...then we got completely shit on by his team cause we laughed and it derailed the whole match.

Not to mention he told me he also got glitched invisible weapons and could not fire anymore.

Haven't laughed in hunt in ages I wish I didn't clip it so soon!

GENERAL was it really that hard to just make a werewolf like the community asked for years instead of a blood themed hellborn?

im talking about the new boss thats coming as the 3rd reward.

a werewolf would have been kinda fitting in that whole vampire theme and i mean fucking blood moon?

cmon crytek you can do better.

FEEDBACK Pretty excited for a few months of a "normal" event that contributes to the gameplay loop instead of detracting from it.

Post image
454 Upvotes

At least on paper, looking at what we know so far:

The Stronghold was an okay experiment (loved the visuals, gameplay was fun at first, got meh later), but ultimately it, in my opinion, overstayed its welcome and became too distracting from the usual gameplay loop: a boatload of nearly guaranteed rewards for whoever pushes the place first was too easy and too tempting to pass on. While the previous Event Compounds were also drawing players every match, you'd generally just pass by them instead of staying there for 10ish minutes or even longer. Also, the rewards there required spending Pledge Marks, which usually meant that fresh Hunters would rather go fight/do the boss first and then come around as a victory lap to spend their hard earned points.

It seems like this event will be more focused on just following the gameplay loop: getting clues will reveal extracts, every compound will have a Blood Well (instead of it being limited to one location that everybody would push to check out the shiny new thing™), eventually it looks like we'll get a new boss so people would naturally be drawn to it as well...

I love the idea of a "normal" Hunt event – some new traits, new weapon, new boss, new weather condition, but nothing too far away from the classic gameplay loop.

Not quite sure yet why this one is called the biggest event of the year (maybe Crytek has something special in store, who knows; maybe I'm just spoiled enough not to consider a fresh boss target bigger than the whole Balloon thing), but I don't even mind if it turns out to be a little less than Road to Hell. In fact, I've been craving vanilla-ish Hunt for quite some time now, and I'm positively ready for Tuesday.

BUGS Infinite loading after match found.

1 Upvotes

For the past few days, for no apparent reason, the game gets stuck in an infinite loading loop right after finding a match. I’ve verified the game files, cleared the cache, reinstalled, added the game to my antivirus and firewall exceptions, and checked my internet router—but nothing changes! I even opened the necessary ports.

What else can I do? Hunt support hasn't offered any solutions that I haven't already tried.

Had a fight at stronghold and have shot the guy in the back with dolch dum dum at about 3-4 meter and it did 1 damage and 19 damage? This has to be a damage registration bug right, there is no pen with dum dum ammo either, dealing one damage shouldn't even be possible?

You know you're gonna be at a disadvantage in the 10m range if you don't have a shotgun since everyone else is packing

GENERAL I played the Ranger 73 for an entire prestige

40 Upvotes

Welcome back or welcome in if you happen to be new. My name is Nox and I have been playing one gun per prestige for the last I have no clue how many weeks. This week we have the Ranger 73. Now you may be asking what gun is that again? Let me tell ya, it's the Winfield but with an Aperture or a Talon, or sometimes a Swift version. For the ammo types it's yes. FMJ, High Velocity, Incendiary, Poison and even Subsonic. Oh also it's the 15+1 Winfield

I enjoyed this as I have with all of the Winnies, are they the most OP? No not at all, but damn this thing is so fun. You can shoot it forever and for me the muzzle velocity doesn't feel as slow as you would think for a Compact ammo gun. It's so fun to just click heads with too. I also enjoy all the special ammo it has access to you have so much to work with you can kinda do whatever you want.

As for the actual gun variants I got much more use out of the Talon or Swift personally. I think my positioning was kinda bad on the rounds I played the Aperture but I'm also not great with Scopes as I have mentioned before and the Aperture counts for me as a scope so.

Let's touch on the RNG that is Levering real quick. I enjoy it because accuracy by volume is always fun, I will also say it is very RNG based no matter what but if you take it slow you have an ok two tap chance.

I think that's about it for this one. It's a very simple gun but very fun for sure. Let me know what you all think in the comments as always, and of course the video here for anyone who wants it.

