Dunno. I just started playing and it feels like alot of players are really bad at the aiming part of the game. Sure it could be the matchmaking, but still. Most new players coming from games like Tarkov (Sam and Aqua did quite the advertisment) will have a pretty smooth entry to the game. They are used to much better FPS players and just have to get used to the unique mechanics of the game. That being said, i enjoy the game alot.

#10 is the most annoying, especially when playing with randoms. when youre confident and pushing and picking off enemies but go down, ur team is still crouchwalking 50 meters away and not doing anything

[@goranbratos2097]

This happens once every 3 or so games for me when I'm playing with randoms. I get a pick, then I push in and get another kill, but get downed by the last guy in the process. Then I realise my teammates are still sitting just outside of the compound and basically letting the enemies rez each other, making it a 2v3 in the enemies' favor and losing us the fight 9 out of 10 times.

[@alliedanchor8864]

@@goranbratos2097 yeah the thing that makes us lose the fight a lot of the time is my teamates not pushing and the enemy team gets rezzed. Literally one person left and they're sitting in the next compound over.

[@happyjonn9242]

this happened to me yesterday, we had a 3v3 fight in a small area and downed 2 enemies leaving only one left, i ping and fight them and i lose. What are my team mates doing? both of them sitting in bushes being stealthy? why? they gave the other guy a chance to revive and we lost because of it.

"Deaths in hunt are seldom random" -> tell it to the fanatically fanning chain gun that headshotted me dozens of meters away. Pinnacle of randomnes.

[@badmechanics7760]

aaaaaand, as if that was not enough, your teammate was the one holding the chain gun

[@crazylasagna3576]

All of these are very true. However, if your teammate doesn't care about their KDA, you can actually use bad revives as info/distraction. I've done this a couple times and it's given my partner or me crucial info and/or a couple extra seconds which can win fights. Don't do this all the time though and +90% of the time you're better off just not reviving an exposed partner. Also, trick for gunslinger users. You can actually see if your gun is sticking through a wall. If you watch the light on your barrel you can see if it passes through a wall. Can be very handy.

[@Digganob590]

The last one definitely needs to be heard. I have seen to many random partners skulking in some corner of a building while a firefight is happening in the other end of it, apparently waiting for someone to just run blindly into their "trap" or something. Fight! The best opportunity you'll have to kill in Hunt isn't when you catch someone unawares around a corner with a shotgun, it's when your partner is currently fighting them!

[@mosthigh5700]

so true, especially when playing with randoms who have no clue about what theyre doing

[@Zer0ThePlagueDoc]

Things that kill me the most.. people knowing exactly where I'm hiding in ambush without ever making a noise as they approach and getting instantly headshot through a building.

[@4FSGaming]

Sometimes it only takes one step while crouched, players will here it and go straight for the wallbang. As for bushes, after enough hours you start to remember the colour palette of every part of the map, so even the slightest difference catches the attention.

[@slaughterface3654]

Being too far from cover, peeking held angles, not being able to aim. These are just a few of the main reasons I die.

[@sirminty8495]

For number 10, this is the optimal play. Especially when your opponent thinks you've been thrown into a corner. They think you'll back into it and be too scared to push back. Push. Back. Don't let them seize the initiative. Counter engage. If they rush you, be sure to be the one who turns the corner first. They won't be ready for you to make the first move, they'll think you've turned tail. I cannot tell you how many kills, even full teams I have turned a corner on with my knife to kill two or all three of them because they got bold and thought to rush carelessly confident. To win fights, you must be the one who seizes on any advantage. If you do that, you'll win.

