[raven totem]

you've enough time to try and get info

spitzer you typically don't

[random nimbus]

I mean, you don't really get info when you just lose your head out of nowhere either lol

[raven totem]

I mean I agree, maynard silencer trying to get lazy picks is annoying as fuck

I just don't think it's as broken

[random nimbus]

I hate spitzer with a burning passion, and I'm not saying the Maynard is broken like Spitzer. I'm saying it's incredibly annoying in a different way

[raven totem]

especially in a mode that doesn't really pay well, like those guys are lkiterally just paying to pad kds

[random nimbus]

At least with spitzer they're probably engaging in the compound

If they're in Narnia too, then yeah to hell with them

[raven totem]

all holding each others pockets

far enough where they can waggle out of your shots but unlikey you to theirs

with like 6 ammo boxes total

[random nimbus]

I would probably just camp out inside against those teams and force them in. The Silent Rats are just hoping for easy picks and ruin the fun of a chaotic fight

Like, if I've got Quad Dualies, both teams are going to be torture to deal with

[raven totem]

ye

[random nimbus]

But the silent rats are likely gonna be holding some tiny little hole in Narnia hoping someone walks by their little FoV

[fallow arch]

At least rats with shotguns are kinda funny

[raven totem]

idk, I'm not big on clash honestly unless someone invites me for it I just don't play it, it's quite the flawed mode

[random nimbus]

The Spitzer sweats do at least engage in a shootout

I did it for challenges lol

Farmed my Conversion damage in like 3 games in Clash

[raven totem]

clash is good for challenges

[random nimbus]

And the dualies were absolutely clearing house

Dual regulars and dual chains all FMJ. No wall is safe

[raven totem]

I really like conversion as is so. Ironically when people talk about just likeing a gun and not looking at it like a tool, the ccp is close to me.

I just wish they would put a loadout cap on clash or something.

[random nimbus]

I just grabbed a free hunter and threw on the conversions

One of the free hunters had a bow and I cleared like 4 people in compound before getting shot in the ass lol

[raven totem]

lol

[random nimbus]

By dualies, ironically enough

[raven totem]

base scottfeild has an advantage as duelies but I can't remember the specifics

[random nimbus]

iirc, slightly better accuracy

But worse fire rate and kick

[raven totem]

iirc they have one of the fastest sprint to double fire times

[random nimbus]

They double shoot quick but then you got a bit of a delay

[raven totem]

iirc on scottfeild it's really quick for the first two

I think the gun I play the most duelies anymore is lemat due to bornheim match

and then it's a rival hc that mules ammo for bornheim

[random nimbus]

I never run dualies lol

Only did it today for easy challenges because I knew clash would have more close range fights

And spamming a lot helps against groups

[raven totem]

bornheim match incin, lemet duelies incin, it's a blast

[random nimbus]

But no pen x.x

[raven totem]

baaa

it works I promis

[random nimbus]

I only take fmj to spam at the walls XD

[fallow arch]

Dude I love the bornheim silencer

[raven totem]

bornheim doesn't have fmj though, nor should it ever

ye bornheim silencer is fun

bornheim getting fmj would be nastier than dolch getting it

[fallow arch]

Bornheim with dum dums

[past locust]

bornheu

[cursive magnet]

Dolch already has FMJ

[dense sleet]

he means then when dolch got it

[last peak]

Dual wield deadeye dolch or go home

[versed light]

Hi! Can anyone tell me if they've experienced a bug lately where a hunter was burned out (it read "burned out hunters cannot be looted) but the hunter still managed to stand back up. The instance in this case was a solo who'd already died twice. I understand the empress card exists but I didn't think they could revive again if burned out?

[last peak]

Are you sure it was a solo?

[ancient cave]

If burned out and solo they can't get up

[mortal cove]

Nah

[dense sleet]

if they FULLY burnt out, then in no circumstance can they stand up as a solo

caveat, unless you read "burnING hunters cannot be looted"

[mortal cove]

Bornheim incendiary is already amazing

[dense sleet]

instead of "BURNT hunters"

[mortal cove]

Especially Bornheim Match Incen

[versed light]

Yes. I had bounty and scanned. They were the only other person my team ever saw.

[dense sleet]

then they were not fully burnt out

you can stand up as a solo with even 1 hp remaining not burnt out

[mortal cove]

I do wonder if they ever made FMJ ammo for the actual Bergmann pistol

I doubt it

[last peak]

You can check in the match details, scanning doesn't guarantee anything

[dense sleet]

BURNT and BURNING is a very big distinction

[mortal cove]

But it would be funny and the MV would have prolly be actual ass

Given how weak the firepower of the Bergmann was

[versed light]

We camped their body though and read the burned out hunter cannot be looted. Oh duh yeah I'm looking at match details now and it says solo.

[dense sleet]

then theres is zero way they couldve stood up again

[last peak]

And you watched him raise? Maybe it was another solo with the same skin

[dense sleet]

at least, when fully burnt

[mortal cove]

The later 1897 variant had 10mm ammo apparently @raven totem

[versed light]

That's what I thought. I was wondering if it was a bug or something.

[dense sleet]

ive never heard of it

[last peak]

How do you know he raised?

[dense sleet]

but anything is possible

[versed light]

He got back up and killed us lol

[dense sleet]

team details would show multiple different solos, especially if he was a totally different one

my only thought was that he was NOT fully burnt out

and you guys just misread it

[last peak]

Like you saw him get up? Because it could have been another guy

[mortal cove]

Ouh shit Apparently the later 1897 Bergmann was actually competitive with the Mauser C96 in terms of firepower lmao @raven totem

Good shit Hunt plays in 1896

[last peak]

Also sometimes they'll stop burning if it's raining etc

[mortal cove]

So it uses the weaker Bergmann no3 pistol variant

[versed light]

It was the same skin. We looked where the body was and it was gone. Also same name on match details.

[mortal cove]

The original Bergmann no1 used 5mm ammo

[dense sleet]

assuming he had all big bars, and that you used a flare gun once and that was it, it wouldnt take much longer than a minute for him to burn

[mortal cove]

Actual pea shooter

[last peak]

Well you could report it but yeah I'm guessing you just misread or got confused somehow

[dense sleet]

i dont think that warrants a report personally

i swear its just a confusion somewher

[last peak]

I mean a bug report

[dense sleet]

i wouldnt even go that far

did you happen to take a clip of it @versed light

[cedar trellis]

i know we aren't supposed to talk about sus players but i have video proof of a player using sus software through walls in clash and wiping the entire team in under 2 minutes. how to a send this proof to crytek?

[dense sleet]

!report

[graceful hedge]

If you would like to report a player, you can do so on the Team Details tab in your Last Mission section on the home page. Select the player -> Open Profile -> Report. It is also accessible in the Last Match tab at any time.

If you have additional proof you would like to provide, you can find out how to reach out to official support here: #customer-support

**Please note that you can still report people even if you don't have their SteamID or cannot open their profile by providing your own SteamID, time of the incident with a time zone and region on the Hunt Showdown website (link is in the in the Customer Support channel). **

**Hiding statistics/profiles does not prevent reporting. **

[versed light]

I mean there were 2 of us on the body and we both confirmed that we read they were burned out.

