Do you have a scope on your rifle ?
Yes
But I believe itās very weak
did you zoom it ?
Only 4x
Yes
After yalls tips I have shot more deer than I had in the last hour
You can buy better ones in the storage with in-game money and/or unlock better one when you increase levels as a player
glad to know !
Guys I need help setting up a moose grind I will pay you
Yes a lot I have 6 diamond, moose, but I canāt seem to figure out the grind
I personally don't do grinds (at least no hm grinds). So i tagged a person that do grinds for GO's a lot
Hm grinds?
im playing with my friend in his multiplayer session just me and him and i keep getting disconected
like 7 times now
Herd management
Oh me neither
Any map
choose one
Layton lakes or revontuli
Alright
So according to Lady Legend, there would be about 110 drink zones in Layton
for moose
Ya I have all I believe
Located on the West Side of the map
good
I mean, if you don't do hm grinds and have all your zones
Just going to each of them one by one would be the move i guess
I need help setting up tents I suck at that
Ok
anyone know why the maps i own tell me to buy dlc
where is the vote?
are you playing on pc ?
is your disk in the xbox ?
yes
where is the animal vote?
Which maps does it tells you
Not too intrude yall but whats the best way too grind xp?
How do I set up a red deer grind on cuatro
do you have Emerald Coast ?
Yeah
its srp, quatro, te awora, and one or two more that i have bought then they say buy dlc
Also how do I get rid of the hunting pressure
Cause more in other places
could you post a ss of the problem ?
And it's really weird
hunt other zones
idk cus its on my xbox and im on my pc doing this rn
you have to install the dlcs
yeah
ik but it tells me to buy them first
it says buy dlc when i try to play them but i alr did in the past
like 2-3 yrs ago
on multiplayer ?
go to the xbox home screen
i can still go to them in mp but only for 30 mins and my progress is still there
then go to manage game and addons
k
k
then install it from there
i tried that and they dont show up
check your purchase history then
k
it will be 2-3 years ago
Is the 375 a DLC gun, or is it in base game?
DLC
Which DLC?
DLC
Hunterās choice
the last pack that came out
they dont show up but i swear i had them
could switching consoles be the culprit
from xbox 1 to series s
that may be it
Hey How many harvests can be saved at the same time?
cus i was playing srp like a month ago

Neck

RIP City
HOLY CRAP I JUST GOT SNUCK UP BEHIND BY A CROC AND HE ALMOST KILLED ME
IT SCARED ME SO BAD
what do i doooo
Does it restrain you from opening the game ?
no, i go to select a reserve (srp for ex) and it tells me to buy the dlc when i was playing it last week
that's really odd
At least you can play Layton or Hirsch
Which might help you through today
and you could look further into it tomorrow
do animals see or react to your headlamp?
no
nah i can play some dlc maps like sunderpatan but i cant play some
ive bought every map except new england and the newest
salzwesen or smth like dat
New England is my favorite map
Does anyone have a fix for the issue of some trophies or guns not showing stats when in the lodge and viewing with investigate mode?
Try using the light fachine gun it wonāt jam
Yo approximately how many zones should I have total for fallow on Te Awaroa
waht
I know your partially functioning brain remembers from earlier
i just wanna see the stats of my guns š
What are you on? Pc? Ps? Xbox?
PC
Idek if Xbox can get the game, but yea idk maybe the game is bugged for pc rn. Have you tried restarting app?
this is an issue i've seen on and off for awhile now
Like other players have had it too? Or you personally have dealt with it on and off?
i don't know of anyone else except a friend of mine that's seen it
Itās probably just a bug the game has with pc, I havenāt noticed it on PlayStation at all
hmph
so i found them in my purchase history on my new main acc and i cant use the dlcs on my cotw acc but the stuff i purchased on it i can use on my new main
I forgot to taxy my ogro iberian wolf a while back when I had the quest. Is there any way for me to get one for my lodge or would I have to start a New Game?
where can i find the pics i took im on xbox btw
with the ingame camera?
Is the .300 Canning Magnum, from the Yukon Valley DLC good?
2nd best 7-9 gun in the game
What's the best one then?
Pretty sure its the .300 AR in one of rhe dlc packs? Dont remember the full name
.375
No
If Iām grinding crocodiles on emerald coast, do the zones still appear after shooting multiple crocs in the same zone or did they fix that? Itās been a while since Iāve played and donāt wanna ruin any zones lol
Does anyone have a good random diamond wheel?
Whatās a diamond wheel?
