dds?

I didn’t know it was good with fanning. Might try that

#

Its okay with fanning, but I would say other guns can fan better

thnx

That said, running Nagant with HV gives you a decent head clicker gun with somewhat low recoil.

Is it worth taking nagant over officer though?

np. Nagant aren't bad. I use them as dualies... close-ranged they're nice. I think Rexnor did a vid on them recently. He was playing with Emaiza, and he made excellent use of them.

oh yeah what happened to the hunter with the cool talisman on his face

Gotta be honest kind of tired of giving crybug money how the hell is this an issue with the pass being out for like a month plus now they are one of the worst development teams ever throw back to garden of the witch with no garden or witch

Already contacted support so going to do both cause this company sucks balls

#

when i get angry, i make sure to find a target

#

in this case, id play hunt with terminus dragons breath levering and hand crossbow dragons bolt

#

dragons bolt is the closest thing to free dmg and having strong utility atm. flame rifle wishes it was as easy to use as dragons bolt

#

one of the most abusive and easy to land pieces of shit in the game currently

#

but people just kinda forgot it exist

#

maybe its scarce though, havent checked

dawn zinc
#

Dragons bolt isn't scarce

#

It feels way less reliable than it used to be for me though

remote moss

maybe they tuned the drop on it? weird

I dunno. Always feels like they land right on or next to a hunter but do nothing

Day 500 of searching for a wildland (got my 15th homestead)

My teammate had a centennial too so we ran cenny dumdum and wildland dumdum

#

I pray Crytek never adds a long ammo wild weapon

#

Imagine a gun that is to the Mosin what the Wildlands is for the Centennial

dawn zinc
#

Scarce long ammo weapon that does 160 damage

storm pebble
mortal cove
jaunty patio
#

Scarce Sparks that does 149 damage out to 60m instead of 40

#

and is faster reload

#

I mean we could get like a long ammo wild gun thats just a sparks but with more velocity/damage range and less drop

# mortal cove Mako:

Even mako is a good gun. It's just overshadowed by the more terribly overpowered long ammo options.

#

But mako is still long ammo

#

Still really strong

dawn zinc
#

I had a couple good games with Mako same time I played Sparks. Don't get all the hate for that gun, it's pretty fun to play

storm pebble
#

Mako should get a slightly faster rechamber speed I think

mortal cove
#

It‘s very janky to handle

#

I prefer the sleeker Centennial or normal Winfield

mild flower
mortal cove
#

Centennial HV is also

mild flower
#

Yeah cent and Winfield have always been good picks

mortal cove
#

Especially the Wildlands HV

storm pebble
#

Brethier is also just a solid long ammo gun, although I wouldnt use that thing without bullet grubber

mortal cove
#

Wildlands feels like going back to the early early access Winfield

mild flower
#

Edited cause nothing needs bullet grubber but it can be convenient*

No teammates to cover you if you're low on ammo

#

You need all 3 shots for a team wipe

#

Even after years of Hunt being my main fps game, I cant get out of the habit of reloading every single chance I get

storm pebble
#

Plus if you are using regen stims you should be doing other stuff while healing anyways

dawn zinc

Weapons that require bulletgrubber are terrible for me

#

also does anyone even use the Martini Henry? I havent seen that thing in forever

storm pebble
#

It is, but the sparks costs legit 8 dollars more and.... its the sparks

mild flower
#

It's better in compound fights unless you're doing a meme Loadout like sparks + hand xbow chokes

storm pebble
#

It does like 130 damage right? Thats still very solid

mild flower

And it does have explosive ammo, I guess thats an upside too

Not as useful once you leave 4* though

I don't find as many teams sitting with all the windows and doors closed & trapped

my fav thing so far was using Polter, opening a window, enemy comes to check it, then I snipe them with the maynard

Very fun and decently useful

Clearing corners is a big thing people underestimate

Does explosive ammo detonate a dynamite that is cooking in someones hand?

