TruMoose is out, get yourself a 9.2 GB patch so you can have beautiful moose! e: oh god this is the kind of game where an update means it redownloads the entire game so it went from 30~ GB on my laptop to 60~ GB and I can't have that, I need that space for ffxiv. Had to uninstall and I'll reinstall soon, but ughhh unoptimized updates... StrixNebulosa fucked around with this message at 13:17 on Aug 1, 2019 |

I had played 30 hours on Layton Lakes, never having gone to any of the other reserves. Last night I went through and played a bit of each of them and I'm really fuckin impressed. This game is amazing. The Savannah is probably my fave. Also got a diamond moose on the yukon, hopefully trumoose doesn't gently caress it up in the trophy lodge :P

Weapon Pack 3 is out and its $3.99 or $2.99 if you get the bundle and already own all the dlc in it. The air rifle looks like its gonna be a fun time plinking deer, the 30-06 is probably just a straight up replacement for the 7mm/.45-70 and the .22 pistol is gonna be great for "I Need a gun for every animal!!!" plus it looks fantastic

I think I'm burning out on this game. Did a bunch of missions and they were actually pretty rewarding, but some are just a slog, and - occasionally - seem broken. I'm on one where I need to kill a red deer in rotwald, a fallow deer in Hirschfeld, a bison in Rinderland, and a wild boar in that other district. Spent about two hours before I realized you need to apparently fast travel to a district before the completion conditions go active for that district. Since there doesn't seem to be a way to track partial completion in missions (?), I now have to trial and error every one of the four parts of the mission because I didn't track my own progress. In any other game, no big deal, in this game, that means hours of effort. Which translates into turning an entire gaming session into a chore unless you quit the main mission line and do something else. And "something else" can mean easily botching up to an hour of effort by missing a perfect shot for a rating. All in all, it's just starting to kill my motivation to play this otherwise pretty as hell game. And then out of nowhere, I'll build a hunting stand, and a glitch from the instantly self-erecting stand will launch me 200 yards straight into the air flying half a mile across the district before making me fall through the ground into the black void due to what I assume is an excess of collision velocity and I'll just sit there dying of laughter for a solid minute. I think I'll look for mods or cheats to gently caress around with the game a bit before putting it down until another content patch and then start on a new reserve. gently caress all thus shrubbery for real, y'all. The noise level on Hirschfelden is killing me. Duzzy Funlop fucked around with this message at 19:55 on Aug 5, 2019 |

Has it been mentioned before that this game needs some kind of futurey alien hunting mod/expansion? I was playing with a friend last night and the whole time we were hypothesizing a Blood Dragon style version of this game with crazy future hunting guns and aliens with weirdass weak spots that you actually need to learn where to shoot. Either that or stealth patch in a Predator thing. They'd never do it because why would they but goddamn it'd be cool to have the Predator stealthing around if you had no idea it was in the game.

theHunter: Primal is a dinosaur island version of the game. I think they stopped developing it or something though. Never played it.

Interested to hear if the shotgun fix worked. I really wanted to like shotguns but they were so ineffectual. I did manage to track down a deer I accidentally shot with .410 birdshot one time though lol. There must be a minimum damage factor. I’m also curious about the improved blood splatter description and what that means.

The problem was mostly with buckshot. Buckshot would basically give no integrity because too many "shots" would hit the target. Its been fixed now as far as I can tell:

Yeah the main issue was it counted every pellet against the integrity on Deer. The other thing I feel is an issue is that buckshot has abysmal penetration even at very close range so why should I not just use a pistol at that point? I had to check so 12 Gauge buck has the same penetration (5) as .22lr but (0) expansion compared to (10) for the .22. Hub Cat fucked around with this message at 02:40 on Aug 21, 2019 |

My use of buckshot tonight was rather effective, it doesn't have a lot pen, sure, but the multiple hits causes massive bleeding. Deer don't run very far after having their sides blasted open. Of course a rifle is probably still better in the end, but if you're on a weight budget the versatility of slugs/buck/birshot is nice. Another thing I tried tonight was using soft point ammo. In the past I'd always used the poly tips on every gun cause more penetration is more good, right? Well, you put a soft-point into a critter's lung from the side and holy poo poo that thing drops fast. Poly tips with a lung shot would usually cause "medium" bleed rates and drop them decently quick, but a soft-point into the lung causes high bleed rates and just loving drops the things in a few seconds. I need to try them out more, but it seems if you put a soft into the "boiler room" and you're gonna gently caress them up good. Forget going for frontal heart shots with soft-points though. Also got a nice prize tonight too:  Not the most impressive rack, sure, but hey, my lodge is depressingly empty and a) its a buck b) its piebald c) it has more than a pair of twigs sticking out of its head Galaga Galaxian fucked around with this message at 06:41 on Aug 21, 2019 |

Aaah. I was using the 20g slug on pretty much all deer. And I figured my lack of integrity was from my rabbit hunting technique of sprinting around, hearing a thump, finding their food plot, then sitting and waiting, reading the forums and listening to jazz till they showed back up

Ugh, what a night. First I get a 940 Blacktail and a 941 Moose, then I gently caress up the shot on what would've been a diamond Whitetail.   My only diamonds are still just a rabbit and a duck.

It was funny though, the whole time I was stalking, I was like "are you a morph, or a texture error?" I spotted the herd from 400 yards and had to stalk closer in to confirm that it was infact a huntable animal, and closer still to get a good bead on them.

I picked up Classic since they dropped the subscription thing and I've actually been having a good time playing around with it. So far I've only been hunting elk and white tail with the single shot twelve gauge but I prefer being able to lure animals to an ambush spot and that has worked well in Classic. I feel like Call of the Wild is me wandering around hoping to stumble across need zones while I come across a bajillion old tracks from animals I am not necessarily hunting.

It is a good chill game about relaxing and killing animals, I agree. There needs to be some component of getting the deer back to camp, finding a butcher that will process it, and the disappointment when you get back two backstraps and a pile of ground from someone else's deer that was gutshot and left in the sun for a few days.

Failing to do so will result in a reduced medal rank. The trophy rating is entirely dependent on the trophy of the animal : horns, antlers, weight, etc. and the scoring method is unique to each individual species. If you look at the ‘Animal Classes Diagram’, you can see the minimum score required to achieve a given medal for each species.

Scoring 2.0 is live, looks like some good changes and of course some bugs. Nice to see animal classes prominently on ammo in the store but I feel like their symbols could probably be clearerExpansive Worlds posted:One of the biggest changes with the new animal scoring system, is that integrity has been replaced with a system of classes. Every species has been assigned an animal class, and ammunition is now permitted for a specified range of classes. Hub Cat fucked around with this message at 21:52 on Feb 18, 2020 |
