hunt-general

[modern pebble]

i like that length

[remote moss]

gard

eh, pax does look generic for whatever reason

gun has a badass history but doesnt have a certain sleekness from the schofield

i wonder why glocks dont have that problem

[south sorrel]

god damn some of these wall hacks are absurdly blatant, wonder if crytek will catch them

[upbeat lark]

sight i do like pax better but i for some reason keep picking scott over the pax

[south sorrel]

never had LOS at any point and just shooting accurate or near-miss shots constantly

[lavish bear]

audio bro audio

[south sorrel]

it seemed like they were almost mocking the cheat detection, in some cases they could have just gotten vision and taken a plenty safe shot and instead decided to shoot without vision

[remote moss]

i mean, if its a near miss, thats a deliberate choice to make it look less blatant, or its a wallbanger trying to catch you

it is fun to gamble wallbangs

[south sorrel]

or they had wall hacks but no aim hacks and just regular missed

but yeah could have been intentional too

[remote moss]

the current gen of closets dont have the brain for that cause theyre still mad from originally getting caught

can still report him, theyll take a look

[south sorrel]

yeah I did

[remote moss]

might take a while but they usually get banned

[south sorrel]

weirdest fucking fight though, they literally never took non-wall-bangs

spectating was so weird too, just constantly unnecessarily shooting through walls too

and only 4 stars so I dont think its some audio-master giga goat sweat stuff

[remote moss]

sometimes good players get stuck in low mmr for no reason, fr fr. too many things to consider

most cheaters are just ragehacking and just lock onto you, you can avoid them with good movement and dodging instead of moving in straight lines since it doesnt account for lead

[south sorrel]

their open gunfighting before the wall situation was pretty meh

[remote moss]

if youre lucky, they lock onto head instead of body where you just get wallbanged by walls, lol

man, i still remember trying to counter wallbang a cheater

i was shooting rocks that couldnt be wallbanged though

mf was hiding behind them until i stood still or something

[modern pebble]

i really am in garbage lobbies

some dude was running new army pair

🥀

[remote moss]

i mean, its definitely viable

trade consistency of conversion for faster spam so youre never caught off guard

bornheim is the accurate bullshit dualies but takes 3 shots to kill

people are just afraid of not having the extra reserve ammo

[modern pebble]

oh..

[remote moss]

You ruined that poor sod

[modern pebble]

unfortunately i am no longer 1 star

[half ruin]

Solo games?

[modern pebble]

i only solo

[lavish bear]

how bro

[modern pebble]

pr

pro

[spark plaza]

night amogus

[ancient whale]

Most convenient chariot card ever that it made an enemy hunter kill himself because he was cornered.

[young arch]

is queueing just slow rn?

or is West NA queues just fucked from lack of players

[normal kayak]

stop putting me in 3 star

what is this guy honestly looking at

its a 1v1 and i havent slowed down to make less noise once

[dreamy cave]

https://tenor.com/view/sign-eye-roll-big-what-gif-25014172

[cinder token]

What area in the world is it the best to play on?

[modern pebble]

alright

why did no one tell me the sparks pistol is the best weapon in the game

[tepid drum]

that was so stupid

i wish pen was overall better though

[modern pebble]

how did u find that fucking message

[tepid drum]

the nerfs were lame as hell

[tepid drum]

shredder

[modern pebble]

bro searching words

[tepid drum]

i have been to see if anyone talks about the shredder

nobody does really

[abstract violet]

Not much to say, it's just a slightly faster crossbow with slightly more damage

[tepid drum]

yeah

i hope they let us buy it

[abstract violet]

It would be a nice addition to the special weapons assuming it doesn't stay scarce

[normal kayak]

because no one wants to fight more sparks

[tepid drum]

i agree. flame rifle too

both are niche and create interesting fights both using and against

[prime lake]

wish it was easier like get a lot of xp
its just a skin

[abstract violet]

If you really want it you can farm XP relatively safely

[tepid drum]

i just cleared a server then grabbed like 8xp boons

+41 000 xp in one game lol

level 1-50 instantly

[prime lake]

one solo game got me 20 levels

might do it

[abstract violet]

If you go ultra goblin mode and clear the lobby you can loot one hunter, spend the pledge marks you get and then go back and loot the rest. Then rinse and repeat

That's how I completed the spend pledge marks mission in one game

You get a lot of money and XP too

[prime lake]

going goblin then

just gotta not follow the clues right

[lavish bear]

🥀

[modern pebble]

u broke ?

[abstract violet]

Pretty much, just go around killing AI and grabbing XP boons

You can get to lvl 50 in a single match if you farm the whole map

Without having to deal with any other players if you're lucky

I don't like it because it's kinda boring though but it's not too bad if you already have the hunter kind of leveled

I usually just play until I hit lvl 50 in a single match

[modern pebble]

ok bro

lemat carbine is top tier goated

[fleet adder]

Indeed it is

[modern pebble]

also this is legit funny asf to me

ominous ass door

[lavish bear]

WE miss that wallbang

WE do

[modern pebble]

no need to hate smh

[lavish bear]

Im not bro

[prime lake]

BL xp nice

[spark plaza]

solo mmr is weird

[modern pebble]

did u run into a negative star player

[spark plaza]

Either gods or average players

no inbetween

[dusty gorge]

v true

im the godlike player 😏, this bowguy who wiped a team but died to bear not so much

[modern pebble]

ngl theres some doodoo players too

throw of the century for example

it happens tho poor dude

i am just realising something

[dusty gorge]

my typical fanning attempt 😭

[modern pebble]

is he fanning a spitfire

[modern pebble]

if u fan with a damn spitfire i can believe it

[dusty gorge]

i didnt think you could since its a different kind of revolver

[modern pebble]

i didnt know either im ngl

i mean its still a single action

but like the entire point of it is to shoot fast in ads

not hipfire

idk bro

[dusty gorge]

alright im gonna give fanning another go, bringing the swift scottfield..

[modern pebble]

if i can suggest something

it's the trueshot for accuracy

the reload is wayy worse but u know

[dusty gorge]

is the firerate bad

[modern pebble]

you might have to reload less if u hit them

[modern pebble]

nah its not the best but it aint bad

[dusty gorge]

fmj or no

fmj has more recoil

[modern pebble]

i always use fmj on trueshot cuz its basically a straight upgrade

[lavish bear]

Fanning🥀

[modern pebble]

it doesnt lose much mv

[modern pebble]

its lowkey actually good with the trueshot

shit is mega accurate

[lavish bear]

Use fmj if ur someone who goes for wallbangs

If you dont its genuinely useless

[dusty gorge]

gonna test it first here

[modern pebble]

damage retention over range

and also it doesnt have a downside on the trueshot

the mv goes from 410 to 405

[lavish bear]

Ur pistol is literally only useful for follow up

And if ur going for the follow up they r already low so

[dusty gorge]

ok i brung two pistols what then?

[normal kayak]

i sometimes use pax trueshot fanning just because its funny

[modern pebble]

enjoy ur 25 damage out of range shots then

[lavish bear]

Quick swap them

[lavish bear]

I think it’ll kill them anyway bro

[normal kayak]

75m dualies headshot

[dusty gorge]

I wish I was that frosty to play that build rn

non akimbo double pistol build such a style

[lavish bear]

W loadout

[modern pebble]

i bring one pair of pax dumdums and one trueshot fmj

insane aura loadout

[lavish bear]

🥀

[dusty gorge]

that or 1 chainpistol plus 2 chainpistol fmj

maximum bullets

[modern pebble]

three revolvers is aura

cant convince me otherwise

[normal kayak]

officer carbine and anything that can go through more than one thin wall

[dusty gorge]

I was so mad the first time I died to 3 revolver guy and immediately stole the build anyhow

[lavish bear]

Mosin bro mosin

[modern pebble]

where are you running into 3 revolver players

theres only me and like 2 others ever

[dusty gorge]

this one time I did

yeah this sucker is high maintenance, needs practice

[lavish bear]

What is

[dusty gorge]

doing trueshot fanning here

I legit feel like I need to do counterstrike strafe movement between shots, to avoid the smoke obscuring target and to remain somewhat accurate

[lavish bear]

Or

You could js aim

💔

[dusty gorge]

just know where the enemy you can't see is

[lavish bear]

Audio bro audio

[dusty gorge]

at about 8 meter the target is the size of the smoke cloud, ontop of the recoil its pretty disorienting

[lavish bear]

The smoke is insane

I’d rather js aim at ppls head

[dusty gorge]

I got some audio for you, its coming from my butthole 😲

[modern pebble]

?!

wat

[lavish bear]

I guess bro✌️

[turbid perch]

bro can we get rid of Necromancer, Im so sick of dealing with it

down a guy, spend a Split second to heal and he just gets up while the needles in me arm and levers away

[lavish bear]

That might be ur own fault bro

[desert acorn]

At least two of those he was dead center

[lavish bear]

I get the audio but no clip💔

[desert acorn]

That's funny... my friend asked me to remove the audio.

