Other animals can't hear the dog barking or the whistles. They will spook if the dog gets really close though. Like 10m radius I think

plain carbon
#

nice

#

also how do i bring up the dog menu?

#

nvm got it

#

Hey so i have recently killed a lot of roe deer in cuatro and now i cant find any im not too sure if they havent respawned yet but i cant find any at my lakes?

fierce wave
#

It take around 3 in game days for the to

#

And if you have a lot of hunting pressure they won't be there

#

To

grand glacier
#

3 in game days thats an ouch

#

What if i use the beds does it reset it

#

Also big question if i go and play multiplayer and come back after like 5 hours would they respawn because its past 3 in game days

hidden basin
grand glacier
#

Oh well you see

#

I use them often

hidden basin
grand glacier
#

So im pretty sure i have killed like all my roe deer trying to get a diamond

hidden basin
#

Alternatively, the respawns are in an area of the map you’ve never checked

grand glacier
#

Are you kidding theres no way that 5 irl hours isnt a full game day

#

I mean i just check all the lakes at drink times

hidden basin
hidden basin
grand glacier
#

What the hell

#

Im leaving my game on over night then

#

Thats insanely long

hidden basin
#

Easier trick: use the outposts, set the time back one minute

#

That will cycle through the entire day

grand glacier
#

But wont it reset the timer?

#

Can i sleep 3 days to get respawns

hidden basin
#

You can reset time back by one minute three times and that counts as three in-game days

grand glacier
#

And they respawn??

hidden basin
#

It’s a common trick people use to accelerate respawns

grand glacier
#

I thought for a second i was gonna have to wait 18 hours just to get roe deers to come back

hidden basin
#

You may also want to consider checking lakes you have not checked in a while or at all. Respawns may not spawn in the same area as the ones you originally killed

grand glacier
#

Maybe but i have checked all the big lakes ppl say to check there only like 3 lakes i havent checked

hidden basin
#

During my lynx grind I’ve had several hotspots go bone dry while some areas turned into goldmines

grand glacier
#

Ill take it into account i havent played for like a year idk anything

#

I just like roe deer and want a diamond

hidden basin
grand glacier
#

And then my mate was like you know there difficult

#

Oo i just noticed im rather poor

Is there a fix yet for the "Gold Mine" dynamite quest bug at all? I've had this bug since parque was released and i'd really like to finish the mission

#

i've shot it dead on from 'the' spot and nothing has happened

tranquil tundra
#

I was able to do that mission not too long ago, so if there's a problem it's on your end

#

Does anybody know how to get this outpost?

cerulean bolt
#

Does anyone have any advice on hunting mallards? I have 6 setups in Layton Lake, including blinds, decoys and that stuff... All of them are max 50m away from the nearest need zone, but I almost never get a chance to spot, or even see one. I also tried using caller several times, but there was no effect.

last hemlock
#

@cerulean bolt I always spawn with mallards in lakes lol

#

Hm

cerulean bolt
#

Good for you, but I'm obviously not that lucky

last hemlock
#

You on pc?

cerulean bolt
#

Yes

last hemlock
#

You got .22?

cerulean bolt
#

Yes

#

And 20 and 16g

last hemlock
#

Okay, lemme add you on discord rn and sometime we can play

#

I'll let you get mallard oj my map

#

Just no Diamond since I've been waiting to get a diamond

cerulean bolt
#

Thanks, but I just don't know what am I doing wrong

last hemlock
#

Do you have any tents near those need zones?

cerulean bolt
#

Yes

last hemlock
#

How close

cerulean bolt
#

about 100 m

last hemlock
#

If it's too close it can scare animals

#

Try 150 or 200 maybe

cerulean bolt
#

Yeah, i know

cerulean bolt
last hemlock
#

Okay, if it doesn't work sorry

cerulean bolt
#

anyway, thank you for the advice

yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup

like if nothing on that web page helps, it means the file's bricked

fierce wave
#

if you have a backup time and patience you might be able to fix it

hidden basin

if you have the luxury of time, you may be able to isolate which file was corrupted

i always make backups of my game every play session or two now

#

Am I the only one where the outpost is not takeable?

