I would love to see a video on proper rotation strats, as I struggle with them in my games. When to be quiet vs when to hold w, that sort of thing. Really love the content, and I'm always excited to learn a bit more about this game
I love baiting in this game, specially as a solo, for example, I often shoot from doors or windows that are reachable from the outside on purpose to tempt them in the case I get shot to rush me and fall into one of the traps I’ve set up before hand. That shit works all the time, specially against trios since they get overconfident when they realize you are a solo player. One more thing that you should do, when you have been inside a compound for too long with the enemies constantly trying to get a pick on one of you is to silently get out of the main building and hold a corner, they never expect it and by that time they are in most likely so laser focused on the main building and growing impatient that they will walk right past you giving a free kill.
@@vladen14 And the other public teammate must be the one not moving the first minutes or dropping out right at the beginning. And dont get me started on my regular mates :)
The most frustrating thing ever is team mates that walk around like they're on valium, crouch walking everywhere and not pushing. Basically just waiting for someone else to attack them. Just get stuck in!
Or on the other side of the coin is team mates who insist on being right next to you while being loud af when enemies are nearby exposing the positions.
Well I can tell you this about rotating and that's as he said you shouldn't be running outside of cover but what you should be doing instead is paying very close attention to a few things when it comes to deciding where to go which is the first thing being you need to pay attention to where the sound of the bullet that someone may have just fired at you came from because if it didn't drop you that means you have a chance to find yourself a correct direction of cover after you find yourself behind cover that is between you and your enemy would can be even something as simple as trees that just make it too hard for them to see when really understand that is actually you as there's a lot of dense brush that if you crouch or crouched behind small trees then it's basically impossible to actually really see you. Once that's done you needed them assess which direction do you have cover whether that again things like tall grass or maybe trees or dirt Mounds or perhaps fences and you also need to assess whether this is a fight you should actually take or if you should just run because for example if they are on The High Ground and on top of that they're actually for example in the barn shooting outside of a window that's small then unless you feel confident that you can buy yourself an opening either with your tools or perhaps just some return fire then try your best to sneak into the building and watch for traps because if they're in that building they've likely fortified it if they're banishing and even then you should just assume that that's what they've done with at that point you make the fight anymore even one although if there's multiple people in there you will have to be careful which is why you should go in with something that can enemies multiple times like for example a revolver or a mosin drum or a shotgun or perhaps even just your melee weapons as for example if you bring a combat axe or machete doesn those both work as very good close-range weapons as you have to consider that most guns are either bolt-action, lever action, pump-action, or they are revolvers meaning they have very few shots and it's a long time between each shot so bringing in a melee weapon might just be a good choice if you want a good close-range weapon
Oh no it's the sort of thing that you learn as you go with most certainly you could be rotating perfectly but if you can't aim or perhaps you're not all that good with the melee weapons you're trying to use you might not actually do anything so one thing I would suggest is perhaps if you keep doing things that you think is good rotation then go into a practice game and just take some time to pop some zombies in the head from various distances so you could really hone in on whether or not your aim is good because if your aim is really good and you keep hitting the heads perfectly or even just hitting his body shots often that's likely that it's your actual positioning during a rotation that is bad but if you find that you can't hit the broadside of a barn then maybe just take some extra time to learn how to guns fire
@@R_o_o_k_i_n_g_t_o_n that's a pretty good point actually, I didn't really think about that but generally I can hit my shots. The reason I know it's a problem with rotating with a team is that me and my duo will often kill a couple of duos and then get sniped in the back of the head and realise that we haven't moved the entire time.
@@alliahcherry6721 yup and pasta one thing you should remember is like I said, hunt Showdown is a game where everyone is limited to essentially bolt-action, pump-action, lever-action, and revolvers meaning in total people don't have much ammo to throw your way especially with how limited is and they can't do it really all that fast at all so making sure you wait until you hear them fire shot especially if you're in a situation where say or on the porch type area or a duck type area on a side of a building then you could totally take advantage of the fact of being able to duck around the corner and then pop back out and then get closer and then pop back out and then stab in the few times because they'll likely only be able to shoot once every few seconds meaning that sometimes so long as you make sure to properly Serpentine as well as move your mouse around so your head is constantly moving making it harder to hit your head then you can open up your enemies to either take a shotgun blast to in the chest or maybe a bolt action shot their head if you are just a bit braver than you think it should be in basically just charge out your opponent especially since if you do kill them you can loot them and then take their first aid kit to heal any damage you might have taken
you make amazing content for newer players and helped me out immensely when I was just starting. I would have given up if you didn't hook me up with some good tips early on. I've got a few thousand hours under my belt now and am 5 (sometimes 6 stars) and when I saw this video pop up I honestly realized if it weren't for some of those older guides I wouldn't have had the passion for the game I have now, so thanks so much for that!
