yes its not for everyone you have to put time in to learn and not play it like cod

that's why i like it though it has a learning curve and isn't easy.there are many guides to help though or if you get stuck ill take you on a hunt if you want. just add me ingame.

Managed to recover my previous account with a stack of weapons and stuff

Any idea why I can't equip the tree stand, its showing in the store I own it but doesn't give me the option to stick it in my inventory?

probably not enough space.

remove other items until you can add in far right box.

Yeah I was thinking that but it does not even give me an option to load when in the lodge inventory.

On the launcher store page it says I own it already but when I select large equipment in game it does not show.

Reinstalled and had a spin on this last weekend, very enjoyable but I think I can only hunt deer. Once I got above £50 spent overall I began to begrudge paying continually.

Might get primal if I'm to spend any more money.

Primal actually released today so just purchased and downloading now

As well as becoming resentful over pay as you go games I also became reluctant to pay for early access games, so really glad this one is finished

Found me tree stand, was not rusty after all that time in the elements

Next stupid question, is there any worth to killing female deer/elK etc as from my understanding they do not carry a "score"?

~>Dg<~ · 1 Apr 2015 at 12:39

i use females to lvl weapons for hunter score.this in turn steadies gun bow as your skills increase.

one thing to remember is often bigger trophy animals maybe close so always check area first or use bow to kill silently.

nothing worse than shooting then seeing biggest deer running away

So with the release of COTW, I thought it would be a good time to bring this back. Anyone still play? Subbed for 3 months recently to get myself into this, hopefully I can purchase COTW in a few months.

Also looking for a little help

. I've been trying to do the mission "Take a 8pt Whitetail Deer" but I'm confused. The mission states I have to "Harvest a Whitetail Deer buck with at least 8 typical points". I've now been hunting these deer on Whitehart Island and starting at South Cliff Lodge for the last two days. I've killed a couple of males (the ones with the antlers) but this mission doesn't complete when I collect the corpse? Am I missing something that I haven't done?

~>Dg<~ · 21 Feb 2017 at 11:13

it should be pretty easy to do. a 8 pointer isnt that hard to come by. redfeather falls left hand lodge first tower.always whitetail there.south whitehart is great for whitetail but its more dense vegitation wise.redfeather if you start on the left lodge and walk all the left side upto the boat you will mainly get nothing but whitetails and moose.

as for theHunter which is now called theHunter classic i have about 3 years of license

. i play it often and will alternate between classic and cotw.

Spacedeck · 21 Feb 2017 at 11:42

Thanks! I'll give Redfeather Falls a try. Does the time of day have any affect on the wildlife numbers?

Also add me to your friends list

~>Dg<~ · 21 Feb 2017 at 11:50

I've never tried MP. Does the game contain in-game text based messages? Could be interesting to hunt together.

You can chat via text. Best with voice.

Sometimes it's nice just having other life in a reserve, don't have to always stay together

I tried entering my first competition but aren't doing very well

. It's only to get the longest average distance on your first 3 whitetail harvests. Won't have the time to have another go before it expires

.

Just spent a large portion of my last hunt, tracking down a big looking moose that ran away after I hit him with a crossbow. Loving the hunting though
