#Excessive hunting pressure

I had hit new game about a month ago and today loaded on to Askiy Ridge for the very first time. As I was traveling to the cabin for the beaver feaver misson I was attacked by wolves. I shot and killed both wolves and opened my map to see it created a dead zone of hunting pressure. These were the only 2 animals I killed.
I shot a mountain goat further away but the hunting pressure seems to be normal.

What platform and model is this?

Also, I have heard of this on PlayStation as well. May have experienced it myself once or twice. PS4/PS5.
From what I remember:

  • shot 2 geese on revontuli, created a dead zone. Went to find the animals and there wasn’t even blood nor bodies anywhere to be found. Had the bloodhound try to track them down, still no luck.
  • experienced this anecdotally on a few maps- shooting 1 animal and getting mid pressure, shooting 2 and getting high pressure- but I didn’t think much of it…

…until a friend pointed out it was also happening to them. I think @tight dome (apologies for the ping homie) has posted about this before. Might be able to add some more insight.

For what it’s worth, I remember this happening more on PS4. It’s been a while since I’ve noticed anything similar on my PS5.

Just occurred again. PS5 multiplayer, on Yukon. A friend shot one lvl 8 grizzly bear yet it shows mid pressure instead of low.

Definitely very weird that it’s different between platforms. Maybe one is bugged lol

Idk guys every guide I’ve found where they shoot a single animal with a gun outside a stand the pressure shows up as mid (just a few examples from different times but you can find more examples on YouTube)

#

Course the 5 year vid doesn’t say it’s mid pressure cause the label wasn’t a feature then but the opacity is still the same.

Hmm this is odd for sure. Those look like Xbox/PC controls, too. Not sure if it’s different on each platform but could be. I’ve only experienced this on PS4/5. The other folks I’ve talked to who experience this same issue are on PS as well.
