Yes they sometimes move zones to new areas when they update the game. Its to make it more dynamic. Also if you shoot 4 animals or more in a zone it will dlete the zone

bitter swift
#

zones within a high hunter pressure area will be removed or if you wipe out a whole herd to that zone

cinder gull
#

so shooting 2 coyotes wiped the area of coyotes GWvertiPeepoChrist how am i gonna complete the mission now, i've been finding coyotes at balmont lake for the past 4 hours.

bitter swift
#

it wont wipe the area, there should still be some around

#

if you leave the area for a bit a new zone will spawn with new animals

#

does the NV scope actually have IR sights with it or is it just a NV scope?

scarlet pilot
#

Hey. Is it guaranteed that around hunting spots there should be any animals (within period of whole day )? That is: are hunting spots designed to make sure one a for example specific time of a day something will appear ? I have impression there is many spots there is no animals at all

#

Which implies second question: is it worth to spend time on hunting spots to get knowledge about some animal habits

marsh vine
#

hi! after long period without play, i don't remenmber where i put my duck traps! any solution to recall them or find them? thank

dark mango
#

what do you mean with "hunting spots"? need zones?

last hemlock
#

Duck traps @marsh vine ?? You mean decoys or blinds?? You should see there icons from your map

marsh vine
#

fake ducks yes! ok i go to check my map! thank you

last hemlock
#

No problem!!

scarlet pilot
#

@dark mango - hunting stands

dark mango
#

roughly speaking hunting stands tend to be relatively well placed, near bodies of water or areas where animals could feed
but this doesn't mean you're guaranteed see animals whenever you use one of them, least of all see animals no matter what time of the day you go

proper sable
#

whitetail detailed hunting guide just gone up. hope it helps all.

gritty otter
#

is tierra pico a good spot for hunting?

marsh vine
#

thank you for your video @proper sable

proper sable
#

np glad to help.

gritty otter
#

it helps but i dunno why but i have basicly no whitetails on my server

#

im just gonna keep going until i give up

gritty otter
#

no

lost lava
#

Ibex cant be piebald, only albino and mela

lost hound
#

on the wiki it says it can be piebald

#

but is it just my eyes fucking with me then?

lost lava
#

the wiki is wrong, then

lost hound
#

ah I see it walked, weird how this game can just show your different fur types sometimes

bitter swift
#

The wiki is insanely untrustworthy

lost lava
#

we should do something about it but im lazy

spring crescent
#

I think the game should have an more in depth animal info system

dark mango
#

@spring crescent like how?

spring crescent
#

Telling all the furs a animal can have, which ones are rare and uncommon, diamond and max weight info, what the max level is, etc.

#

All of this in the codex

lost lava
last hemlock
#

some also spawn down the bottom

lost lava
#

yeah, but those are harder to see with all the grass

last hemlock
#

yeah fair

#

next to where you hunt ducks

ancient oar
#

What is that map for

lost lava
#

jackrabbits

ancient oar
#

Ah i see

last hemlock
#

where are some good spots for wilderbeast?

empty breach
#

I've been following a water buffalo for a long time now, its now night, the only time I managed to get close enough to it it started raining and I lost the visual (obviously)

#

Now a bit of time passed and even the last known tracks despawned

#

How do I track it down again?

lost lava
#

you will probably need to restart the day and wait for him where you first spotte

empty breach
#

Oh so I go to sleep until morning and then go back to its original place?

#

At what hour does the game restart the day?

lost lava
#

At the time youd like

#

was he drinking, eating or sleeping?

#

or was he just walking?

empty breach
#

Last I saw him he was eating, however I first spotted it walking

lost lava
#

oH!

#

also, if its night, press L

#

for the Light

#

you cannot see tracks without it in the dark

empty breach
#

I know but he was constantly nervous, couldn't approach it no matter what

#

I tried waiting for it to come back to its tracks but it didn't

lost lava
#

damm, then yeah, you may need to chase him again "tomorrow"

empty breach
#

Ok resetted to day, now I'm going where I spotted it first

lost lava
#

he may be there, he may not be or you may need to wait for him

empty breach
#

How do I know if its the case? Should I go to the need zone near the area I spotted him?

#

Found its tracks again

lost lava
#

thats a smart move! if thats a buffalo area it may be him

#

oh nice!

empty breach
#

He's already running?

lost lava
#

is he very chonky?

