Rachta's Academy [#2] - How to Wallbang [Hunt: Showdown]

alright listen, when you get into a fight, you get nervous, don't get nervous, get excited

[@ForTodayisawesome]

What you don’t see is the countless shots and effort he takes going for wallbangs. Check out his stream and you can clearly see the efforts and risks he takes, not just highlights. Take the shots and you’ll eventually get the results.

Good way to practice wallbangs - load into training mode, sprint around and trigger a bunch of zombies, run inside, close all the doors. Now try to wall bang them shooting at the sounds you hear

[@D34DHUNT3R1]

Wallbanging is such a great thing to get into the habit of doing. Even if your shots don't hit, chances are you might scare/force the person out of position or stop them from camping.

[@grafknusprig6775]

I like how you keep the death in your videos. Everything seems more natural and you can see that you just have to try it.

[@MinusStatue11]

Dude.. I'm so embarrassed to admit I had no idea about the ping technique lol I've seen solos do it, and wondered why, but never pursued for an answer. This is about to be a game changer I can already feel it lol thank you Rachta.

[@shamkraffl6050]

People in videos and streams: I hear him crouch walking Me: i yet have to hear that

[@BallBagDonnie]

If you have your game loud enough and the player is close enough it’s relatively easy to hear crouch walking

[@GeneralWeak]

Really nice video. I will use the ping trick the next time I play. I think that the most difficult thing for the wallbang is to decide if it is better to take the shot and to expose yourself or to go stealth.

[@lonestarbob5519]

@@BlackWolf9988 i'm about 250ish hours and same experience. I have a couple sus clips i'm saving for a video just to post and see if anyone else ever has these things happen/has an answer, but nothing glaring like i have saw where people died across the map while being shot through the ground and stuff. Most of my complaints about the game are in the weapons, and mostly their sights. But this community don't exactly handle complaints well so i'll stay quiet here. Overall: i enjoy the game and feel it's getting better with the new patches. It may not be a game i play all the time but it's a game that, unless it really goes tits up, i will always play. Which is NOT something i say about many video games.

[@JamisonMarvel]

Bit of correction on the advanced settings for audio. Choose the highest bitrate (24 or 32, if its 16 you need an upgrade) and then select 48000hz if you're setting this primarily for games, 44100hz for music. If you go any higher Windows might muddle your sound as 48000hz is what most movies and games use, while almost all music is in 44100hz. Most probably wont have the option to go higher, but just in case.

[@flowmah5317]

Nice vid, this is a subject that is not discussed enough. An excellent vid for intermediate/advanced players, i like it.

[@Shoopsta]

Sooo, I knew most of the stuff in your video, but when I checked my Audio settings I noticed I was using my really quite good headset with the second worst quality setting.... I turned it up quite bit, will be interesting if I notice a difference ^^

[@Dave5gun]

Probably not, the sounds in Hunt are 44100Hz 16bit

[@Shoopsta]

[@ZaneofAustin]

yo that ping trick is amazing ty, i've been struggling a way to practice, other than grunts, which aren't really good for their static movements

[@jedics1]

Audio in Hunt is better than any game I have ever played, they should win some kind of award for it but going by the small player base it will remain completely underrated much like its graphics with its muted more realistic colours rather than trying to impress the kiddies with the brightest of everything. I only wish their antialiasing was better, while that soft look gives it a cinematic feel It is a shooter and I can't bare to look at Hunt without some sharpening in reshade now.

[@rafaelbald6711]

They won.

[@rafaelbald6711]

Jesus, I can't adjust the anti-aliasing. Either everything is blurry or everything is shaky.

@@RachtaZ It's a joke, I seem to have an inflated head in video games and catch bullets from weird angles, I was notorious in Mount and Blade warband: Napoleonic wars for catching inaccurate musket rounds in the face at 300 yards.

[@hold-my-kompot]

Great series, keep it up!

[@JackJackKcajify]

This video is 2 years old, and i havent checked patch notes, but for me, with my Hyper X Cloud ll (2) headset, i need to use 7.1 surround. If i dont use 7.1, i cant pinpoint the direction of footsteps or noises. I dont know if they are behind me to the left or the right. or sometimes a frontal sound is actually sounding from behind. But with 7.1, the sounds are pinpoint and can be reliably used. I can hear where they are moving, and theres no debate in my mind if its behind me or in front of me ( a sound ). So imo, definetely use 7.1 surround as of 2022.

[@einstein9063]

[@quasimemo3463]

@@RachtaZ thx for information

[@Flohhupper]

5.1 and 7.1 are literally just marketing buzzwords. You DON'T need them in ANY game. Stereo is all you need. You won't be able to "hear the position" any better with 5.1 or 7.1. People who say that or assume that it works like that cause "well more speakers duh" are just wrong about it or don't know any better. You are better off asking people who do know how audio works and they'll all tell you the same. It's bs.

I have the same headset as you, so I am assuming you have the same audio controller that came with the headset as well, so you're telling me that if I have 7.1 audio off as per the controller, the audio will be more accurate? Could you just clear this up for me? Thanks!

[@fxkr8091]

HI Rachta, do you use the USB control thingy that comes with the HyperX Cloud II? Or is it plugged directly into your motherboard, or a special soundcard even? I also think that other noises (open window, loud computer) can make a difference. Got some more tips for that?

[@RachtaZ]

Its just plugged into USB port I see, dont think that matters. Also my volume is 50 in windows and 60 in game. Those headphones can really cover outside audio

[@khuziplays5651]

I have good headphones but the audio is quite low for stereo , i can't hear anything normally unless i change into 5.1 , i have also noticed that while steroe sounds more immersive , it is quite wrong when taking into account the spatial distance from something. For example i can hear a grunt behind me but he sounds closer than he actually is. Whereas with 5.1 settings , i can hear it accurately as per the distance but hard to hear sounds even remotely 5 meters away from you with clarity. there any alternative or fix for this ? Besides getting a better headphones

The sound in hunt is in my opinion very good for a game, but not realistic. It would be cool if they could calculate real reflections and everything, like raytracing, just for sound. but i think it would be way too much work to implement.

[@sandercohen5543]

Should’ve wallbanged the chain pistol at the end ;)

[@arcane_peasant6416]

What I do not like about the sound design is that to hear further sounds better you amp the volume, but then everything thats close is deafening , like scrap screams so loud you can't hear anything at all, but if you lower the volume to actual preserve your ears, people just sneak up on you, idk, must be my headset or something ;s I also do not have an option in audio settings to set it to stereo only 7.1, it was really bad but with logitech sofware i can enable DTS and it makes sounds atleast distinguishable :(

[@ManicAfterShock]

You don't need to set it to 7.1 or 5.1, just direct stereo input. The game was designed with stereo headphones as the target hardware.
