There hasn’t been a game that gives you a great hunting experience in so long, the last great one was
theHunter Classic. Will any modern hunting game, including Ultimate Hunting ever come close to comparing?

30.06.2022They should add some ‘survival’ elements to it, making fires, eating, and having animal interactions. RDR2 has that, seeing a hawk catch a rabbit/snake, or wolves stalking an elk, CoTW lacks all that

29.06.2022I just bought hunting simulator 2 it’s definitely not as good as call of the wild but it ok

29.06.2022Call of the wild seems to be the best one for your average everyday gamer

29.06.2022100% Agree!
I started with COTW, loved it!…but recently, I gave Classic a go – Gotta say, I regret not finding Classic sooner!!
The "need zones" and the spawn system in COTW just made it too arcady for me…as you stated, the actual "Hunting" aspect is very minimal! – its an arcade grinder!
Classic…is a Hunting Sim!, the maps, animals and environment are just WORLDS ahead of the competition in regards to the over all Hunting experiance and feel.
Im hooked on Classic now…the gear selection alone is mind blowing!, but the games graphics & sound are STILL impressive 13yrs on!…I actually prefer the look & feel of the older game engine…and not having huge floating glowing tracks and bright outlines on the spotted animals makes it so much more immersive!
But the main thing Classic has over the rest!…is the community, missions and Competitions! – They are all just AMAZING!!, the community maybe smaller than COTW, but they certainly pack the competitions out and there are always heaps of multiplayer session up to join.
I honestly believe many just dont know about Classic!…Ive been gaming for over 30yrs!, never heard of it till I played COTW
More Classic Vids Please Risky❤…I think alot of people may just convert if they watched some updated guilds & showcases of TheHunter Classic
Kia Kaha from Aotearoa/New Zealand…Im off to finish the Easter mission and get me that tree stand for free 🤗
(Ohhhh I luvs the free gear & prizes!…its so good that you can just grind for EVERYTHING in the store if you dont want to spend real $$…or, throw the card furiously at the screen till your wife goes nutts!*😂)

29.06.2022I just wish that hunter classic would be on console I would def play it more than cotw
I don't want to be that cocky person who doesn't care for diamonds abd rares on cotw but I don't even get my heart rate going up when I see either I wish cotw would make rares harder and diamonds harder (or just put hunter classic on console)

29.06.2022This might sound crazy but if they added a difficulty setting I think it could help. Sometimes I just want to play for a few minutes and shoot something and other times I want It to be realistic.

28.06.2022So less animals, less open areas, double the noise and scent player makes, make callers less effective, reduce gun effective range?
Fishing_Biggens
28.06.2022Idk classic won’t grow again unless console gets it as none of them have played it they would be excited

28.06.2022Great video as always and pleasing voice 🙂 What I hope from Ultimate Hunting is to be realistic, but being able to find some animal in an hour or two to hunt. That's the time I can spend in the game, not even every day. As a full time employee, and having a wife and stepdaughter (story of the majority), that's all I have, when everybody sleep. What I like in Cotw over Classic, is graphics. As an artist working in the game industry and nature lover, I don't mind walking through beautiful forests, enjoying the view, for 30mins or so, and when I hear call from an animal or see some: Oh! Let's go hunt" After all, I play this game to hunt. What I don't like is the idea of grinding, killing hundreds of animals to earn money and points to buy some weapons, or rares to show up, like Piebald or Diamond or 10K+ killings for Great one. There is no thrill in it for me. More randomness and accidental finds would be nice.

28.06.2022My take is that cotw should at least add an “Arcady” version. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a hunting game so being slow placed is logical but at the same time you need something to keep the playerbase active. Cotw to me is an okay game, been on it since 2018 but I’ve literally fallen asleep playing it twice.
Sometimes I’d come home from work wanting to play a bit but I’m either forced to walk around for 15-20 mins to see something or “cheat” and pop up at a lake to get a kill in. You can never replicate true hunting in any game and that shouldn’t be the goal. For example I fish a lot. How boring would it be if you stood there waiting for 1-2 hours real time for a bite? Or that each fish you caught wasn’t really all that impressive?
You just can’t replicate things like this. That’s sorta why when irl, I go out for 6-8hrs to fish and either I catch a ton or none at all it’s still fun. This is the reason why cotw or hunter classic have such small and niche group of players bc most people don’t want to sit for hours to either see little or shoot constant typical animals (horn or antler length)
The most fun and memorable hunting or fishing games were always the ones that were fast paced and not to mention they had a much greater audience. Not saying revamp the whole gameplay system but add an alternate mode where it’s a bit more like SRP when it comes to the other maps to keep people intrigued

