gray wolf drink time is 2300 to 0300

ocean token
#

I do their rest time

#

11:00-19:00

#

That way its day time

last hemlock
#

the best place to hunt wolves is wolf head lake right?

ocean token
#

Usually

last hemlock
#

thought so

toxic bane
#

any lake on teekon forest, really

ocean token
#

Which is around 2

last hemlock
#

i got a need zone for 3:30 - 7:00

ocean token
#

That is feeding but yeah

last hemlock
#

does anyone know if geese r bugged?

tranquil tundra
last hemlock
#

oh ok

#

thought they was

#

i would be there for like 30 min and only get like 2 geese

tranquil tundra
#

the good news is that you might not have to deal with the bugs we PC people have to deal with rn

last hemlock
tranquil tundra
#

ah

last hemlock
#

yeah

#

getting a new monitor on the 11th

#

so

#

kinda hoping it comes early

velvet zephyr
#

this mission refuses to be completed ive taken pictures of several different black bears.

tranquil tundra
#

How close were they?

onyx plinth
#

probably not close enough

maiden tree
#

I used .300, .243 and 10GA in yukan pretty much all the time. Never been disappointed so far.

velvet zephyr
#

like 100m

tranquil tundra
#

Yeah that's too far

onyx plinth
#

you gotta be in hug distance close

toxic bane
vague cape
#

Once you hit level 60, what's the max amount of skill points you get?

thick marsh
#

30 i believe?

#

If every other point is for perk and other for skill

vague cape
#

after a certain level you stop receiving them that often

#

and i think it becomes like

#

every 3 or 4 levels

thick marsh
#

I see 🤔

vague cape
#

okay so a quick search says its 22 skill points and 22 perk points

thick marsh
#

Allright

#

Apparently after level 37 it starts to go point every 3 level

tranquil tundra
#

@toxic bane as resident bow expert, how does the 3-pin sight work in terms of where to aim in regards to distance?

last skiff
#

does anyone use dog treats? or is it not really worthwhile

toxic bane
#

I still like to give mine a treat after every one or every other harvest he tracks

last skiff
#

thanks!

toxic bane
#

ye~

slate sequoia
#

guys if i make a multimount can i seperate the trophies after if i want them somewhere else?

ocean token

That is incredibly hard gl

slate sequoia
ocean token
#

My next diamond i am trying to get is a puma or mtn lion. Or a gold rare idk

last skiff
#

does wind direction actually affect your bullets? or is it minimal

tranquil tundra
#

minimal

#

it's arrows that really get affected

ocean token
#

Yep

last skiff
#

i see, ty

hidden basin
last hemlock
#

why do i have 28

hidden basin
#

wuh

#

hax?

last hemlock
#

no?

#

why would i hack in a hunting game

#

let me check

slate sequoia
toxic bane
#

resetting skills can rarely reward you with an extra skill point

slate sequoia
#

someone in my lobby was doing it

toxic bane
#

I know flinter has an extra bugged point

last hemlock
#

ive reset too many times to count, scar

#

but i doubt it was that

toxic bane
#

It might be it, honestly~

last hemlock
#

i reset just to test things

#

its like 60k who cares

#

nah its 22

#

i just have a bad memory app

toxic bane
#

patpat

last hemlock
#

why did i think it was 28

hidden basin
#

Lol

brittle summit
#

so i reset

#

spend 1

#

reset

#

spend 1

#

reset
spend 1

#

reset
spend 1

#

until i get the skill point?

spring girder
#

That was a very old bug. Probably wouldn't work anymore.

brittle summit
#

lets try

#

i got 350k to spend

hidden basin
brittle summit
#

so 700k?

#

how do i check how much money i've gotten

hidden basin
#

bruh

brittle summit

brittle summit

very sad

#

chamois hotspots?

shrewd river
#

hey all...i stopped playing for quite some time....came back and whenever i log into silver ridge peaks i spawn at the road starting point, despite having several missions and outposts unlocked in the reserve and if i try to fast travel it always spawns me back at the starting spawn on the road in the farthest east of the map. i cant find a single bit of info online about this and if theres a fix...anyone know?

ocean token
#

Did you delete it before?

dull steppe
#

red deer hotspots?

toxic bane
last glade
#

i need some major advice for hunting geese because i have been having the worst luck for the longest time 😦

tranquil tundra
#

PC or console?

