Is this a sign to just blast pheasants with a .300
Bet
theyre neither so go ahead
tell me how the campfire will go
š
im gunna get a sr yak first kill just watch
i took out my anger on a yak using .22lr
specifically didnt go for vital areas
i wanted it to suffer
i hate them
Oh damnš
how f u get that much
38k harvest
Makes sense
u probably have mil hours on hunter
Actually nah heās got maybe 1000
o that better then me
Well damn
Called it
can anyone help?
try going to the "help-and-tips" category
no one replied on there
Insane life-hack just dropped
Can it help with French
You posted in both channels at the same time lol. Plus most people are working or in class. It's middle of the day on a Wednesday
Real
If you ever take a nap in your car during lunch, and you wake up too late. If your boss tries to fire you, ask why he didnt check on you
You could have been having a medical emergency
That doesnāt help with French
Patience young padawan. 
lfg šŖš½
7pm where I live dude, just tryna get some help no need for that
Damn and you dont have all the achievements?
And not everyone is online all the time once out of work? There's dinner. Homework. Kids.
Yoda, I am
hell idk lol, i do most of the missions but i donāt make it a necessity
I realize you probably havent tried for them.
Just have some patience lol. People do read chat when they are on and your message in help channel is still near the top lol
Just i figured you'd get most of them in that amount of time without trying
all i know is shoot 1 male per zone to be safe, as far as which zones are best, not my expertise
hello
My only issue is on one of my main zones Iāve just discovered itās made up of 3 need zones on one drink zone icon, 2 solos and a 3 herd
i got a gold moose
Congrats
best to just shoot one per need zone, it can be hard to tell whoās from which herd & remember that solos can jump into herds and will move again after you shoot them
Okay thankyou for your help
Is the difference between Benelhag and Cacciatore very noticeable? Is it worth buying if I already have the Banelhag?
cacciatore has 6 shots benelhag has 3
i have been using the benelhag and havenāt had any complaints
So to post in suggestions how much do I have to type in here?
So... it's not worth it?
they are locked behind roles that you unlock over time
i would say cacciatore is worth it, it was my main gun before the benelhag, iāve just been liking the new gun is all
Have you ever seen a suggestion post actually end up being used
Will .22 LR work on whitetail?
no, .22 is for class 1 animals, whitetail are class 4
Whitetail are 243 or 308
Aight preciate it
was just curious bc im feeling too lazy to go buy more ammo š
people use the .22 to shoot near them if they are at a bad angle, it will alert them and the will face you so you can get a better angle
The system is only a few months old... their dev cycles are around a year
So not likely yet
if you donāt care about the kill itself (not a trophy) most people use overpowered weapons to take down them down and get respawns without having to worry as much about shot placement
On this note,
Soft point or polymer for 308? Or does it not matter
Yeah I currently donāt really care for trophies Iām just trynna stack money before I actually set up a g1 grind or something, just started the game 2 days ago
well shooting with the proper ammo does give you more cash per kill so
I see
as long as you pass all the vital checks i should say
Thanks for the help man
The only thing that changes, I think, is the penetration; otherwise, when it comes to taking down animals, only the caliber matters.
š
To clarify, while it isn't ethical, you can cull any animal with .22lr truncated rounds. You'll lose a trophy rating but it will absolutely kill them if you dome them.
You can even cull class 9s with it, and at long range.
Omg I think I just found my second diamond
That's my reward for terrorizing the goat population
Depends on engagement range. Polymer is better at most ranges within 200m, since it can double-organ, break through bone and force easy vitals. Expansion rounds really only shine at long range or in situations where the Pen rounds can no longer double-lung; in these situations, Expansion rounds will still be able to single-lung, and the damage they do will reduce an animal's run time by 2-3x their normal run distance with a single-vital hit with Polymer.
The downside is shot angle consideration, Expansion rounds are harder to use efficiently because they more easily glance off of targets facing towards you.
.243 soft point ammo at two opposing angles, for reference.
Most necasary ping in history š
Nevermind it had a potential score of 184-210 and it turned out to be a 184.87 smh
mount slander?
fill me in
Anyone using reshade on this game?
