#Red Dot perspective

This is such an annoyance I don't understand why it's been allowed to stay like this. For literally years.

The sheer number of shooter games that do red dots correctly is what makes this worse, why did the devs look at the red dots we have and think

"We should just use the same scope position for these, no one will notice"

Call of the Wild is the only game I have ever seen that screwed up red dot sights and it's absolutely astounding.

Take a page from Way of the Hunter and fix it.

Bump, this annoys me so much

I do agree a UI fix is needed with Sight picture. A qiuck fix would be a UI distance slider.

I was going to open a thread on that, gladly I found this one and hear people thinking the same way

#

since it sits towards the middle of the rifle, the current perspective makes it look like the eye is much too close to the scope, very unnatural feeling

#

Funny enough, they did the Marksman Exact sight justice, its placement and perspective is better

As one who doesn't have a handy example to look up in game, could someone explain to me in text what is wrong with the current option?

Red dot sights are not regular scopes, they don't magnify an image. A regular scope is designed to do it's job at a certain distance from your eye.
3-4 inches is typical distance.

Red dots, reflex, and holosights are different. They work at any distance but if you put them as close to your face as they are in cotw then you'll be getting hit in the face every shot.

The sight is perfectly distanced to break your eye socket and give you brain damage

The red dot sights in cotw are abysmal. The one on the .470NE is the best but you can't put it on any other rifle. Hopefully EW makes some changes to the FOV with scopes and fixes red dots in the process

The red dot for the King apex and the davani are completely fine imo, but the red raptor red dot thing that is in the base game is just weird

Idk if the strong wording and telling them to take a page out of a direct competitors book is the was to address this to devs. It's a great idea but geez; bit rude in the presentation ngl.

I do agree that EW is going to have to make from scratch reworks as they go if they are focused on a single title for the next several more years or it will be outperformed by future titles. Its not being mean its fact & they are aware of it. Jaxy has stated it multiple times they are limited to upgrade due to supporting older gen platforms. Once a decision is made they will likely upgrade the Ver. of the Engine to support new gen opening the door for advanced features. I give them a yr before there hand is forced to upgrade or design a 3rd title for the franchise. @hexed lark Related an FOV Slider would solve this issue when in 1st Person both idled & in aim mode.

also australia and sundarpatan are awesome maps much better than the ones before and hopefully they keep it up

#

in my opinion they shold just keep making better maps like australia nad nepal
make adjustments to gunplay like reddots animations and just making it more realistic

#

also backfill other maps cuz some are jsut too empty with species like some maps has 8 species
also actually fix bugs like instad of making new update realease big bugfix update cuz from my expierience
and from what i heards there is way to much of them

#

tho i dont know much about this stuff and devs cuz only about year ago i started to watch the hunter yt and joined
this server like 1 mounth ago and ladylegend about year or 2 ago even tho i started playing few years ago soo idk much about devs perspective and what players
really want

#

about bugs i hate and i know that alot of players have same opinion about bird bug where u cant spot them them
spooking for no reason and multiplayer modding

#

dont know how possible it is but maybe make it soo if u have more than X amount of rares diamonds and GO
on map it automaticly gets deleted form multiplayer. (also it depending on map cuz ofcourse revontuli would have
much more animal;s on map than other ones ofcourse

# hexed lark i mean true but im gratefull for them supporting older stuff i have gtx 650 and ...

Idk about pc hardware bc its a pain & expensive. With constant upgrading & Updates its not worth it which is why I play on console dont need an upgrade just a new unit. Still cheaper than a pc where you have to buy parts, update then buy software not to mention clearing cache & susceptible to viruses the list goes on. Yea consoles are limited but reliable without the added cost & hastle. But I am well aware PC's are superior & pack serious hardware which is why I hate cross-play with PC Players.

