hunt-general

[quiet hinge]

its probably a smurf

[whole mist]

i can hear this

[quiet hinge]

a cheater with a fresh account and only a 2.4kdA? idk about that

[trail spade]

Why not tho ?

Hunt accs arent expensive

[quiet hinge]

im not saying that its not a cheater, i'm saying that its not 100% a cheater based on the statline and his level

his current level / bounty collected and shit getting a 2.4 kd as a smurf is really easy

[trail spade]

Oh sure im just engaging in conversation. Cant really prove he is or isnt a cheater

[normal radish]

i can now too thank you

[quiet hinge]

i hope the flame thrower isn't scarce

i want some cool weapons added to hunt

[normal radish]

"new scarece weapon" im afaraid it is

[quiet hinge]

: (

[trail spade]

Its going to be so OP

[normal radish]

nah its going to be soop at most

[trail spade]

Nah I can already see it

Instantly burns 3 bars off

[normal radish]

soop

[trail spade]

Will be back next year

"Fixed"

Like the shredder

[normal radish]

indeedeibly

[quiet hinge]

wonder when the bow will become a 3 slot weapon

maybe next year

or you know what? I'd settle if they buffed crossbow to do 275 damage

[inland stump]

crossbow is already good tbh

prob better than bow

[quiet hinge]

explain

[inland stump]

movement

steel bolt + shot bolt

way better to hit moving targets

imo

[quiet hinge]

I hate this argument so much

[inland stump]

i agree its powerful but i dont think it is as much as people say

not in every scenario

[mortal cove]

Crossbow has the option of Shotbolt which gets cracked kills through walls and barriers.

Crossbow also has Steelbolt avaible which outperforms bow in both damage and velocity

[inland stump]

if someone is sitting in a corner and you push them weapon usually dont matter

[trail spade]

Never

[inland stump]

romero, bow, crossbow anything has potential

[trail spade]

They will give us a smol bow thats 1 slot

[quiet hinge]

whats the range to kill in arm for crossbow?

[inland stump]

I have 0 stress when peeking with crossbow

[quiet hinge]

with steel bolts

[inland stump]

how many times you died to a bow with arm shot

[chrome stratus]

Holy fuck the shredder is ass

I didn't realize it now has that windup 💀

[mortal cove]

You are just ass at using it

[chrome stratus]

[quiet hinge]

tons, and i've killed tons in the arm lol

[mortal cove]

Personally I love the wind-up

[trail spade]

I like the legshot kills myself. HH is worth it for me just for that

[quiet hinge]

i just dont understand the argument behind crossbow being 246 vs 275. A 2 slot utility weapon that can only be heard 50m if not obstructed with the ability to get concertina arrows and the forbidden super rare frag arrows nowadays, does 275 damage and allowing a 3 slot weapon to cover whatever you think the bows weakness is

both weapons kill from 34m away, but the bow is more reliable because of hundred hands. I can't count how many times i've been directly hit by a shotbolt and it do 75% of my health, and just letting me kill the crossbow because of it

even had a guy add me after a game show me a clip of him hitting me with it LOL

[mild flower]

was it confirmed to be a flamethrower?

[quiet hinge]

no i have no clue what its gonna be, its just speculation

[mild flower]

ok good

[frigid ibex]

That's because shotbolt is bugged. In reality it should one hit kill.

Like it always had

[quiet hinge]

yea but its been bugged for how long now? it might as well be a fuckin feature ya?

[frigid ibex]

There's no official statement that even hints that

[quiet hinge]

hints what?

[frigid ibex]

That it's a feature

[quiet hinge]

yeah, that was a joke

because of how long its been bugged and not fixed

[frigid ibex]

Well it's been the same until a year ago

That's when it started

[jaunty patio]

It's basically confirmed at this point with the fuel gauge image posted today. Beyond that:
Roadmap 2026 blogpost:

Furthermore, get ready for a significant addition to your arsenal in 2026. While we are not ready to reveal all the surprises, watch out for the glint of a new, experimental firearm that harnesses a primal and destructive force, promising to open up entirely new tactical possibilities.
Web of the Empress Survey blogpost:
You never know—Bileweaver infestations are hard to stamp out. They are persistent and can come back with a vengeance, and you can only hope you have the proper equipment for it...fiery things, preferably
And lastly, the Inferno wildcard condition returning thematically fits with a flamethrower being added alongside it.

[mortal cove]

A flamethrower would be perfect

[dawn zinc]

I hope inferno doesn't return

twice is more than enough. Such a horrid event

[hasty wharf]

1000 years in the shadow realm

[normal radish]

first its not, second okay ill have yours

[hasty wharf]

devils moon inferno was kinda buttcheeks but the nighttime inferno was solid

[chrome stratus]

I don't have it anymore

https://tenor.com/view/dexter-gif-1878760417600646737

[normal radish]

yeh its in my pocket

[mortal cove]

I love the Inferno though

[chrome stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/smeagol-gollum-lotr-lord-of-the-rings-my-precious-gif-4792359101170428467

[mortal cove]

Especially with all the graphical improvements of the new engine

• HDR

I wanna see that blazing hot fire in HDR

[hasty wharf]

Bring back electric lamp btw

[inland stump]

are there any vids of that event

never seen it

[mild flower]

Damn, well I hope it has a bit more to it than just typical flamethrower things because otherwise I admit id he disappointed

They really hyped it up

We have terminus db levering ykwim

[mortal cove]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLMALbdknu4

The original Inferno trailer

Man

What a moody trailer

Devils Moon to the Tide Events was a special time for Hunt Showdown

[mild flower]

Though flamethrower does seem to be one of the most requested weapons, so it's nice to see they're probably listening to the discord

[jaunty patio]

For sure. One thing that could make it stand out from most dragonbreath weapons would be the range at which it can shoot fire. If it can set people aflame at dragonbolt distances but with better ammo it could be a rather nasty niche weapon.

[inland stump]

it looks really good tho

its a vibe

[mild flower]

I hope it can spray fuel on the ground to ignite. That way they also actually make good on the "brand new strategic possibilities" promise.

[mortal cove]

It's in the old engine as well

If Crytek did another Inferno it would look better

[inland stump]

i mean whats next after circus?

pretty sure they will come up w something right lol

[jaunty patio]

This is all we know. Nothing specific on what form the next event in February will take

[deft cipher]

Is there ANY way to see what all the titles mean in your profile?

Like wtf is Centenarian and why is it golden

[fathom shale]

P100

[deft cipher]

and what is The Prestigious then?

[jaunty patio]

Centenarian is for reaching P100, Diamond/Gold/Silver victor and The Prestigious for reaching Prestige 75/50/25/1

[deft cipher]

What is Diamon/Gold/Silver Victor supposed to mean?

ah I see

what you mean

[inland stump]

what do y'all think about more hunters per match

[deft cipher]

about time especially in trio

[fathom shale]

Not looking forward to even more 3rd partying

[normal kayak]

i think theres already enough in a match tbh

[jaunty patio]

I'm gonna be sad to lose more matches

[normal kayak]

more hunters just means more of what i dont like

[fathom shale]

Hunt is good because of it's pacing, it already gets chaotic when all teams end up fighting in the same compound

[normal kayak]

third partying, spawn fights

and also you get to chill after a fast lobby wipe which wouldnt happen as easy with more hunters

[inland stump]

It gets really chaotic when two teams fight in a random spot then everyone shows up there, I am not sure how it will be if we have 20 players per match lmao

[normal kayak]

is more hunters just an idea or is that happening

[inland stump]

Sometimes I like the slow pacing of following enemy team and eventually hunting them

I also like the rush etc but I think more players might complicate things

[inland stump]

sounds like it will happen?

[whole ivy]

Does anyone know for sure what Hunt is processed with Audio Sample wise? 16 or 24bit and what khz?

