Only a few states allow free-range bison hunting in the United States-Utah, Wyoming, Arizona, Alaska, and Montana. The tags and permits required for these hunts are almost impossible to come by. Luckily, you can also legally hunt bison on private ranches in some other states, including West Canyon Ranch in Utah.
BASICALLY a great video, BASICALLY all of your videos are BASICALLY a great teaching tool but BASICALLY, the word BASICALLY is BASICALLY annoying at its BASIC level. (Is the Oxford English Dictionary paying you to say BASICALLY? lol) SERIOUSLY though, I BASICALLY enjoy watching these.
Instead of messing around like this day 1 I learned to just start at the lodge walk south shoot everything I see. 4pm go home sleep till 7am do it all over again. I'm getting 2 from a group now I got a 7mm and good scope. I got my first 700m hit earlier from the lodge on elk down at the river towards echo.
So ranging is a big issue. I find when hunting and an animal comes in, I don't want the extra motion trying to find his range so while I'm waiting sitting up a tree, I pick some distinct objects around me at key ranges. Then when a deer reaches that stone or bush he's at 30 yds, etc. Can do this as an in game animal comes in. Pick a landscape feature or place a tracking mark, at your desired shot range then you have a better feel for how far away he is
So I am not sure that the ballistic modeling is that bad. I don't remember seeing an actual initial bolt speed for that weapon so it could be better or worse for the expected drop, but the 11 in drop at that range is for a 350 fps bolt, which is pretty powerful as far as most crossbows go
This morning I was on my phone so I took a look at that shot that seemed so off. When u were talking about the shot you said the range was 39. You had the zeroing at 41 or so. Then right before you pulled the trigger, you rolled the zero to 33. Irl a pretty strong crossbow, from 30 to 40 yds, the bolt drops 11 inches in that 10 yd distance increase. In the kill screen I couldn't see the actual range of the shot.
Totally completed everything and unlocked the entire map last week and the best thing I've seen is a 3 star adult. So I've dedicated my lodge to showcase interesting malformations and it's basically a freak show. I also discarded the two caribou from the mission and there's no other use for that stand so be careful you don't do that.
If I only have about 30 minutes to maybe an hour of free time per day for gaming, is this game still worth it? I like COTW, but it feels a bit too gamey and not sim-like
Yeah if u don't mind killing only a animal or 2. On the map you can see where the herds are at, where their need zones are and when they'll be at those zones. You can just sleep right before that time, drive to that spot and look out for the animals
Maps are around 144 km2 and ones in DLC are planed to be around 65 km2 I think. And trust me lots and I mean LOTS of players prefer this system with no need to buy ammo. And also I can bet that about 99% of players of this game does not care about cars. Also maybe head or spine shots are not "ethical" but I know few real word hunters who would rather shoot animal in head and save lots of meat then having trouble with shooting strait in the heart or lung. While I mostly aim stomach or lungs. Also just shooting male animals will create mess same way if shooting only males. It will create breeding population unbalance... it is simply just shoot animals you want.
Own the game and yet to start up Transylvania map. Looks fun! I know it looks like there's less animals but if anybody who's hunted. Knowing that you got a tag in an area it could be scarce of animals.
I don’t think you can see it until after you’ve harvested the animal. I’m new to the game though, so I could be wrong. Maybe there are some dope binoculars that I can’t afford that will tell you?
