@last hemlock thx a lot
@last hemlock thx a lot
@stuck pagoda You're welcome
@meager plover Chase some boar over there, thats what I had to do
Are ducks glitched or something?
Just got back into cotw after a break and have been searching all the lakes at layton and havent seen or heard a single duck yet.
Go to the river in the north east of Layton that goes up and out of the map, they are normally all up there.
No, go to roonache lake or more of the lakes on the west side of layton and you find ducks
There is also a good spot
Basically top right and bottom left of the map and youāll find them
Or sonetimes flying around the map
Check if your graphic card driver is up to date, if you haven't already
The hunter will be on sale on steam's halloween sale yes?
Someone resseted my skills on my acc. And im lvl 60. Would I unlock them again? Because currently as im checking they are locked..
You should be able ro soend your skill points again
The only things gone are this
all of the ambush skills
I had the spotting knowledge
and sight spotting\
Hey I just got the game and am downloading it now and am wondering if controller has an advantage in stealth/not getting detected, or if you can play just as well with kb+m? Appreciate if anyone who knows this can help me
Keyboard and mouse is much better
keyboard and mouse is 1000x better
Controller isnāt bad when you get used to it, but that is the hard part
thank you thank you š
Iām looking to find a really laggy server can anyone help me out
@meager rampart why laggy
@meager rampart view this as a warning, go read the rules again please. Specifically rule K. Yes this is exploiting something in game but is viewed as cheating.
I think it's ok to place these great tips from real hunting and aiming here and in classic as well, they show for riffle and bow all differences. Very usefull i think for new ones. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCsmTVAN0kA&list=PL3ybqEXp1bXY5WQ1zaQI2L4cX2FD29d9w&index=14&t=3s
Mosin or .270 what should I use?
Im speaking of the .270 engraved if there is any difference
Mosin i prefer
.44 unless you're hunting class 2 animals
Anyone know where good spots at Layton lake to find good moose?
Drink zones
Anywhere really
@slim crane go to #š¦ļø“find-a-game
As I think many people have wondered what kind of Turkey is that on the SRP reserve logo when you want to join SRP reserve.
could somebody post an up to date image of trophy ratings, classes, need zone times, etc?
or just confirm minimum diamond plain bison in srp is 203
cause I just killed a 205.3 and it was a gold
Idk what to do in this game anymore lol,I mean the only place where I can really hunt in is Layton lake because I have a lot of feed zones there,but I dont find any other animals in my 2 other maps (Hirschfelden and Cuastro) I mean I just walk around for 1.5 Hours without seeing anything and the bad thing is that I wasted aprox. 9 euros on cuastro and I dont kill anything is there a guide for cuastro?
I just joined last montj
Month
I have played classic for 1.5 years tho
do you have the perk that reduces walking noise?
you don't find animals or you don't find animals NOR need zones?
exploring the surroundings of water bodies you should find plenty of drink zones
@jovial eagle On cuatro there is a lake in the northeast, on a fresh map there will be a LOT of animals there all day but especially in the morning (around 6am) when red deer drink time is. my advice is go there
I dont see anything than forest
I dont even get warning calls
The only lake where I had luck on cuatro was some lake in the north with a small cliff but hunting pressure is too high because I killed too many beceite there but since this I dont see anything there ( it is aprox. 1 week since I dont see anything)
Hunt animals drink times
You will see tons
The game is very easy once you learn the times
Anyone know where good spots at Layton lake to find good moose?
@meager rampart If go southwest under the bridge before reach Hope's camp, will find nice moose, also when going to the east from Hopes's camp, at the part of the land that seems look like a point, will also find moose
when thehunter cotw sales are going to?
I found a great spot actually
Go to the spot bring a tree stand and place it right next to the water you get a lot of elk moose and some groups of white tail deer pass through there I would suggest sleeping until it is very late at night and going there and setting up during the night time do you usually find lots of elk and deer that walk through there in the night and then just wait out the day tons of animals walk through there every day
Very good spot if youāre looking to get some good trophy elk and moose
I mean just a regular stand
@last hemlock
@last hemlock Iāll check out ur spots too

@meager rampart Thx
Np
Iāve been sitting here and Iāve gotten a ton of elk and the good thing is that once you shoot even if you shoot by accident they usually come back I actually just got a level five elk with amazing looking antlers
So occasionally youāll get some good high levels
What kind of turkey this is? Kinda looks melanistic but it has some ripped feathers. So what is this?
My best guess is a visual glitch..
Itās a glitch and they used it as the reserve banner for who knows what reason.
I want to get help with the game. Can you help me
Depends whats wrong?
I can't go hunting, he's making a mistake.
İt says you don't have enough storage in error
But there's enough storage on the case.
@meager plover that was the first model of the turkeys before SRP released
Thanks.
yeah it's rough looking at that being the reserve pic. I would have preferred a level 5 rme chilling by a mountain.
For the next reserve it would be cool if there was a competition where beta testers could submit screenshots and the best screenshot became the reserve cover photo
^ would be nice
or make a generic one until the map comes out. Give players one week to take a really nice pic for the reserve and the winner gets it as the official picture.
Would be nice to have pheasants at some maps (including Hirschfelden)
Can someone help me? i can't use my weapons and callers. When i press 1 2 3
it doesn“t work
And when I press Inventory in esc, my game freeze
In the pause menu one of the options is called storage
When you take supplies from an outpost, it doesnāt go directly to your inventory, it goes to storage and from there you can select where and what you want in your inv
What are the best spots for Caribou?
@robust tendon I already have my weapons selected in my inventory
Nevermind
Nothing was selected for any reason
Anyone have a chart for weight estimates
Is the grey turkey fur variation even in the game? Ive seen almost every fur variation: Ive seen melanistic , albino, light brown. Only those that i dont have is Leucistic and Grey
Whatās that called
Yeah I suppose the grey is what is being shown in the above photo
But I dont think there is a grey in the game although Ive heard its a variation
Itās broken Iām pretty sure, I havenāt seen one since the first stream
Yeah Ima probably bring it up in bug reports or one of the COTW streams
what is the issue with the 'dangerous reaction' mission in srp? is there anything I can do to avoid it?
I have just been offered it, I'd like to know if it's worth the try or I should leave it until it's fixed
do bighorn sheep, mountain goat and pronghorn have callers?
No, none of those animals have callers
@dark mango there is a way to get through the dangerous reaction mission, theres a few tutorial videos of it on youtube if you search it. the issue with it is you can essentially 'skip' an objective of it and it screws the mission up
thank you, I'll take a look
are mountain lions attracted by any of the predator callers?
@dark mango Distressed fawn according to the codex
thanks!
yw
plans are derailed, story mission in srp
what's with the picture of the damaged track? I've taken now like 20, close, not so close, further, from one side, from the opposite, just above it, zoomed in, zoomed out...
@dark mango pretty sure the devs are aware of an issue with that mission too. It seems it works for some and doesnāt work for others. Hopefully they get us fixed soon
thank you!
what is the diamond level for mule deer now?