#

I tried 5 times to take it but i cant

#

I also switched the game

#

But nothing works

last hemlock
#

It’s part of a single player quest you have to do to claim it

empty rampart
#

That's stupid

hidden basin
# empty rampart That's stupid

not really. the story mission revolves around you setting up that outpost. i'd leave a tent there until you have completed that mission

I got a question why me not finding any diamonds I’m doing hotspots for diamond and rare grizzly not finding any for the past 4hours but other people straight away find them any help?

#

Ping me if u reply

hidden basin
last hemlock
#

Thanks

last hemlock
#

can the .22 pistol take any scopes

hidden basin
last hemlock
#

thanks

last hemlock
#

does the red dot work with the .22 pistol and witch dlc is the reflex sight in?

tranquil tundra
#

That scope is not worth the cash

#

seriously. I was aiming right at a boar once and I still missed somehow.

last hemlock
#

how do i get the reflex sight? is it in a dlc?

hidden basin
#

I am actually not sure which DLC it is in

#

Lemme check

last hemlock
#

ok thanks

hidden basin
#

From what I can tell, it seems like it comes with Vurhonga Savannah

last hemlock
#

thanks

toxic bane
#

nope, I don't have vurhonga but do have the reflex sight

hidden basin
#

Hmmmmm

#

I’m stumped

toxic bane
#

it's only compatible with 2 weapons

#

the 22LR pistol and the 20GA SxS

hidden basin
#

And the 470

toxic bane
#

oh

#

but i dun have it

#

hecc

hidden basin
#

I’m gonna guess wild goose chase gear

toxic bane
#

either that or the weapon pack that the 22LR pistol comes with

hidden basin
#

Since of those three weapons, the SxS 20ga was the first to come out

toxic bane
#

regardless it should be compatible with a lot more weapons

analog grail
#

The reflex site came for free with the release of vurhunga

hidden basin
#

Oh interesting

toxic bane
#

the vanilla red dot sucks

analog grail
#

Yes

hidden basin
#

Yeah the vanilla red dot is hot garbo

#

Even the reflex sight is an upgrade from it

toxic bane
#

i guess you automatically get the reflex sight if you own any weapon that is compatible with it

#

but yeh

hidden basin
#

Maybe?

toxic bane
#

I mean if it came out with Vurhonga, but I don't own Vurhonga and yet still have it for the 22LR pistol and 20GA SxS

#

I dunno if there's a better explanation

hidden basin
#

Probably yeah

tranquil tundra
#

wait you talking about the red raptor one?

#

because that's the one that I tried using before

toxic bane
#

red cross reflex?

#

or the red dot

tranquil tundra
#

red raptor reflex

#

that thing is a piece of shit

#

had a boar practically right in front of me and I still somehow missed with it

toxic bane
#

lemme shoot these geese rl

#

and I'll check

hidden basin
tranquil tundra
#

the marksman one?

hidden basin
#

Yes

tranquil tundra
#

haven't tried that one

hidden basin
#

Much better than the red raptor garbo

#

Smaller dot, smaller sight

#

Only compatible with a handful of weapons tho

toxic bane
#

For reference: this is the Red Raptor Reflex Sight

#

And this is the Marksman Exakt Reflex Sight

#

red raptor? more like red sharpie

last hemlock
#

i just bought weapon pick 3 and the "Marksman Exakt Reflex Sight" did come with

Layton mission - Vualez: Late night with the dogs

So I got lucky my first two playthroughs with this mission. I was easily able to call in yotes from the observation tower near the lake both times. Looks like my luck ran dry this time. No yotes drinking at the lake or using the area at night. Any tips on checking this one off with no yotes using the lake?

gleaming lintel
#

i have found in my own experience with the mission i had a small pack that seemed to just spawn in from nowhere on the southwest side of the lake just up from the shore behind the trees

#

the tracks would always be there just appearing from nowhere each time i went back

#

i called one from the other side of the lake but after that they wouldnt come so i just kept following the tracks until i saw them and made sure they were still in the required area and took pot shots lol

#

i had to go back a few times

#

i think they must spawn in specfically for the mission, i dont have any normal need zones there, and these yotes dont act normally they just move off, run if you get to close etc, they never drink or rest etc

sour basin
#

i jumped a couple on the way into the lake on my ATV. never saw them again

#

also - what are coyote drink times at Layton? I've found sources saying 23:00 - 00:30, and others saying 00:30 - 03:00. Anybody know for sure which is correct, or if they have multiple drink times? Thanks

How hard is it to hunt at medved at night without nvgs?