I use fmj on Martini though because you can do 125+ damage through walls to the body. So body shot ohks on injured hunters missing a bar. @storm pebble

storm pebble
#

I should try that

#

Though I usually just go for a Uppercut/Haymaker with FMJ if I need someone to shoot through walls

#

also yesterday I thought a fun loadout would be the homestead with dragons breath and the flame rifle
Burn EVERYTHING and you still have a shotty that can 1 tap at close range

or just a romero with buck/dragon cause thats affordable

I dont even go without a shotgun anymore, they are just so useful for actually assaulting the enemies instead of just having a napoleotic war shootout

mild flower
#

Not bringing a shotgun rn feels like throwing

storm pebble
#

Especially in 6 star

#

also I havent seen anybody use a bow in my 6 star lobbies so far

dawn zinc
#

I miss when the majority of fights were wacky wild west shootouts across compounds

sick bramble
#

im 5 stars and i rarely see bows too

#

that's good fuck bows

dawn zinc
#

Most fights are squeezed into a single building these days

#

And usually boil down to last man standing in a flurry of shotgun trades

sick bramble
mild flower
dawn zinc
#

Not sure. I noticed a shift around the time clash/new engine released

left orbit
#

i do more headshots with martini than lebel, and i play more lebel than martini lol

dawn zinc
#

People got a lot of practice defending a banish building with shotguns because of clash

#

And the fact shotguns got buffed doesn't help

sick bramble
#

yeah i think it's that too

left orbit
#

debuff shotguns ye

#

debuff bow as well (and i’m a bow user…)

#

i never understood why they buffed them

mild flower
dawn zinc
#

Obviously everyone has their own preference. I just really love mid range compound shootouts

mild flower
#

There's a reason mid range is the default in most games

dawn zinc
#

Those mid range shootouts only got worse over time because of new additions too which probably leads to more cqc shootouts

#

Recovery shots make mid range a ballache

mild flower
#

And regen shot

dawn zinc
#

So you're more incentivised to just get close and get the fight over with one way or another

#

Be it dying to a shotgun or killing them with a shotgun

remote moss
#

well

#

just mid range and body camp

#

you dont have to do anything

#

damn what are these guys doing lol. mans trying to res me after a team done got me

i’ve always fought mid range even before buffs cuz beyond 50-60 meters i just can’t hit anything LUL

for me the game has been the same since i started playing it because of this 😂

#

the wildland is a complete buff from centennial avto actually has drawbacks

#

shoot avto once suddenly cant hear shit
have to bring mad ammo because youre using 3 bullets every shot

#

its like the only thing in the game with difficult recoil

pulsar vortex
#

those aren't drawbacks

normal kayak
#

not being able to hear isnt a drawback

pulsar vortex
#

already bringing 2 ammo boxes with mosin anyways

normal kayak
#

why the fuck do you have 2 ammo boxes with the mosin

pulsar vortex
#

and you're bursting anyways which won't fully deafen

normal kayak
#

brother what are you killing with your mosin

pulsar vortex
#

enoug ammo to kill the entire lobby?

normal kayak
#

are you like a solo that only bodyshots

#

ive got plenty of lobby wipes and if i am bringing an ammo box i bring 1

it's spitzer obviously

#

9

normal kayak
#

plenty

clueless

remote moss

#

SURELY you can find ammo bro

remote moss
#

its rng so its a pain to control at longer ranges but its still consistent to compete vs shotguns

normal kayak

especially with circus going rn

remote moss
#

not in one burst

pulsar vortex
#

yes in one burst

remote moss
#

im not sure about crouched accuracy, maybe

#

nah rngs too high

#

you just got severely unlucky

mild flower
# pulsar vortex those aren't drawbacks

-Bad sights
-Awful ammo econ
-Actually meaningful recoil
-Deafening yourself
-Hipfire accuracy
-Ammo types
-Has to reload longer for the same amount of shots(bursts)

