Hoping you guys can help. I play all my games through a headset but whenever a person uses voice chat on evolve the sound comes from my monitor. I have tried checking both the game and windows options but I can't find anything. Nothing on official forums and this is the only game it happens on. Halp

>>150684953
try completely deactivating your monitor as an audio option in the sound options?

Is it worth placing down mines as Markov if you can shoot the monster in the back with your assault rifle instead?

>>150684953
Set ur headset as your "Default communication device" under playback devices

>>150686668
Always put more mines unless its a kraken

anyone wanna team up?

Barely tf2 and league. Looking for something good like evolve

The FUCK do you do against a good Goliath?

Most will hit Stage 2 before the first dome and even if they are captured if you just save your hurdles for the second the dome falls the armor and heal will mean you won't suffer any real damage.

I've been cheated twice as monster today, insta killed soon as dropship opens and again with a markov bursting my hp for loads of damage.
I guess every kiddie is now googling for epik evolve hacks.

And of course this happens just as I'm near my first 10 win streak.

So I was in a match with a Torvald, Jack who didn't use his repulsor Val and Bucket.

Now I'm not 100% certain on Bucket's turrets, but they+torvald can't drop goliaths armor in 4 seconds at stage 3 can they? Afterwards the damage slowed down significantly until I killed 2 people when it picked up hugely again. This was a cheat, right?

>>150704432
>val
I meant Q Caira. I was laughing at their lineup but I was taking a shit load of damage 24/7

>>150704432
If bucket's turrets can take advantage of weak points, it might be plausible
Otherwise something's fishy

>>150695461
Tryhard premade I guess? I know what you mean I've seen these goliaths go super sonic around the map and juke us then pop up 200m away in less than 10 seconds. They hit stage 2 literally a minute after the game has started it's pretty bullshit but so is good hunter teams too.

>>150704575
If you aren't running full dmg reduction perks q caria can amplify dmg on you by almost 3x, all the time. She's also a support and healer in 1.

>>150704586
Yeah, bucket's turrets can hit weak points, but it's unreliable.

>>150704586
they specifically target weak points with aimbot levels of accuracy.

>>150704735
Well that sounds rather annoying to deal with at relays.

>lose because yet another waggie retard stops playing mid match and just hangs around at relay
>only because the assault called him out for being shit
>would have won if they didn't essentially ragequit from one comment
>then the retard medic tries to start shit with me at the end when we lose just because we have one retard who gave up on the game

that's it, even if it means it takes 10 minutes longer to find a game I am dodging all Waggies

I can't believe I was actually enjoying some matches yesterday but now today it's nothing idiots and total shitters

>>150704862
It is, I think you just gotta stay out of the red aoe areas she shoots but if you do that then you'll never hit the hunters.
Thinking about it now it's kind of a double edged sword for hunters.
>Stay in aoe healing and dmg amplify area
>Monster can now slap all your shit
etc.

>>150705096
Wait her damage grenades amplify the damage you take?

>>150704862
It's not. Just kill her. She's literally the squishiest medic.

Well I'm talking out of my ass tbqh since I haven't read her abilities yet but it's the only explanation I can think of since I just had a game with qcaira + blitz and I accidentally hit one of markovs fully charged mines and it took half my armour with just 1 of those things.

>>150705498
You got four options.
Maggie, Jack Griffin and Aesthetic Griffin.

Bring the shit head to the ground with harpoons or boost above it as jack and kamehameha the dunkass to the ground. A kraken on the ground is an easy kill.

Remove "Elder" part.

>>150706615
Everyone will say don't play ekraken because he's piss easy to beat but fuck them he is fun to play as.
I usually go movespeed/dmg reduct/brawler but only because I don't have perks like cooldown reduct yet, just do whatever can't go wrong with dmg reduct.
Tips would be only use missle when you have a hunter pinned to a wall or your right in their face, also lightning doesn't slow you down when using it so it's a nice wildlife killer.

>>150706668
Never, but i want to see a 70% monster 30% kala support hunter.

Also: Is trapper the hunter with less responsability in the team now? The only thing that must do is spawn scan every time...

