Playing Hunt is the closest I’ll ever get to running a Marathon…

[@FDM55]

Hahahahha😂

[@ThereCanOnlyBe1Wil]

What about Bungie's Marathon

[@amiraziz2331]

Commentary at the intro is appreciated

[@anthemdurr5644]

I love this game to death - but I've recently been diagnosed with macular hole forming in my eyes, which really inhibits the ability for my eyes to focus and create a clear, sharp image. I will never be good at this game because of that :(

[@Borg-nh8ry]

that sucks sorry. But, take solace in the fact that the majority of people are just bad naturally with no handicap and you might be able to cater your playstyle- use a low FOV and close range weapons so you have an easier time seeing things. this games pretty casual i have faith you can have fun still :)

[@DiCapraLeo]

Use deadeye with 100 fov and camp, you might get to 5 stars

[@CorteZz0n]

Даже так ты будешь довольно неплохо играть, нужно лишь разработать свой стиль. CQC наше все

[@sleepwellmychild]

I'm sorry man 😔 looks like shotguns are your bread and butter 😎 rise up, dead man.

[@akumaMMII]

11:48 this Romero Shorty NON Slug Oneshot Wallbang at 10m is just criminal.

[@amiraziz2331]

Why not iron eye? you gain much better rate of fire with that, or just you didnt have enough traits points?

[@clara5767]

i lost how every hunt showdown youtuber sound the same

[@houskacmaxkalbovic2159]

Marathon easily became my favourite gun in the game. It just feels more consistent. I guess its due to the range buff compact and medium ammo got.

[@FOGSHIE]

Compact got a range buff?

[@houskacmaxkalbovic2159]

@@FOGSHIE This is what the patch notes says ,,Damage falloff has been adjusted, retaining more damage over distance than previously in most cases including shotguns, although the adjustment to shotguns isn’t as large as the increase to other firearms." So Im guessing it works for the compact as well because it feels much more consistent after the update.

[@CorenseDG]

1:44 I swear to God I'm one of the guys on that team you're shooting at ! I was playing with a Lebel 1886, I have rarely seen such a strong player in my 3000 hours of play ! GG 🤠

[@logictom7254]

I felt that excited squeak with the bornheim snipe so much xD Nice shooting, even with needing all your ammo for that battle

[@Propimpslap]

The marathon with hv carried me to 6 stars for the first time in my 700 hours last week. It is def my favorite gun at the moment.

[@KillerShock8]

Best compact ammo gun will always be my beloved Winnie bayonet. Hella bullets, bayonet for bosses & surprise players, great iron sights, and levering. You don’t even need a secondary but with hand crossbow it fucking slaps

[@kingkracker1998]

try marathon FMJ dual Lamat FMJ but leave it in shotgun mode. SO MUCH FUN

[@Swarleyy]

Even without the high velocity ammo, this weapon is nuts

[@Eliathor]

bring the skins for the marathon and mako rifle in the store!!! a lot of people took a break from the game before the big patch and now we are punished for it. it is a very bad buisness model. sure give the ative players things for free, but dont punish people with weapon or hunter skins that became uniqe due to playing at a certian time..... 1k hour hunt player......

[@chiefbeef6047]

makes me wish i played last season to get the marathon skin :(

[@devinw2984]

25:17 fire is a paid actor

[@sleepwellmychild]

Nothing can separate me from my Winnie swift.

[@kingkracker1998]

not doing any damage with those long range body shots. high V im not a fan of anymore. im also good with slower bullet speeds. so that helps me alot. for what ever reason im fairly good at bullet drop too, maybe cuase i played PUBG b4 HUNT. i just see it lol, same for the leads

[@easy3dsmax]

feels like last jump out of the window wasn't part of the plan)

[@fluid8888]

Ok marathon is cool and fun, I'm a fan... BUT GIVE ME BACK MY OFFICER CRYTEK!

[@392Jason]

Can you use the infantry rifle please

[@tobybll]

Marathon, Drilling and Krag my holy trinity

[@velocityfragz_5840]

I been using the gun the last week and a half out of giving it a try to change things up. Fuck me, its not only good for budget loadouts - But I've been mopping people left and right with this weapon whether its a duel or ambush. Love it

[@S1SLIC]

hornet what can I say: You play this game like a god. Simply brilliant. I'll give you a like and a subscription for that. Greetings, SLIC

[@jdwylde7]

The new carbine is the best overall weapon in the game right now. Came into the game balanced and is super nice to play with.