[dense sleet]

and hte issue isnt not TALKING about the sus shit, its specifically mentioning the player by name

no rules against talking bad about cheating and cheaters, but specifically talking about PEOPLE themselves is where it goes to no bueno

[versed light]

I didn't take a clip of the occurence unfortunately. This is genuinely the only time I've ever felt like something was sus. But yeah, I was just curious if there was a current bug allowing that or something. I'll submit the issue for either report or bug and the devs will know on their end. Thanks yall. Enjoy your games!

[lethal pulsar]

Man I love this game but I play solos 90% of the time and I just got tea bagged 😆 🤣

Why you dipping your nuts on a solo 😆 🤣

[dense sleet]

people have a disdain for a player who chooses to have significant disadvantages

mainly bc the stigma is that all solos just rat and pick off people and be generally annoying

[lethal pulsar]

Bestpart is i killed them both 2 times

Im current solo favorite build

[wise plume]

so ahh man

no regen/stamina shots

[lethal pulsar]

Ya I noticed on YT they use them alot

[cursive magnet]

you can say ass outside of tiktok

[wise plume]

axe is useless too if you are not killing meatheads

[prime umbra]

@chrome oasis yo since when can your teammate throw sticky bomb on an friendly hunt beatle and fly with it around to kill somebody, like why doesnt the beatle get destroyed from the damage of the stiky bomb, can you fix this if its a bug???????

[cursive magnet]

even then its one of the worst to use against them

[wise plume]

use pennyshot instead of it

[wanton swallow]

if you're solo, you should be running 3 big health bars. no smalls
solo necro is a full restoration. and with 3 big health bars, you might not need ghoul

[wise plume]

yea man

buff needed

best solo traits are uh

greyhound
necro
sense

and that one reduces time for stamina regen

[hollow crescent]

greyhound and determination

son conduit is right there

[wise plume]

greyhounds works different no?

[cursive magnet]

conduit with beetle and serpent is stronk

[wise plume]

you can run at max speed for longer time

[waxen iris]

How is it possible to have a 1 star match mmr at prestige 38? I thought the minimum was 2 stars because only new players are 1 stars

[cursive magnet]

Nah you can be one star, too

Just have to be 74 years old or something

[hollow crescent]

except having stamina boost allows you to also run at max speed for longer, for as long as the boost is active, even

[waxen iris]

Wow, that never used to be a thing, 2 star was the min, getting 1 star is crazy at prestige 38

[hollow crescent]

conduit / stamina boost doesn't just mean infinite melee stamina

[cursive magnet]

Prestige only means time spent, it is not an indicator for anything

[hollow crescent]

^

[wise plume]

woah

1k hours on that game and havent noticed yet ngl

i wasnt really onto it tho

[hollow crescent]

https://tenor.com/view/folk-druski-sona-instagram-instagram-meme-gif-18271404859547050805

[waxen iris]

Yeah but they have stats, 0.89 kd. You were never able to be 1 star after rank 11, it would always be 2 star as the bottom

[hollow crescent]

well you learn smth new ig

[wise plume]

https://giphy.com/gifs/son-im-crying-omiom-XR5eAo7SOgxfDa6Stn

i find it boring to play solo

maybe thats why.

if i want to play solo i just go in bounty clash and use maynard silencer + scot spitfire

[lavish bear]

maynard silencer

ig bro

[hollow crescent]

it is, in fact, possible to hit 1-star if you die for long enough

but idk how much you'd have to try to hit this with the current mmr system, since this is old hunt footage

[wise plume]

its fun

[lavish bear]

cap

[wise plume]

its really fun

[haughty valve]

i prestiged sadly having some rough games, i need a loadout thats good and cheap gimme one, i prefer a rifle

[wise plume]

if circle on mountain and you are spawned next to mines

none will notice u

[wise plume]

does ammo type matter

[haughty valve]

nah

[wise plume]

springfield

[hollow crescent]

marathon lemat ( preferably with the lemat permanently on shotgun )

otherwise if you're level 24, free hunter with 3 point trait, refund, get 2 point for vulture, romero spam in clash until win

[wise plume]

very useful if you trust ur aim

[haughty valve]

smart

[haughty valve]

eh my aim is altering rn trying new ads sens havent found the one

[wise plume]

marathon very good too yea

vetterlie

it got some bad sight though

sparks and martini both are great too

[lethal pulsar]

I use the bat for mods/close range fights and the throw ax for ponys and sound traps

Got out alive with a bounty i added shots for round 2

[oblique imp]

Some cool old timey syringes I saw at an antique mall that made me think of hunt:

[light sky]

pretty cool ones

[uneven flax]

There’s exact syringe boxes like this laying in world

[bitter trellis]

smurfing should be a bannable offense

[gleaming perch]

The crouchwalkers are out in full force tonight

Imagine drunk cowboys crouching through the woods in their boots

[neat gull]

sounds like a good time

[turbid dock]

Being a rat is fun

Some times, crouching in a bush or sitting still for 12 minutes straight waiting for some unfortunate soul to walk by just hits the spot

[spark plaza]

amogus

[uneven flax]

i brought a maynard sniper silencer for the first time last night. it was double bounty. i killed and banished a boss then took a high ground outside

bounty team wiped everyone then left with their bounties leaving me pp on my hand wanking in a bush

[lethal pulsar]

Ill bush camp while I touch "grass and drink water."

[uneven flax]

if i get matched with crouch walkers im farming the map and leaving their ass

boooring

[turbid dock]

Yup, it takes a uniquely talented maynard player to not have all the enemies just walking away from your ass lmao

[lethal pulsar]

I just beat a white shirt over the head with my bat for 2 kills and his bounty

[uneven flax]

nice rng bro

[uneven flax]

i might get reported for this but i was approaching a tower and shot the window to bait enemies camping out.

no movement. so i thought no one's there

i approach the tower with a fucking hand sticking out of the wall. scared tf out of me. guy's probably readying a spear throw when i approach.

i shot the fucking hand with a bow and he got one tapped.

im probably getting reported for walling. 1) he might think i knew he's in the tower 2) arrows cannot pierce through a wall

😂

piece of shit nvidia highlights didnt record the kill. now i dont have evidence

oh shit it did LMAOOO

[dry hawk]

thats fucking devious

bow op

[uneven flax]

bow too strong it makes your limbs phase through the wall for one tapping

[wicked fox]

Is that an arm sticking out of the wall? 😭

[uneven flax]

yeah lol. good thing i had a bow which one taps limb shots

[green nova]

Yo guys I got rookie Joan damon to level 50 but didnt get surviuvor tier 2 do i need to do soemthing to get the unlock?

[lethal pulsar]

Is there a way to see what got you kills in a game?

It says I got 3 kills and I only remember 2

[uneven flax]

https://tenor.com/view/son-sonion-ton-618-sonbrero-folk-gif-16038320848440085672

[uneven flax]

pennyshot is a such a garbage tool

fuck this gun

garbage as in too strong

[sick bramble]

Indeed it's very strong

[uneven flax]

pennyshot essentially un-punishes bad positioning

like it's your f ault for not bringing in a shotgun. why does pennyringer suddenly fixes that problem?

