    I love how the huntsman uses the projectile hit box that then checks what the closest main hit box is, making headshots so much easier to hit.

  • @KannonandSwitch
    @KannonandSwitch 2 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    If you DO want to get into some of the nuance, the arrows are more likely to literally latch to an opponents head if you are BELOW them when you take the shot. Literally intentionally taking low ground or even something as small as crouching before letting the arrow loose will increase your success rate at hitting headshots a good degree.
    Also, crossbow bolts move in the same arc and speed as huntsman arrows, so playing med is an AMAZING way to get better at huntsman shenanigans.

  • @Awnalrawashdeh
    @Awnalrawashdeh 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Now I actually know how the huntsman projectile actually works, and it isn't luck based at all, but more like the hitbox is just huge in some scenarios.
    Hitboxes are something we are all familiar with, the boxes that make up the model of a player, if a hitscan bullet hits one of these boxes, it will register as a hit.
    Projectiles use Collision boxes, not hitboxes. Collision boxes are just 1 big box all around the player, that is the same size for all classes. If a projectile hits one of these collision boxes, they will count as a hit. Collision boxes are called "collision" because they are also used for the maps, and use collision boxes for when you collide with something, or some one. Each player has both of these on at the same time, and come in to play for whenever htiscan, or projectiles head their way.
    All the projectiles can't headshot, besides one. The Huntsman Arrows. It's a projectile, but it has to headshot. Remember Collision boxes are just 1 big box, if a projectile hits, it is a hit. To compensate, since they both are active at the same time, arrows use both htiboxes and collision boxes. If it hits a hitbox, it's a hit. Hits a head hitbox, it's a headshot, buuuut, if it hits a collision box, it will locate where on the collision it exactly hit, and it goes to the closest hitbox. So if it hits the side of the collision box, it locates the closest hitbox to where it landed and relocates to that hitbox. Since heads most of the time stick out from the body a lot, a lot of the collision box is more head hitboxes then anything.
    Basically, huntsman arrows just have a 2x bigger hitbox for enemies. It makes sense because well think, it's a projectile, so it has arc, no scope, takes time to hit your target, and hitscan doesn't have any of that jazz to deal with.
    Since scout has a pretty tiny, skinny body, he has small hitboxes, but since collision boxes are the same size for all classes, this makes scout have a HUGE area on where you can hit him with your arrows. Heavy is the largest of course, normally heavy is the easiest to hit because of his slow speeds and huge hitbox, but the collision box veritcally is about the same height as heavy, leaving a small area of heavies head hitbox left, unlike scout.
    In summary, nothing about it is luck based, just a big, big hitbox.

    Lucksman enthusiast here. This video is a great meme and as a sniper main my class needs the roast. Real talk though, I feel like the huntsman is one of the most difficult usable primary weapons to do well with in tf2, especially on more open maps. I feel like the whole rng thing is definitely present, but rather confusing as soldier and demo have so much of the same luck when playing. I mean let’s be real, it’s impossible to always guess midair strafe patterns for air shots and I can’t even count how many times I’ve brainlessly shot at control points, gotten a random crit, and killed the entire team. The huntsman to me seems no different than rockets and pills, just harder to use imo. Still the lucksman without a doubt since I can’t even think of how many invisible spies I’ve killed, but also an incredibly fun, difficult, and rewarding weapon to master

    Cleaner’s Carbine is also pretty good with this loadout. Like you said, it takes just one bullet after a body shot to dispatch a light class, so the slower firing speed isn’t that bad. Plus, the mini-crits can actually be pretty effective when you miss a headshot with the bow (somehow) or with the Bushwhacka.

    The most satisfying thing in TF2 is hitting a perfect airblast on a huntsman arrow and headshotting the sniper who fired it.

  • @Wahmageddon
    @Wahmageddon 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The DDS needs it's extra 25 health back. It's perfect for huntsman snipers, as it lets you be more aggressive. Plus, you can still instantly die to a single quickscope, as a quickscope headshot does 150.
    The only problem the DDS had was the bullet protection. Not the health.

    Just want to point out that Overwatch wasn't even in development yet when Valve released the Huntsman for TF2. Hard to say that the Huntsman was made in response to the popularity of Hanzo in Overwatch when Overwatch didn't even have gameplay elements released yet in 2009.
    Otherwise great video.

    The flip side to that jank ass head hit box is sometimes you like up a headshot on an idle player that's guaranteed to hit and it somehow just bodyshots or misses instead

    As a person without any, I can confirm that Spy, The Huntsman, and Pyro if the enemy team is good, do in fact require skill. I know this because I am unskilled and am bad at all three (as well as the rest of the cast)

  • @ZaTrapu
    @ZaTrapu 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It's uses the bounding box which is a big rectangle that's the same for every class to register hits. If it doesn't hit the class' hit box but hits only the bounding box it teleports itself to the nearest hitbox to where it hit on the bounding box. So effectively it screws over scout the most and heavy the least since scout covers very little of his while heavy takes up most of his
