2x2 are more htan fine wdym
They are good
Yeah like reverse the buffs and everything is fine 😄
i'd say auto-4 obrez drum is pretty gnarly
2x2 loadouts are a meme.
I'd rather have a healthy 3x2 ecosystem than trying to enable 2x2.
But I still think 3x1 and obviously 3x2 is better
obrez is better than half the fucking roster xD
Yea it is
It's mostly those 2 that are outliers
saying 2x2 is a meme is wild, they are not as strong compared to 3x2 but you can get damn near the same effectiveness nowadays with 2x2 loadouts
dont forget dolchp 
Honestly I haven't seen a dolch p in a minute surprisingly
romero hc, oberz drum, bow, blauncher, cenny shorty is great again, dolch p, a4, drilling shorty
haymaker is fine enough now, uppercut p is still easy mode
i started playing dolch less altogether when 3 taps started happening way more often
qm jsut allows you get a smidge more effectiveness out of a certain class, but 2x2s are not a meme
Still gonna be strictly worse than 3x2.
And I'd rather have 2x2 being worse if it doesn't mean that 3x2 is this fucking oppressive.
But then again what do I know, I got my suggestion to make 2x2 playable and also retaining 3x2 down voted to oblivion back a year ago lol
I’ve just been looking for some perks I’ll use later is death cheat a good perk
(sarcasm) no because it means you expect to die 
Oh
I was never a big fan of dolch tbh
Ohhh that makes sense yeah
Nice one
Dolch has no steez
death cheat does nothing for you for the current game, it just lets you keep the hunter afterwards (while losing all equipment). It's also only obtainable randomly ingame so it's just a little bonus you sometimes find, not something you can really choose, outside of deciding to spend pledge marks on it every now and again (if you can find a trait spur to buy it, even)
Oh okay do thats a big no
but really yes, its one of the most sought after traits since it lets you keep your hunter after you die. you can only loot it within a match though.
sure yea worse
but saying meme worthy is nuts
come on now
I prefer most pistols with fenning over dolch
Or even bornheim silencer
no one ever passes up a death cheat
^if it doesnt bug out on ya
i... forgot about that... 
i've passed it up before when i have zero marks and it costs three and i didn't wanna go run around to unexplored areas looking for shit to farm points
but other than that obviously you take it when given the opportunity
It is a meme in the sense that the only reason to run it is that you wanna run it.
There is literally no real upside of running it over 3x2.
But I am also arguing from the standpoint that 2-slot shotguns should not be this strong as they are rn and should be nerfed.
Romero HC losing 2% damage from its 3-slot counter part is wild.
i cant remember, does the bug happen if you use necro or is it if necro is used on you?
It's been months since I bought Fanning myself, and that was more for the Catalyst bonus from the previous event (allowing Haymaker and Precision-variant (aka 2-slots) pistols to also be fanned)
there is a reason to save trait slot space. i run non qm quite often nowadays and its still damn effective OF COURSE not as effective as 3x2 but im saving a treasured slot for pretty dam nclose effectiveness
and i agree, 2 slot shotguns are a bit overtuned atm
What’s the best perk setup for a level 1 character
quite literally only have 2 personal uses for qm; avto+drum or upgrading dolch to dolchp
The dmg is not the problem most of the times
Its the spread and the OHKO Range
Should be reduced to 8m instead of 12
For sure, but damage does impact how much the kill range goes out too :)
actually i did kinda like running upperp with shotgun... thats kinda fun
Killed everyone near the bounty building in one of my rounds and outta the 7 bodies (this is duos btw) 5 of them had short shotguns
Which is uh
i love hte upperp
Something
i love it way more than the lefat
Not rly
2 diff parameters. in the patch i posted they increased the range (also for OHKO) without touching the dmg
i hate the lemat family in general so im biased
where does that 2% damage figure come from? what metric are you comparing, the listed stat?
they tightened the spread
lemat never works for me either... i dont get it :v
they can touch the damage and spread a bit to make it more in line
which should be done
I see someone with an auto 5 or 4 in 50% of my matches...
i'd prefer wallbang changes to be reverted before looking at short shotties tbh
Most of the ones I seen were the spectre shorty
I don't thing I've seen anyone use the auto yet
None of the variety
Yep
Dats the problem
Should be wider so the dmg spread more and is more unlikely to ohko
So widen the spread and reduce the range
Ez fix
Ran some numbers some time ago :)
But damage did get buffed for the 2-slots
okay... is that the damage they deal at ten meters?
Yes as that is the only stat given in-game :)
And here is some 1-tap ranges that got tested way back when 2.0 dropped :)
cause the total damage actually got reduced on the two-slot shotties with 2.0, they were standardized with the full-sized shotties. it used to be the case that a legshot would be lethal with a handcannon or a lemat, but after 2.0, it was matched with the full sized shotguns at 135
they shouldnt touch specter shorty and rival hc too much though imo, those were practically throwing before the buffs
Its up to 12m
Just after 12m the dmg cann fall off by shotties
before? and after as well
they are awful lmao
:v
I still think that basically all 2-slots should get hit with a 1-3m OHK nerf depending on the shotgun ofc.
i not gonna disagree with you :p
specter hc is dog xD and rival hc is one of hte worst shotguns in the game
god how that thing has fallen
Specter compact is great lol
specter shorty slugs has failed me too often
Per chance you got the 1 tal range got dragon breath shells for Romero 77?
always run buck on that damn thing
Or did i take bait?
