New event is a comin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wumQYLcvdes&t=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7bP34vZXAU
Hoping the new tool isn't a meme
>>2921848The new tool is a long ammo derringer/ lancaster
They leaked the entire update including the new boss on reddit, did anyone manage to save it before they deleted it?
>more event slopI miss hunt
>Strongholds are goneJust remove the whole game homie
>>2924971Strongholds got boring after the first week
>>2924523this feels like the old events that were basically normal gameplay but with random totems to click while in game, instead of major things that disrupt the loop like the strongholds did, so it is basically old hunt
91gb update, see you next week
Thank God amerimuttslop is finally over, two events in a row of that shit. Isn't crytek german? Why appeal to americans for two events in a row? Nothing feels worse than getting a skin just for it to be literally a fucking flag wrapped around the gun or some other gay shit.
>>2926121I want more gothic and vodoo stuff in the future, honestly this event is the best
Darkest Dungeon ruined vampires for methe bat stuff is overdone and boringusing mosquitoes is so much cooler
Is this game fun solo?
>>2931185I agree It would fit the bayou better too
I just find the level resets so retarded, why cap it at 100? It just makes tryhards play with a full loadout on every match while playing against people who don't even have any weapons unlocked (or money to buy them).How is that fun?
>>2931800and you have hives already to give an extra special mob you without much work needed
>>2931942Like, congratulations for killing a guy who can't even afford the full hp regen shot
>>2932014>AffordI am like 9th prestige and have never once been unable to buy anything with hunt dollars, I always have way too many.The economy in this game is tacked on and pretty pointless currently
>>2932258I'm not a good player and I more often than not play solo.You get $300 per match when you lose even when you kill people, that means if the stuff you bring is over 300 you're losing money every time you play.Picrel costs $331.
>>2932385I highly recommended queuing with randoms then as thats what I do as a 'solo' player. Everyone i've ever played with has been sound and more often than not they carry me or revive me when I would otherwise be downed.I find it way more fun running around and surrounding a compound with two randoms next to me, even if we barely communicate the pings are great
blood moon is neat
>>2932385That means you can yeet about 10 full loadouts for 300 hunt dollars. Thats what you get for one round of Soul Survivor while not risking a dime. If anything else fails you just run free hunters for a few rounds and focus on collecting map loot and bailing. I'm basically the same as you, but money reall is no problem. When you unlock the Vulture trait, you can also buy a hunter for 100 bucks, set them up with free hunter gear and go into games to pilfer player corpses from other fights which pays out bigly if you extract.
>>2932385Also you can just take that Marathon from free hunters and save 100 bucks. Actually you can just take the weapons and basic utilities from them too and save most of your loadout costs.
Btw I got my copy from a free key that some Hunt general Anon dropped like a year ago, found the thread in the archives and the key still worked.If you're on here , thanks bro
>>2926121Its set in america and the devs likely grew up with Spaghetti Westerns like all of us.Besides, their civil war is the only war americans ever fought that had some chest hair , so I get riffing on that for a bit.
>>2931942I have 200k hunt dollars with a sub 1 k/d and extract with a bounty something like once every 3 times, money is a non issue in hunt (thankfully) just grind for a while and you'll never have issues ever again, also don't prestige, it's just dumb unless you really want the skins
So, if the new boss is made by Lynch, and lynch is a playable hunter, how does it work playing as her and killing her own creation? What's the lore? It made some sense having Lynch kill the other bosses as she's against the sculptor, but what about the bloodskin?
>>2936124nigga who gives a shit
>>2936215I do
>>2936215I'm autistic enough to care about that stuff, I don't even play with a gun that doesn't fit with the hunter skin I'm using (still waiting for crytek to actually give me a cool looking loudout + hunter for something I like to use) so major stuff like a boss and a legendary hunter not fitting the lore greatly irks me.
>new event>it just makes the already shittiest part of the game even worseThe unlimited funnel of enemy AI into teams was funny at first but it just reinforces the meta of not interacting with other teams until someone's stupid enough to be the first to make noise and get collapsed on.
>>2936525Not sure what you're on, the AI is as easy as always even during the speed boost, and the blood moon phase is so noisy you can basically run around inches away from other players and you won't hear eachother, the devs keep trying to find ways to make being a push wookie less risky (by making everyone deaf) and I hate it, they want this game to be faster for some reason.
>>2936572>the AI is as easy as always even during the speed boostAI has never been difficult, it's just annoying when you're in a fight and it all descends on a team; the event makes them come running in from a mile away in an endless trickle giving the choice between shooting the copious amounts of AI running at you or accepting you're going to be slapped upside the head while someone takes advantage of it.>and the blood moon phase is so noisy you can basically run around inches away from other players and you won't hear eachotherwhich is also shit.>they want this game to be faster for some reason.Because they've long accepted the gameplay has been getting stale for years due to matches frequently being all teams refusing to interact with each other sitting outside of the boss compound; it isn't until someone starts fighting another team that they attempt to third party.Every half-assed attempt to fix it like taking inspiration from Siege and adding beetles to "counter" camping (without actually understanding why drones in r6 work) hasn't done anything.
>>2936525people dont have 50 hunters with shadow already?
>>2936603Seems they are experimenting around with making the AI more aggressive to froce players to act. I wouldn't be surprised if the basegame AI gets buffed afterwards to no longer make it feasible to sit around in a compound without making noise. Rs6 did a similar thing, they just masively shortened round timers to force the attackers to actually push instead of fagging around the map.
