Which do you prefer 7mm or .308
7mm
Ok
Better every way
How does it take longer?
slightly less powerful
How far to the right does the Civil War rifle shoot?
5 feet
????
an inch, if that
it will only really make a difference at longer distances
How much cash does it cost to taxidermize a great one
7.5k if I'm right?
Or 10k
Vurhonga or Te awaroa
What should i grind on vurgonga?
Lions
And red deer on TA right?
Geese are also pretts steady cash flow
they arent bonkers, but it's solid and if you're fast you can get 3 or so before they fly off
and in the feed zones on hirsch, they come frequently
Same as it would to tax any animal of that species last I recall
Oh ok
I also got pretty good cash in Yukon killing plains bison i could kill like 3 of them in a herd they run so slow
And they're dumb, they come back after a little bit
Especially if you hunt with a bow and arrow
It's less spooky to them, so they run off, but come back - especially since the hunting pressure isnt as bad
(I mean they all are, the AI is - I think - the same level of spook across the board)
Both have about the same amount
On Yukon they arenāt as widespread though, whereas on Medved theyāre across the entire map
7mm or .300 + a 4-8 gun is pretty good
Make sure you take a class 1 and class 2 gun though, never know if you might come across a diamond goose or fox
Uhh
Either of the 7mm with iron sights is pretty good for wolf defense already
A handgun isnāt necessary
But if you can fit a handgun in your loadout without replacing any of the other weapons then do it if you want to
Oh which handgun should i use
454
10mm, .454, .45 and .44 are all good for self defense
I always bring the 454 with me when in wolf lands
its just.. simple. 5 shots, and if placed well, 5 wolves down
Alr
I prefer the 10mm simply for the fact that it has so many more rounds than the .454 with a higher fire rate you donāt have to be super precise and can get follow up shots quickly if needed
(I was poor at the time and havent bought others, and the 454 was free haha)
I cant afford a .300 š
what level are you?
.243 and a class 1 firearm
it'll be a while yet .... .300 is still nice but now with the .338 dlc not necessary .... before power pack you pretty much had to have the .300
.22lr Virant or .22lr AR will do fine. Shotguns are better for birds but lack range so itās up to you what you wanna bring
Ok
Or you can kill 2 birds with one stone and bring the .22H to be able to take harlequin duck, Canada goose and red fox with one weapon
Only downside is the fact itās a bolt action instead of semi auto like the other two
Imma have to hunt the wolves in yukon in the dark š
What should i bring for that
I hunt them with a .243 .....
I mean you could easily use your deer rifle
454
12ga slugs or buck
16ga slugs
10ga buck
Any bow but cross
Basically any rifle
My first diamond was took with that half way
You will also need the night vison binocs .... NV scope isn't necessary
I also carry the 10mm on Yukon in case I get jumped by a pack
Ok
How do i get alot of kills for obe species
Hello,what dlc shoud i buy first,the crossbow or the air riffle?
like overall first weapon dlc?
Yes
What do you really like to hunt?
I like hunting with a bow but i enjoy to hunt birds and turkeys
i suggest the advanced rifle pack, u get a .22
for birds
and one of the best rifles
.308
I know but i want to be a bit on stealth mode with a bow or even a silent gun
Whats a really good weapon load out that i can just stick to instead of switching my load out to every map i go to
.22
.243
7mm
bow
All this plus a shotgun for birbs
i hunt with all the 3 bows in the game and whitch between them all the time
Is a .22 the .22LR
there are two .22s
Weapon pack 1 is fun if you like bows because you get the recurve and crossbow
Virant i think
And the ranger .243?
fair
yeah the starter rifle
Which .243 should i use
Yes the 22s are 22lr or 22h
I thought there was 3 .22s
yep
fits all classes
now go enjoy huntin
And a 22 pistol
22LR, 22AR and 22 hornet
2 different bullets 4 guns
I just dropped a bomb in my toilet
10/22 mark 3 and AR is 22lr and the 22h is 22h
How do i place down alot of tents and tripods
first things first: buy a bunch of them
How much are they
16k per tripod/tent
grind
Lions, red deer, fallow deer and upland birds
Iāve already told you
Shoot what you see
I have been
Do it more
Upgrade guns
Get bigger game. Aim for heart
I have been hunting red deer bruh
Do it more
And i still cant get any money
Im only at 29k
Making sure you get the quick kill and consecutive harvests bonuses also lends you an extra bit of cash per kill
Spend that 29k to upgrade for a bigger gun or more ammo
Keep shooting
No game should be easy
Bigger guns ā more money. It lets you hunt bigger game sure, but if you can get $1500+ per coyote with the .243 and the free soft points then its completely not necessary
For making money you should be prioritizing making as much money per round as possible
For example:
Cape buffalo are a big game species. They give ~$1200 per kill, which is really good right? However, you need to use ammunition which can cost more than $950 per ten rounds.
Whereas rock or willow ptarmigan give about $1000-1100 per kill, but the ammo you need to hunt them (birdshot) is less than $200 per ten rounds, effectively giving you a better payout than hunting Cape buffalo
Yes
At the end of the day all you really need to be doing is making more money per shot than it costs to fire that round, which is unironically impossible unless youāre shooting level 1 rabbits with the .470
At the end of the day, itās a game and you should not worry too much about money. .243 with soft-point
soft point bullets are like nerf darts
Look at the name
āSoft-pointā
But you can kill more capes in a given amount of time
No not really
Finding willow ptarmigan is a little harder but you can kill far more of them within a shorter amount of time
This guy isnāt experienced yet though
So capes would be a bit easier imo
As soon as you learn how to hit a moving target (not that hard for people who donāt have a skill issue like you) then itās piss easy
do animals use their drink zone beside a tent?