Like a spin the wheel and whatever species it lands on you hunt to try and get a diamond
Oh dang thatās a sick idea and probably obvious since I didnāt even know that was a thing but no I do not š but Iām gonna use that if anyone else sends it
Also I just googled it and this following link showed up, I didnāt go through and see if they had every species but theyāve got at least a good start:
Thanks bro!
Yes
Can anyone slide me outpost on sundarpatan the tiger reserve plz would be greatly appreciated
Is alot of expansion good on bullets?
Penetration is better
Playing The hunter COTW, was following tracks, they suddenly disappeared. Nothings leaving tracks now, but can see blood sometimes?
Is this a known bug? I just joined the server to ask about this
I saw a thread about that online a couple months ago Iāve never had it happen to me tho
is there any way i dont spook the animals when i spawn in my tent i just started placing them near water holes and they run every time
so i bought some dlcs on my alt acc on xbox and i cant use those on my main but i can use the ones on my main on my alt
anyone know how to help
Itās how you have your Xbox home set up
You will only ever be able to do one or the other
So your alt can use your mains DLCās OR your main can use your altās DLCās
That is unfortunately the only way Xbox works
Itās stupid and I hate it but is what it is ig
but i used to be able to use them between each other
like 2 weeks ago
it started doing this like today
Hm, thatās odd, normally you shouldnāt
WAIT
Are both acc logged in at the same time
yes
The actual-
275.53
Have you tried restarting it?
yea
Hmm
That sounds like a Microsoft issue tbh Iām not too sure what is going on then
I havenāt had it allow me to use stuff both ways in a LONG time
i bought srp on my main and ive played w it on my alt for like 3 yrs ish but today when i went to play it didnt work
So I had a big last night is said I had to buy it even tho I already had, I clicked buy preparing to pay again but Xbox was like nope you got it then sent me back to cotw and it said I was good to play
Maybe try logging into your main and seeing if thatās the issue?
wdym
So log into cotw with your main account and try to use srp if it lets you I have no idea, if it says you donāt own it and have to buy it, go to ābuy it againā Xbox wonāt actually make you cotw just has a glitch saying you havenāt bought it when you have lol
1 i can play it on my main
and 2 ill do it tmrw cus my parents card is on it so if it does pay i wonty get on trouble
ill report back
gn
Hey guys
Iāve got a weapon that is class 2-4 but I have been hunting moose (class 8)
Thatās fair lol
Should I use ammunition that has better penetration?
Or just keep the soft tips Iām using
Wouldnāt hurt, you also wonāt get the full credit because of the wrong munitions class
And also, does anybody have the anatomy of the moose?
Yea I figured
But Iām just in it for the money
Youāll be better off with that higher class it gives you more money and also sure the ammoās more expensive BUT you can then 1 shot DROP them and shoot more at once that way
I promise you itās worth it
Especially if you stumble upon a diamond or GO
whatās a good starting dlc weapon? Leaning more towards looks like wood stocks.
the newest pack isnt too bad
I have been fallowgrinding for a while now doing HM. I right now have 5 lvl 5s stacked. When can I start shooting them?
How do I verify my account to access cote polls
How do you get mods
@dull oak did you just ignore the rule about not discussing mods or cheats
Oops my bad didn't see that
I like weapon packs 2 and 3, smoking Barrels is also really fun
Does anyone have any tips for G1 fallow dear grinding?
Im having lots of trouble getting atleast a diamond whitetail in rancho del arroyo can anyone give me tips on how to spawn one? Or even a grate one if that ok

Yes, srry for the late response I was asleep
When herd managing, why do u shoot only mid levels and up even if there's a low level in a main zone, shouldn't u shoot lows in main to move them out? I'm not exactly sure how that works
Ive got a small question for anyone who has experience with the SGP (the new dog) how is it? Is it worth getting?
Iāve heard mixed responses to the question so I decided to wait on purchasing
I donāt think itās too bad but it depends if youāre willing to wait and let the dog do what it does
I will only shoot "non shooter" males if the zone theyre at is one of my favorite/main zones. I have had success with that, it just takes some patience and sometimes you'll have multiple rounds of killing non shooters before the respawn is good. I wouldnt do it a ton though, just if you need to.
I might wait aswell, im going to purchase salziweser and a labrador retriever for bird hunting but i dont know if i should purchase the GSP aswell
Im willing to wait but i still dont know how it works or if it gives any specific info like trophy rating or something
Alr thx
Wait sorry, so how would the low level rotate out if it isn't killed?
I mean, it wouldnt. You want to leave low levels where you dont want to shoot, and shoot low levels at your target zones. I'm mostly just saying not to shoot all the low levels, just shoot the ones in zones you want to farm. Sorry if I was confusing haha
Ohhhhhhh yea nah I get it now thx, and all g dw
Guys i want to buy map today but i dont know what map should i get i have revontuli,yukon,emerald,sundarpatan any tips?