Have to hard disagree on forcing yourself to join your team on an ill-advised push. If my team makes a crazed push with incomplete information, doesn't frag in advance, or is outnumbered, it's just not a good play and there's no need to get my hunter killed because my team was impatient. However, otherwise great points in this video. Great guide!
Yeah I lost 50K to inpatient friends in the last few months! I tell them now if they do a stupid retarded suicide push and mostly of they don't warn me and go in alone and while I'm still far away or too far to support I ain't gonna suicide right after to give the other a free kill and lose my hunter too.
Hey, wanted to let you know, and say Thanks!, because your tips got me my first PvP kill in Hunt lol I was repeating "Rotate" and "go somewhere else to shoot again"; made damn sure to switch up my guns during the fight, and to use tools to disorient them. So, thank you.
Great vid as always Ascendance. Love the support for the community. Super keen for a drill down on any or all of these 5! Some crafty baiting would be awesome to see...
So we're just gonna ignore the fantastic baiting joke? I cannot stop laughing during the baiting section. Fantastic video though, learning a lot from your channel.
My best friend, his son, and myself have been getting into a nightly habit of playing this for 3 hours or so. These vids are helping keep up with the more experienced players. I even managed to wipe an entire team with a sword.
@@4FSGaming I play it on console and the community is not really all that. You join a group and people just rage quit when things go wrong. It is like you rushed a three man team with no call out or plan and this allowed them to 3v2 us because you were down before the fight started.
Picked up Hunt about 2 months ago and your channel has helped me with alot of things i was struggling with, your vids are detailed and entertaining. You just got another sub man and look foward to more awesome vids.
Great video! With baiting, I find running with any ranged rifle and then carrying a shotgun as secondary highly effective. If you're in a boss lair and only firing your rifle, enemies then think it's safe to push, so they risk coming up close, when you can surprise them with a shotgun.
I used to think that before they bring all that casual sh*t like levering, dual pistols etc. I'd say it goes both way, as firing ur shotgun can also scare most people and avoid being backstabbed or rushed while attempting to finish the boss. It keeps them at bay, and anyway that Handcannon is more like a last resort or defensive stance than a Rambo offensive weapon.
One of the greatest tips i can give is when you engage go all out loud and hit as hard as you can and then disappear like you were never there and flank the enemy's flank
@@somedude1324 what im saying is when you go loud and they know where youre at then go all out and fire hard on them and then disengage and find the enemy flank if they dont then circle around to a new position silently. I guess it depends on peoples play styles. I find that keeping distance and picking off shotgoonies and bomblancers works best for me
Your content is really satisfying, even when I take à Hunt break, I still watch your vids And statistics, diagrams and planifications vids might please a lot of players
I would just love more videos in total! Lol. I've really been trying hard to polish my playstyles. I've got a very VERY rough framework for how I like to play. And even some "hoke brew" strats myself that have worked well. But these videos are perfect for what im looking for and need. Thanks always for the content you give though!
It's rough coming from organized communities like Squad and ARMA where a lot of this is second-nature. It's not that he doesn't know these tactics... it's that he gets angry if I try to teach him or encourage him to use them. Story time? We had just picked up the game and gotten past rank 10, and were still slowly sweeping our way across Lawson when we (a duo) bumped headfirst into a trio. I called contact, initial reaction shots were exchanged, and we dove for cover. I called I'd be rotating left, and asked he either hold or rotate. We had a better position, we could move, they could not. Sprinting about 20m across, I got clean flank and got one of the trio... and turned to see my friend hot on my heels, following me blindly into _exactly_ the same cover I had just moved to. My immediate and involuntary reaction was to scream in horror "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" as shots from the remaining team started to come at us from multiple directions. We made it through mostly on the incompetence of the trio and better aim, but it was definitely 200% harder when we could have easily surrounded them and taken them apart. It's weirdly stressful knowing your good friend is an utterly incompetent teammate.
