did you check

[crisp eagle]

reset ur router

[alpine canopy]

we were a trio

all my friends had the same issue

wtf

[ancient cave]

dead people can't hear silly

[crisp eagle]

bro reacting to my messages cause I laugh reacted to the femboy 😭

it's true though when you think about it

[ionic walrus]

no its just a bad take

ive been able to hear while dead since as long as i can remember

now the setting is gone

and i cant hear voip while down

[crisp eagle]

you mean when you're spectating your teammates and you can hear what they hear

[ionic walrus]

no

im down on the ground

cant hear voip

[crisp eagle]

hmm

no more qwoption

[crisp eagle]

[manic crystal]

As far as a tac shooter I think ide rather play fragpunk the objectives and wait time is killing me lol

[ionic walrus]

ive just found out something goofy

if you play solo the players you go against have lower mmr

getting killed by them proportionally brings down your mmr

mmr drops faster

even if your getting multiple kills

that stinks

lose 200 mmr for dying gain 50 for killing

[ionic walrus]

3 kills 1 death -50 mmr

[whole furnace]

Well, just to correct you a little, that is how it used to be.
But now we have safeguards that prevents rapid MMR decay for solos :)

[jagged parcel]

Um
Ah..

…bomb lance pretty neat :)

[jagged parcel]

LANCE CLIP LANCE CLIP LANCE CLIP

[jagged parcel]

I like this clip- HOWEVER
I prefer to run at the people and stab them

[whole furnace]

My only two bomblance clips

[jagged parcel]

I played some clash with friends earlier- like- almost all of my kills were just running at people with katana and not giving them chance to pull out a close range option lmao

Or turn around

Or…
You get the idea

[outer iron]

My only bomb lance clip is the explosive going into someone's skull before phasing through to the other side, dealing no damage.

[jagged parcel]

XD
I like this clip

[ionic walrus]

then why did my solo queue mmr drop from 5 star solo to 4 star solo (6 stars overall just degrees of it)

in just a few games

[jagged parcel]

And that is why I use steel ball!

[ionic walrus]

harpoon is just bomblance but if it instakilled and went further

[outer iron]

I've had success with launcher with waxed frags though. I pair that with nagant precision fanning.

[jagged parcel]

Probably. However, there is something you failed to consider…
||my shit aim||

[whole furnace]

Well considering that MMR is update from match to match and is a couple of games behind, it is not likely it was due to those solo matches and just you been dying a lot in general.

[manic crystal]

Nice!!! How many you lose think against the 50 you have saved??

[whole furnace]

Quite proud of it, tho I think my: "Bounce of doorframe around the corner to kill a guy with impact damage of waxed frag" is my peak bomb launcher moment.

[manic crystal]

I have to keep going back to free loadouts

[whole furnace]

(So happy my friend was streaming and able to spectate me as my recording software didn't work) :')

[ionic walrus]

that was peak ngl

[whole furnace]

Didn't even consider that you could kill off a bounce like that lol

But then again, I've also pulled off shit like this

Hunt does allow for a lot shit

[manic crystal]

Which pistol is that??

[whole furnace]

Officer

Officer Brawler in this case

[ionic walrus]

did you

shoot

a explo bolt

[whole furnace]

Yes

[ionic walrus]

as soon as it launched

[whole furnace]

Damn right

I'm sure that player thought it was really cool and not felt like he was robbed what should be a free win lmao

[manic crystal]

It's just the one game mode on hunt right?I saw a video of someone talking about another node

[left orbit]

ye it's what makes it so special

[crisp eagle]

bounty hunt and bounty clash and solo

[whole furnace]

Hunt game modes:

• Bounty Hunt, OG and main mode.
• Soul Survivor, solo only battle royal-styled mode.
• Bounty Clash, 12 player one compound only mode.
• Tutorial, self-explanatory.

Too late, we are now enemies, meet me in the Bayou! >:V

[crisp eagle]

: P

[whole furnace]

Have you claimed them?

Well, you need to claim them

If they are claimed, sometimes you need to play a couple of rounds for them to pop up :)

[short halo]

Unless you claimed them on twitch while you werent playing. In that case they were added to your game when you logged in and you may have missed the popup or were hitting space or esc during the loading screen

[urban steppe]

my chud randoms didn't think I could clutch the 1 v 1 v 2 and left 😔

I server wiped and left with a single token

[whole furnace]

It shouldn't be shown like that tho?

This means that it ain't connected to your account

[crisp eagle]

Just restart game :d

[urban steppe]

they pushed a dude who was indoors at alice with a fanning chain pistol
both died to the same mf

[whole furnace]

This is how my drops looks after they are claimed

[crisp eagle]

Make sure your accounts r connected properly : D

[wicked fox]

Sometimes you need to connect your account twice. Sometimes it doesn’t connect on the first attempt.

[bright plover]

I know this will sound absurd, but in the next two days, I'll only have like 2 hours of PC time (right now, 11:23, until 13:30). Can I cheat the drop system by "watching" 4 streams at once so it's done in 1 hour or no? I'm talking about the twitch drops of course.

[crisp eagle]

Lmaoooo

No

[whole furnace]

nope lol

[crisp eagle]

Its tied to one twitch account right

[simple basin]

Bruh there should be an option to not get queued up with the same griefer, I have to keep going on a timer to avoid this guy

[crisp eagle]

So

[whole furnace]

How are they griefing?

[bright plover]

Unlucky

[crisp eagle]

True, I'll never forget this one schizo rambler pretending to be a prophet

Have you tried to connect those two now?

Erhm

I would suggest deleting that message before mods sees it

[wicked fox]

Ummm, in the world we currently live in don’t even joke like that.

[whole furnace]

Do you use VPNs and whatnot?

Well, then don't cry when you get banned lol

That might be the issue

[crisp eagle]

Me when the 21+ Furry wolf girl gamer gf who likes pokemon and yugioh enters server...

I mean

We can only do what we can do bruv

Ur lucky we tried

[whole furnace]

Well, the systems is created by the base assumption that people are using VPNs.

I know that this sounds rude, but that is an is an "you issue", not really steam's, crytek's nor twitch's problem.

[crisp eagle]

Vpn doesn't cause issue for me at all

Nor ours LOL

Hahahha

You're welcome for nothing

How r these people real

This is discord

This isn't IT

We aren't getting paid

Were Randoms on the internet

No one cares about your problem here

[whole furnace]

VPN can cause issues with certain verifications processes, don't know any workaround for it.
But just that the systems ain't made with VPN in mind.