6 or 7
or 5
mostly 5
if you have resetted population or killed all the males of your map once
About ballistics and also prove that the 7mm has the flatest trajectory at long and very long distances/ranges: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2079460161 Enjoy it everyone...
Also tells that we can get away most of times with the 150m (standart) range setting when use that close/far perk for the riffles, instead of the 75m (close) range
Awesome stuff @last hemlock , thanks
Awesome stuff @last hemlock , thanks
@sonic ore You're welcome, is not mine but find it very informative, and probably everyone can use it as well. š
hi everyone, i need help š i would like to buy a weapon package in the hunter call of the wild, i just don't know which ones are good, i like long range shooting with a sniper. close by with a bow and arrow for example. hopefully can someone tells me what's smart to buyš playing on ps4

@quaint anchor Flinter made a good video about weapon packs, all have good and less good ones.
Thanks!
weapon pack 1 has the cb-165 crossbow for short range (and the .22lr, the only class 1 rifle); weapon pack 3 has the 30.06 for classes 4-8, I don't own this pack myself but if I'm not wrong this is a very popular weapon
I think the high tech pack includes some archery stuff (a sight I think), otherwise people don't seem to like it
overall, every pack usually has 1 or 2 very useful/powerful weapons, and the rest is meh, situational at best
š
Smoking barrels dlc has the M1 which is better than the bolt action 30-06 IMHO.
But check out Flinter's video as mentioned above
hello I wanted to resume the game after a break but I have a problem when I launch the game I have the load before the menu which loads infinitely the music in loop like the logo of chargment any idea ??
first thing I'd do is check integrity of files on steam (assuming you play on pc)
then I'd reinstall (this shouldn't delete your savegame but I'd backup it just in case)
if nothing works, check if your gpu ddivrs are up to date
i have a windows update can it be that?
how do i take a pic with my kill?
how do i take a pic with my kill?
@rigid timber I think can push P key, on PS4 it's Hold Square button.
So can anyone help me, I havenāt played COTW in awhile and hopped on today to find that I no longer have the .22 LR I have all dlc except for tree stands. Has anyone had this happen to them?
What platform are you on?
Hello,do we have a maps with all needs zones for every reserve?where I can find it?
Is it possible to reset population on console and what does it do if so also how if so
Not possible.
Mmk ty
Anybody know how you can invite someone into a private game from discord?
Got the answer, which I'm told is no.
@cinder fjord There are some excellent resources on the Steam forum with need zones.
Thanks a lot
Sure thing!
Albino? Yeah there kind of rare
A turkey
Im always messing up my shots any help? Should I practice at the range or somthing?
Going to the range helped me out in the beginning.
okay thanks ill try it
Stupid question but every so often I see a diamond appear in the bottom left of my screen. Is that just internet connection or does it mean something?
Autosave
Appreciate it
I don't know where to write this, but: The COTW survey about the ingame store seems to have already been closed, after one day. One day seems to me a bit fast to make a conclusion of the survey.. I just wanted to adress that if it wasn't intentional.
Can anyone help me, i'm stuck at the mission where you have to create hunting pressure in the mullerwald straw fields . I kill like 4-5 animals so it's bright pink but nothing is triggering etc. been stuck on this mission for half a year now and need to complete it to continue on the main story line of Hirshenfeld. Does it have to be boars killed only?
iirc you need to create pressure in three different spots inside that region, not all the pressure in the very same place
ahh they neglect to mention that in the mission, thanks
Does anyone know what shotgun is the best for Turkey in COTW?
12 gauge or 10 gauge both work
Any good hotspots for Iberian Wolves?
Hunt drink times you will see a lot more animals
Where are the shooting ranges at in the game?
Hirschfelden and parque
Where is it in Hirschfelden?
Bottom right
10/4 thank you
Where is it in Hirschfelden?
@serene tartan When leave your first outpost, cross the street and keep going till the end, you'll reach the range. At Parque, also cross the road from frist outpost, there will find the bow range. Enjoy your hunts..
@last hemlock thank you very much. I found it. Took me a few minutes to figure out but I got it
@last hemlock which part is it exactly you are having trouble with.
Ok do you think it was just laying because al lot of people where on internet
Lagging
Im not new to the game but I just cant get money and Im always missing my shots any help?
What shots are you missing? Long range? Short range? All of them?
For quick money, do story missions - they payout thousands and usually are simply traveling from A to B
Mostly long range and thanks Ill do them.
Do you have the Zeroing perk unlocked?
Just keep walking until you find the highlights. Look for the actual tracks and it should give to a general path to follow. I have the active tracks to the torch red color so they are easy to spot. Once you are finding continuous tracks just keep follow. Youāll find droppings as well. These will give you an estimate on when the tracked animal was there last. If the track says old or very old, I typically wonāt keep following unless I know exactly what zone they are going to
@last hemlock
AimFix is live on twitch right now. Heās a good guy to watch to learn how the tracks work
@last hemlock I definitely recommend changing the color and also using the hunter mate to help guide you as well
From harvesting animals and doing missions mostly
And hunt club which you can find in the bottom left of the pause menu which offers challenges for you to complete for money
Although it glitches a lot so you might get free money sometimes
Hey. Me and a friend tried geese hunting and we sat their for 30 minutes calling and nothing came
Is thier a mechanic where geese don't spawn if multiple people are there
Dont run all the time
@last hemlock good job dude!
@hardy jewel look up goose hotspots. You just may not be in an area where thereās a lot of them
Is there anyway to make this game behave better with two monitors? For awhile, I used a /borderless setting when launching and set some config option which seemed to help. Now, it seems to have reverted back to its old self, minimizing when I interact with the second monitor.
i have that too, havent found a fix yet.
Particularly annoying when you minimize and click back in, only to forget to have switched to a non firing slot and have it scare everything around you
I thought I had found a fix for it, but maybe I am mis-remembering. First time playing since the footprint sounds vanished.
It's been that way for as long as I can remember. I've just learned to right click instead of left when returning to the game.
Actually.... I'm checking now and mine seems to be behaving correctly.
I can't tell which is scarier, when I use to know there were bears all around me that I couldn't see, or all the jump scares Im getting when I turn and there is a Moose or some other animal 5 feet from me that I never noticed
/borderless as a launch option and windowed mode on for in-game settings is my current configuration.
That is what I have, but it seems to not be working anymore for me
I did get a new cpu, but I cant imagine that changed anything
Does your windows key break you out of the game?
I was pretty sure I had that working with the setup you described before
But now, doesn't seem to be the case
No, Windows key does nothing.
Alt tab or what I normally do is hit M and open the map seems to be working fine though.
I do the map technique in case I forget and left click. LOL
Yea, I thought I use to be able to do that and keep it from being minimized too. Maybe I have to go back into config again
I try to remember to do that.. but I often forget
Shouldn't be anything in the config that needs changed.
