    As a veteran player, the biggest tip I can give you: do not make noise.
    Do not waste your ammo on the generic zombies around the map. You can run out of ammo pretty fast if you aren't careful. As you level up, after a certain level, game gets a lot harder and game matches you with high tier hunters (tier 3) and prestiged too. Make sure you avoid scaring birds and any other wildlife as experienced players track down other players by sound. Entire game is basically all played around sound. Make as less noise as possible. If you got zombies in your way, try to avoid them or kill them with melee or throwing knives.
    If you keep on playing, you will eventually get to a level where you will be vs highly experienced players which makes the game really hard. Avoiding hunters meanwhile doing bounties is really hard.
    Once you are banishing a bounty, all hunters on the map are notified and can see the location of banishment and will slowly make their way towards there to contest for the bounty.
    In short: be careful, have your eyes and ears on high alert and try to go around the map as quietly as possible.^^
    I'm really glad you made a video on this game. This game isn't doing well in terms of player count and any advertisement like this helps.

Last Man Standing will get the Hunter and Weapons for free. It has a lot of more to it. There is no Item and Equipment looting and Loot doesn't decide how good ur round will be like in BR-Games. And I'd like to add that a round of Battleroyal is in all cases a throw away thing, meaning, If you win a round of BR there is nothing you really get.

      Well, the game IS a very original take on the battle royale genre. Sure, killing other players is purely optional, but the overall setup is pretty much a objective-based battle royale horror shooter. I mean, it's like a BR game for people with actual taste in games. It's not shameful to do battle royale if you do it well.

    @angrypancake4358 6 ปีที่แล้ว +20

    Hey man, really like seeing you playing this game. In case you want to play more of it I want to give you tip..... Sound is very important in this game. If you shoot a gun, scare crows, or triger any other soundtrap in the game, every other player on the map will hear that. Intensity of the sound effect depends on the distance they are away from your position and they will be able to tell the direction from which the sound is coming from. So if you shoot a gun you are giving away your position to other players. Use knife to kill lesser enemies (zombies, hives, etc.). The most important skill in the game is to move fast without making any sound.

    Sorry, but I need to correct you on some things as a Hunt player:
    - You can solo this game and still win. Its harder because you are alone, but still possible.
    - Even though you spawn as duos or solo, you can team up with another team. BUT some might be hostile so proceed with caution
    - Its always 10 players. Be it 5 duos OR 10 solos OR any combo of those.
    Also some friendly tips:
    - You can extra anytime even if you don't have all the bounties or any.
    - Use a melee weapon to kill the monsters where possible since it makes less noise and you have ammo to kill the target or players.
    - Butcher goes down fast with explosives.
    - The spider is easier to fight when you just stand still. He always comes running back and he pauses and screeches before attacking.
    And to everyone thinking of join Hunt I wish you all good luck and happy hunting

      @@ebeleingram8048 Not at all.
      I have played a few early access games and I gotta say it's actually one of the most pleasant experiences I've had and here is why I say so:
      - The devs are super active. They even do developer live-steams on their TH-cam channel.
      - Their website even has a roadmap of what they are working on.
      - They take ideas from the community via their forums and discord.
      TL;DR: Best experience I've had in an early access game.
      Cons:
      - As TheLazyPeon said in the video its lacking content currently (However i should also add that there is a lot of content to come. Check out their roadmap to see what I mean www.huntshowdown.com/roadmap)
      - The game is punishing, but yet again the devs released a patch recently that makes it less punishing to new players.
      - The controls are not like any other FPS I know of, but surprisingly it gives you more control
      - The water devils (those eel things that attacked in the water at 10:33) are so evil you will cry yourself to sleep.
      Overall in the 97 hours I sank into the game was really enjoyable. This really is a fun game and the controls are different from anything I have felt. It's so immersive that the fear is real sometimes (TheLazyPeon's reactions remind me of my own the first few games). What I really like is the amount of communication the devs have with community. This is why there are so few cons I feel.
      Objectively speaking, it is definitely worth checking out at least, but I also recommend learning from TheLazyPeon's mistake and check out the tutorial video.
      Hope this answers your question :)

    This is possibly one of the best games I have ever played in my 20 years of gaming. It's a fantastic balance between reward and punishment, and games can either be an incredibly invigorating triumph, or make you feel like a total sack of shit because a whiffed shot. I've never caught onto any of the BR-style games as hard as this (and I agree, it's certainly its own genre), and honestly get so excited when me and my duo buddy can get online. I would definitely recommend people invest into it. It's certainly not a casual game though, even if recent changes have intro'ed a few casual elements.