[crisp eagle]

You're demanding us to help like were obligated as IT would be

Not the way you worded it

[simple basin]

Afking at the start of the match so that the 2 of us he's paired with will complete his missions without him having to play

[whole furnace]

The best suggestion is to temporarily disable VPN when you claim the rewards :)

[crisp eagle]

You're asking us to help and crying that you aren't being helped and saying thanks for nothing. You're disrespecting everyone's efforts and time and frankly I think you should be banned

[simple basin]

Never seen such tool behavior in this game til today

[crisp eagle]

I'm not bullying you

Yeah fr

[whole furnace]

Hmm yeah that sucks, sadly not a reportable offense, that said, I would suggest leaving a feedback in the #feedback channel so Crytek sees it :)
Wouldn't be opposed to an anti-afk feature.

[copper zodiac]

I can help

[crisp eagle]

But they will disrespect you

Go for it

bro istg wtf I left lobby cause this guy doesn't know how to play with team (played a game with them a few games prior) and I waited maybe 35 minutes, and my first req: they're back again

[manic crystal]

I need like a free for all mode so I can get used to the weapons and recoil I'm decent in games like fragpunk,split gate and warface clutch but I can't get a hang of the guns in this game

[astral moss]

You can try the weapon in the shooting range if you want.

[latent bay]

Are steel bolts for the Xbow straight upgrades from regular?

[cursive knot]

i use vpn every second of the day except when im playing online

its just

oh my god i boot up hunt and my pc decides to transition into an airplane

it just switched into a jet plane

[crisp eagle]

Not if you use p2p vpn

Find your closest p2p node and ur set

[bright plover]

Fucking unlucky.

I'm missing... 71 exp? That's 8 grunts ffs.

How do I even get an uneven number of exp? Isn't the smallest you can get +10 from Grunt/spider kill?

[swift elk]

i just shoot things i dont do hunt math

[left orbit]

shoot more things next time lmao

(i’ve been there too 😭 )

[short halo]

Was that the first bounty extract of the day with that hunter?

[bright plover]

It was, yep.

[bright plover]

Tbh I was a solo rat, the fact I found the roaming boss and nobody stopped me, and I had extraction right next to me (I started with lvl 41) was just pure luck.

I had hoped 9 levels won't be that hard.

[short halo]

First bounty extract is a 15% xp bonus
That could give you an odd number

[left orbit]

yeah i did that as well a bunch to reach P100 "faster" by looting 2000XP posters 😂

when i didn’t feel like having a fight i would be doing that

i find my pleasure in sneaking past the whole map lol

now that i’m P100 i unlock all weapons. so it’s always full fight no fucks given

that being said i always start my hunt sessions with 2-3 matches of not hitting anything at all

for some reason my brain need to recalibrate aim every time

[bright plover]

The PVE is kind of mundane, the AI is just horribly bad, but I do enjoy strolling around the map and farming AI, especially trying to hit moving targets at a long range.

Weirdly satisfying. Like, good work me, you cleared the map, now you get to enjoy no stress game (I still stress out a ton in case I die to a random fucking alert mine next to an explosive berrel).

[left orbit]

agreed. i’ve always found the AI absolutely dogshit.

[left orbit]

same. although, i died about 5 times to camping duos that just didn’t do shit the whole game except sitting ammo carts and trying to get the easy kills. funnily enough, they always got clapped when going to the bounty (yes, i’m petty enough to spectate and crossing my fingers for them to die ridiculously)

5 lvl 50 hunters lost 😭

[cursive knot]

guys what sniper should i run

im prolly gonna run trios for a bit before i man up and play solo

but i need to level my snipers

[mild flower]

That's Soul Survivor.

[left orbit]

centennial with scopesmith is cheap and very efficient i think.

[cobalt oxide]

guys what is this shit, it dured since i died , after i died it stopped

[cursive knot]

ive heard a lot of people hate on it tho

[left orbit]

i wonder why. go for the head. 600mv or 700+ with HV, and it repeats very well

people hate things for no good reason imho lmao

[ancient cave]

I don't think there is a bad sniper

[cobalt oxide]

i can't move at all

[mild flower]

martini henry explo

[ancient cave]

there is no martini sniper

[cursive knot]

i could 100% make it work

if i put my mind to it

[left orbit]

bad timing server connection just wasn’t good i guess and whatever you were sending didn’t reach it. but seemingly you could still receive information from server

[mild flower]

you dont count marksman as sniper?

[cursive knot]

bro got scammed

[left orbit]

<@&357256267087085568>

[cursive knot]

thats crazy

[mild flower]

<@&357256267087085568>

[ancient cave]

it's not to this topic

[cobalt oxide]

others didn't affect by that

[cursive knot]

youre not real if you fell for the mr beast scams

ok nvm kai cenat now

[cobalt oxide]

they continue to push me normally

[left orbit]

doesn’t matter. your internet connection and routing isn’t your friend’s one

[cobalt oxide]

so unlucky that it started after the opponent picked for the first time...

[cursive knot]

99% chance youre going to get shot from the other side of the map as soon as u load in 😂

hopefully youre running death cheat

[cobalt oxide]

and stopped after i died @left orbit

in the exact moment no seconds more

[left orbit]

🤷‍♂️ do bug report with video

#bug-reports-pc

MOOOOODS

ffs those bots

can’t have a minute of good hunt banter in here

[cursive knot]

maynard, cent or krag sniper?

idk if i wanna go full trap rat

just a lil swamp camp rat

[left orbit]

maynard if you want to have pain
cent if you want to be decent
krag if you have the money

i don’t play maynard without HV

[cursive knot]

i have 1 krag sniper in my inventory

[left orbit]

which iirc ends up being the price of the centi with the disadvantage of single shot weapon

but the maynard PPPPPPHPHHHHHHHRAAAAKKKKK sound is gold

[cursive knot]

i have FF on already

soooo

[mild flower]

naynard if you're using the silencer

[left orbit]

no no no u don’t get it

maynard FF < centi

[mild flower]

ff on maynard is kinda trash

[cursive knot]

im leveling it

i had 1 bad game w sniper and i havent played since

[left orbit]

you need to move constantly with it

[cursive knot]

i mean, is it a disadvantage ?

i already have ff on

this loadout

[left orbit]

it’s just trash

[cursive knot]

😡

how bad can it be

[left orbit]

if you want to play maynard go for it ofc but it’s just not as good as centi

bro go shooting range

[mild flower]

even if you're set on using maynard, i'd respec it for a different trait.

[left orbit]

and compare

[cursive knot]

no i get so confused in shooting range

ong

[cursive knot]

alright

[left orbit]

confused by what?

[mild flower]

from what i've heard it removes your 2 stage reload, so maybe?

[left orbit]

reload time? cycle time?

it’s going to be super obvious

[cursive knot]

no like

i cant find

[left orbit]

you clearly haven’t tried centi sniper

[cursive knot]

anything

in shooting range

[left orbit]

pickup the weapon with you, try, record, compare

ez

[mild flower]

just bring the weapon in on your hunter

[cursive knot]

😡

[left orbit]

snipers are on top of the tower btw

[cursive knot]

ok how come the ONLY time i dont bring a weapon that can have dumdum, i find dumdum

[cursive knot]

OHHH

[left orbit]

ig that’s why you were confused 😂

happy to have helped on that 😂

[cursive knot]

yeah i did NOT find them

like

at all

thank u

[sinful aurora]

randomness + selective perception.
also how often do you bring weapons which can take dumdum?

