Mosin is a gunmaker known primarily for the Mosin M1896
u can make like anything work tho
someone who can land shots regardless of the gun he has
200 B.C
sure feels like it
according to american gun enthusiasts
why when i double tap it just drop a cat
in reality its 1880s

Wait, the obrez is its own unlock tree now?
Unless I’m insane which is entirely likely
Yes
they made a lot of guns that way
cause I have all the Mosin variants but none of the obrez variants
uppercut and officer
I've been prestige 11 for like 4 years so idk what the unlocks look like anymore
you mean haymaker?
Cause didn’t haymaker used to be the uppermat which was in the lemat tree
No it’s the haymaker
Obviously
Better name than UpperMat
Nah I loved uppermat
But I still refuse to use the real name
uppermat carbine when?
Uppermat was just a knock off uppercut name
No I think it was more that it was an UP calibered lemat
Why not call it the LongMat then since long ammo?
But nah, it was 100% an uppercut rip off
cuz LongMat sounds a bit like something else
Nah its knock off uppercut name
Dizz is right
If you look at the oldest uppermat mention its from a dev back in early access days wishing there was an uppercut version of lemat, like an uppermat
The uppercut wasn't named the UpperVersion of the Conversion
I agree when haymaker carbine
I'm against any carbine long ammo. They are generally spammy and long ammo shouldn't be combined with spam
At least haymaker is in line with the punch name
But it will always be the LongMat and PhatMat to me
Pax carbine pls🙏
Comically large lemat
We need a Mosin competitor anyways
Do we tho?
Have we finally given up on wanting the mosin nerfed?
I mean, the Berthier and mako definitely don’t compete with Mosin
Never
Gut it
Yeah that's cause mosin is just better. Making a new gun instead of nerfing mosin is pretty wild
New Marathon variant: Cross Country
Gut it so it can be a niche meme weapon I can use since the mosin is historically one of my favorite guns but since it’s meta I refuse to use it
Reverse psychology ;3
Nitro-Sparks
What's the problem? Mosin.
What do we do to solve this problem?
Ignore the mosin and add more guns
Exactly
🤔
This guy gets it

I mean just nerf Mosin damage to 124 like krag
Problem solved
new scarce marathon, triathelon
With built in slam fire
Mosin is a headshot gun I don't think that would solve the problem
thats A BROWNING

Mosin can gut shot a 125. It ain't just a headshot gun
I mean by that logic lebel would be better, higher velocity lol
so does about
Like 4 rifles can one tap lower torso.
Krag is 126.
50 more guns
Yeah sure but I don't think that's what makes it OP
I’m 90% sure it’s 124
It means it's not a headshot gun tho
It uses to be 124
When did that happen wtf
a long time ago
Was buffed ages ago to 126
many updates ago!
Along with a ton of extra ammo
It is. Why is spitzer so popular on it? Because it makes hitting the head easier.
Once again by that argument lebel is better lol
Sure it's not only good at headshots but it's really in the hands of people who pick it for headshots that it becomes problematic
yeah it really needed the buffs or else it would only be a long ammo gun with six shots that only needs iron eye
There are plenty of guns that can 1 shot a 125
Mosin, Martini, Sparks, Specter carbine, and Maynard are the only rifles, besides nitro of course
Again, to lower torso
Waiter, waiter, more long ammo guns
It's not. Lebel can do the exact same thing and yet the mosin is more frequently used. Spitzer is a separate issue
Mosin is the best all rounder long ammo gun
you realise thats like 40 variants sth lol
not 40
but a lot
Not enough
Bruh you know that counting variants isn't accurate.
i mean its a lot
Because it's needlessly inflating the number to portray a different reality
Lebel has a much slower reload. The ability to one shot a player with a missing bar to the lower torso instead of only to the upper torso is really not that big of an advantage
its not NEEDLESS when quantity is being accounted for
Just played the game, we're level 11 yet got killed by a guy with prestige 99 lvl 99 😭 🤣
It's 100% needless, because it's the same damn gun.
You don't count the 20 different Winnie variants unless there's a significant difference, like a vandal.
Like, it's good, but that difference is not what makes the mosin so powerful
disagree, if its quantity were talking we taking all into account
It's actually quite a huge advantage.
quality is different
Not really
Distinctions without differences.
Again, needless number inflation
if your counting DIFFERENT rifles
with a huge difference as you said
nitro should be in
Fine, 6 guns
I exclude the nitro because it's a very clear outlier in a lot of ways
springfield
no nitro isnt because nitros gimmick is one shots
That’s legit its whole stick and its in a seperate category
was mentioned?
Spring and Mosin both have 136 damage no?