Wait till he attempts to shoot a springbok in motion
God I wanna try dropping a springbok as theyāre pronking
Meee toooo
I had my shot at a Lvl 9 - Legendary Red Deer earlier today, I shot at it from around 280m over a river, it would have gone by the time I got round there! I hit it, but hit no organs and it went on to tracking prey. I lost the tracks for it when the crossed with some other Red Deer tracks and I got confused. Will it still be on the reserve when I reload the game again or will it despawn and I have to wait for a new one to spawn? I don't know how all the spawning of the animals work in the game!!
If it died itās gone. If it didnāt die itāll still be there
It wonāt die if it was shot with an ethical weapon and no organs hit
Reset the time and find him again
Heāll be on 0-25% health
Make sure you aim right this time
It didn't die as it went onto tracking prey so it should still be there, it's just a case of finding it then., thanks
I thought I had! It was around 280m which I don't normally do for any animal and would definitely wouldn't have done for for a legendary, but I didn't think I had time to get round to get a closer shot as I was the other side of a river!
Stomach, intestines and vertebrae arenāt vital organs and will still kill
Where can I find musk deer on medved?
Southern half of the map
Any tips for hunting Pheasants? I suck at hitting them while theyre flying
shoot them when they aren't flying
lol
But then you dont get a score
you do
It doesnt let me pass the harvest check if I shoot them grounded. I have the correct ammo and stuff
Next time I see one I'll try just shooting it on the ground. Maybe the first few times were bugs
honestly, just grab a shotgun, load bird dust and run across the grassland like a madman, missing with that stuff should be nearly impossible even with max pulse š
I hate using shotguns in video games, I've been using the Kullman rifle lol
well, then it's training, training and umm even more training until you managed to get it right
fair enough
might be easier to train with hares first since they only run on the ground, if you got those down reliably you could try geese/turkeys since they're easier to hit and after that swap to pheasants, not much else i could think of that would help
Nah raccoon or boars. Hares are tricky
I like Mississippi for shotgun since boars and raccoons run towards the player
hares being tricky is the entire point of the exercise, especially since birds tend to change directions in strange patterns as well
So, when you've shot an animal but you're being attacked by another animal that kills you and you respawn back into your nearest base, have you then lost the animal you've shot? I was hunting a bear and after my resurrection I went back to retrieve it,,, but the tracks stopped and the blood trails kept saying 75%-100%. What happened?
Oh, and there was hunting pressure.
No, unless you exit the reserve or the game the body will still be there
If there is hunting pressure where there wasnāt before that means the animal did die
But the trail kept going on and on and it stopped. It ended in the water. I couldn't spot any other tracks in the vicinity.
Hunting pressure is a definite sign that it died. Are you sure it wasnāt from another animal you killed before in that area?
Very certain. It was following a bear track. There was only one bear that I shot there.
Do you happen to have the dog DLC?
I have. But I had already given up on the bear before thinking about it. I had quit the session by then.
Ah, okay. So the body is no longer there and the animal has respawned
But the percentage also never changed.
Itās possible that there was a large gap between blood splatters and you could not locate the rest
And I had tracked it for a long distance already.
For situations like this I suggest using your dog to track the blood
It ended in the water. But okay. I think it's just a mystery to you as it is to me. Still thanks, though.
If the tracks ended at the water that can sometimes make the animal not leave anything behind until they reach dry land again or they got completely turned around
I would not think it died there as the body would have been washed back onto land being that close to it
Yeah, but the percentage not changing is suspicious.
If you donāt hit a vital it can take a good while for them to die
It was a vital.
It was a perfect broadside hit with the right rifle and ammo. Right into the lungs.
from what i've experienced so far, i'd just write it off as a bugged case and move on hoping it won't happen again
Yeah, I am.
Got a question how do we get more things for are man to ware I for example I got the gilly suite but not the man with the cow boy hat
There's a clothing store in game
@warm marten yes
How do you get the forth ghillie suit?
I have the winter, dry grass, and woodland one but how do I get the last one
I'm not sure but I think it may be a mission unlock thing
Oh okay
I'm just asking if anyone knows for sure because some of them look really nice
Oh the suits?
Afaik the only ways to get clothes are the ghillie suits from an apex connect account and the other outfits from the in game store
Wonder if the last ghillie suit is a content creator one then. Like only they get that one
Well there's all sort of diffent clothes to have I'd like to know how to get them all
I got the ghillies I thing a green one and white
I have almost all clothes
So do u have the cowboy hat one
Just need the gaucho and Arctic sets
And the one with the orange
No
Yes
Someone will know lol
Yeah
Do you have a picture of it or know exactly what it's called? Not entirely sure what you're talking about
@tribal ledge how do you get the last ghillie suit? I have the green, dry grass, and winter one but I don't have the last one. How do I get the last one.
The only one I can think that might be what you're talking about this the Vurhonga outfit. Do you own that map?
Yes
But no outfit
There's also a new England one
And what looks like a french outfit for the Spanish map
So nothing shows up in the store?
Nope
What's that one?
I'm not sure 100% I'm just interested to know
Well I'm not sure what you mean by cowboy hat so I can't do much
Do you own every map?
Is this the outfit you're talking about?