[cursive knot]

i viewed the details on the centi, and i forgot it wasnt single shot

i choked on my water when i read reload speed was 15 seconds

[cursive knot]

like once every 4 years

[sinful aurora]

well in that case you are extremely more likely to find one when you don't bring a compatible weapon.

[cursive knot]

😮‍💨

[left orbit]

it’s the full reload speed
bullet after bullet it’s not as slow

you have 12 in the tube iirc

[cursive knot]

yeah i know but i forgot

when i read it

[left orbit]

ahaha

[cursive knot]

i almost cried

wait when i picked up 2 rampage last game, it said 2/3

now theyre just

2 seperate

1/3

why is this

[left orbit]

crytek

[cursive knot]

is it bugged 💀

[left orbit]

haven’t seen anyone complaining about any rampage bug so i guess it doesn’t matter for its effectiveness

[cursive knot]

is it supposed to have 3 "stages"

[left orbit]

stacks

you can stack up to 3 on a single hunter

[cursive knot]

ohhh

so if i have 3

i get

3 stacks of rampage

isnt that like super busted

[left orbit]

urm no
you stack 3 rampage max

[cursive knot]

tomato tomato

wait i had a massive brainfart

mb

i understand

[left orbit]

take some rest 😂

[cursive knot]

NEVER

[left orbit]

lul

oke back to work

yea, it was

i didn't buy it back then

guess karma caught up to me now because that's what i got from todays drops

For the Rival 78, why do you only get 5 in reserve? Like....it's a double barrel, isn't it?

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

[scarlet plinth]

Does anti-aliasing matter when it comes to gameplay or any other settings that matters when it comes to spotting enemy players?

[fathom shale]

It can matter since there's so much vegetation and small cracks in the game and anti aliasing affects how much shimmering you'll see around all that as well as how sharp things are

[scarlet plinth]

Mmm

Well…sharpness do sometimes help

If im not sleepy

[fathom shale]

You can see good competitive settings here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gUfrH2x7Zw

[scarlet plinth]

I literally watched it after i typed this mesg kek

I came back to hs cause am bored

Last time was…

June 3

[cursive knot]

dude there is no way

im never running maynard

ok its a skill issue

but like

the hitreg is off

idk

it was a obv headshot

from like

130 meters

nope

didnt kill her

[mild flower]

lead and account for drop

do you have a clip?

[scarlet plinth]

Oh wait, is Del Salle back

[cursive knot]

i mean the drop was non existent, i saw the bullet hit her head and she flinched like a headshot

[mild flower]

you saw bullet hit head? what? maynard has incendiary? and you were using it?

[cursive knot]

i spammed my clip button

que my horror

when i realize

medal isnt running

[cursive knot]

no like

i was still scoped in

and she reacted like it was a headshot

[mild flower]

only incendiary rounds have tracers. so you did not, in fact, see the bullet hit her head.

[cursive knot]

not sure if i saw blood

[cursive knot]

i saw her head get hit by said bullet *

[mild flower]

if she reacted like it was a headshot she would have died- did you get a hitmarker?

[wooden cipher]

What was the twitch drop command?

I wanna see the tabs

[cursive knot]

like i said its probably a skill issue or server sided issue

i did get a hitmarker

didnt hear the hs noise

it threw me off

thats all

[mild flower]

it probably just dropped a bit and hit chest

[cursive knot]

wiped her team and got shot from behind by another solo

🥹

[mild flower]

if it counted as a hit, then it would count as a hit where it actually hit due to the way the game registers shots

[cursive knot]

like i said

most likely

server sided

or

skill issue

[mild flower]

yea i'm trying to disprove this possibility ^
hunt has client-based hitreg, so if your shot registered at all [got through the ping window], and signs would point towards it did, it would register where it hit on your end.

i think it was just unlucky

and hit the very top of the chest

[cursive knot]

mhm ive been having some latency issues lately

or like u said

might be unlucky

[mild flower]

^ this is also why you can get hit just after getting behind cover as if you werent in cover at all.

[pine condor]

just got killed by the pettiest team ever. was finishing up setting some keg traps around key points of the map, before i noticed they were about to leave. used the chariot card, so their only option was to go for the middle extract, to come to me. instead they ran to the furthest corner and sat there. i made my way over, thinking theyd offed themselves. nope. waiting with beetles. they lynched me, shot all of my guns bullets into my body then burned me

still got one though get kegged bozo

[keen herald]

Wow

Im new, joined the server just to ask about a skin XD

[pine condor]

chariot brings a primal rage out in people

[mild flower]

that's weird. the shooting sound nowhere near matches up with the animation

[pine condor]

that is weird.

[loud vapor]

That’s why I do it to my own teammates after we’ve ran to the extract.

[pine condor]

im still waitin for my duo to get his new pc, i cant wait for him to run into my keg traps that i told him about 2 minutes ago

[dreamy cave]

No

[keen herald]

Time for my first game ;-; wish me luck

[mild flower]

good luck. if it's your very first, i think you're going to get put against bots. think you ought to know

apparently now until rank 11 you get bot matches

(which i do not think is a good decision)

[tame magnet]

Don’t crouch walk, best advice I can give

[keen herald]

OH and what's the difference between bounty hunt and clash

[dreamy cave]

You will really feel to difference once you get in to real lobbies lol god speed

[keen herald]

Ok

[keen herald]

Good to know

[tame magnet]

Clash is like Cod, bounty hunt is hunt

[keen herald]

Ah

[tame magnet]

Clash is also low pop

[pine condor]

Be careful around corners, behind doors and in the nest, some people(not me) like to set copious amounts of keg/satchel traps

[mild flower]

Clash is set in 1 compound and the boss is already slain. It's like a quickplay team deathmatch.

Hunt is the main gamemode and it set across the whole map. You have to kill the boss yourself, and there is PvE involved. Matches of hunt usually last much longer and have less PvP combat, but the buildup and strategizing before the combat makes it more fun in the end imo.

[pine condor]

Bounty hunt is the best version of hunt and the proper experience

[keen herald]

Bouta get carried

[mild flower]

Clash is a nice warmup or if you don't have much freetime

[pine condor]

I give clash a wide berth. Just not for me. Hunt isn't hunt without the threat of AI. And it's hard enough getting lobbies in oce. I don't wanna play with cod kids. If they enjoy it that's nice but I'll pass.

