....they fill the same niche of hunting, comparing them is normal
Yeah guys i'm cooked. Had a dream last night that I was on Yukon Valley hunting bears
grizzlysss
Them damn Grizzlies
I got into hunting games around 10 days back. Even I was confused b/w these two
I had a dream about whitetail on layton 😭
Love that 🤣
It was a weird dream, there was a train going through the area and the deer were running away from the tracks
You took the game to the next level
elk
Ha lmao! Yeah I was duck hunting which I never do and I saw this skin I ain't seen before! Thought it looked cool!
They are technically more common but they are very cool
Definitely collect them if you like the way they look
Is there variation between piebald patterns?
I don’t know about ducks but there is one for fellow deer
And I’m pretty sure there’s one for roe
guys anyone wanna play cotw with me???im in laptop
did anyone else feel like frost .257 damage feels lower after the update?
idk, might just be me but it feels like it’s hitting weaker than before. anyone else noticed this or am i tripping?
laptop?
guys can .223 docent drop a 8 mythical??
yeah
is the skin harder to penetrate based on difficulty?
idk
surely not, right?
I don't recall the difficulties of my harvests but a bullet in the size number of the target is all I really pay attention to
I am beyond confused when it comes to the animal stats
btw should i pick layton or hirschfelden??
Any 1 is fine
Morning
Both are starter maps
Hirschfelden for me, the bisons are plenty fun to chase down
i rlly wanted to have sundarpatan but im poor to have it lol
It's on sale rn
I can host it for you, down?
yeah im down
give me 5 minutes
can I get your username thing?
Guys what should I buy? Emerald coast, askiy ridge or medved
dm me
emerald i think
gorillajax#9641
out of these im a medved fan but i cant knock askiy at all so askiy imo
Askiy has the most wildlife that's what made me buy it
Guys help I'm getting bored after 6 hours in the game😆💔
Lol
Problem is idk what to do yk? Like i ran across silver ridge for a while, got every single animal except the goat, switched to layton, got spawned in the edge of the map, shot a level 2 moose, tried tracking it but i hit a tree not a moose, and logged out
anyone down to go on a map with a lot of bucks?
Is anyone on this server is Spanish?
No, not just Spanish; I can speak more languages
U are good at It?
Jajajjajajaj, It happens to me with English
When I speak English, I get a terrible Spanish accent
This deer got CWD.
I assure you that mine is worse; mine comes out with a Spanish accent from Spain
I actually get very good grades in English
The mexican accent is funny, remind me rdr1 mexican missions jjajajj
Layton?
icelandic accent is terrible
I never heard of it jajajjasas
This goose survived getting Swiss cheesed, only to return later and get obliterated by the sound of a single pellet wizzing by.
you prolly never will😉
i like cheese
this me if cat
yum
Hey hunters. I'm new to the game, 3hrs in and LOVING IT! And I've only had one kill.
What do you guys recommend as the best equipment to get going hunting dear and moose? I'm on the starter reserve, I got the top bundle plus tents.
Sweet
yeah me and @high bronze was on that map
Game is trolling me, doing the "hunt a fox with a bow in spreeberg" and I got it, but it crawled, with its last strengt just out of the area...
its cold asf in the stand rn
What are the chances the devs backfill Emerald coast with feral camels 😭
Anyone wanna play?
What platform you on?
PlayStation
Add me I’ll get on in like 30 minutes
well thats a surprise first 1 of these i ever kill
ok so both of them i shot was diamond???
Welcome to the game!
For deer specifically, there are a lot of great options that will depend on your hunting preferences.
As far as rifles go, the
.7mm is a great deer rifle and shoots extremely flat, even out to 400m you barely need to adjust (assuming you have unlocked the zeroing perk and can zero to 300m, that is), and it can ethically harvest classes 4 through 9, covering all but the smallest deer species.
For equipment, range finder binoculars are great, as are the various callers for deer, they're all effective, especially if you pair them with hunting structure to reduce your hunting pressure on kills significantly, allowing 15 kills in the same area.
Finally, the Bloodhound is my favorite for large game, as it can effortlessly track any animal you shoot and ensure those botched shots don't end up a waste. You can track blood and trials yourself, but the dog does it better, and at higher levels will often skip the blood trail entirely and beeline directly for the target.
Sadly I did this too and got excited, but they're glitched and always come up as diamond.
They're bugged
Has anyone done g1 moose grind on layton?
hi
Guys is it normal if my game progression is slow?
I don't know
Anyone down to play I’m on PlayStation
this should give a good spread right
After the 270 I should get the 7mm? Base game only fr
Yeah it's good
Anyone down to play rn?
@cobalt spear Thought you might like to see this, learning that the 47-50 rifle wasn't completely worthless, I decided to test the handgun, which is much lighter and can take a scope. Now for my Layton loadout I have a 1lb long range moose killer 😆
Guys is it normal if my game progression is slow?
