I really like this series because i started with the game about a month ago and have already unlocked the 270 but this really helps to see where you go and the way you apraoch the animals so i can improve my game to
Goldeneye I don’t think it is once u find deer or something try to stay in that area cause usually when u find one their all their u just have to get them moving
@Traeten Rustad I would imagine it is because the amount of chunks being loaded is much smaller. On PC you're getting animals spawning all around you in a large radius and on xbox it is likely that nothing is spawning outside of a couple hundred meters.
You are doing something wrong then cause i was playing earlier and within the 1st hour i saw a whole herd of red deer was about 8 of them and whole herds of mule deer aswell they all ran past me about 15 of them lol. Im on the Xbox One X
Just started watching you today flinter. Watched the first lvl 1 restart video then started this and I bought the game before I finished this. You did your job well lol
The series is awesome. I’m lrvel 20 myself and it’s cool to see how you level up without skills instead of having everything unlocked :) I wish you were streaming the series also :)
I just started this game a few days ago on Xbox but Jesus you make this look easy. I'm definitely going to be going for the spine more when using the rifle
Surprised so much emphasis is put on getting the Hyperion. I used the Ascent right up until I got Steady Hands maxed and 2/3 in Breath Control because the lower zooms decreased the wobble so much.
loving the beginner series mate. im level 34 now and still learning. ive kinda been liking the stradivarius over the 7mm magnum lately, seams better for bears...
I have had that happen to me a lot. Get a good hit, follow the tracks and they just suddenly stop. No kill in sight, no more tracks, no more blood, just vanished. :(
u need to go further... some spots dont have destroyed areas. like plain fields. just keep walking till u get to a dense area again and u will find tracks.
I play this game on xbox and I'm not very good at it which upsets me since if I was good I would find this game so fun but watching this guy play really makes me want to keep trying and playing it more
Without trying? The video editing makes it seem like he just stumbles upon animals constantly. Watch the streams to get better understanding how he actually plays.
For some reason I see fewer animals in the last few sessions. I try not to hunt in the already hunted area's, and it seems like calls don't work as well. And they seem to spook more even if I'm silent, correct wind and use the camo clothes correctly by standing in brush. So what's up with that? And I'm on Xbox one x and for some reason the game randomly makes me move forward for no reason and even without touching the L stick.
Yeah I hate when I'm scoped in this game and the up and down motion of walking keeps going even when I'm still. I have to jiggle the stick and then it goes back to normal again
How are you finding finding animals to spot so quickly? It's like they're everywhere you look with your binos there's always something to spot. Definitely not my experience I fast crouch everywhere, hunt upwind around lakes and rivers, noise meter is seldom in the red, maybe one bar if I'm going through bushes, I fast crouch for 10 seconds, stop, scan with binos and repeat. I've seen more animals in this video than in two weeks I've been play. I like the series though just wondering how you're getting all those animals to spawn.
Exact same issue, I've tried every strategy, yours which I use the most, the sprint-warning call one, staying stationary and using scents/calls, buying a stand/blind. It's all terrible. Especially bad are the coyotes and foxes, they are nearly impossible to track down and get close enough to if you're lucky enough to even see it in the distance. If you crouch to make less sound they outrun you, but if you stand and go fast enough to catch up they hear you and run. It's a terrible balance in my opinion. I've just been sticking to ducks, bears, bison, and moose because they are so easy to spot.
You just gotta be at the right place at the right time, make sure you spend your skill & perk points to give you a hunting advantage, if you still hardly see animals try resetting the map you are on. I always see every animal when i play.
Can you do a video on: 1. Night hunting, does lamp scare animals? 2. Just all the basics like purple on map means the animal is dead or just animals avoiding area? 3. How to stalk without running across the entire map? 3.
They give you the .270 once you hit a certain rifle score and level. When I started I got it and was just as confused as to why I had a premium version of the .270 for free
So in one of your newer vids I believe you said something about the game will go into more realistic bullet placements like heart and lung shots, maybe if the opportunity presents itself base of the neck shots.
Flinter, you were talking about waiting on the animals to stop, im not sure if you know but on console you can hold a button to whistle. Fairly certain you could on PC. Just thought it'd help if you didn't know.
I just started this game and you make it look too easy! my rifle is always swaying all over the place, and i rarely find groups of animals. I wonder if things have changed with the game since 2+ years ago.
It’s had a lot of updates since this series became a thing but he’s also invested 1k hours so it’s more experience/skill than anything Amd he’s usually kneeling or laying down when he shoots and when he holds his breathe he doesn’t do it for long maybe a couple seconds
@Kristian Mijic you’re not the only one that’s thought that as of late about10 other people on my fb group thought the same but I showed them a montage of me getting spine shots proving it’s still a thing just have to be careful and patient with your shots as well as if you’re using the zeroing perk to make sure it’s at the distance to target or vice versa it’s the easiest my almost guaranteed way to hit your shots and obviously using the right caliber as well
i just played this game for few hours, and i feel like so hard to find animal, when i already shot it the other problem that im struggling to track the bleeding animal lol
3:15 when Flinter says “didn’t hit that one” I always wondered if Flinter does his audio voice recording post game footage or if he does the audio recording while playing the game 5:32 I kind of miss the oldschool look of the silver gold and diamond logos instead of the bog simple ones we have in 2023.
just one question, how is it that you have so many animals on the map to track, kill and harvest, and i do move slowly and watching my approach to not spook animals, but still there are no animals on the map, very few
Hey Flinter, So I've had CotW for about a year and like to play it when I have spare time so admittedly don't have a lot of hours in it. Ive gotten pretty decent at bagging the big game but I'm really struggling with getting coyotes in Cheela for the storyline missions. Do you have any advice on how to track them down or where to look so that I can finally move past this roadblock? Thanks in advance! Love your content!
How do you find animals you shoot? I dont have any problems finding animals. I can find & call in game all day but ill shoot a deer and chase it for miles and never find it.
6:25
I THINK YE HIT THE *LUMBER* SPINE
(sorry I had to)
lol
Tar meharty
Aadyn Whitten nice
I’m confused cuz it looks like he hit the deer to me
Hahahahahaha
What the game considers decent bucks are, IRL, once in a lifetime bucks.
bishopob what state do u hunt in?
Well I mean thats why you play this. So you can get those bucks
True
I killed a once in a lifetime buck lasy year he was a 12 point 213 inch whitetail.
But i agree
That bear scared the shit out of me lmao
I actually jumped
Same
REVANGE
yea same
Same I jumped
you seem to find animals so much faster and in more abundance than I ever do.
Modded
It's not modded
He times his hunts.
Using his knowledge of when deer head to water or rest zones
He would know where and when these are bcs he's a level 60 on his other account
He’s skipping times in the video
@@HuntsmanWTFnot modded ur jus not good
@@HuntsmanWTF it's not modded mate. It's extremely easy to find animals in this game if u know what ur doing.