Springfield is 132
Bleed ammo would probably let it gut shot
But that's a specific thing to mention
that makes sense ngl
so what, Mosin, martini, sparks, 1865 carbine
What am I missing here
Maynard
oh god how could I forget my baby
Nitro if you want to add it too
legit tho how could I forget Maynard
I think mosin needs a buff
Tbf, it's less likely to happen
it’s my only badge as well as all three of my stat tracks are related to the Maynard suppressor lmao
regular ammo should have spitzer velocity
Because Maynard tends to rat
Before they removed dumdum from it, it was a great shotgun
I know what you are
What is that hm?
I proudly display my maynard sniper kills as well
And here we see a wild Bush Rat in its natural habitat, it has the potential to spit a venomous dart from up to 500 meters without being heard.
same
nah, I have a bow as a backup so I tend to stick about 60-100 meters off
your existence torments me
I hope you have 0.75 KD
Lmao i love this
The most respectable stat
Best sniper rifle in hunt
Shredder ammo or balls
I went to sleep around 45 min ago and just woke up because a spider was crawling on my right eye lid
I guess I'm not sleeping tonight, time for more hunt
But what if the Boss is Spider?
I didnt catch the thing either cuz I freaked out and threw my blanket I cant sleep knowing its around my bed area still
you can perform a death roll in the blanket, crushing the critter in the process
i think you can upload anything
i have a roundabout way of doing it i dunno if its the right way
but i take a screenshot
in steam
then replace it with the one i want to upload
renaming it
yes
yep
Good Morning fellow Hunters. 
you guys think it would be better to have all small health chunks or all large health chunks
why would having a team matter
Dying = lose a bar
As a solo you only die generally once and self res from necro gives you all HP back anyways
But in a team you can be revived multiple times so you want to minimize health loss from getting downed and maximize the amount of times you can be revived before being out of bars
This guy plays Hunt 🙂
Even then I would just go all small bars
Because as soon as you get downed again you lose a big bar again
Is there a range to how far the hangman card works?
thx for hardcore info
servers have felt a bit laggier since murder circus came back, so swapped back to OCE to get better ping
and my god it's a completely different game
either steamroll or get steamrolled
no fair fights at all
i miss US-W but rubberbanding is so ass rn
range finders were invented in the 1700s there should be a range finder in the game
Just saw a poor fella names corpse eater get bloody blown up by head team mate by accidents I may have died but it was worth it
Telescope kinda
You can ping with it and it tells you how far that ping was
🗿 no I mean the tarot card
There is spyglass shows range on ping
That is literally its only use
Its so bad
someone just used a chariot to stop us at terminus, we had 1 and just waited, used and extracted
It doesnt have a range, is just the nearest enemy to you
Lowkey one of my favorite things in this game is when you get the jump on a player and you get to watch in real time as the gears turn in their head and they realize they’re about to get their head blown off
What else a **Spyglass **should do?
Understandable
I’m lucky to have a consistent teammate that cares about my res so I always go 3 big and bring a recovery. With the recent recovery shot change it’s better to have a big bar so a hint of fire doesn’t burn it off again
What about a strafe run
if you dont see nobody you alone on the map or a solo waiting to necro
Strafe run from flares xD
bonk
Logic
Bruh…
The bonkglass, baton spyglass. After X bonks you get the cracked effect on it and it can't be used to measure distance anymore

I need to get him to lvl 50 rookie but I keep getting to 40 and die.
We have a knife skin that is litterally a broken bottle XD
It would be insane if they did that lol
Embrace the RAT
?
Do a ratty playstyle, just hunt meatheads and XP posters and leave when you get to 40
Anything but engaging players and bounty?
Exactly
Welp. I usually get to bounty no doubt about it.
Acting like a BFG 9000 and wipe the whole map :))
😼
or we can put it on the ground
so when people vault a window and land on it.. they slip like it was a banana peel
😼
Banana consumable, restores 10 health, becomes a slip tool
Side effect: May attract feral monkeys

Wait why is post Malone on my dashboard
Pennyshot Caldwell Rival
Side effect 2: Makes you gassy. So your location will be exposed time to time.

If bananas make u gassy….
You're thinking of the beans consumable
Smell that Ethylene Gas
Omg its Trinity
That's a very special banana.
dang, look how dark that tree line is
“Come to me”
my peepo emojis are blocked for no reason
Oh it's not for no reason, we all know what you did
I wonder if the fireworks are gonna make a comeback this xmas
Am I the the only one that think fov could increase by at most 10-15’
Being so up close is starting to feel uncomfortable in certain situations
Hi, im looking at buying the game. Want to ask how is the state of the game, and should i but the dlc too simce its on discount
the game is nice, dlc are cosmetic
The game is in a good state. Its fairly balanced, 1 headshot is all you need.
It has a steep learning curve but you can have fun regardless of what happens.
Id wait to see what guns you like to use before buying dlcs unless you want to buy all of them
Well….
