Oh ok thank you
As far as I can tell, there isnāt really a ābest timeā apart from ācan you see the pheasants relatively easily?ā
Im struggling to find them, i get calls but never see the animal
Pheasants seem to hang out in the western half of the map. Running along the roads and blasting them as you go seems to be a decent strategy
Ok but witch time of day
Morning seemed to work for me
I havenāt seen pheasants in the top left
The lower right quadrant of the map seems to be rich with them
Ok,And then also, after a while my quail zones become inactive, how wold i fix this
quail? or pheasant?
The zones thing is quail
O
I know pro xck did a video where he got a diamond quail with the recurve. He made a pretty elaborate quail setup to grind them, you can see how he does it
Thanks
does any one know a good gray wolf guide
Left third of the map + top pair of lakes
If you buy a weapon pack do you instantly get those weapons or are they just unlocked too buy now
they are unlocked to purchase for free
You obtain them from the in-game store for a bank-busting zero cash
Oh haha thanks
what are multiplayer contest? whats the goal in the contests?
I have a HyperX Pulsefire mouse with 11 buttons on it (the standard left-click, right-click and scroll click, plus 5 side buttons and the scroll wheel clicks left and right) but Call of the Wild will only recognize two of the side buttons, like most mice only have 2 side buttons. Is there a way to get the game to recognize the other buttons, like a workaround, or am I just out of luck?
What is best gun for duck?
22LR or 12 gage pump
Maby 20gage semi outo
@lone elk I have a Razer, but just use the software to map the buttons to the desired keystroke
I tried. When I go to remap anything I click the extra buttons and they don't respond. Like they don't exist as buttons to map something to. But they work for other games.
The mouse software, not COTW
I have a Logitech g500, you need to map the ingame button within the mouse software.
I think I tried that, or some form of that. I have all the side buttons set to functions for the computer, like volume up/down and forward/back for the browser, but do I have to set them to a keyboard button in order for the game to recognize them?
I find it funny to see bears and deer sit together
Yes, for example if COTW is not recognizing the thumb button and you want to use it for the map. Open your mouse software, and for your thumb button assign the letter m, or whatever key you use in game.
I'm pretty sure when I tried that before, the HyperX software doesn't allow for setting the buttons to letters, only other keyboard functions like Home and Pageup, things like that
like this, in the bottom of the screenshot, see how i have n and g assigned to those buttons. One is toggle run, the other is run
HyperX doesn't seem to allow that extensive of customization, from what I can see
what I love about logitech is they even have profiles.
This oen has profiles but they're not useful if the customization isn't there. You can't reverse scroll on the mouse I have so that down is up and vice versa, but you can on other HyperX mice
And this is the only one they offer with more than 4-5 buttons (it has 11) so you'd think it would have even more thorough customization than their others but it just doesn't.
Have you checked on Reddit to see if others have overcomed this
Sweet, Have my Whitetail GO spwaned!!!
If I shoot an animal and it become diamond will it respawn as a diamond or gold?
random
What map is that?
layton
Is hirshfelton ( or however you spell it) any good for whitetale
theres none on it
but there is red deer
which can be a great one
anyone know how i can find mallard need zones to hunt at. i dont know how to find them if there out in the water?
Balmont lake
how do i like find the need zones like how the other animals have their drinking zones?
Finding the animals during their zones
And I think you might see feathers in the water and if you examine them it shows the zone
I just go and look wherever I can and make sure its marked after
Someone told me you could do this, not sure if its true or not
If you see ducks in the water it will mark the feed zone for you
Or rest
Yeah if you have a tent you can camp near them and get them that way
But that's just me
Hirschfelden does not have whitetail. The maps that have whitetail are Layton, Rancho, and Mississippi
Cheers
is there a way to get out of the game and onto desktop
without closing whole game?
ping me please :) ill be doing something
Press Alt + Tab
If you don't have another app open it won't work, in that case go to settings, display and change display mode to Windowed, then click the bottom right of the taskbar
ohhh that thing
tysm i completely forgot
š
No
Animal spawns are the same on all platforms
Found all my white tail zones and prob killed about 50 bucks and next run I see a big buck that I couldnāt spot and out walks a lvl 3 piebald
š±
That's basically it, unless you have the Wild Goose Chase DLC (AKA goose decoys)
Anyone know the Crosspoints Scope's Dot Yardage?
Thanks!
anyone know the (mission) trophy animals you can get from all the maps?
thanks
At max zoom its 40m per dot for 300grains, 20m for 420grains and 10 for 600grains
where do i go hunting on hersh and can i do it on multiplayer?
Does anyone know whats going on im on ps4 and everything worked fine yesterday but today every time i join a server no animals are rendering for me and it wont let me go into the hunting towers around the map
yes, you can do it on Multiplayer, as to where you want to hunt, thatās up to you, I would recommend Spreeberg, Rathenfeldt, Schonfeldt, Petershain, Müllerwald and Ritterstein to start with since the right side of the map is easier to hunt than the left. The more you hunt the more experienced you get, and in my opinion experience is key for hunting Hirschfelden. Good Luck!
