Known Issues

AUDIO

  • There are currently various SFX problems affecting Snow and Canada Geese.

GAMEPLAY

  • Under certain conditions, animals may suddenly appear out of thin air when exiting a Treestand.
  • Pre-existing populations of Stubble Quail and Magpie Geese are scoring too high. New animals will appear with the correct new scores.
  • If the Zeroing Perk is active and you press “Use Skill” while a non-weapon item is currently your active item, when you next switch to a Weapon, Zeroing will have reset to default (mid-range) and will not show the current setting in the UI until Use Skill is pressed again.
  • Saltwater Crocodiles may be difficult to Spot from certain angles.

EQUIPMENT

  • Bears may be a bit over-zealous in their destruction of Box Feeders, particular when the player is resting.
  • .410 Slugs are only usable out to 100m.
  • Players must load their weapons before entering the shooting range, even though they have unlimited ammo once in the range.
  • All backpacks, regardless of size or color, have the same in-game model when seen on the player.
  • There are some minor accuracy issues with the Strecker SXS when using slugs and the reflex sight at long ranges.
  • Attempting to pick up the FOXPRO 360 while simultaneously activating the remote can result in you getting stuck in a non-existent menu. Bringing up the Map and Fast Travelling can get you out of this state.

DOG

  • The dog’s barks do not seem to be balanced properly based on the dog’s relative position.

MISSIONS

  • In a certain mission on Scotland, you are asked to spot a certain creature. Please refrain from attempting to spot it before you are told to do so, as spotting it in advance will block progression in the mission.
    -# Temporary fix: Restart your game and pick up the final track before spotting again.
  • Players may notice a new, completed Side Mission called “Test” when playing on the Sundarpatan Reserve. This is only a test.
  • If you're playing in French, approaching Piper’s Pit while on the Pipe Down mission will crash the game.
    -# Temporary fix: Switch to English while progressing through this mission.

MULTIPLAYER

  • Players may notice that animals visiting Game Feeders may not be displayed consistently between host and client players.

TROPHIES

  • The “Huddle Roe” multi-trophy does not properly display all of the deer.
  • Merriam Turkey “Dark Brown” and “Light Brown” plumages are incorrectly labelled as “very rare” in the Trophy Manager

UI

  • Species filters for trophies do not work correctly in non-English languages. All trophies will instead be placed under “Other Animals”. Filters for other properties (e.g. location, medal, etc.) will still work correctly.

WORLD

  • There’s a spot on Medved on the ice south of Zverolova Hill where you can fall out of the world.

GRAPHICS

  • You may notice a transparent, repeating column ascending into the heavens while placing a Ground Blind.

experiencing a new glitch, the map is not lining up correctly with the placement of lodges; you have to click off to the side and up a bit to actually use fast travel. this didnt happen last night but upon load up today has begun

heres footage, appears it fixes when you tab out and tab back in. not sure if anything like that will work on console

smoky cliff
#

I just came across a bug where I tried to delete a gold duck from the trophy manager and it deleted a piebald whitetail when I tried again it deleted an acromelanistic moose ,....... after reviewing the game footage I see now with the new system you have to select the animal you want to delete before pressing the deleted button, or it deletes the animal at the top of the list

There is an invisible wall outside of one of the Scotland outposts even though nothing is there to stop you from walking. It when you go to walk through a hole in the stone wall outside the outpost. Not at my computer ill update this when I can tell you which outpost

Game is crashing multiple times when launching. Sometimes it works sometimes it dont. After launching I have to alt tab out then back into the games main menu to be able to continue. In the lodge while pushing Q to remove mounts the player is whistling for the dog.

I placed a feeder in vurhonga yesterday. As soon as i filled it up, the game began to save about every three seconds. Due to me also closing the game it shred also the savegame. (You are not supposed to close the game while it saves, the game tells you upon every game start up... but if it keeps saving,... yeah,...) I could restore it from my psn cloud storage.
So a decided to remove the feeder again. We need a fix for this!