[rocky citrus]

Guys, I would like to know if the reporting function in the game works? Because I just encountered a cheater and can be 100% sure that the other party must cheat, will the official deal with it after reporting it?

[inland stump]

Idk hopefully it does but ppl also say record it and send it via ticket

[normal kayak]

😞

[rocky citrus]

Because I don't receive notifications when cheaters' accounts are banned, unlike in PUBG.

You know

[fathom shale]

It does

All reports are looked at and taken into consideration when reviewing accounts

[rocky citrus]

If the in-game reporting function doesn't work and you have to contact Crytek via email, that's too troublesome and inefficient, you know what I mean.

[jaunty patio]

The in-game reporting function works but iirc in-game reports are handled by volume since rage accusations are a thing. A single in-game report might not register as highly as a whole lobby giving reports after a single match.
Reporting through #customer-support guarantees a human will look at the report and can take steps to investigate such as looking through in-game reports connected to that player. This is all speculation however, how they actually operate is kept out of the public eye.

[fathom shale]

I can even see in my GDPR request every report done to me and by me, so all of it is logged and looked at

[oak junco]

is this furthest kill possible

[jaunty patio]

Almost, I believe 1446 or around that number is the absolute limit, corner to corner

[hasty wharf]

I've seen slightly further, but that's pretty close.

[frigid ibex]

are people playing on dead lobbies to do this?

[oak junco]

Do you think people try to get in the same server with their friends to get this kill

[frigid ibex]

lol

same train of thought

[mortal cove]

The recommendation seems to be 48k 24-bit

But really it‘s not a big deal

[hasty wharf]

doesnt really have to be dead lobby but yeah people are matchmaking in together (separately) to do this

[mortal cove]

You can run 384k as well

[jaunty patio]

Yes, that's the only way to do it. Two solos queue up on a dead server (OCE or Russia during their night times) and then coordinate their kills together.

It's super lame imo and cheapens the kill distances of 400+ that were done by guns

[hasty wharf]

agreed

[rocky citrus]

Okay, bro. But I'm wondering why we can't do what PUBG does and notify the reporter in-game that the cheater's account has been penalized? That would be very efficient, restore player confidence, and let players know that the official team is making efforts for the healthy development of the game.

🤔

[wanton surge]

Hello, I wanted to ask a couple of questions about the game. I'm thinking about buying it but I heard that there are many cheaters and I also wanted to know if the game has support for Xbox controllers on PC

[frigid ibex]

Crytek CM on bilibili lists steam ID's on ban waves. I assume there's a reason why crytek outside of china doesn't do that.

On the legal side

[fathom shale]

There aren't anywhere near as many cheaters as some people claim

[jaunty patio]

No idea really, they don't do it cause their system isn't set up to do it I guess, and they currently don't want to or are unable to change that system, either cause of the work needed or Germany's privacy laws or something weird like that.

[wanton surge]

That's good to avoid cheaters, thanks for the clarification.

[fathom shale]

Hunt just is the kind of game where people easily call out cheats when they don't understand what happened

[hasty wharf]

cheater problem is hella overexaggerated. yes the game supports controllers but you get no aim assist on pc with one

[wanton surge]

Could you tell me if it has support for controllers on PC? I would like to play with a keyboard and mouse but I can't for personal reasons.

[rocky citrus]

Wow, that's cool! I hadn't noticed that before. Thanks for reminding me, buddy.
Yeah, I've been playing on the Asian server lately. There are so many cheaters. They're incredibly brazen. They don't use their main accounts; they use secondary accounts to cheat.

[hot mortar]

are there any penalties from disconnecting from a match? i wanna farm hellborns for the title and jsut go in on a free hunter with a hammer and if its not mammons with hellborn go next, will i be timed out from matchmaking or smth?

[fathom shale]

You can play with controller but there's no aim assist so you will be at a disadvantage overall

[wanton surge]

okay that seems logical to me

[frigid ibex]

I personally believe witchhunting or risks of witchhunting is bad especially since people on the internet have managed to hunt other people down on minimal evidence

[wanton surge]

Well, I also played many hours of reforger with a controller and there I think you don't have aiming assistance either, that's not a problem for me. I can't play with a keyboard because I had an accident and I don't have as much mobility as I would like with the keyboard.

thank you all for answering my questions

[rocky citrus]

I even checked the suspected cheater's Steam profile and saw comments from other players criticizing him for cheating; some of these comments were entirely condemnations. If SteamVAC were to ban an account upon confirming cheating, it would be ideal, preventing cheaters from using alt accounts to cheat.

All I can say is that the idea is beautiful.

[wanton surge]

This is seen a lot in reforger players who already had VAC bans and even then they don't get banned on servers with mods 😂

They say that it makes no sense to ban them for using cheats in other games but I always thought that if they cheat in another game they will cheat in the rest of the games they play

[rocky citrus]

All right

All right

[inland stump]

cheaters suck at the game even more than anyone else

imagine needing third party app to get some kills in a game

[wanton surge]

In my opinion it is ridiculous but we live in a time when people look for the minimum effort and do not want to learn.

[rocky citrus]

yes
It seems we can only hope that the reporting function in HUNT will prompt Crytek to take action. Currently, there's no better or more efficient solution.

🙃

[autumn abyss]

That's not what I asked but okay.

I was starting an entirely separate discussion

[wanton surge]

Nowadays it is very difficult to hunt them, more than difficult to hunt them, it is difficult for them not to ignore the sanctions that they impose

[inland stump]

I don't think cheating is a nationality issue tbh

[tidal haven]

Let's refrain from accusing entire countries of using cheats please. The discussion is fine, but let's not blame entire nationalities

[untold stag]

I find it’s often humans cheating 🤖 💬

[grizzled iris]

Often…

https://tenor.com/view/dexter-james-doakes-surprise-mf-can't-prove-it-gif-7408854170742055240

[inland stump]

aliens cheat more

you never seen em

[tidal haven]

read the rules

[autumn abyss]

I wasn't accusing anyone of anything. I wasn't even talking about cheating ffs

[rocky citrus]

Okay, bro. At least we can see that the official team is making efforts to combat cheating, which is a good thing.

[tidal haven]

I wasn't pointing anyone out... I was making a broad statement

I'm trying to help you here

read the rules

[autumn abyss]

Apologies, what rule did I break?

[tidal haven]

Also, just because I'm speaking in chat doesn't mean I'm the one who did it

[autumn abyss]

Ooooh it's because I said CrapTek! Mate, I didn't even realise. I use that more often than CryTek it's become the primary word for the studio. Sorry about that, I genuinely didn't realise I typed that.

[tidal haven]

in the future, @lilac swan for any questions regarding warnings and such ^^

[rocky citrus]

Well, it's a pity that a report notification function similar to PUBG cannot be implemented in HUNT.

[tidal haven]

we don't want everyone knowing everyone elses business you know

[autumn abyss]

But going back to my actual question.... What percentage of the European server traffic come from Russia and Belarus? In terms of demographics.

[wanton surge]

I did not do it with the intention of offending anyone, it is something that I have read about several studies that have been done on this topic, my apologies anyway 🤝

[hasty wharf]

we all know europe isn't real guys cmon stop pretending

[mystic cape]

Hey

[wanton surge]

wtf hahaha why do you say that?

[rocky citrus]

Yes, I don't deny that this happens, although it's the case in most cases. However, the large number of cheaters is also inseparable from the game's mechanics, which makes it difficult for many players to determine whether someone is cheating. But it's not entirely impossible to tell.

[hasty wharf]

ive been to space and i could see that theres just no land there at all its just ocean.

[hot mortar]

sniper scopes give me a headache, never again, ironsights my beloved

i heared centennial sniper was good and decided to try it, wasnt worth it now im nausious

[wanton surge]

hahaha so my country according to you doesn't exist? and am I a fish?