Also the dlc store don't say it comes with a suit to be fair that's y I think it's a unlock thing
Yes
@warm marten I'll have a proper look in to it tonite make sure I have not missed anything
I will post my findings
Ok
No idea fam, I never got into the clothing aspect of it beyond the free bushwookie suit they offered
Hi <3 someone sent me this map a while ago and i've been having a blast. (ty!) Is there any place i could find these maps? I'd like to check out Fallowdeer on te awaroa and red deer on quatro
Ima send u a invite in dms
Alrighty :)
Anyone know how to get rid of this drink zone that's stuck on my screen? š
That's a nice glitch there
Are wolves still bugged in MP?
if you mean by bugged that they keep getting stuck all the time, then yea, still happening but to some extent in SP ays well, not just in MP
Had it happen to me recently in SP
@left steeple it's odd some times Thay are some times there not in sort id say there not working the way there ment to
So im not sure where to go or who to ask but I have a Mission problem. I am on Mississippi Acers and the mission is "Short Circuited" I am unable to interact with anything pertaining to the mission inside the shack hence i am unable to progress. Can anyone help me with this or get me in contact with someone who can thanks.
As far as i remember you have to interact with a radio in the trees
But i remember wrong.. just enter cotw missions mississippi in google and you find all you need
What to do isn't the problem its i cant do anything, its bugged. I'm at the part where i need to look inside the house for clues but i cant interact with anything in there.
send screenshot of the mission
I had same problems in some missions. What helped me was watching other ppl on youtube doing the Mission. Some of the objects you need to interact are hard to find
there should be a letter or a thing of flowers in there i think
yeah i cant interact with it
hmmmmm
I jumped around in there trying for different angles and everything you name it i tryed
nope tried it
seems to be but cant interact with them either
anything in the immediate vicinity? like a mailbox?
been a while since i did this mission
Ive checked every inch been here for abount an hour trouble shooting and running around clicking on everything
does exiting to menu and going back in do anything?
nope ive uninstalled and reinstalled, restarted my computed, reinstalled the DLC, fast travelled, changed reserves and came back you name it
in that case, you might wanna #šļø“support
yeah seems that way i guess
I just watched a Video for that Mission, he has to turn the flowers to reveal something writen on it
On the small sign that is on the flowers
You can acces the flowers in your Kodex again
YOOOO that worked, but i tried that before and it didnt work. The first 3 times I tried it just now didnt but it did on the 4th that so weird. Thanks this has been bothering me for a good minute.
Glad i could help
well then
Is anyone else having problems with their inventory? Everytime I load in I have to add my weapons from locker
Save your loadout
regarding the loadout i really just wish it would save the selection wheel bindings as well, really takes up quite some time if you swap frequently
or is there a way around it ingame already and i was just missing it?
It already does lol
But it only works if you have the same guns in a different loadout
so it doesn't do what i'm talking about >_<
How do you save your load out??
no, because it won't save the wheel to the loadout, it just keeps the exact same wheel no matter what loadout you choose
Square on PS, X on Xbox and I dont know on PC
in your storage at the bottom it should state what key you gotta press
I think itās S
Any tips for not getting burnt out while grinding
Thx will try to , cause this lion grind is making me go insane
if you are feeling the frustration, def take a breather from the game
and only you will know how long the break needs to be
May LCs soul be well rested
How long he been gone?
What happened to him
Who was he
A warlord amongst Red Deer
also the first beeno GO Whitetail iirc
like a legit one, not a 'whoops, coding got mushed now the fur is different' one
I believe he killed in the 30k region of red deer
Ah
How do i level up fast?
shoot everything you see
other option is to shoot birds in revontuli
they are everywhere
Ok
What gun should i use to shoot birds
Any shotgun with birdshot
Just make sure for ptarmigan, pheasants and quail you shoot them in the air and not on the ground
Why not on ground?
you get a "none" trophy if you shoot them on the ground
You get a grounded medal instead of the medal corresponds to the animalās trophy score. Itās a requirement to shoot them in the air
Ok
what time do mountain goats drink at?
They don't drink
How do i place whatever trophy i want wherever i want in layton lake trophy cabin
Is that for every lodge?
Just for the Layton Lakes lodge
Ok
its the same for all lodges
what you mean
You can place trophies anywhere you want in Saseka and Spring Creek, but in Layton Lakes you can only put trophies at their speciesā designated plaque/platform
you have to place stuff on plaques and platforms in all lodges
Thatās not what Iām saying
you cant just place one in the middle of the floor
In Layton Lakes each species has their own designated plaque
tf
Like you canāt put a whitetail on the plaque designated for fallow deer
oh i didn't know that
Yeah, everybody was in an outrage about it when it first got revealed
i mean you cant really complain it is free
plus they could have just not given people anything
People found a way to complain anyway
welp you will always get some
Itās the COTW community what more do you expect lmao
@warm marten you was rite the outfits are in the game store at 12k each or something thank you for helping
That's it, I'm writing in to complain about you /s
Is hirchfelden the best map to hunt red deer?
Whitetail, Red Deer, Black Bear, Moose
Actually it is the worstā¦
this is a firm opinion among the crowds - but it's such a rewarding map when you conquer it
if u get too close ig it does
There is a small radius that it can spook them - but I have noticed when I'm out and about with the dog, it'll start whining and moving slower, and a status indicator pops up 'critically positioned' or some such
When it's sitting down, I tend to park it and then creep closer - if you get 51 meters from it, it'll start to follow you
thank you
Does anyone have any racoon dog hotspots on revontouli, I've never hunted them before and I don't know where to even start
Like.. the Southern Third according to this map
Okay thank you š
Of course! Best of luck!
