like you die, you go next instantly.

[outer cloak]

Especially when you have 9 more levels 50s in your roster

[astral moss]

I am used to play level 1 hunter anyway.

[wintry ferry]

Haha yeah... just 9....

[frigid ibex]

All my hunters except one got over 100 trait points

[raven totem]

i RUN MY 50S IN GIGA KITS

[frigid ibex]

And they are 50

[outer cloak]

Anyone else love the martini riposte or just me?

[raven totem]

I play a mix

[wintry ferry]

I had to buy more hunter slots and dark tribute gave me new ones

[raven totem]

I like running early levels, max, ones that have cooked

[wintry ferry]

so I filled out with lvl1 plague docs

[raven totem]

like 3 years ago

[frigid ibex]

The only time I ran around with my storage hunters was when gunsmuggler was ratsmuggler

Rotjaw event

[astral moss]

Have an insane amount of 50 level hunter is difficult when you play only cqc.

[raven totem]

1 in 3?

[outer cloak]

I refuse to give any micro transactions to crytek.the already got like 50 bucks from me and that's to much. They need to stop relying off in game cosmetic dlc to stay alive. They can't leach off WarFace or hunt forever

[frigid ibex]

I have a method for you that includes pve and envelopes

[raven totem]

oh well, so anyways

[raven totem]

legit talk just triple stack with friends, and run avtos as meme

[astral moss]

I dont think i am gonna farm meathead just to have some trait point...

[outer cloak]

Triple stack all running 2 chain conversions and fanning on free hunters

[frigid ibex]

Them said melee player

[outer cloak]

Not hitting shit but battlefield 3 level suppress

[raven totem]

reddit says heavy knife is better, must be true\

[outer cloak]

Them said cqc player. Shotguns still an option

I have 3 kills with decoys

[frigid ibex]

It is better in one aspect. Light attack is completely silent if it one taps AI.

But if that's worth it is another question

[raven totem]

only in the head

[frigid ibex]

Ye

With silent killer mind you

[astral moss]

Melee player ???
Where ?

[wintry ferry]

Even when I was 4-5* and played primarily Romero-Uppercut I had a lot of maxouts

[raven totem]

also technically not compleatly silent

[wintry ferry]

It's more of managing your hunters

[frigid ibex]

I took cqc and instant thought of melee. My bad

[raven totem]

I'm super close to 300 max hunters now, it's playing the numbers game correctly

[outer cloak]

Okay but for like 3 years they were the best shotgun and pistol in game

Arguably still best pistol

[deep fog]

Pax is better

[wintry ferry]

Lmao remember when Romero was the only actual good shotgun

[outer cloak]

I agree but only bc I'm a sloot for the trueshot

[wintry ferry]

Tho tbf Romero HC has been good for a long time as well

[outer cloak]

Nah you're tripping the rival was always viable. Just not as good

[frigid ibex]

30% battery. Need battery for stopping my parking ticket tonight so bye bye

Digital stuff sucks sometimes

[raven totem]

ehhh depended what you where going againts, now days it straight up rivals fulls

[tranquil charm]

anyone want to play? PC NAE

[rose elm]

Nice. Not only crytek completely killed the flashbangs, they did it again. The hit indicator is bugged again

[raven totem]

Rip flashbangs

[raven totem]

bye dizz, have fun in the south pole

[mild flower]

what's a flashbang

[outer cloak]

Well there like.. inept as a company

[deep fog]

I genuinely have not seen a single one since the change

[tranquil charm]

no ones on there

[raven totem]

damn that sucks, we don't play, we just bitch about hunt here. good luck

[wintry ferry]

I kinda hate that Romero isn't as good anymore relatively

because I always felt it was the most "honest" shotgun as well

Now Spec fills out the same long barrel buckshot niche but fires way faster lmao

[mild flower]

rival and specter have always been good

wait was specter added after romero

i forget

thought it was a day 1 thing

[rose elm]

Because they sucked. But at least they fixed the hit marker (for a while). Now I take to the quick game and it's bugged... Returning bugs is the spiritual name of crytek

[raven totem]

for 1.0 yes, but originally it was added in beta as an inbetween between romero and cnk

slate was later on a bit

[wintry ferry]

Huh I just checked my roster I only have 45 maxouts on my shelf left

I've been spamming all my plague doc maxouts and getting them killed lmao

There were like 15 of these guys and I would generate more every now and then

[jagged parcel]

I started playing ghost of yotei… uh..
Shrine maiden with katana and bow is kinda fun

[outer cloak]

Still find it insanely dirty how crytek refused to pay crytek USA employees paychecks. Waiting til there boss left and most of the company quit here in the states. Closed it. Took the ip they were working on. And made something completely different after USA literally put there heart and soul into it

Then they basically had to form a new studio from the remnants of who was left. Remake yet another engine like they had before. Remade the game but had to change the art direction entirely bc the IP they created was snagged

ironicly tho they did name there game

"Remnant from the ashes"

[outer cloak]

My friend said it was NOTHING like ghost of tsushima? That true?

I kinda wanted to look but I don't wanna spoil anything for myself

[stone basin]

I wish I still had a playstation just to play ghost of yotei

[junior marlin]

this gives mad maynard silencer

[jagged parcel]

The story is very different. Gameplay wise it’s mostly the same, but with more variety in weapons. Weapons are like stances, but… I’m only using the Yari. Because it’s the coolest.

[outer cloak]

That sounds fuckin awesome

Ty

May snag

If it's a 60$ drop and not a 70$ drop

[wintry ferry]

Don't project lmao

[outer cloak]

U refuse to pay 70$ for a base game. I am a poor working class man

[wintry ferry]

Same

[outer cloak]

Now if that gets me a preorder bundle with a first free dlc and physical goodies (battlefield 3-4 type shit)

THEN, AND ONLY THEN. will you get me extra 10$

But I want a cheap dogtag or SOMETHING

[strong moon]

i am once again requesting a "hire random legendary hunter" button

[raven totem]

my brain twitches everytime I see long fmj

[mild flower]

why do you need 2 ammo boxes for this?????

[raven totem]

in this case it makes sense but it still happens

[mild flower]

long fmj is kinda good now in a lot of cases

since pen nerf

[junior marlin]

why bring explosive bullet when i cant spam it

[raven totem]

the cons in this case still otweigh the pros imo

[mild flower]

occupying 2 whole tool slots just for your secondary is just an odd decision

[junior marlin]

hey man, it was for the gimmick

[mild flower]

figured you were using the explo to finish low hunters from the sparks or the other way around

[raven totem]

it's a meme

[mild flower]

yea thats fair i just have a vendetta against ammo box

[junior marlin]

i remember not getting a singular kill and only getting assists for my teammates kills

[mild flower]

understood

[raven totem]

it's about the only thing uppercut explosive is used for, is this exact loadout

[mild flower]

it's not so necessary on sparks because it doesn't really help it hit any important damage breakpoints it doesnt hit already afaik

[raven totem]

ironically best on sparks in that regard because it helps it maintain it's 149

[mild flower]

nah it can be nice to aimpunch people around corners before peeking and fanning into their face
not great, but it happens

[raven totem]

where long ammo is concerned

I mean sure, run long fmj, literally not my problem

[mild flower]

Doesn't it still reduce damage by 10% on penetration even with fmj

[outer cloak]

I personally run sparks, no secondary, and decoys

If I get a body shot your dying to the pebble

That or I simply was not meant to kill you

Simple as

[raven totem]

ya but on most wallbangs that are follow ups you're going to finish them off with base long anyway.

medium fmj, goated, long fmj, misunderstood noobtrap imo

[deep fog]

Sparks HV ammo when

I need an 900 m/s sniper for my bush camping kda farming build im working on

[raven totem]

sparks aperture when?

