Try the heart
What weapon you using?
.270 is far from an ideal weapon for moose btw. 7mm is the minimum I’d use personally
not ideal but still within the class at least, im still saving up for money
you can heart shot it, head on, from below - with soft point. but you have to be right on it.
below like, prone on ice and it's walking towards you
hello! i'm really new to this game (just bought it) and i cant seem to find any animals anywhere. I've only ever killed one deer, and it spawned right in front of me when the game began. what can i do?
What time is it on the map?
12:57
Also are u on layton or hirchfelden?
hirchfelden
Swap over to Layton
Layton is the easier map
Then go to the lake that gonna be about a km in front of u when u spawn
Are there a lot of animals there?
also, any tracking tips? I've spent a while tracking animals and just not found anything
What platform do u play on?
PC
U may be able to find someone on pc to give u all the outpost
Outposts act as fast travel locations so u can navigate the map faster
Hi, Just wondering, I'm New Here, What is the best Map?
Mexico it comes out june 29th for pc and it comes out sometime in July on consoles for 7.99$
Thx
how is a map that hasnt come out yet the best map
also does anyone know minimum score for meese
What
0 if you count the cows
Oh I thought he said what the next map is my b 😂
for males lmao
No fckn clue
Silver ridge peaks sorry
i have a 35.5 bull on my wall of shame, kinda wanted to know if i even could get something smaller
that and awaroa
Depends on what species u want to hunt
same can be said about silver
What the best map is depends a lot on who you ask and what species they primarily hunt
True
For instance, I live and breathe Medved
Nah
cuatro kinda sick ngl
Look who you’re talking to, bud
I sold my soul to whitetail u sold urs to lynx I dont judge
Whitetail is less weird than lynx
Perhaps
great ones are overrated anyways. Rare lynx is where it’s at
Super rare lynx are where its at
Don’t tempt me
lmao sold mine to fallow deer
I’ve killed more lynx during my rare grind than vivid has whitetail during his GO grind😛
I'm about 1300 total
Hey, so am I!
Only difference is I barely play anymore
Anyways #🦌︴general
How do you get the range shight for bow
High tech hunting pack DLC
everyone seems to recommend solokhin but for some reason it does not even have polymer tip ammo, any good reason to use it ?
Thx
Yes. Has quite a bit of knockdown power against class 3 animals like lynx and roe deer
is it good sub for .270 tho ? I feel like it's only better if you can get better positioning
Apples and oranges. .270 does not cover class 3’s, while the solokhin does
I'm new to this game and I really enjoy it. I want to know what maps are the best and what weapons are the best (For like small/medium/big animals). Can anyone help me with that?
Have you gotten all the dlcs?
Not all of them
But most
And they’re all like 60% off until tomorrow
So if I don’t have it I’ll just get it
Ive come to the end of some bear tracks and like the "indicators" say just now but alast no bear. Is this supposed to happen?
If you shoot an animal and it runs out of render or you move out of its render then it turns invisible
Whats the render distance?
if i set up a tent near a need zone and just like wait it out will that work?
?
fast travel to the zone early so you dont spook animals there
tents spook in 150m radius when fast travelling
and 250m when placing
anyone knows if the whitlock 86 lever action is worth an upgrade from the .243
It's powerful, but at the cost of range.
- power, - range
You decide if that’s a worthy trade-off
geese spots?
Oh I can answer that
they just look different~
ah
so there's a lot of potential spots for goose huntin
I don't know how you can only fit one
once you finish setting up the weight of the decoys and the tents, etc will go away
I really like the 20ga semi auto
.22LR is nice for faraway targets
time to test out my atv
you know what
am I allowed to post videos from CC members?
someone yell at me if this is not allowed, but here
this is from Flinter
has a good bit of info on setting up goose hunting spots
turns out, pistols are quite large
How can I actually find animals on xbox
any tips on best place to grab black bear pics for a mission in Balmont?
been camping a need zone for them, prone not moving wind is facing me not direction of zone, but they never seem to come 😛
How to you get early access
EW can give you early access to upcoming content if you are a trusted content creator (my guess)
If your in single player then you can change the time and the animals will automatically go to their zones
I would use that
If the black bear isn’t there at all then maybe look for another zone
how does the .338 perform compared to the .300? It looks like the ammo has better stats
It has a bit better stats, but in practice the .300 is capable to do anything the .338 can, but it has 5 rounds in the mag which can be a huge advantage.
ooh now I see the one-shot limt
.338 is a buffed 7mm?
one that's restricted to 7-9, basically
I can DM you a chart
accept friend request~
also are rare geese rare?
