hunt-general

[raven totem]

oof

[remote moss]

its the fact that you can miss with the first, then keep firing to create a chain explosion that catches them with two or three explosives

[thin fable]

yep, if you move your crosshair fast enough you can box them in too

[remote moss]

its technically broken, but the places where you can actually pull that off are limited and relies on high ground and sheer lack of cover

much less frustrating to fight than frag bow was

[raven totem]

if you're attacking a disabled center

[thin fable]

Its been good for me taking out people who have the high ground in compounds

and through holes

[sage belfry]

So is the dark satchel bugged? someone placed one like 5m from me and it had 0 audio lol

[remote moss]

its a good punish

[remote moss]

It's a feature.

the audio still blends into the background, especially with background noise like a nearby fire

[dense sleet]

it doesnt have any audio

[raven totem]

crytek lowered the sound on it

[dense sleet]

i mean it does

but its very quiet now

you can stand on the other side of a window and just not hear it

boom

[remote moss]

you should keep track of hunt content creators, theyre placing satchel traps on bodies for a funny double kill or kill on necro

[raven totem]

shot meta protects us

[remote moss]

fr

[whole furnace]

D R U G S

[fleet arrow]

I call it my toe tickler loadout

[remote moss]

shot meta means im not afraid to push because i dont have to worry about dying to an out of position frag

[raven totem]

from many horrors of the consumable selection

[remote moss]

lets bring back concertina bomb meta

teammate dies? have no fear, cover is here

[thin fable]

ive been getting good concertina bomb kills lately

nobody expects you to throw it at them directly

[raven totem]

concertain bomb is so under utilized, damn shame

untill you're entire enemy teamhas spitzer then you feel clowned but you know.

[remote moss]

shot meta as always. stifle all creativity, limit to semi auto and long ammo. fun

[thin fable]

im also a jerk and throw them in the center of the circus blocking the troupes

[raven totem]

with out massive massive reworks shot meta patches a lot of hunts problems frankly

[dense sleet]

yo 16 bucks for like 6 DLCs is quite a nasty steal wtf

this Humble Bundle is a crazy deal

[raven totem]

hunt dlc sales are wild, they'll go on sale, you can buy the bundles on sale and then get the bundle discount as well.

[remote moss]

imagine they adjust consumable slots without reworking anything, fr fr

[raven totem]

last I looked you can get most dlc for like 3$ a pop

[remote moss]

what the fuck

[thin fable]

Crytek likes their DLC but they do good sales for them

[raven totem]

I'm interested in how much this will really change things other than you can't cont on, oh they used chokes and a flair, so there for they don't have ringer

[near oracle]

[raven totem]

ya go look at the bundles of dlc, while all on slae, it all stacks

[remote moss]

oh wait, its probably cause its all the old stuff

yeah, i usually look at the new dlcs that dont get good deals

[raven totem]

well I mean they're new dlcs, makes sense

[remote moss]

back in my day

they used to be 4 dollars

the day they came out!

[raven totem]

fur dur fur fur der er

you when do we get our boy black coat night seer back?

[dense sleet]

poor baldie

[raven totem]

a year and a half missing now

iconic t3s, we're a year and a half out now.

[half ruin]

I just want bayou Luigi back

[mossy citrus]

yo guys how do i change my user profile thing is it new? Its like a card. But other peoples ones look different / show different info

[remote moss]

go into career

[prime lake]

how do burning traits and rare traits work
?

[quiet hinge]

burn traits like necromancer(revive self if solo, revive teammates if on a team) is used in dark sight at a certain range of the dead teammate and by holding mouse 1. Once they are revived, necromancer is removed
Rampage will be consumed if you kill a hunter while you have taken any sort of damage, ie missing bars, or even just missing health and it will fully heal you
relentless will be consumed if you die, and you'll ress without missing a bar, though some of that bar will be temporarily burnt
Remedy is used on trait spurs, by going in dark sight and holding mouse 1 and once it finishes, it will fully restore health to all teammates regardless of range

death cheat will be consumed if all your teammates die, and you die, and you will retain the hunter will all your levels and traits, but will need to rebuy equipment and restore whatever bars you lost

[prime lake]

and can i renew it when i get more points in the same hunter?

[quiet hinge]

necromancer yes

[prime lake]

and about rare traits?

can i only get one at lvl 50 or something like that

[quiet hinge]

rare traits like rampage, relentless, remedy, shadow, death cheat, shadow leap all have a chance of dropping off enemies such as meatheads, bears (ursa), scrapbeak, or even found out in the wild. You can only get one of each, so you could have Rampage, Remedy, Death cheat, shadow, shadow leap, etc all on one hunter

most people keep two slots open for shadow and death cheat

[quiet hinge]

though if you find death cheat you can always ask a teammate if you can kill him so you can burn your necromancer on them to get it

[prime lake]

so drop on "elite" enemies

got it

[quiet hinge]

ye

[quiet hinge]

but during events, such as this one, they can commonly be found in towers

at the cost of pledge points

rampage costs 1, shadowleap costs 1, relentless costs 2, remedy costs 2, shadow costs 2, deathcheat costs 3

and necromancer costs 1

you can see if theres traits in towers by going into darksight. The highlight on the ground of the tower is a trait, and on the wall is either an exp evelope or four shot boon

sometimes the towers have nothing

[prime lake]

will look forward for that stuff

i should get some BBs and expand my hunters limit to grind free traits and money on em

[quiet hinge]

that's certainly an option, having more hunter slots will definitely allow you to abuse the dark tribute sometimes awarding 2 upgrade points to the whole roster

allowing a level one hunter to have all the traits you desire

[sage belfry]

Thoughts on flame rifle? it feels kinda mid

[normal kayak]

surprisingly balanced

[quiet hinge]

it's definitely underwhelming

[mossy citrus]

is berthier good for pvp

[quiet hinge]

absolutely lol

[sage belfry]

Flame rifle seems to always disapoint me

[mossy citrus]

nice what pairs well with it u think

officer?

[quiet hinge]

with or without quartermaster?

[sage belfry]

Either a shotgun one shots before the flame rifle deals enough to kill or it falls so hard it misses

[mossy citrus]

without

unless qm makes it that much better

[quiet hinge]

qm makes it better you could say, but without hand crossbow, officer, lemat for close range shotgun are all fine

with qm bornheim match is great with it, medium shotguns such as the specter also pair well with it, even the bow

[mossy citrus]

cool thanks man

[prime lake]

how much slots do you start with normally, 5? or do i have 5 bcs i got 5 dlcs

[quiet hinge]

np, when i run a hand crossbow with it i'll run a quad derringer to finish off kills. The ammo split i take is usually spitzer/incen in that order

[quiet hinge]

I'm sorry it's been too long for me to be able to answer that question, i believe it should say a number on the recruit screen for you

[signal cliff]

5 sounds right

[quiet hinge]

you can also get away without bullet grubber with the berthier by switching the ammo types

[tepid drum]

crytek let me buy the shredder and my life is yours 🙏 then you can sell me shredder skins

[tepid drum]

It's so weird that you can't reload without losing ammo otherwise

[quiet hinge]

always wait until you have one bullet left to switch the ammo though, as switching ammo with two in the clip vs one is much slower

[quiet hinge]

yeah I think thats why not many people like it, there's a bit of a learning curve to it i guess when it comes to ammo count and managing your ammo

for example if you take incen/spitzer, you will have 12 incen shots and 6 spitzer

but if you take spitzer/incen you'll have 9 for each

[hearty geode]

I have pissed off a sour european

[short halo]

That's why you have to check the Best By date
Once they go sour you have to throw them out

[hearty geode]

He's still going

[quiet hinge]

probably cause the names are visible in the screenshot, which could be seen as promoting harassing the individual

I believe it may be the same rules as the subreddit, as you're not allowed to post names on their either

[whole furnace]

Balanced and people needs to stop trying to use it like a shotgun

[prime lake]

man im crying
all the negative reviews on the game are from 2019 😭

atleast the ones in spanish

[whole furnace]

To be fair and balanced, this game have gone thru some VERY rough times

[mossy citrus]

are snipers the new meta?