No and discussing mods is against the server rules
Got it
look i gotta give credits and who knows maybe theyll see it and do smth LOL
oh just casual breakdowns over not being able to fit goats on certain things
Where oh where have my piggies gone
i mean i did have those too
š½ļøš
your boi is on the grind for my first rare fur typeee
canada geese are easy peasy
thats goats for you
I'm going to slaughter 200 more
I hope they get the message
they deserve it
they need to be humbled
so anyway
i was already contemplating doing a 3/2 split
2 shot-down males and 3 shooters
I would do 3 shot down and 2 shooters
You always want more shot down then shooters i would say
Like with normal grinds
Wow yukon main story line is beautifull
I kept getting cutscenes so cool was pretty shot tho š
Starting a g1 gray wolf grind maybe idk how to start it lol
TGD
Ok im convince i have immortal deer on my grind map 𤣠i shot a vital and the suckered still didn't drop š¤£
Do yall think that fishing is gonna be possible in this game?
I dont think so since they already have a fishing game called "Call Of The Wild The Angler"
guys where and what time do kudus drin in vurhonga if u can pls help
18:00-21:00 in small water sources
When hunting goose diamonds do I just keep decimating flocks till a diamond spawns?
Yup, gotta kill the entire flock for respawns anyways
Thanks
Sup everyone
Ohhhhhhš
Okay
Is it possible for a higher level animal to spawn in at a zone I havenāt even shot anything in? Iām rotating through my main zones and it feels like Iām getting less high level spawns, not more. I havenāt even seen a single diamond in a hot minuteš
Yeah with solos
Could've had a male bounce out or you shot a solo
Pretty sure I havenāt shot any solos. I definitely suck at grinding for G1s though lol. Iām running out of patience!
can do! just terrible luck im p sure
also if ur on a map with predators i imagine they can scare them away on their way to zones
RARE AGGRESSIVE BLACK BEAR
Pretty sure it's not diamond
sr for only a short moment before death and u cant save this one :(((
she did actually charge at me too, terrible screenshot but as u can see the screen is slightly red
most freaked out ive been in a hot minute LMAO
How rare is a female 9 legendary gray fox ?
That's possible?
Yeah
I saw one in a multiplayer lobby but got kicked out
As rare as any other legendary id imagine
Grey fox can make Diamond as male,female, lvl 8 and lvl 9
Hello everyone i have a question what are the best wepons in the game?
I mean for any class like 1 or 2-6 or 7-9
Im pretty sure all the 22 rifles are about the same and yeah bows and crossbows are for every class
Ok
pretty rare. they can only be initial.
300 magnums are my personal go to for 7-9 if you want a rifle
i have a dime female two tone gray fox off missi
.375, .303/7mm, .257, .22lr virant, 12ga cacciatore
Nothing is better than that
Thx
.300 is what i use mainly to grind
I botched a max score male on missiš
rip
this^^^
i botched the female dime so
.300 is goated for grinding except moose
its a dime technically but i .300 blasted it, lol
didnt know it was a level 9 female just seen a fox running through the woods while i was chasing a pig and sniped it
was mad af when i picked it up and it said gold female šš
I got a max score female off nem so that makes up for it tbh
Im yet to do a moose grind what do you use for those?
.300
.375
.375
yep
they both work fine
.375 will do it , but if u can hit heart shots. i think the .300 has better penetration?? correct me if im wrong
.375 has better pen
ah
Makes sense
You're only shooting 1 per zone so no need for a semi auto
i never really mess with the .375 but im gonna have to try it out
thats fair
I just got the game on ps since i play on that more than the xbox anymore so i get to start all over again
bet
Haiiiii!
hiiii
i have to use it more now , im sleeping on it apparently
i gotta go make dinners
Have funnn
wheres all the ducks and birds on revontuli all the lakes are empt
patience is a virtue
join pro xck's server, has maps for all the animals on every map
I havenāt hunted birds much on that map but I know thereās a great spot for water fowl on that little island on the bottom right of the map.
Have you gotten a chance to try .375 soft tip yet?