#

avto basically forces you to bring a long ammo muling secondary

#

drumbrez or sparps

#

sometimes a haymaker

remote moss
#

drumbrez meta makes it meta to bring avtomat as the backup to drumbrez which is a normal rifle

#

bro i thought my teammate was the cyclone player but it was just a cyclone player on the flank missing every shot on my teammate standing still

#

lmao

#

then fucker kills me

i always kill avto with bow in two star

#

buff it type beat

left orbit

just crouch and compensate for the recoil

#

ez wins

crouching only boosts first shot accuracy if you want more consistency at range

who knows

#

its like, ck two tap range is same as avto two tap range practically

lofty sinew
#

avto gonna be quicker second shot easy surely

random nimbus
#

Slug deviation is pretty gross

#

I tested it some time back and it's infuriating, especially on the 2 slots

pulsar vortex
#

it shouldn't even be a two tap at 30m

random nimbus
#

Crown slugs used to two tap at 45m to the upper torso

#

Not sure what it is now

#

again, avto can consistently one burst up to 60m

#

hes lying btw

pulsar vortex
#

I don't know what else to say except skill issue

remote moss
remote moss
random nimbus
remote moss
#

i can stretch the one burst to about 30m but not consistently, my fps isnt good enough to eye it properly.

random nimbus
#

When I tested deviation, I started to wonder if I was just missing because holy moly it got bad

#

I hate deviation as a concept in this game

#

Drop is one thing because it seems to be pretty consistent. Deviation is just RNG

remote moss
#

its a really nice balancing mechanic, its just unintuitive

random nimbus
#

It's a horrible balancing mechanic

normal kayak
#

my teammate has a steam profile link in their bio which leads to an account with a similar pfp and a ban on record

#

hm

random nimbus
#

Quite possibly the worst you can implement. It adds RNG to ADS

remote moss
#

forcing a player to aim center mass for the best results is pretty nice

random nimbus
#

And they can still miss

remote moss
#

it goes against the consistency argument you were talking about

random nimbus
#

Because the bullet deviation is out of their control

#

Inconsistencies because of RNG are not a good thing when you ADS

remote moss
#

i did just test it, its consistent headshots at 30m when aiming center mass with room for error. thats even with two slot sluggies too

random nimbus
#

Hip fire and dualies are one thing because they're designed that way

#

Adding deviation to someone that aimed properly is introducing RNG where it has no business

#

You can lose because the game decided your shot just misses because it feels like it

remote moss
#

its a strong artificial way to balance the effective distance of a weapon, instead of just suddenly giving it jank dropoff numbers

#

you can go into training range, aim at head, and it lands 100% of the time at 30m. thats it, 30m is the limit

#

yeah it balances it so slugs suddenly suck as balls at 40m and above

random nimbus
#

That makes it a bad balancing tool

#

If you have to introduce RNG to balance something, you can't balance properly

remote moss
#

i mean

random nimbus
#

The whole point of slugs is to be used at range

#

And to reduce spread RNG

#

Now it has deviation RNG

#

Maybe don't let them two tap at 45m vs making them just miss at that range

#

And give them some pen damage back

remote moss
#

well, center mass 45m is guaranteed to land

#

it just hits limbs so the kill potential and damage is rough

random nimbus
#

It was not in my testing

#

At 25m they were deviating

remote moss
#

wait, i wonder if its affected by the gun

#

i was in range just a few minutes ago

#

it was rival and rival handcannon

random nimbus
#

And that's the problem in itself. The fact that nobody knows when exact the deviation even is

#

It just decides NOW and you better hope you didn't aim that far

remote moss
#

yeah, unintuitive as shit

random nimbus
#

More like poorly designed

#

There's no way to account for deviation, so it's not unintuitive

#

You can't explain or train yourself to account for it. It's RNG

remote moss
#

you... can though? its just limited to training range

random nimbus
#

Not when you don't know when the deviation is going to kick in or how badly

#

That makes it RNG

remote moss
#

i feel like im fundamentally missing something youre saying here

#

its unintuitive because the only way to learn the actual distance is through manual labor in training range because they dont give us a stat for it