>>150707235
Least responsibility? Maybe. Supports usually don't do shit but shield the retard being hit where as trappers need to properly use CC.

>>150705498
where is this from?

>>150708006
stage 1?

>>150708006
In stage 1 there was tubes with captured monsters in them. You're not the only monster on the planet, there's hundreds/thousands. You play as an Alpha though.

Not certain if they're on maps in Stage 2 however.

>>150708153
The wraith's still in the tube on Wraith Trap. I don't think any of the other current maps feature trapped monsters

If so they kicked my ass a couple days back, dropped my armor like it was fucking nothing, thought it was cheats.

Full Armor bar in 4 seconds

Torvald's mortar equal to barrage but you need to take whole batch to get 2 bars removed. Only with amplifier it is possible to burn more but even so you never can take whole batch due to spread.

So yeah fishy

Silver: Lithium Battery = 20% increased Jetpack Recharge rate
Gold: Borhium Battery = 40% increased Jetpack Recharge rate

Total 60% Jetpack recharge is amazing and fine to use on any Hunter. Cooldown reduction for monsters is pretty much in the same boat.

>>150717028
If you won against Wraith that means you've played against utter retard.

I tried to play Wraith yesterday and Abduct + Decoy started combo was easy kill in all 7 games. I don't even recall when it so easy to tank with Wraith. Hunters had to spend precious time to kill the Decoy and these few secodn sere enough fro me to abduct the weakest character and down it. Repeat until done with every one. Even these that managed to recover would get too much strieks by the end so they can't sustain fight. Also, Decoy deals around 15-20% Hp damage and managed tod own a few hunters alone while they were trying to kill it kek

And then I got bored.

>>150717465
grounder perks?

>>150717457

No, it is around minute or so, I couldn't test myself because retards kept killing it. But the one I tried to drag behind me stayed for minute until medic killed it.

>>150717704
There's no battery perk for Bronze tier, but there's the fuel tank perk for 15% better Jetpack efficiency.

Alternatively the 5% movement speed in Bronze is alright too.

I do not recommend buying any Bronze perks, they're way too easy to unlock with all the free hunter rotations.

I'm also pissed about the '!' mark the monster gets when it is harpooned. Harpoons punished monsters who got tunnel vision and made them briefly panic when they stopped moving. Now an inattentive monster player gets a big fucking sign over its head saying 'oi shit head you got harpooned'.

>>150718073
5% recharge is really low for a whole perk slot. That jump height it adds on it's own is near useless, only works when stacked with other jump perks.

Now 15% fuel efficiency is a good looking number. The 5% movement speed perk also adds a bit of distance to your thrusts, in addition no crossing the map a tiny bit faster on foot.

>>150701676
are you too much of a scrub to manage playing two characters?

>>150718325
It really wasn't hard to tell you were harpooned before. When you're not moving anymore that's a sign of it. This change was for new players.

You can switch to the trapper and they'll be 200 meters away running in circles, you get them back on track and switch back to your assault only to find it doing the exact same fucking thing.
The AI in this game is dog shit.

>>150720410

Its Waggie free week friendo.

>>150720881
Hey, TRS thinks laz is the best medic followed by QCaira.
After this week they will probably proclaim that Waggie is best trapper.

>>150720174
what's there to set up?

I don't know why I stopped dodging. Even against low hour count monsters shit like QC just doesn't work. Unless they are literally retarded monster players. Like not merely bad but actually just smashing their face against the keyboard while screaming potato.

What an awful character.

Gotta dodge every QC and Waggie. Only mentally challenged people pick such awful things.

>>150721003
But the spread sheets show she is the SECOND BEST MEDIC IN THE GAME

>>150720881

would you say being able to revive hunters by healing them up is too overpowered?

I've been "playing" for about 3 hours today and I've only managed to play 3 fucking games.

Between people leaving and having to dodge Laz/Qaira/Kala/Waggie/Torvald or 2k hours played monster pub stompers I literally spend more time trying to find a fucking game than playing.

Probably. So far theyve been trying to do the "take away the trappers cc for damage" meme when the only reason trappers exist is to cc the monster.