I know I changed something in the config, and when I did that, it wouldnt let me change window or fullscreen in game anymore. Well, it would, but I couldn't apply
There was when I did it, I think because when I originally applied the /borderless option, I was in full screen or vice versa
Then I manually had to change it in config, because it would no longer respond to apply in game
Applying changes in-game can sometimes be a pain. You need to click the name of the setting instead of apply. It usually works fine at the main menu though.
So... if I set it to /borderless and then change the game to Fullscreen instead of Windowed if acts the way yours does. If set to windowed mode it functions as intended. Maybe yours is stuck in Fullscreen mode?
lol idk what I just did
Its now in "8bit mode"
I think what it did was put it in 800 x 600 or something, but scale it to borderless fullscreen
haha oh man, but now the mapping for the curser doesnt line up with the display
So I have to guess where I am in the menu
Had to alt f4 out of that. whatever I did, the pc really didnt like it
HA
haha idk, it didnt minimize for 1 click
then it did
At least I got it back to a normal resolution
Oh, I don't remember this steam option before. What is Steam Input Per-Game Setting
Is that talking about command line input
or actual keyboard / mouse input
hey! Its still clunky, but not minimizing
We did it!
š
Anyone know how to find whitetail deer and mallard need zones on Layton lake
Hunt around and find them
For wt check by roonachee
Go spot deer at around 13:00 or 13:30 and for mallard go at 8:00 or 16:30
Mallard by southern cheelah outpost
@visual cliff These are all my WT zones on my map that I know of. I set the time to 12.15pm then I have set tents up at each zone for ease of travel. The numbers above 9 are the feeding zones I have found and hunt them after drink time ends at 15.30pm. I am on PS4 so might be different for you. Hope this helps you. Oh and you get a lot of ducks in these zones too at these times
well im not really the run n gun type of player, more of the set up a blind and decoys
so where would i want to go for that
No wait, I'm showing you where I've setup my blind
Where those 2 rivers meet is a large island with 3 blue dots on the south west side of it. Where the top dot is, is where I have my blind
Also there's a large lake at 9, that's another great spot for ducks
no worries and good luck
you'll probably need to bring a tent at my spot. But the spot at the lake there's an outpost right next to it
alright cool youre the best
no, I just play cotw too much š
Thank you so very much @barren agate i play on pc and Xbox so it might be different but ill definitely check it out
@visual cliff You are welcome
Does anyone know any good spots for wildebeest I saw a video where they were bedded near a beach like near the sandy shore area.
Those sandy beaches are typically around the river that goes around the reserve
but what exact area they are. And what video it is
I have no clue what video you watched.
how do i use the tree stands to hunt, as in where to place them in order to bow hunt
You equip them and trees that are compatible with them will be highlighted
i know how to place them, my question is where i should place it in order to find the most amount of animals
like at the edge of an opening, next to a water hole, etc
Water
water 100%
Trying to get to the top of the mountain in Vurhonga. Any tips would be appreciated. In my frustration, looked up two posts, but those routes I've already tried. If anybody has made it up there and can give additional pointers, please let me know. Thanks.
I remember someone did it and iirc even posted a pic on this discord
so it's definitely doable
Yeah, part of the reason for checking for posts, to make sure it is doable. Spent a whole day on it yesterday - lol. Hopefully someone has done it recently, to confirm some update didn't take it away.
I've tried to search on both general and this channel, didn't find anything, it's weird
You can search discord?
Well, I'll be darned, there is a search box right up at the top - lol
That is helpful, thanks for the pointer!
@sonic ore
Look at the west side bye the river. On both sides of the mtn. there are trails going up to the top one side has a outpost
Good luck
@last hemlock Any additional info would be appreciated, as I spent 10 hours hopping around on the west side of the mountain - lol
I've climbed them in Layton, but this one is giving me fits.
@sonic ore
Let me get the system up and I'll take pictures
What are some good wt spots? I want a Diamond wt for my 10th diamond
Is their Keyboard and mouse support for xbox
so if im not mistaken female animals cant spawn as males? or if i am completely wrong theres a reason my srp is full of cows and no bulls
No @hardy jewel and I do play on Xbox and when I found out I was sad
@vestal grove females cannot spawn as males itās just that most of the RME populations are females
Thought so
anyone esle having the game freeze before the main menu?
Why cant i get a single Duck in Layton.
I called for Like 2 hours and nothing came
I would Love the Duck hunt to be Like in Classic but right now its just Trash
Someone have some Tips for me?
cheelah lake @lost yacht
or any body of water really
sonetimes you walk up on them n accidently spook em
best times imo are early morning or like throughout the day when the lake isnt busy
@upbeat drum Thx.
np also ducks spook easy so like sneak up to the edge of the wayer n get your setup ready before they get there or as theyre there
they dont really come to you when already in water
Do you guys have some Hotspots for gees??
good whitetail spots?
@winter solstice Scroll up a little and I have a detailed map with all my best wt locations
Does anyone else have issues with duck hunting? I use to have a blast duck hunting, but now I call for hours and not a single duck shows up. There are always hordes of ducks at the Roonachee outpost, but thatās it.
I don't hunt them myself but yeah, it has been reported many times
good whitetail spots?
@winter solstice check out my whitetail guide on youtube recently should help you bag some
how recent was it posted?
Sorry if this is a "often asked question" but do tents impact the surrounding animals / spawns? I did a few google searches and got "Yes" and "No" answers.
Yes, for the surrounding 100-300 meters they cannot spawn i think
Will move it then. At the Lake in Mount Kraken looking for Black Bear š¦

Enjoy your hunts, have fun
anyone know any good fox spots im trynna get the grind for them started
thankyou! @last hemlock
@winter solstice make sure youāre managing and protecting the WT herds you do have.
cheelah lake is a good place to find any remaining WTs
i found 2 males and a doe together somewhere in the lower map
so is there any way at ALL to pause the game while you are playing?
say if you are playing and you get called away for dinner do you just have to go prone in game or leave or is there some way to pause the game
Not that Iāve seen.
why isnt that a thing like it is on classic? being able to pause a single player campaign would be a blessing
Any tips on how to play well, I'm pretty good at classic but cotw is pretty different and I can't pause
I'm not the best with the game yet as I've no one to teach me in game, and in classic I'm used to being able to walk through bushes etc. Without making noise to scare away the animals
Also what's the best thing to do when you say, find a herd feeding and try to call in the bucks, but some females from the herd make the walk around first but you really want the males but aren't confident about your shot
females and low level males will always come first to your calls... that's why I stopped using them
so you want to find the best animal in the group and to position yourself to have a good shot... after that, if you're able to shoot a second and third time, fine; if not, low level animals will probably come back after a while
For Cape Buffalo does the 7mm work? I have Polymer tipped bullets and hit them at 170m twice but no Lung shot. Looked good on the screen and was definitely in the side behind the leg. Was a Mythical and he ran me over. Did the same to a very hard and he laughed at the bullet. Am I too far away?
poly tips with the 7mm work pretty well for me on cape
As long as it's lung/heart they'll drop fast
hhmm Maybe I am aiming too far forward then as I never get lung penetration. Only Flesh in the side. How close are you when you fire?
do any of yall know any good lynx or jackal spots i want to start the grind for them since I already have a coyote
@analog ridge pretty close since all the cape on my map seem to want me dead. But water buffalo i have hunted effectively at a couple hundred meters and they have more or less the same body type in game
anybody very experoanced down to hunt?