[raven totem]

run cent sniper hv

[deep fog]

Genuinely yes, i would actually run the sparks if it had an aperture version

[mild flower]

uppercut and haymaker are the exceptions probably

[raven totem]

nope

they really aren't

[outer cloak]

I always pay extra for level aperture

I would pay an extra fucking K for the nitro if it just let me flip the fucking sight. I'm sitting on millions anyways

[raven totem]

if you're itching for fmj might as well run trueshot

trueshot fmj = uppercut > uppercut fmj

[outer cloak]

I firmly disagree. I love haymaker with the fmj. It just FEELS stronger and honestly that's enough to make me run it religiously

[raven totem]

disagree all you want

again, isn't my problem at the end of the day

[outer cloak]

Fair

Why run fmg at all tho when you can run shotbolt

[raven totem]

shotbolt is fun

[mild flower]

If you're already only using them for close to mid range, the extra 2-tap potential through walls can be worth it

[raven totem]

though I typically run either uppercut or trueshot fmj with is

[raven totem]

as someone who wallbangs a lot, base long does good enough at that

[mild flower]

Sure but the difference between 3 shots to kill and 2 shots to kill can be huge

[raven totem]

because no matter what version of long you run, you don't have the ammo to sustain fishing walls

[outer cloak]

I agree unless it's a pistol. I'm 1000% sure fmj makes pistols like UPPERMAT and uppercut two tap instead of 3 through walls at medium range

(actually thinking on this it's onetap headshot no matter what through walls so maybe fmj is pointless on long ammo)

[raven totem]

you wallbang people at medium range often? enough to warrent running it?

[outer cloak]

Bro I run crossbow 98% of the time

[raven totem]

even then most good wallbang spots are one ply

[outer cloak]

Id your behind a wall I'm not even on your radar

[mild flower]

Ah the classic "everything is pointless because you can just hit head!"

[astral moss]

Who wallbang even ?
Outdated strat.

[outer cloak]

I mean. Hit fucking head

[raven totem]

more than that and you're fishing, you'll want something like vetteli fmj or lemat c fmj

those are good at fishing for wallbangs, not long

[outer cloak]

I personally run crossbow and a terminus with flechette and levering so after that crossbow hits you in limbs or chest the fucking levering kills you from hitting you with even like 1-2 darts and the terminus spam is honestly goated for that

[outer cloak]

It's the one chance aim + no aim combo

[astral moss]

Doesnt crossbow one shot already ?

[outer cloak]

In chest past like 40-50 meters no

[raven totem]

I see your game wiley, I bid ye a good evening

[outer cloak]

But bleed leaves it very close

[astral moss]

Is he ragebaiting ?

[outer cloak]

I am a rat man

[raven totem]

if not close enough

[outer cloak]

I never not once said i was good

[astral moss]

Yeah i think the same.

[outer cloak]

If I am it's not on purpose

That's literally my loadout and how I'm 6star

[astral moss]

Exactly what a ragebaiter would say.

[outer cloak]

Try it for yourself and see what I mean man

Crossbow, regular bolts

Terminus shorty, flechette

[astral moss]

Bro if you want to 2 tap there is far better load-out than crossbow/terminus.

[mild flower]

Try Springfield dumdum

[outer cloak]

I also like than

But the terminus lets me panic spray and apply pressure with bleed

[mild flower]

Oh I mean instead of the crossbow

[outer cloak]

If I really want a cancerous 1/2 tap load out

Bow and drilling

[outer cloak]

Fuck no

Crossbow is literally my baby

[astral moss]

Like i dont blame your load-out cause i play bomb lance afterall, i blame the logic behind it.

[mild flower]

I love 1865 + rival for these

[outer cloak]

I begged for like 2 years for a deadeye variant of the Xbow then used it like twice because I genuinely feel I love with the sights and learned the drop my heart

[mild flower]

People can play whatever silly loadouts they want :p

[outer cloak]

Also I swear to God the reason I'm so rich is bc the Xbow

At one point shit was like

40 bucks

[junior marlin]

i keep seeing 5 star solos in my 2.5 star lobbies

and then they dont push and just miss with their dumbass subsonic bullets at like 2km range

[mild flower]

They sniping you from outside the map

Attempting to

[junior marlin]

bro think its sniper elite

[dreamy cosmos]

https://tenor.com/view/christmas-granny-granny-christmas-christmas-granny-ryan-gif-15213617761926717662

[junior marlin]

i got reported

[deep fog]

You aren't really playing hunt unless your steam profile is full of people accusing you of cheating because you aimed a gun

[solid mantle]

bro this is not fucking funny anymore

4th time in a row getting wiped out by fucking mmr 6 solos

in mmr 3 lobby

[junior marlin]

was he running a maynard?

[solid mantle]

no nagant pistol

3 shots 3 kills

[dreamy cosmos]

truly a bruh moment for mmr matchmaking

[solid mantle]

4 times in a FUCKING ROW

[junior marlin]

you obviously gotta go up against 5 star solos because they apparently cant aim for shit

[wicked fox]

Good Morning Hunters ☕️

[tame magnet]

That’s the meta weapon. Can’t hate it

[solid mantle]

i mean i love it too i have nothing against it

at the end every weapon is deadly here

[astral moss]

Bro i cant be hackusated i play melee...

[spiral moon]

maby stupid question why we have still server select in game?

[astral moss]

Cause being stuck on one server is boring.

Imagine peoble in OCE.

[tranquil dawn]

I got my cheek clapped by 6 star in 3 star lobby again

This suck

[junior marlin]

what larry said brah

[astral moss]

[tranquil dawn]

I’m saying that uh

Dude pull some kind of impossible maneuver

Honestly its kinda cool

[astral moss]

Another complain about the matchmaking and i think i am gonna do a smurf to play hammer only.

[spiral moon]

no but we can remove it? makes no sense for me if 10 out from 12 players in my last match are not from my server region. and make eu only server would save them so much mone for servers

[astral moss]

Since ping abuse doesnt exist anymore i dont see any problem of being on another server.

[uneven cargo]

u are at an advantage with 3 people against a solo, play with you team and tripple push him, he will die unless you have the aim of a 55 year old man

[tame magnet]

So you’d rather have 2 teams in a match?

[astral moss]

Yes but he is a 6 star so he is unbeatable, the game is rigged...

[deep fog]

Volume of fire advantage is real

Even the highest 6 atar is vulnerable to getting clipped by two bullets within a second

[spiral moon]

befor i get guys with vac bans in my 6* matches yes, miss the ping mm games got my most fun games with them in 6* shame the remove it.

[deep fog]

They might be aim better but its 3 guns v 1

[astral moss]

Must be the only thing 6* are good at.
Aiming.

[keen ermine]

Is the Uppercut good again? I haven't played this game since like December last year

[sacred lion]

no

[deep fog]

I mean

Its not bad

Its just not the defacto best anymore

Its still good

[keen ermine]

i dunno it was p bad for a minute there

[sacred lion]

it still has horrible drop range and 123 damage

[solid mantle]

thats the biggest bullshit you can say in Hunt, there is NO advantage 3v1 when you in a random team vs someone who is used to fight agains trios...

[tame magnet]

He’s not wrong

If a trio pushes me all at once, it’s more difficult to take on all 3 at once versus each one of them head peeking and playing scared

[solid mantle]

i mean thats why rachtaZ, neenoh and other famous hunt streamer are so famous, they fighting against whole lobbys , what the fuck is making a trio consisting out of casuals a difference

[tame magnet]

And if you watch their fights, you’ll noticed they don’t get rushed

People play scared

[keen ermine]

Those guys are also the top 0.001% of players

[solid mantle]

even trhe top 10% are far better than any casual mmr3 random dou!