The one thing I would love for hunt, would be to be able to load up hunt most days of the week and get atleast half full lobbies not just 2/7 days. Its definitely not a dead/dying game but over in oce we're roughing it

[mild flower]

I gave up on oce servers a bit ago, except for absolute peak hours. I just play Asia atp

[mild flower]

Indeed we are o7

[pine condor]

On the weekend you can get full lobbies which isn't bad when I'm working full weeks. I just don't want to deal with the ping of Asia or USwest but sometimes we gotta do what we gotta do

[scarlet plinth]

Would you rather use the winfield only for a week

[pine condor]

Usually there's an or

[cursive knot]

whats the best vetterli variant in yalls opinion

[icy elbow]

Cyclone

[random nimbus]

[cursive knot]

bet imma make a loadout around it

just tried it out

[lofty sinew]

oce still not so bad on weekdays. a lot of duos and solos though ofc

also, they need to patch the dark dynamite egg thing, it's bullshit. self triggering traps that can't be visually identified without a trait is just crap.

[scarlet plinth]

A

[copper pawn]

do people at 5 stars lose brain cells every time they play hunt?

[mild flower]

You get some players, it's just that they're all solos who are exp farming and run away to extract the moment they realise you are pushing them.

[scarlet plinth]

But honestly

Whats that pump action rifle?

I forgot the name

[pine condor]

marathon?

[scarlet plinth]

Marathon?

Oh god

[pine condor]

goes hard af

[mild flower]

Marathon

[pine condor]

love the new skin with the spine on the barrel

[scarlet plinth]

Im sorry but

No

Idk

Either im good with it or bad

Its weird, its like im using a starter gun from every fallout game

[copper pawn]

had team mate with 1865 carbine who was fighting at 120-130 meter range

5 stars player

[scarlet plinth]

The revolver one?

One of the beet

2nd place the russian revolver

[lofty sinew]

i mean.. i fought mostly teams this evening. it's not as bad as you imply

[scarlet plinth]

Oh that

Ehh

[copper pawn]

I don't get it and this is not first time when 5 stars doing something so stupid

[lofty sinew]

star bracket means nothing

there, it makes sense now

[copper pawn]

stars should show how good someone is, but i guess hunt doesn't have anything to show that

[lofty sinew]

it is at best, only a very very vague estimation of someones skill level

people who play like total goobers make it to 6*

playing like a total coward will generally raise your bracket if you run away at the first sign of potential death. And it won't make you better at the game.

[copper pawn]

hmm

shooters need new way to count how good someone is

[lofty sinew]

it doesn't matter, imho

if hunt had 100x more players, the bracket system would work a little better

[copper pawn]

I guess

[lofty sinew]

it is what it is, as they say. not sure what it would take for hunts playerbase to grow significantly, nor am i sure if anything like that will ever happen

watcha get is a mixed bag. just shoot the mans. enjoy the good lobbies. don't sweat the sad ones too much

[crystal bay]

Very true

[strong moon]

there is no mathematical solution to matchmaking in an asymmetric game like Hunt, unfortunately. Just doesn't exist.

[copper pawn]

the only reason I care so much about it, because hunt has that feel when you shoot

[jaunty patio]

Interesting to see the old names in these new promo images, looks like there's still some true believers in the real names behind the scenes

[copper pawn]

you know you did something when it hits a person

and you don't need full mag of bullets in a head to down a person

[mild flower]

Down with regen shot

[crystal bay]

Regen shot isn't terrible for that

You really have to give them time for it to undo whatever damage you dealt from hitting them

Restoration shot on the other hand, even if you down someone they can fix what you did to em

[mild flower]

In hunt it's really not that long. But I agree that restoration is even worse for the game

[crystal bay]

Overtime though regen shot is really good

[high dawn]

Hunt is a niche game that appeals to a niche audience

[crystal bay]

I mean yeah if you are just plinking at each other long distance they have plenty of time, but it really does depend on what type of fight you're having whether regen shot helps or not

[high dawn]

It doesnt need to blow up to stay fun and successful, just small casual growth w every update is fine

[crystal bay]

I just play more aggressive and if I can hunt them down after hitting them but that is not always possible

[mild flower]

My issue with regen shot is that without it, if you hit someone, you were forcing them to use a resource. It lead to these really fun attrition fights that were unique to hunt.

Now you have to assume everyone you shoot has regen and they aren't using any resources at all.

[high dawn]

i agree w this hardcore, regen shot really did change the way fights are extended and fought almost singlehandedly

[mild flower]

But you can't tell they have regen when they do, so for this to work, you just have to assume everyone has it. That's the problem

[high dawn]

i remember when regens first dropped LOL the general aggression of the game nearly tripled overnight

[crystal bay]

I mean, if I'm going for them right after I tag em, they either aren't going to heal up enough from it, or it won't have even started

but this is pretty close quarters

if it does become an extended chase then yeah they can definitely heal up more through it

[mild flower]

Right but is it not more fun to have variety and not be forced to push after every tag or you get literally nothing from it?

[crystal bay]

That is true, while it's not like you would typically kill someone by plinking them repeatedly at a long range, you would at least have been using up their meds

[high dawn]

tbh though, i do think i prefer its existence, i think extending fights in an already lethal game is a good choice. It doesnt diminish the lethality entirely, and it isn't a copout fixall; two well placed shots under 30m will drop with everything that aint a shotgun

[mild flower]

This

It was a layer of strategy that is now next to gone

[crystal bay]

I like going for the kill so it's what I try to do typically anyway but it wouldn't be as fun if it felt forced I agree

[dreamy cave]

I love me some 20 min server fights

[storm flume]

Are we now at a stage where we complain about Regen shots? Boy wait until you hear about how common Anti-Venom is on High Rank lobbies! Boy wait until you learn about Poison-Conc Combo... You can go endless like that.

Lets keep going until it's just CS 1.6

No medkits, no heals, frag, flash, smoke.

[high dawn]

Yes but it does mean that fights are more focused to save the healing and extend combat overall. You either hit those plinking headshots, or you rush the aggression and get closer. Being a better gunfighter will always beat healing

[mild flower]

Regen shot can be in the game imo, but it needs to be an actual drainable resource. Something like making it use up its timer faster when actively healing missing health.
@crystal bay pinging seeing as I mean this message regarding both of you as part of this conversation

[mild flower]

Textbook slippery slope ^ ^

[high dawn]

I could agree w this tbh, it certainly needs more finetuning, but the general existence of it makes combat overall better imo and i do not want it gone LMAO, i love not having to use healing until its necessary (esp if i get dinged by mobs)

[outer iron]

Caldwell, but square

[jaunty patio]

That layer of strategy was pretty well disliked by the community as it extended the longstanding distant long ammo vs camping compound shotgun problem. Years of complaining about people who didn't want to budge from their preferred range increments. Plus it meant pure damage was king. No point plinking with compact ammo as it won't burn enough resources per landed hit. With regen, it's no longer pure damage that is king but follow-through, which opens up more choices.
Since 2.0 there's been quite a few changes that have helped diversify people's choice in loadouts and I think that's good.

