You know Hunt is getting big when it gets a "mythbusters" video
RIP Grant Imahara, Mythbusters was one of my favorite shows growing up.
On the liquid fire bombs myth. Some areas where the water is slightly more shallow, it will burn the hunter.
Yeah the hunt community defo needs more of these!
Great vid. Can’t wait to see more.
Indeed
I have a freaking myth here:
If a hunter is downed and you take its secondary, switching it with your primary, the downed hunter is going to have 2 large slot guns. When he gets up, will he still have those weapons?
This has happened to me, the large gun in the second slot stays on the ground when you get up
@@RiotSSB Ohhhh, so thats it
thanks buddy, I can finally sleep now 😂
Can the next myths video be longer please? Eager to see more of this
The ammo you get is based on your total reserve ammo and an element of chance between a min and max value - I read this somewhere on reddit a while ago, crytek confirmed and it clearly coincides with your results.
I never take the iron sight perks, always thought they were useless - apparently not.
This is great! There is a lot of misinformation because people do not test things themselves or take assumptions as facts. I'd love if, in a future episode of this series, you would cover the following myths:
-When standing against a wall gunslinger will make your gun stick out of walls, but hunter does not.
-Using a weak stamina shot while a normal one is active reduces the duration or overrides the 10 minute limit.
-Bullets just disappear/despawn after traveling 300m.
... some of these i didn't even know, but great job taking time to investigate ...
I would absolutely LOVE a full series of these! There's a lot of little quirks this game has that turn into myths simply by word of mouth and misinformation.
Can you check if any of the skins have bigger hitboxes? I feel like using the Researcher or Mountain Man is a disadvantage since you've got a lot more to your character model
Amazing, we need more stuff like this in the hunt community ! Always the best best content Ascendance, keep it coming.
Test out whether jumping into a body of water instead of running into it gives you a speed advantage (by letting you "fly" over otherwise slow terrain for a short amount of time)
It does, I sat there and timed it across a small river. Took about 2 full seconds to cross without jumping, and jumping over the first bit of water definitely sped up the process of crossing.
awesome video, i can bet all of this confirmed myths are going to be useful in some moments in my matches
I have always been confused by using medium slot shotguns thinking i cant one shot enemies, but this vid made me realize how much important quartermaster is now so you can bring a medium slot shotgun. Thank you!
Can you confirm the range of the pitchfork compared to the saber, axe, or bomb Lance?
I love video game myth busters since they double as a tips video
Wow. The ADS topic was new to me ... after 2.000 hours 😂. Thanks a lot. Great intel
Glad it helped!
Myth: Immolators cause horses to panic.
Nice job on the video that's leading to a lot of interesting comments.
The dmg description of hand shotguns is correct because it describes the dmg at 10m AND the avg dmg depending on random bullet spread. So yes you can kill someone with it or with bad rng not.
I like this series alot. Gj
Damn you guys! Let the newbs believe haha. I need all the kills I can get in this cruel game
"You can blow out fire with an explosion."
Here's a good one for ya:
The blade of the heavy knife can deflect bullets like the pan from PUBG if you swing it around. I didn't believe my eyes when my shot couldn't connect from 2 meters aimed right at someone's chest.
I really enjoyed this and subbed to you :)
I am quite new to Hunt (about 4 weeks now) but i remember watching the demo video back in 2017(?) and being interested then. I have since heard people say that it has changed a lot to be faster paced compared to pre 1.0. They have said that it was slower, tenser, and essentially much harder. I would love you to do a video on what has changed and what you think has changed for the better and worse, and what you miss/don't miss from older builds.
Thank you
The veterans say this because it was indeed a bit slower, there were several anti camping measures introduced to prevent stalemate situations.
Was it less tense? No. That hasn't really changed, but of course for those who have been playing for 1000s of hours it's not tense at all anymore, we are so inured to the sounds and other elements of the game world.
Was it harder? Yes and no. It used to be less forgiving in terms of getting burned, not having darksight when picking up bounty, no free hunters, challenges or quick-play to bring in bonus gear to your inventory. But on the other hand I think it was actually easier because a larger portion of the player base were new. Now you have a lot of really experienced players running around that can make things extremely difficult for beginners.
I believe this is the most balanced Hunt has ever been. Cheers for the sub!
This is great! Make more please. Thank you.
And i thought all this time that iron devistator was literally useless
Unless I missed something it still is. ADS doesn't affect shotgun spread and hipfire is still faster.
Nice video. Thanks for the work
People never seem to notice that the damage stat in the store is at 10 meters.
Really, it is exactly 10.0 meters for EVERY single guns from the store?!? Why the F then don't Crytek specify that anywhere? It's critical info yet they have useless tooltips everywhere.
@@PanzerIV88 They do actually, if you hover over the stat it tells you that the damage stat for example is upper torso from 10 meters.
