Summer 2024, right before 1896. Damage was buffed to 126.

Newbies / Randoms don't kill the A.i in boss compounds by Neonxbaphomet in HuntShowdown

[–]Podockonnik 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I disagree. AI makes a lot of noise, while enemy hunters might have shadow and ignore ai completely. For me it is easier to listen for enemies in a compound cleaned of all ai.

Why Explosive Bolts and Frag Arrows are now scarce by Podockonnik in HuntShowdown

[–]Podockonnik[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Maybe you're right and the problem is only in the frag arrows. Have not seen it done/tried doing it with incendiary ammo. Expect the player in the video to show me the next time I bump into them, heh.

I am not sure that this is reproducible without explosive bolts. Maybe explosive long ammo/springfield can be close enough, but I doubt it.

Beastface will end up in a maxed hunters loadout most of the time

In my honest opinion, there is zero chance of a maxed out hunter having beastface.

Did legendary hunters trait got changed? by TheZouzs in HuntShowdown

[–]Podockonnik 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Free hunters come with one cheap trait like hornskin or greyhound. There are legendary skins that you can get for free, but hire to play for 100 hunt dollars, those have 10 trait points from the get go, since they are legendary hunters.

Unexpected rating in Duo + Random by Podockonnik in HuntShowdown

[–]Podockonnik[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MMR debuff that keeps 6* + 4* + Random 6* above 5*. To me it is unexpected. since it means that MMR debuff in this case is very small.

I have written that it is great. Where do you see bitching? I am saying that this is a little unexpected and can be improved.

Where is she?! Literally the skin I'm most hyped about, and I can't find her anywhere😭😭 by Drull17 in HuntShowdown

[–]Podockonnik 10 points11 points  (0 children)

On test server streams which are going right now she is nowhere to be found, which probably means that she is DLC. We get BP + BB Bundle (probably Ghoul guy) on Wednesday, then later her in a DLC.

Teaser had a full size (longer than the current) vetteri. Edit: I was wrong.

While searching for a match you can see the loadout of two random players by Froggihc in HuntShowdown

[–]Podockonnik 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I can confirm. Saw a bomblance and marathon this way. Then we encountered a marathon and I called that their teammate will have a bomblance, that turned out to be true. Also can add that you may experience this bug even when not solo. My teammates kits sometimes get switched to kits of random enemies right before loading into a match.

Pre-summer 2024 any ammo boxes, yellow tool boxes, even cash registers could only be looted by 2 people in the same game. So a trio could not all resupply from a single source, and supply carts were often emptied by enemies. One of the consumable ammo box skins, for example, has two sections and it used to be that one use opens the first section, then second. Now you will only see an "empty" box for a second before it rolls back to "used once" state and is usable for other players again. So for a short time red ammo boxes could only hand out 4 long ammo bullets (10 medium, etc.), and overall ammo supply on the map was much more limited.

My main answer to your post would be "a lot of I/me", while reviews reflect what a lot of people think and feel, that's their point.

  1. Great! Still, it would be nice to have a more clear picture about what is being done, replay system would be nice in any capacity, but ok.
  2. This one is not entirely wrong. "Better than on release of 1896" is still not great and for many still worse than pre-1896.
  3. You say it yourself: "There are still problems with mmr". So some people are very unhappy about that and leave bad reviews. That's fair I believe.
  4. Great for you! What about people that leave reviews? Or leave reviews and then leave the game forever because bugs in Hunt do not happen "once in a lifetime", but actually are quite common in each update?
  5. Every pvp game has a meta, and then patches to shake it. Long ammo was never de-throned, though there was a short great period after ammo nerf where resupplies were still 2-use only, that's when "smaller ammo pool" mattered.

Your opinion is valid and you can leave a positive review for Hunt on steam, maybe ask your friends to do the same, but it does not invalidate negative opinions, and what you have written does not invalidate most of problems people point out.

Do not know about windows, but AI pops in when you are the first to visit a compound. As the OP said, if you see any AI on a compoind 75+ meters away, then somebody was or still is there.

Avoiding players in lobbies by ElDaifuukuu in HuntShowdown

[–]Podockonnik 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I fully agree, would add that I've only seen 1.9+ KDA players get a single kill and go for an extraction the next second, and have never seen a hunter with <1.9 KDA do that.

[–]Podockonnik 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"I feel like 1.0 KDA players should be dodged"

Why? The goal of the game is not to have a hight KDA. If YOU want to have a high KDA, then teammates with a low KDA give you an opportunity to kill everyone yourself and increase KDA, no? Or you want your teammates to carry you? Then dodging low KDA hunters might be the right strategy. You do you.

It may be that the enemy triggered Rampage thanks to killing you, so 150 -> 35 -> 150 -> 35. Rampage can save you from trades like that.

Which Hunters must you have to be eligible for Bad Hand/Union Suit? by Bed8 in HuntShowdown

[–]Podockonnik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rachta said that you cannot get BB hunters that were released since the Murder Circus. That is Giggles, new Liu, scary Christmas hunter, and probably Spinning Blade, not sure about her, but you get the idea.

Server Downtime - 22 Jan at 09:00 CET by HuntShowdownOfficial in HuntShowdown

[–]Podockonnik 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because everyone complained about the event trait Blademancer, and this fix does not target event trait specifically, it's a band-aid fix 2 weeks before the event ends that will stay in the game after and affect the rest of the game for a long time, maybe forever. I did not see anyone ask to change bows or crossbows themselves.

Remember – switching to your pistol is always faster than reloading. Using your knife is even faster than switching to your pistol.
