How i did this? Whenever they mass spawned i culled them in cycles in small numbers from each species taking lowest % 2-3 animals from each species then jump a year/cycle and repeat process climbing in genetic % until each animal species left on mass frozen group had like 15-20 highest fitness % at last age then just let them die off each species bear has the longest lifecycle so was last on groups.

Then i just kept repeating until mass spawn groups got smaller and smaller and at one point i just went 30 cycles continously whitout any culling logiing in and out of the game each 4-5 year cycle.

At this moment my game seems ok whit few maintenance of herds of same age wery few left.

Its a kind of pleasant cheating and experimenting you end up whit a pile of cash and xp to unlock half of the skills at least im at level 28 and 160.000 cash but doesn't matter for me no spoiler since i do moostly bow hunting only and i don't really care about the rest of the items.

So long story short im curious how long will last this "fix" for me im going strong since two days like this no issues and im realy checking the map all over constantly i have tnets on high mountain and hill topps and tent trawel and scout and also roam around whit the car constantly having a last tent and hunting tripod seting up at the car so i can spawn and continue where i left,the proces since its wery engaging and interesting the yield results upon exploring since herd fitness % went up considerably on all over the map and spoiler alert alse yield some rares that thankfully are not frozen because they are din different age group herds so wayt to age them to last year checking on them while scouting.

Hopefully wasn't a waste of time reading all this and real fix will be delivered soon to fix this gameplay braking major issue, it was fun and interesting for me at least to do it 😀 even if im not a fan and addept of cheating making things easy and especially im not a "grinder" neither that's why i play this game title series moostly (no offense to other games)

P.s what was interesting no rare animals were spawned in these frozen herds i find them all later on map in herds that wasnt frozen/ broken

Until then I'm having fun especially with the rare ones spawned

Wierd update same age groups still froze upon log out but probably upon new log in acting normally to a point since they go to their need zones and roam around normally not traveling to one hub point anymore where they mas pile up,rest of the map is normal groups of diffages in them.

Some still grazing whit new need zone on place seen last time and not spooking at all ,i don't know if its the same herd or a glitch since i culled 3 low% females from that group and now 3 females in same place age5 not spooking and have need need zone apeared .This is fun and interesting till fix will be implemented. Keep bugging them let's see what's happening, nex experiment i leave a same age buged herd untouched and continue herd manage the other one one two by each cycle to see what's happening. Wish the game had a diary/notebook that can be pulled up in game or even just in the menu to take notes,keep track of things by typing our own text and adding in game taken images trough photo mode, would be wery at hand and become a major feature especially whit land/reserve/management elements later to be implemented...wich is a kind of "animal management " going on whit this activity that some of us are experimenting "thanks" to this major bug .Maybe could be transformed into a gameplay feature if done cleverly...