#

he may be a lvl 8 or 9

empty breach
#

Lv8

lost lava
#

yeah, those are very smart

empty breach
#

I'm waiting in the area for it to come back

#

Or is he to smart for that?😁

lost lava
#

haha no but he will take his time, if he is feeding or sleeping he may move within the need zone but away from you

empty breach
#

This time I have the rifle with me, last time I only had my bow

#

I was going mule deer hunting

#

So if I reset the day he'll be always there

#

?

lost lava
#

yeah, always at his need zone at those times

empty breach
#

He never turns back, I went ahead very carefully and noticed he just keeps walking and walking and walking

#

In straight lines

empty breach
#

got it, it was a gold

restive bough
#

We found the great ones!

last hemlock
#

Can you like over hunt a single player map? Because I here people talking about "changing maps" but I am not sure if that is only for MP?

last hemlock
#

not sure

#

i think you might be able to Thinking

cinder gull
#

i just noticed all the ducks that spawn to me are black

#

is this a bug?

ancient oar
#

yep

#

kill them while you can

last hemlock
#

yeah there is a bug with the furs

#

so cant tell how many are legit or not

cinder gull
#

i only shoot ducks that has a trophy est of 21, those few that i shot all has melanistic under fur type šŸ¤”

last hemlock
#

Hey , I just started the game like 30 minutes ago and cant find any deer or anything , I only have layton lake and hirschfeldon hunting reserve , Any Tips ?

fading umbra
#

Don’t to hirsh. I can never find anything on it lol.

last hemlock
#

Go to the river and walk the river @last hemlock WT drink time between 1230-1530

#

Or any of the lakes. Blacktails between 5-9

tired mirage
#

Don’t spend your time running around or you’ll scare all the animals off. Walk, and if you see an animal press Z to lay on the grass and crawl closer. It takes time to learn the game

last hemlock

Hai, newbie here, new to the Server and to COTW.

I'd like to join a public game in the Yukon area, but I don't own the DLC. Am I still able to join a Yukon server? Thanks in advance <3

ancient oar
#

why dont you try

cloud kettle
#

Sibling is using the Xbox :P

ancient oar
#

are you

#

oh

#

sorry

#

umm i dont think you can

#

you can go in lodges and use dlcs like quads and tripods though

cloud kettle
#

Ooh, neat. Thank you :D

ancient oar
#

np

dark mango
#

you can join mp games in maps you don't own

ancient oar
#

thats good to know

cinder gull
#

what do you do after completing all the missions in an area?

#

is there like some checklist of animals to hunt or smth

ancient oar
#

Kill everything

#

Or just play the game

cinder gull
#

cool

#

are diamonds only found in missions?

#

also the last bull elk at night in tower mission wasnt a diamond, is that intended or a bug?

spring crescent
#

Diamonds can be found naturally, theyre just rare

cinder gull
#

i see thank you

#

also by "kill everything", so in each reserve theres a limited amt of animals and you can actually wipe the population?

spring crescent
#

No, animals will respawn

cinder gull
#

oic, thank you.

split furnace
#

Do you think it is safe to delete the Trophy Lodge to remove all the animals at once or to remove them one by one is safer for no animals to disappear? I would like to know your opinion please, there is something wrong with my Lodge so I need to redo it.

ancient oar
#

Idk

#

I dont have a lodge but i since its been buggy lately maybe remove one at a time

last hemlock
#

i would just remove each one just to be safe

#

i mean ive never had a problem in the trophy lodge but still

split furnace
#

I also never had a problem, unfortunately it happened in this update, I imagine that there is some buggy animal inside the room

#

I will withdraw one by one so thank you guys

odd kindle
#

my reindeer and caribou are fine

#

im just scared to try to mount more

but despite getting to closer than 10m and shooting moose with a bow, i still cant unlock it

This has probably been touched on umpteen times, but here it goes.

Been playing classic for about 4 months, just bought cotw.

Is there anything I should know, strategies, weapons, callers, areas of interest?

odd kindle
#

sorry i dont have time to explain it to you rn but im sure someone else will

odd kindle
#

any body know some good coyote spots?

#

i need to grind for the multi mount

last hemlock
#

whats the max weight for a gray wolf?

subtle ice
#

When you shoot an animal and it doesn’t die does it reset your consecutive

tired mirage
#

No, consec is reset when you shoot an animal, fail to harvest it, and then close the game

odd kindle
#

do you think 223 to 323 would make diamond for whitetail

split furnace
#

@plain kraken in the codex in Wild Life you will find the correct ammo class for each animal. About areas of interest, there are specific times for hunting places according to the needs of each animal, I hope you understand, I use google translate xD

cloud kettle
#

I have a problem; I shot and killed a Wildebeest and it died where I shot it (my first bow shot too :D) but I can't pick it up. It's sitting on its blood so if I try picking it up, it just examines the blood instead
Edit: I'm on an Xbox one S
Edit 2: I'm also on a public server, if that changes things

split furnace
#

@cloud kettle I don't know how it is on the xbox, but multiplayer on the PC there is not much to do when it happens, if it were in single mode you could leave the game and kill it again

What on earth is going on with Caribou and lodges?? My game crashes every time I try and mount one in any lodge.