[storm flume]

Yeah nothing makes me want Anti-Venom removed than an R6 blasting through my Poison-Conc Trap because he also slapped bloodless on himself, as he 360 Spin FMJ me through wall using Levering WInfield as my Poison Ammo dealt 0 DMG to him.

[dreamy cave]

They nerfed the shit out of it lol leave my regen shots alone 🙏🏿

[storm flume]

BASTARDS! BASTARDS I Tell ye!

[high dawn]

Personally i think they should only have one regen shot and it should be 5 mins flat, no weak vers

They wont do that tho bc skins

[outer iron]

Regen shot is fine. If they aren't going down gotta go for headshots or get closer to deal more damage.

[mild flower]

This is fair. But I think a middle ground should be reached.

And there's enough mechanics now that disincentivize that sort of occurrence that regen shot doesn't need to be so good at it that it holds the entire weight of anti-stalemating

[high dawn]

word for word bar for bar

[storm flume]

I think regen shot is less of an issue compared to 3 squads sitting around lair with spitzer scope waiting for bounty to come out.

Best gameplay ever.

[high dawn]

Window camping w mosin all game afraid to go for combat

[storm flume]

Regen shot has nothing to do with that mentality.

[high dawn]

Regen shot allows u to make riskier, aggressive plays and change the flow of combat

[dreamy cave]

I think they forgot bullets do dmg lol

[whole furnace]

Not hard to push out of

[high dawn]

Wdym my winny73c isnt twotapping the chest at 87m?

[storm flume]

Yep you just bait a few shots, so other squads start moving towards agro squad and then you bail out when those idiots start fighting eachother.

[outer iron]

Like if you're in some staggered out fight where you're plinking eachother and nobody is dying, one of you is fucking up.
Because in 99% of the time you hit them, the head was somewhere available in that scene, you just didn't hit it.

[mild flower]

@jaunty patio really I think regen shot has contributed to stalemates in some ways, seeing as teams getting tags on each other no longer have an incentive to push after burning resources and gaining a resource advantage. i believe with the mechanics in place in the game right now, "stalemates" could be battles of resources where players are incentivised to push once they have drained the opposition's resources and have the advantage.

[dreamy cave]

Needs more bullets

[storm flume]

But sometimes ironically nobody takes the bait that's where you just start watching anime on the side until you hear shooting.

https://tenor.com/wZJg.gif

[storm flume]

If you sus Regen shot then just wait 5 min go watch "Basic Computing Skills" tutorial you'll need it when you get a job 😄

There you saved ammo, you burnt through their regen shot hell you can even bait some extra shots out

[outer iron]

This event kinda fucked that up. You can multiply your regen to ABSURD levels right now. Better to just blow their dome.

[storm flume]

https://tenor.com/bNzD9.gif

It's an event thing

[wheat pilot]

Is there some fast way to grind the "damage with consumables" challenge? I know I could just bring a lot of dynamite and throw it at every opportunity but I feel like in the end 90% of the time an explosive forces your enemy to reposition rather than actually dealing damage

[mild flower]

Id rather not wait 8 min thanks

[dreamy cave]

Clash

[storm flume]

Frags? Since they also deal bleed

[steep narwhal]

@wheat pilot i would go with traps

[storm flume]

Then you need to play Quake

Reminder original Hunt was 1h per match.

[outer iron]

Frags are absurd. Stone walls become paper. Just spam those.

[dreamy cave]

Aint 1h no more tho lol

[storm flume]

So you know patience is part of the game.

[mild flower]

Also you can't just "sus" regen shot. It has no telegraph other than the sound at the very start of the shot that is identical to all the others @storm flume

[jaunty patio]

The incentive to push is that if you don't, the shot is wasted, switching the resource advantage to one of "I'm running out of bullets" rather than "He's running out of medkits". It places the onus on the attacker to move forward and treat each tag as an opportunity rather than stay comfortable in a war of attrition where they had already made successful shots.

[storm flume]

It's called a game sense? Same way I can figure out if enemy has Shadow.

[outer iron]

If you aren't in another zip code you can listen to see if they use a medkit.

[storm flume]

IF a guy vanishes for a bit and then re-peeks there is high probability it's Regen as he needs to wait to regen

On flip side if he is reusming peeks fast it's likely medkit or health injection

[mild flower]

This is a common play even among people with no regen though

[outer iron]

On that note I need to try out the strat of regen + vigor. It sounds fun.

[storm flume]

Oh i am sorry i didn't know you needed flash indicator to make a guess...

Next time open mic and say "Hey! Are you on Regen!"

and they will reply

[wheat pilot]

There are like 50 reasons why someone would disappear for a bit before resuming the fight

[storm flume]

"YEAH MAN JUICED UP!"

The point is, guessing is part of the game.

Make a call and own it.

[mild flower]

Strawman

[storm flume]

Wall bang is a guess (Unless you've WH), what the enemy injected or not is a guess.

You hear it or not it gives you a guess

not a fact.

[outer iron]

I play a guessing game every round "Are they packing a pocket shotty? And will they send me right back to the lobby?"

[storm flume]

Ah the classic when you're about to breach a lair "I wonder if it's shotguns."

https://tenor.com/uNgm.gif

[outer iron]

I lose this guessing game a lot, but I will not abandon my fanning ways.

[storm flume]

Tip: Do slow peek and if you hear rushing as you try to slowly peek that corner instantly bolt

Because rushing usually already indicates a shotgun while rifle would likely wait for you to peek too far

[mild flower]

Wallbangs can be done accurately with audio information and if you see movement through cracks or see an enemy's path as they move behind cover

[outer iron]

Yeah. That's what my brain has come to. If I hear someone rushing it's either melee or shotguns, and 90% of the time it ain't melee.

[dreamy cave]

They dont expect fanning when youre running a shotgun lol "oh he has to reload his shotgun" 🪭

[storm flume]

Yeah those are usually "WELL THEN!"

[outer iron]

I can fan from slighter better than shotgun range, but if I fall into their one shot territory it's over. Unless its slugs in which case I never stood a chance.

[storm flume]

but hey it's always fun to have something "NEW"

[mild flower]

Slow peek is usually a terrible idea unless you're trying to get headshotted

Enemy sees you miles before you see them and you bundle yourself up into a nice little target

[storm flume]

I'll admit fanning generally lost its appeal to me a good old bolter or romero.

[storm flume]

https://tenor.com/bQSNq.gif

[outer iron]

I just like revolvers.

Feels cool to mag dump.

[storm flume]

I've really fallen in love with basic lemat when i carry 1 ammo type shotgun

FMJ + DB FOR BURNS

I free up a slot in consumable and tool

[dreamy cave]

https://tenor.com/view/justified-gun-spinning-revolver-gun-gif-22041686

[storm flume]

Dual Lemat with DB and a Bolter also works nicely

[dreamy cave]

Its actually pretty hard to spin a real gun lol

[outer iron]

Lemat is goated. And that backup shotty lets me take fights.

