[regal moat]

these settings are ALWAYS reverted to default

can this finally be fixed?

it's been years since I have this "bug"

[toxic bane]

it's a feature actually~

it's not that they're reset to default

every map has its own individual setting for this

[regal moat]

-_-

even in the same reserve, it resets to default 😛

[coral finch]

stop your whinin klinsk and change the dame setting 🔨

😆

[regal moat]

NO U

😭

[warm arch]

Does anyone understand the new patchnotes? Especially the fur types they mentioned?

[toxic bane]

if it's from the same map, that does seem like a bug

but can't say I've had it myself

[regal moat]

maybe it also resets when multiplaying in the same map 🤔

oh wow, they changed the UI

now you have this white block when interacting with stuff instead of this orange [E]

how do you disable the black border around text?

it seems like this update changed everything

[true vessel]

Why my game crash everytime i try to go on Mississippi Acres Preserve?

[regal moat]

my game crashes in Yukon

[tender thorn]

i get this erroe @regal moat everytime i play, then it errors out sending the report

[regal moat]

I very rarely have a crash

[twin latch]

I buyed me this duck DLC and i tryed it out, i never get any ducks, im standing there 30min and doing sounds with the duck deluxe thing but never the ducks fly to me

what im doing wrong?

[teal lance]

ducks are bugged afaik

[twin latch]

okay

How do i fast get the Rhino 454 pistol?

[tired minnow]

I recently bought the game and was wondering what dlc's you guys would recommend me getting and is it worth it to just wait untill christmas when there might be a sale?

[teal lance]

atv, tents, bloodhound, weapon pack 2, and savanna DLCs are what I am using

I also recommend Yukon

[tired minnow]

alright, do you think its worth it to wait for christmas if theres a sale or should i just get it now

[teal lance]

savanna maybe too harsh without tripods tho

[teal lance]

I mean, it depends on you. you may get at least atv and tents now which I think are important

and you can play on any map you like by just joining multiplayer

[tired minnow]

yeah

[teal lance]

I think tents are most essential in the game

but I am pretty noob myself lol

[tired minnow]

yeah tents is probably the first thing imma get

[teal lance]

yeah they are great

[spark goblet]

unplug ur keyboard when starting it

it might work

Thats what I do to start my game and it works

[regal moat]

lol

[velvet shore]

So like, how do you sign in to Apex Connect in game? Theres only an option to create an account, but I did that in browser while waiting for the game to patch.

Also, what is a limited account?

[last hemlock]

Is there like a video or a picture to help me know what perks to get?

[regal moat]

where do you get a ground blind?

[marble storm]

is there a way to look at the pics taken on the camera?

[tranquil tundra]

On what platform?

[marble storm]

xbox

[analog grail]

U cant

Only pc saves the photos taken from the camera

[marble storm]

ok

thanks

[velvet shore]

So... no way to sign in to Apex Connect then?

[analog grail]

U can

[velvet shore]

Nope. only options are to Create Account or Skip.

[glossy spear]

U can

!apex

Okay, no idea what that command was, but you can just sign in when you are in create account, just use your information that you used to make your account and it should be good.

[steady pebble]

Can someone help me out with what I'm supposed to do on the Mississippi acres mission "breaking and entering" - I've inspected the bunch of flowers and read the label/card that's attached to them, the game tells me I've finished that task and the new mission "breaking and entering" tells me to retrace my steps and look for evidence yet the flowers remain highlighted on the table..?

[glossy spear]

@velvet shore This worked for me 😉

[velvet shore]

well, that worked. wouldn't have expected that to work haha. you'd assume it would say something like 'an account with those details already exist'. cheers!

[glossy spear]

Glad it worked <3!

[tranquil tundra]

any tips on finding gator need zones? I've been walking along the river for a while now and finding zilch

[coral finch]

there's one on the south outpost which I believe is the first outpost you discover

[tranquil tundra]

yep I literally just found that zone

[coral finch]

did you kill one? how many shots and what bullet did you use?

cause my main mission is bugged out but I might be able to fix it if I kill a gator

[tranquil tundra]

.50, used the minie ball

[opaque yoke]

anyone know what the new black box is for on your hud?

[coral finch]

how to fix this mississipi mission, something wicked this way comes

[sly oracle]

What time do whitetail drink on new map

[fair crane]

8-11

[steady pebble]

What bit are you stuck on?

[tranquil tundra]

Tried flipping the map over while investigating it?

[coral finch]

map?

[coral finch]

I investigated the note then nothing happened

[fair crane]

turn it around

[steady pebble]

Go to the codex - mission items - then select the note at the bottom of the list. Click on "inspect item" and use your mouse (or controller joystick if on ps/xbox) to rotate the note so you can see the map on the reverse side

[coral finch]

thank you

[steady pebble]

You're welcome 👍

[sly oracle]

Ty

[coral finch]

any tips on hunting down gators?

[last hemlock]

wjhy wont tracks glow?

[coral finch]

idk the blood is bugged for me as well on new map

[coral finch]

if you own it, use the dog to find direction

[vivid rivet]

is the mosin bad? 15 pin seems meh

[steady pebble]

The most effective technique I found is to look for resting gators - ones that are walking/swimming back and forth in a set loop. I don't know if it's a bug or not but you can literally walk right up to them and they ignore you. Just don't get in their path or you'll receive a small amount of damage, even if they just brush past you. Walk up to the gator and put a slug in its skull. A 20 gauge will instantly kill. If you don't kill first time, try again. You're allowed two shots to receive full integrity and only one needs to hit a vital organ, I.e. the brain

[hushed yew]

Got a questions for you boys. I've got some cash from hunting now and I'm wondering what rifle I should buy. I've got the 7mm and 30-30 now and I need something for fast shooting? Any tips on what I should buy for an all-round weapon for almost every class of animal?

[ebon vale]

I've enjoyed using M1 or 6.5mm a lot recently. Semi-auto, decent recoil, good range.

[hidden basin]

m1 is gud for 4-8

[ebon vale]

For sure, just been wanting to try to use something else because everyone is like USE M1!!!

[hushed yew]

I dont own any dlcs yet but im tempted to buy

[ebon vale]

I would check ingame, but it's gonna be updating for a while.

[hushed yew]

Is the 40-75 rifle good?

Looked like it could hit almost every type

[fair crane]

it is good

[hidden basin]

short range but it works well within that range

[hushed yew]

Alright, thanks for the advice!

[fair crane]

not really short range, more medium since it is easy to use at 250 meters and under

[high sandal]

Was there a place in Missisippi that the game crashed if you go there? Where is it in that case?

[fair crane]

I’ve crashed all over the place

[twilit marsh]

any new achievements with this patch? side missions on new map?