#

Could I have a list of what variations red stags come in? Was thinking about doing some red deer hunting

odd kindle
#

albino piebald melo since it got fixed and obviously common

gritty otter
#

no lusisitc?

odd kindle
#

nah

#

caribou have all 4

#

caribou/reindeer

#

and bison

#

off the top of my head

gritty otter
#

what other types of deer have the same variatons as red stags?

odd kindle
#

uhhh

#

i thinks it all deer

#

except reindeer and caribou

gritty otter
#

and what map is better to hunt red deer on cuarto parque or hirsh?

odd kindle
#

if you want like actual rare rares then dont go cuatra

#

no

#

i meant parque

gritty otter
#

i havent seen any piebalds melans or albinos

odd kindle
#

rn go cuatro cause the melo bug could at least let you have some fun in between

#

havent seen any for what?

gritty otter
#

red deer on parque

odd kindle
#

theyre there

bitter swift
#

Cuarto has more male red deer

gritty otter
#

i have more luck on there with more red deer then on hirsh

odd kindle
#

just go cuatro

bitter swift
#

I found my melanistic red 9 a few hours ago on cuatro

odd kindle
#

i wont even be near zones and ill get calls from stags

bitter swift
#

easy to spot them from a distance and less lakes to go too

odd kindle
#

i was hunting becietes and a red deer stag showed up

#

level 8

#

for no reason

#

wasnt even a drink zone

gritty otter
#

i dont know why but i hardly have any red deer zones

odd kindle
#

probably a wierd behavior glitch

bitter swift
#

Reds on Cuatro are like fallow on hirsch

odd kindle
#

here i can show you a decent place

bitter swift
#

they tend to be everywhere for no reason

gritty otter
#

ok

odd kindle
#

for whatever reason i always get like level 3 fallows

#

sometimes a 2 or 4

#

i got a 1 one time

#

i have him mounted

#

cause its funny

bitter swift
#

fallow are the one animal i'm yet to get a diamond trurac

#

they are frustrating to get high levels

#

ive got close golds

gritty otter
#

i have 10 roe deer zones on cuatro

odd kindle
#

@gritty otter do you have the cabana del pintor outpost?

gritty otter
#

i know where it is i havent claimed it yet

odd kindle
#

claim it and go to that field like north west of the outpost

#

like the one thats all by its self

#

and just look around in there

#

i had a good drinking zone but i accidently got rid of it

gritty otter
#

i got 5 roe deer here

odd kindle
#

gritty otter
#

oh ok

#

wow i got lots of roe deer

#

i think 10 right now

#

well atleast now i know a good roe deer spot

What on earth is going on with Caribou and lodges?? My game crashes every time I try and mount one in any lodge.
@willow dagger Create another Trophy Lodge and take out the common fur Caribou you have there, it’s the buggy, I had to find out in a very long way since nobody wanted to help me around here

willow dagger
#

Thanks, Z0CK, I will give that a go ā¤ļø

there is no need to delete, withdrawing is already good

Hmm I tried this in multiple ways with different lodges and it didn't work. Hopefully the patch will sort it!

knotty vale
#

Anybody got some good spots for whitetails? Because either my animal population has very low to none on it or I just don't find any 😦

split furnace
#

I also have this problem, I used to find it easily but nowadays it is difficult to find them

plucky badger
#

i was having some good luck in the upper part of balmont but it feels more empty than it used to be....

knotty vale
#

I mean I tried mushroom lake as Flinter calls it, but nothing. Balmont lake, also nothing. The lakes below the train bridge in Balmont, same problem there.