[astral moss]

They are famous for destroying 5* and low 6* + most of them are deranking to make content and play against headless chicken.

You can play against the best player in the world, if 3 people are pushing him at the same time he cant do anything.

[solid mantle]

you mean against random mmr3 trios?...

[keen ermine]

People get so scared to push in this game man

I see it all the time in 3*

[astral moss]

Like just tell your team mate to push him at the same time and if they do then leave the fight.

[solid mantle]

well i am not , but that don prevent you from getting headshottet

[astral moss]

No sh/t bro ?
Thats exactly why i am salty every time i play in random.

[tame magnet]

It’s the same on trio v trio. The moment you get a kill and make it a 3v2, you push the duo

You have the advantage

[astral moss]

Those people just crouchwalk the entir match that's insane.

[keen ermine]

I swear you gotta get to like 5* before you start getting teammates who are willing to push

[modern pebble]

I am seriously asking

[glossy meteor]

LMAO

[proven grove]

Pft, every squad needs at least one sniper, one pusher and a guy that rotates between the two.

[astral moss]

Most people doesnt know that.

[modern pebble]

Why would u ever take steel balls over harpoon

[tame magnet]

Idk why people get the 3v2 advantage and still sit back

[keen ermine]

Meanwhile the fuckin "3 star fun star" people insist that wacky shit happens at that level instead of total cowardice

[glossy meteor]

fastest game ever, i extracted at 2.45

[astral moss]

Steel balls are better for very close combat.

[modern pebble]

But how

The harpoon will one shot too

[astral moss]

Cause you dont need to aim exactly.

[keen ermine]

Slower velo on the harpoon

and drop

[modern pebble]

At a range where drop matters your steel ball damage will suck

[astral moss]

Steel balls rng is that stupid that if he is within 10m of you he take insane damage.

[modern pebble]

So they’re not even better just more forgiving

[astral moss]

For corner shot too, like harpoon isnt that accurate when you are running all the fight.

[modern pebble]

Wdym

I jumpshot with that shit

It feels accurate enough

[astral moss]

Fast peaking.

[astral moss]

It really isn't, steel ball are far better for consistent one shot up close.

[modern pebble]

I hit shots from over 25m fairly consistently

Idk maybe im lucky

But it doesn’t feel inaccurate at all

[strong moon]

shadow should have a little icon on the lower left when you've got it

like the Devil buff or the Chariot timeout

[solid mantle]

most of the tme i turn back to title screen after 1:00 becasue of the fucking spawnfights every 2nd round 😄

[astral moss]

I usually play both on my bomb lance, harpoon for outside and steel balls for very close fight.

[mild flower]

Steel balls are more forgiving yeah. You don't have to worry as much about missing or hitting limbs

It seems silly at first but then you realise if you don't count being easier as a proper upside then most things in the game are pointless because something being good is just something being easier than something else. You can win with anything, some things are just easier
So varying difficulty to use is a very valid and important balance aspect

[solid mantle]

WTF ?! how did i got at mmr4 now of all times?! i died the whole day and ranked up wtf is this shit

[modern pebble]

yes but a majority of things have proper upsides and downsides besides “easier”

even assuming perfect aim you can’t do with a nagant what you can do with a Berthier

penetration, muzzle velocity, damage falloff

[mild flower]

Don't need penetration if you just play perfectly to always have an angle and shoot the enemy as soon as they're exposed

Damage falloff doesn't matter if you always headshot

Muzzle velocity does add luck to hitting at range but even then if you're good enough you can control the distance you fight at to never have luck involved, balance is things being easier or harder for certain playstyles and scenarios

If you're bringing a bomb lance in the first place, may as well use anything else and just headshot right? No, because hitting body with lance is easier

Same with steel balls, hitting the rough area of the hunter is easier than getting a direct torso shot

Wall of text killed chat, my bad

[strong moon]

they should add a big frying pan as a world melee weapon that spawns on like stoves and campsites

[ivory otter]

Do we know what the Twitch drops will be this time?

[strong moon]

yes, they will be a set of cosmetic and in-game rewards provided after a certain amount of watch time on Twitch

[uneven cargo]

youre just wrong

use the coms options or lfg or make friends any 3v1 has the advantage and using fucking rachta as an example is disingenuous

[solid mantle]

you dont get the point.

[crystal bay]

Let's remember to keep it respectful

Similar skill level for sure the 3v1 easily has the advantage and they need to coordinate it

Sometimes in hunt though there are times where the skill gap is pretty wide and so even the advantage of numbers is not quite enough to make up for the skill difference

[uneven cargo]

just play more and get better than idk cya

[crystal bay]

Plenty of reasons for differences in skill

Saying that is all it takes is disingenuous

[solid mantle]

fixing the matchmaking would be nice , matchmaking based on K/D is bullshit

[astral moss]

Omg still complaining...

[strong moon]

so the matchmaking is not based on K/D

your kill/death ratio will factor in only indirectly

in that a strong player will have a higher k/d and likely higher MMR

but the actual MMR calculation is not K/D based

[astral moss]

I am gonna do it i swear #hunt-general message

[strong moon]

do what

[crystal bay]

Just be bold and do it on your main

[strong moon]

get everyone a very thoughtful gift

[astral moss]

I am not sure i can enjoy that anymore.

Like at peak hour its difficult to don't play my main weapon ngl.

[light sky]

It is not.

[crystal bay]

Well if you play it enough, it'll either work or you'll eventually get to a place where it will work

[astral moss]

Yeah but did i want to suffer the hammer gameplay...

[crystal bay]

I have been running into more mosin trios these days but even then just running whatever you feel like running is fun. At least for me, even if I don't win, trying to kill em with different weapons is fun for me

[rose elm]

Wtf is this bs BC matchmaking. We're a team of 2-3-2 and we're constantly slaughtered by teams of 5-6s or terminator 6 solos

[uneven cargo]

as a 6 star player, i would HATE stricter match making, if you ever hit 6 star youll understand its draining constantly going against sweats all the time so the fact that solo matches have a lower mmr is refreshing a little even still being. at a disadvantage

[astral moss]

Yeah but just running in compound and dying without real counter play cause you have 0 range is a bit frustrating.

Like hammer isn't a bad melee weapon, but its really mid.

[crystal bay]

Oh for sure I can see how hammer would be frustrating for it and if you bring some other gun that is what you'll end up using all the time

[strong moon]

you're better than you think, you're just remembering the losses more than the wins

[uneven cargo]

true

they wouldnt put u in these matches if your matching macking didnt reflect it

[astral moss]

I am actually really good at the game wdym ?

[uneven cargo]

the system isnt broken

[karmic citrus]

Best way to use hammer is to completely disregard your safety and well-being, pop a stamina shot, and full send push
You will die. BUT it's really fucking funny

[rose elm]

What are you talking about? Yes, we win BC matches from time to time when we're matched against similar teams. But then, every 3-4 games we're matched with teams we have 0 chances against.

[strong moon]

i say this a lot but there isn't a mathematical solution to matchmaking for something like Hunt, it will always have "felt" mismatches

[strong moon]

see sometimes it FEELS like you had no chance, when the other team just had a lucky combination of maneuvers, shots, etc.