Anybody wanna play any map I’m down
dont shoot females
Yep, it's a hunting game, and unless you put specific focus into making money and speedrunning missions, your progress will be slow. But that's the great thing about this game, there are no time limits!
can somebody help me get my original animal population file back my friend told me to put it like that and now i cant play leyton lakes and i have no other maps
What?
i just got the game 4 days ago and my reallly good friend told me to put a different animal popluation file and i did and now all that spawns is good moose and deer and i dont like it, it is no fun
Ahhhh you modded, go to #🦌︴help-and-tips ... Good luck.
#1062059141436297246 might even be necessary, unsure how modded file repair is handled in this discord.
Also, tell your really good friend he's a noob.
shoot females for money and weapon score, as well as allowing rare fur types to spawn
Also for target practice, they're always so plentiful 😆
wait so can it get fixed
i got really far and put some good hours in i even got myself a dlc
gus I think arrows are a little sharp
I'm certain it can, but you will need to find someone with knowledge on tampering with game files.
Worst case you may have to uninstall and re-download.
which maps should i play next after the base game ones
ive tried\
yeah i figured that out the hard way lol
it doesnt work to uninstall
Yeah they're definitely a bit overtuned.
anyways im not gonna be at my pc until after christmas so merry christmas to all of you
It does, but you're not Uninstalling your save files as well. Go to #1062059141436297246 or #🦌︴help-and-tips
@azure crag
Yo
Check DMs again
yeah they’re currently bugged
Magpies and Stubble are both currently free diamonds. 😆
why arent the animlas getting scared for me my brother played on my acc and now my animals wont be scared they js calm even if i shoot right besides them
Guys I’m 12,000$ away from getting the 7mm I started the game yesterday and need someone to help me farm money. If u can help me pls dm me.
Are you on PC?
yes
Possible your brother modded your game
bro what
Guys I’m 12,000$ away from getting the 7mm I started the game yesterday and need someone to help me farm money. If u can help me pls dm me.
so what i gotta do to reverse it
if u got silver ridge peaks map
Shake him til he tells you what he did
I don’t I just started
Like I said Zim just hit the river in Layton and wipe those whitetail. You still got that massive Gold to harvest too, remember?
The game today was ok tbh, i went to layton, kinda saw some moose and whitetail but didn't spot alot of animals overall, killed a coyote tho! Where can i find ducks?
Thanks
callers use them and just hide with a shotgun
or .22
Does that work with other animals?
Ducks will hang out in various spots along the river as well as most of the ponds dotting the map. You can call them in while sitting on a tripod or other hunting structure and wipe them out by the dozen.
im trying to figure it out imma just verify my game files
maybe that will fix it
idk
I'm just trying to figure out ways to not get bored of the game
Guys I’m 12,000$ away from getting the 7mm I started the game yesterday and need someone to help me farm money. If u can help me pls dm me. I play on playstion.
I've kept myself entertained by learning how to make ridiculously long shots with short range weapons.
I don't even care about trophies anymore, I farm harvest screens 😂
nice one
Nice elk! The .7mm shoots really flat and is a great first upgrade from the .243. I do wish it was better at penetration at long range though. It can't effectively kill crocs past 300m.
The malmer doesn't have the best penetration with ranges over 250
Is the zarza 308 better at long range,
Yep, but for large game at long range I prefer the .300!
Whoops, wrong screen lmao
I think i know why I'm getting kinda bored now
The Arzyna is my absolute favorite That thing there needs to die immediately rifle.
I have to do alot of walking to discover zones and stuff, but is it true that once i discover many drinking zones i could juat reset the time , fast travel and boom?
Guys I’m 12,000$ away from getting the 7mm I started the game yesterday and need someone to help me farm money. If u can help me pls dm me. I play on playstion.
Някой да играем
Isn't the server english only?
Absolutely, that's how most farm zones. Do be aware that you need to set up about 250m away from a zone though, fast travel has a spook radius.
Is the laperriere outrider( the gun that you get with askiy ridge) better than the 243?
Has anybody else had it where one of their trophies in their lodge has duplicated? My diamond greylag has just duped and I don’t know why
So i need to set my tent 250ms away from the lake?
Guys I’m 16,000$ away from getting the 7mm I started the game yesterday and need someone to help me farm money. If u can help me pls dm me. I play on playstion.
Nobody cares mate
What is the best gun from the hunter power pack
It's a lever action 30-30, And the 30-30 caliber is only slightly better at large-game performance than the .243. You won't notice a difference unless you regularly hunt beyond 200m.
If you're primarily hunting class 4, you won't notice a difference at all.
Cuz the malmer and olsson look the same stats wise, the olsson looks slightly better even
Howdy folks. been a while, hows things
do yall know how to fix my second monitor lagging when i go in on the hunter??
is there like a setting or something
Most would say the .7mm, due to it's good overall performance even out to render range, against all but class 9.
30-06 good for deer?
I got stuttering when my laptop wasn't connected to the power supply. seems odd but it made a big difference
thats normal
And that third weapon in the back? The sniper rifle
tbh I wasn't aware until i resolved it.
The .338?
Do you people know if there ever gonna add xbox and PlayStation cross play?
Highly unlikely, the different versions are all developed too differently to incorporate crossplay IIRC.
Oh ok
Yeah
Guys which one Spotting knowledge, dazed and confused, or the more the merrier.
Guys I’m 16,000$ away from getting the 7mm I started the game yesterday and need someone to help me farm money. If u can help me pls dm me. I play on playstion.
