Bc he send the same and then he deleted it

So after the update once I complete a run of all my zones should I just wait 15 mins the reset the timer?

whatever you think might work

try it

Last night I did that and it seemed to work idk how accurate it may be tho

potent wing
north nova

#

They were respawning the same

north nova
#

Do you have any other grinds set up?

#

I know CCs were testing things out - and thats all fine and dandy

#

but they have micromanaged their HM, if you will

#

so to see results coming from a non CC is a good take, I think.

potent wing
#

Yea I have every g1 grind set up

potent wing
north nova
#

Well like think about it, ibuy and scarecrow eat breathe live their grinds yknow?
Versus other grinders (non CC players) who maybe haven't gotten on a first name basis, invite to the family barbecue with their animal pops :p

#

going to grind some fallows today looking forward to how it turns out

daring kindle
potent wing
#

To proof that I spawn stuff since people don’t think I do

#

Such as some streamers

#

But there is no point to post about the same rack for a whitetail over and over again

#

So I don’t post if I get the same stuff over and over again such as same whitetail

potent wing
#

Atleast 2 a run maybe more 5s

#

And I’m only shooting about 15 a run

pliant oak
#

im currently doing reds then onto fallows

#

so will check in a minute

covert dawn
#

For the animals that have been respawning normally for some people, has that been consistent across everyone who has tried it out or has it been different for different people?

#

As in are the same animals respawning normally for everyone or only some people

pliant oak
#

it will take a little time and for some it will be different because they used to use the go back to menu trick

#

nothing has changed respawn wise only tigers

#

so it shouldnt effect any other than tigers

#

reds seems to be working fine

frozen pike
#

wsg everyone

pliant oak
#

now for fallows

frozen pike
#

@pliant oak Is it smart to wait a week or two to let the grinders figure it out?

pliant oak
#

only thing might need tweaking is your tent locations

#

mines always been at 250m anyway so not had to move anything apart from tigers which i will have to redo

#

even tigers you can still drop on top of them.

#

its just they will go insta aggressive and attack or flee

potent wing
#

Since I have to move my tents

daring kindle
#

It’s easier now for tahr

pliant oak
#

thats it for red deer rest is normal

#

PlayStation trying to get diamonds and great ones I have killed many of them I am very good at the game and I would like someone who has killed at least 1 great one

daring kindle
#

Didn’t know you could crank 90s in it

pliant oak
#

9th diamond of the 9th fallow and its a big choco

#

another diamond at side of it but testing respawns.

#

so shoot one at a time

frozen pike
#

bro my bear arent showing up in their zones 😠

#

got 3 8s not showing up today

deep terrace
frozen pike
#

i just tried moving my tents around

#

and i couldnt find a spot anywhere for tents/tripods

pliant oak
#

just done 3 days fast forward time. after killing two fallows.

#

close game after each one day forward

#

then change time again. it took 3 days for two respawns to come back. the previous 2 fallows i shot were level 4s

#

they respawned on the 3rd day as diamonds

#

now doing same again just shot 2 fallows. fast forward one day. closing game go and check spawns for respawns

#

see how long it takes this time

#

it might not be tied to in game time this is just a experiment

#

prior update most respawns fallow wise are back within a day normally 2 max

bleak pond
#

my respawns are fine, i figured it out

pliant oak
#

so my 2nd run went like this...2 shot. first day fastforwarded close game. straight after fastforwarding time. then launched game checked for respawn. none.

#

2nd day. didnt shoot any more fast forwarded time. waited whole of drink zone time 1200 -1300 closed game rechecked and 2 had spawned back

#

so it maybe just respawns take 20 - 30 minutes of actual in game time playing to come back

cobalt salmon
#

tbh right now im setting up my Moose grind on Yukon, and im thinking that the new system will only be a pain once i isolate the shooters to 6-7 lakes, as of now too many spots to check and cull down to lvl 2's or 3's with lvl 2 racks

storm oasis
#

Hey does any one want to hunt bengal tigers with me

mental kayak
#

No, you smell

#

#

No, I don't. How would you even know?

