True, forgot the lion. Doesn't make sense that it's a class 9 to be honest xD
Allows you to use the 470 on it
Which is prototypical btw
Most places require at least .375 H&H or equivalent to hunt lions where it’s allowed
What is the best whitetail and caribou hunting rifle?
whitetail = AR308 and for reindeer you can use it as well (I myself really like the grelck drilling rifle although it is only single shot)
Yeah currently using 308 just didnt know if there was smthing better seen people using the 300 but couldnt find it in the store
the 300 is a class 7-9 weapon and comes with the yukon dlc
Ok, thanks
What’s the best place for black bear on Layton
But in game it's about integrity, and there are less powerful guns used with other animals that would do well against lions too. I guess it's because of danger, and if a lion is attacking you, you want it to die as fast as possible. But if it's about size, weight and thickness of the skin, lions should be lower
So me and my friend want to play Me (pc) my friend (xbox 1) is it possible to play together?
No.
k thanks
Might be stypid question, but do i have to get 100% quick kill bonus or can that affect score so that diamond becomes gold?
not anymore
Hmm ok. So is even 0% ok? I strugle to get any double lungs shot on moose
yeah
i find heart better personally but moose are a animal where the 30-06 is ethical for them but a gun like the 7mm or 308 i feel is nearly required for double lungs
It nets you less cash and xp, but it won’t affect the trophy rating
I am mostly using 308 but i feel like so often i have to take slightly angled shot and its not penetrating enough even with polytips, so i started using soft tips and getting faster kills now
I really want to play this game, but I have no clue what dlc to buy or if I should buy any dlc to begin with, are there any recommendations?
Well smoking barrel and A map like Silver ridge or Yukon is good to start with
But the maps really depends on what you want to hunt
But for good guns pick up smoking barrel
ive been reading online and it says that the diamond bundle is the best option? is that true?
Well it may be
what do you have?
to many dlc i had an dlc adiction so i want to help other people from getting one
but i have not all
few gun dlcs
most maps
Tents
atw
But to me stick with 1 map few gun dlc and tent
Dont get an adiction like me you will get poor
okay
If you dont have the money ofc
would it be a good idea to buy the starter bundle with one gun pack?
hmm lemme see
wait theres a starter bundle?
cant find any
Only diamond bundle
and gold
yea im looking on gg.deals
Oh
then im off guard bc i thought you was on steam
Call of the Wild™ - Gold Bundle
would have recomended this if you was on steam
Bc Te awaroa great map
and 2 gun dlcs that is okay
but for that amount of money you could get the diamond pack
yea
Well it depends on what you want
Atleast for me medved is crap
bc of my cpu
and memory
otherwise it would be great
But it feels wrong to tell other people what to buy
so buy whatever you think that would be great
is there any reason for me to NOT skip the night in hirsch?
I really cannot find one
wait what cant you find? im just a little confused when i read the whole sentence
i can't find a reason
to not sleep
on hirsh
because nothing goes on at night
yes and i'm unlucky
they're all deeply forested
oh
but then again most of their feeding zones are in great treestand spots
yea
I have 1 good sleep zone and it's just roe deer per usual
I have
and I actually do have a 00:00 - 3:00 fallow deer spot right by water
so I am gonna check that out
yea you do that
nice
I have had plenty of people helping me so i wanted or try to help someone back atleast ones
do you know if scents are worth the time and money
well ofc not atleast for me they are expensive maybe they work idk but never botherd to buy any i use the spray that cover sent and use callers
im level 20 something
and never used em
ye I only got 30k I don't think they're worth
nope then not
just save to a good rifle and ammo 👌
7mm is a good choise with no dlcs
nice
dont have the dlc but i have yukon
and there is a rifle there to buy for 75k for class 7-9
am i able to buy dlcs from different platforms where i bought the base game?
You can't use DLCs you've bought from other platforms
thats too bad
im hesitating
how to make roe deer stop existing 😭
i think im gonna tho
Delete the game 👌
or go on another map
EZ
go on another map is ofc the better choise
i found it boring to grind on same map
so just change to make the game ´LESS GRINDY´
i hunt on SRP and REV
but only those 2 bc i cant handle 3 or more maps
to hunt on
bc then i have to buy more tents
and tents are not worth buying so long you dont have 20k per tent
Well tell me later what you bought if you buy anything (you dont have to tell me ofc but if ya want)
best dlc weapons?
.300 and .308
which ones to be specific-
One is yukon
.300 Canning Magnum and Zarza .308
is what ya need for these
hm?
ok I assuming I'm getting around 25$ for babysitting so what dlcs should I buy, I already have high tech, modern rifles, ATV, treestands, and cuatro
Questions to ask that I don’t even know what to ask yet?