[@MrSolamna]

Yup. I tend to main the bomb lance and this works out very well. People are usually hesitant to chase in the first place because you're using a medieval weapon that can OHKO and has the appropriate hitbox. So if you counter rush them you usually find them turning to find a better position on you or reviving a teammate because they expect you to skedaddle. haha swing swong your tactic was wrong

[@Milarbkh]

This happened to me recently. I was down to one bar fighting a duo and took cover behind a mound, the shotgun player hard pushed but didn't expect me to turn around and kill him. Will try it more often

[@jaakkohuotari316]

A small adjustment to #4 I'd like to make is to know when to rush someone throwing a grenade and when to back up. I often find myself around the maximum throw range of the nade and there running away is often the better alternative. The key really is either moving back or forth and knowing what to do in each situation. Going for new cover inside the throw range is what will get you killed.

[@HistoryMike86]

I can't tell you how many times I have had to tell my teammates (randos) to get up and keep moving in the fight or tell them to push. I'm not sure why. Once the guns start going off stealth is usually out the window unless you haven't been seen. Great list.

[@alliedanchor8864]

Yeah, I also see this a lot when sneaking up to compounds while the team inside is fighting a target. It almost never works since they can just see if you're in the compound lol

[@ethanpattison5623]

There’s one thing I can add here. Camping clues. The clue glows red and makes a VERY obvious sound when players are nearby. Just yesterday a friend and I wiped a team easily because they were sitting in these 2 outhouses right next to a clue. On top of that, one of them was using gunslinger so I saw their gun sticking out the outhouse which allowed me to line up my Sparks before the fight even started. Sometimes you may think you have the jump on a team when you really don’t.

[@detectivecolonel874]

An addendum to #9: If you play with Gunslinger controls, you can hold Q to set your weapon down like a Hunter player would. This lets you reduce your visual profile when you need to, without having to do it all the time.

[@bonehed1]

That wasn't possible when this video was made

[@Dalfurious]

Now there is an option with Gunslinger to auto-drop your gun in the settings.

[@Canadazoomeryt]

Big tip to new players: turn music off, use the Romero 77 in close quarters ALWAYS. Use a revolver at mid range, and don’t engage at long range. Romero 1 taps enemies at point blank range, and when using a single action revolver, you can fan the hammer if you have the character modifier.

[@JackJackKcajify]

wow actually a video with real proper hunt showdown tips. the bigger youtubers would never give good tips like this.

[@Dismal626]

For #9 there is a key bind to holster your weapon when using gunslinger. I believe it's holding X. This negates any downside from using it

Remembering "Wall Bangs" are a thing. This goes both way. I was in a shootout armed with Zorngeist, target had went behind a tree. In a split second I remembered the Long Guns can over-pen the trees (from all the times it had happened to me), I aimed were I figured his head was and fired. Boom, Headshot. He hadn't even crouched to throw off my aim.

[@error404usernamenotfound5]

I once was running on a ceeling of a house and knew under me is a player. I shot all of my rounds down there, on the metal roof. I used a small ammo gun. I don't think I have to say why none of the shots I took hit.

[@Ammuze11]

I don't know what it is, but I usually do pretty well in my fights and I make a fair amount of these mistakes. Out of everything, I think my biggest strength is my prying nature. I'll scope out routes, door mechanics, bear traps, AI placement and try to work out the best way to weaponize these things. I remember that I killed a 3 man team who had just entered the boss area while playing solo by turning on a nearby generator to bring AI closer to their position and cover my sounds, open all doors and check for cracks in the walls that I can crawl into and out of and nabbing traps while I am out of danger to set in popular boss kiting paths so that the enemy hunters step on them while running from the boss. I was able to turn it from a 3v1 into a mosh pit of dogs, fire zombies, the boss and almost nowhere to move for the enemy team until eventually they just died and were kind enough to kill most of the enemies for me. Oh, and also, bring the axe. I've gotten a stupid amount of use out of it to the point where I can go full games without ever pulling out my gun.

[@Tulkeleth]

Playing with randoms. Can't count the amount of times I've played with players that run around, make a lot of noise, draw players towards us, then hide during the gunfight, or rather "flank" by running in a straight line away from the fight (no joke I've been told that by a guy that left us fighting 2v3)

[@ericduan19]

Clearing sound traps/AI, or generally interacting with anything within a compound is literally the least "stealthy" way of playing. As you eliminates sound traps/interact with stuff, you'll always leave traces that others could tell that someone had been through here.