Naw, bc DB is a meme lmao
Not enough
🥲 but it works so good
which is where the majority of 2 slot shotties should be
you dont play DB to one tap. you play DB to take bars away from people, then you die, and then they die to whatever they fight
Eh that, dunno, Romero going from 13m too 10m seems fine.
Auto4 going from 11.5m to 8m seems fine too.
Like having the HC have a reach around 8-10m.
Except now they just use Restoration shots lol
if only they gave 2 bars back
I run big bars up front
I see the reasoning in this but counter the Romero can carry 2 shell types so hypothetically set ablaze and finish em off
That takes a long time
You will be killed before you can do that by most people
2 weeks ago I had the weekly quest to do 750dmg with spectre (I never play shotty of I dont have to)
After the first Match I was 18 dmg short ...
Stupid op
Didnt even aim right, just to inside of bossbuilding and let enemies come close
Just aimed at the chokepoints where they have to go through and tadaaaaa ez kills
typically, if you have a shotgun that isnt auto, you want to 1 tap. the main usage of DB as a second ammo in romero is just to burn bodies dead on the ground so you dont need a flaregun.
Or they'll just escape to bandage
I mean it works just fine for me then again i am only 2*
All 8m
And the 3Slot max. 10m
I mean that does make sense yeah
or just shoot them in the face and remove htem from the fight
why DB is a memeworthy ammo
most of the time you couldve just
shot the guy with a bullet
I mean yeah but causing the panic of burning is nice
Eeeeeh, dunno if it needs to be hit that hard.
Don't think 3-slot shotguns are an issue
i just won 2 games in a row solo im so goated
holy shotgun hater
Berthier is awesome
they arent that op lmao
nah let him cook
i used to think the berthier blew but its awesomesauce
Ramsay would have words
The food is still mooing
It'd be one thing if you could poke people at like 20m with DB to burn them outside of buckshot one tap range, but DB is like 170ms velocity. You can literally sidewalk it
this game has no op guns tbh
let's hit shotguns with a ~65% dmg nerf so they can't oneshot at all 🔥
it used to suck bc it had misaligned iron sights and a shitty rof, but they gave it more damage/better velo/more ammo/ and reduced the price and its a beast now
why does every new player hate the bow
yanno what
i havent played for 2 years
nvm
Probably rats
dude i have this game for 5 years now fym new
i hate the bow too that shit can oneshot feet man
they often tend to just walk around corners and become the easiest shots
im sorry to say but you havent been here long enough to come to a proper conclusion
ive been playing this game for 5 years????
Its amazing aint it
Then you know the mosin meta
long ammo meta*
mosin aint even top top tier anymore
its not op because it costs a lot
berthier is fucking up there man
Price is irrelevant to balance.
money is easy to make
The dolch isnt even that insane tbh
well no, but yes kinda
i dont like the dolch its boring to use

Money gatekeeps, not balances
if they added mosin 2.0 that was just mosin except it deals twice as much damage, but it cost 10k, do u think thats balanced or no
i like pax trueshot the most
i love how no one mentions avto being op anymore, its great
yes
Trueshot my beloved
its not op you cant hit shit further than shotgun range
the 2 tap spammer, 10 round stripper clip, good stats, quick reload, 20 rounds, and easy recoil isnt busted
hm
okay mid range not shotgun range
ok
i respect the honesty. also lol
you are forbid from any more takes
Romero talon funny
idk i havent played this game for a long time im just having really good fun with this bounty clash thing
oh yea, thats just the 1 slot btw
avto is actually not that strong in shotgun range since... well... shotguns exist :v
the 2 slot is another demon
in fact a slot outpaces and does better than most 3 slots in the game
Love the Crown and king the slate sucks
avto is strong just outside of shotgun range +15ish meters
avto sweet spot is like 15-30m
Specter lowk better than slate i hate the slate so much
please us east i beg you
any more and you arent really beating r ifles, any less and you risk ohk against shotguns
yea thats what i meant :v
bc it is
is literally a better slate
the rof is the exact same (.1ms difference boohoo) and with tighter spread
slate is good, just not as good as the opposition
bc the slate was added MUCH before the specter got a face lift
i liked the specter back then more too i have NEVER liked slate idk
and it went from patrick to damn Chris Pratt
slate only looks cooler
Slate god king shotty
Slate and specter were alwasy a wierd discussion
either you hated one and like the other
no inbetween
Why did they change the crown and kings name btw
why are there so many weird name changes
who knows
the shop looks weird
i just looked up "Chris Prattrick starfish" and sadly didnt get what i wanted, my day is ruined
i liked the old names i think they were cooler
why did they make it just LeMat then if it isnt like the normal lemat mk2 made sense
Yeah but it sounds really cool
Winfields also sounded cooler than whatever this is
25 bullets Obrez Drum 
Some of the name changes were good, some of them were bad. I stand by dividing the winfields and caldwells up into their own names
that one might be to make it less confusing for new players
Short King*
w/o the 25 its fine tho
also is haymaker a new gun ive never seen that thing before
okay but obrez drum never should have gotten 10 extra bullets in the first place imo
when it was 15 it was absolutely just a fine weapon
no such thing
1865 carbine blows only the centennial and vetterli are fun to use from medium ammo
it was the Uppermat, now its the Haymaker
or to me
LeFat
B-but guys, it got a downside, it have... 3 more in vertical recoil 👊😔
Lemuppercut
LeShitter
Drilling*
bc i hate it
i dont think i played when they added that
its within the last 2 years for sure
i think
after nearly 9 years the guns start to meld together tbh
Havent had the chance to use it yet
i will forever want trueshot deadeye, not precision deadeye, i want it to be like dolch deadeye; 1 slot deadeye
please no more deadeyes
would be chef's kiss
I didn't redeem in time 
i havent killed a spider in 5 games
i dont like scopes in this game i just like using ironsights
and ive won 5 games
scopes are boring
Then don't get the codes
oh well
Rip
and then i can run berthier hammer both with new skins 
what about trueshot marksman
lul
STOLEN VALOR
as a single slot? hmm... maybe after deadeye
speaking of it
Nice hammer
Hammer da goat
What should my first skin be that I buy im thinking of scales
Hammer
whoever you want
The redneck is meta rn
Either the redneck or the reverend fr
redneck is meta rn
I though it mattered cuz of like the camouflage and being seen harder that’s why I wanted to get scales😭
loser mindset
who cares
just get who looks cool xD
Hell yeah
Okay thank you
i own every DLC and nearly all BB hunters, i have to cope myself into it somehow
god bless cs cases and skins
ive made easily 1k off of them alone
I love this fandom tho really nice people thanks for all the help you all gave me through my gameplay
what is going on with the servers
mannn, latency moment :/ and also a teammate who doesnt bring resil is always an oof moment
Is the game harder on pc?