    @cazabrow1967 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    a few tips for anyone wanting to get into the game:
    beyond trainee levels you really don't wanna just fire off your guns at every zombie, the shots ring out across the map and other players will leg it straight over to catch you off guard, normally you wanna use a knife or melee weapon which is much more effective and quiet at killing annoying zombies.
    the starter rifle Lazy was using (Winfield) comes with a lot more bullets than higher level rifles, combined with the low level pistols which use the same bullets so it grants even more. For example a low level rifle and pistol combined can let you hold up to around 40+ "compact" bullets, whereas the combination of a high level rifle and pistol combined would give you 19 "long bullets".
    you wanna crouch past injured horses and dog kennels since they are there purely to reveal your location to other players, shooting them (with unsilenced weapons) makes it counter-productive since other players will just hear the gunshot instead.
    when you grab the bounty off the boss's corpse, the next 10 seconds of your darksight lets you see orange mist in the general direction of nearby players within 150 meters (works through walls)
    if you get taken down, you permanently lose 1 bar of health but can get it back by banishing a boss or buying them after the game with perk points if you make it out alive.
    -Also if a player is downed you can toss a fire bomb, lantern or any flammable throwable onto the body to slowly and permanently burn their remaining health away, this puts massive pressure on the remaining teammate as they need to act fast if they want to save them.
    Noise is the biggest part of the game in PvP, if you walk through hanging cans, chains, over glass, in mud, through water it makes distinctive noise that experienced players will identify. Naturally you want to crouch your way towards other players if you're trying to get the jump on them.
    Also the Butcher is completely immune to fire and the spider is immune to poison respectively.
    the electric lamp you can buy/equip is the worst location giveaway for pvp. It's universally avoided by players in the game.
    jumping in waist-deep water will stop burning just as using a medkit found at resupply stations or compounds will heal and immediately stop bleeding.
    the Hive's head to one-shot her is the one hanging off the side, not the giant hive sticking out the top of her body. Just as all npcs have hitboxes that will take more damage just like players do.

      @cazabrow1967 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@kpjlflsknflksnflknsa Well when it comes down to it, the main gameplay is a FPS like any other, battlefield, cod etc. So when you start out you do get put in lower ranking of other new players under rank 15. and until you pass rank 15 you don't lose your character OR any of their equipment when you die.
      But really it depends on who you're against. Sometimes you get killed before you even spot the guy who shot at you and vice versa, sometimes you can outshoot two people in a 2v1. But generally if you avoid making unnecessary noise you can end up getting the jump on other players which gives you way better odds of winning.

      @@AngryWeirdo You must be thinking "look at this casual pleb who accepts shitty products". You're wrong, FO76 is not a great game but that doesn't mean it's absolute garbage like many make it out to be. MTX in games are fundamentally a problem for the customer, since they are there to cut back on features we've grown accustomed to in the previous generations of the games, but now they try to sell them back to us via MTX. I don't buy MTX for games I don't want to support, there's no singleplayer game I'd ever buy MTX for, neither will I ever buy "atoms" for FO76 since they're easily accessible via in game achievements. You guys who blindly hate and join these bandwagons are a major problem, there can't be any innovation or anything resembling a change in the industry because you're personally not ready for it yet. The game developers can't win right now, they either fuck up with some political agenda like BF:V(which is actually a good game, who would've known) or FO76 trying this multiplayer FO thing everyone's been asking for since 2008. Instead of trying to be cynical in every single aspect, next time try to think of every game as "this is a good game", games are much better when you don't enter into them with the notion of them sucking ass. Games are not getting worse like you try to point out, most people who say games are getting worse have the most rose tinted glasses ever and don't even bother trying to like new stuff since it's much easier to just hate on stuff instead of try liking. It's much easier to hate since you don't even have to try and there are lots of "angry" teens who join the bandwagons now.
      That being said, FO76 is still not a perfect game, but there's something for a certain group of people. I know majority are not a fan of FO76, but majority never even really got into the lore of the world and just pushed it aside and went with the easy route of bashing it. I'll give you that the Xbox and PS4 versions are literally unplayable with the horseshit optimization and frame drops when shooting guns. The game is not nearly as buggy as many think, I counter an annoying bug maybe once every 10 hours of gameplay(which is more than most who "review" the game actually put into it). The gunplay isn't as bad as people say, the hit registration can be a bit wonky when enemies are right in your face but doesn't really matter. Not gonna make a full review for someone who doesn't even care or care to bother trying to understand other people.
      If I'm the frog who slowly boils waiting for the slow doom of gaming industry via MTX, you're the sheep who ruin the internet with mob mentality and blind following of people who hate on stuff like they were a leader of a cult. That seems fair, doesn't it?

