thank you š
no worries, itās happened to me before so i know from experience
can i get dlcs for free?
No
does the layton lake mission bull elk have some kind of special quality that makes him have thicker flesh??? i had a perfect frontal shot on him using 40 penetration ammo. iāve downed 1000kg bison with the same gun and ammo. and yet he somehow still didnāt have a vital organ hit. iāve had to reload 4 times so far because no matter how perfect my angle is, i can never seem to get a vital organ hit.
Nope. Theyāre built like a normal well elk
and this isnāt me being inexperienced with elk either, iāve harvested tons of elk
i just donāt get it
why is he so different
why am i struggling with him so much when i never struggle with elk
especially frontal shots, those are never a problem with how much penetration i have
bro finally istg
How many times does a great One show up on loading screens?
errr I ran into a bug where I can straight up walk into animals and shoot them
like I walked up to a bear and shot him in the face 3 times
and this has consisted accross multiple restarts and multiple uninstall and reinstalls
I have no clue how this happened
first time I ran into it was in multiplayer
its also weird because onloy small game can detect me
like rabbits run from me but bear and dear don't
i just killed like 20 Saltwater Crocodile's and i still have not gotten the stuff
im literally standing ontop of a deer right now
there's 2 loading screens with a g1 on it
1 in NEM with a whitetail and?
tahr on sundar
Cool ty
What I did was HM the coast and then use feeders to hunt the swamp. You get a bunch of big rares that way
wait does it have to be rares or just normal
I got like 3 normal 8s in a row yesterday
So yeah you just get big ones
ok so like what kg
Depends on how well you HM your coast
also i am on the beach
Yeah thats the coast. If you shoot all of them down to be level 4 and below your will get what I have
But you can go even more extreme
ok
Thats a lot less than i thought ngl
also i'm stuck at 88% on the Community Challenge: Protect the Bunnies
It's a COMMUNITY challenge
The progress is across the whole community
Not just you
No problem broš
Maybe just keep them. How many shooters you got now?
Or did you already figured it out?
Can someone help me get my first G one and Iām going for a G1 moose with the 300 mag tactical
I have 19 shooters and I think like 5 that aren't managed yet
and I got so bored of hunting the same 3 lakes over and over and they just respawned exactly the same as they were before
Ahhh alright pretty good
Did you shoot the stacked ones i guess right?
Yeah i know. Thats how it goes lol
I was hoping with all these 9s and 8s they would at least come back as 5s
ill check all my zones rq and tell u how many and which levels aren't herd managed
probably because you managed down everything but your main zones ?
the game kinda have a "global score" for a species on a map, which varies a bit
And shooting only big stuff typically leads to getting a mix of equal size and/or slightly smaller/bigger animals
yeah ik but it pisses me off that I have a few animals that aren't managed
It doenst really matter. I have the same for red deer. Got like 10 level 5s and 3 solos that are above level 5s (i shot them by accident while grindingā¦)
And still have dimerate of 1/10
so ur saying that's fine as well?
then ill shoot my stacked ones now
My 8the grind for now. But i switched to parque now because of bigger population
super rare in 49 kills š
I mean. Get me a exact number on all shooters and the ones you still need to manage down?Then i will say a opinion what you can do
Got a bit lucky. And like 3 g1s in 400 kills
Before this
But HM is doing its thing. I hooe on parque it will even be better then this
its a 6, a 7 and a few 5s
holy
I got my first g1 while stacking
Maybe try to get those level 6 and 7 to low level 5s. But how about those other 5s? Are they low level 5s aswell?
Thats good. Nice
I got about 6-8 wolves over level 6 outside my main zones in Yukon (only one being a max est 7)
and i got a 1/10 to 1/15 kill rate by max level
can anyone play
what i mean, is I left a few over what is typically suggested : 5's and lower
Alright
Alright
I normally recommend get all to level 4s and the last 5-10 to low level 5s
Or try atleast
yeah
well level 6 is the most common for wolves
then level 5 and 7
and then i would say 8 is tad more frequent than 4 initially
Yeah but is like level 4 for wolves more difficult to get then level 4 for red deer?
Thats what i meant
Male wolves goes to 3, red deer to 2
your level 6 wolf is your average 5 red deer
Yeah indeed
Level 5 is most frequent for reds
im shooting my stacked ones now
Alright
What i should do is count every kill, dime ect from now on
So you know your dimerate
I want to really know too
so once all my stacked ones are gone ill track?