harder with an *
its a different game
people have better average aim and better movement, but so can you
Wish there were more ps5 giveaways
its a higher skill ceiling
MUCH higher
and the games been out on pc longer, so a more dedicated community
guess where
I want an FOV slider on PlayStation
its been out for almost 9 years on PC
bro i had a crouch moment like that exactly and glide said that dying there made sense :(
South part of Darrow Livestock.
Is my best guess
But honestly not sure
No wait
darrow is correct, i have a clip of what just happened but my drive is probably corrupted, it looks weird
Damn I'm good
@dense sleet you in premade?
reminds me of the old meathead bug
if you landed on them, you could be launched into the sky
lmfao
in the moment yea
damn, lemme know if a spot opens. i havent played in a bit but want to :v
the event in gw2 ended so now im free again
aight, im with a buddy atm who's new new so
i dont mind
just duo-ing
and im frustrated bc even against 3 stars im not hitting shots
fuck the 1896
oh, we could trio then maybe if he is fine with it too?
tbf 3*s move differently from 6*s so they can be hard to predict
i could ask her
oh i forgor girls play games too mb
lmaoo
i just won the 3rd game in a row im a fucking GOAT
you had a statistical high chance you were right lmao
she said shes down, just keep mind she is Really new and it shows
so upto you
man ive been brain off doing the same loop run in an mmo for the past like 3 weeks... ill be fine :v
GOAT SKIN
yo I'm going to cut in on the console vs pc hard arguement and it's all relative to the populus
demographically
pc will always be harder
I was surprised to see cross play in the survey
Low-key am here for it just so I can play with some of my friends who don't have a PC lol
yup
I'd like well done, well thought out crossplay, then I could play with my son again
🔥
fair enough
Man I lost my 6* cuz I lost like 4 matches in a roooow
I mean I'm great fighting 6* I just have horrible luck
You're probably gonna end up staying in 6* if I join you
I finally got down to 5 star again for a few hours
Back to 6 star not long after though 
Last match details
.press g in the lobby after a hunt
thanks
i feel like there should be another rank inbetween (or another complete mmr rework) cause where i sit on the chart is medium to high 6*, but whenever i play solo 6 star lobbies, i get trampled but when i play 5 star i dominate
although a rework is a lot i feel the higher ranks are cooked
probably not neccesary i am just complaining or something
It would be nice but then 7 star players would be waiting for ages to find lobbies to play
6 star is the widest skill range but is one of the lowest populated ranks so it's a tricky situation
i either am the one getting 100+ meter mosin spitzer headshotted or am doing the 100+ meter mosin spitzer headshotting
i was very satisfied being 5* in 1.0/pre 2.0
i had a very good balance between winning and losing, and now all i am experiencing recently is just losing
It happens. Feel like we all have those losing streak sessions
Where you just can't win no matter what loadout you bring
Even when you're able to get some team wipes, still lose to the last team 
Oh the frick
i could probably stop being miserable but i am trying to presige at the same time
My 33rd prestige went so badly that I still haven't prestiged and that's been since the beginning of the judgement event lmao
Just been enjoying having everything unlocked and running anything I want
i just want to get to 50 and be done for awhile. i should have caugh along with my buddies when we were all playing but i fell behind and theyre like p75+ and im at 46
Most of my friends don't prestige
theres no point
im was doing it because i wanted the imo only good mosin skin, but now we have the red and black one so im less inclined
yo is there an lfg chat

i just wonder noone want the new Berthier 1892 Riposte skin ?
2 reasons
mosin mains only use hte mosin
and that team has 90% of the newly released skins
Gigabit. It's Discord's CDN messing up.
i do believe one is some players want the skin to stay exclsive for Berthier 1892 Riposte which is the moonflower right
which i have it
at this point i don't care about skin in hunt anymore cuz they lost the reason to make skin exclusive
I want it
lol
yeah i understand that but like i said
so i am just going with the flow
part of me wants the skin too
PC question- Does everyone run shotguns, or am I just unlucky?