The .338 is a good choice for long range, large game, but I wouldn't really compare it to the .7mm, since the .7mm has a much wider range of species it can ethically target, making it the better all-rounder, but the .338 will put down class 8 and 9 game faster than the .7mm, and more reliably at long range.
Guys which one Spotting knowledge, dazed and confused, or the more the merrier.
Try #🦌︴find-a-game
I went for spotting knowledge and never went back. The other two are too niche.
Hi 👋
Ello
What’s yalls best trophy
I am but no one is active there
Haven't played too much recently
but in a bit I think a diamond Bantang?
My favorite is this fox, though I do have a slew of diamonds hanging out in my lodges, I have yet to find a diamond fox.
Whoa
Beautiful
Where did u shoot it?
like Map
Emerald Coast, while farming crocs. I saw it spook after I downed a croc and immediately switched to small game hunting lmao.
My entire beach is dead zones and they still come...
Which equals MONEYYYYYYYY
Yeah Geese are the same way, you can pile up dozens and they just land on the bodies.
Yall remember the wild goose chase dlc?
Guys I’m 16,000$ away from getting the 7mm I started the game yesterday and need someone to help me farm money. If u can help me pls dm me. I play on playstion.
Yea I hunt canadian geese cus at one of the outposts they come like every 20 seconds
Bruh if you would have started hunting whitetail when you started asking for help you'd have made the 16k by now 😆
tru
Bro I hunting rn
I can ig
There's a new DLC map that let's you call in 2 species at once 😂
Im on ps5
I have it...
Ok
MONEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
I’m 14k away now
Noice
Congratulations
Thanks 😂
Whats ur multiplayer code?
If u want to help us add me my user is Havefun_user1
What’s that?
bro they gotta add a husky to the game
If you're on a server (that's private) that u created then there's a code
do yall know if i uninstall the game can i fix my population file
Were you modding?
yeah my friend told me to so i can get good stuffff i just got the game 4 days ago
I would say uninsstall the mods and verify your game files
maybe it will work? Idk I have never modded stuff
Huskies* give us a dog alternative to the ATV, make it slightly slower but much quieter. 😆
how to verify files
Are you playing on Steam?
yes
oh sorry
Reinstall I guess and see if it works normal
ok
Good luck
If that doesn't do it you'll have to go into your computer files and manually delete all of the files "Uninstall" doesn't, and thoroughly spank the friend that convinced you to mod.
If you do not uninstall the mods, then (to my knowledge) they will still infringe the game files
ok
i justr did it
alright i juts got into game and i see only 1 great one moose
how do i ruin it
i dont want them to keep spawning
it used to be like a big horde of them
@brave star
its him
Please in the future use the #📜︴report function and choose 'talk to a mod' instead of pinging the whole team in a public chat
Sorry
how are u guys?
Yo will animals react to my tent if its close to their feed zone?
yes
No worries, easier to handle it all behind the scenes yk?
set the tent 250m away
Understood
from feed zone
why dosent this gaem have borderless'
Because it's an older game.
half life 1 has borderless
you can force borderless with the Steam advanced launch options, but the game gets a bit unstable
this game has bvorderless
I imagine Valve has a far bigger development team than EW does.
Jesus
Hey did anyone else know you can slide? 🤣 I just accidentally found out wth was that this isn’t cod why my guy slide canceling
to herd manage wolf in Yukon do I need to find every single drink zone,rn I’m working on 3 and shoot whatever I see in the wild
You don't need to
though it does mean if you start having males vanishing from all of your zones, you'll have to hunt around for where they went
What’s gold for Eurasian wigeon?
speaking from experience with both of my WT grinds - bucks started vanishing, and I found them all congregated at one spot
how does the flashlight make it HARDER to see at night
it's primarily meant to be used to see tracks
And if I wanna start a g1 wolf grind can I shoot other species or only wolf
Guys I’m 16,000$ away from getting the 7mm I started the game yesterday and need someone to help me farm money. If u can help me pls dm me. I play on playstion.
its uncommon iirc
Idk I said what cotw wiki write
You guys should add cross play!!
They're not gonna
Not possible
How is it not possible?
Game engine is too old
The amount of work it would need would mean at least a year's worth of not a single other update
also, there is entirely too big of a hacker/modder problem on PC
Can anyone help me out i am having issue getting into the game
with no way to implement an anticheat at this point in the game's life
If I unlock a map I don't own in multiplayer, will I have it unlocked when I buy it?
You should
dose any one might know why my game is crashing as soon as i load in
have you played public multi recently?
👍
No
I cant even load into the game
Verify integrity of the files through the Steam menu
okay
another important one - are you trying to run the game with mods installed?
If you have mods, that's most likely why you're crashing.