Yes
Like this
app name?
Its something i like to do though. So its your choice
Cotw companion app
Ye
ill do it i wanted to do it anyways
my rare rate is so ahh I have 14 piebalds, 1 mela and that's it now
i just count in my head every 20 kills then multiply by the number
or go in solo mp, do the shoot 16 animals
and keep tabs of how many time i did that challenge
so if i done it 4 times with red foxes, i know i shot 64
Keep me update on the rate.
yup
Anyone got some whitetail feed zones
for layton
bc im bored of my other maps and i want to try out a treestand with a bow on them
how many rotations should I do before its decently accurate?
also I dont get how to use the app š
i think anywhere on the left side
is feed area
left half*^
to be more specific
Just 1 orso. I always just do the after all my stacked level 9s are shot down
You figured it out?
nah I js tracked in my notes app for now
im gonna do a few more rotations because I keep spooking some idk i cant hit vitals rn for some reason
Have you got tents in that area
or a tent where the shelter is closer to that area
Shaky shaky
i dont hunt whitetail on layton
same
i hunt meese
I have also a document in word with all my grinds
my whitetail is on rev
well ive wanted to try hunting with the rangefinder
and i want to do it with whitetail
g1 grind?
bruh one of my shooters genuinely js respawned as a 2
i cant anymore bruh
Leave it
Its good
Dont worry
I also had like 3 level 3s spawn in last 1000 kills. Is just how it is
And like 6 level 4s
I do have to worry about my diamond ratio tho
maybe im just unlucky rn
ill do a few more rotations in a few hours to check if im unlucky or not
this is it rn šš„
ik i cant rlly judge it yet but still
if dia ratio should be 1/10 and im at 1/35 rn it's kinda bad
1/10 rate takes hundreds of kills of herd management. 35 kills is like 2 runs.
yeah it was 2 runs but im already herd managed šš
I started counting after I was herd managed
Hey guys. Just gettin started on game heard about heard management. Wondering if any veteran hunters can help me set my map up and show me how to do it so i can do all my maps eventually
Maybe youāre just on a dry streak or youāre not actually very managed
I had all 4s, a few 5s, one 6 and a 7 that weren't my shooters
so I think im on a dry streak
Hello! Is it possible to grind whitetail using water and feed (with feeder) zones? Iām relatively new and grinding on Layton lakes. Iām also having a hard time deciding to stay with it on Layton or unlock revontuli coast and try there. I just donāt want my work on Layton to go to waste. Thanks!
Does a dead zone become active after a while and does a high pressure go i to mid low or none?
they just decrease over time
they won't be at their feed zones if you just spooked them by shooting and also drink zone hunting is a lot more effective because its more open
if your herd managed then stay on layton if not swap to revontuli because its a lot easier
How long? I have a high pressure and im scared
So dime ratio includes trolls aswell
1/17 is actually amazing hm lol, why would you think thats bad?
Remember no hm is 1/100
yeah but for red deer its bad
One in 17 is about 6 times better than normal
lowkey I dont even care if im properly managed I got my great one while managing lmao
1 in 17 is great for any species lol
but im still looking for a super rare albino
Nice
a good red deer management is 1/10 and I took like 20 hours to manage so if its improper now Ill be rlly pissed
Trust me on that anything below 1 in 20 requires great hm skills
1 in 10 is near perfect possible hm
Near
I accidentally opened my server to multi-player a year ago and they shot my diamonds and some other bs so I had to manage all over again š
Rip
yup that's what I was hoping for
Go for it if you want but all im saying is its already better than most people's hm
and also im still looking for a 272 red deer
Good luckš
yeah I mean now im not gonna stack again so i just hope its gonna be close to 1/10 after a few more rotations
ty I already have a 270 but max would be cool
Btw the theoretical max for red deer is about 274
Like moose max is ā 300 but not exactly
273 is the biggest ever shot
Yes but much much rarer
crazy I thought 272
If im not mistaken a 270 red deer is like a 1/250 dimes
270+gets rarer and rarer the bigger it is
What is big for Mule deer on the current scoring for them
340 something is max for mule deer dimes
I figured it was way lower I have a few 500 ones from a long time ago but I shot a max weight one grinding for. Y first G1 and it was in the low 300s
HEEEEHEEEEE
For me i got 5 270+ in 300 diamond kills on red deer
How is your dimerate now?