[uneven cargo]

its testing if u have gotten better enough to start WINNING those harder matches, u cant expect your mmr to go up if it never puts you against higher mmr players. what is the disconnect here? i win 3 matches, game sees im winning, it tries putting me in a harder match, i loose and cry on discord? its literally the mmr system working

[rose elm]

I'm totally ok when we lose to 3-4 stars, 5 occasionally. But how is this even remotely fair when we're slaughtered without any chances by a ninja 6 star solo?

[strong moon]

like i get it, sometimes you get vaporized by a Hunt mutant, but the thing is, those Hunt mutants aren't always playing with adderall and NVIDIA profile inspector, and they lose too

[astral moss]

Usually what melee gameplay is.

[karmic citrus]

I hate MMR because SBMM is evil and the reason for all the bad in the world

[uneven cargo]

shit happens, go next and forget about it

[uneven cargo]

id be fine with NO mmr at all

[strong moon]

i honestly think sink-or-swim might be better for everyone, if the player base was large enough

[astral moss]

"Without any chance" is a bit much, like 6* aren't unkillable, especially in trio.

[uneven cargo]

= chance to get stomped or slam the match

[rose elm]

So, the bottom line is: sometimes we're fucked without any chances, might as well just dismiss the hunter with all the gear, right?

[uneven cargo]

tru

[uneven cargo]

thats dumb as fuck man

[karmic citrus]

Honestly, games like this shouldn't have any amount of SBMM. There should be no reason I exfil twice in an extraction shooter, and get shit stomped every raid after

[uneven cargo]

if youre not gonna be realistic why are u even arguing

[uneven cargo]

tru

[light sky]

This is not cod, that's not how our sbmm works

[uneven cargo]

our?

[strong moon]

i would be interested in seeing the statistics on how accurate the match predictions are via the SBMM model they use

[rose elm]

Maybe because of something like that? And no, we're not derankers and we don't rock at BC

[strong moon]

like how reliable is glicko-2 for this

[light sky]

Well, the sbmm

I'm eepy lemme be

[uneven cargo]

dude u guys killed one of them and u are going duo vs trio

ofc youre at a disadvantage

[crystal bay]

I want to say something is buggy with the MMR currently

[uneven cargo]

6 star is a WIDE bracket and low 6 stars are far worse than high 6 stars

[crystal bay]

Being 3* duo with 5* match MMR feels really off

[uneven cargo]

i agree

[strong moon]

i would say the engagement based tweaking they do on the backend is probably bad

it's why the matchmaking can feel like a roller coaster ride of stomps or cakewalks

it's not pure glicko-2, they have a hot streak/cold streak modifier, and we don't know what it is

[crystal bay]

For sure, I just think that it's not working properly right now either way

[rose elm]

So in other words, the game makes you lose if you win too much. Like, wtf dude, now it's your turn to suffer

[crystal bay]

Unless for some reason the system is so confident they belong in 3* but their winstreak/current skill has made it so the modifier thinks they should be 5*

[crystal bay]

I don't quite know how much I believe in it being EBMM, your match mmr is based on win/loss streak but also if you're doing good and winning your MMR should be going up anyway

and then you'll face harder matches

then vice versa

[strong moon]

kinda. if you're playing better/worse than you usually do, the game will weight your anticipated skill level higher/lower normally in a confidence-factored elo system, there's no modification for streaks

[crystal bay]

which is just how matchmaking works normally

[astral moss]

That's not true, you are just coping here.

[strong moon]

the EBMM seems to kick in after 3-4 matches, and it's definitely a light touch, but without it a long time player would not have noticeable changes in match quality in after just a few wins/losses in a day

[uneven cargo]

wtf is ebmm

[strong moon]

because you just odn't move up/down that fast once the system is confident in you

engagement based matchmaking

[uneven cargo]

🤓

wtf is engagement

[strong moon]

it's a temporary modifier based on hot/cold streak. they said they introduced it in a blog post.

"engagement" being the committment to a play session by players

they want you to be facing appropriate challengers

[cursive hazel]

The game has 8000 ppl online spread out over different regions you will not get perfect matchmaking

[dusky spoke]

Basically its the "you're having too much fun" switch

[strong moon]

too many stomps, you get bored and stop playing. too many cakewalks, you get bored and stop playing.

[dusky spoke]

Couple good games and you start meeting those dudes that your pals warned you about that time might be cheating but isn't really sure

[crystal bay]

Idk, I meet those guys first game of the day or even when on a losing streak

[dusky spoke]

We all have that friend that thinks everyones a cheater lol

[karmic citrus]

My favorite feature. Every game has it, even if the devs never implemented ut

I personally refer to it as the "fuck you meter"

Having too much fun and the meter fills, game says fuck you, sends you an unwinnable matchup

[ivory otter]

That much I know myself. What I meant was, what exactly? Another skin for Borhneim, a knife and a random hunter like before, or will they finally give us something new?

[dusky spoke]

Could use more bornheim extended skins ngl

[stone basin]

How long did it take for 1 to even come out?

[strong moon]

i was messin' about, we don't know yet

[ivory otter]

OK. I'm just disappointed that they keep giving out the same skins from these drops over and over again, and I don't get anything interesting when I have them.

[crystal bay]

New skins would be nice

but they are free so I can't complain too much

[deep fog]

Bornheims been a bad place for a long time

Im not entirely shocked it hasnt got a lot of love

They had to nerf it long ago because sparks x bornheim spam was super strong

And then since then its been overshadowed by like the new army anyway

[karmic citrus]

I like the officer :)

[deep fog]

The fact its ammo capacity is so bad as well means its really hard to even take it as like a 2 slot secondary when running a shotgun or something

[astral moss]

I mean, he is in a fine state now.

[fathom shale]

Bornheim is far from bad

[deep fog]

Its not bad

I just wouldn't say its good either

And the bornheim match particularly i think really struggles to see use against other two slot options

[ocean briar]

how does this twitch drops event work? first time for me

[crystal bay]

Spam is pretty good

[crystal bay]

You connect your twitch account to Hunt and then you watch Hunt streamers who have drops enabled

[scenic plinth]

if bornheim was that bad, crytek would buff it out of nowhere like spectre

[astral moss]

The dolch just out stat the bornheim in everything so everyone play dolch.

[ivory otter]

yeah but allay cat was 3 times in twitch drops

[karmic citrus]

Just run fanning chain pistol

[full raven]

woah, Born Match is amazing

[karmic citrus]

I love the chain pistol ❤️

[ocean briar]

ok main follow up questions

how connect account
how find out what streamers have drops enabled
do I need to do anything to get these drops or will they automatically come onto my game
what are the drops...

[full raven]

First time Im hearing anyone say the Bornheim Match is not amazing

[deep fog]

I mean, it's a head clicker, fine, but the cent shorty and even vandal with hp do that too

And yes it has a fast follow up hut with what is it, 80 dmg? Thats only up to like 25 metres

[full raven]

It can two tap

super quick

[crystal bay]

!drops

[graceful hedge]

Information about twitch drop campaigns can be found here: https://www.huntshowdown.com/twitchdrops

[ocean briar]

thank you!

[crystal bay]

You can go there to connect your twitch, the streamers will be streaming Hunt and state in title typically that drops are enabled

they want to get viewers from it so they will let you know

And you will have to claim the drops from twitch after you've watched whatever amount of time is required to unlock them

[full raven]

It can kill in two bullets and burns on one at 25m

its an amazing pistol

[astral moss]

https://tenor.com/view/magic-hugs-shooting-everyone-blind-fire-everything-gif-9990849

[crystal bay]

Last time it was "watch 4 hours within 1 week to unlock everything for that week" I believe

maybe a bit more than 4 hours but it wasn't too hard

[random nimbus]

[deep fog]

Ok but one a 1 slot pistol officer and army can do that and get bleed ammo

[karmic citrus]

Or dual conversions if you hate having to reload mid fight

[full raven]

No where near as fast as the bornheim match

[karmic citrus]

I need conversion chain pistol carbine

[astral moss]

I just discover the scottfield dual and i think its better than conversion.

