    Hottake: Throwing spear is killing the game. Remove it or nerf it. Its just way too overpowered at everything. Its a OHK on all PVE creatures except bosses. Its a OHK against hunters when thrown. Its a OHK against hunters in CQC. It has literally zero downsides and makes all other melee tools worthless in comparison.

      Its literally undoes all the changes to melee tools Crytek made. They nerfed melee tools so people would be more likely to take full melee weapons and guns with melee attachments. Then they released the spear which throws it all in the garbage. I love the spear, but it is definitely OP and makes every other tool worthless.

    They need to stop and look at why special ammo types existed in the first place: to add viability and utility to certain guns and a reason to pick them over others. There’s no reason to choose the new army now that the officer has bleed. or how the Springfield used to be the only medium ammo gun with access to bleed but a single shot rifle but now since the centennial has access, a gun with better irons, faster rof, and large magazine capacity there’s no reason to pick the Springfield. Money is so unbelievably easy to get now that the mosin price change isn’t an issue even from fresh prestige. So why would you chose the budget guns when the objectively better ones now have access to the special ammo that used to be exclusive.

      I mostly agree, but I think I understand the Springfield 1886's niche. Can't quote stats to you, but I think it's bullet velocity makes it the medium ammo sniper option. It hits headshots much easier and has a scoped 2-slot version. I still prefer a long ammo rifle, but it's "not bad". Would I take a Centennial instead? Yes, but only for the short/mid range purpose. I'd take the new Specter carbine over both of them.
      This is the problem with escalating options and introducing new guns to a game where the weapon balance is based on few yet uniquely suited weapons. Overlap and hard meta eventually emerge. That said, overall I think they've done a great job.

      If you wanna run cheap loadouts, the rule of thumb is Compact ammo is useless unless you opt-in for special ammo to give it the kick it needs to be competitive, same go's for medium ammo. Just pick accordingly to your play style, for example, I pick: -Springfield 1886/Spitfire with dumdum ammo because the Springfield has 2 slots for special ammo that I apply 1 dumdum ammo that increases my reserves for my Spitfire pistol, both are medium ammo and great in cqc.

    It's hard to deny that the viability of certain small and medium ammo guns hasn't gone up. I think it would be worse if the expensive long ammo rifles were suddenly on tier with the winfield 73s.

      well if only those "expensive" long ammo rifles were actually you know expensive. Besides the new price of the mosin (why Crytek does it cost 2x the krag while being a side grade?) all long ammo guns are fair cheap. The krag price for instance makes no sense and even less after the massive buffs it has received. Why does it not cost 500-600$+?
      Compact and medium is supposed to be worst but with the current economy of hunt the best weapons are far too cheap. Ive always looked fondly at the nitro for actually having a good price to performance and think other weapons so copy that balance.

    no matter the meta, the vast majority of guns in this game two tap to the body and one tap to the head at any range so it really comes down to pen and velo, both of which can be remedied with special ammo types if they're really an issue. the main reason you would care about high damage is one taps to the body after someone has been downed. point is play with what you want and you can make it work because most guns in the game still function well

    I've noticed a few things.
    1. I'm getting more kills per life than I used to. My K:D has improved, though I haven't changed my go to weapons or playstyle much.
    2. Medium ammo guns are now more competitive with the Long ammo kings, with the exceptions of Mosin Spitzer and Krag incindiary. I have yet to find a combo that beats those on strict performance alone.
    3. People are straight up ignoring bleed condition in fights. They don't seem to care if they are gushing life force, they try to stick out the fight until they die or kill you. Don't know why.
    4. Shotgun spread is still inconsistent and seems to work for everyone except my squad, not just me, my buddies have difficulty getting a kill with them let alone consistency... yet we are dying to them at what feels like absurd ranges, even through cover without slugs. The screenshots I could post...
    5. Compact ammo is laughably weak. Unless you get a headshot, like every other weapon, it feels like spitting on someone.
    6. Levering and Fanning seem much more inconsistent... to the point me and my buddies are not buying the traits anymore. It's aggravating to rely on it for a short range panic button and just watch every bullet curve around the opponent. Not like it used to be.

    Krag deserved to get buffed, i don't think anybody will disagree with that, but so far it has gotten 3 buffs
    124 damage to 126 damage, which now allows 1-shot bodytaps which was incredibly frustrating design of fighting against long ammo
    3 extra rounds, which means the Krag with its great rate of fire has more ammo to hose down at you, in isolation think is fine but with the damage buff it makes it kind of exhausting knowing that it has 18 rounds
    Price reduction, probably the smallest most insignificant change here but still a highlight that Crytek wants this weapon to be seen more in lower Elo
    overall i appreciate that the Krag is an extremely strong option, since i was so tired of the Mosin, but it shouldn't have gotten so many buffs at once, if you gave it more ammo for example that would've been fine on itso wn.

      The thing is in over 90% of the times the bullet drop doesnt matter at all. Most weapons just have a drop beginning at like 150m (i speak mostly about rifles here), and in most moments youre just around that range. And even if youre over 150m away, the drop is kinda small and ez to get used to. So it doesnt nerfed long ammo at all. So it still has the fastest bullet velocity (which is importain for distance fights) and also the most damage (has still the smallest damage falloff over range). Medium ammo got better but still cant reach long ammo and also most medium rifles arent that good sadly. Only the cenntenial is kinda good.

