  • The Springfield Krag is the most recent long ammo rifle to grace Hunt: Showdown. On paper, its kinda bad, but in practice it is a bit more interesting. Should you use it? Is Grover Cleveland relevant to this decision?

      Honestly I still like the one shot potential of my hand crossbow so I run it with krag and ammo box so I don’t break the bank, usually there’s a lot of ammo around and I kill my target with less ammo, the stronger the weapon. I hate the only weapon reliably accurate we’re close-mid two tappers, like precisions. I like high velocity without damage drop off. Long ammo had too few bullets or were too expensive and sweaty

So if he was offered but has to follow certain stipulations that could harm the integrity of his person or channel, he might of not accepted. Also Crytek may already have way too many partners as is and not willing to sponsor any new entries. Thinking about this, is it surprising? Not at all.

      True, and you can have a secondary that can actually help you at close range. Unless your cool as a cucumber, a sparks pistol, or Uppercut aren't great at close ranges.
      Ironside is a really good "Hunter first hunt) gun. Its cheap, good, and performs the same regardless of perks. I think the krag was supposed to fill this gap as well, but the double long ammo requirement is not that versatile of a loadout, nor is it really all that cheap. That being said, the krag is nice to shoot with the few times I picked one up, unless until you run out of ammo anyway.

    My issue with the Krag is that at that price, I could just spend 20$ more, get a lebel and in the process :
    Have more ammo
    Have more ammo in the magazine (10 Vs 5+1)
    more damage 132 Vs 124 (meaning I can kill a hunter missing a chunk)
    More range (but not enough to see a difference)
    More handling (2%)
    More muzzle velocity (not enough to make a difference.)
    I only lose around 10rpm, it might matter in a fight, but not that much. And a faster reload (6 seconds faster, though the 4 bullet extra sort of make it up for it?)
    The only advantage really is that the KRag doesn't need bullet grubber, but I rarely grab BG when using a lebel: I'll just tap the reload to slip a bullet after firing one, I rarely need to reload before my magazine's empty?
    I feel like this gun would fit better at 250$ +/-. There's a lot of space in between the berthier and the martin-henry, while the top of the long ammo pool is very tight.
    Hell, I usually go lebel, rather than berthier because the berthier already doesn't justify its price range

  • @vysearcadia522
    @vysearcadia522 Год назад +1

    Krag special ammo is low but to say that you HAVE to bring FMJ on your secondary is kinda like saying you have to bring uppercut or a sparks pistol.
    In this way, you could use your Krag to act more like a secondary or spare. Using your alternative weapon to more liberally while conserving your long ammo. It takes a different kind of playstyle to effectively use it in this way and you can bring alternative “secondaries” to pair instead of pooling ammo with sparks pistol and uppercuts.

    Ammo pool size is such a terrible way to balance things. The Krag needing the sparks pistol to back up its poor pool makes its upside of being the fastest firing long rifle kind of sad. It already has the downside of being the weakest long ammo rifle in the game. Didn't need the ammo pool reduction. Still. Highlights the problem that if you want to use ammo as a balance factor, it absolutely needs to not be able to pull a secondary or two to completely cover that downside. Looking at you, Avtomat with dual Sparks pistols. Biggest problem of that beautiful little gun is that its so good for other long ammo guns. It doesn't shine much on its own because of that huge pool of relatively cheap long ammo. Which is a shame because that thing HURTS to get hit by. I've legit never died to it. I'll dish out the pain with it though. Beautiful little baby.

    • @Bunnibunnibunni
      @Bunnibunnibunni 2 года назад

      I dont think just blanket removing secondaries ammo pool stacking with primaries would be a good idea. Most of the time I want to use my ammo at range so the majority of my pool is used for rifle but if I was in a close combat fight maybe the percentage would be more leaned in on the pistol, but the idea of me not being able to choose what to do between those ammo pools sounds like shit. I don't wanna be in a situation where I'm at like 70 meters fight and just have to start using my pistol because I arbitrarily am locked out of using it on my rifle despite using the same ammo type. I don't think we should remove that choice from people, if someone wants to give up potentially having a fast firing follow up weapon to use sparks pistol just for ammo thats their choice, it isn't op cus they now have a secondary that they probably didn't want in particular and lose utility/firepower, its a tradeoff and fair. If pools weren't shared and I didn't have that choice to trade utility/firepower for extra ammo for both, it would disproportionally affect compact and medium rifles since you need special ammo to be competitive at all with long ammo, which doesn't need special and can always use abundant ammo chests around the map. I'd feel pressure to play long rifle/fast pistol or shotgun/uppercut almost exclusively. Nitro, dulch, and slugs/other ammos that are supposed to be restictive already do so perfectly fine where stacking is either not possible, or very limiting (stacking shotguns for slugs means exclusively close range, and more than one dolch sucks so much). Avto is imo a special case, and designs special attention (and special ammo), blanket removing synergistic weapon/ammo choices just to fix avto is a pretty bad idea.

