I'm very new to the game, with context clues I can assume "Burn Trait" means it will disappear after however many uses, but can you purchase them again later?

fathom shale
#

Only purchasable burn trait is necromancer

#

Other ones are found in match

#

And they are all spent after one "activation" of the trait's effect

#

For example if you have relentless which protects you from losing a bar when you are downed, it disappear as soon as you die once

gleaming robin
#

Ohh okay, so you can replace Necromancer after you use it though right?

fathom shale
#

Yes

gleaming robin
#

Okay cool

fathom shale
#

Either by spending trait points to buy another one in the lobby or finding one mid match or using the empress tarot card

gleaming robin
#

Gotcha, is it risky to use Necromancer? Does it revive you away from where you died or is it possible to get revived and immediately blasted again

fathom shale
#

As a solo it revives you where you died with full HP

#

So you can get blasted again immediately yeah

gleaming robin
#

Loll, is there a time limit or can you wait til whoever killed you moves away

fathom shale
#

You can wait however long you want but they can burn you and if you fully burn out then you cannot revive anymore

gleaming robin
#

Ooof

#

Okay thanks

#

I usually try to play it safe anyway, my first few matches after rank 11 were a brutal awakening

#

I was like "damn I'm getting good at this game" not knowing I was still basically in the tutorial level

ancient cave
#

if you wanna play it safe with necro just use it right before you'd be burned out completely

scenic heath
#

It is precisely because of the ability to resurrect with the help of the necromancer trait that it is necessary to burn all dead enemies, especially if there are many of them on the ground.

fathom shale
#

Decide whether or not you should necro right away or wait depending on how close the enemies are, if they killed you from medium to long range or if you died in cover it's usually better to revive fast, if they are on your body then you either wait until you hear them run away/don't hear them on your body anymore for a while or if they burn you then either wait until the very last bit of HP you have or if you can't hear them anymore then you can try reviving earlier than that

OK. blatant cheating every single game today. I just played with a guy named "Hunt has a DMA problem" and while he was explaining to me what's going on with Easy Anticheat, we get back to back headshot by people on brand new accounts. anybody i talk to in random trios about this agrees its gotten weirdly out of control lately, but everyone in this discord thinks its not and it's just 6 stars getting in my lobbies. idk what to make of it but from my perspective this game is like 10% cheating population now

deft panther
#

Literally haven't seen a cheater in like 3 weeks, what region?

fathom shale
#

I would not personally trust the average randoms teammate to know who is or isn't cheating considering the vast majority of reports of cheating are false and people just getting lucky/outskilled or such

#

Last blatant cheater I had was about 4-5 months ago while actively playing in high MMR lobbies on EU

#

I know there's some gamepass ragecheater going around making new accounts but I have yet to run into them personally

#

Based on previous unique playercount stats and bi weekly ban count stats though the amount is nowhere near 10%, it's somewhere under 1%

patent tusk

Only ever dealt with a cheater once, otherwise, I’ve had suspicion but nothing that I could ever prove said suspicions, not gonna pretend like I’m some sort of Hunt Goddess, I have good and bad games, not impossible to outplay me lmao, not gonna cry wolf every time I get outplayed bc I’m an airhead lol

bro did hunt put crack in the water today? even the three stars are playing the way six stars ussually do

mild flower
#

Gotta read it right tho

potent arrow
lofty sinew
#

6 stars often play similarly to 2* so i don't think anything needs to be in the water tbh

#

it's a game my duo often plays when up against teams that play a certain way. have to guess if they're 2* or 6* before end of lobby. It's crazy hard to guess right sometimes.

