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.
#Excessive hunting pressure

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.
With a bow? Cause mid pressure is normal for guns unless you’re in a stand.
It’s not supposed to be that way. One shot with a gun is supposed to give low pressure. This bug started happening several months back
It’s always been you could only shoot 3 animals with a gun and a 4th creates dead pressure 1-2=mid 3=high and 4= dead
Yes, 4 is a dead zone. Up until a few months ago for me on PS5 one shot has always meant low pressure, gun or not.
1 = low
2 = mid
3 = high
4 = deadzone
Killing 3 animals has created dead zones for me as well
Weird on steam it’s always been 2 tiers of mid pressure then high and then dead, low was only achieved with bows and stands.
Definitely very weird that it’s different between platforms. Maybe one is bugged lol
Steam player and I for sure feel like it used to be low for one dead animal a while ago. I remmeber being super confused when it suddenly started showing medium pressure when I killed something
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.