#

#

šŸ‘ƒšŸ¤®

storm oasis
#

All right. What's your real name then?

manic rover
mental kayak
crude spindle
pliant oak
#

not if you just fast forward time and close game

#

i think its you just got to be in game for a certain amount of actual time

#

then respawns happen

manic rover
#

It was working for me most of the time

pliant oak
#

ive been testing it just shooting two deer at a time until they respawn

#

closing game doesnt seem to help

#

which makes sense as the main menu exit was fixed too

manic rover
#

But I’m on console so it might be different

pliant oak
#

as it would be just same thing

#

doubtful would be the same

manic rover
#

I will keep looking

pliant oak
#

yeah thats all we can do

manic rover
#

It worked a little yesterday

pliant oak
#

try things see what works

manic rover
#

I will share info with you

pliant oak
#

1 level 4 shot this time. 1255 in game just going to wait 30 minutes in game see if it respawns back.

pastel geyser
gritty tendon
pliant oak
#

so you cant do it any more to force instant repsawns

#

or something similar

gritty tendon
#

so why would they have to bother fixing it if it was all just placebo?

#

EW really isn’t making sense with a lot of their choices unless there’s something i’m missing

pliant oak
#

what i know now is the respawn doesnt seem to be effected by fast forwarding of time. just stay in game play normally and your respawns will happen perfectily normal

#

i shot one fallow a while ago. collected it. level 4. stayed in game 20 real life minutes closed game rechecked zones. one diamond in its place.

gritty tendon
#

i don’t have to worry about waiting for respawns

pliant oak
#

so its nothing to do with fast forwarding time. just it takes time for respawns to happen. so just grind away normally and your respawns will work.

gritty tendon
#

i just kept my game on previous version

pliant oak
#

no need to.

#

just play normally it will work.

#

it does work

gritty tendon
#

it can work well for some but i’ve seen other that say it’s not working at all for them

pliant oak
#

which is nice to see also means dont have to waste loads on fast forwarding cash wise

pliant oak
gritty tendon
#

so until then and until i get my next tahr and tiger trophies i want i think i’ll just keep it unupdated to be safe

pliant oak
#

probably not.

#

but whatever you have fun. enjoy yourself. šŸ˜‰

gritty tendon
#

you too šŸ‘

bleak pond
#

i’m getting respawns fast

#

just almost normal.

sweet spear
#

juggle a few different species to kill time, y'all will be fine lol

bleak pond
#

^ that’s one way

next arrow
gritty tendon
#

would also be terribly inefficient for any grind

#

and if there’s anything about this game that makes me insanely bored it’s inefficient grinds and poor respawns

potent wing
daring kindle
#

Jaxy said it

gritty tendon
acoustic cedar
#

Wait

#

How is it easier for tahr

#

I hadn’t shot any since my last GO (except a couple females)

gritty tendon
#

it’s not really from what i’ve heard from others

#

but

#

there is a work around for the whole tent thing so i would assume using that would make it ā€œeasierā€

acoustic cedar
#

Oh

I see

#

Welp imma go hunt leopard cats innit

They get your hopes up Mel šŸ˜‚

acoustic cedar
#

Nahhh I’m good on tahr for now lol

I need leopards and stuff

wooden junco
#

They hate me. I need to train my retreiver to befriend leopards and bring em back for me

acoustic cedar

I need a better dog for Nepal but I would probably mistake it more for an animal and shoot at it so maybe not

terse wyvern
#

Tahr honestly are just as much of a pain as before except I can't spawn next to them

#

My respawns and all are the same

They weren't showing up for awhile cause I measured in yards instead of meters with my tent placement šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø

I know it’s literally only been a day but y’all are efficient…any new legitimate grind methods? On stream Jaxy said grinding is as good as ever. How is that possible with the respawn timer being so long now? Unless he just meant it works but is way slower than before. I’m scared to resume my moose grind I’m 455 in haha.

