Why can you only create 1 layton lake trophy cabin??

frosty moth
#

cos Devs said so

cosmic jetty
#

Oh boy...

#

And i can only put the highlighted animals on the plates?

spark basalt
#

yup

#

except the middle one, you can put anything there

frosty moth
#

tldr you have to buy a DLC cabin

cosmic jetty
#

which map was this intended for, there arent even bisons on layton lake

frosty moth

really wanted to have one cabin per map, this one seemed perfect for alberta but theyre not making it easy

frosty moth

#

can i grind for a greatone without herd managment?

frosty moth
#

yes

spark basalt
#

yes

dry path
#

would hermanagment increase my oddds of a greatone?

frosty moth
#

great one as far as we know are not influenced by HM

spark basalt
#

well , tbh were not sure, we 100% know it incrasers chances of diamonds and the potential of super rares

dry path
#

so i can just get myself 16 lakes and start shooting?

frosty moth
frosty moth
#

of course you should also find every zone for the animal too

dry path
#

whys that

frosty moth
#

to avoid a respawn jumping to an undiscovered herd and/or so you know where to go to check your herds (it's just useful to keep track of)

dry path
frosty moth
#

and plus im guessing you atleast don't wanna miss out on a possible undiscovered rare fur or random diamond in a herd you haven't found

cosmic jetty
#

nahh bro nah why is there a limit for the other lodges toooo oml

Hi, Iam trying to hunt for GO red deer. I tried HM but got to the point I knew about couple 8's and 9's and I cant spawn another high lvl only 4's, 5's and 6's... should I kill the 8¨s and 9's? thanks

cosmic jetty
#

There's 17 maps

#

I want to make 1 lodge per map and can't.

nimble smelt
#

That's just stupid ngl

#

Lodges are far too big for that

cosmic jetty
#

I still want to keep it "on theme" ?

nimble smelt
#

Just do it by room

#

One room for layton, one for hirsch, one for medved, and so on

cosmic jetty
#

Can't name rooms can I?

#

Some rooms only have like 1 plate

proper mesa
#

Or just lodge by continent lol

cosmic jetty
#

Maybe, but then for example sundarpatan and medved don't fit together

dry path
#

is there just 1 variaton of the greatone red deer?

# feral aurora Is the scopes and crosshairs pack worth the money

Hi!

The Odin 4-12x33 scope is the scope I use on all my rifles. Its outline is very thin. I regularly use the Angler 4-8x100 Night Vision scope and the one that comes with the inventory; the color of the Angler night vision scope is blue, not green. The scope's outline is very wide, which reduces the peripheral field of view, making it impractical when you need to take down several animals, but it's a powerful scope and the image is very clear..

fierce wave
feral aurora
#

Thanks so much

near inlet
# feral aurora Thanks so much

You can also change your scope's reticle to another one, such as a crosshair, a dot, or small arrows. You have several options.

frosty moth
#

its the only way to get a magnified optic for pistols as well

near inlet
#

I often use the Tru-Vision sights at night in the dense forest when I expect to be attacked at close range.

feral aurora
#

I have the night vision scope from that one pack

#

Not the scopes pack

cosmic jetty
#

Hey so without having to grind I just wanna know how to get diamonds to spawn, I kill the higher level animals right?

rapid anchor
#

Lady Legend, Flinter, Scarecrow etc have videos on herd management

#

essentially if you kill an animal it will respawn either a little bigger or a little smaller

fierce wave
rapid anchor
#

what animal you going for

fierce wave
rapid anchor
fierce wave
#

Ye was only one in the respawn pull

#

Pool*

rapid anchor
#

Wait ur the cotw info guy

cosmic jetty
#

What levels should I bother killing? Like for example for 5 class I kill lvl 3 and 4 or only 4? And for class 9 I kill lvl 7 and 8? Or even lower?

fierce wave
#

But if you're not setting up a grind just go around hunting and always kill the biggest first before the littlest

cosmic jetty
fierce wave
#

For lvl 9 animals leave 4s and smaller unless it is mountain lions lions or tigers

#

Or yaks

#

Lvl 5 animals leave 2s and smaller

#

Lvl 3 animals leave really small lvl 1s

cosmic jetty
#

So for the exceptions I kill all lvls or?

fierce wave
#

I mean yeah killing all levels typically still results in a diamond in 50-200 kills give or take

cosmic jetty
fierce wave
#

No they just min at levels higher then 4 lions min at 3 mt lions yaks and tigers min at 5

cosmic jetty
fierce wave
#

5+ for lions 6+ for other 3 Imo

cosmic jetty
#

Ohh alright thank you

fierce wave
#

But again you don't HAVE to do any of that killing everything is just fine that can just possibly help chances over time for the future

fierce wave

#

There is a wind system in game that affects scent but does it affect bullets?

rapid anchor

Yeah it does

#

Especially arrows

#

How long till animals (wood bison) respawn? It's been a couple of hours but when I returned to the need zone of a high lvl bison I shot hoping it would respawn the herd is still the same size

red gust
#

Reset your game

cosmic jetty
#

Exit completely?

