[@pimpsterpidgeon4502]

Also another tip for separating your jumo and vault buttons is if you are reloading, vaulting cancels the animation and restarts it, so very bad for partial weapons, but when you jump you continue your reload like normal which gives such a massive difference.

[@stonecult182]

Effect Quality OFF makes a big difference. Especially if you have to fight while facing the sun. Low, medium and high will burn your eyes while OFF allowing you to see way more clearly.

[@AsBusiness-jm1rb]

i dont know if its just me it still hurts at off

[@MrLOLFRATZE]

On off, the Sunlight doesnt Affect it

[@addfuture]

But setting it to high makes it much easier to see while inside buildings, I think high would be the best setting for most fights.

[@pabolthehoe5121]

If any of the fellow PC gunslinger users stumble on this comment. You can actually lower your weapon for stealth by holding "Q" for a second (default), aim will be instant ADS from lowered state. weapon will return back to ready state after ADS or by holding "Q" again for a second.

[@FerretOverlord]

@@jfd4706 You'd think, right? But it 100% made a difference. As far as I can tell, it's not a placebo effect, as I can now trace straight lines and my precision is absurdly better

[@SirKickz]

Man just turning down antialiasing, setting object quality to medium, and cranking up the gamma a little bit was an absolute game changer for me. For almost my entire time in Hunt, I couldn't shake this feeling like it was way to easy for hunters to become essentially invisible, almost without trying. I would frequently die because I would peak a corner and literally stare directly at a hunter and not see them because of how the environment would mask their outline, even at close range. Bushwookies would kill me so often because even if I had a decent idea of where they were hiding, I just couldn't spot them unless they moved. Now it's like...yeah sometimes I fail to see a hunter but at least now it's because they actually put effort into finding a good hiding spot, instead of just being somewhere in the general vicinity of a bush.

[@slipperysoap-bob]

I have this problem too. Hunters are invisible unless they move or shoot. Would you kindly mention your precise anti aliasing and gamma settings?

[@SirKickz]

​@@slipperysoap-bob Gamma is at 1.42 and AA is set to SMAA1x. Object quality is at Medium. Those were the settings that made a pretty big difference. I could probably make hunters even more visible by maxing out the Gamma and turning my texture and shadows quality down, but for me, personally, that would ruin the immersion too much.

[@GwynoftheMist]

Separating your stopping bleed etc and interact buttons are also super handy. Sometimes cranking a door or resing teammates is better than patching a tiny light bleed, and vice versa. More control is good.

[@amoineau]

Yes ! After dying several times from heavy bleed or burn because my hunter decided to do something else, or swapping your current weapon midfight to something terrible because you tried bandaging, made me change that option !

[@hexen4935]

Just turn your head somewhere else here is the solution 😂

[@Zenturio331]

this happened to me twice in 1200 Hours. It really isnt a big deal

[@GwynoftheMist]

@Zenturio331 yah I still have t gotten around to changing it lmaoo

[@Phoenix-fo6ez]

a very nice option wich for me is very useful is to change the stop bleeding/burning prompt to a different bind than the standard interact butten. otherwise its very annoying if you want to stop bleed and just keep on picking random shit up

Accidentally revived a teammate inside of barbed wire trap instead of stopping bleed, not ideal.

[@thebreakfastfactory]

One setting I have found makes a nice difference for this game is turning on: Nvidia control panel -> Transparent texture antialising. For me this helps a bit with the blurry shadows when looking between leaves etc and seems to not affect performance too much

BTW there is a hidden Graphics Setting that you can activate if you type "+sys_spec = 4" into the startup-option of Steam. It will put all setting to "custom" but is essentially a "ultra hight" setting. but following the premise of this video i will probably not be the best pvp setting =)

[@Sadeyr]

You mention that texture quality at medium or high affects how hunters look, and that later testing showed that post-processing actually helps with seeing hunters. Would you recommend nudging them up a little higher than the PvP settings portion, or do you think the benefits of the lower settings outweight that?

[@skyrimLEGION]

What's your mouse DPI if you don't mind my asking?

[@yeru2480]

in another video he mentioned he's using 700 DPI, so i'm assuming thats still the case

[@SAGUI_KILLER]

You should definitely bind another key to stop bleeding/fire (I use "G"). Because if you get shot with an X-bow and survive, and then try to stop the bleeding while standing near a door, I feel sorry for you...

Thank U!!! I’m really really thankful for this video. I upgraded my gpu and bought a bigger monitor, and suddenly everything felt blurry to a point where I got motion sick. I was struggling with this almost to the point where I stopped playing. Until u mentioned that anti aliasing makes the game blurry. I changed that setting, and oh my what a difference! So thank u again!