[tranquil tundra]

Nope

[agile skiff]

my game chrasesh when i'm trying to play new map

[tranquil tundra]

to both

[twilit marsh]

damn... thats one of most fun parts of game ;/

[tranquil tundra]

Sadly a lot of people would disagree with you on that

[hidden basin]

the "no side missions" has been a thing since SRP

i figure that EW noticed that not many people did side missions at all, so they decided it wasn't worth the time and effort it would take to make them

[twilit marsh]

i can understand that. if they give some weapon skins or new camo for them . that would help alot 🙂 but yeah... its how it is 🙂 run and gun 😄

[lean lintel]

Side missions are awesome and no one can tell me otherwise

[hidden basin]

will not disagree

[agile skiff]

Help me i cant play on new map

[mystic kite]

The new map.doesnt even show up in the Microsoft store to download just says something went wrong

[fair crane]

they aren’t awesome… they’re VERY awesome

[late hearth]

They give you more money

[lean lintel]

You had me scared

[fair crane]

😂

[vapid anvil]

Was the steam/epic games crossplay on DLC maps fixed?

[hidden basin]

no

[vapid anvil]

Rip

[hidden basin]

that's a backend issue btw

they can fix it without an actual game update afaik

[vapid anvil]

i know I was just wondering because today was major update day

[fierce wave]

They ain't awesome there absolutely amazing greatness and amazing when bored of normal hunting

[hidden basin]

what's good tho is since they dont have to deal with certification, they can release the fix as soon as it is ready

[vapid anvil]

Just a matter of time

[hidden basin]

certification for consoles specifically tends to be a long and drawn out process

i think that's partly why you see less frequent but larger updates for this game

[vapid anvil]

Algorithm

[hidden basin]

wut

[strong bear]

what fake sound should i use for black beer?

[vapid anvil]

They are following a algorithm, frequent updates aren’t the best, one large update every so often hypes the community increases revenue and gameplay

[hidden basin]

caller?
predator fawn caller

[hidden basin]

more like frequent updates aren't as practical due to how long certification on consoles takes

[strong bear]

what button?

on pc

[vapid anvil]

I guess

[hidden basin]

equip it in your inventory, equip it in one of your ten hotkey slots, then pull it out and press the left mouse button to use it

[strong bear]

whats the name of the caller?

[hidden basin]

Predator "distressed fawn" caller

[strong bear]

ok

[last hemlock]

Is 7mm good and what are it good for?

[steady pebble]

Anyone done the "breaking and entering " mission on Mississippi acres yet? I can't figure out what I'm supposed to do... confused

[fair crane]

everything it is ethical for it is good for

[hidden basin]

class 4-9. it's a versatile single-shot rifle that will serve you well

[last hemlock]

Is it good for alligators?

[fair crane]

yes

[hidden basin]

gators are class 6

so yes

[last hemlock]

Okay

[twilit marsh]

what happened with goose? seen like 6 post's about goose not spawning.

[hidden basin]

it's kind of a "jack of all trades but master of none" kind of weapon.
m1 and .303 do class 4-6 better than it, .300 and 338 do class 7-9 better than it, but the 7mm covers both class ranges with one rifle

[fair crane]

…

[lone dawn]

Going good with at least the missions so far

But I'm only on 3 and 4 so that's not saying a lot yet lol

[fair crane]

More shots doesn’t equal better, and it is pretty good on 7-9, but that depends on your abilities. ‘Better’ and ‘Best’ is such a misused word in this community and I hate that.

[last hemlock]

anyone have good spots for alligator hunt

[hidden basin]

imo there are "best" weapons for certain animals, but there is not a "best" overall. and even then some players may feel certain trade-offs are worth it

[lean lintel]

^

[fair crane]

I don’t think there is any ‘Best’ weapons for certain animals, maybe very very few but I can’t think of any animals that has a best weapon, only weapon types. All weapons are equally good in my opinion, it all depends on the player that handles that weapon and the player’s preference, ability and play style.

[hidden basin]

like, i main the 6.5 cuz of its low weight and flat shooting

[lean lintel]

good sir the 300 is the best and I will die on this hill

and the M1

and the .22

and the eckers, I like that one

[fair crane]

I don’t have a main weapon, I just kinda switch between most of them. That .270 Warden might change things though, if it ever comes out on consoles

[lean lintel]

I do too, some days I am in the mood to go with the good ole’ M1 and some days I want the 7mm

Depends on my mood

[fair crane]

sometimes I want to hunt with whatever weapons I want, other times I just want to hunt with base game weapons, they do something special for me

[opaque yoke]

anyone else have there game crash when trying to travel from Joneville lodge to tupilo flats lodge? I cant open it because everytime I get half way there it crashes

[daring knot]

I feel the 6.5 doesn’t have a lot of stopping power so I go for the eckers but I will agree the 6.5 is fairly flat shooting

[agile skiff]

ok sended

now just need to wait

[tranquil tundra]

9-12 is one of them

[fathom swift]

I have it at 9.45 and the gators are all still in the water? 🤔

[limpid tendon]

Can someone please tell me where Camp Haven Bunks are on the Mississippi map? I forgot which roadway its on LOL

[regal moat]

goddammit, I'm using the wrong shotgun for bison 😂

I was wondering why I didn't go higher than Silver

[cyan comet]

How can i find animals faster? it seems like i can only find them in rest zones, or i have to creep up on them for 20 minutes with tracking

[trail pulsar]

@cyan comet
Try hunting around lakes, rivers, or pretty much anywhere near water.
All animals come there for drink times and a lot of their rest and feed zones are not that far away.

[cyan comet]

Do animals only go to drink/rest during the specific zone times?

or do they do it randomely with the addition of zones

[trail pulsar]

They only feed/drink/rest during zone times.
Rest of the time they travel from one to the other.

[frigid lily]

tips where i could find level 4 difficulty Fallow deers? trying to complete the Gold Score on fallow deer mission

[trail pulsar]

@frigid lily Your animal population is unique to your map.
Even If I would know exact locations of 4s and 5s on my map, they wouldn't bei on yours.
Can name you some good spots, where usually lots of fallow are, If you'd like.
Which map? Hirsch or Te?

[sour ledge]

for the life of me I don't understand teh gators' houdini AI. Do they eventually resurface in the spot they completely disappear in (in the water)? Or is it just gone until it decides to reappear at some random spot at the map?

[frigid lily]

Hirsch @trail pulsar

[vital night]

anyone on here a shotgun hunter in game?

[trail pulsar]

Try those three lakes and that part of the river during drink time and you should be good.