[karmic citrus]

Dual Schofield's are really good too

I like running them with fmj

[random nimbus]

Scotts are almost as accurate but have ugly recoil and firing speeds compared to the conversions

[ivory otter]

so you need this?

[karmic citrus]

Usually I'll run sparks pistol or uppercut recently, because I've been running a lot of shotguns and long ammo

[random nimbus]

Swifts are nice for continuous spam tho

[astral moss]

Yes but scottfield have more style so...

[karmic citrus]

Yesterday we were talking about what they should add and I brought up Gatling guns.

Yes.

Gimme

Mounted Gatling guns would be very silly

[full raven]

You are comparing a rapid-fire pistol to one that has to cycle. There is no comparison. You even compared it to the vandal. I don't know what to say at this point, to me the strength is self-evident.

[deep fog]

My point is its only 2 tap at limited ranges

[random nimbus]

Comparing officer and harmy to what?

[deep fog]

Bornheim

[full raven]

Bornheim Match

[karmic citrus]

"gun do half the damage!!!" Yes, but you can send 4 rounds down range, while other options are still trying to cycle to the second round.

[deep fog]

And match to vandal/cent shorty

[random nimbus]

Ehh, bornheim match is fun but definitely a more paper gun vs one that's practical

[full raven]

Hes saying the bornheim Match is not great, which is insane to me

[deep fog]

I don't think it is, sorry

[random nimbus]

It CAN two tap torso faster than anything, but it's only upper torso at short range.

[deep fog]

A 25 metre two tap is really limiting

[random nimbus]

It's great on paper but not very consistent in practice

[astral moss]

bornheim dual.

[karmic citrus]

Run ranger primary, bornheim match (I assume it's compact ammo), use it CQC

[deep fog]

I guess yesh used like this it makes more sense

[karmic citrus]

It's kinda crazy, the close quarters gun meant for close quarters

[random nimbus]

It's good, but I wouldn't call it great

[deep fog]

Im comparing 2 slot weapons when your 3 slot is a shotgun i guess

[full raven]

I use the match close a lot but if your main arguement is that it can only two tap at 25m, its a rapid fire pistol with more than two bullets...

[random nimbus]

It's a lot of potential but not the most consistent in achieving it

[full raven]

that doesn't miss

[karmic citrus]

Hey that's not on the gun though

[deep fog]

I guess my question is

[full raven]

Im only 5 star but I wipe teams with it as a main

[deep fog]

What build would you be using it in

[random nimbus]

Well, you're one of the few that still uses it. The match has been around for ages and got buffed years ago to 80 damage and never took off.

[full raven]

I like to run Berthier and Born Match

[random nimbus]

An officer carbine is usually a more consistent spam option.

[deep fog]

Okay so you're using it as your cqc weapon

That makes sense then

Im comparing it as a secondary to another cqc weapon like shotgun or crossbow

[random nimbus]

I used it for a while because Mockingbird is an amazing skin

[full raven]

I care about the fast TTK which its in it own league

[random nimbus]

Fast TTK vs how consistent it is.

[full raven]

shot gun you miss a shot its over, Match you can spray a whole clip and if two hit, you win

[random nimbus]

Sadly the match isn't the most consistent

[crystal bay]

I'm glad match isn't used more often tbh

[karmic citrus]

I like running specter with sparks pistol :)

[full raven]

Its more consistent than shotgun with how many bullets you can put out

[random nimbus]

Okay, that's just not true.

[deep fog]

Shotguns are basically 100% Consistent if you can aim and are in range

Unless you run penny shot, lol

[gritty willow]

Jail

[deep fog]

But thats the issue, ranging shotguns is very tricky

[karmic citrus]

[random nimbus]

If we're talking ideal upper torso aim in respective weapon ranges, shotgun always wins.

[random nimbus]

Been doing slate penny lately and it's surprisingly consistent

[full raven]

Shotgun you ahve to hit the first shot and kill on first shot, Match you can litterally spray in their direction.

[random nimbus]

If you're just spraying then you're just using a bad pistol at that point

[karmic citrus]

Y'all don't know the real sleeper weapon. 4 big dynamite bundles.

[random nimbus]

Because the bornheim 3 taps everywhere that isn't upper torso

[gritty willow]

Shotguns r fun until the mf turns to the side n u do 30 lmb damage

[deep fog]

Dueling stance pistol trait when

[random nimbus]

Any other pistol will spray better, especially if they can tolerate an arm hit to kill

[deep fog]

Idk i guess as a secondary to a long gun bornheim makes sense

[random nimbus]

And shotguns shoot quick.

[full raven]

I feel like you won't be convinced, it's way more consistent at getting kills in the compound for me.

[deep fog]

I would personally take a shotgun hand cannon in that situation

[full raven]

You like what you like I guess

[random nimbus]

Like, the crown is .6 second cycle time, rival is like .3

These shotguns put out bullets quick

[deep fog]

But i would normally take a full shotgun with a 2 slot rifle instead, for which I personally believe the bornheim is the worst choice

So honestly i think is one of those where there isnt a "right" answer

[full raven]

Match is going to have a more consistant longer range kill than any 2 slot shotty. Auto-4 is really good though.

[random nimbus]

Idk if you realize how far some shotguns can two tap at

[full raven]

point blank sure, shotty might destroy but you need to fill more range if your main is essentially a sniper

[random nimbus]

And again, match HAS to hit upper torso.

People usually take a drilling in that situation

Has two rapid fire shots AND a shotgun

[full raven]

The only argument I could accept is that the bow would outperform the match for a mid/close two slot

[random nimbus]

I think the fact that the Match is essentially a ghost gun is proof enough against it.

[full raven]

Bow is just that good

[random nimbus]

It's good, but it's just good.

[karmic citrus]

Drilling is cool, but the shotgun feels like I'm either hitting a dude with the sun, or sending a small wave of styrofoam at him

[deep fog]

Real sleeper combi gun is the lemat carbine with fmj

[random nimbus]

It feels way better than it used to. I refused to run it without slugs pre buckshot buff

[deep fog]

That is honestly busted

[karmic citrus]

I've gotten nasty one taps with drilling, and other times I'll be practically stuffing my barrel into a dudes chest and my buddy has to follow up with 2 sparks shots to put him down

[random nimbus]

All shotgun combo type guns feel so much better after the buckshot buff

[full raven]

The whole argument is that Drone said it wasn't good

[deep fog]

I said it wasn't good compared to other options as a 2 slot gun

[karmic citrus]

My buddy used to swear by the lemat carbine

[full raven]

Its not used as much because you ahve to build around it, Not because its bad. Thats faulty logic.

[deep fog]

But i maybe should of clarified thsts how I would use it as a ranged gun with a cqc primary

[random nimbus]

Well, I don't agree it's not good, but I don't think it's great either. It's a lot of potential that isn't the most consistent pick, and consistency is usually one of the biggest factors in pick rates.

[full raven]

Its way more simple to throw in a one slot pistol and build more around a main gun

[deep fog]

If you are using it as a cqc gun then in that case it makes sense

[full raven]

Using pick rate as a metric for viability is absurd

[random nimbus]

Tbf, if you have to build around it specifically, then that suggests it's a lot of demand.