This game does not support mods
oh okay
so uninstall them all, then verify integrity of the game files
if not do a clean reinstall
so when you say clean install do you mean like just redownloading the game?
uninstall game, manually remove ALL remaining files from your PC, then reinstall
okay thank you
but that's only if just verifying doesn't fix it
because clean reinstall is the nuclear option
say goodbye to all your trophies then
Lucky haha
ik
lucky for you then. Also as a note - modders are not looked kindly upon in this community.
if not outright detested, due to a vast majority of mods being cheats.
yea i understand thank you for still helping me
Guys I’m 16,000$ away from getting the 7mm I started the game yesterday and need someone to help me farm money. If u can help me pls dm me. I play on playstion.
where would all of my files be for the hunter call of the wild
Just go kill stuff
In the amount of time you've spent posting that message on and off, you could've made half of what you need
NO ITS INACTIVE DAMN

That means no one's looking to play multi rn.
Oh well
I started my boar g1 grind with just over 400. You can do it haha
Hi folks, pretty new to the game and just got my first great one today!

Spam my dude. Please dont
I don’t spam lol ur mad
Lyra just told you that #🦌︴find-a-game is the place for that. Just drop it there and wait. If someone wants to do it they'll let you know
how can i fix my steam cloud error i am having and do i need to have steam cloud
There is no one talking in there dumbass
Again... like Lyra said
that means no one is looking right now
You won't have different luck here
Oh well that’s why I’m in here
Guys I’m 16,000$ away from getting the 7mm I started the game yesterday and need someone to help me farm money. If u can help me pls dm me. I play on playstion.
that was a good shot
Just do mission's
how?
go on to any map and do the story missions
Where do I find story missions
(singleplayer)
yea i forgot to say that
🙂
Do missions and unlock the map. This can give you money and XP. After that you can find hotspots for species and the right times to hunt them. It's so easy. Just play the game
do i need the steam cloud to save game data or no
No
okay the only reason i am asking is because it keeps poping up an error
You don't need it no, but it can be helpful if something ever happens to your PC or you play on different ones
ohhh okay
It has a built in file save
okay thanks

When did great one mule deer release?
alr i have no clue on what has happend becuase it was working fine and then it started doing this
which map is good for grinding xp
In June
Emerald coast
Got ya
Nothing more you can do than wait for support
okay
any specific animal?
crocs
Do it on the eastern beach, not in the grooves
Just run up and down the beach
Anything with good penetration and recoil class 8+ will work
Does anyone use the dogs are they good? Or do they scare wildlife away?
the pointer doesn't scare wildlife idk about the other ones
No they don't
All the dogs are good for their purpose imo
tracker is a godsend for finding where that animal went and died
Ah ok thank you I was wanting to get the bloodhound for tracking because sometimes I miss blood spots
Yh it's important
How comes?
I got the Labrador but haven’t put it to use yet
I've just started putting the Pointer to use in scotland
Finding animals is easy af already
To try to find smaller animals
Even the class 1 ones in Scotland?
I swear I never see rabbits or foxes their so fast and hear me before I can see em
Mink, martens and timberdoodles are next to impossible to get eyes on
For bigger animals I 100% agree, but I'm struggling with class 1 minks, martens and etc
They’re just soo tiny
Pointer is the one who makes the hunt more realistic imo. Sometimes I like using him
Yeah
Just wander around and it's impossible to not find them
I think there is a glitch with the magpie goose there I keep getting diamonds with level three and fours
I am, I find their tracks and their "whereabaouts" and they're super close up to me but I still can't see them cause of their size and the foliage density
It's probably just a skill issue but still
They actually do that little circle dance
Honestly I don't struggle with finding class 1 animals, it's shooting the faster ones due to 22 having a horrific bullet drop
I think there’s a glitch with my game. I keep on getting diamond magpie geese with 3 and 4
Nice got a initial spawn diamond roe
Hellloooo
Known bug
patch won't be until after the holidays though
anyone else feel like the game needs a weapon balance tweak. some guns including old dlc guns are completely obsolete now and feels bad.
Guys is there a bug that can spawn animal? Cuz some1 spawned animal in my server
Or is it a mod
probably a mod
that's a modder
also why it's a good idea to not host public multi on PC
#📜︴report if they're in this server
I also advise getting out of multi ASAP before your files get perma-bricked
Use the ticket functionality please.
Can I hunt somebody's map on xbox
Oh mb
The humble “multiplayer” button
Never have I ever been more disappointed than by seeing a white turkey and finding out it's not an albino but a "light brown"
Guys i get my first ever gold today
Hey! I spend probably 80% of my hunting time on small game specifically. If you want to find small game like Mink, look for their tracks, follow them and find their need zones. From there you can set up an area to ambush them during active hours. Actually visibly seeing them as you walk around is purely luck, no matter what anyone tells you. Spotting them before they spot you, without the pointer, will require foreknowledge of their need zones or pure luck, either seeing one in an open field while scanning with binoculars/scope or flushing one out as you walk a trail.
The pointer is helpful for reducing the surprise encounters and turning them to your favor, and between the 3 dogs, it's the best passive skill by far imo. Nothing small enough for the retriever ever goes far enough from where it's shot to be troublesome. I like the Pointer/Bloodhound combo skill to aid in tracking at the start and finish of any hunt.
i am trying to get a pheasant g1 but my zones are not working ther is no pheasants spawning. Anyone know why?
average impulse being the goat he is
what happens if ur files get bricked?
Appreciate it, how do I set up the ambush area though?
Tent + tripod stand 150 meters away?
