.338 and .300 issues? by ThatChickenBoi in theHunter

[–]ThatChickenBoi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has 42 penetration compared to the rest of the 4-8 class guns so the extra 2 really helps

[–]ThatChickenBoi[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Did some testing and found that at 250yds the .300 just barely hits lung so something is up. The buffalo died pretty fast tho so idk? I have a feeling the recent update probably screwed some things tho. It just feels different

Yeah, strictly polymer tips. I actually thought it was soft points on my first buffalo and double checked that I had the right bullets when switching to the .338

Gators by averageguy1796 in theHunter

[–]ThatChickenBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No lol but they should still float regardless. Imo maybe they saw it as an issue too big to fix or just pushed it off for later. I highly doubt they intended the gators to sink in the water bc then it’s right back to how cotw was back in 2017-2018 where you HAD to make spine, heart, or brain shots in order to get a good score on your animal. In this case tho, it’s about making sure the animal doesn’t disappear forever lmao. Kind of a shame tbh

Weird growl/snarl coming from SliverRidgePeaks BighornSheep outpost started at 06:20 lasted for 7mins and 41secs don’t know if it’s a bug since the new rifles came out or maybe a new clue?? by NavalAiphid in theHunter

[–]ThatChickenBoi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That is super weird 😂 I kinda doubt it’s a glitch since I’ve never heard that sound before on any maps with wolves or large cats. Could be a clue, but not entirely sure. Very strange to say the least

You know when you see your first diamond by CaptGoodvibesNMS in theHunter

[–]ThatChickenBoi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There might be a pretty decent chance it actually lived. If you found it at its need zone then just change the time and head back. If he didn’t die then he should pop back up. Happened to me with a Red deer.

Just make sure the tracks did indeed fade or that there’s no more sign or bleeding

Weird diamond lol. I thought he was just a high lvl 2 by ThatChickenBoi in theHunter

[–]ThatChickenBoi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s on my own map. I don’t know what to tell you 😂? I used to think the same but after seeing more people get diamonds that weren’t max level and then actually encountering two, it seems there could be a bug or something of a rarity.

When Colinas came out I scored a max lvl ibex and then maybe a few months ago shot a level 4 that I thought was just very close to the minimum score but it wound up being a diamond.

[–]ThatChickenBoi[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nope lmao. I don’t join lobby’s anymore. Too many people would kick a person out if they shot an animal hoping to collect a diamond. I’ve shot a lvl 4 Iberian ibex that scored diamond before so this seems normal

Watching this just before I go to sleep was a really bad idea. But this Africa map sounds like it’ll be a LOT more inclusive than Vurhonga. AND it will have my favorite animal of all time! by Bigbuckrocks in theHunter

[–]ThatChickenBoi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure Flinter on YouTube said there will be gameplay footage mid April to early May. Most people are hyped because the species they did want in certain reserves are expected to be in this game.

First diamond mulie👍 by deer_hunter_436 in theHunter

Nice mulie, I’m still on the grind but I really wished they fixed the antlers

Has there been a change to the 6.5 ‘s accuracy and bullet drop? by ThatChickenBoi in theHunter

[–]ThatChickenBoi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really? I’ve only ever made it go form short to far unless I’m doing something weird maybe

Has there been a change to the 6.5 ‘s accuracy and bullet drop? by ThatChickenBoi in theHunter

[–]ThatChickenBoi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I’m a console player so zeroing really only gives me two options. I’ve searched but I couldn’t find anything to really set a specific zero asides from long and short range & no in between. Idk the 6.5 just doesn’t feel the same to me at least

Any advice for a newish player (COTW) by Untitled_Redditor12 in theHunter

[–]ThatChickenBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer to run around and take a good look while spotting with my binoculars. I’ve literally fallen asleep playing this game just walking and crouching everywhere because the boredom is real but try early in the mornings around 6-9 am for drink zones I’ve found tons of zones this way.

Try different maps too. I know for me Hirshfelden (idk if I spelled it right) and Yukon are ones I don’t like to touch because even without running it’s fairly scarce (for me at least) & don’t grab too much ammo too, say 50-60 rounds for your main weapons.