Pen>expansion
Got a 14.9 diamond red fox, good half hour hunt for once lmao
If i didn't have the soft-points equipped, I would have gotten lung
Completely forgot about that tbh
I'll get some moose with it at different ranges
this will always be my main discord server for cotw but is anyone aware of cotw servers dedicated to ambusher/stalker playersā servers that are maybe less grinder-centric and more immersive hunter oriented?
I used the 30-30
breh i shot a turkey with .243 cos i was bored, turns out it was a diamond that i stuffed up
Thatās your problem
.30-30 is one of the absolute worst calibers for its bracket
Also the .30-30 in game has to be the stupidest looking, ugliest lever gun in existence
It doesnāt remotely resemble any real guns
also in the 7mm campā I do everything I can to try to pull away from the malmer to mix it up but with all the right rifle perksāit makes it my go-to choice most of the time
ADD CROSSPLAY.
OK I WILL
Itās kinda baffling the Whitlock is such an ugly disaster because like, the Vallgarda is a 1:1 perfect copy of the real life Kimber Caprivi, and thatās a trademarked gun
So why couldnāt they have copied an old winchester for the .30-30? All the copyrights are expiredāand instead they made some awful chinese bootleg
Nevermind that .30-30, one of the most popular cartridges ever, is just terrible in this game
I personally donāt see a reason to use anything but the Gandhare for its class range, except at extreme ranges
Mine is bright blue too youād hate it
No honestly it already looks like a fortnite/nerf gun so you might as well commit
The question I have is why you bother with .30-30
Its one of my go - tos tbh, just always used it
What do you suggest as a replacement?
You got it boss!
Yeah thatās the vibes I went for
(Adding crossplay would require the entire game engine to be rewritten it would not be an easy or quick feat)
The devs have commented about that
Hey guys, Iāve heard that the longer a feeder stays in a specific location the more deer that will come to it cause they get used to coming there every day. Have yāall found this to be true?
Honestly i feel like its really not necessary for this game to even have crossplay
It would be nice but really isnt gonna be a deciding factor for most people buying the game
I agree ngl
Also less likely to end up in a dodgy online public lobby on console apparently
I donāt mind not having it , cross progression may be nice but shrug that also leaves it open to modded pc files reaching console which would really stink
absolutely!
I sometimes forgot people actually play this game modded to get more rares
I do enjoy the little quirks and benefits of pc .. namely being able to make manual backups rather than relying on console or platform cloud saves
Tbh this game has fantastic performance for me
I aināt ever trust a cloud save
much respect for going with a classic one-shot š«” anything of the more trad variety Iām in favor ofānot a fan of the ARs
You mean like basically impossible
Look what spawned into my cull herd while doing ballistics tests.
What are āballistics testsā
Yes and no. In order for them to find it, they have to travel within 400m of the feeder. It can take a few days for everything that could be in range to find it and start coming to that feeder
I'm testing various calibers' damage potential between their Penetration and Expansion ammo types, since there's no actual info on this subject. Was using class 6 Gemsbok as the control test for various class 2-6 rifles.
But you'll not get endless amounts coming - there's an end point. More may show up if you kill another zone elsewhere and it moves within range but that's it
Actual kinda useful mostly useless information, w test
I miss The angler updsš¢
Donāt we all
yes
But thereās a better fishing game out
ik
Free on mobile
fr?
Yea
Well I put a feeder in a part of the map nowhere near where Iāve been hunting and only three herds have come in 6 hours of game time sitting in the blind. I had deer show up about six times in a four hour game time sit on a different map on my second game day of having the feeder there.
More useful than expected, I've discovered that in some cases expansion rounds kill 3x faster than their penetration equivelant. Can't wait to compile this all into a vid.
Nah I donāt
That is very normal. Did you make sure that feeder is within the correct range for them to find it? Also note it can take 2-4 day/night cycles for them all within range to find it
If u like retro games that is
Probably rarer than a G1..
Which
Iāll keep at this spot. Itās in front of one of the buildable blinds and those are always on travel and feed routes so it should be a great spot 90% of the time for deer feeders.
It'll only be great if you have zones within range
If you don't, it's a waste
I donāt have discovered zones but thereās probably undiscovered zones.