Placing a feeder and filling it up makes the game go crazy ... it constantly saves, so you cannot close the game safely. And it also wears out SSDs, by writing a whole GB (67MB savegame every 3 seconds, on PS5) every minute you play!... this is insane.

The bug is present since the feeders came out and was reported as a bugticket.

Please hard-limit the saving interval to once a minute or so (plus once upon going back to the main menue)

See here for more details: https://discord.com/channels/393040947006406657/1435229469093793822
Marked for a needed fix by many people.

Pseudocode: introduce an enable bit to the saving mechanism as a hard limit.
IF timeindex > lastsave.timestamp + 60 seconds THEN saving.enabled=true ELSE saving.enabled=false.
That would solve the issue permanently, indepently from all possible overwhelming saving triggers. It can be really easy implemented. No complex bug tracking, just a hard limit at about one or two minutes save intervall (and a single saving upon leaving to main menue). Easy fix... please implement.

Just gonna throw it out there that I was unable to trigger Full House side mission on PlayStation. I have triggered and successfully completed the mission of Xbox. I believe it may have something to do with the fact that I skipped the beginning cinematic, something I did not do on Xbox. I hope there could be a resolution and that I can somehow complete this mission on PlayStation. As it stands, I'll just assume the map has 9 side missions and that Xbox has a bonus one, keeps me sane and it's better than seeing a side mission on your screen that cannot be completed (looking at you cinnamon New England bears)

Dismantling a feeding magpie goose decoy (searching and sentry do not do this) forces you into photo mode for some reason, you can get out of it by pressing P at least.

In Xbox lodges, deleting trophies is glitched. When you select a trophy to delete and delete it, it will still be there and the trophy below that will get deleted instead. This lead to me losing 3 of my favorite trophies a dime mountain hare, a gold mela wood duck, and a gold brown hybrid canada goose.

This was devastating and I honestly dont want to play the game anymore, plz!!!! FIX THIS

not sure if it's been reported or not. since the Scotland update launched every time the game works like it should but when i close it down for the night and the next time i boot up the game my interface colors resets back to default colors. doesn't matter if its single player or multiplayer, it keeps resetting. so every time I reboot it I have to readjust the interface colors.

This is not something a Mod can handle, unfortunately.
I'm here to throw people into jail (timeout) when they act bad in the server :C

You can however send this and all information you have about:

  • PC or Console stats
  • what programs may have been running concurrently
  • what exactly happened
  • what your loadout was at the time of it happening
  • map location etc

to the support team in a ticket, my next message will have the tag to the website

The colour of my tracking particles is not saving after I close the game. I like to set the colour of my non-active track to green and the active one to red, but everytime I close the game and open again it's back to the default non-active white and active cyan.

Still having issues with the Scotland missions - Stag Night: for 4 IRL days the 'shoot crouching male fallow' refused to trigger after doing just that, switched over to other missions as active, and cpl days later, it suddenly completed - Cull Your Darlings: shot bager after 7pm and after 11pm, but the 'harvest a badger at night' doesn't complete until you shoot after 12pm so very nightly night???

My issue is that as soon as the new map dropped and I updated it broke the whitetail spawns on Askiy Ridge, I am getting no respawns at all and I have talked to a few others on discord that lost zones and they are not coming back either on the map. I had to move my grind to Revontuli to get respawns.

ducks are still way too strong
I watched this duck get shot from 105 metres and fly out of render, it "died" outside of render but since it was. out of render/migratory state it didn't process as dead until I shot it a second time like 5 minutes later.
Ducks should die within 10 seconds of being shot no matter how far away they were shot from, no matter how many pellets hit them, and no matter the gun. ducks die very quickly IRL and having them survive a bullet for this long is stupid

#

Adding onto that geese should die as quickly as ducks do (or just a little slower) because IRL they also die very quickly - not so much a bug as just an annoying thing that makes them able to fly out of the map and die where you can't get them :)

hey so uh.. the hunter cotw is refusing to open, it like opens up the window, but stays on a black screen, not changing from the screen, and during this, I cannot use the windows key to back out, only alt-tab

Does the Fallow deer warning call got bugged? It sounds like a whistle, before the update was sounding as intended.