[@wicky7591]

Small trick regarding fanning that everyone shouldn’t forget. You can still aim. You don’t have to rely on RNG for your second shot. It is way more reliable to aim once you know your next shot will kill. And please stop shooting scopes weapons when you aren’t 100% confident you will kill your opponent. Unless you have a really good angle that flanks an enemy hunter team perfectly where you can get several shots out. You won’t get another opportunity.

[@wicky7591]

Oh and it saves ammo on fanning too since you don’t have to rely on RNG.

[@minivanmonkey]

I have seen a lot of hate for the Gunslinger control set, but if you hold down the quick swap (default q I believe) you lower your weapon. So the problems such as weapon jutting out or small fov etc, you can completely mitigate by holding q for 1 second.

#4 is one that gets me the most. I'm working on rushing them while they cook instead of running.

#5 is probly imo the most important on all of this when it comes to people who play with randoms. I personally don't mind working with randoms and new players as a prestige 16 but I usually will test their independence by suggesting to split up at the start of a match to get clues faster, this is usually my way of differentiating butt huggers and confident players.

The best 2 tips I can suggest is learn to hipfire and remember to use your gear. The amount of times I've got killed in a fight when I had a really easy way out is ridiculous.

[@schoenperkins8210]

Here’s another tip, weapons that compnsate for poor aiming, like shotguns or any weapon with fanning and levering have cons that outweigh the pros; like inconsistent damage or uncontrollable recoil

[@LeRoyt97]

I have trouble with positioning. I always feel like I'm in the wrong place that doesn't help my team mates, especially when attacking a compound. Either I'm too far away so I can't support my friends when they get into an ingagement, or I'm too close and we get ambushed. I just don't know where to go at any given time that would create an advantage for my team.

[@kristofmertens267]

Most common mistake imo, staying stationary for too long. Like it's been said in the video, shoot and relocate. if they push your "shot location", you already relocated and possibly are ready to throw in some nades or molotovs at your last location. Put yourself more in fights situations, so you get the feeling of battle rotations. it helped me a lot by playing solo in the beginning. Sure, I died a shitload of times, but that way you also learn not to depend on your team mates too much. Don't matter if you are a full squad if you can save your own ass in any situation... xD

[@maxchronicler]

Excellent video. Thanks.

[@Heinskitz]

Here's my 2 cents worth: 1. Keep moving, NEVER stay stationary. 2. Limit usage of highground/sniper positions. You can see everything, but everyone can see you. 3. If you're closely pursuing hunters and you have a shot, take the shot - just not out in the open if you can help it. (The amount of times I've inevitably died simply by not shooting and waiting for a 'better' opportunity...) 4. Standing res/loot/clue will often get you killed. Your head is much easier to hit. 5. Running in straight lines or other predictable movements. 6. Not assigning easy to use buttons for essential tools/consumables. When under pressure, fumbling around by mouse scrolling for your medkit or stims wastes crucial time that will often get you killed. 7. Not using separate jump and mount keys. It's all sweet to use the unified jump/mount key until you're in a serious fight and find yourself mounting a fence/box in front of the enemy when you meant to side-jump or repeatedly jumping like an idiot in front of a fence when you needed to mount.

[@Speedy2619]

Single Boss only: Dont be Team number #2. when you find your team on a single boss maps and the boss is banished coming right after as "Team 2" at the boss layer is qite dangerouse. The probabillity to get sandwiched between the boss team and team 3- team 4 is high. So you have 2 options play fast so your only enemy is the boss team, or rotate that you ensure team 3- team 4 are the first to engage the compound.