This will help too
thx
Does anyone know what the max score for lynx is?
28.9 I think
Thank you
For starters I recommend hunting the petershain fields as well as other fields during fallow and roe deer feed times as most of the land is open field allowing for better visual, but you could always hunt drink times on the lakes just as well
I also recommend picking up the COTW companion app from the app store as it's very useful as a new player to know when certain need zones are for certain animals
Or cotw guide on iPhone
Or the cotw spreedsheet
Or video guides on YouTube
Has anyone done Peppeās Challenge & if so what was the best way of going about it?
What is grey Wolf resting time
Guys, when I try to enter the multiplayer game, the following error appears: Connection timeout. And I can't log in, does anyone know how to solve it?
Daylight hours
What exact time
Thanks
Is there any way I can get the grizzly bears to go aggressive
get in very close and shoot them, that can sometimes make them aggressive
Here's a few questions, what are the chances if spawning a GO if 1 male red deer is killed and how many males are in 1 map
Actual chances fall under Rule J, so the most that can be said here is "GO's are very rare"
How is it under rule J if I may ask?
Actual chances come from datamining, which is hacking into game files.
Oh
Goose
It is better to wait until the update, because there is whole rework for ducks, and the things may change
Thereāre changes for geese also
So.. ive been back and forth with support but it seems its not helped at all.. curious to see if anyone else as come across the same problem.. my steam is linked to another game (second extinction) and it wont let me "create an account" has anyone found a simple solution to this so i can play with my friends.
#š¦ļø“general message This might help
Awesome, ill give that a try, thank you much.
What is feral pig drink time
And a hotspot map
is this game cross platform? can i play w my dad when im on pc and hes on xbox
Hey, it's been a few years since I last played and I saw that they did some changes to weapon classes/integrity. Are there still background checks that affects your integrity, like letting it bleed out instead of killing it on the spot, or are those 4 checkmarks (right caliber, vital shot, etc.) the only things affecting your rating now?
Those four checks are the only thing that affect integrity
Quick kill and consecutive harvests used to count, now they only affect how much cash and xp you receive
gotcha, thanks! š
Btw, not every animal has a trophy organ. All class 1 animals, for instance, as well as raccoons and alligators
On those animals, the āintact trophy organā check is passed automatically
the gators not having a trophy organ is to allow you to brain shot them, which, IRL, is actually a recommended tactic to deal with them. In-game, itās not that much different. Gators are very rough animals for their class, so a brain or neck shot is what you need if you wanna bring them down quickly, especially if you want them to die before they dive to the bottom of the river and end up drowning and being gone forever
last time i played and tried to hunt geese/goose they didnt even try to land where my decoys was and like week before that same spot 5-10mins new flock came and landed and the area on map was normal not purple
Can you check peoples levels on console
On playstation hold options
how many minutes equals an hour in the game?
1 min IRL = 4 mins in game
thanks
So in my experience some field do this after a wile, i will share a location witch work great for me
Top left field, it has a lot of field surrounding it in 3/4 directions so you can easily find them after shots with the 22.
Top left field excluding the 2 that are diagonal
Like the 4 that are like this ::
Can i only have five lodges in total or five lodges of each? So 5 safari and 5spring creek?
Five of each
Is it possible to hunt mallards using the decoys from the Duck and Cover DLC becuase I've never seen anyone do it
They're broken rn
Not at the moment you'll have to wait till the update comes out
Yes you can, but ducks are broken right now
hey, might be dumb, but how do i access the photos that i take in game? im on the epic version if that helps
Are they broken like the geese were, were they don't come in to calls
Screenshots folder
thanks
Do gators scare animals?
uhh, i think so?
i honestly don't know, i've hunted gators but just dont have many things around them
so maybe they do spook stuff
Yes
Ok
Does anyone have an updated Mississippi hotspot map?
Do I stop earning skill and perk points at level 60? Iāve been level 60 for a while now and havenāt earn any since
level 60 is max level
Yes
Is it better to hunt multiplayer or singleplayer for first diamond
imo, if your looking for a fast Diamond, MP is better, however if you dont mind taking the time and farming for it, singleplayer is better
If its your first than you should do single player map usually spawn with a few diamonds
Does anyone know what the highest score for geese is?
Just wondering, can you call in the cinnamon teals wit a caller?im in a blind, with decoys out and Iām using the caller and no ducks for a good 20 mins?
Yeah they are broken
It will be fixed this update
Can someone say any tip iam trying to do a mission that say "hunt a red fox with 60lb bow" but when I try to find some red foxes they always run from me or go somewhere forever and never stops...
hide in a bush/tripod/blind/treestand, make sure the wind is good and use the caller. I would highly recommend using your discovered zones on the map, that can help a lot for finding them.