I've yet to see a melanistic goose
...and tbh I rarely see a variant that isn't brown hybrid
i think mela are not modeled to be mela
honestly not sure if a melanistic diamond would be considered a SR though
then again idk what mela goose looks like
irl tho
good for my eyes right
it's accurate, apparently
Same but I've got 2 melanistic 2 grays and like 6 bhy
And it is one male and one female the female was my first rare goose
Is a Dilute mule deer considered a rare I originally thought so but I just got my 5th one so I’m starting to think it’s not that rare
uncommon

Thanks
Yeah it's uncommon and makes you excited because you think it's albino
I was getting really excited because it was a big gold also but then noticed it was diluted instead
are there albino varients of all animals
most animals
List of animals without albino variants:
- Black Bear
- Mallard
- Canada Goose
- Blackbuck
- Cinnamon Teal
- Gemsbok
- Scrub Hare
aww no moose
moose do have albino
yes
thank you
yisyis
are you more likely to find better animals further away from reserve spawn?
i cant find nothing but level 2 minor moose
is black gold rare on piggies ( te awaora)
No. It’s rare on boars, not on feral pigs
You see black gold on give or take a third or a fourth of male feral piggies
@brittle summit
so do animals just avoid pink zones
Hunting pressure makes animals less likely to spawn/respawn there. Build up enough pressure and you’ll delete need zones and make existing animals avoid that area
ah okay
No. But you have more chances to encounter big animals
so basically, Duck hunting, You find a place with ducks, you kill the ducks and set up, No ducks turn up because of the pressure so you have to relocate
You can delete pressure
Yeah, pressure goes away as it gets added elsewhere
So you can simply have multiple ducc setups and rotate between them
@small ore
In fact that’s good practice for any animal
question regarding the mission "A Crowning Achievement"
considering that there's no designated mission area
do I have to take a picture of an ibex on that hill, or can it be anywhere?
I took mine on a lake adjacent to that hill
Beware tho
You need to get REALLY close to the ibex for the pic to count
@tranquil tundra
Yeah I know
I got by this one before I reset
I'm set up right on top of a rest zone rn
is there a away to quick hide and bring back hud ? like a button]
Just got bloodhound today, what are the recommended skills to go with for it?
I would recommend experimenting with its skills, if you don’t like the outcome then you can buy another dog
You can also have a dog for hunting and another for other purposes
@tender ingot
The map?
No like the health and wind etc in corner
yeah i know was looking for faster way but thank you :)@brittle summit
yea there is no faster way
shame
.303 any good?
very good
My brother told me to come here for hopefully some help with a COTW issue.
I have tried absolutely everything i know to try. I just bought and downloaded on steam. I launch the game, i get the few loading screens fine, and all of my audio is fine. as soon as i get to the main menu or even into a map, i lose ALL system audio. Game audio dies. Discord audio dies. Youtube/twitch audio dies. i legit cant hear ANYthing. every 30 seconds or so i will get a millisecond of sound but thats literally it.
I have a go xlr mini. reset / reinstalled all drivers and did tons of online research and came up with NOTHING>...... any help is greatly appreciated..
Def a computer problem
wouldn't be affecting other programs if it was a game issue
No other game or program has the same eaffect. as soon as i close the game, i regain all audio
Something might be incompatible then
I've had games mess us entire system audio. I was using a usb to 1/4 mono at the time. sometimes things get weird. you could try disconnecting all but a basic audio output (like 1/8 headphones) and see if that works. then build your way back up from there if it does.
How rare are max weight diamonds?
pretty rare
Okay question is an animal's max weight the max estimate? (Meant to ask this here)
Varies by gender, but the absolute max for the species is the top of the max estimate
Okay so on female European bison I found one with a high estimate 106~164 and it had a weight estimate up to 1366 lb and I was curious to know if that is Max female weight or does Max female weight fall around that area
It ended up weighing 1092lb
ok so every so often it wont let me switch barrels on the drilling
how do i remove hunting pressure bc it is annoying me
pressure only goes away if it gets added to other areas of the map
this is why zone rotation is important: to make sure you are not building up too much pressure in one area of the map
its better to kill a few animals at a bunch of zones than a bunch of animals at a few zones
Where is a great spot for Ronda ibex?