#

Ok I just checked mushroom lake again and I had a herd of 3 bucks and 2 does, got 2 of the bucks

thorny gulch
#

Just sneak around the lakes/rives during whitetails drinking hours, you're bound to find some herds

#

For reference it tends to be 12:00 – 15:30

scarlet pilot
#

From a while new hunting spots ( sleeping zones etc ) are not showing up on the map - is there a limitation for that ? That's actually a huge issue for me, as I am trying to observe some animals in details to make harder missions

knotty vale
#

@thorny gulch thx for the tip, will try that tomorrow

dark mango
#

@scarlet pilot afaik there's no limit to that, must be a bug

scarlet pilot
#

Can I filter somehow on maps specific marks, like spots of specific animal ?

remote spear
#

Ever since the update I’ve hardly seen that many whitetail. It’s driving me nuts. Hopefully the hotfix will help.

real hazel
#

Comming from classic: do winged animals bleed out?

#

I’m questioning my theHunter knowledge here because the blood is stopping and I’m not finding poorly shot animals

scarlet pilot
#

IMO it is quite waste of time to try to chase down poorly shot animal

lethal moon
#

so for the past few levels i havent been getting any skill or perk points. is that normal or a glitch?

drowsy oriole
#

After a certain level you only get points every two and then every three levels maxing out at level 60

#

It’s normal

lethal moon
#

@drowsy oriole Okay thank you. I thought was the case, but I wanted to make sure.

plain kraken

Are cinnamon blackbear rare?

odd kindle

uncommon

all the black bear furs are commons

it is enogh to get the most penetration and expansion ammo to have the best pick?

i mean, if i se .243 polymer -270 soft, is there a point to use different ammo from these ones?

gritty otter

wait what colors do black bears come in?

wispy geyser

How much does the small bag effect your sound and visibility and sound? is it worth?

I'm not sure how to rate how much it increases sound other than what the game says, but it's not worth it. @wispy geyser

if anything get the large bag if your gonna be stand hunting

So is there no way that I can retrieve my old lodge anymore?

@stable monolith u can't, my friend have the same issue, he did put backup before losing and didnt work, rip

Well shit

#

I guess im fine with restarting

queen wigeon
#

i didnt lose anything

#

lucky me

stable monolith
#

Lucky enough for me I have a diamond mallard that I didnt shoot yet since a whitetail I got was deleted after I restarted the game

#

One thing that interests me though is that since the great ones update, my lodges were deleted and were replaced by a very old lodge that I had with a bunch of old silvers and a few golds

#

And I wonder if maybe my lodge is somewhere in the files

Since the old lodge that appeared I deleted a lont time ago

My steam is stuck in an infinite loop of unpacking and starting the end of the download of the hotfix... Anyone heard of this issue?

dark mango
#

I had that problem, but instead of a 130mb, it was the scoring 2.0, so I had to download a few gb once, and then the entire game, and then the update again... I don't know how or why finally got solved, only that I restarted steam and my pc many times

@heady lake I have had this happen as well. I ended up moving the game from my ssd to my old hard drive, updated the game and it went fine. I don't know why that worked, or what the problem was.

I gave up and backed up my save file and just reinstalled

Oh thank god

i was going to be so angry if i wiffed that opportunity

bitter swift
#

level 8 has a low chance of diamond and level 9 should be a guaranteed diaond

#

lvl 7 would never make it

crude ruin
#

so does consecutive harvest reset every time you log into the game? because you need 100% C.H to get a diamond right?

dark mango
#

consecutive harvest doesn't affect trophy level

#

only xp and money

crude ruin
#

Really? i've heard people say that the animals would've been a diamond if they had had a 100% consecutive harvest?

shrewd hare
#

That was way before. Concec haven't affected scoring for a long time. And with scoring 2.0 even quick kill doesn't matter anymore.

crude ruin
#

ahhhhh that makes sense. thank you

shrewd hare
#

As long as you check all those 4 harvest checks, you are good!

tawdry sentinel

Can someone tell me what animals you can’t get diamond at the moment?

lost lava
#

elk, any of the ibex, water buffalo
also, lvl 5 blacktail are less likely to get diamond than lvl 4

Level 8 black bear would never make diamond

Anyone else having trouble with Bhandari#1(spot a bison)? I've been trying to this mission already for a few months now, but i can't seem to find any bison or a single track of them.

this is the reason why i was wondering if they ever plan on putting those into call of the wild

im a returning player. But now it crashes on launch.

#

used to run fine with great fps

bitter swift
#

righto, running any mods?

vale tinsel
#

none at all

bitter swift
#

ok I'd suggest verifying the integrity through steam

#

may have a faulty download

vale tinsel
#

Tried that, and a Fresh install too. Tried re downloading Direct X too

bitter swift
#

hmmm. screenshots of when it crashes and what it shows after?