Also scent eliminator is good
that too
Press i if the hosts ping is 0 you disconected
Maybe it's the multiplayer God's mad about the mountain goat
Yours will always be 0, the game shows ping as as how long it takes to ping the other player not how long it takes for you input/output to go through, its not the same as fortnite
Can anybody tell me what in the world is happening? When I equip weapons other than the starting ones it acts like they arenāt in my inventory either. Iām so confused
Okay update I just restarted a second time and itās working alright then game š
š
Does revolunti have a console release date yet?
Are zeroings broken with bows? Haven't played for quite a while and hopped back to it. Mine was shooting waay low. At 40m with 40m zeroing it hit similarly to 20m zeroing.
all bows or the crossbow?
Had just cb-70 with me. Didnty try others yet
You used the wrong pins probably
I've shot a lot of animals with the bows, I know how it works š
But that would've been a diamond i think
With the rack
With bows i find it better to not use zeroing
Yup. Welcome back to game š
Just wanted to ask if others had similar issues. Will test at range tomorrow
Really looked like the arrow hit where the second pin from the bottom was
Yeah, pretty much
Can I harvest the animals I killed on multiplayer that are glitched if I leave them for a while?
Wdym glitched
I can't pick them up
check your ping
dunno the keybind on xbox, but if everyone elses ping is 0 then you disconnected (or the host's)
Hold down the 3 lines button
Or the 2 squares button
Yea they're all 0
yep, thats a disconnect
nothing you can do at that point except for leave and hope to find the animals again on that server
cheela?
yo im tryna connect to a apex connect account but it says my steam is already linked. im guessing its from the first hunter game but is there a way to sign in to it instead of unlinking?
Yeah, cheelah
Have you played generation zero, just cause, second extinction or any other game by avalanche and made an account for it?
Hello there i recently found COTW in the Xbox game pass and just wanted to try a hunting game once.
Now im playing it for few days and i got to say "damn thats relaxing"
But as i dont got experience with hunting games or hunting in real life im not so experienced where to shoot on which animals. So far im only playing in layton lake. I try to hit the lung for the most times. But if im to close or too far i kinda miss it
What animals are you attempting to kill?
Right now i literally shoot anything to level up haha. Only lv 8 so far.
If you don't have one of te better scopes yet, that will help accuracy greatly. Once you have enough rifle points and cash. Also are you using the .270? get Polymer Tip bullets when you can
I would focus more on the smaller and medium size animals like Blacktail, whitetail, coyote, roe deer, etc
Ideal place to shoost them is a lung shot, which is roughly the front half of the torso
The crease between the shoulder and torso is ideal
And if you have polymer tip bullets available, use them
Yea found the .270 in a outpost or what they called where i can buy stuff and rest.
Outpost, yes
Right now im shooting white and blacktails. Bears and elks. Never saw a roe deer so . And the only times i see coyote is, if they spot me, call and run away
Roe deer are on the other base game map: hirschfelden
Can i switch between the differend maps? I still got only about half of layton lake but later i would like to switch too
Or i know that i can switch over the map but what happens with my missions i got on layton?
Progress is retained when you switch maps
Your levels and weapon score and associated unlocks are linked to your profile, not to any map
Ok thanks. And what maps would you suggest for a beginner?
Do you have any of the DLC maps?
If not, suggest Layton
Regardless tho, I suggest watching flinterās 2021/2022 beginner series
I got fun playing it so getting some dlc isnt the problem
And you can play all maps in multiplayer even if you don't own them š
Still what would be a good beginner map except layton?
Silver ridge peaks, the animals everywhere literally
Cuatro colinas is good as well
Ok i get those next. I just got the "starter pack" with the maps in new Zealand and Mexiko
I agree, Silverridge peaks does not disappoint. Other maps feel more empty at the beginning
Ok so i get silverridge too š
Regarding weapon packs. Are those available after buying or do i need to unlock those with rifle points too?
Is there a actually way to duck hunt
You get them straight out of the store and 100% free you just have to buy ammo and the ammo is already unlocked as well so you can be lvl one and use the 308 as long as you have enough money to buy a box of bullets
Meh thats boring. So i guess i wait till i unlock all regular ones and after that maybe get a weapon pack. Are those just better or only optical? Or what do they got?
A few are ābetterā, but not strictly necessary with the exception of a .22 rifle (which you can get from either weapon pack 1, Mississippi Acres Preserve, or the modern rifle pack)
A .22 rifle is a must for hunting almost anything class 1
Cuz 22 pistol is so bad
Birdshot

.410 birdshot
Bitch I killed a Harlequin duck from 80 yards with that damn thing
If you're tight on space and running around a map with rabbits the 410 birdshot is amazing
Same with the 22 pistol
Iād rather have a rock
m8 I smoke geese all the damn time with the .22 pistol
Oh but you say you want a rock
Yes
We need a slingshot in game
Just because a weapon can be used doesnāt mean it isnāt hot trash
Looks over at 6.5
True
You know the 6.5 is bad you just don't want to show it
It it was a 2-6 or 3-7 I would say otherwise
But alas it's not the 223
won't lie, if the next rifle is another 4-8 I'm going to be angry
Yup
.22 AR is better
Ar can't do the 22 trick :)
Jokes on you itās going to be a 5-8
5-7
āHow did you get that strong?ā
āEvery time EW added a 4-8 rifle, I did one push-upā
what is the best dlc
250yrds+ yes but under 250 no
All them
Define ābestā
the best wepon pack
Define ābestā
Honestly so far i dont even mind rabbits or ducks. If there are ducks at layton. I hear them sometime but never saw one.