On the "Burning Bodies Underwater" Myth, I'd like a little more clarification.
I'm pretty sure, but not 100% sure, that you can burn bodies underwater as long as they're in ankle/knee high water, but not waist high water.
I have a myth of my own; Dual wield/akimbo pistols are almost fully accurate 50% of the time. (Meaning basically every other shot is going to land in the middle of your crosshairs)
The reason I call this a myth is because I have no evidence to back it up but from experience this is my own personal truth.
And all of these are great tips!
For anyone wondering why the hand cannons say they do so little damage in the store. The damage number is how much you should do at 10 meters from your target. They have higher spread and therefore do less at 10 meters.
yup. can't wait for slug ammo.
The nitro express is pretty much a shotgun with slug rounds
@@DangStank TRUE and a terrible sight
I think you mixed up something on Myth 2: The premise is, take Mosin, take uppercut, EMPTY uppercut, replenish ammo, and then use only mosin without reloading uppercut. You get bigger pool of ammo to work with. Don't know if it allows you to pick up more ammo or not, but it definitely allows you to HAVE more.
That's a different topic though, because you get the same number of bullets from boxes anyway
Wow that rate of fire increase is really nice for the aiming traits
I very recently accidentally shot a dynamite bundle the nanosecond it left my opponents hand, and we both blew the hell up. I honestly thought the dynamite was still in my opponents hand but after watching this video i know now that the dynamite must have just barely left his hand. Either way we both died and it said i killed myself so i got a kill and he got nothing
There's one trick regarding getting ammo with empty weapons. Let's say that you have two weapons of the same ammo, maybe a Winfield and a pistol, and you only plan on using the rifle. If you empty the pistol and then go on to collect ammo until you're full, then you will have more ammo in the reserve for the main weapon, opposed to if both weapons were fully reloaded. This is because the maximum ammo you can collect will always amount to the regular amount of max ammo in the reserve added to the weapons capacity.
Can you do an in depth look/guide to the powerful 1 shot guns (outside of headshots)? Compare the shotbolt vs nitro vs melee vs bomb lance vs shotguns? Also if you can look at trap combinations and see what makes more lethal traps - double concertina trap vs concertina beartrap vs concertina poison and some other combos?
Insta-kill trap:
Poison, then Concertina , with a beartrap underneath.
Awesome content!!! Thanks male friend ☺️
The wax dynamite choke bomb negation is in the description of wax dynamite. But still awesome content. Tyvm
Hive bomb in water shot with a shotgun spawns 1 swarm for every pellet that hits it
Bees spawning in water die instantly (sadly)
Myth: When you are doing a Team extraction any Team member may go as far away as they wish, as long as one Person stays in the extraction Zone.
Damn, I had no idea that the largest bonus iron sights and similar traits give you isn't even listed on the trait! I wonder how many other traits have hidden bonuses.
the damage numbers in the shop are chest shots at 10 meter range and at that point the medium shotguns already lost a lot of damage
Quality work
Would love to see more videos like this, but I dont have any ideas to add
nice work. keep it up :)
if got another myth for you: when you downed alle hunter from one team, then the bodies insta-burn?
More videos like this please 👍🏻
Great video
Wow I might start using the wax dynamites now since choke bombs are more common with it being a tool
Like the myth video nice job
I'm getting the feeling that burning snaps the assassin out of his enraged phase but I'm having a hard time working out whether it's just coincidence as burning assassin take s a bit of time anyway
AYYY he did it!
Just a little nitpick somebody probably noted:
Mosin has no magazine, it is a strip-clip rifle
Hell yeah myth's busted and hunt gaining more popularity!
I heard a outrageous one. People keep saying that the Frag bomb is OP
We'll see how it handles after the next balance pass.
lol it's so OP that I got killed from one inside a brick wall behind a wagon 20 meters from the frag!
@@ericlewis3444 the distance shown at deathscreen is from the thrower and not the explosive, which is kinda dumb but still a fact :)
@@captainaustria95 Oh, know, he threw it from a rooftop much further, I was estimating from the kill view.
please include dark sight range in the next mythbusters, we know it's 150m radius but I heard some people say it got reduced.
i found i picked up more long ammo when running the avto if i had used it all, like 4-5 a box instead of 2
Ill look into this next time I unlock the Avto
Some people run dual uppercut with an avto with this you get 14-15 with 1 ammo box easily being able to make someone think you have no ammo but you really have a fully loaded ak
The consumable ammo box that is not world boxes even though world boxes give a lot more too^^
I tested this and got the same amount as I got with sparks. I wish it was more for the avtomat
Is that a quirk of it not having reserve ammo?
Here's one i saw in an old video: "if a downed hunter is facing up, there are more team mates. If the downed hunter is facing down, they are a solo or the last on their team to die." My team and I tried to test, but the results seem to indicate no. Sometimes a Hunter is face down simply because they were shot from behind. But I can't fully disprove it.
