Yeah, that and adding the trophy info to spotting sounds appealing to me. Also, the bloodhound kind of seems like it makes up for some of the stalking skills. I'm sort of battling with mysef into/out of resetting the tree because 24k hurts lol
I can only really compare to my own skillset, but mind showing what you have so far?
don't really see a reason to reset so far~
you should be more than good with these for now
is connect the dots worth it
I've found it useful more times than not, so ye?
I'd say yes
You do get to an awkward spot where you want to unlock the next tier but have the essentials perked into already, and connect the dots is the best of the leftover options
i wonder
if i disable pack mule
what it would do to my body
i gave up tag lvl 1 for it
I like it it has been useful
And helpful
Imo Disturbed vegetation is not really needed since either normally or with a perk you can find out what fur type your animal you're tracking is by activating the track blood spot or poop and opening the map and it gives the info to it in the bottom right half
it can be useful when there's a big gap in animal tracks though
which higher-leveled animals are prone to doing
like a lvl 9 ber
iirc you can only get that info on the map if you have both disturbed veg and track knowledge 3
Or tracking a bobcat and not being able to see the damn tracks lol in mid day
That's for the little thing to pop up to activate that is like a track I'm talking about if you open the map in the menu it shows up in the bottom right
Sorry not bottom right
Mid right
This
no yeah, I'm talking about that too
It shows N/A until you have the perks
Ohh ok yeah you don't have to have Disturbed vegetation
I guess it's all three of the first one
you might also need disturbed veg yeh?
sure
thanks
how come penetration is more important than expansion? Is this really the case with all cartridges?
yeah
its either get into a vital or flesh
on most guns
you can do well with soft points
but not as well
this kinda doesn't make sense, the expansion creates a bigger hole in the animal and should drop them dead easier
but I guess the devs just wanted an excuse for cheap bullets vs expensive ones
Expansion is damage on hit, penetration is well, penetration. Bullets with higher expansion increase the bleed rate of the animal and make them die faster, but penetration makes reaching the vitals easier.
The reason high-pen ammo is the "meta" is that the game prioritizes reaching a vital organ vs time to kill
and usually a polymer tip will drop an animal faster reaching both lungs than a soft point reaching just one
I see. So it's about how many organs you hit vs bleed rate.
exactly
I suppose you're not eating the poor animal in the game so this makes a bit more sense now XD
you don't want a bullet going through their entire body irl
this game is mostly trophy hunting, so take that as you will~
it doesn't affect the score right, hollow point vs tipped?
nope
as long as you reach a vital organ (part of the harvest check) then you're good
and the .44 performs well for its class range, but I haven't heard anything about it being exceptional
.454 tho
yeah 100 penetration wth
oh .454 is a hand cannon
it shouldn't be. that should be the .500 SW but the game doesn't have it
game should go 357, .41 then .500
-.-
is there a table somewhere for each map, and which animals are which class etc? there was a sweet guide on a steam for one of the maps, but only exists for 3
check out the spreadsheet in the pinned comment on #509301826869264385
7mm is a good gun for bison though isn’t it
ehh
It loses power quickly and unless you make an accurate shot it's harder to reach the vitals with it, specially at range
it works, tho
against bison and buffalo, specifically
so 30'06 for everything, 454 or 45-70 for bison?
those things are built like tanks
wait let me see if I even have those with the dlc
only 30'06 should be dlc from that list
but yeah, .454 is good for bison
.45-70 works decently as well, but you'd have to get closer than you'd do with the 7mm for example
48k 🙂
but you seem to be using pistols a lot so that shouldn't be an issue~
I never used a pistol. was using the 50 cal for bears and 243 for everything else
muzzleloader?
i dunno how you feel about unscoped shotguns but the 10ga loaded with slugs can take 6-9
yeah
I tried running with it when I first got the game. needs at least proper iron sights
yeah, that's fair
i wish we could put a red dot on it
at least
ooh
do you own the goose DLC?
yeah
I got the 2021 edition on PS4/PS5
and I guess everything on PC earlier today but I'm not switching to that for a while
Oh, huh
also it rains in rancho
I have everything on console I think except the dog
Well, I can't say for sure on consoles, but if you have the goose DLC setting up a space on Hirsch can be an easy money maker
Hirsch is a map?
before I go there, I want a bison lol
Will the 600 grain arrow be enough? it says up to 9 but range looks pathetic
european bison are on hirch
Well, it's an arrow
its a bow\
You're not shooting anything beyond 120m with it~
pfft
lemme find my 200m+ shot with the longbow
600gr are little beasts tho
nvm its heavy
Texas heartshots on the biggest game, all day
Also, don't get too hung up on ammo stats, they don't matter too much in the field
Everything in this game (perhaps except the .223) is viable and useful
okay
30-30 good?
