I’m now about 230 hours into Hunt. I'm addicted!
Most of that time has been spent playing with random squadmates. In Hunt nobody blames you if you still need to learn and die because I die a lot. Sometimes very quickly, sometimes after long, extremely tense encounters. Every mistake matters, and the game rarely forgives you. Despite that, or maybe because of it, every match feels intense and meaningful.

I honestly don’t understand the negative reviews complaining about the MMR system. From my experience, matchmaking has been accurate, and fights usually feel balanced rather than one-sided.

I also don’t understand reviews claiming it takes 20 minutes to find a match. In my experience, matchmaking has been very fast. I’ve never waited more than 1-2 minutes to get into a game.

You’re not forced to play aggressively or rely heavily on voice chat. You can play solo, move slowly, use stealth, ambush enemies, or just play quietly with randoms. I often communicate with teammates, but I also like that you can easily stay silent and still win matches. Communication is helpful, but not mandatory.

The most rewarding experience for me is playing solo Bounty Hunt with a hunting bow and a silenced secondary weapon. You can sometimes take out entire teams of three without them knowing where you are. Sneaking up on them and attacking silently feels incredibly satisfying.

Most of my encounters with random teammates have been positive. I’ve met friendly German and Spanish players, and only once ran into a toxic teammate who flamed me after dying first and expecting a reckless revive. Overall, the community experience has been much better than I expected.

There’s always something to learn: positioning, sound awareness, map knowledge, weapons, and decision-making.

I've already seen people arguing why they're adding cosmetics as DLC content over "fixing their game". You gotta understand that there are different departments/jobs in game studios that handle certain parts of the game. Character artist's, modeler's, and texture artist's jobs are to create this sort of content because that's what they're paid to do and it's in their expertise. Those people aren't going to be told to start fixing bugs (unless it's a problem related to their department/job, ex. broken textures).
Fixing the servers/server stability is not their job. The people with that job are currently at work, they don't stop because cosmetics are being made. Every single department is always at work in a game studio. Just because they release some cosmetic DLC doesn't mean they've halted their progress on fixing the game.
You should be happy that the DLC is all cosmetic.