Ty ty
Is it still possible to get common GO Moose?
I do not think so?
no (unfortunately)
How do i hold breath on xbox
is the game crashing immediately for anyone else?
Right stick down
I figured it out and it was left stick?
Ah my bad I havenāt played in a few days lol š
I'm new and I was wondering what dlc I should buy, I'm thinking of getting silver ridge, the atv, and a weapon pack but im not sure which one to get
Well, before you buy the map - you can try out the ones you are most interested in, via Multiplayer!
I tried to do that before but the connection is really bad - I've already bought the New Zealand map so I'm not sure if I should get silver ridge but I heard it was really good
SRP is a pretty loved map
for pure number of animals and species available, Revontuli is a solid choice
I think it has 19 species available?
yeah okay, I like hunting deer and bigger game so silver ridge might be good
I'm thinking of getting the AR pack and that atv a long with it
The AR pack is a pretty good one.
is the atv useful a part from the fact of unlocing tyhe map?
yeah I heard it was the best all round if I was to only buy one
Morning all, any tips for sneaking up on Black Bears? Iām trying to take two photos for the mission but none of the ones Iāve taken from a distance have counted - nor pictures of ones Iāve shot. Iāve tried sneaking into their rest zones trying to find one asleep but find itās a lot easier for them to hear me coming than it is for me to find them lying down in the undergrowth
So what I have seen people say works is.to put a tent down within a safe distance of the zone, like 100 meters or so, change the time to right before they get to the zone
and then either: creep on them til you're within 75m of the bear
or!
run like a nutter with your camera out, full speed at the bear, taking photos the entire time
but the consensus is: you need to be within 75 meters for it to register for the quest
Hey so do dlc's get transferred from Epic games to Steam?
im trying to create a apex account in order to host a game for my friends but whenever i try to crate one it says i already have one account linked to my steam then i proceed to reset my password for my apex ( i have generation zero connected to it i belive) but then it says i don't have any accounts linked to this email the exact email it told i had no account on then i proceed to login with my steam and says the same theres no account https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/941054557327347832/1102220435795497010/image.png
so its pretty much telling me i have an account when create a account but not when i log in
Is hirchfelden good for hunting red deer?
Every map is good, but if you want easy map, hirsch is not the choice.
- TA is the easiest
- Cuatro
- Parque
- Hirsch
Ok
my red deer won't return to their zones? waited out full time 6 to 10 twice now... had groups of 20 + did i place my tripods too close?
Iād say Hirsch is better than Parque. At least youāre not dealing with pumas everywhere
pew-ma
What would be the best way to start and get xp/money/rifle-score?
Kill everything
well i don't really find a lot of Animals anything to look out for?
Hunt water and if you hear warning calls donāt run
For manual saves, is it the COTW save or TheHunter one, or both?
COTW
Ok, thank you
thank you any weapons i should pick up or any specific map for that? i just got myself some dlc's
Which DLCs did you get?
should i get the yukon valley dlc just for the 300 canning magnum??
Yukon Valley/Silver peaks for maps
Modern weapon pack
Weapon pack 1
High tech equipment and the tent one
Yukon gets you the .300 which is an excellent big game rifle
Thats why i bought it tbh
I just really started playing yesterday so i don't know a lot about this game
Thereās plenty of people that will help when you have questions š
I bet this game has a great community!
how can i save my game on e.g. a usb flash drive?
How many Moose zones are on rev
this is a major issue anyone help me?
Can every animal in the game be diamond?
yes
but
only a handful of animals can make diamond on both genders. for most species, it's males only, tho for some it's females only
Ok
i know of exactly three where both males and females can make diamond: gemsbok, chamois, and gray fox
read the message one more time
Anything not listed above maxes at 5 - MEDIUM
Is the bloodhound worth buying? or should i rather get the car?
How far into medved taiga quest line do you have to be to get the albino diamond bear
if thats ur main focus then dont do it
u gotta do all the missions just for fun
not only for the trophy
Final main
the car is always the better choice. easy to unlock a new map or just traverse
what time does blacktail deer drink at
16-20
thanks
So on the dlc gun packs what is a good rifle for lion hunting?
The power packās .338 Tsurugi is really good for lion hunting
Which scope is good?
It really comes down to personal preference between the Argus and Hyperion. I like the Hyperion more because my field of view when ADSing is higher compared to the Argus, but the Argus has far higher magnification which makes those 300+ meter shots easier
Yea gonna try the hyperion lol
well.. i just got both but thank you for your answer!
what should i level up first?
The bottom one
Thank you
is it a bug, that you can spot the animals but you don't get the outline around it, and don't get any tracks or blood in single player?
is it night?
no it not night, i know you need a flashlight at night š
okay well then maybe its a bug :D
gonna se if it's the same in multiplayer
a friend of mine had that in multiplayer he restarted his game and that worked
yeah it's same in multiplayer to and i have restarted the game, gonna try validating the files in steam
Try pressing c
omg! was it only that! thank you
All good its a new feature and it has confused tons of people haha
Anyone knows the answer to this?
how far are you from the zones?
