homestead is really good

upbeat lark
#

I'm bad with shotguns so I ignore it

half ruin
#

I love the look of the guns

#

the patina is so pretty

whole girder
#

always take scarce weapons

trail spade
#

I dont really care for homestead but wildland is pretty good

#

Then again base cent is really good so

upbeat lark
#

Doesn't even benefit for me to take it cause I am grinding prestiges so I can't even hoard the thing

half ruin
#

lul

#

maybe one day I'll drink the prestiege kool-aid again

whole girder
#

thats a different story

whole girder
#

prestiging is overrated

#

honestly

half ruin
#

but I've been having much more fun playing Hunt: Lootdown

sick bramble
#

atleast tell us what does it say in english

half ruin
#

if I server wipe and you have mythics, I'm taking them shits

upbeat lark
#

With that random skin dice

half ruin
#

thats why I stopped at 10

upbeat lark
#

And I want the shiny frames

half ruin
#

you don't get another skin gamba for like 30 levels

#

and honestly I feel like I got pretty lucky with my rolls

#

Servant of the Void, Giggles, Blue Katana Skin, and Polar Star Nagant

trail spade
#

Im prestieging because I have nothing to do and I can just play different weapons to get better at the game

upbeat lark
#

So far I got a

#

The viking a Lebel skin and a bornheim match skin

rain field
#

Hi, does anyone know why this is happening? Every time I try to buy blood titles, this appears.

upbeat lark
#

Funny thing is both the Lebel and bornheim match is the bird one

trail spade
upbeat lark
#

Oof

upbeat lark
#

I got 2 lebel skin now quite sad but I kinda like the look better than the bp one

whole girder
#

that's the best thing you can do

remote moss
#

i wonder how often the invisible prefires happen on high ping

#

only ever happened to me before the trade window changes

#

being personally on high ping be chilling even if i just hold angles against the peekers advantage thing

#

way whittyyy shows it, makes it seem like its commonplace for high ping advantage

-> guy gets dolch and mosin
-> i lever him to death
-> guy gets a crown & king auto & dolch
-> i lever him to death
-> guy gets a nitro
-> i lever him to death

#

i dont know how im supposed to move on from levering, its the strongest trait in the game lol

short halo
humble lynx
#

why would i play with campers

#

im trying to play the game as a "deathmatch" simulator

#

not a bush simulator ๐Ÿ˜‰

#

to be fair im pretty new and i have 3 stars elo right now so you are probably right

short halo
#

Not sure why you're correlating camping to high mmr because the majority of 6* that I run into are agressive Shift W players

whole girder
#

if you're having fun with levering

#

you best believe you will climb up fast to 6*

#

and when i meet you there

#

ill make sure you hate levering โค๏ธ

#

Like, you see people running in hunt ?
That's impossible.

anyone know when this event is ending?

16ish days from now

remote moss
#

i trust hunt players, fr fr

trail spade
#

You can absolutely abuse high ping

remote moss
#

it was honestly chilling, higher win rate than peeking, even with my theoretical high ping disadvantage with an invisible peek

#

but you know, punishing someone for peeking with a prefire isnt exactly high skill

trail spade
#

Idk bro I played a few games on US

#

You can literally peak and shoot before they see you

remote moss
#

then keep doing it

trail spade
#

No

remote moss
#

eu has all the drama, na needs some spice

#

no no listen

#

you need to prove it to us

trail spade
#

Nah

remote moss
#

keep peeking, its fun

trail spade
#

I dont care

#

Tbh everyone has some sort of personal bias towards things, Hunt is no exception

#

I believe you can abuse high ping but its not a instant win tech.

Then again mby NA players are just bad evil_laugh

remote moss
#

id say that na players are just bad

#

they do funny things like dry peek you with mosin

#

i cant believe youd actually peek in a game like hunt

trail spade
#

Nothin better than a lil bit of banter between EU and NA

remote moss
#

whats funny is that of lot of my eu games end up with both teams being passive but someone gets instantly headshot cause theyre crouchwalking next to a tree or some shit

#

and then its suddenly a 3v2 rush when they suddenly want to do something

trail spade
#

Yeah

remote moss
#

its hard not to use meta

#

1v1s arent the issue, its having an option to deal with 1v2s and 1v3s without just running away and then holding a 3m angle with pennyshot kinda stuff

#

with meta, you got comfort, safety. dont have to worry about stupid rushes

#

just farm them with semi auto. or play in a range where youll one tap with shotgun no matter how they try to push

trail spade
#

Honestly ?