#

if console, best advice is to hang tight until the patch

wheat plover
#

i just harvested a level 8 red deer in parque doing campaign missions does it get auto taxed bc it was in a story mission and the body was invisible or no

#

bc i am really bummed

hidden basin
wheat plover
#

how do i get to that

toxic bane
#

first, did you harvest anything after that lv8

wheat plover
#

no

toxic bane
#

good

#

don't kill anything else

#

next, do you have trophy lodge DLC

wheat plover
#

i figured it out thank you

hidden basin
#

go into trophy lodge, then go into the in-game menu. trophy manager, then there will be a "last unsaved harvest"

#

aight cool

#

beware that de-render bugged animals will not have antlers in the lodge

wheat plover
#

i just figured that out the hard way

#

he had the rack i wanted also

#

UUUUUGH

#

NOW I GOTTA SEE IF THERE IS ANOTHER ONE AND GET CLOSE

toxic bane
#

mind yer caps

wheat plover
#

what is render distance?

tranquil tundra
#

415 meters

toxic bane
#

410m

tranquil tundra
#

roughly

wheat plover
#

k

tranquil tundra
#

depends on your graphical settings I think

wheat plover
#

so be under 400

tranquil tundra
#

Basically yeah

wheat plover
#

k

tranquil tundra
#

and don't take 300+ shots unless you're certain it'll go down fast

hidden basin
wheat plover
#

how close can i get runnigg bf without spooking

tranquil tundra
#

200, I think?

wheat plover
#

k

hidden basin
wheat plover
#

k when should i crouch

hidden basin
#

by the time you get close enough to crouch, you'd already be close enough to line up a good shot

#

but i still suggest crouching when you get that shot ready so you have a bit less sway

wheat plover
#

k thanks for the help

hidden basin
#

👌

wheat plover
#

can a level 4 axis make diamond and what is diamond trophy rating for them

toxic bane
wheat plover
#

k

toxic bane
#

it will answer any question about minimum diamond score for any animal

#

also, in general animals that max at 5, lv4 can soooometimes make it to diamond

#

which is the case with axis

tranquil tundra
#

WT can also hit diamond at 2 sometimes

#

got one myself not too long ago today

brittle summit
#

:image.jpg:

shadow bolt
#

do you get last point at level 58 or 60?

toxic bane
wheat plover
#

I JUST GOT A ALBINO RED DEER

#

LETTS GOOOOOOOOO

#

now all i need is a nice stag to get it in a multi mount with

brittle summit
#

i got a lvl 9 with a mela hind

shadow bolt
#

is Zeroing perk rly worth it?

brittle summit
#

very

shadow bolt
#

hmm ive heard it adds some artificial bullet drop

#

i mean im using it all the time so i dont have comparision

#

thats why im asking

toxic bane
#

well the perk doesn't add any drop

#

the game's ballistics work pretty much regardless of that

brittle summit
#

what's the tallest map

toxic bane
#

what the perk does is allow you to zero your crosshair to different ranges

brittle summit
#

75m
150m
300m

#

for most rifles

#

25m
50m
75m

#

for handguns

#

same with shotguns

#

20m
40m
60m

#

for bows

shadow bolt
#

yep, im using it all the time @brittle summit

brittle summit
#

10m
30m
50m
for crossbow

shadow bolt
#

just wondering if it was worth and of it makes a lot of difference

toxic bane
#

both at longer and shorter ranges

shadow bolt
#

hmm maybe i whould take only 1/2 instead 2/2, havent tried using scope with better zoom to make 300m shots

brittle summit
#

tbh just grab the 7mm

#

its accurate as hell

#

and flat shooting

#

dont need to aim too high when going for a 300m shot

shadow bolt
#

gonna check those long shots on shooting range then

#

hows the penetration with 7mm on that range tho?

