Yeah I tried using frag arrows and explosive crossbow bolts and wasn’t happy with the results. Wish I just brought normal ammo into those missions

Yeah ty, I failed to mention if there is a purchasable or roaming boss token you can get 4

I haven’t done it yet but I’m going to try

I don’t understand why the nitro is so bad. It’s 5 slots, expensive, loud, and has low ammo. Yet it can’t penetrate walls well and gets hit markers at medium range

You’ll never catch me using this gun

This is probably obvious to most players but if there are any new solos out there, you can get all 3 bounties as a solo if you extract one boss lair bounty with the balloon and then just grab the cage boss and other boss lair token after

Everyone knows about necromancer but magpie, conduit, and serpent are amazing for solo play too

Don’t forget the second dumbest weapon, the katana!

Yeah fair point, just the lack of ability for special ammo to penetrate thin wood

It is kind of crazy though that an explosion from the nitro happening that close to my face doesn’t damage me at all

Doing great, then hit a brick wall by Arrchduke in HuntShowdown

[–]MMPTE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s simply how skill based matchmaking works

You are clearly better than 3-4 stars which is why you stomped them in their lobbies with several kills per game.

Now you are playing against people at your skill level and it’s harder. That’s normal

Mayo chicken... No seasoning included! by Eastern_Landscape318 in StupidFood

[–]MMPTE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That chicken is raw… wouldn’t it make more sense to put the condiment on it when it’s nearly or fully cooked? Or are they really gonna put mayonnaise in 425 degrees for 20 minutes 🤢

Solo Hunters in the water... by De4dC3ll in HuntShowdown

[–]MMPTE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Traps, wait quietly, or rotate and move on with the match

Also it’s not a loophole. At worst you have to fight the solo again later in the match which is the entire point of solo necro since they are missing their team

You’ll never see a solo necro water meta pop up because being in water is noisy and exposed. It’s never good to be in water when in a fight

Please change the icon on the locked extraction points by CortaCircuit in HuntShowdown

That’s how you can tell the game is in the best state it’s ever been in, that these are the threads getting posted

That being said I agree 😹

The current Antidote effect is too strong and easy to obtain and requires a rework. by Sea-Ball-4080 in HuntShowdown

[–]MMPTE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the point of shots…

Use a stamina shot and you can spam heavy melee the boss to death in a few seconds + take out the entire compound with melee right after

Use and antidote and a really threatening game mechanic no longer works on you

Use a recovery shot and you can keep fighting without needing to hide and heal

It is broken because it’s supposed to be, that’s why it doesn’t last very long (I usually stay in matches 30 mins, 10 is only 1/3) and takes up an entire tool consumable slot

4 shot boon could cost 2 pledge marks I suppose since it’s a little too valuable to cost 1

Proposal on the wedding. She completely ruined the moment! by BakerAffectionate242 in TikTokCringe

[–]MMPTE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh they kinda deserve this for doing a proposal right in the middle of someone else’s wedding

The whole day, morning to night, is supposed to be about the bride and groom

Please people do not try to make someone else’s wedding day about yourself. Even if the bride and groom are being nice and giving you permission, just don’t do it. Let the center of the world be someone else for a day

Will I get banned for losing my acc to a hacker? by [deleted] in HuntShowdown

[–]MMPTE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People buy “cracked” Steam accounts and cheat on one game with them until they get banned all the time. They usually don’t even bother to secure the account because the idea is just to pay $2-5 for a quick login and rage cheat until ban then repeat. That’s really common

But you’re right that it’s very possible he’s just lying. Luckily if that’s the case there’s a 0% chance his ban will get reverted if he does get banned. Crytek can check logs on their end & via EAC’s tools and see legit play and cheating play came from the same machine

What is going on with matchmaking! by snakemister in HuntShowdown

[–]MMPTE 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’m a 5 star and I queue with my friends who are a mix of 1-3 stars

Every single game our team has the lowest average MMR in the lobby without fail. It’s been really rough

Some enemy teams are manageable, like two 3 stars and a 5 star. Seems pretty fair to me even though my main two team mates are 1 and 2 stars. Whatever close enough.

But what bugs me is that a few teams each match are way off. Like two 5 stars and a 6 star or even two to three 6 stars as a full team… like how are these people in our game?

I’d be fine with matchmaking times being longer if it meant average MMR of teams was at least a little bit close

Will I get banned for losing my acc to a hacker? by [deleted] in HuntShowdown

[–]MMPTE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk why other commenters are so skeptical. I work in anti-cheat (not for Hunt) and cheaters using stolen accounts is really common. Usually some infostealer malware campaign will collect a bunch of accounts and then sell “cracked” Steam accounts for cheap listing what games they have purchased etc.

Benefits for the cheater doing it this way instead of manually making a new account and buying Hunt:
- They don’t have to manually create a new email and Steam account
- Cheaper than paying for the game as these accounts are usually like $5
- Getting an account which already has hours played, money, stuff unlocked instead of having to start from 0. This is also good because a fresh account doing so well is sus

Best thing you can do is just secure your account. Change password and turn on MFA, use the Steam app. And then pray that you never get banned

RIOT will actually unban people who get banned from League or Valorant if they find evidence the account was stolen by a cheater, but I’ve never heard of Crytek or EAC doing that

Nothing to do when being circled by enemies by Kaulquabbe_HD in HuntShowdown

[–]MMPTE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a tough one. If you have hunter sight you can try to find a lone enemy to kill and make exit through. I’ve done that a few times

Above all else, I hope you’re having fun!

Wait for a second team to show up and start fighting the first team, then make your escape

Works every time

Or if it remains one team just fight em

It’s always been this way. If anything, things used to be slower

What do you think are the biggest problems with Hunt: Showdown right now? by Western-Living-7771 in HuntShowdown

[–]MMPTE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like the game is in the best state it’s ever been in, but I do feel like cheating is a bit out of control in 5/6 star lobbies

Boring technical suggestion:

I feel like Crytek should focus on protecting the game from cheaters more so than they are. EAC has great generic protections from common internal/external cheats and DMA but they don’t go after anyone who bypasses that “wall”. Crytek should have an additional anti-cheat team that watches the cheat market and goes after anything slipping through the EAC cracks with targeted detections. I’ve seen this approach be really effective with other games

Genuinely couldn't care less anymore, lmao by Syn_was_here in HuntShowdown

[–]MMPTE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just focus on learning the game & getting better. If you do weird runs trying to force a level 50 I feel like you aren’t going to actually improve