120m and 140m from the tripods to zone, tent is 250m+ from the zones
correction tent is 170m and 190m from the zones
Thatāll probably do it
how does my friend join my multiplayer game(its set to friends only and I have him added)
Yeah bring them to like 200 minimum - probably better luck at 250
Are you on pc/steam?
he can also right click your name in friends list and click join game
then he doesnt need to wait for an invite, as soon as the server is open
thanks
My game keeps crashing and i cant load on 2 trophy Lodge
alrighty imma try that :) thanks
Reindeer and brown bear drink everywhere on medved right?
Bear, yes. Reindeer, top half only
definitely worked! moved the tent, not the tripods and the massive herds are slowly coming back <3 thanks!
Ah perfect! Grats
what are white tail spots for layton
I find them on the left side of the map
kk ty
What is a Red Deer GO Initial Spawn
initial spawns = the animals that are generated when you load into the map for the very first time
Ok thx
Or for the first time since a pop reset
To what other reserve does New England Mountains compare the most ? Does is have much open space ?
If you shoot alot of deer that cause alot of pressure and it deletes there spot will it come back eventually
Trinna get on my trophy lodge and its doing this
Wont let me quit the game either anythingbi can do
It still goin
Should i use tsurugi .338 or malmer 7mm for higher game
Define āhigher gameā
If the animal is class 7 or above, use the .338
Ok
how long does it normally take for a gator to reemerge from deep water?
alive not dead
1-5min imo
Hi guys, does anyone know if there are any animals to be found on the lake on the far top-left on Layton Lakes?
And how many moose drink zones does Layton Lakes have on average?
You'd be better off seeking the zones around that lake yourself - as the animals aren't static player to player. What might exist on my map isn't necessarily going to be there for yours
That said, are you grinding moose in particular?
I am grinding moose now in particular, but also picking up zones as I go fo other grinds.
Here's a generalized moose location map
I'm sure they are elsewhere, but this is a pretty solid start š
Interesting. š Thanks.
why are my friend walking as fast as am i running and crouching as fast as iam walking? its always the double the speed of his character i heard many other had this problem too but i dint find a solution
Is there a setting so that i can render animals from further away?
No setting render is the same for everyone ... right around 430m
Mines at approximately 400m
yeah probably closer to 400 I forget that I don't use metrics ....
400m or 430 yards
You canāt change the distance at which animals render in. If you are playing metric, the render distance is 400m.
I want to get a new map but I donāt quite know which to get out of these.
New England mountains
Yukon valley
Silver ridge peaks
Mississippi acres
Revontuli coast
Thereās no need to spam the channels with the same question
Iām not crying I am telling you not to do that or it will make people less likely to answer you
Itās 3 chats ššā¦ā¦.
Nah itās be fine
Are the easiest diamonds to get the ones that max at 3?
hmm no
Not necessarily
It depends on the animal itself
Axis deers are a lot more common diamonds than blackbuck
and both max at 5
Oh ok
What is the trophy rating for a diamond gemsbok
337.something
Ok thanks
What about blue wildebeest
What is the diamond rating for blue wildebeest
Oh I'm just actually an idiot
i will refer you to this
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LvNG7F9vSMCgpITApCgWezDHq2ueGY48vPc-XmgJoH8/edit#gid=414347241
My bad
medved taiga
Ok
guys what dlc map would you consider the best
Depends on preference
i just want to hunt animals other than deers, i already own vurhonga savanna and medved teiga
taiga*
any deer, or like, you're over whitetail?
mostly whitetail haha
So, go onto multi-player and check out Parque fernando
It has red deer, axis, blackbuck, water buffalo, pewma
Cinnamon teal
Couple other things
Mule deer?
parque is nice
cuatro is nice
te awaroa is nice
srp is nice
you kinda have to hunt drink zones on te awaroa but its nice
srp you can just walk around
parque and cuatro i havent hunted much yet
ty guys, got srp and i like it so far
I just found a 5-medium pronghorn i really hope its a diamond and not a troll
It was a troll š
Tragedy
.06 short
Iāve finally saved up 12k - what should my first purchases be? I have the modern rifle pack so thinking maybe the rangefinder or a caller?
You get a range estimate when you see the animals in game
When you spot them with binocs
Yeah, thatās true - a more accurate reading isnāt that useful is it
What about callers then?
Or a rifle sight
I could afford the Hyperion
i'd go with the scope, either hyperion or argus, depending on what you prefer, but both should be way more practical than the default 1-4x
Argus is 36k, Hyperion is 12k - Iāll grab the Hyperion for now š
Is there going to be a new map?
generally new maps release in june and december
We donāt know
for every animal, it's the same between both genders. the question is whether or not they can actually hit that rating
Should i get Mississippi acres, medved taiga, new england mountains, or rancho del arroyo
maybe you shouldn't ask which one to get, but rather what you're expecting of a new map and getting recommendations for that, because as always, you could ask a random amount of people and you'd end up with every map getting praised above the others š
What do you think
And should i get WP3, smoking barrels, duck and cover, or wild goose chase
well, i love the .22H mississippi brought in and the map itself looks like it'll be fun once i get to play it, on medved you got a complete change over the others with an all white map, no clue about the others, so yea, i'd suggest one of those but since it's unclear what you actually expect to gain that's basically just a useless opinion š
as for the other packs same situation all over, just ask yourself what YOU want, others won't be able to tell you that š
Ok
Do not get the smoking barrels
The muzzleloader is bugged (I think just the scope for it)
I have to aim to the right to hit the animal
I'd get it just for the M1 and the 10 ga shotgun for goosehunting š©
Not sure how the one perk zeroing works, I zeroed in on a crossbow and it missed by like 8 inches down
did you check the actual range that's listed in the zeroing modes?