are any melanistic animals rare?
nearly ALL of them are
ah, taxidermized a melanistic plains bison just now lol
Daaaaamn
How do you guys know when to stop running after a wounded animal ? and begin sneaking again ? Feels like I do this way too long and I just spook them almost endlessly
generally speaking if the scat/poop track says "just now" you are close enough to spook them
id start walking/sneaking at "very fresh"
if they are wounded but wont die you can just wait for them to come back to their zone, they usually will eventually
if they are going to die eventually you might as well just run after them it wont make much difference at that point
Yes if I hit a vital I just sprint after them no worries
but I had to chase after a wounded mythical red deer for 2 hours yesterday
if you mess up a shot on a diamond potential or rare you can quit to main menu and reload as long as the animal doesnt die it should reappear unharmed lol
and it seemed to never stop trotting away
yeah you probably hit him somewhere he wasnt going to die, usually in that case i just leave it and let it come back to its zone
as long as it was in a zone yeah it should do if it doesnt die
i wonder can animals kill you in the hunter classic?>
if theres lots of hunting pressure it might not right away, and if its right at the end of the zone time sometimes they dont come back
🤔
Yes. And you die fast if they get to you instead of losing some health like in cotw.
im sure bears and wolves attack you
could mooses attack you too?
im new i just want to know before i get my game fixed lol
This is a topic for #491900650519789578
And if it's free roaming I'm assuming it won't either ? Or I need to guess which zones it would have gone to next
oh
yeah you will have to guess its zone if it was just travelling
Is there currently a bug with footstep audio? I'm always one bar louder than my friend when we're next to each other doing the same movements. No backpacks, I have the first level of the quiter footstep perk and he doesn't
Could be, but we've tested it on the same ground and moving the same speed (tested every different speed possible) and it still seems to be different
Will do, thanks
guys im already doing task in taiga for catching wounded deer like 30 minutes, am i doing something wrong? ping me when answer please
Wdym
This is a known issue, sadly
it's you. Looking at your ticket rn
I want to go hunting for Canadian goose, you guys have any recommendations where to set up decoys?
Fields
Which field ?
Thanks mate :D
What are the best shotguns for Non-slug hunting?
Are DLCs included?
Other than weapon pack 1
I don't think weapon pack one has shotguns
It doesn’t
Well in your case, since you don't have any shotgun dlcs
I have everything other than 1
i like the 1891 for everything tbh
I use the Miler 1891
Cause there is little recoil, quick reload, and has coverage of all nine classes. Hope that helps!
^^
Great, that’s the one I am using
just carry all the ammo types
Good pick then, happy hunting!
Thx for the help
no problem
guys is it normal that lights on ATV stop working after driving for few seconds?
best place to find blue wilderbeast herds?
Oh I've noticed that "one bar louder" issue on Cuatro
complete with the sound of moving through foliage, even when I'm on open ground
or at least I'm pretty sure it's open ground. Cuatro's a little tricky there
It's an acknowledged bug, fix is coming with México
no workaround I suppose? quite impossible to ride during night time eh especially when it's daytime irl
South east part of the map
Also fever tree forest
are brown blackbucks rare?
Happens to me with about every other pack of wolves.
I think I might bug-report that tbh
Happens to almost every mtn lion 🤣
am I the only one that actually files bug reports?
same thing happened to me with a lion last night
Hi i just bought duck dlc and i want to hunt ducks i have 2 maps layton lake disrtict and hirschfelden what map is better for duck hunting ?
layton is the only one of those two maps to have dux
only three maps have dux btw: layton, parque fernando, and yukon
thank you
I play classic and i see COTW is on sale would i be able to run it?
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2500U
GPU: AMD Radeon Vega 8 Graphics
RAM: 8 Gigabytes.
Should be able to run on low-medium graphics
on 1366x720 resolution?
shadows make a big difference, and so does global illumination
Yeah this game's very graphic-intensive
I have a GTX 1660 Ti and can do Ultra, though there's still some slight lag on Vurhonga and Cuatro
Also Ambient Occlusion is a huge reaource draw. Cant remember if that is an option in this game.
i mean my ram is 8 gigs, but 7.66 usable
where should i be aiming to get a bison down in 2 shots or less
with what weapon?