#

Or main menu

cosmic jetty
red gust
#

Exit conpletly

#

That should work

#

That what i do with my grinds and it works

#

Or even searvh up how to get your animals to insta respawb

#

Theres a few vids out there

proper mesa
#

Main menu is fine. Respawns are just janky

#

You also need to shoot about 8-15 wood bison

#

One usually will respawn funky

cosmic jetty
#

I did kill alot

#

Found a Gold lvl 5 so I was hoping he would maybe respawn as a diamond

proper mesa
#

Also wood bison can be solos

#

Chance is if you shot all the males out a herd they could have broke out

cosmic jetty
#

So they can respawn outside of the herd?

proper mesa
cosmic jetty
#

It used to be a bigger herd but now it was just 4 females and 1 male but it was the herd the lvl 5 was in so idk

#

I left lvl 2 males

Lady Legend gives a good explanation on it

#

yeah

And lady legend lowkey not that good for that type of stuff

#

And that's just for herd animals, solos and pair animals are different

wheat edge
#

Like I said, I’m pretty clueless

nimble smelt
#

Yeah that's all there is to it

#

Apart from keeping max levels in your main zones until all your non-main zones are all low levels

wheat edge

Alright thank you

rapid anchor
#

How can I make my gun not move so much when I shoot

#

not like holding my breath

#

like after I shoot my gun is basically pointed at the sky

#

How can I make it so after I shoot, I’m still pointed towards the rest of the deer

@median bough no posting of what ever the hell that was again

I’d kick him ngl

But do you know the answer to my question

Do you have the recoil management perks

Where would I check

In the perks?....

#

People in flinter's server would butcher them alive

If they said that there

nimble smelt

KC's server would tell them using the perks and skills is cheating

#

Ibuy's server would tell them to just download mods to get all of them

hello, im interested in buying the game with my friend, and i had some questions if anyone could answer please, thank you!

So the plan is that I buy the Starter Pack (has tent, ATV, Silver Ridge Peaks reserve). I also want to get the Yukon reserve, bloodhound, and modern weapons dlc.

I know only the host has to buy the reserve dlcs, but how does my friend utilize the other dlcs if he only gets the base game? Should he buy all the same dlcs excluding the reserves? Or is there some that he can use without needing to buy?

should my friend just buy the base game, bloodhound, and modern weapons dlc? im guessing he could use the ATV and tents from my dlc

Does anyone know any good spots on Layton lakes for Mallards? I've set up the blind and decoys in the north part of the river, the Southwest part, and the swamps in the middle. But I never see any flocks, and the ones I do never come down. The only reason I can think of is that I don't have the skill that makes animals come into your calls more often, but I don't know.

Hi!
Gray Wolf Need Zones in theHunter: Call of the Wild - Yukon Valley
Lakes and rivers are the best spots to find them.

The gray wolf's need zone times are:

Drinking (Lakes and Rivers): 11:00 PM to 3:30 AM

Feeding: 3:00 AM to 7:30 AM and again from 7:00 PM to 11:30 PM

Resting: 7:00 AM to 11:30 AM, 11:00 AM to 3:30 PM, and 3:00 PM to 7:30 PM

You should also look a bit further away from the main lakes. Gray wolves are not always exactly on time, so it's a good idea to arrive a little early. The gray wolf is a predator; if you don't use scent eliminator, the pack will track you and hunt you down. Trust me, they will come for you.

Hi!
If you start a new game from the main menu, select New Game. This will completely restart the game from the beginning: Level 0, no money, no XP, and no skills or talents. You will, however, keep your DLC.
Essentially, you'll be starting the game fresh, just like when you first bought it.
Before you do this, though, be sure to back up your Saves folder in case you want to go back to your old game.

For Steam :
C:\Users%user%\Documents\Avalanche Studios\COTW\Saves <-- (Back up the "Saves" folder and all its contents.)