[sick bramble]

idk why the derringers are added even, tools shouldn't give pocket guns

[uneven flax]

i was winning a 1v3 and got fucked by a crossbow + penny

traded with the crossbow and the other guy penny'd me from 10 meters

fuck you

[sick bramble]

yeah having a third secondary is unnecessary

[uneven flax]

shit gun

too many utility on it

kill beetles, kill immos, shoot lamps etc etc and another shotgun

[brazen vapor]

POV I see my teammate trying to sneak away mid fight

[shut oxide]

I've been stuck in perpetual loading screen twice in the last hour on asian servers. Anyone else?

[lethal pulsar]

Games have been near instant for me all night "US East" servers

[trail cloak]

what are yalls favorite traits?

[lethal pulsar]

Its literally a different game when you get
[Beastface, Catalyst and Shadow]
On 1 hunter its easy mode I put away the bat for now 😆 🤣

[lethal pulsar]

Personally as a solo main i always start.
Nerco, blast Sense, Magpie and Salveskin

[stable tundra]

Why is there so many cheaters?

[sick bramble]

???

[trail cloak]

ive seen people talk abt it positively and im curious to how blast sense works

[lethal pulsar]

Its basic like having a bounty in dark sigh when someone shoots within 200m the closer you are the better the location detail are.

Like at 200m its Grey shots but closets its red like bounty drak sight.

Its amazing vs bush campers and if you solo getting the lay of the battlefield.

[trail cloak]

that sounds very cool ill try it out

sounds like it adds another layer of perception and tactics

[fathom shale]

For me at least it doesn't do anything that I can't figure out with my own hearing and the audio, but I can see it being useful to newer players I guess

[lethal pulsar]

It's a huge help if your a drunk like me 😆
Yes I play with a headset but im stuiped some times 😆 🤣 😂

[lethal pulsar]

We are not all gods like you

[fathom shale]

I mean that's not really what you need to be to just utilize hearing and the game audio

[lethal pulsar]

All my plays i post are solos while drunk and smoking weed 😆 🤣 playing games to have fun 👍 😁

[fathom shale]

All you need is decent headphones and some map knowledge

[lethal pulsar]

Im just goofing with you bro sorry if I was over a line

[mortal cove]

Will my headphones be enough?

[uneven flax]

Will never not defend blast sense. Blast sense gives you pinpoint location you wont otherwise get with just audio

It also helps confirm / show a quiet 200 meter shot in the first 5-10 minutes.

especially from flares

granted you could skip it for more critical traits especially when u have a trait-dependent loadout

blast sense also do not get drowned out by audio obviously

[light sky]

Meh, unless you have hearing issues I can't really see it being that useful

[uneven flax]

i run it in BH and dont run it in clash

[light sky]

I have 3.5k hours and never needed it

[uneven flax]

i have 50-50 exposure with and without blast sense

there's a factor there where you wish you had blast sense on

[torpid panther]

blast sense first pick every time

bc im bad and need all the help i can get

[steep orchid]

I'M BACK

[uneven flax]

[dreamy rampart]

I’m also a blast sense enjoyer

Only bc I like listening to music/watching a show while I play so having that extra visual is nice

[uneven flax]

Loadouts > Pick a Gun > Shift > Show 3d item

you can shoot the gun in various distances

it should give you an idea what the gun sounds like from 0 - 1000 meters

[trail cloak]

wait whaaaaaat

[left orbit]

ye

[trail cloak]

fantastic info omg

this means i can save blast sense for the katana one instead

[light sky]

Why gear fear

[uneven flax]

no im just not feeling running em rn

[light sky]

hm

[uneven flax]

well blast sense isnt really a distance locator. plus it has max 200 meter range.

[trail cloak]

true but it visualizes it

[uneven flax]

ah yes. the size of it

but it's more helpful for pinpointing X,Y coordinates

[trail cloak]

o ok

katana perk all day

last dude on the map, 10k hours players bwehehe

[lethal pulsar]

This is my load out

[raven totem]

you can farm up stuff from free hunters, after every match they refresh and you can just grab contraband off of them.

a big one is like, small vit shots

[lethal pulsar]

True but I do good with this cheap build. I have 20k hunter dollars but still

[raven totem]

I mean some free small vits in there could make a big difference

[lethal pulsar]

Ill grab them for this great call out bro

If you go down while poisoned can you no nerco yourself as a solo????

[gray aurora]

My 5 mmr teammates seems worse than 4 star

like there is now ppl who are like no dont ress me My kd

And just leaving if 2 ppl die

[hoary silo]

yo crytek how about actually banning people that break the rules?

aint no way i report a team killer and get him in on my team again 5 days later

[pine rose]

Does anyone know the distance you're able to see traits in dark sight?

[pine rose]

People still care about kd?

[gray aurora]

Prolly some tryhards trying to get 6 star

[pine rose]

Dawg I don't care many times I have to die as long as the number in my wallet goes up

[pine rose]

Who the fuck would want that

I hit six star once just to push myself and vowed to never reach that point again. The matches afterward were so unfun and boring

[uneven flax]

getting camped by 3 teams rn. aint that fun

[left orbit]

try to make it so they find each other

that way they forget a bit about you

they scorch each other

hopefully it's more of Hunt giveth than Hunt taketh.

Today was a great day on hunt for me.
Last week not so much I had to stop for 7 days the try hard where online and I died off spawn like 5 times

Got my kd to .60 today and earned 7k hunt dollors

well glad you're turning it around! I've been coming back strong myself

[graceful iris]

This is nitpicky but, I feel the recent dlc hunters are cool but lack the one small detail they used to do for almost every legendary hunter, giving cool effects when using darksight

Like on the montresor skin, the ring, in my opinion, should glow when you activate darksight

[grave rose]

vlad i need a favor from ya

[lethal pulsar]

Head wont hurt if your dead lol 😆 🤣 😂

[lethal pulsar]

Boom head shot

[raven totem]

is the ring alive?

[graceful iris]

There is many in inanimate objects on hunters hands that glow

[lethal pulsar]

I mean are zombies "alive"

They move and do stuff and they are undead 😆

[raven totem]

technically not by the whole darksight thing

[opal dawn]

There is also an in-game reporting button

[tall canopy]

the trains are really easy to shoot thru the cracks

[left orbit]

you sure it’s not just because dude was behind a window and you could not see because it’s just dark on dark?

i’ve had many kills from the train cabins really...

and if it’s from the wagons

you can shoot through the cracks

[grave rose]

can ya tell crytek to discount wolfsbane for me

[left orbit]

same story i got several kills there

[jovial knoll]

god i wish

but they're not listening to my pleas on that stuff

[tall canopy]

yet

vlad on the rise

[grave rose]

noooo

just clubbed a baby seal

[timber lichen]

He was INSIDE the train, not the wagon, but the locomotive where you're in no way supposed to get into.