>>2937942>Rs6 did a similar thingTherefore it's probably shit like everything they've ever done to the game since release.I still remember the operation health memes, I think I still got diamond there that season but I already knew they'd pander more and more to counter strike kids on that game.Look where they are now. Fucking retarded faggot pink skins everywhere, rushing being the meta when back then the "retarded ash player rushing and dying in 5 seconds" was clown behavior.
>>2938354Thats not what I was on about , but the fact that they need to put pressure on campers in some way that doesn't change the flow of the current gameplay too much. Everyone sitting around and having a staring contest until someone blinks is just going to get old for too many people eventually.
>>2938583Just get two subway surfers gameplay videos on your third and fourth screen zoomie, and increase your ritalin intake so you don't start shaking after not having your fried dopamine receptors firing for 10 whole seconds.
does anyone use anything other than the spear as melee? I honestly see no reason not to
>>2938967i use dusters mainly
>>2938967Spears feel awful if you don't perma run stam shots no?
>>2939313yeah and who exactly doesn't use stam shots? Between conduit, boons, magpie and regular shot I'm never without stamina, and the spear melts mobs, melts bosses, is throwable and good backup during a firefight, basically a one shot derringer. I want to use the knife because of the new cool skin but I see no practical reason to shoot myself in the foot like that.
dogshit broken game as usual
actually even more dogshit than I initially thought
>>2939608total nuhuntoid death
>burned out from the previous eventHonestly the knife, sword and katana skins look nice, but thats about itis this event going to evolve like the balloon shit did or is it just regular
>>2939729>is this event going to evolvehhaahhaahhAHHAHAHAAHHahahahaha LOL
>>2939757I mean the previous one did
>You have the chance to unlock a Tribute-exclusive hunterWhat?
>>2940113The not-zombie revenant.
Is there any way to cheese the 50 boss solo kills cheevo? I'm legitimately scared of them, I'm scared of the fire mobs too.
>>2940221Probably just sticky bombs.Not used them in forever but it should delete 80% of every bosses bar.Only issue is the assassin disappears after he spawns, so you have to shoot it in a split second before he dashes away.
>>2940955Right now it feels like the only boss is the new one and everyone is rushing to it, I usually get only 2 clues before someone killls him :(I was wondering if banishing the bounty clash target (which is already dead) would count towards the cheevo, it's much easier to do that than to kill a boss.
When are we getting this cutie?
>>2941676Soon
>>2942038I need to goon to her now though?
>>2941676finally my new main
>>2942158thats my wife
Can you use the quad derringer to kill imolators and fire breathers? Or does it have to be the pennis shot?
>big dynamite bundle gets the new boss down to 25% life>you can kill it in 3 seconds after thatnice ''boss'' you got there crytek
>>2939662>>2939673That's fucking brutal lol
specterniggers should rope asap
Any tips for a total noob to not get dunked on immediately? Should I even go for the boss in my first rounds or just try farming the map?
>>2948307Embrace the suck
>>2948307I can't really think of any huge tips to give but avoid setting off sound traps if you can and that crouch walking/climbing ladders is not silent.The game is basically just getting fucked until you figure out how to fuck on others, then it becomes abusing map and compound specific bullshit ;like sitting in the billion bushes of stillwater bayou like every other 6star
>>2948307There are no good tips, you'll keep getting fucked over and over by people with 6000 hours until you become one yourself.The whole game is a pyramid scheme where old players try to trick noobs into playing it so they can have fun. You can see that dynamic in all those "solo vs trios" videos on youtube where a loser faggot with more hours in hunt than it'd take to finish a formal uni course gets matched against people who installed the game 2 weeks ago and epically owns them (notice how they never check the post-game page where you can see their rank).You're just fodder.
>>2948307don't run in a straight line if you can help it
>>2941676holy shit they REALLY couldn't make it more obvious that this character is a doll/maria expy
>>2948307Stop using shit cheap loadouts as soon as you feel even a little comfortable with the matches. Not having the equipment and traits everyone else has means you're just piling on extra disadvantages on top of your inexperience. If your getting dunked on issue is that even in a "fair" fight where you didn't get instantly shot in the head out of nowhere, you still lose hopelessly, then your loadout is contributing to it too. Everyone else is using weapons they know, they have like 3 grenades, a regen shot, use first aid kits twice as fast and heal twice as much. A free loadout has none of these. If you find yourself thinking "man I wish I had x," well then take x with you in the loadout. I'm trash at the game and I still have 36k money after 80 hours, so as long as you don't go full guccimode with your guns, you should be fine financially.If your issue is that you are getting shot in the head out of nowhere, there's no easy fix.
>>2948307yeah just keep spamming drilling + full tools until you learn the game bucko :)
Sparks pistol + rival is way too much fun, I never thought I will enjoy a quickswap loadout>>2937942You don't need to interact with AI if you sit in a compound or a bush, only people who walk around get punished
>>2938967I almost exclusively use throwing knives, mostly to avoid screaming when I kill AI.Spear should work too but I like having 8 knives.
>>2949202>notice how they never check the post-game page where you can see their rankYeah most youtubers do derank to record seal clubbing but even those who don't will be matched against 3 and 4 stars, and the difference in skill between 4 and 5 stars is bigger than the difference between individual players within 5 or 6 star ranks.
