Rats are everywhere

[Peanuts Ueda]

Lotta people complain about cheaters, but rats are an actual real problem in this game. Please can we have some sort of mechanic that discourages or punishes ratting? They're so boring and annoying to play against it's not even funny

The whole point of Bounty Hunt mode is to be sneaky, rat, hide, third party, and try to ambush. It's not about an even or fair fight, it's about taking any opportunity present to your advantage for the first shot or kill.

What you should be asking is if they can make another game mode. A separate game mode called "Compound Shootout" where it spawns in two teams of opposite side of compound with basic gear and it's five minute timer and a 4v4 . This would be fun to play when I'm taking a break from Bounty Hunt. But the problem is a mode like this might become way too popular and threaten the main mode of the game.

Most fun games are in the 3*-4* MMR, chaotic PvP. 5*+ are the rat fcks, it's boring

Go play COD.

I disagree and I'm sure most if not all of the Crytek Partners who play this game religiously would also disagree. Half of the time when there's rats, I just walk away from them with the bounty and in hand and extract since most of them don't even get to the bounty first because they're ratting so hard they slow themselves down. The problem arises when there's multiple rat teams at the bounty lair and you literally can't go outside without getting shot.

I would agree that a new gimmicky game mode such as Gun Game or something would be nice, but that doesn't really fix the problem since I want to play Bounty Hunt mainly.

no one owes you a playstyle

[Amigo]

This game is like Warhammer Vermintide. Except you dont get to kill them because they kill YOU. Rats always win.

[scy]

no.

[Risk Management]

The only problem is your perception of what the game must be. It is designed for all kinds of play styles. I love going solo and I have to use every "rat" technique to my advantage.

[Apox]

that why i stop playing with randoms is not fun and as a solo u need to play like a big rat

[Nryrony]

Well it can be fun sometimes shooting every zombie I see with a Winfield and fire ammo, attracting half the map by doing so…

But yeah, there is a reason for soundsystem and all the sound traps.

Every element of the game encourages a careful silent approach as well as good observation skills.

Running is always a risk but sneaking might make you an easy target and will slow you down.

What you do with that is up to the players.

[warhorsenumber4]

Hiding, listening and being patient is a huge part of this game.

[drumroll]

Perhaps Apex would be more befitting of your tastes?

Then just wait for them to bump into eachother and start fighting so you can make a move?
Could take a while but it's either that or running out into a hail of bullets.

This games is about ratting, hence all the bushes etc. It's also a place that failed CS players can be 6 star high kd because they can shoot little noobs who are randoms and just trying to make money.

Or rich noobs that actually care about the bounty, killing the boss and running away with it. No need for a kill…