For Epic Games Store :
C:\Users%user%\Documents\Avalanche Studios\Epic Games Store\COTW\Saves (Back up the "Saves" folder and all its contents.)

#

I´ve heard they place stuff like this in the game when a new map is coming up as a teaser... But i cant imagne thats the reason for this painting, the next map is months away isnt it

tribal ledge
#

I think the trophy plaque on NEM is a holdover from when the lodge was accessible in the map

#

before you had to menu to access it

#

so consider it like a lost 'crossover' asset

tribal ledge
near inlet
#

Yes, it could be a teaser, but like you said, I don't see what it could be a reference to!?!?

tribal ledge
#

so on the one hand, if they're doing teasers again that would be awesome - but also they havent in a long while (like 6 or 7 maps or so)

But isnt there any other reason why they might have placed it there

they are easter eggs, but like small fun ones

Hm

I know cotw companion isn't always accurate but it tells me there's only one group (yellow dot) and I couldn't find more than this one group in the marsh either

there should be 2 feedeing zones each marsh

trim echo
#

That feature isn't accurate on the app, I also think the dot represents an area not a group

placid island
#

Ye

placid island

#

4 areas have 2 gathering zones, 40 beavers in one map each

so each group will have 10

Hello im just starting my whitetail grind on revontuli, it's my first grind so i had a few questions, hope it's not too much bother. Right now i don't have interior or exterior zones, i just grind the whole map, not sure how efficient that is.

Firstly, what is considered a low level 2 deer? i consider a low level those that have a max estimate of under 190.

Then, kind of a dumb question, do ground blinds and tree stands have the same effect as tripods? i've seen people who grind choose them most of the time but im not sure if it's because of the terrain or because they are somehow different.

This one i noticed when i just began my grind, but is it normal for animals to change places from one zone to the other? For example i had 1 lvl 1 and two level 2's on a zone and 2 lvl 1's on another, then suddenly i had the first zone with just level 1's and the second with 2 lvl 2's. Is that something i want?

Finally how much of a setback are zones getting deleted? I was dumb a few times and accidentally deleted a few zones, i did found them again, just with different numbers.

I went to the Middle of Layton Lake on the east side in inlet just east of the lookout on the big hill between 12:20 and 2am (where this map says there are some), Didnt hear or see a peep. ive played this game since it came out but havent played much in last 2 years

Does hunting pressure even matter when it comes to beaver hunting? They just stay at the same feeding spot anyways or no?

Hello!

Here are the need zones for the coyote on Layton Lake:
Drink: 12:00 AM - 4:00 AM
Eat: 4:00 AM - 7:00 AM and 5:00 PM - 8:00 PM
Rest: 7:00 AM - 5:00 PM

Tips for Hunting Coyotes and Foxes
Coyotes and foxes are very wary and have sharp senses. They often travel in pairs, a male and a female. When they approach, they will often circle around you, coming in from the left or the right.

You have two main ways to conceal yourself:

Using a hunting tool like a tripod, tree stand, or ground blind.
Lying down on a rock.

In either case, you must use a scent eliminator and remain completely still. Don't position yourself in the line of sight between your caller and the coyote. If the coyote approaches from the north, for example, place yourself to the east or west of the caller.

I recommend using both a Foxpro electronic caller and a manual "Distressed Hare" caller.

hello, i started playing last weekend
does anyone have any tips? Im currently using the Zarza 308. with polymer tips, i dont know much about the game all i know is if i see something i shoot

#

in the lung/heart area

trim echo
#

Well it sounds like you're doing alright, are there any specific tips you need?

thorny canyon
#

i dont have many dlcs is also worth to mention i have bloodhound and modern riflepack i do have some leftover cash to get another dlc and i was thinking vehicle

thorny canyon
trim echo
#

Well that's normal, your cash flow depends on what you're hunting, how many things you're harvesting, and how well you kill the animal

#

And always use an ethical weapon for whatever animal, you get more cash for killing ethically

modern thicket
#

Most people just to get money up with shoot whatever they see, when they see it. Just make sure you getting good, clean, ethical kills

thorny canyon
#

zarza seems ethical for bears deers for sure

#

im at layton lake btw that reserve

trim echo
#

So if you're shooting whitetail, use a weapon that has the class 4 in it

thorny canyon
trim echo
#

But if you shoot a fox with it, it will ruin the harvest check, because fox are class 2

#

And the minimum class for the .308 is 4

thorny canyon
#

what do you recommend for classes below 4

trim echo
#

Well they can be hard to find, even for me lol

trim echo
#

But the .257 is a dlc

thorny canyon
trim echo
#

The newest one, the pump flip and fire pack I think?