One of the best tactic I always do since easily a year is to always always bring a concertina bomb with me. If is super easy to use, sometime you can even get a super funny kill with it but mostly you can deny revives, necros, buy urself time to run away or flank around without risking losing ur advantage within 20 seconds and get back to say 1vs3 instead of 1vs2. Even better if you burn the guy just before. A match tonight in trio we were at Weeping Stone on the new map "center" then banish, kill 7 players around us then the 2 last persons camped SUPER HARD forever at long range with scopes, was super boring. I decided to concertina their teammate we killed inside then we pushed 1 of the 2, all three together but he ran away like a coward. We kept on going south to Pelican, did the other boss to get back our bars and deny them. In the way there I didn't even know until I see the highlights that I got a kill from the guy under concertina lol, they f*cked up the res I guess lol, then they went back trying to surround us with snipers but we ran the opposite way far away to Pear Plantation. No way we're gonna suicide straight into coward losers who don't want to fight and keep pulling back to snipe us with no skills, and bring them double bounty for free. They just didn't deserve a fight after those way too long 40min. Rounds should be limited to 30min single bounty, 45 for double. That way we'd avoid those super boring campy match that 95% of us hate.
I think a good video would be to highlight when you should be playing aggressive and when you should be playing passive/defensive. Often I get into the feel of one of them and struggle to switch to the other.
While hiding in an area waiting for a team to run past me, right after they did maybe 15 yards away. I stood up from crouching to see them over the downed trees infront of me and get a shot off, I got 180° headshot instantly before being able to do more than stand up. Not even in a bush to make noise standing up. These are the 3 stars that I fight lol. Idk maybe he just wanted to practice his 180° shots and I happened to have just stood up at the exact moment he decided to 😂
Me and my friend do the baiting one but instead I run out and do some stuff that a low level would do like shoot grunts and armored, running through glass and chains and just making so much noise and then when he sees them look out of the compound like wtf is he doing, he gets them
Us the 3d view in store, you can zoom out to various distances, it shows you that distance in meters, then fire the weapon hear the sound at that range
You can use a medkit or any injectable on your teammate as long as you are on full health when you do so, are right up against them, and they don't move around too much.
@@4FSGaming oh ok got it i can now be useful to my team thanks and by the way love the content you have a bright future with hunt just wait one day it will blow up but untill then keep doing what you doing
Huh, look who it is. I thought of you the other day after getting killed running to extract and not seeing an alert mine next to a red barrel. I remember discussing that on one of your videos before.
@@HazmatFTW Haha no but I did check just in case. Must be one of your disciples. Tbh felt sorry for the guy who placed it as he was already dead (not able to spectate them) so he never got to know he got me (with the bounty) before I extracted.
A video with diagrams and examples of sight lines relating to rotations and flanks would be amazingly helpful. Love your content Ascendance. I see a new 4FS gaming video, I click.
How do you feel about specialization? In other words alwaya using the same loadout. Realizing this chnages the role of a player, i am much better at supporting my team members then rushing a boss fight like im collecting a lottery check. Knowing which weapons i am better with and my role allows me to be a better team member vs. being the first one shot down. Thoughts?
You can play Hunt however you want, there's no requirement to mess around with different loadouts. I personally would be extremely bored if I didn't switch up what I was using constantly. The only issue with playing "support" is that you have to be confident in your ability to clutch 2v1 fights at close range when your teammates push up and get killed, unless you go with them in those instances.
Your right. It depends on how my partners are moving, if they are diving right into a push then this does quickly change the support role. But if they are probing then it becomes easier to hit the windows with a Mosin or Lebel for those peepers.
Gotta say that I love your tips and guide videos but I have this bad habbit of spacing out when the things on screen doesnt directly apply to what You're saying. So what I'm trying saying is maybe refer more to whats happening like when you pushed lair at Windy Runs.
@11:51 was my moto from LoL and DotA2 It is better for the whole team to do the wrong thing together, than half of the team to the wrong thing and the other watch them die. You can't stop someone from making a bad play, but you can assist in that play to make it less bad.