Yea but not as good as the power of family
Pls
but at close range?
Depends on what u hunt, but most things are good close range
600gr arrows have absolutely STUPID penetration
Can the 22 kill anything besides geese turkey and rabbits and ducks?
it can, but not very well
i killed a water buffalo with the .22 pistol
BIG regret
Yeah I meant like ethical
nope
Class 1 only
Also is cuatro Colinas a good reserve for someone with a little experience but not the most
I'd say yes. Just beware of wolves.
yeah, but silver ridge peaks imo is the best
Yeah I’m deciding between cuatro and silver ridge
Cuatro has side missions, SRP doesn't.
Cuatro's also prettier imo
i agree
And I’m Leaning towards silver ridge cause I’d prefer turkey
I don’t have to have them but it’s really preferred
And has Airbnb’s rather than outposts
any tips on finding animals to hunt im going around the lakes on layton lake and not finding too much
Check the time. They dont drink on the waterhole 24/7
Turkeys ate them all
eh, i found some limited use with the 223
With these mods on this game can they change how long a need zone is?
rules

Sorry
I just saw a suspicious server
what bout it
no
Well can’t really talk about it
If you have the "Who's Deer" skill from the Ambusher tree, elk caller works for them
wow
how often
fairly often in my experience
might take 1 to 3 uses to catch their attention though
if you have the whos deer skill
Water
Lol 5-9 and 17-21
5:30-9:30 and 17:30-21:30 is more accurate actually
Like everywhere. Right lakes are great. Top left lakes are good. Coast line up top is decent. Best lake is the big lake mid-top right
aight
Check your dm
I don’t really know what they’re talking about because that’s not specific at all. The audio issue I’ve always had is constant bush sounds after walking through bushes. Not sure if they will ever fix that
nvm
But I haven’t had any other audio issues so idk
no footstep audio
no brush audio
no claim audio
no wind audio
occasional lag spikes
60fps average (120 for most maps)
I’m on Xbox so I’ll never even reach 60fps in this game. 120 sounds like a dream. I do have no footstep/bush/wind audio the odd time but changing between running walking or jumping fixes it.
ha! we barely even reach 30
what.
Not sure what triggers it but sometimes I lose that audio and have to jump or change between walking/running to fix it
man on vurhonga at some lakes i barely get 5-10 on xbox
Yeah. Lol I won’t be able to test that for another couple months
But let’s make the wildebeest herds be in the 50-60 animal range and see what happens
oh boy, sneaking up on the herds and then accidentally spooking them at around 30 yds and you got a console breaker
srp is also broken at least until a hotfix, so
same as vurhonga
What's broken on it? Lag issues?
I play so often with no sound I could have all the sound glitches in the world and not notice them.
I thought yukon had the broken fast travel?
current fast travel and audio/performance affect multiple reserves
I geuss I’ll wait to buy it
I'd still buy it
Hm. I must be getting lucky. No lag on Vurhonga, SRP fast travel working fine (yeeted all over the place making $$).
PC or console?
actually, looks like srp isn't on the list for major audio issues
Might be a console thing but some console folks have been complaining about lag issues as of late.
because the issues are post-Rancho
just pack some tents and you should be fine :p ||mostly||||awooo||
Any new issues come up btw, @tranquil tundra?
there might be something up with the 10ga shotgun
or at least its birdshot
aiming right at a goose, it's like it phases right through it
and I know it's not my aim, because pre-Rancho I used that thing to clear out entire flocks
video?
Should I report the ATV space program to the devs to fix? :v
pls dont 🦆
hahaha
are there any good iberian wolf hotspot, aside from the north east lake in Cuatro ?
I have them pretty much everywhere on the eastern side of the map.
my drilling rifle/shotgun isnt switching ammo types
PC or Console?
Pc
known issue
hey guys im just wondering if they updated the levels for humans in the game cuase im level 61 rn
most common in multi-player
screenshot?
that sus
it happened to both of us\
Kinda sus man
Yeeeeaaa alright. 57 perk points, 97mil money and past lvl 60. Not even sus, I can guarantee mods are involved.
They were a year ago but I kept it at level 60 but now it just went to 61 that’s how this all started off
lol
Mods are mods and will affect your game, badly almost always. If something is iffy and you've modded the game, that's why. Also from rules "J) I will not share images of, or discuss cheats, hacks or Mods. This ruins the game for others."
Mods are not supported. If you use them at any point, you are risking breaking the game.
The over leveling might actually be a good thing. At least if they join to someone else's lobby they'll know that something is not quite right. It should be a feature.
Lol true. I'd leave such server in a heartbeat.
I don’t have the mod sight on my new pc that’s the thing
Your save is clearly hacked with impossible amount of money and perk points.