[cyan comet]

are there still ways to instakill every animal

obv not throacic spine anymore tho

i cant spell it sorry

[trail pulsar]

Heart and neck.
**Brain, but you will most likely damage the trophy.

[limpid tendon]

just a repost to see if anyone will answer...... 🤞

[arctic hedge]

What’s the procent od albino on all animals in the lake and the procent for diamond

[tranquil tundra]

That is a question no one's allowed to answer as per Rule J

[arctic hedge]

Sry what’s meaning with that?

[trail pulsar]

@limpid tendon
Not really sure, but try here.
Stumbled upon some stuff called Camp Haven down there.
Haven't done the Story yet. 😁

[tranquil tundra]

Exact percentages = datamines

and datamines are a no-no here

[arctic hedge]

Oh but u meant if you can say like 1 of 10000 or what it is sry if it’s not allowed

[tranquil tundra]

that, I think has been mentioned here before, but idr what it was

[limpid tendon]

That helps thanks!

[arctic hedge]

Oh I’m new so u haven’t seen it

And can someone teach me litel more about reapawn or something I saw a video about it for get albino/ diamond

[tranquil tundra]

Respawns are completely random and happen every 2-6 game days

[arctic hedge]

What’s is happening then?

[tranquil tundra]

as in, when you kill an animal, it'll take a few in-game days for them to respawn

[arctic hedge]

Oh ok

But I saw a who sayed killing animals for respawn and he killed like level 2 silver animals why would he want them to respawn

[tranquil tundra]

Because they'll respawn as a new animal

same species, but different level and possibly different fur type

[cyan comet]

Which is more practical (not easier) like for example which one can be shot consistantly from more angles

[arctic hedge]

Oh ok ty so much so if you kill more animals it can res pawn more animals because you killed more?

[cyan comet]

like how heart is super hard to hit from braodside

[tranquil tundra]

Nope

[arctic hedge]

Oh

They reapawn on same place?

[tranquil tundra]

sometimes an animal will change location, but it's otherwise a 1-to-1 respawn rate

Usually, yes

males respawn as males, females respawn as females

[arctic hedge]

Ok ty so much for the help sry for noob questions but have a good day

[tranquil tundra]

We were all there once. 🙂

[arctic hedge]

Yea have it good

[trail pulsar]

I'd say neck is more practical, because you can tell better how your angle and distance impact your shot placement.
Also more consistent with different caliber and animals.
But still, kind of whats more to your liking.
Go out and test it!😁

[cyan comet]

cool

middle lower or upper neck btw

[trail pulsar]

All of them are good for instadrop. 👍

[cyan comet]

cool

[fresh agate]

are blonde raccoons rare?

[cerulean lily]

I think they're uncommon

Not sure

What's max score for whitetail?

[distant juniper]

none

truracs basically makes it so it can go higher indefinetly

[cerulean lily]

Kay

I looked at a spreadsheet and it said 310

[distant juniper]

which spreadsheet is that

[cerulean lily]

ZaggiDK

[harsh current]

I saw that too and I’m not sure I could imagine a whitetail scoring higher than 280 😂

[tranquil tundra]

Yeah they don't get that big anymore

used to, before the diamond threshold got lowered

[cerulean lily]

So my 285 is rare? :0

[distant juniper]

what was diamond back then

[cerulean lily]

270 or sum

Can't remember

[eternal falcon]

Can I access the photos that I take with the COTW camera can I find those on my ps5?

[sage lance]

Is there a problem with the mission wicked this way comes or am I just dumb

[harsh current]

It was 276 maybe . Something but idk that but 285 was large back then

[eternal stirrup]

when does the .22H become available?

i got the dlc

i’m a few missions deep into the story

[sage lance]

It costs 75k

[eternal stirrup]

i didn’t see it in the store did i just miss it?

[sage lance]

Probably I saw it

[eternal stirrup]

thanks for the help i’ll go look again

[main delta]

[last hemlock]

what is drink time for whitetail on Mississippi

[dire solar]

Anyone know when gator drink time is if there is a drink time?

@last hemlock should be 12 in the afternoon

[idle yew]

is the .338 a good rifle

[dire solar]

If yu got Yukon go for the 300 but if yu don't 338 does the job on big game

[idle yew]

mk

[dire solar]

Only thing I don't like too much is that it's a 1 shot break action

[proper salmon]

where’s the best spot to shoot an alligator?

[tranquil tundra]

Neck

[proper salmon]

the neck bone?

[tranquil tundra]

Yeah

brain is too small of a target to reliably hit

[proper salmon]

ok is it easy to hit the neck bone?

[tranquil tundra]

once you figure out where to aim, yes

[dire solar]

Do y'all know it's drink time?

[proper salmon]

Ok i have a diamond in front of me i don’t want to mess it up

[tranquil tundra]

Practice on other gators first if you aren't sure

[dire solar]

Take your time and take a shot you are comfortable with

The gator ain't leavin

[ivory heath]

All vids I have seen say to aim between the eye and the ear, but I have yet to kill one myself, good luck!

[main timber]

Anyone has some raccoon hotspots?

[sleek horizon]

Get in any stand near where you see tracks, use the raccoon caller. It has a range of 500m so it's nuts. Give me one moment and I'll draw out some hotspots on a map for you too

[main timber]

Thanks I’ve been having little success with the caller, idk if I’m being impatient or just not looking on the good places

[sleek horizon]

They don't come right up to the blind, they'll be about 100m out so if you can get in a recently open area you'll see them. They won't call either but if you get out and wiggle about it might get them to call

[main timber]

That may explain it, I’ll experiment more on open fields.

[sleek horizon]

I realise this isn't good haha. Basically anywhere there would have been human activity they will be there. If you see roads with bins and such, or old busted up trailers you'll find them hidden about the place. I also find them a lot in the corn fields

[main timber]

Yeah I’ll try big corn field. Night hunting with so much rain is way too difficult. Thanks for the tips!!

[sleek horizon]

No problem! I've only been hunting them during the day and see them dart out across the roads and such. Good luck :)

[fresh agate]

if you shoot an alligator on the surface of the water and it dies do they float to you or do they sink

[tranquil tundra]

Either/or

better to not risk on-water shots

[novel sonnet]

Do I need the new update downloaded to be able to play the new reserve?

[tranquil tundra]

Yes

[novel sonnet]

Ah ok I was wondering why it wasn’t showing up even though I bought it

[ebon vale]

Kinda difficult to play the content without downloading it first.

[novel sonnet]

I bought the reserve dlc but didn’t know the update was required

I don’t think the others had updates unless I just didn’t notice them

[tranquil tundra]

Oh all new reserves have updates

adding to the codex and such

[novel sonnet]

Must have just not noticed the but it does make sense

[ebon vale]

Only played for a few hours, contemplating just starting over. Hopefully I'll be less bad at the game this time.