Not sure, but my game has done that to me a number of times lately... dead center, still a miss.

[spark plaza]

Bro why didn't you just katana him 😭

[dusty gorge]

i saw it and you seem real jittery!

[turbid perch]

it was, but the fact that I cant chill for two secs after downing the guy is so annoying... give it a cooldown, something bro at least its a burn perk now but dam its frustrating

[lavish bear]

There is a cooldown

😭

[desert acorn]

I'm a bit jittery. Got a condition

[desert acorn]

Because my friend has a subsonic challenge.

[spark plaza]

It has a 5 sec cool down though

[desert acorn]

It caused me physical pain to not just chop him. Katana highlights are my favorite, and I'm good at positioning.

[turbid perch]

didint feel like 5 secs but hey Im a solo player and I still want it gone, I was robbed in broad daylight

[lavish bear]

Yo solo is so bad

[turbid perch]

its harder, but worth it

[spark plaza]

He had enough time to spear you and lever you, don't think you got robbed there

[lavish bear]

No its not💔

I’d rather js win every game with my team

[dusty gorge]

https://tenor.com/9qLI.gif

[turbid perch]

well some of us like a bit more of a challenge, makes those wins agent mutiple teams that much better when ya get em

[lavish bear]

If i play solos its only solo vs trios

[dusty gorge]

solo is just challenging in a different way due to mmr

[turbid perch]

you had to have seen it bro, was getting rushed and needed a split second to heal, bro gets up and just starts blasting and I couldn't do a dam thing, it was unfortunate.

[lavish bear]

Js shoot back bro wdym

[dusty gorge]

will you stop being cringe

you know who you are

[lavish bear]

Gave bro a suggestion but thats cringe ig🥀

[spark plaza]

Did ya know he was solo beforehand ?

[turbid perch]

same, duo lobby's are just lack luster

[lavish bear]

Duo lobbys r just boring

[turbid perch]

yes, I didint want to heal it was just really bad timeing on my part, but iv bin annoyed with the perk since they added it

[sinful mesa]

Have there been ANY teasers or anything for the next event? Or are we just going to get some default hunt for awhile?

[spark plaza]

We don't know anything so far

[desert acorn]

solo is a stealth based hunting game

[dusty gorge]

even if you fumble it and lose as solo the fights are so interesting

trios fights are just BORING even duos is funner

[lavish bear]

Ig

[spark plaza]

Assume we will get a new event as that's how Crytek operates hunt nowadays

[desert acorn]

If you play solo by storming a compound, even against low mmrs you're likely to lose.

[dusty gorge]

oh boy its 4 teams on map wonder what will happen THE LAST TEAM WINS

[lavish bear]

I usually spawn in and push the first fight i hear then kill the last remaining trio

[spark plaza]

Duo games are genuinely the third party fiesta

[desert acorn]

Smart. Get one team off the map, without getting third-partied.

[lavish bear]

Then i js go for bounty team then either win or get full pushed and die

[dusty gorge]

yeah but in trios its just.. like watching a program for the umpteenth time and you know all the lines of the actors, ya feel me

[spark plaza]

No not really? I could say the same thing about duo's: 6 teams on the map, last team wins!

[lavish bear]

Every match is last team wins bro

[spark plaza]

Duo's in my experience have been just ratty and third parties everywhere

[dusty gorge]

the last team has the most advantage im just being hyperbolic

[lavish bear]

Duos has more rats and trios is alot more popular anyway so

[dusty gorge]

but the fact its like 4 teams of 3 almost everytime, one team engages boss or team, third team shows up, usually wins, fourth team mops or dies, thats the formula.

[lavish bear]

I mean it kinda depends whos in the lobby

[dusty gorge]

duos has more chaos, more solos, more interesting.

well i normally don't play trios, but I've given it a shot for a week, and thats my experience.

[spark plaza]

The problem you're describing is just exacerbated in duo's don't know how you find that more fun

[lavish bear]

You need a good pre set trio for trios

Randoms are the worst thing oat

[dusty gorge]

the fact its not solo also encourages me to not have that much fun thats just personal preference tho

[dusty gorge]

the problem for me isnt x partying its the fact I know how every map's state is almost 100% all the time, thus boring, get me?

game becomes a solved walking simulator, a giant bounty clash

anyway if you like it thats fine i'll lay off

[lavish bear]

Nothing wrong with a bunch of pvp

[dusty gorge]

i actually think trios would improve from my perspective if it had more teams

didnt someone say they were kicking about that idea

[spark plaza]

I guess we have different opinions on how games go, I personally have different outcomes all the time. No two games are the same

[dense quartz]

i'd still love to see a 6v6 teamfight mode for clash, like Gang Wars from RDR

[lavish bear]

🥀

[whole furnace]

It would deeply unserious, but that would be fun

[dusty gorge]

thats alright, heres my fumbling of a 1v3 earlier 😁

[desert acorn]

I was trying to discuss the difference between "meta" and OP. Someone called me "regarded" because I cited Rexnor as a source. You can probably guess what the topic was.

[half ruin]

fell out of 4* because I got farmed 5 times in a match by a 6* solo

I might be mega ass

[dusty gorge]

solo is so much fun i dont even care about losing badly half the time

[dusty gorge]

perchance it was bows

[desert acorn]

indeed

[dusty gorge]

the weapon that has a lowskill ceiling and a high one at the same time

kind of hard to rate that thing

[lavish bear]

yo😭

[dusty gorge]

the fact I have to yell at my team to be wary about a bow user means its probably good

[prime lake]

prob my best match ever
i love this game

[lavish bear]

do you like js farm grunts bro

[prime lake]

it was a teams of 3 game

with 2 bosses

i believe 2 trios teamed bcs they were escaping together

we happened to be close, sniped em, etc

got melee rushed again tho

[desert acorn]

It's strengths are super strong. it's weaknesses are super weak

[dusty gorge]

I feel like the bowgods can just ignore the fact it makes you slow and immobile cause they are so comfy with it

and the range

so in a perfect scenario its basically OP

[viral blaze]

fkn bows besting shotties

[dreamy bloom]

Hunt economy is messed up

Too much money

[raven totem]

have you tried prestiging?

[untold stag]

I lose most the time and still have money.

A guy I met from here who I thought was good was out of money somehow

Don't understand that honestly

[royal cloak]

I lost all of my money

[untold stag]

I'm at like 14k. Not alot

[desert acorn]

In a certain scenario, katana is better.

Can't spam any attacks past short range.

No pen.

Only ohk if you pull it long enough

slow ah muzzle velocity.

[whole furnace]

Long enough, like 0.15s

[remote moss]

well, a lot of bad players cant really capitalize against the fact you can only slow peek or angle hold with bow

[raven totem]

preferable tools and consumables add up fast.

[remote moss]

so its not that much a downside, just hard if youre playing against more aggressive shotguns or something

[raven totem]

pffft you're not allowed to say that

[remote moss]

listen, if i have to be nice in voip, at least let me be mean where they cant hear it

[raven totem]

lol

[rigid field]

Organically made teams arent against the rules right?

