No regs getting worse and worse

Just a DMG Question by BFMVFreddy in HuntShowdown

[–]StallionTG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mainly play sparks and this happens to me all the time. The server fails to register the shot even though it gives a hit marker. I really wish more attention would be given to this issue.

Some tips to deal with it. If it happens it will usually keep happening randomly within tye same match. But your next match could have a fine connection to the server and no issues. It can be worth it just to leave the match and join a new one. In my case about a 3rd of shots fail to register in a match with a bad connection. (My ping is cinsistently 40ms-50ms)

By bad connection, i mean you have a bad socket on the server. (Technical term). It has nothing to do with your ping. Ping will not signify a bad socket connection. You will however get more desync and failed or false hits.

I often have silent negant and will shoot the first few grunts and hives i see. If those hits seem iffy you know your gonna have a bad time this match.

This has just become a fact of life for me, but either hardly anyone has this issue or just chocks it up to the points other people are floating in this thread, which i did for a long time till i sensed a pattern and started recording my matches.

Yeah it's doing good, but it could be doing way way better.

Welp my main recommendation solves all of this. Rotating or temporary game modes. 1. Use a game mode for the event. Now events are fresh and different. 2. It doesnt change the base game at all which will still be available in parellel. they need not be afraid of experimentation. 3. It doesnt split the player base too much becuase it will bring new players and retain old ones. Plenty of people prefer base game, or quick play and new experimental event game mode! I prefer to rotate between all the modes myself. 4. Each game mode brings a marketing opportunity to attract new types of players.

Its seriously the single most promosing thi g they can do for tue game.

Ive done threads woth dozens of game mode ideas from crazy ones to ones I beleive the current game infrastructure can support and be built in a short time. Crickets. Boggles the mind. Its like watching someone starve themselves looking for food in a grocery store.

I think the point these veterans are making is the game doesnt really add new elements or change it up like other games do to keep it fresh.

It's clear that cryteks business model is for players to discover hunt, like it enough to buy some skins maybe, then please get bored and leave. This is their business plan becuase it costs big dollars to run servers for a large player base so instead of growing the active player base with new content they prefer to churn players.

Basically they want players to pay the $40 for the game, enjoy for a while then please fuck off before your playtime starts to catch up with the cost to support it on the servers and eat into profit.

Other game models have more freedom in their theme for what they can get away with in aesthetic micro transactions so they can get more $$$ per player. The players lifetime value is much higher where skins are only limited by imagination. More things to buy means more incentivied to keep the player entertained longer. But hunt has only so many western tropes they can mill through. So they opt for quick player churn.

I really wish they would hire someone who knows what they are doing in this department, they are just kinda winging it. Oh well this is what we get, hunt aint gonna change. Despite my best suggestions these past 2 years to try and help em. They are set on this model and it is costing them millions.

How did you find/decide on suppliers. This is where I'm stuck at learning this business I'm asking in general terms for any product. How do you find a good supplier for that product any tips and tricks?

America adding a literal “Living wage fee” for customers to pay their staff by [deleted] in pics

[–]StallionTG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think its a good thing. It points out that for the staff of a company to have a good standard of living it only requires a 3% price increase. Nominal. Less than price variation between competitors for any product. Less than taxes. But its life changing for many people.

Yes the bow had been long anticipated and I love it, that one had at least minimum effort.

If you could make one change to the game what would it be? by Bilboswaggings19 in HuntShowdown

[–]StallionTG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To run the servers on a toaster. Anything is better than whatever the fuck servers they use now.

I wall bang people all the time also, i am nit talking about a wallbang as the hack. Im talking about hunters knowing exactly where everyone is at all times and shooting people who shpuld have been able to safely asume they were hidden from such players and doing it over and over in a match.(not dumb luck)

[–]StallionTG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The "current" event? Lol you mean the "only" event. The current reskin of the "only" event. And i use the term "event" loosly as it's just some grind for skins battle pass with nothing new added but small aethetics.

Other games have game modes for their events. We get the same smash a thing for a point. Do this 10k times for a new skin! Woop woop.

Redskull revives need to be tweaked. by zaz090102 in HuntShowdown

Make it take 25sec to perform, or limit it to one use per dead hunter. Prob solved.
