ULTIMATE SOLO GUIDE in Hunt: Showdown 1896 | EP. 2

[@NOAURATV]

What can I make better in these videos? 🤔 Also I'm live on TWITCH Mon-Fri 10am-6pm EST! Come by and say hi!

[@mohnkuchenzentrale]

Hello, A little thought experiment for you as feedback. You are your own biggest fan and the best consumer of your videos. What is it that you want? I’m a content creator myself and have often asked, “What can I improve or change to make the content more engaging for viewers?” And I understand the reasoning behind it. However, you’re the one who can answer this question best. Create your videos in a way that excites you. The simplest path to happiness :)). Remember: You can’t make everyone out there happy. But you can make yourself happy.

[@NOAURATV]

@@mohnkuchenzentrale yeah thanks for the feedback and definitely true words! Thanks

[@TubbyFatkins]

Hey NOAURA, really enjoy your videos. I may be alone in this feedback, but I often feel like you're on the verge of shouting in your live commentary videos. Speaking in a lower, softer tone would improve your commentary in my opinion and make it more listenable. Thanks for the great content, I've learned a lot from you.

[@NOAURATV]

@TubbyFatkins appreciate the feedback. However changing how I speak is gonna be hard and idk if I'll be able to satisfy you on this one.

It's a she not a he just saying

[@louloustevens3483]

NoAura....Bro this is a solid video, keep up the work on your commentary, you are getting it down much better, your making real improvements...your videos are helping me tremendously to learn strategy the whys and hows...keep making videos like this for different ranges. ...and also I have been playing hunt for a year casually and you taught me 6 new things that I did not know before. Great work...do not listen to the salty people, you are helping and making great content.

[@NOAURATV]

Thanks for this comment! Makes me hella happy and excited to make more and Im grateful for you and this comment! Thanks a lot for real I appreciate it!

[@NOAURATV]

Thanks for watching it through I appreciate you!

[@Hagl0rd23]

You’re already the best Hunt content creator as far as I’m concerned. I said the same when I subbed on twitch. The effort you put in to these videos shows, and is definitely appreciated. I’m 40 hours into the game at this point and your videos have played a huge part in my improvement as a player. I’m only a 4 star, but I’d be a lot worse off without the knowledge I’ve gained from these videos.

[@NOAURATV]

Dayum I appreciate the kind comment! 🙏 Glad you feel that way and hopefully I can continue to give you great videos!

SO nice hearing your thought process WHILE you're playing and not just after the fact. I am playing hunt for some years now but the mag empyting never crossed my mind, disgusting tactic but sometimes you gotta do what it takes to win :D

[@NOAURATV]

thanks for the kind words! and yes sometimes its needed!

[@Domnik2512]

My favourite are the load out videos and everytime you explain details to traits, ammo types that kind of stuff. I only started playing with the big update and there's no real wiki to the game, so learning those little details actually is huge for me. Also pretty sure that decoys burn bodys, correct me if I'm wrong.

[@NOAURATV]

@@Domnik2512 thanks for the feedback. Are you talking about regular decoys? They don't ignite downed hunters. Also decoy fuses don't, and blank fire decoys don't.

[@Domnik2512]

@@NOAURATV You are right, I just tested it in the shooting range, must've remembered it wrong. But the Info, that you can toggle the wilderness pact sprint by crouching was very useful! I always asumed it's random. I just took the build for a test ride and it played nicely. I will definitely take the 3 Buff syringes more often now.

[@alcedob.5850]

there are fuses for 10 hunt dollars that are good for burning bodies and armoreds

[@NOAURATV]

@@JahHallelujah thanks man glad I could help!

[@TheLG507]

Great video! Always great to watch a "full match" rather than just the highlight reel-style videos people tend to upload the most. It teaches you a lot about how elite players go about collecting clues, choosing their approach, dealing with AI, moving towards/away/around gunshots in the distance, rather than just show how good they are at the shooting. I was wondering how the bounty works with trios, does one guy not get any bounty cash? Considering the boss only drops two tokens, I mean. I've got around 110 hours in the game but I only play solo.

[@NOAURATV]

@@TheLG507 yeah its definitely a great way to learn that game by watching what the thoughts of others are. As for the trio bounty. Everyone that extracts on the team gets awarded for the same xp and hunt dollars if you extract together. The only thing they don't get is the difference between how much they found in game as far as cash registers, hunter loot, and purses (little money pouches). Otherwise everything related to the money will be shared if you extract together. So if my buddy kills the boss, gets the token and takes it to extract and I didn't do anything to help the team I'll still get paid for the token.

[@williamrockcastle408]

That last clip xD i was like Damn....DAMN....DAMNNNNNNN! that was clutch lol

[@NOAURATV]

Thanks 😂🙏

[@CrusaderKen]

Great video. I liked this one better than the last one. I liked that you talked about not just what you are doing but WHY you are doing it. Like when you said I'm gonna kill these mobs so that... Or I heard shots here here's what I think they're doing and here's my plan on how to react. I feel like i got a lot out of this. The small stuff you do that might seem inconsequential is stuff noobs like me don't even notice or think about; or if I do, i may not know how to react properly.