Those little animals are kinda easy to overlook haha
So far i only use rifles as i cant get that close to animals. š
You may like the Modern Rifle pack then
Also at some point I would recommend getting a trophy lodge if youāre into the whole idea of stuffing your prized kills and putting them on display
The 22 pistol definitely is trash
Explain how it's trash please
@last hemlock
@tawdry meadow @hidden basin
Bad range. Just canāt compete with any other 22. Could be me but I find it way harder to hit birbs with
It's easy to pop bunny's at 200yrds with a little practice
Flying birds and 100+yards yeah
And my God it is a turkey murderer
At all ranges
I've been using the .22 pistol to earn some handgun score and has performed well so far
I just smoked stuff with the 44 for that
And it only weighs one unit compared to 2.5
The 22 pistol + 410 shot shells is a great compact small game option
and has an effective range you can measure with a yardstick
Fr
we do a little trolling
Nah it's called skill
I have that
So do I that's why I see the .22 pistol as good little gun and very useful
Just blast everything with the 300

Yea guess i get that next. Thanks man.
Can I name the trophys somehow? Would like to get my first shots there. And without i dont know what was the first ones š
No you sadly canāt name the trophies
Unfortunately
405 yards
Yes I'm very proud of it
Then donāt get distracted by deer
When the host leaves a multi-player game who becomes the new host, the person who was second there or another person who owns the reserve
I'm doing the Parque Fernando trophy collection but I can't place my diamond puma - anyone figure out how to do this?
Iāve heard a few reports about that. I say #šļø“support
Thanks!
So when does the nee map come out
No date yet.
Soonā¢ļø
whatās a quick and easy way to earn money
hunting geese
What happens if you miss vitals on a great one?
you get a gold
Drops to gold
1.5 if you're not carrying more handguns since you have to add the optic
good option to pop a couple bunnies in the sidewalk, but not for serious, targeted hunting
A minimum of 0 meters
Buy a new tv without a controller embedded in the middle of the screen.š¤·š¼āāļø
can you run classic good with a mid pc
No
i have a lenovo idea centre thatās 1yr old
Yes
ok i will try thanks
Yeah
Classic can run on basically anything made in the last 4 or 5 years
like good too?
Reasonably well, anyways
ok iām exciting to start playing it
Might wanna head over to #491900650519789578 then
I have no idea how to duck hunt
they're broken right now, so you won't be able to hunt them properly, the best way to hunt them is to shoot them with the 22LR or 22H while they're in the water
Ahh well thanks anyways
They will be fixed in the next update
yea, the most recent duck I got, I sniped it with the .22LR while it was flying away.
Can you see the missions on another reserve?
No
In-game menu, system, game, find the setting for enabling missions
You likely have that disabled
@dusk saddle
Yes worked, thx
Did at some point in the past, when you got a steam achievement, some type of ingame notification showed up on PC?
Yes, and that still exists today. Itās possible you may have the steam overlay or notifications disabled for COTW
anyone got any recommendations to grind for a super rare
thatās fairly easy but still unique lol
Not easy at all
Some cases they are rarer than a GO
Step 1: lose the job or quit school
How much deers could the average player kill in 8 hours?
Depends on how heavily youāre grinding
And how insane you are
^^^
average player
I know of guys that get 50+ an hour at bare minimum
Well given if there are 2 males per need zone
Youāve got two ends of the spectrum:
Sane Person āāāāāāāā Cashnip
Hereās the thing, we donāt really have a baseline for āaverage playerā
In the middle is like 25-50 bucks per hour
50 something need zones per map
On the right is 100+
Iād say a normal sane player who is playing semi-casually could reasonably do 10-20 an hour
100 deer without respawning
I get 100+ per hour what does that make me
I would think 30 an hour if they have tents set up
Replace the right end with LC
I once did 1k+ BCT Ibex in a day
Man is the definition of insanity
just had to pin that lmao
sorry worded it wrongā¦i meant what animal should i go for
My recommendation on grinding for super rares: donāt
Unless you have no life and are absolutely criminally insane
doesn't ron mctube say he want 9 in saeska safari and 2 in spring creek
*cough
I mean, more insane than LC and I put together
Yeah but Ron actually has a life beyond grinding
where am I on the spectrum of "help me"
Lynx are the easiest of the animals to find in this game and the make rare a lot so I recommend them
out-of-bounds error
good.
wait, which direction
youāre funny
sadly it does not specify which boundary was exceeded
i hate lynx and med ved in general with a passion
Iād say easiest three animals to grind for a super rare are mountain lion, pronghorn and Merriam turkey
SRP is pretty much the easiest map to get SRs on
Still do
Hell it should be renamed to Super Rare Peaks
Mostly in the bay and northern coast
I need to get me a super rare
@hidden basin you gonna help me whether you like it or not
but I donāt feel like it.
