The Maynard Sniper is Insane

[@MoreImbaThanYou]

Me, when I stand between 3 enemy teams: "Oh shit oh shitohshitohshit" Hornet between 3 enemy teams: "Excellent, now I can attack in any direction."

What a madlad, going into Bounty Clash with a sniper

[@Peterd0e]

Maybe not all people are damn retards and spamming free hunters with romero shotguns.

[@iterationfackshet1990]

Tbh the Maynard sniper does really well in close quarters, especially with dumdum rounds. Most people can’t heal before the bleeding kills them and it’s got a very small amount of spread.

[@chirt7286]

[@2lazy4nick]

[@EdserXD21]

8:41 Wait, what??? So this whole time it wasn't just me??

[@_Kremit]

The idea of a two part reload without making it special ammo is kinda insane from a realism standpoint. You wanna tell me that the Maynard uses the exact same ammo as the vetterli while having a wildly different reload and firing mechanism? Why use a percussion cap when you fire full cartridges. The springfield at least got a realisticly used modification with the trapdoor mechanism. Or am I missing something? Just a small nitpick

[@metroidhunter2861]

As long as you reload cancel the animation, the firing cap never comes into play 😎 jk that’s a very interesting point. I wonder if Crytek considered that

[@KobraKai69]

Same reason as you somehow can stack Obrez and Lebel bullets, or Martini and Sparks.

[@shredgordon3240]

Pretty sure the vetterli is also rimfire, while most of the other medium ammo guns are centerfire. IMHO the game would be worse if it went down the super hard-core rout like tarkov.

[@jare7134]

its powerful but not that powerful like dolch and nitro, from a balancing standpoint its best to keep it as regular ammo than special.

[@misterio3678]

Nagant revolvers should also be special ammo then, it even looks like a different model ingame, but you can load it with your winfield ammo. Makes no sense but oh well.

[@greyaye8565]

9:00 what you're describing is usually called ghosting. When certain keypresses are ignored because other ones are occurring at that moment. If you already have a fully ghostproof keyboard, then there's something else wrong lol

[@kinpotato3418]

[@9-b_b-9]

The new "Shotguns Only" gamemode is really fun!

[@hextech3161]

SUREFOOT IS STILL BROKEN. When you pledge to the wilderness pack and get surefoot it is bugged and has been the whole two weeks the event has been going. If you pledge and get that pact then crouch. Just hold W while ADS and your sights will not be aligned. Probably due to the increased movement speed when crouched, the kicker is that it persists if you decide to stand up. Funny enough when you crouch again the bug seemingly toggles itself off but now you don’t get the increased crouch movement speed, once again upon crouching another time you will now be unable to move forward and aid with any considerable accuracy. Pressing A or D while moving forward significantly reduces the effect and shots are much easier to hit but when you are holding W only it is basically impossible to hit anything beyond 5M away. If you really want to see how terrible this glitch is go to the shooting range with the nitro. It’s hilarious to see 😅 also it seems the longer the gun is the more out of line the shot is placed. This glitch killed me so many time before I realized what was happening. I Shift+W all the time and I think I have pretty snappy aim but I was not hitting any shots, I also only ran Surefoot

[@3X73RM]

I feel like the Maynard realistically should be Special ammo, since it’s percussion cap, not rim or center fire cartridge :P

[@neko6804]

They made it so just for balance, to do a longer reload animation, and also it's really satisfying for me for some reason that we finally get weapon that reloads like this

[@BRY4ND112]

hey hornet i personally like the maynard sniper really much but i tryed high velocity rounds in and had a feeling that with that the gun feeled weird or more inaccurate would u recommend normal bullets/dum dum or rather high velocity ?

[@hornetlul]

[@szokecsabadaniel3217]

The input not registering must be a bug. You are not alone with this... only in Hunt 😢

[@Xamothth]

Why play this over a sparkz ? Genuine question !

[@Bebop_Bun]

less bullet drop at distance.

[@DamianJoseph661]

Dumdum ammo

[@shredgordon3240]

The only reason I see to play this is dumbdum. Sparks has more damage, centennial has a faster bullet, and Winfield has a better drop range.