Oh, really, I thought there are hunter locked behind dlc haha
Skins are
Hunter skins* are locked behind dlc or BB (the premium currency)
The discount kinda make it 50buck for everything, thats why i was considering haha
You should buy the battlepass too. Its cheap and worth it for all that you get
But mby wait to see if you enjoy the game
I see
You dont lose progress if you dont buy it from the start
Since its only skin behind the dlc, the. I’ll just go for the base game first the
I went with the deluxe for 25$
Nice lil boost and you can get the battle pass.
deluxe? only see the starter edition
I just wish we got skins for every weapon. Infanty 73 still doesnt have a skin
Maybe it’s a PlayStation exclusive
just buy the base game with the delux edition or something
and if you like it buy other dlcs
wtf currency
bro buys IN REMINGTON
malaysian ringgit hahaha, 5usd = 1myr
is the cross region ?
aight, i'll try the base game and se eif it clicked
One time investment, and you'll be able to withdraw from any bank or store you want!
Real Money™
is the nitro actually a good weapon or is it just a quick way to burn thousands of hunt dollars
There isn’t one in the u.s as well. Idk
you gotta learn to be good with it
if you do its a beast
I’ve been getting hit by that gun with 1 shot.
It's alright but I wouldn't call it great
I mean thats like its whole gimmick
hahahaha watching your guys reaction to my currency does give me a bit of laugh
Very colorful money tho! I approve!
RM= RAINBOW MONEY
the dude on the bill has drip though
Hell yeah!
now ig just need to ifnd someone to play with HAHAHA
do the training, and first few matches you will face bots
oh, okayy
I got it like a week ago and its the only time in 2025 I actually had fun playing videogames
appreciate the opinion guys, just bought it on steam, installing it rn
It's the only multiplayer game with pvp that I truly enjoy, when Hunt gives you the good matches, nothing compares
there is a strong learning curve the 1st few matches
It’s fun. Just don’t give your hopes up when you die and lose a hunter. Make use of challenges and leveling up your hunter before 11 because after that. Your to the wolves…..
I think for your 1st few games playing with a team to learn fighting the bosses and stuff is a good idea
lose a hunter?
you lose your stuff when you die
If you don’t make it out. You lose your hunter and equipment you went in there with.
you can get new ones for free or 100 game dollars which is cheap
Welcome 
Yeah, you can always get that Hunter back. If you die you keep only the money you get from investigating clues, killing and banishing bosses
There's also free hunters with free gear
oohh
those suck though
generally
compared to what real gear looks like
but you CAN make do with it
bare minimoom
By any means. You don’t have to get the bounty. High risk maneuvers comes with the consequences.
i see
you know full im not one 
Also, if you're in a bad situation, you can simply leave. You don't have to take a fight you're unsure of, get to that extraction.
im a
sounds fun. And i like the PVPVE concept of an extraction shooter and this ogame look like it have gimmick and flavor to it rather than being a generic game
typa guy
hunters grow exponentially in power and performance after leveling and gearing up
however they dont become immortal to lower lvl hunters like tarkov
A headshot is a headshot in hunt, doesn't matter if you have a 30 dollar gun or a 600 dollar gun
that 600 dollar seems personal ngl lol
its 100% directed at a certain thing

Well, drillings, dolches, mosins fall somewhere in that category in total
yeh, but cheap guns have their own allure too
like the slownser carbine
or winny
My buddy usually shells out for high end gear, now tho he's using the Marathon and his successrate has gone up in Hunt 
someone said little marthon?!
here is his big brother
MEGATRON
jokes aside we need a punt gun
like in game singe use something
would be fking hillarious
we got avto already that wouldnt be new
Got what?
I'd rather see a Dolch Carbine schnellfeuer than a thompson, more period correct
Wth how do you get that?
there is quest line
you kill like 1k ai and 200 enemies with headshot
with a mosin
Ok
You haven't seen this thing?
just kidding you can buy it
The barrel literally looks like a silencer
No I actually haven’t
Kinda does
Not even the correct model smh
It's a 15 round full auto rifle, fires in three round burst minimum
The gun on cod but it’s a 3round.
what is it called
Mosin-Nagant Avtomat
What's going on with my mmr, I'm 3* and I'm only playing against 5*/6* ? It wasn't the case a few days ago.
“Not every platinum plaque to profit ain’t always promised.”
Not too many people on the game
fair enough
Should be enough though
Its 5 am here in the US so i couldn't find a match in the US servers so I tried european servers and the people seemed way better
they had the same mmr as the people I normally queue with but I was just way worse than them
3 games killed by explosive crossbow or fire ammo sniper in all 3
I see that sometimes on US servers but not 3/3
when I played PUBG years ago it was a thing to queue into asian servers because lots of them are playing in gaming cafes that have lots of background noise so they're usually worse at picking up audio queues I wonder if anyone does that in Hunt
It’s a nagant huot
Except it’s burst
Idk about that part
Same thing, but an enfield I believe
Huge ass water jacket, water cooled
Probably idk it was either way back then
Ross rifle not enfield
It could be done with the ross because it was a straight pull action
It’s like 5am I’m tired

True, I love SP bolt guns
I feel like it would be a more common thing, but I guess not
it doesnt beat the simple beauty of rotating bolt
nuhuh
They were never that popular because it's quite a bit of added complexity for comparatively few advantages
It does add complexity, when it’s not needed really
Plus I heard that mauser did some propaganda campaigns against straight pull rifles but idk how much truth there is to that
straight pull uses some sorta elevator mechanism
using redirected force
in the delicate and confine spaces inside a weapon this can lead to unwanted clunkiness
its a trade off for speed
Hey question
If a non friendly hunter were to bring in a contraband weapon to the hunt and then they died and someone looted that weapon off them
Would it just be like a regular weapon for them?