#

or is it just a strait up shutdown with no critical error message?

vale tinsel
#

yeah i get a crashdump, crashes after the black screen with the 4 dots on it which i presume is the loading screen

bitter swift
#

yeah thats pretty much the startup

#

no programs running in the background?

vale tinsel
#

Besides Stuff i allways used to run which was basically just discord

bitter swift
#

yeah thats weird. Maybe close chrome and try that otherwise there's something faulty going on

people getting the same thing on the reddit too by the looks of it

the game has been currently riddled with bugs since the great ones and scoring 2.0

.338 vs .300, which one and why? I don't know what to use right now šŸ˜„ i like both of them but sometimes both of them dissapoint me in a veird potentially ez shoot and not getting job done. Most of people say that stats of .300 are better but they forget about stats of each gun ammo.

bitter swift
#

I dont find much difference between the two

#

good long range guns, all you gotta do is hit a lung and the animal should flop

Having used both I like the .300 more could be placebo but I also like the extra capacity on the .300 vs the 338

anyone know good Iberian Wolf spots, i want to hunt them and have no idea where good spots are?

bitter swift

lakes at night and early morning

they are either drinking or hunting then and will come to you

the long lake at the northeast of the map is a good one

i've seen packs 12+

top side of the lake?

just do a lap

the lake to the west of it is good too

where do they rest, cause night time hunting sucks

cause night vision doesnt work well at all lol

it just makes it greener and doesnt actually give night vision

#

iberian wolves come to you lol
youll find most at 5-6 am, when they are hunting, top lakes

#

you may struggle as they are running or walking but i got a lot that way

#

i use the 22lr to distract them at 200+ meters and then shoot w/ my 7mm

ive only ever had them attack me once and thats when i was really close to them by sneaking up

#

every other time they just flee

still tho

they run until they at 400m away šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

at least for me

but when they are hunting they go after other creatures. You can tell when wolves are around because theyll spook your lvl 9 red deer lmao

I can't figure out how to use the bow. I've got the dlc koter cb65, but it does not load any arrows.
I've got the arrows in my storage, but the bows still says 0 arrows.

Go into any game, press Escape, then go into inventory on the left side. Click ammo --> arrows, drag and drop them into the ammo slot on the bow

Can someone help me? I've just recently redownloaded Hunter COTW on steam and I'm unable to get it to load. Before it opens it tell me to download the latest Nvidia drivers (what I own) but I have already done that. It launches then four white dots appear in the bottom right corner and it immediately crashes. I've verified the steam files, have the latest software, latest video drivers and it still doesn't work. Sorry if this is the wrong chat but I couldn't find the help section. Note: It works on my laptop which has the same exact driver, software ect. but it doesn't work on my desktop.

bitter swift
#

what graghics card do you have?

lavish shard
#

@naive sapphire Is that right?

naive sapphire
#

Yes that

lavish shard
#

Suggestions from Chinese players:
0, first update the driver of the official video card channel
, Steam right-click attribute to check the integrity of the game

  1. After turning off cloud storage and exiting the club, the game is very stable. The flashback occurred in Article 2 and Article 3.
  2. When entering another person's room, there is a very small chance that the room owner will disappear and cause flashback. Or I was kicked out by the homeowner, or because of network fluctuations (my bear kid watching the cartoon to grab the net) caused me to flash back in other people's rooms. Now I only open my own room or stand-alone.
  3. Sometimes the cotw error notification will pop up in the lower right corner of the win10 when you first start the game. After that, you will enter the game and play normally for a few minutes, but the ending will definitely flash back. If you open the game again without notice, you can play the game smoothly. Therefore, if there is an error notification, I directly exit and reopen.
    Combining the above three, I haven't happened in one flashback. Hope it helps you

End-game skills worth getting?

I think it's really daft that you have to waste points on skills you don't want or need to unlock the late-game skills when there's such a limited pool of skill points availible. Which skills do you recommend grinding out?

dark mango
#

note that you can always remap your skills for game money

#

but anyway, you don't need to pick that many "useless" skills, many of them make your life much easier

@naive sapphire I have the same issue. Have you found any solution?

Thanks for the YT, it was interesting but only tells you what that guys uses. I've been told that 'Disturbed Vegetation' is good, but I really want Pack Mule, it's just that with my current distribution of skill points it means that I can't have both. So yeah, just asking for advice about what people think about the tier 4 skills and if they're worth it.