Yes I was shooting at 40m and put the 40m on zeroing mode
Same with me 30-06 I was shooting at 150 and it hit lower than where my cross hair was
My*
Or Iām stupid and canāt figure out the dots on a crossbow
Just go to the shooting range on Hirsch and experiment
Looking for any advice on finding Black Grouse on Revontuli. Currently just kind of wandering aimlessly in the northern part of the map until I hear/see some. Trying for a Diamond and until I happen to find enough need zones it just feels tedious since the grouse donāt drink.
Hey guys, Is there anyone here that is colour blind? I've been playing the game now for several months now struggling with the colours, especially when it comes to tracking the animals. I've tried all the colour options available and found the best one for me is the bright green one, but even that one I struggle with on some reserves. I'm constantly having to adjust the settings of the game in order to track animals and it's costing me time! I was wondering how other colour blind players managed?
Wish you the best of luck
Not too sure, maybe there is a color blind setting?
I'm not on currently so I can't be too sure
Just booted it up briefly to check, couldnt find a colorblind setting
L
A quick google shows there isn't an option for it, either
Unfortunately there isn't a colour blind setting. Nvidia do game overlay setting for some games. There is along with about 20 other filters a colour blind filter for the game Planet Zoo which helps me so much, but the only filter there is for cotw is a sharpening one!!
Thanks for looking @tribal ledge I appreciate it
A color blind option would be great
Certified EW L
not a problem. That said! You would be a great person (being colorblind) to make a suggestion in the feedback channel - I dont recall seeing one in there before. You will have knowledge on it that those of us without can only read about.
OK cool, I'll post something in there making the suggestion that it would help to have the option for colour blind players to have a filter or something to help them play.
Absolutely, or even making the three(?) options available to overlay the game. Like Overwatch has a setting to go from standard colors to uhhhh Tritanopia, Protanopia and I think Deuteranopia
Is there more than that?
I'm not sure, I think there's 4 types. But I'm a real awkward ......... as I have different colour blindness in each eye!! My left eye which I'm slowly going blind in, is the worst and struggles with greens, whereas my right eye struggles with reds. Because of that I see the bright green better than any other when following tracks, but it's not so much the colour I'm follow. I'm following the brightness of it. If the other colours where brighter it would help me.
You know... I'm similar, but with vision quality haha. I am both near and farsighted - but in opposite eyes. I get lots of 'uhhhhmmm' when the eye drs do exams on me and try to sort out how to explain the situation š
Yeah I get a lot of that when I go. The hospital where I go for my check ups on my eyes is a training hospital, so when ever I go I get all the trainee Drs come and take a look at my eyes, cos 'apparently' my left eye is very unusual!
Some eye doctors fucked up my vision
Gave me the wrong glasses, I wore them for a year
Then we went to a hospital in the capital
And they figured out that my glasses were very wrong
guys im stuck at out of comfortzone mission
what are the drink times for mountain lions in silver ridge peaks?
0-3
What mission #number is it to where you get the albino bear in medved
Anyone?
What is the mission called
its the last mission in the quest list afaik
Ok
Guys i just shot a 274-328 estimate moose but i thought i had a bad first hit and it would live so i reset the time and tried going back to the zone but its not there and no tracks is there any way to find it
If there is hunting pressure then you killed it and its gone. If not, it will be there again.
Theres no hunting pressure but its still not at its zone
Reset the time 1 hour into the zonetime and quit to main menu. Then slowly make your way back there and take care of the wind. You will find it at his zone. Sometimes they just need time to get there, even with time reset and quitting to menu. Good luck
Ok thanks i hope it works
You will get him š
Still cant find it im starting to think i did kill it bc i had shot him from a tripod and i killed the 2 females with him as well
Thats unfortunate then..
If you quit to menu and then go back, he should be there. If he aint there you may really killed him with that shot. You will find another one for sure
Yh we learn from our mistakes ig ill get another soon
Im doing a red deer grind and i've found about 7 lvl 9's is it time for me to kill them and hope for a great one spawn?
great ones have nothing to do with that tbh, the lvl 9 herding is only good for diamonds, if you want a great one asap just shoot any kind of male as it's a pure off-chance of spawning
Sweet thanks!
np
What should i buy? Smoking barrels, duck and cover, or wild goose chase
i'd say smoking barrels, the shotgun's good, and the m1 too
I mean it depends what you wanting to do
Is this albino?
No
Itās grey which looks like albino but is darker
The cat will have pinkish features to go along with the white fur of an albino
Itās written next to Fur Type in the top left
It was a different time of day too
They sleepinā
If your looking to make easy money on hunter, go to revontuli and hunt tundra bean and Canada geese, 500+ for one
So I'm wondering if there's a specific shotgun bird shot i need for hunting any bird or will any do?
Yeah theres a birdshot
What is the easiest diamond in savannah
Wildebeest probably
Wildebeest and Cape buffalo
Ok
@small otter right but is one birdshit better then another?
birdshit
lmao
what's the best rifle for dropping 6-9 fast
required 2 weapons.
Thereās only one weapon can go 5 - 9, the drilling
I know
and itās good but you have to be close
Is the 300 good?
yes
7mm or drilling for one gun
Or 10g slugs
Or a bow
Or .454
oh yeah 7mm I totally forgot about it
me and a friend are trying to play multiplayer on PC. For some reason his characters movement seems glitched.
When hes trying to walk its like he is walking with crossed legs(and is slow)
what could be causing that?