Taylor, your level is going to continuously go up. The game hasn't registered that you are level 60
This is why you don't use mods, it breaks your game, so you will level up either to around 120 or it will just keep going and going
any tips on how to get ibex as close as 30m to me ?
crawl, slowly
You can fix that stuff with a save profile transplant, but thats basically it @fossil juniper
You're going to lose whatever money you've aquired that way, as well as any additional ammo, weapons and levels, with such being replaced by the person who "donated" a copy of their profiles inventory
I had a friend that I was playing with that dosent have mods and he leveled up to 61 to
Used that fix multiple times after losing my saves, one time I was unfortunate enough to get hacked files from a Steam friend, so yeah. Fixed that up as well
Honestly dont call it mods, its hacks. Not even sure if they affect people youre on the same profile as or not, but we're not supposed to discuss that stuff here
So yeah.
Get a "thp_player_profile_adf" from someone you KNOW isnt hacking, paste it into your game files, and it should fix the issue
Not a damned clue how it functions with DLC inventories, or mission related items, but again thats the only way I know of to actually fix this kind of thing
Closest we have to "profile recovery"
Bug or feature, but not ALL huts are revealed when unlocking outlook towers. I have stumbled upon 2 so far. This last one was 'hidden' far up in the hills.
Theres always secret ones u can find
It's always nice to have this kind of secret
It is a nice surprise 🙂
Hello fallow hunters.
I got the game some days ago and I stumbled upon a QR code that my phone doesn't recognize to scan it.
Does it means that it's no longer a thing or something?
That was a clue for te awaroa before it came out
Oh interesting! Thank you. 😄
Np
So guys, I'm having some trouble regarding Ring Necked Pheasant hunt. I don't know if I'm real bad at aiming flying animals or what, but I have lots of difficulty when hunting a flying pheasant. Do you guys have some nice tips and advices to make it easier to hunt these guys?
use shotgun
Shotguns miss too.
dont aim the bird, but aim where the birds gonna be
is cotw available on mac any way possible?
Totally gonna try this!
I'll try this too. I don't like the lack of reach of the shotgun, but I'm gonna give it a try
well the pheasants are pretty small, so you will do most of your shooting close range
i shot geese out of the sky quite a few times, the reach is no issue here 
Allthough in real life, I would have had something different to say about the surprise 😅 Having just carried a tent ALL the way up there, sweating in the heat.
Bro, fix the drilling shot gun yo instead of fixing some damn dogs eyes
Wuh
nope, from the steam store page
thanks man
Heya guys, is there a way to climb into hunting stands and fall through the floor less, I mean like a ceratin way that you must enter it at an angle or something that helps you spawn in the stand work. I am having the bug more than half the stands I climb into.
Not really, you'll just have to avoid them until they release a fix for that
okay thanks @toxic bane 🙂
Tripods, as a substitute, if you have them, work fine (as far as I know).
@iron fern Hey man, sorry to spam the stream. The hunt club beta needs addressed for sure. It works fine for your animal population when it’s turned off. Try it for yourself. After you disable it and turn it off, you will need to restart your game application. I have a ton of testimonials that say my advice saved their game. It is key to keep the player base and community happy. Even, Lady, Jaxy, and many other top streamers have disabled it and noticed a huge difference in how their population spawn, and respawn. I hope this helps
I am streaming again tonight, so will test it myself. But never the less, I have passed it onto the team to look into! 🙂
It should not have anything to do with the spawn though as far as I know... which TBH is not far.
wdym, works fine for me
Right on, you would think it wouldn’t. It does for some reason though. Not sure how, but it’s something for the team to prioritize in my opinion.
Well if it is, we will find out!
Thank you man. Have a good day, catch you later in your stream
Thanks for the help and the information!
Do u hold R? To switch ammo types? And are you single or multi player?
What's max score for chamois ?
which rifle should i get as my second? and is a 4x-8x scope worth it for 12k ?
no max
- what do you already have and what DLC's do you have?
- YES, YES, YES. GET IT
i have no dlcs :(
and i'd like to get some but the dlc bundle 2021 is 40€, which of the bundles is worth
Mind that you won't be able to buy any bundles if you already own the base game (silly, I know)
WUT
is that
wat?
thats dumb
bought most in the 2021 edition
then bought the rest seperatly
I had to buy the DLCs piece by piece
so I know
very dumb
imo what they should do is like if you own the base game or any of the other bunldles, they should still allow you to purchase it but at a slightly reduced price as you own portions of the bundle
that's what every other game does, yes
I imagine the reasoning for it is that the bundles have a deeper discount than the base game + individual DLCs on sale
so they don't allow you to do that because of the price disparity
what that says about EW/Avalanche or Steam is up to y'all
I bought the 2019 edition when it went on sale to see if I liked the game. Got hooked and bought most of the DLC a couple days later. On sale, it wasn't too much above the discounted cost for buying all of it at once so I'm not really upset. Seems reasonable for a game with this much content. That being said, base game kind of sucks without at least some quality of life dlc, so it's hard to get other people into the whole DLC thing.