no
no it would be a contraband weapon
Ah
Sherma mention
Ive been playing like 3000 hours why am i being paired with absolute beginners
Anything you get in the games are turned to contraband when back at the lobby.
Ohhh
impossible to play they just follow and do nothing
might aswell just play without weapons
just don't play randoms
Embrace the solo
Be your own boss
I don’t play solo cuz I don’t like getting jumpscared
I hated the human bots that just followed and waited for commands and did absolutely nothing all game when i used to play duos
Skyrim companion ahh gamer
Then id just turn around and stare and see what they would do
And they just stood there staring back until i finally kept walking
playing solo is truly missing out on the main gameplay of hunt
instead i advise looking for 2 proper hunters that have similar mindsets
More expensive, required more technical knowhow and not as robust as a turning bolt
onlyhives dot com
solo is fun and so is trios
that and why make an already really simple mechanism more complex for no reason
speed
thats it
its faster
Schmidt Rubin 1889, 12 round straight pull long ammo rifle. Cuz why not?
K31 ngl
lets make a straight pull 15 rounder nitro and name it grug & venom 1896
Hell yeah! Drum nitro semi auto!
can we have teammate indicator that they're doing necro res?
for a second person to see it
What I want is teammates that actually revive me
Been something I’ve been noticing recently
They just leave
you get the "you are being revived" on your screen
dont do randoms
for other teammate to see it not for yourself
I threw dynamite to create smoke for cover and didn't know about revive so I exploded my teammate with it
there is a sound cue
but its mostly comms lol
so you have to tell em
My buddy decided once that the best course of action after being firebombed was to cook a dynamite and chuck down the corridor they threw it from
While I was also firebombed right next to 'im
"place for your free weapons"
YES.
Explosive ammo only so basically a bolter
Fmj on compact cant pen metal right ?
After the pen change dont know 🤔
The shooting range is free.
it can, but not much more than that, and only long fmj can pen steel beams depending on thickness. most commonly lamp posts
compact fmj can't pen bars
Long FMJ can pen nearly anything in the game yea.
it can, i donno if they count as BARS but the chicken coop metal rods
Is it now damn ?
there's a lot of materials there, the wire can be penned by non pen stuff, idk about all the other stuff on it.
ngl I'm not in a lot of postions where I hve to shoot through them
Chicken wire feels surprisingly inconsistent to try shooting through.
At least with Compact.
I mean you can shoot through it with dum dum and poison
last I knew, unless they stealth changed that
Chicken wire is one of the few things poison can shoot through
So what do you lads usually run on stuff like the ranger ?
levering
I run default lmao
I've had gunfights were it felt like it was just eating my bullets.
No no I mean ammo types
default is good, fmj is fun as well
fmj or default for the winnie
FMJ is great for when you have to fight someone behind a fence.
Unless I use the marksman or sniper winnies, then it's HV
miss the days of hv winnie
Which comes up quite a bit.
I used so much betterli HV back in the days
HV makes levering annoying for me
winnie hv get back in the dirt where you belong
I hope to god that change the negative scaling for compact
what was the change?
It's not like it'd make the damn ammo type too strong or anything 
it needed those things to be relavent, now it's a huge pain in the ass
HV used to be faster, had the same damage & ammo count back in the days. It was just a straight upgrade to regular ammo
hv used to be just like normal ammo, but special and faster, 1896 they slowed down the hv, nerfed the damage and reduced the ammo further. but increased bullet drop, like thats a fair trade
fmj fanning got shit on by both wallbang nerfs and recoil increase
one reason fanning went from a thing to something to no one talks about anymore because they kicked the best option for it in the nuts
I've seen an uptick since the Devil card introduction
conversion fmj fanning did not deserve how hard it got bitch slapped
I never really bother with ammo types
at all
Unless it’s needed
Depends a lot on the weapon tbh, and game mode
yes
I never really ran HV in the before times.
FMJ is a staple for me in my Clash warmups
hv used to be very meta for compact picks
Pesky thin plywood walls and doors
It basically was the only ammo type back then if you did run compact
Am I missing out on anything gameplay related by only buying the base edition? Also can I play Crossplay with my PS5 buddy if I'm on PC?
Old Cenny HV was also real nice
No
Cenny HV
cnet is the whole reason this turned into a mess

You will not be able to crossplay with PS5.