[left orbit]

[left orbit]

yeah that’s what i talked about: it’s indeed easy to kill from, and harder to see that someone is in there

but now you know

so you’ll look closer at these cabins

learn & move on

there is nothing to report there

[timber lichen]

Man, I have spectated and he was inside it, but like under, so like desync

Lemme clip it

[lime mural]

Howdy Eddy

[paper anvil]

Hunt if it had match replays

https://tenor.com/view/mundo-feliz-onetreehsll-world-if-gif-14071235670792471304

[left orbit]

ye that would be helpful

the wording would be that the dude "clipped inside" the cabin instead of just sitting at the driver seat

[timber lichen]

Sending it to you in PM

[timber lichen]

Imagine...

[left orbit]

i feel bad for i eradicated an entire team with a mosin

[mortal cove]

Console gameplay? In the Hunt Discord?

[left orbit]

at least the mosin used to belong to a solo i killed too

[left orbit]

reprost

[sick bramble]

why the fk they move like this

[left orbit]

bb dusts people on console

[sick bramble]

it's like 1 star movement

[mortal cove]

I genuinly thought that's a grunt in the start of the clip

[mortal cove]

Now you're just being a hater Grug

[sick bramble]

nah fr lol

look how they move

[mortal cove]

I know

[sick bramble]

his friend died to a sniper and he approaches with exact same movement

bruh

[mortal cove]

You know what kind of music I tend to listen to when playing Hunt?

Terraria Calamity music

Me out here headshotting people in Hunt while listening to the Devourer of Gods OST

[sick bramble]

i can never listen to music while playing hunt

need them audio cues

[mortal cove]

Just have headphones so good you can still seperate the music and ingame cues without much issue

Like me

skill issue

git gud

[sick bramble]

lol i doubt the best headphones out there will do this properly, music will still affect audio cue hearing

[mortal cove]

Come over to austria

I'll show you some fucking magic

[sick bramble]

maybe later

[mortal cove]

In my mind I sounded like David Blaine

[uneven flax]

Should i wait for stalker 2 2.0 or buy it now

i have a new job in 2 weeks

[mortal cove]

"You want to see some fucking magic"

[uneven flax]

[mortal cove]

Honestly.... until the engine upgrade I don't recommend it, the CPU performance of Stalker 2 is genuine piss

[uneven flax]

even with a normal cpu?

i have a 5700x3d

[mortal cove]

"Can't maintain 60fps in Rostok with a 9800X3D" tier piss

[uneven flax]

daym. you did play 1.9 tho?

[mortal cove]

I played all versions, modded and unmodded

Games' performance is just ass

And the visuals are also full of issues unless you mod them with smth like Ultra+

[uneven flax]

fuck that shit

aint got no time to mod bro i just wanna play cause my new job is gonna be brutal

:<

[jovial knoll]

Well, goodbye Hunt giveth, hello Hunt taketh

Two borked matches in a row

[uneven flax]

i tried stalker gamma but that shit just plop me in the middle of bumfuck nowhere

i want a real game not a sandbox make ur own story

[mortal cove]

Tbf, Ultra+ is super easy to install at least

Just download the Ultra+ manager and it will install the mod for you

[uneven flax]

oh the ultra+ basically has recommended mod packages and shit

problem with mods is update compatibility

this is why id rather stay vanilla on games still being updated

[mortal cove]

Ultra+ manager has many UE5 games you can install U+ mods for

I talk with the devs a lot too, Lazorr, MMike and co. are all really awesome people

[sick bramble]

why are you trying to mod stalker? it's fine as is

[mortal cove]

Stalker 2 just looks like ass without Ultra+

Lumen is entirely broken vanilla

The LODs are comically bad

etc.

[sick bramble]

it looked fine for me with like 2 nvidia filters applied

[mortal cove]

Ultra+ raises the GPU load, but you get an actually servicable looking game

[mortal cove]

You can't fix outright broken indoor lighting with a filter lmao

Like:

[sick bramble]

you can, it worked for me lol

[mortal cove]

This is with Ultra+
It actually fixes the broken lighting and Lumen implementation.

[sick bramble]

brightness & contrast + RTX dynamic filter both will fix poor lighting

[mortal cove]

No, that is just objectively wrong

lmao

[uneven flax]

i mean Luu got standards of a posh bisexual man being served a filet mignon and a plate of mont blanc

[mortal cove]

You can not fix light leakage with a fucking filter

[sick bramble]

dude the first picture looks better lmao

[mortal cove]

That is just not how that works

[uneven flax]

watching youtube videos stalker 2 look pretty enough

performance is gonna be a problem though. i dont exactly have a top tier cpu

5700x3d is strong but it aint 2026 tier

[mortal cove]

Stalker 2's performance is poor no matter what you do really

Hence why I'm waiting for the Engine upgrade to UE5.6

[uneven flax]

ill research more.

[mortal cove]

To do a proper new playthrough of the game

[uneven flax]

i just want a single player game with deep loot, lots of guns and the vibe of hunt and hunt's handcrafted maps

hunt truly has ruined games for me

[mortal cove]

UE5.6 has a lot of options to implement far more efficient CPU pathways

So the expectation is that upgrading to UE5.6 will improve the CPU performance of Stalker 2 drastically

[mortal cove]

Another thing that urks me is that GSC downgraded the visuals with the 1.8 patch and then turned around and claimed they optimised the graphics

So not only is Lumen broken, they downgraded the visuals down the road

[uneven flax]

diabolical

[mortal cove]

At least with Ultra+ you can restore the downgrade

Then again, Ultra+ allows for visuals far beyond what the vanilla game can give you

[whole mist]

This one looks better

[uneven flax]

guess i'll wait for 2.0

ive refunded a lot of games recently i dont wanna risk a 35 dollar refund rejection

lol

[whole mist]

why can’t games release in a solid state

[mortal cove]

a LOT better

[whole mist]

Hate this “I’ll just wait 2 years for the game to be fixed” trend

[mortal cove]

I don't mind

Steam sales exist

If games don't release in a good state

I can buy them for 10€ on a sale when they're fixed

[whole mist]

First one has such sharp transitions

[mortal cove]

[mortal cove]

That artifact is called light leakage, it's what happens with poorly setup lighting

[whole mist]

I wait for sales cuz I don’t wanna pay full price. Not cuz a game is also broken at launch, but yeah

[woeful ermine]

Here's a question for you. How do you get a farthest kill of 1,440 when the map is 1km x 1km?

[sick bramble]

from corner to corner

[woeful ermine]

Whaaat??? How is that even possible??

[astral moss]

Can we have a new event yet ?

[woeful ermine]

Dude must've been testing a hack for research purposes 😛

[mortal cove]

Last game I paid full price for was RE9

And before that Total Chaos

[whole mist]

I need to get total chaos. Forgot about tha

[mortal cove]

But for RE9 I was highly confident that it's good because of the director being the same as RE7

[astral moss]

Lol the instant hackusation. XD

[mortal cove]

Genuinly one of the best remakes of a game I have played

The Doom 2 total conversion mod is great

But the Unity 5 remake is an exceptional survival horror game

[astral moss]

Lack of knowledge in something really make the hackusation easier in this game i see.