[raven totem]

right

[rigid field]

ok good thank you

[raven totem]

np

[remote moss]

its always technically organic if you just queue at the same time

its funny watching the regular 6 star solos team up with each other against worse players, ngl

[rigid field]

we noticed the bounty escaping after a 3 way fight, so we helped the other guy res his teammate then chased the bounty, cornered them, and killed them

asked here just to double check

[untold stag]

This game really don't have rules. That's basically the point

Besides the obvious stuff

[tepid drum]

has anybody else noticed that water bottles are the only world objects that work with surefoot?

I think that they were originally supposed to be a tool

[untold stag]

Could be.

Maybe that's how we were gunnu put out fire originally

[upbeat wraith]

Game broken please fix

[lavish bear]

what fov is this bro

[spark plaza]

80 I think

[tepid drum]

10

[dusty gorge]

the gamers that fov with the convenience store ceiling mirror piss me off more

smaller fov bigger target y'know 😏

[untold stag]

U guys can't see behind urself?

[upbeat wraith]

85, the minimum. Tbh its default setting and just never changed it

[mortal basin]

I max out my FoV right after I turn off motion blur

Every time I buy a new game

[upbeat wraith]

Its what im used to in every game i prefer low fov

[dusty gorge]

https://tenor.com/7sGT1VoCt4.gif

the fish gaming experience

[lavish bear]

[royal cloak]

Still banned

[lavish bear]

yk it bro

[desert acorn]

Gonna prestige tonight, so thought I'd clash with all my leveled up hunters. have 10. 2 in, not going well.

[lavish bear]

what prestige

[desert acorn]

going to 13

Because this is my first shooter in awhile, I came in awful at the game. Prestige helps me learn

[lavish bear]

cold cold

[desert acorn]

moon card on clash doesn't make any difference if your team doesn't listen to your callouts.

[half ruin]

I always go with 90 in my games

[remote moss]

moon cards for your sake so you have a good idea of where theyre at so you dont fucked, fr

[desert acorn]

yeah. Solo, it works out better.

[half ruin]

strikes a nice balance between vision and looking decent

[desert acorn]

Can't use it at the start, though.

[half ruin]

motion blur is so real tho

[remote moss]

popping moon like a regen shot, smh

always pop moon at start to bait people into trying to ambush or predict you, fr

then spend 4 minutes going all the way around through black zone and ambush the ambushers getting ambushed by an ambush team of rats

[desert acorn]

I use it when I get to the perimeter.

[half ruin]

I keep that thang on me (world cards)

[desert acorn]

Moon or empress are the only ones I take in with me. I guess if I have packmule, it would make sens to brine more.

[half ruin]

I just like rushing the boss straight away

at least in trios

or after we get a clue so people with conduit aren't sad

[dreamy bloom]

So easy to make money, which is why youre having ppl running mosin dolch every game. Gone are the days when bounty meant more and you had to earn to bring good weapons.

[half ruin]

I'm glad hunt dollars don't hold too much meaning

[desert acorn]

Clash mode sucks

Bunch of CoD players, trying to get quick spawn kills

[raven totem]

you mean the same fucking people that ran mosin dolch everygame back then as well?

crytek tried the reduced money thing for a short bit and hopped off of it. they clearly saw something they didn't like.

[dreamy bloom]

Nah its a lot more now, grinding the game easy for money and then sweating with full loadouts cuz its so easy

Even just running into the game and escaping with the tarot cards gives 450 minimum

[desert acorn]

They gotta give something that costs more money, so people will spend it.

something vain.

[static briar]

I hope one day they change a lot of the inspect animations to just be for weapon categories rather than specific weapons, why does the pistol spin only work on one revolver :(((

[upbeat wraith]

To make money. That way they can sell animations individually for every items

[whole furnace]

The live-service paradox:
Every money-sink reward is one less sale that could have been made with MTX.

[desert acorn]

Right... but overall, it would add stakes. They had the right idea with the "spend a million" prestige card.

[whole furnace]

For sure and I would say, if Crytek could afford it, solidfying a meta-loop with hundreds of hours spent to earn free cosmetics would help Hunt's in its staying power.

[desert acorn]

Definitely. Even older hunters that've been decomissioned. Many disliked their removal, but the retention rate of this game is low because it's brutal.

[whole furnace]

Prestige is a half solution to such, but just have too high of a barrier to entry for most people.

[whole furnace]

Game also being brutal ofc also is an issue and why I am so puzzled that they made Clash a high stakes mode akin to Hunt.
(Losing your hunter/gear/money auto-matically makes it as high stakes as normal BH).

[desert acorn]

Finally the game is growing. But it's growing slow.

[prime lake]

Was playing solo about to extract and some mf flipped the extraction points

[whole furnace]

I'm my perfect Hunt, Clash would be a no exp/money gained/lost mode, but with all random loadouts.
Make people completely free of losing anything

[dreamy cave]

https://tenor.com/view/ha-ha-the-simpsons-nelson-muntz-lol-funny-gif-20386320

[prime lake]

Nah meta hell

Me with double nagant rng

[whole furnace]

Meta hell? How would it be meta hell if it was all random?

[desert acorn]

I tried to do that for myself once, while within the final 5 minutes. I've forgotten about that twice now. Second time I lost my hunter.

[desert acorn]

Double nagant at close range with dds, or poison, is terrifying.

So are most pistols. Except sparks. Cause you're probably gonna miss with at least one.

I think I'm gonna solo clash the rest of the way. Trying to play with teams is aggressive, and they don't think through their plays

matchmaking apparently is a thing in clash now, too.

[desert acorn]

I missed a lot of the game when I had VC disabled

Had an interesting glitch earlier. Did a contact ress like I was using necro.

Funny thing is, I had already burned necro

[signal cliff]

i want a gun charm of this >

is that too much to ask?

[dusty gorge]

yes

sorry

[signal cliff]

but come on, they made the red shirts target a charm, its only a matter of time before we get the baby red barrel lol

[half ruin]

Just wanna drop in and say damn I love the mako

Is it a worse krag in almost every way? Yes

But I like lever guns

[ancient whale]

I main the crap out of it

[half ruin]

Pair that bad boy with a sparks pistol and you’re eating good

Ammo wise

[dusty gorge]

the ironsights are godlike

[ancient whale]

The blade is a little too fat for my liking but yeah it's good

[upbeat wraith]

I hear gunshot coming from circus so i head over there then hear a player die to the bear. I finish off the bear and check for corpse to find the guy dead over his teammate. Both died to bear...

What are we doing

[short halo]

Dying to bear

[upbeat wraith]

In 6s lobby too...

[mortal cove]

Dying Light: Ursa Mortis edition

[peak jacinth]

Looks like they tried the "how many guys we need to take down a gorilla" but Ursa Mortis edition

[whole furnace]

Would you rather fight a Ursa sized Hellhound or 10 hellhound sized Ursas?

[desert acorn]

All them charging at you? Do they still get knockdown? And is their health the same?

[left orbit]

sounds like me yesterday

was it yesterday?

[upbeat wraith]

No more like an hour ago

[left orbit]

eh then no

[desert acorn]

My mmr dropped yesterday because I've been jittery and not landing my shots. So I played solo against Trios, expecting a less experienced lobby. Everybody has a higher mmr than I do, only they're duos and trios.

[upbeat wraith]

Ok seriously lol

It happened again

This time i got there and managed to kill at least one before they all died to ursa. Ursa charged at him and i finished him off as he was getting back up lol

[upbeat wraith]

Today its been the opposite for me, im in 6s and usually get 5-6s but today ive been getting mostly 2-3s

Maybe thats why they all dying to ursa

[desert acorn]

oof. Poor 2s and 3s.

[desert acorn]

lol

I'm about a 4, but I have a condition that kicks in if I play too much, and I play like crap. But I want to keep playing, and it started actually 3 days ago.

What I need is a break, but I haven't taken it.

[upbeat wraith]

To be fair its also 4am rn so low playerbase and they probably just put anyone to fill lobby

[desert acorn]

Yeah. and the sweats are more likely to play

My nerves are shot, so I actually did stop playing for a bit just now. But I think I need a few days off.