28.06.2022As a fan of hunting games I love cotw but as far as I know if ultimate hunting delivers greatly next year I’ll be leaving cotw for ultimate hunting because I hate to say it but I got no reason to lie I honestly am losing my faith in ew and I hope the new hunting game does awesome
Ladda NerSkit
28.06.2022I stopped playing cotw because it lacked the simulator part. it looks the part but once you figure it out it gets soooo boring. How people can run and gun, need zone hop, and "grind" for diamonds is beyond me, just the thought of playing like this bores me to tears.
Hunter outdoors
28.06.2022For a hunting game to get more realistic. They should add game trails and a system that makes animals follow them. And they should have animals interact with other animals same type and other type alike. That’s something you see in the hunting games where this predator is standing next to prey and nothing happens.
Steven
28.06.2022Interesting that in CoTW some people have an over abundance problem and others get nothing worth shooting at. Wonder if it's just a skill gap or if the RNG is just that harsh.
Bowman
28.06.2022The hunter classic is 13 years old and there are still animals being killed that people have never seen before.
sipdachery3
28.06.2022Who has time to spend hours in game to hunt a single virtual animal? If anything, have a hard-core option, but leave the rest of the game faster paced.
Shawn Awesome 77
27.06.2022There should be an option for no respawn on animals that way you could get an achievement for hunting the map to extinction! 😀
Shawn Awesome 77
27.06.2022I have to agree though, real hunting is nothing like this. Ive seen people complain of not getting an animal or seeing one for an hour, obviously never had to go out the 2nd day of buck season and have definitely never gone bear hunting.

27.06.2022Man I’ve been totally disinterested in any hunting game other than the hunter classic for a couple years now. We NEED something with a similar style to classic but on a new and improved engine that’s possible these days. The potential is absolutely insane for a new true hunting simulator. I really really hope that the new ultimate hunting game realizes this and doesn’t focus too much on the arcadey modes and really focus and dial in on making a realistic mode with that sense of suspense never knowing if the next ridge or prairie is concealing a big buck or any trophy animal that is much smarter and aware than the average animal of the species. We need a realistic vital system with a good rag doll physic when warranted and a good tracking system. I know it’s a lot to ask for and they have to put something into the arcade to grab a lot of the more casual players to generate profit but I think there’s a ton of people like me absolutely starving for something like this. Keep up the good work risky, ID LOVE to see regular hunter classic content out of you.
Jonathan Pilcher
27.06.2022I disagree that an up to date classic would do all too well, it definitely wouldn't do as well as cotw, we're talking about a very specific niche here and one that isn't at all very accessible, which is hyper realistic hunting, people generally play video games for some quick entertainment not to wander around in a game for hours doing nothing y'know, cotw meets a good middle ground where it isn't cod but it also isn't a hiking simulator, as evident by people on either side of the spectrum using those terms to insult it

27.06.2022When I got to max level on COTW, it got boring for me just teleporting everywhere so I restarted and I've been enjoying just running anyway with no clear objective in mind. Taking a bow with me also adds a change of pace to the game for me which makes it fun again.
Hunted Hunter
27.06.2022It depends how long youve played cotw. I started in 2019 and had no idea what i was doing. Head shots was my goal that was it. 8hrs in i got my first Lv9 bear but i had no idea what Lv9 was and i single lunged it so lost quick kill then and scored gold. My first Gold i only know it was a Lv9 bcos it was my Gold Member achievement screenshot on PS4. I saw it two months later.
Now i know where the animals are i know their pattern behaviour the magic has gone but im just as happy now as i was then. I slay diamonds. Have most rares i want. I just got piebald lynx this week. Albino last summer. Now i rea;lly want the melanistic lynx and mount them together like i have other species all rares together.
This game rekt my life though such a grind so addictive. So im ok if i get bored anytime soon too. 3yrs in and feel like its all ive done.

27.06.2022Ultimate hunting is coming out soon and it looks FIRE
Greatest Ever
27.06.2022There’s literally only 3 things they need to get right. It’s the animal, the environment, and the weapon. If they nail those 3 experiences it’s all we need.
Blake Hunting and Fishing
24.06.2022I agree completely. Sometimes I just want to set the time for really early in the morning, and go to my tower and go hunting. All these games focus on shooting a ton of animals in a spot in stalk type of way. Sometimes I would like to go out and check trail cameras and shot a few birds or something. I agree with what you said 100%