All cosmetics in this game is just that, cosmetics. They give you no benefits that anyone else don't have access to. (Unless you count the occasional camo skin that gets released)
No Crossplay wtf
PS5 and Xbox can't even invite eachother even though I'm pretty sure they crossplay.
when you found 50 bloodpoints
It's the only reason I'm somewhat fine with Cryteks increasing greedyness is because it's just skins and nothing gameplay related
Oh well I guess I skip this one thanks lol
It is what it is.
It's what it's
That's true, and instead of balancing that one gun Crytek hands out blanket changes based on that 
They're planning on including that, but that's been the talk since... Well, quite a few years now
Didn't HV have a Damage nerf from the start or was it just spitzer that did?
HV had no drawbacks aside from slightly increased recoil back then
I think I remember feeling like that was a bit silly at the time.
I'm fine with adding some drawbacks for it, but it got hit too hard imo
Compact should have only a 10% decrease, while medium could have the current nerfs
lol nice hat
explo crossbow 
real
God I just love it when I’m sneaking up on a team and then grunt number 645-2 aggro on me with 3 walls and a dream between me and it
It’s really fun
Anyway on to the next hunt
Probably the Centennial overall, or maybe the Haymaker
haymaker such a great weapon
Haymaker is my favoritest
BUT, my guilty pleasure is the mosin. Crisp sights, great sounds and satisfying bolt action
It’s so comically large
I honestly wish it'd be worse so I could bring myself to use it more often 
solo hunt is the only game that makes my heart race like a horror game when I was 12
Me after getting dome’d from halfway across the map by a weird shaped bush
(The rustling noises were slightly louder in that direction so it’s fair game)
Or when my two pardners are dead and I have to clutch
im finding a game rn and my team mates statistics are hidden in the loadout screen in the lobby I've never seen this
Yeah you just hide it it’s not hard
You can choose to hide it
Me and my full teams game just crashed at the same time wth😂😂
Sounds like the server wet the bed
I do miss the christmas trees and presents for sure
Snow would be a whole different beast to do though
i agree.. it has to be a lot of work but it would be so peak
I think it makes more sense to do as a new map that is always snowy rather than something like the rain or such

yes
That would be pog
Im just glad Ash Bloom is still gone
Idk, I kinda miss it
It was a better fog map imo since you had periods of good visibility
I despised it
And it was nice and atmospheric
The footstep sounds were awful to deal with
Those could be easily changed though if they were to bring it back
Some cooler otherwordly sound instead of something that sounds like steps
I'm also a fan of less low visibility conditions
Not being able to see 50m is not fun to me
It is to me
Get closer then 
Hell, I'd take Inferno back before Ash Bloom
lever action badge is 2k exp away from T5
Well, good news!
There wasn't a daytime inferno
There was. First Inferno was daytime just with everything super orange
Really hazey
It was a while back, tbf
The worst part was that windows were basically pitch black to look into from outside
While you could see out easily
Ooff right, I do remember not liking inferno all that much originally. It was difficult to see at times
Worst part of the original inferno was the frequency
I liked both infernos, but I think I was partial to the daytime one
50% at first with 100% on Fridays
Didn't you have to pick the inferno specifically originally?
Like it was wildcard + trios only
I do remember that you could dodge it entirely
I honestly forgot we had separate ques for that at one point
Ya my buddy was afraid of going duos v/ trios so we didn't play much inferno then
But wasn't the Wildcard que a thing for Rotjaw?
Might be mixing it up
Abd maybe second inferno?
I really don't remember
I don't think you could dodge first Inferno tho
I'm positive one of the infernos was avoidable
Probably second
It might be
Is a vault spam bind bannable?
I just realized GHub has stuff that can let you basically mash a key with a hold input
What advantage could such a thing possibly have?
more consistency on 1-frame vaults
It's stuff I use for like, Mirror's Edge to make 1-frame jump input possible
Is that bad?
Thing is I don't know what's the line here
Im pretty sure there's a separate keybind spot for vault
Me neither tbh
because iirc in games like CS a spam-shoot key is bannable but putting jump on scroll wheel to get perfect bhop is fine
Yeah but what I'm saying is like
Say you bind vault to caps lock or whatever
and you make a press on your mouse that basically spams caps lock
I bind vault to mouse wheel for those very tight vaults but my wheel is starting to break (again)
I'm just coming back from playing some chill single player games and putting macros like that for convenience
but IDK what the line is for macros in multiplayer games
I'm p sure there's really stupid shit like macros that control recoil for you (asia avto players)
Avto macros are deffo banable
Yeah so wbout a macro that's like, super simple like spamming a key
Technically if I had a working mouse wheel I'd be doing the same thing by binding vault to it and just scrolling the damn thing
I don't really wanna advice or philosophise about something that could potentially get you banned 
Crosshair X isn't bannable so...