#

Id take my chances in a 1 of a million chance flickshot against all odds

#

Than wait in a bush

remote moss
#

peak

#

youre already better than most 6 stars

trail spade
#

Genuinely dont have time to waste playing the vidya game

#

Like if I get "bro I should be studying rather than waiting in this compound" thoughts

#

Smth is really wrong

remote moss

do both

get some chinese teacher on youtube in the background

youll always be focused no matter what the task is

#

the immolator that spawns in that cage got him

#

immo hit the door as he was trying to run for it

remote moss
#

i cant help but notice the way his body fell

trail spade
#

Bro is a medical legend

remote moss
#

maybe a teammate did something to him

remote moss
trail spade
#

Its genuinely sad that I have learned more from a youtuber than my actual professors lol

#

And he is also jacked so he is basically my role model lol

remote moss
#

both got something going for them, fr fr

#

gotta look at it that way to stay sane

trail spade
#

Nah, because it's not trivia. Dude explains the pathophysiology and the useful stuff just better.

And if you know what happens, why it happens is easy

#

Anyway life is too short for bush camping

trail spade
remote moss
#

im just gonna die from doing dumb peeks until i get pissed off enough to play meta again

#

gotta get my KD up to keep ego and spirits high

trail spade
#

The thing is I play what I find fun.. and the issue is I find lebel and dolch skull_cry unironically fun

remote moss
#

I've heard enough.

#

Enjoy yourself, that's all that matters

trail spade
#

Please don't take away my gamer license

remote moss
#

Keep it

#

I'll figure out your play time and hunt you down with maynard silencer

oh shit laptops about to fry

Cya bro

#

Have a good one

pure coyote
#

Dolch...

#

That's like 2018 meta...

dense girder
#

And it still is lol

short halo
#

Dont kid yourself, dolch is still meta and was even more so before its special ammo was made scarce

trail spade
#

Dolch is 100% meta

dense girder
#

Mosin and Dolch P. have been meta for as long as I can think

trail spade
#

You could argue between long ammo bolties but Dolch is just the best pistol hands down

fathom shale
#

While also rivaling even some primary weapons especially with the precision variant

pure coyote
#

Dolch is shit

#

Always was always will be

fathom shale
#

Bait or a personal issue I guess

pure coyote
#

Neither, just facts

fathom shale
#

Sure man whatever you say

pure coyote
#

Havent seen a single good player running a dolch

#

Its just coping mechanism for yall to think you are good

#

shooting semi-auto

XD

fathom shale

A lot of us have dignity to not use it as a crutch

untold stag
pure coyote
#

???

#

Think about what

#

That dolch is shit?

frigid ibex
#

Nagant silencer hands down most op weapon

fathom shale
#

Sure I'll entertain the bait for a while longer, it's shit as opposed to what? What pistols are better?

Other than nagant silencer like Dizz said of course

What pistols are better than the dolch

I will give you a hint, it has a long ammo...

You genuinely think uppercut is better than dolch?

leaden herald

yes

LOL

When it comes to raw stats and performance

Homie you are dead before uppercut cycles the animation

What are we talking about

fathom shale

#

dolch is better in everyway are you not able to use iron sights on other pistols?

pure coyote

Dolch iron sight isn't even that bad

Omg, you are dead before you reload!

Clearly you are running low mmr lobbies

Most likely bait

3rd comment i seen get deleted this shit is censored big time

upbeat lark

A guarenteed bait at this rate

pure coyote
#

No way bro, this is crazy

trail spade
#

Homie wants to express himself aka make other people madge with a awful opinion

pure coyote
#

You guys are probably the same people who were crying about avto being too op and got it nerfed 3x in a row

#

But hey you do you

fathom shale
#

All uppercut has going for it compared to dolch is more damage, other than that it shoots lower, has more bullet drop, worse muzzle velocity, worse reload speed, worse ammo economy, what else

pure coyote
#

XD

pure coyote
trail spade
#

Moving the goalpost + strawman

fathom shale
#

Ahhh the classic just hit head argument

trail spade
#

Derringer is all you need type argument

humble lynx
#

dolch is expensive

#

ive never bought it

trail spade
#

Money doesnt matter for most players

pure coyote
fathom shale
#

No?

humble lynx
copper pier
#

Aim for the head

upbeat lark
#

I guess uppercut/haymaker won in pen and damage but when there's no cover you can consistently hit 2 body on dolch faster than the uppercut can

upbeat lark
#

Tap heads then both can do it just fine

fathom shale
#

Even if one aims for the head doesn't mean they always hit it no matter how good they are

trail spade
fathom shale
#

But if the argument is just "hit the head" it's still literally in dolch's favor lmao