[@sinsix1361]

I don't disagree with any of this, but to offer a point in the other direction, I recommend everyone spend some time random duo queueing. It helped my game, a lot. You learn to play with many different styles of teammates. My core group all pretty much plays the same game, since we all came up together. Playing with the randos has forced me to adapt to their styles and opened up my perception of what players of different experience levels do in fights. Don't get me wrong, you will still have Captain Crouchwalk, sitting 93 meters away and watching as you fighting a duo at the boss lair. Those games are always going to happen. :)

The bullet "physics" are wonky af in this game, and some iron sights seem off. It needs a lot of attention imo as do these new "special" rounds that aren't really special or that useful so far as i've seen. Or they'll give a good buff then neuter something else. Guess the devs don't realize being afraid to make upgrades and limiting like that them is how you end up with a broken shitty unbalanced game.

Issue with number #5 having you team spread out will often allow a more coordinated team to pick each team member off one at a time and prevent revives

@@4FSGaming except 99% of the times I die when spread out is because I get into a gunfight with a whole team and can't shoot all three at once and I go down before any teammate can get a shot running, together and loosely is what keeps a team alive and able to take on other teams most effectively in my experience

Nice video. Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@wisewizard9552]

Thanks for a useful video. I wonder what your thoughts about peeking from two spots one after another?

[@4FSGaming]

Even that is much better, I had a situation today where I had a sniper scope and could only see one side of a piece of cover that an enemy was behind as a time, so as they alternated peek spots I only had a 50% chance of actually looking at the side they were peeking.

[@benbenben123ben]

I would say the two biggest things that get me killed in hunt is, number one: my aim number two partners not going loud when I go loud. The partners that just panic camp whenever gunshots go off. The teammates that are just way too passive.

[@grinchy956]

I will learn from this thank you. They will fear me.

[@aaroncathey627]

Can you explain those controller settings? The point about Gunslinger is interesting. I've seen opposing points of views. Would love to get an understanding of the differences.

[@4FSGaming]

Gunslinger locks you to a set FoV, while hunter allows you to have a wide FoV with gun down, and then partially narrow it by bringing the weapon to hipfire, or then zoom in with your sights. Gunslinger maps melee to an actual key/button, while hunter lets you use the same controls you use for shooting for aiming and releasing a melee attack. Unless you bind hunter melee to a thumb mouse button or a paddle on the controller, you generally have much more ability to move, turn, jump etc while holding charged melee while using hunter. Gunslinger means your weapon is always up, which means it prods through walls and gives away your position. Players who know what they are doing can notice the lighting change on their barrel and avoid this, but it gets new players using gunslinger killed a lot. There is an argument that if you are coming round a corner you can shoot faster in a panic moment with gunslinger because your weapon is in a default hipfire position. The thing is if you are probing a corner you would be in hiprfire with hunter anyway, and if you were unaware chances are you'd be sprinting, which negates the difference anyway. With practice you can go from weapon down to ADS in one smooth motion anyway, and not even see the hipfire crosshair come up. TL:DR = Hunter > Gunslinger for a range of reasons.....But if you are used to gunslinger because it is similar to other shooters you'll probably still do better with it unless you devote 20 hours to the switch. Just keep an eye on your barrel to make sure it's not going through walls.

[@grandmasterTrend73]

Good Tipps but all of it easier said than done 😉 I tried the hunter controls but somehow I can’t get comfortable with. Especially the fact that tools and consumables are also used as a melee weapon without pushing the other button first. It got me killed several times and it takes much longer when i quickly want to heal behind a tree.

[@unspoken657]

11# For shotgun users, be AGGRESSIVE! There is so many times when I choose to not take a shotgun and my teammates who has one stays inside a building in a corner waiting for the enemy while we try to kill the guy who has crown & king with rifles and pistols. I'm not calling myself a great player either but come on man!

