@@DuskEalain Confidence is your guide. If you HOPE your arrow will hit its mark, it won't. If you BELIEVE the arrow will hit its mark, it will do so squarely.
It is interesting and fun how the huntmen is the inverse of the rifles on how easy to the headshot classes. Due to huntsman using the projects hitboxes, it is easy to headshot scout but hard to headshot heavies. While the rifles use the hitscan hitboxes, it is easy to headshot heavies but hard to headshot scouts
Actually, no. It would be more accurate to depict it the way Dr Lalve did. It's not the huntsman arrow itself that's big, it's the generosity of the hit detection.
Is that heavy gonna peak?" A certain overextending flank class: *"Oh, wassup."* The huntsman takes situational awareness and prediction to use effectively, but I feel the intention was a sniper weapon that doesn't take crackshot bizarre bargain aim to use well and thats very thoughtful.
The intention was to give Sniper a weapon designed for midrange combat rather than long range combat, which is something only a few weapons focus on but which allows Sniper to be better offensively.
The arrowheads are just magnetic, and the mercs all just have so many bullets and bits of shrapnel in them that a fridge magnet would stick to them. It's canon i promise don't look it up
One thing to note, 0:26 Unusualifiers for the Director's Vision can still drop (afaik) Source - I have a Screaming Tiger Director's Vision that I got to unbox last year.
I just realized the guy someone else killed at around 6:34 is named "Plague Boi" That only stands out to me because that was the name of the guy that Giftapulted a strange sniper and I received it. that's pretty rad epic video btw
Wait just a minute! At 2:14, is that my imagination, or was that a shortened version of the cheering sound effect from the Monster Factory mini-game from Wishbone Activity Zone? (I know that game forwards and backwards, lol.) If so, cool! If not, neat coincidence that it sounds just like it. 😊
I played a game of Hong Kong with the compound and I was at the enemy's stairs where a demoknight was running up, I shot and just barely missed the demo's head and it hit some random guy behind the demo I didn't even see so I had to pan that demoknight and got a random crit. I fucking love this game so much
Remember: the Huntsman and Fortified compound make use of both the hitscan and projectile hurtboxes (basically what the hitboxes have to hit in order to hurt you), when it hits the projectile hurtbox it snaps to the nearest hitscan hurtbox where it deals the damage
Which is why headshots on Scouts and Spies are so easy to get, they've got huge spaces in front of them where their heads are the closest hitscan hitbox.
Glove Bow could be a fun item in TF2. It has a bigger hit box but deals less damage, and may have a chance to confuse the target if it hits the headshot?
Or give it the current hitreg and use something smarter for the regular huntsman/compound. Though it seems they're fairly against using the confusion status anymore after the OPness that was the old Sandman, maybe extra knockback or something.
Bow that fires comically large kitchen appliances. Also. My sleep deprived brain did NOT see a punching glove on the end of that arrow in the thumbnail.

The huntsman's name is from the 'Hunt' we do for the body shots on the enemy 'Men'.

Due to huntsman using the projects hitboxes, it is easy to headshot scout but hard to headshot heavies.

and with pyros you should aim above their head to get a headshot

It's my favorite sniper weapon to use because it's so easy to switch from defensive spamming to stupid aggression.
The intention was to give Sniper a weapon designed for midrange combat rather than long range combat, which is something only a few weapons focus on but which allows Sniper to be better offensively.