[whole furnace]

Naw

[molten pilot]

Anyone know why when I uncap or cap my FPS above 60 my game constantly have fps drop random time like it drop to zero almost then climb back up make my whole screen lag for a second I updated my driver and my pc give 70+ fps fine even reach 90 sometime

[whole furnace]

First off, what are your PC specs?

[molten pilot]

Rtx 2070 32gb vram core i7 gen 9th I have game in external ssd and I have extra 20gb virtual memory setted

[lusty tartan]

Hey i just killed 3 people and 2 of them stood up and killed me and my squad cheating or a perk idk about?

im new

or 3 solo players teaming?

[molten pilot]

Narcomancy perk you can revive your team from a distance

[whole furnace]

Are you sure your RTX2070 has 32gb VRAM?`

[lusty tartan]

yea but i killed all 3

big clutch

[whole furnace]

Hey are you still in the menu?

[lusty tartan]

then they stood up and rushed me

yes

[whole furnace]

Go to last match and take a screenshot of the team overview.

@lusty tartan ^

[lusty tartan]

how if i may ask?

[molten pilot]

I added extra 16gbram to the pc

[lusty tartan]

i see

[whole furnace]

I am sure you cannot add extra VRAM

RAM sure

[whole furnace]

just a sec

[molten pilot]

Yes ram

[whole furnace]

Think it is G press

[prime lake]

what special ammo do i put in a Lemat

[prime lake]

dragonbreath sounds fun

[whole furnace]

That is two different things :)
Your GPU itself have VRAM and the your PC has RAM too.

[prime lake]

video ram

gpu and cpu

most cards barely have 16vram

[whole furnace]

By the looks of it it seems like you got killed by the last 3rd on the team :)

[prime lake]

or 12

[lusty tartan]

yea idk how i didnt kill him

[whole furnace]

Happens :)

[molten pilot]

But why is my fps dip like that?

[whole furnace]

I prefere to run FMJ + Buckshot :)

[lusty tartan]

ty sir

[molten pilot]

It run stable 80 then suddenly dip and go back up to 80 every now and then

[whole furnace]

My best guess bc your GPU is struggling due to lack of VRAM, try set the VRAM usage to 80% in the hunt settings :)

[prime lake]

what is slug even for

[molten pilot]

Ok I’ll try it

[whole furnace]

To disappoint you.
Jokes aside, on paper it gives you better wall-pen and can 1-tap to the upper chest further out.
But due to some bad balance atm, slugs are kinda worthless meme

[prime lake]

ough

and fmj is for shooting thru some cover types?

[whole furnace]

Basically all cover types lol

And the loss of MV is minor on a revolver like the LeMat

[prime lake]

mv?

[whole furnace]

muzzle velocity, how fast bullets flies

[tacit mango]

MV is really only a concern for

Marksman+

[normal kayak]

inshallah i will not be baited

[prime lake]

aight

[tacit mango]

For sure got reported for that one

[whole furnace]

Clash a solo 6 star gives me some... erhm... lesser experienced opponents.

[fluid obsidian]

And can headshot

[twilit rivet]

What is with the frequency of rain and rainy fog maps. The last 5 games have just been this 🤦‍♂️

[inland stump]

wdym

he was doing the same thing you were doing man 😭

[short halo]

Nah, opponent was out in the open with no cover

[whole furnace]

crouch walking out in the open is something lower skilled players does.

[half ruin]

holy shit i finally found one

[raven totem]

Excuse me?

[wintry ice]

poor fella (i need like 10 more rifts for my last achievement)

[raven totem]

Slugs are far from worthless, just depends on the gun if they'll bring tangible value

[atomic coral]

Usually happens when it has to load assets for the next compound

[upbeat lark]

i dont really use slugs but my frend do on the romero

he wipes

[raven totem]

Ironically Romero isn't on my list of slug guns but more power to him

[mortal basin]

I just bring slugs to go for headshots with them tbh

[steep narwhal]

i've a friend who loves alamo slugs katana

i didnt play them for a long time but they slap on most of the shotguns tbh

[upbeat lark]

I found a crown with slugs once

I can't hit a thing

[tacit mango]

Some people are actually idiots

[tacit mango]

Question

Did that game just happen?

[whole furnace]

Couple of hours ago

[whole furnace]

Such as?

[mortal basin]

Fun

!

[wintry ice]

alright, i finally decided to put in the work for soul survivor and now i've 100% the achievements for this game. next stop: p100

[raven rune]

just a friendly reminder that this is the best hunt trailer ever made https://youtu.be/bV56-FEGtx0

[safe quest]

Yo anybody wanna play?

[random nimbus]

[lament bison]

Please make all team killers lose MMR. Some intentionally kill every single game 🙁

[fathom shale]

Why should they lose MMR for that?

Just confused what the benefit of making them team kill lower MMR players instead is

[mystic mulch]

Sounds like some people would teamkill on purpose to drop mmr.

[fathom shale]

That too

Just report them and they get banned eventually

[inland stump]

to fix an issue, create a bigger one lmao

[molten pilot]

Bro hit the Peter griffin pose

[remote moss]

i was wondering why everyone was just hiding like a

forgot i was on eu servers

wouldve expected the bush rat team

and wouldnt have wasted ammo memeing and just farmed these mosin shotgun rats hiding in forests cause they lose every real engagement

ahhh two were five stars, that explains the playstyle

just lost cause i was worse fr

[normal kayak]

i need more bullets i neeed more bullets

[inland stump]

someone really wanted to kill bro

[soft marten]

Bruh i yesterday played with a friend who can finally play hunt properly again, and only got 1 kill if anything needless to say my kdr still looks like it does always xd

[soft marten]

41 should be enough

[normal kayak]

no

[soft marten]

Do share

[half ruin]

whar

I just found the elusive golden cash register

[soft marten]

i know

And i want my share

[half ruin]

idk I found that one at lockbay

[soft marten]

Damn

[half ruin]

but they're random

[soft marten]

Also rare

[soft marten]

Yes, no more bullets for you

[raven totem]

Cnk first and foremost as prime example, rival hc rounds it helps a great chunk, big rival it starts to become equaled out

And slugs suck at wallbangs BTW, so no they don't really help pen

But have depending on the gun , I think cnk two taps at 48m?

[remote moss]

probs, just gotta worry about the inaccuracy making you hit limbs

EU gameplay is such nasty shit. i just walk in the open and hs people because their movement is ass, then die because i have no info to a rat or get body camped

[raven totem]

I still play slugs, still the best choice for a few, just not every shotgun anymore

[remote moss]

it is? thought buckshot was the best overall for all nowadays

[raven totem]

Again depends on gun

[remote moss]

yeah tell me a better one with slugs

[raven totem]

Cnk

Ggwp

[remote moss]

i despise your actions

p fair though

[raven totem]

Lol

[remote moss]

berthier spitzer

man, mosin and lebel spitzer outclass it so hard

its the closest to a reasonable spitzer weapon that doesnt rely on bullshit, very nice for headclicks

[dusky spoke]

Get more ammo too

[remote moss]

oh damn really? havent tested it with ammo box or special boxes yet

rip berthier

[dusky spoke]

max ammo count I mean

When gunrunner is a thing I like to run it with avto because im toxic

or, when I want to play lebel spitzer I have a berthier as a secondary just for more ammo or using if lebel is empty

[karmic canopy]

Any suggestions on what dlc is good to buy?