hidden basin
#

Tho tbh using 7mm on elk and moose is a bit of a mistake unless you have no other choice

shadow bolt
#

hmm even on 150, doing 250 shots seems quite accurate, i think ill drop long shot then and just use short and normal

wheat plover
#

BRO

#

WHAT IS MY LUCK

brittle summit
#

lick

ocean token
#

*licks *

brittle summit
wheat plover
#

#

Full screen

wheat plover
#

ooooooh

#

now i understand

#

bc i can get it from xbox app

ocean token
#

🤦‍♂️

wheat plover
#

ik i can be dumb sometimes

ocean token
#

Yep

brittle summit
#

i got a piebald diamond axis
as my 2nd diamond ever

wheat plover
#

i’ve never got a diamond

brittle summit
#

oof

#

you'll get it one day

ocean token
#

The antlers dont look too similar

wheat plover
#

wdym

#

they are the exact same

#

i think the right one is a bit taller but that’s it

#

there’s the albino red deer i got like a hour and a half ago

#

on my map

#

not multiplayer

wheat plover
#

this is the multi mount with my only male red deer with horns and the albino female i want to get a bigger male like a 8 or a diamond

#

and can level 8 red deer with the big racks make diamond

brittle summit
#

no

shadow bolt
#

guys do you use "Like a pro" perk a lot? Ive seen videos of this perk and it looks kinda awkward to use

pine ore
#

I don’t

uncut solstice
#

i got the 7mm rifle and im wondering at what range does the accuracy start to get bad

ocean token
#

Never really

uncut solstice
#

cool, thanks!

toxic bane
#

You're either already hidden well enough while crouched to not need to take a prone shot, or your target is close enough you can crouch up and shoot before it flees

#

Or, you have a crossbow, which let's you shoot from prone without sacrificing your aim

onyx plinth
#

With improvised blind, like a pro is rarely required

marsh locust
#

What level does a turkey have to be for it to be diamond?

tranquil tundra
#

usually 3

#

rarely 2

marsh locust
#

thank you 😁

tranquil tundra
#

NP

marsh locust
#

also i got my first diamond today!!!

tranquil tundra
#

Nice

level 5 pronghorn

then stumbled upon a lvl 5 mule deer

#

with a HUGE

#

rack

last hemlock
#

Guys

#

I’ll gift nitro to whoever answer my question with 109% facts

tranquil tundra
#

I got a lvl-2 whitetail that managed to make diamond, a melanistic whitetail, and then a piebald mule doe, all today

last hemlock
#

Lyra

tranquil tundra
#

?

last hemlock
#

Can u answer something important

tranquil tundra
#

Depends on what it is

last hemlock
#

Ok so

#

what will happen if Pinocchio says his nose will grow now

tranquil tundra
#

well that's a paradoxical one

last hemlock
#

My life is a lie😭

frozen drum
#

this is called the pinocchio paradox

last hemlock
#

Ok so another question why is the pizza box a square but the pizza is a circle and the slice is a triangle

tranquil tundra
#

whoever invented pizza really liked geometry

uncut solstice
#

slices dont always have to be triangles, they can also be squares

tranquil tundra
uncut solstice
#

and pizzas are sometimes squares aswell

frozen drum
#

box being a square allows for easy access to the circular shape of the triangular slice of pizza

#

🙂

last hemlock
#

To general chat I go

uncut solstice
#

what are the landmarks for?

hidden basin
uncut solstice
#

okay, thanks

last hemlock
jagged thunder
#

is poly tip always better than soft?

hidden basin
#

yes

fallow cairn
#

Yes. With the current scoring system you need a vital hit and quick kill doesn’t matter so poly is always better

jagged thunder
#

then why does soft exist lol

hidden basin
#

on the old scoring system, soft points could sometimes be beneficial

fallow cairn
#

Well because they are a common type of ammunition. Plus the old scoring system they were useful

last hemlock
thick marsh
#

How did the old scoring system differ from this current one?

fallow cairn
#

It was a score up to 1000 and quick kill and consecutive harvests factored in

fierce wave
#

How many animals can you kill with a bow in one spot before it ruins a need zone?

fallow cairn
#

15

fierce wave
#

Thanky

fallow cairn
#

I would keep it to 8 or 9 though. I’ve had some zones delete from 3x hunting pressure and there were still animals in said herd 🤷🏽‍♂️

jagged thunder
#

thinking of saving for the 7mm regent magnum as my upgrade from the default, any objections?