7mm
behind the shoulder should get a lung
hitting any vital guarantees the animal will die
how far behind coz they have the plates in the way which are non vital
the ideal is just behind the crease that the foreleg has with the torso
so quite low on the torso?
ok ok that helps thank you
heart will be an instant or near-instant drop, but you'd need a frontal shot to have the best chance at hitting it
liver counts as vital, so you're good to aim a little farther back
Is the patch coming out the same time for all platforms or does console have to wait for that also?
if you read #📢︴game-news you wont have to ask
So I have to deal with the bugs and stuff for another undetermined time frame. That kinda stinks. Might have to upgrade to pc early lol
I already own it on steam lol. But don’t a a powerful enough pc yet. Been using a streaming service
ah
Whats diamond bison?
how long does dead animal and blood stay on the ground?
24 in-game hours afaik
which bison?
Euro is 270.3
plains is 221.1
are the euros in both of the European reserves or?
only hirschfelden
do you know what part of the map?
left third or so
do dead animals disappear after fast-travel?
because i saw it drop, then fast traveled about 300-400m to get my atv
and now its gone??? what??
If animals go out of render they disappear
@stuck cape
It will be fixed in the rancho del arroyo update
bruh, it could have been diamond
it wasnt
what animal was it? and what level was it?
Anyone got any good European Hare spots to share? Specifically nighttime zones?
can anyone tell me a good spot in balmont to find blacktail deer?
balmont lake during blacktail drink time (5:00-9:00)
Thank you
Okay I have heard about if you join a hack server they could mess up your files and stuff can someone join your map/sever and mess it up or is it safe to host public servers without somebody catastrophically tearing everything up to my files and stuff?
I cant seem to change the color of the active tracker in Mevdev, anyone know fix to this ?
I use pink
that's pink xD
Pink is the best for medved, the orange is second best but can blend into the pine needles. But yeah all tracks suck on medved
just out of curiosity...if a friend invites me onto their map, i start hunting on that map, they go offline and i continue hunting, will all the need zones and hunting pressure be updated when they come back online?
Guys i need help
I watched a perks video and did everything the same but i have 4 points less then him and i am max level i did everything right 💯% pls tell me what's going on
What level was the guy you watched?
Also max level
60?
It was a video from Risky i don't think that he is hacking
Hmmmm
Yes
How many does he have?
I think 22
He has 27 ???
send me the vid link in dms pls
K
anyone else have issues with the med-ved taiga achievements? pathology 101 and tourist never popped up even though i completed all the others?
It's a thing that had happened over the years. Resetting skills / perks have given extra points or something along those lines. I've seen other creators and players who've played for long and have reset their skills often have extra points.
thats kinda unfair well only cost me about 70k $ but its okay 🙂 🥲
Well it's not really the players fault here if game give extra points.
max weight level 4 caribou
might not be tho
antlers were huge though
why cant i harvest in multiplayer
i keep spamming e but nothing happens
ok so turns out its because the host left
or something like that
Hello I would need help about the Canada goose I am on the German map and I do not see a single goose pass
It takes some time, just place 20 decoys in a field and call for em when you hear em fly over
Oh also have a blind up
ok ty but is there a specific place and how long can i wait?
Like south in hirschen on the fields?
ok ty
Can someone tell me if Parque Fernando has collectables? I can't find any information anywhere regarding it
Oh right thank you
When doc tells me he spotted tracks nearby, is there anything special about the animal or is it just to help me out when I load up?
It's to help u out
I once got mauled by a doe and doc was like, "hey, i spotted you getting mauled this morning, heres some tracks."
Ah okay, I thought it was something like that but I wasn't sure
anybody know where i can find back my screenshots from cotw? and where teh map is with pic i took in cotw?
Oh yeah I can guarantee you it was not a diamond
Huh? Like where is the screenshot folder at on your computer?
Of ur console?
I personally would hope they would know where their screenshots are on console
I hope so too but u never know
True
Does any one know any good axis deer spots on parqae Fernando
Hey i would need someone to explain me something
what do these redish circle mean is it like a marker that there are not gonna be animals for a while or what
its called hunting pressure
Reason: Duplicated text
why is the reason duplicated text?