Honestly, not sure if it's from the game itself, or just from the stress of life.

I think I'll play Valheim. Build a house. I haven't beat the first boss, so I won't get assaulted by trolls

At least I got a few wins. Prestiged tonight, and wanted to level up a bit before bed, but I feel awful.

[upbeat wraith]

Idk if thats what youre dealing with but i met a few people that got stressed just from playing games. They had uncontrollable shaking in their hands

[soft marten]

man i wished i recorded that one round yesterday

i snuck up on someone in 1v3 and he was sitting in the bush but i heard his silencer shot so i bonked him with the railhammer then his teammate shot me xD

tho its cool cuz i need now only one more kill with it to unlock page 2 of the Krampus quest

[dusty gorge]

sorry man my friend has the same issue with nerves being shot I feel ya, acclimating and breaks help a lot.

[soft marten]

then in a round trio vs trio with my friends i snuck into a building where the enmies were my friends distracted them and guess what, i killed someone of the enemy team with the hammer again but he also got me with the katana

i couldn't contain my laughter cuz its so good to see others also going absolutely bazoonks with the katana

[dusty gorge]

when I'm back from a hunt break its anxious getting back into the groove of it, but short periods of gametime help and long play periods make it worse

[soft marten]

what irritated me a bit is i yesterday had at a few points some frame drops but idk what caused it

[desert acorn]

Well, since I dropped MMR, when I come back it'll be easy mode for awhile. I was wiping trios for a week without too much trouble, before I jumped up, and then it kicked in again. I was a fool to play with higher mmr teams as long as I did. Solo I can move at my own pace, and Clash I can slowly push a compound. I play this game for immersion, but I think I got overloaded.

I've been knocked back down, and playing just as badly.

[upbeat wraith]

Thanks for the assist

[desert acorn]

People yell at me to lower my mouse sensitivity. It's not even that.

[desert acorn]

Very dangerous to fight the bear as a solo.

[dusty gorge]

team gameplay feels like being being tugged by the ear by all the incentives to help them n shit while losing in solo feels better then winning in trios ngl

[upbeat wraith]

He wasnt a solo, his teammate already died to ursa

[desert acorn]

hahahahaha

[desert acorn]

Just randoms. I have two good friends who play quiet and smart. We don't aim for a high kill count, but we aim for a win. Sometimes that means a team wipe or two, or fighting a solo to the death. I prefer to extract with bounty and at least a kill.

I have two other friends who are impatient as hell. One of them whines like a child when he gets dropped, so I throw, and we start again. Stresses me out. If you let me play at my speed, I usually clutch.

[upbeat wraith]

Ive only ever played once with randoms and one of them killed the other guy. Then he shot me and we traded

[desert acorn]

Also, the one who doesn't whine plays like he can respawn, and gets killed quick.

[upbeat wraith]

Been playing solo or with irl friend only since then

[desert acorn]

My first match with a rando he negotiated with and enemy duo or trio, then murdered them and made me an accesory.

Left a bad taste in my mouth, so I've been playing solo or with friends I know.

[dusty gorge]

sounds like a game of tarkov

i feel wrong just bringing that nightmare up

I gave trios randos a week of patience and in the end It's a net negative experience but it had its moments surpringly

[dawn zinc]

Watching whityyy's latest video got me thinking maybe it would be better if it was only possible to see a the bounty icon of a downed hunter in dark sight or something

It's so easy to wallbang a bounty carrier when they get rezzed

[heavy finch]

sure is. But then again. fk house campers.

[desert acorn]

Reddit just suggested something GOOD! Not had that happen often.

Magician card near the edge of a compound when people are camping inside... concertina-losers, mostly.

[dawn zinc]

It isn't necessarily just campers though

And it's just another reason having the bounty is a negative

[heavy finch]

mostly id say. if you werent camping you would be out there able to shoot at the guy rather than just ressing and hoping he doesnt wallbang 😉

having bounty is bad in a really small area. but instinct is so good + 5 seconds of scan

[dawn zinc]

Dying in a rezzable spot as opposed to in the open is just smart. Not really indicative of a camper

[desert acorn]

magpie?

[heavy finch]

10 seconds is goated 😄

[desert acorn]

When I'm solo, Magpie is a given.

[heavy finch]

ofc. but im saying. the people that get insta wallbanged are usually playing really passive. normally a 6 star team will blow everything up with nades at the same time as the rez

[heavy finch]

depends on my hunter level. if i come out with like 20-30 points it will be there. but ill remove it as it fills up

[desert acorn]

I like to bring poppers, and use them to bring two enemy teams camping my compound together.

[dawn zinc]

In a lot of cases the wallbang at that point is pretty easy anyways but with the giant bounty icon it's basically impossible not to kill them instantly on rez

[heavy finch]

definetly hard. you can always res on the wallbang side while looking down to not get headshot

[desert acorn]

When I'm solo and playing for bounty, not ratting, I take Magpie because it's a huge advantage. Comes closer to even-ing it up with teams. If I know where they are at all times, and then can loot more darksight as I pick them off...

[heavy finch]

• i believe magpie solo gets you double darksight from stuff like dark sight poster

i had 10 seconds of darksight with no bounty the other day

[dawn zinc]

Hard to wallbang someone standing up who just had a giant icon showing their exact position?

[desert acorn]

and from corpses

[heavy finch]

if i know where the guy is. i can stand in between them and revive. obviously not on the window angle. but if its a pure wallbang angle i can at least.

[desert acorn]

Just occurred to me I haven't listened to music all day. Probably why I'm so shot.

being a bit shot is one thing... I'm burnt like toast in England.

[upbeat wraith]

Yeah, and with moon card you get 4s of dark sight

[heavy finch]

thats what happened. wondered how it got so high

solo with corpse seer and magpie combo is a must have if you have one then ;D

[desert acorn]

So, since the 24th, I have 1kd including necro. Since the 26th I have more like .5

[heavy finch]

stop playing for K/D. you cant enjoy a game like that

[upbeat wraith]

Bounty + corpse seer is also a 4s refill so you can spam dark sight. Filling a huge gap for solo

[desert acorn]

I don't play for KD. But I've felt awful for a few hours, and just counted to see if I was doing awful.

my GPU captures every highlight.

[heavy finch]

turn of highlights man 😄

[desert acorn]

I think it's not as bad as I was thinking though... I've been spamming clash, anyway.

[lofty sinew]

paying attention to k/d is fine so long as you're only competing with yourself and not killing your enjoyment of the game as a result

[heavy finch]

competing with yourself also ruins it for you when you drop some

[upbeat wraith]

I play for kd cuz i like to fight and get high kill games, until im on a bad streak and become too broke to afford my loadout then i play safe and extract asap 😂

[desert acorn]

For me a victory is extraction with more than I went in, with at least one firefight won.

Sometimes the firefight is a solo, sometimes a team. And sometimes I gotta fight a whole bunch of people. But I don't fight when I don't have to.

When my game started going south, I started using diplomacy. Have 3 "wins" that way.

[heavy finch]

ive farmed k/d in several games. But as soon as i stopped and just had fun 1. i actually had fun and 2. i played better.

[desert acorn]

First guy I missed a perfect shot. According to my monitor, it was lined up just fine. He still didn't know where I was, so I let him off with a warning, and he took it.

He was interacting with the clue.

He wiped the server, but traded with the last guy.

I was calling out newcomers to him, but thought in my head I didn't want to kill him by mistake, or vice-versa. Woulda made the thing less awesome.

[dusty gorge]

i didnt think i cared about kd until it went from 1.30 to 1.29.. such an uneven number fuck this

[desert acorn]

I can't care about KD. first 3 months I was .23 or so.

I had a good match first week, and I was hooked. Put up with a lot of abuse to become proficient.

[heavy finch]

thats the spirit

[dusty gorge]

i still remember my first kill, combat axe, hooked indeed

[desert acorn]

Found some loadouts that work for me, but only solo. Don't know how to back up a team yet, and have been playing with randos. My friends and I understand each other, but randos all just yell "Banzaaaaiiii!!!" and charge the compounds.