hidden basin
#

A very solid investment

jagged thunder
#

then scope after

fallow cairn
#

Hyperion scope should be first investment then 7mm IMO

fallow cairn
last hemlock
#

how do i take my scope off quickly like flinter

onyx plinth
#

Middle mouse button

last hemlock
#

ok

thick marsh
#

With ps4 double click up and then x

last hemlock
#

tanks im pc

#

i had same problem with wolves attacking me and defending myself with a scoped gun is real hard

#

so thank

obsidian vessel
#

which map should i use to earn money quick (just started playing this game yesterday btw)

obsidian vessel
toxic bane
#

Only map dlc, no equipment DLCs?

obsidian vessel
toxic bane
#

Alrighty

#

Well, I'd then suggest starting at Layton and doing story missions

#

They give a good bit of info on how to play, particularly Layton, and allow you to gain decent cash and xp quickly

#

Other than that, killing as many animals as you can (properly ofc) is usually a good way to get money and xp quick

#

The absolute best way to make cash on PC rn I would say is goose hunting, but there's a couple equipment DLC you need to make it viable and efficient

obsidian vessel
#

which dlcs

tranquil tundra
#

Weapon Pack 1

#

you'll need that .22 rifle for ducks and rabbits

toxic bane
#

The goose DLC, for decoys and blinds
Any one DLC that includes a shotgun with birdshot you don't need to level up shotguns for, or a pack with a 22LR weapon
Tents and Tripods, to make your life easier

tranquil tundra
#

Rancho does come with a shotgun but it's slightly bugged rn

toxic bane
#

And from what I've been told you can't unlock its birdshot straight away,

tranquil tundra
#

...I'm tempted to check that myself but I'm trying to GO grind rn

#

welp I can always move the file and then put it back

toxic bane
#

Was about to say~

obsidian vessel
#

hm

#

well thanks for the info ill try it

tranquil tundra
#

No score requirement on 16ga birdshot.

toxic bane
#

Huh, well then

#

Actually hm

#

Do you think that is because of the drilling rifle being a thing?

tranquil tundra
#

More than likely, yes

toxic bane
#

Hey @obsidian vessel, could you do us a favor and check if you can buy 16ga birdshot on the shop?

#

Don't have to buy it, just check

obsidian vessel
#

oh im not on pc right now

toxic bane
#

D'oh, no worries~

obsidian vessel
#

i can tell later when i get on pc if you want

toxic bane
#

Sure thing~

tranquil tundra
#

you can also start in whichever map you want, technically

#

all have tutorial messages

#

though I'd strongly advise against any of the maps named in the recent article in #693063835828879440

obsidian vessel
#

yeah i know but i just wanted to know most efficient way to make money

tranquil tundra
#

oh in that case

#

Hirschfelden.

#

Geese = big money

#

though you'd need birdshot for those things

toxic bane
#

They only have map DLCs tho

tranquil tundra
#

and once they get something with birdshot, geese is how to get money.

toxic bane
#

No decoys tho

tranquil tundra
#

ah

toxic bane
#

But yes

slate sequoia
#

Guys does medved have an audio glitch?

toxic bane

Ok

#

hello my game always crashes when loading so that I can't play anymore. I had this problem two weeks before uptate already. after the uptate I was able to play again but now it crashes again.

shell raptor
#

do types of goose decoy actually matter (sentry/searching/feeding)? and does the semi-realistic placement pattern matter?

brittle summit
#

no and no

#

anything works

shell raptor
#

cool, thanks

heady canyon
#

does the scent eliminator work

brittle summit
#

not well-

heady canyon
#

everytime i use it the animals just keep giving warning calls anyhway

hidden basin
#

Maybe stop sprinting towards them

#

Or stop sprinting when you get closer

heady canyon
#

im crouchwalking.......

onyx plinth
#

the scent eliminator works up to certain distance

heady canyon
#

from 150m away...

onyx plinth
#

for me it's like around 60m before they bolted

heady canyon
#

the coyote was 90m away :(

onyx plinth
#

but some animal are more sensitive to smell

#

yea coyote is like detector machine xD

heady canyon
#

i need coyotes for my mission 😭

#

it's so hard to find one

#

and this one just poofed

onyx plinth
#

i just keep caller with me

#

when they do the warning thing, use caller like 3x while crouching or prone

heady canyon
#

omg this coyote literally walked to my face and did a warning call

#

that's 1 out of 2 💀

#

and the feed zone literally disappeared

#

also how rare are male blacktail deers

#

they're literally impossible for me to find...