Every time my buddies and I try Multiplayer, one of us will leave (disconnect) from the session after a few minutes of play. They are only able to rejoin if myself or another individual in the session leaves the session (they take their place seemingly). Any idea how to fix? Can't find anything on how to fix this reoccurring random disconnect problem. Thanks

@fervent wind Honestly i dont find disturbed vegetation very good

It used to be really good but it drops left often now and is pretty unreliable

Quick question, I’ve bought all 24 dlc on steam, and have just gotten the Xbox version of the game to play with my dad and brother, will I need to rebuy all dlc? Or can I somehow link the accounts

Or can we cross play from pc to Xbox?

So me and my friend have been having this problem on multiplayer where we get in a game with each other but one of us gets disconnected from the server. We have been having this problem for a few months now and any fix I could find didn't work. Both of our internet is in great condition and have not had any problems. We have played a lot of other multiplayer games with out a single connection problem or even having high ping. Any way I can fix this?

I know it will sound a bit stupid, but how do you actually fast forward the game by 4 days to get respawns?
I mean do you just rest for 23hours to skip a day? Or is there something specific you gotta do with resting?

If I am making a youtube video of COTW, can I use the music from the game in the video? Im assuming its copyrighted..

toxic wasp
#

So I came back to COTW yesterday and was wondering something. Basically I feel like there is two ways of hunting that are worth while. First is the one I used to have a lot of success with at layton lake. Basically just hunting off of sight. You walk around, see something and shoot it. Today I bought the Weapon Pack 1 and experimented with a different hunting style (with the Crossbow). Which is basically going to a spot with animal activity and spamming animal calls. Something comes close and I shoot it. (with Crossbow) And just repeat.

Is there any technique or hunting style that is considered "the best" or are there some, I guess, "guidelines" on when to use which?

lost lava
#

there is also stalking, you walk around, usually in hirsch or cuatro and when you find tracks, you follow them and stalk the animal.
i dont tknow if people usually do that, but i used to a lot in Hirsch when i was a newbie

toxic wasp
#

I feel like that just takes a long time, compared to just going to lakes and open areas where 80 % of the time some animal is gonna be around

lost lava
#

theres people who like doing that

#

as opposed to being a shooting gallery where everything is set there drinking

shrewd hare
#

Tracks are worth it if you know the animals weight and fur type.

shy snow
#

Hey Ormy Can i ask you a question about youtube video creation?

shrewd hare
#

Send me message. Not here šŸ™‚

toxic wasp
#

.270 or 7mm for Red Deer? On the one hand 7mm is a bigger Caliber, on the other .270 has 4 bullets in the mag

shrewd hare
#

As long as you hit vital, it's all good. They might run further with .270 but you could take another one from the same herd with a good follow up shot which isn't that easy with 7mm.

Hey got a couple questions concerning my whitetail herds. So a few of them just stopped going to their zone. I have like 2 or 3 whitetail zones where they would go to a lot but just stopped after a while. They are still marked on the map, I never had high hunting pressure since I'm almost always shooting them out of stands, having placed them at almost all my whitetail zones by now. Also a few zones only have females, that used to have males. And I have two zones where only one female will show up. Is there any way to like get males back to spawning at those weird zones?

spring crescent
#

I think its something to do with spawning, that happens to me but eventually the sones go back to normal

forest tartan
#

@keen cedar so with the great one update people started noticing that the spawning is happening a bit different than it used to. Sometimes deer respawn in new herds at new zones instead of spawning in their old one. So try looking at new areas

thorny gulch
#

Hey, does anyone have any info on how animal corpses despawn, is it a time thing or a distance thing, and what are the specifics? Just lost probable gold moose due to getting distracted by some caribou and grizzlies and dying, and am wondering whether getting respawned too far away or time taken to get to the spot where it died caused it to despawn. The hit blood splatter is still there.

keen cedar
#

@forest tartan ok thanks

lost lava
#

if the track is sitll there, the corpse wil be there

#

afaik they remain the entire session, even if you skip time

#

ive found dead blacktail and jackrabbits that i couldnt find a couple irl hours after i killed 'em

#

but i think they despawn if you switch maps or go to the lodge

thorny gulch
#

@lost lava Weird, the moose dropped like a rock but once I got there the vital splatter was still there but no corpse, only things that happened inbetween were the time I took to get there and death to few kilometers away

What use is the duck caller and the decoys, I've never seen ducks flying like geese do, they're always stationary in a lake when I get there or there is nothing there at all.

Decoys apparently make it likelier that there are ducks there, though I haven't tested this enough to be sure of it. Of callers I do not know, I've seen ducks land in a lake once, and that was after I had sacred them from the lake next to it a moment earlier. Did some testing with decoys, caller and blind and never got any come closer or land.