>>2948307Don't parrot 6000 hours bush wookies and bring small/medium guns with low cycle time.Think vetterli, nagant officer, bornheim extended. Douboe barrel or slate for shotguns.Don't think mosin or lebel.The reason 6000 hours wookies take mosin is that they play a sniping game and only care about range and bullet velocity. Which is important but not as important at medium and short range.If you bring a pump/lever/bolt action with iron sights, take Iron Eye. But only if cycle time is low (like vetterli, krag or slate). Don't bring it if cycle time is high (like mosin). Take steady aim instead if you use scopes.On new characters I like lemat carbine because it has a rather big magazine, little to no kick, short cycle time, dosen't require any traits to use and you can bring slugs at a low cost.Another way is to quickswap from mosin/sparks/martini and finish your target with your secondary. Personally, I like sparks pistol with incendiary rounds for that.Take determination and greyhound.Bring regeneration shots. One big and one small if you're on a tight budget. Or 2 big. 3 small if you're a low rank.Cook dynamite. Dynamite sticks are pretty bad, if you want to bring dynamite, bring a bundle, or grenade. Big bundle is unusable without pitcher.
>>2953067I would say I'm mid or high 6* and have played against a lot of the popular European content creators. For example I play against rachta sometimes. If he is playing solo, I'm most likely to queue against him if I am playing with two team mates of 5* and below. In a lot of his content, he is fighting one high level player and two lower level ones(per team).At this point I should add that the game is not as one sided as you think. When I play solo I don't just mop the lobby with 4 and 5 stars. It only takes one or two accurate shots to end my game, and people at this rank are usually lacking in game knowledge but have good mechanics from other shooters. They hit their shots often. If a team finds out you are solo, they are quick to push you aggressively and pressure you heavily 95% of the time. The issue isn't that streamers don't want to fight good players. When I play trios with other high elo players, it is impossible for a solo player to appear in our lobby. Streamers literally can't get in to our games unless they also queue as a trio, which I think translates worse to content. The most common trio I fight is Delaney/rachta/fronkie, so if you want to watch them play tough games, watch them play trios. Also fuck Rexxor for promoting a shitty bow/maynard silenced play style. This guy is a rat and his elo is too low to be in my games unless he queues with a higher elo player. Absolute trash. Same for psychoghost. The 'sneaky stealth' solo content is popular on YouTube but psychoghost is one of the only people I've never met because he plays at absolute trash elo. Rachta, hornet, whitttyyy, panzerPC and Archie are all pretty good.
>>2953631>Streamers literally can't get in to our games unless they also queue as a trio, which I think translates worse to content.There was a short period where they got rid of the MMR handicap for solos after reddit whined about being dabbed on too much. All the solo streamers played exclusively with teams because when they played solo they'd eat shit for 3 hours in 6star lobbies for a single youtube worthy match where they deranked enough to solokill everyone.
>>2953649>they'd eat shit for 3 hoursweird because solos don't need to spend 3 hours to derank, the ranking system is biased for them so they always derank fast from getting killed by players of the lower rank, and they always face players of the lower rank
>>2953631>Same for psychoghostdude runs with explosive crossbows and meme noisy loadouts 90% of the time, him and neenoh are the only good hunt creators out there and actually focus on having fun instead of being sweatlords
khalamitybros ww@
>>2948307by reading this thread you should just play solo against trios because it's just so easy and the game will put you against total noobs all the time, you'll steamroll everyone and have lots of fun, trust me, definitely no disadvantage in being alone against trios
>>2954808Least disingenuous nigger itt.
>>2954808watch how this anon will proceed to never post his rankyou can dogwalk 3 stars as a solo any day of the week, if youre willing to play like a bitch you can just play with 1 hand with silencer+subsonic
>>2954896NTA but that's exactly how you lose fights. I'm a 3/4 star solo bomblance main with shit aim and the easier fights are against scaredy cats that crouchwalk everywhere. This game heavily rewards people that know the maps, that run around, rotate and hit from unexpected places, not bushwookies that hit you with the occasional 25 dmg with their subsonic ammo (when they manage to hit, and subsonic are good only against sitting ducks). A well organized trio that pushes, rotates and cover eachother is much more dangerous than the occasional solo maynard sniper that in the end, is just waiting for everyone to be gone, grab the bounty and escape like a rat without ever shooting once.
>mfw a 3 star starts talking about literally anything while posing as some sort of authority
People that complain about solos iit have never played solo, the matchmaking in this game sucks, you will sometimes be matched against total noobs and other times against discord trios with thousands of hours each. If it were so easy everyone would play solo.
>>2955528you're right crytek should only listen to the top elo sweatlords and the other opinions are worthless, that never ended badly for other games.
>>2955542crytek doesn't read these threads (thank god)
Hold on a sec, aren't 3 stars the rank you get for completing the tutorial? Why is a tutorialnigger typing shit?
>>29555533 stars is the average rank, if you keep a 1 k/d you should remain around 3 stars
>>2955542developers listening to barely sentient cripples like you is how you get games like wolverine
>>2955528>someone that plays the game talks about the game they play
>>2955567>>2954823
>>2955560Show us your rank and stats anon, also your average loadout.
>>29555772 star 0.5kda bomblance concertina poison trap
>>2955560developers listening to basement sweatlords is how you get games like marathon
>>2955587focus, anon, you CAN leave the tutorial rank if you try hard enough!
>>2955582>concertina poison trapdoes anyone even get killed by that anymore? actually good thing that came from the 4 shot boons
>>2955587kek
>>2955596They do in 3 stars because tutorial niggers don't even know traps are a thing. Yet their feedback is important or some shit. It's not like rank is one of the most direct measurements of commitment or anything.
>>2955587Hope that shitfuck game showed enough executives that still chasing e-sports and hyper competitive players in 2026 will result in failure, so we can finally move on and get decent multiplayer games
>>2955609dude I'm 3 stars and I want to play in your lobbies, nobody ever dies from traps anymore
>>2955626>chasing e-sports and hyper competitive players in 2026Marathon is just Halo with extraction, how is that supposed to be super sweaty?