[woeful ermine]

hey I guess you miss all the shots you dont take eh? 😉

[late walrus]

son

the furthest kill distance used to be bugged in the sense that traps counted towards it

[woeful ermine]

Ok so you defo think its possible to get a kill from one corner of the map to the other?

[astral moss]

Yes cause #hunt-general message

[late walrus]

so they wouldve had their friend queue snipe them, set a trap in the corner of the map at a high spot

[sick bramble]

traps

[mortal cove]

Wadaholic also managed to make the Hunter in NG+ even more menacing in the remake @whole mist

[sick bramble]

exist

[late walrus]

and then run to the opposite corner of the map

and their friend would run into the trap

giving them an absurd furthest kill distance

its no longer possible to do, but the numbers still remain on peoples trackers

[woeful ermine]

Waaaait traps count as distance I thought it was just weapon kills???

[late walrus]

they used to

[astral moss]

It is now.

[late walrus]

they werent meant to

but the number is still there from when they did count

[paper anvil]

Such a good game,the base game with the 2 endings is peak but they messed up ng+ ngl

[woeful ermine]

Yeah right makes sense then lol that's nuts.

[astral moss]

Traps hacking.

[whole mist]

Also, I started Dead Space 3…..

the new crafting system is buns. Maybe I’ll get used to it but….

I’m also not a fan of the more “action movie with a drizzle of horror” vibes this game has over the previous 2 @mortal cove

[woeful ermine]

Obviously

[mortal cove]

Dead Space 3 as a whole is just a better game in coop mode

Kinda buns in some portions in single player

[astral moss]

Just give us a new event and buff avto.

[mortal cove]

Wdym Wada messed up NG+?

[paper anvil]

I mean,i tried to play it but i doesn't feel like normal total chaos

It feels like the final chapter total chaos where it was more pew pew than horror and depressive environment

[west sequoia]

The dead space remake was lowkey amazing, didn't finish tho cause Silent hill 2 remake came out when I was playing, had to focus on that

[mortal cove]

That is kind of the point of NG+, it was like that in the original mod as well.
It's a more brutal combat driven gauntlet where you have to balance the brutal difficulty spike with avoiding the Hunter

[mortal cove]

The irony is that some of the best improvements from Dead Space remake come from Dead SPace 3

[west sequoia]

But at least they learnt and took stuff from the third to improve the remake

[mortal cove]

Ofc with the difference that Dead SPace remake implemented DS3's mechanics in a more coherrent manner

Anyway

Back to Hunt

[fathom shale]

Me when the last 8 messages in Hunt gen chat are not Hunt related

9

[mortal cove]

NO, MY LAST MESSAGE WAS HUNT RELATED

[fathom shale]

Ok I'll let it slide

8.5

Anyway could be either or

[mortal cove]

I outsmarted you mod man

[fathom shale]

Man I had to order new pads for my headphones again even though I just replaced the original ones last year, and the new ones didn't even last a year

They just failed at the seams and the inner foam is visible

[mortal cove]

A year is long for pads when you use the headphones a lot

HD600 stock pads can wear out after just 2 months when used a lot

[fathom shale]

Well my previous ones lasted way longer

[mortal cove]

It's one of the biggest criticisims I can give the HD600 line-up of headphones, the stock pads are ass when it comes to longevity

[fathom shale]

Got some 3rd party ones this time to see if they are any better, last ones were supposedly from the original manufacturer

[mortal cove]

What headphones are you using?

[fathom shale]

HD6XX

[mortal cove]

Yeah

1 whole year for HD600 pads is loooooong

[fathom shale]

I guess I won the silicon lottery equivelant of headphone pads with my original pads

[mortal cove]

You already had major frequency response shifts after just 3-4 months most likely

[fathom shale]

Those things lasted and only reason I replaced them was that they were getting kinda nasty

[mortal cove]

If you want 3rd party pads that actually last and don't change the sound of the headphones drastically, I highly recommend SOULWIT cooling gel pads @fathom shale

[fathom shale]

I did consider getting some more special pads from Dekoni audio but didn't feel like spending 40-70€ for pads, so went with some basic velour ones from Brainwavz

[paper anvil]

Yk,theoretically total chaos ain't off topic and i'll prove it
TOTal cHaOS
HunT SHOwdOwn 1896

Common letters: 4
Common letters found in total chaos: 6
Common letters found in hunt: 6
Therefore hunt and total chaos are equally on topic

[mortal cove]

Meh, both Dekoni and Brainwavz have no options that don't drastically alter the sound of the headphones

Pretty mediocre, especially for the price

The Soulwit pads are like 20 bucks on Amazon

and actually retain the stock sound of the headphones

[fathom shale]

I'm scared of Amazon as a finnish person

[sick bramble]

my ears get hot and sweaty in hunt, i need me one of those

[fathom shale]

Even when using amazon de I have only ordered like 1-2 things from there in my entire life

[mortal cove]

You can prolly procure them from somewhere else

But the Soulwit cooling gel pads are imo the only reasonable alternative for the HD600 line of headphones when it comes to 3rd party pads

Everything else just alters the sound too much

[fathom shale]

I'll keep them in mind for the next time I need to replace them

Jeez they are 42€ with shipping

[cursive magnet]

Prime time on a sunday and my wife gets 11 6* players while being solo 3*

[fathom shale]

Prime time where? Not on EU yet at least

[cursive magnet]

EU

[fathom shale]

Couple more hours until the prime time in EU

[uneven flax]

need to replace my maxwell's strap as well. mine so hard why is hard rubber straps a thing

its so ass

[fathom shale]

But shouldn't make that big of a difference either way

[mortal cove]

Still decent

[uneven flax]

@mortal cove medium settings 1080p dlss with 3080ti. 90 fps. that is so ass bro.

[mortal cove]

And that's outside, not inside a city

In cities the CPU really gets thrashed

[uneven flax]

https://tenor.com/view/game-of-thrones-tommen-jumps-out-of-window-done-gif-7148617

[uneven flax]

50fps in a rundown village

[mortal cove]

Ye, Rostok will prolly drop you into the 30s

[uneven flax]

this is 1 year ago but still

its still 30 dollars where i am and that's like 7 hunt DLCs without sale

bad value if it'll run like hot cheeks

[opal dawn]

It will run like hot cheeks

[mortal cove]

Hence why I said it's worth waiting until the UE5.6 upgrade

[uneven flax]

guess im going back to IRR

[upbeat lark]

i dunno if stalker 2 is just poorly optimized or iff its just that harsh in resource usage

[uneven flax]

No other game in this world should run worse than Cyberpunk 2077

[west sequoia]

both tbh

[uneven flax]

stalker 2 looks tame in comparison

[mortal cove]

Poorly optimised for the most part

Which tbf is partially an issue with Stalker 2 running on UE5.1

[west sequoia]

But that's a problem with most game devs nowadays, just almost skipping optimization

The best optimization i've seen yet in years is on Resident Evil Requiem

[uneven flax]

that is an incredibly linear experience

with minimal activity

it probably renders and computes within 20 feet

[west sequoia]

Ofcourse you can't compare that to an open-world, but in their defense it's still a 2026 game completely new

RDR2 has an okay optimization tho

[uneven flax]

but in terms of resource need open world games are way way more intense

[mortal cove]

It renders a lot more geometry than Stalker 2 does

[uneven flax]

graphically and computationally

[mortal cove]

RE9 uses mesh shaders to a really effective degree

[mortal cove]

Please try to avoid RDR2 in any optimisation discussion.