[tidal haven]

they were kidding, I don't believe they meant it to be a serious comment >.> lol

[hot mortar]

its ok, hes american, he was just looking at the pacific ocean and mistook it for europe, they dont teach them geography well 🤭

[rocky citrus]

yeah
What you're saying is beyond our control.

[wanton surge]

That's true, for some reason they call themselves "Americans" and it's not even a country, it's an entire continent.😂

[rocky citrus]

Yes, I agree with your point. What I want to say is that people who create cheat programs are not as annoying as people who use them.

[hot mortar]

not even just one continent

[rocky citrus]

yes

[wanton surge]

Brother, my building probably has more history than your city. It is a building from 1850 and is considered historical heritage of Barcelona.😂

[grizzled iris]

Well United Statesans doesn’t quite sounds nice does it haha

[hot mortar]

do challenges

its in the second tab

in weekly or story challenges

gl, they arent that bad but i hope u like pax

[wanton surge]

For me it sounds good but it is a question of egos, they believe that they are America in general and that, for example, Mexico for some reason no longer belongs to America. You just have to take a geography exam, most of them will tell you that Spain is in Mexico.

[rocky citrus]

ok

[wanton surge]

ok

[hot mortar]

united states is older than 1850 tho

[wanton surge]

obviously, but not many of its cities

[hot mortar]

many cities (afaik, im not american) had their beginning as settlements when they were expanding inland, so they have old origins but they werent cities back then

[wanton surge]

Its oldest city is San Agustin and we Spaniards founded it XDD

[atomic coral]

Do what you need to. I've seen people who have to play with one hand and a foot dunk on normal people.

[wanton surge]

I know that I personally am missing 3 fingers on my left hand.

[whole epoch]

as a new player any tips?

[astral moss]

https://tenor.com/view/gandalf-lord-of-the-rings-fly-you-fools-idiots-gif-22861858

[frank brook]

watch out sound traps, melee kill monsters, pvp is intense and if you're not fast you're dead, be very careful with not burning, shotguns are good, play a lot of "soul survivor", you dont risk anything, you can practice and make money for the real thing

idk what else to say

im probably missing many important things

[whole epoch]

okay bet noted

it’s okay gotta start somewhere

[astral moss]

Don't crouchwalk h24.

[frank brook]

avoid running near compunds i forgot to say

[trail spade]

shoot dudes, loot dudes, burn dudes extract

its really simple

[whole epoch]

why no running near compounds just for audio or

[frank brook]

it is not

[whole epoch]

game is definitely not simple

[frank brook]

doing that you're gonna die 10/10 times

[whole epoch]

played every other extraction shooter under the sun

had an aneurysm just from the hunt ui

[trail spade]

lol

[astral moss]

Depend the situation.

If you are spotted its better to run.

[frank brook]

yeah, i got onto this game to take a break from tarkov, this is way better, even tho i crash out a lot cuz i suck

[trail spade]

shoot players dont trigger audio traps

its really simple

most of it is just knowing compounds which you learn in time

[astral moss]

Nah audio trap are a joke.

[trail spade]

https://tenor.com/view/hunt-hunt-showdown-hunt-showdown-meme-gif-24990469

tbh if he is new.. a lot of 3* or whatever trigger every trap under the sun

[astral moss]

Like don't look compound, there is nothing, just run clue to clue.
If you are fast enough nobody is gonna ambush you.

[whole epoch]

i already a void the glass and cans and stuff

[frank brook]

nope, i know from where dudes are coming 2 minutes earlier cuz i see crows in the background

[whole epoch]

or try to jump it if i can

figured that was common sense

[astral moss]

Yeah cool but if you run around the map you can't be ambushed.

[whole epoch]

same with the animals that wanna fucking yell when i just mosey on by

[astral moss]

Since everybody carefully walk to don't triggerd sound trap you are faster.

[frank brook]

the crows that are chilling around (and wounded horses and cows), keep your distance from then and walk slow, if you are a bit near then crouch and pass very slowly

you gotta have patience in this game sometimes

[frank brook]

yeah but you'll have to go to a compund at some point, unless you want 0% risk

and you will get caught

[astral moss]

Like only time you have to avoid sound trap is when you are around a bosslair with people inside, like before that its fine.

[whole epoch]

yeah ofc patience is an extraction shooter

btw

[astral moss]

Yeah on the boss.

[whole epoch]

weapon rec? ik most things are viable to an extent

[astral moss]

Like why loot compound, you just lose time.

[whole epoch]

but im a meta abuser

[woven cape]

Mosin

[fathom shale]

Not another one

[woven cape]

Dolch

[wheat pilot]

The point is that if you trigger a noise trap and don't stick around 90% of the time it won't matter

[frank brook]

i mean as far as i know, the more expensive the better

[woven cape]

Uhh Cyclone

[astral moss]

https://tenor.com/view/tekken-tekken8-king-intro-flex-gif-27703000

[frank brook]

yeah, but theres always that 10%

[whole epoch]

also wtf is 3* 5* etc

[astral moss]

I never get ambushed even in 6*, like if you don't loot compound and just run clue to clue its impossible to get ambushed.

[whole epoch]

uglier but looks easier to digest

[wheat pilot]

It depends on what you want to do because if you are approaching a group of players or tying to approach the boss lair unnoticed then sure, watch out for noise traps.

But if I'm just running around collecting clues then usually I couldn't care less how much noise I make

[atomic coral]

Here's the old UI

[frank brook]

i guess the compunds names, but i have no idea

[whole epoch]

without a small explanation the loadout screen made me throw up in my mouth a little

[trail spade]

What if the clue leads to a compound people are camping ?

[astral moss]

People can't be there since you are faster than the other team.

[whole epoch]

no im assuming its a rank of some kind seeing how people use it in LFG

[frank brook]

personally i learnt by myself stuff, i didnt watch streamers or ask people, i just died 30000 times until i got the hang of it, and to this day im still shit, you cant always win

[frank brook]

maybe is is the MMR

makes sense

[astral moss]

Nothing important.

[frank brook]

very helpful indeed

[astral moss]

What ?
I am not wrong.

[frozen obsidian]

WOW, so we are getting TIHAR-esque weapon from Metro series?

[frank brook]

also why whenever i get near players using a beetle my camera starts stuttering? is this normal or am i the only one?

[whole furnace]

Just took the nitro for a spin for a couple of rounds, god it is sucha noob cannon

[frank brook]

in metro it was a pain in the ass to use

[astral moss]

Or avto if you are rich.

[frank brook]

if im honest

[trail spade]

They can just spawn closer or just on it and camp since they heard you trigger 10 crows. Or did I misunderstand what you mean by rushing compounds ?

[astral moss]

Depend the clue pattern, if it center around the middle you can just run since you are faster.

But if you spawn at like blackthorn and gazwork is in the pattern maybe be carefull.

But if people spawn at gazwork they wont be there before you come.

(I am doing my best at explaining here.)

[wheat pilot]

Eh everything you do in this game makes sounds and the clue is super loud when someone is within 30 meters of it. It's hard to get caught completely unprepared

[hasty wharf]

perhaps

[astral moss]

That too.

[wheat pilot]

And also noise traps like crows have only an 80 meters audible radius iirc. That's really not that much

[astral moss]

You see it in the sky for how long ?

[atomic coral]

Rail spike gun

[trail spade]

Sure I just didnt understand what he meant

[astral moss]

I do my best to explain man...