hey guys, i have a question. when i play on silver ridge peaks i cant fast travel to the outpost i want to travel to but the game moves me to a random one instead. did anyone have this problem as well?
yes
its a known issue that should be fixed next patch
how long does dead animal stay on the ground(in-game time), and does it stay like that even if i leave game or it crashes?
i can buy 1 dlc for the game what should it be
its broken rn
wdym its broken?
Yeah fast travel is broken on SRP. You'd have to go The Long Way to get to the other side of the map, for instance
if i have the srp can my friends play with me on the map if they dont have it
yes
Does anyone know the max weight for gemsbok?
240 kg
It's 210kg, actually. Here's my max score one for proof
if some deers saw me and ran away from the lake, will they come back? they still had 3 hours left to drink
Yeah, they should return.
is there anything more to tracks besides following them
cus they all just end in nothing
Are you on console?
Its a visual glitch @worthy fox
That's a display bug, which was fixed on PC with the Rancho patch.
thanks
does being in a tree stand make the guns more accurate
or is it just me
breath hold resets faster too it seems
I don't think it does anything to accuracy, no
243 has severe drop without stand, no drop with stand
height advantage
I wouldn't mind that jumping on to Hirsch for the first time immediately introduces you to the shooting range, yeh
Parque kinda does it
but their range isn't as useful for guns, and just a bit more useful for bows
There reason it doesn't, because the range wasn't there at release.
does the handgun ranger perk work for all classes? or just handguns?
"ability to gauge approximate distance to a target while aiming with any weapon"
which rifle should i get after the ranger? i dont have dlc
which maps are you hunting in
the lake one
it got lake in it name
layton
check the 6.5mm and .270 ammo, whichever has more penetration I guess
6.5mm
so i shouldnt buy rifles?
just much betterthan the .270
those are both rifle cartridges
you want the gun names?
hold on
.270
yes, i am looking for a new rifle, or arent these recommended
You're a bit limited without any DLCs tbh
oh nvm 6.5 is DLC
which are worth getting for a cool weapon?
has there been any updates on the glitchy quests in the new map? I've been stuck on "Y TAMBIEN TU HERMANOS" for about 2 days now
.300 is a rifle?
and the 6.5 (Cuatro) is excellently accurate
.300 caliber rifle needs rifle score of 6500, meaning even if you buy the dlc it's not an instant unlock
its called .270 huntsman, and .270 stradivarus, they're free and require only 700 rifle xp
all
It works all classes. The range it gives is usually like 10-22m or 72-92m so it's not exact. The longer the distance the more it has difference between the numbers
is the huntsman a good choice`?
but buying a ramgefinder is more worth it
It does say "any weapon" in the description
as an upgrade from the ranger
but yeah you still want to get the rangefinder binos
its the same just looks different. the stradivarus is all you need for layton
you'll just need a 22LR or high gauge shotgun for the class 1
so stradivarus > ranger 243?
and the .243
you still need the ranger for coyotes
but stradivarus is for deers or other stuff
Yeah
then i have been hunting wrong the entire time xD
...honestly, you'll probably want to save up for the .338 before you think about moose or elk.
or the 7mm
yeah
ranger for coyotes
.270 for anything bigger
birdshot shotgun or .22 for small animals
I think the ranger perk is good for bows because they are a bit more difficult
.270 can bring down elk or moose, but you won't get much for QK bonus
not without a heartshot
i dont believe i will ever reach .338.
i killed some with the .243 with a shot in the lunght
but it always took a long time to find them
because they keep running for ever
is it better to always go for the head?
Head isn't good for trophy rating
Failed harvest check though.
that'd ruin a diamond.
i only find golds
It also messes golds
where do i have to shoot for a perfect insta kill?
well, if you ever find a diamond
Heart
Depends on the animal
it still bumps golds down to silver, and silvers down to bronze
oh thats hard i tried it sometimes
and bronze to "none"
If we're talking about moose, then it's heart
Don't go for an animals heads. Their brains are too tiny and make a small part of their heads, you'll never hit it.