[uneven flax]

RDR2 ran like ass on hardware of its time

[mortal cove]

RDR2 has amazing optimisation and was quite ahead of the curve in a lot of ways tech wise

But RDR2 also cost 800mil usd to develop

With tons of crunch

[fathom shale]

Ok but what about Hunt's optimization

[mortal cove]

That's... just false?

[uneven flax]

i played it day 1 on PC

idk about consoles

[mortal cove]

RDR2 ran like ass if you ran it at max settings on PC.... but those also go waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay beyond what consoles did

[west sequoia]

I run stable 140 on medium/high, so actually pretty nice, no dips aswell unless tons of action then I dip to 120

[uneven flax]

RDR2 had advanced settings you arent supposed to mess with without a NASA pc. but it was not very performant on mid tier hardware using the standard high settings - wc all games should be

[west sequoia]

The fact rdr2 ran on ps4 is a generational achievement

Even if it's 30 fps

[mortal cove]

RDR2 on like medium settings on PC (which mind you was still considerably higher than console settings) it ran like a charm on quite weak hardware.

[uneven flax]

did it now

iirc i played it on 1070ti/2070 super

[upbeat lark]

i run quite stable with laptop gpu rtx 3050 tho i have to use dlss so that theres no stuttering

[late walrus]

i played rdr2 on a 1080 no issues

[west sequoia]

Idk about that, what is weak hardware to you

[mortal cove]

RX 570

Which was weak hardware in 2018

[west sequoia]

I don't think RX 570 can run that game even now

[mortal cove]

RDR2? Yeah it can

Quite comfortably too

[west sequoia]

At 720P?

[mortal cove]

1080p medium to low settings

Trying to get to console like settings

[uneven flax]

high+ should be benchmark doe

[mortal cove]

The High settings on PC again are also way above console settings for RDR2

[uneven flax]

Remember lagging like fuck in st denis

but st denis is the worst city there tho

[mortal cove]

Like you can't complain about poor optimisations and then use settings that go way above the consoles as your target lmao

WHat kind of strawman is that?

[uneven flax]

i just dont agree console settings should be the benchmark settings for a PC game

it should be beyond console

[mortal cove]

Then also expect considerably worse than console performance?

Your logic is completely backwards here

[uneven flax]

There is nothing backwards with expecting a PC game to look better than console.....

[west sequoia]

I mean if you have console-price components it only makes sense you benchmark with console settings, no?

[mortal cove]

^

[uneven flax]

I dont think a 2070 was console hardware

[mortal cove]

I mean..... it's weaker than the PS5

By a good margin too

[uneven flax]

We're talking about 2019....

PS5 didnt exist yet then

[mortal cove]

Sure, but the 2070 also ran RDR2 really well

[uneven flax]

It run like booty cheeks iirc

maybe it's just St Denis

and maybe it was 99 fps instead of 100

[west sequoia]

When RDR2 came out I don't think there were much GPU's being able to run it at max settings high fps

It was far too advanced

[uneven flax]

thats what i was saying.

[west sequoia]

That doesn't necessarily mean bad optimisation, just means ahead of it's time

[uneven flax]

it didnt run especially good on hardware of its time. at least the average hardware. forgetting 2080s or 2099 ti pro maxes

[west sequoia]

If we're speaking from nowadays RDR2 had amazing optimisation

[mortal cove]

Sure, but running more optimal settings, you could also get an easy 40-50% performance gain.

[uneven flax]

Maybe it was optimized, maybe not. But what we're sure of was St Denis really tanked your FPS

And RDO is another winner for weaponized incompetence.

[west sequoia]

Elden ring aswell has amazing optimisation

[random nimbus]

[uneven flax]

i remember staring at a loading screen in RDO for 10 minutes straight before I got it and the lobby crashes

[uneven flax]

wtf no

60fps hardlock, no ultrawide, perfumers.

[west sequoia]

Played the game with a gtx 1050ti

[uneven flax]

Elden Ring is FAR from a discussion of optimized games

[random nimbus]

It used to be pretty bad

[west sequoia]

That is not anything connected to optimisation tho

[random nimbus]

Gane crashed a lot on release

[uneven flax]

how can u say a game is optimized if its hardlocked to 60fps? 60fps is garbage on PC.

no one play on 60fps anymore

[mortal cove]

With all respect to all what is holy No

[uneven flax]

except natablu or something with their 101C laptop

[west sequoia]

No it's not, 60 is the standard and will be for many years to come

[random nimbus]

Fighting games are fps locked too

[mortal cove]

As much as I love Elden Ring, the technical state of the game is a disaster

[uneven flax]

yeah. Elden Ring had PEAAAAAAK art direction and gameplay

[heady dove]

many fighting games are locked to 60fps because if it is not 60fps it doesn't function correctly

[uneven flax]

but it is not wowza on technical

[random nimbus]

It's also a consistent way to have proper frame data

[mortal cove]

Poor shader pre-compilation, streaming stutters, etc.

[west sequoia]

I mean the fact that you could look at the whole map and not have your game crash with those graphics is quite impressive, no?

[uneven flax]

id argue elden ring has terrible graphics. the art just carried it hard

then you have perfumers legitimately breaking the fourth wall by damaging your frame rate

[mortal cove]

The only technicality where From Software continues to deliver is animations

[random nimbus]

If you're doing a block punish and you need to know the frame data, it being capped means everyone is working with the same numbers

[mortal cove]

From Software's graphics engine has no animation errors or the like

Which is fantastic

And is one of the reasons combat feels so good in FromSoft titles

But the actual framedelivery is ass

[west sequoia]

But we forgot one game with i'd say worst optimisation ever, the last of us titles on pc

[random nimbus]

Mammons Gulch had horrible optimization on release

[opal dawn]

Grizzly lodge absolutely tanked my mates fps

[random nimbus]

Go to Grizzly Lodge

And it was like playing on an N64

[uneven flax]

didnt inferno have terrible fps it basically slept for 2 years in the game

[mortal cove]

Kind of? Kind of not?
Really depended on the hardware.

The issue with TLOU P1 and P2 on PC were about scaling to lower end hardware, the HIGH and Very High settings were well tuned and highly optimised It was the medium and low settings that were catastrophic, which also lead to gamers with low VRAM GPUs (10GB or less) to have massive issues with those games.

[random nimbus]

I personally never had issues with Inferno, but I believe the second one ran better

[uneven flax]

I think TLOU1 had denuvo issues. it ran great without it.

