    The gunplay is frustrating. I've been playing FPS games for a quarter of a century, and the gunplay is just crap. This is aggravated by the fact that there's no practice mode, permadeath is enforced, and you will be paired against max-level players regardless of your skill.

    Oh, and want to solo? You'll be put in a match against teams. 0/10 rating for unforgivably frustrating gameplay    The gunplay is frustrating.

    Tja was soll man über Hunt: Showdown schon sagen? Etwa dass die Kämpfe brutal und erbarmungslos sind? Oder die Lernkurve zwischen X- und Y-Achse ein fast gerader Strich nach oben ist? Sicherlich ein bisschen von beidem. Entscheidend aber ist, dass Hunt: Showdown ein über alle Maßen atmosphärisches Spiel ist... zumindest wenn man es mit einem entsprechenden Headset spielt. Dann aber wirdTja was soll man über Hunt: Showdown schon sagen? Etwa dass die Kämpfe brutal und erbarmungslos sind? Oder die Lernkurve zwischen X- und Y-Achse ein fast gerader Strich nach oben ist? Sicherlich ein bisschen von beidem. Entscheidend aber ist, dass Hunt: Showdown ein über alle Maßen atmosphärisches Spiel ist... zumindest wenn man es mit einem entsprechenden Headset spielt. Dann aber wird Hunt zu einem audiovisuellen Meisterwerk und man könnte es fast soweit treiben, das Spiel ohne hinzusehen zu spielen, da es sich so viel über den Ton gibt. Davon würde ich aber aufgrund dessen abraten, da man durchaus sehr präzise, teils auf große Distanzen schießen muss. Die Grafik ist bestimmt kein Meilenstein wie einst Crysis, kann aber mit entsprechende Hardware trotzdem gut aussehen und dabei angemessene Frames auf den Bildschirm zaubern. Das Spiel lässt sicher aber auch problemlos auf älterer Hardware spielen, da es nicht besonders hohe Systemleistungen erfordert. Klar gibt es aktuell mit nur drei spielbaren Karten nicht die riesem Auswahl wie bei einem COD oder anderen Shooterkonkurrenten. Das braucht das Spiel aber auch nicht, da jedes Match von Grund auf anders abläuft und so viel Spannung herrscht, dass die Maps fast zur Nebensache verkommen. Auch die vier Bosse die es zu jagen gilt, sind alle unterschiedlich designed und haben verschieden Fähigkeiten und erfordern verschiedene Herangehensweisen. Vorteilhaft ist es aber, wenn man sich stets leise verhält. Denn ein zu lautes Auftreten kann einem raschen imgame Tod zur Folge haben. Und eure Jäger, einmal getötet, bleiben Tod und ihr müsst von vorne anfangen. Die ist besonders ärgerlich da man mit jedem Jägerstufenaufstieg verschieden Sonderfähigkeiten freischaltet, die euren Jäger noch effizienter machen. So kann dieser z.B. aus einem Medipack mehr Heilung herausziehen oder mit einem sogenannten Hahnspannrevolver schneller schießen. Diese Fähigkeiten werden nach und nach in eurem Arsenal freigeschaltet. Startet ihr mit eurem Profil zunächst auf Level 1, habt ihr bis Level 11 eine Schonfrist und eure Jäger (die unabhängig davon bis Level 50 aufsteigen können) leiden nicht unter dem berüchtigtem Dauertod. Danach allerdings schon. So steigt ihr also bis Level 100 auf und schaltet dabei allerhand neue Fähigkeiten, Waffen und Ausrüstungsgegenstände wie Dynamit, Gegengiftspritzen oder Stolperfallen frei. Diese Tools richtig eingesetzt, können euren Jägeralltag aber auch etwas angenehmer machen. Zuletzt noch ein Wort zum Support des Spiels. Hier werden von Crytek regelmäßig sogenannte Mini DLC's releases. Diese beinhalten meistens einen legendären Jäger und alternative Waffenskins. Alles also vernachlässigbar und rein kosmetischer Natur. Die Highlites hingegen sind die großen Events, bei denen man ebenfalls legendäre Jäger und Waffenskins freischalten kann, ohne dabei echtes Geld ausgeben zu müssen. Das Fortschrittssystem ist dabei fair und auch in der vorgegebenen Zeit sollte es auch jeder Durchschnittsspieler schaffen, entsprechend weit zu kommen. Abschließend bleibt also nur noch zu sagen, dass mir das Spiel auch nach 500 Spielstunden noch großen Spaß bereitet und jeder Abschuss ein sehr befriedigendes Gefühl verbreitet. Auf neue Maps und Bosse muss man zwar zu weilen lange warten, aber dafür sind diese dann auch sehr durchdacht und bringen ihre ganz eigenen kleinen Mechaniken und Feinheiten mit.