My current working theory is that is a player is revivable, they are face up. If a player has lost all their health chucks (multiple revives or burning) OR if their entire team is down, their body is face down.
But I haven't been able to prove that one either.
@@AVeryDownyChristmas Good theory, but I have not witnessed a body flipping over when they die from fire. Perhaps this is the state they were in when they died? like on their last bar?
@@AVeryDownyChristmas Nope as any fallen person doesnt flip when you burn them out, its based on shot orientation.
Personally I’d like to see someone test out the range of melee attacks. I hear all sorts of stuff. Like that the heavy knife has the longest range of all the tool weapons or that the bomb lance and saber have the same range.
For the "burning underwater bodies" it would be better to say it is outdated.
Before 1.0 you could burn them underwater even with a lantern if the lantern broke by hitting a grunt or anhoter player.
Iron Repeater is REALLY good then with the QS nerf in 1.4.4
Waxed dynamite states in its description "unaffected by choke bombs". Dunno if that was added after this video or not.
I wonder if a banish could restore 1 or more health bars of players who have died maximum times (been downed so many times that they can't be revived anymore or burned)
I tested this. Nope.
More please
The last myth has given me brain cancer, thanks hunt community very cool!
Is there a way to create a private lobby or something? Or did you actually chat with the enemies so you can make such a video? ^^
Wen is the next one? I want more 🤠
I have tested this a few times but if you are standing on top of someone and try to heavy melee attack they will not take damage.
My question about the "Stay in sight" perks is do they match the emptying time of a weapon being hipfired.
I believe hip fire is still marginally faster
You take more damage while at intense status effects from effects sources. (If you’re at max bleed and touch concertina wire)
Nop
idk if they patched it but regardless of fire type (even lanterns) if you or a partner stands over the body of a downed player in water and make the fire consumable break on your partners body or if you throw it straight up and it breaks on you, the fire will fall down on the water and burn them. it was a bug for the longest time and i have used it sense beta so they could have fixed it but this is crytech we are talking about
Can you survive a tomahawk throw from a hammer or shovel with hornskin on
Yeah need more myth busting
Myth #2 used to be true of the auto-mosin, but they patched it out with the redesign.
So both the compact romeo, the compact spectre and cadwell have a clean one shot at close enough range right.
Depending on the luck you get with the pellet spread I have seen them kill up to 12 meters in a single shot.
I have a question. As you demonstrate, compact shotguns like the specter compact can one shot at very close range as they do more damage at 1 meter than the 85 damage it says at 10 meters. Do rifles and pistols also do more damage at point blank range than they do at 10 meters? Like will the sparks which does 149 at 10 meters do 150 right in front of someone to the chest?
No, the damage falloff for all rifle and pistol weapons starts well beyond 10 meters
@@4FSGaming What I'm asking is if they do more damage than what's listed if they are closer than 10 meters, like if they are 2 meters away but it's a body shot.
@@dave6653 No, the listed damage is 10m to the chest. Damage drop off will never start before 10m for rifles and pistols
Yeah, it's gonna be that damage at 1m, 10m, and until drop-off begins.
Quick question about the Karabiner Deadeye. Do you have to have Iron Sharpshooter AND Deadeye Scopesmith to be able to ADS constantly. Or do you only need the Scopesmith?
You cannot Aim Down the iron Sights with scoped guns.
Only need Deadeye trait, not iron sharpshooter
Dont know if they updated the lantern one, but ive definitely shot them out of my friends hands and set them on fire
MYTH: When the Player burn(Fire bomb, OIL lamp, Immolator) and you kill them. he is Death and cant be revive.
"Iron Devestator" should decrease the 'standard spread'.
But there is no '
standard spread' in shotguns.
Only the pellet pattern itself.
A slug firing shotgun at this point would be a hip-fire laser beam.
If included it would be a possibility to reduce the spread on the "Specter Cpmpact" (to make it somewhat more viable) and would highlight the need of ads with it.
More skill in shotgun usage wouldn't be unreasonable if implemented properly.
Right but how in any way does it make sense to reduce the spread of a shotgun just by looking at it differently?
It doesn't. And that's not the way to encourage the use of skill with shotguns.
Just reduce the spread across the board (except the Romero) just very, very slightly.
Then make it to where the gun's center of spread actually wobbles around in hip fire, instead of being center of the screen all the time like it is now.
You then have less incentive to just hip fire every shotgun unless you're within 5m, and the tighter spread encourages a bit of aiming.
@@sirisaacnewt171 this is what i meant.
'human movement and parallax error spread' (like any other weapon in the game while in hipfire) + 'shotgun pellet spread' (distribution in a circle). There are pellet spread classes but those are not really... obvious
@@Niklas.K95
I'm fine with the center of the spread moving around in the hip fire radius, but the shotgun pellet spread should never change, even with a perk.