[raven totem]

What ever you think looks cool

It's all just skins

[normal kayak]

go to store, go to hunters, look at all hunters, and pick the one you like the most

[remote moss]

ok buddy

id rather fight avto over a bad mosin player always swapping to crown and king slugs to get kills

[dusky spoke]

avto aint all that anymore anyway, it just makes the insta headshot on peek feel slightly more embarrassing

[normal kayak]

i go in

i floor 4 and 5 stars

game sees this

keep him in 3 star

?!

i just witnessed my teammate try to kiss the enemy

[remote moss]

i mean, avto still goes hard

oh hey, its basically a 5 shot gun that can two shot anyone! just a better flame gun fr fr

[half ruin]

Why do people shit on the mako

Yeah it has basically negative reserve ammo but having the benefits of both lever guns and long ammo slaps

[upbeat lark]

it looks cool so i like to use it

[remote moss]

mosin and krag exist, thats about it

[upbeat lark]

its levering capability is shit too to be fair

[remote moss]

same reason 1865 carbine outclasses martini in most situations

no ones gonna mention it, carbine doesnt exist as far as theyre concerned

[raven rune]

i hate that you made me realize this

[remote moss]

deserved

[jaunty patio]

For the longest time the Mako had a slower swap speed compared to all other rifles, so that along with the sights meant that it was poorly received as a long ammo rifle. That first impression is hard to shake.
Explosive levering is sometimes a fun meme though.

[remote moss]

anyway, people unused to low mv dont use carbine cause its base mv is 340 compared to martini 400

its really not that hard to account for, but its still a consistency thing

literally just fmj compact speeds

[mild flower]

Unless you use fmj on the carbine

[half ruin]

So is FMJ levering

Pair it with an uppercut for max wall bang gambling

[remote moss]

fmj carbine works fine

people crutch too much on high mv, low mv is easy to lead. if you could record how people missed, most always and i mean ALWAYS overlead

[upbeat lark]

you arent gonna hit shots above 90m but why would you anyway with the carbine

it shine the brightest at compound distance scirmish

[mortal basin]

Just stiff competition for it. It's the worst of the best

[high shell]

💀

[mortal basin]

Still long ammo, so still good, Mosin/Lebel/Krag just far better

[high shell]

the worst part of waking up early and playing soul survivor is the sweatlords who didn't sleep yet

unemployment masters again at its peak

[half ruin]

I think most of high MMR is unemployment masters

[twilit rivet]

So satisfying to take down a trio using beetles in clash

Two of them in beetle view exited when i was pushing on them 😆😆

[high shell]

never fails

[high shell]

indeed

[twilit rivet]

Yup, theyre on early during the day

[high shell]

he had 6k hours on cs2 and 3k hours on hunt

[twilit rivet]

Trios of them too

[high shell]

buddy only knows sunset via games

like if they were starting their gaming journey instead of job journey

[half ruin]

If anyone looks at my steam profile they’d probably think I’m the unemployment king

But I just have a horrible habit of leaving games open

[high shell]

yeah i do that sometimes so is understandable

but

well, you can't fake 6k hours on cs

or 3k on hunt

[half ruin]

Yeah

It’s most prevalent in TF2 because I used to just afk on trade servers

[trim dove]

Is getting LuLu rare

[half ruin]

Ig

Its an “old” twitch drop skin and people really want her

Because goon: showdown 1896

[remote moss]

nah, most are bad but compensate with a boring hide and wait playstyle

[jaunty patio]

You've got a 1 in 7 chance of getting her from any Twitch Drop if you don't have any Twitch Drop hunters yet and TDs happen maybe 5 times a year.

[remote moss]

once you get enough experience, winning in 6 star is more of a chore because of boring rat plays than anything else

[jaunty patio]

Or maybe it'll stay 1 in 6 and Headtaker will always be a twitch sub hunter instead

[remote moss]

so i really like crutching on semi auto to farm these people, instead of wasting my time

[trim dove]

Oh real nice then but yeah i got it from drops

[normal kayak]

are twitch drops on a schedule or are they just random

[trim dove]

& the backround card too

[half ruin]

I thought they were like a monthly thing

[jaunty patio]

They're more or less on a schedule you can expect, they happen about once a season but sometimes two will happen soon after each other, like June/August or October/December. The next one is likely in February to coincide with Hunt's 8th anniversary.

[normal kayak]

alright thank you

[half ruin]

Damn hunt be kinda old

[trim dove]

I have a bug too , like i have a legendary sniper and the shotgun with the blade legendary too Equipped on one hunter but on any other classes i cant equip them because i need to « unlock » both lmao

So i keep alice with this bugged class

[normal kayak]

my weeklies last week were so fucking easy i did them without realising i had new weeklies

[half ruin]

I bought the game in 2018 because I saw a YouTube video about it and had no idea what an extraction shooter was

[jaunty patio]

Nice, I got roped into it back in 2020 with friends, only bought it cause I had heard of Crytek's reputation for graphics. And then they abandoned me two weeks later

[half ruin]

I played on and off for a little bit

[normal kayak]

how does pledging my hunter to a troupe work

[half ruin]

Only came back to the game in like October

[normal kayak]

is it just like i go get the trait for a troupe and thats it

[half ruin]

Last played date before I reinstalled it was 2020 lmao

[distant wraith]

Pick any of the traits from the middle of the circus (e.g. crackshot, bruiser, etc)

[jaunty patio]

Yup, it's only called pledging because of the now defunct pact/troupe system where you used to be locked into your choice on that hunter

[normal kayak]

okay thank you

[high shell]

bruh the same guy in soul survivor again is waiting for me to take the last clue

how sweat you have to be

disgusting ah unemployed

[left orbit]

ye i remember buying the game around that time, couldn’t launch into any game but i think it was because low player count, got it refunded, and bought it back again in 2023 after COMPLETELY forgetting about it XD

[remote moss]

man im salty

first spawnfight with three teams in months and i insta die to crossbow cause im trying to peek the open against bushes like a dumbass

lol

i dont respect their aim because i dont have to, but who could expect the one tap weapon at 35m

[soft marten]

I never heard of a Hunter called LuLu

[cunning harness]

Hi chat

Is crossbow good or awful

[left orbit]

the xbow especially with steel bolts can be really annoying with this yeah. add scoped xbow on it… it’s not a very popular weapon fortunately

[gilded oxide]

best shot gun in the game

[left orbit]

when i play xbow it’s frikkin ez kills

[soft marten]

Oh nvm i know Lulu

Now that i googled her

[remote moss]

It is the #1 long ranged angle holding one tap gun atm. nitro is strong but takes too much aim and has bad sights. always use steel bolt on crossbow

bow is the #2 long range angle holding one tap at like 25m weapon

then nitro obv #3 cause the cons and high cost

[soft marten]

Crossbow is a neat weapon yes, should try playing it more often

If only i wasn't ass at pvp

[left orbit]

there is a dood roaming the bayou, i played weeks ago with him, and also just yesterday.

bro had 4 kills with nitro, didn’t miss a single bullet. absolute chad.

but agreed that nitro is juts annoying to work with, xbow in comparison is just … much more efficient as you don’t have so much of a learning curve

especially with friggin steel bolts

[twilit rivet]

Are people deranking on purpose? I see ppl who play really well with 2kd on console and theyve 5.5 million bounty, 350 maxed out hunters and are 4star mmr. They play like 6stars too.
Meanwhile im stuck in 6star while less than 500k bounty.

How are they doing this

Looks like there's some flaw

[left orbit]

they just have too much time on their hands and die on purpose

[twilit rivet]

Jeez

Crazy

Wonder how many times they got to die to manipulate the mmr

[left orbit]

well coughs not that much. 3-4 hours in solo and maybe 2 hours in duo/trio

[deep snow]

A lot ahah

Maybe idk 30 die without kills

[left orbit]

but clearly if you just have like 1h to play you wouldn’t do that basically

[twilit rivet]

No way i would do that

[left orbit]

ye i’m telling you: too much time on their hands.
like i had at some point to experiment 😬

[shadow sierra]

man i was reminded of this thing i did 3 years ago lol

[left orbit]

(though i’m really back to 4-5 stars now because i SHUUUCCKSS)

[left orbit]

is this running natively or streaming?