can anyone help?
i found this great one fox after 1816 kills, but then i exited to the main menu and set it to make a video of it in daylight
when i exited the zone disappeared and total harvests decreased from 50264 to 50215
š¤š¤šš
holy bro 270 mela that's probably one of the rarest red deer ever
didnt grind yet im with my family
ok 2 questions how do u use the flashlight if u know on pc and how do u not get heard animals flee from me at 250m when im walking
and im not even walking through the bushes and i use spray
Yeah probably it is. Never seen a super rare 270+ posted either.
just got it last week
Alright
You need the skills in the tree were yo can spend your skill and perk points. Watch a guide on youtube
And for me L is to turn on and of flashlight (dont know if i did change it ever, dont think so but yeah)
does the green cone on compass mean when im facing it im going with the wind or im going opposite of it? which is better cause i know scent plays a big part in this game
Wherever the green cone is pointing is the direction the wind is blowing. Wherever it widens towards the end of the compass is where itās going towards.
in that case it is better to go towards the cone?
i have maxed out skill
You have backpack or wrong skills choosen?
Oh it is L i dont think it worked last tiome
Youāll want the cone pointing behind wherever youāre facing. You want the wind to be blowing in your face
no backpack
and what skill are we talking about exactly
yes all
aight tahnks anyway i js caught a silver and gold moose lets gooo
yall i find the main story kinda difficult is it neccessary to finish it? did yall do it and how long is it
Guys I get a rare every 140 boars. Do others get this many too or am I just this lucky on this grind
Does anyone know the reason why after the new update, when I entered The Hunter, it didn't log into my account? Does anyone know how to fix it? I would be very grateful.
What is best map for boars
You pretty lucky
Torr imo
What
Torr. Scotland, in my opinion
Yeah are you playing on PC?
Yea laptop
Oh I play PS5 sorry
Why can't we play
Can any one show me their wolf g1 grind map on Alaska please I canāt find any zones
Thank you
Does anyone know if the barrel feeders are fixed?
Main story on which map?
50/50 still. Some have issues, some don't
Thank you for the answer! I asked in 100 others dcās
I saw š well at least one other, mine are touchy, what system do you play on?
Pc
is it good?
but is it like rare or smth?
cuz i saw many goats and thats the first time i see an 5
no, not rare. just a diamond
level 5 goats arent like rareee rare but they are tough to make diamond so
anything that goes up to 5 for a diamond is usually annoying to get
i rather go find 9s or 10s lol
not really
for me it is
having trouble with the game crashing before it even launches (steam), anyone have any pointers?
Can anyone join call and give me tips on my mule deer map
indeed
agree but when u have everything but the 5s
lolll
you're going to drink zones it's not hard š
gng is arguing for no reason lmfao
no one is arguing dw
What is with folks thinking people talking is arguing lol
Hmmmmmmmmmmm
Is there a way I can get my progress back my friend hit new game on my xbox
Should I get napal because it looks fun with lots of different biomes
U have to grind it out again RIP
but it saves your trophies I think
yo
soo
ive played this game for quite some time
and im thinking of purchasing some dlcs
im a big fan of bird hunting
and hog hunting
ive got some of these
and i dont know what to get for a next dlc
any ideas?
pointer and revontuli and salzweisen no hogs on them but many birds there isnt really a good bird and hog map
any gun pack needed or do they have good shotguns in those maps?
thats ok im more a fan of birds
the duck and cover pack i think whichever of the packs give you the waterfowl open top blinds
the 12 ga cacciatore you can buy in the game might be the best
The shotgun from Ireland is very good and that map is good for hogs
alrighht
definitely not the pointer...
Retriever is the way to go for bird hunting, pointer is pretty useless for them
oh yeah
ya i know you hate the pointer i find them flushing them right toward me nice i love my pointer the dog i use the most followed by retriever but i like upland birding a bit more
i have all the dogs but its however you like to play
You can flush birds just by walking up to them... no need for a dog to do it much slower
Does anyone know some tips for a G1 on a wolf and if so, whatās the best map
1 tip i guess is wait for a minute after spotting all the wolves and see if there is another one slowly walking if your hunting drink zones
and what about the map?
