Tinfoil Papercut posted:Loading a map is only 50% successful based on what Orv and I experienced last night. I wasn't having any issues loading in last night but I had to run solo since no one else in the Discord wanted to play. I managed to be the first person to find the Butcher three times and killed him twice but I didn't make it out with the bounty either time. First was because of a hunter and the second time was because I stepped in some fire that was still on the floor after the Butcher died. I couldn't put it out in time.

Too bad about that trap door in the roof he didn't know was there. I love that fuckin trap door and a lot of people don't seem to know about it.

Don't forget the guy at Scupper Lake. We were in a shootout with someone hiding in the attic of one of the submerged houses and while Tinfoil managed to hit him a couple of times, none of my shots were connecting even when he was standing perfectly still. We were in the open with some bushes as cover and I had to reload so I turned and ran to some hard cover. When I came back, he had crawled out of the house and was in the water where I saw him get shot in the back and downed by another player. I never saw the other player. We spent about 15 minutes slowly circling around the east and north sides of the lake until we were sure he wasn't in the woods nearby and found a spot with a good line of sight on the entire lake. Tinfoil posted up and I ran out into the water towards the building with the boss to draw him out of hiding. He, pretty predictably, ran out to shoot who he thought was a solo player in the back, only to have Tinfoil shooting him from behind. Tinfoil hit him a couple of times but didn't down him and he must've realized that we were a team that just set him up because he ran off and we never saw him again. In the meantime, I had killed the boss, who hadn't even been shot prior, and was banishing by the time Tinfoil returned from trying to chase him down.

They're having a lot of issues with this patch but are trying to get a patch out tomorrow to fix them. There's a memory leak, sometimes it crashes when you use Dark Sight, and sometimes it crashes when you fight a zombie, to name a few. I lost 5 or 6 hunters in a row to crashes.

Sometimes you get lucky and they work perfectly and sometimes you don't.

Pirate Radar posted:How long is a while? Trying to figure out if I should cut my losses at some point, leave the lobby and re-queue for a game. I’ve been on that match found loading map screen for ten minutes now, for instance. Yeah, that's way too long. It takes usually takes about 2 minutes once it's found a match. Finding a match usually takes from a few seconds to a minute but sometimes it can take longer. e: What CPU are you using? We've had a few people in the Discord who can take several minutes to load in after the match has started and I think that might be the main factor.

Pirate Radar posted:i5-8400. I cut my losses after a while and tried again but still couldn’t get into a game. I can reliably get to that map loading screen but no further. The base frequency on that is only 2.8Ghz and this game seems to really want higher CPU clock speeds. It might not be initiating the Turbo Boost for some reason.

Welp, it looks like a lot of people are getting stuck at match loading so I may have been wrong. The suggested course of action is to try the EU servers.

I did and I managed to hit one twice and the other once but I didn't down them. We could hear them there shooting sporadically for about ten minutes and when we finally went over they were upstairs peaking through boards in the walls. I knew one of them moved out of the barn to flank us because I kept shooting them through the walls but I couldn't find him in all the brush.. They were the last team on the server aside from us.

Orv posted:Double bounty mode is neat, though we had to go looking for PvP as everyone was being babies, the newly dangerous mobs killed everyone, or disconnects are still frequent enough to put us in fairly empty games. Dungeons and I have mostly had the opposite experience running the Gauntlet. Almost everyone seemed to be looking for a fight.

The solo was probably just being opportunistic and trying to take advantage of the fight to get some kills. Dungeons and I had that happen the other day while we were fighting a team.

Feral Integral posted:Played a couple games and really having some trouble orienting myself. seems like the first clue nearby is going to have generally noone and then by the second checkpoint you'll start seeing the fast guys and ambush them there? I get the not making noise factor, but getting to the juicy bits faster im still trying to figure out. Tell us more about stealth runs, stealth guys This really depends on whether other people are going straight to the first clue or are out kill other hunters and their knowledge of the spawn points. Most spawn points have others very nearby but the clues are usually set up to draw you away from each other a little. Once you know where they are you can pretty easily surprise and kill other hunters before they even make it to the first one.

w00tmonger posted:Sorry, I meant shared between all players. Does each team have a unique set of 3? They used to but I believe they made it so some teams can share some clues recently. It doesn't matter much since you have multiple clues at the same time, so if you don't want to engage you can wander to another part of the map to find a different one.

keyframe posted:Oh man the suppressed pistol is so good. Destroyed a team at the boss by shooting them from upstairs through a plank gap on the floor. They had no idea what was hitting them. Even better is that you don't need to look for gaps if you can hear where they are and there's only wood between you and them. Shooting people through walls and floorboards never gets old.

keyframe posted:Is Sparks good? Is it a OHK on bodyshots on tier 1 hunters? Yes, it's good and will one shot anyone with 100 health or less. If you're worried about it only being able to hold a single shot at a time I would suggest the Caldwell Uppercut. It's a six shot revolver that does the same damage as the Sparks but the range is about half what the Sparks gets.

It's pretty severe. Shooting people a little outside of a guns range will do much less damage but if they're far outside of it they'll just start bleeding.

Faster? etc.) HP can be higher when you buy them but the max is always 150. They can sometimes have gear or weapons that aren't available in the store and their outfits are generally much better for camouflage.

AirRaid posted:I don’t know, I think a hidden timer might trigger when it’s just your team left? It’s happened to me a couple of times now. It makes it impossible for them to be revived because the other player will catch fire if they try and holding F will just put the fire that's on them out. Also, I'm pretty sure the timer not showing up is a bug. I had it happen to me a few times in the alpha, sometimes after people left with the bounty.

Amante posted:Got a few days of solo play in and I'm getting decent, even if I fail more often than I succeed. I'm getting used to making a decent amount of exp/cash safely in case I die or don't get the bounty (which I have yet to only once so far). Hives and normal zombies are plentiful and not hard to melee down, and I've been able to farm them a good deal without alerting other people by feeling out the flow of the match and hanging out on the back lines. Can't be TOO behind or people will kill the boss before I've even gotten the second clue, though... 1. The best thing to do against armors is aim for the legs first. Two swings will break their leg armor which will cause them to move much more slowly, to the point that they're basically no longer a threat. 2. Yes 3. Not really sure what sound you're talking about here, but maybe it's an non player enemy?

he1ixx posted:Is it 10 people or 10 teams? I thought I heard of people getting 16 kills during a round which would only work if it was 10 teams but that may have changed as the source was pretty old and a lot has happened since then. It's always been 5 teams and any solo player counts as a team. You can have 5-10 players per game depending on how many solos there are.