[last hemlock]

The new map isn’t on Xbox store?

Any one have some alligator hot spots

[ebon vale]

I'm confused, aren't Flat Nose Hard-Cast ammo high penetration? All other pistol Flat Nose ammo is penetration.

[spring crescent]

Are the whitetail times for Mississippi the same as Mexico?

[azure garden]

2 completely different places so my guess is no

[grizzled axle]

is someone able to explain to me the apex comp

[tranquil tundra]

I think so

[last hemlock]

Good morning :)

Heard XBOX players were having trouble finding the DLC

[tranquil tundra]

among other things

including but not limited to frequent crashes and the .270 Warden missing from the store

and it's both consoles having crashes, not just Xbox

[toxic bane]

Bunneeeeeh

[ebon vale]

So a better than usual DLC release.

[marble epoch]

are grey brown geese rare

[tranquil tundra]

Grey Brown = Common

[marble epoch]

😦

[tranquil tundra]

legitimately

Common is now Grey Brown

[marble epoch]

i see

[hidden basin]

They renamed all the “common” fur types to something other than “common”

[toxic bane]

Aye

[hidden basin]

Most animals had multiple variants of “common”

[toxic bane]

Water buffs are now 'black', my fallow deers are now dark spotted, my diamond reds are light brown and dark brown

And my dozen diamond geese are all grey brown

[spring crescent]

Not the first glitch like that, itll be fixed

[hidden basin]

Wat

[toxic bane]

It's not a glitch~

[tranquil tundra]

Not a glitch this time.

Was an intentional change.

[toxic bane]

I only had diamond commons if that's what you mean

way to rub it in

[tranquil tundra]

although, I've noticed that "common" still exists for white-tailed jackrabbits and pheasants

[hidden basin]

This is NOT a glitch. Almost all the “common” fur types got proper names

[ebon vale]

Retroactively?

[toxic bane]

Yes

I checked my lodge

[ebon vale]

Nice, that makes commons incredibly rare then.

[toxic bane]

think

Noh, commons don't exist anymore for most species

[hidden basin]

Probably as simple as changing the name on the fur type array

[tranquil tundra]

[toxic bane]

It probably got flattened too, since there was multiple variations

[tranquil tundra]

that was a joke, wasn't it

[toxic bane]

Instead of "common"="common1", "common2", etc

Now they each have individual entries with unique names

Which is what they mean with 'all fur variations should have string names now'

So my guess for pheasants and the like, is that they already only had one common variation, so it didn't need to be renamed

or they couldn't come up with a better name

[young yacht]

Anyone know how to tell if an animal is diamond potential and how to find one?

[royal kettle]

Why won't geese land with my decoys

[tranquil tundra]

Geese are bugged as of this morning

[daring knot]

Noooo just when we thought they were getting fixed lol

[tranquil tundra]

Yeah

I had to save up for the 7mm Empress the long way

[daring knot]

I was gonna grind geese yesterday and didn’t lol

[toxic bane]

I mean, they've been fixed since Rancho~

Acres broke em~

[last hemlock]

no, they were weird in MP

was fine for SP tho

What is the new lesser Kudu scoring?

[eager pine]

So how do I fix this

[marble epoch]

question
Why is the Gray wolf spelled with an a but the common color for a gray wolf is spelled grey

[toxic bane]

They seem to be broken in a different way tho

[ebon vale]

Because it's name is Gary.

[marble epoch]

fair

[toxic bane]

So you can have a grey gray wolf

Same happens with the grey fox

[ebon vale]

That's greaty.

[idle path]

Oh yeah, about the geese
At least on my end, they're pretty hit or miss
They seem to do one of 3 things:
Fly overhead in the Alert status and fly away
Come in for a landing but go out of render distance and never show up again
Fly directly towards my face

[ebon vale]

They're currently broken. Again.

[idle path]

Yeah I know

[hollow compass]

why am i not able to claim animals?

nvm had to walk a circle around the animal spamming e to get it

[clear jasper]

anyone know how to purchase Mississippi add on through the store its not showing up for me

[ebon vale]

Try searching for it specifically/manually.

[hallow flame]

Do kills on other players MP maps count towards my own GO grind

[tranquil tundra]

Not really, considering it isn't your population

[hallow flame]

Ah, so it’s like a population thing not a how many of these have you killed thing?

[tranquil tundra]

Nope

GO's are ✨RNG✨

buuuut they don't show up properly in MP for anyone that isn't the host, so it's better to do it in SP anyways

[hallow flame]

Is that how the level 5 glitch occurs?

[tranquil tundra]

Yeah

[hallow flame]

Alright thanks 🙂

[covert fossil]

hello, after the latest update my game crashes on startup, any fix?

[arctic hedge]

Max level on rosvelt elk?

[last hemlock]

Signing off

See you later folks!

[delicate grail]

anyone got any tips on getting gold hare in Cuatro?

i am here doing haremageddon , but all are silver

[fair crane]

5 medium

[fair crane]

if you are finding lots of them you just have to keep at it, also you should prioritize females since they make gold and diamond, don’t know if the males can make gold, I think they can, but females are a better bet

[delicate grail]

ok so shoot ones without nuts!

[last hemlock]

Will people who bought the best edition get the Mississipi map for free? I am having a 12 gb update and dont understand why.

[sacred nymph]

same idk does the dlc not appear in the stpre for missisipi acres

cause if it doesnt then im having the same problem

[mellow viper]

<@&393042322499305473> I have a question. can we get a VC that is set up for non Politics or Religious conversations? I dont know if you all can do that but I figured I would ask. thank you

[atomic dock]

In my opinion this server is not the place to discuss such things as those subjects tend to become very heated and very difficult to moderate especially in VC.

[mellow viper]

yes then people start throwing hate around...

[atomic dock]

Exactly.

[lean lintel]

Are you asking for chats to not have political/religious talk or to have a chat that does include them? Because the VC channels should already not have those kinds of talk

[mellow viper]

should not and them still Occurring is diffence

[lean lintel]

I see

VC is harder to moderate unless there are moderators in the chats themselves

[atomic dock]

Besides, it's directly against rule C, which you should know if you've actually read them

#📜︴rules for reference

[lean lintel]

If people are having those kinds of talk and it’s becoming uncomfortable, report it to a moderator

[sacred nymph]

yea some guy told me over fuck you for being in america and calling old white racists

im not even 20

he hated me over religion and stuff

[lean lintel]

If that happens, poke someone. That’s exactly why the rule is in place is because people turn hateful towards one another

Mods can’t know every conversation that passes through voice so any and all reports will help them enforce the rules

[arctic hedge]

Whats the best skill point and perk point?