I do have the steam overlay active/checked. Is the notifications for COTW in COTW menu, or steam?
Likely steam
Your just asking for a super troll grinding mt lions for one
Welcome to my world
u get diamonds?
Grey wolf drink zones?
Left third of the map, plus the two northernmost lakes
@hidden basin you have the times by any chance?
Thereās a big spreadsheet pinned to this channel
Itās got all the times you could ever want
10-4 thank you
I have 3
Can someone give me advice about benefits? Im only using rifles so far but still not so sure what would be best to choose.
Right now i got the skills to reduce wobble while aiming and to reload at walking but after that im clueless.
And pistols bows and shotguns are mainly for short range? So with a dog its not really usefull to use
Shotguns people mainly use for class ones
But I use all of the various types of weapons to spice up my game play
I would love to use bows tbh but those short range are kinda meh. And as it doesnt fly like a bullet you need to think about how a arrow fly. š¤
But the biggest problem is i dont even know if i got the patience to crawl to every animal i want to shoot.
With rifle its easy. I spot them. I shoot them and sometimes i shoot a second one right after that. š
Listen man
When I was leveling up pistols
I realized how easy it was to get in range of big buffalos within 100m
Well if you have zeroing it won't drop until 60m
How you do it? You go to a spot to find some and after that slowly crawl to them? Or are you following some footprints?
you sprint to within 150 meters then walk to 100-120 and shoot them
I never follow footprints
Shoot at 100 with a bow?
I do if I find something that might be max weight.
So if you shoot an animal it will respawn with another Trophy rating
Do you have to collect it before it respawns?
it will respawn anyways
okay
What about drinking and feeding zones they seem to dissappear during a while
Is this designed feature
If you kill all animals that's part of the zone most the time it'll disappear
Are they spawning back in a time?
they spawn back elsewhere
Or same place it's random really
I have killed coupe hundred proghorns
I have killed every male on sight
Just to get diamond
@hidden basin You are the one that updates the spreadsheet?
No
ah just linked
Yes
Can lynx make diamond at 8 mythical
Iāve yet to see one make it. I have seen mythicals go as high as 27.5 tho
(Diamond being 27.6)
Do scrub hare only leave poop tracks now?
I believe all rabbits and hares leave mostly droppings as tracks. They rarely leave actual tracks, but they still do leave them
can anyone gimmie a hand with gooses hunting or just a map of where to find (i kno there are maps of where to find stuff on hersh but i am looking for goose)
Any straw field will do
Arenāt the males the ones that usually leave the tracks?
Every time I find any they belong to males only
They don't have zones, go in a straw field on look up for 10 mins
ok thx
Technically yes, but the āzonesā they have are pretty much all straw fields or cornfields
Thats ducks
They are getting reworked with the Finland update from what I am told tho. They will have actual need zones on the ground with this update. The decoys will make them more likely to come to you instead of wherever their need zone is
i dont have the duck dlc
Don't need it
ik
Just buy the geese caller for 6k
To hunt ducks, you do not need the duck and cover DLC
And call in a field
i have it
The dlc simply gives useful stuff to hunt them
oh ok i thought it was like geese
cough 20 gauge cough
do the geese only come in the dlc?
Also no
No
damn
Once again, just gives stuff thatās useful to hunt them
go in a straw field on look up for 10 mins
what guns would u recomend bc i think i have the gatekeeper or watever, 7mm, and like the 30-30
is there a .22 in the base game
Sadly no
fook
There are three DLCās that have a .22 rifle in them:
Weapon pack 1 (Virant .22LR)
Mississippi Acres Preserve (Kullman .22H)
Modern Rifle Pack (Zarza-15 .22LR)
well im gonna go back to doing an asignment but thx for the help and good luck with ur hunts
What's the best weapon to hunt class 9 animals with?
Currently a level 17 with 70k in the bank
.300, .338, or .470
The free .338 comes from a side mission that is an absolute pain to get done
oof
I can buy the normal variant but I can't buy the polymer tips,
What about the .300 and .470, do I have access to those?
You need Yukon for the 300 and Vurhonga for the 470
.300 = if you have Yukon
.470 = if you have Vurhonga
470 nitro
It is not a long-range weapon
Keep in mind that it costs 90k
oof
I was a bit disappointed when I got it
what about the 7mm? can it hunt class 9s?
.45-70 is also an option
Isn't the .454 free now?
yes
It's good but it's not suitable for long range
Neither is the .470 nitro - lol
is the 300 easier to acquire compared to the 470?
I can slap a scope on the .454, and do 100-150m with ease
The .300 and .470 are both immediately available to buy but one costs like $70k and the other costs $90k
gotta grind i guess
yes, I would choose the .300 over the 470
can i buy the polymer ammo for the .300 at lvl 17?
I think you need a certain amount of rifle score
Anybody recall how much they nerf the $$$ on geese? is it like 50%... 75% of what it used to be?