I dont remember the name but it is the first one pretty much like when u start a new game
layton lakes
the missions arent neccessary
but you get the opportunity to get a diamond black bear
elk
and coyote
How big is the main story
if u get medved u also can get a albino bear
BEAR
BEAR wooooo
I hate the mission i have to do
āThe client wonders if there is another fur color of BEARā on god it took me an hour to find a beat in mt kraken im NOT doing that again
lol
the problem with medveds missions are they are hella spread apart smtimes and alot of photos
wtf
Idk why vro
can anyone help me understand the RNG?
if yesterday I killed 48 foxes and the Great One appeared, but due to a bug my entire work from yesterday disappeared, should it appear in the same place today after 48 kills?
No
It's RNG, it's purely random
Could take 10 kills, could take 10 thousand
now do I start from 0 how did it disappear?
or do I continue from 1800?
when you spawn a great one, yes you start a new grind
but if it gets deleted, is it like my progress from yesterday never happened?
It didn't sync....
so in the end the great one didn't show up either, because it didn't sync
idk what you mean about it didnāt save, did you not close the game out properly? iāve never heard of great ones disappearing anytime lately, you sure itās not still on your map?
Itās probably on your map, just traveling around! Search a grid pattern and get bigger and bigger with your search until you can get him.
Or wait where you saw him
unfortunately it's not on my map because I lost the last 50 kille and there are a total of 5 pairs (10 foxes) on my Fox Island
but I hope it was coded and maybe they'll appear again like yesterday
I really hope soš¤šš„¹
i saw what he sent yesterday that would break my heart
poor fox, lost in the void, never going to be harvested
hopefully it just spawns again brošš»
hello where can i gruind on hirschfelden/rancho pheasants? ty
Terrible idea. Salz isnt that expensive
Yesterday together I shoot a Yeti in Cotw is it rare?
Guys is there a place where boar like to hide in scotland? I only have small males in my exteriors but my diamond rate is still terrible so there must be hiding some big boar
ty
can anyone help me in spain wich are the best spots for red deers
Well there arenāt Yetis in this game so Iād say yeah
I ran trough the entire map to answer your question. Only the boot shaped lake was decent
Bro it was a jokeā¦
?
Wth do you mean you shot a yeti?
They're hiding in the tower of the castle
Completely forgot to check that
HM on scotland is not ideal
Bro I said it was a joke?
because there are not a lot of zones to begin with
Not really. Its like less than 50 I think
Oh even better
but other maps are better for HM because there are more zones
so scotland is harder to get high dime rate
once i get my photo sending perms back i will send my setup
well ill just PM u
Yeah but look at Cuatro. They are everywhere there. Looks like hell
is it allowed to join hacked servers?
Allowed but frowned upon
ah ok do they still exist or patch? i tried to find one because ive never seen one but i think they dont exist anyways
They do. As for as I know the devs have not done anything about them.
Yeah just yesterday there was someone who posted pics about one
he surely got banned no?
It wasnt in this server but here you go
Nope. 0 moderation of multiplayer servers as far as I know
crazy i also want to see one of these animals with my own eyes
i only have 4 diamonds
what do you play on
ps5
According to reddit there are no modded servers on PS5. I also believed it was a PC only thing
aha so theres no chance anyways ill find one
Nope. But none of those trophies are unachievable. YOu can get them. Its just time. I can help you if you need any tips
i got no time thats the problem behind itā¦
I would be happy to give you something if you were on xbox. What is it that you are specifically after?
a diamond moose or like a rare one from a g1 i just dream haha
I'll send you a private message
Just hunt your own maps at animals drink times, youāre going to find a trophy of some sort. Plus, itās more rewarding to actually get a trophy through working for one than getting one that was hacked in.
That part. Everyoneās got their own trophies on a new map. Ya just gotta find em. Past that, itās about shooting and letting things respawn for changes at good ish.
Thats exactly what I told them
Plenty of folks have just a couple hours a week they can play shrug itās still worth playing legitimate honestly
It int. Its possible on console
both playstation and xbox
Im 100% sure its not possible on xbox
Hey I tried to invite my friend and it keeps on saying the host is no longer present even though Iām in game
Why do you always have to say this cringe shat at the end? Be normal dude
you're awfully worked up
It can be hacked but its extremely difficult but u didnt hear that from me
Thanks for the info
Btw its most definitely hacked
what is?