[storm flume]

I just use it as my "Burn the body" slot consolidation

[mild flower]

What?
Thank you ?

[outer iron]

I use basic ammo with it because nothing from it quite pairs with the officer carbine.

[storm flume]

Officer Carabine, Well... 🤔

[outer iron]

I did that on some builds. No need for a flare gun.

[storm flume]

I usually take a fire handcrossbow? It's kinda one of my fav combos with rifles but i usually carry that with mosin bayo

It's really nice to just lure sitting ducks out

And if lucky you burn a bar off in the process

Making them soft and nice for you to finish off.

And you don't need bolt-thrower for that combo so saves slot

[outer iron]

Yeah. I pack mini crossbow with utility rounds when I run infantry bayonet levering. Its good utility to have.

Run stank and db with it. Does work.

[storm flume]

Stank?

[outer iron]

Poison. Makes stank clouds.

[storm flume]

AH!

Yeah i used to do that but when they nerfed the pools so hard

I just take Firebolts and that's it

[outer iron]

It ain't amazing but it can remove people from windows.

[storm flume]

6 Shots is enough to wear out a campy / cornery squad and burn bodies

[outer iron]

And act like a minor trap.

[storm flume]

Not sure what ranks you're on but R5-R6 generally MOST have anti-venom on.

EU

[storm flume]

https://tenor.com/bLufd.gif

Howdy pardner

[random nimbus]

They nerfed the poison clouds?

[storm flume]

nerfed the pools

AMMO POOLS

[random nimbus]

But didn't they buff the ammo reserves?

[storm flume]

Firebolt 1 slot - 3 shots

Has been so for a while

2 slots - 6 shots

[outer iron]

I'm a mmr4, a 5 on a bad day. I don't think most these people pack antidote.

[random nimbus]

Dragonbolts always had less, iirc

[storm flume]

Yeah R4 generally it's less common

[left orbit]

got a nitro, auto cringe and iron side. guess i’m gonna be a pain tonight

[storm flume]

I honestly don't think any of those guns are that strong or fun?

[mild flower]

It typically comes from 4 shot boons

[storm flume]

Romero Talon - Regular + DB Ammo... 😄

[outer iron]

Ironside is fun. I liked running it with explosive.

[random nimbus]

Im so sick of 4shot boon too

[outer iron]

test

[mild flower]

Yeah if hunt is always gonna be in an event at least get rid of the recurring things that throw off game balance so much every now and then

[storm flume]

Well explosive ammo generally is a meme ammo, and i guess it makes sense on ironside i think Mako also had it. I don't run Mako much because slow cycling, more effective weapons available

[left orbit]

had 4 kills in less than 10 seconds in a compound just spamming the cringe-4 without even trying, sooooo idk you tell me 😄 usually i’m very much less efficient XDXDXD

[outer iron]

Oh fuck. Yeah you're right.

[random nimbus]

Or at least make it cost more to get.

[outer iron]

Maybe I'll ditch poison. I forgot how common 4 shot was. Or maybe I'll just wait until I'm deep in a round.

[storm flume]

If i see 4 Shots and my goal isn't to finish 8K ASAP then 4 Shots I take

[outer iron]

Wow poison has become useless LMAO.

[storm flume]

In 4 shots I trust.

[random nimbus]

1 point just makes it too easy to stack and refresh at Bileweaver den and wagons

[storm flume]

NERF! BAN! REMOVE! CS1.6 lets go!

https://tenor.com/bcA7p.gif

That's CS:Source tho not 1.6

BUt oh well

[left orbit]

pretty much yes

the 4 shot boon should really just be a 3 shot... without antidote

[outer iron]

Regen and Stamina is already a gamechanging thing to have.

[left orbit]

yep

plus the judgement…

i mean i made a game with idk 35+ minutes of regen

#nofucksgiven

it makes engagements more brain less imho

allows lots of room for mistakes

not necessarily a bad thing considering how frustrating it can be to get punished severely for the slightest mistake, or just taking too much time to finish a fight before your single regen shot finishes

but it removes some of the spice of the game

[wheat pilot]

Stam shots are overrated imo

and a lot of people crutch on them because they can't manage their stamina

they are good but I don't think having a stam shot is as necessary as some people make it seem

[left orbit]

depends if you plan to sit the nest with the second bounty coming to you or not

spoderz

[outer iron]

I keep stamina on some builds for spamming down the boss with big melee.

[chrome stratus]

Loadout idea:
Railroad hammer
Railroad hammer
Medkit
4x stam shots

[wheat pilot]

Every time my railroad hammer runs out of ammo I wish I took a 2nd one

[fathom shale]

Main reason I use stamina is that getting revived without it active sucks as you're slowed down with zero stamina

[wheat pilot]

but i still never do it

[fathom shale]

And resilience overwrites adrenaline

[slow thunder]

ammo box

[left orbit]

very useful to get necroed in the middle of crows hunters with a katana and full stam

sprotch sprotch sprotch

[wheat pilot]

Maybe this is my personal experience but it's not that often that I find myself having to immediately run really fast after being revived. Or at least it happens rarely enough that there are other things I could take which I would find useful more often than the stam shot

tho this may also be because the friend i play with has pretty bad aim so if im the first one to go down we are usually just dead

[outer iron]

If I'm reviving, it means we won the fight. I barely ever have necro these days.

[fathom shale]

I play usually aggressively so I get downed in positions where I need to move out of as soon as possible when I'm up again, and I find throwables cringe so my consumables are 100% utility either way

[outer iron]

I had a friend go AFK yesterday after he died because necro has become so unused by us. He got killed while AFK because he didn't expect necro.

[left orbit]

boo your friend for not telling you s.he would be afk

com-mu-ni-ca-tion

[outer iron]

Even if he did I probably wouldn't have noticed. We were in deep and I was fucked five ways from friday.

[wooden cipher]

Was DeSalle always so autumn-like?

[scenic plinth]

it was always a bit yellow yeah

[wooden cipher]

Hmm

Then Im just tripping

I thought they changed it to autumn vibe

To be fair I havent played Hunt since February

There are 4 maps in total, right?

Lawson Delta, DeSalle, Mammoth, Stillwater

[mild flower]

What's wrong with throwables?

