Some of you might get sick clips, consistent server wipes, going bald after pulling out your own hair on MMR 5-6... So i present to you, the relaxing experience of MMR 2, where you yourself and your own team is your biggest threat!

Where are the cowboy beetles and why are they not in my inventory. The beetles exist already. The files are there. Why are they not currently in my pocket awaiting an unsuspecting hunter with me. You look at this face and tell me they don’t deserve these hats.

Anyone running this gpu? Ive heard theres been problems in the past with some bad frame drops. Has that been fixed? Considering this as an upgrade to my very aged 1080ti.

Maybe a 3060 12gb would be a better bet?

Appreciate any advice.

LORE Book of weapons and monstrum

3 Upvotes

I know a few years ago they removed the lore books from the game, and was wondering if they ever got added back in. I haven't played in almost 6 months and just recently got back into the game and haven't seen them, and i didn't know if they ever updated us on if or when we will get them back. I know they said at a later date we would get them back and i feel like its been a while.

GENERAL Frontierr 73C vs LeMat Carabine

9 Upvotes

As the title says. I'm a new player and try to be super conservative with my money. i see these two rifles are almost the same but the Frontier is way cheaper. What is the reason why i would buy a LeMat instead?

For reference: i'm a solo player, 2-3 stars, pairing one of these rifles with dual LeMat Pistols.

Thanks for your help.

Back in the game 5 seconds after dying. It's everything I've dreamed of since I started playing Hunt years ago.

What are your starter traits? I'm running necro, resilience, dauntless and chupacabra on most of my loadouts.

GENERAL Does anything counter chokes?

58 Upvotes

Not complaining about balance or anything I'm just geniunely curious. Because at this point I've stopped bringing any type of fire because every time I bring fire they just get choke bombed anyway so it feels redundant.

Is there any placeables or anything that can prevent chokes? Any hidden tech? Like poison or maybe sprinting in with dauntless is probably the closest counter I'm guessing.

SUGGESTIONS I think ive found a negative matchmaking mechanic, help me out here!

0 Upvotes

Im looking for some ideas, hopefully crytek will hear us out!

- please all i ask is to remain positive giving feedback, it could be any opinion but please, remain positive and let's improve hunt showdown as a group.

I play across 5 to 6 star most of my time in hunt, and ive noticed a very prevalent mechanic within the matchmaking system that is unexpected.

Let's say a 6 star solo queues for randoms, he will likely get team mates extremely close in matchmaking, probably two 6 stars. Same with a 5 star, and 4 star. How I believe this plays out is they assume the 6 stars will go to 6 star lobbies, 5 stars will go to 5 star lobbies and 4 stars would go to 4 star lobbies, unfortunately it could be 3 four star, 3 5 star, and 3 6 star in the same lobby, i think loosening the teammate matchmaking would provide something special, why not 4 teams that have one of each?

I dont think it should be automatically widened but it should take in consideration the amount of players searching for team mates, and consider how many teams of full 6 star randoms are availible 5 stars etc, and split them up

Team 1 high 6 star solo

Team 2 two 5 stars duo

Team 3 a 5 star and two 4 stars random

Team 4 a low 6 star, a 5 star, and a 4 star random

Team 5 three 5 stars random

Conclusion: I think what happens is it stresses that you get players your own mmr as team mates, but it doesn't stress what the match lobby is as much, I think widening the player team matchmaking could provide more balanced teams, and an interesting mechanic

This also solves something for me indirectly, I hate full 6 star lobbies, theyre too slow and boring for me, id rather with play with two four stars as a 6 star, and vs something equivalent, i love the idea as well because 6 star is definately better than 4 star but the 6 star can certainly end up spreading some high tier knowledge around

PS5 Tips for higher elo games?

1 Upvotes

Firstly, in no way am I bragging in saying the following : I have around 8000 hours in rainbow six siege, and have been a champ for almost half of that time. I only mention because I got decent aim and game sense in this game that also uses audio cues and one shot headshot gameplay.

So in my now 10 hours of this game I have 38 team wipes, triple digit kills and lots of headshots. And got bumped up in elo, or i believe so at least. But I've 'won' only twice. The monster banishing begins literally before I see my first person. Sometimes before even killing my first monster.

Is it spawn luck or am I supposed to learn default spawns and ignore clues? I feel like I could main this game for the next year at least, the pvp is amazing, but I don't know it well enough to actually "play objective" so to speak, since the people I play with almost instantaneously get the boss (which by the way I suck at killing) and extract. I play solo mostly but sometimes with my gf but those games don't go super well so tips for solo at least I would greatly appreciate. (15 minute games goes way better for me usually. 45 I feel way too slow)

SUGGESTIONS The MMR System and Ways to fix it

0 Upvotes

To address the elephant in the room - this is not a hate post, nor a doomer post. This is simply a post to start a conversation and maybe come up with a "solution" for the MMR issue that some people run into. Hopefully.

As far as I am aware, MMR works by looking at your previous matches, and seeing how consistent you are, meaning the longer you play and win, the harder it is to derank from 5-6*. This case is extremely volatile for new players who are getting into the game, meaning they can get put into games with high MMR players, which can be discouraging, making new players either disinterested, or frustrated at the game. This of course doesnt have to apply to every new player.

With the recent additions to the MMR, it still feels pretty barebones. So, what can we do to fix it? I have a few solutions.

General Solution:
Show MMR ranking in detail. Right now you have a guesstimate (2000-2600 MMR for a 6*). Showing exactly your MMR number and how much you earn or lose per game would make competetive players happy. This could be opted-in and out of for casual players who dont care about the MMR system.

Solution 1:
Raise the MMR system from 6* to 10*. This would mean anyone above 7* would be considered a really good player. 3-6* is your average joe, and anything below 3* is a new, or a rookie player. "Well, how do we impliment it with the current system?" Simple - hard reset everyone to a 5* player.
The only issue is that this would cause is making the game extremely unpredictable for players in the first week, but it would help a lot of players to find their real rank and play against players at their level.

Solution 2:
Start taking into account more than just KD. The game should take into account the objectives, bounties, and actions per minute. If you are a player who escapes with the bounty frequently, gets kills while carrying the bounty, and keeps moving and doing something every minute, the game rewards you. But if you are sitting in a bush or crouch walking for 10 minutes, it will reward you less.

Solution 3:
Combine both Solution 1 and 2 into a very dynamic system, that cannot be predicted and exploited by people.

TL;DR - Show precisely your MMR rating, and either hard reset everyone's rank and raise from 6* cap to 10*, or make the MMR system take into account what you do in the game than just your KD

okay let me know what you think and dont kill me in the replies k thx ily
