Learn how to play Hunt: Showdown's Quickplay mode. This guide covers the objective, mechanics, and essential tips for a faster, more intense experience in the Bayou.
Quickplay offers a faster, more streamlined experience in Hunt: Showdown, focusing on a race against other players to secure a bounty. This mode is ideal for players looking for a quicker match or wanting to level up their hunters efficiently.
Objective:
- Locate and collect four Rifts scattered across the map.
- The first player to collect four Rifts becomes the Wellspring.
- As the Wellspring, absorb its energy while fending off other hunters.
- The last hunter standing as the Wellspring wins.
Key Differences from Bounty Hunt:
- No boss monster to banish.
- Focus is on collecting Rifts and surviving as the Wellspring.
- Hunters start with random loadouts.
- Permadeath is in effect, and hunters cannot be revived by teammates.
Tips for Quickplay
- Listen Carefully: Sound is crucial. Pay attention to footsteps, gunshots, and environmental noises to track other players.
- Prioritize Rifts: Your primary goal is to find and secure Rifts. Don't get bogged down in unnecessary fights early on.
- Master Movement: Efficient movement is key. Utilize sprinting, vaulting, and ladder climbing effectively.
- Know Your Loadout: Since loadouts are random, familiarize yourself with various weapons and tools quickly.
- Play the Wellspring: If you become the Wellspring, use the environment to your advantage. Find defensible positions and be aware of your surroundings.
- Be Aggressive (When Appropriate): While caution is advised, don't be afraid to engage when you have the advantage, especially when others are distracted.
