I do think it's too easy to sneak past stuff right now. I mean you can get within a few meters of crows and stuff. The hellhounds are the only mobs that have what feels like an acceptable agro radius.

DS boost just means that if you can't assault folks during the banishing phase, then get the gently caress out and try to ambush them after they've burned it down, closer to extract.

I do find it frustrating to get matched with level 100 guys who can buy guns that oneshot me while my guns just tickle their health bars. If i have the drop on someone, across a 100 foot stretch of water, they shouldn't be able to run at me and kill me with a machete while I shoot them.

Maybe add some sort of 'get shot, move slow' debuff a la Tarkov?

There's very few weapons that cannot kill with two body shots at close range.

Well I guess I was equipped with both of them.

I think they also need to make the extract block zone bigger. We just were in a short range, 5-10 yd firefight with 2 hunters at extract and it extracted us :(

edit: being able to set downed players on fire is the new meta and that loving needs to stop.

That's too bad, I was hoping for a doubled down PvE mode, it would be cool to go in, kill all the bounties then have to meet up and like summon a big boss or something to fight.

A buddy of mine and myself both get similar graphical stuttering in pretty much every match. Even on the lowest settings, he gets it worse than me and his PC is far better than mine. Is there a list of easy fixes to try? He 100% won't buy it if he can't fix this and I pretty much feel the same.

e: Does queuing for a random teammate also put you into games with pre-made duos?

Are you on windows 7? I was and had the same problem and upgrading to 10 fixed it.

I have seen this happening here and there, and when me and a partner tried it it worked well for us. You start off and sprint inward, with no regards to noise and just rush the first two clues. There's almost no chance anyone who spawned adjacent to you can catch up with you because they're going to try to sneak and you're fully loud. By the time you've bumrushed clue number 2 you have a pretty good idea where 3 is, or you've hit the boss and you can dump back to normal sneak-play.

I feel like I'd rather play the game they used to have. it's not like it couldn't have a 2v2v2v2v2 pvp mode like we have now.

This game would be mostly forgettable if it was just another 4-player, coop monstersmash, imo.

It would be stupid easy to add that though, double monster stats/spawns, add them spawning on noise events, remove pvp damage, good to go. Like it's kinda silly that the bones are here just give me some different options.

Respawning zombies and a more dangerous map would be great but the devs have said this is a PVP game and honestly that's where this game falls apart. Getting dunked on by a lvl 100 rank 3 with two crossbows is loving dumb every time.

That either took a lot of negotiation and trust on their part or the two teams somehow managed to get into the same match while in discord I'm guessing.

I imagine it was just queue timing which isn't impossible. We didn't hear anything on local voice.

Fired the game up for the first time in a month or so. Played two games. First one, one-shot (with my partner) by an Autovat by a guy we legit had the drop on.

Second game headshot/one-shot by a guy with a Dolch who had no way to know where I was. I don't think he was cheating, just lucky but like..

I guess that's the game now.

So I'm getting just unplayable Desync most of the time. I've had a few OK games, but just now I got trapped in a house, couldn't open doors or break windows before realizing it was just desync.

Hunt also feels way less full of loving cheaters. Most queues are under a minute and my friends and I have maybe one crash every 15-20 games, so not superb but not bad.

Has anyone figured out or datamined or is it even just out there how matchmaking works? Kind of tired of Prestiege 100, 6+ KDR edgelords 360 noscoping me with a pax at 50 yards through a fence.

8 or 9 losses in a row today, last one was this fuckin guy who headshot my entire team and me with that rifle like it wasn't even hard. Prestige 100.



I love playing this game but not when it just shits turbonerds on you who are way above your skill band. C'mon.

Yeah unlucky for you there. Padarius is a streamer and is very skilled at the pvp in this game. Fun guy to watch overall, too.

My team got wiped by Archie one time (8.6 KDA at the time he was) and that’s when I knew this game had no matchmaking.

Here's his stream https://www.twitch.tv/videos/718158544 he starts at 5:32, gets to our engagement 5:44. He kills me through the lil peephole on the 2nd floor, then darksights my partner, our third was dead off to the north trying a flank.

I guess i'd rather be in a single bounty match with 2 teams near my level than 3 teams one of which just murders us all before we do anything.

That said, watching myself get wrecked last night, he was pretty close to death too, 2 downs already, he got lucky seeing me through a hole in the wall.

So what do you actually "lose" when you retire a hunter. Sometimes it seems to take 'contraband' guns and gear, sometimes not, I can't make out a rhyme or reason.

Varkas posted:

The only potential equipment you should be losing is due to hitting a limit on the number of contraband instances you can have for a particular item, but that's due to the un-equipping of the stuff, not the retiring itself.

What is that limit?