That one pic alone has 3 piebalds and 3 albinos in one herd
Oh yeah. That guy was a PC player and we were joking about it
Mind you albino is 0.05% and piebald is 0.5%
You can cause its sourced from an app
Personal file searching/editing isn't allowed though
Nope. 2 different mods have called it data mined info and made a big deal about it
You can as them about it
they changed the rules lol
finally
perfectly fine as long as you get the stuff from outside sources and not your own
Yeah I told them how its crazy that it can be on the wiki, on reddit, in the app and official partners can talk about it but God forbid we talk about it in the Discord
which, is pretty easy to get anyways
And they replied with " no more talk about it"
like a billion ways to find them lol
fr
wiki, nexus, etc
If its sourced from a app like cotw companion its allowed
Just cant talk about modding the game and such
The server
Btw you can do the math on the rares if you want
Its cotw companion btwš
Yeah i know these things I was just flamed a month ago for talking about it
It happens
You do have to be very careful about anything related to the games mechanisms
As far as I know its the norm stuff and specifically fur chances and max scores if its not personally sourced
That are allowed
The other parts of the code and how to manipulate them is the forbidden partš
max scores?
those aren't affected by rule 9
because they're not obtained through the games code
This is ok
Its probably cause they fall under the "common knowledge" category
yeah cuz they're not sourced from the game's code
That was a month ago, its only been a little while ago they loosened up
What's rule 9
I kinda don't understand the trophy system. Do I only have 10 spots to display at the trophy lodge? Because that makes no sense considering how much space for displays those lodges haveš
Do you own any lodges or just Layton lakes
Well the Layton lodge only has spots for speck Base-game trophies while the DLC ones have a lot that you can place any trophies freely
If your trying to place a big animal like a buffalo there are less places for those
I get that, but my trophy manager says 10/10 spots
That's saved trophies
nevermind, yeah I get it now
You can taxidermy as many as you want but you can only save 10 for free that you gotta tax later
so the trophies page has like a lot of space and the other one only 10
I was just confused the trophies page said 10/10 and not like something like 10/100 which would make more sense
so I thought I am already at the limit or something^^
If you cant afford to taxidermy it. You save it in the 10/10 list, if you taxidermy them it goes to your trophy list
hey does anyone have any tips to get higer rafel socre ?
Like higher level animals?
Shoot animals with a rifle
2-6 class
Shoot them vitals with the right class fun
Hey everyone question, does anyone know if the anmials in cotw just walk a random path everytime to there zone or do they follow the same set path everytime
Not exactly the same no
But because their zones don't move they come from the same direction and stuff
I got a path some hogs are using and I wanna set a stand there im just trying to figure if there gonna be on it all the time
So if they come from the west chances are they will always come from that way?
Ye
You can also call them in during the time they should be walking there that has a good change to work
Oh okay ill try that to
Any tips to actually killing animals
spot them before they spot you
Obviously I know that
But besides that
Like any tips on finding animals
And stuff
Got it thank you
Ok so I found all my moose drink zones, so do I just choose 16 zones and start managing them down and do that until I only have like 10 shooting zones?
Question im getting my first dlc what should it be?
that depends solely on what you like to hunt
i was told askiy ridge is that a good pick?
yeah, itās a very nice map, a lot of the community likes it, also if you have multiplayer you can join multiplayer hunts and try out maps as long as someone in the session owns the map
would u maybe wanna play?
nah i donāt have multiplayer, always preferred single player myself
any tips for finding warthogs on vurhonga? been wandering for a few hours now and havent seen or heard a single one
^ you want to hunt near the edge of the map for them
damn the map that I checked previously was wrong then, thanks
Gonna start a hog grind soon
If you buy the game can you play multiplayer
Bc I don't have the game bought I just play it through Xbox gamepass
To have multiplayer what do you have to do?
yeah if you play on xbox you need gamepass unfortunately
no, i donāt pay for gamepass so i dont have multiplayer, its a scam in my opinion
Genuinely then just add to to the basic package
correct, you still have to have gamepass to play online
30$ game and you have to spend this much money
thatās not up to the game devs, thatās an xbox thing
yes, same for playstation you need playstation plus
So it's not like that on PC?
iām not sure about pc
Pc is free multi if your on steam
Itās a great game besides multi lol I play solo like 99% of the time
I guess that relies on you actually having a desire to play a hunting game though
Multiplayer isn't worth it anyway, always someone screwing up the maps
Some of my best trophies have come off multiplayer (Iām on Xbox)
Yep and the host no longer has access to that trophy, i mean congrats, just my personal opinion
But I scour my maps for initials, not everyone does
A: not always the case. When they leave their map no longer updates
B: itās their choice if they want to risk putting their map up for others.
