hunt is an endless cycle of "meh. i feel like opening hunt, killing some hunters and getting some bounty" then after a few matches of absolutely getting ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ on by slugs, avto, camping shotguns & mosin snipers w spitzer, u maybe take a break. then u come back. then repeat. u realize that u will forever be addicted to this game because of how unique it is.

after realizing the dreadful fact about hunt, you have options now. either become one of the many shotgun slugs / mosin sniper spizter users and camp in a bush for 30 mins (dont forget leaving your teammates to die) OR become the change you wish to see... the player that pushes, the player that doesnt farm your rando teammates, the player that is rare to see.

after discussing your options on which hunter you want to become, notice the pros and cons of each.
pros of becoming a bush warrior (and the other things we mentioned): nothing
cons of becoming a bush warrior : frowned upon, you will never get gain a better performance, -reps, most of the time you will end up dying anyways, question your self worth after realizing what scum youve become, sad/mad often.
pros of becoming a pusher/better player in general : your gameplay will get better with each fight, you learn more and have a better chance at clutch moments, and be happier overall because you gave it your best shot and maybe even get compliments. people will envy you because of ur sexy moments. overall you get stronger!
cons of becoming a pusher/better player in general : nothing..

acceptance is a necessary key to hunt if you don't want to lose your ♥♥♥♥. I have 2 thousand hours into hunt and am nearly prestige 100. after many, many, many, many, ♥♥♥♥♥♥ and questionable matches, i have gained a tolerance. a tolerance to the sweaty players, and a tolerance to toxicity. trust me, as someone in the 5-6 star range often, this isn't rare. before, when I first started this game, I had many struggles because hunt was the first game i ever played in which the main focus was shooting and different damages dealt depending on what you used, etc.. so when i first started, the game was confusing, which led to me sucking more than usual. eventually, i got better, and so did my game play. (from 0.69KD to 1.40KD) do NOT LET HUNT SHOWDOWN GET TO YOUR EMOTIONS! once you start feeling anything but joy when playing, they've already won. remember: NO ONE CARES. once you get into the mindset that no one cares about how you're preforming because they are most likely worrying about how they're preforming, things get a bit easier. having a careless mindset leads to better emotions and better gameplay. you can't get upset if you lose because you just don't care.

remember that hunt is a game. you can close it and retry another time if things aren't going too
smoothly. take breaks when feeling burnt out, dont play out of force and maybe you'll find the love you once had for this game once again! ( haha )