What's his ping?
when he jumps he hovers in mid air
how do i see that?
we are both in UK.
I played with a mte who was inUS last night and he was fine
7mm on the 6s 338 on the 7-9s
On PC it's i
Iirc
yes
between 70-100
I've not heard of anything like this so I'm guessing it maybe a weak internet connection
š¤
Or not
i can screen share if you want to look/and see if you can see whats wrong?
Are either of y'all downloading something or anyone on the wifi downloading something?
no
Who's hosting?
ahh i think i know whats causing it...
hes playing the game on a portable hard drive
im hosting
That could be it
Have him host something if he can and see what happens
I was hoping to show him TA map as he doesnt have it
Oh it's fine if you don't wanna it was more curiosity if it would change anything if you did
just host it, leave and re-join within 15 minutes should make him the host while keeping the map
at least for testing that should be suffice
now his steam thinks the game is uninstalled even though the game files are there
Lmfao
what do i get here?
lmaoo i forgot about dog skills š
Which one sounds better to you
Anybody have tips to help me get a diamond moose Iām on the hunt for one now and Iām just now getting back on the game to try and find the diamond moose I might have only my New England map
what is the point of only happy when it rains perk? it says it decreases your visibility?
Decreases how visible you are
Thanks! It is weirdly worded.
Yeah it is
Best map for cash?
Wolves are good for cash in mp when they freeze.
What map
basically any map, just gotta set up a geese or duck camp š
Go on mp on medved, Yukon or cuatro colinas. It works for me but there are prolly better waysš¤·āāļø
How many missions on Te awaroa before the Mocha moose do I have to complete??
If im in multiplayer and i unlock lookout points do they count for single player?
yes
Not many
Hello everyone, I am stuck on silver ridge on a mission with a ringing phone, i can't complete it even if I have found all clues, i'm stuck on [1/2], can you help me ?
Itās on the ground near a backpack iirc
If you havenāt found the phone already
i can see the bottle and the phone, just can't interract with it
Try closing the game then returning to that spot
done, slept and went away, close and reload many time
Weird
any tips on leveling quickly
yea thx i kinda knew that. most effiecient im talking
anyone has the updated spread sheet for parque and mississipi?
Whats the safest way to reinstall cotw on xbox without deleting progress?
Multiplayer just disconnected me again - 4 lions and a jackal to be harvested. So many disconnects. Would it help to reinstall the game?
It shouldn't have any problems
Is there any place i can see the pictures that i have taken in game?
not exactly sure how it is on console but on steam those pictures get saved in the screenshot folder of the game
Thanks for the help but i am on console so it is still a mystery sadly,
The camera has no use on console, you cant take pictures with it.
Oo thats sad but thx for the help
Any tips for hunting Mule Deer? They seem like cryptids with supernatural senses on every map I play that has them.
Sadly no the best way to take pics is to remove the hub the camera doesn't do it's thing on console
I am going to try that but then i need to be realy close to get sone nice pictures
Yeah it sucks for them
Bumping bc I need help š
just go medved and snipe them from 2-300m
the default .243 does really well for that and the little vamps definitely won't sense you from that far out either
or wait a min, mule, not musk, my bad š
Not Musk, Mules. Mules are on Parque and Silver Ridge I think
yea, noticed that after posting it myself, sorry >_<
No worries dude! Musk deer are no biggie for me lol
until they start sucking your blood š
Omg š
But fr Mule deer always warning call me and vanish into the abyss, even when all I do is walk around the map, no sprinting
i heard crouching might help with that š
What's a good way to hunt gray wolves on Medved?
Hunt something else and bring the 454 pistol. They will hunt you
Ok thank you
I literally go for moose and reindeer and fight off whole packs of wolves
so for some reason none of my spotting or anything at all will outline, even tracks wont, and idk why. i have my outline turned on and tracks turned on\
like heres a ss of after i shot a elk in the middle of a huge herd, the tracks wont show up
Press C
When i get this message in the menu, does it count for my most recent map or other maps too? im so confused why it keeps doing this
Pretty sure it's just for your most recent map
Thank you
It can be any map
Beavers are just bitches
Yikes, okay thank you!
ey guys, the setting hide all animals clues in the interface tab suddenly turns on all the time
like, im tracking an animal and suddenly cant see the tracks anymore, then i go click on interface and its suddely on
any help?
Thx
this may or may not stick, I saw some folks complain about rebinding it and having an issue
š¦
I just fd up a diamond unintentionally. I'm looking at it, is there anything I can still do to reverse it? It's the second diamond I fd up. I feel so bad now.
Ugh, I accepted it and moved on.
nope. Once muffed, it's muffed.
It just walked straight by me. I was responding in an instant. Wrong type of ammo. Feels really bad.
Anyone ever had this glitch? It won't let me interact. Even after reloading map, reserve, and the restarting console. Mississippi map, B-side the point mission.
:C I shot a diamond blue bobcat with the wrong ammo
was so sad that I pity taxed it, because I never see blues
Hey gang, what do the harvest checks mean? I havenāt worried about them so far as theyāve not been an issue, but I fail the first check on the plains bison every damn time despite my impeccable marksmanship
Does anyone know how many mooese zones there are in layton lakes
It's because you're using the wrong ammo type. The harvest checks are proper ammo, shot twice or less, undamaged trophy organ (skull), and vital organ hit
If you fail any of those checks, the medal rating does down a level
Itās a class 9, isnāt my ammo class 4-9?