Lol I played maybe 3-4 hours months/year ago. Found the game tedious bc I didn’t know what I was doing and just wanted a arcade style shooter like I thought I remembered from early 2000’s computer hunting games.
Got looped back in on a YouTube video and want to restart or soft restart. My biggest challenge is the speed at which I move and causing noise. I also hardly find animals. I think that maybe bc I haven’t looked at any time based things like sleeping/eating drinking. But I don’t know what I don’t know. Any advice on how to start learning or what I need to learn?
revontuli, te awaroa for sure
Smoking barrel is pretty good to, and te awaroa just as Syliphn said
never tested te awaroa thou
watch beginner guides, walk, look for drink zones
why does everyone love te awuora
awstormy
Haven’t had much time to watch yt more on the game yet but what I did see was someone just walking on the waterlines to discover drink times so they save on the map.
whatever it's auto correct
its cracked for red deer
atleast for me is bc of animals and the beutiful background of big mountains
YOU CAN GET TURKEYS TOO??? awh yeahhh
but as i said only tested get crashed edition (online)
I have too many issues with random online
it works fine with a friend
but random its
complicated
it crashes
alot
Great its just like argentina feels like big trees some terain some open areas
Its great map
i have it
I think I'm gonna buy te awara, parque fernado, trophy lodge, and whichever weapons pack is most recommended
Weapon pack 1 and Smoking is good start
not rlly into bows
the mosin is rlly good right?
mosin is good
and loooooong slow reload
the muzzleloader is busted tho
or its just me who is noob with it
also you can just quick-reload with it
oh
well is it better than the m1 garand, cause i'm a ww2 enjoyer
I btw i would need traing to learn how to use mussel loader
As a former cod player i can say i agree
mosin is really good on class 3 animals
I have 4-8 covered, I'm just looking for a good secondary rifle
243
wait there's a shotgun pistol?
the .410, yes
is it worth it
not really
yeah ig i'll take weapons pack 2
the m1 is cool but the nagant pack has better stuff
what is nagat pack?
mosin nagant
yea
oh
btw the .410 birdshot stinks
the .45 isnt that bad
ok so smoking guns or weapons pack 2
well if you have the .308 already the smoking barrel's main weapon, the m1 doesn't have much use
and the muzzleloader is a niche weapon
so i guess WP2
Can every animal that is 1 level below max level make diamond?
Okie, ty
Hello i leveled up but I didn't receive any skill points or perks im level 42
Normal
After lvl 37, you start getting one point per 3 levels
so im trying to complete the quest "setting up" in silver ridge peaks and i got to the outpost and the guy said his line about the rifle after i went over to the locker outside thats lit up, but nothing's happening. nothing happens when i press e on it, theres nothing i can interact with other than the bed and the cache. am i stuck? will restarting the game fix this?
i just relaunched the game, i interacted with the locker and it made an openning noise and nothing else happened
nvm, the bag was inside to complete the quest
I am trying to do quest Parque Fernando Missions: "Shot for Shot" and theres a rock in the way of my target so it wont complete
What missions give special rewards?
Like there’s one hirschfeldon one that gives an albino fallow
this is photo of quest target i have to stand in this spot so the target shows but that rock is blocking the target
phew
best map for bears
gimme a picture of the map and ill highlight potential zones
Known issue
forgot these exist @devout solstice here you go
Thanks
Outdated
still works
this needs to be yellow and second pic needs to be red
and thats it
Not that
add this next to mr black
I mean jaxy said that we could do it
im not adding it
its unintentional and shouldnt be that way
so im not gonna update it because of a bug
Did they said in the community update if their gonna remove GO possibilities from mr black?
I didn't read it yet
Given that it’s on the known issues list………
who the hell is mr black
a bear
oh ok. black bear. why is it called mr black?
Cause he's black
cause thats just how they named it
ohh ok
Red brown uncommon for brown bear?
yes
Thanks mate
sorry in advance for the basic question, but is there a COTW manual that explains how to invite friends to a multiplayer game? Both players use Xbox (one is on Xbox PC), so not sure if our issue is with COTW or Xbox? Thank you in advance for any pointers!
If one is on Xbox, and the other is on Xbox game pass (PC), then multiplayer between the two is not possible
Ah, ok, bummer. Thank you very much Cash for the quick help! Greatly appreciated.
any advice for perks?
What is max score for brown bear? Isnt it 29?
Yes
Ok good that's what I thought
good red deer spots i should try on Cuatro COlinas?
When do european bison drink?
10-14
Ight, thanks
Along the southern side of the river to the west, the twin fork of the river, the lake to the east and west of Vista De Cantera(lookout point), and the lake to the east of Cresta Ribereña. Those are my biggest hot spots and hold most of my males.