Or some type of covers for smaller game?
file verification usually fixes it, but in some cases you have to say goodbye to all your trophies/lodges and do a clean reinstall
Are you waiting in their need zones for the entire duration, or expecting them to be there at any time between their active hours?
The window for activity in a need zone can be a bit misleading and it's possible they're running late, or in another need zone for that day.
Exactly this! I typically set up further, about 250m away, but mostly because I like to make long shots. 150m should be okay.
wow yeha thats why i rlly only play with my irl friends
Alr, appreciate it mate
This has been getting me on the regular for years 😂💀
Every time I shoot a Merriam I think I know it isn't, but... what if?
I'm playing the new Alberta DLC. I've watched several YouTube videos for setting up a mule deer grind and I've only found two watering places for mule deer and I've been to nearly every watering source. Am I missing how they show up? Do I have to catch them at the watering source?
its also the incorrect color admixture
light browns IRL are a form of erythrism/red phase
theyre primarily red
or ruddy brown/bronze
with flight feathers and tail fan mixing color morphs
can be white, smokey grey, black, or a deeper ruddy brown
current team does peak research but whoever tf was in charge of fur types/plumage types research and production back in the earlier days couldnt be asked to even go to google
i am trying to kill them in the 14:00-18:00 zones. I teleport from tent to tent when the time is about 17:00. Bu t i am only in 3 zones. Could that have something to to with it?
which is why crowned wildebeest have always been female only despite occurring in both sexes IRL
Can someone teach me herd managing ?
Seeing them while drinking is the easiest method to find their drinking zone, but you can also just walk along the waterline and examine the tracks you see. This is more arduous but can help you find zones you haven't seen. It's also possible that one zone is actually shared by more than one herd, you can examine the zone directly and one herd will light up. If you see more tracks indicating a drinking zone that aren't lit, that's a 2nd herd using the same zone. I don't see this happen often, though, overlap seems somewhat rare for me.
It's possible they were in the zone from 1400-1600. I typically check zones 1hr after they are active, so 1500, and wait for 2hrs to be certain. They aren't particularly punctual, animals.
Anyone down to play?
thanks. there is also hunting pressure could that have something to do with it?
That's pretty much what I've been doing (with walking along the waterline and looking for tracks). I feel like I'm missing something, but maybe I just need to keep at it?
Hey guys how long does it take for hunting pressure to go away
Unless the hunting pressure is Dead Zone, no, but once it does become a dead zone those need zones will disappear!
Doesn't go away until you apply it elsewhere
?
Try looking 10-30m away from the waterline, up the bank, sometimes the need zones are surprisingly far from the actual water source. But yeah, definitely just keep at it!
meaning, it's permanent until you kill animals somewhere else.
Thank you!
Oh
it does not go away over time
Thanks
One simple method to remove hunting pressure from zones you care about, is to set up a waterfowl hunt zone somewhere on the map that is irrelevant to you. A hunting structure and a caller is all you need. Call in ducks/geese etc and shoot them as they come in. Hunting Pressure around the map will fade as you build pressure in your bird setup.
Best part? Hunting Pressure doesn't affect called-in birds, so you never have to relocate it.
What’s a waterfowl hunt zone
Obviously this is only relevant if there are waterfowl on the map though. 😆
Anywhere you set up, just about. If there are ducks on the map, within 300m or so of their need zones. If there are geese on the map, basically anywhere at all.
could it be possible i have ruined the zones by killin the male?
.270 is an okay rifle, but there's many DLC options that are much better
Is there any solution to fixing the broken multiplayer duck/geese hunting? Its unplayabe no matter what we try. Anyone know?
I’m new so I’m on Layton lake i think there is duck there but I can never get then and what do I use
No, but it is possible that your respawns are hanging if you've only killed a few animals! As my understanding goes, respawns are based on both time and animals killed, so you need to both play on a map for a minimum of 15ish minutes, and also hunt a certain number of animals, to trigger a respawn. How many that animals is, I don't know. I typically just hammer out geese or ducks to ensure my Fox and Pheasants return.
??
Solo duck/geese works fine but the moment you start a multiplayer session and invite a friend the ducks and geese are completely broken. Unplayable. Anyone know how to fix this?
A caller to call them in and a shotgun with birdshot will do the trick.
If you're still so new that you don't have the basics down, though, you should just hunt! Hunting Pressure will go away over time and you'll get the hang of managing it.
Yeah, you need to be far way from each other. Like 500m+
Thanks the only problem is the white tail deer are soooo cheap so I only have 8k and the bird caller is 6 and I need more for ammo
wtf 500? That ridiculous. This problem has been going on for years an the devs. dont even acknowledge it. Its crazy to me.
I tried helping a kid in here with a goose hunt and ended up setting up a duck hunt 800m from him and we both had normal activity. We couldn't hunt together though.
I hate to tell you but whitetail aren't actually low value, as far as average values across species go. It's just a somewhat slow game!
yea same. My brother and I were just playing and if we are at different locations it works fine but once you try to set up on the same decoys its gets unplayable
waterfowl behavior in multi has always been weird
there's been more than a few attempted fixes in the past iirc
so i can kill other animals to make the pheasants spawn?
when i played on xbox the multiplayer duck/goose hunts were wonky but still playable. Now on PC its absolutely unplayable
Oh ok thanks, one more thing where are the best spots on Layton lake for mallards
Correct, it should help.