All of the blinds are not guaranteed travel spots
Dont the feeders just migrate the need zones or something
Nope
The animals that are attracted to the feed you have in it have to travel within 400m of the feeder in order to "discover" it
Then they have a chance to return to that feeder during their feed time
Ah
So if you just go around placing them anywhere, you'll likely see some poor results
Yeah i havent used them much at all tbh
Fair enough
Iām back from the evil school
a school teaching you to be evil?
shocking
Cann someone send me their wepons i make a challenge whit my frind whe ask people for their wepons and who gets a dia first wins
this is the most confusing thing i've ever heard

hi there who do i report bugs to

Hello
Unfortunately my entire musical library is whatever Iāve either heard on the telly or whatever autoplay has chucked at me idk any others
Ppl be asking . What bands do you like ! And Iām just shrugging like . I donāt know . I donāt know a single band .
I'm on xbox
Welcome! Try in #š¦ļø“find-a-game
i see u being a huge beatles fan i already know
so get listening to them please and thank you
I donāt know if there is a single beatles song on any of my extensive playlists
I have one for 2010s nostalgia . Also one for just generally absolute classics
my life philosophy is there is a beatles song for everyone
tom petty and the heartbreakers on top
my life revolves around the beatles and nothing else its quite boring
kill john lennon though
travelling willburys will always hhae my heart and rest in peace tom ā¤ļø
ringo is simply the untouchable goat
fr i love travelling wilburys
i dont know how much u know but i can tell you a lot about mr starkey
No beatles in my library
all i need to know is octopus's garden
simply peak
Got some cranberries and drums though
i think u may just be a bad driver grim. or ur realising ur brother in law is a meth producer
christmas is over get that sauce outta here (its my fave sauce i love it and eat it all year round)
change that? ā¤ļø
If they pop up
put octopus's garden in there bro
i got a lot of beatles in my playlist but octopus's garden is just the best
UNBEATABLE

YouTube music smart downloads is honestly exceptionally unintelligent

Perfectly reasonable topic to talk about in caps id say
hey it aint his fault he cant buy a shower how would u get a job if u were that size
can someone help me find my white tail zones
Hey guys, I know you make less money if you make a poor shot on an animal. What if I make a good heart lung shot but it runs and Iām not sure and I shoot it again and get a flesh wound for the second shot. Does that hurt my cash for the animal?
Dude you ask this all the time and you know where you're supposed to ask š
if ur making a heart + lung shot i dont think its running š
womp womp
idk if it hurts your money
Heart or lung shot. It can run if you just a hit a single lung.
Heart shot is an insta kill
it don't run from heart ones, those just drop or walk like 2 steps
wait not if its a moose acc they run for about 5 seconds from a heart shot⦠and never make diamond YES i am salty
Heart, brain and neck immediately kill
i hate the meese bro
Does this really need to involve mods or can you just do as they've told you before š
why would it and no
Did i hear clam?
Im still not totally convinced diamond moose are real
cannot believe someone would voluntarily disrespect the kindest member of the server
ive gotten a super rare so they do
I got trolled once by one lol
FACT
I think my grandmas got a couple but she also has like 4k hours on this game
3 trolls no dime for me i literally dont bother shooting moose
W granny bro, granny hitting cotw is fire
She used to hunt irl but she hasnt gone out in a couple years so she plays this to scratch the itch
look at how moose are scored next time you shoot one, any differences is subtracted from the score, so if itās a 50:50 rack, itāll have a much lower score than if it is even
That's actually cool af icl
W grandma
oh also
you
Hi honse!
i am too dumb to understand what u mean by this i am sorry
hey honse!
yes?
I just completely reset 370 hrs on this game just to re play

250m pellet gun vital? š¤Ø
I refuse to grind meese im too lazy
I want. Cake
Might be the goat tbh
Wrong reply whoops
Meant to reply to this one
I might have to mess around with pellet guns at some point
got the liver not lung BUT still a vital from 224m with pellets im happy (and jt was a feral goat ššš)
W
its annoying at first but now im getting used to it i lowk love it
My most impressive hit was a bow shot so it doesnt countš
oh? do tell?