[random nimbus]

Not really. Mosin is picked highly because it's a consistent gun

[deep fog]

I still think in the one slot pistol size version its getting crowded out by the army and the officer though

[random nimbus]

Pennyshot isn't picked because it's not consistent

Pennyshot CAN be absolutely disgusting. But it can also throw the game

[karmic citrus]

There's a reason you see the same like, 3 guns more than anything else

[full raven]

Ya, I don't think there is any need to further discuss this. You seem pretty set. If you don't like it thats cool but ya, using pick rate just kind of loses my interest.

[random nimbus]

I've given several reasons WHY it's not picked.

[deep fog]

Im agreeing with you dude, as a cqc secondary its probably fine

Its not my personal choice but it makes sense

[full raven]

I think we agree.

Im going back in game though. Have a good one

[random nimbus]

Use it if you like it, more power to you. Just don't worship it and act like it's some sleeper pick nobody knows how to use.

[deep fog]

Good hoonting

[random nimbus]

Like, dolch p or Match. Cost aside, it's a easy choice.

[scenic plinth]

pennyshot is casino gameplay, sometimes you lose it all sometimes you somehow get a double kill with 1 shot

[deep fog]

Pennyshot shouldn't use ammo

It should cost 1 hunt dollar every time you firs it

[karmic citrus]

Honestly, I can't think of an objectively bad gun.

[random nimbus]

My biggest gripe with penny is no pen.

[deep fog]

Springfield shorty bayonet

[karmic citrus]

Should cost like 6, not just one coin in there

[random nimbus]

Ehhh when compared to each other I think you can.

Like everything can kill but then we're into 'just headshot' territory

[scenic plinth]

it still can take dumdum and does over 125, objectively NOT BAD

[deep fog]

Touche, but the sights are fucking awful

[karmic citrus]

Yeah, like he said. Big damage, especially with HP

[random nimbus]

Springfield compact USED to be the absolute worst

That sway was unreasonable

[karmic citrus]

Every gun feels like it can be viable in some way

[deep fog]

Okay counterpoint

[dusky spoke]

You kiddin me?

[random nimbus]

Problem is if there's better options

[deep fog]

The winfield talon

[random nimbus]

I love Winnie talon

[karmic citrus]

Yeah, always better guns

[deep fog]

Solely because the bayonet winfield is good now

And obsoletes it

[dusky spoke]

Bornheim is one if not the highest skill ceiling gun in the game

[karmic citrus]

I've never even heard of the Winfield.

I need to experiment with builds more man

Damn

[deep fog]

Sorry, the ranger

[random nimbus]

Oh god, post 1896 players

[karmic citrus]

OH, I LOVE THE RANGER

[random nimbus]

Ffs just rename them back to Winfields

[karmic citrus]

I'm a newgen, don't mind me

[deep fog]

But point remains: talon js good but the bayonet does the same thing but vetter

[random nimbus]

Like, I die a little inside when I hear Auto-5. NO! IT'S CALLED THE CROWN!

[modern pebble]

back im me day we had the winfield the winfield the winfield and the winfield

[deep fog]

In that regard i'd humbly suggest the talon as an objectively bad gun

[random nimbus]

Talon is great for rending damage

Like for wire

[modern pebble]

talon is bad because swift best variant

[random nimbus]

The Winnie bayonet is also LONG. I've seen people poking it through walls because they run gunslinger

[deep fog]

But the bayonet poke is one of the longest, if not the longest, in the game, so against players is probably better

[karmic citrus]

The actual gun is called the browning auto 5, it actually being called that in game makes me happy

[random nimbus]

Irl yes, but in game it was the Crown and King Auto-5

[karmic citrus]

THAT SOUNDS SO MUCH COOLER!!!!

[deep fog]

Its called the clown and cringe ackshully

[random nimbus]

Then they went on a renaming crusade for some reason

[stone basin]

I miss when guns in this game had brands

[random nimbus]

Exactly!

[modern pebble]

i still think the renaming was a good thing

telling a new player to use a winfield was

complicated

[random nimbus]

To the shadow realm

[deep fog]

You had big winny

And little winny

[random nimbus]

It wasn't complicated. People just didn't read.

[deep fog]

What was the issue

[stone basin]

Shotgun winny

[karmic citrus]

WHY IS THE SCHOFIELD CALLED THE SCOTTFIELD

[deep fog]

Honestly I think thet should of made em like

[dusky spoke]

Funny you say that I dont recall anyone complaining about it

[deep fog]

Borderlands style cards

[random nimbus]

Copyright reasons

[deep fog]

Brand, name, etc

[modern pebble]

the marlin is called a mako

[stone basin]

So I can call the scottfield P the Scotty P

[random nimbus]

About what? The name change? People hated it what are you talking about?

[deep fog]

Then you could of had Winfield as a brand and ranger as the weapon line

[karmic citrus]

Fair

[modern pebble]

yes because its such a bad thing that the weapons are easier to differentiate for new players

[random nimbus]

The old WinnieC has a giant C next to the name

[dusky spoke]

Complaining about being confused I mean.

I'm agreeing with you lol

[random nimbus]

Oh my bad lol

[stone basin]

I see you are on xbox I hope next time I play I either murder you or you murder me it will be fun

[deep fog]

I mean whats the winfields call now

[modern pebble]

i think its ranger infantry and frontier

[deep fog]

The... Ranger and the... Ranger 73...?

[karmic citrus]

We probably have already, there's like 8 people that play Xbox hunt

[random nimbus]

Except they aren't because it's the same damn gun but with wildly different names vs similar guns with similar names but slight distinctions.

[modern pebble]

and obv the centennial

[karmic citrus]

OMG I USE THIS GUN!!!!

[random nimbus]

They made it MORE confusing

[deep fog]

Helldivers x hunt crossover when

[stone basin]

Most likely

[random nimbus]

Winfield. WinfieldC. Short and simple.

[deep fog]

I wanna shoot some terminids with a romero and fan clankers to death with a conversion

[dusky spoke]

Coulda just called the small capacity winfield the binfield and been done with it smh

[deep fog]

Losefield

[random nimbus]

The new one could be WinfieldL.

[south shore]

Im a Verdict fan myself but I respect the Talon

[random nimbus]

The krag losing Springfield was at least understandable

[deep fog]

Real men use the dagger and just go for headshots

[karmic citrus]

Deadeye is such a sleeper gun ngl, the lever action cooks on the bot front

[deep fog]

But why are you putting your ac8 away on the bot front...?

Bam bam bam bam bam PING

and i had the native american skin on and used a soundboard to play native music

[deep fog]

Haha

[heavy finch]

ill dm you the link to the compilation from that if you are bored 🙂

[haughty gale]

Is bow and arrow 1 shot?

[heavy finch]

yea most of the time.

[haughty gale]

Or like is it viable for me to just run perma bow and arrow

[deep fog]

One of my most memorable moments in hunt was years ago, and a polish guy here joined us in a lfg game and ran bomblance only and ran at people like a psychopath screaming polish curses over allchat

[opal dawn]

Torso = Within like 30'ish meters, 35 with hundred hands. And with that trait you can OHK anywhere on the body within 7 meters

[heavy finch]

hehe

[haughty gale]

So what secondary weapon?

[deep fog]

Was actually astonishing how many people panicked and shit their pants when someone sprints at them screaming a language they don't know and swinging the bomb lance around

[heavy finch]

next time play tripaloski with a soundboard

[opal dawn]

Whatever you want I guess. Cent shorty or obrez for long range engagements

[heavy finch]

or run quartermaster and have a main rifle with bow as your short game.

[haughty gale]

What about arrow types?

Concertina or poison?

[heavy finch]

honestly i think the standard arrows are just fine

no one can ignore that bleed.