[fair crane]

[lament hatch]

same for the gator tips please, I can't figure out where to aim to get a good headshot. it feels like no matter where I aim, I just can't get a good shot off

up to the north east there's an area called Gator Lakes

and then along the river near the "Travelers Bunk Central" cabin there's a pretty good deposit of them. I haven't explored the north/northwest though

upper spine?

Thank you to you too!

[west lance]

How do I level the dog faster?

[lament hatch]

not much to do aside from have them out the entire time and always use them for tracking

[west valley]

GATOR HUNTERS i need your help!

What would you say is the best caliber for alligators? I just fucked up a legendary with the 6.5mm.. And its hunting me....

[mortal cobalt]

I use 30-06 got 2 legendaries and gave 1 away

It's a rank 6 animal

[west valley]

Softpoint och polymer tip?

[mortal cobalt]

Polymer

Got the 2 legendary at same place

[ocean mirage]

Ol’ right just shot a gator floating on top of the water (9 Legendary) he died sinking, will he ever come up or is he long gone?

[jagged obsidian]

Long gone

[lean lintel]

Long gone

If they get completely beneath the water before they die, they sink and will eventually despawn

If they are in shallow enough water they can float back, but they have to still be above the water a bit for that to happen

[prime elm]

Why is my cotw always doing this

[signal mesa]

Can someone help me get into the lumber mill? I've spent 30 minutes looking for a way in after I got the "search for clues" quest update, but I don't see anything at all.

[lament hatch]

if you're stairing at it straight on, go to the right. next to the stack of lumber that is slightly glitching through the fence there is a hole covered by a small tree

@signal mesa if you're coming from the cotton field, it's stright forward towards the back

[last hemlock]

Are the piebald gators rare?

[signal mesa]

Thank you!

[lament hatch]

yes

[last hemlock]

ok

[lament hatch]

They're still working through all the types of common, uncommon, rare, and very rare pelts on the source that I use. if you want the link I can dm it to you

[analog grail]

Bad wifi

[amber edge]

What's the chat #917792357074751528 for?

[naive talon]

Could you send it to me?

[lament hatch]

sent

[fresh oak]

May i have it as well I'm very curious about everything right now

[last hemlock]

I think its like a photography competition

So I guess you post your pics there

[amber edge]

Nice

[ebon vale]

Any info I missed, or stuff that might be worth adding?

[atomic dock]

Ahem: #🦌︴help-and-tips message

Also in the pinned messages

[atomic dock]

Grankins Shotty has different stats than the regular Caversham

[cinder glacier]

so there are some new fur types added rn, now idk if any of them are rare

is there maybe a spreadsheet or something to the newer fur types?

[ebon vale]

Oh, thanks for letting me know. I didn't want to clutter it with all the reskins, but if it's got different stats then I for sure need to add it 👍

[high sandal]

Can you shoot gators when they swim with their head showing?

[pseudo sun]

can someone help with the mississipi mission: out of reach?
Cant seem to remmeber/find the places im supposed to

[cinder glacier]

i think you can actually

[analog grail]

Did u inspect the map again

[pseudo sun]

do i have to go back to do that?

[analog grail]

What does the mission make u do?

[pseudo sun]

Oh

foudn it

im a dumbass

[analog grail]

Ok

[ebon vale]

Shoot things quickly and accurately.

Or just check out one of the tons of guides for it on YT. There's a lot of decent get rich quick schemes, though some involve Geese that are now broken once more.

[azure garden]

Geese hunting if it wasn’t broken atm

[azure garden]

Yes, but they disappear im pretty sure

[azure garden]

What’s this, best shotty?

[low aurora]

im continously getting my killed animals float away visually, but i can still collect from an invisable body where it was killed. thought i was just losing tracking. anyone had this issue? even saw it float away
edit: when i collect i only get a screen flash up of my previous collection and it instantly dissappears. (cant choose to taxidermy or check it out)

[rough pecan]

When I look at my hud ammo etc. I have like little box at the top of my hud explain

[lean lintel]

Could be a visual bug that needs to be fixed

[rough pecan]

But it looks like it can be for some perk/skill I don't know

[lean lintel]

We’re not sure what it is right now

Afaik

[ebon vale]

Just making an excel sheet of all the weapons and ammo, and reserves and animals and basically everything I can put together, because I like making lists and being able to quickly compare stuff.

[unreal oxide]

Howdy, I am new to the Game. any tips and tricks for a Newbie?

[warm lantern]

howdy im new too

[ebon vale]

I'd say check out some of the beginner guides on TY, there's quite a few that are just a few months old, still very relevant.

[warm lantern]

where black tails spawn anyone know?

[ebon vale]

Layton.

https://thehuntercotw.fandom.com/wiki/Blacktail_Deer

[unreal oxide]

nice, wanna play together? am on pc rn

[spiral night]

Why are gators warning calling me/my friend when we aren't moving/making sound, not in wind and the visibility line is a white line?

Better pic

[idle path]

Honestly I wish I knew

[daring knot]

Your not completely hidden but I’ve noticed they seem to spook super easily

[spiral night]

Yeah I know their is one more stage

For hiding

[idle path]

When the alligators are more skiddish than deer

[spiral night]

But gators are doing this from across the lake XD

They are ambush predators, so I kinda get it

[daring knot]

As I said they seem to be spooking super easy

[twin latch]

Hello i just found a Female Elk but it was not in his normal color it was like white with some brown and black big spots? what was that

[warm lantern]

maybe very rare albino elk

[twin latch]

No it had some black tips on it

and brown

like this

[tranquil tundra]

That be a piebald

[twin latch]

a what+

[tranquil tundra]

Piebald

AKA rare fur variant for elk

[twin latch]

fck

i lost it

i hate when these things run around in circles and there everywhere some foot prints

[ivory heath]

If you try and miss killing something you really want in a need zone, just stay where you are and do not move, after a short while and if it has not died a distance away, it will walk right back to the area it was in before.

[twin latch]

Too late i walked so much in that area that there is no more grass

[ivory heath]

For the future 🙂

[twin latch]

-_-

[ivory heath]

You will miss and lose important kills for one reason or another in your adventure, it is all part of the experience.

[twin latch]

wise words old man

[ivory heath]

LOL

[twin latch]

Is the dog worth the dlc?

[ivory heath]

Personally I think it is when you kill a number of creatures from a distance and they do not all insta-die. Great for tracking them down faster.