George Baker same but i have 7mm already
Yeah now in 2023 there’s so much dlc you can just skip the grind by paying money :/
Wish I see as many animals as you see. I walk for hours and don't see anything. Maybe the XBox is different for animal spawns.
Goldeneye I don’t think it is once u find deer or something try to stay in that area cause usually when u find one their all their u just have to get them moving

Fr there is definitely not as many animals that spawn on xbox
That bear jump scared me.
You make it looks so easy :). One thing I can't get the hand of is calling them back if you shoot at a group of deers.
Try wearing your hair in bunches and calling out "coooee sailor" in a girly voice. Works for me.
@@Buster_PilesHAHAHAHAHA😐😐😐😐
i am getting back into the game and think i want to start over. thank you for this. gonna help a lot. been a while since i played.
Just started watching you today flinter. Watched the first lvl 1 restart video then started this and I bought the game before I finished this. You did your job well lol
Good new creative content as always, good job flinter, keep it going
I like that you started over I just started the game about a week ago and you have helped me out a lot
Hey flinter you should number this series
Hmm... Might do that, they're all going to be thrown in a playlist so wouldn't be a bad idea
Markyk19 yeah he should
@@Flintergaming I second that. Makes it easier to binge watch
This is awsome to watch you do this because not only is it fun to watch it also might help some beginners.