I think my little female mela was the best I've got on the map lol, haven't run across anything else of interest for snowies

I had a GO question, as I haven't gone for one since my Red Deer - what do folks consider the best map for Whitetail grind? I know I could look up videos but I've stopped watching most content creaters for various reasons so not sure where to start lol

magic hatch
# unkempt tapir Layton

I meant in general it varies but I wanna say average on Layton is around 60 (you can have more or less varies on player)

magic hatch
#

But I’d still go with the map you prefer there isn’t really a ā€œbadā€ whitetail map. (Maybe Mississippi because of the gators/brush)

Thank ya - I did Cuatro for my Red Deer and it went well, be nice to get some whitetails finally

I do like New England a lot but yeah the less zones to manage the better - it's good times getting those herds just right but a ton of work haha. But could be worth scouting, appreciate the opinion!

What do i do if I don’t have enough Main zones to grind off of for the fallow grind

vernal raft
#

How long do bears take to respawn?

modern dune
#

the new change wonkified animal respawns entirely

#

could be as little as 15 minutes of IRL time spent in game

#

could be as much as 2 hours of IRl time spent in game

#

ya just gotta wait and hope the house of RNG dealt you good cards

vernal raft

I’m god so basically bear grinding atm is pointless unless I have hours

modern dune
drowsy oak
pliant oak
#

i spawned 5 diamonds in 3 runs

#

i found that 15 - 20 mins no fast travelling of time the respawns just happened normally

#

so just do your normal runs and they will respawn normally

warped needle
#

is it 15 mins from last shot deer?

#

my run takes 15 mins atleast

#

should they spawn by the time im done or 15 m after

pliant oak
#

yeah from collection

#

i literaly sat on a fallow body. waited. then timed it collected and twenty in real life minutes passed it had respawned back

#

as a diamond

#

no fast forwarding of time

#

in game so its just play and they respawn.

#

after maybe a certain time. i will just keep trying reduce backwards.

#

so yeah most peoples run by end of it they should be respawning for most people

#

closing game has no effect

Literally nothing besides bear spawn for me unfortunately

you have to just do runs and stay in

should be spawned back by time you finished a run

Damn that's annoying

Id rather just focus on one creature

#

Idk I'm just hoping they revert the change

pliant oak

well if you even do a short run or grind you still doing 15 mins

so by then your respawns are back

the respawn is the issue

#

I think im gonna quit the game, i play since 2019 and i have spend many thousands of hours playing this game. I most enjoyed grinding because of the trophies i get, which are not possible to spawn hunting casually. I was able to spawn 11 GO but now i cant grind anymore because i cant wait 20 minutes for respawns.

#

20min respawns is not problem.. but herd management setup is very hard now...

#

moose grind works anyway

visual glen
pliant oak
#

i killed 12 fallow yesterday and 5 diamonds spawned off them

#

fast forwarding time doesnt help respawns just playing does.

#

also closing game doesnt help get respawns back either

gritty tendon
#

i'm seeing too many contradicting things from people to think that respawns haven't been changed

pliant oak
#

you just gotta play as it was designed and respawns work

#

well i was testing by killing one animal and all the varibles for the last two days

gritty tendon
#

i think maybe even though it's said that they weren't changed that maybe them changing tigers spawning somehow has effected other animals

pliant oak
#

the only thing that was consistant and works is just playing and collecting animals and then they respawn after 15- 20m

visual glen
#

Im fine with them making tigers respawn after a certain amount of time, but why every animal, it was more fun when u didnt have to wait for 20 min

pliant oak
#

no its only tigers as said i killed 12 fallow deer 5 diamonds respawned

#

they didnt respawn if i only fast forwarded time

gritty tendon
#

15-20 minutes is a long time

pliant oak
#

not really

#

how long is a run of yours grinding

#

you must play 15m a run

gritty tendon
#

my tahr rn are at 7-8 mins a run

pliant oak
#

so double it up

but i'm also playing on the last version

no

pliant oak
#

so you havent tried it

gritty tendon
#

won't be until something gets changed

pliant oak
#

this is the problem

gritty tendon
#

i don't want to try it as of now no

visual glen
#

For example my fallow run takes 5-7 min and i would have to destroy my hm to not waste a huge amount of timw

pliant oak
#

if you havent tried it you cant know

gritty tendon
#

why would i want to try something different when this already works great for me

visual glen
gritty tendon
#

when i see that so many are having problems

pliant oak
#

but how can you say somethings broken if you havent tried it ?