Also you'll ruin the trophy organ in most cases.
so my only option is heart which is super hard to hit
Yeah head = skull, and skull = trophy organ
It's not too hard once you memorize where it is
There's a story mission on Hirsch that basically makes you learn where it is on a deer
its like between the legs if they look at me. but what makes it impossible is the breathing effect
how do i do those story missions?
i followed the turorial on layton,
thats it
There are rifle perks that help with that
oh Layton's story is weird
you have to travel to a different region to kick it into gear
I think the next mission should come after the previous is finished
are the missions, if this guy sends me "coordinates" of an animal track he saw
No the missions are in the mission section in the pause screen
Also missions are single player I believe
Yep.
that explains it, multiplayer is pretty bugged, i dont have a single animal spot because my friend always hosts and it doesnt get brought over to my map
so in singleplayer on layton i have half of the map discovered, but not a single drinking spot for example
YOUR FRIEND IS USING YOU TO FIND NEED ZONES 😉
caps. 👀
i am getting abused
PLOT TWIST
I need more high density maps like yukon for multiplayer, any suggestions?
Was thinking silver maybe
The new maps have pretty high animal density. SRP, Te Awaroa, Rancho all pretty good.
so, I missed the stream.
did they mention anything about fixing the completely unplayable maps like yukon?
or is the map just broken until the 'next major release' ?
is there a caller for water buffalo
Nope
What's broken in yukon?
even with who's deer?
Oh I don't know that. Never used the perk.
if you try to fast travel anywhere you get sent to the starting dock.
🤔
Never had that, must be frustrating
For me savanna and taiga are broken, they just lose sound after a while.
Yukon has been my home for some days now.
I have flickering grass on Hirschfelden
That's a feature. 😋
Also sometimes walking sounds disappear or the trees scratching sound keeps going
But it stops when I stop for a while
But I guess those are part of the game 😜
But the flickering grass is very annoying
omg and i thought it was my computer
when I zoom in on binoi or scopes in a tripod it makes the tripod placement sound the whole time. but that was there the last patch too.
is the bearclaw compound better than razerback
There's honestly not much of a difference aside from the .5 in weight
I'm about to unlock .300 magnum, do I go for pene or expa bullets?
Basically almost every lake
Getting nothing but Elk on Layton
I don't know much about layton, I started my grind in rancho
what's the best weapon type for mass duck hunting? i'm guessing shotguns?
22 if you have the dlc
i use the pistol up close and the rifle when they fly far
that's 20 shots total
thanks!
pistol or rifle
why isn't my range finder sight for the crossbow working?
@worthy fox
alright
Has anyone found a use/purpose for the dog's howl?
Is there a delay between diamonds? I just killed one but fucked it up and idk if theres a delay before i will be able to see another
no you can theoretically kill two back-to-back diamonds if they spawn next to each other
the likelihood of that happening is incredibly small though
No delay. If there is another diamond, there is another diamond. If there isn’t. Therre isn’t.
ive messed up three in total
From what ive learned it means nothing some people think it lures wolfs but idk
yeah i nearly cried haha
it all depends on the willingness of RNGesus to give you one and your ability to find one
i was shaking and just couldnt hit a vital
if you get into a situation like that, take a minute to breathe and slow down and let the adrenaline rush die down a bit
That's what I figured. My dog is cucked so hard, and now I gotta spend 45k to buy a new one because the traits don't really tell you what they do mechanically, so I picked stuff that are garbage. Can't retrain D:
yeah i just got way too like idk excited ig and just chased it
had i not done that, i probably would not have a piebald diamond lynx today. it took me a good minute or two to regain enough composure to crawl up and line up a shot. he wasnt going anywhere for a while, so i had time to breathe a bit
it may sound dumb, but how do i find more stationary animals? always when i go to a drinking spot at the right time they will just go away instantly so most of my kills are kills why the animals are running away
I was doing a cape and I didnt know it was there till it started running so should've waited till it stopped
Dont run and crouch/crawl when you get near
because most of the time they warn me because i was sprinting even though i wasnt able to see them before
what should i do then?
arent these all my methods
If ur headed to a drink zone do that idk what u can do if ur not
Ig just walk everywhere
so for example if i see stationary deers, lets say 5, i should position my self well and i will kill one. they will keep coming back to the spot right
I try and get 2 or more lol
Yes they will go back there if it's a feed, rest, or drink zone
I forgot to mention I had large backpack on as i was taking tent to a location 😬
if i find tracks, how should i follow them? sprint, walk or crouch?
crouch
walk if very old or old
crouch sprint or crouch walk?
crouch sprint
normal walk if the poop is old or very old
alright, and how long does it usually take animals to get to their next spot?
so if o find tracks how long will i crouch around till they stop
okay i will try that tomorrow when i will play hirschfelden for the first time.
Has anyone else been unable to shoot stuff with the new shotgun while ADS? lmao
press R
it forgets to pump
So silly lmao heres a new gun, but you gotta hipfire it and have crappy shots lmao
you dont have to hipfire...