[shadow sierra]

streaming lol

on a launch model switch

was kinda funny

[trim dove]

Lmao

[left orbit]

ah yeah i could tell because of the horrendous latency between input and feedback 😂

[trim dove]

Me neither until i got her

[remote moss]

fr, obnoxious as hell

[shadow sierra]

oh yeah it was terrible

[left orbit]

was it a native app or something custom made?

[normal kayak]

someone just missed an entire fire bomb on my body

[shadow sierra]

genuinely dont remember, it was 3 years ago

its weird that 2023 was 3 years ago

[left orbit]

ye
we all get older

what doesn’t get old though is playing hunt ❤️

[shadow sierra]

id love to but im housesitting for a month and a bit and the internet here is no good

100-150 ping in most games 😔

[left orbit]

oh boi i’ve played with people on LFG with data (phone) connection LMFAO

[shadow sierra]

incredible

[left orbit]

bro was landing headshots with time travel capabilities

[normal kayak]

i have a burning hatred for that skin so much

it looks so stupid

genuinely farmed this guy because everytime he tries to snipe i see his big fat bald head with a target painted on it

[soft marten]

Wait a bloody second or two is that the bald clown ?

[soft marten]

Ain't no way bro's playing hunt on the switch

[left orbit]

i have burning hatred for maynard silenced snipers, no matter the skin

[soft marten]

Fair i guess

[left orbit]

btw should i upgrade my headset to a DT770/DT770Pro/DT990/DT990Pro ? question been asked so many times but i’m not sure it will be such an upgrade from my Sony XM5

[soft marten]

I have a burning hatred for, uh... imulators

Yes i hate them, idc if they only want love and some hugs i want them all dead

[left orbit]

the immo has same range as katana slash

it’s fkin slenderman with rotary shoulders ramming your face

for the few times i miss the dusters hit i’m so salty because it will punch three times in a row and you can’t do anything

was fine when i was running big bar first but now i’m back to full small bars

and no ghoul

[deep snow]

Careful this headshot not for gaming

So sound can be bad

[left orbit]

i’m already missing my headshots so all good

people here seem to have quite a significant benefit from these headphones (especially the 770 variants) for hunt

like pinpointing someone going ADS in a bush from 5 meters away

and even though most of the time i hear people way before my own teammates, it seems that i regularly encounter ennemies who heard me way before i heard them

and i’m SO MAD about that

also missing the footsteps of a shotgun running in the compound where i am

[deep snow]

Tbh take just gaming headset

Probably better than all of these shits

Not for gaming

[left orbit]

they’re expensive and super trash in my experience, i’ll never go to "gaming hardware" anymore, ever

[deep snow]

Sound good for music, not gaming

[deep snow]

basic hyperx better for gaming than all of these dt... FOR GAMING !

For listening music etc.. dt probably better

[left orbit]

heard good stuff about the hyperx though yeah… but the rest? huge cash marketing grabs

[deep snow]

yeah but man

[left orbit]

i just wish i could try each for like a day and pick the one that i like the most

[deep snow]

look for the dt

It's not plug & play

You need audio card...

So expensive for nothing

[soft marten]

Ugh don't remind me my friend and i got yesterday killed by a crazy katana guy who had not even the katana iaido trait

[left orbit]

you don’t necessarily need an audio card if you pick the 32 or 80 ohm iirc

250 ohm yeah might need an amp

[soft marten]

We were just sitting there speechless xd

[fathom shale]

I'm able to run 300 ohm headphones straight out of my mobo, idk why beyerdynamics would require a separate audio card or amp with less impedance

[deep snow]

Just donnt but iems it's very specific

[left orbit]

"iems"?

[mortal basin]

Fancy ear buds (in ear monitors)

[left orbit]

ah oh

[mortal basin]

I use a pair of Amazon IEMs

I like they quite a lot

[left orbit]

been two years postponing buying any audio hardware quite specifically for hunt 😂 i think its gonna wait another year, i’m so confused by ALL audio hw XD

and last time i tried, i ordered the steelseries wireless blabla pro stuff

expensive plastic cans

returned them same day

absolute crap

[mortal basin]

Hate to see it

HyperX is a great brand. Everything I've gotten from them has been quite good

A lot of the Hunt streamers I've seen also use them

And by a lot, I can think of 2

[deep snow]

I will upgrade to hyperx cloud III s

[normal kayak]

with a target on his head yes

[fathom shale]

After swapping away from "gaming" headsets/headphones I never wanna go back, good quality stereo headphones will be superior for overall use even if they aren't marketed towards gamers

[left orbit]

steelseries arctis pro wireless:

1. garbage microphone
2. meh sound
3. garbage noise cancellation
4. very cheap plastic-y construction
5. so pricey $$$

[mortal basin]

I think those might be the ones I had

Didn't like them either lmao

[gilded oxide]

mine are perfect and i have no issue with them

[mortal basin]

They were in the backseat of my car for years. Someone broke into it and robbed all my stuff and left them

So I guess they must have known how buns they are

[left orbit]

i have a XM5. it was "only" 100 bucks more compared to steelseries that sits at 300. and the XM5 is just WAY BETTER in EVERYTHING sound related. the only issue is the crappy bluetooth compression that makes sound horrible, but i didn’t buy these for that.

one reason for me to try the steelseries was the quality wireless stuff

it delivers there

but sound is overall garbage

plus i could hear the entire headset SQUEAKING at EACH MICRO HEAD MOVEMENT

even with its ANC

i’m sorry that you spent on this hardware, it’s really bad

[gilded oxide]

wsounds like you just had a bad one. i have none of these issues

[deep snow]

I know someone play with it it's good

Well each person is different i know some good good guy who play with headset 20 bucks and 3kd at this game x)

[left orbit]

yeah

[gilded oxide]

only thing ill agree on is the mic is trash the headset is dope otherwise

[left orbit]

i had a friend with a 30€ headset

and he couldn’t have been happier with anything else

[deep snow]

Mhh microphone is okay tbh

[left orbit]

no no it’s really bad

i have a 10€ external jack microphone attached to my XM5

it’s like 10 times better

[gilded oxide]

i have a standalone mic ands its worlds better than the trash headset mic

[left orbit]

could be. but the ANC is still just way underperforming, barely noticeable, and it’s quite a big part of how they market it sooo… very disappointed

i guess most of the money went to marketing

[gilded oxide]

my anc is just fine

[left orbit]

have you tried any other ANC?

[gilded oxide]

yes ive used multiple brands of headset

[left orbit]

and have you from the Sony XM series? because there is just no comparison, sony nailed it

granted that those headsets fit different purposes though

[gilded oxide]

any sont headset is dogahh my guy...shit is so staticy

[left orbit]

can you rephrase? i didn’t get what you mean 😂

[gilded oxide]

static with all sound no matter what

[left orbit]

wdym by static?

[fathom shale]

https://tenor.com/view/noise-tv-tv-noise-gif-13822466

[gilded oxide]

tf u think i mean candy?

[left orbit]

i’m not sure about what you mean sugar

coz i don’t have anything that would be "static" with the XM5

[gilded oxide]

all sound sounds filtered thru a strainer and has a slight buzz

[left orbit]

aaaah okay, the "woosh" sound that some people hear with some ANC

yeah i’ve heard of that

i can sense it when it’s 100% quiet and i’m not playing anything, just having the ANC

but other than that it doesn’t bother me one bit, and it was actually WAY LESS than the steelseries

steelseries had the worse statics i’ve ever heard with its ANC

funny

it’s like ears can be really sensitive to different things

[gilded oxide]

steelseries has no static.