Not going to argue that, I'm just saying. My opinion. Whether you agree or not it's mp isn't worth it
Alright
Hello does anyone know if this epic game will ever be available on MacBook?
canāt you download it thru steam?
I can but it says windows only
Should I try or?
Will it work if I download it on steam on a Mac?
i have no clue personally, but hopefully someone can give some tips, goodluck!
if anyone has any idea on this, please let me know.
thanks
No. We dont have any of that
We can just buy and play the game.
i have the bloodhound it is level 30 companion which are the best traits
where in silver ridge peaks should i go to look for mountain goats? they have no drink zone

and you get access to 300+ games
and cloud play
tbf like only a handful are actually good
thats op based
i enjoy many gamepass games
and cloudplay is available for most
so i can get my OG games downloaded that arent cloud playable
and the others i just cloud play
but to use cloudplay you lowkey want to have ethernet because its kind of connectivity based on the āexperienceā
when i had trash internet i couldnt cloudplay anything it was literally 1fps
the best Dlc for start for me its gonna be dog?
i mean i donāt have any Dlc
And i got on steam Everly Dlc from 20% to 50% Discovery
Discount
nah
get hunter's choice so you have some better guns
How hard is it to move your account from xbox one to x series i don't want to lose my progress/lodges
is there someone around on PC/steam to show me how to setup goose hunting in Hirschfelden, i got all the dlc but the geese won't come down to the decoys.
So i buy the hunter weapon and i get for free or i must but for money?
They're free ingame
okay thanks but i donāt know what to gun buy
Modern rifle is good?
Very good
is the best Dlc for the 1 time?
Huh?
I make like 1k a year but not more bc of school so that's a good chunk of money if I buy that
I mean is this the best Dlc?
I buy this but idk what is best weapon to choice
I make like 720$ a year
Just from allowance
The hell couldve gone in in jjs

How to check pictures
I have a pic of my first animal
lowkey lets move to general

since we just chatting about game
Ok, i'm assuming the multiplayer bug for Ducks and Geese still persists even now. It seems if there's two players within 300m of each other, ducks/geese refuse to land, and come in alerted, attentive, and alarmed, even with full decoy spreads and callers going. If the players are side by side in the same blind, it seems ducks refuse to even spawn.
Is there a known fix for this or is duck/geese hunting forever going to be single player only??
Does the mineral lick feeder work on wild boars too? (it lists sheep, goat, bison, buffalo, deer and antelope. I dont know if boar count as scavengers or one of these for the context of food lures)
I donāt think licks work (but you can check by putting them on the map) but I know the scent feeders work
can somone help mei n the hunter classic

Can you do vc
no. But we can go into DMs if you want
Ok
Best dlc map to buy?
Just be more than 300-400yds away from someone elseās setup. Iāve been able to successfully waterfowl hunt on the same map as others, you just canāt be close to eachother or the birds tweak.
I am grinding for G1 wolf, I have feeders at their drink zones so I can hunt during the daylight. Is it worth to HM them? I have 4 of my zones with at least 1 lvl 9 or 8 rn
I didn't know if before I shoot them if I should go try and manage my other zones or not
why are my groups just getting smaller? like ill shoot a buck and the size of the group will go down by one and it wont respawn
Fallow?
i have issues with multiplayer on xbox theres always this notification that the host i want to connect to is no longer online
any tipps?
yea fallow
They broken apparently. they jump like hella lot
around the map
Almost never stay in their zones when you shoot them
damn okay
should i continue with them or just switch to like red deer or something?
I need tips as a level of 11
I mean if you have a setup on red deer i would switch. But its your choice.
By my opinion fallow are really annoying to grind now because they do that
^
alright ill just grind fallow until all the bucks bug out and leave (which they hopefully wont anytime soon) then switch to red deer afterwards since im only tryna get money and xp not like diamonds or GO
ty for helping out
Check your exterior herd zones. they are probably bounced towards those zones.