[marsh atlas]

hey when do the eastern cotton tails rest? i know fro 0-4, but im sure there is a day time rest zone. i got a max weight estimate leucistic track been running around for 2 hours trying to get it

but kept shooting other rabbits

this guy is being extremely difficult

[twin latch]

What map is worth to buy?

[ivory heath]

I am not the right person to ask that since I have only been on a few and have been playing for only a few weeks so not familiar with most of them, but I enjoy Cuatro Colinas, Rancho del Arroya, and Savanah.

[twin latch]

so nearly every map you play you enjoy

[ivory heath]

They each have their charms I think. There is no one map that is perfect for everything

[jovial snow]

Hey just shot a gator and it ran into the water. Popped up again and I shot it. And it died. Will they float back?

[ivory heath]

EASTERN COTTONTAIL RABBIT
Feeding - 4:00 -7:30, 7:00 - 10:30, 10:00 - 13:30, 17:00 - 21:30
Resting - 13:00 - 17:30, 21:00 - 0:30, 0:00 - 4:30

[marsh atlas]

alright thanks

[analog grail]

I've found there feeding time from 5 to 9 is really good

[marsh atlas]

i already tried their feed zone but cant find it

found all the rabbits with it but not the leucistic

so im going to its resting zone, the only zone i have of the leu

[analog grail]

Oh ur looking for a specific rabbit

I hope u get the leu variation I got

[marsh atlas]

theres different ones?

[analog grail]

Yea

One has white spots

[marsh atlas]

idk but this thing is being impossible

i go back to the rest zone i have and not a single track even after waiting 30 in game mins

it would be great if they actually had warning thumps, but nope

[analog grail]

True

It seems they have multiple zones for one time period

Like when I was tracking my leu I found two of his feed zones with the same time

[azure garden]

What u like about each of those maps u stated

[haughty kindle]

Hello

Anyone to hint what to buy first

Just started playing

[daring knot]

Can someone explain to me how beavers which aren’t even on the Mexico map have managed to take down my whole f-ing grind set up ?

[slow nacelle]

My game crashes every single time I try to go to my lodge ...

[haughty kindle]

What to buy first

[ebon vale]

You really don't need to ping random mods that aren't even currently active, just to ask that. Just ask, people will answer if they have the time, and something worthwhile to say.

[haughty kindle]

I mean he has that Senior role

[ebon vale]

Or just check YouTube for dlc recommendations.

[haughty kindle]

So i guess that he knows a lot about game

[ebon vale]

🤦‍♂️

[daring knot]

Most of us here know quite a bit , as stated there was no reason to ping him

[hidden basin]

senior warden = been a moderator for a while

[sturdy bane]

Is brown hybrid rare for wild hog on the new map

[hidden basin]

no

[haughty kindle]

Oh fuck

XD

Ok deleted

Anyways can I get tip?

[ebon vale]

In case you don't know, deleting a ping does not remove the ping for the person you pinged.

Anyhoot, already gave you a tip, so I'm out.

[haughty kindle]

Thanks i guess

[azure garden]

Quail, rabbits, and turkey are all class 1. Correct?

[ebon vale]

Yeah.

[azure garden]

Okay, thank you Rekalty. 🙇🏽‍♂️

[ebon vale]

Also pheasants and hares and ducks and geese.

Also right above Lake District I believe where it forks

[slim wing]

thanks

[royal kettle]

I've been having some trouble goose hunting and I haven't been able to get geese to land at my decoys since I went the first time. I've changed spots and times on it

[daring knot]

It’s bugged

They are fleeing in the air so no one is goose hunting right now

[royal kettle]

When will it be fixed?

[daring knot]

Don’t know

[royal kettle]

Is it also affecting single player mode

[daring knot]

Yep

$3.99 a piece

you can have up to 5 of each lodge type (for a maximum of 10 lodges currently)

I want to add that I've found 2 of their need zones, but they disappeared from the map after i restarted the game

anyone got some good tip to go around the more noisy grass from the new map? is the extra bar that gig of a deal?

Morning

I'm inclined to agree.

[harsh current]

Anyone else been having crashing issues like never before on any platforms? Im on xbox and my game crashes so much in single player, lodge, main title. Let alone I get synchronization errors every time I get into a multiplayer server. Just feels like everything has issues except my FPS. It’s running great on the new map

[tranquil tundra]

The new map is very crash-happy on consoles right now

and multiplayer in general has been a bit unstable the past week or so

Yes

[noble dune]

Does anyone here play on Xbox Series S? I’m getting mine in about a week and wondering if cotw will work on the Series s

It definitely makes sense that the Trash Panda should be a class 2 instead of a class 1. (with the class 1 weapons being very underpowered for them)

@sacred nymph does the game work for you?

They can easily be taken out with the .22 hornet though

hello, my game crashes on startup after this update, anyone know how to fix this?

[fierce wave]

Do you have steam set to permanently run as admin?

@covert fossil

[covert fossil]

hmm idk

how can I check?

[fierce wave]

1 sec

[hidden basin]

1

[fierce wave]

-_-

Make sure steam is completely closed when doing this

If not completely close it wait about 5 minutes and reopen it

[covert fossil]

ok

[fierce wave]

This has fixed a couple other people's game

Did it work?

[winged depot]

Is there a document or something that tells me what gun is good for what animal?

[undone garden]

NIKO BELLIC

[covert fossil]

@fierce wave nope, says TheHunterCotW_F has stopped working when I launch the game.

[undone garden]

[o] Crash if trying to start the game with a (black) PS4 controller plugged in.
If this is happening to you, you need to enable your controller compatibility in Steam's controller settings. Steam >> Settings >> Controller >>
General Controller Settings.

maybe this?

[covert fossil]

but Im playing with mouse

[undone garden]

ok nvm then. I saw something else wtih the _F thing, but i cannot find it in the Known Issues thing anymore. either i cannot find it or they removed it

yep they removed it. I se it in an old version i have up because i didn't close it, but not the new version I also have up.

[covert fossil]

everything was good until this update, after this update I can't even open the game.

[undone garden]

try posting in the #882552595745484801 and see if they can help there

they have a Support guy that lurks there from time to time

A few things got brok't from the new update.

are you happening to run a program called "voicemeter"?

they have something like that listed in the Known issue pdf thing

[covert fossil]

hmm, I don't think so.

[undone garden]

ok yeah. this has to be addressed by the support (hopefully soon for you) 😦 Sry i tried

[covert fossil]

I have Realtek HD Audio Manager, should I turn it off?

[undone garden]

maybe try it just as an experiment. if it is not needed for anything

You should be able to run the game without worrying about other programs, but something is def wrong

figured it out

had to flip the item

[sleek horizon]

Are there any rares or diamonds available in the missions for Mississippi acres?