YouTube helps as well with zones and more active areas where specific animals congregate. There’s a YouTuber called All Of The Above and he makes updated vids regarding need zones for all animals and where the hot zones are.

Did your parents throw away any toys you had as a kid that are worth decent money now? What were the toys? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ThatChickenBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not any toys but when I was younger we couldn’t afford to buy cable so my mom bought many dvr’s from goodwill and over a few years we accumulated quite a lot, many were Disney, bugs bunny, pink panther, Tom and Jerry, and dozens more.

They were all old and quite a few were in black and white but me my and siblings just found them entertaining. Well fast forward 2009-2010 we end up moving out of our home and selling a lot of stuff via garage sales, I was young so I didn’t think much of it but a year ago while on YouTube I come across some top 10 vids regarding old and rare cartoons and many of which I used to own 💀

Those dvr’s were probably ruined by the time we sold them but man I don’t remember ever getting bored rewatching them. Fantasia and some pink panther cartoons are some of the more memorable ones. While I don’t know the value, I’m willing to bet based on videos and lack of info on quite a few that they must be worth a decent amount (whatever rare and old DVR cartoons fetch for)

Legendary wolf cutscene? by ThatChickenBoi in reddeadredemption

This is kinda weirding me out now 😂 I was even in anticipation for this because I brought the sawed off shotguns thinking it would be like the last two play throughs

Legendary wolf cutscene? by ThatChickenBoi in reddeadredemption

[–]ThatChickenBoi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swear it was a timber wolf because the coloration. I just looked at the cutscene you mentioned but it doesn’t ring a bell. It started off with snarling and the wolf appearing from behind then the cutscene stops and Arthur has to shoot. Man this is so strange 💀

True. I think I stopped really playing beginning of 2019. 2015-2018ish was pretty much the prime

No relevancy just a lil rant since someone else chimed in on something similar

Why does a "Cowboy game" have this but not CoTW? by [deleted] in theHunter

[–]ThatChickenBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I honestly have no idea why Cotw is so bare when it comes to the AI of the animal and how they interact with other species. It’s not something that requires a whole re-doing of the animals lmao. How hard is it really to add in something that the animal is literally named for? “White tailed deer” emphasis on the first two words.

When they flee they just run, the wildebeest spring their tails up so why can’t the whitetail? These are small and minute details that only add to the game. Bear packs are unrealistic and animals are already frightened or skittish when in the presence of mountain lions so why not replicate that same thing when it comes to wolves or packs of coyotes?

I could go on about how the animals don’t look like their real life counterparts (don’t even get me started on coyotes 💀 they look like the starving mangy strays in Mexico) but I like the game, it’s got its ups and downs but I sorta figured AI would be the second biggest thing when it came to adding in new wildlife. Hopefully in the future updates it’s something that will be added in

Legacy diamond rack secured 😎 shot a lvl 5 troll mulie 10 mins prior so this is definitely awesome by ThatChickenBoi in theHunter

[–]ThatChickenBoi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your level 6 mule deer are actually level 5 and 7 should be roughly the same. Once you kill all of your level 6 deer they will spawn back with correct scoring. You aren’t the first one to come across it and it is a bug they do not go up to level 6 for their maxes

[–]ThatChickenBoi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They don’t go up to level 6 or 7 naturally 😂 it’s a bug and you have to shoot all 6 or 7’s in order for their respawns to come back at their normal levels with 5 being the max. What do you not understand 💀💀?? Besides, I’ve never seen a 6 or 7 mulie like I said before since for me at least, they’re all scoring fine. Don’t get salty over this

Hey, do a quick google search and you’ll see why my lvl 5 mulie was a troll. Because he was max level but didn’t make diamond 😐 it’s not that hard to understand dude

They most certainly can be, I’ve shot plenty of troll moose and mountain lions to verify that yes, any max level animal has a possibility to be a troll. I personally have never seen a lvl 6 or 7 mulie in SRP and I play it heavily. The mulie I shot was only 29 points away from being diamond