Experienced*
How do I finish this "Take a Picture from a Fallow Deer" misison on Hirschfelden?
I took pictures from multiple ones
dead ones and the list goes on but I never finished it
I took like 15-20 pictures already
Must it be male?
I hope everyone is having a great day. I can't dm anyone so i guess i will post this here. Can someone please tell me or contact me about how to become a community content creator. I love this game and i consistently top the directory on twitch when i stream and also have started creating YouTube content for this amazing game.
@maiden glen Checked the pinned messages in one of the many community channels. #š¢ļø“creator-videos for example.
Thank you will do
Hi, a friend joined my MP server and I can see him but he is unable to move or do anything. Is this a known issue? Is there a fix?
aaah ok we fixed with a DNS flush
what is the max rifle score you can get?
Don't think there is a max
i mean from a harvest
Not totally sure... 60-ish?
Actually, i wonder how long or ingame days it takes when a hunting pressure spot goes away? Have one where i killed only 3 animals and it's there already for approximately 1.5weeks. Not normal to me i guess..
Thx in advance !
it goes away as you put pressure somewhere else
Thx, not noticed that, will look at it š
It was said in the past that after three in-game days that pressure would start to be cleared by itself. I'm not 100% that's true though and who wants to set there for three days to wait and see anyway. LOL
rofl, yes indeed, of course, i can try to do some other things like, hunting shades and for all outposts for 3 ingame days, and then see what that pressure spot does ^^
Thx PicS
I've never had the patience to actually test it.
Will test it out, or when get tired of it, make/create another pressure spot, not to close to the existing one.
Anyone on PS4 willing to show me what Iām doing wrong? I canāt seem to get kills... hardly find any animals. Follow tracks to dead ends all the time. And canāt make any money to upgrade to purchase anything. Been trying for over a year off and on... love the game, but canāt seem to get really into it when I get a kill once a week if Iām lucky.
Iād ask a specific question about what Iām doing wrong, but I wouldnāt even know where to start... lol
Not on PS4, but typically people scare them off via sight/sound. You can check your codex under "Hunter Profile" to get an idea.
Finding drink zones by water, spotting them from far away will get you to see the most animals.
What is a great way to hunt Yotes?
@slim light as PDubbs said, the most likely reason for your problem is you scare animals off; as a rule of thumb, don't run unless you know what you're doing, crouch when you get to a very fresh poo
and most of all, stalk around water bodies, hide in the bushes and you'll see plenty of animals going to drink
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1keREon4WCiBhbqxvLEyKgJUfBL8hXF7NRICTVgEe1Rg/edit#gid=1506673761
use this if you look for a specific species, but luckily you'll see animals pretty much at most times of the day
Thanks @dark mango and @sonic ore. How do u suggest getting to these areas? Run? Drive? Walk? I feel like I get there and nothing happens. Am I clearing the area trying to get there? Or on my way I see a track and follow it to nothing. I just canāt seem to advance. One day I sat in a blind for 7 real life hours. And saw 1 doe. Lol
@slim light If it is really far away, I use an ATV, but those scare everything within 400 yards. Otherwise, when approaching a zone, I tend to run until about 400 yards, walk in to 300. then slow crouch at 200 and start calling/glassing/listening with pauses.
Always approach with the wind blowing away from the zone.
For picking up zones, I'll walk up a river system and spot animals, again having the wind blow away from the opposite shoreline I'm glassing.
Can do the same with lakes
The spreadsheets with times help, go to the water when things are drinking. In the beginning, stick with deer until you can get high caliber weapon, like .270 with poly tips.
Huge question. Im playing Hirshfelden, I can't find any animals or animal sign, Im walking in Schonfeldt Fields and just hear the craziest noise. Sounded like a creature calling out nonstop for like 3 minutes, but I get no prompt to see a call and it kinda sounds heinous, like a turnkey gone insane or something.
Did they add creatures into the old maps for Halloween?
Im serious though. Im a level 60 hunter and there's no animals in any of the old maps, not even sign
What the heck. Im walking around and I hear it again! No indication whatsoever, and its driving my dog crazy.
I finally got a Fox to register, but it doesn't sound like any fox I've heard, the thing sounds distressed
@slim light try first layton, or any other map with large plains where you have plenty of visibility and can spot animals from afar
don't worry too much on approaching lakes/rivers, even if you scare animals nearby, you still should be able to see those from the opposite side (just keep in mind the game only renders up to 420m away)
use the spray that kills your own smell, it helps a bit
@last hemlock sfx don't work well right now
and as for the population, maybe you want to reset it
there are maps less populated than others though
hirschfelden has few animals, silver ridge is blooming with them
@dark mango how do I reset it? Do I need to delete my profile or something?
I've never done myself, I assume you need to delete the specific file, just back it up before
Ah... Im on PS4
Hello, I don't suppose anyone would mind helping answer a few questions? There's a few things I'm not entirely sure about, and I want to understand before actually spending £70 on buying the game.
Something I'd like to know, is how can you find out the maximum possible weight an animal can be? In a video of a YouTuber I watch he talks about how some of his best Diamond trophies on the new scoring system were both the 'Highest maximum score and weight'
But how exactly do you know what the highest score an animal can achieve is, and their weight? Is there a chart somewhere that lists what the maximum is? Is it listed somewhere in the game?
there is a chart, i can try and find it to give you the link if you want
I would love that thank you.
The only charts I've seen merely list what weight is needed for an animal to be Diamond rank, but never state what the maximum weight an animal can be is.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/d/1hqPdHIf0Y9tcObCZn0yu8uO6Rx_jPHLD6Qu5nSVQoYM/htmlview
this one shows everything but max weight i think
Thank you both, they'll be extremely helpful. :D
One other thing, is there a weight limit depending on gender? For example, it says a Gemsbok can be a maximum weight of 240kg, but is that for both males and females?
males will always be heavier than females i think
and females can almost never make diamond
can they ever make diamond?
oh, almost never hunted them
but thatās because females have the same horn sizes as the males
i spend most my time on layton, yukon and fernando
Actually gemsbok are one of the only animals where horn size scales are swapped
The females are generally bigger than males
You see a lot of diamond female gemsbok but Iāve only ever seen like 4 diamond male gemsbok posted.
Even a level 4 female can make diamond but the male HAS to be level 5 and even then itās chances are low
Iāve gotten no diamond or rare animal on Parque and I know usually when you buy a map it starts out with a few diamonds and rares so Iām wondering if Iām missing a hotspot or something
how do respawns work?
Uhh the more you shots things chances increase of getting better things
EW seems to keep us mostly in the dark about that.