.308 is 4-8
Have any weapon packs?
Modern weapons and whichever one gives the night vision scope and binoculars
Hi-tech
Then your base game options are 7mm and .338
Which pack has a better option?
Hunter power pack has a better .338 and 7mm
Yukon comes with the .300 which is good too
Those are really the best class 9 guns
I just picked up Yukon, do I need to head into that map to buy it?
I don't think so but you need a certain amount of rifle score
Nice ok Iāll check that out, thanks for the help
How are none of these counted as pictures of Mr. Black -.-
You're gonna have to get way closer than that
75m is what I was told
that was like 80-100 or something
Why not just state that, they do for other missions.
Yeah I only started recently but from what I understand the description has always been a nightmare. I swear after several failed attempts I completed it by taking two photos of the same bear in quick succession
VALUE
75000
SCORE
6092
Huh, maybe Iāll buy the power weapon pack
I'm waiting for a sale
Good shout, I just picked up 3 of the maps for like £1.95 each on the PlayStation sale atm
I haved taxed all of my mess ups. I have two now.
it was a super rare?
rip
blue bobcats were uncommon between rancho's release and i believe the mississippi update
so it could have been shot during then
Hey guys I'm doing a whitetail grind of revontuli coast and have searched my map from head to toe for zones and have found 65 but yet I'm still struggling to get respawns. Is there something I'm doing wrong?
it was right when Rancho released
my one regret about the bobcats: not getting a blue diamond when the blues were still uncommons
Why donāt u just get one when they are rare
Then it would be a SR
Has anyone else had there outlines for animals just stop working randomly
press C
Best gun and ammo for lion hunting?
.338 > .300 > 7mm
as with all 7+ animals^^
Everybody be sleeping on the 9.3x74R
Nobody wants to type that out
anoyone got tips for hunting coyotes?
Ready? "Grelck"
The shorthand edition
Try to stalk their feed zones, use callers and scent cover
Be aware of your visibility and wind direction
thank you~
just completed the mission i was having trouble with thank you~
š®
You're welcome! Good luck with the rest of the hunting
just got one more main mission for the layton lake area, the werecoyote
Oh nice
Any tips on gator farming? I have tried just about everything and am just looking to get a more consistent method. Hotspots , load out, technique?
gator weird. just keep shooting them
how do i get European bunnies? they dont seem to ever come out of their burrows
They only come out at certain times of day
yeh, ive waited around those times fully hidden with the wind blowing opposite the burrows, do i have to be a certain distance away?
Euro rabbits have a different render distance, around 140m I believe
You won't see them if you're farther than that
Anyone know how to fix connection timed out? Only happens when me and my friend try to join each other. We get in once every once in awhile but canāt join each other the majority of the time. We can join random games just fine. (On Xbox)
If I buy a 270 in singleplayer, Does it carry over to multiplayer servers?
yes
Tried restart the Xbox both?
I have PS5 and when it happens I restart it. Always works
Yeah, restarted our consoles numerous times
Really?! Are there other small animals with the same fun mechanic of being invisible?
im new to game, what weapons should i get other than the 3 default
have any weapon packs
what is that
paid dlcs
no, any thats essential i should get?
power pack and pack 1 pack 1 for 22 and power pack for the amazing guns in it
have you harvested anything since @molten relic
go to lodge then trophy manager then there should be a thing that says save latest harvest
also what was the trophy might i ask
do this tho should be able to save it
You can also go to trophy manager through a storage locker now
i have my saved loadout that has decoy in it and i went out and place them and quit the game(without editing loadout first) and when i came back there's no decoy in the map and in my storage
so i just lost them?
For some reason I can only see it from tents, not outposts
bro i cant find diamonds
i think
cannot see a thread in support about it
bc ur not supposed to
I was wondering if anyone could tent outposts on Cuatro for me, i dont really have time of day to play that long, and the time that i have i want to spend hunting, and not driving around unlocking outposts. Just shoot a DM if you are down and ill send you my steam info! Thanks in advance!
i would say if itās your save and not someone elseās, itās fine, just copy the location from one pc to the other
Whatās a tip for finding animals on need zones?
Yeah you just gotta manually move it over
If the blood tracks disappear is the animal going it die?
They usually won't if there's no organ hits
So if that's why the blood disappeared, it's not going to die
I can't seem to get bunnies to come out of their burrows at all, I make sure it's the right time, and then I come to them against the wind while crawling but I still seem to never have any outside
I've been having the same issue. About half my burrows just seem completely inactive and rabbits don't seem to respawn much, they just kind of vanish. It's frustrating
Hi,where i find coyotes on layton?
Ok,it will be harder to see them,but challange accepted
Hi
Whenever I start a new game my tracks get turned off and I turn them back on but every time I start a new game they turn back off
Try hitting C
If you're on PC that's the hotkey for it and is very easy to accidentally hit
Thank you so much , I use c for running
Where is the broken atv supposed to be?
what is the maximum draw/render distance for animals.
My mate cant seem to see the same animals as me, even when I highlight them
450ish iirc
Might be further on PC, Iām on PS5 and havenāt spotted anything over 400m
400-450 meters
I've heard folks say both, and it might partly be what they've got their settings on as well
settings?
Animals render out at 415 meters, but I think they render in a bit closer than that
Yes like your in game settings. If you play on essentially minecraft graphics I'm not sure you'll get the same render as someone playing on 4k
yeh its been super frustrating, especially when they are the only gold taxidermy i need in my layton lake trophy area