You just said after reloading, I have to either press R again, or hip fire
That guy is on drugs apparently
Either way it seems like its not working as intended if I can hip fire, but not use ADS without any other inputs
"... or hipfire"
"you don't have to hipfire..."
heres a fun fact, those quotes are from the same person.
lmao
this game is so busted lately.
guys, if goose fly fast in V pattern, they'll never react to caller/lure right ?
im not even playing, just watching someone play and its bugging me lol.
They react in any pattern
hmm I wasnt able to do this with fast flying V
On console there broken tho
Were they fleeing originally ?
If so
Then they wont do anything
Did i help?
as soon as I hear them I spam caller but those fly high/fast in V pattern, never reacted to my caller and lures so I was wondering if this goose spawn is like that always
Nope possibly a glitch or just unlucky
other more chaotic formations are fine, just V one is weird
If you call enough from a field + have decoys, you might see them pop into spottable mode
They all usually work
hmm, gonna keep trying then, had ~10 so far yesterday/today, maybe a bug
Possibly
any1 can send me a whipped of silver ridge peaks?
whipped?
Raid?
what?
is like push the animals to a spot they cant run away and kill them easy
Confusion intestifies *
sorry idk how to say
no such place
That really isn’t a thing but in the plains
Like for bison black bear pronghorn mules and rme
The last 2 are rarely
but u know one or no?
depends what you want to push
Pronghorn is easy in the middle of the plains
It’s difficult tho
And not that efficient
It’s difficult to start but easy to finish and not worth it
can u show me a picture please
Tf dude this isn’t a legitimate hunting strategy. No i dont have a pic
Its a waste of time and your best bet is just running around and shoot everything
geese hunting works for cash
What?
which one
the one u can place in the floor
Just run around with a call a 22lr and birdshot
so they r useless
ye
Pretty much
thanks boys
Np man
sorry i have another question xD when the animals run out of render with a hit and die he dissapear?
or what happen?
on console, yes
PC, no
Dang what was the weight?

Weight?
You must’ve made a bad shot or smth
and anyrifle good what i can buy?
i got tthis alredy other 11?
I rock 22,243,m1and 7mm
what does the air rifle cover again?
I saw a guy the other day who only used the drilling rifle
thats some dedication
drill shotgun is good?
Difficult
if you know what youre doing then its pretty good
its one of those guns that is hit or miss
im pretty sure it does
by unconventional means
What it called?
The vasquez cyclone right?
You're going to get yourself banned if you keep bringing it up
Also, isn't every gun hit or miss?
I had to add the anger face i am sorry
i meant its overall more difficult when it comes to usage
hard to explain what i was thinking
Well accept for point blank 😛
any good spot for place a tent?
finger guns
ridge peaks
Dude your questions are so random. Practically anyone you want one
im just asking u dont have to reply
on silver ridge theres a small amount of useful spots
is this rare?
since the outposts are so close to the water
It's always gonna be up to you, but always consider what your good hunting spots are that are far away from regular outposts.
Yeah srp outposts are nice
mainly near to lakes?
also Uintah and lone island lake are good places to check for animals
No uncommon unfortunately
Uncommon, but dilute is such a good color
Nice rac tho
thank you!
i havent seen that rack yet
ooh that reminds me, I found a dilute mulie track (silver at best probably sadly) that I'm going to have to find
the ones i get on mulies are kinda disappointing
I have never found a good mulie
i thought it was albino
But i am not ever looking lol
i have a few golds but nothing too impressive
That happens to me all the time but with grey mountain lion
the first time i found a grey i thought it was albino
same thing with mexican bobcat, I saw white one I was like albino?? it was not XD
Leusistic pronghorn looks like albino too
Common bobcats look albino but they aren't
I saw this but render glitch and bison got the better of me
🥲
I stick to srp vurhonga yukon and sometimes cuatro
That was my first diamond not that long ago
My first was a springbok around 6 months ago
my first two were mallards actually
I love him
that reminds me i have a lvl 3 harlequin on my parque
Teal?
i mix them up, my mistake
Ur good

so i’ll have to hunt him down at some point
I saw my diamond turkey practically fly over me
same
Didn’t know it was there until i got him
yknow the mountain lion thing i mentioned
Yep
thats nice
Like in 2 minutes of each other
id love to get a gold rare fur type on a red deer
like gold piebald would be awesome
i dont have the money to buy the tripod pack, are ground-blinds just as effective?
Nope in my opinion
with hunting pressure im sure they are
but im sure the height difference is the main factor
Yeah
gotta love that ground blinds let you see practically 5 feet each side
Is anyone else having issues with waypoints in multiplayer games?
Not being able to see others' waypoints and vice versa?
I have inssue with them in singeplayer. They don't dissappear when I reach my destination.
It's been like that, so I'm pretty sure it's a feature
I'm pretty sure it wasn't always like that.