#

.223 also works good, I think the modern rifle pack came with one

#

For class one animals, which is all birds and rabbits, any .22 or birdshot works fine, as long as you hit them, vitals don't matter for class 1

thorny canyon

#

Just enjoy the game, unlock stuff as you go, you'll get all you need soon

And have a good time

thorny canyon

#

Oh and one last tip, take your time too, don't run around like a madman

thorny canyon
trim echo
#

I mean it works but if you really want to make more money and kill more animals then just walk around, look around, and just take your time

trim echo
#

No problem, if you have any other questions feel free to ask!

# thorny canyon hello, i started playing last weekend does anyone have any tips? Im currently us...

Hey!

Woof! Where do I even begin?

First, you need to know that you can't just use any weapon and ammo. Each animal has a difficulty class, for example, 1 - Trivial, 9 - Legendary, and the top one, 10 - Great One. These values can be different for males and females, and in most cases, only males can produce a trophy.

With that in mind, you have to choose the right weapon and ammo. There's no point in trying to kill a bison with a .22 LR. Always aim for vital organs.

The Bloodhound dog is pretty much essential at the beginning because you'll often only wound an animal and will have to track it for 600m.

For money, doing missions is the most profitable way to go. There's so much to cover, you'll have to ask questions as you go.

Your best tool is patience. This isn't a game where you shoot everything that moves; you'll have to be patient and strategic.

To know which weapon and ammo to use:
Go to an armory - store - ammunition. In the ammunition description, you'll find the classes they're for.

#

Another question

#

I dont really undersrand how the zeroing perk works i do know i have to toggle it with F

#

How much does an average whiteltail deer worth i feel like im doimg something wrong there or is 400-600 realistic?

near inlet
#

Are you on PC or console?

What we mean by "ethical hunting."

near inlet
#

👍

#

Yes, you absolutely must master zeroing.

You have three zeroing points. You have to activate the skill for the third one, the long-range 300m zero, otherwise you'll only have the two lower ones, which are usually 50m - 100m or 75m - 150m. For bows, it's 20m, 40m, and 60m.

To explain it as simply as possible: For your shot to be as accurate as possible, you must be physically at the same distance as your zeroing point. If your zeroing point is 50m and you are physically at 50m, your bullet will go to the exact right spot. Let's say you're physically at 75m; your bullet will go a little lower.

This is crucial for shots at 150m - 300m.

near inlet
#

You also have to master the art of camouflage, which involves activating skills, clothing, your behavior, and understanding the animal's senses. Several missions require you to get very close to the animal, within 20-30 meters.

trim echo
thorny canyon
#

I lose it easily

#

Even if its not fleeing

trim echo
#

Like you have trouble following tracks?

thorny canyon
#

No no following the animal itself

trim echo
#

You can change the color of your active track in the settings by the way if that would help you see them

thorny canyon
#

Thats a good tip thi

trim echo
#

Oh gotcha, all you can really do is go slow and follow it's tracks until you spot it

thorny canyon
#

Tho

#

Like i spotted a bear a few mins ago

#

Behind trees and lost it

trim echo
#

That happens sometimes, you just gotta watch where it was or where it seemed like it was going and hope to spot it again

#

Or go to where you spotted it and follow the tracks like I said

#

On the map you can see where the last animal you spotted was

#

It'll be a green circle with an animal icon in the middle of it

thorny canyon
#

I will keep that in mind thanks

#

A lot

#

It was a ton of info for now haha

#

Thanks everyone

near inlet
#

Following an animal is not a good technique; it will hear you, see you, and, even worse, if the wind is blowing in its direction, it will smell you from up to 150m away. It's better to find need zones and set up there to hunt it when it arrives.