>>2955632Maybe you just failed to place the trap, is your keyboard and mouse plugged in? I'm sure many of your fellow 3 stars end up failing at least one of these two steps.>>2955640I didn't understand his comment either but I didn't play Marathon. Maybe it just means it doesn't have scent trails to the objective.
>>2955626play wardogs if you want a good multiplayer with automtic weapons>>2955640I fucking wish is was anything like Halo. Sony hired the game director of valorant with the precise request to get a new E-sports game, it's a trio only super twitchy, small map, short timer "extraction shooter" that plays more like a crappy battle royale with annoying PvE and right now it's enjoyed only by the few sweatlords that remained until it's finally put out of its misery.
I prefer when the threads are dead. Why are you even replying to bait in a fucking /vm/ thread
>>2955671their iq is also 3 stars
>>29556953 or 6 is not much different if you ruin the threads. Comfy beetle
>>2955723Jesus I never realized how fucking big the beetles are, they'd be fucking terrifying irl.
>>2950797it really isn't? That hat was still quite common in the 1800 and the white hair seem to be related with lynch
>>2955534>If it were so easy everyone would play soloNo because it's not funIf facing solos was so fun solos would play soul survivor
>>2956135I play solos against duos, which matchmakers me mostly against other solos, because I like playing bounty hunt solo against other solos, it's honestly easier than trios no matter what you say, one headshot and the fight Is over, especially now that necro is one use only.
It's kinda odd how often I hear women in this game.
>>2956503After thinking about it it makes kinda sense, its one of the few sweaty games where a woman can talk without getting dogpiled by 10+ guys at once. Plus it doesn't have a military theme which I think is always off putting to foids
gyaaatDAYUM
Any EUs wanna play? My usual friend is up for games like once a week and I don't like solo gameplay. I'm 3 stars, not very good at the game.
I'm losing my fucking mind over this dogshit quickswap.When using the kunais, sometimes you don't really track whether you have all eight available and if you're killing something tanky like a brute and you accidentally left click once more after running out of them the game will SWAP TO YOUR MAIN WEAPON AND IMMEDIATELY SHOOT. It won't just swap without any inputs but it'll BUFFER the mouse click and FUCKING SHOOT THE FUCKING GUN and you can't do anything about it.There is no way I'm the only guy with this problem.
>>2963320>There is no way I'm the only guy with this problem.No, that's just how the game works for some reason. If there's an option for it, it certainly didn't exist since I last went into them years ago.
gay for pay: the gamethe more you think about it the more it makes sense
https://youtu.be/Zq8MCxeh2Qg?t=550Tell me in what universe this is reaction and not wallhacks (you need to watch at 0.25 speed because it is the latter)>>2963320Yes, I experience this problem daily, and I'm using old controls where you need to hold right click to fire.
>>2962623ok..
>>2965689>>2962623classic eusissy bottom behavior whats your bmi
>>2965740It's bigger than yours, buddy
>>2965765
rachta has like 50000 hours in the game and still dies like a bitch to the new boss
>>2966804How tho u can just run away
>>2970381hes not playing like a bitch just dying like one
when is the rest of the stuff that has been leaked coming out? I honestly though the boss would have been added after the new derringer
>>2977469wheres the leaks
>>2977550can't find it anymore, reddit mods nuked it, but they leaked the boss and other stuff they haven't added yet like the new "tool" (lancaster pistol)
Why is hunt not more popular?
>>2980854>game averaged 4k people a few years ago>quintuples its playerbase>why isn't it more popularMaybe having 3 years of horrendous balance didn't help.
>>2981726>game averaged 4k people a few years agoWhat?
>>29817462020 was a few years ago, chud.
>>2981756unc....
>>2981746Turns out 1896 did fuck all for the popularity? What a waste of dev time.
>>2980854Remaster runs like shit, looks like shit and UI is unusable shitIt would be more popular if none of this shit have happened.I guess remastered maps and far/dlss support are nice, but they didn't need to slap ugly Instagram filters on it.Balance is shit but it's not like it was ever good.
>>2981829Wdym did fuck all?Before 1896 the game was growing, 1896 killed it
If your character is below level 50, the XP gets divided 50/50 between him and your account.If you reach lv 50 with it, all the XP goes to the account.But what if your account is level 100? All the XP goes to the character?
>>2985791Unless things changed it's still split, you just get a pitiful amount of hunt dollars for what would otherwise be an account level.
>>2986642The leveling system in this game sucks in every single facet, it's genuinely impressive.
https://youtu.be/36c6euknErY?t=514Who pushes like that with a medkit out? Obvious cheating.
When did they patch the game to reduce movement speed when running down stairs, and what was their reasoning for doing so?
Brain burst really needs a buff and I don't think new +20% blitz damage node will be enough.
>>2987646Have you seen this guy on stream? He doesn't give a fuck anymore and plays solely on instinct.
From 0 to 50, I heckin love double XP
Remove stamina shot from the game.Remove spear from the game.Nuke Russia.Nuke China.Nuke USA.
>>2988587No, youtube recommend his videos to me and I watch fragments until I get pissed off at obvious cheating moment
>>2990432Then watch his stream, he's not cheating, you'd probably do similar things if you had 15k hours in a single game and hated it.
>>2990556I used to watch his stream sometimes until I got disilusioned when he started playing duos and got confused by his teammate's outline and started shooting at it through a wall
>>2990629And what is that supposed to mean? He been streaming the game every day for several hours for years, if he's cheating he'd be using either a radar on another screen or an aimbot with a really low FOV since pretty much all his movements look legit. And even then nothing would really be different in the video you sent, anyone would be able to hit those shots with a burgess at that distance and he pretty much already knew their position from the sound alone."Getting confused by his teammates outline" makes it sound like you're implying he's a chams user, which doesn't make any sense, even if it doesn't show in the OBS they'd look nothing like the teammate outline. Since they're usually just a skeleton or a box.