Come on guys!!! I just want to know how the file Works so I schedule my goose hunts better....

What do you mean by goose population system

It should have a file in documents directory that Manage goose spawns in game. I’m wondering if goose are like the other animais that if you hunt him a lot, their Number decrease for a while....

lost lava

it kinda does. specially if you hunt the same spot a lot

if you go to somewhere else, im not very sure. My favourite goose spot is just about the best. I overhunt there because pressure doesnt matter for geese?
But when i go to another less-popular goose field they just...

dont really come either

maybe its because it is already less popular

I need to know if we need to manage our hunts better. Yesterday Night, gooses stop spawn in my map for mor than an hour....

they stop comming

It’s a little more viable now but it can be annoying because sometimes it goes right threw a lung and sometimes it penetrates 1mm into the flesh

Theres lots of animals that need them still

I want a mule deer multimount cus I got two diamond mule deers my first two diamonds actually

They need to make more huddle ones too i got a ton of red deer males

I have yet to get the cool mule deer rack to

They should do it in drop down options. Like
Huddle> species > mule/fallow/caribou/reindeer/etc
The Protector or whichever it is >species > lesser kudu/axis/blackbuck/etc
lLeader of the Pack > species > gray wolf/Iberian wolf

Same with the rabbit multimounts just have the one type and drop down to choose species

twin jacinth
#

Thats a good idea

drowsy oriole
#

That way instead@of different types of species strangled out over pages it’s One Type of mount and a drop down to chose WHICH species

twin jacinth
#

They also need to make it so you can access your lodge without having to go to a map first

#

And make it so you can manage your tropies while your hunting

#

It would be so much easier than going back and forth

gritty otter
#

Yeah

drowsy oriole
#

Not to mention you can avoid that almost guaranteed crash when you go from multi player > single player > trophy lodges

And I think they need to add hares to hirschfelden

#

And maybe wolves if they live in Germany

twin jacinth
#

They need to add lots of animals

And some to certain reserves

I’d like Arctic wolves foxes and hares on medved

Find his spawn point, set a tent down and pray you’re quick enough with the camera as he runs past you @gritty otter

I think I sat on a tripod and called him in but that took forever

I wanna shoot him so bloody bad

WHY GIVE A LVL 9 BEAR TO TAKE A PHOTO?!?!?

You can shoot him at the end of the story line

Of the photo?

Or can I before??

Does he spawn back after the photo???

Hey guys. Does anyone know what caller works best for grey wolves or how to call them. I’ve tried the Jackrabbit caller, however it doesn’t do anything to attract them. Any info or help would be appreciated. Thanks 😁

I bought this game quite recently and im enjoying it alot. I just want to know which DLC reserve I should buy

Yukons pretty fun

tropic ocean
#

yea kinda want to choose between that and savanna

thorny gulch
#

Medved is alright as well

tropic ocean
#

Really? By just googling most people seemed to dislike medved the most

#

Thanks

last hemlock
#

Medved just doesn't have super popular species

#

It also has the lowest species count

#

Reindeer Brownbear and Muskdeer are pretty dope though

tropic ocean
#

Im gonna take that into consideration then

dry turtle
#

I recommend the savannah to start with i started playing the game there and it’s a good way to start by hunting rather easy things like jackals and springbok

thorny gulch
#

I like Medved for its environment tbh

dry turtle
#

Cuatro is a beautiful map

#

Yukon is more for big game hunting in my opinion

foggy tulip
#

@tropic ocean I started put buying Vurhonga map. Ended up buying all of them. I personally am not a huge fan of Cuatro or Medved. I do however enjoy Yukon the most out of all of them. Had a great time in Vurhonga, mainly because I am South African so it’s almost home to me. If I were you, I’ll just buy all of the systematically šŸ‘

anyone know if there is a way to restore your game back after a possible corrupt save file incident? 😭
i dont think it's corrupt but when trying to run the game first thing this morning it asked me to choose between local game files or steam cloud files. I chose the steam cloud files as this was the most recent option and now when i try and run the game its as if i have to start afresh 😭
with 450hrs on the game i dont have a great feeling about this 😬 . if anyone can offer some help please @ me

I shot a 301 rated moose (which if i’m not mistaken should make diamond) using 9.3x74 which is legal for moose but when I claimed it, it got dropped down to gold because apparently I used an illegal ammo type? any explanation or anything I can do to prevent this in the future?