    This game can offer such atmosphere and excitement, which no other game can. It is a very unique take on fps / battle royale genre with a slower pace. Weapon mechanics are trying to be very close to realism and after you get used to it (which takes a short while), it brings much joy to shoot with the weapons. The game objective can offer many unique encounters with enemy players.

    The negative side is the not so huge player base but with many veteran players (I play it pretty often and there are many players with 5-10x of playtime). It can get frustrating, if you get one-shotted multiple times from very far away. There could also content updates more often.

    I play in EU and have close to zero server / game problems. There are some bugs, but none game-breaking. Also I don't think I have encountered many cheaters, just very good players.    … Expand

    As much as Hunt: Showdown gives the impression to be a zombie survival shooter, in reality, it is the true western game.

It takes place in the late 19th century Louisiana and you start as a hunter in a map filled with zombies, bosses (PVE) and numerous other hunters (PVP). You earn hunt dollars and blood bonds with your kills which you can then spend to acquire traits or buy weapons, consumables and skins. Your profile levels up separately from your hunter. Leveling up your hunter will let you equip more traits useful for your survival and when you die, you will lose your hunter, as well as any weapons or consumables in your inventory. Leveling up your profile, on the other hand, lets you “unlock” those traits which you can equip your hunters with. Death does not affect your profile level. This is a good balance in the sense that death does have serious consequences, but not to the point that it’s extremely frustrating. Picking up a new hunter (which you will keep doing) and leveling up is always fun and offers a new challenge.

    When you kill a boss, you will extract a “bounty”, which will also let you see the nearby hunters when using “dark sight”. This gives a huge advantage for besting other hunters, as it is not easy to spot careful hunters. One of the main strengths of Hunt: Showdown is this. It’s not a game about aiming well. In fact, aiming in this game is quite poor when you compare to other multiplayer shooters. It’s about observation, predicting other hunters’ next steps and preparing for them. And when you manage to learn the game enough to kill a hunter by outsmarting them (not a random kill), it feels so satisfying.

    Some words about the sound design. This could be the best video game ever made in that aspect. First, you make sounds by stepping on a branch, walking close to an animal, by pretty much everything unless you make extra effort to be silent. When you make a sound, you attract other hunters to your location. This also means you have to pay attention and listen, use other hunters’ carelessness to your advantage. That said, there is always the chance a hunter is trying to attract you to her/his location as part of a strategy. Oh well…

    There are some weak points about Hunt: Showdown. As discussed earlier, aiming is not so good. There are only a couple of maps. Also, the game is not good at presentation. For a game with such deep mechanics, it does not do a good job educating a new player. I can imagine many players giving up without ever learning all the game mechanics. But if you give it time, learn the game to the point you start outsmarting other hunters, it will give you immense satisfaction.

    Hunt: Showdown is not perfect, but when it clicks, there is nothing quite like it.

    Best multiplayer game out as of now. I highly recommend. The audio is the best in any game and that makes it way more tactical always questioning if someone heard that you scared a crow or shot a gun or even stepped on a tree branch.