DM
that just seems silly
ty
it is
many thanks i got it now
So on ps4 it auto reset me and I lost all my trophy’s is there anything I can do
Only thing you can do is report it I'm afraid
they've stated that they're still trying to figure out what makes that happen
what kind of drop off?
at what range is it no longer a straight shot? at what range does the bullet start to drop off?
the air rifle has the trajectory of a rainbow
but you can use scope dots to your advantage
hitting a red fox from 150 is gonna be a little bit of a challenge then
especially at night
now ive hit a lynx at 183m with it
150 is kinda beyond its effective range tho. 100m is its max zeroing
with the argus scope at max zoom, each dot is 25m
i legit can't find anything
Which map are you on?
beginner
Layton or Hirsch?
layton sorry lol im dum
alright
whitetail drink time is 12:00 to 15:00 I think
k whats better?
k thank you both
is the new patch going to fix the codex level recording issue?
the one where golds are recorded as diamonds? i dont remember seeing that in the patch notes
That's been fixed
was fixed last patch
now it's just a "if the animal leaves render before dropping it won't re-render"
but that one is at least avoidable
@last hemlock toggling the x-ray and normal view is right-clicking on the display.
I got it fixed
What’s a good time and place place to hunt Iberian wolves? I haven’t hunted them yet even though I’ve had the map since day 1
nighttime, around 1am. most lakes should have them
though beware of surprise attacks during daylight hours
Thanks. I’ve never even had an encounter with one yet
guys is there a quick way to find all those feeding/sleeping/drinking spots on map? especially coz they're kind switching I think
or should I just find some map with recommended spots that usually have specific animals around them?
find some maps that have them
best wepon loadout that can take out each lvl of animal in game?
.22LR rifle (for class 1)
.243 (for class 2-3)
M1 OR .303 (for class 4-6)
.300 OR .338 (for class 7-9)
anyone know any good spots for diamond hunting on hirschfelden?
There is no "good spot" for a diamond
whether or not something spawns as a diamond is entirely RNG
Hey everbody
My friend is having issues with the game. So basically, she can only play for like 5-10 mins and then an error report pops up and kicks her off. Any suggestions on how to fix this bug?
game error
hang on i'll post a sc
Reinstalled drivers, Verified cache on steam, still happens 😦
thats a crash report btw
Try moving the save file into a quarantine folder to see if it's corrupted
well spotted mate
Thanks will do!
so question has does anyone know if guests on yukon valley can hear wolves howl or is it still only the host that can hear them?
Hi Guys, I have a problem with COTW as soon as I have started the game and my game hangs in the first loading screen and the hunter support unfortunately does not help
You'll have to manually move or delete your save file
Yeah it sucks when things break that badly
unfortunately, it's a risk every game has
the save files are kept in the COTW file
still happening :<
😦
try a full reinstall
uninstall, manually delete everything that doesn't get removed, then reinstall
and if that doesn't help, it might be something with your computer
best places to find diamond euro hare?
No best place for a diamond. It all comes down to RNG.
Best thing you can do is find a group that mostly females and start farming them
what are the pre-requisites for hunting pressure to be reduced in an area? ive been chilling in other areas and going about my hunting business but the pressure remains
shoot things in other places
tis what i have been doing 😦
i must shoot more
brb lemme go wipe out the entire bear population
Okay man thanks for the help 🙂
What does it do, can you be more specific
where was that crossbow graphic that guides on the points on the scope?
i forgot to save it last time and want to do it now
Thank you!!
Very welcome
Do you have any backup files?
fixed it
I see nice work
Did you see what I said in general PC?
yep
Just killed a 8 mythical albino
It glitched in lodge and when I claimed it so I haven't got a good picture on the horns because it disappeared
(this fix is not retroactive)
Yeah hornless trophies are there to stay unfortunately
Oh so they are never getting their things?
Dang that sucks I was hoping to get a good picture with its horns to
How do you use dogs on console
I see people having tents over their maps a lot, but for me they get removed cause of the beaver each time I leave the session, is this normal?
Do you place them on multiplayer?
depends on where the tent is, I think
some spots are more likely to result in the game having an error in trying to load them in
Nope, singleplayer
I guess I'll just try more spots then, but so far I've never have a tent stand for long lol
kennel the dog and see what happens
it happens
@hidden basin How do I solve it?
re-launch the game
@hidden basin I just downloaded it and when I open it it just appears ..
Ok..
Are your drivers up to date?
Yes..
@last hemlock Windows doesn't though, I'll update it right after the game's file checks...
for which animal(s)?