Anybody have the old animal class charts from before the rework? Trying to explain it to a friend but Google is letting me down on visual aids.

empty rampart
#

Should i buy the Wild Goose Chase dlc or weapon pack 1?

#

I have only 3.99€ but dont know wich is better

#

I have evry other dlc

sour basin
#

Weapon pack 1 unless you spend alot of time on Hirsch. The .22 rifle is really nice for small game and ducks

#

Or just save up for the new map pack

empty rampart
#

A Map costs 8€

grand glacier
#

When you dont get all the harvest conditions does the trophy score change at all

#

Like i know you get silver/bronze no matter what but does it show that on the trophy score?

analog grail
#

The score doesnt change but the medals do

grand glacier
#

Oh thanks i found a like 377-. 440 reindeer or somthing i cant remember and i shot when it was to close and the zeroing was wrong so i hit spine

#

And i was so salty im going for a diamond reindeer and all i have found are some lvl 4s

#

But they have terrible trophy score

#

Idk what to do tbh the grass is so high im just not used to medved yk

sour basin
#

Anybody else just have a bunch of their whitetails go missing after the steam update? I suddenly have like 4 out of the last 5 zones I've checked completely empty of deer

They all migrated to Mexico for the new map

# fierce wave Oh god

Yeah. Was just starting to hit my stride on **the grind TM **. And then the deer vanished. Sure hope it's just a bad day or something

Isn't there a thing where animals don't render around a tent until you walk away then return

Where’s the best spots for gemsbok?

#

Which dlc is the 300 in

last hemlock
#

I believe....

blazing zinc
#

Yukon

last hemlock
#

Yeah yukon

blazing zinc
cunning plover
#

So if I purchase Yukon is it free

tranquil tundra
#

Nope

#

it's one of the more expensive weapons in the game

#

and you have to unlock it

hidden basin
#

Costs 75k in-game cash

tranquil tundra
#

very worth it though

hidden basin
#

It’s the second most expensive item in the game, only beaten out by the 470

cunning plover
#

That sucks

hidden basin
#

The 470 is kinda junk. The 300 tho is INCREDIBLY useful

tranquil tundra
#

It annihilates bears and can drop bison in under 10 seconds if you hit a vital with the softpoint

cunning plover
#

Ye

#

And what u think of the 30 06

last hemlock
#

Wait is the range master a brake action

hidden basin
#

Break-action

last hemlock
hidden basin
cunning plover
#

Ye I dropped a Buffalo 150 meters away haert shot it dropped on the spot

last hemlock
#

With a 30 06?

cunning plover
#

Ye

#

Soft point

last hemlock
#

Sorry but I think that's kinda bs

#

But idk

hidden basin
#

.30-06 is not meant to be used on buffalo/bison

last hemlock
#

Possible

cunning plover
#

Well I didn't. Know at the time

#

U see I'm still kinda new

#

Like I recently. Shot my first skin varition

#

@last hemlock is there away I can look on cotw to prove it to u

hidden basin
#

Prove wut?

cunning plover
#

That I killed a Buffalo with a 30 06

#

Look the game also works on shot placement

tranquil tundra
#

Can confirm

#

I accidentally used the Eckers on a bison once

cunning plover
#

Did it die

tranquil tundra
#

yep

#

hit a vital

cunning plover
#

Exactly

tranquil tundra
#

went down surprisingly fast too

cunning plover
#

So the game works on shot placement

last hemlock
#

Well I know

cunning plover
#

I mean I saw someone kill a kudu with a 223

last hemlock
#

But I've never has such luck with a 2 ten gauge slugs to the lungs

#

They run forever if I ehit them twice with it

cunning plover
#

Well use the ekers

last hemlock
#

I have the 300 now

cunning plover
#

Ye

tranquil tundra
#

.300 is only good for bears and anything bigger

#

Eckers destroys anything class-4

cunning plover
#

How rare is a dark skin variation on a gems bok

hidden basin
cunning plover
#

I hunt gems bok with my 30 06

tranquil tundra
#

I use the .300 on them since they're class-8 and idk if they're like moose

#

Moose, you need the .300

hidden basin
hidden basin
cunning plover
#

Look I have no problem with the 30 06 but a moose a is another mother fucker

hidden basin
#

You pretty much need the 300 or 338 to take down a moose

cunning plover
#

How can I unlock a 338

tranquil tundra
#

Rifle score

hidden basin
#

Rifle score

#

and no, I don’t have any soda on me before you do it

tranquil tundra
#

and if you have Parque, you can get a variant for free by doing a certain side mission

