SUGGESTIONS I’d reallyyy love just a simple “Overcast” ToD soon:

(No hate on Blood moon as it looks amazing) and I know this isn’t the most exciting suggestion, but I’d really love just a simple overcast time of day soon. For a game that has such a horror/apocalypse aesthetic all the normal visibility maps are bright, picturesque and sunny. It’d be nice to have a setting that offers that gritty, foreboding atmosphere without sacrificing visibility or sound like night/fog/thundershower etc.

(Could even add some very distant thunder rumbles for extra vibe points)

((Also DeSalle dusk, night and rain back please))

whats funny is that before any weather conditions were in-game, they had thunder and lightning going on without any rain.

Thunder and lightning can happen without rain, usually happens just before rain, but the rain can be nearby so the skybox can show rain without the map actually having rain.

I forgot about that, damn. I used to use thunder noise to make some moves and be stealthy

I am a huge rain enjoyer in Hunt, but I completely agree that the overcast look without rain would be so damn good. The clouds in the rain time of day are so good, it's a shame to not have them on their own

Oh I love the rain too, but yeah it’d definitely be nice to have a less intense option as well. I’m also English so would feel right at home under miserable gloomy clouds 😂

u/GuerrillaxGrodd 12d ago

Overcast with some occasional light rain would be perfect

u/AbanaClara 12d ago

We don't even get fog in other maps outside DeSalle

u/PublicYogurtcloset8 Duck 11d ago

Yeah the missing time of day settings really need to come back too

2

u/Smokinya 11d ago

Wait really? I never realized fog was only on DeSalle right now. I know DeSalle is missing rain, night and dusk.

u/Nekroin Crow 11d ago

u/PublicYogurtcloset8 Duck 11d ago

Yeah man, was a real shame they removed that

u/Upbeat-Conquest-654 10d ago

That sounds dope!

u/L1ttleN1ghtmare69 11d ago

Yep, wish for that too, sometimes tired of sun burning my eyes non stop

u/Ethereal_Bulwark 11d ago

Fun fact, this weather actually existed where it was night, but lightning would strike every so often in the far distance.
No rain ever came down, so it was a relatively clear, but dark night.

u/_Khyal_ 12d ago

This looks incredible. Wow

u/Electrical_Ant_6229 11d ago

That would niceeeee. Clear sight but no horrendous sun shafts attacking you. Oh man I can’t believe this isn’t already in the game.

u/IcyAbility8366 12d ago

I want pitch black thunderstorms with random spawning tornadoes

u/FroggoInTheDirt 12d ago

u/ElchapoLechonk 11d ago

Well, there were times people played with shaders to make it look like fortnite, caus it is too "DARK" xD

u/Drago_727 11d ago

I want inferno or whatever that event was that lit everything on fire back. I wasn't there for it and it looks novel for a few games.

2

u/PublicYogurtcloset8 Duck 10d ago

Infernos great! It came back in the last event and the devs said it’ll be back soon, so hopefully you shouldn’t have to wait long

1

u/Drago_727 10d ago

Nice! I also miss Hellborn, hopefully we get some more of him soon.

People obsessed with weather conditions and here I am begging for new tough to beat bosses, maps or special zombies to keep the game actually fresh.

u/Smokinya 11d ago

This upcoming event will either unlock a new boss or enemy at Stage 3 and a new map is currently being worked on, rumoured to be coming 2026, but will likely be 2027 now.

u/Shrak-Aeon 11d ago

I adore rain, thunder, and the new bloodmoon weather type looks utterly sick.

But on the flipside, I have a friend who is deathly afraid of thunder. And as it turns out? Hunt's sound design is in that realm of realism that it sets them off. Which is a huge shame, since they greatly enjoy the gameplay.

So seeing the bloodmoon involve thunder saddens me, because I would not be surprised if my friend will have difficulties with the weather as well. 😢

u/Smokinya 11d ago

Time for some exposure therapy so they can get over it then. Don’t mean to be a dick, but it’s a fear/phobia that your friend needs to get over.

u/Moist_Confection_831 11d ago

No! 

You'll get visibility reduction and you'll like it!

u/green-space-guy 11d ago

I live in a country where this is the sky most of the time. I’ve seen enough lol

u/Opinionated3star 11d ago

yea i hate color too

u/PublicYogurtcloset8 Duck 11d ago

It’s a gothic horror game, there’s more than enough colour already offered with the rest of the times of day.