I despise trying to use the pistols for stuff tbh
idk if u know the gun but iron sights only lol
Yeah thats rough
i have a loadout with like ācowboyā esque guns for rev cos i can LOL
Totally fair

Cheap too
wait ehats this for
Ecaller is a waste of 4 dollars
Point and shoot bow hunt tiger NOW
4-9
60/60 pen and expansion dude
Its pretty solid ignoring its lack of sights
no gun wise!
Iron Sights make it fun
Gandhare
what gun is it is what i mean my b
OHHHH
Yeah the grandhare rifle
i do like it thats what i put in for moose in my cowboy one lol
i dont grind but i think this is a BAD signā¦
Itās literally the best gun in game
What pack are the pellet guns fromš
Or g1 #4 coming soon
The one with the drilling rifle iirc
Same thing happened with the previous 3
I could be wrong
I got trolled by a water buffalo š
Normal
I just point and chase and sometimes shoot hunt them for miles
sorry was busy decreasing the surplus population of roe deer on this lake. 3 pellets only 100m out not a single spooked and all dead š¼
i LOVE this gun sometimes
now GET THAT 4TH G1!!!!
House
Dr House Lego set would be hilarious
Ngl i assumed it was a house lego set
Was about to say "that's definitely not Lego"
I wasnt even gonna question it
Its never lupusš
It was lupus once
Car
The phrase was literally said once in the series
its never lupus
its lupus... NOT!
Anyone got any fun ideas? Getting burnt out on the game already and g1 grinding just aināt for me bc I donāt have the mental fortitude to find a bunch of drink zones just to hunt the same thing for hours on end
just hunt naturally, load up a map in the morning, get a loadout that covers all the classes on the map & go out looking for kills, diamonds/rares will be your main goal
Use the bowš
Ive killed a dozen crocs and the highest level one ive seen on my map is a 5 im losing my mind
yeah thatās normal thatās their mid level basically, i just shot every croc i seen, set tents every 300m or so, when you pop out of the tent they will be slow to react & you can pop a few before the flee
Normally i find at least a 6 or higher on my passes
burnout ALREADY? how long have u been playing?
Im seeing no higher than 5s and mostly 3s and 4s
Bayonet charge deer š
this is how i hunt always. i asked how long theyve been playing cos if they said āalreadyā and if tjey just started out a week or two back G1 grinding is wild like enjoy the whimsy of the gmae dude its not a race theres no fomo here take ur time š
-# me doing a g1 grind less than 3 months in lol
sorry have u been playing LESS than me???
Only fomo is the limited time events for exclusive skins, but even then, yeah, take your time lol
i started back up september/october
OMG WAIT I THINK WE PICKD THE GAME UP AT THE SAME TIME LOL
Started my boar grind before Christmas lol
I've had the game for ages but never really put any time into it
tbf part of me really does wanna set up a G1 grind but i forced myself to get bacj into this game to escape the monotony of every other games āgrindā and stupid fomo bs
i played all the way back like 2018/19 with my brother a bit. played a bit of classic before that too acc. bought it on ps maybe 2022? couldnt get into it again and tried a few other times. finally in september i got fed up and forced myself to be bored a little and got so into the game after about a week
I want to do a g1 grind but heard management makes my head hurt
was genuinely like tough love on myself, i picked it up cos i remember how it was so like hard to get good things and i needed to get away from instant gratification lol
i kinda get it but yeahhh
I bought it probably 2 years ago? Played like 10 minutes then realized the singleplayer didn't play like cabelas big hunt at all and put it down for later
Picked it up again when my husband was playing classic and told him we should play this together cause it's only a couple bucks
The foundation of it is pretty simple but gets complicated in explanations when people talk about methods they use with it not just how it works
Yall going to watch the solitary gourmet?
my gf picked it up randomly and its been so nice to play with her, i wasnt sure about multiplayer on the game but idk having someone else on the map just makes it feel more fun
the wha?