Revontuli is an absolute blast for birds, whitetail, and moose. Its a fun map, but the income isnt great there. One of my favorites.
Yukon has gorgeous scenery, and the snowfall is awesome! It can be a bit annoying to traverse without fast travel because of all the rivers, but the hunting is great.
Emerald is a great map if youre newer - animals everywhere. Crocs are a ton of fun, and you can grind for cash really well there.
Sundarpatan is... Hard. Like, really really hard. I dont care for its design, but if youre a diehard realism hunter its great.
I'd go with Emerald
Best map in the game imo
I have emerald already
OH you mentioned the maps you already have
Ohh, yeah sorry
Im a moron lmao
Yea
Usually people are asking for what to buy yk
Its okay but thanks for info
Te Awaroa is great, Medved is a classic for sure
I was thinking about te aworea
The ones I cant recommend are Parque, SRP and Rancho
And what about the new salzwiesen?
I like hunting the most in this region
I love emerald i have 7 Dia banteng and 4 crocs but i cant get any Dia hog deer
I havent hunted on it a TON, but with the new dog, its a blast. Flushing the birds is a lot of fun
Yes i have seen some videos but im more of the deer guy im looking for something with a lot of deer types or any big animals
I want to get te awaroa or cuatro colinas
But im not sure
Cuatro is lots of fun but a little slow, the story is good. Te Awaroa is gread for fallow deer. Im doing my GO grind there
A no brainer is Silver Ridge Peaks, a lot of open spaces for big game hunting...
you will need a big gun to make the most of it, but will not miss much if you dont have it, since the only class 9 is the Plains Bison, but i don't know how well it pays or how popular it is this
I heard that in te awaroa are tons of drink zones for fallow,red deer
How much tents can you put on a single map?
Alr ty
No specific info as far as I know, but it gets the birds to flush so you can actually get the trophy
Whats flushing?
Guys do any of you have a really good places for whitetail deer on revontuli?
Oh thanks
My first trophy (and the only one that is not mission related) is a Melanistic Plains bison, and i did not even knew it was a rare at the time š¤Æ
It scares the birds up off the ground so for like pheasant they now REALLY like to run. Especially the trophy ones. So the dog will flush (spook) them up in the air and you can shoot them and not get the grounded message so you can truly get a trophy haha
Ah okay, seems pretty worth it to be honest. Its between buying the GSP and buying Sundarpatan.
Donāt Iāve heard itās the HARDEST map out there and it sucks
But idk thatās just what Iāve heard
Guys what weapon is better the M1 from smoky barrels or 308. From modern?
Seems like it, tigers seem to really dislike your presence.
Okay ill buy Gsp probably
Main issue is that i hunt birds with a retriever so he retrieves them for me but now i cant do that with the gsp
Well not until i level it up that is
308 is the "meta" rifle, but i really like the M1, for it sounds and reaload animation
Yeah i own the 308 but i wanna buy the M1 it look so unique and sound so good
Okay thanks im gonna buy it now
308 for grinding , for the normal hunting M1 is the GOAT (IMO)
Any tips on tent placement for g1 grinds?
Because i just ruined my best spot
Anyone know the best spot for deer in Mississippi
I've been trying to hunt there since I got my diamond buck but don't know where to go
i dont play on missisipi but try to set time for their drink zone a look at any lakes you will find zones
They can be nearly anywhere on the map which is a pain! Iād suggest look at your lakes first as theyāre easier to spot deer from than the winding rivers
Dmed them, will help once I get a response and if I'm around
Thank you !
They were sure lost in their grinds setup
Hello guys! I was wondering is there like a good time or some requirements before starting to hunt for diamonds or trophies. I'm level 22 in game and I have 2-3 maps fully discovered. Should I discover them all and get to level 30 before i think about hunting diamonds. Are all animals "grindable" or do you have to wait for good rng to find it. I imagine herd management comes into play somewhere here
No problem. This week its getting choas at work as I work in retail so its super busy.
For crocodiles, i shoot everything
Put a tent at each end of the beach past the mangroves
And walk and shoot everything
ok
Then go back to the first tent, and the pressure should already been diminished
I killed over 1100+ crocs
And i got 3 leucistics from it and 2 diamonds
Aswell, crocs rest for most of the day
So you can set the time at 17:00
And you will get Banteng and Red Fox drinking too
No problem ! Happy to help !