Does anybody have a video for the best way to set up and albino lion grind
kill da lions
~800-1100 cash/goose -> 500-700 cash/goose
The fact that they are still considered one of the best money-making methods in the game tells you how broken they were pre-patch š¤£
I currently have 300k cash off of purely geese
Trying to hit 1 Million before Finland comes out
Are mel Conttontail rare because I have 2 on my map
Best spots for pheasants?
the best reserve/map to hunt geese?
The only reserve currently with geese is Hirschfelden
oh ok thank you
Focused shoot only works with rifles? Or does that zoom function work on bows too?
And what exactly is zeroing š¤
For savanna, what is the easiest way to grind money and trophys? I've been grinding lions but idk what is best
fair enough
also yesterday i killed a gold lion with my .308 and it downgraded to silver, idk how i can prevend that?
use the right ammo type
my diamon moose ran into the water, any tips? or it's lost forever?
and pass all 4 harvest checks
it should float back up to the surface
if it doesnt, RIP
aaah i didnt know that was a thing
it just disappeared when it touched the waterš„ŗ
what are the best spots to hunt european bison on hirshfelden?
any of these areas
alright thank you!
Hi there, so I've started getting into the game. I was wondering, there's a bunch of purple spots on the map, do they go away over time or should I just go and hunt in a different map or area?
those "purple spots" are hunting pressure, which is created when an animal dies. hunting pressure only goes away when it is created elsewhere, and enough pressure on a certain area will delete any need zones there.
i'd say that going to a different area is good
WHat are good lion hunting spots on savanna?
thanks @distant juniper
so just to confirm, if I shoot an animal, and the map turns purple, that means that the animal actually died? so I should go and look for it like crazy even though I can't find it?
yes
I'll have to pay better attention then, I've lost quite a few animals where I couldn't find them at all. thanks for the info
Got that problem too. Thats another reason for me to switch to bow hunting. With hitting multiple targets you cant trace them well following blood haha
When you kill an animals it makes a purple spot
Kill to much animals the purple spot get brighter
When it gets to bright animals stop coming to that area
I understand now š
.308 is class 4-8, lion is class 9
Use a weapon + ammo thatās rated for class 9
have you seen them in real life
Probably because they can 1HKO you and they are quite tough IRL
My guess is to allow you to use the 470 on them
Do they go aggressive?
They can indeed go aggressive
Oh
Also IRL apparently the minimum requirement for lion hunting is like .375 H&H
Do they attack in a pride?
Afaik no
Ok
bow hunt them at your own risk
I don't know guns enough to understand how powerful that is
in my codex ive got 5742 harvests but 296 of them arent counted in the respective fields (i.e it says 100 diamonds when it should be 108). does anyone know why certain kills arent being counted
another example is i got a diamond goose yesterday but it didnt count to the diamond harvest counters
~2/3 more powerful than .308
Did you play the game around 1 year ago?
started in september last year
September 2021 or 2020?
thanks
Second, there was a codex glitch that happened but afaik it happened in spring last year not September but I could be wrong
Like to some people it says they have 15 GO's when they haven't encountered a single one
its like certain species are bugging out the codex
All species were bugging it
im talking about after the codex bug in spring
where do you see these numbers?
codex - hunter - hunting profile
ah ty
The best way to help you with that, if you can get it would be the bloodhound dlc
it's been going better now, at least I know now that the animal is dead somewhere :p
Yea
what callers should i take to layton lake
im taking 308. ,cb65 bow and nordin 20sa with me
with all the ammo and arrows from 1-9
It depends on what you plan to hunt. The callers you wanna take will be the ones that work for the animals on the map, but you may not wanna take all the callers at once
well idk what to hunt here normally i just take antler rattler, elk caller and duck caller but is it worth taking moose caller
Definitely worth bringing the moose call.
I also bring the ādistressed fawnā call for black bear.
Itās my German Shepherd, lol.
Whatās the best weapon to hunt water buffalo with,
there is no ābestā, anything rated for class 9 will do fine, .300 and .338 are the most popular options
Anybody remember the very first outpost you land on when opening medved?
hmmm, maybe I'm not remembering correctly, but I thought the first blind I visited build itself for free. (Found it. Pro tip - Build out hunting structures are white, not green - lol)
hi guys, i have around 50 hours in the game but i still don't understand how am i supposed to approach an animal without getting detected. For example let's say that i am hunting a bear and i don't have the caller unlocked. I get a shot on the bear, it flees and then everytime i am trying to track him it runs away. (i am crouching all this time and the direction in which the wind blows is not directed to the bear) am i doing something wrong ?
When I first started, I always made sure I took a good shot that would kill, since when they don't die and run away, sometimes you can follow them all over the map.
I really got tired of chasing animals all over the map, since I'm the type that if I hit it, I feel obligated to finish it off.
If I had to chase, I'd give the animal time to get back into the "calm" state, as they are easier to approach then. Callers don't work when they are alert and nervous. Same thing applies though... Sound, Smell, Sight, which sounds like you are doing.