onyx plinth
heady canyon
#

i've only encountered 35 females and 1 male so far

#

:(

#

i can't be that unlucky can i

onyx plinth
#

yea in the herd usually there are like 5 doe and 1 male

heady canyon
#

the thing is i don't even encounter herds i just encounter single does

#

i haven't seen a single herd of blacktails on layton....

void cosmos
#

my cotw wont start when i have my ps4 controller plugged in 😦

onyx plinth
heady canyon
#

roonachee's on the left no?

thick marsh
#

When I'm hunting foxes or coyotes I go into a bush or tree when I'm "invinsible". Then I just use the caller and eventually they come. I also use the cent eliminator and I have all the skill on those visibility skills. They can come like 10m from me

#

How ever on that close aster few seconds they realize me

heady canyon
#

im level 12 😭

#

i have like level 1 soft feet

thick marsh
#

Oh yeah :D but the bush is good place

heady canyon
#

got my 2nd coyote tho

#

was looking for blacktails and somehow all the coyotes come out after like 3 days of trying to hunt them

#

💀

onyx plinth
#

i mean left

#

i am really dumb with direction

thick marsh
#

Hunting coyotes requires patience

#

But they are relatively easy to hunt when you just have nerves for waiting :D

onyx plinth
#

try to look for their hotspots and timing

#

after that it's matter of discovering need points and patience

#

ngl it's such an ass to hunt

thick marsh
#

Yeah. The money is good but hunting is so slow that it's not worth it

tranquil tundra
#

Anything good at that little lake up there?

brittle summit
#

at drink time

tranquil tundra
#

👌🏼

#

I want to get a dilute mulie at some point so I'll have to get up there

#

Is there any difference in difficulty getting a GO on different maps?

analog grail
#

Yea

#

Rancho is easier

hidden basin
#

Theoretically no. But people have found Rancho to be a lot easier than Layton due to its terrain, vegetation (or lack of), and for some reason herd sizes

slate sequoia
#

ok

what is water buffalo max weight

Why did a 22 shot make the mocha moose flee?

#

It was 15 meters away from it

#

And it was calm

#

Well i took a pic

#

Was I supposed to shoot it?

sour basin
slate sequoia
fierce wave
fierce wave
#

But reports have showed and seen that it still exists on your map one day you might come across it and get to kill it

#

I thought you could take a picture of it and then shoot it I was wrong so I'm hoping I come across it one day because I really really wanted that moose

ocean token
#

Ik but it wouldve gone alert than fleeing immediately

fierce wave
#

Mine hauled ass immediately after I took the photo

ocean token
#

Same lol

toxic bane
#

i just shot it

#

better story

fierce wave
#

So I chased it up the mountain through the woods for 5 mins following its call because the damn thing didn't leave tracks and when I was about to have a shot it went off the side of the hill and I lost it

toxic bane
#

y'all tried to double dip and look what happened

#

hubris

slate sequoia
#

What is the best time for wolves in yukon

fierce wave
#

Hay I thought she sayed take pic then shoot

fierce wave
slate sequoia
fierce wave
#

Sure

#

Any time between 7 and 19 walk around the burned Forest looking for tracks is what I do and then I follow the tracks and looking and keeping an eye out for the pack

#

You might have a better chance starting around 8:00 or 9:00 and you could possibly find the tracks from them moving that night better

#

But they usually change rest zones about halfway through so 12 I say is also a good time

slate sequoia
#

ok ill do 8

fierce wave
#

Just always be on your toes and listen because the little fuckers will somehow be behind you and attack you every once in awhile

#

Do you have the bloodhound?

slate sequoia
#

yes

fierce wave

Pay attention to when he starts growing because that means there is predatory animals nearby

ok

#

thanks

fierce wave
#

It has saved me more than once on being snuck up on

slate sequoia
#

i like when theyre aggro but not if they all attack me at once

fierce wave
#

Yes when there is like three or four all after you at once it is not fun at all

#

What's your weapons of choice?