Wait we are supposed to be able to see other ppl waypoint ??
Yes, since the Rancho update. "▸ User can now see other users’ waypoints in map during multiplayer session; "
Pretty sure i tried that w stranger few days back but nothing shows up
It’s a feature, not a bug
If you say so.
yes
Apparently it's a setting that is not enabled by default
How rare would this be, I just got it and its technically my first actual rare.
Decently rare. There’s rarer fur types, but piebald is still decently rare
is getting the yukon dlc for the .300 worth it?
im still using the .243 ngl
don't have enough rifle score for anything 😔
I would say yes. The .300 is a very good rifle for anything class 7 and above. But you'll need more rifle score and in game cash.
It might be better first to buy either Weapon Pack 3 for the Eckers or Smoking Barrels for the M1. You won't need rifle score for those.
im still level 9 and pretty new to the game
well i would be level 11 if my cloud save didn't glitch out
Or you can just wait until you can buy the 7mm which is the most versatile gun in the game. Very accurate even at 300m+ shots, and you can take down anything from class 4 to 9.
The down side is that it's a break-action gun.
break-action?
U don't really need .300 from yukon Rangemaster 338 is enough to kill everything 7-9 but it has only 1 ammo
It's a single-shot break-action gun, so you'll have to reload it after each shot.
ooh.
yesterday i killed whole +15 bisons group with it coz they didn't want to run into me so no chance kill them with bow
i'm just running around the game like a headless chicken without dlc because my friends bought the dlcs with the maps
Breaks open for reloading
Most double barrel shotguns are break-action, for instance
Yeah. Even though if you have the perk for increased reload speed, it's not that bad at all.
if u wanna hunt something faster like moose Rangemaster 338 won't be best option but it's bit cheaper coz only 60k compared to .300 cost 75k
The .300 is also much more flat shooting than the .338, and it's a bolt-action gun which can be a huge advantage.
Rangemaster has pretty fast reload but when u wanna hit 2/3 before they flee it may be challanging to new player
yea... i only have enough rifle score to unlock the 12000 gun so far
a bit of a ways to get to 4k
I have never tried hyperion for 12k but i heard that many ppl recommend it for start
It's a matter of preference. The Argus has better zoom, but the Hyperion is much less wobbly.
I used the Argus for a long time, then switched to the Hyperion, and I think I prefer the latter. To me the extra stability is more valuable.
I was lucky with getting money when AI was broken at beggining and got 120k in few days so in short time i could get Rangemaster + Argus scope
I shot many wobbly without holding breath coz i'm used to play with 9000 dpi and 4500/6000 dpi long range
but i'm just used to high dpi mouse coz i hate to pick up mouse to don't lose stability
i only knew you could zoom in binoculars and scopes yesterday .-.
shot everything at 1x scope..
so right now u know that u can use scroll to zoom up
yes
🙂
what maps are u usually playing with ur friends?
Yukon alone for the map and sp mission is already worth
.300 is bonus, but it's my go to class 7-9
I suggest u to have in ur inventory at least 20 med packs and keep it under hotkey 0 so u can heal urself easily when something will attack(wolfs are pretty aggressive when u get too close without being noticed at begginig) u or rush on u when u standing on their route(bisons/deers)
i'll keep that in mind thanks
im just rushing levels for skills right now i guess, doing couple of singleplayer missions while my friends are busy
I have friend that didn't know about medpacks and gave up after bisons' rush close to new outpost that he didn't unlock yet after 2nd attempt he just gave up. And I just asked him "why u didn't heal with med packs" "ohh u could told me that before"
but at that moment he did refund -_-
Wait. Really?
yea it was during AI issues after release
Most people refund for not finding animals. That's a first one lol
I'm not sure what they expect from a hunting game.
lol... im really bad at finding animals ngl
they were crazy running around trees
They need a shooting gallery or something.
Me too man, me too
Then i learn about water
They are like animal magnets
Are the missions best way to get xp and money?
but at beggining when ai was broken u could make shooting gallery at least 4 times in 1 hr
Dont run, sneak :)
Not really.
Whats the way?
I usually run til im 200 m away from water, then just crouch there
not really sprinting in game
Just farming animals?
just normal walking
The ultimate money maker is geese hunting currently.
Dont you need that pack?
Walking is kinda loud surprisingly
yea im rushing the perk that minimizes noise when walking through grass..
The pack helps. But you can just use the caller, and a tripod. It will be less efficient but still pretty good. You just need something with birdshot if you don't have weapon pack 1.