Tbh they should just have a setting that's hold-to-vault at this point
Like the hold-interact thing
A lot of fighting games back then had press-to-tech and it led to people mashing to tech out of situations, then newer games implemented hold-to-tech as a QoL
So I feel it's a reasonable thing to ask here, since vaults can be mashy and stupid depending on how tight it is
You could go into #game-questions to see if any knowledgeable peeps could give you a clear answer
feedback is more giving your thoughts about changes or gameplay directions
I'd just post in game ideas and add the opt out (I don't know if this is the right place to ask)
Yo i see we are talking about avto here.
Says the one with the name ''Archer'' 🙂
🏹 🏹 🏹
Every time I peek a bow user: 
I do get nervous when i find zombies with arrows in them. I'm always saying to my friend '' Ok, be vigilant, we got a bow user somewhere''
Yesterday i got hit by 1 arrow and i had only 2 seconds to heal up, else i bled to death 😛
Who tf kills grunts with arrows and then doesn't retrieve them
Psychopath behaviour
My friend hates bows with a passion 
Always fear the bow. In my opinion it's just one of the best weapons in the game ever since it got the dmg boost. It's super consistent and I find it hard to think of a reason to take a slug's shotgun instead of a bow
Imagine playing bow.
Honestly they should make hundred hands melee more consistent and revert the dmg boost it got from 1896
The only answer i got to that, is faster rate of firing in mid-ranged combats
Idk I just hate it
Depend the shotgun.
Crossbow is 3 slot, doesn't fit in many loadouts where you'd use bow
Bow can instakill to arms and legs, Xbow doesn't
Yesterday tbh
I like both of the weapons. i usually use a bow when i'm vulturing around in a match
Like auto-5 slug was beyond broken when it came out.
I was gonna make a best gun in each category tier list
But I also wanted to take a nap
So
With blade mancer I guess high velocity xbow with scope isn't too bad even without the dmg pull
Realistically

But I get game balancing so
Realistically neither does but y'know
Havent tried that yet but that does sound like a good combination.
I don't even know how the devs would nerf bow.
think aperture sparks would be
Revert the dmg boost it got in 1896 for no reason
It was already good
Ehhhh
For those that don’t have scopes
Nobody uses apertures
sparks normal sight is still good for middle ground even long ranges
but being able to switch from normal to aperture with sparks might be interresting to see
Very clean, if you’re good
I guess atm no point in ap sight cus you can just get cracked shot
I use aperture weapons for their skins. The aperture itself is pretty useless
it has it's moments ngl
It’s for the rifles that don’t
it's a "just in case" tool
It works best with the high velocity bullets. As with most weapons that have high velocity by themselves, the bullet hits the target the moment you tap the trigger.
Was already strong, it just make it even better in very close range.
Those moments are very few and far between
This actually makes a lot of sense
The only aperture gun I can stand is the Lebel with spitzer
I’m gonna do this
still it's nice to have something for those moments
Cuz you can just squish the trigger if they're in the aperture sight
true
They should do something with the lebel, compared to other weapons nowadays it feels a bit slow for its price.
Slow?
I think that’s the trade off
Yeah I think if they revert dmg and then maybe make poison arrows not have increased spread for no reason it could be neat
High cap mid damage
It's the fastest velo gun we have 
Rate of fire wise
850 m/s with spitzer
It’s supposed to be
It's faster than the mosin
Lol, like bow is a big problem.
Mosin is 1.9 and lebel is 1.8
Imagine nerfing poison arrow.
Cycle? No. It shoots slower round for round compared to the mosin
Not really much
what about sparks
I'm asking to buff them
The stats show otherwise so imma need something to show that
Yeah that was the point i meant 😛
Single shots are in their own category imo
true true
The stats don't take into account iron eye
springfield is lowkey goated got me out of many sitations and helped me make money
but imo
The stats are using hip fire, which IE makes ADS fire rate match
i think the obrez match is very slept on but i still understand why tho
I always found iron eye to be a weird trait cus it just feels like you have to take it to get to play the guns how they're supposed to function in a game
When dum dum long ammo ?
If that was the case, the Lebel would be more popular, cuz cycle time is very important
i mean bolt action might have been smth new in the wild west
It's not as popular because the mosin is just better.
imagine you just pull back the bolt so far and hit your eye
I honestly love the Lebel though, but it needs some more love from the devs in my opinion.
Mako needs more love
If you're choosing mosin vs lebel, what reason is there to take the lebel if you want the best pick?
Like make it actually shoot as fast as it should instead of having weird buggy cycle
Yes! Because i think the centenial beats the Mako
Lebel is still fantastic. Problem is the mosin needs a damn nerf
1865 carbine needs more love
Then they may lower the price of the mosin too though if they do that.
Plus, nobody uses bolties without IE anyway
swift variant
True
I had 1865 carbine challenge yesterday and I have to say after not using it for a while it actually didn't feel too bad
I don't follow
Price is irrelevant to balance
Make mosin scarce 💀
Make spitzer scarce
#hunt-general message It does shoot faster
Look a bit OP to me.