[potent ice]

If you have drink zones in terrible spots do you recommend trying to delete the zone and see if it moves to a more favorable location?

[delicate grail]

got mission to down Ibex from 400m, any recommendation for rifle to use?

[stuck mango]

7 mm

[delicate grail]

thanks!

[plush panther]

the 6.5 mm is also pretty useful, with it's higher accuracy, and the ammo having better range

[delicate grail]

@plush panther don't have 6.5mm, Ibex from 400m is one of missions to get it

[plush panther]

it's how you gat the rayo, but you can still buy a base one.

[ebon vale]

TIL right clicking the animal in harvest/trophy screen toggles the x-ray mode.

Does the game ever even tell you this? I feel like there's so much stuff that's completely undocumented.

[stuck mango]

Think it does

Why are geese always defensive or alert? Am I doing something wrong?

[tranquil tundra]

They're bugged

[spring girder]

It's not you, it's them.

Any fix on geese yet?

[tranquil tundra]

There will be an announcement when a patch launches.

[royal kettle]

Coolio thank you lyra

Okay thanks!

Geese also tend to fly into the ground instead of land LOL

[noble steppe]

I’m shooting animals but it isn’t doing anything

[royal kettle]

At least you can get them close to you lmaoo

[ivory heath]

I use the decoys, laying down blind, and the caller and some times they tend to land, but not often.

[low aurora]

i see it now, sorry i dont know the like 20 abbreviations they use in there xD just went through everything about crashes though. i have crashed 6 times in about 8 hours of gameplay. verified files and all good. nothing in known issues

[tropic mountain]

Reinstall EGS

[tropic mountain]

"Frequent crashes" is literally the second line

[low aurora]

on consoles.....

im on pc

[tropic mountain]

"Particularly on consoles"

Means is worse for consoles, not exclusive to...

[low aurora]

no "particularly" on there

"frequent crashes on consoles", the line you said is that

[tropic mountain]

No, you're right, I'm dumb

PC is having some trouble too, tho

For sure

[gritty basalt]

What is the proper weapon, ammo, and spot to shoot gators? My bullets bouncing off (7mm polytip)

[low aurora]

xD you had me so confused for a second, just went through it all again searching for "crash" but ye its actually really bad how often its happening

[high sandal]

What gun for Racoons and Gray fox?

[hidden basin]

class 1 for trash pandas (though they apparently should be class 2), class 2 for gray fox

Thanks!

[strong valve]

vualez #7 - kill 2 coyotes with heartshot(loc: Balmont Lake). Progress: 1/2
I don't see any coyotes there, they don't have any need zones there, I cannot lure them using caller as well. Mission seems to be bugged. Any tips? Reddit suggest clearing population game file but maybe there's any other way. PS whole Balmont Lake got no pressure and many animals spawn there(black bears, mooses, white/blacktails, even roosevelt elks, rabbits, but no coyotes...)

[undone garden]

vualez hates coyotes

Try coming back at their drink times and go around the lake area

[strong valve]

yeah and i'm stuck with doing the story line, that's the last quest line of all reserves for me, and i cannot complete it cuz of idk what 🥺

[undone garden]

man ik. Those coyote quests made me stop doing them for a while

[strong valve]

The lake looks like this, not even a single coyote need zone

[hidden basin]

try coming back between 0-4

[strong valve]

i literally spent over 10 rl hours doing that and it doesn't help, tried the same with feed/rest zones, sadly no effect

[undone garden]

crap. Sometimes if you hang out at the western boundary of that area, you can hear tem and try luring them in from there (if you haven't already tried that)

they like that little lake there

[strong valve]

you mean SW part of the lake? i tried that 🥺

[undone garden]

no the mid to northwest area of it targeting that little lake near the big one near the top left of your pic

[strong valve]

ahh i understand, gonna try that

[hidden basin]

heres an unorthodox tip: ignore that lake for a bit. kill a few yotes elsewhere, hope at least one of their respawns comes the lake

[undone garden]

gl i hope it helps. it did for me

[strong valve]

thanks guys

[undone garden]

oh yes-that might do it too. I have heard if you kiil stuff there and delete the zones on that lake then hunt somewhere else to take off the HP, it will probably let yote zones go there too

[strong valve]

btw i had 1 need zone(drink zone) of coyote, it was there but it disappeared when i restarted the game

[undone garden]

BUT that can take a while

yeah i have found when zones for them do come, they have a decent chance to do so on the west side of the lake.

[strong valve]

thanks for help, i really appreciate that, vualez is getting me mad🙄

[undone garden]

i def know what you mean

[high sandal]

Whats diamond score for Kudu?

[strong valve]

32.3

[hidden basin]

kudu got new scoring when they got truracs support

[strong valve]

my bad

[analog grail]

I think

[high sandal]

Ok! Thank you!

[split wagon]

How are goose bugged?

[plush panther]

anyone knows the number for noise reduction by the weather? like, how much does the rain affect the noise?

[tranquil tundra]

They autospook before they even get close to you

[arctic hedge]

How to get a tent?

[hidden basin]

acquire tents DLC, then go to outpost storage

[arctic hedge]

oH ok

[analog grail]

Unless ur in console then u just buy em with ingame cash

[hidden basin]

you get 5 tents for free

any additional tents are 16k a piece

[sonic sleet]

you guys got any idea how i can find where these tracks lead? I've searched in a 20m radius and i cant see where this guy went. He seems like a gold and was about to die

[sterile pilot]

anyone else having issues with hunting stands that you have built not showing up on the map in mississippi?

[tranquil tundra]

Yeah, the icons disappear from the map

[sterile pilot]

they shouldnt though should they

[tranquil tundra]

Yeah it's def a bug

[sterile pilot]

oki

im assuming devs know

[prime elm]

Sorry for the bewaited reply no it’s not it only started when apex was released for cotw

Won’t stop doing this

[analog grail]

Interesting then

[last hemlock]

Game Crashes everytime I try loading the new map

every other map works

[hidden basin]

known issue. hotfix coming next week

[last hemlock]

alright

np

[plush panther]

when some tracks end abruptly, what should i do? i'm following a potential diamond red deer, and after tracking it for a good km, i'm left with a single poop

[last hemlock]

Get a dog

[sonic sleet]

ok

[plush panther]

ok, need help again, found more tracks, but now it ends at the bottom of a hill, and i have no traces around

could it have despawned?