Lakes and rivers are your best bet because you'll have a clear line of sight, and almost all animals drink there, with a few exceptions. The next best need zone is where they eat, as they are standing up and not lying in the grass.

trim echo
#

While this is true, stalking an animal outside of zones works perfectly fine as long as you pay attention and go slow

#

Really it's just however you like to hunt and play the game

#

Some folks like to just run and gun and that works for them lol

thorny canyon
trim echo
#

Blinds, tree stands, hunting stands, or just hiding in cover

#

Some trees and bushes will hide you from animals, meaning they won't see you until they are on top of you

near inlet
#

yes and you have some skills for that too, for camouflage

thorny canyon
#

What is a good skill tree setup?

trim echo
#

It really depends on your playstyle

#

There isn't a wrong or right way

#

Unlock whatever you feel would benefit you and would be useful

thorny canyon
#

I see thank you

near inlet
#

It depends on what you're hunting, the weapon you're using, the location, day or night, and the skills you've unlocked. You'll need to discover your own hunting style—rifle, shotgun, handgun, or bow—as all of these factors come into play.

thorny canyon
#

I felt like i ruined my skillpoints snd got scared when i saw how expensive it is to reset

#

Im def a rifler

trim echo
#

I think most are

#

Some of the shotgun and handgun skills are really nice though

#

Like the faster reload and reload while sprinting stuff

#

The archery skills if I remember right are exclusively for bows

thorny canyon
#

So some shotgun perks might be good for rifle?

trim echo
#

Yeah

#

Some are for all weapons despite being shotgun or handgun skills

#

It's kinda confusing lol

near inlet
trim echo
#

Yeah for sure

#

I'd unlock that one if you can, unless you are far more skilled at managing recoil, unlike me

thorny canyon
#

tho it wont hurt

near inlet
#

lollll That too there is a skill, to be able to hold your breath longer

#

Recoil is what happens when you shoot. It's the force of the shot that pushes your sight upward. Less recoil means you'll be less disoriented after your shot. Imagine if you activate the skill that lets you fire both barrels simultaneously for 15 seconds—imagine the recoil with two barrels, lollll

Imagine this: The guy gets home after a hunt with a cast on his right arm and a dislocated shoulder from the recoil. He's got six stitches over his right eyebrow from the scope's recoil—it was bleeding everywhere—and a fractured tailbone and concussion from falling backward and hitting his head on a rock. I can just picture his wife trying to hold back her laughter.

i will be honest i have had this game since a long time

#

but i never played it

#

i found a new job and a colleague told me about hunting

that he goes and etc

i have never been hunting irl but i would love to

not with him just an interesting thing with friends

and i heard its very expensive

Yeah some deer are habitualized to humans so they don't really mind being close to ya

#

The deer I grew up with are another story though lol

#

actually its not just the hunting for me

#

its just seeing wildlife

#

i love animals but i wouldnt mind hunting them either

#

i love them but i also love to eat them

#

I'm the same way, I got a job in conservation because of my love of our fellow animals

#

And hunters are some of the best conservationists

#

The ethical, legal ones I mean, obviously

thorny canyon
#

honestly i have been thinking of learning more in school

#

im 21 years old and im not happy with the job i currently have

#

something with wildlife would be amazing

#

but im not sure where to start

#

or what i could learn

trim echo
thorny canyon
#

for me to get a job that i like

trim echo
#

Going to school would've been easier though

#

But more expensive

near inlet
#

Well, it's just like any sport—the price reflects the passion. Real hunting, when you factor in everything, can cost tens of thousands of dollars. You have to consider the weapons, accessories, ATV, and in some cases, the dog and decoys.

That's why many people go to outfitters. They only have to bring their weapons, clothing, and accessories. The outfitter provides the rest, like vehicles and blinds.

Here in Canada, it's possible to hunt and camp on Crown land, which is public land. In that case, you're on your own in the wilderness.

trim echo
#

Yeah it can get pricey

#

But you can hunt just as efficiently with a $300 rifle and some basic clothes

#

No callers, decoys, blinds, anything

#

I hunt in jeans and a basic flannel or button down shirt and Walmart boots lol

near inlet
#

I'm 60 years old, and knowing what I know now, I should have gone into a profession that connects with nature, like a game warden, a nature or hunting guide, or a biologist. I would be in nature 24/7.

That's an awesome idea

#

You could make a full gym outta faux rocks and fill it with plants, make it look natural

#

I'd buy a membership lol

Why not? You'll always have your web design certification if you don't like it or if there's no work available in that field. You'll always have your certification.

# dry path How do I setup on this zone I need to shoot it down

Hi!

First, I notice that the area's alert level is low, indicated by the dark circle. It will turn purple for a medium alert and light pink for a high alert. This is caused by hunting. The higher the alert level of a zone, the less likely animals are to come back. If the alert level is low, they might return to the same spot or go a little farther away. If they don't show up at that spot, you'll need to find a new one.