The western half of the map has quite a few, look for their calls around the river or ponds!
thanks man ! should i also find more zones+
You can't have too few. Which map are you hunting?
Ok and then use the caller and they will land? And then use the shotgun with birdshot
s something something park i think.
Correct. Make sure to stay hidden or use a tripod though, as waterfowl have excellent eyesight
Is a tripod dlc or in game already and how much does it costs
Ah my new favorite map! Look for need zones in the woods along the western half of the map, you'll find ring necks and black grouse like crazy in there. And of course the open fields have plenty of need zones within them too.
Tripod is DLC, but any hunting structure will do. I exclusively use the tripods so I default to them when discussing hunting structure.
I Would only buy the tripod if you can move it after you put it back
Like I said though, if you're really new then this probably isn't going to be a very easy method to set up to control hunting pressure. It's expensive at the start of the game to set up a hunt zone.
All placeable structures can be removed and relocated, tents, stands, feeders etc
Thanks so much
Man the broken multiplayer duck/geese thing has me so bummed out. Thanks for letting me vent but for god sakes this game is how old and they still have unplayable multiplayer. Very disapointing
Tbf multiplayer is still very playable, it's just the waterfowl that have issues. Sadly it isn't one that can be worked around, but you can still technically hunt on the same map if you set up two different zones.
Can somebody please help me set up a moose grind?
Hey guys I also have a monitor problem when I play hunter call of the wild and have discord on the 2 nd monitor it crashes discord and if I click on discord it reconnects me
how should i sett up my tensts? should i set them up right in the middle of the eating area?
Anyone pull one yet 😍
That's cool
Anyone hear about the magpie and stubble quail bug?
guys what is a ten zone cycle for herd managment
the devs know about it
but they will be off for christmas now
Lol so how bad is it that ive been playing for 300 hours, shooting mostly reds and haven't found a single diamond?
red deer i mean
stick at it you will. shoot mainly level 5s and above
you should get one spawn pretty quickly doing that
you will have a few mythicals already
ill try that
still need to find a new zone for them though
took a two year break cause my comptuer couldn't run the game
Nooo, set them up at least 150m away from where you expect the targets to be! Fast traveling to tents spooks everything around the tent.
came back, main spot replaced with feral pigs
Jealous AF
😭 Didn't use to do that in 2022 when i started playing, real rude awakening when i booted the game up this mont
month
is it ok if i shoot females by accident sometimes?
guys what is a ten zone cycle for herd managment
From what i've played shooting females is totally fine, gives you some extra cash. I'll go for females if im a bit short and they're an easy shot.
It's tryna save you
so if i shoot to many femals they will not stop spawning?'
what was the first map that you guys got a great one?\
they will if yoo shoot to many and its can make split groups
how do u get a great one?
Nothingnwrongneithbshooting females but it's typically bad for your herd management to shoot too many of anything in general
grinding from the looks of it
its is very rare and it will spawn
yeah this a better explanation
ahh k i see
Why
how yalls day going
??
Likely because your PC can't handle both at once
Funny story.
So I was brand new to the game basically. Played for maybe three months.
My friend bought me the Tae Awaroa map.
And I downloaded it and I got on the next morning.
Started walking around and I go to a lake which is conveniently close. And it's red deer drink time.
I glass around and I see this HUGE deer. And it says 10 Fabled and I text my friend and I'm like "Hey what does 10 fabled mean?" And he's like "there is absolutely no way." He was beyond pissed 😂
So I shot it and there we go I had an initial spawn red deer GO
Ok😭😢
dang that is crazy 😂
Discord is a pretty hefty lil program but its also pretty smart and will "shut down" if things are getting dicey most of the time. There are some games where even I have to close Discord so I don't get some input lag haha
yeah i cant be in a call and play other games cause it causes quick screen pauses every now and then
Yeah but when I grind my a$$ off I don’t get shi
Oh trust me I've tried grinding for multiple. And never got one lol
Then they took away the initial spawn chance with Nepal so
Guys I really need help with my g1 wolf grind
Idk what to do
I have a few drink zones
Like 3
do they only spawn on certain maps or?
A great one can only spawn on maps that the species inhibits
ahh k
so damn jealous rn you dont even know
So like white tail GO can spawn on any map with white tail
Still trying to find a 5 - medium blacktail and a 3 - very easy jackrabbit😭
Lmfao I'm condemned tho now I swear
listen
I was setting up for my g1 grind the poor mans way and ended up getting an 81 kill g1 😅 My unprepared self was confused at the piebald boar that had shown up
Lmao
anyways gonna do some croc farming and pray for my first diamnd ever or just a rare one 🙏
I don't ever herd manage because I just don't understand it so I have to do it the original way
It’s just that you shoot anything above a certain threshold
I understand what to do after setting up and stuff but it's the setting up and getting started that confuses me
And I have a bad habit of forgetting which zones are what
yeah me too kinda
likte what happens when the zones tunr toa dead zone
Also struggle to find all of my zones
Honestly feeder and tripod combo is OP
actually question
i dont have a lot of friends who play the game
so like every 3rd animal i shoot is a gold
I wish we had more long range weapons 💔
i have a ratio of a thousand golds to 5 diamonds or something along those lines last time i checked
is this normal
long range weapons that can wear a good scope plz
Considering less than 3% of players on average get a diamond? Very normal
what does the feeder do?
