Really tired of getting matched with Prestige 50+ people when i've barely prestiged once...
Fix the matchmaking, for ♥♥♥♥♥ sake..
Just recently got into the game, and it's quickly becoming a miserable game to play because we always get matched up against these people with hundreds of hours in the game. One guy was prestige level 93 with over 2000 hours in the game.... Thanks for that.

MM is just one issue, the other is Headshots are way way out of control. There is NO weapon sway in this game, non. You can jump, duck, ADAD and do cartwheels and that aim will never be affected. Another issue is Filters that people cheat with in fog or night matches.... there are many more but atm these are the ones off the top of my head.

yup, and it seems the game is becomming more and more uplayable with each new patch. I'm usually one of the guys that supported alot of their changes, but lately... My tipping point was releseing a paid DLC with a Broken hunter, just a bad sign of where things are going

Used to be decent weapon sway... was removed in 1.0.

Game was much better pre 1.0, alot
of things have been fixed and thats great and all but I will never understand why the weapon sway was practically removed and then reimplemented at a later date but nothing even near what it used to be.. the weapon sway made actual long distance combat exhilarating?Now gun fights last 15 seconds and youre one tapped by the Karabiner and its just a gg. Now if im missing a small bar I dont even wanna engage in long range fights because I will get lasered by any gun... its not impressive or rewarding anymore.

I've barely ever liked any updates since 0.6. Not that would ever happen, but a 0.6 mode would be all I'd wish for. You know, the same game I actually bought at the time.

I don't know why muliplayer games these days feel the need to change/add stuff that completely alters or goes against the original vision. Sure, it might peak interest for a little while but that will soon die down. Seems an endless and potentially damaging cycle, which is already evident as I know many moved on around the time of official release because of those reasons.

There's little skill required now. Its largely run and gun spam or easy body shots.

It catters to the minority of the playerbase, the Twitch-reflex-CoD players. you know, the ones that want 'Hardcore' mode yet anything that actually makes the game 'Hardcore' they are 100% aganst, but in full support of glitches that help them keep their KDA epeen up. They scream the loadest and just like in real life, they are heard and treated to.

I've been matched against Delacroix streamer yesterday in trios. He's 4M total bounty, prestige 100, KDA 3+.
I'm total bounty ~300K, prestige 8, KDA 1.2.
And yes of course he killed me. :)

match makings disabled because
1. "not enough players"
2. "bad advertising when streamers have to wait to get a match"
3. "There' to many players"
4."there never was any to begin with"

Pick one

Can I pick an option where I don't get matched in with a prestige rank 23 when i'm just barely approaching prestige 2? Thanks.

All i'm saying is, any new players who are trying to get into this game are going to be disinterested in staying around. There's 10-15k players on the game... They can fix matchmaking to not do this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Full stop.

1. never goin to get any if you stomp the ever liveing hell out of them day 1 in the swamp

2. No advertiseing at all you mean, streamers are one thing. but they only cover a very small number of gamers. I have alot of friends that watch steams all the time and they never heard of hunt till i mentioned it to them. Crytec, put some of that DLC money into actual advertiseing. its simple business 101.

3. Lol actually made me laugh on that one

4. now this one, this is the one right here.

Plain and simple, Crytek likes this current system because it enables their high ranking players who are more likely to buy the DLC they release. Which is really about the only thing Crytek releases for this game these days.

Not to mention, matchmaking aside, it's apparent that Crytek also enables cheaters. Why else would Crytek allow players profiles to remain hidden in game so someone cannot report a player they suspect of cheating, to Steam.

All in all, this game will never gain serious traction with all these problems. If I didn't purchase it in Alpha and I bought it today, I definitely would have returned it.

thats exactly the wrong assumption. most people are here cause its something new and unique, not another CoD/fortnight rip-off. You look through these forums and you'll see a million uses of the words 'hardcore' and 'elite' players, well the game started with more hardcore combat in mind. Now granted, Hunt will probily never reach the level of popularity of CoD/Fortnight, but thats cause those games are immediate success reaction with no ability/skill needed. Hunt takes time to learn and master, which makes the experence more rewarding. Well, that is till it becomes CoD in the swamp.