That's I say the problem windows really makes stuff die
what DLCs do you have?
get that .30-06
shred medium sized deer with it
thats another pretty good pack
thats best for larger game
the M1 from smoking barrels is almost without argument the best medium-large deer rifle and the best grinding weapon in the game
yes
shreds the class 4 animals
rated for class 4-8
4-6 is where it shines brightest
keep the rangemaster for moose
m1 wont kill very quickly unless you nail a heart or necc shot
yeah, on moose
below bear size tho, not much will stand a chance against the m1
Polymer if you can afford it
How good are the follow up shots? Been using 1890 so far
Best gun is muzzleloader
Smoke anything
Easy double lung on bear from 200m
Hi, is there a mission I can do in multiplayer with my friends or is it free hunting? Greetings
missions are singleplayer only
the host of a multiplayer session can start challenges though
👍 thx
Follow up shots are 95% of the reason the M1 is the best gun in the game. The gun has virtually no recoil
Muzzleloader is good but it can only take one animal from a herd. Most of the game is grinding respawns so if you can only take down one animal at a time it doesn’t work for grinding. But yeah the power is insane
It should be rated 4-9 actually. They need to change that
actually i can take at least 4 mountain goats from the same heard most of the time
with the full reload speed perk and the full scope speed perk it isnt bad at all
Maybe if they flee then come back. It’s super inefficient compared to a gun with 5 in the mag
It really depends on if you have the perks, if you’re not at that point in the game where you have those perks it may be a little more difficult to reliably take out more than one animal at a time
Although I have had quite a bit of success with the muzzleloader, especially against bigger creatures like moose, bison, and Cape buffalo
i use it against pretty much anything
from lynx to mule deer
whatever's there i will shoot
except bison
and lvl 1s
I’m more of a trophy hunter so I try to use the right gun and ammo for the right creatures, also I’m not a fan of the type of scope on the muzzle loader especially if I’m going for something smaller and further away
you shouldn't really use it on far away animals
and it is right from 3-8
not 1, 2 or 9
Yeah that’s why it’s not always my go-to gun
but 3-8 is really fuckin good??
Since I usually end up scaring away most things close enough for the muzzleloader’s scope to be effective
literally just carry the two ammo types
just... crouch
Mmm no
then you arent really playing the game right
for the muzzleloader i mean
the tactic is fine for further guns
Fuck u right I should’ve read the tutorial on how to play the game right mb
Didn’t know having fun was not the main goal of a game
Lol
Muzzleloader just does not fit my typical play style which is what I’ve been saying lmao
it's not for me
To quote a smart ass... “then you aren’t really playing the game right”
\DUDE I SAID FOR THE MUZZLELOADER
are you-
are you just being an ass about it for the sake of it?
im gonna take the lack of response as a yes
and resign myself lol
👆🏽
Yes
no everyone plays the same
i literally specified for the muzzleloader
no
yes..?
the way u play muzzle is driving on a ATV jumping off then shooting
hahahahaha
i did that with the grleck for bison when i was like level 14
good fun
if you dont do it that way you arent really playing the game right
That’s all he knows how to do x-x gets me to open up my map to Yukon so he can wipe my entire bison population
i do that with the 1891
with 10 gauge slugs
copper ridge is bison heaven
or hell for them ig
is it called that?
no
copper bowl lake
M1 > Muzzle
¯_(ツ)_/¯
i dont feel that way
muzzle is great but m1 is better
nah
i think i have majority vote
so i win 😄
not enough pen for my liking
3>1
cant cut through a bison like butter
If you’re using muzzle for bison you’re not playing the game right
i know, its 4-8
If you want real hunting for bison go the to marsh flats between Trappers Peak and Woodsman’s Respite. Dozens of bison
i used it on one once just to see what it was like
shot it through the middle chest basically went out its asshole
and the m1 cant cut through anything like butter
maybe a rabbit
?
If you know how to shoot it does..
Ever hit a heart shot?
Then your prior comment doesn’t make sense?
which
...
in one side and out the other
it can hit heart shots but it doesnt perform like the muzzleloader
But like I said, I can drop three to four whitetail on the spot before you can take out your second minie ball never mind complete the reloading animation
Is this a bug or am I not getting something ?
I shot this moose with a .270 Polymer tip. It failed to hit any vital areas. 
Only if you’re playing the game the right way
do i need to go get screenshots?
Maybe
I'll kill two mountain goats
Both from 200m
One with the m1 and one with the .muzzle
Well see how the pen compares
Okay?
That sound fair?
Brain is vital and since they don’t have trophy then I guess you can’t mess up a trophy organ??
I'm also genuinely curious haha
You’re not getting it
What am I not getting lol?