As for the rest, it depends on your distance from the hunting stand, the weapon you're using, and so on. Keep in mind that it will be a bit more difficult to attract them since the area is already at a low alert level.
From my perspective, the best hunting conditions are during the day.
First, I prefer a watering hole since I have an unobstructed view. Second, I look for a feeding zone because the animals are standing up. Last, a resting zone is the hardest since they are lying down in the grass and rocks. I like to lie prone, as it's much more stable at a zeroing distance of 75m - 150m and it's crucial at 300m, but I try as much as possible to be physically at the zeroing distance.

But really, it all comes down to personal preference.

In Askiy Ridge I spotted an albino (or eggwhite?) Grey Wolf in the green area on this map. I checked the red areas during drink time and saw no sign of him. Would he potentially be further out or should I spend more time checking more of the river? I am hyped that he is there but I've got to find him again...

If you're doing hm and are currently shooting down exteriors, keep it stacked so your map produces higher levels

If not then just blast it

How do you 'quick kill' a brown bear? can't seem to get my shots in right (i know where the heart is, but always hit a lung...skill issue?) will two quick lungshots also work?

Double lung could work

Hello!

From what I understand about how vital organs work, in order for an animal to pass the harvest rules (Ethical Hunting), you need to hit a lung, the heart, or both. If you only hit one lung, you'll get the harvest, but the animal will die further away. If you hit both lungs, it won't go as far. And if you hit the heart, it drops like a sack of potatoes.

If I shoot an animal from the side, it's harder to hit the heart because the leg or shoulder is often in the way. Of course, if your weapon is very powerful, the shoulder won't impact the outcome.

Personally, if I absolutely have to hit the heart on a mission, I prefer to approach the animal stealthily from the front to get direct access to the heart between its two front legs. I physically position myself at my chosen zeroing distance. For example, if I want to kill the animal at 75 meters, I get into a prone position at 75 meters since it's more stable. There are also skills to stabilize your aim.

I hope that helps.

Liver, neck bones, and brain also count as vitals (though it’s basically impossible to hit brain without also hitting skull, which will fail the “intact trophy” check on most animals)
-# notable exceptions to the “skull is trophy” rule are alligators and crocodiles, where apparently a brainshot is a preferred method of taking them down IRL. Also females of most (but not all) antlered or horned species, tho that’s due to them not having a trophy to damage in the first place

#

Also on class 1 animals, the entire body is considered “vital”

guys i just dounloadet the game at wat map should i play and wheare are some good spots?

where do i shoot so i hit a vital organ on a animal

acoustic umbra
#

You can get a brain shot but it's a little harder, I just stick to the lung shots.

#

Or a heart shot.

👍
This is exactly how I like to take down a bear. There's a mission, by the way, where you have to be less than 20 or 30 meters from a bear and take it down with a single shot to the heart. When I was at the right distance, I whistled. It stood up, wondering what the noise was, and I got a shot to the heart. It let out an unholy scream before falling 😲 , and I got a shiver from that, too. 😂

That said

#

Lots of belly sneaking and minding the wind can get you in decent range

#

And you can make them stand for easy heart/lung/liver access

Anyone have any idea what’s going on with my mule deer askiy ridge Great one grind I’m around 900 kills in all my zone were shot down everything was going smooth roughly a hundred kills ago almost all my lakes besides 2 are all 2s and I’m only getting around 3-5 shooter bucks per run

#

Why do people use slower firing rifles instead of something like the modern rifle pack?

frosty moth
#

because the only semi autos in the game are 223, 308, 30 06, 300 win mag and 7.62x39 and because like bolt actions are substantially cooler

#

and semi autos are boring

#

it's not like you're trying to fight a war, you're hunting deer

There isn’t necessarily an advantage to them as much as the advantage of a semi-auto rifle doesn’t really matter in many situations, particularly those where you’re only taking one shot anyways

#

Now if you’re trying to wipe out a group of hogs or something, that’s where the faster fire rate really comes in handy

I'm quite new to this game. I have about 60 drink zones discovered for moose. Would it be ok to hop tents to take out the males at this point or will it not work properly? in terms of herd management.

When i shoot something it dosent react (i know i hit it), it like dosent fall down for a sec or jump around, doesn’t make a move. Even if i hut vital. Every animal does this. A few seconds after, it sprints away as usually when getting shot. It just skips the reaction part

Guys the community challenge is bugged for me, or maybe I'm doing something wrong? I first hunted mule deer in srp with the compound bow but it didn't track any progress towards the challenge. Then I restarted the game and hunted whitetail on revontuli with another bow but it still doesn't track