[hallow scroll]

"How could you miss that?!?!"

I DUNNO HOW I MISSED IT ALSO

[desert acorn]

I got my first kill first game, but don't remember it. Been a hardcore gamer a long time, and it was just a kill. The first ones I remember are team wipes. I took down two people with headshots each in under a second, with cenny sniper.

They were sitting there, thinking I was somewhere I wasn't.

[upbeat wraith]

You even slowed down time and still missed

[hallow scroll]

i moved my mouse the same time while shooting but yea

didn't hit

[royal cloak]

Skill issue

[hallow scroll]

Slowing down time doesn't help with skill issue

[desert acorn]

My pc has been acting weird. Posted a clip earlier of some levering, where two shots could not have missed by game mechanics, out of 4 shots.

[hallow scroll]

https://tenor.com/view/speed-ishowspeed-speed-stream-ishowspeed-stream-speed-nod-gif-1082323842437565509

[desert acorn]

I have a friend who spectates me when he's down... which is often. And he yelled about it.

[upbeat wraith]

You should have slowed down his bullets so they could never reach you instead

[dusty gorge]

this is always how my badshots go they are too early if you look at it in super slow mo but look perfect in normal speed, what's your fps out of curiosity

[hallow scroll]

138

i GENUINELY thought I was gonna get the easiest kill

[dusty gorge]

glad to know flickshots are not working consistently no matter the fps

[hallow scroll]

it's the latency

[hallow scroll]

Look at the first shot and the end of the video

[upbeat wraith]

Some parts of the maps seem like that. Once my friend was spectating me, from my pov i was aiming at someone and shooting him but didnt get a hitmark despite being sure my aim was accurate. On my friends screen there was a tree in front of me

[dusty gorge]

similar shot

[hallow scroll]

YES

I think the levering bug

[hallow scroll]

@desert acorn

look

[soft marten]

my patience will pay out trust chat

[hallow scroll]

me and my teammates are using levering

[short halo]

You shot a post

[hallow scroll]

Yes

[desert acorn]

I deleted the audio because my friend said he sounded stupid. He's a genius, but he's stream of consciousness around people he trusts.

[hallow scroll]

The end of the video, i dunno how to explain it

my teammate CLEARLY shot them

[desert acorn]

I was using subsonic, because my friend needed them for his challenge. I'm a katana main, so it already was causing me pain.

[left orbit]

that’s definitely a miss though

[hallow scroll]

😭😭😭

[desert acorn]

2 of them are completely in the reticle. The other two just barely, and reasonably missed.

but two shots at that range is all it takes.

[dusty gorge]

nuhh uhhhh

[desert acorn]

Even with the plastic bullets.

[short halo]

You cant judge anything by spectate since it doesnt show you exactly whats actually happening

[hallow scroll]

Understandable

[desert acorn]

My gpu recorded that nonsense. But it's good to know spectate isn't always reliable.

[soft marten]

my patience did indeed pay but i got killed anyways

[dusty gorge]

whats your recording software, disk usage and editing software

Feel like i'm watching a youtube highly edited frag video but its just lowlights

[upbeat wraith]

You swung too far right then you shot lol

[left orbit]

the moment you shoot the xhair is off the left arm

[hallow scroll]

Nvidia overlay just clips it for me

[dusty gorge]

look at the bullet on the wall afterwards and it feels so wrong

[hallow scroll]

I'll turn it off cause it takes my fps away

But I mainly use outplayed

for clipping

[heavy finch]

kek

[mortal cove]

Why not just use the integrated recording tools from Steam?

It's how I do it

[fair stag]

There's no way you think this should've actually hit

[dusty gorge]

nvidia 50/50 if my clip turns out a mess of corrupted static

[twin basin]

no update today even if we had a 7go update last week

lol

[heavy finch]

been having a bit of that after the update to the new name. program sucks now

[left orbit]

hmmm not to me really 🤔 and i’m not making fun of your or anything

might be because of recording framerate but either the bullet went to the left of the arm, barely touching it, or between arm and chest and that’s very unlucky

i’ve had SO MANY CLOTHING SHOTS 😭 … looks like a similar case

[dusty gorge]

it could have 🙁 if it wasn't so close

[upbeat wraith]

Half the time nvidia randomly disable highlights without me noticing, then im missing some good clips

[fair stag]

If you didn't miss then it indeed would've hit

[dusty gorge]

the worst hurtbox is a guy crouching and looking to your right that shit is a enigma what to aim at

[left orbit]

yes!

[heavy finch]

it does so with recap capture too. you gotta make sure to check for updates and if you dont want to miss audio i restart the program before playing every time

[left orbit]

i often aim the head, guy stays still, i shoot, and nothing happens

[heavy finch]

video?

[left orbit]

but lemme draw the hitboxes

[upbeat wraith]

This morning i had a funny fight with a guy, his teammate opened the door, then i killed him, he closed the door to rezz but i kept opening and he kept closing it. We went back and forth for 3min till i chose to push and shotgun him in the face

Then after the game i went to check highlights only to realize it didnt record

[short halo]

You got unlucky on 4

[left orbit]

in red, arm/chest/shoulders
in green: the actual head

that’s what hunt is about when it comes to hitboxes

[heavy finch]

wish i could write a script that would restart nvidia shadowplay automatically before launching a game + give me a warning when its not running

[left orbit]

i don’t keep these no

[heavy finch]

do you have desktop capture active?

[dusty gorge]

some kind of zodiac symbol hitbox

[upbeat wraith]

No

[heavy finch]

aight. cus the new rules on the program will disable shadowplay when you have it active on websites that dont allow recording

its so dumb

[upbeat wraith]

Some games highlights is enabled and then the next it isnt

[dusty gorge]

obs refuses to clip when I fight the crouching hurtbox guy and miss, pisses me off

[upbeat wraith]

And it doesnt notify me, theres a small icon that shows if its enabled or not but i dont always check it

[heavy finch]

dude this. there needs to be a setting that makes it very obvious that its not running. at least while ingame

[upbeat wraith]

I always have instant replay to record the last 2min as backup but rarely think about it cuz then i have to do it manually

[desert acorn]

I'm shaky as hell lately... didn't realize he was so out of the reticle on the relevant frames.

[left orbit]

i used 20 last seconds and Alt+F2 to record

20 seconds is more than enough

[heavy finch]

i run 5 min cus im lazy.

[left orbit]

given i die in 1 sec from instaheadshot anyways

[desert acorn]

That's why I use katana and bow/crossbow. OHK, and aiming is simple.

You can see I'm good with positioning. Katana was an easy kill. Bow too, for that matter. No recoil.

[heavy finch]

focus on learning headshots otherwise it will always be an obstacle . cant avoid it

[left orbit]

me hitting the arms every time

[desert acorn]

Bow will still kill him with the trait. Katana is a true murder weapon.

Melee has to get more and more creative, though, as you get better.

[heavy finch]

i only aim for heads. otherwise i cant get kills

[left orbit]

i refuse to use the trait. bow is already buffed now 😭

[desert acorn]

That's how Emaiza mains derringer at 6mmr

[desert acorn]

Honestly, I'll get there if I can calm my nerves.

[heavy finch]

does she main it tho.

[desert acorn]

Most of her videos, it's her weapon of choice.

I watch her win with the best possible teammates, which means the opposition is max mmr, too.

[left orbit]

if i only aim at the heads, i’ll miss the crouched guys

[heavy finch]

dude she only has 257 kills with it. how is that main

[desert acorn]

Um.... I have zero.

[heavy finch]

i have more

[desert acorn]

Do you mean since this thing started? Or total?

[heavy finch]

tracking started at empress

[desert acorn]

But I see your point. She has mained derringer lately, since I've been watching. Though she also goes with thrown weapons often, including environmentals.

[heavy finch]

i only bring the derringer. but i sure dont do it in 6 star lol

[desert acorn]

Nerfing yourself against lower-mmrs?

[heavy finch]

ive clawed my way to 5 a few time

[desert acorn]

Oh. I see.