slate sequoia
slate sequoia
fierce wave
#

Ayy same it with the soft points is what I use

slate sequoia
fierce wave
#

They drop instantly with double lung correct?

slate sequoia

yeah

Hmm might switch to that

slate sequoia

#

Also the large lake on the left side of the map that is connected to the burned force that has The Outpost right on it the watchtower that is south of that Outpost just in the red fields I have gotten on top of it and looking around and found two or three packs resting before I can't remember the name of the outpost/watchtower

slate sequoia
#

ok ill go there after ive went through burned

fierce wave
#

Just be careful because walking to the watchtower can be dangerous I died one time hunting with someone I attempted to kill a wolf with a 44 and failed lol one of the few times I've actually died by an animal

fierce wave
#

Brightside is I'm guessing you're hunting on PC so with the update fixing the render glitch you don't have to worry about dying and losing animals you've killed

fierce wave
#

Should be set I also recommend possibly bringing the distressed fawn call in case you're in more denser vegetation areas you might be able to call them in to open areas

#

I think the jackrabbit one also works can't remember tho

guys any bow/crossbow recommendations for each - small/medium/big game ?

hidden basin

Yup. Pretty much all down to preference unless you're shooting in strong winds. Then the crossbow is the clear winner

What level does a moose have to be for it to be diamond potential?

tranquil tundra

usually 5

#

they can make it at 4, but it's rare

marsh locust

Alright

#

I got a diamond pronghorn and mule deer yesterday hehe

#

Both lvl 5

tranquil tundra
#

yeah most things max at 5

marsh locust
#

9 is the max for a mountain lion right?

#

Same for puma?

tranquil tundra
#

all predators max at 9

marsh locust
#

Except the great one

tranquil tundra
#

red deer, cape buffalo, and water buffalo also reach 9

#

though out of all those ones, only water buffalo can hit diamond at 8

Is there a pronghorn caller?

Hey guys need help cotw won’t run on my Pc everything is updated and I have reinstalled 3 times and it still won’t run I hit start in steam and I dosnt open or anything

uncut solstice
#

reinstall steam

nimble verge
#

If I do that will I have to install all my games again?

uncut solstice
#

yeah

tranquil tundra
#

yeah that def sounds like a Steam problem

#

but if that doesn't work, it's probably your computer

uncut solstice
#

verify the integrity of your game files

nimble verge
#

Yeah already down verify integrity and double checked all drivers and everything are updated..I hit play in steam and it looks like it start then it does nothing and play button pops back up again

uncut solstice
#

yeah that happened to me with a different game a while back, i uninstalled steam and reinstalled it and it worked

nimble verge
#

I completely uninstalled steam and reinstalled it and reinstalled cotw and it’s still not running its doing the same thing

pine ore
#

Have you ran the program as administrator

nimble verge
#

How do I do that?

#

It used to run when I had a crappy gpu but was that laggy I didn’t play…ive now upgraded gpu and reinstalled cotw and it won’t run

#

This is all I get when trying to run as administrator and I’ve uninstalled/reinstalled and get the same thing

pine ore
# nimble verge

I will post a video dms of how to fix it, It is late for me and I am very lazy lol

nimble verge
#

@pine ore thanks

pine ore
#

No problem

#

If it doesn't work then I don't know what else to do

nimble verge
#

It worked like a dream👌

i think ghose and ducks r broken

viral moat
#

They don't come to my decoys anymore at all. Geese just don't respawn until you clear their hunting pressure.

last hemlock
#

yeah thats annoying

#

i cant clear my hunting pressure idk how to

viral moat
#

Kill other animals on the map in various spots until all of the pressure has went away. Using a tripod or concealment equipment will help tremendously

Where to seek for red deer in hirschfelden ?

#

i was calling like crazy next to few lakes but nothing

opal mango
#

Ok question. I shoot a bird with my revolver and it disappears. Completely gone cannot find it, what is the problem. I just shot a bird in a open field with my revolver, saw where it went down, and its not there. Has happened to me before. I was ontop of a lookout point, a bird came flying by close and so i shot it with my revolver. It dropped down near some trees but i couldnt find it. Is this some glitch or am i just bad at finding my bird kills?

last hemlock
#

@opal mango are you on console?