tranquil tundra
sour basin
cunning plover
#

@hidden basin wdym soda

hidden basin
#

Nothing

#

Anyways

#

.300 and .338 are the two large game weapons (class 7-9)

cunning plover
#

So I just need rifle score to get it

hidden basin
#

And a fat stack of cash

#

(In-game cash)

cunning plover
#

Ye that is no problem

last hemlock
#

Which maps do you get free things from

tranquil tundra
#

Parque has 2, Medved has 1, Te Awaroa has 1

#

all are mission-related

#

oh, Cuatro has 1 too

modern spoke
#

hey guys, a quick question

#

how do i tell which animal is considered rare

last hemlock
#

Ok cool rhanks

tranquil tundra
#

People unfortunately have wildly different opinions on what is considered rare

#

but generally anything albino fits the bill

modern spoke
#

ah so theres like no official thing or whatever

hidden basin
#

most melanistics are rare as well

#

many piebalds are also rare (though some arent, like axis deer)

last dirge
#

So my friend followed a tutorial on how to revert his mission progress now his game is broken it's like he started all over completely no lodges discovered no towers no guns no money

#

Nothing

#

Please help

last hemlock
#

Oh shit

modern spoke
last hemlock
#

Well he probably clicked restart game stats so

last dirge
#

No it was something to do with the missions file inside your EW/COTW folder in documents on your PC

hidden basin
cunning plover
#

@hidden basin I shot a melanisitc rabbit is that rare

last hemlock
#

Yes

last dirge
#

He didn't completely backed them up he only backed up the file the tutorial told him to mess with

#

He put it back in but it's still broken

hidden basin
#

that is problematic

tranquil tundra
#

Yeah you need all of the files for it to work properly

last dirge
#

He did have them all

tranquil tundra
#

something's broken then

hidden basin
#

tip: if you're gonna mess with your save files, make sure you back up the ENTIRE save folder in case something goes wrong

last dirge
#

Sigh great help your telling me things that he should of done before doing it

tranquil tundra
#

Okay

#

There's literally nothing anyone here can do

#

His file is gone from the sound of it.

cunning plover
#

So how much rifle score I need for 338

hidden basin
last hemlock
#

He should have been smarter if your gonna be rude about something he did

last dirge
cunning plover
#

Ok

hidden basin
last dirge
#

Oof

#

Welp he doesn't even wanna play the game anymore because of it lmao

last hemlock
#

Why was he trying to back it up?

last hemlock
hidden basin
#

also cuz of the recent save file corruption issues, ive been backing up my save folder every time i close the game so the most i lose is one play session if anything does go wrong

last hemlock
#

CORUPTION ISSUES

#

What

last dirge
#

He wanted to restart mission progress so we could do the missions at the same time

#

Idk why

#

But besides the point

hidden basin
#

i dont think it'll happen to me, but im making the backups to guard against it just in case

last dirge
#

Moving one file then putting it back in shouldn't corrupt your whole save game

cunning plover
#

Once I clicked on new game and thought I lost my guns

last hemlock
#

Oh ok

last dirge
#

Does clicking on new game erase your progress?

#

If not then we are absolutely dumb

tranquil tundra
#

Mission progress, levels, and weapon scores are wiped

hidden basin
#

Trophy lodges are kept though

hidden basin
last hemlock
#

Can you still open your previous file

hidden basin
#

Not without going into the save folder and replacing the files

last hemlock
#

Ok

hidden basin
tranquil tundra
#

One exception to that would be if your file corrupts badly enough to keep you from even getting to the menu

#

I had to manually delete everything and I lost my lodges/tax's

hidden basin
#

Yeh true

#

@tranquil tundra you backing up those files now?

tranquil tundra
#

Yeah

hidden basin
#

Good. I’d much rather lose one session than all my playtime

tranquil tundra
#

so does anyone know how TF I'm supposed to send a video on a bug to support?