>>2990754>he pretty much already knew their position from the sound alone.There is a difference between knowing position and perfectly tracking movementMy first example was showing inhuman reaction which is only possible with wallhacks. It's not enough to expect someone to come from a door to shoot it with 0 frame delay. You need to see them move behind a wall to perfectly time a shot. Not one person in the world can do that without cheats, and he does it consistently, spending no time on reaction.Second example was his decision making which is based on information he shouldn't have. He knows a vague location of an enemy, he makes a loud sound. It's reasonable to expect that enemy would get in a position to shoot at him while he's vulnerable, he looks in the direction of an enemy through the wall and instead of healing in safety, he decides to walk up to that enemy while holding a medkit. Did not even use dark sight, did not even pull out his gun, because he knows he's not in danger.>even if it doesn't show in the OBS they'd look nothing like the teammate outlineDo you seriously think only one cheat exists for hunt?>Since they're usually just a skeleton or a box.Idk maybe it would be convenient for someone who does a lot of lucky wallbang headshots to have outlines?I don't think he has aimbot, I base my suspicion on hard factors like nonexistent reaction time. He has skill and good map knowledge, but still chose to cheat to farm content. And of course cheats help him utilize map knowledge much better.
>>2990976>tracking movement tracking movement tracking movementAll hunters have the same movespeed, it's not hard to track people to wallbang, I find it odd for you to evenb ring that up. How many hours in the game do you have? Have you ever watched any other streamer? Are you even 6*s?It's not like he's perfectly tracking and wallbanging people every single time either, and other streamers like Neenoh do the same, Khalamity has some bizarre outplays sometimes. They also miss just as often as they hit, they try it several hours every day and it doesn't take a genius to understand they'd only upload the ones that hit. Have you never wallbanged anyone? How many more do you think you'd wallbang if you played this game as a job?>retarded question because you ran out of argumentsNo, I don't, I didn't imply that either. It's just that skeletons/boxes have been the default on every online game for about 15 years. This also doesn't make sense if you believe he's not aimbotting, because it really, really, wouldn't make any difference for him to track the center-top of a box vs chams. If you just want to wallhack it matters fuck all if it's a perfect silhouette or not.>reaction timeHave you ever played any FPS competitively at any high-ish rank? People just pre-fire literally every single place common place but I think I'm a bit confused now, where exactly do you think he's "blatantly cheating" with his insane zero reaction wallhackz in the video?You linked 8:34, at 8:38 he hears someone healing right after he's done and that primes him to assume there's someone very near him, he switches to the shotgun, peeks assuming he's probably on the stairs, notices someone is on his right, MISSES the shot after failing to correct the aim and the rest even you could do. There were no bombs, no tricks, nigga literally just walked into him while aiming down.Could I do it? Probably not. Could a guy who's really good with 15k hours who does this for a living do it? I'm pretty sure.
>>2991070>nuh-uh nuh-uh nuh-uhYou sound retardedI have seen enough cheating analyzing videos on r6 siege to distinguish reaction from cheating. And hunt audio is not that good to "prefire" someone who's moving horizontally across your screen, this is complete fucking bullshit and not what people mean in videogames when they say prefire. Not to mention this is a fucking hunt and you use fucking pump action weapons and not machineguns.He could achieve this with a triggerbot but I don't think it is what he is doing and it would fuck him over at long distance fights. Nothing I said or rachta does could be explained by aimbot, I am not sure why do you even bring that up, you might be retarded.>with his insane zero reaction wallhackz You seem very invested into defending your cheating eceleb>You linked 8:34, at 8:38 he hears someone I'm literally talking about a different video when I say he displays inhuman reaction >>2964955That other video is an example of him ignoring obvious danger based on information he got from cheating.
>I have seen enough cheating analyzing videos fucking kek
>>2992925So your argument is "you feel like it"got it
>>2993065And yours is "slav retard whos been streaming where everyone can see for thousands of hours for over half a decade is somehow a master cheater whose most suspicious play was using his fucking ears and shooting a nigga point blank with a shotgun". The other video doesn't prove anything either, wasn't a wallbang, he missed two shots (second which he tried to prefire, which had he hit youd be crying about WALLHACKZZ over it too) and heard the guy coming, I just can't believe you'd find that kill suspicious. Are you playing with a controller with a cinematic 24fps?I won't engage with a retarded nigger who's probably just jealous that someone got good after wasting a good portion of his life playing hunt showdown of all things. Maybe you're one of those retarded people who's never achieved anything beyond mediocrity and now tries to pin down anyone better than you as a cheater to feel better.Also quite rich for you to claim my arguments are about feelings when yours are based of fucking rainbow six siege cheat analyzing youtube videos lmao.Keep crying yourself to sleep while remembering how other people are better than you or whatever, freak, deep down you know you're wrong. Stop watching siege videos and start playing some matches would ya?
>>2993116>incomprehensible babblingI accept your concessionCan't be bothered to read that schizo yapping when nothing you wrote in first two sentences is even true
>>2993153LMAO
>>2980854it's an incredibly niche game, with all the other extraction shooters dying, I'm surprised hunt is this popular actually
We're getting a fuckin snow map condition finally
Everything that has been leaked so far:>Lancaster pistol, 1 slot, medium ammo, 110 damage, 250 m/s, 0.6 cycle time with poison and high velocity, 4 shots then long reload.>Long derringer, 1 shot, tool slot, 117 damage, 250 m/sProbably coming next event in December:>New snow map (Alaska?), not sure>Snow map weather condition >Moving trains
Should you start out with random teams or solo as a beginner?