#

If yes the render distance makes animals dissapear

opal mango
#

yes

opal mango
#

just shot another, saw where it went down, no trace of it

last hemlock
#

Well then idk

opal mango
#

here hold on

#

ill do it again and ill clip it

#

well shiet, out of ammo. Whatever, im probably just not looking hard enough

ok yeah, I placed a marker exactly where the bird is, nothing there

heady canyon
#

is the .7mm regent the gun with only 1 bullet per magazine?

tranquil tundra
#

Yes

#

the .338 also only has one bullet

heady canyon
#

oo....

#

i was planning to get the .7mm for shooting but i guess i'll just wait for the .300....

toxic bane
#

remember 7mm is 4-9 while .300 only does 7-9

#

which makes the .300 way better for those bigger games, but still

heady canyon
#

yee but i have the .243 for 2-6 anyway

#

maybe getting the .7mm will be worth it still because of the extra 4k rifle score that i need..

#

might as well get the proper ammo types for moose and bear

toxic bane
#

7mm will be leagues easier to use than the .243 on 4s and higher

#

specially the big class 6 deer

heady canyon
#

ok i'll get the .7mm then

#

just wondering, how long does it take for the .7mm to reload?

toxic bane
#

hecc

#

like 2 seconds?

#

with full reload speed perks

heady canyon
#

relatively fast or extremely slow (muzzleloader speed)

toxic bane
#

oh no, nothing is as slow as the muzzleloader~

#

it's fairly quick

heady canyon
#

ok ty~

#

i'll go farm up some more rifle score to buy the polymer tips

toxic bane
#

yish

hidden basin
toxic bane
#

that means your game is saving~

fierce wave
heady canyon
#

need 2 more kills for polymer bullets x.x

fierce wave
#

Oh boy

#

Once you get polymer tips you can relatively easily hunt water buffalo cape buffalo and bison with it you normally will only get a single long shot but it usually takes only about 75 yards of running for it to die which is not much off from the 300 which normally takes about 50 to 75 yards to die with a single long shot

#

And imo teamed up with the Hyperion scope it is very very accurate all the way out to render and you will drop deer with a single shot at render with it with polymer tips pretty much it still gets most of the time a double long shot

Hey there, I am Youp an 17 year old guy from The Netherlands.

I’ve downloaded this awesome game yesterday on my PlayStation 4.
It sadly keeps crashing whenever I try to hop on.
I’ve already tried re-installing it a few times but it still keeps crashing.

So I did not to get to play the game yet but I’d really want to start playing, haha.

Tips are welcome! :puppylove:

not sure how to fix it

Just wait. It'll trigger after a while.

it just did after i changed graphics setting to try to get a better framerate in the casa grande

tulip holly
#

ah i see

ashen prawn
#

@heady canyon im old time the hunter player... My first bought rifle after .243 was 7mm and those 2 are quite a pair. 7mm is only a single bullet rifle but reload is pretty fast. .300 is the best heavy prey rifle but 7mm has the higher spectre of animal you can hunt. From the wild boar and F-deer, R-deer to the bison. I agree that in this day and age .270 rifle is not worthy but 7mm is a worthy rifle you can gain plenty of levels and money with.

fierce wave
#

Yeah it's my main rifle

#

Got 520 some odd kills with it

hidden basin
#

7mm is a solid investment

ashen prawn
#

it really is.... i still dont know what would be the perfect pair for my Mosin

spring girder
#

Depends on the map.

keen stratus
#

rancho del arroyo seems to be really hard for my system to deal with most other maps i get decent framerates for my system

#

im getting lots of stuttering

#

hirch has some stuttering, but not as bad as rancho

toxic bane
#

assuming you don't care for lv2

ashen prawn
#

usually only low calibre i have with me are the blue arrows

brittle summit
#

should i buy another game to satisfy my boredom when WT grinding, or get 2 months of nitro

ashen prawn
#

basically i love to have 2 rifles with me and a bow

spring girder
toxic bane
ashen prawn
#

i cant because i have lost that rifle when i went to the legal side

spring girder
#

You did the what?

toxic bane
#

well, then the loadout should be bow, and whatever you can't easily get with bows

#

which depends on the map

ashen prawn
#

i was the bad guy for 5 years but this summer i have seen the light

spring girder
#

I mean. Yukon is a solid investment, just for the gun alone, and the map is pretty fun too so not a bad purchase.