They should have a 30-06
JetKakersFPS L and like a 308 and the gun you have changes your stamina drain and how fast you can run
@@markyk19 There is a .308 in the game.
@@XxHiiaMaFrOGxX where?
@@kriskirton1988 In the rifle shop... you know now that I think about it it might be a .338

2:10 i jumped so bad.
Alright thanks to you I have to get out of bed and start my pc again.
And damn you are good!
Peace
the bear in 2:18 made me jump in my chair...
The 2019 edition includes the 270!!
@Colin Barbour same
Researching this game after seeing it on sale in ps store i see your videos and now i love this game.
loving the beginner series mate. im level 34 now and still learning. ive kinda been liking the stradivarius over the 7mm magnum lately, seams better for bears...
2:13 gave me a heart attack
Can you do a hour long episode of this please
I believe the double long shot does not give such a big bonus as the spine shot, it s much easier to hit the lungs, much bigger area.
Keep up the great work on these videos man!
I didn't realize that I could aim THAT far with the 234. That's gonna come in handy for me
Hey Flinter, great content. Love this beginner series. Subbed and liked!
2:08 I literally had a heart attack
Aha same
Same🤣
Same
You also make this look easy :p i restarted a level 5 first game mode thanks to you and your help 👊
I have had that happen to me a lot. Get a good hit, follow the tracks and they just suddenly stop. No kill in sight, no more tracks, no more blood, just vanished. :(

Aliens
And now we know who killed Bambi's mum, for rifle score of all things:(
Love this series ❤️
Rewatching this series because I am trying to learn how to quickly gain hangin score for the new ambusher pack
You make it look so easy.
I am so bad at this game when I play it
Ha ha same. I didn't even know skill points existed.
I spend ages lining up the perfect shot and still end up with just flesh wounds. He's point, shoot, down every animal every time.
I mean, at least you get to play the game
Love these vids...im from PA to flinter cant wait till rifle

Dude your so good at this game for some reason I rarely ever hit the right spots and I end up chasing them forever then always end up losing them
Same. I call this game "Long walk, call of the tired legs"
@flinter i also found that to the south west of the manps there is a lake and a cabin right at the side of it. Plenty of white tail bears and elks
I never see anything and you see hundred of bug bucks without trying
Without trying? The video editing makes it seem like he just stumbles upon animals constantly. Watch the streams to get better understanding how he actually plays.
I just got this today and I’m so excited to play!
I'm the same. On the bus home and just about jizzing my pants dude!
What weapon did you use in this video? And what sight?
For me this was a little tutorial of how you are supposed to play, killed like 5 in less than 50 minutes thanks to this 👀
Just stàrted the game. How do you get animals highlighted? Plus struggling to find dead animals in hunting pressure areas.
You get animals highlighted by spotting them. You create hunting pressure areas by killing animals
Just got the game for the first time and just got off after 4 or 5 hours I'm so addicted to this game and its so freaking fun
Great video's. Really helped me get my harvest on.

Theres 1 opinion buy a ps4 or pc coz the xbox is sh8t
Last vid was great excited to see this one
You sound like your supposed to be announcing a football game
Thank you you are the nicest RUclipsr I have commented to
Bro was so chill when that bear came out of no where lmao
What lake was he at at time stamp 13:38
I wandered for 2 hours and never saw a single living creature. I’m jealous
11:50 How do you predict that 2 of these deer are going to be gold?
best series ever

Masterbating damages your eye sight dude. Lay off the jerking and you'll be fine. I'm practically blind so I know.
Got the game 2 days ago and I was surprised when I saw that I already owned the 270 without buying it.

I think you start with it now
How do you not make any sound while crowling?
i think that it is nice for once that a youtuber is not obbsesed about subscribers and realy puts content into videos

A head is very small, and you are most likely not gonna hit it.