No i think price tags are the reason as to why some guns are more powerful than others.
Eh tbh they should just balance ammo instead of making OP ammo scarce imo but yeah
It doesn't work in practice
What do you mean?
Gun price as a balancing mechanic
Lebel has velo + mag cap over its other counterparts, it's a snappy gun
My man, that was 3 years ago and it says (Fixed)
Let's give the best weapon of the game a fire rate of a carbine. 
What is "Plegde Hunters to any Troupe"
What is a Troupe and how do I pledge a hunter to one ?
The traits you can get in from the middle of the circus
oh thank you
I think the fact that they have thing you can buy for 1 million hunt dolar and that multiple people have bought it accidentally proves how well gun prices as a balancing mechanic works.
Money is a gatekeeping tool more than balance, and once you get to like 5* ranges, most people have plenty of money. At very high elo, people have millions of $
i got 1.3 million myself, but i'm not buying that damn badge 😛
I mean. It's a stupid thing to buy.
But I bet you don't care at all how much a gun costs
Depend the price, like for now i play an avto build, but i lose more money than i get.
I do hahaha thats the messed up part about me
Even if money was a proper balance tool to make it less frequent, it doesn't affect how it performs in game. I personally don't think that's a good balance philosophy in general
I hate that so much. I need to work on that myself.
Money only really matters as a serious limiting factor to those who actually prestige.
A gun that costs $500,000 that one taps everyone within 50m isn't balanced but it would be rare
and even then only if they don't win very often.
New Nitro Variant.
does your kit determine the level/mmr of the people you get match made with?
No?
Lol if you don't play avto every game i think you are fine with even giving 5k dollar every win.
I wouldnt even try to use that gun. Too expensive for me lol. Now if the gun would give you some sort of ''overshield'' or Leech effect... maayyybe... but in the end.. a bow can one shot you as you are patrolling with that gun.. so a big nope for me lol
Equipment makes zero difference to matchmaking
I feel like when I use cheap kits I get more low level people I guess I'm crazy
1 million dolar ballistic helmet.
That should be the case, but i guess i've become so greedy, that i want to see my hunt dollars go up instead of down, even when have that much hunt dollars. Its ridiculous.
This is what it means to be a millionaire.
a millionaire is just someone who owns a house 🔥
In these times nowadays, yep
speaking of, that badge that costs 1 mil, does it have levels
or just one purchase and that’s it
would be funny if it had tiers
I dont dare to find out, my assumption would be no leveling.
Pretty sure it's 1 and done.
Tiers would be so funny
Just remembered I still need to get those 3 railroad hammer kills for the story challenges, I guess I know what I’m doing this weekend
i got 2/3 in oen match and have had a devil of a time getting to the last one
I’m just coping and telling myself maybe I’ll find a solo I can farm
best case scenario
You just gotta get some spitzer sniper and be a rat, let 'em fight and take out the rest!
also came across someone who artificially inflated their furthest kill distance thing on their profile card
was like 1400m
Go into bounty clash, rush the lair, don't banish, wait for someone to go inside and rush them with a heavy attack primed
That's what I did
i’m guessing they got into a server with a friend to get it
My point is that it's not a good balance tool. The dolch is $750 and a damn menace to deal with
or a trap
You'll probably die but that was the easiest way for me
traps count????
traps count
yup
imagine like a single shot in-game event like homestead or the shredder
honestly sounds like a fun time
no guns, just tools and consumables but none that can kill
scavenge for weapons
though I’ve noticed weapons around the world seem more common now?
like the random spawn ones
Yeah, feels like it
Sometimes I find two guns in a single watch tower
Once a sparks + a sparks sniper 
anyone else experiencing hella rubberbanding on eu?
I had a sparks sniper and a regular sparks in the same tower I think
I didn’t even see your message unless we sent it same time
😭
amazing
probably like 4 bore rifle for 3 or 4 pledge
This happens on US East sometimes as well
Sometimes i wonder if that has to do with a player in the server with a very high ping? Or doesnt it work like that?
US East always has issues, it's the provider Crytek uses on East iirc
Do the trackers that are locked only start tracking after unlocking? or is stats previously accounted for
I think they’re always tracking but might be wrong
It tracks everything, you just need the badges and whatnot to display it
valid
ok cool, I wanted to see my longest kill distance but still locked
Are there here any r crytek emplyees?
Like the ones where you need 10 headshots or a long distance kill to unlock them? Technically they're always tracking but they just don't have anything to show for it until you unlock em. They don't retroactively track however
kill distance specifically
Why the hell aren't you doing anything about these Cronos users? Other developers manage it.
Ye, that one won't show your longest kill in the past month unlike other stat trackers like most kill weapon/Hunter which began a bit ago. So in that way it's fair to say it hasn't been tracking until you unlock it.
unfort, I saw a reddit post about it and some guy had a cross map trap kill and it counts, i've gotten a few of those and didn't know if the numbers would show or not, thx for the infos
A trap kill is counting for ranged? that's funny haha
It's very silly, yeah. If you see anyone with a long distance kill of 500m+, then it came from a trap.