[left orbit]

for me it had a ton

i ordered from their website, brand new and all

again i think we’re just sensitive to different … "sound signatures"

[gilded oxide]

sounds like you need to get an audio software cuz you are getting wildly different results than most ppl u might have bad audio drivers or just a bad mb

[soft marten]

I got a headset from the steelseries, one of the arctis nova headsets idk which one tho

[left orbit]

nope, disconnected headset with just ANC active and i barely notice the "wooosh" on the XM5
for the steelseries it was just… always there no matter what

and whether i connect BT or Jack it’s all the same, in fact

my MB is fine

[gilded oxide]

yeah sounds like you got fuckahh audio drivers

[left orbit]

only parasytes i get on audio is probably because the jack cable catches the surrounding radio, from times to times 😂

[left orbit]

no?

i just said that it’s all the same -> even when XM5 is not connected to anything, just living its own life, ANC on

i don’t perceive any significant "woosh" sound from the XM5's ANC

no matter how i connect -or don’t connect- it

on the other hand the steelseries, wireless mode, just felt wrong for me

also worth noting that i’m using this headset on two different machines, plus phone, and behaviour is really just the same on all devices and connectivity mode 😄

anyways

hunt

[cunning harness]

Yeah it is like first time using it i struggled

[random nimbus]

man, i wonder when ill get used to eu again

literally just bad players hiding and waiting

i should just crutch on semi auto to skip the bs

[main flint]

https://tenor.com/view/bunny-escape-containment-breach-caption-bunny-containment-breach-gif-10732405861492792373

[ashen mural]

Maaaan I am having such bad luck with pennyshot derry today, it’s not killin NOBODY even though the are right in front of me

[left orbit]

i play 99.99% of the time EU and it’s not like that

however there is something with mmr3 lobbies where it take them HOURS to go to the boss

probably more on the looter than the shooter side

[remote moss]

lies

well, depends on the time of day tbh. i only play eu a few hours ago from now, and its usually filled with

well, winning is as easy as "oh wait, i dont HAVE to do anything, i can just wait for these scared players to peek"

but its so fucking boring

[zinc apex]

I'm playing 3 to 4 star lobbies about 6 hours forward from now and it's rarely slow games, more aggression lobbies where everyone push like crazy.

Then again I don't have the patience to sit staring at a compound for 20 minutes so my teams push probably triggers reactions from nearby teams

[soft marten]

The bnuuy shall not be contained

[left orbit]

yeah. it’s about balance. when games are like everyone rushes in the middle and it’s shotgun pellets flying across the room, it’s so chaotic that it’s not about tactics anymore, just sheer luck and i find that pointless

but then not taking any kind of risk to try to shake the tree is pointless…

[remote moss]

what the fuck

did they stealth buff the avto

they must've broken something this update, that shit is farming training dummies at 20m. single burst is landing two shots

practically no recoil

[mortal basin]

Clearly it's just a worse shotgun

[cunning harness]

https://tenor.com/view/rabbit-strawbbycheesecake-gif-3683704077466325648

[remote moss]

dude, its never done this before

what the actual hell, one burst can end someone at 20m consistently

when did they change the recoil??

i swear to god, if this has always been the case and i never noticed because of bad fps

im gonna be pissed

[fathom shale]

Idk it's always been one of the strongest weapons in the game only held back by people thankfully not using it that often either due to them having honor or not wanting to spend money on it

[mortal basin]

Also, 20m is pretty close

[remote moss]

jesus

its crazy

[remote moss]

i think i can stretch it to 35m if i had better fps, i can get it consistently at 25m while standing

[mild flower]

because it's good and expensive enough that the only people who'd use it often are meta players, but it's not actually the best so it's not used by the meta players

[remote moss]

dude, its like before they added the anti avto macro. i cant believe i never noticed

im so fucking dumb

fuuuuck, what the actual fuck

i pushed the consistency into a guaranteed burst kill at 30m

they are standing still ofc but duuuuuude

so its hard because theres also rng to it, getting it at the 35m might be much more easy if i had 240fps but the fact that ive never noticed this before is insane

for max consistency, 25m is the limit for killing someone in one burst

can definitely be pushed further but it gets harder. i can bet 35m is solid for high fps players

i wonder how far you can push it. goddamnit, having bad specs is fucked

for literal years, i just thought of avto as a shitty semi auto mosin

well, strong but not that strong. took me however fucking long to realize the burst could still be controlled

[remote moss]

i mean, having an avto over shotgun is generally a stronger pick and you can hit wallbangs. the issue is a skill thing, why control avto burst when can hold angle with shotgun instead. same reason people use mosin instead of krag, more forgiving to limb shots at a long distance and stripper clip

[soft marten]

https://tenor.com/view/bunny-eating-gif-27018618

[remote moss]

and if youre assuming you only land one consistent bullet per avto burst, it makes sense that having to two tap feels worse than the shotguns guaranteed punish kills

[whole furnace]

Dunno, wouldn't pick slugs over buckshot for any of those 3 still.
Also I know slugs sucks at wallbangs, but still doesn't negates the fact they technically have better pen than buckshot and is designed as the ammo to pen walls with, even stated so in the in-game description since the release of the ammo.

[ancient cave]

so true bestie

[zinc apex]

True, a lot of shotguns in compounds. 3 to 4 star ain't that sweaty tho, I have been having a lot of fun with quad extended dolches and basically just rushing in like some deranged cowboy John Wick.

[leaden herald]

well I do happen to need money

awwww it got deleted

how do I make money now

[zinc apex]

It's pretty easy during events, just accumulate points and go for the two guaranteed cash register at circus, plus carts have a lot pretty often.

Can pair it with vulture trait as well if you kill hunters or come across bodies of dead ones for up to 1000 hunt dollar procs

You don't need a ton tho if ur new since you probably want to go throughout the prestige stages anyway. I usually end up with like 15 to 20k before I reset on prestige

[leaden herald]

oh it was about hunt dollars I thought the message was about bitcoin or something

[ancient cave]

telling new players they want to do prestige is evil

[leaden herald]

nono prestiging is worth it 100%

it's a win-win afterall you don't lose anything

[ancient cave]

work ur ass off for that john victor before they put him in the store for 20 bucks in a year boy

jk I love prestige

though the reward rework sucked

[whole furnace]

First 20 prestige is deffo worth it.
And best time to start is yesterday

[leaden herald]

they should add a John Huntshowdown character to the prestige rewards

[whole furnace]

They did

[ancient cave]

whats special about the first 20 I haven't been under 20 since I was an infant

I could see doing 1 for xp bonus

[whole furnace]

Literally John Showdown voiced by Geralt

[leaden herald]

do you mean John Victor

[ancient cave]

or well 1 is probably a guaranteed reward actually

[whole furnace]

4 random skins, 6 Hunters (two progression Hunters), 3 weapon skins and 800BB :)

[ancient cave]

I never picked random skin just because I knew spiritually I would 100% get sideshow judge

[main flax]

anyone else having god awful que times today? NAE

[ancient cave]

noone in nae has freetime yet today

[raven totem]

The in game statement is ironic when buck can one tap and slugs can't.

[main flax]

i mean fair, but it isnt usually this bad, 30+ hour que time

[whole furnace]

Oh yeah for sure.
But looking at the numbers, buck gets 50% damage shaved off thru 1 wooden wall, slugs gets like 40% shaved off.
But slugs have less initial base damage so it ends up less lmaooo!

[raven totem]

I get that, but citing as much feels misleading when "it can pen better" but can't do the most important thing while penning

[whole furnace]

Oh I cite it bc I will forever clown on that decision.

[raven totem]

back on those choices, cnk buck vs rival, would prefer rival especially in cost vs power, as rival is outright faster than cnk, when cnk slugs still holds power weapon status.

rival hc rounds of any kind tend to be painfull due to rng imo, slugs smooths that out A LOT imo.

whats kinda weird to me is you're talking down on slugs, but slugs now kinda follow the power scope you want the game to head towards.

