I mean to each their own obviously but the new map is like so wildly different than the existing maps, it has made the old ones feel so simple and flat by comparison.

HUNT: SHOWDOWN |OT| Hunt Together | Die Alone (Steam, XBOX ONE, PS4)
- Thread starter k0fighter

really? it's significantly different not only in terms of the overall shape and features of the landscape and its aesthetic, but the compounds are largely pretty different and unique as well. I really love it so far.
yeah a few friends also feel the same. Ultimately, no big deal to us as we love the core game :)
I think its because a lot of the textures are re-used. Which I think is fine. I am more worried about the AI spam. Why are there 4 murders of crows that some reason do not make noise? 3 immolators? 4 meatheads? One compound.
Stupid game. Enemy hunter was 1ft away on the other side of the wall, back to me, just his head showing, over the wall, shotgunned him 3 times from basically point blank range but obviously the wall was clipping in the way, then his mate got me.
Looking forward to trying the new map as and when it hits console. Hurry up!

mainly just have weapon swap on Q, bandage/stop burning on mouse side button, change fire mode on other mouse side button, and push to talk on yet another mouse side button. mostly just default hunter control scheme from there I believe
I noticed huuge had the shift and RMB swapped (hunter mode) so I tried it, its pretty good. If nobody noticed that basically I hopfire with shift and I run or ADS (when holding shift) with RMB2.
The QoL for control schemes are great.
The Sprint to ADS for hunter is great as you don't need to worry about having to do the correct order anymore.
Then being able to rez red skull if you got bounty. I think it will get balanced and its fine TBH. The people I play with actually try to save and usually if we get red skull, its a server wipe and two of us left.

Code:
Gunslinger control changes
Lower weapon
Added the ability to lower weapons/items while using Gunslinger (like Hunter mode).
Holding [Q] will lower the weapon (tapping [Q] will still perform the quick weapon switch).
Shooting is still possible, however there is a slight delay due to having to raise the weapon first (you will not need multiple inputs to raise the weapon).
Keep lowered State (Menu setting)
Option added to the settings menu.
Select what should happen when weapons are aimed or fired while Lowered State is toggled on
Options:
Enabled – Weapons automatically transition back to Lowered State after being aimed or fired
Disabled– Weapons need to be manually lowered again after being aimed or fired
Hunter control Changes
Dedicated Melee button
Dedicated melee button [V] is now available in Hunter mode (no longer a Gunslinger only option).
Works in parallel to standard melee attacks.
Allows you to perform melee attacks when in Shoulder Aim or ADS where attack inputs could only fire the weapon
Sprint to Aim transition
An option that allows you to determine what happens when an aim input is issued while sprinting:
Specifically, if you have ADS/Sprint assigned to the same button (current default setting [L-Shift])
Drop down menu Options:
Shoulder Aim – Interrupting sprint will go to shoulder aim as normal.
Aim Down Sights – Interrupting sprint will go directly to ADS as long as the sprint input is still pressed.The Sprint to ADS for hunter is great as you don't need to worry about having to do the correct order anymore.
Then being able to rez red skull if you got bounty. I think it will get balanced and its fine TBH. The people I play with actually try to save and usually if we get red skull, its a server wipe and two of us left.

The biggest and most impactful change is the removal of the movement penalty from getting out of ads after shooting. I already do the darksight cancel to achieve a similar effect but making that a baseline mechanic is going to change firefights across the board as people naturally have the ability to peek, shoot and get back behind cover quickly.
How does this work? you go into darksight right after firing a round?
I spent an hour between the two control scheme in training on the test server. There is a slight delay to shoot when lowered in GS.
Sprint to ADS on the hunter control scheme is dope af. It's hella fast and it skips hipfire.
Also the remove zooming for hipfire is great! Even in hunter.
I basically just want the button to put the gun down when i look out of windows and other stuff so my gun doesn't poke out.
i'm not really gonna use it in a situation where i might have to shoot fast. Hunter control scheme is just the weirdest thing in any FPS to exist lol.
Oh I know, I just noticed the delay. I mean I was purposely testing stuff out. The hunter controls isn't really a new or old method, its actually pretty old as in not first game to do this. I started when GS was added but not the default mode and I found it pretty easy to adjust to. Though I did reverse the order of the two buttons if you scroll up and look at the picture of my keybindings. Its not as super awesome as Sprint to ADS though as:
1) It doesn't matter the order of buttons you push now to ADS. To a certain extent as one is when you're sprinting.
2) You skip straight to ADS from sprinting, meaning you don't even go thru hipfire. Tho if you been playing hunter for a long time you pretty much have lowered to ADS down.
The split second after you fire you tap your darksight key. This will start the darksight animation canceling the ads movement penalty that lasts for the duration of the recoil animation, but it will throw up your hands and black out the screen for a second so you have to know exactly where you are as you need to turn and start moving while basically blind.
This change means there is no longer a need for that, and making that more accessible I believe will make a big difference to how the game feels to people who aren't already 1k+ hours vested into it, making the whole thing feel more responsive and naturally lead to better peek shots.
Ya I'm in agreement for ditching little unintended microisms if it puts everyone on the same playing field.
The other big change I'd like to see is getting rid of all those weird desyncs when you attempt to Skyrim some objects.
I died two days ago because I was rushing someone around a tree with my knife and they must have stepped on something the game didn't like cause as I came around and stabbed at them they teleported away and were behind me and killed me :|
Desync issues and hit reg will never be fixed, Crytek has a partnership with a complete dog shit server provider with a hilariously low tick rate, and expecting them to upgrade is a fool's errand.
Tickrate has never been a problem in this game, probably the best out of any shooter i've played. Somewhere between 80 to 120. Compared to Apex's horrific 20hz. Never been killed ducking back into cover in hunt, unlike in apex where it happens frequently. It's server stability that causes problems. Just too many people for how little money crytek gives the dev team for servers
I wish this game had:
1. lean around corners
2. When behind cover, if you aim it pokes up with the weapon in zoom