I didn’t have all have my zones for whitetail on Layton and killed big bucks and does and level 1 trivial bucks respawn all though big bucks respawn in other zones. But I recently found all 60 zones and have just been ignoring the ones with small bucks and does in them. Should I wipe these zones and get new ones. Any feedback is appreciated.
honestly you can play it either way
if you want to only focus on a few zones you can just be sure to check the others every now and then to make sure your respawns didnt go to another herd.
personally for my rd gring i have been focusing on the northern lakes on te only and not worrying about the north eastern lakes as they only had small herds with no males in them
Ok thank you
Can somebody make a list of all the animals that have truracs?
does anybody know where whitetail spawn on layton lake
so i looked for bb drink zones on layton lake and i probably 20+ and they all were singles spawns
the alexander longbow
TruRACS List:
Whitetail Deer, Blacktail Deer, Roosevelt Elk, Caribou, Reindeer, Moose, Roe Deer, Fallow Deer, Iberian Mouflon, all Ibex, Water Buffalo, Red Deer, Bighorn Sheep, Mountain Goat, Pronghorn, RME, Mule Deer, Axis Deer, Feral Goat, Chamois, Sika Deer, Blackbuck, Lesser Kudu
So red are whitetails and blue are bbs... the dotted lines are maybe zones... I sometimes have some whitetail there sometimes nothing
from the picture of the animal it is difficult to tell... would you have also the information which plumage type it is?
yeah that is the usual case for black bears as they are most often wandering around alone (maybe if you are lucky there are two but this is pretty rare)
He said it was two colored
Bicolor?
possibly bicolor.. hence not rare
Ok thank you
Are thy done or are they adding more?
well there is not much left but eventually they will all be done
why does medved taiga take so much out of my computer
also it failed to syncronise
it feels ridiculous bc my computer can handle all other maps, but the synchronise stuff I have had problems with along time so idc about that
oh okay
i thought my computer was gonna have some problem later but now i know it wont so ty
Yeah there's nothing wrong your PC is handling it nicely
Do I have to find more whitetail zones to get more respawns?
No you gotta kill more animals
When is water buffalo drink time? As I noticed that it was changed
best spots for duck on yukon ?
The river
Any tips for begginers?
Kill everything don't be afraid to ask questions and read everything in the tutorials in the codex
And at least for the beginning don't deviate from doing the starter map missions at least a few of them you learn a lot in those first few missions on both Layton and Hirsch and medved
Harlequin ducks dont land ?
They do
for me they just fly around adn around for like 2 mins lol
Is it a single duck or big group?
what weapon do you get with buying revontuli coast
big group
Well that's interesting they was landing for me when I was Hunting them
Did you spook them away and see if they came back maybe they were stuck on a loop?
yeah many times
One landed but pretty far away
maybe somt with the spot im at
i was close to a outpost so imma try a bit away from it
I want away a bit from outpost and now its works fine
Ay well that's good to know I have one that's right next to the beginning Outpost so I might need to move it then
Yeah
Are melanistics rare, just killed my first one
yes
quite rare
Wasn’t sure cause I don’t play this game much, thanks for letting me know
there's this becite ibex that's 201-242, is that gold or diamond?
uhhhhhhh
BIG diamond
FR?
oh
Ok
yes, animals dont tend to give you a "ton" of cash, but you can make it up in sheer volume
what maps do you have btw?
I just bought the silver bundle so I have Medvev Taiga, Verhunga Savanna, and the 2 base game maps
alright, i recommend starting out on layton lakes then
And just hunt?
do some missions, just hunt
Ok
the area around your first outposts should have some whitetails and blacktails
If you wanna just make money with easy missions, do vurhonga's main mission
Only requires you to hunt 1 animal iirc
But uhh
Get ready to cry
It's sad
I've already finished the main story for Savanna and Taiga
But yeah
Both stories are very sad
But I got a question
So if you tax an animal but don't have a lodge, how do you access it?
you dont. at least not at the moment
you can access it when you get a lodge tho
But the only way to get a lodge is to buy one with real money?
Yeah
yes
I don't think that it would have been that high
Maybe it was a glitch
🤷♂️
I’ve been trying to find a diamond lynx and I’m not getting my respawns?
Do you have the harvest screen
It should not be that much for a mission animal
you are getting respawns.
just not in the same part of the map
So I just have to look at other lakes?
yes.
this is something you'll learn very quickly if you grind any predator species, particularly ones that are solitary
Where on revontulli are you looking?
I find most of my lynx up north
Yeah I’ve just been looking at all the northern lakes
I killed 2 mythicals at the same lake and still haven’t found the respawns
yeah that aint gonna cut it
it is the best region for lynx, yes
but it is far from the only region they inhabit
make sure you cover ALL your bases
and that "all" is no joke.