Brain is a vital, but hitting the skull will damage the trophy organ if the animal has one (which this moose cow does not)
No i mean.. look at the first bullet, a polymer tip failed to hit vital organs lol.
You said the pen could also cut like butter
I need a 50 call.
Everyone knows the penetration on the muzzle is better. But the M1 drops class 4 animals on the spot, class 5’s run 15m with vitals, class 6 runs maybe 30m with vitals. And when you can accurately down 5x more animals with the M1 than the muzzle, it would make sense that the M1 would be the better choice in a game in which you need to kill more animals to get more trophy animals. That’s all I’m saying
Two things first off when I bought the gun pack 2 all I got was the drilling gun does it only come with that now and the other thing is I bought I while back the place with water Buffalo and the tripod pack but those have both disappeared
Pc or console?
Console
All weapon packs should have 3 weapons. Weapon pack 2 should have the solokhin rifle and the mangiafico pistol
Did you check to make sure parque Fernando is downloaded as well as the tree stand and tripods dlc?
I’d make sure they’re actually downloaded and if it shows they are you may have to redownload the game + dlcs if they aren’t working properly
Judging from the distance 41m. Aim abit higher? U shot it right in the anus
The moose probably puckered up and slowed the bullet down
Hahaha
Also one last provlem every time I place down a ground blind and I get in any animals that were there disappear and creates a new set of animals it’s happened like 3 times to me today
Need more info on that one
Wdym
Disappear and creates a new set of animals?
Like say there’s a couple flocks of ducks in a lake well when I get in a ground blind the all the ducks disappear like gone but then there will be new deer that were not there before
Placing a blind will spook anything within 150~m
The ducks were across the whole lake
I shot it right in the front center.. a little high of the heart.
Oh yeah it just went between the lungs and didn’t hit any vitals. It happens to me with whitetail sometimes
Or elk
Damn m1 missing them shots?
Muzzleloader does not go where you aim so I cant talk haha
Like you aim for the head and it hits the leg with the muzzleloader
are u shooting from a tripod or elavated position? coz 41m is damn close, what a pity.
You’d need to investigate a little more. Like spot the ducks then mark how far away they are when they’re spooking or disappearing. If it’s over 200 or so meters then it may be something funky
Right ? I would've thought from that angle the polymer bullet must've hit something, lucky i always take 2 shots to be certain... 😄
Prone possition.
Just go for the spine. Also U missed the brain.
Go for the spine...? That’s by far the hardest shot in the game
Not a vital
Neck, however, is
He's 41m away
Spinal cord is still very hard to hit no matter how far away you are
ok boss
Especially with how bugged the spinal cord shots are
easier said then done indeed. But possible with some experience.
It's a female moose and don't worth much anyway. Can always try again
Polymer tip, go straight for headshots. Lets see how they survive that. 
Yeah but my polymer tip couldn't even penetrate to the lungs 😆
I'm just joking now, but seriously RNG is hell sometimes.
It definitely penetrated to the lungs just went in between them
So... it went between the heart,2 lungs, liver & stomach ? 
Damn smart bullet
Must be a vegetarian bullet 😄
Above the heart, between the lungs, stopped before the liver or stomach.. lol
Also it was the .270 so it doesn’t even surprise me
Shoot middle of the body between the armpits
Heart shot, if you miss should be lung
His broadside was facing me last night. 1st shot hit the liver. Took 4 shots in total.
Isn't the .270 fit for large animals ?
I mean, I want the .300, That's what i bought Yukon Valley for but eh.. riffle score 😆
.270 is a medium game rifle
Broadside sitting probably just below the shoulder. The lungs are higher up than you think when they’re in that position
Got it
.270 on a moose isn’t much fun. .300 much more fun
Next time you shoot one just check out where their vitals are when you’re harvesting them
In that position of course
yeah, I was aiming just below his armpit and it hit the liver instead
abt 180++ range
Hmm. Maybe some bullet drop cause that seems like it should’ve been lung
Oh there's a 50 call in the game lol
The muzzleloader?
