final current
I've noticed a possible bug/exploit(only for those that care maybe?)...
In the 'Hunting Profile' where it says how many shots fired etc, if you quit to desktop quickly enough after firing a shot/harvesting, the shot/harvest gets removed from the log/stats. I've checked the 'known issues' link and see that: 'Animal harvests are not being recorded correctly in the Hunting Profile.' is a known issue. Additionally, I have noticed the the three 'gimme' mission/tutorial animals at the start of Layton, Hirschfelden, and Medved do get recorded at hits(if you don't quit to desktop too soon), but never as harvests. Currently(testing) I can do the first mission and kill/harvest, get the rewards/completion, then if I immediately quit to desktop, and restart the game,
the shots fired/hit for that particular shot disappears, but the mission is still listed as completed. If I don't quit to desktop 'too soon', all hits harvests, aside from the aforementioned 'gimme' tutorial/mission harvests are all recorded correctly.
What I 'think' might be causing this: Server/Cloud synching. I suspect that the 'local' game and the cloud version haven't had time to synch and this could be what is leading to the discrepancies.
So to the DEVS: These are some things that I have noticed/experienced that could be contributing to the issue.
To the PLAYERS: Is this a known thing? Does this happen for others? Would you be willing to test it on your own game?