Hot spots for mountain lions on SRP?
I don't recommend tracking unless it is a high level or a rare, instead try hunting a need zone
Also try using polymer tips if you aren't already, the penetrate really deep into the animal so they can hit a vital
why is Mississippi so noisy even walking puts you into red sound whether it is on grass tilled fields or mud
ok, thanks
What rifle are you using for large game like bear?
At what range do animals start to hear you stomping around?
200 meters is the range at which they stop hearing gun shots. so inside of that i play it safe and stay quiet
Whatās the most amount of sound you can make before they get alerted?
2 bars?
that im unsure of. 2 bars i was able to get within 10m of them while they were drinking, but then again it was in a windy part of the map
any solid tips for proper tracking, gents? Ill track an animal for kilometers and never catch up to them, despite keeping my noise to a minimum. I can never gain on them well enough to even see them, let alone take a shot. Ive killed more animals that ive simply stumbled upon than animals tracked, and when tracking im more likely to come across an animal that isnt the one im tracking. any pointers, other than wind direction?
where do i find the idea channel
well i think cotw should add headphones that help with gun sound muting and makes animal louder as the work irl
and some thermal stuff
suppresors
white and black with build in range founder
and of cource binos
Interesting. Harvested animal from the 'free' hunting structure on medved.... yet didn't get the steam accomplishment. Do I need to spend the $$$ to build one?
probably, but they arent too expensive. also check the type of structure. does it say hunting stand or ground blind?
for pheasants, does mid landing sequence count as grounded? I shot one and it was still 5-6 feet off the ground but coming down and it counted it as grounded
Camper: Harvest an animal from a hunting structure in Medved-Taiga National Park
yes
dern
but it doesnt say what kind of structure tho could be anything
Yes...
The f2p one
how do you expect a developer to fix a crash message
well other games can crash
Crashes that frequent tend to mean your computer isn't playing nice with the game
what about RAM?
Tho
I run on 12 GB ram with a gtx 1050 2 GB
That might be it
if not though, https://support.thehunter.com/hc/en-us/articles/4415698207890-Can-t-Launch-theHunter-Call-of-the-Wild-PC- some generic crash troubleshooting things here
the article is called "can't launch" but the steps here can fix other crashes
Then it should be healthy
Ofc
I dont even have any apps on it
Only have like 4 apps and thats all
And the rest are just games
did you update your drivers?
i have a I7 7700k and a GTX 1060 6GB with 64GB of ram and it crashes sometimes so your not the only one
graphic card
Ye
64 GB of RAM damn
better to be prepared then under performing
system information on windows
32 gig ram
nah
I mean people still use 8gb ram
better to have more then less
š
me and a friend almost always go on bison killing spree's and get money that way
I have a bit of money so I wanna buy a weapon pack and reserve which ones so I buy
What weapon pack do I get?
My PC on with almost nothing open runs at 4gb lol
no get the mrp
if you absolutely need a weapon pack get modern weapon pack
^^
Or sbwp
I donāt need a weapon pack I just wanted one, is there something else you would suggest?
Eh thats what I would do
If you need money in-game go on a bison killing spree its fun
Bison or waters
Bison they're slow so you can run after them on foot or on a ATV
Yes
Bison is a little easier waters is a little harder but makes a tad bit more money
Just made 10Gs with bison and just a bow
Should I find all of my mountain lions drink zones on SRP before I start trying to grind for diamonds/rares?
not strictly necessary
@hidden basin will they not spawn in other drink zones if I donāt?
where do people hear this?
Whitetail grinders
I seen what bop said
of course
SOrry not sorry
Nah, srp hasn't had a redistribution so they would spawn in the same general area
When is the update coming and maps getting reset?
No date yet.
Pretty far, like 50 meters
And for now im using a .270 huntsman, trying to make 36k to buy the regent magnum
if you asked me
either the pack with zarza 308
drillig rifle pack
or m1
tho zarza
cant kill capes
m1 too
Ight
Is there a way to control the recoil on the 300?
Anyone know how to get over ground that you'd fall through normally?
There's a specific part of the map I clip through on foot and on vehicle and a landmark is almost in reaching distance from the edge
Can bloodhounds bring back ducks and other waterfowl?
I was about to say that lol
The COTW Info Spreadsheet shows spirit fur for a brown bear to be uncommon & mission. Anybody know which mission this is on?
It's not in any mission. Not sure why it says it is.
Thanks, thought I missed one.
Possibly might of been marked with mission since Bears for Grakin 2 requires an uncommon, rare, or very rare, which most likely you are going to find a spirit bear to fill that.
Dark brown, gold, grey, and blonde also fulfill the requirements for that mission.
Speaking from experience.
Oh, yeah... good point..I shouldn't talk until I've finished my first cup of coffee and wake up - lol
Also had a weird thing, where some of my side missions didn't pop up until I finished the main mission, that was strange.
Huh... I'll have to remember that.
A lot of reserves have that afaik
I've only done Layton, Hirsch, Med and Vuronga so far.
Though I guess the missions start getting less and less as you advanced in the maps.