I got 2 diamonds bantengs in my croc grind
By doing the coast
And level 4 bantengs can make diamonds quite often (747-800 kg)
i got a diamond bateng on my croc grind just last night lol
a welcome bonus
Way to go man !
first time i had run it in the late evening, i never knew they came drinking there
and red foxes
They do
Sambar, Red Fox and Banteng drink at the same time
Sambar do not drink on the beach tho
the other 2 do
could someone send me some ss to have equipment to grind on the new map???
Best spot for waterfowl hunting in salzwiesen
hey ive been great one grinding red deer for two weeks how do i know if the grind is working?
Have you found a great one?
siema
can anyone on xbox help me set up my moose grind)
german tracker dog cant find wolfes. so he run out of the map š¦
and cross path of the wolfes. but ignore them
is there any way i can see how many saltwater crocodiles i've killed overall
how do people keep count of how many kills they have got in a grind
Paper and pencil, counter apps
ty
Whatās the best gun to use for hunting alligators?
probs same as saltwater croc
the .300 arazyna
Where do you find that gun at because I canāt find it
it's a DLC gun
it costs like 2$
but the .338 works just as fine as the .300
the 338 is 60k in the shop i think
I wanna start a g1 whitetail grind what levels and scores do I shoot and what do I leave
When grinding diamond ducks and geese do you want to only shoot males or everything?
anyone in here that could help me look for zones on layton for moose
no
can i tell if my red deer grind is working by having a diamond and a mythical in the same zone
there soloās nvm
how can i change the language in cotw
best map to hunt on?
what do you wanna hunt class 9,8,7 ?
abit lower im a beginner
TE is pretty nice imo
then i would say something like te awaroa it goes from 1 to 6 beatiful animals and 3 or 4 great ones
im saving up for the 7MM empress magnum, im using the base rifle you get given
⦠im using the free one š¤£
If you can afford that I'd recommend using that polymer, especially for bigger animals
It's easier to hit good if the angle is not really good
Yea, ill give it a go. But im like 2,1k off getting the magnum so i might aswell save up for it
That's true
if you wanna buy a map and some dlc you find are good i believe tomorrow is winter sale so you get 80 or 90 % off if you do wanna buy a few thing i can recommend the bolt action pack
It will be in like 15% sale probably
Im deffo gonna buy some packs, especially rn since there about 5$ a pop
Because its new DLC
is it worth buying the turkey call?
Imo yeah, especially if you don't have any rifle for class 1
yeah but i meant the overall sale most maps are gonna be 70 or 80 while the base game is gonna be 90 i think
Yee
i love it when deer sit broadside for me to hit a lung
I am maybe gonna buy Ambusher pack or High Caliber weapon pack
That's really nice shot ngl
im always aiming for the lung, i never shoot unless there broadside
With better gun you can go for heart shot from front, it's really not hard
It's really hard to use it correctly
You need to get close
Like 40m if you want to be sure
i cannot pickup my turkey i just killed
And you sure it's dead?
yep
I once tried claiming live Crocodile for solid couple minutes
In that case idk
i shot it, point black and it gave me the achievement aswell. So ik it is dead
Your map or multiplayer?
Multi
From lag
I play with my friends and we just rejoin and eventually claim, sometimes it just disappears
Yeah its only a turkey Lol
did you try from another angle could be that you try to click it but instead click the blood trail
With what rifle did you kill him?
looks like the .243
indeed
But i bought those bullets someone told me to buy
Also, I see flinter fast traveling without spooking animals. Is that still the case 2 years after this particular video?
revolvers
Hi im trying to play on another pc is there any way to keep my progress? I can try copying and sending myself the save file but is there an easier way?
bug? pressing E on the tracks doesnt SHOW the tracks..
so it keeps the same save file?
I think so
okay thanks i will try
is there any garanteed place to find droppings oin this map, if so where?
been trying for a good half hour but tracks dont work
in other words can someone freaking tell me how tracking is supposed to work because the game hasnt and it wants me to find poop
you could just not do that
wdym?
just hunt instead
is there a way to make ur great one grind faster?
go to drink zones and aim for lung
but where do i find drink zones?
at water
kill more
it's really not hard
whats the point in making a game withing showing people how to play the damn thing
it's pretty obvious that you're supposed to shoot the stuff
there hasnt been a mission going over and explaining how the process works
wdym process
I shot some things earlier and they just ran off
on layton i believe the first thing it does is show you a doe to shoot
same with hirsch
and what did you shoot
so its not just "point and shoot" because that dont work
im relatively new to the game and yesterday i decided to cop a few dlc's. All which work, with the exception of one- being the high calibre weapon pack DLC. Ive tried: deleting and reinstalling the game, checking the box in properties, waiting for a min and unchecking it (multiple times), verifying the integrity of it- nothing has worked so far. Does anyone have any suggestions for me please, thanks a lot :).