[@Bao598]

It depends on your playstile, this one have huge close up potential as it can 1 tap hunters in the chest with dum-dum ammo, and with HV ammo you have 180 meters of bullet drop with 660 m/s so it can work in every scenario, the only flaw this one have is the reload, 5s is way too much for 1 shot but i dont dislike it to be honest

[@DamianJoseph661]

@@Bao598 I use the Maynard a lot now over the Sparks and the extra 1s is hardly noticeable. If you use the Sparks a lot, the Maynard reload won't bother you a single bit

[@pd6335]

Faster reload, different ammo types. It's still good.

[@PSpencer]

something's gotta be the cheapest gun in the game

[@alexanderdenison2950]

Maynard doesn't really replace the Springfield because you have to have the sniper scope which makes mid range engagements awkward and tough. If there was any gun that made the Springfield obsolete, it was the frankly insane decision to give the centennial dum dum imo

[@RexVergstrong]

@@alexanderdenison2950 Not really since shooting from the hip with the Maynard has some of the best accuracy.

Idk bout the 5 sec reload. Why cant they fix the sparks sniper instead?

[@_Kremit]

What is currently broken about the Sparks? Is there a bug with it?

[@vers-s7s]

they should give the sparks a marksman

[@freddie9705]

I do get the impression that the Maynard is an effort to fill the niche that the Sparks Sniper used to fill. The Sparks did get unfairly shafted by the ammo type changes imo, at least as a sniper's rifle. On the other hand, I'm glad that they're leaning towards obsolete weapons like this rather than adding more cutting-edge military bolt-action rifles to compete with the mosin.

[@darkcartman2826]

You can just add 2 different kinds of ammo like with martini, sparks and other 1 shot rifles

[@rowanhanes1151]

Nah, just an ammunition switch

[@JaredAF]

Wait so you load a percussion cap even though it appears to be converted to metallic cartridges... My second question is why are they adding stupid ancient stuff like this instead of models actually used in the 1890s. Where is the 1896 Mauser rifle? This would be like using a Lebel in Call of Duty 2, really worse than that because of how quickly the technology was developing in the late 1800s and how quickly economies and economies of scale were growing.

[@kiume203]

tbh i think its mostly an oversight. Crytek seems reasonably competent when it comes to guns, specially since they have to actually look into what they're adding, and not buy airsoft replicas and just model it in

[@nikm9188]

The maynard irl uses a metallic cartridge and a percussion cap separately. This rifle was designed during the civil war when metallic cartridges were in their infancy

[@JaredAF]

@@nikm9188 It appears you're correct. Doesn't change my opinion that they spend way too much time and effort adding ancient firearms when they should be focusing on stuff from the 1870s-1890s.

[@spaghett5531]

Personally I like them adding niche and unknown gun tech rather than another bolt action long ammo rifle. I think hunts at its best when it gets imaginative with its firearms and takes creative liberty, making things like the bomb lance/launcher and the makeshift mods like the alamo/ironside (i know those have some basis in reality though)

[@JaredAF]

@@spaghett5531 Counter Strike is a game that doesn't suffer from everyone using the same 3 rifles once you're past a certain round. The new game mode is a step in the right direction but they somehow managed to disincentivize playing it with how little money you make and the likelihood of dying.

[@activeentropy]

The only thing I dislike about the meynard is the reload, you should put the casing in before the cap. Not the cap first. Makes no sense to put the cap on first. It's honestly a small nitpick but it just feels wrong.

[@OhBoy235]

Does the original gun actually use brass cases AND caps? ive never heard of something like that shouldnt it be paper cardridges?

[@aaronstevens82]

@@OhBoy235 A lot of the guns at this point still used paper cartridges, but it is easier to animate brass cases, and it "sounds cooler" with that fwip and clink sound brass makes. I don't sweat the small stuff, the game isn't a historical simulator, it is a fantasy video game.

@@OhBoy235 the gun in real life, used in the American Civil War, used brass cartridges without an integral percussion cap.