I have terrible luck on Parque but I really like blackbuck and axis deer
Does someone know why they made a 2021 CotW edition pls? It seem nothing new in it, have bought in past the Complete collection and when i clicked to checked it out, i have it all (on steam & ps4).
Maybe a way for those who want to have more, but no need to have it all i guess?!
@last hemlock it's for new people.
Aah, new ones who like to buy some of things or dlc more, but not the whole/complete pack. Can be interesting that way indeed Scrubje
can you kill a europian bison with a 270?
Yes but it wont give integrity
I wouldn't even try to do thay youd be chasing it for a while
Just gotta spray em down a bit
Heavy grinding but it isnt suggested since aome racks dont spawn
okey thx
@kindred plinth This spreadsheet is AMAZING. It has all the info you need. Down the bottom where it says medal requirements will show you diamond weights. Each section is full of info from weapons for each class and animal feeding/resting/drinking zones. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bK_Ij_ivIQbmQvz0uH7ubLEODWnZ5YoEfkB21icBRxE/edit#gid=1506673761

I don't know why but i have done the population reset. I still find I don't know if they are hacked or glitched. All 5mediums are max weight. And I find them in almost all herds. And I promise I don't hack. And I havent played COTW for 5 days.
And im talking about Axis deer.
Is duck hunting fixed (not counting running around and popping them with a 22)?
What time do axis drink
4-8:30
Whats this about?
@last hemlock you probably dont have enough RAM to run it, or you're running too many applications at once and should close some before trying to run the game. Check your specs against the minimum and recommended specs.
Also, do a restart of your computer and make sure you have enough storage left, could be too many things installed ect
How do u enable that menu
The trophy rating one. Mine only shows the rating and the medal
you probably dont have enough RAM to run it, or you're running too many applications at once and should close some before trying to run the game. Check your specs against the minimum and recommended specs.
@last hemlock No I had enough ram its just the computer was using enough of it. But I fixed it now (:
@orchid moss Wdym? That's the old score sheet.
im going to buy cotw. are there any like starter packs i can buy?
Console or PC?
PC
They have a few packs in the steam store
ok
Im about 20k off from the 7mm what do you guys reccomend to get the cash fast?
Geese
id buy the caller but im tryna save
Oh, if you don't have the goose pack, not quick cash.
i got the ground blinds and 20 gauge if thats the pack
yeah i have that
Hey all question , dont really understand the weapons and ammo just yet anyone that can help me out?
trying to hunt bear and blacktail atm for a mission im level 7 any advice which weapon to take
The best thing I can suggest to you @ROCK3TH is to get the weapon pack with the 30-06 rifle. For me it was a game changer early on and you can hunt the two animals you mentioned with it.
also use polymer tip rounds whenever possible as they have alot more penitration which is rewarded in this game. It also brings the animal down faster so less tracking involved
Gotcha i have that weapon thanks alot
are there any lures or callers for bear
Any tips on FOV
?
No lures for bears, they are easy enough to find as they are very vocal when you get near them. I use 90 fov, but it's different whoever you ask.
There are callers for the bears. Fawn one.
Oh yeah, sorry just never use one š
Classic doesn't have bear callers š
How do i turn the stupid sounds off when i spot a need zone and claim a animal
Where's the best map/place to hunt duck and rabbit?
Why does cotw keep crashing when I join i. It doesen't even say anything just comes up with a error.
I had an issue where I "didn't have enough memory to run it" Even tho I did. I fixed that and now I cant run the game.
btw this happened after the new update.
@lost fjord ngl that doesn't help at all..
Greets, after the update on Ps4 of CotW, after i shot 1silver Blacktail, then at Hirsch, 1 Silver Fallow, 2gold Roe, and 5 gold Fallows, and ALL of those were 100pct quick kills, the Hunt Club stuff gave me nothing, but it counted the kills. Also i saw i was suddenly logged out on the Hunt Club, and could not activate it, have restarted the game and then it worked, it counts, but i still don't see anything that it gives me the extra ingame money, and yes, i got the 7 required 100 quick kills needed (actually i did 8 quick kills and got no extra money at all. but it counts them in the hunt Club menu, which i find very weird. There goes the many extra i could get of it, grrrf
Someone have the same issue pls? (it was on PS4pro, single play)
Thx in advance..
@last hemlock might be better to post this in the #704631659630166057 channel
after the axis update, i have a 50/50 chance of seeing tracks from axis deer
i've lost two lvl 5 axis deer, because they've dropped no tracks after i've shot them, and their bodies don't highlight either
Hello, I need your help for White Iberian wolf mission...
I lost it...
also I have lost an injured Reindeer in Taiga...
So I'm trying to hunt small game. I what's the best maps and places and equipment to do so?
@last hemlock the .22LR is by far the best weapon for small game. I believe its part of weapon pack 1 DLC. Other than that the best maps would be Layton as it has both Ducks and Rabbits.
@remote monolith thanks! And specific place on layton? I'm trying to get my pistol score up as well
Im not sure. I never really focus on small game, only shoot them when i run into them.
after the axis update, i have a 50/50 chance of seeing tracks from axis deer
i've lost two lvl 5 axis deer, because they've dropped no tracks after i've shot them, and their bodies don't highlight either
@next verge
I had the same problem where it wouldnāt show the tracks or the blood of the animal I shot
I just ended up restarting the game and it fixed
So I've leveled up twice now and haven't received any perk or skill points, any one know what's up?
@last hemlock
Best way to get pistol score is to use the 45 and go to hirsh. and hunt female fallows and roe. Wild boar is a good way to level up.
@last hemlock
You past level 36 ??
If so you only level up every 3
@last hemlock yea, just hit lvl 39, is there any way off maxing all skills and perk?
At the end of 39 you will level up
Okay
Max skills is 22
Perks same
At level 60 that's it.
When I say 22 that is each pick. So like skill tracking has 3 things for skill points and when looking at codes it will only show 1, because it is showing each level
I hope that helps
You need anything else
Just message, if you are on xbox I can show you how my maps are set up
@last hemlock
so guys i gotta question multiplayer and single player im running into a glitch either my animals arent leaving blood splatters or they are but not the arrow or other tracks what should i do
Yeah same I was wondering if anyone has found a fix yet
so guys i gotta question multiplayer and single player im running into a glitch either my animals arent leaving blood splatters or they are but not the arrow or other tracks what should i do
@hardy bolt I restarted and it went away. But I did read somewhere that you can use your torch and it will show up. That never worked for me though. Good luck as it is IRRITATING.
Is there a list of guns and their distance drop off?
Like when you need to start aiming up more
The basic zeroing for rifles is 150m if I remember right.
There is a shooting range in Hirsch, south-east corner in an island.
Fernando has bow range if you want to test those out too
Should give you good info where to aim with different distances.