[whole furnace]

Penetration damage of Slugs has been adjusted to retain more damage on the first penetration. However, the retained damage will be a bit lower than before 2.1 and won’t one hit kill a player to the upper-torso.
They buffed slugs after the backlash, but deliberately still made it not 1-tap :')

[raven totem]

anything romero/drilling, I will say slugs hurt you far far more than anything they can help with.

the whole wallbang changes felt hamfisted

[whole furnace]

Yes and no, I think my issues with old slugs was more that every shotgun had access to it instead of being a specialty ammo for certain shotguns.
Akin how we don't slap dum dum on any gun (or at least anymore).

[whole furnace]

Whole of 2.0 felt like someone with skill issue at Crytek was tired of getting wallbanged loll

[raven totem]

before I had accepted them as, "it" I did not like how prior if you where not running slugs you where just not being effecient.

[whole furnace]

But it started MUCH earlier just in smaller scope, with windows, sliding doors and compounds overall getting less peeking spots.

[raven totem]

some walls feel literally impenetrable

that should be

[whole furnace]

That too

[raven totem]

it pisses me off

[whole furnace]

Again, bug or not, the first wall not counting as pen at least made the system rather reliable in that regard.

Felt less like a gamble

[raven totem]

oh hey crytek look, taking a sledghe hammer to wallbangs didn't lessen the hackusations

[whole furnace]

Also HATE that I get so many situations where I see someone poke their big dumb barrel around a corner, I can see them and still don't wanna shoot bc I am unsure if connecting my shot thru clipping the doorframe is gonna be a killshot or not.

[raven totem]

ya

[mild flower]

before the change i literally never heard anyone complain at all about the state of wallbanging

[quiet hinge]

yeah and the haymaker should do 125 damage

[raven totem]

is it just me, or do the stair railings at church seem to eat one taps like the fucking cookie monster?

[mild flower]

ehh haymaker is good already

it can quickswap

[quiet hinge]

https://tenor.com/view/monkey-orangutan-gif-22008155

[whole furnace]

I know Fifield talked about it back in the days when they made windows/sliding door/compounds less see-thru, that it was to give new players a better chance to fight vets who "could utilize those peeks better".
Which is... come on :(

[raven totem]

I get the slidingdoor thing but they went to far with it imo

[whole furnace]

I want to, but due to the current state of balance, it would just push it over the top.

[raven totem]

long secondarys power was realocated to much

[mild flower]

let's just give everyone aimbot so that people with worse aim can fight people with better aim

[fair stag]

Story of our lives with them removing tech/nerfing vet strats for new players sake

[raven totem]

for that to be a good idea specifically

[quiet hinge]

its just hard to justify bringing it over a drilling

[whole furnace]

I mean it is long ammo with 1.3s cycle rate that is kinda bussin'

[raven totem]

because the shotgun sucks, not because it's not 125

[leaden herald]

make Haymaker do 149 damage and give it dum dum

trust

[fair stag]

It'll be balanced because they'll just make it scarce

[quiet hinge]

yeah so, why take it over a drilling

other than i like it

[raven totem]

only loadout I feel justified in taking it is with flechete shotgun so I can have long acces and a one tap

[whole furnace]

Saw someone wanting to give Uppercut Spitzer and Dum Dum which... Not sure if the world is ready for that loll

[raven totem]

spitzer absolutly doesn't need any one slot to mule with for one

[quiet hinge]

LOL like even that loadout is fucking nuts

[raven totem]

and asking for dum dum on anything long is I just installed the game suggestion territory

[whole furnace]

What is the Drilling Shorty shotgun equal to?

[raven totem]

romero

[quiet hinge]

^

[whole furnace]

Wth Crytek

[raven totem]

1:1

[quiet hinge]

yep

[raven totem]

I like it leave it alone

[quiet hinge]

so i'd rather haymaker be 125 damage and a shit shotgun

[raven totem]

it reloads slower

idk

[whole furnace]

Dunno Haymaker is still 530m/s long ammo that is quite crazy

[raven totem]

haymaker isn't bad at all, but drilling shorty is just low key Stier or high A

[raven totem]

60m bullet drop kinda invalidates that imo

[quiet hinge]

even if they reduced the velocity to be in line with the uppercut, if it was 125 i'd use it

[raven totem]

sparks p's in you're area are waiting

[quiet hinge]

sparks pistol i want in every loadout, because its a pain sense machine all on its own, and with fmj it does 125 through a wall

[whole furnace]

65m, but yeah somewhat, never really bothered by it personally.

[quiet hinge]

so you can perma hold bodies

[whole furnace]

Sparks Pistol Carbine?! :V

[cunning harness]

I blame the dev for one thing they didn't added open world and added horses

[raven totem]

why you no like? cnk flechette isn't cool to you?

[quiet hinge]

i mean admit that its jank as fuck lol

[cunning harness]

If there is horses i would spam the shit of umamusume

[raven totem]

it works

[whole furnace]

"I want my pizza to be a burger"

[quiet hinge]

all sorts of things work

[raven totem]

it works well in many situations

try it

[quiet hinge]

lol im not saying it doesn't work it's just i fucking truly hate shotguns

the only shotgun i really ever use is the drilling

[raven totem]

adversly you could ammo stack with it with a long sniper

[dusky spoke]

Also never added building

[raven totem]

sparks sniper plus haymaker

[dusky spoke]

very sad

[quiet hinge]

i prefer like the infantry for sniping though

[raven totem]

ya we're just not into the same things here I see

[quiet hinge]

yeah

tbh i never understood why people use the sparks sniper

[raven totem]

it's fun

[dusky spoke]

we are but you never have time for me bbg

[raven totem]

it's 149

[raven totem]

you're so quiet most of the time lol. we'll play soon

[dusky spoke]

i act shy but its just my way of trying to get attention

[mortal basin]

Alright, hopon

[short halo]

That's...That's two things

[raven totem]

I've stuff to do then sleep

[mortal basin]

Why sleep when you could play Hunt instead???

[short halo]

Play Hunt in your sleep

[mortal basin]

I often do

Only place I can get wins is in my dreams

[raven totem]

because if I don't get enough sleep I could literally die at work lol

[whole furnace]

Nowadays? Less so, but back in the days? Looooooong headshot ranges

[mortal basin]

Doesn't seem ideal

Perhaps best to die in Hunt

[dusky spoke]

c:

[quiet hinge]

yeah but nowadays : (

[dusky spoke]

I hate when my workmates dont take necro

[quiet hinge]

i honestly feel like infantry is probably the best sniper nowadays

[raven totem]

right?

[whole furnace]

I mean, still 145m drop range, that is fine

[mortal basin]

Only sniper I play is Mayonnaise

[raven totem]

over all I don't like sniping due to many of my team mates being aggressive and I feel immense pressure to secure their bodies.

[whole furnace]

Maynard should have been 460m/s and then 560m/s with HV.
Giving it 660m/s and 170m drop range just kinda make it outclash so many other snipers.

[mortal basin]

It's pretty wild

Rest in rip to Sparks sniper

[whole furnace]

Then again lol Mosin Spitzer with 820m/s + 160 drop range

Bc

[mortal basin]

That makes sense

[quiet hinge]

idk i feel like you can be pretty aggressive with the infantry over other snipers

[mortal basin]

If you're gonna pay that much for a gun and ammo, you might as well get to be comfortable

[zinc apex]

To each their own I enjoy the resets because I play different guns every prestige, good learning curve that way and it keeps stuff fresh, plus the extra random skin rewards are dope

[raven totem]

and then you pair it with obre drum apitzer hmmmm hmmm

[whole furnace]

Crytek didn't thought that thru when they wanted to make bullet drop.
"We gonna add bullet drop to tuned down long ammo, it gonna be based on the total MV of a bullet!"
...
"Wait a second!"