I don't wanna sound rude but I don't care about either skins personally
it's nice that they'll be free though
I'm sure many players will apreciate that
it was only nice that we could finally get a non-event riposte skin
we stanced up
Wait the mosin skin lost????
last i check it was like, 30k ahead
Silly ass community
blame them for adding basically all of hte newly released skins and a bp skin onto the same team
I dunno. Kinda feels like PC likes to use Shotguns way more the console. I thought it was the opposite.
not even close to this cool
it is absolutely the opposite
long ammo rules pc
I missed a hit with that Railroad Hammer yesterday. 
Wait so if mosin is going to win the mosin vs berthier event, then what tf is up with bileweaver event offering the berthier skin anyways at stage 2?
Becasue they knew giving people choice, the Mosin would win the Death Rites event
That's so goofy lmao
is there a new hunt anticheat coming out next year? I heard someone say it but I didn't see it
fuck I'm so stupid
No you're not
Maybe you're looking for this
#general-announcements message
5 bodies downed in this corridor at Lumber, all crouch walking
regardless, you tend to have a full length LONG AMMO with a 2 slot SHOTGUN
the full length being the long
and otherwise if you arent qm, you are pairing the shot gun with a LONG AMMO
or pax TS
just go with an obrez
still long ammo
its the only way
A few minutes later
That’s for my silly meme loadouts
Like when I run axe
That way I can use only the obrez

Obrez? "Silly meme"?
Exactly, it has an axe in it so it’s a silly meme loadout 
Nah man you could bring an obrez and no other weapon and I wouldn't call it a meme lol
(I am kidding, but I’ve seen people use that logic before)
Oh for sure haha
Obrez drum with 25 bullets is all you need
Medium slot bolt action long ammo having more total ammo than a Martini Henry is insane
For my next trick ill make another armored appear and set them both on fire with one bullet
That is becauses you missed the first armored.
Bullets ignites AI if they fly by them close enough.
bro i just had a guy who i tagged with a crossy for 132, i shot him with the uppercut mid chest for 123 and he slugged me at the same time i 2-tapped him, but bc of latency his rampage proc'd for some fuckingreason and we didnt trade, and we lost bc of it smile
ugh
server tickrate moment
no it was a magic trick dont spoil how its done 😡
Or an exploiter.
All I can say in that regard
exploiter in what regard? ping?
So i have a question doesnt matter cause i ended up winning there but where tf went my shot at
Its funny how a compact with HV doesnt get him but a quad does
sometimes i dont understand this game
Not ping again, it is known issue that Crytek is aware of and I will leave it at that :)
i saw dm
i dont think its that
one frame after
bc i did that amount of dmg regardless lol
You're an old 6 star, shouldn't you know? 
My most pessimistic take is that you hit the box in front due to wonky hitboxes.
unf the frame afterwards doesnt help much bc of HV muzzle flash increase lol
Its wood, should have wallbanged it either way
Ik that is why the clip is slowed af
Well, you know how dem hitboxes works lol
Yes, sometimes this stuff happens
regardless
Or not works
but either he hard strafed to his right before the headshot and teh muzzle flash hides that, or you somehow missed
Im telling you, with a 120? muzzle derringer he got popped
With 520 mv? no way
at 12-14m?
Its instant
unf even so according to game tick rate it might say otherwise
ugh
that seems about 20 to be honest
Yeah I throw it it loseely, near 17-20m
still, 520 it instant pretty much
hell, even 360 xd
this did indeed register
(thank god)
Wonder what the tick rate is in hunt nowadays
but thank god hte hitboxes work like that
Idk, no hitmaker at all
No bodyshot, no headshot
i remember that console was like 40, it was AWFUL for years
(he was tagged once so he would have just been clicked there)
in terms of today i have no idea, havent kept up to date on it
Idk but doesnt feel great tbh
yeah, feel like 64 is minimum for a game like Hunt.
for console?
absolutely
i remmeber pc was 90ish but again, years ago when i cared to pay attention to it
2018ish
This is chart from 4 years ago made by an user.
I refuse to believe it have ever been that high lol.
for pc i mean
but yea
most likely not
i rmemeber the 2 second delay when shooting someone
Yeah, pretty sure it have never been 90 for PC either.
Most games don't go above 60
🥀
Doesn't hunt do a variable tick rate?
amogus
so uhm, the roadmap.. is there.. anything on it that is actually new?
changes and possible mixing of consumable and tool slots to limit the shot and ammo box meta
Hunt really doesn't like my overclocked GPU 
something to influence your loadout choice, maybe new targeted missions or discounts or some shit
GPU?
Seems like it hard freezes my PC with vram overclocked 
some kind of flamethrower or some shit, theyre professing a weapon that uses primal power or some shit
if you are having stability problems with an overclock it's not really the games fault
Yeah but it seems to only happen on hunt, from all the games I play
so hunt is stressing your hardware in ways the other games don't. still an OC stability issue init
Hunt is more CPU bottlenecked than GPU
Ill tweak it and have a profile just for hunt 
Hunt is bottlenecked by CPU yeah, because each and every crow - and this is 100% true, I heard it from Crytek - each and every crow has a complicated "opinion on things" system where they are constantly using your computer to access the wayback machine for newsgroup posts about the 1998 olympics
and they are opinionated
i mean, if you get into someones computer, why wouldnt you do funny random shit if you already have their bank details
Right
id probably leave fake notes like "remember to walk the dog"
Customization "
More players in matches
Oh yup, that will be interesting
🫠
Supposed fairer matchmaking , and anti cheat improvements 
More players per match will either be decent or miserable
I'm just hoping it's not 24 or something stupid
Fr, Itll just be bounty clash 2.0
Jeez, that's like 3 spawn fights minimum
Went against an xbox team on clash with 11 beetles. Srsly, why
Wish they removed beetles entirely for this reason, or restricted to 1 per hunter
Just don't see how it is possible to create more fair matches while also putting more players into matches.