  • @Chubzic.
    @Chubzic. 3 місяці тому

    I understand the need in shifting the meta, and I don't mind it to some extend. But with their balance tweaks in terms of drop, Crytek opened a new can of worms, especially with the new always lethal headhots. Because now most medium ammo guns on HV bullets outrange long ammo guns.
    To the point where a cheap 42 (or smth) bucks Springfield 1886 Marksman with HV outranges Mosin Nagant Sniper that costs 600+ bucks (because on the range beyond 140 meters Mosin will hit the Springfield in the chest while Springfield will still land a headshot up to 180 meters).
    That's weird.
    Also Uppercut, while being a good gun, is completey outclassed by Pax Trueshot, because now you don't have to worry about the headshot range, so you can take a gun that is three times cheaper than Uppercut, has a larger 'zero' distance, and lands a lethal headhot on the range where you need to re-adjust your aim with Uppercut (and Uppermat).
    Which is also weird.
    So, yeah, balancing is needed here because we have a new wave of guns that are more preferrable than the others and that are outclassing these others.

      Nah not really, Long ammo is still supirior. First of all, money doesnt have value in hunt, because most players have so many hunt doller, that is doesnt matter what they wanna play, you have enough cash for it, so the price difference doesnt matter at all. And high velo ammo got nerfed, its way slower then before and does less dmg now, so thats just a nerf for medium and Compact ammo, because only martini has high velo as a long ammo weapon, so they arent effected by that nerf. Also even with high velo most medium ammo weapon nearly reach the normal bullet velo from basic long ammo rifle. But you ignored the fact, that most of long ammo rifles have spitzer, which is just high velo with fmj combined and if i remember correctly it hasnt even been touched the patch, so in fact long ammo is still as strong and medium/Compact got hit. And dont come with bulletdrop, in most of your fight you arent even in range where Bulletdrop begins and even if youre above 150m, the drop off isnt that hard. So something like Krag or mosin still outshines cenntenial by a mile, even with high velo. The only long ammo weapons, that really got a bigger nerf are the pistols. Uppercut and uppermat got reduced dmg (you cant kill hunter with bodyshots after 1 down anymore, with is sometimes importain). Also with these pistols you really feel the bullet drop. But i think this is healthy, because before you could pick an shotgun and use these pistols and had the strongest melee power with range power near to the rifles, and that wasnt balanced. If your big weapon is melee focused, you should be weaker at range battles

    For me, the meta is still the same but is even more balance. What I like about hunt is the fact that you can play every weapon, with the recent change it’s even more true for me, except for some weapon who relies on high velocity ammo (vetterli is the best example, complety ruined now)
    Ofc meta is about long ammo mosin dolch blabla but it doesn’t mean other weapon are bad, for me.

    I think they should consider making most long ammo guns 4 slot. This means without quarter master you can’t just automatically load into a match with Dolche + Long ammo. It also removes other strong meta picks like dolche precision and 2 slot shotties with quartermaster.
    You can leave the sparks and martini Henry as 3 and then I think there will be more variety in load outs.

    Honestly everything feels really good rn. The new gun does a tad bit too much damage tbh for a medium ammo type it might be slow but hits harder than martini. I'd say, put that thing to springfield damage; but near sparks damage just makes that thing a little scary to fight. Slugs' drop barely affects it and the deviation is pretty small they should increase the two of those tbh, now that everyone has access to them. There are a few guns like vetterli, berthier, and lebel that i dont really use but the last time i touched them during this event the felt kinda off.

    The meta went from long ammo rifle with uppercut to long ammo rifle with dolch or sometimes medium slot shotguns.
    Shotguns are still pretty good, but against players who keep their distance it starts lacking as per usual.
    Compact guns are almost exclusively bad except for rolling the dice with levering, as the levering buffs are pretty good.
    Medium ammo is also as per usual sub-par, you neither have the push of long ammo nor the RoF of compact.
    The only guns I really would play if i wanted to tryhard apart from the mentioned meta and shotguns would maybe be the cyclone because its just fun to spam or Winnie swift for levering rng, i have started to like the winnie silencer with levering tbh, but thats just because i have a thing for silencers

    Add long (any) ammo penetration nerf
    Penetration should do full damage only when you use dedicated pen ammo. A solid -10% to dmg on average when you wallbang a single wall then -35% on 2 or more walls should be a thing.
    You can even make this dmg reduction dependant of the surface you shoot. Hay = 5%, Wood = 10%, aluminium/metal = 15%. You can even buff some under used long ammo weapons by getting them a reduced penalty and increased penetration.
    And nerf spitz by removing 1 or 2 more bullets from the loadout but bring back the a proper 126 dmg to balance it out.
    This simple change would make compact & medium much more used with penetration

  • @plaguebearermetal
    @plaguebearermetal 3 місяці тому

    I feel like the weapon changes aren't nearly as impactful as what really causes these issues to stand out: a much better map for exchanges at distance. The compact ammo feels as though it simply doesn't have the velocity to be valuable unless you're a headshot machine, and spoiler alert, most people aren't. I love the changes, but the compact ammo feels outclasses even more so than was made evident in the past with closer range exchanges and smaller compounds, but the medium ammo has suffered as well. I feel as though balances will be made, or maybe even another map will come into play sooner rather than later that makes the weapons that are for closer exchanges more viable. I'm really enjoying Hunt atm, so much so that I've prestiaged to really get to grips with how each weapon behaves from scratch - although I'll have to start hitting shots to really work things out 😂

    The most buffed custom ammo now seems to be Incendieary. Everybody can guess which one does a Krag also have.
    Also the burn speed made all the 2v3 or 2v2 fights extremely one-sided, without time to properly rotate through the intricate compounds and such. Whoever kills and burns first wins most of the engagements, unless you just give up on your partners, but then they just burn out and have to wait for you to win the match by yourself and then go get a token.