#

its completely consistent in how it functions?

dim ibex
#

its not consistent

#

its random

remote moss
#

its consistent in that you dont have to worry about it at 30m, which is probably where it starts to drop off

#

just aim normally up to that range

random nimbus
#

Unintuitive describes something not easily understood or grasped by instinct, requiring explanation or training. You cannot train your bullet to hit where you want when it starts deviating. It goes where the game decides

#

Nobody knows where it starts deviating, or how strong the deviation cone even is.

remote moss
#

ok, learning to compensate for the deviation is unintuitive, but its still just 30m. while the deviation itself is random, there

random nimbus
#

That's honestly the best way to describe deviation is that it turns your ADS line into a cone, and you don't know where that cone starts or how wide it gets

#

It's tighter spread dualies as ADS

remote moss
#

lol

random nimbus
#

Except you can't account for it like you could when sighting in a scope

remote moss
#

AHA

random nimbus
#

If every gun had this concept, it'd be one thing

remote moss
#

I CAN FINALLY TELL YOU SOMETHING

#

wait no i cant

random nimbus
#

You cannot account for the game deciding "Ooop it flew off the side now"

remote moss
#

You can't beat me

random nimbus
#

"Too bad so sad"

distant sentinel
#

knowing is only half the battle

upbeat lark

remote moss
#

fuck

upbeat lark
#

Is the game have server issues rn for you guys

remote moss
#

goddamn, im probs just dumb

upbeat lark
#

i can not even walk

random nimbus
#

If the only way you can account for it is to not be at that range, but nobody knows what that range is, then how can you account for it?

#

And why should that even be a thing in general?

#

Nobody likes their bullets not going where they aim when they ADS

remote moss
#

manual labor in training range is how you account for it, i g? i dunno when they added deviation but its kinda too bad for sniping heads

random nimbus
#

How do you train for the game deviating less or more at any range?

remote moss
#

limiting the two tap range wouldve been a better call, dont know why they wanted to nerf one of the skill mechanics making shotgun more viable

remote moss
random nimbus
#

So that means that, beyond whatever that range is, which was 25m when I tested it, you cannot rely on your bullet hitting where you aim past that point?

remote moss
#

30m, if we're going off what i tested, and mine were for headshots

#

and yes, you cant. at 35m, i hit 90% of my headshots, but deviation would kick in

random nimbus
#

That makes it RNG

remote moss
#

past that, its RNG, yes

random nimbus
#

And that is a bad balancing mechanic in a shooter when limited to two bullet types vs balancing them by their stats

#

If every gun dealt with it, fine. I'd still hate it but at least everything plays by the same rules

#

But slugs and nitro only? Yeah, lazy and poorly designed balancing tool

remote moss
#

and effective

#

nitro went back to hipfire crutchers or ads holding a fucked angle instead of players just running in the open and one tapping people for free

#

people got skill issue'd because there was no way for them to learn how to compensate for deviation without the manual labor in training range

#

compensate for the RNG, whatever you mean

lofty sinew
#

isn't the point of deviation simply that you aren't supposed to be trying to rely on that weapon and ammo combination because it is a balance issue

random nimbus
#

Making bullets disappear at a certain range by bullet type is effective too. Doesn't mean it's a good thing

lofty sinew
#

at that range.

random nimbus
#

Something can be effective and also be stupid to do

mild flower
#

While also omegabuffing buckshot

random nimbus
#

It's not a skill issue to lose to RNG when you ADS. That's quite literally the oppsosite of a skill issue because the interaction is out of your hand

lofty sinew
#

the skill is in knowing not to expect reliability at that range

random nimbus
#

That's a stupid concept when you ADS.

remote moss
#

the skill is in knowing at what point your shot will miss while aiming center mass, and not aiming center mass

mild flower
random nimbus
#

That's not skill, that's rolling the dice

remote moss
#

no, theres a 100% chance of it landing up to a certain range, it physically can not miss except for human error

random nimbus
#

And what is that range?