Have fun and happy hunting! š
Ty and you 2
How is the best way to walk up to animals
Like at what distance should I crouch and etc
you can safely run up to 180-200m
i would start crouching at maybe 100
but why walk up to them if you have callers
shameless plug https://youtu.be/x_7xebgwVtA

Shameless watch
anybody siberian musk deer guide where to hunt and when
All around medved
but why walk up to them if you have callers
because the higher the animal level, the less likely they'll come to your calls
so you won't hunt a lot of golds and diamonds by just sitting and calling
Just subbed, @shrewd hare didn't even know you had a channel!
All around medved
@arctic moth yeah but i mean is there any specific hotspots like lakes or?
They are like all around the mao
Do you get an achievement from hunting the great one?
Map
i was curious to see how many had gotten the achievement, but i dont see any achievement for it. y no achievement?
It's an achievement in itself just to get one!
Captain, appreciated much š
Well true. Just weird that theres an achievement for rare fur variations, but there aint one for the great one.
Quick question, what's the best time to hunt geese in hirsh? And what's the best layout for decoys?
I like the decoys close, 5-15m, as they land by them
They seem to fly all the time for me, 7-11 is good
Actual layout, I haven't seen that it matters
Besides 15-20 decoys... I run 15
@sonic ore so I need spacing of 5 - 15 and 15 - 20 decoys, and hit em when they land?
5-15m is distance from me.. I just space them
Alright, cheers, I have mine like 40 - 60
I personally wait till they all land most of the time.
I usually set up in the middle of the field, easier to find the downed ones
What's best? Over under shotty or the 20g
Once I unlocked the 12g six shot.. I just kept using that.
Easier to go 6 for 6.
12g just made more sense to me, cause they are geese... not sure if 12g vs 20g is any different in the game birdshot wise. Maybe a bigger thicker pattern in 12ga at the range... don't remember
Anybody,i need help

Does that support page actually work?
Ive never had any issues with it. I usually get responses within 24 hours.
Iām on 2 days and waiting atm
Iām bad at hunting help
@past surge what's wrong
Iām just bad lol
I can barely find animals and when I do I either scare em, miss, or hit non organ
@past surge ah new member well go to the lakes and see if u can find some there
See I do but I find little to none
and go by the lungs
Like Iāve been to 4 lakes Iāve seen two fallow deer both of which I killed and a fox and a few roe deer
Ok
Ty
I also donāt know if Iām not finding a lot of animals or if I just have unrealistic expectations from YouTube videos
@past surge did u start looking for tracks as well?
it takes some time don't worry
Yeah
@past surge hey
Hi
That looks really helpful
do gold rank animals respond to callers? i'm trying to get a heart shot on a gold grizzly bear but i feel like my caller is only bringing in the low level bears
Yes they do. But higher scoring animals will come to callers a bit slower. They are more cautious so it'll take a bit longer.
can you hunt canada geese effectively without decoys?
i dont have the dlc and im just wondering
Not really. They don't really land so you need the decoys and caller to get them to break and come down.
how does 5 pin sight work on bows?
i watched one vid but it explains it in imperial system
and i use the metric one
How rare are blackgold wild boars and pristine Iberian wolves? Hopped on Cuatro for the first time and got them
I know theyāre probably classified as uncommon, but it appears some uncommons are far harder to come by than others
those blackgold boars are pretty rare.
what about spirit bears?
i got one and was pretty happy but when i got a second one i thought they're uncommon and didnt tax it
Those are uncommon
oh okay
I can't find any Red Deer in Bondhorf Canyon Hirschfelden
Any tips?
there are very few of them, probably one single herd
keep searching and hope for the best
What are some good spots for gredos and south eastern ibex
Is there anyway to get a deer that disappeared?
Not really. Last time I was able to confirm one my game crashed. but maybe theres a way
Hey does anyone know what would happen if one started a public multiplayer session, people joined, one then left their session and the others continued to hunt?
Would the pressure zones, need zones, dead animals etc from those that joined be on the old hosts map when they get back on?
Or would that then become a direct copy of the original hosts map but nothing will actually be different to when the host left?
I ask this as I was wondering if I left my own session and different people kept joining it could theoretically never end and I would have no control over it
As soon as the host leaves, someone can shoot all the diamonds on that map and the host will still have them on his/hers
Yea
So no changes occur to the hosts map whatsoever from the moment they leave?
Nope
Ok thank you!
So do diamonds depend just on looks or also how well you hit them? Iāve gotten some golds with one shot drops but never a diamond. If I mess up a shot on a diamond, will it de-rank?
Yes, if you don't past the harvest check, you get dropped one trophy level.
That applies to all levels, not just diamond
@pine spruce i think 12
The doc mission in the beginning for a night time harvest of a black or white tail what time is considered night?
19:00
thanks man
Hey i have a question
what weapon/weapon pack is the best for hunting in vurhoga savanna
cuz idk to much bout the guns that is good for the animals there
im sry if im in the wrong channel again to ask a question
it all depends on what animals you want to hunt, cause every map has low, mid and high class animals
if you like class 1 ones (rabbits, turkeys or, in vurhonga, hares), the .22lr is a must; it's in pack 1 iirc
the map itself includes the .470, which is a c9 rifle with very short range that many people don't seem to like
in weapon pack 2 you have the solokhin (classes 3-7) and the grelck, which you can use as a shotgun (classes 1-7 with different ammo) or as a rifle (classes 5-9)
you might also consider archery, though I don't do it myself, maybe somebody could give you advice on this
if you're a newcomer, you might want to stick to the .243, which is a good rifle (2-6)
so guys, when a mission is to hunt from a ground blind, for example 'go to Hope's Camp in Balmont and harvest a kill downed from a ground blind'
I have to use one of the preset, DIY-built $1700 ones already in the map right? I can't use the DLC 'tent' style blinds?

@hardy lion Ow just saw your message in other section, answered there actually. hehhe š
orange water buffalo are uncommon right?
no it does not.
URGENT: does anyone know what to do when you canāt harvest an animal in multiplayer on Xbox? After many hours I finally found an albino mountain lion and canāt harvest
Nevermind it despawned...
How do you look at the pictures you take with your in game camera I can't figure it out?
I believe on console you canāt. At least thatās what Iāve heard others say
I was starting to believe that thanks
you're welcomee
so I posted in general already but figured I should post here too:
If you get a mission saying 'harvest animal downed from a ground blind'
the DLC 'tent' ground blinds DO count, not just the wooden ones you can build.
But then wat about the waiting it out mission. Harvest a moose in willipeg from a hunting stand. Like a tripod or a treestand?
Is there supposed to be a invalid target lvl 5 reindeer in the mission know your reindeer
Where can I harvest a bison??
@arctic moth I can't answer that, I don't have the tripod/treestand DLC yet.
someone will have to experiment like I did-- maybe you? š and share findings with the class
@pine spruce what- š
@pine spruce happend to me to its something with the files i tried fixing it but it didnt work but when i got my new pc the game finally worked i lost a few 1000 coins and all my weapons where gone
can you go 3rd person on a atv?