gritty tendon
#

i'm basing it off of what others have said

pliant oak
#

this is the problem and how its become so big of a issue. many didnt even try it first

gritty tendon
#

i don't know for sure that it's broken

pliant oak
#

well trust me just try it

gritty tendon
#

but to be it seems like somethings not quite right

pliant oak
#

it works still

gritty tendon
#

i will try it eventually

#

but not until i get the trophies i'd like from tahr and tigers

indigo fractal
#

is this a troll rack?

visual glen
#

Yes

hidden pagoda
#

yep

pliant oak
#

yeah common troll rack

#

you get two main ones really

pliant oak
#

but may go up to a diamond though on respawn

hidden pagoda
#

they take like 40 minutes

indigo fractal
#

Dang

#

The first nine I get to stack is a troll

pliant oak
#

but whitetail for some reason seem to be slower

#

maybe they were always this way designed but people so used to main menu exit

#

that now you cant do it that it seems wrong

#

we will see

indigo fractal
#

I might still stack him

#

Nah nvm

pliant oak
#

shoot it will probably go diamond or back to mythical

indigo fractal
#

i shot him, bouta go check what he makes

#

Yup , troll

#

Let’s go, my red deer respawn after like 5 minutes

full cave
pliant oak
indigo fractal
#

It’s just the main menu thing being gone

pliant oak
#

the problem is some people dont like the changes and some havent even tried the update

#

also many did the main menu trick which has been patched so have to play differently now.

#

ive tested my respawns and got them working fine

full cave
indigo fractal
#

Only half the time my males respawn for red deer

pliant oak
pliant oak
#

thats how we will find out

indigo fractal
#

Yeah

full cave
indigo fractal
#

I’ve been trying to figure out how to find a good compromise for this update

pliant oak
#

which some obviously arent happy about

indigo fractal
#

Dang the nine came back as a 5 šŸ’€

full cave
#

It is confusing though, main menu was stated as an unnecessary placebo effect for respawning

pliant oak
#

unless it went elsewhere the 9

#

it would only go to a diamond a go or mythical

#

depends on the shooters you shot

#

or space

indigo fractal
#

I doubt it, I would’ve only had 1 male in that zone but I had two

full cave
#

But something menu related made it faster. Why and how

indigo fractal
#

Unless it switched out

pliant oak
pliant oak
indigo fractal
#

Yeah that’s what I think

full cave
indigo fractal
#

All my respawns are coming back really small

full cave
pliant oak
#

closing game did same too.

#

not now though

full cave
pliant oak
#

its a new update we just gotta play learn adapt

full cave
pliant oak
#

fast forwarding time also doesnt change respawns. so i will just do two runs on fallow

full cave
#

Or just keep running it over and over and respawns just keep trickling in

#

@pliant oak ^ does that work for you?

indigo fractal
#

Boutta go check out a like I haven’t been to yet

#

Totally forgot red deer can spawn there

#

I think

#

Yeah there’s a zone here

#

I’m not sure if there’s males or not but there is

#

Yup this zone is shootable

pliant oak
#

my fallow run take about 10 mins

#

thats not a full run only half

#

so change time finish whole run the respawns back

full cave
pliant oak
#

right lets go do some more tiger hunting see how they are today

frozen pike
#

Why is shooting down bear the hardest thing ever

#

I’ve been trying to hm for 3 days

#

4 now

#

And then my mains keep bouncing

#

Tough time tough time

gritty tendon
frozen pike
#

They have stopped now

#

But i dont know

#

Just how ever many stay in my zones lol

gritty tendon
#

sometimes you might have too many

#

idk how many everybody else’s 4 lakes would hold consistently but mine only held 9 with a bouncer at a close lake being 10

pliant oak
#

some lakes ponds areas just have bouncer areas

#

once you hunt the areas alot you tend to know

patent drum
#

I got a 245-291 initial spawn heart rack for red I’m still doin my hm but what do y’all think it’s scoring?

pliant oak
#

without seeing it could be anywhere in the range

#

low scoring ones tend to be the ubend diamond racks

#

v shaped racks can be high 250s to 270s

#

normally 260 plus

#

all my 270 plus red diamonds have never come from the heighest estimate either

serene basin
trail thunder
#

does hunt club work or is it down or something?
there arent any challenges

atomic mica
#

Does anyone have tips for hming moose solos

pliant oak

if its a level that needs shooting just shoot it

mellow marlin
#

So the respawns gonna change

gritty tendon
frozen pike
#

husky do you have a go bear?

gritty tendon
frozen pike
#

is leaving 4s fine?