Yeah I have started to discover some towards the mid of the map
they can drink
get this
literally anywhere except the one duck island.
it's actually kinda hilarious. there's often questions here where people are saying their whitetail/red deer/black bears arent respawning
then we tell them to go check the rest of the map
30mins later, they come back saying they walked in on a deer convention
One thing is finding animals everywhere and another is finding them nowhere except that one particular place.
like if they all decided to spawn on the same place
either way, it emphasizes the importance of covering all your bases
I get the gist
Are Blackbuck a common troll?
When you make a server, will it show your username or steam name as the servers name?
anyone that can help me with some tips on birdhunting pls @ me here or dm me
You should hunt using decoys
why i cant complete Lost Son Eric mission?
im in the marked place in the map and it says ''Found something? Lets see where it leads''
but no follow the trail quest
Does anyone knows what to do i lost all my savings because i accidentally clicked select reserve
That shouldn’t affect your save. Your xp, cash, and weapon score carry over between reserves
i lost 50 percent of my money and xp
That’s more likely due to a loss of progress bug
I’m not sure there’s much we can do about that, sadly 😢
Seems to be a bug that a lot of us are dealing with, seems like it doesn't want pick up that you've reached the cabin.
The only thing we can do is wait until they've fixed it, but that'll probably be a long time from now
yeah that quest's broken as of Revontuli's release. The devs are aware of it.
can level 3 only 4weigh and 4 torphy capercaillie diamond? pls help?
Level 2 capercaillie should be able to make diamond
but i see level 3 and only 4torphy can it is diamond?
What do you mean by "4 trophy"
not 4-5 its only 4
Ah, yeah it can make diamond if its level 3
thanks for the helping
k thx
Is dark rare for hazel grouse?
no
K, thanks
is brown hybrid skin rare for Kanadian goose or how is the animal called?
no
Canada goose
And no
k
Is orange rare for water buffalo now?
yes
Niceee
And does anyone know their drink time? I haven't figured it out nor did I get a reply
I accidently shot my misson animal before getting a picture , does anyone know if it will respawn?
which mission animal
was a injured lynx
ty
sometimes when i walk by certain trees on revontuli, ill hear a ton of birds (what sounds like hazel grouses) chirping in them, but there'll be nothing in the tree. i could fire a round or 2 into the tree, nothing. i could stare continuously at the tree, id see nothing fly away.
how do i get at those birds
Where are the whitetail spots in layton, I need it for doc #23
the entire left river has whitetail drinking
Ok thanks
Hunting birds in Finland:
For Reventoulli Coast there are several bird categories.
Your typical upland fowl like Capercallie, Ptarmigans, and Grouse can be found in the northern two thirds of the map. (Except Willow Ptarmigan, which likes the climate in the southern one third of the map). I like to snipe these birds with the .22LR, but the Ptarmigans require to be killed in mid-air to pass the harvest check. You can hit birds in air with a rifle, but I think you're expected to use a shotgun with Birdshot ammo on these.
If you want to use the shotgun, and you play on console, I recommend upping your aim sensitivity to 5.
Now, your waterfowl, being Ducks and Geese, tend to be located in or near water. Ducks have specific lakes in the southern half of the map they like. Canada Goose is all over the map. Tundra Bean Geese like it in the north. Grey Geese like it in the south.
The game offers a complex and revamped system for attracting waterfowl with a combination of decoys and callers.
See my guide, and go to chapter two:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2445049273
Any feed zones or sleep zones that you know of?
There's a huge stone on a target in the shot for shot mission in Parque Fernando. How do one proceed?
known issue. will get fixed Soon™️
Ok, thanks!
Anyone got caribou drink zones on yukon
do female gemsbok have to be max weight esti to make diamond at lvl 4
Everything needs to be max weight esti to make diamond im pretty sure
No
Max weight estimate for females is guaranteed diamond btw
okay thank you
is the glitched Lost Son quest fixed?
no
After 76 kills of the GO black bear grind I can’t find any male bear… how can I solve it?
And pls @ me
Yeah but it was "only" 96B big...
could it have been some sort of fix early?
With 96B it could be something crucial but possibly minor fix however I don't think it was an the actual announced patch
how is the wild goose chase dlc called?
Check mule deer outpost
Wild goose chase
That was the fix
it says wild goose chase gear
Its the same thing
You get a layout, 2xDB 20g, decoys
oh aight thanks
I check all the possible spots, I can’t find anything
Show me your map and circle all the spots you checked
Ok
I send it in private?
You could post a screenshot here
Other people could chime in
What time did you start checking
What time are you setting it at?
From 16:00 to 18:00 @tidal linden
where are trophies saved? locally or in steam cloud or what?
<@&393042322499305473>
Both, if you have the cloud enabled.