[trail spade]

No no I got you

I meant the first time

Its finally snowing ovah here and I am just admiring it ngl. We need snow map in hunt :(

[opal dawn]

We have negative fahrenheits and plenty of snow, you can come and help yourself to both if you want

[trail spade]

Snow is amazing

[whole epoch]

also sorry guys im back

are hunters purely cosmetic

cuz

[hasty wharf]

thats definitely not true, it's significantly further than that

[whole epoch]

im about to INVEST

[opal dawn]

Yes

[whole epoch]

holy tuff

[frank brook]

blub blub

[whole epoch]

never spent 7 dollars faster

[frank brook]

i spent like 20

euros

[astral moss]

Yes.

[wheat pilot]

I'm just basing it off an audio range map, but it may be outdated so I'm not gonna argue

[whole furnace]

Play bad, win anyways, good ol' Nitro gaming.

[frank brook]

i mean depends how you look at it, you might wanna take dark characters so you camuflage better with the surroundings

[woven cape]

Only do this if you a lil bitch tho

[opal dawn]

Eh, the really dark chars stand out in the swamp tbh

[frank brook]

complaining about colors in a game thats about camping?😭

[woven cape]

This is why Headsman was so good, perfect blend of brown and grey

[opal dawn]

MIAOWRSHS

[woven cape]

Henlo Gwug

[whole epoch]

oh that was my first thought

bought angel of death

[hasty wharf]

why did crytek support respond with my full government name bro why do they have that 😭 i dont remember putting that in

[astral moss]

Since you hit him you are better.

[opal dawn]

Angel of death is not difficult to spot tho

[woven cape]

And social security number, they have you bro

[whole epoch]

its better than a dude in a red shirt and a bowler hat is it not.. wrong person

thought so

[hasty wharf]

bro im scared wtf i dont think i typed that in.

[frigid ibex]

fr?

[frank brook]

fire asf, i bought like 5 char

[opal dawn]

I legit have more trouble seeing some tier 1 hunters than those with black/dark camo

[woven cape]

Dizz hopped on Hunt for 10 minutes then hopped off

[whole furnace]

To be fair, that headshot follow up was sick.

• I've been hitting two similiar headshots like 3 min before this clip.

[hasty wharf]

yes lmfaooo 😭

[frigid ibex]

no one hopped on

I also tested something

on shooting range

[woven cape]

But you made a crytek account

[frigid ibex]

it would be 2 minutes if I could edit my weapons mid match

[woven cape]

So get cooked

[frank brook]

off topic but i really like the turncoat

[fathom shale]

Is your name part of your email?

Something like [e-mail]

[hasty wharf]

no lmao, maybe i entered it in somewhere or it was required when i made the account ages ago idk

[frank brook]

i feel like this question is strongly insulting tacomanx's intelligence

[hasty wharf]

still a jumpscare fr

[frigid ibex]

did you make it for like Crysis 2 multiplayer?

or crysis 3

or crysis 1 if you're really OG

[hasty wharf]

no it was for hunt, but it was a few years ago now i think

[fathom shale]

Maybe, I don't remember when I would've given my name either but they refer to me with my full name in support as well

But I assume it was during account creation

[frigid ibex]

I had a crytek accoutn since crysis something

crysis 2 I think

never played 3

[mild flower]

Crytek has every single human's full name and details

We can't question it

[frigid ibex]

So if they don't have my name, that means im not human

💀

i don't wanna find out

[opal dawn]

Or it was a really really good guess

[hasty wharf]

Alright i just made a new account and at no point was i prompted to enter my name what the fuck lmfao

[mild flower]

Oh.. you didn't know already? I'm sorry you had to find out this way

[woven cape]

This seems more plausible

[frigid ibex]

lets keep it simple

ask them how they know your name

there you go

[hasty wharf]

🤔

[frigid ibex]

is the ticket still open

[opal dawn]

Hey Dizz, can you... Type what's in there

[mild flower]

Maybe your old middle school friend was operating the crytek support at that time and recognised your username :)

[frigid ibex]

Match the characters in the picture Help To continue, type the characters you see in the picture. Why? The picture contains 8 characters. Characters: Continue

[opal dawn]

Very gooood, you passed it!

[frank brook]

I was about to answer like a dumbass and then i saw the context of why you sent it

[crystal bay]

I'd assume via your email, if your name is attached to your email

[opal dawn]

Bro has his social number as a sig

[frigid ibex]

Who would attach their name to their email

(I do)

[hasty wharf]

my email does not contain my name in any form

[opal dawn]

Not even as a Kind Regards

[brazen bone]

somebody know why i have a lot ping on europe servers? im literally living there

[crystal bay]

Well your email address doesn't have to contain your name, but you still have a name attached toi it

[frigid ibex]

Routing issues most likely

[crystal bay]

to it*

Does it have a fake name attached to it?

[tiny remnant]

Hey guys is this a fixable thing? Been happening for a few days now just wondering what the fix is

[opal dawn]

but yeah, Dizz had the right idea, just f'kin ask them

[frank brook]

You gotta move out of your country

Jk idk

[tiny remnant]

Had me nervous there

[frank brook]

HAHAHA

[opal dawn]

Go into options, change regions and apply, then back again, see if that works

[tiny remnant]

Yeah I’m cooked boys nothing is working

[mild flower]

have you tried restarting your pc

The tried and true

[opal dawn]

And maybe even the router

[wicked fox]

Possible weapon tease soon?

[frigid ibex]

They did one

[opal dawn]

Why would we tease weapons? They could go off

[wheat pilot]

they basically just confirmed it's a flamethrower

[atomic coral]

If you entered it when making an email account, email providers can send that as metadata that can be looked at by email clients (such as those used by customer service providers).

[astral moss]

Flamethrower, based on the theory.

[dawn zinc]

I'm really curious how the flamethrower will work

[wheat pilot]

flamethrowers in games are usually not very good but also very annoying to play against imo

[dawn zinc]

is it gonna spit fireballs

[woven cape]

It'll throw flames

[wheat pilot]

So i'm hoping they can somehow avoid that here

[mild flower]

Terminus db

[hasty wharf]

that's probably it tbh. deleting all my emails right now

[dawn zinc]

If it continuously throws flames I wonder how the fuel will work

[mild flower]

Ngl I doubt it because out of every game I know hunt has THE single most annoying fire mechanics of any game

Not necessarily bad or poorly designed but they are annoying at their core

[frigid ibex]

Same

[frigid ibex]

Well in hunt, fire can permakill you so

Hopefully it's not that bad

[hasty wharf]

my guess is that it's a winfield that launches fireballs and will be incredibly annoying since it splashes aoe

semi auto dragonbolts basically

throw in some direct damage on impact too, since it has to be a full fledged primary weapon. like 75 or something idk

[mortal basin]

I'm already pissed

[frigid ibex]

Question is how the damage will work. Will it be true damage or charcoal damage?

Or a mix

[hasty wharf]

exactly 25 charcoal in an aoe, with 75 actual damage on impact, plus around 10 more charcoal for a direct hit as well

oh and also the fireballs airburst in proximity with hunters because crytek probably didnt learn their lesson from the frag blades

[frigid ibex]

You mean like splash damage?

[mild flower]

Can we give it a tf2 airblast

[hasty wharf]

reflects bullets

[mild flower]

Honestly if you can time a reflect with 400-800m/s bullets I'll give it to you

[hasty wharf]

dont have to time it, its a continuous flow for as long as you hold the button

[mild flower]

Yeah ok that would be something

[orchid crest]

Yo, new to this discord, just came here to ask, where is the fucking guitar?

[hasty wharf]

the what

[orchid crest]

The got damn guitar that was talked about during the first murder circus

[hasty wharf]

never made the cut

[orchid crest]

Thats a load of bs, a guitar would fuck so hard. In war we need a little drummer boy, but instead of a boy he'll be a man, and men play the guitar damnit

[woven cape]

I want harmonica

[grizzled iris]

Bro a 3 slot guitar would go so hard

It would be extra awesome if we could import midi music or whatever

[woven cape]

[deft cipher]

"furthest kill distance" is just bullets, right?