either your aim is bad or you're using a weak gun
Well whatever level I am on that did not happen
yes it did
you just spooked it off
tbf if theyāre new theyāre probably using .243 soft point on like crocs
just got told to check some cabins and wood, then go find a spruce tree with beetles and mark it, then go take some samples near water and then find poop with no direction at all
the dlc missions don't help you at all
this game doesnāt really have a level system in the way your talking about, the level system in this game maxās at 60 and all you get is perk/skill points
you should be playing the base game maps
go on layton lakes and just follow those missions
i dont mean level like character/rpg unlock points level... i mean level, the world, the map the zone whatever
either way, iād go on layton and try hunting some whitetail
but why does the game let you play levels without a tutorial if you are new?
because itās a dlc
surely they should be locked until the tutorial is done to prevent any confusion
it's not that hard anyways
you paid money to get on that map, the game doesnāt think a new person whoās never played before is gonna buy a dlc map and go crazy
like i said just go to drink zones and aim for lung
what if the game was gifted with DLCs?
then a player wont know what is what
yes they would
they literally start you out on layton
it's the first map in the list
well no because if so we wouldnt be having this conversation.
well like i said just go to drink zones, use the right gun, and aim for lung
it's really that simple
I think there was a map choice screen yeah, but obviously if you can select maps the expectation is that the tutorial will work on any of them.
open your inventory, go to ammo, you should see ārecommended classesā when you spot a animal using your binoculars youāll see a little number top right of the box (not the 3-very easy or 5-medium) thatās the animalās class
If it doesn't they should be locked
if the animal is in the recommended class of the ammo your using you can kill it and pass all harvest checks (donāt shoot it more than 2 times and hit vitals)
you wanna aim to hit lungs so right behind the shoulder blade for the most part
^^^
Is the 10mm glock a good sidearm?
For self defence vs wolfs yes
The best one imo
But not usable for hunting like Foxes
Does the rifle affect how deep the bullet goes or is it j the ammo bc I assume my big bolt action would be more impact full than my semi automatic
just the ammo
bolt actions are still better tho
not good enough
how do i actually find a rare saltwater crocodile color? i've been searching for over 10 days/30 hours of gametime for one and i have only gotten 2 legendaries, i must be doing something wrong
mag dumped a yak twice and it was still running
kill more
u sure?
yeah
no other way you're gonna spawn it
unless you multiplayer hop or find more initial spawns
Y would a bolt action be better. My 338 ammo is the pretty similar 2 my 300 mag ammo but the 338 is more expensive
So should I use the bolt or semi?
338
they look better
375 go burr
7mm better then 338 and 300 fr
Also what do u guys recommend 4 animals that r class 3 like pronghorn
So just a couple more days?
soft points within 150m yeah
Mosin!
maybe if my internet starts working
mosin or moradi .44
Mosin
Is there any real reason to use Moradi and not just .44 handgun?
I mean the ammo is gonna act the same right?
Just easier to hit
Because higher zeroing distance
easier to account for drop and better scopes
300m shots are super easy with the moradi
handgun not so much
So it's not better, it's just easier to use?
basically
Between the 7mm magnum, 300 mag tac, and the tsurgi which one should I use
tsurgi
moradi also levergun so i'm biased to that
Should I get the penatration rounds?
yes
same thing on tutorial levels.... pressing E does not show any footprints trail...
I pressed E but no footprints appear in front of the large shaded zone
there's tracks clearly right infront of that
where?>
the blue turd
behind the post
tracks in this game arent a clear path they are blodges with some space inbetween the next set of tracks is the turd that you can see in the first pic
it's not gonna be right infront of the previous tracks lol
continue going in that direction
The mosins ammo doesn't offer much penatration but will it still be enough 4 deer?
continue going in the direction that the first track showed untill you find a new set
there was a small footprint patch and another turd goin up the hill but then thats it... nothing more
yes
ye keep going past the turd in the same direction
It has plenty of penetration
Dawg continue following it
That or make a better shot
your supposed to follow the tracks they arent going to come to you
^^^
but there aint any footprints hardley anywhere
It says it only has 15 penatration but if its enough 4 deer ill use it
theres tracks all over the place from lots of different animals....
