    Hunt mob rendering. What is your experience?

    This has become a popular subject as of late. A lot of people have said that the hunt mob just doesn't appear on screen for them. I have not had this problem myself (I play on PS4.) What platform do you play on? If PC, what is your hardware? Maybe it's not even a personal hardware issue. Maybe it's a server issue.

    I want to make clear that this is purely out of morbid curiosity. Clearly lots of players are having this problem and it would be nice to see a pattern.

    PC player. Frequently lose sight of hunt mobs with more than 100 players around it. And before anyone mentions it, no the Character and Object quantity option does not help whatsoever.

    It's not a hardware issue. A lot of players that can max the game easily are experiencing this problem.

    I was doing hunts mid-day EST last Friday (10 a.m. to about 12 a.m), and A ranks were derendering there were so many people. Eventually, the mob would get pulled by people creeping up and face pulling it as they try to keep it rendered on their screen.

    my computer's specs are:
    Windows 7 Pro 64-bit
    i7-2600K quad core @ 3.4GHz
    32 GB RAM
    nVidia GeForce GTX 570

    Questing is like participating in an Old Spice Commercial - Talk to me, talk to him, talk to me, talk to him, Now Talk To Me...Sadly, you are not done, back to him, look there, its that mob I never liked, back to me, back to him...I'm in the Waking Sands.

    On PS4 S rank hunts can disappear if there's too many people. You have to get really close to rectify this.

    This is a problem everyone is having. I thought they said they fixed this crap? Even S ranks derender constantly, leading to my group missing credit on a few of them. BTW my computer handles this game on max settings quite easily.

    I don't see them and I'm on max settings on PC as well.
    ANd this only applies to S rank, as I'm usually able to see A and B's.
    It's so terrible, I get there, I can't even target it, and then it kills me even though I saw nothing.
    Stupid broken hunt system needs a massive overhaul (ಠ_ಠ)

    I play on a PotatoStation 3, and during the evening, it can get pretty miserable. During the night/early morning though it's usually fine. I was getting really frustrated before I decided to switch to these times, though, and it might only be as okay as it is because my server isn't terribly huge.


    There is always some flickering with S ranks but fortunately they have enough HP that I always get to see them enough to get my credit.

    I will say that if I wasn't in a position where these hours were doable, there's a good chance hunts would just be unplayable, but that's what I get for playing on a rock i guess.

    I never ever get below 60 fps in the game even in super crowded areas. Yet S and sometimes A rank mobs will start flickering and disappear for no reason.

    Fix your s***