You need a trophy lodge DLC to access the trophy manager.
i had legendaries of every species and legacy that were lost and i have been trying to restore them for like 2 years now
every time i try to contact support they dont help
A lot has changed in 2 years. I doubt trying to restore old files is going to garner the outcome you desire.
how do i get someone to actually try and help who knows what they are talking about
i have been told trophies are saved remotely on avalanche servers, not through steam
Ok then , good luck.
Well, if support can't help as you said, there's not much anyone here is going to be able to do.
why not? who can help then?
Support would be the answer but you said "they dont help". So, if they can't help, I'm not sure anyone can.
You can't.
Whoever told you things were saved on "avalanche servers" was making things up, because there are no servers for COTW.
All files are saved locally/on cloud, so if it's gone from both and you don't have a manual backup, it's gone.
i was told trophies saves are completely separate from everything else
As far as I know, they aren't.
That information is kept with the rest of the save file.
thats what they told me in support tickets
this has been an ongoing issue for a long time like i said so im just trying to find someone new who could at least explain what has happened. ive searched for fixes online myself and checked support forums for similar issues but never find anything
Because there are no fixes for loss-of-progression bugs
Sounds like Support already tried to help and came to the conclusion that there is no fix or workaround for your issue.
yes exactly, so i need someone who can fix it because they dont know how
.
If Support doesn't know how, there's a very high chance no one else will know how.
how many support members are here in discord? only gary?
I don’t think he’s gonna be able to do much in this case. A loss-of-progression issue is not possible to solve unless you have a backup saved elsewhere
its not progression, it is all of my trophies
Either way, not much he can do
i have saves from 4 years ago, but the trophies are not saved there
It's considered a loss-of-progress bug.
i need to know where they are saved
Nothing can be done about them.
i cant find this information
if it's gone, it's gone.
it's the biggest reason why it's a good idea to make manual backups, so you can avoid it happening again.
They are saved in the same place as the rest of your save game.
^^^
Yes
I mean they are just mods they don't work at EW studios
so all i need to do is restore that file from 4 years ago?
Yeah given how much has changed, it may not have the effect you want
yeah backups that old would break things more than fix them
too many updates since then
i doubt it
Oh no a LOT has changed in four years
I mean, you can try to do that, but it may not have the effect you want
who can i talk to here for support? is there a way to reach out to them?
email through support tickets hasnt helped
Because this isn't an issue that can be helped anymore.
no because its very slow and they never understand the issue
@upbeat grove I'm not promising anything but you can try this to convert your old save over to the new system. With any luck you will get your trophies back. 🙂

Idk if you should tho
Nah
Not sure he can help that much, if at all
Don’t recommend it

ig i had bad rng
I think you just had small dur
Can I do A Sample of Parque Fernando's Finest achievement in multiplayer or only in singleplayer?
Single
That's the diamond of every right?
As far as I know it's tied to the mission
what are reseted profiless?
or whatever
Only have enough cash to buy 7mm or 45-70 for lvl 4-9 .... which would you buy?
Any good spots for blacktail? I’m having a hard time finding em after the update
I’d say it’s a matter of personal preference and playstyle as always. Personally the .45-70 fits my playstyle a bit better since I rarely shoot over 150m, and I really like lever-action rifles. I do quite like the 7mm too though, but if I had to choose one, then it would probably be the .45-70.
7mm
45-70 sucks ass
Compared to really life
Also you need to spend more money to buy a whole new scope for it
Comparing poly tips, they have the same penetration but less expansion
They should really buff the 45-70
But they probably won't
For the same reason they aren't buffing the muzzle loader to class 9
They are afraid that its gonna be to op
But if you want a good 4-9 gun use the .454
I fast travelled on Layton and now I can’t see my inventory
Its free
Nothing appears why is this
Reboot the game
I have multiple times the same glitch happens
What is the realistic range on the 454
I make shots from 100-150m
But it has 100 pen or expansion
I saw that 👀
i have the perk on my dog to make it howl like a wolf how do you make it do it?
My friend bought the game on steam and I have it on epic games. I know we need avalanche apex connect accounts to play but he doesnt know how to link his. he created one on the website (it wouldnt let him make one in game) but he doesnt know how to link it to the game
Is there something on his screen that says login?
If not, here is the solution
Step 1, when you get to the menu of cotw go to settings
Step 2, go to avalanche apex accoubt
Step 3, disable hunt club beta
Step 4, DO NOT play the game for 24 hours
Step 5 when you boot up cotw it'll give you a prompt to login
(Preferred method from EW themselves)
thanks
would reinstalling work
Idk
Also when I did I played after 23 hours and it didn't work so tell him you need to wait 24 hours
What are the other options?
Reboot the game and send me a screen shot of the first thing it tells you to do
ok
it let him log in now
thank you so much
Your welcome
Does the bears still bug? Like the tp’s and bad shots?
inven won't let me access it - greyed out, inaccessible, and i can't do anything with it
i've restarted the game, verified files, etc.