#

It has less bullet drop and better muzzle velocity

#

And has more bullets and reload speed to deal with multiple players even when you do not "just hit the head"

humble lynx
trail spade
#

Dolch P is just in a league of its own

upbeat lark
#

Arguably better iron sight too for me

humble lynx
#

do you prestige guys?

upbeat lark
#

Cause I wanna gamble

zinc apex
trail spade
pure coyote
#

you have 10 bullets = 10 chances to hit head, right?!

humble lynx
#

whats the maximum prestige level?

upbeat lark
#

100

humble lynx
upbeat lark
humble lynx
#

oh

upbeat lark
#

There's a prestige reward that let you get one random skin

zinc apex
#

Yeah those are the best ones

fathom shale
pure coyote
#

@humble lynx I wouldn't prestige if I were you, waste of time at some point, no fancy rewards

upbeat lark
#

My gacha gamer mentality keep screaming "just gamble u might get something good"

pure coyote
#

The only good thing is reseting your game

#

But you will unlock guns the same day anyway

fathom shale
#

I prestiged more for the sake of having things to do and go back to early rank weapons than just rewards, honestly I'm kinda sad that they made almost everything accessible at rank 1 when prestiging

#

I liked being limited to something like the nagant pistol and romero for a bit

zinc apex
#

I'm in the other corner of that one, keep prestiging. It keeps the gameplay loop fresh, try out new kits every prestige. It's a fun way to not get stuck in meta swamp

upbeat lark
#

It's just the gambling addiction playing for me

fathom shale
#

Or well, that was before MMR being what it is so it was enjoyable, these days it would probably suck with facing constant mosin tryhard teams with low end gear

dense girder
fathom shale
#

To some degree maybe

#

Didn't really stop the people who main that shit though

#

They will just sit at rank 100

upbeat lark
#

Don't prestige if you wanna unlock every weapon variants and have all the options open

dense girder
#

Well no, but at least the people who prestige consistently

humble lynx
#

prestige system means i can play the game for 10 years :3

fathom shale
#

Depending how fast you do it

#

You can get P100 under 1k hours pretty easily

humble lynx
#

depending on if you have a job or not

dense girder
upbeat lark
#

It should at least take you 2 years

humble lynx
upbeat lark
#

If you don't have a job and not touch grass

pure coyote
fathom shale
#

With those in mind you can probably squeeze it even lower playtime wise

zinc apex
#

I'm 400 hours in and at prestige 20 with never staying on a rank, but I do be a very average hunter kekW

frigid ibex
#

Prestige is barely a drawback today

pure coyote
#

Crazy take

fathom shale
frigid ibex
#

Weren't you saying dolch was bad

upbeat lark
#

Worst thing it does for me is not let me use my usual loadout but hey you can try more things now things you don't often use

frigid ibex
#

Why is it tryhard now

#

Genuinely confused

humble lynx
#

can i do the new story challenges in the remaining 17 days

#

does anyone know what the new story challenges are? if they're too difficult?

fathom shale

#

That's how you should support your teammates in game

#

Not on discord

#

:S

frigid ibex
#

Why do you need support if you're clicking heads 100% of the time?

#

Is it to get less opponents?

upbeat lark
#

I don't want to put fuel to the fire but if the requirements to be the best pistol in the game is to click heads then bornheim is the second best pistol in the game

pure coyote
frigid ibex
#

Weird, personally I'd want more opponents

pure coyote

I am sure you wipe every single lobby

All on your own

Dolch supremacy right?

Ehh for purely headshots I'd argue bornheim might be better with HV, less bullet drop and more muzzle velocity and with the extended variant you can have 9 bullets loaded anyways

Likely an unpopular opinion, but I genuinely do not think that screenshots showing MMR difference in lobby are relevant as I do not think MMR is a measure of what I'd even consider actual "skill", especially when the screenshots don't even show the people dying to the higher MMR people or better yet show them killing them

Hello

How do you become a moderator?

fathom shale
#

If I have a friend that I want to introduce to the game, the whole point is for us to play together, banter and have fun, why would they or I want to spend the first 200 hours with them not playing with me just so they play against people of "their level"? This normalizing of fake "fair" matches for everyone has ruined a lot of games in my opinion in so many aspects

#

When they rarely end up being 100% fair regardless no matter the game

fathom shale
#

Some games even exploit that to min max playtime/engagement rather than actually try to make their matches fair

I've played games since before SBMM was normalized in games, we enjoyed games just fine, if anything it was a drive for me to get better myself

frigid ibex
#

This feels like you play a party game with non gamers and you try hard instead of letting everyone have fun type of deal. I'd rather every have fun and they won't have fun if there is one person that will win 9/10 games without competition