@cinder gull I just got that achievement two days ago. I shot a rabbit in Cuatro Colinas with the .22LR. It was running towards me when I hit it.

compact frost
#

@white fractal Any map will work just fine. I have used bows almost exclusively while playing this game. Once you learn what each of your pins represent, and you get used to being slow, and quiet, or calling stuff in it's fairly easy. You could also look into getting the High Tech DLC. It will give you a nice midweight bow, and a rangefinder sight.

i'll try rabbits then, thank you @bronze sandal

@cinder gull I just got that achievement two days ago. I shot a rabbit in Cuatro Colinas with the .22LR. It was running towards me when I hit it.
just repeated this exact same scenario, rabbit running towards me, calm with travelling status, shot with instant kill at 11m. no achievement.

@compact frost

That range finder sight makes a huge difference too! It makes it much easier to get an accurate shot, I wish they gave information on what the bows were sighted in at

#

Or an option to zero them at different distances like the rifle perk

#

Will animals still come to a need zone if there is hunting pressure over it?

spring crescent
#

If there isnt too much they will

tropic mountain
#

Can a hunting pressure go away eventually even when ur playing on another map?

#

on single player?

#

Oh and how does the time work in game?

#

Is it similar to real life time like how it progresses normally? Or is it sped up?

#

I heard it takes 2 full day game time for a hunting pressure to be removed

#

does that mean i have to wait for 48 hours irl

shrewd hare
#

Hunting pressure is only removed if you create pressure elsewhere. At least from my experience. Time is sped up quite a bit, can't exactly remember what the ration was right now tho.

Is consecutive harvest removed already?

#

It's been gone for a long while now

#

Even quick kill doesn't matter to the medals anymore.

sterile arrow
#

Thanks Ormy! Been playing for 2 weeks now and I've just started watching tips on youtube. Didn't notice the time stamps though.

dark mango
#

yeah but note that both consec harvest and quick kill still count towards money and xp

shrewd hare
#

That's true

#

And you need to pass 4 checks for the best medal: Hit a vital organ (heart, lung, neck, liver), use right ammo, shoot twice or less and not to hit trophy organ (skull mostly). If you pass all those 4 checks, you get the best medal possible from the animal. If you fail one or more of them, your animals medal will be downgraded by one. Meaning gold animal would show as silver.

#

Brain is also a vital organ but since you shouldn't shoot the skull for most animals I left it out from the list.

#

For small game you don't need to hit vital tho.

thorny gulch
#

A question @shrewd hare since you seem knowledgeable, can you hit tusks or antlers or others such trophy organs at all?

shrewd hare
#

I don't think any antlers, tusks or horns have colliders / hitboxes so you can't hit them.

#

I wish they had tho. Then antlers wouldn't fall underground when animal dies.

#

Haven't tried shooting any antler tho, maybe they have hitbox and count towards messing up the trophy organ šŸ¤”

#

But not a single time during my playtime I've seen a hit on the antlers / horns.

thorny gulch
#

Theres been coupla times I've had to be careful since I didn't want to risk horns of others blocking shots but haven't tested yet if they actually block shots

shrewd hare
#

Yea I've been careful with that too šŸ˜„

#

Now I want to know lol

If you roll over your cash on the harvest screen you can still see the quick kill and stuff but it only affects ya money i believe

Is there any particular reason why majority of boar herds in my Cuatro Colinas are all-female? Feels like all the males are alone somewhere and vast majority difficulty 1 or 2, whereas females run around in groups of 4-16, all worthless. Should I just thin the herds and hope that more males spawn in, or is this behaviour normal to them in CC, because I think in Hirschfelden and Medved I see a lot more herds with males, and males with rating 3 to 4.

@thorny gulch You might've shot all the males in that herd? I hunt exclusively on Hirschfelden and notice some males tend to go alone. No experience w boar yet as I'm new but this is what I notice with other animals.

last hemlock
#

Yep it’s the same with some of the species. Meaning on Layton there’s huuuge herds of 15-30 female elk roaming around and bachelor groups of males roaming around on their own. Back when elk where ā€œscoring properlyā€ I shot a diamond elk who was all by himself and no others around. So there can be herds of females or males all by themselves.

someone explain me this, i know the 243 is class 2-6 but if i find an animal that would be a class 4,5, or a 6 would it be better to just take a bigger caliber that has a higher base to kill the class 4,5,6?

#

cuz this game got me confused af

#

since the change with classes bullets ect

You can just take second gun with larger caliber to cover 4-6 yes, but it probably doesn't cover 2 and 3 like .243 does since they would get vaporized

Posted this in general and then figured itd be better asked here. Sorry for double post.
