r/HuntShowDownConsole
First time playing Hunt Showdown, a Hacker killed me after i shot him two times and didn't hurted him. Not playing ts anymore.
What the title says. I played the tutorial and went to do my first mission or whatever it's called and after killing 3 players (although one got scared after i shot him and fell off a roof and died after the fall) i took the token and while i was planning my escape i say a player walking very slowly, holding two guns directly to me. I shot him TWO TIMES he didn't even flinched and then one-shotted me. What an amazing first impression.
Not playing ts game anymore after this, thanks.
A new beetle idea, but seriously, hear me out
The past few games I've played recently have been cut short due to indoor campers. This made me think, what could help an outdoor team infiltrate or at least subdue a indoor team?
Beetles arr good for this, but they are easily shot, and people abuse them a lot too and use them as weapons, not tools.
The beetle im thinking about does not fly and does not do any damage at all. It is called the infiltrating beetle.
The infiltrating beetle is a group of beetles that come out of 1 egg. The egg must be placed on the ground, and after 3 seconds it pops open, revealing 3 different beetles. A small, medium, and large beetle
The large beetle will break doors, windows, shutters, and can crawl on walls. It will shriek and scream very loud as its doing so, deafening any players in a building. It will the crawl inside and charge players, causing them to be knocked over. It can dodge, and like the hellhound, it had a tough shell, making it difficult and time consuming to kill. It will pull attention away from the outside team, giving them new angles and a less difficult way inside.
The medium beetle will only come out after the large beetle has died. It sneaks inside and throws choke clouds at players, then rotates and shoots more clouds at other players. If a player kills it, it will shriek, deafening players and it will spew large choke clouds everywhere.
The smallest beetle springs into action and acts as a flash bomb. It will crawl inside and jump on players, splitting into large groups of bugs that cover the screen, similar to that of the Assassin.
The beetles can not be used outside, as they are scared of sunlight/moonlight. The largest beetle can travel outside, but it will be much slower. Medium and small beetles can only be outside for the maximum for 6 seconds, meaning you have to place the egg close to a building.
Only 1 egg can be carried at a time by a team.
Im still working on some ideas and refining their capabilities, but what do you guys think?
Sledgehammer and Derringer kill? Hell yea!
Small Playstation, Xbox, and PC streamers/content creators
Hunt is a very small game, with an even smaller game base. with that said, many people (like me) who post content about Hunt have trouble getting their names and posts out to the community. Even big streamers and creators like Retry, Rexnor, RatchaZ and FireWitch74 have trouble getting their content far. So, use this post to try and get more followers, support, and just people who watch content consistently.
Put your main name that you go under on all platforms, and I'll follow it, and vice versa!

Beginner's guide
So I got the game on the monthly ps plus catalog and went to look up a beginner's guide on YouTube cause my brother said that I would probably need one. I only saw videos that were as recent as 8 months ago but I looked up when the latest major content update was and it said only 4 months. Is the changes in June major enough that I need to stay away from older videos or should I be ok with watching the 8 month old video.
They had every reason to win, and still fell to the mighty Derringer💪 (and Crossbow)
They had every odd stacked in their favor. I was distracted, I had my headset off AND I couldn't even see them. Plus one had the Cyclone. Once again, Meta doesn't beat skill (or luck, and in ny case i had a whole lawn of 4-leaf clovers)
New Player (Ps Plus Sub)
Hey guys I’m looking forward to checking out the game for the first time with it being made a monthly ps+ game. I don’t come from a hardcore extraction background but did play Arc Raiders and Marathon but definitely fell out with both due to repetition.
Arc initially grasping me, I enjoyed the challenge the arc was early on and really felt immersed in the atmosphere, but felt the end game wasn’t there for me (trials and not much else) and didn’t have the type of content updates I was looking for, and eventually got bored of the pve type of community as the game started to feel like a couch game.
Marathon I feel never landed with me, I was hyped at the aesthetic but the maps always felt empty and lifeless to me, and definitely didn’t get the same immersed feeling I had with Arc at one point, the ai were no type of challenge and not interesting to fight, the community dwindle and content was drip-fed.
Now with Active Matter popping up i’ve been eyeing it and have been tempted but hearing it doesn’t feel like a proper console port and also hearing it doesn’t feel smooth on controller has been my only turn off.
So I guess i’m just wondering do you guys think I should give Hunt a go with it being free now? Do you guys think with my background I’ll enjoy the game? If you have any similar experiences or stories to share i’d be open to that and also any tips/advice before downloading and jumping into some Hunt Showdown as a complete new player!
Stop spawning teams on top of each other!!!
Crytek is full of fucking retards.
Join Hunter's Outpost!
Hey everyone,
We just launched a brand new console-only Hunt Discord server called Hunter's Outpost, and we're looking for Xbox and PlayStation players to help us grow.
We set this up specifically to give console players a dedicated, toxicity-free space to find reliable teammates. If you're looking for a match, all you have to do is drop into our dedicated Hunt channel and request an LFG. Since Hunt features crossplay between Xbox and PS5, we use Discord voice channels to make communicating across platforms completely seamless.
Whether you're a seasoned 6-star veteran or a brand new player, everyone is welcome. We also discuss controller settings, share clips, and help newer players learn the maps without any judgment. The only major requirement is that you have a microphone for LFG, as communication is everything in the bayou.
If you're tired of running solo or playing with randoms, come join us and help build this new community from the ground up!
Hope to see you all in the Bayou! https://discord.gg/mgTVdPgmJA
