Hunt: Showdown has evolved into a new 1896 chapter, with new features and full current-gen console upgrades. In the process, both Hunt and CryEngine have bee...
How was that even an upgrade, they removed 2 maps, tanked the performance, increased the matchmaking time tenfold, reduced server performance, screwed up the ranking system, increased skin prices and introduced countless new bugs and crashes. If anything this was a huge downgrade.
They should’ve left Hunt the way it is and released Hunt 2, but they didn’t have the balls because they knew nobody would play that shit. I guess releasing good old fashioned sequels to multiplayer games is bad for business, especially if you’re such an incompetent dev. No, the new school way is to shitify you game in the name of a next gen update, and straight up deny everybody the ability to play the old version, see Overwatch, CS:GO, Squad, Warzone and now Hunt.
And don’t come at me for saying Crytek is incompetent. Incompetent is the most polite thing they can be called. What they’be done is straight up malicious. You know how I know? Because you could sit me down, 8 hours a day 5 days a week, and my whole job for months would be nothing but to come up with the most dogshit UI possible, and I couldn’t even come close to what they’ve decided to release. They must’ve had a whole TEAM of “experts” working 24/7 on that.
I swear I wish Steam would introduce a new rule. 2 hour refund window resets after every major parch, just to put the devs and publishers on a leash, when it comes to fucking up the product people have already paid for.
They didn’t remove them permanently. They just removed them to rework them for the new engine. Besides, with the new map coming out I wouldn’t have wanted to play the old ones we’ve been playing for the past years
tanked the performance
I’m only having issues in 1 or 2 compounds otherwise it’s the same performance as before on my end
increased the matchmaking time tenfold
Haven’t been my experience at all. Maybe it’s a region thing but east coast has no matchmaking time difference
reduced server performance
That part has indeed been more noticeable, but only had maybe 4 games where servers went to crap since the update
screwed up the ranking system
They haven’t change the ranking system with the update. Are you referring to the change that happened back this summer ?
If so, that change has been great. Solo sweat lords that derank on purpose to try and stomp noobs was fuckib wack. Now they get to stay in their place where they should be.
increased skin prices
They’ve been doing that for quite a while. What does it have to do with the engine upgrade ?
introduced countless new bugs and crashes
Yeah true, but all games have those. Hunt is neither better nor worse then others on that front. They sure should’ve done a test server before deploying the engine upgrade, but who knows why they didn’t.
The rest of your post is just pointless to entertain a discussion.