I wish the camera wasn't from your heart as you can't see upwards yet a person from higher can easily see your head.
I am having issues with keybindings and GS. It's so weird having to take some bindings I use for tools/consumables to fit melee on my mouse.

Then you haven't played this game, I don't know what to tell you. Getting killed well after getting back behind solid cover happens all the time, the server eating bullets happens regularly.
next you're gonna tell me you wish you could go prone
This game has perfect gun on gun gameplay. You start adding stuff like lean and prone it changes it completely. This is one game because of the lack of certain movement option and the types of weapons it's fairly realistic to take on 2 or 3 people at once.
i agree. and boy does it feel great when you take out a duo or trio on your own
wow! I totally forgot that one. I say it to my buddies all the time. :) Yes, I'm a Battlefield player but I don't actually sniper. I don't mind prone. I know it's not popular
New patch is goddamn amazing, some bugs aside this is the best the game has felt since pre 1.4
Progression locking bug sucks. The event patch that is suppose to fix it, what is that one gonna break? xD
Ya I'm glad i didn't prestige right before the patch, staying at 47/100 until it's fixed.
This Patch Is Great! 1.6 Highlights
Minus all the bugs obviously, the game is so much more responsive.
youtu.be
The game is finally letting me move how I want to.
Is Lasalle out on console? Got the latest update and the light the shadow event is on etc but I'm still getting the usual two in bounty hunt. Is there any way to select a map?
Also as an aside why the fuck is my PS5 connection over wi-fi so much worse than my PS4 connection?

Map rotation was supposed to be 80/10/10 in favor of Lasalle. So of course they fucked it up on consoles and it's more like 20/40/40.
Love the game but I don't think I can stick with it after this event on console, it's still too jank. Can't even really use scopes because the game doesn't render out that far.
i was playing particularly poorly last night after work but damn. i have now been solidly 3 stars for a few days despite doing quite well regularly at high 4 stars and 5 stars. i guess many decent players have come out to play again for the event. at least i ended the night with a couple of kills and a couple of wins, but it started ROUGH. also ran into the first ONE STAR i have ever seen in two different matches.
also the throwing axes are pretty great as a melee, especially if you bring stamina shots. they can one hit kill a hunter to the body with a heavy attack if you take the perk for them

Bow kicks ass. I'm a sucker for a good bow and this packs just the right amount of punch to feel useful. Had a great moment today where I snuck up on a camp that'd just started banishing Scrapbeak on the new map (that I'm still getting familiar with). Had an easy rout to the upstairs section of a barn, snuck in without making any noise and realised the boss was right in front of me. Camped on a corner and some poor fucker ran about three meters in front of me to start scoping from the window I'd just crawled in through. Watched him slooowly pan his aim, back into the barn and look me dead in the eye, before launching my primed arrow into his head. I felt bad but it was hilarious.
This game is damn fun at times. I'm not very good at it (or competitive shooters in general) so this was a major deal for me.
Well that's annoying. I really want to try the new map.
That was beautifully done! Man, I wish console had that kind of smooth performance.
I might hang fire playing anyway until I've got some powerline adaptors/homeplugs for the PS5, I'm getting all kinds of lag on the WiFi which I never had with the PS4.
They made the map spawn chances even now. Though dunno about console.
Also hipfire rapid shot head bang ahhhyessss