For the graphics it is astonishing how good this game looks for an indie game it’s genuinely breathtaking. Compared to big games like apex legends or war zone they pale in comparison to the amount of content a small team can put out in the same timespan as apex they have put out just as many maps in the last six months we have had multiple major events like a new boss a new map and custom ammo. The gunplay is spot on it doesn’t feel unrealistically tight like call of duty the guns feel more like escape from tarkov or insurgency sandstorm. In my 300 hours I have only encountered 0 crashes 3 disconnects and 0 game breaking bugs (or really any bugs in general) pleas do yourself a favor and get this game. The only negative I can really think of is that it is hard… like really really hard. But if you can get through the first couple of hours and understand the game mechanics you will not be disappointed .… Expand

While you can say it's a battle royale and the game has a quickplay mode which was clearly inspired by that genre everything is diffrent than in other BR games. The portrayal of late XIX century Louisiana is amazing and very indepth. Every aspect of the game relies around sound. And you can make a point that a lot of game do that. But not on that scale. Everything in the game makes unique sound. Everything is balanced around your ability to hear. The time period is another thing which makes the game stand out because how many comepetetive and serious FPSes set in the wild west era do you have on market? Not a lot if any at all. The game feels balanced and about 90% of the time you'll feel that the only thing which matters are your actual abilites rather than your or your opponent's loadout. The sci-fi implemented into the game introduces PvE mechanics which make gameplay more interesting and give players objective to fight over rather than just surviving till being the last one alive. The differs so much from other BR games and feels like it had a lot of thought put into it rather than just copy pasting the trends from the past. It's really worth giving it a shot but game itself is 30 euro so I'd rather wait for than paying full price for it. There are DLCs but they're purely cosmetics which don't have any advantage in game. And my only con is that the game can get repetetive after a couple hundred hours but devs are keep on working on the game polishing it to the best of their abilities and adding new features usually in huge content drop updates formula.… Expand

ITS 2020. ALL GAMES SHOULD RUN AT 60FPS. The load times are insane. Even on SSD it takes at least 60 seconds to get to the menu. Between that and the crashing, have fun staring at a loading screen. Might as well play another game while you're waiting for this one to load. The point of playing PC is because you CAN play budget builds and because they are superior in every ways to console.

    second...be prepared to aim your crosshairs at a target, fire, and have it not do anything. it will happen to you ALL THE TIME. and meanwhile, your opponents will ALWAYS get headshots, one shot, the first shot, and you will have no chance to respond. Your opponents will NEVER miss even when you have superior positioning, even when you take initiative, even when you take your time to line up your shots, your opponents will ALWAYS turn (without REALLY knowing where you are) and kill you instantly, even though you carefully setup the scenario by making superior plays to your opponents

    If the actual aiming and firing part wasn't bad enough, your opponents will kill you through solid brick walls and these boxes that are not "penatrable" and other surfaces that bullets cannot penetrate in real life, so hiding in cover or concealment will never work. nice job crytek.

    third...the worst matchmaking ever. as a new player, expect to go up against 3.0 kd tryhards that team up and play together regularly. and as a random match, if you are a 3.0 kd, hardmode on. you will ONLY have level 0 noobs on your team and you will only go up against the same type of before-mentioned scenario.

    crytek, this is the first game i have tried of yours. needless to say, i will never be purchasing one of your products ever again. consistency is what i look for, and this game feels so rough around the edges like you ran out of budget. i have so many videos of just WTF from this garbage game, that you have solidified in me the idea that i will never purchase another product from you ever again.    … Expand

    Hunt: Showdown has a level of complexity that surpasses many other titles, allowing it to excel in areas such as tactics and gunplay.

    A great cooperative shooter that lacks only in matchmaking balance and its slow pace. [Issue#302]

    Hunt: Showdown is a great blend of battle royale and survival horror; one that is an enjoyable, but also unbelievably tense, and merciless gaming experience. Apart from being quite rough around the edges, its unrelenting nature (courtesy of its surprisingly cruel permadeath mechanic), and almost awful matchmaking logic, make this a game for only a few - a few who must put hundreds of work on it, if they don't won't to spend most of their time staring at the words "You're Dead!"