[wide whale]

nO

[deft cipher]

like if someone steps into my trap across the map it's not counted right

[whole furnace]

It is

[deft cipher]

that sucks

[hardy coral]

so glad stamina shots are 9 min next patch 🙂

[hasty wharf]

9 minutes total with 4 of them 🥀

[sweet ocean]

Remember when the meta was poison concertina tripwires every doorway and the only real counter was poison shots so they nerfed the duration of those shots

[whole furnace]

What

[hardy coral]

remember when there was no fanning or levering

[whole furnace]

That was never the meta lol
It is one of those evergreen gameplans, but killtraps have never been "meta" in that sense.

[wheat pilot]

It would be hard to make traps meta because they rely on your enemy not paying attention

and / or not using vigilant

[grizzled iris]

And those were dark days

[whole furnace]

And vigilant goes brrrrrrrrrrrr

[grizzled iris]

Dark days indeed

[orchid crest]

I would gladly waste a 3 slot for a guitar

[hardy coral]

remember when it was the winfield

[high nacelle]

Remember when buckshot always caused bleeding

[grizzled iris]

See now that I don’t miss

Remember when Quartermaster let you take two three slot weapons

Like regular schmegular quartermaster

[whole furnace]

Remember when women caused concept of fall damage to Hunt?

[grizzled iris]

Oh and the LeMat was once a rank 100 unlock on the bloodline

[grizzled iris]

What

xD

[whole furnace]

Before women in Hunt, no fall damage.
After women in Hunt, fall damage.

[grizzled iris]

Ohhhhh shit

Honestly I never thought of it quite like that haha

That’s funny I’ll be stealing that

[whole furnace]

"Like the good ol' Hunt days, before those fancy womenfolk and fall damage those young kids are all about nowadays!"

God I remember the fucking shitshow of incel tier cretins that pushed back against female Hunters in Hunt when it got requested and finally announced.

[high nacelle]

lol

I've met a surprising amount of women/queer people who play a lotta hunt.

Honestly the aimkids now are over here playing 3000 hours of aimlab and a lotta em are like that

[coral robin]

what was this icon again? i forgot

[atomic coral]

Packet loss

[coral robin]

thank yu

[atomic coral]

Orange is about 15 packets/sec lost, red is 20+

I get it often, casuses micro rubber banding, annoying as hell

[coral robin]

but is it my problem? on teamspeak i have no packet loss at all 0%

[atomic coral]

Hunt sends a lot more packets per second. And it can be anywhere between you and the server.

[dawn zinc]

I love it when someone you had a gunfight with was streaming. Just got to watch back how the last guy of a trio accidentally killed themselves with a frag grenade lmao

[coral robin]

okay thank you

[hazy crest]

is there some new exploit to tap fire avtomat

just got killed by someone shooting 1 round at a time accurately at 70+ meters

[astral moss]

Bro is asking for exploit.

[hazy crest]

im asking if its a thing people are aware of

[astral moss]

Did he head shot ?

[hazy crest]

i havent used an avto in years its disgusting

[astral moss]

I don't like that statement.

When its actually a really skill weapon.

[hazy crest]

suuureee buddy

go play with your full auto weapon from 1916 in the 1896 cowboy game

[astral moss]

Lol hating a weapon just because of its design is childish ngl.

Its not like its broken anymore.

[atomic coral]

Could easily just be them using a mouse macro to hold the left click for as few milliseconds as possible

[light sky]

weren't you hating on the shredder?

[astral moss]

Landing 2 bullet at 70m+ is wild af ngl.

[astral moss]

Yes cause it was broken.

[shell turret]

im glad the shreddar is scarce

[astral moss]

The design of the weapon is fine.

[shell turret]

i hope we dont get a ton of wacky guns

hunts mostly authentic armory is one of my fav things about it

[light sky]

yeah but you were hating on the rebalanced version without even seeing how it was fully

https://tenor.com/view/tekken-tekken8-king-intro-flex-gif-27703000

[astral moss]

[light sky]

On the other side, I wish we get more

[astral moss]

I think you got me, i might be childish as well.

[shell turret]

i hope hunt stays wild west themed with dieselpunk aspects

and not diesel punk with wild west aspects

[light sky]

hmmm

[shell turret]

i genuinly dont know where hunt should go though

[astral moss]

Spooky just roast me.

[shell turret]

with the current tech level theres not any new guns they could add that fill new niches without dragging the game more into fantasy or forward in time

[astral moss]

Shredder ?

And maybe the flamethrower we got after.

[shell turret]

shredder is a neat event thing that should stay event

and i think the flamethrower is a awful idea

[hasty wharf]

when the shredder was new it was definitely dragging the game more into fantasy. we got like, magic rune carvings lol

[astral moss]

For me shredder should be buyable after the event.

Like its balance now.

[hasty wharf]

doesnt it oneshot to arm from like 15m

[astral moss]

Let me test that.

[shell turret]

It absolutely should not be in the vanilla game

Balanced or not

[astral moss]

Lol why ?
If its balanced ?

[shell turret]

hunt has always been 80% authentic to the peroid

The game does not need to get more fantasy

[atomic coral]

It's weird west setting with necromancy...

[astral moss]

[shell turret]

and its always had authentic guns

[astral moss]

Not at 15m. @hasty wharf

[hasty wharf]

youre right my bad, its 14m

[astral moss]

13m for me.

[shell turret]

it really bugs me how people will use hunts fantay elements to justify adding wacky shit

hunts traits have always been fantasy

but 99% of the guns are real realistic or authentic

[astral moss]

The game is dark fantasy.

Like its not tarkov.

[shell turret]

the art style is a lot more naunced then a single descriptor lol

thats the beauty of hunt it perfectly meshes its voudou aspects and its realistic guns

even most of its fantasy guns make logical sense for the setting

like the uppercut just being a slightly larger colt walker that can use cartidges

[astral moss]

Yeah yeah bomb lance go brrrrrr

Add more fantasy gun.

[atomic coral]

Error Error. Does not Compute.

[astral moss]

https://tenor.com/view/kirby-fall-gif-19737042

[shell turret]

actually

on my point on fantasy weapons

[hasty wharf]

wait lmfao the shredder loses zero damage from first or second bounce? what the hell

[shell turret]

i think they shoudlve added a fantasy auto crossbow instead of the chukonu

even if it just did the same thing

i think a fictional drum fed crossbow would have fit hunt more then some random 1200s chinese weapon

[astral moss]

I just realise but the one shot torso is up to 40m.

[cosmic tide]

Heya, just wanted to ask if anyone outside of america has recived their vinyls, seems the shipment to denmark is taking a while

[hasty wharf]

thats weird, i just got 33m

[shadow dome]

Is the pay to play hunt chapter worth it?

[hasty wharf]

but also my upper torso and lower torso ranges were the same lemme double check

[dawn zinc]

My level 50 Ghost Face quest is coming along nicely

[hasty wharf]

bro i swear these sawblade hitboxes are fucked up, they're just going straight through dummies like a quarter of my shots

[dawn zinc]

Yeah someone said it's bugged

[astral moss]

Yes its bugged, some time it didn't shoot and eat your saw blade.

[hasty wharf]

i still see the sawblade fly out it just doesnt hit the dummy standing still lmfao

[astral moss]

But one shot at 40m is wild now that i saw it.

[hasty wharf]

I'm only seeing chest oneshots at 33m, 34 is giving me 149 with bleed

but also it has the same quirk that nitro does where lower torso doesnt get a reduced multiplier, so the lower torso range is the same

[grizzled iris]

https://tenor.com/view/wazappp-gif-16533663536355085528

[acoustic imp]

gee i sure do love the existance of the dolch p

it sure is a weapon that very good players use

[astral moss]

https://tenor.com/view/good-morning-its-funny-because-its-true-the-big-bang-theory-sheldon-cooper-gif-15176644

[shell turret]

the dolch p doesnt make sense to me

[astral moss]

Its the dolch but without weakness.