[@Crow_Mauler_]

I'd love to agree with you. I'm a very aggressive shotgun main, but shotguns kinda suck. If you get the sneak and someone isn't facing you, or their shoulder is facing you, they won't die in any reasonably range. Another thing is that shotguns are pretty unreliable. Console makes it even harder for shotguns, considering the fact you'll have to make flicks and jump around so you don't get one shot. I wish shotguns could consistently 1 shot, but because they can't, we've got to move around as much as possible, sometimes that makes us miss our shots. Of course, it wouldn't really matter because we'd still do 26 damage everytime.

Top 10 things that kill me in Hunt 1. Getting headshot while running in the open 2. Getting shot in the head when crouching 3. Getting headshot when I clean the area 4. Getting headshot when I am camping in the bush 5. Getting headshot when I jump over the fence 6. Getting headshot when I attack people from the back, so they turn around and instantly kill me 7. Getting headshot through the wall when I sit in a safe place and don't move so enemies won't hear me 8. Getting headshot from a friend that decide to look at the exact same window frame. 9. Getting headshot with a sniper form about 100 meters away 10. Getting headshot with a pistol on small bullets from about 100 meters away when the person can see about 1 pixel of you Honourable mentions: Getting headshot when I spawn and make 5 steps. Getting headshot when I peak small hole for the first time. Getting headshot when I am already around the solid wall but the game just don't really care.

Hi 4FS, I'm extremely paranoid about missing sound cues so I play with my headphones cranked all the way up. But I think it's making my tinnitus worse. How do you have your sound set up to maximise your awareness?

[@4FSGaming]

It's not so much about loudness, but time spent in the soundscape. After a lot of hours playing you filter out all the environmental ambience and only react to sounds related to hunter actions, like the out of place footstep or distant aggravation of AI.

@@lonestarbob5519 To be fair though, I'm just as often the first one to die because I have the least amount of patience and I like to play high risk, high reward.

[@lonestarbob5519]

@@Ben-kz2km i feel that. And sometimes a crouching chad/hidden rat combo works great. I have footage on my channel of this. My rat instincts often override a good play though and it's a habit i'm breaking in this game. But if you had another chad type you could get some good steamrolls going. I've found the bumrush works great in this game rather you're stab happy like me or a shotty main or like to lever fools down with the winfield or such. the game has a great basis, offers much challenge and fun plus multiple playstyles. it just needs some polishing by the devs with a few qol updates for new players to make the game less gatekeep-y for them versus high level legacy players/founders and to improve a little on a few weapons and new ammos types with some tweaks and this game will be aces.

Nr 7 sounds more like an opinion than a actual guidance. I personally never camped an exit bc I actually like to play in my games rather than stare at some grass for 25 mins just to have 1 min of action. That beeing said from a chance of success POV this is no argument - the winning team might be stacked up, but they might just as well be beaten up depending on how rough the fighting was. The only real disadvantage is that you go against the champion squad that is most likely pumped up on adrenaline, has high moral is just "in the zone" while you've been doing nothing for 20 mins and just waited for this moment. Other than that there is no disadvantage over fighting in the boss compound except for - well missing out on the most fun parts of the game

[@XShrike0]

It would be nice if he went into more about the Gunslinger control problems. I did some searching and it sounds like it is a playing with a controller issue. Is it a M&K issue?

Extract camping is bad, because you only block 1 out of 3 exits and you will most likely lose the bounty in 2 of 3 cases and in the last remaining case you will have a bad positioning with little space to move.

for anyone new to the game, just camp inside the boss lair for 60 minutes with traps and shotguns, that won't get you killed

Been using Gunslinger since the beginning. I definitely learned to be aware of my gun sticking out, but are there any other downsides to this? Now I'm curious

[@4FSGaming]

It limits your field of view because you don't have access to the three view states, only two. It also gives you less control over using melee, unless you have the melee command bound to a mouse button then you can still move and evade while holding a charged attack.

[@jefficus_9351]

I'd love to stay further away from my team mates, but no matter how much i say it, the little goblins are always crouch walking 2 ft behind me, especially during fights.