>>3001234Solo is infinitely harder to play than with bad randoms if you have no clue what you're doing.Once you've got a decent grasp it'l reverse.
>>3001234play with randoms as long as you talk to each other you'll be fine
>>3002570I always found the idea of being a rat sniper cool, I know it's annoying but do you guys have tips on how to do it?
>>3003092Get the suppressed maynard sniper, equip half subsonic half high velocity and creep around the outer edges of compounds picking off the teams as they fight each other, if only the bounty team is left you want to be sitting between them and their extract path so you can more easily shoot them as they run at you since muzzle velocity in this game is...something; hitting people moving laterally requires a lot of practice until you "get" muzzle speeds.Depending on the map/compound there's usually bushes you can hide in to piss people off further.The counter to this is for teams to simply walk away, but they rarely do and will leave explicit comments on your profile.
Spectating other players after you die is torture, holy fucking shit there are so many people playing this like it's tarkov, walking and crouching everywhere, hiding every time they make some noise, looking at every corner even if the closest player to them is two compounds away, no wonder half the lobby still hasn't showed up after the boss has been banished. How do you even fix people that play like that.
>>3008664Why are you policing how other people play?
>>3009601You're right, the developers should be.Hunt's playerbase is one of the worst I've encountered in gaming, but it's fundamentally a design issue from the developers.Splitting the lobbies with double bounty, consistently updating the game to reward passivity and punish aggression, and including gear for which the entire purpose is ratting will only cause your games playerbase to devolve.
>>3009658If the only way to play this game was rushing the boutns and having one big fight over it, then you might as well make Bounty Clash the only mode. Allowing for a diversity of playstyles is the point, even if you may not like them.
>>3009658Have you considered that Hunt is maybe just not the game for you?
>>3009667>Allowing for a diversity of playstyles is the point, even if you may not like them.There is no diversity of playstyles though and it becomes increasingly apparent as you climb in MMR because there's so few tools to modify player behaviors.Camping is the norm for the game, they've spent half a decade attempting to rectify it after the flashbomb nerf and their only solutions have been sparse compound updates to add additional means to enter the egregiously bad ones that frequently stalemate.>>3009677Have you considered that having critiques of a game you like doesn't mean you don't enjoy it?I can enjoy something despite its flaws, it doesn't mean they don't exist.
>>3009686When the part you don't enjoy is one of the core features of the game, which is play however you want towards the goal, instead of rushing into the boss pit while 360 noscoping scrubs like you probably wish, then yeah, your critique is pretty much worthless. Check the pre-release trailers and see how they play.What's next? Blame Hunt for not having cars and drifting mechanics?
>>3009697>When the part you don't enjoy is one of the core features of the game, which is play however you want towards the goalAre you retarded? What kind of argument even is this? The goal is to get to the boss lair and extract with the bounty, there's nothing stopping you from walking around shooting AI but it sure is fucking boring for everyone else when they see no combat. >What's next? Blame Hunt for not having cars and drifting mechanics?Oh, you are.Whatever, man. You're free to play however you want, but it doesn't change that the playerbase as a whole is pressured into playing certain ways because of cryteks (lack of) gameplay incentives and refinement.I'm not even the original anon complaining about crouch walking shitters, I'm a different one upset that the games meta has been 4 teams at a compound refusing to interact with each other for many years because the moment you start a fight you get encircled and die.
>>3009736trvke, they should add assault rifles and a shrinking circle, maybe we should get dropped into the game from a flying bus and shit. that way we'll all fight for the epic battle royale token
>>3009753Not an argument.Take that shit to /v/ if you just want to spergpost.
>>3009601It just stops being funny seeing people play this badly after a while
These two dots are the amount of leading you need to have to hit a headshot at ~60 vs ~155 meters with a Sparks Sniper which has a drop range of 145m and muzzle velocity of 533(!) and I don't understand it at all. Why is there almost no difference? Why do I have to lead so much at a 60m range? Am I doing something wrong?
>>3014284Both overlaid screenshots are 1 frame before the shooting animation.
>>3014284>Why do I have to lead so much at a 60m range?Artificial "skill" mechanic.Hunters move so slow they had to reduce the velocity of guns to ridiculously low values or else everyone would die approaching compounds.
>>3014921What I don't understand is why the horizontal leading AMOUNT is virtually the same despite being ~2.5x further away. The only thing I could come up with was the enemy running considerably further before the bullet lands. But I counted the frames from the shot until it hits, it's 6 for close and 15 for far away (at least on my recording)I don't think the hunter further away would've traveled enough in 9 frames to make a difference.
>finally encountered an actual cheater 1500 hours in neat
Come join our /v/ server to play discord gg hDmH46tFWK
>d*scordyuckaroonies!
>>3014284At 60 meters you lead for approximately 2.5 heads At 155 meters you lead for approximately 6.5 headsI don't see a problem here?
>>3033426I know I'm missing something, which is why I posted. Is the horizontal alignment between the two just a coincidence?
>>3033928I don't know, I never thought about it. But you measure lead in length near the target, not at your scope
>>3034666Impressive

what the FUCK
>start playing again >they added a silenced sniperis it good?
>>3041363Yeah, if you can't get about half a server with it you should just uninstall.
>>3040223>TFW wallbanged by Shrek
>>3041363Yeah. For some reason they gave it really tight hipfire so it's not even a liability close range.
