A new map isn't gonna name everybody stop playing the old ones, look at Counter Strike's de_dust from 1999, people still play that map religiously even if there are new ones. The old maps were balanced and refined, and have been replaced with a completely imbalanced one. They've should've been available along side the new one.
I'm running a 1080 Ti, can still do most modern games on high - ultra on 90 FPS at 1440p. Played Hunt maxed out for years no issues, now I got everything on low except textures and barely scratch 70 between compounds. Searching the Steam forums and reddit shows similar complains from other people with even better hardware than mine.
Before I was finding players 2 seconds after I pressed search on Europe servers, now, even though player numbers skyrocketed after the patch, I can go make my self a cup of tea, come back and it's still hasn't found anything. Maybe it has something to do with my MMR rank.
Speaking of, you're right, I noticed the rank changes before the patch. I was always a 4 Star player, sometimes dipped in 5 Star after a good match, sometimes dipped into the 3 Star. Now I'm effortlessly sitting at 6 Stars. How do I know I improved skill wise if I'm already sitting at the max possible rank? Why are mediocre players like me suddenly bundled with sweatlords, who presumably are also 6 stars?
The skins now have rareities that determine their price, this came with the new update.
I'm not talking about minor bugs. The reason why I uninstalled is because if the boss gets killed in my compound by me or anybody else and I open the map, my game freezes and crashes on a regular basis. I validated the game files, I've updated my drivers, etc. It is straight up unplayable. I open the map on accident and I'm out. Again I'm not the only one with this problem. This is not some minor bug, this is absolutely unacceptable for a PvP game with permadeath. But that's the reality of this new shitty Hunt.
That's why DayZ has open experimental servers running months in advance, and their push to official is largely bug free. But, oh my, Crytek wants a big reveal for big update, who cares about playability, buy our Battlelass.
The best to come of this update was Port Sulfurs new single.
