the game started really good on very high graphic settings, but somehow it is now glitchy. The blue markers will get stuck and would not go away. It gets very annoying. Sometimes it would glitch as if i am walking on a swamp but i am on dry land ,but is not as bad as the blue marker on your aim site and would not go away. Fix fix or tell me if I am doing something wrong. thanks

I can see the potential, however this game is not ready for play yet. As others have wrote multiple times, there is no need to type out the same thing. I do believe this game will eventually be a great game, however now is not the time.

45 meters to a Bison, with 308 long/heart and never dead, never ever, no matter how many shots. Hippo head shots withing 50 meters and not dead? Not realistic...i think still a long way to go....

Skip for now! Couldn't exit the car and when I remove a marker through the map, the markers would bug and stay over my cursor. Just stick to the first game which is already fleshed out.

I was eager to buy and download the game and start playing it, but unfortunately, I was very disappointed and felt dizzy because the game has many bugs. It's truly awful and needs a lot of improvement. Even the character's movements are slow and jerky, despite my computer being very powerful and running all Steam games smoothly except for this one. I absolutely do not recommend buying it at the moment until they improve it.

I am from South Africa and hunted for a long time for meat and also night hunting to eradicate Bushpigs (Warthogs) from Agriculture land. YOU ARE SPOT ON WITH THIS LATEST RESERVE. CANNOT FAULT YOU.

For the moment, i don't know if its final decision, but hitboxes are poor, you can shoot a deer or sheep 4 times in the neck, it won't get down.. blood on non lethal shots are only visible for like 10 meters, animal shot in a leg wil run as fast as a normal one.. moving trough moutain is hard and you can loose consciousness for getting down a small rock... and on top, some fatal errors while playing. it will be for sure good at some point. but many details are not there at the moment.

Hi there, I am a 67 years old Hunter...Enjoyed playing Way of the Hunter with great pleasure, and since Way of the Hunter 2 has arrived just started enjoying it. The game looks excellent, animals are well groomed, Enviornment, graphics and all features look gr8. What difficulties I am facing are: 1- The Hunter sence is not very effective - means if a animal is spooked, it is difficult to trace them, unlike in Way of Hunter 1, there was these white circles going where the animal has run off to. This helped in tracking them down soon. 2- The small ? marks and the green leaf is not helping in knowing the eating zones and drinking zones, unlike in the previous game these areas were highlight as the hunter sence is on. Easy to know the zones. 3- The foilage or the Grass height is far too high, unable to the see the animal even at 50 mtrs, unless you stand, and when you do so, the animal is spooked ad off it goes!!!! 4- The blood marker - the Dot...isn't working well, previous game blood trails can be seen for a loooong distance where the animal was found dead. 5- The level system for me is questionable? You cant buy a Gun, an attachment, a good binocular or a good sight unless you come or pass a certain level-why? Old people need good vision to hunt and a good high caliber sight makes our hunt more easy - we don't have to burn our eyes!!! These are my thoughts and rest I leave it to your team to decide on my requests, And Remember Old Hunters Never Die, they always stay Loaded !!!! Thanks you for giving me this opportunity to communicate. Let me enjoy the new update here on Stream now. Good Bye.

Wouldnt buy it as it is right now. Its a grind. You can hunt deer. Otherwise youll have to grind out killing what seems like endless deer to get the funds and the experience lvls to unlock the other weapons and higher caliber rifles. The hunting is sound but the repetetive nature of just dropping deer is boring. They need to change the money system to either better reward clean kills and a perfect stalk or something to reward better hunting so that you progress faster.

If you're not within 200 meters of a perfectly broadside deer with an already too powerful gun, it's going to walk away like nothing happened half the time. I think they have the right idea but the wrong execution, or need to scale everything the way it is now. After struggling for a while, I even turned on aim assist to ensure I was hitting vitals. I'm writing this after rage quitting because a mule deer survive a .338 Lapua at 180m, broadside. Nobody needs to be using a .338 on game that size. WTF! Even if I was way off that deer isn't going far with that much gun. This is all just silly. Also the audio could use a lot of work. It'll sound like you have a pack of wolves on your head, but they're still 50m away, and then they spot you THROUGH A HILL? I'll give it a year and check out my investment. Bow season is coming up anyways.