3:18 lmfao i would be so mad if i was their third and they didnt get the kill. why would you rush a man with a shotgun to try the melee. absolute mad lads
"Just camping in one spot and hoping someone will run pass your bush or building rarely works..." This is Asia server in a Nutshell if you don't believe me go give it shot, it's sad.
Free tip: if your team mate starts crouching at spam location, just leave map and find another team. Belive me, you will get mad to play with these idiots. So sick of these imbeciles that do nothing but crouch for 40 minutes, no push, no help, not even diversion. They hide in one place and it's a miracle if the even get to shoot one time per match. Then you see them on forum talking about their K/D rations and ELO. It's been hundreads of times now when I push a team and I keep both enemy busy, most of the time I kill one and get the other under half life. If I get I get killed in the end and I switch to my team mate, he is crouching some where a mile away from the location he was when the fight started. For a good team mate, diversion is all you need to do. Just help your team mates, always flank, always support. If you crouch in a corner while your team mate is fighting two enemies, never play this game again, just go minecraft.
NO#1: TO THE MUSIC & TANGO HAS BEGUN. NO#2: YOUR BACK, YOUR LIFE. NO#3: BE PREY NOT A SHEEP NO#4: FIRST RULE OF INTERNET NO#5: STRESS TEST ENEMY MENTAL STATE AND BREAK HIM
Tactic #1: don’t be that guy that sits a mile away from his team to try and “snipe” at shitty angles way out of your weapons range. Similarly don’t sit in a bush for 30 minutes straight because you don’t have the balls to ever push. Both your team and the enemy team will hate you with a passion since you’re annoying and wasting loads of time without ever doing anything useful and people like myself will simply not revive you or abandon you and extract. Just don’t.
No advice can help I've played this game solid and I'm as bad as I was wene I started its reaction time and feels like literally everyone has guns which fire fkn lazer beams and feels like literally anyone can hit me from 5 miles away head shot with a potato gun if I replicate anything shoot strafing jumping etc I get hit more its a game were you ither have it or you don't if you don't just delete and move on 😢😔
I know many people who start in this position but pull themselves up to become quite competent players. Hunt is a game where as long as you learn one new thing from every death you will get there eventually!
Ugh, I hate watching a video where I do all these things pretty well, I think. I'm a big brain player who always wants to get better. But the truth is: my mechanics are garbage and they'll probably never get better. ;)
No offence I really tried to get into this game, but man is the pace slow, nearly fall asleep, shame cause visually the game is legendary, but man that pace of the gameplay is granny slow, no wonder their isn’t a pro league.
Once your mmr goes up the games are faster:) Just run towards gunshots while moving like in a fight(with cover in mind), and you will get your fights:)
Great stuff, thanks a lot! I or better we often still struggle to push effectively. So some more push details would be appreciated. Even without diagrams... 🤠

I would love extended examples/diagrams. Subscribed ✨
Thanks for subbing!
Nice, New video! As I'm in vacation I'm not able to play, but I'm looking forward to get some shots again in the Bayou!
Have fun, thanks for watching!
Love your content bro!
Excellent!!
One of the best tactic I always do since easily a year is to always always bring a concertina bomb with me. If is super easy to use, sometime you can even get a super funny kill with it but mostly you can deny revives, necros, buy urself time to run away or flank around without risking losing ur advantage within 20 seconds and get back to say 1vs3 instead of 1vs2. Even better if you burn the guy just before.
A match tonight in trio we were at Weeping Stone on the new map "center" then banish, kill 7 players around us then the 2 last persons camped SUPER HARD forever at long range with scopes, was super boring. I decided to concertina their teammate we killed inside then we pushed 1 of the 2, all three together but he ran away like a coward. We kept on going south to Pelican, did the other boss to get back our bars and deny them. In the way there I didn't even know until I see the highlights that I got a kill from the guy under concertina lol, they f*cked up the res I guess lol, then they went back trying to surround us with snipers but we ran the opposite way far away to Pear Plantation. No way we're gonna suicide straight into coward losers who don't want to fight and keep pulling back to snipe us with no skills, and bring them double bounty for free. They just didn't deserve a fight after those way too long 40min.
Rounds should be limited to 30min single bounty, 45 for double. That way we'd avoid those super boring campy match that 95% of us hate.
It's certainly a versatile tool to have!