If ya losing, the least you can do is lose while having fun

tall sparrow

server issues anyone?

lofty sinew
#

it can be hard to have fun getting wrecked if you have been sufficiently demoralised. sometimes it's just time to put the game aside for the day and do other things

trail spade
#

Anything can happen but as long as I dont see my random teammate turn around and run off to exit after firing 1 shot from 5km away.. its fine

#

Seriously just fight.

lofty sinew
#

some people never lose the "oh no i might die my precious k/d" mentality

trail spade
#

If people want to rat why dont they rat in solos ??

lofty sinew
#

it's why the "are they 2* or 6*?" thing is a thing. because you can climb brackets by playing ultra careful and avoiding risks at all costs. and not actually get good at the game, because you avoid fights.

lofty sinew
#

most sane people agree

trail spade
#

They wouldnt even be able to stay 6 because as soon as they play normaly they get rekt

mild flower
#

Tbh I think MMR and KDA being invisible would be beneficial for the game.

#

Less people farming it for their ego

#

More people actually playing like a human being
Well ig farming for ego is very human..

trail spade
#

Game without ranked mode shouldnt show mmr

lofty sinew
#

when new people come in here talking like climbing brackets or gaining K/D are meaningful things to deliberately gun for, i tend to agree

trail spade
#

KDA is whatever

mild flower
#

Kda is an even bigger culprit sometimes

#

It's responsible for a lot of sniper rats

potent arrow
#

becuase even though I dont care I also do care and it makes me have an objectively worse time

trail spade
#

Me trying to reach 6 stars has genuinely impacted my enjoyment of the game. The thing is I do a lot better when I dont care and disregard all self survival insticts

tame elk
#

man my luck is insane, i did 1v3 and killed 2 people, in the middle of killing the last player. Then some other solo player comes up and one taps me from 50 meters. He then continues to push the last guy of the 3 man which they ofc got a revive off since i died. This solo player missed all of his shots against them and threw the play....

lofty sinew

Hunt is about learning to appreciate your good plays, and not regret your bad plays too much (but hopefully learn from them somehow)

trail spade
#

Hunt like any game of the genre gets better when you stop caring about deaths

lofty sinew
#

nothing magical happens when you reach 6*, you still play the same game against slightly-sweatier-on-average teams

trail spade
#

Tbh 4-5* gameplay is peak hunt, when people can actually miss instead of getting downed 24/7 from 1 shot

#

Fighting 6k hours players is not fun xD

lofty sinew
#

I mean there are players with thousands of hours in probably all of the brackets

#

playing for a long time doesn't mean you've been getting better the whole time

trail spade
#

I mean sure but at 6k hours something has to be wrong to not be a god imo

lofty sinew
#

obviously there is a correlation, but you know. a new player with good core shooter skills and game sense can waltz in and dominate lobbies

potent arrow
lofty sinew
#

nothing has to be "wrong" not everyone who plays for thousands of hours has to end up Hornet / Rachta good. that is not some natural end point of playing a game a lot

trail spade
lofty sinew
#

in oce we play the full spread of brackets all the time regardless. The 6* teams are generally more competant, yes, but they don't win every lobby

trail spade
lofty sinew

you can tell when you come up against a highly competant team yes. they aren't always 6* in my experience

6k hours is 250 days. If you do something for 250 days and you arent good..skill issue idk what to tell you.

You do anything for 240 days you are bad skill issue

#

It has nothing to do with fun

lofty sinew
#

not even sure you have a coherent point to make tbh. there is correlation with time in a thing, and associated skill level. it is absolutely not causative though.

south shore
#

It has everything to do with fun

#

Some people have lots of hours and are decidedly average but they keep playing becuase its just fun.

trail spade
#

Not at all. You spend all this time you have to be above average. Not caring doesnt mean you are bad.

lofty sinew
#

but the not caring part is supposed to be with regard to being bad is it not

#

essentially, they prioritize things they find fun about the game over trying to ape meta loadouts and play styles

it's pretty standard internet discussion stuff, trying to pin a conversation down to a specific point rather than a moving target due to miscommunication is way above 6* difficulty.

deft panther

Like, of course someone is going to be better at something by 240 days, wether it be a minor or major improvement is entirely determined on how much time and effort they put in during that 240d period

lofty sinew

well you would hope they didn't end up worse than when they started

There's always going to be bugs, yeah. New ones pop up every update. The boss AI bugging out has been a frustrating one for me.
As it stands though I think they've actually done well to improve the game like they said they would at the start of the year. It's been their focus over adding in gameplay content and such.