[mortal cove]

From what I could tell, most of the issues with Hunt 2.0 could be traced back to VRAM

[west sequoia]

I mean there is no way that an RX 6600 8gb couldn't run Part 1, to me it semt absurd

[mortal cove]

I ran a 4090 with 24GB and never ran into issues

But most of the people having meaty framedrops in 2.0 were with 6-10GB GPUs

[random nimbus]

I have a 4080 super and Grizzly was like a slideshow for me lol

[uneven flax]

i have 16gb gpu and 32gb ram. i still have to lower Hunt's object quality and distance.

i think it has memory leak issue or whateverthefuck is causing my game to stutter

[mortal cove]

From what I remember, 1440p Ultra could max out at 18GB VRAM

I kept recording VRAM utilisation during gameplay at the time

4K Ultra maxed out at 22GB

So even with a 4090 you could cut it pretty close at 4K

[random nimbus]

I had also capped my fps at the time to 60 because of my monitor and still had awful drops.

[mortal cove]

BUT then again you wouldn't run 4K Ultra settings in Hunt, performance just isn't great

[uneven flax]

the ultimate future proof is 1080p ultrawide on a x70Ti plus card

[random nimbus]

It was not our hardware that caused the issues

[west sequoia]

I love how cyberpunk didn't give up on their game and actually fixed their HUGE issues and now the game runs quite well

[mortal cove]

It was and wasn't

[uneven flax]

it was the friends we made along the way

[mortal cove]

Crytek's reaction to the complaints is changing how the asset streaming works

Now you just get blobby textures instead if you run out of VRAM

[wheat elm]

can confirm, recently upgraded to a 4k oled monitor and holy shit i had to drop most settings to medium andturn on dlss... on performance 😔

[mortal cove]

Did you at least upgrade DLSS to a newer preset?

[gusty ore]

i mean i get that elo is nearly infinite in 6* but that shouldnt mean i push 2* 3* to 5* Team MMR

[random nimbus]

Yes it does

[uneven flax]

this is a great MMR.

[wheat elm]

I forgot which one is selected, i believe its still set to M? or L? gotta check

[tall canopy]

brother

[gusty ore]

na man i cant even play solo
if i do i play against 3 6*

[uneven flax]

do you know the difference between a 2* and a 6?

its like an adult beating a baby with its own leg.

This 6* is gonna such easy games if they were in 2-3*

[mortal cove]

That's good then, preset M is pretty awesome for 4K

[random nimbus]

And that's why you're pulling them up so much so you can't use them as fodder to tank your team mmr to play against easier opponents.

[gusty ore]

2* 3* 6* should add to like 4*-4,5* imo

[mortal cove]

I use preset M with a custom 75% res scale at 4K for Hunt @wheat elm (So above DLSS Quality but below DLAA)

[uneven flax]

trios with a 2-3* and 6* should always fight against 5* plus.

[gusty ore]

i aint
i just play with whoever

[cursive magnet]

My 2* wife and my 6* ass make up a 5,5* mmr for some reason

[random nimbus]

I'm not saying you specifically are doing that. The point is the system is preventing that situation because people will do it

[uneven flax]

there is still worlds of difference between 4* and 6*

plus, your 2 star and 3 star could have 2.5 and 3.5 match mmr

[random nimbus]

You'd have trios with a fresh 1 star that was just death fodder to tank the team mmr

And the fodder mmr didn't go up because they only died

[uneven flax]

in MOBA games. If youre a low rank playing with high rank, the low ranker gets into the high rank matchmaking

It should be that way for Hunt IMO.

the difference of skill between an unemployed 6* and the average 3-4* is worlds apart

[random nimbus]

So they make you pull lower mmr players up much more than they drop you to avoid the exploit

[wheat elm]

whats ur gpu?

[uneven flax]

i am a 4* who played with a 1-2* friend. and the enemies in 2-3*. holy.

[mortal cove]

5090

[uneven flax]

this is just 1 star difference but their gameplay is already noticeable worse than mine

[wheat elm]

ah makes sense then, do you even reach 100% utilization on hunt?

[cursive magnet]

why would you use any form of upscaling or anything on a 5090

[uneven flax]

whats your job beatch

[mortal cove]

I run 4K medium + Ultra textures + DLSS preset M at 75% to always get >200fps @wheat elm

[mortal cove]

Because 4K DLSS preset M is superior to any form of Anti-Aliasing that Hunt ships with while also giving me higher fps in the process and the GPU draws less power It's a win win win on all fronts.

[uneven flax]

is playing on high really nerfing my pvp performance. i cant stomach lowering hunt settings. game looks pretty af

whenever i post clips on reddit people are like "why does your game look pretty". these people have been playing hunt with potato graphics for 5000 hours they forgot what the game looks like

[wheat elm]

I see

so i guess half of ur gpu isnt even being utilized

[mortal cove]

I run at 100% utilisation all the time lmao

Not sure what you are talking about

[random nimbus]

People would run lower performance just to derender at long ranges

[wheat elm]

im waiting for the 5080 super/ti to come out to upgrade, i hate having to use dlss, even on quality the blurriness is annoying on hunt

[uneven flax]

as long as the framerate isn't capped gpu utilization will always be near max.

unless youre playing an old game at 500fps

[mortal cove]

DLSS preset M in Quality mode looks better than any other solution

[wheat elm]

not every time, sometimes u can be cpu bottlenecked when you do that

[mortal cove]

It's sharper and higher performance than using SMAA or no AA

[uneven flax]

wont be a problem with an equivalently strong CPU

[mortal cove]

That isn't really an issue in Hunt with a 9800X3D

Given that CPU can easily hold 300fps in Hunt at medium settings

[paper anvil]

@mortal cove wanna trade pcs ? I got a 3050 6gb, i'd say it's fair

[uneven flax]

what u work as

[wheat elm]

yeah but on quality mode i get like 80 fps with not so great frametime so it doesnt feel good

[mortal cove]

What's your current GPU?

[wheat elm]

i already upgraded my cpu to a 9950x3d which helped quite a bit with 1% lows

[wheat elm]

4080 super

[paper anvil]

Luu either lives in a cardboard box but has an expensive pc or has enough money to buy collector's bundle without a care

[cursive magnet]

A 5090 isn't that impossible to get

[mortal cove]

Ouh, you could be running out of VRAM

[uneven flax]

the secret ingredient is crime

[mortal cove]

16GB at 4K in Hunt is quite tight actually

[paper anvil]

Yeah but for most people it isn't the first thing they'd buy

[mortal cove]

Especially when DLSS preset M at 4K can consume half a GB of VRAM just for itself

[cursive magnet]

If your hobby is gaming, it's not surprising they are

[mortal cove]

I was insanely lucky, only paid 350€ for the 4090 Strix to 5090 Astral upgrade

Sold the Strix for 2100€ got the Astral for 2450€

[wheat elm]

oh yeah, even with balanced it was close to using up 15gb of vram

[paper anvil]

https://tenor.com/view/toystory-jealous-no-done-ken-gif-5034975

[mortal cove]

Otherwise I wouldn't have upgraded at all

[wheat elm]

performance at least gives me 150fps on medium

[mortal cove]