[heavy finch]

ill do all i can to win. but with the derringer, and i also have 2 bats

[desert acorn]

A favorite loadout of mine is sparks-katana.

[dusty gorge]

Sparks/Sword/Derringer is such a goated loadout

[desert acorn]

I've been bringing things to combo with sparks. I like having a 80M ohk shotgun

Actually, I gotta check damage dropoff, so I can calculate it properly.

[heavy finch]

all im saying is i know Emaiza plays a ton. So if she is 6 star with 257 kills. She must be using other weapons too or it would have to be much higher

[dusty gorge]

I quickswap to my sword by muscle memory, enemy sees that and laughs, whip out derringer and go to town lmao

[desert acorn]

I hear you. I think she posts a lot of derringer gameplay because it's something the other pros don't do.

Even in splatoon, I don't use the sniper. Called a "charger." I'm a tactically intelligent guy, without the precision of others.

[heavy finch]

Derringer gameplay is fun. its the best tool to teach headshots since its your only option ;D

[desert acorn]

It's got a great RoF, and it's quiet.

And it hits harder than the bornheim

[heavy finch]

yea sometimes i take shots at people from afar while they fight. they have no idea im there

[dusty gorge]

time to move on to the chokebolt headshots challenge perhaps?

[desert acorn]

VERY slow "muzzle velocity."

[dusty gorge]

I think i've gotten like 3 total by accident

[heavy finch]

idk i already did a starshell kill with no outside damage.

[desert acorn]

Starshells work now?

[heavy finch]

work?

[desert acorn]

They were kinda glitched. I've been told by, and watched on YT, many people say not to use them for this reason.

[heavy finch]

well. its literally just a flare?

its always gonna be useless

[desert acorn]

I think they implied it didn't work as well as flares.

[heavy finch]

could be. did seem kinda slow

[desert acorn]

I like literally everything else better, so I never thought to try them.

[heavy finch]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kJCCnPyVTc

im playing the music in a soundboard 🙂

[left orbit]

dude had a talon and messed that up 🤣

[desert acorn]

You might want to not leave up that song... I think they can give you a strike for it.

[heavy finch]

yea he was like 2-3 star. but since he is a solo i think 3

[desert acorn]

Awesome vid, though.

[heavy finch]

there is a semi strike on it. but not the kind that hurts me

just some countries cant play it

if it was they would give a warning and then i can take it down on my own to avoid the strike

[left orbit]

isn’t a strike when you make money from the vid or something?

i’ve had a video restricted in some countries because of the track i’ve used but that’s all

[heavy finch]

uhm. it just depends on the rights holder. if they want to make everyone their enemy they can tell youtube to strike it off the platform

[left orbit]

hm okay

[desert acorn]

I love that not all the sights line up the same in this game.

[normal kayak]

14 barrel flintlock existed before 1896 add it to hunt immediately

why i can't post on reddit ?

i am sure i didn't break the rules

[stiff nimbus]

Hello

What were you talking about in your post ?

[normal kayak]

i mean it says reddits filters and if it were taken away for breaking hunt showdowns subreddit rules youd have a notif from a mod or automod saying so

[brazen vapor]

How it feels when I down 2 hunters and I’m about to wallop the last one

[whole mist]

I saw you were asking about this yesterday. You can try and post your game idea in #game-ideas if you want, just be sure to follow the correct formatting

[snow ivy]

Revolvers are so garbage since the relaunch, they should just get rid of the silly revolver spin on reload to make them more appealing. Imagine if they sped up the reload with a proper rod ejector reload animation across the board as well

At least add some more sawed off rifles that are decent, the Mosin Obrez has replaced the Uppercut as being the only really powerful ranged sidearm. Obrez Vetterli and Mako Vandal would be incredible

[raven rune]

martini henry obrez

huh is there something wrong with the shredder? im standing here in the shooting range and like 75%+ of my shots dont seem to spawn any blade

https://i.imgur.com/O9wLmog.jpeg

no hit both in ads and hipfire, and no blade to be found

[astral moss]

Nah its design like that.

Some time the sawblade just disappear otherwise it would be too op.

[left orbit]

lmao

gotta gamble at gamble booth to get'em

[normal kayak]

pretty sure someone posted a video of this happening on the reddit too

[raven rune]

lovely

[junior tusk]

For two days now, this message has been popping up every time I launch the game, preventing it from launching. I had to uninstall and reinstall it yesterday, but if it's like this every day, it's going to start getting on my nerves.

If someone would be kind enough to help me. Thank you.

[normal kayak]

turn off windows smart control

[normal kayak]

go to Settings > Privacy & security > Windows Security > App & browser control > Smart App Control settings, then select the "Off" option and confirm

[junior tusk]

Thanks. I uninstalled and reinstalled anyway while waiting for a response. I'll see tomorrow if it happens again.

Hawaiian sweet rolls my beloved

[modern pebble]

how about not nerfing/scarcing everything in the game

might be a hot take🔥

[astral moss]

Very hot take.

[raven rune]

i dont think theyve done either to everything in the game, or even close to

[modern pebble]

yeah but I checked Reddit once and they were saying that shit

scarce is a terrible mechanic

[raven rune]

dont check reddit

better than deleting it or nerfing it into oblivion (see flash bomb)

[modern pebble]

i wish we didn’t even have scarce

[modern pebble]

no not really

[astral moss]

Best advice of the day.

[modern pebble]

it’s keeping something broken but making it so u don’t run into it that often and don’t actyally have access to it

it’s not balanced

making something balanced would be better lol

[astral moss]

Yesterday McCree posted a screen of a post on reddit that say shotgun spread isn't random.

[raven rune]

well now im confused. first you said you dont want them to nerf/scarce stuff. now you're saying they should nerf it?

[astral moss]

Nice you understand the purpose of the scarce mecanics.

[modern pebble]

i would rather shit be nerfed than scarced

but some ppl wanna nerf weird shit ngl

like there’s a guy asking for concertina bomb nerf

[normal kayak]

console players thinking bomb lance is OP

[modern pebble]

bomb lance is top 1 weapon bro

it’s a lance and it bombs

so op

[astral moss]

(Only understandable thing.)

[normal kayak]

need to nerf it so the bomb has buckshot spread

🔥

throwing concertina bombs on people is funny

[astral moss]

Like imagine conc bomb only purpose isn't to be annoying.

[left meadow]

Funny game. Mogged a team at spawn on boss compound, butcher killed 2 of us with a fireball while teammate was cooking dynamite, all 3 of us got killed with a shotgun before we revived up and about to kill the boss

[oak thorn]

I accidentally bought a gun skin, can I get a refund?

[tall canopy]

you need to ask the #customer-support for that

[oak thorn]

have a refund policy?

[vocal path]

ANY LEAKS ABOUT THE NEXT BATTLE PASS?

[astral moss]

Funny story.

[tall canopy]

afaik they give refunds for things in some occasions

[vocal path]

DO HUNT SHOWDOWN BATTLE PASSES GET LEAK BEFORE

[oak thorn]

Do you know what the case is?

[tall canopy]

accident purchase, just try it, im pretty sure they can do smth

[normal kayak]

turn off capslock bruh

[oak thorn]

Tysm gentle man

[tall canopy]

there are no leaks here and dont ask for potential leaks

[raven rune]

afaik they do give refunds for accidental purchases as long as you dont keep doing it too often

[modern pebble]

remove scarce as a mechanic and balance things instead 💔

[astral moss]

(No.)

[tall canopy]

imo it depends on the things that are scarce, but yes

[normal kayak]

scarce is cool i just dont like how much content is scarce

make more shit i can just use

[modern pebble]

wouldn’t it be better to just have balanced things you can have fun against rather than having broken garbage but you run into it slightly less often

[tall canopy]

wildland and homestead are good for scarce weapons but are also way too rare

[modern pebble]

scarce weapons I guess are fine

[normal kayak]

tbh homestead like

isnt that good for a scarce

[astral moss]

Some scarce weapon/ammo are already balanced.