Hitting your shots vid!
Itd be so cool if you made full videos on all these topics.
Aweos stuff. Make more tactic content pls
I think a good video would be to highlight when you should be playing aggressive and when you should be playing passive/defensive. Often I get into the feel of one of them and struggle to switch to the other.
A very good video
While hiding in an area waiting for a team to run past me, right after they did maybe 15 yards away. I stood up from crouching to see them over the downed trees infront of me and get a shot off, I got 180° headshot instantly before being able to do more than stand up. Not even in a bush to make noise standing up. These are the 3 stars that I fight lol. Idk maybe he just wanted to practice his 180° shots and I happened to have just stood up at the exact moment he decided to 😂
Great vids theses how to videos are awesome even if you have a lot of hours in Hunt.
The only struggle I have is finding a teammate with a mic.
Try the official Hunt Discord
Yeah changing the position is good :D
My whole group doesnt understand rotation.. the amount of times they die because they sit in the same spot over a 3 min fight is almost 100%
7:04 top tier voice crack.
Legend Mate love it 🇦🇺🍺
Great video
Solo push guide would be interesting.
Me and my friend do the baiting one but instead I run out and do some stuff that a low level would do like shoot grunts and armored, running through glass and chains and just making so much noise and then when he sees them look out of the compound like wtf is he doing, he gets them
We not gonna' talk about that fucking nasty jump bayonet kill?
Do you have any videos or suggestions on how to identify where and how far away gun shots are? I struggle with pinpointing gunshot distances
Us the 3d view in store, you can zoom out to various distances, it shows you that distance in meters, then fire the weapon hear the sound at that range
i have a question for hunt how do i heal my teammates my teammate did it to me and i dont know how he did it
You can use a medkit or any injectable on your teammate as long as you are on full health when you do so, are right up against them, and they don't move around too much.
@@4FSGaming oh ok got it i can now be useful to my team thanks and by the way love the content you have a bright future with hunt just wait one day it will blow up but untill then keep doing what you doing
Early gang rep!
Huh, look who it is.
I thought of you the other day after getting killed running to extract and not seeing an alert mine next to a red barrel. I remember discussing that on one of your videos before.
@@MrTHotz LOL! Oh no! It wasn't one of mine, I hope? 🤣
@@HazmatFTW Haha no but I did check just in case. Must be one of your disciples.
Tbh felt sorry for the guy who placed it as he was already dead (not able to spectate them) so he never got to know he got me (with the bounty) before I extracted.
7:26 Was that good timing or was he doing something to put the fire out?
I had to wait until the fire extinguished to put him out, because I'd just prestige so no chokes. I think he might have lost a bar because of it.
@@4FSGaming I figured. I was just making sure that I hadn't missed a way to manually put fires out.
loved 10:30
A video with diagrams and examples of sight lines relating to rotations and flanks would be amazingly helpful. Love your content Ascendance. I see a new 4FS gaming video, I click.
How do you feel about specialization? In other words alwaya using the same loadout. Realizing this chnages the role of a player, i am much better at supporting my team members then rushing a boss fight like im collecting a lottery check. Knowing which weapons i am better with and my role allows me to be a better team member vs. being the first one shot down. Thoughts?
You can play Hunt however you want, there's no requirement to mess around with different loadouts. I personally would be extremely bored if I didn't switch up what I was using constantly.
The only issue with playing "support" is that you have to be confident in your ability to clutch 2v1 fights at close range when your teammates push up and get killed, unless you go with them in those instances.
Your right. It depends on how my partners are moving, if they are diving right into a push then this does quickly change the support role. But if they are probing then it becomes easier to hit the windows with a Mosin or Lebel for those peepers.
Gotta say that I love your tips and guide videos but I have this bad habbit of spacing out when the things on screen doesnt directly apply to what You're saying. So what I'm trying saying is maybe refer more to whats happening like when you pushed lair at Windy Runs.
Thanks for the tip! I'll keep it in mind.
I hope he makes video on how to succeed as rando teammate 😳
it gets that old times placed games dont have full auto guns
7:30 some might even say you are a master bater
Hard for me to bait players when I just get bopped from no where
haha 3:18, that double melee rush attempt. Jeez. Had she stabbed your head you would dead.
It's the first time I've seen a double knife rush fail!
