The hunters are able to get as far as the fence on the right.Īlso Seen here from the prop perspective The prop is the little black can on the left at the end of the road where the map ends. Pay attention to your teammates as most people will comment on your position if your in an illegal spot. A good rule of thumb is to check the rules for the server as some have listed areas that are banned to prevent glitching. When playing as a prop a general rule of thumb is don’t go into areas that require you to go through small gaps like fences where a hunter is not able to get to. On most servers these are known as Glitched spots or Map exploits. Glitch Spots, Map Exploits and Banned AreasĪs props come in a variety of different sizes they are able to get into areas that the hunters may not be able to get into or see. To taunt in the game press the ‘F3’ key on a Mac you may need to change your settings to use the f1, f2 keys as standard keys otherwise holding the ‘Option’ or ‘Alt’ button while pressing a function key may work for you. Whenever you taunt your prop will play a random taunt from the server that all players can hear.īeware though as there are infinite taunts that will not stop playing until the round is over. Taunting is used to mock the hunters but also used to help them find you or lead them elsewhere.

Thirdly if a prop gets caught against the wall or other object in the game and you don’t move it back out you will most likely drop it as you try to move. Secondly walking while carrying a prop is very difficult as the prop bounces off you slowing you down, the best option is walking backwards or sideways to avoid this. There are a few things to note with this one being that you must be directly over a prop to pick it up as there must be a very short distance between you and the prop to pick it up. To pick up a prop without transforming into it press and hold the crouch key (usually ‘Control’ or ‘Ctrl’) then press the ‘E’ key to pick the prop up. Moving props can be used to your advantage to make an area harder to search or to hide under something else. The bigger you are the easier to find you become but you also have more health. The key thing to note is in prophunt the amount of health you have as a prop is proportional to the size of the prop you are. Be careful not to get stuck when changing as you may end up through a wall or another prop. Use the ‘E’ key when you are close to a prop and the cursor is over it / in its area to transform into the prop. You win the round if one Prop is still alive when the time runs out or the hunters all kill themselves.Īs the goal for the prop team is to hide as a object on the map becoming a prop is important. Your goal is to change into an object or Prop on the map and then hide from the other team.

Playing as a Prop can be fairly challenging. All players will generally move the same speed.

There is no run option by default in prop hunt.