His grenades probably explode and his shotgun does a shit slow like Egriffins

Dunno what the dart'll be. Maybe it applies a dot and an outline of the monster like Rvals poison tranq

>>150722351
variations should not be better than the original, just different
Rabe will be no exception, BUT at least he doesn't look like he is from another universe or from the local comic con

>>150731469

They are way too stuck up with the head up their asses to fix her.
Her basic design does not fit the gameplay at all since it encourages staying in an area instead of properly dodging abilities and damage that will never be outhealed by her pathetic output.

in order to get around this either disable the overlay, or just hit shift whenever you tab back in.

Umm... no it is not. Even the truster +5% is better than fuel efficiency if you want to dodge.

why do hunter players hate monster players so much?

do monster players hate hunter players too?

>>150748261
40% damage reduction essentially means 40% more armor and health. this also makes any armor you regen significantly more valuable since you're basically granted an extra 40% for free. It's fucking ridiculous that monsters get that much damage reduction while hunters get like 13% with two tiers.

Because it is too generalized, it serves no purpose. You cannot utilize it at full strength.

You either pick up the recharge to dodge or fuel efficiency to flutter. There is no point to make it "balanced".


Check scrim archives here ch.tv/puggims/profile - on0be of the last contains example of tinker Sunny where monster complain "she is a tank"

>>150748403
Mainly because the monster doesn't have to put up with the retarded shit of other players, in fact he directly benefits from it.
If the monster is acting like hot shit, when your teammates are doing basic mistakes, it's easy to be mad at a faggot who thinks he is hot shit, but only won because billy the glue sniffer helped him out.

>>150748261
>>150748448

GET WAGGIE OFF MY FUCKING TEAM REEEEEEE

>>150754968
spiders have less about 100hp why don't you shoot them when they get planted?

>>150754968
If you're someone like markov, sunny, parnell, lennox, bucket, anyone with Aoe, I can guarantee you taking 3 seconds to shoot the spider for your team will do more good than anything else. The problem arise when you're val or hank-, and it takes more than one shot on a small fast target to kill it with a hitscan weapon.

>>150755081

she's maggie, but even shittier.

So here's a question

what happens when the monster tunnel visions onto the medic? It's literally a foolproof plan for me, but how can I stop it from happening as a hunter? I usually play trapper.

>>150755235
>>150755305
I tend to play Trapper/Support whenever I don't play monster myself. When I do I play crow/hank. Both are characters that don't have a good time hitting that race car of a spider.

>>150756349
you can't really force a monster to switch targets. all you can do is your job, be it healing, shielding, damaging, CCing, or dodging.

>>150756484
you can shoot it when it's planted, before it starts running around. my best advice is to get a buddy to play hyd, or just play him yourself, and everytime you see a spider go out get a gas bomb on it.

Parnell + Cabot is such a dream combo, I ship them now

>>150759682
current dome mechanics just means the monster will get away faster, but it will still have more than enough time to get a strike on val.

what is the most preferred hunter role? I want to increase my odds of getting monster immediately while solo in queue so I don't have to waste as much time dodging.

>>150758617
The hunter free lineup is like the perfect tryhard team except it lacks hank

Anyone got tips for how to make it hard for the monster to hit you, specifically as Val (regular) inside domes. Now that she's the rotation choice and since she's only one i'd bought, I don't have any other choice but to play her if i'm medic.

Mostly it feels like I can't escape any monsters. If I boost away they can follow, if I try to fly up a cliff they knock me down before I make it or just climb up at same speed or faster and it gets me nowhere. There must be some trick to this because I have, as monster, had people do really well at evading me before but i'm too scrub for it.

>>150761480
its a team game. when your assaults dont block rocks or when your support can't shield you, its gg inside domes sooner or later

general tipps are: only boost away to avoid speical attacks, like charge, lightning strikes or rocks. you can't outrun a monster that wants to focus you anyway, you might as well save your dodges for real hurtfull attacks

try to fight around pillars, rocks or houses you can run around. it helps sometimes and can block some attacks. the cliff trick wont save you against a good monster