#

also somehow im able to play games like the hunter WT and big and realistic shooters on roblox with good enough settings
tho i understand why you would want console and idk about hate and war going in between console and pc players

😅 my point I mean if you have the know how all the more power to ya. But in EW's case PC issues is a whole can of worms on its own. But I stand that EW has a year to make waves with this title if they plan to keep players esp. if Ultimate Hunting delivers since it has 5 highly requested features ppl want day 1.

well the hunter i one of only games i can actually play on this 12 year old piece of crap but when i gete new componets i will 100%
try out way of the hunter and when it comes out ultimate hunting also i wonder how ultimate hunting realease will go and few mounths
after release wonder if it will drop cuz i feel like many players will stay on the hunter for 1 reason which is time they spent and throphys they have here also hopefully EW fixes it bugs and get actually good anticheat for these pesky modders

my issue is with forced crossplay on any pvp title. Pc's run faster with little to no latency & pc players use mods while consoles cant hense the cheating & whats worse you cant disable it & prevents you to play bc its online. The issue lies with hardware differences are not compatible to be on equal footing. Plus when mods/hacks are active it causes game performance issues causing bugs or crashes to occur. 80% of the time coders mask it so the anti cheat software wont detect it.

and knowing games industrys either ultimate hunting will be total crap and disaster in release or it will acutally deliver with everyting

I've been playing games for 30+ years and pc crossplay has ruined so many titles. I dont have issues with mods in general bc 70% are enhancments to the game itself or cosmetics then the 30%are game altering such as maps, equipment etc. But official game mods is what I rely on such as Ark, Minecraft, Starfield, Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Snow Runner etc.

true wish it would like pc players play againts plc players

used to be that way then hey expand to everyone which is perfectly ok on PvE titles ONLY with no PvP elements that I'm all for it or even private only sessions but never on public servers. So I can meet 1/2 way but it is an issue for years & pc has gotten so toxic & PvP aggressive I refuse. Xbox is just as bad these last 3yrs. CotW I cant even find ppl to hunt with bc all they want to do is Trade or Grind & gods forbid you shoot anything w/o approval.

But this is why I'm saying EW has a year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c85sAfH54V8 - Scheduled for release on PC in 2025/2026, Ultimate Hunting will later hit PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and the Nintendo Switch successor. A VR version is also planned. Hunting Sim 3 is also planned to release this year with similar features. Sry to say but these titles are literally touching on several feedback requests on day 1. & I'll give EW credit where its due CotW is 8yrs old and limited to what can be applied and I see it being supported for 2 more years for the 10yr anniversary. However with next gen titles going this far in-depth to detail its really hard for me to believe EW isn't already working on a 3rd franchise title with most of the communities requests in play on day 1 for a strong player return. They are well aware they are out matched and cant keep it up as much as they want to. I get both sides they want to keep player access and stay close to its community but on the business side they have to adapt or take serious losses. I'm looking long term not today or in a year but player impact is key to success in gaming bc we keep the lights on. So I am routing for EW to do some wild updates & keep up.

#

Yea but as i said if they gonna make 3rd title i really hope we can keep our progress

#

Cuz i spent 600 and probably more for IT to be all reset imma be angry same with other players that probably spent more time

Unlikely it'll carry bc it will be a new title. If they upgrade to new gen I'd suspect a cloud cache would but its hard to say since its per client Xbox, PS, & PC. So if they simply update CotW I'm pretty confident it'll carry. If its a brand new title entirely its New Game. It would be sweet if progress carried like Mass Effect & Tell Tale Titles. But my brother was really upset when he went from xbox to pc & the dlc's didn't carry despite CotW being listed in the PC pass from Microsoft which I dont agree with at all bc if its on both the Dlc's & title should carry. The saved data is understandable that it wouldn't but DLC's should instead of having to re buy them

hexed lark
#

True but i still Hope it will

#

Also i think some games did that before

chilly umbra
# hexed lark True but i still Hope it will

Gta was a big one that carried from Xbox one - Xbox S/X. Mass Effect carried from title to title, Dragon Age, & pretty much all the Tell-Tale titles carried from the previous one.

#

with that said if EW upgrades I'd like to believe the save data would convert & /or update as well. For TH:CotW atleast. If we get a 3rd franchise title were bk to square 1 with New Game. Unless for some miracle EW has a way to port it into the 3rd title and essentially expanding it like how Mass Effect & Dragon Age are but its highly doubtful. Though if they did It'd be awesome to see again bc its been years since any franchise carried like that.

hexed lark
#

I mean they could make new game as update if its possible

chilly umbra
#

but we got off topic from the thread but at the end of the day 🤞 EW will make &/or add drastic changes/features bc I dont really want to see it snuffed out w/o trying 1st. Just sucks bc its going to be make or break time moving fwd.