God solo vs trios is so much fun>can easily 3rd party fights>most of the time they don't know you're solo and play very scared or instantly try to revive someone after killing you instead of checking for necro>target rich environments >don't have to follow or listen to retarded teammates I'm soloing from now on
>>3043747I use blank fire decoys and it's so funny making trios scared thinking they're surrounded when It's just me with a pea shooter
>>3059163I would do this to try and lure idiots into bear traps before they got nerfed
I'm still scared of bosses.
And I'm out, adios
Got tired of getting killed in pitch black situations, guess I'll just use reshade too.
How do I get better? Just started this week on PS5, have 20 hrs in now. I play trios with randoms, so far I’ve made 34 kills and died 18 times. Ive got 27k and I bought the battle pass for 1000 from saving up, I’m running free classes that I add traits to and pick up traits so I can continue saving and stop being so scared to lose a hunter. Right now I have the 1865 carbine with extra bullets in my fingers and a chain pistol with fanning, fmj loaded in both, brass knuckles, med kit, recovery shot, fire bombs, dynamite stick. I’m using 1 big health bar with 4 small health bars on my hunter. Can I get some tips?
>PS5
Why the fuck is the crossbow still 4 slots?
>>3009677Have you considered that the game I bought had no 1 shot headshots from any distance, had strong damage falloff, no regeneration, no self revive, no shadow, no catalyst, no silent oneshot weapons?
>>3078671Don't use free hunters, you can strip them for gear if you are poor (which is when you have less than 2k, not 27k lmao wtf are you doing).Buy legendary hunters and equip perks.Read answers to this post >>2948307
Not even 9k on a sunday, things are looking grim.Guess the biggest event yet flopped hard.
I’m 3mmr, almost 4mmr. Have played for 22hrs now on PS5, the player count is very low. They are putting me in lobbies with 5 and 6mmr now, no noise until the end of match then I get shot in the head by someone in a bush or someone camping the corner of a high up window. I was having a blast until they started doing this to me, I think those streamers running around like rambo might be abusing the mmr system and ping because it’s just people hiding in 5 to 6mmr servers that I get and no way you could run around like that without someone sitting quiet in a bush not blowing your head off.
>>3086496>I’m 3mmr, almost 4mmr.>They are putting me in lobbies with 5 and 6mmr nowThis is how it has always been, though 6 stars you should only encounter solos or with 2 star teammateIt doesn't really matter because ranking system is broken and solos consistently derank even when they win games if they play solo. They always play with people who rank below them, they lose a lot of MMR when they get killed by low ranking players, they gain little MMR for killing low ranking players. System is tweaked to benefit solos. When you see 4-5 star solos essentially it's a 6 star smurf anyway.
If you want to play this game fast and you want to punish campers learn how to play with decoys and surefoot and push super aggressively.
>in the opposite reality campers don't know your location and you do
>got into the hunger betaI'll let you fellers know how the stinky french game is
>>3093399Everyone got in retardo.>how it isFucking shit, it's like Tarkov but worse in every single way.
>>3093570>>3093399Everything is slow as shit, guns suck, you need to HOLD F for like 2 seconds to open a door, grunts take 3 business days to die, takes 5 minutes to loot anything because you need to wait for it to "identify" the loot first.This shit will last a month before dropping to 1k players.
>>3093570>>3093584That's disappointing I'll still play it cuz it's free but goddamn
Fastest way to close 170 rifts?
>>3095958Run directly from rift to rift, only picking up gear that you find directly between rifts. Coincidentally, this is a good strategy for winning soul survivor anyway.
>>3093584That game has so many stupid decisions, it's clearly being made by a bunch of creatives with no supervision. The movement is slow and clunky. It's not clear if PvE enemies are supposed to be noise traps, actual enemies to loot or just a massive waste of time. 90% of the loot if garbage for crafting stuff you can't learn and just opening a container for searching them takes minutes (and half the quests are fetch quests with random spawning loot). The RPG elements never pair well with extraction shooters (just look at marathon), you have to grind 20 levels just to have a non retarded character, then the rest you should grind to make a build, which is useless because you lose your gear after dying, also it makes gear and level disparity even worse, you literally can't beat someone that runs faster, has more stamina, hears footsteps better and reloads faster than you, pair to that the massive gear disparity, no OHK headshots, advanced players with repeating rifles and armors that can repair before you've even reloaded your musket. Add gear not being visible on the characters because the devs are hellbent on having hero skins, (meaning a lvl 70 with purple armor can go around with the basic skin, baiting shots that bounce off of them), and you just have constant frustrating experience, that will only get worse as time goes on. Back to hunt I guess, shame because I was hyped, but it's just a bad tarkov clone without the actual stuff that makes tarkov interesting.
>>3095958Easiest way to kill bosses and level up hunters? :(
>>3098687How often do they run double XP weekends? I'm a solo player (the faggot who invited me to play this game doesn't even play anymore) and it's really hard for me to extract with any meaningful amount of XP, it's way too hard to banish, wait and then clear out all the other teams as a solo.