[acoustic imp]

dolch doesn't even have a real one to begin with

its just dolch for people who REALLY can't play tehgame

[shell turret]

”yea you know that really strong gun thats kinda balanced by how bouncy and odd its recoil is? Lets just fucking undo all of its bouncyness”

[shell turret]

wdym

[acoustic imp]

normal dolch has exactly one downside and thats bulletdrop off

which doesn't even matter because its a closerange weapon

[shell turret]

and its very bouncy and recoils odd

[astral moss]

Avto precision when ?

[shell turret]

its probably easy to overcome but i dont play the dolch a lot

[acoustic imp]

not really

[unique trail]

Missing all my shots today wtf this game

So frustrating

[mortal basin]

Just like me fr

[unique trail]

I just want to get my daily dark tribute and leave

[inland stump]

I hit a lot today idk

[unique trail]

Not having fun

[mortal basin]

Too much like me

[astral moss]

Advice: Hit more shot.

[unique trail]

Im raging

Its every game

[wide whale]

From dark tribute? 🤔

Oh, no its BP I just got multiple rewards. Derp

[inland stump]

what gun are u using

me for example i feel like i cant hit w conversion

and when i hit, i feel like it does no damage

[unique trail]

Vetterli

[wide whale]

oof

[unique trail]

Which i what i always use when I first prestige

[inland stump]

i stopped prestiging for a bit to enjoy variations

its too tedious to unlock one by one

[acoustic imp]

over a year after 2.0

reconnect still doesn't work half the time

[wide whale]

Doesnt progress with secondary targets? (Rot/Hell)

[inland stump]

mine worked after 3rd try

[unique trail]

Bs every single time

Tired of this

Got 1/2 my dark tribute to go

Think over 8 games we have 1 total kill

Never faced a boss

Never extracted

[dawn zinc]

Rotjaw and Hellborn are considered wild targets so if you killed one and it didn't progress, I guess not

[atomic coral]

OK, Crytek will now add Avto aperture

[wheat pilot]

avto swift

[wanton surge]

I already bought the game

[wise plume]

no

[shadow dome]

What can subsonic rounds penetrate through?

[raven rune]

same as normal, no?

[acoustic imp]

walls

[astral moss]

Subsonic can pen ?

[grizzled iris]

Sometimes I wonder how the boss monsters actually find their way inside compounds

[acoustic imp]

it says it right there "headshot through a wall"

[grizzled iris]

They’re too darn big for the doors

[acoustic imp]

wait

how did they do that

[raven rune]

maybe they grow up in there

mama scrapbeak laid an egg

[astral moss]

They pass by the big door.

[small flare]

which revolver has the lowest spread when fanning

[tranquil sail]

Normal conversion

[jaunty patio]

Pax Trueshot

[small flare]

thankies

[tranquil sail]

I lied

Pax trueshot

[mortal basin]

Trueshot has the tightest spread, but I'd say Converison is still the best. It has good spread and good fire rate

[small flare]

chain pistol is rough

[proven raptor]

Because you have higher odds of hitting someone due to the amount of bullets.

[unique trail]

Every single freaking time

So much bs today im sick of it

People without mics grabbing the token so then we dont know where oppo is

One teammate grabs token. I die so I spect them and they hold down the boost for 5 seconds, watching an enemy behind the wall. And then my teammate doesn't kill them

[astral moss]

https://tenor.com/view/wow-morning-ghost-coffee-wind-gif-5703918

[unique trail]

Then at the end we are going towards extract and same oppo by us and suprise suprise they are out of dark sight boost

I ask them why they hold it down and they said that's just how they like to do it

Im tired yall

[astral moss]

Count on team mate in big 2026.

[atomic coral]

Straight up tell them they're doing it wrong.

https://tenor.com/view/wrong-doctor-you-are-wrong-youre-wrong-gif-13935724

[unique trail]

I did and they found out exactly why

Daily dark tribute complete thank god now I dont have to play hunt anymore today

The frustrating thing about today was it was a lot of winnable battles

Just missing shots.

Like last game I was crouched by train and tracking and end up hitting the train part that sticks out

[astral moss]

[small flare]

i ❤️ team mates

nvm they suck

[twilit rivet]

Facts

Even when its a 3v1, they find ways to drop quick.

Staying muted throughout the game but will talk after dying.

Slowly becoming a play only with friends game.

Especially after they brought this way for a duo to queue up with a random third, looks like the duos usually only chat on their console party chat and not on game chat.

[small flare]

yerp

[twilit rivet]

Wipe 2 teams with sparks lrr and had a 3v1 of the last guy and the 2 guys manage to rush a slate user.

[main flint]

You can 1v2 and they will stay far like 60 meters watching because they're scared to push while the last guy revives them all 🔥

[crystal bay]

That was a fast turnaround

[woven cape]

I ❤️ YOU

[crystal bay]

[small flare]

they sucked that round

How can I get a cute fit gf with nice feet?

Whats it with a lot of bushwookies at the 6star level recently

I started running beetles recently and am seeing more teams just sit in bushes lol

[mighty lynx]

any of these recommandable?

[atomic coral]

Everything but Dragon Breath

[mystic mulch]

Even the DB is fine.

It's just the worst one.

Bomb Lonker DB is lethal up to about 9.5 meters?

[atomic coral]

I prefer Harpoon in one slot becasue it's retrievable for silent use on mobs. No stamina cost like melee.

[mystic mulch]

I ran Harpoons and DB when I was using Bomb lonker.

[mystic mulch]

Worked pretty well.

But steel ball or waxed frags is probably a better option than DB.

[atomic coral]

Frags for flushing people out, steel ball for rushing

Harpoon and steel ball both work for camping, but I prefer harpoon range. Plus bleed even when it doesn't kill them.

[mystic mulch]

I just liked the idea of ruining someone's chunks and killing them.

[mighty lynx]

appreciate the pointers!

[mystic mulch]

And the DB in this thing is probably the best DB on any weapon in the game.

[hollow seal]

I kinda want to do the road to P100

I got to prestige 3 and stopped

[tranquil sail]

Is there a reason to prestige

[crystal bay]

Cosmetics

If you like progressing in something as well

I enjoyed it as something to work towards

[mighty meadow]

no, just because you're always annoying

i have nothing against avto players

[mighty meadow]

bleach, anime, last part

[open edge]

Is there any reason to not pick slug? Is it also good for close combat

[tall canopy]

less ammo and need to aim close

[mighty meadow]

listen, listen, listen

[mystic mulch]

ammo economy basically.

[mighty meadow]

terminus levering slugs

trust me

[mystic mulch]

And you need to ADS.

[open edge]

So no hipfire in close combat?

[mystic mulch]

nope

[tall canopy]

2 muhc rng

[mystic mulch]

you get like the widest hipfire spread with slugs.

There's also apparently random bullet deviation with slugs? It didn't seem like it's much of a problem though.

[tall canopy]

yes

only if u try to shoot ppl on range

[mystic mulch]

It felt like it was less than a head's worth of deviation at 100 meters.

[tall canopy]

idk any exact numbers

[unique trail]

Oh

[mystic mulch]

In any case, I don't think it's much of a factor at distances where aiming for a head with shotgun sights is an actually reasonable thing to do.

[dense sleet]

its 20 plus meters for nearly all the barrels minus short

i havent tested short barrel deviation

[fiery belfry]

is anyone experiencing global server disconnect ?

[dense sleet]

nope

might just be your server instance

[fiery belfry]

the whole match my and my friends were having packet loss for more than 20 min

do we have news on servers ?