remote moss
#

rolling the dice is hoping it lands once deviation starts to be a bitch

lofty sinew
#

they can just make slug damage falloff absolutely abysmal instead I guess. I don't care. it has to be balanced arbitrarily somehow

remote moss
#

ill go check rn

#

havent used nitro in years

random nimbus
#

Slug two tap range was always kinda nonsense

#

Part of that balance was the fact it also didn't aimpunch

mild flower
#

Then it's accountable for

lofty sinew
#

well, i already said i don't really care how they do it. But obviously slugs covering both CQC and rifle range is a problem

#

that is what is being balanced

random nimbus
#

But to make all headshots a kill and then say 'Alright, you can't rely on your shot hitting when you aim at their head' is possibly the dumbest idea you could imagine

mild flower
remote moss
random nimbus
#

There's a reason slugs have largely died out in favor of buckshot

#

Slugs getting the slap treatment while buckshot just gets better

lofty sinew
#

because they have no practical place in the games meta.

random nimbus
#

They do, but Crytek is poor at balancing

#

They've ALWAYS struggle to get slugs right

#

And we knew that would probably be the case when we first saw them

mild flower
#

They don't right now BECAUSE crytek sucks at balancing

random nimbus
#

Well, I mean they have a place, but Crytek refuses to actually balance stuff with an idea in mind

remote moss
#

tf, looks like nitro has the same deviation start of 30m

dim ibex
#

yep

random nimbus
#

They just swing the bat and keep beating. Looking at you, HV

dim ibex
#

nitro was hit hard

mild flower
mild flower
remote moss
#

so you cant really headshot with nitro past 30m. thats not considering the guaranteed bodyshot yet, hold on

random nimbus
#

Nitro torso one taps at 44m and it deviates 14m before that? lol

dim ibex
#

lol

random nimbus
#

Shredder is 54m one tap so that's gonne be even more oof

dim ibex
#

shredder is really strong close quarters

remote moss
#

at center mass, nitro hits upper chest 100% of the time at 41m

#

nitros killing at 41m, not 44m

dim ibex
#

but if a tiny piece of 4x4 is in the way

#

gg

random nimbus
#

They must have nerfed the range then

#

Used to be 44m

remote moss
#

ill check 54m in a sec

#

yea, its same as slug two tap range for some reason

random nimbus
#

Though shredder was 74m years ago

lofty sinew
#

i think most of the balance problems come from crytek just keeping things that have no place in the balance they're trying to aim for. slugs are in that category. the nitro is also. Revive bolt as well. Is there a way to balance them. Maybe. Is the easiest solution just to straight up remove them? yes.

mild flower
dim ibex
random nimbus
#

For revive bolts, the best decision was to remove them absolutely

dim ibex
#

and i agree rival feels better cqc

#

nitro shredder does have its moments

mild flower
dim ibex
#

you can hold longer angles and still one tap

mild flower
dim ibex
#

you also can hit arms and still kill them with bleed

random nimbus
#

I haven't tested the limb damage change for shredder

dim ibex
#

well i mean anything below 20m i would say is cqc

random nimbus
#

It used to be a free kill at 10m to the arm with bleed

remote moss
#

at 54m, nitro hits upper chest 100% of the time. its deviation is much better than slugs, even if it starts sooner

dim ibex
random nimbus
#

I would imagine it probably kills now with the limb damage change

dim ibex
#

but withing 10 your good to let teh bleed do the work

The bleed was unstoppable at 10m

remote moss
#

yeah so it works fine. in all the nitros one tap ranges, it will still land and one shot as long as you aim center mass

random nimbus
#

Was like 147 damage with intense bleed, and you could not stop the tick without bloodless

remote moss
#

the deviation kicks in to punish player skill for being imprecise and not aiming upper chest level

random nimbus
#

'Imprecise' when you're talking about being more accurate lol

remote moss
#

yes, if you arent aiming center mass, deviation will fuck you over

#

in other words, youre rewarding player skill so now players actually need to aim better than usually for results

lofty sinew
#

I would agree all weapons should be repeatably accurate. And if a weapon is too strong if it is, then it is just a poor choice for addition to the game.