Cotw or woth?
I mean it all depends on RNG.
But I thought there wasn't a "proven" way to get statistics like that
aren't they listed in one of the menus
swear i was just looking at those stats the other day
i mean harvested animals
Oh the codex?
Feeders essentially create feed zones spots for different species depending on the feeder and the feed used. You place them down within range of where the species you want wanders/travels (iirc its like 400m range) and they'll start coming into that spot during their cycle more often than not
ye ye
Or recent harvests I mean
codex
w
I haven't used the codex a lot. I hardly even look at my recent harvests just due to the fact you can't scroll down it
I lowkey wish there was a log of every animal you've killed that you could scroll through. Or like a tab that tells you how much of each animal you've shot
-# this is why im building a google spreadsheet tool for it
Legit actually how I know it was an 81 count "grind" for my boar 😂
I don't blame you but that's too much work for me 😂
For my grinds I use a counter app
I'm testing stuffs now before I wrap up the community version
There will be a public copy people can clone and use
Guys I really need help with my g1 wolf grind,idk what to do,I already have like 3 drink zones
First find all of your drink zones. I believe there are 30-40 on Yukon but depends what map you're doing it on
lots of fun stuff in there. how many youve shot of each animal, animals scared, how many you harvested of each rank
Finding wolf drink zones is a workout lemme tell you
i think my animals scared was somewhere around 11k when i checked
wtf why have I never found this
I started that grind very casually
How tf would I find 40 drink zones
It's definitely a challenge lol I haven't even found all of mine yet
check now! let me know ur stats im nosy
Is it in the hunting log or
when i joined friends map
it said i unlocked certain weapons
from there
but i dont have the dlc for it
so can i still get the weaps from there or not?
If you don't own the DLC, no
idk youd have to click around, i cant open the game to check rn
Some guy told me to find 10 then do a cycle between them
where did all the bisons on ridge goo
somewhere in the codex though i think
so why did i get the popup?
I have like 50 deer at this place rn I’m scared
Yep, just don't reduce a flock to less than 2 and you'll be alright.
I don't suggest that just because then you can get respawns in your other zones that you have no clue about
Is there a map to show you where drink zones are
And so at some point you could have some diamonds, rares or even a great one and you'd never know until you found the zone it's in
Every map is different but I can send you a hot spot map if you'd like
If you are willing, yes please
in yukon is rough cause you have the wetlands to search
Okay I'll send it to you
Yeah,I though wolf on Yukon was the easiest
youd have to cover all the drinkign zones in crowngold wetlands and teekon forest innit
My brain is overheating man,this too hard
ljrlkjrekljfkml
totally fair
this is why i dont grind and just crouch-walk around until i hear something
This it
guys in your opion what is the best time to hunt crocs
insane amount of animals scared im almost proud
Prolly because I run everywhere and don't care half the time. Plus usually when I have to get outposts and lookout points I just drive ATVs all over
I wish the ATVs would get an upgrade so they're not so damn finicky.
Also wish we had horses for transport cause they'd be a lot quieter than the atv
I'll get a pic of my stats but it'll be a crappy picture of the screen
Atvs are so fun. I liked focusing on doing the story line missions first so they're a must have when the next mission objective is like 2km away
I always get my outposts first before my missions if I even do the missions
Ok so guys ignoring the steward (i use that shotgun only for birdshot to get shotgun upgrades training is there any weapon i can add in this loadout that can fit in there?
maybe technically a bow or crossbow?
Does anyone actually know what's going on with xbox multiplayer others then it's not working
My multiplayer has almost never worked in the last two years I've had this game
Atleast not public multi
Private multi generally works for me but still pretty finnicky
Guys, where can we see what weapons are in which map dlc?
It has for me it just stopped working a few weeks ago and it's not working for other people as well
Hey can Multiple Haggis spawn on the map or is it like a one and done? Also does it spawn anywhere or in a region?
So far we found it spawns in the top 2/3rds of the map.
And also haven't gotten any confirmed respawns from it
I appreciate it big dawg
Double NAT xbox fix?
how rare is piebald moose?
@junior marsh is this rare maybe? got it when testing the map randomly first spot (sorry for ping i see u answered me before so just checking)
That's a nice little trophy!
It is indeed a rare
how do i know what variants are rare
wish it shwoied the rarity ingame of the variants tbh
I use COTW Companion
lets gooo my first diamnd 🔥
Thanks, but do you care to explain do we care about trophy rating when hunting rare fur types?
As realistically it will never be a diamond for most zpecies along with rare fur types
We can just use non ethical guns right?
I mean for moose i used the proper one but just curious
Also what about diamond hunting, if an animal is diamond and we don't use ethical gun does it lose its trophy? I know our trophy rating lowers but when we put it in lodge it will still show as diamond no?