Red deer pay good though
so just go aroudn and hunt the zones i dont use when they bounce around?
You can at least look if they bounced into exterior zones. And go from there if you have that info
You doing Herd management on them?
Would anyone wanna take a look at my grey wolf grind and help me out on what I should do?
kinda, i just shoot the biggeest one since i heard that spawns more diamonds and such
yeah it increase it a little bit if you just do that
Precisely this
Always a good idea to check em if youāre missing shooters.
It's meh
compared to the rest of the dlcs at least
So what the best dlc weapon?
What is the easiest map to get a diamond black grouse on? I need it for the land lubbers multimount
Well if youāre looking for high density then go to Salzweisen.
Thanks
Anyone tryna play?
That's not a fix though is it
Supposedly it's been broken since one of the DLC's, and plenty of DLC's have been released since
Probably will be a WHILE till it get fixed
No doubt about that
Daft unfortunately given that waterfowl hunting is a fairly large portion of the game, as well as almost locked behind paid DLC's that I'm sure most of us have bought
Itās literally a fix lol
All you have to do is get a bit away from other peeps
Works just fine
Walkin 400 yards away from someone you're trying to stand in a blind and shoot with is not a fix lol
As per the definition⦠it do be. If it doesnāt work for you, that sucks I guess lol
The fix would be for the devs to fix whatever broke lol
People have pointed out when the problem arose, all it takes is for a simple file comparison between the files related to that code between before the update that broke it, and the current code
Revert the code, problem fixed
Everybody dies happy
Of course, but the basic concept remains the same. Something broke, check revisions of before the break, with after it.
.257, .303, and .375 for rifles
How come so many people think bug fixing is āso easyā lol
Arguing with the wrong person about game development and version control practices mate.

It's that easy
I'm good thanks
I enjoy playing COTW, I'd like to keep it that way lol
Part of enjoying it would be for the bug that stops me and my friends from doing what we intended to do when buying it, and has been prominent since 2021, to be fixed lol. So I'm sure this won't be the last time I mention it, and I'm sure I won't be the last person either
Ya might choose to mention it in a place where, yknow, bug reports are supposed to go
Devs donāt look here lol
Kinda gets old seeing people whinging about things in the main channels when thereās nothing that can be done by the community beyond the fix I gave earlier lol
Your issues are with the devs. Let them know using the proper channels. Thatās all you can do until itās fixed.
The game is old. It has spaghetti code. The people working on it now arenāt the same as when it first started. Thereās been a couple patches since it started ābreakingā for some people. Thereās other content to put out to keep folks happy and thereās other things to tweak/fix/whathaveyou in the meantime. I understand being annoyed thereās a bug at the moment but itās a niche bug in a massive game. Thereās a temporary fix for your issue in the meantime. Report and be patient. Thatās all ya can do.
im using a 7mm and when i shoot a moose in one lung it doesn't even penetrate to the other lung, is the gun just too weak? im using the polymer tip bullet
yes
7mm is primarily for class 4-6 animals
I mean
so many options for every class grouping
it also depends on distance
But
.375 for 7-9, .303 and 7mm for 4-6, .257 and .243 for 2-3
ok fire
7mm works perfectly fine and gets the job done, but yeah def not the best
well yeah but i was getting like 20% range with a lung hit and it didn't go to the other lung when it was parallel
like stopped in the middle of one lung
I've shot a decent number of moose with the 7mm
what other good 7-9 guns are there
I mean moose take a little while to go down anyways
Guys is it possible to play this game on a Mac from steam? Like if I download it?
i dont have the dlc with the 375
my chud life bro
ok thanks y'all
How good is it
What is the best way to make money quickly as I am broke atm
Like what map and animal with what gun?
hunt ducks
set up decoys
use the 12ga
Alright š
how to do a great one grind in te awaroa for fallow? I can't understand guide videos on youtube
Thanks for you help guys
np
find all your zones, set up on 10 or so. make sure they have 2 males and 3-4 females. then kill males
Hows the 7mm for class 9? I personally havent tested it for them
it gets it done
It's by far not the best
but
it can get the job done
7mm soft points perform better than .300 poly tips at 150m
I've used the 7 mm to take down a good number of class 9 animals
just got to get closer
I also dont mind walking a bit to find the animal
i carry .375, .257, and 12ga if i'm running 3 guns
I used to do the same thing
I carry the 7mm 257 and the benelhag typically
I tend to change my load out pretty often now if I am not grinding
Do the scents do literally anything
I think I have used the scents a total of like three times since I started playing the game.