Yes. On PC it was C-key if I remember right. Don't know about console.
thx
You should be able to check it from the keybinds if it's not that.
it is C-key
Nice š Have fun!
What does the purple area on the map mean again?
@stone raptor its the area you have shot at something
@stone raptor Hunting pressure, check the ingame codex for more info.
when pressure is too high, need zones may disappear from that area
so ideally, you want to hunt all over the map, or to be more precise, not overhunt your areas of interest
also, hunting from a stand decreases by a large margin the pressure you create
Ah okay and the need zones, do they go away after you get an kill at them or will always be there?
they go away as you kill animals somewhere else
I saw a Flinter vid where he said, if you get 'tier 4' hunting pressure in an area, it will make the need zone icons disappear but the zone itself won't
so like animals will be very unlikely to use that area, but it's not totally wiped from the map. Unless something's changed, I think that vid was about a year old if I remember?
Anyone have any advice on a map I could use to efficiently skill up handgun? A map suggestion with a higher amount of 2-5 tier that can be called would be great!
@compact frost
A great way to get scores up on handguns
Get the 45
Hunt hirsh
Roe, fallow, and boars sides shots
Fernando
Female blackbuck, axis
Sides shots
After you get scope and get 44
Use the hard noise
Wolves taken down immediately
You will score points very quickly using this

Is there any reason whatsoever to use soft/hollow point bullets, if you can afford the polymer/hard tips?
I have yet to see an advantage of soft points over poly in the game.
Well this would go in #491900827686928384 but you could try adjusting video settings
Idk dont play classic much
Any tips on how respawn work ?
Shoot an animal and another one of the same gender spawns in, it can be bigger or smaller and can spawn in the same herd or sometimes another herd
Ok thanks. Does it spawn in right away ?
No it usually takes 1-6 in game days
Ive seen that when i get bigger aninals they tend to take 2+ days
so I know bullet/arrow drop is a thing at certain distances, but does the wind direction also affect your shots?
Wind direct affects arrows
Ok thanks
Last question haha how they take day why if you change the time and skip some days does they make them spawn ?
Yeah if you skip time to a different day it counts
@sonic ore
Soft points do better the closer you are to the animals.
Instead of just straight thru them. The soft points expand and does more damage.
A great explain
Thank hollow point 454 and go wolf hunting. The hollow takes out quicker
If you can't tell
Try it with the 44 and you will see it
Also go shoot a moose from the same distance
It will go further with the pol. Then the self
This only works 125 meters and shorter
@hardy lion
Ok thanks bro
so I know bullet/arrow drop is a thing at certain distances, but does the wind direction also affect your shots?
@hardy lion affects arrows alot and bullets a bit from long ranges
any tips for hunting red deer and/or fallow deer on hirsch
East of Mullerwald Western outpost is good for red
Sorry... west of Mullerwald Western.... East is good for Fallow.
Try between Mullerwald and Ritterstein Lake output for fallow
yeah i have a tent with a tripod and geese decoys at old muller
ive managed to snag a few geese and the buck off of a huge red deer herd (there were legit 20-30 stags)
i just want that sweet, sweet diamond red in my lodge
So Iv been managing my white tail by killing all the males and Iv noticed a few of my need zones only have females in them and itās like no new ones will respawn
Yeah that happens from time to time. If you go back to the same zone a few times and no males respawn, just kill all the females and it should produce another zone elsewhere. This is just my theory though and has worked a few times for me on my map.
Ok appreciate it
Help me please, I've tried everything but I can't play because of this problem.
Please Help me...

Ok
So I should have the steam sync check on ?
Steam sync doesn't save you if you don't realize the files are corrupted and it uploads to the cloud, I had that happen when I first started the game... lucky was only level 7.
There is a COTW backup tool on steam I use.
O ok I gotcha. How does the COTW steam backup work ?
The backup tool, or the cloud saves?
How you can backup steam games is that what you mean when you say the COTW save tool ?
Google "COTW backup tool steam"
ok do you have to download it ?
@short apex Yes
ok thanks its call Cotwbacker or somthing like that ?
does anyone know how to fix the claim animal not claiming glitch

what is minimum trophy rating for a diamond blacktail?
I think 177.50
ok...i m on a need zone turkeys from 5 am to 3 pm..arrived at 5.30 installed 5 decoys each..i m waiting for 40 minutes..nothing..what am i doing wrong guys lol?..ok...50 minutes now and nothing
wait..i hear a sound finally
I have the zeroing ability and when I use it it gives me random numbers like 82yd and 328yd. Is there a way to make it more accurate like 100yd and 300yd.
@abstract lodge
It's set up for meters
Use 75m 150m 300m
The game will give you yardage, but its makers are from Europe were the meter systems is used
Oh ok thank you
Marker I meant makers
so I know after a certain level you stop getting skills/perks every level, and it starts going like every other level
so I hit lvl 38, didn't get anything. Ok, I'm at that point, I thought.
and now I just hit lvl 39, and still didn't get anything?
just have to keep leveling up
well yeah but 2 levels in a row I don't get any skills/perks? I thought it was only 1.
nah mine did the same thing i went for a few levels without getting any.
At 37 its every 3
every 3?? sheesh they really don't want us having all the perks n stuff do they
that seems a bit unreasonable.
so from here until lvl 60 I'm only going to get like what, 2 more skills and 2 more perks basically? that sucks.
Meh, lot of them are useless anyway
you know so far I've been a bit disappointed by Improvised Blind.
when I took the first level of Only Happy, I definitely noticed that every time it's foggy, my visual meter is a full level below what it normally would be
But improvised blind doesn't seem to work at all in fact, in some cases I seem to be more visible in a bush than I would be crouched out in the open.
actually I hate when you can take ALL perks/skills in a game
because if you don't need to choose... what's the point?
in any case, I think in cotw it's somewhat clear what are the best and the worst skills
^
do goose get spooked if you only have one type of goose decoy's placed?
or do tripod stands now spook them
I've only ever used the pop out blind, never thought to use others. Mine is set partially in some shrubs that lend to its camo factor. They generally don't spook till i shoot
@rustic wadi
If tripods are set, there's no problem
It's just like being in a blind
Decoys you need 15 out for max effect
@rustic wadi
Ways they spook
U moving on the ground, or the wind is blowing toward them
i think i figured it out.
@random notch
Try the tripod u are set up high and it doesn't spool
Also u can aim without moving, unlike in the blind when you aim u pop up
it was bugged i had a backpack on earlier and i took it off but for some reason they were broke so i just reloaded the game and it fixed them
i was playing with my GF and it was saying calm for her. but for me they were alert. and not responding to calls.
@rustic wadi @random notch

Any tips on finding lions on savannah? Itās a pain in my ass.
Been trying to look for one for the past 2-3 days, I donāt care if itās a bronze or diamond, I just want a MALE lion for my lodge lol
Please ping me or DM me answers.
Iāve seen a few but I hadnāt killed one yet because the game screws me or Iām just bad. One male lion I shot near the intestines with the 50 cal muzzle loader at like 50 feet away.