Final Update: I got my wish, the Prestige 15 died to an Immolator—tried to stab it with a throwing spear and was more concerned with putting himself out then killing the thing.

The Prestige 7 has gotten away safely… I think. The timer may expire before they can fully extract…

# jaunty patio There's always going to be bugs, yeah. New ones pop up every update. The boss AI...

i don't need new content all i need is for things to work as they should. UI been trash since hunt 2.0 it's been reworked few times already and still trash i can't tell you how many times i went to play hunt instead of clash, how many times i reduced item and they both unequipped how many times different trait was removed you learn to go around these things but you just can't always miss them. and what the f is that penetration "bug" it sucks as it is now... Ai running over fire without start burning, wtf is even wrong with dogs, sometimes they don't even have to touch you to start the bleed, and many many other things.

Oh one of the most frustrating things movement on some surfaces that one makes me rage...

# barren lynx i don't need new content all i need is for things to work as they should. UI bee...

That's how it's always going to go, one step forward and one step back, but the game's got more than two feet so we'll hopefully keep moving forward while these new problems get tended to. Condensing the home page was an improvement but now we've got the game mode switching bug. Loadouts and trait selection got improved but consumables and traits haven't been fixed yet. AI pathfinding and boss target attacks got some fixes but those also caused new unforeseen issues.
Game development is like a giant game of whack a mole.

Honestly didn't mind the original 2.0 UI
Needless to say it's a lot better now, but atleast my game isn't crashing to desktop when you open the MAP

^^
Literally the worst bug on 2.0 release

jaunty patio
# barren lynx Sure... so in other words be happy that you no longer get all black environmets ...

Ah shit yeah the permanent poison screens really are gone huh. That's a great example of what I mean, that bug was in the game for years and they finally tackled it once they put their focus entirely on bugfixing. The bug wasn't high priority or the fix wasn't easily implemented for a long time, but that bug existing didn't mean the game wasn't improving in other areas during all those years it persisted.

In the same way, each new problem that comes along is temporary, while improvements are (more or less) permanent. The game's in a much different place now compared to 2019, and a much better place compared to this time last year.

So ye, be happy things are improving, but still strive to inform & criticize Crytek when new bugs appear or when development takes a turn that doesn't seem healthy. It was that pressure that moved the game from all the 2.0 issues to where it is now.

they can also spawn in towers

Hmmmm alright

the dolch special ammo was literally just added to pad out battlepasses and crytek was yelled at so much till they made them scarce

you can only get those from the empress lair

i really really hope they cut down on special ammo at some point, give only a few weapons more than 2 options, but i doubt itll ever happen.

#

all bleed ammo should be scarce, change my mind

mild flower
#

also, pistol dumdum ammo is fine imo because it's one of the very few remaining reasons to bring a pistol and it's not that insane seeing as pistols dont do much base damage to begin with, so the pressure is nowhere near as much

#

apart from that yeah sure

leaden herald
#

I'd say the biggest remaining reason to bring a pistol is to have a gun when you're out in your main weapon, so idk

mild flower
#

*nerfammobox

leaden herald
#

actually no I change my opinion pistols should be viable weapons

mild flower
leaden herald
#

sorry I was unclear

mild flower
#

yeah pistols are in a terrible spot right now.

#

pistols got nerfed, and 2 slots got buffed. everything adds up to make them way less viable

#

so I think pistol dumdum is fine, it adds a bit of utility to using one and doesn't put such an absurd amount of pressure and annoyance on the enemy as a higher damage dumdum.

leaden herald

I think I agree

Had some discussions with another dude (claimed high 6* on US Servers) a few weeks ago and the way he talked about the game, playstyle and movement it sounds veeeeeery.... nooby tbh

So I watched several US Streamers over many days and... let´s say... hearing, aiming and movement weren´t their strong sides (their enemies the same)
Yeah I give it to them, that on the US Servers they playstyle seems to be much more "impactful" and close range than EU Server

But tbh - nearly every stream and video I saw where I watched 6* US Streamers felt like I was watching 3-4* EU players (max!)