How do people find so many golds and diamonds? Is it just luck or do I need to sink thousands of hours into the game
You certainly don't need to sink thousands of hours in for them! Just spend some time running around your map and shooting the biggest animals you see. You'll end up starting to pick them up naturally
I got four diamonds before my 150 hour mark just doing that across what maps I had
Oh my god he looks so gooood
Now I have almost 40 cause I'm doing a boar grind lol
Mainly luck! You have to kill pretty much everything you see so new spawns come in with a chance of being diamond
How do we judge size? Is it based on difficulty or whatever
How do we kill everything without causing dead zones? Aside from using tripods and stuff
Anyone know how to repair an Xbox 360?
Difficulty is your most simple indicator. Followed by weight estimates (skill unlock) and trophy estimates (skill unlock and most accurate)
You change spots every so often so previous zones clear out of course
Your level 6 red deer is most likely bigger than your level 5. Then you can narrow it down further through the weight ranges and even further by trophy scores. Some like to be different levels in disguise
Like with my boar, I get some 3s that are trophy estimates that top out at 70 while I have 2s that top out at 90
Yeah, without the points indicator, your best hint is their difficulty and the looks/size of their organ trophy
It definitely gives you enough of an indicator that you can start picking up golds and diamond
I think so
I don't know where the other possible diamond went
Is difficulty a completely arbitrary number?
He's missing...
Nope! It ties directly into weight and trophy score
technically max difficulty animals spook more often
Each difficulty has an acceptable range for that species
Shhhhh, I totally know what I'm saying
Yup
For example, level 3 boar can be in two different weight ranges - 175-292lbs (shared by 2s) and 292-410lbs (shared by 4s)
And give less warning calls depending on the species
But they'll always fall within that range
Well, for male boar
The difficulty vs size/trophy varies based on sex as well
i love reading cotw discussions at 2am
im cosy in bed playing animal crossing and stressing more about hardwood than i ever have in cotw
I miss animal crossing š
I so desperately need a PC version of that game to play
Still have my original DS one but like... I'm a PC master race peeps now
Can the goats in the Australian region be piebald?
Because I think I see one
Oh I found the second goat!!
It was a gold, I did find and shoot a third one though
Canāt be piebald rares for feral goats are mixed,black,and albino
can i send clips somewhere?
im playing NH on my switch!! i havent played in a long time but insta harassed me with ACNH videos and theres an update soon soooo
If it fits in with conversation typically it's okay, but the server rules are against self promo type of stuff so random drops are usually a no-go
If Nintendo would stop being a sleazy company, I'd get a switch just for that game
Im in one of the dlc maps
And a fourth one???
Probably a mixed then tyty
Hell yeah brother!!
You I'm new and I need help on te aura
More likely to be a gold but go for it!
Diamonds for bears are usually 9 - Legendary
Anyone on pc thats wants to play?
Yeye
Try #š¦ļø“find-a-game !
Always*
Just found it moment of truth
Good to know
Yo can somebody just help me on TIA Aurora please
You on pc?
Yo I just need somebody to play Hunter
Yeh it was a white and brown goat
Yo thx bro
Playing emerald coast as an australian is super awkward
When they say crikey and mate it sounds so forced
Does anyone here on Xbox know why itās saying āhost is no longer presentā when anyone tries to join me or my friendsās games? I then tried to server hop and it was telling me the same thing
Omg why am I so lucky
Commonly reported issue for xbox in #1062059141436297246 - essentially xbox peer to peer sucks terribly and it's been worse since the last update. Probably the smallest hair out of place causing it to break
correct. they are on your map until you kill them
That's awesome. I found an albino and a 6th potential diamond that both went opposite ways
Oh and I saw a diamond bear in Alaska
Also why am I seeing so many good goats?? Is there like a streak of kills that increases your odds
How is my message being blocked
Due to rules when thereās not even a cuss word
Itās about herd management
When you take down something, its respawn will be of similar-ish size in most cases. So getting a few good ones means youre likely to keep seeing good ones come in. It's the same reason that herd management works
Maybe try rephrasing. Something obviously caught the automod
So I might be struggling on these YouTube guides for mule deer management. On mule deer so itās been several times Iāve gotten the 4s stacked in locations probably about the third time maybe 200-500 harvests it goes down to 2s and level 4s some 3s but when I kill those 3s they stay the same so then I start shooting the high two fours hoping a diamond spawns but it always messes up
And just spawns more 3s and 4s
But havenāt seen one level 5
Iāve seen trophy ratings in scouting be above diamond hit kept those shot lower ones yet 5s still wonāt spawn
I guess what Iām asking is there something Iām doing wrong or that spawns are just working against me
You probably got a diamond in your exteriors
That approach sounds so messy to me... but I'm also not overly familiar with mules
Iāll check all my exteriors real quick but I feel like I got tents on every pond and havenāt even missed a solo spawn
Jumping
I usually kill solos to spawn them with my highs
I'd honestly try to make solos all your baby lv1-2 so you can ignore them forever lol
solos bouncing about can be a bit of a pain
I think I'm involuntarily doing herd management because I have been following the same herd for a while now
has anyones feeders and tripods disappear on their maps?