[@EpicGamingGuruReal]

Had these similar settings for awhile. Makes a huge difference while looking at bushes and trees for hunters. Wish hunt would let you customize the reticle while shoulder aiming would make things more interesting

[@TheKirik71]

Btw If your gpu is beefy enough you can turn resolution in hunt to 4k or qhd even with 1080p monitor with dsr (or vsr if amd). I was skeptical about the result of that but I was just blown away.. It's like I was blind and now I can see again (straight through wood walls and ceilings) If you do this don't forget to turn AA in settings off and set filtering to x16

[@bongit4204]

I never knew or really understood how all of those things within the AMD app but you changed my life!! Thanks man

[@AresCarriess]

@TheKirik71, sorry, but what is DSR? and how exactly do you use it to change the resolution? I have an i9 13900k, and a 4080ti, but a 1080p monitor, thanks in advance for your reply!

[@FlipTheFlapjack]

I havta admit i never seperated the vault and jump keys from your earlier videos... then i had a fight and tried jump shooting at Iron Works, and my dummy hunter jumped over the railing and landed infront of an entire trio.... changed the setting right away! Its not as hard to get used to as you'd think, I use ALT though instead of V (:

[@Anselm-Paul]

Would you recommend to turn Vsync on or off?

[@Str8reapin]

are you using a lower dpi ratcha ? curious what your settings are

[@007ShaolinMonk]

How did I achieve 5 stars? 1. Play chill (i played while being high) and don't care about anything 2. Prepare to lose first 2-3 matches. It's okay since you are not warmed-up. Don't expect to be the best fat ass out there. 3. Play whatever settings you PC can squeeze out of this juicy Crytech game. You did not buy that monster of a PC to play low settings. This game is made by the same company that made the Crysis, aka game that demands hardware. Stop flaming, be chill and try to get a nice long shootout. If the game was nice, dying there isn't that bad.

[@ogiwanshinobi380]

Hey RatchtaZ thanks alot first of all. But one question. why didnt you mention fps limiter and if we should use vync or gync? are you using them for example. THanks alot

[@maltea1139]

Are the Settings for your weapon sensitivity the ones you actually use ?

[@michalzlotek]

What would you suggest for the melee bind?

[@ohmyme13]

Advanced Settings for me: even though the "Use 2 Pass" options say that they give more perfomance when off, actually give me 10 fps boost when on. I have no idea why, even after reinstalling the game that's how it is.

[@RachtaZ]

What are your specs? Ive been told by devs it could affect lower end systems

[@mikolajmrz]

same here. 3700X CPU and RX590 GPU and I get a good 10fps boost with the two pass options on.

[@RazeAndJadith]

@@RachtaZ the fps boost on the 2 pass settings are a thing but it seems kinda random what hardware gets the boost. I just tell everyone to leave them on just to be safe since there doesn't seem to be a downside to having them on. Also, anisotropic filtering is actually the clarity of the ground textures at distance. so if you play at higher resolutions you will notice the ground textures looking sharper further away with 16x. At 1440p you can see the difference but at 1080 you can't really see it.

[@tiesvdv]

I watched your old tutorial 2 days ago, so happy you made a new version

[@leslie7988]

[@PeasantUnit]

2 pass rendering scene makes objects render instantenously in front of you, which I find quite jarring. Turning it off makes them "fade-in"

[@EmilyRose0]

the "2 Pass" settings theoretically should cost performance BUT they actually gain performance for some low and mid level hardware, I have seen people on the forums talk about it. Why would you recommend it all of if you cant even measure a difference? Makes zero sense, and you with your 4090 should for sure toggle all but the surface opti on. But generally I would recommend tessellation off and 2 pass on.

That's only the case with the TX choices since they are temporal variants. Just use smaa 1x and you'll be just as clear with slightly less jaggies.

[@nates9778]

Anti-Aliasing blurs in general, not really when you move the camera. But yeah I find AA off easier because the snappy motion of jaggies makes it easier to see hunter movement.

[@RazeAndJadith]

[@Wizbrokun]

Applying image sharpening through the Nvidia or AMD control panels helps offset the blurriness of SMAA 1TX and 2TX while you keep the benefits of anti aliasing.

[@paft]

Not really because they cause a strange motion blur anyway.

[@RazeAndJadith]

tx variants are temporal and will naturally always cause some blurring because it uses multiple frames to ease out the jaggies.