[quiet hinge]

also the infantry levering is actually pretty good for what it is

[raven totem]

I'm aware of that, but investing that many points into infantry sniper kinda puts me off

[quiet hinge]

ya thats fair

you do have to build around it

[whole furnace]

People calling long ammo useless bc of drop range.
Lebel and the compact Winnies have the same drop range of 140m.
Again what was the fucking point of drop range except for just making long ammo handguns shit?

Yeah sure was important to lock the henry down with 125m drop range.

[mortal basin]

I mean, with how insane the range for the start of bullet drop is, it basically does only affect sniping

[zinc apex]

How dare you sir, Uppercut is love not shit

[mortal basin]

Uppercrutch my beloved

[quiet hinge]

sir why take an uppercut when the pax trueshot fmj exists

[leaden herald]

uppercut was the first gun I ever bought for a hunter and I have loved it ever since

[whole furnace]

Even as much as I don't mind the Uppercut to be less viable, rn it feels a little gutted.

[mortal basin]

9 tens out of time that I aim above someone's head with a rifle because they're far as hell away, my bullet goes right over their head

[zinc apex]

I'm just being a donkey I play all guns diversity is dope

[quiet hinge]

based

[mortal basin]

Hate to see a pistol nerf in disguise like that

They rebranded the game just to nerf pistols

[quiet hinge]

i mean they buffed pistols recently

[mortal basin]

[quiet hinge]

when they normalized values for long/medium/compact, now the sparks pistol or uppercut damage fall off starts at 40m

[mortal basin]

Long ammo mules

[whole furnace]

In the most unneeded way.

God I hate that change

[quiet hinge]

this includes silenced sparks pistol, which removed the damage fall off

[whole furnace]

Gonna be a nightmare to balance around down the line.

[quiet hinge]

from like, 25 to 40

[whole furnace]

Also another change that is just a buff to medium and long ammo while compact eats shit again

Just like limb change

[quiet hinge]

it also buffed silencers a ton as well lol

wait whats wrong with compact ammo?

[mortal basin]

Honestly

Compact is fine if long isn't op as shit

[royal holly]

Thanks kai cenat

For your generosity

[whole furnace]

Well, when limb damage buffs were given, compact was the ones getting the least out of it.
When damage drop off for pistols was normalized, compact ammo was unaffected bc pistols already had the same drop off as rifles, while medium and long got a +10m boost each.

[quiet hinge]

the drop of a haymaker vs the officer is quite different i feel

i believe they're both 65

[whole furnace]

Talking about damage drop off, not bullet drop

[quiet hinge]

ah mb

[mortal basin]

65m 😭

[whole furnace]

And as far I am aware, people ran the test, all bullets have the same curve, bullet drop just affects when it starts.

[quiet hinge]

well actually is that true? compact got a huge buff in the sense of minimum damage

[mortal basin]

Thought so as well

I don't know any numbers, but I thought they got a pretty big bonus with the arm damage

[whole furnace]

Doesn't really matter, they goes out to 22m on average.
So sure you can now 2-tap arms but 2m or more.

[raven totem]

compact gained a massive amount regarding limbs

[whole furnace]

While Mosin can now 1-tap you to lower torso if you at 125 hp

[mortal basin]

That's good

It needed something

[whole furnace]

Had the pleasure to die to such yesterday, monkey aim, but doesn't matter bc lol

[raven totem]

officer pistol is so slept on right now it's crazy to me

like, fucking willlld

[quiet hinge]

https://tenor.com/view/marvel-is-it-though-thor-bruce-banner-gif-14242312

[raven totem]

uh ya

[mortal basin]

I need to try it

I'm just so based and don't really use spam

[raven totem]

literally it's largest weakness was eliminated with limb changes

[mortal basin]

Since because based

[raven totem]

I will not be shackled by such notions

[quiet hinge]

I mean before the changes a compact rifle couldn't 3 tap an enemy to the body at 150m

[mortal basin]

I have far too much honor for such action

[paper anvil]

my teammate lost half his hp to a single non armoured hellhound (had dusters btw),is this peak gaming ?

[mortal basin]

I'd say

I got double bit by a dog just yesterday

[whole furnace]

Officer is fine, just a shame it only get those perks danger close to shotguns lol

[mortal basin]

Back to back in like zero seconds, and then there was a trio in the woods right next to me

I didn't make it

[raven totem]

it feels like you're saying you've to much honest to take rock or paper, but scissors is cool.

[royal holly]

Lagging maybe

[mortal basin]

Spam is like taking two rocks

[paper anvil]

and now both my teammates failed to kill an immolators(had dusters btw) and got killed by someone while looking back towards a place someone shot at us from

[quiet hinge]

Idk i feel like the officer is like a budget dolch, its really good lol

[paper anvil]

yeah ass randoms

[mortal basin]

It is lol

For sure

[whole furnace]

Officer losing its newly gained arm + chest tap at 21m lol

[mortal basin]

Spam in this game is just good

[quiet hinge]

i think the people who sleep on it are the people who just run new army fmj or dum dum

[raven totem]

ya but it's still there

[whole furnace]

Sure, but I treat anything sub 20m as shotgun country and a gamble to use 2-tappers.
Ofc better than nothing, just don't wanna bank on it.

[raven totem]

the new breakpoints on officer are just crazy to me for how little I see it played.

[raven totem]

shotguns don't go 20m though

[mortal basin]

Rival

[quiet hinge]

ready for another hot take?

[whole furnace]

Not but closing in on 10m in cqc is easy.

[quiet hinge]

make the crossbow do 275 damage

[mortal basin]

I think that people in high elo just take Dolch

And that's why you don't see it

[whole furnace]

Why?

[raven totem]

depends on the awareness of the situation and map

[quiet hinge]

to make it in line with hundred hands bow

[mortal basin]

Crossbow is high key one of the strongest weapons in the game tbh

[raven totem]

perhaps, idk.

[raven totem]

shhh don't worry about it.

[whole furnace]

Eh, still worse bow.
Hot take: Make bow three slot

[quiet hinge]

ive already said this one lmao

but crossbow should be 275 damage

[raven totem]

BOW OP OMG WHAT A CROCK OF SHIT HOW DOES BOW EXSIST

[quiet hinge]

its criminal that it's not

[whole furnace]

Eeeh, that would make it 1-tap arms

[quiet hinge]

I mean shotbolts do that

[raven totem]

EXPLOSIVE CHO KUNO IS BS MAN, HOW DO i COUNTER THAT

[whole furnace]

Shotbolt is a whole other story lol

[quiet hinge]

sometimes after a year long bug

[whole furnace]

And also 50/50 bugged.

[mortal basin]

Am I tripping??? Crossbow one taps arm to like 14-16m or something, no??

[quiet hinge]

not ever

[mortal basin]

Don't make me load the game

[whole furnace]

At 5m

it 1-taps

[raven totem]

if you just arm at shoulder level you geatly reduce the arm problem

[mortal basin]

Damn

[quiet hinge]

idk if this is true

lol

[mortal basin]

It has to

[raven totem]

CAN YOU BELIEVE BOW GETS POISON ARROWS?

it's unbeatable, I'm telling ya

[mortal basin]

Surely

[quiet hinge]

what are you even going on about lol

[raven totem]

don't worry about it

[upbeat lark]

well this age unwell

[whole furnace]

Of what weapon?

[upbeat lark]

specter

[whole furnace]

heh

[upbeat lark]

im bored so i just look at guns in wikis and read everything

[fresh oracle]

https://hunt.kamille.ovh/maps/

Is this map still relevant ?

[molten pilot]

Anyone in Asia server experience horrible lag today?

Right now actually

[fresh oracle]

I do in europe, last night at least, 16h ago

[heavy pewter]

Game mode dying so you have to force me to play the "Hunt but not Hunt" version of the game?

[whole furnace]

Just pick free hunters and leave the match before it starts, still countss

[wraith forum]

i just went in for fun

tbh i havent done bounty clash in a year or two

sometimes my friends request it tho

[worn bay]

anyone got high ping and packet loss when play?