Is brown rare for black bears?
Yes.
Thanks
How far do I need to place my tent as to now scare of the animals for the zones I'm doing a moose grind on Reventuli
200m+
anyone have a clue where the whitetail deer drink zones are located on mississippi acres
the entire map
is windage or zeroing better to take?
Zeroing
thanks
Zeroing every day of the week
Windage may be ahead of you're a 100% bow hunter
But just maybe
i’m dev erroring in multiplayer but not singleplayer
How hard is the progression in this game?
not hard
Long?
Its time-consuming yes but its not that difficult to progress
Thanks
I mean kill 30 animals and you have your first decent rifle
Also go to lakes to find animals drinking
hello what's the drink time of Chamois on Te Awaroa ? On the spreadsheet it's 5-8 but i can't find one....
They absorb water through their skin
So they don't drink
genius move right here
how does one get more skill points??
at max level?
cus for the stalker i have 6 locked skills and idk if i can get more points
any good spots to level up shotgun rank early on?
Pheasants on rancho, dumbest birds in the game
rancho?
rancho del arroyo
ah
what would attract them, I cant seem to find a call or anything
never mind I just ain't got that dlc
they don't have a caller anyways
hows that work then
run and find them
Is 24 max score for black bears?
yes
You find them and you can't shoot them on the ground or you get less money and score
Of course you could play a ground blinds on a corn field in hirschfelden (free) and use the goose caller to attract Canada goose
that's what I've been doing but with decoys instead and it seems really slow
Are you on hirsch?
for the geese yes, for the last little while tho I've been shooting bison for a little extra $
i keep on crashing every single time when i start cotw
Do respawns always respawn at the same zone or sometimes do they move around
Hi all, new to the game but having an issue. No matter what I seem to try I can't get full screen I still have the task bar on my screen, is this normal or does anyone have a fix for this please?
Anybody know need zones for Iberian wolves?
is A-a-aron spreadsheet up to date with needzone times?
From what I know random spread out between all the zones that need animals
Do I have to claim an animal for it to respawn
No
do duck blinds and regular blinds "take away" the same amount of hunting pressure as tripods?
okay
Fellow user of the companion app
Yes yes been using it for over a yr now
Good Euro Bison spots?
I’ve had some good experiences in Bohndorf, just west/northwest of the Bohndorf Outpost in their feed time which is 4-7 and 7-10. If you want to try their drink-zones, then go to any lake and/or river in the left part of the map at 10-14, then you should probably find a bunch, but I don’t know any lakes/rivers specifically since I haven’t hunted them in their drink-zones.
When does red deer drink?
6-10 on all maps if I remember correctly
are rarer spawns tied to your level or just random
ok
Animal level or fur type?
both I reckon
Fur type is fully random
Animal level is not tied to level but can be influenced by herd management
Not confirmed by devs, but if you have a lot of lower level animals on the map the game will more often give diamond potential animals
Because the game tries to compensate the average
Does anybody know any good pheasant hotspots
All are random
Basically the entire middle part of the map if it's still the same as it used to be
Like a 1-2 km circle around the entire starting Outpost
What do you use for like big bears and moose? is the 300 or the 7mm the best at long range like 200m?
also, do you ever use backpacks?
Don't use backpacks, the increased noise turns you into a mini-ATV, if you want more carry capacity go for the pack mule skill
As for big game rifles, the .300 is def better than the 7mm for bears and moose, if you want to use a weapon like the 7mm go for the .338
Even then having 4 shots vs 1 with the 7mm/.338 is just massive for follow-up shots
even better is bringing 2 .300's 😂
haha ok thanks
Looking for really good te awora spots for red deer dm me maps pls. And whats the best thing to do or hunt for money i have every pack the the newer map
300 and 338 is a lot better then the 7mm but the 7mm is a all right option if you don't have the other two
And I only use the small fanny pack thing when hunting I use the great big ones for moving equipment on the backpack question
Does anybody know what Max for female GoldenEye is?
They can score a bit above 1k
Alrighty
I didn't know if it was exactly 1000 or what it was
I just know the one I posted in the gallery is the biggest yet for me
ahem
that's the biggest one I've seen
and I think I deleted it from trophy manager 💀
Wow
300
300 absolutely smokes bears
Anyone got any tips for Mississippi? Just got it and idk where to start
Adventure around

Does a dog's bond affect how good it tracks?
it affects how quickly it recovers it’s energy, more bond = faster energy recovery
If i find an outpost on a multiplayer map does it get saved to mine?

decoys n stuff dont save th
Thanks 👍🏻
Yes. Outpost unlocks are player-specific, not map specific
just run around early morning and you’re bound to find something

Can Red deer score over then 265?
yes
was that in the last update?