100m noise radius when just walking is just kinda... infuriating sometimes
after all upgrades i would recommend sneak with crouching + shift it's a bit slower than walking but less visible and more silent
i guess it_ is _ a hunting game and im not used to it yet
basically duck your way to the animals
i hunted a mythical black bear earlier but didn't have 7-9 ammo yet :/
was a gold but ended up being silver
got only 700 TT
and on my laptop when i crash the mobs don't count for cash and exp when i reconnect and find them :/
Damn Savanna is half the price rn should I cop?
found a lake with 15 pronghorns 3 bears and 4 mountain elks, dced just after i shot the first time
I like Savanna but it's broken right now
Oh
so everything ran off and i got no cash and exp
I reckon itd be fix soon, but id snatch since it's still on sale
Do yourself a favor and buy Weapon Pack 1 if you haven't already. The .22LR is your only option for long range small game hunting.
i bought the game and after a couple of hours wanted to buy the 2021 pack
but they don't allow buying the bundle if you have the base game already..
Oof.
kinda annoyed..
cus i did want to buy the bundle after playing and then was hit with that message
meanwhile my friends were just hunting bisons like crazy while i carried the .243 being unable to get a single bullet to pierce anything besides flesh until recently when i bought the polymer tip bullets
and even then it's still a stretch sometimes
I got the 2021 bundle but am not sure what guns to use. I like the m1 tho
musket for the win
7mm good?
yes
the 7mm is good
M1 is really good for its class
question
How about Eckers .30-06 and F.L. Sporter .303? Is there any difference? Sporter has one extra expansion on polymer
What's the file that contains map POI's?
All excellent medium game rifles. Pick whichever one you like most
.303 knocks em dead. Eckers was my favorite until I learned the m1 weighed less and had one more round and was semi auto. Also they changed the Eckers sound. I wish the bolt action gun had some advantage like less scope sway.
Id go with .303, but they really need to quicken the bolts cycling speed a bit.
Allright. Thanks!
Ok. Thanks! I'm not sure if I would get used to M1 because I've now used to always chamber by myself :D
Does the "reload faster" perk affect chambering? Or is it just for reloading
Only reloading
Allright
what’s the best load out for the new map
for me it'd be the .243 (or the 30-30 for cool factor.) 12 gauge pump for birds. And really thats it. Throw in a bow if you can for close quiet shots or squeezing one more kill from a zone.
so you have to press f6 in the session. THEN you have to Left click o one of the playersw and THERE is the setting that activates it.
then you can see others waypoints. idk why they hid it like that.
tyty
What level mute deer make diamond
i am thinking about getting some DLC, which of the DLC are really good? with good weapons for example or a good map
Tent, Tripod + Stand, and ATV imo
imo weapon pack 1 and 4 are good, if you have extra get weapon pack 3
thank you for the advice
can you also recommend a map?
i like deers, but thats the only cool animal i got
i would enjoy a map which is very open
Vurhonga and silver ridge peaks got good lots of open area
thank you!
nw
if a drinking spot still exists after i dropped a deer, it means more will come right? they have 2hrs left at the spot
Is the savanna map broken?
broken how?
Prolly the no audio bug after 20 min
Are you on pc?
ye
Yeah
Im on ps4
yea it got fucked after the rancho update
Medved taiga too
I seem to keep audio longer if i dont use an ATV, ATV seems to really break it for me
So you reckon ps4 fine?
Yes when i use atv its like 5-10 min then boom 20 -30 fps
ps4 is fine
Thank you lads!
Did this start before or after you shot an animal? Or just after some time? I had it happen several times, but it seems to be after I shot something. My FPS is going down to 20 (normally about 80).
🤬 Vurhonga, SRP, Yukon are now completely unplayable (different reasons). Any other maps that are not working? (FPS/Sound issue or no fast travel?)
happened to me like before
Thanks. Probably just coincidence for me that I shot an animal. Very annoying bug though. Sad part is we'll have to wait until the next DLC for it to be addressed since EW almost never put out hotfixes. 3 maps at least are not working now.
SRP i have no issue tho
I cannot fast travel on SRP and Yukon
only issue is that one travel point near the ghost town is bugged where just go under the ground
other than that SRP is fine
but maybe cause it's on single player
I am on single player. I can fast travel to tents, but not outposts; they either don't work or go to the wrong place
Yukon also has broken fast travel
works fine for me so far :\
otherwise these single player mission would be too annoyign
if i buy a map and host it, my friend can join it without buying?
yes
yes
that's also how you can test if you like a particular map or not by joining someone else session
where to shoot to kill a bison
Hey everyone, I just unlocked .300 and I'm having fun with it, but i some times encounter some lower class animals so I was thinking about having a second rifle with me for like 1-4 or 2-4 classes. Any suggestions?
Or I guess 3-6 even
see the blue and red
the lung ingame was bigger than that if I recall
also want some big daddy gun instead of .243
Class 2-6 use .243
Class 1 use .22LR