Unless we get like 50k concurrent players.
I HATE how they fixed light attacks for throwing knives but heavy attacks are still this
i like the idea of more players in rounds
but it's not really going to help low pop regions like oce heaps I guess, outside of peak player count times
Dunno, duos got kinda ruined for me when we went from 5 to 6 teams.
But I will be fair and balanced and say that trios can survive going from 4 to 5 teams.
even in peak player count times i don't get full matches
I mean.. I do. or.. had been while I was still playing this event
yeah but most likely they're bringing the players up to 18
because it's divisible by 2 and 3
xddddddddd
Cant get a single match of 12 players without rubberbanding
and they want to add more
how about proper servers... and more of them
That is to expect that they wanna put more players in BOTH duo and trio lobbies.
anyway i don't really consider fiddling with total players in a lobby "new content" really.. it's more "things they should be experimenting with over time regardless"
No offense, but this is an skill issue
Run vigilant and once you hear them / see them
click them
I understand you are on console and it could be hard(er), remember than the ringer or any shotgun (or anything based on pellets) will do the job if you are lazy
Only real question I have is... *why did they come to the conclusion we needed more players in a match? *
im hoping they remove duos ngl.
Why?
experimental game modes. aka bringing back test servers.
it doesn't have enough players to be a healthy gamemode and all it does is leech potential players away from trios.
now that you can fill teams, it doesnt really need to exist.
we believe every victory ought to be earned by skill and outthinking your opponent—nothing else.
Happy to see that Crytek is removing crutch spam 😌✨
And now that hunt has progressively moved onto the trios scenario with QoL
they definetely aint xd
highly doubt they're gonna do that. duos was the original game mode
Not everyone runs shotguns, and its just a lot of noise when youre already dealing with multiple teams in clash
so? They clearly aren't afraid to strip away artifacts of "original" hunt.
Think that is a server thing, it is fine on EU.
good for you ig
Not to say the deadfall timber map is also a 'great' map for clash
Also I want my solos to be containted into duos
Whatever, use vigilant
why should they only care about eu @whole furnace
1 point perk
it's the region with the bulk of total players.. which they're in
Depends really, on EU sometimes its hard or takes time to fill in matches
sure, but a large portion of players are still outside of eu.
And they dont care about EU... if they did we would have multiple servers
instead of only one
I am not saying that, just pointing out that duos have enough players here to be a healthy game mode
whatt does "multiple servers" actually mean in that context
because i garauntee you it is not a single box sitting in a room somewhere in the EU
You know that is not what im refering to
why answer to yourself

you mean multiple regions for EU then
Im asking for an EU west located server, which is missing and present in basically any "big" game nowdays
I'm happy for you, then. But it's still not a healthy gamemode overall, at least from my experience in OCE and Asia. It doesn't really need to exist now that:
A: Duos can just queue trios and play at the numbers disadvantage if they want
B: If they really want to be even with the other teams, they can just fill their team with a random
Duo is the core gamemode of Hunt and yes, I agree it ain't as fun as it used to be bc they expanded teams from 5 to 6, making really campy
5 teams Duos was a great mode.
duo used to be the core gamemode of hunt.
I feel the core has moved to trios at this point
^
they clearly made that decision when they removed the rule of 2.
Fair enough, but dunno man, don't think duos gonna appreciate being forced into trios.
It is tougher fighting trios as duos vs fighting trios as a solo.
There's like zero mmr distinction for duos v trios
I mean lol we are yet to see duos guys complaining
population for duos is basically non-existant
As a duo going into trios, we get the giga sweats just like if we were a trio
Duos vs trios that is another thing
I play duos with my friend against trios, and it's not that bad for us.
Not to mention, if duos and trios were combined, duos would encounter way more other duos in the gamemode, meaning that they would much less commonly have to deal with uneven fights and when they would it would be special.
but duos gamemode is pretty much dead
A huge reason people play trios (which is, despite all, more tryhardy and sweaty, at least for me) is because they want to avoid all of the camping and ambushing there is on duos
God I would hate that, one the best features of trios is the much more consistent lack of getting 3rd and 4th partied.
So you dont get 3rd partied as often and you can easily track premades
if you have somewhat good gamesense you know where everyone (as a team) is potentially
with duos... well, that just doesnt happen
yeah that also makes me worried about increasing number of hunters
Some duos sit on a greyed out compound for 30 mins, other rush, other sit still at the lair
Trios can also do that ofc, but at least you know that you aint getting bumfucked by 3 other teams
It will also happen if you force duos into trios per default.
One if my biggest annoyances even in trios is actually solo players
They are only visible in certain brackets, once you reach 6* they are gone
Because now I know there's probably more
But i can understand the frustration, a solo means 99% times scummy gameplay and the absence of a team
which eliminates much of the pvp aspect
True, but every so often you see them
Only saving grace of playing mid 6 star, is that I almost never see solos lol
I don't think a merged gamemode would become ratty and problematic in the same way as duos because trios would know they have the advantage and most likely make the first move, as they naturally do against duos in trios anyway.