[scarlet plinth]

God damn finally

[jaunty patio]

It wasn't. It had yellowed trees but DeSalle 2.0 is more concretely and aggressively autumn themed

[fathom shale]

They are boring, I enjoy Hunt for it's gunfights, not when someone decides to lob a nade to end a fight early if you can't get out of it's AoE

[frigid ibex]

Nade and flashes were meta for many years. Glad to see the syringe meta instead

[mild flower]

Yeah imo surefoot is a problem with this, otherwise there's always time unless you're in a bad pos 👍

I can see how it's less satisfying though

[restive plume]

there are no cheaters in hunt 😄 Uppercut 1 Shoot Headshoot gg

[wooden cipher]

So Im not trippin' after all 😄

[fathom shale]

Literally noone argues that there are no cheaters in Hunt

[teal narwhal]

yeah good strawman

[fathom shale]

Looks like there is an angle there though

[cursive knot]

meh i kinda could see him hitting that

like a 1 in a million shot

most likely cheating

[frigid ibex]

Doesn't have to be 1 in a million. Did they have scan?

[fathom shale]

Not even 1 in a million

[frigid ibex]

Did they make noise?

[fathom shale]

There's literally a line of sight there, the killview positions are not 100% accurate

[unique condor]

Lebel skin in the discounted BB store for 48BB's incase noone knew

[fathom shale]

They could have easily just straight up seen the person in that angle

[frigid ibex]

It was definitely in line of sight

[frigid ibex]

Which one

[unique condor]

can't remember lol i'm in a match atm

[unique trail]

Hi my name is HUNT TWITCH DROPS

[unique trail]

Where is discounted BB store

[dreamy cave]

The boring one lol i forgot the name

[uneven sandal]

I hit this every time

[dreamy cave]

The 48bb skins are mixed in with the other weapon skins on sale

[unique trail]

Is that a good deal idk

Never bought any skins with BB

[uneven sandal]

isnt altar boy the 48bb lebel

[unique trail]

Only battlepass

[icy elbow]

Most skins are hundreds of BB so yes

48 BB is a good deal

[dreamy cave]

If you like the skin yes absolutely a great deal

They do have some good 48bb skins sometimes

[heavy finch]

depends entirely on what gun the skin is for. for instance. Default nagant pistol is a rip of no matter how cheap it is.

[olive vapor]

​"I really don't know what to do anymore, I haven't been able to play for five days because of this."

Besides the hunters so far, everything after the 1886 update is no longer Mythic?

[crystal bay]

That may be about right I think

After 1896 they moved farther and farther away from making things mythical

aside from charms these days

There are a few weapon skins I believe that came out after 1896 that are mythical I want to say but I can't recall them off the top of my head

[dim rune]

also about the health bar what is the difference between the small one and big one?

[dim rune]

ty

[opal dawn]

Anyone else notice how wonky the AI can be in this event?

[cursive knot]

yeah

or do u mean behaviour wise

[opal dawn]

Dog just staring, spooder also just standing still and lookin' at ya

[cursive knot]

ahh i havent noticed that

although

[opal dawn]

Behavior wise yes

[cursive knot]

the zombies are super weird sometimes

[outer iron]

Yeah Assassin is almost completely broken.

[cursive knot]

either they spot u from across the map or they let u walk up to them

[outer iron]

I've had SEVERAL times this event where the boss just manifests as a puddle and doesn't move until its dead.

[opal dawn]

I don't mind that tbh, spider and assassin are the most annoying ones to deal with, so if they just stand and take it then I'm more than fine with it

[scarlet plinth]

God damn those spiders

[compact sinew]

VALIDATING FILES

[unique trail]

Thanks I will take a look later today

[scenic plinth]

i like this one better

[icy elbow]

What

[scenic plinth]

thanks scott hartman

[lusty echo]

I agree with him.

Some of it is incoherently run on babble, but is there really a point with being articulate for Crytek anymore?

[icy elbow]

You’re mad they’re bringing back skins?

[lusty echo]

No

I don't care at all

Lag fest

[icy elbow]

Scott Hartman is mad they’re bringing back skins people worked hard for

[lusty echo]

Game is basically unplayable unless you're on PC and have proper specs

"Lag fest server nightmare" is actually a cooler rebrand than "1896."

[lusty echo]

I used to care about that, but galaxy brain gigachad Crytek fixed it by making The Headsman a Grand Wizard, so... 🤷‍♂️

[icy elbow]

Headsman reskin has nothing to do with them deciding to bring back non mythic skins

[lusty echo]

...are you actively unaware of causality, or..?

[shadow sierra]

has this guy never heard of punctuation

ran out of breath reading that

[lusty echo]

He apparently has not.

[icy elbow]

Headsman was never mythic and was reskinned like a year before anything related to mythic was ever changed

Not even an event skin

or battle pass, rather

[rare quiver]

I cannot play the game, error x300001 or something, is this fixable?

[lusty echo]

You need education. Long ago, rarity never existed. In a nutshell, Crytek pissed their panties and decided to make a very hard to obtain skin you had to smash an absolutely ungodly amount of pumpkins to get available to anyone with mommy's purse, so then everyone ran it and 6 star sweatlords / casual babies cried that the skin was kind of hard to see, so now he's a hate crime no one without a very questionable gamertag indicating a strong sense of "Southern Hertiage" runs, usually alongside Pappy. And yeah, this happened because they decided to make it available for purchase.

Your arguement holds water as well as a net.

[umbral onyx]

god i hope one day that they seperate patch notes and real announcements from them trying to promote their band

[bitter wyvern]

I think we're taking the concept of a texture swap on a bunch of ones and zeros a little too seriously.

[icy elbow]

Oh I forgot he was a reward for the first time but he was brought back for like 3 years before they changed him

[frigid ibex]

Reoccuring events such as Halloween and Christmas/Yule has always brought back older skins in form of BB

[icy elbow]

Not really what I would call exclusive

Now if we’re talking about like plague doctor or the light the shadow skins I would agree more

[lusty echo]

Hunt has cancer. The cancer is godawful hit detection, server lag, bad code, and poor management. DLC has nothing to do with this and is a cosmetic, like nail polish. According to everything Crytek has been doing, the only way to fix Hunt is in our hands! We can do it by throwing a lot of time and money at the tonedeaf Devs so they can put more nail polish on Hunt's pinky finger instead of get it the chemotherapy it desperately needs. Game is on life support and they're being finicky over which shade blends best with their outfit.

[icy elbow]

Or the ugly ass rerelease of the reptilian skins

[lusty echo]

That's how they should have treated Headsman, Mama Maye, The Devil's Advocate, and Skinflint: Uglier newer skins for the FOMO plebians, good shtuff for the OG's that busted ass.

[spark plaza]

amogus

[fathom shale]

Truly sad to see Hunt dying/dead for the 700th time this month alone, always brings a tear to my eye 😔

[frigid ibex]

You can discuss your dislike to the game or the game direction all you want but I advise you drop this cancer and chemotherapy talk. It's just disrespectful at any level.

[lusty echo]

Brutal analogy, fair enough.

Hunt is an astronaut trying to go to space. The Devs seem to be very worried about which flight pin to put on their lapel.

Better?

[manic crystal]

Try different regions when you are matchmaking

[lusty echo]

All are trash. East is a dumpster fire nightmare. West is okay sometimes. There rest are ping fests.