[tranquil tundra]

Animal populations are permanent until killed

[plush panther]

so where would it be? i'm accross the hill, found what seem to be a rest zone for red deer, but no sign of it there

after an eternity found some traces again

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand it was a f-ing gold

[remote spear]

@hidden basin I hope they add a few bug fixes to the hot fix. Is this a for sure thing about a hot fix next week

[hidden basin]

confirmed by beard

[remote spear]

Good, let’s hope the geese and a few other bug fixes get added

[last hemlock]

best load out for Mississippi?

[hidden basin]

There's class 1, 2, 4, 6, and 7. you decide which weapons to use for that

[wet prism]

Is the New new zealand map any good. I just tried it a little yesterday but not long

[last hemlock]

Do respawns work the same with animals like quall and pheasent?

[hidden basin]

not exactly new, given it was released last year. it's a pretty average map if you ask me

[wet prism]

I got it with the 2022 DLC with rancho

[hidden basin]

gotcha

it's not a hard map to hunt

[wet prism]

That’s why I thought it was new

[hidden basin]

five of the eight species can be reasonably taken with the starter .243, and you do get a free .303 by completing story missions

[harsh pebble]

303 good

[last hemlock]

Does a 4 Roosevelt Elk reach Diamond?

[hidden basin]

rarely, but it can happen

[last hemlock]

nice

and does the 7mm magnum with polymer tip pass the checks for blacktail deer or roosevelt elk

[hidden basin]

lets see

7mm is class 4-9

blacktail are class 4
roosevelt elk are class 8

[last hemlock]

oh

oki

thx

[sterile arrow]

Anyone can give a tip about the Trampfine mission in Layton?

[slim wing]

i got a question for anyone that might know the answer. to get a great one like a whitetail do i have to kill only bucks or can it be bucks and doe

[daring knot]

Only bucks

You can kill does for possible rare furs if you want but I’d say stick to bucks

[slim wing]

ok thanks

and is there a specific amount that i have to kil

[daring knot]

No it’s just rng

But there’s an average amount of kills that people have before theirs popped so

[slim wing]

ok

[tame heart]

Has anyone found a way to fix the geese yet? mine were working perfectly fine before this last update and im trying to hunt this diamond rare variant i seen the other day and i cant get them to respond to the call..

sorry for the post in the wrong room

[undone garden]

they know about it and hopefully a patch comes soon

[viscid gorge]

There's a hotfix next week that should fix that issue

[wet prism]

So I can get a free gun from story missions in the New zealand map

[tranquil tundra]

Yes.

.303 is the hardest-hitting of the 4-8 rifles imo

[wet prism]

So I should definitely do them

[tranquil tundra]

They're easy money and you get a unique animal at the end

[wet prism]

Ok bet are the missions easy

[tranquil tundra]

More or less, yeah

[wet prism]

Cool thank you

How long you say it will take

[hidden basin]

3 hours, tops

[wet prism]

Dang ok definitely gonna have to grind over the weekend. Today I can get a little start

[hidden basin]

it may end up taking less time than that tho

that's just the absolute maximum i estimate it would take

[wet prism]

Ohh alright, I turned the missions off because the mexico one annoyed me

but I appreciate the help

I will have to look into it fs

[undone garden]

I can tell you that (i personally) only use the 303 for mid range animals now. Takes 'em down pretty quick...except for gators lol...but that is me not aiming good enough

[queen ice]

how the hell im suppose to get in the paper mill? been around it 3 times

still cant find a way in

how the hell you gonna give me a mission to go to the paper mill to check it out but i can’t go in the fence?? i’ve tried shooting the locks, ramming the fence… nothing works

[undone garden]

there is a small hole in it

[tranquil tundra]

There's a hole in the fence near the back of it

[undone garden]

near where there is a inward facing corner

[queen ice]

interesting

okay

oh yeahhh, Thanks!

[potent ice]

If you have drink zones in terrible spots do you recommend trying to delete the zone and see if it moves to a more favorable location?

[vapid anvil]

What is the highest level

[last hemlock]

60

[vapid anvil]

4 away

[main delta]

can lvl 4 mouflons make diamond?

[tranquil tundra]

Rarely

[viscid gorge]

L5 is max

What's it's rateing

179.5 is diamond

[harsh current]

Where can I hunt whitetail on Mississippi

I couldn’t find a specific guide on YouTube

[tranquil tundra]

Southeast corner of the map has a lot of them

[wet prism]

I really appreciate the tip on the mission it has really helped so far I have made a lot of money

[last hemlock]

Hey y’all I’m having a hard time hunting alligators any tips?

[harsh pebble]

neck shot

[last hemlock]

Everytime I try that they just sink to the bottom never to be seen again

[tranquil tundra]

neck shot when they're on land.

[harsh pebble]

what gun

[harsh pebble]

this too

[last hemlock]

I’ve been using the M1

[harsh pebble]

ah the 303 or 7mm is better in my experience

[last hemlock]

Alright I’ll give that a shot

[last hemlock]

Morn

[young yacht]

Anyone know how to find more Diamond White tail haven’t even seen one and i have well over 100 hours am i doing something wrong?

[last hemlock]

Shoot more wt

[young yacht]

Wt?

[tranquil tundra]

Whitetail

[young yacht]

😂I shoot everyone i see

[tacit flame]

Spot for Whitetail on Rancho Del Arroyo

[young yacht]

Would it be better than Layton?

[tranquil tundra]

Rancho is much easier than Layton

[tacit flame]

I think its better but I was asking for a good spot

[tranquil tundra]

Much easier.

Layton is a very frustrating map for me.

and drink zones can be literally anywhere

[tacit flame]

Ok, whats the best spot on the map Rancho?

[tranquil tundra]

The lake that's vaguely shaped like Australia is surrounded by whitetail during their drink time

the one just north of the starting outpost is a good one too

[tacit flame]

so like north east lake u talking about?

[tranquil tundra]

I don't have a map of Rancho on me atm but yeah

[tacit flame]

what lake on there?

[cobalt apex]

So my mission would let me do it on Mississippi

<@&393042322499305473>

[hidden basin]

oi

no need to ping mods for dat

[cobalt apex]

Ok sorry

New to this

[tranquil tundra]

The two in red are the ones I had the most luck at

[signal gyro]

Which mission? Something wicked this way comes by chance?

[hidden basin]

only ping @ moderator if it involves stuff like scam links, cheats or cracks, less-than-SFW content, someone being a huge a-hole, stuff along those lines

[cobalt apex]

No B-side the point

Second location won’t let me pick up the tape

[signal gyro]

You don't get an onscreen promt when looking at the tape player?

[cobalt apex]

Yes it don’t say X like it normally does or even glow yellow

[tacit flame]

so how do respawns in this game workd, if i kill and harvest a buck it will always respwn a buck and vise versa with a doe?

[signal gyro]

You have a mission marker at that location though?