remote moss
#

the downside is that its not intuitive to learn to compensate for this RnG

random nimbus
#

Aiming at the head, the more precise location, will potentially miss through RNG. Yeah, good mechanic lol

whole girder
remote moss
#

very effective mechanic

random nimbus
#

And very dumb

mild flower
random nimbus
#

If you need to get rid of a car, you can drive it into a lake or sell it. Both are effective, one is clearly dumber

remote moss
mild flower
#

I wouldn't complain

remote moss
#

a good player would just aim better or acknowledge that their aim blew if they choked it

lofty sinew
# whole girder do you think avto is "too strong"

i think it is an awkward concept for a gun considering the era and the gameplay Hunt showdown seems to aim for and personally would be totally fine with it being removed from the game completely. Too strong? it's oppressive in a good players hands in some situations. but that isn't my beef with it.

remote moss
#

you cant control the rng, so control the player skill aspect of aiming center mass until the deviation makes it impossible to succeed

#

ez

random nimbus
#

That's the most assbackwards reasoning I've heard in a while

mild flower
remote moss
random nimbus
#

Which RNG is not.

remote moss
#

200mv is within the confines of player skill

#

600mv is easier, more consistent

#

can still perform the same with high player skill, fr fr

random nimbus
#

And the nitro is 550ms, iirc, meaning it's designed to also be a decent range performing weapon.

remote moss
#

yes, so you dont have to lead as much for the easy center mass one taps

random nimbus
#

Except it's been butchered by a mechanic called RNG past a certain point

#

That no other rifle has to deal with

remote moss
#

the only issue with nitro is that quickscoping means you can not see their movement before you shoot. you have to estimate and fire

#

yes, you now need to aim center mass to compensate for it

#

or else youll miss, and aiming center mass is within reasonable realms of player skill

random nimbus
#

And if they're beyond center mass kill range?

remote moss
#

theyre already outside one tap kill range

#

lol

random nimbus
#

Meaning it's a poor balancing mechanic

#

Every weapon is balanced by headshots always killing.

#

Saying 'No headshot for you' because you dared to aim past torso one tap range is just laughable XD

remote moss
#

its a great balancing mechanic, nitro went from a crutch weapon into needing more aim to succeed with it

#

side effect of not being able to headshot

#

ill take that trade for a one tap at 50m with shredder with relatively low effort, just bad visibility

random nimbus
#

'Needing more aim' when the more accurate shot is now unreliable lol

#

Backwards logic is backwards

remote moss
#

unreliable because you need to center mass for it to land, yes

lofty sinew
#

i mean the point of guns like the nitro wasn't to need to be standing next to the rhinocerous or whatever you were trying to kill i don't think

remote moss
#

yeah then itd go back to broken nitro days, its better this way unfortunately

#

some mosin shitter who cant compete even with spitzer just needs to swap to nitro and bam

random nimbus
#

Or you can balance the weapon by its stats vs introducing RNG

remote moss
#

easy one taps

#

what kinda stat balance are you looking for?

random nimbus
#

Ain't no way you think people jumped to nitro when they struggled with Mosin

remote moss
#

lower the one tap range?

random nimbus
#

One is very clearly easier than the other

#

And it wasn't the nitro

remote moss
#

are you joking, nitro was the #1 crutch weapon next to explosive crossbow for ease of use

random nimbus
#

....

remote moss
#

you run in the open, one tap someone trying to peek you

random nimbus
#

We live in different games.

remote moss
#

shit, i felt dirty as hell abusing it

#

thats what i do now with semi auto, its a little harder but its the same idea

upbeat lark
#

Nitro with the devil card is disgusting

remote moss
#

use a strong weapon, position in a way to bait them to peek, then punish

random nimbus
#

You saw the explosive crossbow one in a turquois moon

#

Mosin is still every match

remote moss
#

yeah its a base level of consistency

#

and when youre having an off day even with a weapon as consistent as mosin

#

you swap to the even easier ones

random nimbus
#

And if one isn't very consistent, it's not very good, is it?