#

Even when compressed it's too big to attach to an email

#

the bug in question is none of the intro lines for animals have been playing since the dog dlc (such as there being a line on whitetail being bigger than blacktail but more skittish)

crystal rampart
#

I totally forgot about those and I haven't gotten them for what feels like longer than that

toxic bane
#

I played after the hotfix for dog dlc and can confirm I have never heard those

#

I didn't know that was a thing until lyra pointed it out

tranquil tundra
#

yeah they haven't played at all since I had to nuke my file

fierce wave
#

What are they?

tranquil tundra
#

they're supposed to be bits of in-game info you get from the reserve warden on what to expect from an animal when you first examine a track

#

but they haven't been playing at all

fierce wave
#

Ohhhhhh

tranquil tundra
#

like on Parque for example, she'll say something about axis deer being called chital in India

fierce wave
#

Ok yeah I remember them

last dirge
#

What does he do?

tranquil tundra

Any tips on improving stability on the game by ALOT? It crashed 10 times a day.

Is it random crashing or crashing in one specified part?

fierce wave
# errant comet I did try, I get knocked out

I know since it's crashed and everything you can't get it but next time it does it try to go behind it and stand behind it and it might float towards you after a little while they actually start chasing you around the lake trying to float towards you to clame them that might get it to float towards you

brittle summit
# brittle summit both.

One where if i jump out of the waterfowl blind without exiting the normal way, it crashed.

fierce wave
# brittle summit both.

Have you tried to verifying game files through steam or uninstalling it and reinstalling it (if your on PC)

brittle summit
errant comet
fierce wave
#

Since it's crashing randomly that's a good chance there's nothing wrong with your save file so that's good

A .22LR bullet that lands near an animal (not ON them) will spook them enough to make them go alert (they will stop and check their surroundings), but not enough to make them flee

#

It’s a common trick that people use to stop a trotting animal to give them a window to make a good shot

am only level 19 so i guess i havent unlocked for that one or i cant afford that one atm or so

tranquil tundra

Yeah you get that one at lvl 27

toxic bane

that's amazing actually

tranquil tundra
#

Yeah it's a fun skill

#

the deer grunt caller will work on jackrabbits too

#

on Layton at least

hidden basin
#

The “who’s deer” skill gives a random chance of a caller attracting an animal that it normally doesn’t attract

tranquil tundra
#

Red deer caller - euro bison
Deer grunt caller - jackrabbits, elk
Moose caller - blacktail, reindeer
Elk caller - whitetail, musk deer

#

just to list a few

toxic bane
#

specifically euro bison only?

#

what about plains bison or buffs

tranquil tundra
#

Haven't tried it

#

just finished Parque again though so once I get some cash + tents/tripods I'll be off to Yukon, so I can try it then

toxic bane

hecc

#

I went to this steam guide that I had seen before about the hidden caller animals

#

and i saw you on the comments Lyra~

#

it does seem to be just euro bison

tranquil tundra

Speaking of guides, anyone else notice that the one guide that had all the fur types + max score + need zone times got deleted?

it should make gold, did you mess up the shot or use wrong caliber?

messed up the shot i had to shoot it 3 times, first one was a flesh shot, im still learning xd

oof

#

only shoot twice

bright sentinel

IK IK lol i was just so excited haha

tranquil tundra

yeah any more shots than 2 fails the harvest check

if you have the DLC that gives you the Hudzik muzzleloader, use that thing to teach yourself to not shoot too many times

one bullet + slow reload time

guys

#

how do I shoot an animal from 300m?

#

do I need to set my weapon's long range zero perk to 300m?

#

all bullets drop in front of the animal

shrewd hare
#

Go 300m from animal and shoot them? If you're without zeroing, go try in the Hirsch range what is the drop in your weapon

#

Default zero is 150m for most rifles so you need to aim higher to hit them.

regal moat
#

it's a sidequest in Cuatro Calinas, I have been trying for months to geet it

shrewd hare
#

Spend some time in Hirsch range to get the drop right

regal moat
#

aim higher, you mean fire ABOVE the animal?

shrewd hare
#

Yes. But how high depends on the distance. And that you can easily figure out at the Hirsch range. You have long range options there to test it out.

regal moat
#

ok

#

can yoou have detailed stats with the Rangefinder as with the default binos?