never mind they're back now
left the map and came back
weird glitch or something for the first time
DIAMOND OMG
OOOOO
Okay wow those are the BIGGEST horns I've seen on a gold
I am rendering my first The Hunter youtube video rigth now! I am so so excited haha. its been a while since i edited a video and it was so much fun
oh thats weird, maybe ask in #š¦ļø“help-and-tips
Whelp, finally had time to hunt my first mink... only to realize I forgot to switch my loadout back to medium/small game and blasted it with a .300 mag
yo
Try to guess which one is my diamond smh
The first pic
The lighter colored one
It's actually the second one, the brown one
But somehow both have the same sized horns
It's the angle of them
See where the second one is close to a 90 degree angle out to the sides
I though only symmetry mattered
Well the more you know!!
The first one is more up than squared
I have a nasty troll from them and learned this then lol
The size is like 40% bigger than my other golds too so I was fully convinced that I got a second diamond š
Ngl I think it happens to everyone bro
Iāve only gotten one, but Iāve definitely messed up 5+
Then again this is a new account being as I switched from Xbox to pc š
Ya, its my only trophie male cause I have a mela female
Got a pic of that one? š
Nah not rn
I shot it when I was level 7 so it was just like 7 shots from soft point 243 so I messed it up severally
Prolly still pretty tho š
Yeah, I got it mouthed next to the diamond
Mounted
And unfortunately I got that before a diamond black bear or any ibex on my grinds that Im only setting up now
should i use my zarza .22lr for a red fox?
I mean you can but itās the wrong ammo. You need a class 2 weapon
Donāt be sad
Admittedly I am a little confused how you shot so low, though. Have you considered a rifle with a flatter trajectory?
I shot one like that today defending myself with a .308
Starting defending myself with a pistol
Against wolves
Generally speaking, aside from some ridiculous outliers, the game tries to embody a logic of using rounds that are powerful enough to be ethical while still not destroying the animal, and these days .22 is simply not considered ethical for fox hunting
Why did cotw add iberian wolves instead of making them gray wolves? Yet other gray wolves on many maps arent different despite them being geographically different subspecies
huh?
Yeah
And...
Why they make em different?
Like only cuatro colinas gray wolves
Dude how
ā¦nvm
Medved shud have their own species of gray wolf by that logic yk
That's like... how subspeciation works š
And so shud yukon valley gray wolves
Yeah but like
Whyād they make them distinct
Ik but
They didnāt get around to making specific variants yet aside from iberian ones, itās as simple as that
because they are different
Iberian wolves are smaller overall for one
With different standard markings and colorizations
There are 38 subspecies of gray wolf, practically all gray wolves are recognizably different from one another unless from the same region
why can i not join vc
Mackenzie valley /timber wolf subspecies would be in Yukon and eurasian gray wolves in medved
Yeah ik
You have to level up by chatting in the server first
Are iberian wolves endangered

fair
well hi
If you know then I really don't understand why this is such a thing š
Yukon wolves are fine
Weāre not allowed to shoot endangered animals (except for tigers) and many gray wolf subspecies are endangered
Well cud js change the name for them
i just started this game does anyone wanna help?
No
?
The ones on Yukon are accurate
Js talking bout their names tho
are those dlcs?