#

The way I see SBMM in games is imagine liking soccer as a hobby but you're not interested in making it a career, normally you would still play it against whoever you can find to play with and enjoy it casually but now imagine instead they force you to play in the world cup because you got good enough at it through enjoying it casually

I rarely played games with server browsers

frigid ibex
#

Well those were the games without sbmm of what I can remember

astral moss
#

Hello, what are we complaining about today ?

frigid ibex
#

Cod had lobbies, no clue if they had sbmm or not

#

All other games had server browsers, bf3 was even server browser

#

Bf4 too

fathom shale
#

They did, but they weren't required

#

I usually just chose the mode I wanted to play from the main menu and went with it

frigid ibex

Cs go started with server browsers and later joined the matchmaking thing

Even a regular hunt player has some movement that makes them harder to hit. Usually

#

A new player is even easier to kill cause they move in even more static way

fathom shale
#

Obviously the actual new players should be separated for some time, but I've been slapped harder in QP by some 4 stars than I have been in bounty hunt by some 6 stars

frigid ibex

Same but it's criminal how many 1 stars I've fought in qp

I mostly have 4-6 stars whenever I try it

he'll learn faster that way

Will he though??

Not even getting a shot off

Tell him to play the game like cod

in some areas

Idk what you learn from being domed instantly kekW

frigid ibex
#

Yeah

copper pier
#

how to avoid getting domed

frigid ibex

Like you and me, when we die from something we could definitely learn from it

#

But a new player getting instantly domed is harder

copper pier

my friend quit cuz of headshot insta kills

Map knowledge alone is invaluable information in hunt

And you can't even learn the map if you instantly die

I'm a 1 star
And I have to play with 3 to 5 stars aaaall the time, and it's not that hard when you get used to it SadHunter

you're a 1star when you first launch the game

It depends on what you kill, so if you dome a few higher stars ur MMR goes up afaik. Probably not great for new players either if they somehow luck out a few kills on high star players and is thrown into that pit early kekW

tired of seeing 5s and 6s get a free pass into 3-4 lobby because they got a totally "legitimate" 1 star player.

Then again I think the best way to go about it is to just not care and play the game to have fun.

6* isnt even a flex so why do people care ?

i love this suggestion

fathom shale
#

I don't, stars/MMR were never supposed to be some kind of trophy or such nor do I want more ways of having measuring contests in Hunt and encourage cringe playstyles

#

If anything stars should be entirely hidden along with KDA

jaunty patio
#

The second-order effects those kinds of things have aren't usually thought about. If there's any kind of ranking, that turns it from a tool used in matchmaking to a measurement of value. That sort of thing is why they got rid of the leaderboards, people would do insane, weird stuff just to get their name on there. Snipers that would get one kill then extract, and blow themselves up with frags if they were ever threatened.

deep snow
#

x)

#

Tbh not show mmr in lobby it's cringe because people scared because other ppl Can see their mmr omg

jaunty patio
#

That was also a good change, yeah. Back when MMR was visible I had two criteria for dodging randoms when I was 4-5 star. Snipers that didn't seem like team players, and 6 star players that would boost the team's MMR rating and cause us to fight too-powerful enemies. Now that it's gone I just have to suck it up and suffer the 6 star life.

It's so bad

#

You start a game you see you play with a 5*

Let KD but delete the ability to see mmr.

esp if it is anywhere near 2

astral moss

Its only making people coping in the chat.

urban steppe
#

you guys gotta remember
the avg kd in this game is like below 1

#

so if guys are nearing 2 or above

#

๐Ÿคจ

#

either they are absurdly good at the game because they have thousands of hours

or they are using you as bait and offing themselves with a grenade in the corner

astral moss
#

More than 1 KD = cheat or unbeatable.

urban steppe

when they get surrounded

deep snow
#

If u run into a compound with 3 shotgun inside don't be surprise to have 1kd x)

deep snow
#

No but u know what i mean

astral moss
deep snow
#

It's obvious like sometimes if u just run and die obviously ur kd will be "bad"

if they are using a certain loadout

astral moss

I rewrite, let's delete KD too.

I blame the maynard silenced sniper....

this is not overwatch it's different so i understand

but i always wanted something to play for

No diff between overwatch and Hunt.

I want people to push more and use variety of loadouts

deep snow

#

Instead of being scared to peek or use meta loadouts or such because they don't want KDA going down

deep snow
#

I dont want to play with 4-5* because always the same..

sick bramble

so make it that extracting with bounty is what counts towards rank then

urban steppe

Spitzer sniper/marksman lebel or high velo maynard sniper silenced ๐Ÿคฎ

remove kda and mmr and let bounty earned be the rank