[@NOAURATV]

Thanks for the compliment and I'm glad I could help you out. Describing my actions down to the little details is definitely beneficial and I plan on doing it this way for all of these guides going forward. I'd also like to make one of these guides a month but we shall see how it turns out!

[@bifty9]

Congrats to the insane Game3, very nice! Many people use the Maynard + Dumdum also for close to midrange cause of the tide spread and the fast die to the bleed. But i only hit in the shooting range with that thing 😅 Otherwise it would be a good alrounder wepaon, but i hate scopes. Could only use it for hip fire... Nice show of the midrange loadout. Thanks

[@zacksomers1811]

im loving the videos in the noob guide series right now. I havent looked at all of them so sorry if this has already been covered but as a new player i cant bring all this fire gear all the time cause I'm broke lol id be curious to see a video showing how to run solid builds without having to flush the hunt dollars every round. For instance i pretty much am scared to buy anything over 150 hunt dollars as a single item, youll never catch me with a crown or a mosin. P.S. one thing you could add to your videos is showing the total build price every run

[@cyphersuit1]

Have you looked into the flare pistol yet?

[@NOAURATV]

I'm going to be making more budget loadout guides/videos soon so keep your 👀 peeled. Anyways thanks for the feedback

[@GianfrancoP97]

You dont loot flares from bodies, the only way to resupply the flare gun is with ammo box.. so yeah you can use it to kill hives or armoreds and just go by a supply cart and get it back easy

[@NOAURATV]

@@GianfrancoP97 well it wouldn't be a noaura video without saying some incorrect shit. 😂 Appreciate you correcting me and I'll be honest I don't use the flare pistol much and I think it used to work like that?

[@djason_music]

Great content! I thought the editing was good. Maybe the music was a little loud in the beginning. I've got about 20 hours in the game now. Having a blast. What's the best way to get better at identifying guns by their sounds? I find it to pay attention to the sounds other than "AH! They're shooting at me!" which either getting knocked or looking at someones body after the shooting is the only way to start matching gun to noise.

[@NOAURATV]

@@djason_music thanks for the feedback. Also you can actually go into the 3d view of the guns and shoot it at different distances to gauge what they sound like at those distances. That's a solid way to learn them but the best way is to just use different guns and play more. Not the answer you want to hear but the best one for you!

[@brandontomlinson1577]

actually crazy surefoot was bugged the entire event with no hotfix

[@NOAURATV]

Honestly not too surprising since they had the death cheat bug a little over a year ago and it wasn't fixed for a whole 3 month event

[@NOAURATV]

Well I appreciate the feedback and hope some day you get to enjoy this game!

[@RayPace-r5g]

Constructive criticism, at 18:00 he saw you because you were wiggling around…

[@NOAURATV]

Potentially... But I genuinely disagree. If you look closely. She literally peaked around the corner looking right at my direction. It's 6 star MMR I'm not gonna stand still at that point when they're looking in my direction without anything to cover me from being spotted. However sure she could've just been looking around but I would almost bet if I wasn't moving that she would still have seen me. Maybe I'm crazy but I think it was safe to say they might've seen me move from that position

[@RayPace-r5g]

@ I am certainly not in tune with 5 and 6 star mindset lmfao.. could have been something fishy or awareness of surroundings. Idk, I’m a natural high 3 star. I just don’t do the wiggling especially if no one is even aware of my presence from a distance but maybe that’s exactly why I am 3 star lol

[@NOAURATV]

@RayPace-r5g it can definitely work and I don't think the dude was cheating or anything. And your point is valid. He probably wouldn't have seen me and the first dude didn't give me an indication that the team saw me so yeah I shouldn't have been moving. But the 2nd person looked right at me right when she peaked and I usually do get headshot and I do the whole "did they see me" boom bam I'm dead. So yeah idk not a bad idea if you have some concealment imo but it was an open shot to me besides me being mostly behind a rock

[@darklord220]

Yeah it does seem like the second you stay still within range you get headshot at least in 6star lobbies. It's stressful ​@@NOAURATV

[@NOAURATV]

@darklord220 fr fr

[@edwardharrison43]

Great content! Btw what do you think is good as secondary if I want to take quartermaster or if I run the shorty variant of the Centennial?

[@NOAURATV]

Thanks! I think a great loadout especially if your solo is using the Romero talon and the centennial shorty. I use it all the time and will try to make a video on that loadout very soon!

[@glaz.stalina]

what do you think about the opinion that some hunters have advantages in stealth? I often take a reptile and have noticed that I am really less likely to be noticed in the grass and bushes. do you have your list of top stealth skins?