I know I hit it cus I saw the spatter and it said non vital organ hit or something with a. Medium bleed rate. The fucker got away lol
Central map to the east
Thatās where I found them
Did you track the blood down? Non-vital w/ medium bleed rate usually still dies, but not before running a ways first
At least in my experience. For me they only 'get away' aka dont die, when the bleed rate is low or very low
You'll have a crap rating on it, but it would have suited your lodge desires
I accidentally pressed B instead of saving the harvest on a bear I got, is there a way you can reverse this? I got a blonde black bear. I got clip.
Even though it was a bronze Iād still like to keep it
Blonde isnt rare
I know I like it though Iām really unlucky when it comes to different fur colors
I know
If you have a lodge you can go to trophy manager immediately after shooting the bear
Thing is I pressed B and it automatically thought I wanted to sell it
And itās on multiplayer
Apparently I have a piebald moose LMAO

oh god im so sorry wrong place
All good š
Shooting HIGH!!
a bullet is a terrible thing to WASTE!!
I waste 22s all the time
š same
I bought a dlc map and I went to download it and i would let me and said I had to buy call of the wild on the playstation again because i have it on disc can anyone help me
Where is a good place for a WT long shot?
@jovial eagle along the rivers probably.
Redfeather?
this is the Call of the Wild section.
What?
Can someone tell me how I pick up tree stands?
Y on console
And on ps4,
?
When I press square then I can just go on the tree
But theres no button like on the tent to pick up
Try X when looking at the bag next to the opening of the tent
It is E on the PC, not 100% on what it is on PS4
Ehhh I just made a example with the tent
Like I said there is no button to pick up the tree stand
The thing u hang on the tree
This
I cant pick it up
It doesnt show up
You might need to move around the treestand. There should be some white text the pops up on the right of the screen.
Sry, I'm on PC, wish I could be of more help.
Yes, that is hunting pressure
More of it in a different area.
anyone know if you can reset ur save game, me and my friend have basically everything and want to start over again because we have nothing to play for since there is nothing to buy and yeah
You can start a new game and it will reset everything
But there is no going back then
On PC you can backup the saves but no such on console I'm afraid
It's on the main menu, just press new game
But as I said, it will reset the whole game. You start lvl 1, no maps open etc
Trophy lodge doesn't reset though, right?
That I'm not sure
No, Trophy lodge will remain. All else will reset.
Nice good to know
The question is tho...
What happens with the weapons in the trophy lodge if your gun, bow, shotgun and handgun points are reset and you only have the beginner weapons
aye guys who know how to fix thats problem when i am joining my firend the game says Could Not Connect Host - Restart The Game and when am restarting game veryfing game files form the steam disabling firewall this does not helps and when my friend trys to join me he gets same problem and if u know how to fix or why am getting this error text me in pm or here.
So the crossbow, listed at effective range of appx 30 yds. Can i drop stuff decently at further ranges though? Thus far I've only shot at things I've called within effective range didn't want to risk losing anything i didn't have to
But I've seen the bows be effective at up to 100 yds, figured crossbows might be too
Yes
Crossbows can be use to 200 yards
That's good to know. I'm guessing bottom dot is 100 yds?
I just remember some weapons get pretty dodgy outside of their effective range. That's why i asked. I haven't played this game seriously in quite a while
Forget what the bottom dot is,I only use the top one with ranging
So am i to understand there's no drop in trajectory? Or...
You're saying to hit something 100+ yards out i should aim with the top dot?
Hm? There's drop, its not a laser
I'm saying I don't know what the range of the different marks are, as I only use the top one with the ranging perk
You mean zero in?
Range finding is a different thing and a distinct perk
I get what you mean now
I think I'll stick to bottom dot, i use a different perk, and I'm better off calculating the shot old fashioned style
Whichever the one is that changes your zero distance i mean, yeah
@random notch The range for the dots vary with the grain of bolt.
Hey guys i'm sure the info is somewhere out there but after 20 minutes of searching i couldnt find the information - i would like to play with a buddy of mine. is it correct, that i could buy the "complete" pack and he only the base game, and we could play all the dlc content together if i host the games?
Yes
Well maps, not weapons
And you can't do missions in multiplayer but you can hunt in all the maps together š
Ok so we still might have to consider getting either the 2019 or 2021 pack in addition
thanks. now we just have to figure out, what to buy.. š
are the missions worth doing for money or is it better to sticking to shooting deer and other smaller animals
They are a good starting point for money and exp. You can do them while hunting most of the time so it's good.
Also they tend to take you around the map so you explore at the same time too.
All of my non-geese diamonds I got while doing missions.
what 2 rifles would you recommend i use from level 2-8?
im currently using .223 and 6.5mm
30-06 If you can get it. Its good for going for moose,elk and gemsbok
Weapons pack 3 is like $4.99-$5.99 I think
And the 30-30 it's better for class 2 animals
But less range
@sturdy smelt cheers
Welcome
He should.
Yes he supposed to
He should
not if your wifis good
Whoever suggested a tree stand for hunting geese, good call. Makes spotting them all before having to shoot much easier
Tripod in a field also works
can someone please give me some coyote hunting tips on layton?
er, i actually just saw a blacktail doe pop out of existence 20m in front of me
Hi I really need help because my friend is unable to play the game after he just bought it
he'll get to when it loads
he'll get into the game for 10 secs twice
it crashes before he can pick a map or change options etc
rt 5700xt LATEST DRIVERS
r7 3700K
idk of any other unique stuff he'd have
it's on an nvme but mine is too
any launch options I can try?
Hey my game crashed when I was hunting an awesome 4 whitetail in Layton. He had one huge antler and one pathetic one and I really wanted him for the laughs. Will he still be on my map when I relog?
@pine spruce blacktail right? whitetail dont go up to 4's and blacktail have funky antlers rn
Hey guys Iām having a rough time finding good fallow deer spots, anyone got good areas to check cuz Iām trying to complete the huddle fallow mount and I only need 2 more big males
South part of Mullerwald
Sweet thanks guys
New player, was watching videos on loadouts and I'm confused about why they list 4-5 rifles. I have a .22 for 1, .243 for 2-6 and 30-06 for 4-8. No 9 on the map I'm on but when I get the 300 it covers 7-9 so if I can cover every class with 3 why isnt that more popular?
.22, .243, 7mm is popular
Saving for the 7mm too, that high accuracy on the 300 just sounds amazing
Some like to carry a heavy, as a 4-8 or 4-9 doesn't have as much punch as a .300 or a .338 on higher level animals
The 7mm has trouble with quick kill bonuses on 9s, just a heads up. If you're outside of effective range and you're worried about trophy rating, don't shoot get closer
Ammo type won't help either. I've been trying to get a gold plains bison for my lodge and its a struggle. Luckily though, bison are easy to stalk
Also, each bow covers all classes, you just have to change out your ammo
Does anyone have any tips for finding coyote in the mount leviathan area of lake district?