#

for exteriors

gritty tendon
#

yes

#

leaving 4s is what you should be doing

frozen pike
#

ive shot down like all of mine to 4

#

and im getting close

gritty tendon
#

leave everything 4 and under

frozen pike
#

but new bears randomly show up at lakes big

gritty tendon
#

hmm

#

sometimes things get stuck in the respawn pool

frozen pike
#

ah ok

#

ive been doubting if im doing it right

gritty tendon
#

never had it happen with bears though

#

so

#

that's weird

frozen pike
#

because these bear swap lakes so much

#

for me

gritty tendon
#

yeah i've seen a few people have more trouble with bears bouncing since the pop reset

frozen pike
#

do you really NEED hm for bears?

#

like ik you dont ever need hm

#

but like is it a species that like its way better or nah

#

like i have a TON of fours but not fully i have a few 5s and stuff

gritty tendon
#

i used HM for all my bears but had a variety of results

#

first bear was in the ball park of around 4.5-4.7k

frozen pike
#

with strict HM?

gritty tendon
#

2nd was like 3400+

#

uhh

#

not super strict

frozen pike
#

i have noticed that bears are easily grindable tho

gritty tendon
#

i didn't crack down super hard on it till i started using 4 lakes method

frozen pike
#

ah

gritty tendon
#

then i started having a bunch of short grinds

#

and then i had quite a few mid length grinds

#

so

frozen pike
#

so on the 4 lakes you went strict?

gritty tendon
#

i think it's all mostly rng

frozen pike
#

yeah

gritty tendon
#

i shot most things down to 4

frozen pike
#

but i could start my main grind without have like an Ibuy hm level?\

gritty tendon
#

kept some 5s and there's even a few 6s on the map if i remember right

frozen pike
#

okay ood

#

good*

#

appreciate this info

#

i really think ill be fine wit the hm i got rn

#

i have one zone i need to shoot one down with

gritty tendon
#

you don't really need to take HM to an extreme to get good GO results most of the time it seems

frozen pike
#

nice

gritty tendon
#

just take it to a point that you like and are seeing trophies consistently with enough to keep the grind good and interesting for yourself

frozen pike
#

okay, because i just went to my main and grinded a lil and spawned a 9

#

but saw many 4-5-6 too

#

but im also stacked rn

#

like i have2 9s, and like 6-7 8s stacked rn

gritty tendon
#

i think it comes down to the fact that bears don't have that big of a population compared to herd animals

frozen pike
#

yeah

#

i think im gonna just go and see what happens

#

if it goes bad it goes bad šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø but im gonna grind until i get one since my tahr got ruined

gritty tendon
#

i hope my tahr pops soon

#

will be at 3k within the next hour

Potential SR like 25 kills into G1 Bear grind

#

8 Mythical Cinnamon 22-24 estimate

#

Not likely but who knows

#

Is that even a SR?

as far as we know nobody has gotten a mythical dime black bear

tiny kestrel
#

Sometimes I think about grinding black bears

#

Then I immediately remind myself that it has never gone well in the past for me lol

frozen pike
#

I have 5 dimes already

tiny kestrel
#

My issue always was losing respawns

#

In every one of my grinds

#

Then I find out that it was an intentional change for them to hop zones

fresh sinew
#

2 hours and still nothing

visual glen
pliant oak
#

but thats gotta be playing. not fast forwarding time or closing game just playing for that time in real life

crude spindle
#

How are you feeling about all this Ron?

fresh sinew
pliant oak
#

well i understand how some feel but my own opinion is my respawns are working..it does effect grinding but not so i cant do it

#

tigers were too easy im not bothered about that change at all

#

i guess we will see from players feedback over the coming weeks.