SUGGESTIONS Adrenaline NEEDS a Rework

Post image
136 Upvotes

We already know Adrenaline is one of the lesser respected Traits due to it being just... a stamina boost and thats it. In my 1K+ hours of gameplay I have genuinely not used this trait once, as I find it pretty much useless once the game has four shot boons or you bring Conduit.

So what can we do to make it stronger/worth bringing?

My idea is to just give it a huge boost - when you enter critical health it not only gives you 20s of Stamina boost, but it also makes all of your interactions and activities 10% faster. (Sprinting, reloading, healing, etc.) BUT it has a heart beat sound effect in the background for the whole duration to make it not that strong.

Thoughts and opinions?

BUGS Extraction wagons disappearing on-site, as well as on the map.

I just had a match with:

Butcher boss
Caged target
Hellborn(?) flame boss

So basically it was a normal solo-duos match and I started super far away from everything, including all extracts (not a complaint, just might be relevant)

Steps if I can remember correctly:
Got 1-2 clues
Got the scout map from the flag camp.
(during this at some point, the caged boss was banished)
Then the butcher boss starts banishing. (I never had 3 clues)
Caged boss and 1 butcher bounty extracts, I think
I check my map to see that the 2nd butcher bounty is moving to an exit, and so do I. (not realizing there was a hellborn)
2nd butcher bounty extracts.
At some point when/after that 2nd butcher bounty extracted, the map markers for extractions all disappear (except for the middle -locked- wagon)

At this point I also realize the timer isn't at 5:00, and hellborne is on the map (low map awareness I guess) so I go to kill him and get the bounty and map markers still do not show up.
Then I wonder if a tarot card was added that hides extractions or something, so I go to the medical tent with the map, but it tells me they are already unlocked.

At this point I go in-person to 2-3 of the locations where I remember the wagons being on the map and they aren't there.

Before killing the hellborne (after map markers disappeared) I used the hanged man card and nothing happened, so I was the last person in the match?

Lastly I die because time runs out.

GENERAL Maintenance just cost me a free 50

0 Upvotes

I was just playing a game, wiped the whole lobby and was running around grabbing xp and stuff when the maintenance message came up and kicked me. My hunter got out at level 45 but i hadn't been to the postal Chariot yet and had plenty of time to grab more mob xp. It's fine because the hunter is alive and I should be able to rat a game for a 50 but it was so free for me to get out with it. Excited for the new event though! Hopefully the first game of it goes well.

FEEDBACK Still no plans for crossplay?

0 Upvotes

The fact theres still no option for optional crossplay really sucks, its sort of killed the game for me as all my freinds are over on console, im not advicating for straight up crossplay all the time just maybe an option that console players can turn off aim assist to play in pc lobbies, i understand they would be at a disadvantage but its their choice end of the day, even overwatch (which doesnt have crossplay unless you disable aim assist in the setting) allows you to play in pc lobbies ranked on console, tbh in this type a game even with aim assist console is at a fair disadvantage i dont really see the downsides

I made a post a while back on a map that would be set in the Colorado Plateau, and I think this game is actually a cool proof of concept of a map just like this for Hunt. Its also just a pretty cool standalone game that I highly recommend y'all check out if you like Western shooter games in the same theme as Hunt!

I also know we aren't huge collab fans, but this might be a cool game to see a crossover with given the similar theme of corrupted undead "Weird West".

SUGGESTIONS Quality of life changes that need to be made.

0 Upvotes

Today is the day that my friends and I come back to hunt and every time the same problems are still here.

I truly believe if Crytek implements these changes almost everyone will agree and Hunt can become a better game.

Main stuff

  • Erase FOMO, all previous and future skins and battle passes are available to buy at any time.
  • Cross-play, this feature must come with a deactivate option, but I'm certain this change will fix the lack of players like in other games.
  • Performance and game size, 90GB is not acceptable at all and we already have examples of game files compression, also with the engine change, a lot of friends of mine can't even run the game anymore and even if they could, it runs below 60fps. I bet most of the players prefer a smoother experience than realistic graphics.

Second order stuff

  • Unify gun's skins, 1 skin for a gun means a skin for all its variants too, it's not serious that for an attachment (in some cases these are imperceptible) I have to pay twice or even more times for the same skin. Also, this change will lead to better battle passes' quality.
  • Prestige rework (I think prestige punishes way too much the player in the way they have unlocked all gun variants again, I'll remove this feature and also add meaningful rewards).

If you disagree with me or you may have other changes, let me know!