They could always score above 265
Well I'm lucky cuz I have a red deer that scores 269.something
Anyone know when blackbuck drink time is?
338 is better - long distance (250 meters) than the 300. -- Provided you have the wind coming from the back. The 338 is more side wind sensible than the 300. That is my experience - at least. Do not ask me why -- a matter of meters per second perhaps. Wonder if it is accounted for in the game mechanics? However, very interesting. BR
Wind doesn't affect bullets, does it?
I know it sure dose 22 bullets
But not .338?
I honestly don't know if I had to guess it affects all over them some way former fashion just getting the conditions that actually might affect them is rare probably
For me and the 22 I was shooting off the top of the mountain at ducks down in the river that was about 500 yards away
It does, -- and If you check it out it is very significant. You are dialing wth not only a game, but also a hunting simulator--... That is what it is.
Hi, I have a problem: Whenever I start Call of the Wild via Epic games, a black screen comes up immediately. You neither interact nor anything else
Could you send a clip on how it affects
Cause I wanna know how I should account for it
when i try to join a invite it just shows a date and not a join button how do i fix this problem?
I’ve never experienced the wind affecting a bullet, if it does, then it is a very negligible amount. In my experience even with the air-rifle pellets I do not have to account for the wind at all, even at a decent distance and crosswind.
awnser pls????
it does, but the effect is minimum
so there's no point in compensating for it
who toldd you wind affects bullets in cotw? cuz it doesnt there is only having to lead shots on animals that are moving (which the amount you have to is unrealistic in cotw given the speed and trajectory of bullets IRL
If i kill a deer in a need zone that has 4 deer, how long will it take for the need zone to get back to 4?
I can confirm that wind affects bullets (and very >> arrows).
The most noticeable I have come across are the .22LR, but it has an effect on others as well. The in-air ballistics of this game are very realistic so you generally won't notice the effect with larger calibers such as the .338
In the rifle tree there is a skill to measure wind speed.

Question:
Does anyone know how hunting pressure affects animal behaviour other than deleting need zones? Does it prevent travelling animals from pathing through the pink hunting pressure?
Also; what other ways than using a bow can reduce generation of hunting pressure? (do blinds / stands / tripods have the same effect and do they stack?)
You will find a lot more information covering your questions in the Steam COTW community.
What about the 7mm
what's the best shotgun for Rev?
Pick your favorite, tho the higher capacity shotguns will be better
12ga pump 
Ey @distant juniper question: what’s the smallest plaque a capercallie can go on?

Some birds can go on small

Some on medium
small+
Lol
where are the small plaques in saseka
fits on xs
fits on small plaque
@hidden basin there
Alrighty. Thank u
if you want me to be mad at you again for ruining my bear runs ping me again 😉
Lol
Is there a way to like make all of your blinds/stands go into your storage at once? I have most of mine lost in different maps and I'd really prefer to not have to dig for them all if possible
Sadly no
Are the bobcats bug?
Elaborate
I shot them and the bullets go through the bobcat and not hit it
Try shooting then a second time and see if that does anything
also I love it when people ask if something is bugged but don’t specify what about that thing could be bugged.
Are you talking about the question I had about hunting pressure? 🤔
The effect of wind for 7mm is usually not noticeable because max render distance is a little bit over 320 meters.
If we had targets at 500 to 600 meters then I'd begin to worry about it.
I will point out that the 7mm has a bullet trajectory that is slightly different (in the up/down direction) from the rest. (the .243 .223 and .270 are very similar to eachother).
I have not tested the .45 air-rifle or the .22H (I dont have the DLC) but those are more likely to have a pronounced wind drift.
I have hunted a lot with the Vasquez Cyclone .45 Air Rifle, and I have never experienced the wind affecting the pellet
Anyone know the max weight a female mountain lion can be. Friend had just show a level 5 female with weight 141 lbs(64kg) if anyone has any thoughts would like to hear.
Hello There,Can I have some tips for begginers?anything would help,I also use The stadavious 270 and farming for The Hyperion scope
I have a tip if you are trying to figure out the range a animal is at you can spot it an then check your map so get the distance not sure if you knew this already
And a other question,What does zeroing does?
will help you make the shot more center on the scope so say a animal is at like say 175m you want to use the 150m an just aim slightly higher but if its was like 290 then you want to use the 300m
Only do slight adjustments an not big once i thought the dots where like 50m each that is not the case
Makes it easier to take a shot at a long range
Like at 300m if you set it to 300m you don't need to aim a little bit up its spot on
Oh thank you!
Ok will do my friend
:)
You need to get a smaller black bear
how do you hold your breth?
shift
if you have the yukon dlc, the .300 is amazing
how much is the bullets?