[fathom shale]

Haven't had any issues playing EU and US East personally

[cobalt oxide]

guys why in this game there are a lot of people that play csgo

[fathom shale]

Considering the amount of csgo players, not really surprising

[lusty echo]

I'm glad to hear that!

I and many others have not had that luxury.

[cobalt oxide]

yeah but i play also other games online , for example also rust , or sea of thieve, but i never encount so much players that play also csgo there

[worn oak]

I'm reading about this matter from 2019. People...

[lusty echo]

First off, was the updated analogy better? And second... can I? I tend to get actions taken against me that I can't discuss when I try and communicate with some degree of frequency.

[tall canopy]

many people i oplayed with mostly also played dbd. there are many games with overlapping playerbases ig

[jaunty patio]

Hunt is a tactical pvp shooter so it's got a lot more overlap with csgo than those games

[fathom shale]

Also how often do you check people's profiles in those games? I'd assume a lot less than in Hunt where you're presented a list on unique players after every match

[muted dome]

little to 0 similarities between hunt and CSGO

oh, my bad, I misunderstood the conversation

[lusty echo]

I mean, there is a lot more twitchy angle shooting these days.

[muted dome]

I politely pull away

[clear fossil]

both are team based pvp games i quess their playerbase being similar is expected

[lusty echo]

Counting down the days until Arc Raiders.

[clear fossil]

7 something days

[icy elbow]

I want to like arc raiders more than I did playing the server slam

[clear fossil]

what was the problem with arc

[icy elbow]

nothing the problem I just didn’t really vibe with the PVP

[fathom shale]

I hate it being in 3rd person

Seeing enemies without showing your body at all is cringe

[icy elbow]

yeah I wasn’t a big fan of the peak shoot meta because of the camera

[clear fossil]

i really liked the pvp personally
and i think the third person is really good for how the game works

[lusty echo]

I love Hunt. And I hate that I do, honestly. It is so lovingly crafted, unqiue, smart, great lore, but all of this bloat and lack of focus - especially since 1896 - just isn't it. I wish Crytek would either give up on the CryEngine and start using UE5 (they can keep CrySpatial, audio is pretty stellar,) or just put this franchise out of its misery.

[fathom shale]

Changing to UE5 is the last thing they should do lmao

[tall canopy]

lmao u cant just switch the engine what

[clear fossil]

sure you can peak enemies but that only gives you a single shots advantage

[lusty echo]

Well, I mean, they certainly can't program their own, so... 🤷‍♂️

[fathom shale]

Again, has been fine for me

Unlike most UE5 slop games that have come out

[lusty echo]

That's very tone deaf of you.

[icy elbow]

Bro is picking fights

[fathom shale]

One thing I will give Arc Raiders props for for sure is that they managed to actually make an optimized UE5 game instead of taking the lazy way out and using the tech that has made so many of the games that run on that engine run like ass

[lusty echo]

Not so much as addressing inaccuracies.

[icy elbow]

I was very glad to hear they would rework arcs being able to see you at insane distances through trees

Also working on optimization for low settings not rendering in like any ground foliage

that was crazy

[lusty echo]

Again, super happy for you, but many players are having major problems because there are major problems. Especially on console - it is a nightmare.

Imagine talking about how much fun it is to fly to the wingless.

[fathom shale]

And I'd argue that implying that they should switch to UE5 is one of the most tone deaf ideas I have heard in a while, period

[frigid ibex]

UE5 devs tend to rely too much on technology, turning the game into an artifact/blurry mess.

[lusty echo]

And Hunt is what, exactly?

[frigid ibex]

Instead of making it optimised

[fathom shale]

Running great, unlike most UE5 games

[clear fossil]

hunts performance in general has been fine but could be better

[lusty echo]

Hunt certainly isn't optimized and flawless, and just because you are saying it is repeatedly doesn't make it any more true.

Especially on console.

[clear fossil]

sometimes everything renders without proper textures and whatever else and sometimes my friend has unexplainable crashes and freezes

[lusty echo]

UE5 isn't a viable answer, but neither is whatever they're doing currently.

[fathom shale]

I can agree that console experience in Hunt hasn't been the best based on what I have heard from multiple people

But UE5 would make it worse, that much is certain

[lusty echo]

Possibly.

Console is unplayable, honestly.

[fathom shale]

And as blunt as it may sound, console is the minority of the playerbase so I personally don't use them as the baseline for the average Hunt experience

[lusty echo]

For every single okay match on console, there are 60 bad ones.

And it isn't like PC is keeping this shambling corpse alive. It's Xbox Gamepass.

[clear fossil]

but still about arc
i really love how the game works in its own way
it has its own style that is not similar to many other extraction shooters
third person camping hasnt caused any issues for me yet
3rd person makes the game just so much more cinematic. i like the way the one youtuber put it
if it wasnt third person people would dismiss it as futuristic tarkov

[icy elbow]

Gamepass is not a large quantity of players

[lusty echo]

And since crossplay is forever gone, people on PC get unfair advantage against people on Console, because you can launch Gamepass titles on PC.

[clear fossil]

the game needed something to separate it from being categorized as just another tarkov clone

[lusty echo]

But it IS a large source of revenue.

[jaunty patio]

Network performance and optimization is a long haul and seems to hit peaks and slopes. I've noticed the game has been doing better lately, especially compared to last year.
If console is that drastically different from PC, I have to wonder if they're using different networks. I don't think they are, because of that one bug where console and PC had a 0.001% chance to be in the same lobbies

[next mesa]

Pretty sure PC players don’t encounter console players even on game pass

[lusty echo]

Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh idk about that

[tall canopy]

theres pc game pass and xbox game pass and they dont play on the same server

[fathom shale]

Well, we do

And they do not play together

[next mesa]

Well, we do

[fathom shale]

Console and PC are separate

[lusty echo]

Good to know.

[tidal haven]

lol

[frigid ibex]

I'm only posting to increase the red names

Hello

[next mesa]

The only crossplay that exists is between xbox and playstation

[icy elbow]

Too many red names in general I’m getting scared

[lusty echo]

lol

[fathom shale]

Wow way to intimidate others Dizz

[tidal haven]

Ban them all!

[lusty echo]

I expect it.

[tidal haven]

[icy elbow]

Steam and PC gamepass have cross play but not cross invite

[tidal haven]

back to work, hope ya'll are having a good day

[dense girder]

Hunt maybe has some problems, but Crytek does listen to the community as you can see in the last update and they are on their way to improve the game, so idk, play the game if you enjoy it, don't if you don't

[dense girder]

[dense girder]

I hope you do as well!

[cursive knot]

first game with cyclone i drop a 6k

this gun is so good

idc what anyone says

top 4 guns in the game

[next mesa]

Cyclone has been bonkers since they buffed the damage multipliers

[fathom shale]

I don't think anyone argues against it being strong