If you see they have a kill of around 1440-1446m, then they teamed up with a buddy to kill each other in the absolute corners of the map, kinda ruining the whole prestige of a long distance kill with how cheap it is.
ffs, another loser hiding behind a wall forever until i finally get bored and make a push to insta headshot me, great "gameplay"
are these sweats allergic to gunfights? whats the point of even playing the game then
HUNT
what are cronos users
We should get Crytek to bring back buckshot bleed
Then 1896
great, a 5 kill game ended because i got bugged stuck on a tree with no way to move and hit to death by a grunt next to extraction
is the card that adds a dark sight decory good
do people go for it
where is a good place to put it
Sweetbell is a pretty good place to put it
But for real, if you're a solo, put it in the distance so they think you got a sniper duo
On a hill or something, or inside a compound so they think there's two of you
Am I the only one laging or the servers are laging?
I don't really pay too much attention to weapon stats so I have a question for people who do.
Why is the Officer more expensive than the New Army when the stats for New Army are overall better besides muzzle velocity
7 shots + velo. Velo costs
Is the velocity really a factor for pistols?
Now that they added the 1,000,000 Badge clearly targeting me i need to save up.
Unless you trying to hit 100m+ no
I mean... Velocity is velocity, don't matter what gun you're using
exactly. Not many people are using pistols outside of compound range
You can score some nice headshots at range with the officer
Officer is fun gun but i'd consider it a weak one.
Even the Carabine version
you take it for fun not to sweat.
So velocity is one of the biggest factors for price across all weapons?
Look at the cost of Centennial compared to Vett
No price is the factor of w/e the worm in the dev's brain says.
If there was a clear cut factor other than "We tweaked some numbers" we would tell you but you can get their reasoning for each change from patch notes. It varies from case to case
Cent has less damage and less bullets in total, yet it costs 157 vs Vetts 114 something
And now Vett shoots faster than it
If i remember correctly Romero used to cost 4$
It did!
And the conversion was half the price it is now
But then people started bitching and moaning about how rich they were and how they had no money problems so devs just cranked up numbers.
End result i'm from that time and i'm close to my 1,000,000 Badge 🤣
But guns cost 10-100x more
Go figure
Rewards are also better than compared back then
I think basic bounty was 200$ reward?
Yeah, somewhere in the 200/300 buck reward
If you had double whammy the other was 50% of that
and then you also did earn smidge from just playing as a passive accumulation.
But yeah it was diff numbers then, now you got bigger numbers! And still the same problem.
Now tho, Vulture + cash registers everywhere. Money ain't a problem anymore 
I scored like 7.2 grand last night in trios, three bounties in total
I mean, money is still rarely an issue.
I'm not a fantastic player but each session I usually net +2-5k
I don't run super expensive loadouts, not because I can't affoard them but because I like other weapons and im not a meta slave
It never was tho. That's why they started originally cranking up numbers
I had a guy go mental because I burned a body the other day and when I asked what the problem was he said he needs money lol
I stopped tracking long ago i just play the game 🤣
Some people really struggle to make money
I'm a loot goblin so I can relate
No matter how much I try i can't seem to get rid of my money.
Though I'm not mental if someone gets burned 
I tried burning it, giving it away, eating it....
bruh bounty clash is just shotgun shotgun shotgun, facing a 3 shitgun trio as a solo is rough
Hunt Showdown is just shotgun shotgun shotgun these days
I don't know a game mode that is CQC Galore has a CQC Gun meta?
In other news water is wet.
because you can doesnt mean you should, although yes bringing a shotgun is definitely the right play but it's still frustrating to go against
That's the catch you can't have fun without freedom of choice and everyone's definition of fun is also subjective.
Some people enjoy winning no matter the cost and they will take w/e they think will net them the win.
You can't eradicate that problem without turning the game inot a boring rockpaper scissors or "Here is a pew pew that shoots faster! But does equally lower DMG" and "Here is a pew pew that shoots wloer! But does equally higher DMG."
where is fun in that?
i just wish there was a limit to how many shotguns a trio can run
I mean, with the buff to shotguns in general + introduction of Auto-4, there's little reason to not go long ammo rifle + shotgun
My fav loadout from "High Tier" is Mosin Bayonet + Hand Crossbow 😐
Revive bolt veteran huh? 
Rifle + Dual Lemat is also nice
Actually fire bolts but i also did run Rev bolts i liekd them actually
Never had issues with Rev bolts
shotbolt was my go to but they gutted it and turned it into hitmarker simulator
Ya it's bugged now
Basic Crossbow with Basic Bolts + Dyno Bolts as Secondary + Uppercat was also a nice combo i ran
Never liked Shot Bolts
"now" its been for the past couple months at least