    I haven't found the option of a sparks pistol or uppercut to make the ammo downsides of the krag a non-issue. By taking one with the krag you negate the lack of ammo but you also lose the wider range of options other secondaries give you. You forgo a lot of closer range options that would help a lot in a closer range scenario.

    Does the 124 have a big impact on its performance? Absolutely, and hilariously so. I've been saying forever that repeating long ammo guns should do less damage, ideally less than 125, but with only the Krag having that feature means it will always lose the war of attrition against any other long ammo gun.
    I like the gun, but it requiring an ammo sidearm to both fix its ammo problems and cover for its damage on downed enemies makes it far too niche beyond the fire rate. Why bother with a Krag when you can just grab a Mosin and have far less headache, more flexibility in sidearms, and more consistency?

    I never use long ammo bolt action guns because I find them boring, both to fight with and against. But I like the Craig (as a Minnesotan, I can confirm you were right about the pronunciation). With the reduced ammo and lower damage, it feels sharper and more skilled than the other rifles. Its downsides force you to be more accurate and think about each shot, while its advantages reward going for long shots or penetrating cover if you have the skill to land those shots consistently. Plus the lack of scoped variants (so far) means that you typically have a fighting chance if you wander into the sights of a Craig player.

    Honestly this is the only way they could've reasonably made a new long-bolt-action gun and made it actually distinct. I'm happy they didn't do otherwise. I'm also surprised, given how many people both think it's useless because of the damage, or how many think it's overpowered for the firerate. It's not like the centennial where the gun was just kinda crap on arrival and a small number of people defended it, this one's really split down the middle. I think that's a good sign really.

      they need to do something with the dolch! the new army with its bleed variant out classes the ROF, bornheim with its fast reload, and the officer with its stability pretty much outclasses the dolch in most situations. for the price of 750 i believe it should have special ammo variants or make it medium ammo. it’s in a weird place rn and i really love the aesthetic of the dolch but it’s an unreliable weapon compared to the other semi auto options we got :/

    The krag makes me wonder why other long guns should get to be 125+ dmg, i dont really understand it other than sparks and martini which are obv in a diff class. Every long rifle is good at everything and only balanced by being expensive, whereas krag has tradeoffs.
    I feel like playing something even on the higher tier for non-long rifles like vetterli is just on a completely lower level than long guns in every way, where you have to deal with bad bullet velocity, needing special to penetrate so having ammo pickup limited, while performing worse-same to same at lower ranges and awfully compared to long at the 40+ range with the two tap upper chest range not even being half that of long guns, all while getting put in the same damage group. Same with the pistols, uppercut being in 125+ damage group is just kinda ???, we already have a long pistol that can one tap downed hunters, the fact that one with 5 more rounds in the cylinder exists and can fan all of them is just out of place. Price "balance" is pulling wayyy too much of the legwork for the balance in this game for these guns that otherwise just dont really have tradeoffs. Seeing Krag and Ironside at least have downsides is interesting and new. Maybe they could at least have lower damage than medium at medium ammos ideal range, if they're going to have superiority in basically every other way, so that they aren't just objectively better than everything except cost?

    Where Tagalos steal and lie, where Americanos die,
    There you hear the soldiers sing this evening lay :
    Damn, damn, damn the Filipinos, cross-eyed kakiack ladrones,
    Underneath our starry flag, civilize 'em with a Krag,
    And return us to our own beloved homes."

    krag feels like what long ammo magazine guns should be, deadly fast bullet, good pen, but with reasonable damage rather than the insanity of the mosin and lebel. It makes sense for an ammo type to not excel in everything, imo only medium ammo and single shot rifles should get to do >125 damage, mosin and lebel are just plain unfair in how good every single stat is, krag feels way more fair to fight against and I don't feel like I'm getting cheap kills, and in theory (if you are an aim god) it's actually probably better than the mosin and lebel if you can consistently land headshots. All around I love this gun.

    I do feel you are underselling the reload of the Krag a bit. Specifically, it has the best reload speed of long ammo weapons for mid-combat reloads of 3 shots (minus the berthier’s empty mag). From empty it’s definitely slower if you’re trying to top 6 rounds, but just adding in 3-5 gives it a very competitive reload that’s almost comparable to that of stripper magazines.

    Krag is the final evolution of the Winchester school of headplinking and fast target acquisition. I have a feeling this thing will probably get a sniper variant eventually, it's just made for headhunters. Absolutely love it, favorite long ammo rifle for me.

    I have been thinking for a while now that long ammo damage should be brought down to medium ammo levels. Then also make small and medium ammo effective range is shorter or make long ammo. Effective range is longer. So that the advantage you get with long ammo is penetration and range instead of overall damage.

      @@CyberneticArgumentCreator i agree but for people who are 4 star and up. There is absolutely no disadvantage to bringing long ammo. Money is not a problem for people who are above average which by default is half the players.
      And if you wanted to try and stay true to real world ballistics, you shouldn’t be able to use the same ammunition in a Vertrelli that you use in a Pax and you shouldn’t be able to use the same ammunition in a mosin that you use in a Sparks pistol. If they change the types of ammo instead of just three basic groups, I would also be OK with that.
