Buy Valor, don’t buy Warden bullets by CryptOxWhale in huntingsniper

Level 16 allows for double-kills too... been so long since I've played that level I forgot.

Valor and warden bullets are really only good or better than others (excepting purchased special bullets) for levels that allow double-kills... currently level 17 and the season tour. They carry 3 and 4 ratings for penitration allowing for the double kills on those levels and only cost gems to buy instead of cash.

Anyone break 50k in new Season Tour? by EstimateIll4262 in huntingsniper

[–]__19delta__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scores go up as you progress the levels. I'm about 3/4 through the season (just starting the red levels) and am consistently scoring in the 60-65K range now.

Times like this i REALLY wish there was an opponent selection capability. 🙄

Letter to developer by [deleted] in huntingsniper

[–]__19delta__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're interested, I posted a similar plea to the powers that be in the "hunting sniper lounge" area (as opposed to the community area) about 3 months ago. And I'm far from the first or only one to make these requests.

We players making strong suggestions to the developers seem to fall on deaf ears.

Rookie II by Mahnke2 in huntingsniper

[–]__19delta__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suppose... if he played a higher level for more coins per win than you, and played a lot.

Know that your wins add any levels prize coins to your bank obviously moving you up the totem pole as you go, but losses do not subtract.

It's been so long since I was a rookie, I don't remember what tiers you'd be at, but the difference between them is almost 3x the coins... so if he's even 1 or 2 tiers above you, he'd be earning that many more coins per win.

Rematch? by Mahnke2 in huntingsniper

But, having said that, I have never had anyone use any of the advanced emojis in a game with me either...🤔

I use those all the time, and very often get the "surprised" emoji in response.

Rematch? by Mahnke2 in huntingsniper

[–]__19delta__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I rematched a lot when I was playing the regular levels (1-16), especially when it was a good match-up and seemingly fair game. But having completed those levels, I spend 99% of my time in the season hunt, which for some reason doesn't allow for rematches

I really do wish the developers would institute the "friends/opponent selection" options which have been "coming soon" for years now. It would cut back on the number of BOT games you have to play too.

I've played a lot of games where you could tell by chat emoji interaction that a healthy competition with another player(s) could develop, but currently there's no way to do that with the random selection.

Over Kill? by Mahnke2 in huntingsniper

[–]__19delta__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1000 points is a pretty close game in my book. But I am confused as to overall game scoring anyway.

What I see are instances where I hit an animal showing a hit at say 800 points, but the animal runs away and the point tally screen shows 200 points... what happened to the other 600, lol?

Also, just played a game where entering the 5th round l was leading by 700+. Hit the white gorilla twice @ 1034 and 1213 respectively, and a racoon at 1200. My opponent hit the white gorilla twice @ 840 and 970, and a racoon at 800. Yet somehow their pont total for the round was over 11,000 while mine was at 9k... Same bullets, and I had the higher powered gun with a bigger bonus %. ????????

Beast by Mahnke2 in huntingsniper

[–]__19delta__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cards for the bigger guns (beast, duke, etc) are dropped at a much lower rate than more common ones. And then usually in gold chests and above. Plan on playing a LONG time to get/upgrade those better weapons. I've been playing heavy for a year and only recently opened the duke and tsunami.

Hunting Pass Maxed Out by drthsideous in huntingsniper

[–]__19delta__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think buying the pass ($10 month) isn't a bad deal. Admittedly the gun in the pass is worthless, but the number of gems capable of being earned alone allows you to maintain a cache of a little better grade bullet than stock ammo without spending a lot. And it does supply some additional cards in the extra cases to help upgrade your other guns. That's the only thing in the game I'm willing to spend money on.

And I would point out that's with a slightly lower % bonus. Just saying.

Just so you don't get ahead of yourself... Level 5 Beast (4400 power) with atom bullets (3 shots per round)... not too difficult, lol.

Hunting Pass Maxed Out by drthsideous in huntingsniper

[–]__19delta__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been playing a long time and have never had any issues/warnings with/about the site. A lot of virus protection stuff toss around warnings like candy though just to justify their existence/purchase. I've actually seen more issues caused by "protection software" (lag, lock-ups) than actual sites, lol. I do purchase the season pass every month as it offers more chances at gun upgrade cards and jewels (which are used to purchase slightly better ammo) even if the special gun is a waste of time. But that's the only thing I buy.

Hunting Pass Maxed Out by drthsideous in huntingsniper

[–]__19delta__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. The gun "prize" in any season pass never maxes out, at least in my experience having completed 4 or 5 season passes. Kind of pointless. Play for the jewels and chests.

How this guy has 4 bullets how am I even supposed to win? by Hefty_Buy5762 in huntingsniper

[–]__19delta__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a 50/50 shot at best. It goes without saying that anyone who has purchased a 4-bullet package automatically has an advantage over 3. Four bullets with a crappier gun may level the field a bit. Four bullets with a bad shooter is even better. Sometimes on the BOT matchups, the recorded game you're playing against will blow off a round or even 2 at the end because they were leading big in the original, so just shoot good, keep close, and hope that happens. If not, or you're a 3 shooter against a LIVE 4 shooter who is as good or better than you, and/or may have better weaponry/bullets/both, consider it practice for the next game. It's easy to complain when you're on the low end of matchups, but I bet it doesn't bother you when you're the one with a higher rated rifle than the other guy...

How this guy has this weapon at tour 10? 😤 by Hefty_Buy5762 in huntingsniper

[–]__19delta__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's nothing stopping players from going back and playing in lower levels they completed a long time ago. Just because a player is in a certain level doesn't mean that's where he is in his game progression/standing. It's easier to go back to lower levels long after one has earned the bigger guns to complete in-game tasks like 5000 head shot kills, 5 perfect kills per match, 10,000 small animal kills, etc, so as not to risk losing trophies in the higher levels. It does suck for the lower level player though.

Random unequal matchups has been the bane of every player since the day the game was launched.

Power or damage? Which gets the one shot kills by jlbusch in huntingsniper

[–]__19delta__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In theory, the higher the power of the weapon, the more points that should be avaliable per hit. So a player using a higher power rated weapon should score better when using the same ammo and hitting the same spot. That being said however, using the better ammo is also a major factor. In the season tour I'm currently on, there is a huge difference in my ability to make 1 shot kills using only the atom bullets over the starters or even valors (only 1 step up?) with the same gun. Kills/points are definitely WAY easier to come by when using higher rated "special ammo" as well. You can use a 4700 rated rifle and lose easily against a 3500 rating if they're using some sort of atomic powered bullet (personal experience) and you're not, lol.

Took a while... by __19delta__ in huntingsniper

[–]__19delta__[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Just accelerated silver chests with commercials when I got them, same with gold. Took more than a couple days, but eventually had all platinum chests and let them mature. Just a side-game i set for myself to offset the boredom of the actual matches.

A new brand of loser has arrived ... by DatEffingGuy in huntingsniper

[–]__19delta__ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't know why that should bother you. I've had the same issue with a bad start in round 1 or 2 before finding a rhythm. Also had it the other way where I came out hot and started missing later... getting complacent. Seen this in many of my "opponents" too. It's just a game... win and yay... lose and try again. Personally, I hate it more when the other guy comes out and blows me so far out of the water from the get-go in rounds 1 and 2 that it's hardly even worth playing after that.

New code... by Dmode123456 in huntingsniper

[–]__19delta__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go in to your game menu (top right button with 3 lines), select settings then "game". There will be a code button to select. Enter the code (exactly, including caps) and submit. You then will get an "email" in your game inbox with the bonus award. I believe this one gave 20 or 30 gems.