And I asked fpr Neenoh cuz I just saw a few shorts from him... dat aim and movement was just.... awfull... and thinkg that such players reach 6*

Dats just shows me a Region Diff

Just being honest

Looks like huge skillgap

EU is not always better than anything

Look at LoL
A Grandmaster EU Player will prob just be Dia or Master on Korean Servers
Over there the average Skilllevel is just even higher

#

Just wanted to clarify it for myself when I see a 5-6* US player here again trashtalking a 3 or 4* EU Player
Sry but in a 1o1 I bet on the EU player 😄

I'd love MMR to be completely removed, have been hoping for this for years... :) would be better than adding crossplay with consoles to "reduce queue times". Once upon a time FPS games didn't have any MMRs and nobody complained about it, people were just having fun ¯_(ツ)_/¯

# mild flower one for newbies/notthebest, one for not

I would say 4

  1. Newbies
  2. Low Elo
  3. Mid Elo
  4. High Elo

Newbies are on their own until they reach into Low Elo
BUT I would say High Elo Solo players can get into matches with Low and Mid Elo trios

It would feel like u decrease the 6 MMR´s to 3 and get them closer together
U would have more dynamic rounds and faster Q times (if u r not a High Elo Trio)

# scenic plinth in fairness, hes said that he used to try and win every game taking meta loadout...

Loadout doesnt matter when u move and aim like... "insert bad word here"
I dont wanna blame him - he isnt the only one where I saw this
But nearly everything I saw at the high elo US Streamers, beside cqc and shotties... was kinda.. bad tbh
Like... how can u miss 2 shots on a not moving target with a silent nagant pistol at about 18m?
when I saw dat I just had to start laughing

And in the last clip I saw, the enemies (came from behind) missed him 4 times INSIDE a building at close range... dude... dats EU 2* or lower perfomance

I keep getting random ping spikes, rubberbanding, sudden disconnects etc the last few days to the point it becomes unplayable. is this bug reporting or troubleshooting?

it’s funny that we’re in fact going full circle with this if we were to implement players "ideas", because they’re already done in the past

the thing is, the current MMR allows new players to not get shredded and this helps crytek capturing new players

also who cares about a 5+ KDA with 1000 bounty? 😛

what do you mean by "holding back"?

lofty parrot
left orbit

because they deranked on purpose

but… to have tried it…

#

it takes DAAAAAYYYYYYYSSSSS

and only 1-2h to get back up

i mean

#

if said 3* were better than… an actual 3*

#

because yeah people are still in 3* even after years playing

#

i don’t see the issue

lofty parrot
# left orbit what do you mean by "holding back"?

Didnt wanna open this again
but ok

Seems like killing 2-3 higher Elo players effects u less than dying once to a lower elo player
Means its much harder to climb even with very good kda if u sometimes just die to a lower players (like with a random hs or a OHKO shotty)

eh

that’s really not what i experienced, and people who also tried to derank had a similar experience as mine

it’s not a smurf

lofty parrot
left orbit
#

i mean it has been a smurf in its 2 first hours but then they keep the 2* on purpose

lofty parrot
#

I more belive they just dont uprank and die on purpose to worse players (much likely even lower mmr) to lose more MMR than they get formt he kills
Just to held them down

so like 5 games just dying 2 times with necro and 1 game seal clubbing

#

"What Is a Gaming Smurf? A "smurf" describes a player in an online game, often highly skilled, that creates another account to play against lower-ranked players. The smurf pretends to be new, then dominates their opponents since they're so much better at the game."

ain’t a new account anymore

#

so you can’t rely on just being new

#

you have to cheat the system by deranking

#

but okay let’s stop there i don’t think we’ll get more out of this anyways

I'm relatively new to the game (30 hours, mostly bug fixes or crashing, but I've crawled through it to 3*)

#

mainly for burning hunters, but if there's any ups or downs to either I'm more than happy to learn of them

mild flower
frigid ibex
random nimbus
#

Flaregun is usable to burn more stuff than just hunters too

#

Because it's ranged

#

And doesn't last for 5 minutes