I care less about ball park lobbies then where say solos are at right now
Yeah, at 5.5 its hard af, at 6 is negible like you wont see em unless you play at night when there is nobody to fill in
and ocasionally one 5.5 solo that is kda farming gets up in your lobby
nothing more
but ofc i can see how problematic this is for any other bracket
unfun it is the word
totally
Another downside of duos vs trios is that when we que up as a duo, the likelihood of other duos or a solo being present goes up
It's usually all trios
What makes duos ratty is the amount of enemy teams in the match.
More teams = more risk of getting 3rd, even 4th partied = more ratty/passive meta.
If you force duos into trios the average amount of teams in match will go up, enabling such situation.
And this is ofc made worse if we expand the player count per. match even more.
But sometimes you find that rat silent Maynard duo trying to farm and third party fights
Yes, I agree, but my point is that trios would still be in a match and they would push their natural numbers advantage because they are naturally more allowed to play risky. In duos, nobody really has that numbers advantage to instigate an engaging encounter.
That without mentioning the fact you can actually fall asleep when trying to search a duo match, lmao
Also oh god more teams mean we NEVER get that ammo box nerf :')
N0OO0
shut it down
xddd
no 2026
That is an out-of-match factor, not in-match one.
And personal experience I've rarely waited long for duo matches.
we have to pause time
But I will admit I most play trios,. .
I can fall asleep dude
looking at that bar loading
just swap to trios and done
Trios will also start playing more passively.
Number advantage means jack shit when you gonna get shot in the back of your head.
if i wanted people camping the first clue only to die Id play more often quickplay
whoever is in charge needs a sitdown or sum i dont know where they get this idea of adding more players to matches
as if that thing was ever requested???
How nice it is 1896
First a clown circus with post malone and auto4
it has been requested way more than you would think
that assuming you could launch the game or open the map
Like trios plays more freely bc they know the likelyhood of running into an enemy team is relativily low.
But as soon they anticipate enemies they become just as ratty.
The corner bounty with a back-door extract is the classic case of 4 trio teams sitting doing jack shit.
It have a couple of times, usually downvoted when suggested lol
15 players would be kinda neato, and leave it at 12 for duos
sure but consider that also means potentially 3 more solos per match.
Problematic for some people
i hardly ever have issues
Eyup, I will even be radical and say 10 for duos, 15 for trios, 5 teams both maps!
3 more seperate teams to get third partied by
the majority of players doesnt want to face higher MMR solos
for you it wouldnt change a thing
still better than duos
not for any of us, pretty much
and i either lfg or premade
basically trios
and this would be amazing
15 players would be dope, "ermagerd 3 more solos" ok deal with them then
you are a trio
that just means youll be able ot get more seconds of darksight lmao
Okay:
Trios: 5 teams, 15 players
Duos: 5 teams, 10 players.
Solo: 6 players
Or never see them because they are kda farming and you get an "empty lobby"
with no fight whatsoever, which is what you would boot the game for
i never see em, because in my elo they arent very plentiful
Yes, same dude
Im not talking about me
but the overall complains of the playerbase
Changes are done to catter them, the majority, not 6*
i cannot make a comment on lower elos, as i have 2 accounts both 6 star
I dont see solos either on trios
one is my main and the other is tool only
Hell, ive seen like 4 since 1896
and all the same, never even stepped into compound range, never did anything
i dont understand a real net negative to be honest
but then again, i must again, not see the issues
it's not even just about mmr, it's also about region. in oce and asia, 6s can be put against 4s easily
i only see this as a real positive if the tech allows it
in oce, 6 could be put against 3s or even 2s even easier
15 in trios and 12 in duos, i would love htis honestly
Shame dude if 85% of nature wasnt actively trying to kill me id like to go to Perth or some shi
i hate when one team is at one bounty and do nothing, while the other 3 fight it out on the other side of hte map
shit suckls
and extra team would also make server fights THAT MUCH MORE intense, which is something ive been missing from hunt
after nearly 9 years and over 5k hours, its losing it for me
i dont shake, i dont heavy breath anymore, i hardly stress about it
I think its pretty normal
i would love a way to get that back, i miss those days lol. and an extra team would make me feel less complacent
tbf i think a lot of that is from the meta consumables and the design philosophy changes
meta consumables?
regen and ammo box
they eliminate any intensity the game used to bring imho
it's not the case that every shot matters anymore
every shot is an offhanded whatever that means nothing within the next 20 seconds, and you have infinite ammo so it doesn't even matter in that way either
frags have always been insane, they basically removed the flash bomb, ammo box has always been an issue even worse with old reserve resupply, recov was a bandaid fix to a geniune issue in hunt and im kinda ok with how it was added, Regens are fine since they arent insanely fast w/o vigor. hell the timed shots in general are all pretty much in line now with each other
10 minutes of regen/stam was a bit much, and we have other ways now to offset the time nerf they got
and i was genuinely happy with how they handled the shots, bc htey should be strong but the fact htey have a nearly 100% pickrate? obviously something wasnt right
Good for the flash bomb
fuck the flash bomb
but yet
0 skill expression because it didnt work
yeah im specifically referring to regen and ammo box, #hunt-general message
oibviously it wasnt always used like that since it was an insta pop
it got rid of everyone
but the potential for it be an anti-camper tool, it couldve been saved
wallbang was an odd one for sure
it was a bug fix guys :)
i think a damage mitigation through one wall was fine, but not to the extent that it was adjusted
thatwas a bit much
Stupid af is my opinion
shouldnt have ever been a thing to begin with
And you are long ammo, imagine those with compacts
Even fmj has base reduction of 10%
on your already garbage compact
cmon like xd
you gotta be close (medium-close) range, which already gets you (in this elo) in big trouble to either get spammed to death with spam shotguns, avtoed, nitroed etc or simply left to one bar because "haha long ammo"
just to spam your compact that will deal 80 damage tru wallbang
and yes i responded to it for you
the paragraph i typed
with its specific ammo to wallbang
just terrible
Not to mention some weapons (already forgotten) lost their unique gimmick
Imo the issue with regen is that it's completely undetectable, so in order to play efficiently, you need to assume that your opponent always has it. That gets rid of even the possibility of variety of fighting without it being a factor.