@11:51 was my moto from LoL and DotA2
It is better for the whole team to do the wrong thing together, than half of the team to the wrong thing and the other watch them die.
You can't stop someone from making a bad play, but you can assist in that play to make it less bad.
Anyone know the name of the music at the end of the video?
Made for the channel years ago in Garage Band, It's file name is "4FS_Intro" haha
@@4FSGaming dude time to upload a music video on the channel titled "4FS_Intro" haha. but seriously, release the extended remix.
I also have a particular set of skills.
Anyone else have dark country music playing quietly in the bg?
m8 what is your rig, I want to have the same fps
This was recorded on a 2070 super with a Ryzen 9 3900X.
3:18 lmfao i would be so mad if i was their third and they didnt get the kill. why would you rush a man with a shotgun to try the melee. absolute mad lads
"Just camping in one spot and hoping someone will run pass your bush or building rarely works..." This is Asia server in a Nutshell if you don't believe me go give it shot, it's sad.
Free tip: if your team mate starts crouching at spam location, just leave map and find another team. Belive me, you will get mad to play with these idiots. So sick of these imbeciles that do nothing but crouch for 40 minutes, no push, no help, not even diversion. They hide in one place and it's a miracle if the even get to shoot one time per match. Then you see them on forum talking about their K/D rations and ELO. It's been hundreads of times now when I push a team and I keep both enemy busy, most of the time I kill one and get the other under half life. If I get I get killed in the end and I switch to my team mate, he is crouching some where a mile away from the location he was when the fight started.
For a good team mate, diversion is all you need to do. Just help your team mates, always flank, always support. If you crouch in a corner while your team mate is fighting two enemies, never play this game again, just go minecraft.
OAfancy and he’s bro, hackers or pros hahah seems to be the talk of the town 😅
Do you know when the new map drops for console?
Hunt made a Twitter post that said mid august
@@mattt1939 thanks, I should install Twitter
@@fast-drawdonnie8340 I don't have it but someone put a screenshot in a hunt group chat I'm in on ps4

How many hunt coins do have?
Between 4000 and whatever I'm at when I hit 100. I tend to prestige almost immediately.
The vet and pax clip is something he's used before...I mean it's hot but still
I realized I'd cleaned out a lot of footage recently and didn't have much flank footage, so had to reuse unfortunately.
Essential Tactic Number 6: Don't be a shitter
Tactic #1: don’t be that guy that sits a mile away from his team to try and “snipe” at shitty angles way out of your weapons range. Similarly don’t sit in a bush for 30 minutes straight because you don’t have the balls to ever push. Both your team and the enemy team will hate you with a passion since you’re annoying and wasting loads of time without ever doing anything useful and people like myself will simply not revive you or abandon you and extract. Just don’t.
4FS Gaming pls dont do this kind of videos. Now the noobs are getting better 😂
I need to make an April fools vid next year with bad tips.
This is all good buuuuuuut..... you could just run uppercut fanning with explosive ammo lol
I could but I'm on PC so I'd lose.
No advice can help I've played this game solid and I'm as bad as I was wene I started its reaction time and feels like literally everyone has guns which fire fkn lazer beams and feels like literally anyone can hit me from 5 miles away head shot with a potato gun if I replicate anything shoot strafing jumping etc I get hit more its a game were you ither have it or you don't if you don't just delete and move on 😢😔
I know many people who start in this position but pull themselves up to become quite competent players. Hunt is a game where as long as you learn one new thing from every death you will get there eventually!
Ugh, I hate watching a video where I do all these things pretty well, I think. I'm a big brain player who always wants to get better.
But the truth is: my mechanics are garbage and they'll probably never get better. ;)
No offence I really tried to get into this game, but man is the pace slow, nearly fall asleep, shame cause visually the game is legendary, but man that pace of the gameplay is granny slow, no wonder their isn’t a pro league.
Beginners tend to play with a lot of caution, the pace increases a lot as you become more confident
@@4FSGaming your right man, I need to be stronger
Once your mmr goes up the games are faster:) Just run towards gunshots while moving like in a fight(with cover in mind), and you will get your fights:)
What are these paid actors XD
Great stuff, thanks a lot! I or better we often still struggle to push effectively. So some more push details would be appreciated. Even without diagrams... 🤠