ashen prawn
#

@toxic bane i love Mosin as my base rifle

toxic bane
#

give me a map and I'll give you a loadout that complements having a bow as your primary

ashen prawn
#

@spring girder i have all maps beyond last one at very high level

#

i know all maps

#

its just i went legal and only have Basic 2 maps + my fav Medved taiga

toxic bane
#

well you can still jump onto any map in multiplayer

#

so~

#

but let's see

ashen prawn
#

well for super duper animals i still have basic .383 (forgot the real number)

spring girder
#

If you don't have the .300 you can just go with either the 7mm or the .338.

ashen prawn
#

which i use

ashen prawn
#

lets just say i have made my own pack with the weapon packs + dog + medved taiga... i have the shotgun from russian map but i dont use shotguns much

ashen prawn
#

wp 1, 2, 3

#

DLC

toxic bane
#

ah, so no garand

#

gudgud

#

Layton:

  • Bow should cover everything but mallards, since those are tougher to get in the middle of the water (unless you're really good)
  • .243 mostly for coyotes, as an opportunity kill or if you'd rather not do the whole spot n stalk for them specifically
  • Mosin for up to bears (assuming elk and moose are more than ok with bow)
    Can replace .243 with .22LR for specifically duck hunting
ashen prawn
#

mosin is 243 + 270

brittle summit
#

minus the class 2

ashen prawn
#

Only ducks i have hunted were the ones from the missions

#

not a single duck or rabbit or fox i hunted for fun

brittle summit
#

any peccary spots? (drink time)

toxic bane
#

Hirsch:

  • Bow, again, for everything you can reliably kill with the bow
  • .243 for foxes, same reason as coyotes on Layton
  • Mosin can kill up to red deer, but if you're hunting specifically euro bison consider replacing either this or the .243 with a .338
ashen prawn
#

@toxic bane by the way my fav maps in the game (from all of them) is Hirschfelden and Medved

#

I like the german map because its the same kind of scenery I have in continental Croatia

brittle summit
#

red deer spots on hirch?

ashen prawn
#

I hunt both bisons and reds in south west

#

around the water

toxic bane
#

Medved:

  • I really like the arctic camo crossbow on medved, but that's personal preference
  • .243 for musk deer
  • Mosin will cover everything except for musk deer and moose
spring girder
ashen prawn
#

For me it was so funny when people asked me what is the end game "enemy" on Medved... I had to laugh.

toxic bane
#

you mean albeeno?

#

albeeno is a qt

ashen prawn
#

when you have Medved in the name and on the map sign

#

@spring girder i also like medved because some winters are like that (not last years, but before they were)

#

I have never liked the snow and cold but that map is great for its vibe

brittle summit
#

its close enough

ashen prawn
#

Hirchfelden is central europe

#

any country out there

peccary drink spots?

Some maps are a bit similar vibes... Like all of the north/south american maps

Rancho is pretty unique

ashen prawn
#

Rancho is the mexican ?

and arguably Yukon compared to the rest of american maps

Yucon had nice colors and interesting red vs white scenery

brittle summit

or the map

spring girder
#

Also the dynamic snow weather effect is pretty neat.

ashen prawn
#

snow in medved is always a screenshot worthy

#

Sorry - this whole game was always the best for screenshots

#

People always think its real

#

Agreed. It's still beautiful even after all these years.

did they flee at him

or went aggressive

agressive

#

active stalked and attacked him

lean lintel

Sometimes they flee straight at you

Or go around in circles like a ballerina

he says "they do a kinda lunge and just hit u" then keep going

like a lion, but the lion turns around

I got side swiped by a lion so hard that my character went from first person to third person and was t-posing

I've only seen one flock and I let them pass

$900 on average per goose, flocks of about 6-8 members, and after the Rancho patch they come in frequently

Isn't the Couso just a delight

#

Even with the little bug it has

its become a reflex action at this point

also 40 K credits is about my average for a day of geese hunting

About 40 birds, not bad~

#

And hey, it might not be your thing, but give manual chambering a try

keen stratus
#

nah, hate that on rifles, don't mind so much on the shotgun, i kind of expect it

It makes it so you have to tap R to chamber rounds