[haughty gale]

lets go

[heavy finch]

ayo. no bow skin? commit bro wth...

[opal dawn]

Poison is better against AI, but it's not as accurate in hipfire as regular arrows

[haughty gale]

Hey aint even used a bow yet xd

[opal dawn]

Pro tip, you don't actually need to aim down the sights with the bow until you're trying to shoot at like 20 meters

Just get them center on in the crosshair and it's good

[heavy finch]

i mained bow only games for like 100 hours. because im a sucker for meme setups. regular arrows are king. accuracy and arrow count is important.

[haughty gale]

Shame I need DLC for bow skin

[heavy finch]

i bought the dlc for the hunter skin. bow was a bonus

[opal dawn]

Yeah, I just go normal too when I go bow

[haughty gale]

set up

cheap

[heavy finch]

hmmm. why not run quarter and have a bigger more versatile rifle like a cent or something

[haughty gale]

Nah commiting to only bow

How do I acc see what skins I have?

[heavy finch]

no you're not. bring 2 bows then

[gritty willow]

Bow makes me sad when i trade

[obtuse wind]

As a new player of 3 weeks now, my brother and I both come to the conclusion this game might not be good for new players or in general. The gun play and the sound is next level, maps good also.

The issue with the game is we both have already put in 40-50 hours of play time and we still have next to nothing unlocked or have any way to even run cool set ups and test gear.

It seems there's no way to get fast hunt dollars and outside of that the game seems like a huge money grab. It sucks because this is such a cool game but it's obviously not made for casual players or new people.

Sincerely fuck whoever made this great game

[haughty gale]

bro just play the damn game

[opal dawn]

Money grab? In what way? Of all the things I would've dogged on Hunt that's not really one of them

[icy elbow]

You’ve put in 50 hours and you haven’t unlocked any new gear? What?

[opal dawn]

You just need base game and nothing else

[heavy finch]

wat? getting money right now is hella easy. go to the spiders nest.

[halcyon sedge]

if u have next to nothing unlocked after 40-50 hrs u have to be just chilling in main menu

[heavy finch]

this guy is gay btw.

[halcyon sedge]

shut it lenny

[obtuse wind]

I'm sick of using free new players with shit set ups, we can't even get over 10k hunt dollars and cool gun set ups with bullets/good gear costs well over 1k a load out which 9/10 games we die and lose. Then we make almost no hunt dollars every game so how are we ever supposed to run cool set ups and test all the add ons to the guns?

[vivid cape]

heyy yall, new to game, please tell me how to collect those rewards I keep seeing. After a mtch, I see "you got a reward" wheere to pick it from ?

[opal dawn]

You just get them

No need to collect anything

[vivid cape]

oh

[obtuse wind]

Explain to me how to make enough hunt dollars to run even a 500 dollar load out every match? Doesnt seem possible

[vivid cape]

so it says i got a dunkirke.... or i short revolver, so I got it ? no need to buy it ? oke then

[halcyon sedge]

hey yall new to the game i keep running to the lightning bolts on the map and theres always players there that kill me is this a bug ?

[obtuse wind]

Ok explain to me how to make enough hunt dollars to run even a 500 dollar load out without running out of hunt dollars (500 load outs have next to fucking nothing)

[opal dawn]

Step 1: Vulture trait. Gives you extra money when looting hunters.
Step 2: It's event season, there can be cash registers in big towers, at supply points, spider lair. They net 250-1000.
Step 3: You're new, I got my ass handed to me as well in the beginning, but as you get used to it, you'll win

[obtuse wind]

Actually we have tried to do bounties and extract without losing characters

[opal dawn]

I still have night where I get dogged on 10 out of 12 matches

[vivid cape]

which is the best rifle for in general go to bounty clash game ?

[heavy finch]

uhm. if you were playing on US east i could guide you. but during this event ive made 80.000 dollars and i run only swords memeing around.

[icy elbow]

Fwiw the guns often given to you on free hunters are fine. They often have marathons and 1865 carbines both of which are viable

[vivid cape]

i saw a meme about romero earier

[icy elbow]

you can use those hunters and just give them some extra cheap gear or select those and pull the guns off to use

[opal dawn]

Bounties are not the best source of income (Which is a stupid decision), the registers are the best

[obtuse wind]

See you and all the fucking guys clowning a new player who genuinely enjoys the game. How are my brother and I supposed to do that? We watched guides on how to do everything yet we can't even get bounties before others clear map and if we do go for them we usually die in process losing character

[icy elbow]

if you want to shift w into the lair shotguns are of course good in clash

[heavy finch]

send me a dm ill help you setup some really cheap builds

or call me

[haughty gale]

teach me the ways of melee only

[halcyon sedge]

honestly this guy is the best if you need help with this game he's a knobhead but the advice is solid 10/10

[haughty gale]

take me into your home and show me your ways

[heavy finch]

that can also be done. the art of the jiggle dodge

[vivid cape]

lair shotguns, noted

[obtuse wind]

So we're supposed to run around hiding just trying to find cash registers and extracting? Which would take 10+ matches to even afford 1-2 full cool load outs. Game makes zero sense

[haughty gale]

where do I sign up

[heavy finch]

dm me

[heavy finch]

nah man. just dm me ill help you out

[opal dawn]

Just let people deal with each other and sop up the rest. Don't need to be the first to go in. Get high velocity guns and try to learn headshots

[obtuse wind]

Crazy I heard this game has a good community when I have a valid grip with game as a new player, there's nothing to help you get set up and run cool load outs to test items. We can't get any bounty's can barely even extract with anything. Come here and community just clowns new players and you guys wonder why this games dying

[icy elbow]

people are offering you advice dawg

[opal dawn]

Yeah lmao

[obtuse wind]

Only Pvt Lenny

[haughty gale]

hes a begging nagging nancy

[icy elbow]

are you blind?

[fathom shale]

Keep it respectful guys

[icy elbow]

Grug has been responding to you offering you legitimate advice this entire time

[analog kettle]

Question!
Is there a bug with Death Cheat?!
I lost mine after I only got downed but we survived.

[obtuse wind]

Okay so the advice you guys gave me was to run around avoid players find cash registers which you didn't even tell me how to find them and then I'm supposed to just extract without having any fun killing anything. Not going for any bounties not even knowing how to play the game. I'm just supposed to avoid players for 10 matches in a row extracting with a little bit of cash. So then I can go buy a sick loadout die with it instantly and then spend the next 10 matches loading cash registers avoiding players? What kind of fucking stupid game is that?