[dense sleet]

yea probably your server instance dying

its unf a little common

[dense sleet]

there would be a post here in this server if one was down or having major issues

[fiery belfry]

thx for your help!

[mystic mulch]

What do you mean?

[dense sleet]

from my testing i did of hte 2 barrels

[mystic mulch]

Like, for when the bullet deviation starts?

[dense sleet]

long barrels were 25meter for deviation whereas medium was 21ish

yea

thats when i noticed my slug not landing where i was aiming

i never got around to testing short barrel

[grizzled iris]

That’s much shorter than I expected

[mystic mulch]

Okay but I mean the actual bullet deviation doesn't seem to actually land especially far from point of aim?

[dense sleet]

now deviation doesnt mean your slug is guaranteed to miss, its when teh percentage chance starts of actual deviatoin

if that makes sense

[grizzled iris]

Sorry misclick

[mystic mulch]

I understand what you're saying but it doesn't make much sense to do it that way.

[dense sleet]

meters past those are when the % gets higher that your slug will miss, but being at 25 while using a long barrel doesnt mean your slug instatnly is a miss, it just starts having deviation. and farther ranges adds more aggressive deviation

[dense sleet]

tbh, it doesnt make sense for slugs to have deviation. they didnt really need them

its for sure an odd way to do it, and i could be wrong but i tested it for a good hour just taking 15 shots and logging headshots or misses, and stepping back 2m

rinse repeat

not a massive amount of data, but for something quick it wasnt bad and gave me a rough estimate

[mystic mulch]

I also just don't think the deviation could be especially strong from my personal testing.

[dense sleet]

its not crazy strong

like i mentioned being at range doesnt mean your slug is a guaranteed miss, its a percentage chance for the deviation to miss

its odd

if i really cared for a niche test, id use around 50 rounds at 5m intervals, and log it there

going up to nearly 50m, near nitro level

[mystic mulch]

I used an Auto5 and plinked at the bradley and craven targets.

[dense sleet]

i used an a5 and slate to do my testing

i for sure saw shots that looked like they shouldve hit, flat out miss

at the 25-30m range for long barrel

whether or not its a consistant rate i never tested, just something quick after i saw the deviation dev note for both the nitro and slugs, never tested nitro tho

[trail spade]

I tested the nitro at random and you can get both shots to miss in shooting range even when crosshair is dead on at like 30m

But idk if its accuarate

[mystic mulch]

I didn't notice any egregious misses once I had myself sighted on where to aim for a headshot at 117m. At that point though the sway was a bigger problem than bullet deviation would be.

[lucid zealot]

[frank brook]

how much hunt dollars do y'all have? just for curiosity

[lucid zealot]

470k

[tranquil sail]

28k

[frank brook]

and how long have you been playing?

[dense sleet]

11k, nearly ready to prestige

[lucid zealot]

july 2022

[frank brook]

okay fair enough

[lucid zealot]

1800h

[dense sleet]

i had 0 hunt bucks this prestige, but that was mostly on purpose and i have 6k hours

[grizzled iris]

86M iirc

[frank brook]

hearing y'all playtime answers my question of why are people so good in this game, theres like 4 players in total and those 4 have like a trillion hours (exageration of numbers for dramatical effect)

[dense sleet]

its an old game lmao

ive played since 2017, back in Beta

[grizzled iris]

Dunno how long I’ve been playing exactly, I think I started in mid 2020

Or late 2019

[frank brook]

yeah but normally people play for some time and then switch to something else, me included, i dont have that level of autism to focus on one single game for most of my life

I remember seeing a trailer just after beta. I was like

[lucid zealot]

Im playing only one pvp game and that's hunt, but i have a lot of single games

[dense sleet]

i have 5 digit hours in fucking R6S and i lasted c hecked i had well over 7k in Destiny(s)

[dense sleet]

i remember the fucking E3 trailer

and thinking this game is legit

the n i played it and there was like, 30 players xD

stuck with it though

[frank brook]

i mean i guess its because im at that age where i need the dopamine of "something new", maybe when i get older and have less time to play things i would start sticking to the same games

[paper anvil]

Having to do 1k dmg with bomb launcher/lance/bow/crossbow made me realize that all weapons in hunt can be good,besides maybe chu ko nu

[dense sleet]

i dont have as manu hours as some of hte old vets like me, hitting 10K plus hours. but i played other games and came back over the years and years of nothingness and only small updates

[frank brook]

depends on playtyle not stats

playstyle*

and i like that

[dense sleet]

hunt still holds the edge over most fps games nowadays tbh

regardless of its problems, this game has the pvp down so fucking well

[frank brook]

i agree, shit like arc raiders made me bored after a bit

even tho hunt showdown is repetitive, its enjoyable

[dense sleet]

i have 10k hours in R6S and i get bored in that game but i also played it semi pro

[next mesa]

With all the other FPS games out there, Hunt's PvP has a unique feel to it.

[paper anvil]

Yeah but dang i thought bomb launcher was ass but seeing how well shootings go with it..great weapon

Like in 1 shot exchanges you usually win

[lucid zealot]

Yeah i agree with you, events are amazing in this game, for example cs go have no events, events in Apex Legends is like no event

[dense sleet]

i hate AR, i regret wasting money on it but i got about 60 hours out of it before i hit the point of straightboredom

[frank brook]

yeah i spent max 450 hours on that game and dropped it

[hasty wharf]

bomb launcher is good, better than the lance even if you disregard medium vs large slot

[paper anvil]

Hunt has that constant "paranoic" gameplay

[grizzled iris]

I kinda wonder what will happen when the time comes for no more new events

[dense sleet]

eh i wouldnt go that far. the lance has the melee part of it as backup, but the launcher is pretty good

[grizzled iris]

Are scarce weapons here to stay?

[frank brook]

also bro how much time have you been playing games and how much free time have you had to play that many hours all those different games

[dense sleet]

the harpoon is amazing

[frank brook]

cuz holy shit

[dense sleet]

i mean, not so much anymore but i played it a lot as a kid with no friends xD

i work 85+ hour weeks now, between 2 jobs

[grizzled iris]

damn son

[frank brook]

are we talking about 5 years ago or like 10, you dont have to answer this but is just to get the picture od the whole thing

[paper anvil]

I don't think that will happen

[dense sleet]

for what? when i put in all the hours?

[frank brook]

no, is cuz i think you know, maybe 10k hours on seige when you had free time is more understandable yk

[dense sleet]

im 25, and this was mainly when i was 14-19 and didnt have any plans or a job, so i played games and made that as an income. did streaming fora while and that was cool and successful enough, but i stopped when i made me hate gaming. then i did R6 semi pro and that was between release of R6 and year 6 of R6S

[frank brook]

but with a job, you either dont sleep or didnt waste a second

[frank brook]

ohhh so you went full pro on the things, yeah that explains a lot

im just a bum ass that plays to avoid responsabilities so i think that explains the difference

[dense sleet]

it helps i am literally an insomniac and was diagnosed 12 years ago with acute insomnia that developed into severe. i would only get about 30mins of sleep most nights

[dense sleet]

i was that for a few years, but the past 4 years ive gotten some hobbies and just do gaming as a hobby, so i slowed down my hours quite heavily.

everyone is in their own pace at life, no place for me to judge. better your situation imo than me hating myself bc i work so many hours and still dont feel fullfilled finacially

[frank brook]

i mean isnt your brain fried after all those years?