#

The potential strengths of the explosive crossbow were far lower than the Mosin

#

It was a nuisance more than it was effective

spark plaza
#

amogus

remote moss
#

sure but it was easy to make effective, free damage and making them dead to rifle even in cover

random nimbus
#

Then why was it never used?

#

Because it wasn't very good.

remote moss
#

popularity, cause people are dumb

#

i saw plenty of premade trios swap to it on bad days

random nimbus
#

Popularity doesn't matter when people are sweating their asses off looking for the most effective tool

#

It wasn't used because it wasn't very good

remote moss
#

effective my ass. ignore spitzer for one second, and youll find that krag performs better than mosin

#

and people still use base mosin, cause they somehow suck with spitzer even in high mmr

random nimbus
#

Mosin was and still is because it's always been good

remote moss
#

high level players my ass

lofty sinew
#

how can you suck with the ammo that is closer to hitscan :S

remote moss
#

they just beat you with better coordination while sitting to punish your impatient fuckups half the time

random nimbus
#

Spitzer makes the Mosin better. The Krag is good but even without spitzer it wouldn't be used more than the Mosin

#

Mosin can lower torso with Krag damage. If it lost spitzer, mosin would still be everywhere

remote moss
random nimbus
remote moss
#

nah, a lot of fights are just one team punishing another team for worse positioning

lofty sinew
#

don't worry, i can solve the balance concerns with a new and exciting mechanic - misfires and jams

#

sometimes good players make bad decisions cause they want to play the game

random nimbus
#

No, this isn't Tarkov

#

No gun jamming plz

lofty sinew
#

how am i going to ruin hunt if nobody listens to my terrible suggestions

remote moss
#

every time you get downed, your gun jam % goes up by 10%

i still need to learn to wallbang in hunt again. havent been getting enough time to get my practice in, too used to visual cues

random nimbus
#

I wallbang everything

#

Gotten some ugly headshots just spamming where I hear things

remote moss
#

what, with long ammo?

#

not properly abusing the fmj spam meta, i see

random nimbus
#

Regular long ammo and spitzer, but I wallbang with everything that can do it

#

Buckshot, compact. Anything

remote moss
#

thats the way

random nimbus
#

I cannot run without pen

#

It legit pains me

spark plaza

lofty sinew
#

just shoot at things. i don't even wait for obvious noise. I just decide i'm nostradamus sometimes

remote moss
#

i cant stand normal compact and medium ammo. fmj is a beast

lofty sinew
#

granted i feel like them actually being inside the building you are shooting ups your chances a bit

lofty sinew
#

you mostly know right. they're in there someplace. is there anything better than getting a hitmarker when you just shoot a random part of a wall or whatever? no. it always feels mildly illegal. but you're getting away with it.

random nimbus
#

Just go for it

#

Worst that happens is you miss

#

Unless you run out of ammo

remote moss
#

you havent known true pain unless youve run out of ammo after two ammo boxes

#

you can have 90 compact fmj shots

#

and its still not enough to win

deep snow
#

Headshot x)

random nimbus
#

"Take that, Wall!"

remote moss
#

also compact fmj resupply is actually insane

#

so you get like 40 shots with marathon, then a secondary for like 24

#

64, then 20 per ammo box

But yeah at close range you gotta be ready to end that fight immediately

So with bow you gotta either bring a fan pistol, a regular pistol double, or a shotgun, maybe a really good melee weapon

#

At least until you trust your strafe ability and aim to use say a normal pistol single

#

But don't worry about it, I was like that at the start, letting Noone near me, it's a good strategy but if someone gets the drop on you you're not prepared