[whole furnace]

Shooting range, while not perfect have a lot of weapon and gear to check out + all the new cards :)

[opal dawn]

I told you where to find them, second, you don't have to avoid PvP, just make the best out of a winning situation

[halcyon sedge]

chat is this rage bait

[opal dawn]

If you're new, let some teams take each other out then take advantage of that

[fathom shale]

Yes it's bugged currently

[opal dawn]

That's just how Hunt is

If you wanna practice PvP, get free Hunters and do some bounty clash, you lose nothing

[obtuse wind]

No, it's not ragebait. My brother and I generally bought this game a few weeks ago. Have been casually playing five to six matches a few nights a week and from our experience we've gone down and hunt dollars. We can't even afford any cool loadouts. We just run free characters that normally die or we survive one to two matches and then they die. So we can't even unlock all the cool characters or use any of the cool guns or equipment. And we have games of zero money every time we spend on a cool loadout that's barely even a thousand hunt dollars. We dying silly and now we're both down to less than 4K hundred dollars. So we came and use anything. Explain to me how the f*** we're supposed to do anything in this game as new players

[true briar]

I hate to say it, but git gud

[obtuse wind]

Sorry I'm at work. Voice to chat sucks

[fathom shale]

That's the game though, risk vs reward, the better your loadout and the more you spend on it the more you risk if you end up dying

[halcyon sedge]

you gotta just find balanced loadouts and learn the game, after that money will come naturally

[fathom shale]

There's options to help you out even if you struggle with hunt dollars, there's free hunters, soul survivor mode, playstyles that can get you money without having to wipe the entire lobby

[obtuse wind]

Well I agree. How are we supposed to get good when the whole community is running around with sick characters? Fully loaded out gear, special bullets and guns and we can't even get a bounty to extract with.... I've played a ton of video games in my life and it just seems like this video game. There's zero way for new players to get in the community and enjoy the game

[icy elbow]

You don’t need thousands of dollars to run a viable loadout and you don’t need to rat around for 10 matches. Try to focus on extracting for a couple of matches while running a cheap loadouts. Free hunters have viable main slot rifles which you can use. Steal their gear and put it in your inventory if you don’t want to spend money on things like melee tools and med kits. Soul survivor also gives you free money. Bounty clash you can bring free hunters in and if you lose it doesn’t matter and if you win you can loot every body for the money. Look in hunting towers for registers. There are a lot of options for making money in this game, even without having to win every time. It’s not helpful to come into a chat and be super aggressive to people who actually do know the game and are trying to offer you legitimate advice

[opal dawn]

I have a total of 1k hours in this game, my average loadout costs like... 550-700 bucks

[fathom shale]

You can also train your aim to be more equipped to deal with players when you do end up facing them, there's shooting range, soul survivor is good as well to encourage you to try different weapons with no risk of losing your own money/gear

[true briar]

We all used to be new players at one point and we got the hang of it

you lose some and win some

eventually you'll learn and start wining more than losing

[full raven]

Springfield Shorty DUM DUM with a Romero 77 Shorty. 129 dollars for both guns and you can conquer the world.

[fathom shale]

Also if anything, this game is on average way more forgiving economy wise than something like Tarkov or other extraction shooters

[opal dawn]

Hunt was brutal when I started fully, got trashed. Then, started winning and there's not game quite like Hunt once you get rolling

[true briar]

cheep loadout ain't that bad, Romero is good gun if you know how to use it

[whole mist]

Use free hunters and buy extra tools or shots. And play Bounty Hunt not Bounty Clash for easy money. Farm ai for pledge marks and loot the Spider Nest……if you can’t win with free hunter weapons you probably won’t win with mosin + dolch anyways

[obtuse wind]

Yes I understand that. But my brother and I are sick of using free characters and we've been playing the game for a couple weeks pretty consistently. It just seems like we shouldn't be going down hunt dollars and we should be able to at least try out some of the other cool stuff/guns/gear/bullet types/ drone bug things etc.... not to mention actually having cool characters to play

[whole mist]

Pledge marks and looting big cash registers is really easy during events

[full raven]

You can wipe teams with a kit that includes a paid hunter, 215 dollars for the guns,ammo,tools, and hunter. Im 5 Star and iv wipied lobbies with it.

[spark plaza]

amogus

[opal dawn]

You can also strip free hunters of gear, boot them and get a 100 dollar Hunter

[obtuse wind]

Can you post a screenshot of kit?

[true briar]

also

[icy elbow]

What are you bringing where you are recruiting free hunters but are still hemorrhaging tons of money ?

[true briar]

take vulture perk and loot hunters

[obtuse wind]

We get free hunters usually don't survive and so we seem to make no money. Do a few matches get bored of free hunters. We try some cool loadouts 500-700 and then we die with those a few times now we're floating around less thank 3-5k hunt dollars and pretty much can never get ahead it seems.

[opal dawn]

Vetterli + lemat pistol is a great combo. Vett is fantastic now and lemat got a shotgun

[whole mist]

Crosshair X enjoyer

[full raven]

You run a sub 300 hunter+kit the game even gives you money for playing. I get half my money back not even getting out. If you kill boss and die you still net profit

[spark plaza]

He deleted it 💔

[full raven]

Legit if you run solo with Necro,Witness,Vulture

you can make so much bank

[outer cloak]

Still find it insanely dirty how crytek refused to pay crytek USA employees paychecks. Waiting til there boss left and most of the company quit here in the states. Closed it. Took the ip they were working on. And made something completely different after USA literally put there heart and soul into it

Then they basically had to form a new studio from the remnants of who was left. Remake yet another engine like they had before. Remade the game but had to change the art direction entirely bc the IP they created was snagged

ironicly tho they did name there game

"Remnant from the ashes"

[outer cloak]

Duos or trios

[outer cloak]

My bad igy, I didn't know that was a thing

[outer cloak]

My bad I just saw this. Let me finish my deep dive in drg and I'll hyu

[astral moss]

Wich weapon ?

[outer cloak]

Spear, my favorite melee weapon

[astral moss]

Its not a melee anymore, its just a one shot on demand.

[outer cloak]

Wait you can't poke with it?

[silent terrace]

bet

[astral moss]

You can but it didn't one shot anymore.

Like you need 2 heavy attack to kill a full life hunter.

[light sky]

Just aim for the head

[true pawn]

Just hit heads cmoon

[south shore]

Ive seen spooky get headshots

This is libel

Dirty libel

[modern pebble]

why should i stop using harpoons when they have good range

[outer cloak]

I agree with the statement

[modern pebble]

steel balls enjoyers could never

[outer cloak]

Why would I not use flechette from medium range, it fucking hits and bleeds

[modern pebble]

real

although flechette does what harpoon can but WORSE

no one shot

[outer cloak]

I'm an AVID shotbolt user for that reason

Pellets won't reach you?

[modern pebble]

i love shitbolt

[outer cloak]

Fine I will deliver the whole fucking shell to your location

[modern pebble]

this is why this ammo type is so funny man

also we were in lower ranking lobby cuz a friend is new and im trash

[outer cloak]

I personally sometimes bring explosive JUST so I can lob random bolts across map

Scare the hoes away type shit

[modern pebble]

also unrelated

trios is so fucking easy

theres no way people think solo is easier

[outer cloak]

Solo is easier

I literally sit and wait

Let everyone fight

Maybe hop in for like 10 seconds and snag a kill or two

Wait some more

Wait til it's like a 1 v 3 or 1v2

[modern pebble]

thats not solo being easier thats ratting being easier

[outer cloak]

Snag kill and then a bounty

Leave

What's the difference...

[modern pebble]

???

i solo and i aint a fucking rat

[outer cloak]

Congrats?

I'm gonna sit in a bush with a Xbow and get 7 kills two bounties and no deaths

And probably watch YouTube shorts while I do it

[astral moss]

Hunt, maybe the only game where you can watch a video while playing it.

[outer cloak]

Nah 10000% tarkov and siege

It literally has a phone phase (drone phase)

[astral moss]

Yeah but its one minute at the start.

I bet you don't camp for 1min in hunt, don't lie to me.

[outer cloak]

Oh hell no

I be IN DA BUSH

[copper zodiac]

glad im 6* so all i play against is YS and hm with their mosin dolch

[outer cloak]

I'm 6 star too

;-;

[astral moss]

"Glad i am 6*" probably the firts time i see this.

[deep fog]

I play solo with serpent, dont go in the compound, steal the banish and bounty through a wall and then leave while the boss team fights another trio

[outer cloak]

Don't forget magpie for this too

[copper zodiac]

ive been 6* for 2-3 years

[deep fog]

If its a good game i don't even kill anyone