Yes lol
Yeah it’s only ethical for classes 3-7 or 4-8 depending on ammo but the penetration is wild
That same shot on the moose with the muzzleloader 4-8 ammo would’ve went out the back and probably through the moose behind her
Penetration is roughly on par with others, but it’s expansion is what gives it that knockdown power
I don’t know of another rifle that goes through both lungs and out the other side on a moose
what's max level of bloodhound tracker ?
can someone help me? i need a diamond animal for one of the cuatro missions and i just cant find one
any tips/ideas?
hares, maybe?
or have you already done the sombra mission?
i think that's a guaranteed diamond
does it count for the other missions too?
i thought only the active mission gets tracked
I dont think mission animals count
does it count if i go on a public server?
because i have been told that you can find diamond more easily there
they do count vivid
just not towards codex
i think they work for the quest
cause it registers as a diamond animal when you harvest it
and it asks you to harvest one
He could try it but I'm 99 percent sure it doesnt
U cant do quest in multi
damn
thats how cash said he got it
let me find it
there
Oh well my bad then
if i shot the hare, do i need to activate the other mission again? because i always thougt that it only tracks for the active mission
nah
sombra's not a hare
its a wolf
and you dont need it active
\quest objectives can be completed without them active
yes
shit
theres 3 quest wolves
The black one
i think i already did that
Then hunt south easterns
not sure
it may have be ogro
There bugged right now and lv 4s make diamond super easy
easily confused
Ogro is the one that is lv 6
Oh nvm
sombra
I interpreted it wrong
haha its fine vivid
ok the wiki doesnt show me the missions for some reason
i am at badens mission where i need to shoot somehting at night at 150m plus
you dont know if thats before or after the diamond by any chance?
HA
in his quest line i think
@analog grail is that right?
whats a better bow razerback or bearclaw?
Out of those two, I'd have to say the razorback since it's a bit lighter
really?
just a .5 difference but .5 can mean an extra caller
do gredos ibex not count as goat?
all ibex are goats.
badens a bitch about what a goat is tho
Can you turn off night vision on the boniculars and the scope?
No
Thanks.
np
Ok so a while back I got the game on game pass and I played for a while you know got a couple dlcs but then I deleted it just recently I downloaded it again but the parque Fernando place didn’t save it doesn’t even say i own it anymore
How can i Fix?
This is a question. Are geese fixed?
There's a bug fix for goose spawns coming with the Arroyo update
If you're on PC, 29th
Not currently no
Ok thx
I'm scared to know how they're going to be after they "fix" them
Oh yeah lol
Dude I've updated the windows and already stylish the game someone help me !!!
It zeros where the bullet is going to hit at certain distances say like you're zero is at 300 m your bullet will hit dead on at 300 it will be high at 150 and low at 400
Yes
Well no
No
It adjusts the tights on the rifle to compensate the angle of shooting
Or bow
It compensates the bullet trajectory
bullet drop is a thing. zeroing adjusts the arc the bullet takes to hit dead on the crosshair at a certain range
@last hemlock
it doesnt adjust the arc, but the aim point. Right? Not trying to argue semantics just wondering if the game does things differently.
im saying it to simplify things lol
Oh okay, thank you!
is it better to use the duck ground blind for hunting geese or the actual goose blind? ive seen people use both
I like the goose one
the duck blind allows you to scope in
?
but the goose is made for the geese
You can in both
i thought while you have a weapon out while in the goose hunting thing you jump up out of it
or jump up and scare them
When you when you aim your character sits up to shoot
doesnt that scare the geese?
And can spook then if it's like on top of it
But if it's a couple yards away no
I thank it's like under 8-10yrds
But that's with anyone of th
Them
alright thanks
Question, can I not put the lion multi mount in Spring Creek Manor?
Correct. Spring creek manor does not have the mount size necessary for it
They need another lodge, bigger, like a museum.
Just starting off at this game. Any advice on what to hunt to make money/ what equipment to but first?
What DLCs do you own?
Anyone knows why the harvest check does not pass ? I used the right class weapon and put it down in one shot
Are you in multiplayer?
It’s likely that someone else shot it with the wrong ammo twice
And the elk didn’t die
usually if someone else shot the elk, it would show up
If a time change happens or the player in question leaves the server, their shots won't appear on the animal's harvest screen
another reason to not play mp with randos
Has anyone had any issues out of the new Windows update?
I'm curious to know before I update
does a damn thing live here?
I dont think so
Are you talking about windows 11? The windows 10 update added a kinda annoying news panel but I do like the weather being shown.
What the hell is Windows 11
My computer has a Windows update and I didn't know if there is a recent one that came out and if people have been having issues with a recent Windows update
xD, sorry Im tired. I havent had issues with the windows update but windows 11 is coming out soon or something