#

mine only shows distance, not animal level etc.

shrewd hare
#

I've never actually used the rangefinder in the game. I've just skipped it and saved to the rangefinder binos right away 😄

regal moat

oooh

ok

sour basin

#

I'd also like to know this

#

I always thought they went from drink zone to drink zone given the duration of their drink time

#

moving in a set pattern

#

or do animals move at random and stop at a rest/drink/feed zone when the time is right?

hidden basin
#

They are always either at a zone or migrating to their next zone

regal moat
#

I mean, I assume all animals are confined to certain areas (unless they go off-reserve)

hidden basin
#

Unless a predator scared them off ofc

I rarely encounter wolves so id say you are pretty safe

tranquil tundra
#

both types of buffalo were surprisingly more scared of the ATV than they hated me so that honestly has me feeling a bit more confident

brittle summit
#

What about bison

tranquil tundra
#

Bison only aggro when shot, or if they realize you're there within a certain distance

#

something I actually like doing if I botch a shot on one and it runs is briefly turning the ATV on

#

because that makes them aggro

hidden basin
#

Wolves aggro sometimes randomly or if you shoot the alpha male of the pack

brittle summit
#

free aggro?

tranquil tundra
#

and the whole "alpha pair" term is actually outdated

brittle summit

Since i dont have yukon fully explored, imma find a cliff and launch myself with the atv

on vurhunga i launched myself 2km ish

No they will

If you medkit before your health reaches zero, you’re totally fine

Can female Chamois be diamond?

tranquil tundra
#

afaik the only female animals that can make diamond are gemsbok

shrewd hare

And all rabbits and hares

tranquil tundra

O

didn't know that

shrewd hare
#

For them females are bigger and make diamonds. Don't think males even can make it

tranquil tundra
#

That does not match up with what I've seen in-game tbh, particularly with European rabbits

shrewd turret
#

Female chamois can be gold though

tranquil tundra
#

with rabbits I'm lucky if I see a female that has a solid 1 for a score estimate

shrewd turret
#

So why not diamond?

shrewd hare
#

Guess their horns don't grow big enough

shrewd turret
#

That sucks. I just got a level 4 melanistic female that’s like less than 2 points from diamond. Wish they could push up.

Ive had terrible luck in that canyon with red deer and boar. It took me like 2 weeks straight just to complete that one boar challenge that's there. Had to catch them traveling between zones. I've never found the red deer drinking in that canyon lake, onle roe deer lol.

There's a fox and roe deer that rest side by side near there and im always afraid ill accidentally shoot one of them. So that whole areas off limits for fox and roe deer for me xD.

Mosin has bigtime penetration problems from what I recall. Like just barely breaking the skin on roe deer from 150 yards out I've heard

Mosin is broken atm, game says deadly penetration yet yeah I was having issues beyond effective range. I wouldnt say it couldnt break skin, but you needed broadside to reach anything. The air rifle is really fun, does anyone know if its sound spook range is 200 meters or 150 meters?

358 is max score for gemsbok innit?

Yes

toxic bane

but this gal is not max weight

hidden basin

Females have a higher max score and a lower max weight than males

toxic bane
#

oh

hidden basin

210kg is max for females

#

240kg is max for males

toxic bane
#

blinks

#

wao

#

and I mean

#

I stalked a drinking spot, there were lots of gemsbok of all diff levels and estimates

#

on a mp server

hidden basin
#

Males also have a max trophy rating of 342, which essentially means they have to be like 2kg under max weight to make diamond

toxic bane
#

so you're telling me this girl is legit

#

and a max score as well

hidden basin
#

Yep

#

Yep

toxic bane
#

holy shit

#

this is the first level 5 gemsbok I've seen

hidden basin
#

I have a max weight max score male (240kg, 342 trophy rating)

toxic bane
#

what are the odds

hidden basin
#

Male level 5 gemsbok are infamous trolls

#

Female level 5’s, however, are guaranteed to be at or just below max weight

#

Iirc females make diamond at around 197kg or so (gemsbok are not truracs so their trophy score is much more closely linked to weight)

#

Level 4 females make diamond more often than you’d initially think

toxic bane
#

I've seen a lot of lv4 females with estimates going well into diamond

#

but they always seem to score at the bottom of the estimate

#

I guess I don't need to worry about that anymore~

#

damn dude I'm shaking

I was so happy, then so worried, and now really relieved

Whats a good all around gun /rifle to use ? Mainly for deer-elk

hidden basin
vast gale
#

Yes

hidden basin
#

There’s four I’d recommend for that:
-M1
-7mm
-.303
-Eckers .30-06

Pick your favorite

#

Be warned though that all will struggle against moose and sometimes elk

vast gale
#

The m1 can be bought in the shooting barrels pack correct?