It is nice that the medium preset in Hunt genuinly still looks pretty good

It retains the art direction super well

Especially if you can up the texture quality above medium on top

[paper anvil]

Y'all ain't lived until you played on a 3050 6gb, dlss performance, medium-high (shadows on low)

[wheat elm]

honestly yeah, medium doesnt look half bad altho theres some artefacts present, especially with lighting and foliage

[paper anvil]

On 80fps-100fps

[mortal cove]

Ye, hard to avoid

Gonna need a 6090 so I can retain my current fps at the very high preset

[uneven flax]

my gpu progression was basically

Intel HD 4000
GT 750M
1060
1070ti
2070 super
4070
5070 ti

i have experienced them all

[mortal cove]

and then a 7090 to get 4K 224fps locked on Ultra with DLAA

[uneven flax]

if youre a student playing on a gaming laptop or a computer. youre already luckier than most gamers

many people only get to heal their inner child past 25+

[mortal cove]

My first GPU was the 8800 GT inside the Apple Macbook Pro series from 2008

[uneven flax]

fuck youre old

disgusting old man

[mortal cove]

You know, the one that was so bad, it caused Apple to never partner with Nvidia ever again

[uneven flax]

go back to the retirement home

[uneven flax]

expound

[paper anvil]

Unc

[mortal cove]

My main GPU progression from there on was:
8800 GT mobile
280 GTX
GTX 770 2GB
GTX 1080
RTX 2080 ti
RX 6900XT
RTX 4090
RTX 5090

[paper anvil]

Tbh i think i'll quit gaming after highschool

[mortal cove]

Please note the moment I actually had access to money

You can clearly see the transition point

[paper anvil]

Gonna do a ton of stuff

Get a car,get some medieval things

[uneven flax]

bro tasted a bit of Radeon and got the fuck out as soon as he can

[paper anvil]

Maybe bench 150kg by then

[mortal cove]

Radeon Regret™ is what I call it

[dense girder]

I've learnt that outright quitting isn't so necessary, but as long as you prioritize other things in life over spending the whole day wasting away in videogames, that's a good mindset.

[whole mist]

I deffo have that

I went from:
750ti (my beloved)
2060
6600
6700xt

[mortal cove]

My funniest Radeon Regret™ experience is with a friend when he upgraded from a 1080ti to a 7900XTX.

And he had so, so so many issues with the XTX

After 6 months of really trying to give the GPU a fair shot, he sold it and got a 4080

He's been using that same 4080 since

[frigid ibex]

1080ti legendary gpu

[whole mist]

I’ve had a few driver issues with Radeon. It’s annoying.

No issues with Nvidia

[mortal cove]

He likes to play VR racing games

THe XTX was so bad for VR

He sold his racing gear to cope

[whole mist]

Why did he go Radeon?

[proud sand]

today im gonna get banned for cheating

im playing too well

[south shore]

There will be no Luu slander here

[whole mist]

BRO

[uneven flax]

Luu needed a buddy in his remorse club

[paper anvil]

I mean,i got more priorities over gaming,def won't fully quit

[mortal cove]

Cope, he wanted to believe it can't be as bad as some people say

He continued to cope for 6 months

[paper anvil]

But i don't think i'll get in more than 1-2h in after highschool

I really need a 150kg-200kg bench

[uneven flax]

1-2h per day is what most adults play with

[mortal cove]

What broke him in the end with the XTX was when he wanted to record gameplay and ReLive just gave out on him @whole mist

[south shore]

https://tenor.com/view/so-old-gif-27277116

[whole mist]

Gotta love when the audio cuts out the last 5 min of a recording

That happens to me

or just straight doesn’t capture

Even tho I KNOW I hit the hotkey

[paper anvil]

If i bench 200kg in a hunt trait shirt,will hunt devs give me collector's bundle for free ?

[whole mist]

Sonion

200kg

lol

[spice sundial]

brotassium

[south shore]

How many is that

Scooter help

[spice sundial]

freedom units

[whole mist]

At least 1 lb

[south shore]

Yeah how many

[mortal cove]

The story goes deeper, when the buddy sold the XTX and got the 4080, he tracked the guy he sold the card too and found it that 8 months later The guy he sold the XTX to did the EXCACT SAME THING LMAO

Sold the XTX for an even lower price and got a 4080 Super

[spice sundial]

440.9245 lbs

[whole mist]

the curse spreads

[south shore]

Fuck me thats a few

[paper anvil]

0.99lb

[mortal cove]

Genuinly one of the most hilarious things ever

[spice sundial]

maybe a coffee or something first? damn

[paper anvil]

If i bench 200 i'll finally hit all my shots in hunt

[whole mist]

I’d sell my 6700xt but I’d probably get nothing for it @mortal cove

[uneven flax]

what are you 15

are 15 year olds supposed to be benching 200

[paper anvil]

I can do it by 20

[whole mist]

😭

[south shore]

Way ahead of you

[frigid ibex]

People so obsessed with benching they dont do anything else in the gym

Ive seen them

[whole mist]

Looks like you’re making clay

[paper anvil]

None,bro world record for 15y is like 140kg

Or 150kg idk for sure

[spice sundial]

delicious

[dense girder]

Average broccoli head

[frigid ibex]

Real

[paper anvil]

Only benching is stupid

[whole mist]

I’ve never seen a 315lb bench in person

[uneven flax]

i dont even bench anymore. i had a wrist injury 2 years in due to some fucked luck and 2 years later i still havent benched a barbell once

i do dumbbell presses tho

[paper anvil]

Having a 200kg bench is meh without a 300kg+ deadlift

[whole mist]

people don’t realize how rare a 200kg bench is

[frigid ibex]

I do dumbbell stuff, so I don't need assist

[whole mist]

stuck on instagram 24/7

[uneven flax]

looks instant

[frigid ibex]

And tiktok

And YouTube

[paper anvil]

100kg is like top 1% in the entire population sure but it ain't that rare among gym goers

At least gym goers that are male

[uneven flax]

in order to have those kind of numbers i need to be a fat fuck with an absurd amount of muscles at 166cm

[wheat pilot]

The only guy I've talked to who did a 200kg bench said it took him like 16 or 17 years of training to do it

[south shore]

?

[whole mist]

I can’t even bench 100kg

[south shore]

Its not

[whole mist]

I don’t even bench

[uneven flax]

just baiting. what's the coffee made of!

[south shore]

https://tenor.com/view/wouldnt-you-like-to-know-weather-boy-gif-15559185

[uneven flax]

my max dumbbell bench press is 100lbs 3x12 reps

[frigid ibex]

All I wanted was a nice beach body so I worked out every muscle I could think of while also running a lot

[paper anvil]

I mean,it depends on genetics a lot tbh

[frigid ibex]

It worked well

[paper anvil]

And if you just mess around a ton in your first few years

[uneven flax]

that sounds a little kinky..

[frigid ibex]

Never wanted to get into, I wanna lift a high max weight once

Really weird mindset

[dense girder]

That's the right mindset.

[frigid ibex]

It is a good mindset cause you see results

[paper anvil]

If i get 100kg (around 225lbs for americans) by the end of the year am happy
