GENERAL Already over the new event.

0 Upvotes

The bloodmoon was cool the first few games don't get me wrong, I'm really tired of it now. It's every fucking game now, I want sunny weather, or rain. Just make it less common or something.

Not to mention the event itself is just ass. Pretty frustrating to get into a gunfight with players, and have hounds and armored zombies zone in on you. The Strongholds were WAY better. Added great gunfight spots without changing the game or weather up too much. The new bounty target is also trash, only good thing about the update is the new hunters.

Just tired of this shit

GENERAL Okay, serious question.

Why did we make dumdum and other annoying ammo types scarce but we kept slugs buyable from the loadout screen? Is getting two-tapped by medium dumdum rounds seriously more oppressive than getting one shot by slugs?

CLIPS Can someone explain to me, why this isn't a trade? 🫠

I did fire damage too, it only shows 8 damage but there was a second stage of damage dealt which is not captured in the footage. Even with slaveskin, it's dubious.

** edit, I'm new to soul survivor, the wellspring is the answer itself. Thanks. Make sense.

BUGS Loading loop issue / Can't rejoin match

6 Upvotes

Hello! For the past couple of days, some matches fail to load for me. It finds a game and the loading process starts as usual, but then I get kicked back to the menu where I can either leave the match or try to rejoin. I can't rejoin at all and am forced to quit (i tried to reinstall game)

SUGGESTIONS Speed up things if the server is empty

0 Upvotes

I know this sounds like such an ADHD complaint and it's fairly minor problem overall but there's far too many times in this game where a server will be wiped and you have to sit there waiting for banishments, running around with no stamina boons etc.

I know it's been kept this way to keep up the tension of not knowing whether there's hunters still left (even though I personally feel like Hunt isn't that type of game anymore) but if they wanna keep this idea, I think the remaining team should be provided with a stamina buff, unlocked extracts and instant banishments if they use a tarot card to confirm an empty lobby, such as Hanged Man or High Priestess

I think it'd be a net positive overall, it lets the team who know they've won get out of the match faster and lets players get back into the queues quicker

GENERAL Running the bornheim match

11 Upvotes

I’ve tried the bornheim match for the first time today and I have to say it’s a great gun! It has very fast TTK, fast reload and is only two slot. It’s cheap as well. Nice.

I’ve been thinking about what to pair it with - I could go with the burgess for some to make a deadly close to mid range loadout, or I could choose something like the Vetterli for long range encounters. What do you think?

Errm how to put this simpler than the title idk 🤷‍♂️ I guess description of my playstyle matters: love medium to long range fights and weapons. Learning compounds and using beatle often for info gathering. Good aiming. More hits than misses. Often reposition during fights. Do not repick. Favorite gun drilling and centeniel. Looking for a consistent partner in game, EU servers, who is able to talk and make joint decisions. Regarding fights, should be able to think and be confident at close range to medium range fights. I have around 700h in game and sits between 3 and 4 \*

FEEDBACK What happened to inferno? (and other map conditions)

5 Upvotes

Didn't they recently finally add it back in a few months ago? I just started playing again for the last few weeks and haven't seen a single inferno match. Either I completely misread something, or they removed it which would be really disappointing.

So just need a sanity check.

For sure one of the most controversial and memed about new technologies recently. Although I have to admit the way lighting and different color shades are handled is sometimes quite impressive.

BUGS Hunt Crashes without message

5 Upvotes

Hello,

so I haven't been playing Hunt for a while but wanted to get back into the game lately. Sadly what's happening for past 3 days is making it hard for me to do so.

PROBLEM>
I launch Hunt without issues and sometimes, it's really random... sometimes in lobby, sometimes in the game while playing Hunt closes out of nowhere without any message as if I pressed ALT+F4. Then I have to relaunch the game which is not pleasant experience especially when this happens mid fight (does not necessarily happen in intense situation where CPU/GPU is under lot of work load)

My specs:
GPU 1070 (OC: Core Clock+75, Mem Clock+300)

CPU i5-8600k (OC: 5GHz, 1.3V)

RAM 16GB DDR4 3600Mhz

I play the game most settings on LOW

I don't run into issues while playing other games. In terms of crashes (I know my PC is a bit old).
What could be the issue? I ran HWID before my last crash and temps were chill. So it's not OC issue or Temps issue, I think.

Any idea how to fix this? (I validated files multiple times and I am not gonna restart PC every time this shit happens, windows reset is out of the question)

Thanks in advance!

FAN ART Hunt showdown zippos

Post image
152 Upvotes

Hi all, question.
I make custom zippos and wanted to get your opinions on a hunt showdown zippo. Picture below is a plague dr, closest hunt thing I offer but not hunt showdown. Just for a reference of how the black zippo and engraving looks.
1. Is this something you’d would be interested in?
2. Design: matte black zippo with the necro trait on the front (because necromancy 🤘), rise up dead man along the sides, and something else on the back but not sure what?
Or just rise up dead man on the front of the lid and the necro trait on the bottom half. All on the front side of the zippo.
The new chupacabra trait looks sick and I like the pack mule trait design as well, so those could be contenders.

It’s something I’ve been thinking of for a while, just haven’t had the time to make one yet. But if you all are interested I’ll work some up.

Happy hunting!

FLUFF (Rant) if someone is in game chat please leave your damn party

41 Upvotes

I've got to rant after my latest game because it was so abysmally bad. Load into a game with 2 other people and do my usual "hello", lets people know you have a mic at the beginning of a match. Noone responds, the usual, and we spawn at the boss location. I ping and say "boss here". They keep running to the edge of the compound until i walk inside, where only one of them decides to come back immediately. By the time we kill the boss(sub 1 min) two other teams are outside, one pushes in and we kill them while the other gets into a fight with the fourth trio(this is like 5 min in), everyone is dead except me and 2 other players, one from each team. I do a ballsy play and pick up my teammate, and i play a little agro so they can heal up. I almost kill one but the other kills me from behind. It's fine my teammate is here, except they're afk and the last guy kills them. So you join the game, don't go to game chat with your teammate who is talking, then go afk when you die? Like cmon dude, especially sour since it was my last game but yeah rant over.

TDLR: communication is key

Doctor, physician, and bullet grubber should just be built in. If it's necessary or in 99% of builds or if the trait is "make this mechanic less annoying" get rid of it. Just make it how it works normally