The rating will go from diamond to gold
But diamonds are usually bigger sizes (same with great ones)
So id u put them in lodge
It will still be same rating no?
In terms of looks
The rating won't change nor the looks but the medal will
Yeah but where can people see that medal?
I personally don't put botched diamonds in the lodge
Since if u go to lodge it just shows u animals, no?
When inspecting the trophy or if you have the trophies on plaques that show the medal
i need to put his in my lodge but idk how
or how to get to my lodge
Yeah but the actual animal would still be diamond
So u see what i mean..
Hey Guys i am facing one issue while joining my friend in multiplayer server it says connection timed out to host....and in my multiplayer tab no public sessions are showing, it says Updating lobby list forever...I am on pc...anyone have any solution ?? 🙁
Yeah but it's lame if you botch it in my opinion
Can we also see the killscreen of diamonds in lodges?
No
So how would they know u botched it
Because you can inspect trophies and it shows the score, medal et cetera
Just put an animal in the lodge and see for yourself
And in the new trophy dlc you can do plaques and mounts that show the medal without inspecting a specific animal
for farming and stuff id say silverridge
Genuinely so tired of night hunting 🥀 but I don't wanna change the time in case it's got something to do with haggis spawning
just wondering- was there actually a Rudolph reindeer on Medved? Is it an annual event, if it even is in the game?
you're thinking of Classic
ah, thought so
oh hell i still gotta go onto Hemmeldal and play that event
Man get you a friend like me 😂 another diamond hare homie happened to be there an he can have it I’ve given out so many duplicates cause I don’t really want two of the same thing
Should I buy emerald coast or askiy
on of my best shots in the game 390m heart shot
Emerald is the best for a first buy map, as it has both a ton of variety and also some serious cash potential.
mb like 380
Good to know
yeah im at like 134k
just croc farming
also how i got my first diamnd like 30 mins ago
but it wasent a croc 😭
I’m rlly short on money rn,bec I need to buy tents to start a wolf g1 grind
If ever you're having a bad day, just look at what this poor Quail had to go through.
yeah tents are hellp expsensive
My first diamond was just a random wolf I shot, I didn’t even know until I examined it
lol w mine was a bengteng
thats whats also good
why does my game crash everytime i try to go to my lodge
about emerald coast
Poor guy didn't even make it a full meter before getting domed
I understand
didnt even see it coming 😭
is this good lodge for a new player for now?
weapons and maps
it's pretty good
the springbok isn't rare btw
i figured
its just uncommon iirc
still put it just for memes
why doo you have ur game windowed
pls fix it its hurting my feelings
its for screenshot
What’s y’all’s first Rare
u cant screenshot with shift+win+s
game doesn't have borderless mode so if you're multitasking you kinda have to deal with it
if u dont window it
yeah
its fullscreen only or shift+enter to get into this mode to screenshot
plus if u alt tab thats what happens..
has the xbox multiplayer issue been resolved?
I’m literally carrying the freaking PlayStation event rn for cotw
anyone else watching lady legend stream rn
i use nvidia app
that makes sense
Are you on steam?
yes
Well then just get the starter pack
And buy dlcs whenever they are on sale and you feel like it
cough
Thought the question was whats ya'lls fave rare-
Anyways my first rare was a Piebald Gator
Awesome
Now that we have mythical animals on cotw, when are we going to get drop bears in emerald coast
Would Love that-
I had a random idea of some prehistoric Dinosaur
Quite the opposite
its 2x cheaper than normal no?
a lot of ppl are saying that silver ridges is one of the Best maps
@versed silo @cobalt spear whats the Best combo under 8$ then
I already have the 4x4 pack
A domino’s pizza
and i would like to have a new map thats good
I ate sushi today 😆
its enough
That cost more than 8$
Hunter's choice and weapon pack 1
And askiy ridge
Of course
without the tents?
Just shocked at the price of that sushi
Oh and the tents too
almkst everyone says that the tents are the most important thing
are they usefull even when ur not grinding?
why are all the voice chats lockied for me?
Yes
They permit you to not have to walk 1.27 km to reach one lake
For instance
you will get it sometime you just need to be actibe
ah i see thanks
np
yeaah that was good
yeah, especially for the areas that take a long time to get to
Far from outposts
No selfies
Mother and father
could someone tell me the scores for diamond on all species in silver ride peaks?
i dont wanna search it up
cotw companion app

ok
turkey 4.62
Worth it
48.50
That’s a mountain lion
yes
Lion is 48.50

Hey guys how do I get the thing in the binoculars that shows how far away you are looking
you have to but it in the shop
Can you tell me where because I can find it
when you go to the store there will be a category for binoculars
I don’t see that, if it helps I’m level 4
its in bwtween consumables and portable structures
Does it matter if I’m level 4
Does anyone have lady legends server? If you do pls send me link
Yeah me too
if you are in the store then you should be able to see it
but you wont be able to buy it
You can find her Discord through her channel. Same to you @gentle void
That is typically how you find creator discords
Clearly not cause I"m looking at it right now lol
Her discord is linked in her videos
is it worth taxidermizing a 4.22 turkey?