[dense sleet]

according ot my brain studies over the years, no

my doctor is bewildered everytime i tell her my hours, since i have to log my sleep habits for her

[frank brook]

so you're a real life superhero basically

[dense sleet]

its gotten better over the years, im at around 1-2 hours, 3 hours on a good night. but nowhere near as much as a normal person

[dense sleet]

nothing super about it

trust me

mind you my brain isnt fried, but that doesnt mean that i dont ruin myself in other ways. mentally and physcially im completely shot in plenty of aspects

i got let go at my last construction job bc i would frequently enough straight up pass out standing up, or even while using power tools while on the job, major safety hazard for myself and my crew, so they fired me. completely fair. now i build firetrucks during the week and i work at a gas station on the weekend

[frank brook]

well, doesnt matter how much i seek comfort, in 1 year, well, 1 month actually will have to start doing shit i dont like to not end up with diabetes and no diploma, so yeah, had quite some years of enjoying myself, sastisfying myself will never be possible so my only option is to change my whole life

[frank brook]

yeah i must imagine

[frank brook]

i mean at some point you'll manage to build a "base" (to call it something) so you could start taking things slowler dont you think? by base i mean a goal of ammount of money ofc

[dense sleet]

it be like that, i had a moment like that when i hit around 21 and i just clicked into straight work and better myself mode. lost weight and went to the gym, tried to fix my sleep enough as much as i could and just do stupid adult kid things. i just got half an arm sleeve and i plan on getting the remainder of my arm done and my other arm into my neck done this year hopefully

[dense sleet]

im just working so much to pay off bills. my car and my new motorcycle mainly. then as i mentioned ^ stupid adult things like tattoos and my knives that i collect

[frank brook]

at least your life is going in a good direction, its refreshing hearing some good news after all the doomed people i talk to normally

[dense sleet]

good is jsut what im telling you

[frank brook]

i mean ofc not all is rainbow and sunshine, i get that

[dense sleet]

whole other side i dont need to doom and gloom about with a guy on the internet with

[frank brook]

fair enough

at least you're surviving and not taking a bunch of pills in the middle of the night trying to "take a break" iykim

liek some other people i know

[dense sleet]

i do t hat with alcohol instead

[frank brook]

same, except i just do it for the fun of it and not to drown my problems

[dense sleet]

yea i do it to drown

[frank brook]

this comment i just made feels like a flex, trust me i didnt intend it like that

[dense sleet]

i didnt take it that way dw

[frank brook]

oopsie

[heavy finch]

Driking alone is alchoholism no?

[frank brook]

i just noticed this is general

[frank brook]

nah is just chilling, i do that a lot

drinking every day,from sunrise to the sunset its alcoholism

[dense sleet]

if it becomes an everynight thing, or a regular thing. i would base it that personally

[heavy finch]

i dont enjoy alchohol. so i only touch it when its to get wasted in company. idk how you people like the taste.

[dense sleet]

i dont have friends so i always drink alone xD

[frank brook]

nobody drinks for the taste brotha

[dense sleet]

i like hte funny fuzzies afterwards that makes things easier to forget for the time being

although, i do make a pretty tasty cocktail

[frank brook]

same

[frank brook]

i just mix a whole small bottle of vodka with a whole can of white redbull, best shit ever

[heavy finch]

im stone cold sober every day always. 30 years of pure awareness. has sharpened my senses to make me the derringer sniper

[frank brook]

i cant handle whiskey

[dense sleet]

for new years i made some Vanilla Whiskey Ice Cream and put some Dark choco chips into it, and mixed it with Jameson and some Root Beer. had about 7 pints of that

[heavy finch]

i drink fake whiskey. fireball.

[dense sleet]

still got to work at 5am just fine

[frank brook]

i mean its good enough you didnt have any problem to end up drinking

[royal cloak]

Why?

[frank brook]

holy shit i wanna try that now

[dense sleet]

absolutely fire

[heavy finch]

i dont like alchohol and its a high percentage without burning the throat too much

so its passable as a shot

[dense sleet]

drink rum, its quite easy on the throat imo

[frank brook]

drink beer then

[heavy finch]

Ew beer

[frank brook]

also, yeah

[dense sleet]

beer tastes like shit, even IPAs

[frank brook]

whaaaat, i expected this comment form anyone except you

i feel betrayed a bit💔

[dense sleet]

i will FUCK UP some mead though, i get a gallon or 2 of a Blueberry Mead from RenFest everyyear

[heavy finch]

beer tastes like puke

every time ive puked beer has been involved. so now beer instantly makes me taste puke

[dense sleet]

i drink beers when i feel like i dont wanna be completely plastered in an hour, which is usually get togethers or campfires i sometimes get invited too

but normally i avoid it, not good

would rather just drink something straight

[heavy finch]

i drink beers because beer pong doesnt come with sommersby or something. fk beer.

[dense sleet]

Vodka Pong changes a man

[frank brook]

beer is kinda like black coffee, its an acquired taste, at the start it will always taste like shit, after a while, your tongue gets used to it and only picks up the good part of it, its starts feeling more like a soda than alcohol

[dense sleet]

let me tell you

[frank brook]

oh so you do drink it

i thought you didnt touch it at all

[dense sleet]

not if i have a choice i try not to

[heavy finch]

but do you guys drink daily ?

[dense sleet]

ya

usually most nights

[heavy finch]

is your aim in games horrible?

[dense sleet]

i am outright an alcoholic

[dense sleet]

i wouldnt say im the best but im def better than most people

[heavy finch]

has it affected you

[pulsar vortex]

Padarius is living proof you can play this game shit faced and still destroy

[frank brook]

nope, im too lazy to go buy stuff

[heavy finch]

anyway they just did a study that shows that reel spamming teenagers are 5x damage to their brain compared to heavy drinkers. so theres that.

[heavy finch]

who?

[pulsar vortex]

the best hunt streamer

[dense sleet]

there are man yways to fry your brain, lack of sleep for one doesnt help :3 now add drinking and its a hell of a combo

[heavy finch]

no idea

[frank brook]

okay so according to your point im more fucked up than an alcoholic

makes sense

[dense sleet]

padarius is not the best

not by a mile

he is a great player, but he is not the best

[heavy finch]

you watch alot of reels?

[pulsar vortex]

🤓

[dense sleet]

i mean thats fine lol

[frank brook]

whenever im not doing something i instantly go to watch reels or tiktok

i dont want to, but its automatic

[heavy finch]

Yea stop doing that.

[dense sleet]

if it makes it more impressive. i also play instruments quite often. the Drums and Guitar mainly and learning the bass the past couple of years

[frank brook]

i know trust

[dawn zinc]

That padarius dude got sent to the shadow realm by shroud during the sponsored stream lol

[heavy finch]

i used extensions to disable shorts on youtube.

[sullen tundra]

whats up with the corny ass thumbs up animation with the new weapon inspections?

[frank brook]

whenever i open youtube it goes straight to yt shorts and i get distracted by some movie and end up watching it for an hour

[dense sleet]

that was so fucking funny to see him absolutely slam padarius xD

[frank brook]

and forget what i was gonna do

[heavy finch]

im watching a video with him now. he seems pretty bad?... or not "the best"

[frank brook]

like i said, a super human

[heavy finch]

just disable it with an extension

[dense sleet]

and like i said, aint nothing super about it xD pure unadulterated -tism, which i dont have

but i have nothing else to call it xD

[frank brook]

i just noticed i made a reference https://open.spotify.com/intl-it/track/17mQUYBF9BVr4xZDHnQc0y?si=eede1a47fe504987

[heavy finch]

where can i see that?

[fluid temple]

anyone know how to stop the rubber banding and ping spikes, i only get it in this game for som reason

[frank brook]

maybe you're on the wrong server?

[heavy finch]

everyone does. its not exclusively you. so you cant fix it

[dense sleet]

its just a server thing, no way to fix.

i fixed the clips now, so no more stutter, but i love the celebration scream after the bonk

[fluid temple]

damn it

[dense sleet]

you could be at 7 ping and still get packet loss spikes and rubber banding

[heavy finch]

there be stutters.