I use the scents like. all the time but honestly. on the times I forget, I don't really know the difference? so. ig hard to say
I think it changes how fast animals spook if you have like bad wind on them but. honestly I do not know, nor does it really like even say what it does
What is the best gun for hunting crocs on emerald coast
.375
goes for all class 7-9 animals
Alright thx ima give it a go now
How many zones do I need for white tall on laten
All of them
Search that entire area at least twice and you should have most if not all
How many for revatoly
Ok
The drink at lakes in the upper two thirds of the map
if you deadzone an area, will the need zones ever come back?
yes
just somewhere else
if you deadzone another spot and it moves there, yeah
i accidentally deadzoned two spots in my favorite hunting area after getting swarmed by aggressive wolves and having to kill three even though the area was already at high pressure and i was trying to leave, so this is good to know
what do i do if i cant reach a dead animal in the water
it isnt coming to me
it isnt
its like stuck their
there
and i already tried jumping to it and everything
It might be stuck on a shallow area
you'll find plenty of other golds
true
and also r male rocky mountain elk rare to find or sum
like 3 groups of 5 passed me and no male
making me mad
nice
maybe fast travel far away and then go back there
that works sometimes, for next time that happens, hope it helps
how can i report these cheaterss
People who use cheats are the same people who wonder how they got viruses in their computers and act like they did nothing wrong
They try to play the victim card
Turn into a basilisk and sprint over the water
Yo, Can I get my trophies and DLCs from my ps acc on my new pc acc ?

These Vualez coyote missions are going to drive me insane
Thats sad tbh

Best map dlc? To buy
matters on playstyle and preferences

Od crocodile

Hi, is "theHunter: Call of the Wild⢠- Ultimate Hunting Bundle" in steam outdated? It seems to only have 16 items instead of all the DLCS?
Easiest g1s to grind?
Guys help i cant play with friends
What device you using?
pc
all 3 pc
they are not recieving game invites
You sure your games are all updated
yes ofc
None of yous have bans?
It might just be a bug with the person inviting everyone
no it doesnt work for all of us
It could be something in the multiplayer settings
So its js you
Possible its js something wrong with an update or something if you restart your pc a few times it may work
it doesnt i tried
Iād say just wait it out if nothing is working
iāve seen a few people saying that lately, itās some sort of bug/glitch
alr
and also birds freeze and cant be collected
sometimes thatās because of player to player connection, if it says 0 next to your name that means youāve disconnected from the server
i dont even get connected
oh yeah, hopefully itāll be fixed with next patch
does anybody know if i should be stacking diamonds on my g1 grind or not?
It helps hm go quickly
Where are the most Bob White quails on Mississippi?

Can anyone help me get the outposts in asky ridge

Ah alr
Whatās the best thing to try when fox stop showing up on the island?
Maybe you have only shot one fox from many pairs, so they don't respawn. Try blasting every single fox you see, then new pairs will respawn (they only do that together)
Is it better to set up at feed or drink zones for a grey wolf grind?
So I just lost a diamond elk is there a way to make an elk diamond grind if so how
do great ones ever spawn naturally without grinding? what are the odds of randomly finding one in my game world?
Nah thats not possible anymore nowadays
the removed initial spawn g1s
a while ago
It was due to people using a revealing cheat to find them then they would new game to get more
So they removed it so people couldn't exploit it
By lost do you mean you canāt find it on the map? Or that you shot and botched it?
If itās your own map and itās still alive , itās still around
I botched it shot it in the foot
And itās dead
anyone wanna play?
Aww rats, well you can make a diamond grind with any species really , just keep shooting large critters
Please keep this question to #š¦ļø“find-a-game !
Setup some tents and tripods at their drink zones to speed things up
Drink zones
Only use feeders as a last resort tbh
Depends what you mean by naturally. Without āgrindingā? Absolutely. Initial spawns? Nope
Know a buncha folks that have gotten their g1 without trying tho. They just hunt around like irl lol
ohh okay, ty
i was wondering what the odds were of finding a g1 wolf on yukon if i hunt wolves there often
Iāve checked 4 times for them. I shot 187 this morning then out of nowhere I donnt have any