It has 15 penetration but acts different, like if we compare it to 243 soft points that have the exact same stats Mosin will kill everything much faster
If you hit good it can double lung black bear
well luckily the game automatically makes them a different colour then from the tracks your following
they're all white until i click on them and then they turn blue
Does it do this bc of the power of the gun?
when you click them you "select" that animals track meaning any track that specific animal has left behind will now be blue untill you select a different animals trail
but the original tracks stopped being blue half way up the hill
then you selected a different trail or are seeing a other animals tracks
ok then so if you get confused how to get back on track?
and why do they make the damn start so complex and confusing
woulda been helpful if any of this info had been in the game
it's really not
its not supposed to be, its supposed to go like "you shoot the animal, harvest it. run to the first few outposts"
go back to a track you know is from the animal you want
at this point it might just be better to just move on from this animal tho and follow the missions for a bit
Or different type of ammo, idk
"track down and harvest your first animal" is the quest
you can do a different animal
even if you didnt track it it should still count just shoot anything and harvest it
guys which dog out of the 3 is the best?
pointer
what can it do
or just don't do missions
wait is the pointer the new one that just came out?
Yee
ohh
For beginners I'd recommend Bloodhound tho
If you know what you are doing Pointer is better
pointer is probably the most useful but none of them are really necessary
ye
i just want to get one bc i have the money rn and why not yk
for big game like moose and all that and some deer, which one would be the best?
pointer
whats the clue is "fresh" "old" and "trot" wtf does trot mean?
it means it was trotting
Itās trotting
does anyone know an counter like when i kill an croc i press a button without going to google or to the app
trot is a running speed
counter app on phone
inbetween run and walk
wait can the pointer bring birds to u like the labrador
Fresh means fresh dookie and old means old dookie
i meant something for pc so i dont have to tab out or do it on the phone
ohh
not unless you got both dlcs, max out the pointer and use the expert dog skill you get from it to give it the extra ability to retrieve
i dont know if there is but i just use an app on the phone
ohh
wait what does the pointer do in all?
it points out animals
it will look around in your general area and find animals for you i find it mainly helpfull when im tracking something down
like where they are so i can shoot them or like the bloodhound and shows where the downed ones are?
ohh wait
pointer tracks before they are dead and bloodhound tracks after they are dead
so if im at a moose drinking spot lets say, and i dont see any it will show where some are?
Or just shot to be exact
Basically yeah
ohhh thats nice
If he feels like it
Nearest I think
so you can select 4 options.
search small game
search medium game
search large game
search track (search track means it will find any animal of that species after selecting a track)
after selecting a option it will go around in your general area looking for things
They pee different way
Nah
oh oke
honestly, i dont think so but its a fun little tool to use ingame its not something thats gonna redefine your play style or be a major buff to you
wtf is this, the tracks point round in circles....
to me the dogs are more like a fun extra thing to work on maxing out i dont actually use them to actually help me all that much
just don't track it bro
i mean i did just get a free $20 steam giftcard so should i get it?
Oh, makes sense
if you can't make a good shot just let it go
Sounds legit
he ran over a point he was in previously, also that moose is probably not dying if you shot it with that shotgun
well it is $7.79 but tax
If you hit good it will die pretty soon
how much distance does it have to go to reset into not alert mode?
i want to wait for it to go on sale but i have no idea when thats going to be and i would prob have spent that $20 giftcard on other stuff by then
he just started out, thats the starting shotgun loaded with buckshot which is notoriously weak ingame
Oh yeah, hmm
kind of just not move and crouch or crawl and it will get out of alert eventually
That will do absolutely nothing, you are right
as long as your not like on top of it
usually animals will flee a decent distance but it depends if your actively chasing them or not. if your chasing them they will just keep running. for the actual alert state they wont stay in it long as long as you stay hidden
i mean guys should i get the pointer bc i got a $20 giftcard from a friend
The blood hound helps me track down blood bc I'm lowkey bad at cotw but I think once u progress u won't rlly need it
and it seems helpfull
ye i have all the skills or perks u need to track stuff down good but im just deciding if i want to get the pointer rn to help me spot things
wait so if you chase them they will auto alert? what range?
is it 100s of meters away so you basically cant hunt or is it closer when the animal is visible?
if you run at a animal it will see you yes. the range depends on how much noise your making and how fast your moving and all that.
it's like less than 150m
by vision alone
What the hell do they teach yāall in school these days?
also if the animal is facing towards you it will notice you faster and it also kinda depends on the animal
but its a forest, you cant even see that distance
^^
then don't track it
like i said go to drink zones
more like 200-230 without the noise and vision reducing skills you can get
then move slower
and sneakier
or go to a more open place
you'll see super clearly at drink zones
i am walking speed already, not running
but it aint popped up the "animal has noticed you" message so i guess I am just unlucky and this animal run like forrest gump
Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far.
yeah it will tell you if it's alert when you spot it
but also just quit tracking it bro
like that doe is not worth it
so for someone who has all the sneaking skills you can unlock later ingame walking would be more than fine but for someone just starting out your probably still gonna make to much noise walking
i dunno if it was a doe
All this over a doe?