Regen shot should have some kind of cue that tells you someone has it active, so you know whether you need to play around it or not. That way it becomes a more balanced and strategic mechanic.
i think regen is fine, ammo box is always something difficult to balance bc i cnat think of way to balance a free mosin clip lol
I never thought that springfield shorty would be in a worse spot than before
but it surprises me
now wallbanging i think you cant even tap a downed guy
like i said
a near 100% pickrate
i always assume someone has one on
Same
that's the problem.
and yes, thats an issue sure... but at least its only for 7m now
but w/o vigor its really not all that fast
and that takes a slot to give it its max effectiveness
and precisely because it's only 7m, there are fights where it's not even active, but you need to assume that it is.
that's clearly an issue
i dont think anything else really needs to be done to it
mainly bc i cant think of anything ot do it besides flash bomb it
and i dont want more of those
we already got enough worthless junk in our arsenal taking up space
Junk that can be fun if you leave the mosin and dolch at home tbh
I already made my proposal, give it a cue that shows someone has it active.
E.g. a heartbeat sound emenating from the person after they get hit for a second, so you can tell the hit will be regenerated. That way you can play around it accordingly.
i just played marathon/hammer for the last 7 hours
Yeah im not targetting YOU specifically
but the bracket
9/10 times they are just running meta
or "cheap" meta
dont blame hte bracket for not wanting them to be at a disadvantage purely based off thier loadout
i feel the same
i play long, bc otherwise i can instantly notice a difference
Being at an disadvantage and still winning is what makes you good
and if i dont have 125 and 580+ mv, i can already tell i have to try that much harder to be effective to my team
Not 2 shooting people at limbs with mosin at 50m
any chimp and their grandma can do that
overcoming odds and having a permanent handicap, very different
86m :3
having both makes you a much better player than meta goobers
i dont think its something that ever will change
nerfing long will only result in spam becoming more prominant than it already is
〽️
you can never appease everyone
Nerfing long would be a nice thing to do
Meta ammo since the game came out
If you are good enough, decent even at CQCing
there honestly is no good answer to the balanec of the game with the way the games health and damage system is laid out
just give it the downside it was always meant to have: ammo economy
unless it gets a complete top down rework, in all aspects, you really cant just change one thing
and nerf ammo box
oh i love that loadout, regular ammo or incendiary or fmj?
Id change hip accuracy for long rifles, as starters
HV
always on compact if able
gotta click them heads baby
oh forgot that existed, fair enough
Only the 1 shot rifles should have somewhat decent accuracy
On marathon you just run FMJ/HV
its preference
in terms of long ammo you mean?
No reason why a mosin can accurate hipfire behind a corner
or give them extra sway for the first few seconds of ads
or a lebel or whatever
Yeah not to mention many rifles didnt have sway as compacts back then
Long ammo is another of the big crutches,always has been
not a marathon
but close enough, also is this clip jittery to anyone else? i think my recording fucked up, which sucks i had a good night for hte most with the hammer and (insert odd rifle)
That was a thing when special ammos released and you had a winnie c HV which had less sway than normal winnies at least you could compete if you popped heads and if you were at enough "close" distance for the headshots to kill
It does seem jittery but that may be discord
hmm, interesting
bro hammered deaf javier escuella
Oh no it is jittery
that sucks regardless
Yeaaahh
damn, all my clips are like that
Damnnn
The jittering is the cameraman unable to comprehend the wanton murder in front of him
fuck man this onme too
2m infront of a corridor door
im ready for avto now(vet challenge was easy for some reason)
i did like 400 that last game we played
i still needed 300
was at like 701 or smthn
now i can relax
also just noticed the skin for the vit shot is bugged to show like small
lul
That’s same as my load out consumable and tools
i dont usually use vit shot, just running it a little now because new skin
didnt even use the crown that game but got this .-.
Small picture from around 2 years ago, the old UI really was something special but clunky
What bolts do people like on big crossbow ?
Split steel/shot is the only way tbh, unless you have explosive bolts
so what do y'all think about the relative lack of new content even being mentioned in the roadmap. As an example - I would be really surprised to find out they are not currently working on a new map. Surely. Surely that is a thing currently being worked on? Not just Inferno coming back. But surely a new map is "roadmap mention" worthy?
it's kinda wild with their claim of "confidently forging a new frontier of content" or something, but I like the idea that they're still focused on getting the roots of the game healthy
I kinda assumed they didn't include all of 2026
like a new map, if coming in 2026 would be late 2026
no reason to put it there just for people to ask about it everyday for the next year
I guess I just feel like a roadmap is supposed to touch on the not-immediate-future by it's nature I suppose, unless you specifically convey an associated fairly specific timeframe
Wonder how this gonna get utterly broken lol
sounds like they're going to give bonuses for certain types of loadouts. I do wonder how they're going to do that.. well
my first randoms win since i took a break 3ish weeks ago was with a chinese guy and french canadian guy :v
died to a team of crouching avto users on rain map talk about jumpscare lmao
I think it is more a weighted system where certain tools/consumable gonna take more space than other.