How is the machining and function of a gun going to change just because of the way you hold it/look at it? It doesn't, and it shouldn't. That just wouldn't make any sense at all.
@@sirisaacnewt171 Yes,
i just added that the Specter Compact is crap and that a tighter spread class could be over powered if not adjusted in other regards.
P.S:
Romero Handcannon (tight) vs. Romero Hatchet (wide)
Makes no sense to me.
Practically the same gun.
A wider sway in hip fire because of more weight up front would make some sense.
The shotgun spread in the game soly exists to balance the gun, not to make sense.
@@Niklas.K95
They made the spread for both the Romero Hatchet and the Handcannon the same in the patch that added dual wielding.
I want to know about the maps. So lets say we have 4 teams on a map, and each team is out and about gathering clues. Everyone's maps black out differently correct? But in the end, it leads them all to the same target.
All maps blank out the same, you can use this to track and predict player movement.
Here is myth.. MEathead worms can trigger crows.
On the steam discusion site, there are often subjects about cheaters, one dude showd video how he get killed with headshot, that was made from sparks LRR from 152m - AND - what is most important - when he died, he was behind crates, so can Sparks LRR, insta kill in that situation? Becuase half people start raging "Goddamn crytek dont do anything with cheaters" and other half said "well you have to understand there are better players than you"
That doesn't sound suspicious at all. Long ammo is designed to easily pierce wood, so crate cover wouldn't reduce damage much
Yeah it depends on the situation. If the guy was unseen then that would be suspicious obviously. I hope that cheaters aren't prevalent in this game
A friend has send me a Pic of his death screen where he died through a door or with a door sry idk how to say it. So
Myth: can you die by a door?
You can, doors to a tiny amount of damage when they are blown or hit open/shut.
@@4FSGaming wow thank you for responding so fast and thanks for explaining my question I was really confused
I have one i'd like you to address in the future.
Yesterday I hit an enemy player with a tomahawk sledgehammer at around 2 or 3 meters, and they lived. Not sure if bug, if hammer throw was not full charged, if not full charging hammer is even a thing. So my myth to test here is, is tomahawk always a one shot kill?
It depends on the weapon. The axe will kill if you hit the chest but the hammer needs a headshot
@@4FSGaming it does? Oh man im never gonna get that acheivment
I've had issue with those ammo boxes only giving me 2 or 3 bullets.
Were you using a Lebel? It gets very limited ammo from boxes due to low reserve ammo.
@@4FSGaming lol. Yes actually.
@@4FSGaming thanks for the clear up.
Yes guns with large ammo/more limited supply get less ammo from boxes. I've only gotten one buklet for the Nitro
@@sazger makes sense I guess, if you're decent with it the nitro is a monster. Back it up with dual officer for great times.
Myth number 6 wasn't even a myth lol. Unless they changed something... but the Wax Dynamite in item description says you can toss into smoke/choke and it'll still go off.
do you burn to death when you go down while walking through world fire?
Indeed you do!
It sucks, too, because your partner can't stop the fire.
I guess the guy who posted that Romero HC can't kill with one shot deleted his post :(
Romero HC can kill with one shot (obviously)
Myth: there is no bullet drop, only bullet travel
Yup
That's not even a myth, that's a direct confirmation from the developers lol.
Sparks deals 149 damage in upper torso at 10 meters distance. But will it do 150 damage upper torso at 0 meters distance?
nope, long ammo don't lose damage til 40m, meaning it's already its max damage at 10.
does a bayonet increase weapon sway? 🤔
Bayonet yes, Talon no.
what about killing a Immolater with Bomblanz strike without getting any DMG, not with the Harpun, with Strike. I saw it one but coudn't do it by my self.
Since the fire damage patch, you lose a 25hp bar from the explosion. Before the patch, this would heal quickly. I don't know though whether a 50hp bar heals back up to full or whether it's gone too now.
Is it possible to one shot people with the tomahawk trait from any distance ?
Pretty much. Leg and arm hits might survive (untested)
0:31
Hi 👋
but weren't the Water-Fire-Bombs meant to burn bodies in water? if not... what's the point?
Iron devastator buff when?
What do you think it could do instead?
@@sazger i dunno, maybe a bit tighter spread when ads shotguns. I'd figured this would be a pretty nice change for some of the ones who spreads aren't that great and wouldn't make the remaro that much better. I've seen that with the inclusion of duel wielding shotguns have been getting a little bit power creeped and wanna see them be more competitive in the current sandbox.
That's a good idea. I dunno how the spread would be tighter with ads considering it shouldn't affect the blast what have you, but yeah ads with shotgun is pointless. Apparently the RoF is even reduced with ads
