theHunter: Call of the Wild

yes in deer species you aim for vital organs as other species.on a side shot hit just after the front leg armpit crease area will give a lung shot.this is probably the most common shot to do.often it will lead to a short tracking experience then a dead animal.

what it comes down to is do you want to shoot realistically ? or just effective with least tracking ?

neck shot and spine shots are often one shot kill.back of head can be.texas heart shots can be very effective also.which is shooting it in the ass straight line hits most organs.

in reality you wouldnt shoot deer in heads or ass head shots ruin the trophy antlers you after and ass shot would ruin meat.ingame though they are effective.

front on deer aim bang on middle of chest or down diagnal shoulder area which will give lung shots.
 
first time for some reason you have to click the circle in inventory after that though when you buy rounds they just automatically add.so its just the first time you do this for each weapon.

im loving the game just got struck with the crashing bug some have at moment.frustrating as the game is amazing.sometimes you can play whole day nothing then have 3 crashes in short succession.

they are aware of it though and hopefully its patched soon.nearly got enough for the winchester now. :cool:
 
its £20 game all in from cdkeys.com.or you can buy on steam for £30. all the guns and items are in the game.its a one time payment.theHunter classic which is the original game is a microtransactions game.


Brocky the steam forums is where forums is for call of the wild. you could try their twitter or facebook page.they are aware of the crashing issue and working on a patch.game is very addictive cant stop playing it :p
 
Sounds like two extremes tbh, they needed to lower it but they dropped it too far by the sounds of it!

i personally would have liked it to remain the same but with many things now kids want most things easier. i think the long road to unlocking gave purpose to the game and achievement when you get the next item / gun. then you apprechiate it more. now i have the top gun its a beast. i shot 3 moose at 300 metres plus downing each one on the spot. i did look up the gun thinking it was op until i seen in real life what the .338 bushmaster can do. :p
 
it is one of the best looking games ever made scenic wise. if you can play at the high resolutions with all ultra on.

i just been recording at dusk. absolutely breathtaking. you can spend many hrs just roaming about.


i think it does help if you played the other theHunter game as you get the basic grasp of how to play but not a must . this game is easy to access that theHunter classic as its now known but can be still enough of a challenge. there are missions objectives also if you want to do that or you can just ignore that and just hunt.

reviews wont be many because you have to unlock stuff and it took quite a while at the start plus patches and things.

now back to hunting.:p doing long range shots with the .338 bushmaster and my new shiney scope.:cool:
 
forget the weigh point for now.just cancel it.what most do bring map up with is M and then just use compass in the direction you want to go.
 
you have to claim it.then you goto the door on the cabin and you select the time you want to rest for.if that time or option isnt available i would restart game and see after rejoining if the option to rest is then.
 
How do you select the bow to be able to use it?
It's showing as purchased and I bought some arrows too but I cant add it to my inventory slots.:confused:

you need to go to the store box then storage and drag it over into your inventory.

heres video of me taking out the .338 for a spin.


 
brocky yes i did realize after i had said it wrong but small slip up.had been shooting stuff earlier over 300m so just slip of the tongue :D

steve nice shot on the yote i bagged one at 380 yesterday at balamont lake when i got 30000 saved up will go and get the top range finder for some long range shooting videos.500m is about the max.
 
Anyone else had issues interacting with objects, the E prompt doesn't come up on some of them and I can't seem to do anything.

now and then you may get some kind of overlay issue or cant interact with certain objects . most have been patched now odd item though still will happen though.


for those who struggle to get animals you can move more freely. callers are great.if a animal calls you call back once.when it calls look immediatly with binos to the location.often you can see it or traces if you fast.

also as you come to certain areas especially open fields or water holes / ponds animals will always be close so before getting to close scan area for life.
 
yes you have to buy certain callers for certain species.you will start will a deer bleat caller and roe deer caller.the bleat caller will work for blacktails and whitetails.just call once wait.the deer will often come to you unless spooked.
 
well i just been mounting climbing starting from steve45s route.managed to survive some tricky spots and rocks and walked most of the range of mountains.reason i wanted to go up was to record the top and look for long range shots.in the end found a group of elk and pulled off a 466m lung shot.:cool:. will try and get video up for tomorrow.

Sounds like a nice little jaunt up there - I might have to do that myself. That's a fine shot too - I'm up to 435m myself on a single shot kill on a Blacktail with a .270, which is pretty much my go to rifle at the moment. Did I read that the max view distance for animals is 500m somewhere?
yes 500m is supposed to be the draw distance i think with animals but you have to get the hieght to get those shots . the elk i was watching was popping render at about 475 where i was shooting and i wanted it for a video. :p