Is it possible to get a statement from a community manager on that issue many players voted for: https://discord.com/channels/393040947006406657/1435229469093793822
It affects a DLC which we paid for. Issue created also as a bugticket months ago... since then silence and not even listed amongst known issues. We need a fix on that, cause it also already lead to corrupted savefiles and hardware wearing due to the game continously saving.

Can we please get a statement, that the issue is acknowledged and in the fixing pipeline? We paid for that dlc.

Please look into this, I don't have feeders but I want to get them - I'm deathly afraid of this issue though, my PC isn't that great anymore and with how expensive parts are I don't want to risk ruining any drives from the constant use of autosaves... I counted the other day and my game autosaved at least seven times in around a minute. It just. doesn't need to save this much

imo it should save once every 5 minutes, upon fast travel/swapping reserve/going to lodge, upon the death/harvest/taxidermy of an animal, upon entering a new region, upon unlocking a new point of interest/outpost/lookout tower/need zone, upon completion/progress in a mission, upon level up, upon exiting the shop (after buying items), and upon placing a structure

It is not just the cuomo. Many more are broken if you start a new game, while keeping your trophies.

It does mot depend on the spot, where you place the rifle. For the .22 zarza is broken and identifies as Vallgarda independently where i place it. There are more rifles broken in the lodge since I hit "New game"

bitter briar
# wheat aurora Please look into this, I don't have feeders but I want to get them - I'm deathly...

I agree. The game saves way to often (even without feeders placed!), thus reducing ssd lifespan already. But with filled feeders it goes crazy and writes (on ps5) 67MB very 3 seconds or so... you can easily calculate how this accumulates. I removed all feeders from my maps, as I won't ruin the lifespan of the ps5's built in ssd (which is used mandatory for saves), i can't replace.
Also caused by the constant saving you have a hard time finding a good moment to close the game without interupting a saving and thus corrupting the savegame. It happend to me (I had luckily a cloud backup)

Please repair that feeders dlc. We paid for it!

So I just shot a G1 wild boar, and taxed it, and had it in a multimount, but then when I dissassembled the multimount, it deleted him. Not sure what happened, but I would like to know if anyone else has had this issue?

#

It was in the boar boys mount, just to be clear

#

I have it on video too, if that's worth anything

junior trench
#

An Update: The Boar Boys Multimount is fully bugged. When dissassembling the mount, it WILL delete one of the trophies within. I've done some testing with this, and it seems like whichever boar is in the "bolt" position will be deleted if you were to disassemble the mount. DO NOT put any trophy that you don't want to lose in this mount for the time being. Will report back after more tests. Happy Hunting!

I mean, many people (about 20, which is a lot for the support section of this game on this discord server) are concerned about it. The bug has severe consequences for both hardware and savegame integrity. We deserve an answer. We asked more than once in this thread here.

Can we please get a fix on the broken lighting on the rifles on some maps? Here an example from scotland while walking up a hill in a dense vegetation in rain weather. There is no reason for the rifle to be this intensely lit from everywhere (through the ground as well)

A fix in the next content drop would be highly appreciated.

These effects happen not to all maps (e.g. Hirschfelden and Cuatro are fine). The worst ones are sundarpatan, revontuli and scotland. I guess more maps are affected. This issue needs a general check-up on all maps and fix, as it makes the rifles visually sting out and break the immersion completely. All shadows and reflections on the rifle are being killed completly....

Can we please get a fix on the broken rifle lighting on some maps in the next content drop, please?

Here another example of broken lighting (torr nan sithean) in comparison to a map with working lighting on the rifle (te awaroa).

Many maps have this broken overexposure on the users rifles: As far as I and my friends know: Torr nan sithean, revontuli, sundarpatan, askiy ridge. Maybe there are more.

Please fix this in the next content drop. Please. It is such an immersion breaker