[wraith forum]

waiting for teammates, will report back when i get in

[humble night]

crycloud off ?

[wheat elm]

bruh im so done with playing solo, when i finally face something other than shitgun trios, its some guy with levering winnie, and when its not levering its fanning, always ending in a trade

[whole furnace]

To be fair, that is less about playing solo or not and more about Hunt having so many crutch options in CQC now.

And the overall meta favoring some kind of shotgun.

[wheat elm]

yeah na i agree its just that as a trio i dont mind those things at all because trading is whatever but as a solo its like i trade with the first guy, get back up only to trade again with the second guy

and then its over

[whole furnace]

Yeeeee, trading also happens much more often with 1-tappers

[wheat elm]

thats how most of my games end, and i really wish i could run rifle and not get insta headshot'd or two tapped like crazy

[whole furnace]

I mean at least a headshot takes skill

[wheat elm]

it does yeah, doesnt make it less frustrating though

[heavy pewter]

"just"... Or just dont give us weeklies that force us into a little niché that most players dont even care about?

[whole furnace]

Don't worry I oppose of that too

Have voiced my gripes

[wheat elm]

i mean no one is forcing you to do the quest, 10 games of bounty clash is nothing and at least you dont gotta run across the map just to get killed 👍🏻

[whole furnace]

Go leave it in #feedback for the devs to see :)

[whole furnace]

Don't like this line of thinking, then any criticism can quickly become null.
I wanna engage with the challengen system which is tied to my purchased for a real money spent Battlepass, so think it is fine and fair to voice once dislike for such things too.

[wheat elm]

I mean you are in your right to voice your opinion about it, what I said still stands though

[whole furnace]

Not really because you trying to undermine it by deflecting it with a "no one is forcing you".

I understand everyone have different pain points, some people is fine by playing some Clash, but it is not the "main mode" of Hunt and there are plenty of people doesn't wanna play clash.
Again, it would be like asking people to play Soul Survivor.

[mortal basin]

Clash should be temp mode tbh

Having it in the game at all times seems to have ruined it

[upper kraken]

So i decided to play after a few months and i cant find a teammate to play duos is the game dead or im having issues to find 6 star teammate

[whole furnace]

Duos is kinda dead nowadays bc we got random fill to trios it seems :)

[upper kraken]

thats so dumb trios is not fun at all

also that doesn't really change anything duos is duos, you were able to play trios before

[whole furnace]

I mean, it is people who choose they wanna play trios more than duos.
Not really Crytek that ordered people to do such.

But I also think duos in general have had a fundamental design issue every since they added that darn 6th team years ago.

[upper kraken]

Duos got no issues at all

Only thing you could say is fighting against 5 teams

[mortal basin]

Trios is far more popular

Which is a shame

[upper kraken]

Trios never been popular whenever i tried to play trios i always had issues to fill the team

[mortal basin]

Well

That's the most populated mode

Must be a region/time thing or something

[whole furnace]

Duos is MUCH more passive and campy ever since they added the 6th team.
Most people disliked that.

[rain oracle]

try playing trios late at night in comparison to duos and youll see how dead the servers are,trios is waaay more populated

[upper kraken]

i don't think you understand, thers 26k players online i have been on the queue for 6-7 mins

there must be something wrong here

[upper kraken]

Thats what happens at 3 stars maybe you should try 5-6 star lobbies next time

[wheat elm]

I mean honestly I'm a bit conflicted myself, as both a bounty hunt and bounty clash enjoyer, I don't want more of those challenges but at the same time I don't think having one is an issue, you don't have to finish the quest to complete it and you don't have to do all 10 games in a row in one sitting to get it done. It is an easy quest for the people that enjoy the gamemode and at worst a small inconvenience for the others in my opinion.

[rain oracle]

if you're talking about right now im having crycloud server issues so might be that,dunno if its other people or just me tho lol

[whole furnace]

26k players, 7 server regions, 3 game modes, 6 brackets of MMR.
That quickly ain't as many players as you think it is to fill your lobby.

[upper kraken]

i started playing this game 6 years ago

its my first time having an issue like this

[rain oracle]

more like 2 1/2 regiong since the vast majority are in EU/NAE servers

[whole furnace]

The way I see it, challenges can impact how we play the game (weapons and whatnot), but shouldn't impact what mode we wanna play.
Again, the horror scenario is like: play 25 games of quickplay.

[wheat elm]

Maybe add one of those on the first week so people have time to do them/dont feel the prssure to get everything done right away or let people reroll/ban certain quests from showing up

[whole furnace]

Bc people are moving over to trios more now

[upper kraken]

doesn't matter

theres 26k players game is clearly doing well

how can i not find a single soul

[whole furnace]

Because people simply don't wanna play duos

[wheat elm]

I mean I agree, while I think 10 bounty clash games is nothing they've defintely set the number too high, should have been 3

[upbeat lark]

or use that as a money making opportunity switching the trait to vulture and wipe the lobby

[upper kraken]

why would you want to play trios over duos

[whole furnace]

Less campy

[upper kraken]

trios is chaotic and you can't track 6-9 enemies at the same time and two teammates

also

[rain oracle]

says you

[upper kraken]

i always had to carry one idiot, i cant deal with two idiots on my team

[rain oracle]

its way easier to track two three times of three vs 5 duos

[wheat elm]

duos is just boring, they play more ratty than solos its not even funny

[upper kraken]

you never fight against 5 duos teams that is very rare

and people are not camping this is such a 3 star take

[upbeat lark]

unless i have a buddy playing duo with random is quite the pressure

[rain oracle]

100% the reason i rather play against trios as a solo rather than duos,sooo campy and ratty

[mortal basin]

Depends on the match, but good duos games are more fun than good trios games imo

[upper kraken]

its literally the exact opposite its really interesting how stars change the gameplay

[wheat elm]

i tried playing against duos as a solo last week, most of my games I was the only one at boss lair and then getting ambushed by different duos in almost every compound on my way to the extract lol

[upper kraken]

i also play solo and i can never find opportunity to snipe duos if i want to because they don't camp

[rain oracle]

i havent been in three star since i started playing 3/4/5/6 star same shit duos/trios difference is the same regardless of mmr

[upper kraken]

then you are lying

[whole furnace]

Man is coming in here asking about the reality of duos and then refusing to accept the answers lol

[wheat elm]

then i guess the game is lying to you too

[upper kraken]

i did not come here to ask that

i asked if theres any issue with matchmaking

[wheat elm]

no, there are issues with duos hence why nobody wants to play it

[upper kraken]

okay what issues

[upbeat lark]

i played duo for like 6 games with my buddy back then

[rain oracle]

my thought exactly lol

[upbeat lark]

but he dissapears

[whole furnace]

Too many teams, which leads to too much 3rd partying, which leads to MUCH more passive and campy players.

I want duos to succeed

[upper kraken]

it doesn't matter theres same amounth of players

[whole furnace]

I want to wanna jump into duos when I don't have 3-stack.
But as I said, 6th team made it much worse.

That is not how it works loll

[mortal basin]

Alright, hop on. Let's run some duos

[whole furnace]

4 teams spread across a map vs 6 teams means there are more odds for hostiles looking at you.

[upper kraken]

if you are playing duos worst case scenario you are fighting 2 teams so 4 people but if you are playing trios you are usually fighting against 6

whats stopping trios teams to leave one guy behind and snipe from behind

its same amounth of players

but yes you will see teams more often

which makes the game more fun and it feels alive

you will not get third partied dont you have headphones

[whole furnace]

Dunno man, all I can say is my 6 star lobbies in duos is very passive

[upper kraken]

you are just lying but okay

im currently high 6 star thats why i might be struggling with matchmaking

i guess i have to die few times going in solo

[upbeat lark]

I don't even remember the 6 duo matches I did with by buddy like 3 month ago