[@Gawlick]

Maraton is great fun, but i like Winfield a little more. Well I guess Ranger now lol. Or Infantry Bayonet or whatever its name now is

[@kingkracker1998]

i feel likes there too much cover on the map to not run FMJ with compact ammo. im a hitting alot of body shots and i need to be able to wall bang to follow up

[@daemonfifield1242]

ive been running marathon high velo almost every match and its by far my favourite gun in the game now even tho i maybe used it 5 times in total before 1896

[@goodskele7241]

dude that clip at la plata, I was wondering who tf was headshotting everybody and was scared af (I was bounty carrier that traded with you); GG bro, great video again :D

[@CorenseDG]

Hi I was in the game too ! I'm the guy here 7:39

[@MrDaddyBuff]

Definitely gonna try this out later. Might not have as much success as you lol but I'll still give it a shot.

[@pascalb.8949]

Why is it possible to watch your videos in 4k when you play on FullHD?

[@SuperLostcar]

Love the Videos !!!

[@DamianJoseph661]

Hellborn r34? 😭😭

[@filip380PL]

I'm glad you included your dpi in the description. I'm gonna steal that now, thanks :)

[@JayesDunn]

Awesome ! :)

[@elissabranch8656]

hi, wondering which vod/day on twitch this is pulled from?

[@Honerkamp]

i could never play this gun, the iron sights bother me too much

[@Dorkbay]

If i snap my fingers... You will forget that they ever nerfed high velo ammo

[@NoMusicTheory]

I think you are actually worse with a scope than with irons.

[@Riggo525]

You have my luck with AI... lol nice video man!

[@yeetyeet6196]

unrelated to the vid, but they really gotta change the prices of some of these guns, cause a price tag of 345 is not really spooking anyone away anymore. I’m see people running krag+dual borheims without any concern of cost, because of the nothing-burger that is the games economy.

[@limonero8757]

Yeah, the game's economy is kind of a joke. That's why balancing weapons around their price is useless tbh.

[@BrutusFanboy12345]

HORNET DOESN'T LIKE TALKING ABOUT THE OFFICER.

[@amauriherrera6022]

Sleeper loads from old Hunt are now strong in new Hunt

[@0011eddy]

I'd like to see u use the martini iron side with HV

[@IDemoAlone]

i really liked the comments style at intro

[@oOxtazeOo]

aha aha aha... 9:52 it's me... So fun im 3-4 MMR ... matchmaking is so bulshit...

[@hornetlul]

Your teammates were 6* , do you expect to go against 2* players when u queue together?

[@revelae]

minimum damage is so weird

[@GuardianMehmed]

[@rowanhanes1151]

Hey hornet, I’ve been watching your videos and playing hunt for years but I still struggle with aim. I see your dpi is 800, what is your in game sensitivity? Much love as always

[@hornetlul]

@@rowanhanes1151 description!

[@Lost3mber]

my guy, instead of trying to copy someone else’s set up that they’ve been running for literal years, play wtv makes you feel the most comfortable. If the problem is aiming, it might sound stupid but that’s mostly a « skill issue ». I’m not saying you’re bad at the game, it’s just that your aim won’t become god tier just because you change your sensitivity. Just play the game more and learn how bullet velocity works, that’s how i got a lot better at the game :)

[@darkcartman2826]

You should test which speed is best for you. Dpi isnt a thing that you can just copy and then youre as good as hornet. Everyone needs to find his personal sweet spot for it. I would suggest you try different dpi settings and go to the Shooting range, then choose a target a farer away and try to flick und shot at it as fast as possible. If you train and adjust your dpi with it so that you can hit the target most of the time you found good dpi for you. If you stop before it increase dpi, if you move past it often just lower it. And if you dont wanna do that there is an game on steam (should be free), that just lets you train your aim. So you can practice there (its better because you have to hit moving targets) and adjust your dpi while doing it. If you see that your aim increases just adjust your dpi more and more until it gets worse, then you found your sweet spot

[@yokan0547]

nice ending

🔥👍🙌

[@mohnkuchenzentrale]

Tried the Marathon for the first time since the introduction. And I am blown away by its precision and performance! I use a romero as a sidearm and dragonbreath as 2nd ammo. I call it: Royale with cheese.

[@amememachine8974]

I miss the old days with no custom ammo, man

[@whatnamecanipick709]

Nah it was boring.

[@1_f1N_1]

Why? One of the best changes to the game imo

[@woox4930]

Same

[@c2wgamingyt367]

Naw custom ammo was needed