š
Did it have antlers?
a doe is like deer or something, the thing I shot was like a moose but without the antlers
the warning and fleeing calls arent garantueed you can also spook animals and never know
only if you got the skill for it
So a cow
no not that fat
why the hell are you hunting moose with a .243
christ almighty š
and it did have the cow pattern it had fur
a doe is a female deer, for a moose a female (so without antlers) would be called a cow
Because pop pop done it back in the 70ās
A... horse?
whatever it is, it got stabilizers or something
its a cow (female moose) with amazing balance
which dum dum called it a cow wtf, thats a different animal altogether
"Moose Tracks" hmm, I wonder what animal made these tracks
bro
cows are called cows bc they are female
^^
Who you calling dumb?
Anyone know for ducks and geese if you should shoot all birds or just male for diamond grinding?
so the real question we should be asking is which dum dum gave the domestic black and white bovines the common name "cow"
all birds
entire flock
Even the birds you aren't grinding
well still not found it but i have got the achievement for a scandinavia mile or something
Well I have every bird setup for each map so Iām grinding everything.
Like Yukon I have two Harley setups and a goose set up
well don't track it then
that means you moved your feet a certain amount of times
Hello Guys in new map what strategy for fox shot everything or mid level for female and male??
They should add a Harley Davidson bike to this game
its not worth it just go to a outpost š š
Yessir
ARGHHHHHH
No i wasted a bullet on that thing and I want it back
bfg 5000 when?
I think it has something to do with either the original translation into English, or thr evolution from Old English and Middle English
besides the tutorial hasnt advised tracking something else... so this is the experience the game developers wanted people to have
Youāre going to gut the thing and take the bullet out, smelt it down, mold it, then press it into new brass?
In a video game?
Better than me lol
it didnt advise that because the developers assumed you would hit the shot well on the very first white tail doe that spawns right in front of you when you first log into the game
wait so the developers didnt even plan contingencies?
yo guys should i get the pointer? with tax its $8.80
the contingencie is you moving on and shooting a different animal
They also assumed you'd shoot the whitetail and not find a random moose
is it actually worth that much tho?
I'd get instead some map if you don't have all
One of the best dlcās theyāve produced in the past 4 years
Get every dlc
ooh
where do i find piebald animals (looking for deer) or other rare fur types
br im workin on it but im not that rich
like you either do the tutorial the way they wanted and the tutorial just quits if you dont know how to do it the way they wanted?
i have all the maps I really want rn and i will still have some cash left over on my giftcard if i want to get another
rare fur types are completely random so just keep shooting animals untill eventually one will spawn in
I have a western capercaillie that is a possible diamond. Where is the vital so I don't mess it up? Headshot with a .22?
it's not complicated at all bro
I think they expected most people to atleast understand how animals work
shoot it anywhere
class 1 animals dont have a vital area
Thanks!
maybe its just bugged, theres not even any blood now
always fun to hit their toes and see them drop dead
It can stop bleeding
ye thats bc he stopped bleeding bc the shot was to low calibre and didnt hit anything meaningfull
It stopped bleeding because you had a poor shot
Animals stop bleeding fyi
JUST STOP TRACKING IT š
that poor moose is having a awfull day, first it gets tickled by a 243 soft point bullet and then it gets chased all over the lower half of balmont
not even .243 soft points
12ga buckshot
even worse
no i shot at it with the sniper rifle

better off pinching the damn mooseš
im not good in math so how many kills would i need till i get a rare fur type like croc 0.05% so how many kills to get the 0,05%
at least one
also don't share percentages
i love new players like you. completely oblivious by what they are doing and being able to see that in every message is so fun lmao makes me remember when i first started playing myself
I wish buckshot was actually viable
Same
eyyyyy i found it
Woop woop!!!
What classes would .410 slugs cover
Why are the ducks so freakin loud
Shotguns used to be commonplace on irl leopard hunts, Iām not even sure ingame buckshot could kill a rat
Youd have to be point blank
2-5 or so.
shoot just behind the shoulder into the lungs. your gun is way to weak for the moose but at this point might as well try
10ga buckshot is ethical for gators lol
And .410 buckshots would probably cover the same class
Just you get more pellets
the tracks are the wrong color
did you shoot the moose tho?