~880 each
gun name?
.300 Canning Magnum Marches/Frontier
30-06 is good ammo for bears i tend to use the Rangemaster for bison an or a handgun 454 i believe but thats because i like the challenge of getting close to them with said handgun
Can anyone help me with te awaroa cause I’ve been trying to find a guide with drink zones and all that but nothing I’ve seen has been up to date
in the map there are some outpost green but cant redeem it because its like ive alredy claimed that but cant fast travel
(sorry for cross posting)
Nearly every lake has red deer drink zone, well at the top left/top right and middle ish
Around 6:30-10:30
Okay and do you know when feral goat and fallow deer drink
And typically where they are?
I’ll have a look give me a second
I know there is heaps of goats top left at bay of rest where that one mission was with the movie props
Fellow is usually bottom of the map
Fellow 10:30-13:00 ish some spots 13:30
Feral goat 6:00-9:30
Or 9:00-12:00 all depending on where you find them, they’re all over the place
If you want easy hunting so to any lake top half of the map between 6-10 ish and there will be heaps of red deer
Hey uhhh so the my friends have been telling me I have a level 4 female albino lion on my map but I can’t see it and it can’t die need help to unglitch it
If you can’t see it then how do you know It’s even there 🤔
My friends are swearing on god that they see it
That doesn't mean they're not messing with you.
I know but one was a new player and swore on god and everything and he does not prank me or anyone I know
Sounds sus to me
Like how do I make it to where I can kill it?
?
If you can't see it, it likely doesn't actually exist.
Game doesn't work like that.
Is there anyway to fix the track outlines not showing? I've restarted my game multiple times and still nothing
you can still see them on the ground and interact with it but theres no coloured highlight
Try setting time to lion drink time
Turn on flashlight and look
At it
When it's night you need your flashlight
I hav
whats the keybind?
thank you
L
i was getting worried for a second
What time are you setting it to?
13:00
I just can't see it it's like it's not there but my friends are telling me that there is one
You can't find it or can't see it?
But when they try to kill it it soaks all their bullets
I can't see it but my friends can find it and see it
You sure they didn't kill it and let it despawn?
I am sure
Tell them to take a screenshot next time
Ok
Do birds have a feeding spot? Im gonna assume no since i havent seen a single spot for geese in Hirschfelden or mallard in layton
yes they do
Ohhh ok then. Thats nice to know i will look online for some places. Just unlucky not finding any
What’s the harvest check on a springbok
wdym?
unfortunately guides from that user arent allowed here. but here's something for ya
Ty
Pro XCK has some hotspot maps on his youtube channel if you wanna check that out
Still confused many time I found raccoon dog middle lake.
Oh sry that I asked here but Ty
Not allowed to discuss exploits
Anyone know if way of the hunter is on Xbox one? And if there’s going to be trail cameras and or tree stands etc.
It’s not even out yet
Also, ask in their server
Not here
Classic player here, just asking if COTW has the same money system as classic? or is it less micro transactions?
main reason i want COTW it because of the New zealand map and the money system
not even comparable
you get money waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay faster
but lots of equipment is locked behind dlcs
is it easier to progress in COTW?
yeah absolutely
oh awesome, tbh i wouldnt mind buying a few DLCs
as long as it doesnt ruin my game experience and wallet lol
I think all of the dlcs together cost 110-ish dollars
ngl buying all the maps and at least 2 of the weapon packs is all you need for a good time
and tents but thats it
having all the map DLCs is nice so that way you have control of everything and don't have to deal with MP if you don't want MP
does having a tent placed by a stand/blind disturb the animals when they come?
no, only placing the tent scares animals
do you have to buy dlc in order to be able to get tents, tree stands, etc?
yes
yeah
yeah
1 more thing, are backpacks worth it
$170
nah
damn
is the high tech hunting pack worth it? it looks pretty flash
imo it's not worth it
I just forgot to taxerdermize the gold feral goat i just shot
😭
I accepted out of habit
It has its place in the game, but it's in the bottom of my favorite dlcs
what are your top 5?
nah
treestands make it so you can hunt the same spot more than 3 times without losing need zones
atv is only useful for unlocking outposts
unless you're constantly resetting your game it's not worth it
smoking barrels is pretty good
just looking at the dlcs and i like the Nz map, the modern rifle pack, the tents and the weapon packs
dunno if those are good choices
yeah the MRP is really good
map is up to you, but I think every map is worth it
and a lodge
lol
so
#1 tents, #2 lodge, #3 smoking barrels, #4 weapon pack 2, #5 MRP
that's my personal opinion
there's no way you put lodge above treestands/tripods
easy.
don’t commit mass murder at every zone.
sure ground blinds work well but having the high ground
is really helpful when it comes to longshots and spottiong
I barely use tripods or ts