#

just hope people actually try first before saying its broken

#

when respawns do actually work if you play normally

#

not as quick as main menuing but they work

pliant oak
#

all respawned

#

within 15 - 20 minutes

#

shooting only one at a time

#

out of the 12 shot 5 respawned as diamonds

crude spindle
#

I agree on tigers

wet dew
crude spindle
#

I think the respawn changes are fine long term if they address rarity issues

# pliant oak when respawns do actually work if you play normally

I play normally but rotating through 10-12 zones only takes 10-12 minutes since I’ve gotten so used to it. I just don’t see why they felt the need to fix the ā€œbugā€ when it’s been in the game for so long and they have definitely been aware of it

pliant oak
#

its just many people main menu or quit the game

#

so respawns were the same as always its just many played differently

plush gull
#

Like i said it takes me 10-12 minutes to rotate so my respawns aren’t there at the end so i would usually main menu.

pliant oak
#

i used to close the game

#

so just gotta adapt

#

play to how it works

plush gull
# pliant oak play to how it works

I get that but don’t you find it odd that they say they accept the grinders in the community then randomly take out one of the biggest things that helps people grind and revert the tent changes all in one fell swoop? I agree that tents shouldn’t be able to be put on top of animals but when they fix the main menu ā€œbugā€ in the same patch it seems like they are trying to annoy grinders

pliant oak
solid anchor
#

main menuing being fixed wouldn't be as bad if animals respawned faster

pliant oak
#

as said it will be interesting to see what the feedback is over the next few weeks and if anything will change. its obviously being monitored

#

so best thing to do is make constructive posts

solid anchor
#

i could care less though, i only main menued so animals went back to being calm after being spooked

covert dawn
#

Yeah that aspect of it still works great, do it at the end of a run and as long as its been 15 minutes your respawns are back in their zones

plush gull
solid anchor
#

i don't even grind but tents spooking is really a pain

#

i'd rather have them not render in

#

that or lower the spook radius

#

100m would be more acceptable

plush gull
covert dawn
#

Zaggi posted a workaround to the tent changes already

covert dawn
#

Theyve been working for me and have allowed me to keep some of my best zones that id otherwise not be able to use

#

Just check his YT

frozen pike
#

6 dimes through 143 kills for bear isn’t bad is it?

covert dawn
#

Thats very good, especially if youre not doing HM

frozen pike
#

Well I have HM

#

but they keep bouncing to the those two exterior and respawning big and taking forever to bounce back and making my respawns small

covert dawn
#

It could be better then, how many are you rotating on ish?

frozen pike
#

Tbh I didn’t even count

#

I just been blasting

covert dawn
#

Estimate

frozen pike
#

Like 12-14

#

Wait

covert dawn
#

Oh ok

#

Yea you got it set then

frozen pike
#

Like 11-13 mb

covert dawn
#

Hang on I got a question with the bears

#

If you could maybe help

frozen pike
#

Okay

covert dawn
#

When I tried setting up my grind for them on they keep bouncing to completely different parts of the map it feels

#

Idk how to keep them in the northwest

frozen pike
#

They are bouncing out of the four mains and going to other lakes than the two?

covert dawn
#

Yea

frozen pike
#

Hmmm

covert dawn
#

Ive done the grind 3 times before without an issue and idk what theyre doing now

frozen pike
#

Yeah i dont know sorry

#

This is my first time with them

covert dawn
#

Alr then

frozen pike
#

Sorry

covert dawn

Yea theyre not too bad once you get the hang of it

I use the 4 lake method , it's a bit of work at 1st but the rewards are great, you need to swap out all females and small bears ( level 4 and lower) with bigger bears on your exterior lakes, once you have this done and start rotating you will get a lot of bouncers and they can bounce to any part of the map, you need to try stay on top of these, go out and find them as soon as you think you have one , collect every kill even if you make a bad shot track it down , if you don't you cannot spawn a g1 from that bear ,