>>3098668If anything hunger is making me appreciate hunt even more
>>3099072It's just clear Hunt was made with a specific, simple idea in mind, even if they had to try a bit to find it. A semi-competitive, extraction shooter/battle royale hybrid that heavily uses the audio technology, they built everything on top of that and it shows, the realization is a simple enough gameplay loop to understand, but hardcore and complex enough to remain interesting after thousands of hours, and they monetized it with player and weapon skins because it works without going against the core of the game. Hunger on the other hand clearly doesn't understand what it wants to be, why did they need it to be a hero shooter if it's a RPG? Isn't the point of RPGs to build your own character? Why did they monetize it though hero skins instead of single equipment ones, when a core principle of extraction shooters with armor and gear is to be immediately able to identify it at a glance? (Same mistake marathon did btw), why are they going to add PvE only boss rooms (again, similar to marathon), just to what, get OP weapons to use in the rest of the game? They're also going to add MMO mechanics and clans, stuff that goes in direct competition with extraction shooters imo, it's just going to have big clans filled with people treating it like a second job and infinite resources, since it's not going to have wipes. It's such a mess of a game. Honestly game devs need to realize Tarkov was a lighting in a bottle and it's played mainly by gun nuts that like customization and mil-sim, and should instead try to copy the simpler and more stable loop of Hunt.
>>3099171Merging rpg mmo and loot based extraction shooter is dumb from the beginning. What makes extraction shooters exciting to play is the risk of losing all of your loot before extracting, what's the point when you have a clan chest full of stuff and character abilities and levels you never lose. all you risk is losing quest items but that just makes the game more grindy, not more tense and fun
>>3098687bomblance.
>>3098767Take serpentSteal bounty???Profit
>>3099171Their "vision" changed multiple times since beta and it's clear that they throw shit at a wall and see what sticks (which creeps me out because this fandom is fucking disgusting and shit changes make the game more popular somehow)
The tension in Hunger is way more better than Hunt. You also don't have to deal with bowfags and solo is actually solo vs solo.
>>3102552Dude solo hunger has 1 PvP fight every 3 games and are won by whoever has the best gear, it's boring as hell, no tension at all, you take 3 business days to traverse the map and by the time you reach some gunshots everyone is gone
>>3103317Most people I've run into didn't wanna fight because they have quest items Had a guy literally say as much yesterday
>>3103800Noice
>>3103643watch them cry and ask for pve servers a week into release
>>3103643No wonder, everything being so super slow makes people antsy to lose their stuff, ebcause even running to the location and picking up a quest item is 15 minutes of your time down the drain.On top of that losing gear hurts more than even in Tarkov, because the traders don't sell jack shit and theres no scav or free kit that would allow you to bounce back. You either loot more gear than you lose or your account eventually becomes unplayble. So everyone is just ratting
>>3103960the game will have pve dungeons at release and a 15v15 castle siege battlegrounds
>>3103960Arc raiders did irreparabile damage to the genre>>3104485Game is trying to be too many things at once already with what is going to be probably a very niche playerbase, it will end up like marathon
Not having a visual indicator for armour in Hunger is a wild decison kek, imagine looking at a player with the base skin looking like a shirtless hobo, then you shoot at him in the head and realize he has purple gigafuck armour and you barely scratched him, then he turn and melts you with his repeating shiftuck 1000 (also wild that it has more semi auto weapons than Hunt) just because the devs want to sell fullbody skins for the heroes. Couldn't they have made specific skins for every equipment slot like Rust or something? are they that dumb?
With all those things in mind, why are Hunt streamers flocking to Hunger? It's not viewership since all of them have considerably less viewers when streaming it. Were they all paid by Hunger to play it for a while?
>>3105046Hunger devs have been sponsoring Hunt streamers specifically since the first teasers came out, and now are doing a big wave because of the beta, probably because they look similar on the surface. I doubt tarkov players are interested in fantasy 1800 guns while Hunt's are maybe a bit accustomed to them already, too bad Hunger is nothing like Hunt and just by looking at the comments under Rachta's video you realize the playerbase doesn't really overlap.
>>3105046they're obviously targeting Hunt streamers the most and they even hired Bence for that purpose, but there's also a few other extraction shooter content creators in the program, ironically it's the same that praised marathon before it came out
>>3105218>I doubt tarkov players are interested in fantasy 1800 gunsI specifically checked it out because Hunt is missing the RPG and loot components that keep me addicted to Tarkov, but I really like the old timey guns. Unfortunately its not a good shooter.I've got a thing for guns form the time when people were still figuring out how to make guns more shooty instead of modern plastic slop, and the only game featuring such guns happens to be hunt.
>>3104873they said they wanted to be a MMO like WoW but with everything having risk to it.
>>3105772>ermm i actually have more fun with 2 minute long reloads it adds to the atmosphere!
Hunt is bleeding players and Hunger is gonna take a lot of them away. All of the Hunt streamers love Hunger.The krauts should've added more deeper gameplay instead of battlepass slop.
>>3105855As I said>unfortunately its not a good shooterI'd go for Tarkov with muskets and revolvers, but sadly Hunger isn't that. >>3105861>All of the Hunt streamers love Hunger.Because they get paid to. Again as a shooter it fails. I'm playing the playtest right now and if you like Hunt you will likely not enjoy Hunger. Its an MMORPG with a shooter skin, not even a shootre first MMO second game like Tarkov but a full blown MMORPG.
I'll never forgive israel.
>>3105004There's a legendary helmet that reduces 100% of headshot damage and it doesn't show on the character, also take a look at the masteries, especially the later ones, you can level your character to literally tank fatal damage, all headshot damage, hoard absurd amount of money, have basically infinite stamina, automatically heal, repair and reload. Not even a month after release no-lifers will stomp new players, also no wipes and prestiging doesn't even reset your stash. The devs have to be completely insane to make something like this and think it's good in any way.
>>3107238the idea would be fine if it was a single player survival game like stalker, but the moment you add pvp to a game you can't treat it like a side thing and not balance the rest around it. Besides, the game runs terrible with constant frame drops and shader stutters while also looking terrible, they need to fix so many things and the game was supposed to release like last year.