W
I've shot multiple deer point blank with buckshot. Not even a single vital
wait if i link my xbox account to steam will that let me play on my pc
now should i give it a goofy name or the name of my real dog?
in the head possible... view was wiggling all over so dont know
also can u chaneg the name of it after later after u named it?
why the hell would you shoot it in the head
thats where the brain is
.
it would die faster
dont aim for headshots. ruins the trophy on most animals. if you see blood you hit it if not dont bother and move on
^^
Bingleswamp The Meticulous
uhmm
good?
Nuts
uhmmm
it's alright ig
its also a much smaller target than the lungs and is moving around a lot more plus it ruins the score on like 90% of animals meaning you earn less money and would ruin the trophy
also can u change the name of the dogs later if u want to?
10ga buckshot is like the only SLIGHTLY viable buckshot
Idk, I haven't checked
?
wdym question mark lol
oh
it's against the rules
They added it with retrievers iirc
can u only change it once or as many times as u want? and does it cost anything
i dont know what you mean with dont share %
How about this instead?
That's called a bear
the percentage of animal furs
cant find anything in the rules that say you cant share rare fur type spawn %
rule 9
As many times
it's datamined info
Definition of datamined lol
oh oke. also which fur looks the best bc idk which one i want lol
and why shouldnt i share it its not an secret
still technically to big for you gun but you can try hitting it in the lungs it will die if you hit it well so its still some cash
I like liver
it's still against the rules
just don't share it in the server
also should i get male or female dog
Male
Doesnāt matter
does data mining count as cheating, hacking or modding?
damn looks like i got it pretty bad
yes
Cus it's wasn't officially released by EW
I donāt like looking at dongs so all my dogs are female
oh
mods have said it multiple times
Except for my bloodhound pablo
im prob just going to get the liver ticked
huh didnt know that i also dont see it in the rules
ye thats vital blood the beer will still run a decent bit tho bc your gun is to weak for it but it should die
o h
yeah that's @long ice's job
yayayaya
still against the rules either way
Is that a good rating?
no
nah not at all. but its cash and xp which is more important for you rn lmao
what this mean?
It means what it says
You should taxidermy that bear
thats for if you want to taxerdermise a trophy animal to put up in your trophy lodge
Thatās a perfect specimen
they cant even afford it lol
Peak of its species
okay i cant decide, should i get liver ticked or liver whitepatched ticked for my dog?
Liver
.
flip a coin
i want some desiggn
oh good idea
100 sided dice
but im still going to think about it for an hour
For real i was tracking it like forever, and in actual fact it was just a small part of the map?
ye the maps in this game are pretty chonky
I got whitepatched tick.
It really doesnāt matter that much lol
ye lol
i just want it to look good lol
does just the liver ticked have those spots on the back
does bloodhound have an all black fur
i got a mission to visit an outpost, but im already here?
go away from it for a sec then walk back
phantom prop left under the outpost lolololol
guh?! i found a deer and killed it and taxidermied it, but my money went down and not up?
This is not an outpost, it's looking tower
Outpost will be like small house
On your map there should be it's symbol
Green small house
Ok?
Cuz you know spending money doesn't pay you it
It costs money to taxidermy
but when you taxidermy you sell it so shoudnt the money go up?
Don't taxidermy every single animal?
Then don't taxidermize it lol
but then how you make money?
By harvesting animals
mission appears broken...
Go to the pole and claim the outpost
Christ almighty
Yo you gotta be joking right?š¤£
theres tons of different ammo types in the "rifle" section
when the weapon is selected it doesn't say what ammo it uses
this one..... there is no name on the screen as you can see...
Go into the cache and it will tell you what bullets to buy
Theres a list in the weapon rifle section... but my gun has a scope on it and none in the list do
cache?
The thing you're in right now
Jesus christ man
Go by the name
the name of what?
Youāve got to be trolling right??
THE GUN
my gun doesn't have a name when I equip it, so how can i know what it is?
IT TELLS YOU
where?
i dont use the weapon wheel
^^^
The storage
i dont know how to access the inventory
keyboard pause? doesnt do anything
Omlš
one of these?
Yes
is it the ranger 243?
Yes
Your using the .243 you have 41 rounds of ammo you donāt need more right now cause you have very little money.
Now what ammo do you think it uses?
The ammo is free?
my actual gun has a scope on it, but in the image in the middle it doesnt#
Because the scope is an attachment for the gun
Is .243 ammo free?? I havenāt used it since I started the game so I donāt remember lmao
i bought some now am broke lol
best map for turkey huting?
new england
thankyou kind sir
how to take photos?