We arenāt allowed to shoot endangered animals in this game
Most gray wolf subspecies are endangered
We do not get different names for the same animal
Hence they wouldnāt be included
But they are
We get different names when the animals are different sizes and require different furs
Yeah but
which I've said... like 3 times lol
do i have to talk alot Xd
Im js saying a different animal, to hunt, different wolf subspecies in medvet, and
Dude ik
Iberian wolves are much more morphologically distinct than the grey wolves found other places
-_- yall arent getting me
The other ones are the same
No I am
You aren't getting anything š š
Literally explained the reason why and you're all "ik but"
Honestly youāre right
Iberian wolves are endangered as well, one of the most endangered, so it is strange they included them specifically
We have endangered ones. That's not a restriction anymore
Iām js saying that since they made a distinction between Iberian gray wolves, but still generalize gray wolves, why not make subspecies of the yukon valley and medved wolves?
I get you
im listening
I get the concept that Medved and other places could have subspecies but when you look at the morphological differences they are close enough
As long as it fits within the story it works
Then ig we js disagree thats fine
Hmm. Idk how to feel about that
Cause we don't need completely different models and names and such when they are essentially identical š
So ig its like what weāre doing w mule deer snd blacktails igā¦
my lawd
I donāt even disagree with you
Itās like I said, they just havenāt gotten around to adding other wolves
Well we did for Bighorn
We got desert bighorn now
Because they arenāt as morphologically distinct š editing the model and furs doesnāt make as much sense
Oh and grey wolf is a g1 species
bro i just wanna vc XC
Have you even looked at the models vs the animals??
Canāt really break it down
Yeah
Ur saying what im sayingš
You are too dense for me at nearly midnight
There ARE multiple gray wolf subspecies that are quite distinct from generic gray wolves. Iberians are one of them, but I donāt know how many others there are that would be represented in the geographic regions in game
does anyone got a sec to lend me a hand
Well only 3 would be added then
The locations in question have such a small difference between them.. it's not worth the hours upon hours of work
No you are hdisan and she is Informality
Very funnyā¦
ok
Tbh we probably should see some himalayan wolves in sundarpartan
Ur talking about work and time then right? How its js simpler to leave things as they are since theyāre genetically similar anyways?
yees
Alberta and Alaska interior wolves arenāt that different š idk about the ones in Siberia but since itās a similar ecological area Iād imagine they look close to the same.
It is!
Iām js speaking taxonomically wise, if i see a different subspecies i view it as a different subspecies
it says to chat a little bit ive chatted alot and i cant vc lol
If i see whitetail in another state, i see them differently then the ones in my home state
Same for every other animal
I like differentiating between subspecies
16 messages isn't a lot
True, taxonomically that would make sense but I get why they donāt change the names in game. While map specific names would be really cool the biggest issue is that grey wolves have a great one now
whats alot?
There's also a cooldown per message so sending a bunch close together doesn't move it along faster either
Iowas whitetail are a mix of the kansas whitetail subspecies and the boreal northern woodland subspecies BUT⦠i wouldnāt wanna make alot of subspecies for deer in a hunting game
how many should i aim for lol
Just... engage with the community naturally?
ā¦yeah in the end its much easier to do what informality said
It'll happen when it happens. It doesn't take overly long
ur kinda an ass for that ngl, i have issues typing so i perfer to chat over call.
Im js saying what ifs and stuff, ofc its easier to generalize
And do whatever the community says.
how does that make me an ass its literally how it works š
bruh
Ur an ass cuz i said so duh
Jeezzzz
Must be a full moon tonight my lordy
Imagine moose subspecies in the game
Yukon moose being huge.
No one is making fun of you??
calling people an ass for explaining how to gain access to vc š š
That would go so hard I cannot lie
I hope we get Sitka blacktail eventually
i didnt over react lol u didnt have to be rude lol couldve just gave a range
There is no range lmao
I'm upset at Chrissy
British Columbia when
and then blacktail deer cud have their name changed to Columbian blacktail
She was being cute but didnt let me take a picture
coues deerš¤
Actually they dont need to
Yesss
thanks for letting me know
Yessss
Fr
Dude i rancho del arroyo whitetail