"merging tool and consumable slots" could be a terrible idea for sure
you will suffer a 5% movement decrease.... but you may take 2 3-slot mosins without needing a trait...
Nice, then I can field 3 extra recovery shots! :D
the experimental firearm is what I'm scared of
if it's good it'll follow the dark satchel logic where it's something that actually fits into the lore and world but theres a 50% chance it's just some bullshit that's supposed to be a copy of a more modernized gun because games are scared to stay in their time period
Naw they listened to me and gonna add my high pressure chemical thrower for sure :DDD
I will always be scared after the saw launcher
bringing a medkit and a regen, they could bring 6 recov shots each
yay
because if you described it to me without saying it's hunt I would assume it was the ultimate move of some overwatch character
#game-ideas message
Belieeeeve!
i want smth steampunky tbh
it's supposed to be experimental so it'd fit like that
but they also added the huot, decided it was actually made by a single "mad" gunsmith and called it experimental too
give us full loadout looting off bodies imho
Whats confusing about that. I want access to their tools and consumables
not a random selection like i opened a yellow toolbox. exactly what they had on them when they died
It was just the wording
And I would prefer being free from inventory management like that
increased player expression badges is 100% like a gold badge for getting 100 kills with (x) weapon
I can't fcucking wait to grind out 1000 kills on the pax for my cool diamond badge for nobody to give a fuck about
yeah if thats what that is it is a total nothingburger
I'm not even saying that in a negative way though it sounds like it
I need to be working towards something to play a game and stay interested
and I'm about done prestiging
just feels whatever. if they had always been there i'd have the badges for most weapons I use frequently. shruggggg
Lmao, Crytek cannot even get the prestige badge to display proper lol
does it not
Nope
awesomesauce
they hide the prestige badge so much currently i'm not entirely convinced they havent forgotten it's even a thing
Prestige 95 is the same emblem as the prestige 100
I only noticed it this late
Dunno if there are other places where it is borked
whats the fucking point in life....................
Also pretige badge needs to be more visible yes
I just don't know what else it could be
I like the bloodline looking badge
so I can have a prestige badge next to my prestige badge
DUAL WIELDING TERMINUS SHORTY CONFIRMED?!?!?!?!!!
which you will also almost never see I imagine, unless this comes with yet another UI rejig
inb4 it's just charms
i assumed it would maybe be.. some kind of bonus to using certain loadouts? that come with some kind of downside maybe. but you're probably right
Speaking of expanding player expression:
Fucking let me randomize skins from a fav pool
oh yeah, that would be nice
also put traits in loadouts already, it can be a seperate box you can tick or untick
and let in-world lootable from toolboxes and whatnot have applied skins you own
I really just want a spot in the loadouts section for using the last loadout I used
I wanna keep running my schofield but I don't wanna make it's own loadout yaknow
i could settle for a "go again" button
I assume the new season model means a more mainstream battlepass system which I figured was only a matter of time
Also "buy available" options for loadouts.
Not reallly that relevant for me soon, but for other prestige players it will be a blessing.
i assumed they just mean what they do now, which is essentially zero vanilla downtime
What is current mainstream BPs?
like fortnite where one is just always active
but like joel said that's about what we have
so might aswell lock it in
finally every char has death cheat and shadow... its complete
Like we gonna buy a bigger and longer BP?
idk how money works
im hoping it means no more 4shot and event ammo crate
i highly doubt either of those are going away somehow
I have no issues with the pledges
I'm looking forward and fearing the day I'm p100, bc then I too gonna eat good in that regard
But fear it gonna kill the enjoyment of the game for me
I'd love a longer bp if they can make it longer for good reason and not just padding out ammo and stuff
so basically you get these things called "money" and you can use them to get literally anything you want, be it food, cars, zombies, anything
sounds like a good time to get the lore back.....
event ammo crate and 4shot kinda break the balancing of the game though
especially 4 shot
didn't see lore mentioned in the roadmap..
what is so game breaking about the 4 shot boon
but theres a 90% chance that's "billy story used to shoot people with a derringer... kill 5 people with a 4-shot derringer and get 500xp"
I mean that's the level of story tie-in i'd expect i guess
remember guys the goal is to ALWAYS enrich the narrative of hunt showdown
Yeah hunt is very limited with bp content, but I am sure the "player expression" badges (or whatever it gonna be) gonna be BP stuff too.
More filler
Cannot wait for the next inevitable shitfest of a crossover.
(I assume we getting another one bc money)
let me dress my own hunter with a high level of customisation via unlockable outfit peices and I am good for meaningful meta progression.
Then you cannot sell a gazillion legendary hunters tho
I feel like that has to happen at some point
it was originally gonna be a thing, and people have begged for it for years
sell legendary outfit peices then
just sell each cosmetic piece for 5 bucks
5 dolla virtual stetson
no you cannot color it
sure you can, you can choose light brown or dark brown
oh we can choose skin colours now too?
black requires quest unlock
Man cannot wait for people to min/max the shit out of such system
honestly I'm so lost what y'all's talking about
we're talking about a theoretical universe
where crytek comes up with meaningful meta-progression content for the game
everyone wears a black shirt with black pants, black boots, and a black mask
that we think might actually be interesting enough to put in the time for
watch me kitted out in pink from head to toe