[normal kayak]

like yeah its a great gun

[tall canopy]

as i said, it depends on the scarce things. traits and straight upgraded weapon variants are okay imo

[modern pebble]

i mean it’s a double Romero

[normal kayak]

but its 3 pledge marks and you barely find it

[modern pebble]

yes obviously but those were made to be this way

making ammo types scarce is

ew

[normal kayak]

give the homestead 50m 1 tap range trust

[modern pebble]

just make it fuckin fair

[tall canopy]

just balance xbow explo and give it back creitek

[normal kayak]

maynard dumdum is so funny to find

[modern pebble]

unscarce damn near everything and make balance changes to it instead

except the straight upgrade stuff obv

and traits

[astral moss]

If they can keep the frag bow scarce tho.

[modern pebble]

although some of the scarce traits I wouldn’t even take as non scarce

[tall canopy]

or just nerf them

[modern pebble]

oh yeah shadow leap what a fun thing

[raven rune]

i think all scarce weapons should be 2 coins

[tall canopy]

frag arrows imo dont need to be frags but could just be explosive instead

[astral moss]

How would you nerf frag arrow ?

[raven rune]

and please make them spawn more often in towers

[tall canopy]

not above 125 dmg and no bleed

[modern pebble]

what so they never kill ?

that sounds too weak at that point

[tall canopy]

what?

[modern pebble]

<125 ?

[tall canopy]

it would still be strong huh

ofc

xplo xbow has less than 125

[astral moss]

Like the frag arrow aren't broken they are just beyond annoying to face and stupid.

[tall canopy]

yes, but frag arrows dont need to deal 134 dmg pls bleed

xbow explo dmg was like 124

i would take xplo xbow if they do 100 dmg instead and dont oneshot on body hits

[astral moss]

With hornskin or base ?

[tall canopy]

base

[astral moss]

Cause i remember getting one shot by explo crossbow.

[tall canopy]

direct hits

[astral moss]

Yeah so its not 134 damage ?

[tall canopy]

thats impact plus explo dmg

the explosion dmg is 124

[raven rune]

isnt it something like 145 if you actually sit on top of it?

[tall canopy]

you need to directly hit hunters above 124hp to kill them

[astral moss]

https://tenor.com/view/wtff-cat-confused-orange-gif-25858653

[tall canopy]

anyways bring back explo xbow and im happy again after over 6 months without

[astral moss]

The problem with explo bolt is that you don't really need to aim since its AOE.

I think that's why people got frustrated over it.

[lime summit]

one shot bow is lame

[short halo]

Good thing the bow has 17 shots

[tall canopy]

thats like 17 kills

[short halo]

Then punch with the bow for 18

[tall canopy]

or infinite kills since u can pick up arrows

they should remove melee from the bow

[raven rune]

not explosive arrows...

First match in and my entire team gets head tapped by a lvl 50 with 4 hours on the game 🤔

[whole mist]

🤔

[static briar]

Imagine a 3 slot compound bow scarce weapon, that creaked when you draw it and has crazy range or something

[jaunty patio]

I'd rather the normal bow become 3 slot scarce

[static briar]

true

[charred grail]

let me use the cannons on fort

[raven rune]

let me turn them as well

[royal sparrow]

One ban simply wasn't enough

[raven rune]

so i can blast a beehive all the way to parish

[royal sparrow]

Adding the rock-it launcher from Fallout 3 so we can long ball hive bombs

[charred grail]

cannon someone in sweet bell from fort

[dawn zinc]

Feel like Crytek might have done some sneaky changes to matchmaking in the last few days

My randoms team mates mmr is suddenly really diverse

[royal sparrow]

I think it is just event burnout changing the player counts.

[tall canopy]

i would not call that event burnout, but rather that the playerbase just gets lower the longer an event lasts until the next event starts and its like this since they started doing events

[stray robin]

Anyone wants Wildlands, Centennial, Dolch dumdum and 2 Homesteads? I can drop

[royal sparrow]

Yeah, I just mean people are done with the event grind move on for a moment and the few hardcore fans and new motivated players compose the pool for the last 2-3 weeks of any event.

Not a real Burn out... They'll be back once the next piece of candy drops.

[dawn zinc]

very well could be because at the start of the event my games were amazing

I'm just on a continuously downward spiral right now

[royal sparrow]

Yeah, the competition is difficult at the moment.

[dawn zinc]

Getting burnt out myself

usually just ride the wave but its never ending rn

[spark plaza]

morning amogus

[royal sparrow]

It can be hard to shake off a bad run... I know I went on like a 50+ deaths streak before and I really started to wonder if something wasn't wrong with my connection.

Morning AmmoGus.

[dawn zinc]

I usually just consider it part of Hunt, Hunt giveth Hunt taketh and all that

Never had a run this bad though and suddenly low mmr randoms are thrown into the team too just makes it even harder

[royal sparrow]

Yeah. But it can definitely be a head game sometimes.
Don't judge the randoms based on MMR too harshly... sometimes a 2 star will save you from a wipe & sometimes a 5* ego-lord will throw a run for the most ludicrous perceived slight.

[bitter steeple]

🔥

[drifting gulch]

when new event

[left meadow]

They added so much stuff to hunt since I last seriously played

Had no idea you could regen burnt chunks using a shot

[jaunty patio]

Soon after Feb 9th, it's yet to be announced properly but so far we've been having back to back events for a bit now. News should come out soon

[stray robin]

Used to be better when it restored the full health chunk, instead of burnt 24 hp

[drifting gulch]

good nerf imio

[left meadow]

Oh so you have to wait for the remaining portion to unburn?

[drifting gulch]

ye

[left meadow]

That makes sense, it shouldn't be that useful mid fight

[jaunty patio]

It keeps people vulnerable for just a bit longer which is nice, it's not instantly nullifying the work you put in

[stray robin]

I dislike it. But hey, people will always complain on reddit and crytek will always listen to them taking away fun and good features

[drifting gulch]

why?

[spark plaza]

That's why I bring vigor to regen that char even faster

[drifting gulch]

based

[opal dawn]

Recov shot is still immensely useful, but now it's less of an ace in a fight

[stray robin]

Vigor has nothing to do with it. It regens faster when you are wet. Simple as that

[drifting gulch]

as a solo i love the nerf 8)))))))

[fathom shale]

Recovery shots are too accessible, it's good that they were nerfed but ideally bar restoration should be less accessible so that it cannot be done mid fight. Who you downed used to be important information you shared with teammates as it meant they were missing a bar, now it doesn't mean anything

[spark plaza]

You do know that vigor has the hidden effect of speeding up char/reducing poison time as well

[opal dawn]

I will find you, I will down you, my attention will slip, you will get up and kill me, I will mald

[fathom shale]

The only good trait for restoring bars imo was peacekeeper as it required you to have bodies around to loot for bars, usually after a fight

[stray robin]

Because it's stupid. You are still vulnerable to long ammo, spam weapons and medium dumdum, why nerfing it? The guy has to run in cover, take the restoration shot, then regen shot or even if he had that already, it will still take more than 3 secs to regen back to 150hp

[drifting gulch]

circle of life !

[spark plaza]

I agree. It required a kill and looting to get a bar back. Not the ease of just buying a singular shot to negate an important death.

[stray robin]

I'll have to check it myself. First time I hear it. But oh well, never had a place in my loadout for it anyway

[opal dawn]

Peacekeeper burntrait plz

Buyable, no stack

[stray robin]

Nobody asked them to make them lootable

[fathom shale]

Looting is not the problem with it

[spark plaza]

This genuinely a better idea instead of recovery shot

[fathom shale]

The fact that you can bring one whenever is the core problem

[drifting gulch]

3x in trio

[stray robin]

Yeah, like before its addition or the super medkit, people didn't use to just extract after losing their bars with no bosses left to banish on the map

[fathom shale]

Again, I'm not against more ways of restoring bars

I just don't want it to be so accessible that you can easily do it mid fight

It should be something that can only be done between fights

[left meadow]

I had to kill a solo 5 times

I was so confused

[stray robin]

Waaa?

When?