hidden basin
#

Smoking barrels pack

#

Eckers comes in weapon pack 3.
.303 comes with te awaroa.
7mm is a base game weapon and is also class 4-9

vast gale
#

Ok thank you alot !!

hidden basin
#

The best weapon for bears, moose, and elk is the .300 canning magnum, which is unlocked when you buy the Yukon valley DLC map

#

The runner-up for that is the Rangemaster 338, which, like the 7mm, is a base game weapon

vast gale
#

Yeah ive used the 338 for moose but still wanna get a all around gun for sure tho thx!!

hidden basin
#

Now, the 7mm is more of a jack of all trades weapon. It’s one of two rifles that is class 4-9 (the other being the .45-70)

vast gale
#

Do u think the m1 will good for the new map ?

hidden basin
#

If anything it might be TOO powerful for all but the whitetail and mule deer

#

The new map looks like it’s gonna focus a lot on class 1-3 animals

vast gale
#

Ya what class is the sheep ?

hidden basin
#

4

#

So m1 will work on bighorns, whitetail, and mule deer on the new map

#

It’ll be overpowered for anything else from what I can tell

vast gale
#

Thanks what gun do u use for mountain lions?

hidden basin
#

Mtn lions are class 5, so all of the class 4-8 and 4-9 rifles will work well on them

#

Most people use either M1 or .303

Just so you're aware, I recall someone previously getting warned for spacing out what they were saying like that

Hey guys, today my game suddenly started freezing and I can't seem to figure out why it's happening. I've tried updating my nvidia drivers, reinstalling the game, verifying the game files and resetting the game's settings & save files.
Interestingly enough the game always freezes at the exact same moment during the first loading screen of the game

#

Does this sound familiar to anyone? I've been playing the game for basically years without any issues

tranquil tundra
#

Same thing happened to me a while ago.

#

I tried resetting the game's settings and save files

#

Unfortunately no luck

tranquil tundra
#

Not even outright deleting the save file worked?

quick dust
#

I renamed the 'Avalanche Studios' folder in documents to something else

#

That should have removed them, right?

tranquil tundra
#

so the freshly-generated one didn't work?

#

because if that's the case, you'll probably want to email support

quick dust
#

Unfortunately not, game still froze at exactly the same point

#

Good point, will do

#

Thanks!

animal awareness states are basically:

Calm - self-explanatory
Nervous - calls may or may not work. Animal will react faster to things. They'll be in this state for a while after being spooked, or if they smell you but not enough to spook.
Attentive - might actually be a bit more responsive to calls, but they're starting to figure out something's up.
Alert - they def know something is up. Either stop moving for a while if you're stalking them, or aim fast if the wind turned against you.
Alarmed - animal is about to flee.
Fleeing - self-explanatory.
Aggressive - you'd better hope it drops fast if you shot it, or get up the nearest hunting stand/treestand/tripod, because whatever it is is on their way to either bulldoze you or take a bite out of you.
Defensive - no idea what this one means, but it equates to "fleeing" in birds

By some miracle I managed to fix the issue I just asked about by disabling the Te Awaroa dlc. Apparently leaving the game with that reserve opened caused a crash when loading the main menu.
This seems like a pretty serious issue if more people are experiencing it. There's really no way to know the cause of this without debugging trial and error.
Should this be forwarded to the dev team in some way?

Ah, thanks. Will do

generally after an animal flees and turns nervous, they will usually grab the closest available need zone for their current schedule. Once they calm down they can decide to return to their original zone

in defensive

tranquil tundra
#

yeah birds use defensive for fleeing

brittle summit
#

but it make no sense

#

they be defensive over territory

#

not AAAAAAAAAH A HUNTER

#

Perhaps “defensive” refers to the instinct to defend themselves

#

Whereas “aggressive” means they want you dead

toxic bane
#

but they just flee

hidden basin
#

Which kinda equates to defending themselves and maybe the flock

Anybody know the actual radius for need zones? Is it 150m?

toxic bane
#

my experience has been about 100m

how rare this

#

i taxidermized this

So I checked the bullet drop on the .44 Panther using the 75m zero. Here's what I came up with

50m - flat
100m - 6"
150m - 6"
200m - approx 30-36"

I think the shooting range might have glitched out. If someone gets a chance to check it would be nice to compare notes
