guns lost accuracy

[ember pebble]

Im on Xbox and I've noticed the I keep miss animals for Example i shot at a water buffalo at 100 yds and totally missed so I went to the rifle range and the guns are shooting super low.

[sick harbor]

have adjusted your zeroing?

[untold shale]

If you play without zeroing then pretty much every weapon in the game is messed up in this way currently.

[ember pebble]

I've been play since 2018 and never use zeroing I use mil dots

[sick harbor]

yeah thats probably the reason your shots arent hitting, use zeroing, it's a game changer

[ember pebble]

Never had a problem before the update

[ember pebble]

Yep I saw this earlier and commented on it thanks for looking out

[jade drift]

Yeah I have the same problem with the rifles shooting low.

[sick harbor]

so it is a genuine bug? it doesn't have anything to do with not using zeroing? I haven't played the game since last week

[ornate veldt]

Bro, it is a bug that is directly correlated to not using zeroing, just read. The dude said the rifles shoot low. I'm sure if he's been playing since 2018 with no zeroing then he's not stupid as to how the game work's

[jade drift]

Yeah so when not using the zeroing perk most rifles should be flat shooting between 150 - 200m
But at the moment, anything over 100m has a significant impact on bullet drop, which is not supposed to be the case.
Therefore if you aim where you usually would at 150m, without using zeroing, you will either hit low or shoot underneath the animal.

Hey yeah since the update the default zeroing is set to zero instead of medium range zeroing like it used to be, made a report about that too, a way to fix it for now is to use the zeroing perk

[ornate veldt]

I've noticed that, and I bet that's what the bug is correlated too, because when I log in I have to tap the button for my zeroing to activate now otherwise I'm not zeroed for any range i.e 0 like you said, they definitely broke something to do with zeroing in the update

This bug doesn't affect me but it's bad, hope to hear something about it being fixed soon @vagrant ridge @sly elm @broken cedar @royal spoke @sick harbor p

[potent zenith]

So glad I'm not crazy. Am having this same issue but thought it might've just been me

[hoary quiver]

No need to ping everyone, simply reporting gets issues seen. Of course tickets are the quickest and most efficient route!

Just an update, we had been investigating this issue and are currently working on a fix. In the meantime simply by unlocking, you do not need to activate, zeroing will fix this issue. Thank you for the heads up folks!

[sick harbor]

offtopic but hypothetically if we ever get bearded dragons in the game would there be a mission animal named Jaxy?

[hoary quiver]

I hope not! I'd be getting shot constantly! 🤣

[sick harbor]

fair enough ☠️

[lethal python]

I thought I was going crazy. Never used zeroing and have never had a problem. Sure on super long shots every now and then I would legit miss. But I'm missing shots here and there now at 100-150ft which I'm usually very accurate. Spending 31k cash and reseting perks to unlock a perk I simply won't use and taking away from my build is insane. Then having to spend that again when it's fixed.... Hopefully it's fixed soon.

[river garden]

The game is on sale now and the coming new players may all be having the aim problem. And it's not a small offset. It's huge. I hate the zeroing perk so I guess I have to hope for a sooner fix than a few months.

PLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEAAAAAASSSEEEEEEEEEEE

[gray girder]

ik this has been an issue for a bit now but today is the first day this has affected me. im within range. 80yds - 130yds and im either missing or not hitting where im aiming. i have the zeroing perk and it does not seem to help. i play through Steam.

[red gate]

Have you enabled the perk? It is not passive.

[haughty panther]

I play on playstaion and just today I shot at a water buffalo from 130 yards I zereod right and everything perfect shot it says I missed I shot it again still says I missed might be a problem on console?

[gray girder]

I sure do.

[azure ruin]

I'm not sure if this is new (I only learned the Zeroing skill after the patch), but the skill itself can cause the bug. If you accidentally try to use the skill while holding the binoculars, the zero distance setting will be "cleared". When you switch back to some weapons, you will see the zero distance indicator is blank.
You can fix this by simply using the skill again while holding the weapons, so it's not that bad. Still an annoyance though.

[lament basalt]

Hey. Could hunt club offer in game cash to help players reset their perks please?

[sick stump]

Any time frame for a fix? I am wanting to get back to bow hunting again. I really don't want to, or have the money to be switching perks around.

[dark flax]

it's a big disappointment, but the game got a lot better for me after I changed my character. I had to lose Focused Shot and a level of Full Draw, but I can actually play again so I guess it was worth it.

[tame solstice]

I noticed this after the Sundarpatan update. I am sure on my Zeroing.

[crystal niche]

Same here knew i wasn’t the only one, in all of my 4,300+ hours

[stark jungle]

Hi. I agree it's quite hard to play actually. The worst situation for me was with the crossbow and scope on it. If you want to try it, go to shooting range, set targets to 100m zeroing on 60m. For a good shot zoom at maximum, you should be between second and third dot. Keep your aim zoom back to minimum and shoot again. For me the arrow goes in the wall over the first targets position. @hoary quiver