SRP and onward donāt have any side missions š„²
Yeah, that is unfotunate for me, I really do enjoy them.
For this accomplishment, it has to be from a built hunting stand, not a built ground blind.
Looking back at cash's commment... it all makes sense now - lol
There it is lmao
At one of my red deer zones no red deer are spawning what should I do?
hunt a different zone?
dont hunt that zone for a while
you might see deer coming back later on
If you spawn near the zone (less than 200m), this may be the reason. Try to come from somewhere further.
likely around june 25th
thats when they release dlc
are mela chamois rare?
yeah i thought they used to be an uncommon
they used to
thank you
Yo guys when the finland gonna be released, will this dlc be on discount like -10%?
they seem to do 25% off for the first week the DLC is out. we will have to wait and see tho. i cant confirm anything at this point
Ok, that's good
Hey can someone tell me ye lesser kudu drink times
Yooo is that the complete spreadsheet for cotw by a-a-aron???
Lets go
Is the disturbed vegetation skill still a thing?
It is but its useless now
Why?
Because you could find the fur type of an animal without a skill now by looking at the track in the map
hmmm, One would want to ask "why" once again - lol
@hidden basin thanks for that man just killed a diamond on the coast line
Because why waste a skill pint on something you can already do š¤·āāļø
shhhhhh
if you draw attention to it the more likely it'll get fixed š
one of the bugs we actually benefit from
I don't think it's a bug tbh
Disturbed Vegetation just saves you from opening the map to check + gives you an extra track type to help deal with long distances between other tracks
it's a bug, it's been fixed in the past, but 2-3 updates ago it was brought back
do 3kg canards make diamond
wut
I spotted a 3kg canard in layton while it spooked
a canard is a mallard that was effected heavily by pollution, specifically cans
ok great
Hey I need someone to confirm something for me. I had a few people see a piebald gold buck i shot on ranch i and they all reported me saying it isnāt in the game and itās not possible. I want to know what is going on it is in my trophy lodge but approximately 4 players reported me.
Iām also being harassed about it
can you show a picture of the animal
Alright Iām new but there is about 4-8 people who have been harassing me about it. They even showed a pic of them reporting me I can show that too
It was shot 2 days ago, so not part of the Fur bug "fix" thing
Its not a diamond for ppl to freak out over
the piebald fur is normal
its a normal deer
the hell
They are straight up harassing my account right now
do you have any other lodges other than that one?
No thatās the only one
or anything else in that lodge
go ask them for a pic of what they are talking about
Yeah I have a diamond ram and diamond white tail
weird
Is he in this server?
They wonāt be civil they just spam that Iām a hacker for shooting it and they are reporting me to everything
Yes he said he is in this server but will not give me his discord
So I decided to join and see what was going on
Is that not his discord right there?
It might be but thatās the only photo I have
well that username isnt here
Do you think they could have mixed you up with somebody else
They were in my server when I shot it
@santiago15 alt
š±
What?
just a dude
@Angurius gameing
I thought we found him š
Have you considered pulling an uno reverse and harassing him?
Yeah I told him to smile for YouTube š
Also we should remember the name so if we run into people saying ur hacking we will know whats going on
whats ur xbox gamertag?
You can send it in dms or not at all if you donāt want to
Or im assuming these guys are messaging you via xbox?
Add me
Yes they are messaging me on Xbox. I am new to the game and wanted to make sure no content I create for YouTube is against and video game policy
Nvm I have it on my phone and I added you
Shouldnāt be as long as you arenāt modding, and even that is allowed on yt although you will ruin your rep lol
No you can tell Iām not modding I barely know what Iām doing lol
Thank you all for taking time out of your day to confirm this for me. Now I do not have anything to worry about
Yeah if you donāt mind message me the their gamertags, and no problem always annoying when people are idiots for no reason
Aight cool
Not who I thought it might be but helpful nevertheless
Can you tell what groups they are in?
Cashyboi is the one who sent me the picture of him reporting me
aight
Groups?
try to get them to take pictures of your lodge and send it (or whatever they are referring to)
Alright awesome I can also invite anyone to my lodge as well I have no problem with that
You play on console?
xbobx groups? Might have the wrong terminology
Yes sir
Oh yeah??
rly?
Some people use that tag for the Microsoft Store, which is PC, hence me asking
š¤
yeah, and he has the same pfp as anguiris gaming
Thank you everyone!!!!!ā
Why would someone go out of their way to ruin my fun
Humans.
The most exciting part of our day is trolling/banning peak human stupidity lol
Yeah unfortunately
like that one time the person posted the traded fabled piebald great one
Wait that exist??
yea
šš» peak šš» human šš» smaorts šš»
Guy decided to ruin the validity of his trophy by doing that.
Should we ping him and see what he has to say?
We're aware of the issue, I don't see how pressing it further will help.
I cant directly ping them
Like I said I am welcome to anyone playing and coming to see my trophy lodge!
I fell in love with this game recently
good game
We all have
I havenāt
The why are you here 
because he canā¢ļø