[@NOAURATV]

I like to use literally all of the hunters so I don't run the same exact ones. However there definitely is a slight advantage to be had with some skins. I don't have a huge list of them but some are better than others. My favorite skin though in general is the penitent. WBU?

[@glaz.stalina]

@@NOAURATV I don't have many hunters. in solo I usually take Reptile, recently bought Skull Taker, dls have a great beartrap skin, like not pay-2-win territory but blends in with the environment much better than black one, got few angry comments coz of them lol. and I plan to buy the Scarecrow. some players blame crytek for turning hunt into cod and not solving the problems of the game, which is a stupid statement because this is done by different departments of 3d designers and coders, not just one guy on a leash in the basement

[@NOAURATV]

@glaz.stalina I think most people refer to the game seeming like cod more and more cause of other changes but I get what your saying.

[@LKeyYT]

Hey NoAura, what do you think about throwing knives after the buff? Can it replace the spear in, say, a close range loadout?

[@NOAURATV]

I think it slightly can replace the spear simply cause you have so many compared to the spears. All you need it head or torso for both to kill but I'd still prefer the spear. I can try running the knives tomorrow for the stream and see how I like them though

[@HitmanSam-ui4mb]

Can you make an ultimate team guide load out video as well. Thank you.

[@NOAURATV]

@@HitmanSam-ui4mb potentially. I don't play with teammates often anymore but I will try and see what I can do

[@Peterd0e]

I have feelings that your moves or st least mouse actions are very chaotic or nervous but seems its just feelings bec it works for you. Nice videos, you had a but luck in game1 as 95% of my situations there is always 1 guy watching my body.

[@amphion2277]

A big portion of playing solo is luck. Sometimes death is just unavoidable and sometimes you get lucky. Skill and game knowledge just give you more opportunities to be lucky

[@NOAURATV]

It was definitely surprising they didn't corpse camp but I genuinely the think they did the test of stay on his body. Let's run away and see if he pops up. Then I didnt so they came back and burned and bounced thinking since I passed the test I was prolly not alone. But who knows and yeah my mouse movements can def be sporadic

[@sunflowermilk1072]

I think the only thing I could say needs improvement is your commentary. You would benefit from writing an outline b4 the video. Not a script but just bullet points, in order, that you want to talk about. It still keeps the very much 1 take feel and non-scripted way; while also being able to stay on topic a lot better. You could write what you should be doing as a solo w/ a medium range build and what to keep in mind in the bullet points. Sorry for the long winded comment. Also, great video!

[@NOAURATV]

All good don't worry about the long message. I appreciate your time to watch, write it, and give me feedback. Also good points and I'll definitely have to give it a try!

[@Psyborgasm]

I dont play Trios, but i main solo vs. duos. Im finding it hard to kill the boss and extract. Every time i kill a boss i get jumped by teams

[@NOAURATV]

If you find yourself in the boss lair having to defend more than attack it might be best for you to just use a close range loadout. I have another solo guide with that loadout range if your interested but yeah that's the best advice I can give or try to wait to be a third party to make sure the teams aren't only focusing on you.

if ppl really want to make money after each win just go into character press M to remove everything and use the loadout on another hunter for the first win money bonus :) Sadly they just didnt add an icon yet for it in the new UI :/ Edit: I made a simple system until they add the icon... I buy all free hunterS after i win so that way i get free weapons/tools and consumables. SO i have free hunters between my legendary i just won a game with 🎉 So i dismiss them when i need stuff for my new luz mala 😂😂

[@elijahknesel3344]

Your commentary is great but editing could potentially use a little work. I've noticed a few vids where you fumble over words or will repeat the same piece of info forgetting that you've already gone over it. Other than that my only suggestion would be this same exact series but with a fresh account to show us what to do solo before unlocking certain traits. I feel like at the rate I'm levelling my account i will be able to unlock serpent in 4 years or so 😂

[@NOAURATV]

😂😂 I gotcha. But no that's not an editing flaw, it's supposed to be like that. If I say something twice it's not bad in my eyes. Like I said I'm going over my thoughts as I go and just trying to explain everything. Also not everyone watches the video all the way through since it's a long one. So Its nice to say it a few times imo for someone who only watches that match, opposed to watching the whole video. And like I said this is supposed to show the whole game. And sometimes when I'm recording I don't know if that particular game will be going into the video so I'll just say what I'm thinking. Also these games aren't always recorded in order. So yeah I'm just giving as much info as I can during the game and sometimes I mention the same things from a previous match if it pertains to something relevant in the next one. But I appreciate your feedback

And the beginning is going over what I'm using on my loadouts since Im a solo and how each thing benefits me.

[@jesterclownmime]

Cent dum dum, this video didn't age well lol. You'll have to substitute it with Drilling dum dum. Better choice anyways. I rarely play solo without a shotgun or scoped rifle as it forces teams to respect your personal space and allows you to control the flow of battle, making up for the loss in numbers