[left meadow]

One of the matches I played today

[stray robin]

I want the return of revive bolt, but this time make it restore your health chunks. Harry go

[fathom shale]

Ew

[stray robin]

Dude's been packing a lot of empresses

[drifting gulch]

4....... empress cards???

[opal dawn]

OH NO

[fathom shale]

You only need one empress to need to kill them 5 times

If they had small bars

[left meadow]

What does empress do?

[fathom shale]

Wait nvm

[drifting gulch]

whut?

[royal cloak]

When will the katana get a scope

[drifting gulch]

necro is burn trait

[stray robin]

Gives you Catalyst, Necromancer and random burn/scarce trait

[fathom shale]

Mixed it with normal ressing

[left meadow]

Oh

[fathom shale]

But yeah either multiple empress cards or they got necro from some random trait drop on the map 1-2 times on top

[drifting gulch]

did solo have a bit of alone time before dying again bilbo?

[stray robin]

And the ability to throw it like a spear

[left meadow]

They were sitting on top of fort carmick. I domed then like three times with very little time in between

[drifting gulch]

makes sense

[left meadow]

I mean enough to get up and use stuff, but they were sitting on the roof the entire time

[drifting gulch]

makes sense yeah they were packing, thats why the position also

[stray robin]

So yeah, last chance before I hit prestige button

[drifting gulch]

everytime i bring couple empress cards i make positional misplay and just fumble all necro löl

[left meadow]

It was fun though, it's been a while since I hit those long range sparks headshots

[drifting gulch]

spark hs hits different fs

[cobalt oxide]

dude this game is so weird , some time if you throw a bomb 100km away from the flames even beyond walls and still explode in your face , sometimes a satchel placed directly near a lantern that i shot don't explode at all ahahah

that satchel was litterally inside the flames ....

[stiff nimbus]

Hello

[cobalt oxide]

hello dude

[cobalt oxide]

@astral moss

[astral moss]

???

[twin drum]

i love it when downed teammates turn into coaches

[cobalt oxide]

I needed your opinion

[astral moss]

About the C4 ?

When you destroy a lantern its not an AOE so you didn't place it good.

[echo ridge]

https://tenor.com/view/sniff-toobygifs-gif-23572003

good god im losing my patience trying to play low velocity

[solar swallow]

pls add ping based matchmaking back thanks.

[cobalt oxide]

flames are AOE dot not the lantern itself

[royal sparrow]

Do you mean sub sonic or just a specific gun?

[left orbit]

yes i've noticed that with kegs as well

planted on below lantern, but slightly on the side, it didn't go off

[echo ridge]

well any below 400

[cobalt oxide]

i just wanna mean that when you throw some granades also away from flames explode instantly like if you have throwed them inside the flames maybe even if you are beyond a wall , but then sometime if you place a satchel also directly inside the flames in special chases like this some time can also don't detonate

@astral moss

[astral moss]

The explo of the lantern isn't.

[royal sparrow]

My brain/ reaction time seems to gel well with slow velocities. I was worried about sub-sonic but I was wrecking some fools with Sparks Pistol with sub-sonic.

[cobalt oxide]

i'm not talking of any explo of the lantern

[astral moss]

What are you saying then ?

[cobalt oxide]

this ^^^^

[royal sparrow]

But the dark dynamite is around the corner of the post... the lantern flames don't drop around that...

[astral moss]

Based on where you place it, it was just too high for the flame hitbox.

[cobalt oxide]

dude i pinned u because other times ago , you commented a video where i throw a nade so far away from the flames , but the nade still detonated to my face and you reply to me that flames has very big hitbox and i have make a bad throw (literally 8 meters away from the flames and also beyond a wall)

[queen swan]

guys when does the event/battepass ends?

[cobalt oxide]

just i need is a little bit of coherence there , the satchel you can see is literally inside the flame on that video dude @astral moss

[astral moss]

Lantern hitbox =/= flame hitbox.

[cobalt oxide]

i talkinf of FLAMES

[astral moss]

The flame is on the ground when the lantern is destroyed.

[cobalt oxide]

omg

[astral moss]

You satchel is way too high for it to explod.

[cobalt oxide]

then ok... doesn't matter dude

[astral moss]

I know you got some issue with lantern.

[mild flower]

is there drama

[left orbit]

always when Matrix and DragNoa are debating

(jk)

[cobalt oxide]

#hunt-general message

@astral moss

so the flame is on the floor too ??

[astral moss]

The floor upstair yeah. 🤭

[opal dawn]

I played silenced vett subsonic the other day in clash, I've never gotten so many headshots before. I'm ashamed

[dull ferry]

DROP Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC)

[opal dawn]

Popcorn time! 🍿

[astral moss]

A bit too late for that.

[eternal canopy]

miau

[opal dawn]

Damn... Oh well

[astral moss]

He release he was coping.

[raven totem]

there's no real way to actually do that thouggh.

[fathom shale]

Peacekeeper was the ideal trait for that

[raven totem]

and back to the peace keeper thing, I abuse peace keeper far far more than recov shots

and yes you can get loots off mid fight

[fathom shale]

You can, but only if there's bodies around, at which point it was earned

[raven totem]

not always?

[opal dawn]

Peacekeeper buyable burn trait, 1 stack, lessgoooo

I don't think I want old peacekeeper back tbh

[frosty swallow]

What did peacekeeper do?

[raven totem]

it feels wild to me that peacekeeper is being claimed as more blaanced than recov.

[fathom shale]

Most of the time, and even if you end up to where others fought and loot bodies from people you didn't kill, that is still a lot more controlled and predictable than recovery shots or rampage or remedy or such

[opal dawn]

Gave you a burned bar back every time you looted a hunter

• some ammo

[frosty swallow]

Ah, that does sound very op

[fathom shale]

My focus is information, if an enemy were to get a bar back I should know about it, having it be tied to looting bodies makes it predictable

If there's bodies around and you downed someone, you can guess that they are going for their bars

[opal dawn]

People farmed each other in trios, made off to a secluded area, killed and ressed each other then left the match

[fathom shale]

With recovery shot, I have no idea when or if they used them

[raven totem]

I mean, we're way pass that hill

[echo ridge]

i already strungle with hitting enemy side way 💀 sub sonic ust made it worse

[heavy finch]

whats that going to do. surely you are going 1 for 1.

[opal dawn]

You got to level 50 + a lot of money from looting with full consumables

[frosty swallow]

I see, when I heard the trait being discussed my mind went instantly to the pax since that was its irl nickname

[heavy finch]

oh so its prestige farming. but money? who cares lol

[drifting gulch]

come to think of it, there should be at least sound and visual cue

restoration effect

[fathom shale]

I wouldn't mind that yeah

[frosty swallow]

Make it make a disturbing flesh crunching sound when used

[opal dawn]

This was before cash register pledgemarks, so money was tighter unless you were in 6*

[raven totem]

there are quite a few restores that can proc right now, and have been in the game that you're not going to know unless you're looking dead at them, so the info thing is in a bit of a bushy situation.

[fathom shale]

And I was arguing that all of them have been less balanced than peacekeeper was for that reason 😄

[drifting gulch]

hunter should also scream for 25 seconds

[heavy finch]

right right. i did actually play about 100 hours 3 years ago and then came back to the game some months ago and mained it. i do remember the much tighter budget back then. they should perhabs bring that back. but keep events. i like four shot

[frosty swallow]

Lmao just chasing some guy trying to heal while he is screaming

[raven totem]

lol I hear ya kinda, I just felt peacekeeper ironically was absolutly busted to hell, becaue you in some cases could just keep going and grabbing bars back like no tomarrow.

just saying that from expereince

[fathom shale]

Not much different to a trio having 3 or more recovery shots imo

[drifting gulch]

yea it was, but if it was burn trait. single use

[opal dawn]

I wouldn't mind if it was a burn trait, you could buy it, then if you loot a person you get bar + some ammo

[raven totem]

except everyone can do it like, 3 -6 times in some applications. ya sometimes there isn't anything, but most cases like that it's a sweep anyway

[modern pebble]

I don’t mind cash being plentiful it’s less fun when everyone is afraid and won’t move