    So glad you reviewed this game, man! I highly encourage you keep playing, especially if you can find an experienced partner to show you the ropes. The more you play the more you honestly learn so much about the mechanics you didn't even realize at first. I promise when you learn to incorporate more melee and stealth/coordination with your partner, a better understanding of the environment around you, and entering a server packed with other hunters, the game really goes to a whole new level.

      @@TheLazyPeon The fuck would monster variety change. How does that influence your though process? Once you figure out how to kill those monsters (which should take like a few encounters/minutes), then it is easy to play around them. I dont see how more monsters and bosses will generate longevity. It is just nice to have/nice to look at when there are more things to look at, but not really a lot of meat that would make me stick around for longer. The human interactions in the PvP encounters is what makes me want to keep playing. Having interesting fights is what makes this game once you got over the first impression and figure out how everything works. But once you get there, you realize that the game mechanics have flaws. The instant headshot is just frustrating and becomes almost boring. I rather have longer, drawn out fights than outright getting headshotted and headshooting every single time. But with the current game mechanics and damage values, that is just not possible. I would rather see them make significant changes to the core gameplay than to see more monster variety.

  • @Arniox
    @Arniox 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    They did a devstream recently where they explained that their servers are very new and very beta. At the moment they're not strong enough to run multiple bosses, hundreds of AI and more than 10 players. So right now it's limited to 5, 2 man teams. Me and my mate that plays hunt with me and been playing since early alpha and we've been really wanting 4 players for ages but it still looks like a while away.
    It's also extremely efficient to take a knife to every game. If you hold the knife and then hold attack, it'll do a charge knife stab which on a headshot on the normal zombies will one shot kill. You can also bring sabres, axes, hammers and a sword which do a different amount of damage on the charged attack. Some of them can one or two shot the hives or larger beasts.
    Also, fire is extremely strong on the spider so find a lantern and throw it at the spider. Also, pushing and holding 'E' will bring up dark sight. Using this you can see the clues as little glowing blue things in the distance. Once you get closer they'll be really bright and easy to see but there's almost always something guarding the clue. Clues are also team based. Each team, or in solo, each person must collect 3 clues to find the monster. It's not shared.
    Also, you can, if you're lucky, just find the monsters randomly when entering a place of interest. You don't REQUIRE all 3 clues to get to the boss.

    Weapons are 100 years old and great! The feel and the sound of the weapons are just....WOW! The reloading sounds, the handling, the design and the animations are top notch.
    The performance is a lot better than in Alpha when I played first. So the devs can and are optimizing the game! :D
    It feels really good playing with a friend! The progression is satisfying.
    I love the fact that you can take your time and play as fast or as slow as you want.
    A very good spatial awareness, good spotting skills and positioning will be highly rewarded in this game!
    Edit: Also the game can be pretty competitive since you also play against another 8 hunters that try to play the objective. Meaning everyone tries to get the bounty and escape the map.

    I think that if you add more players it removes a lot of the spookiness and the places would get really cramped. What I mean is when you would be in the barn banishing/fighting the boss and another team would appear to contest. Otherwise, I'm glad you like it I had my eye on this game for a while. The one thing that concerns me tho is exactly as you said lack of variety in terms of monsters and zones I hope they soon add new ones otherwise the gameplay might get rather repetitive but who knows games like MOBAs are repetitive in a way but can stay fun. (Meaby they could add a tool to make custom maps? But I highly doubt they will do that.)

    Super fun game. Has a steep learning curve that can be mastered after practicing. They added a free Hunter in every refreshed list of hunters, a new map, and the ability to pick up fallen players weapons. I'm sure there are others but being a vet at the game just those additions made the game about 10x better. Not every game has lvl100 people hiding, now they are using the free hunters and will go in loud which still works if you figure out the combat system across the board.