24.06.2022I believe that everyone has different tastes, me personally I have already played The Hunter Classic game which I loved before the introduction of Call of the Wild game in 2017 and although many say that The Hunter Classic is the best hunting game simulation it may be true but since I play Call of the Wild the immersion aspect is better than the Classic graphically the landscape is very beautiful and the animation of the animals is more realistic than that of the Classic in my opinion, to see in the Classic the mule deer and the other deer nodded their head from right to left continuously it takes away the immersion for me, why the deer does not lie down or do the action of eating or drinking the only thing he do is roam the reserve for no apparent reason unlike Call of the Wild we see they do different things and we see them in a herd not like the Classic they often come alone most of the time this is one example why I didn't no longer want to play like before . For me Call of the Wild I like to play all the time when I am on my day off or after work and I like to hear the sound of nature in the game as if I was there. Other than Ultimate Hunting which is supposed to be coming soon and The Way of the Hunter which dropped a trailer today I can't wait to see what gameplay they're going to offer us.

xNateJasonxgamer
24.06.2022Hunting games need to improve their animal AI and also create more realistic animations. Also, the use of tree stands and blinds need to be a better way to hunt than run and gun. Seeing animals before them seeing/smelling you is rare IRL unless the terrain is favourable.
pastuh
24.06.2022Settings can solve everything. Even simple animal can become diamond. Obvious need realism. Games hide how looks real hunting.. good example rabbit hunting.. they never die on same spot.

24.06.2022The one thing that call of the wild get it wrong is the binoculars:
1) when you view through a binoculars correctly, you'll see only one circular view… not two circular view (many movie and hunting games also get this wrong)… sometime I wonder did they actually see through a binocular before?
2) You can't zoom using a fixed magnification binocular such as 8×42 binocular which mean 8x magnification and 42mm objective diameter. A zoom binocular is something like 10-22×50.3) The Rangefinder also give two circular view which is strange as the rangefinder clearly only have one objective…

24.06.2022People playing Madden don't spend 3hr per game.
Time compression is part of the appeal.
Should fast travel be removed?
Anton Kelsey
24.06.2022there is nothing wrong with hunter call of the wild its the best hunting game ever and when ultimate hunter comes out im sure it will be at a tie with call of the wild
AvailingFaith
24.06.2022The thing that keeps me playing COTW is the lodges. Having the mounting options is like having a base builder in a weird way and I dig that. Finding those rare coats or racks was so much fun knowing I’d be able to stuff or mount to add to lodge. For me the perfect game would have rock solid graphics, animations and sound with stuff like really customizable lodges. The animals need to have some sort of dynamic aspect to them. Think Dinos in Ark. Each Dino had tons of randomly generated / mutated options so no two were exactly alike. Add in some serious fishing and man I’d dump so many hours into a game like.

23.06.2022What modern hunting games are missing is the feeling of a real hunt . First off , you aren’t always gonna have animals around you at all points and times of the day . Second , they lack the bag limit which in most states and countries are all different . Your character never seems to have any emotion what so ever ! Hunting is an emotional experience . Like I could see if you have no patience and need instant gratification but hunting isn’t about that at all . Not all hunts end with you bagging an animal . I remember having a game called “Deer Hunter “ If you messed up a shot he or she would yell out “Dang it I’m hitting the animal too low or too high “ Now your character doesn’t react at all . Also a big pet peeve of mine is when hunting games rewards the player for shooting us an animal in the head . First off , that’s just plain wrong and unethical. Second, you are suppose to aim for the heart or the lungs because that will kill an animal faster and it’s an easy area to aim for . That’s the other thing your character never seems to get nervous when big animals are around . I think hunting games should have input from real hunters . I’m hoping at some point hunting games become more realistic and if you don’t have the patience to play a game like that there’s plenty of other games that can fill that part for you . Thanks for the video !

23.06.2022YES as an irl hunter I can barely stand these hunting games that are just unrealistic. I hate when I watched a COTW video and the YouTuber would say “ I’m thinking about setting up a grind for __ “ in real life if you want a class animal you have too work, study and train yourself for it, not just walk out into the woods and expect a B&C class trophy too just be there I couldn’t agree more with everything said. As a kid on summer break I would stay up till 4 AM at times playing Hunting Unlimited 2010 graphics weren’t top notch but it was realistic and the best hunting game I ever played until early COTW then the devs drove it into the ground and now I can’t play it for more than an hour without getting “ I would rather watch paint dry” bored.

23.06.2022Zoomies dont want that tho. So its sadly unlikely to ever happen.
AManNamedJeffBobson
23.06.2022Hmm Yeah maybe, i don’t think ppl would have time to play it or be patience enough though
Long Feather
23.06.2022True to life would be conservation. Having the ability to play a role in animal herd/antler growth. For example: taking out the inferior animals to allow the herd to grow with superior genetics.

23.06.2022Give me the ability to build my own cabin…and set traps lol.. also add fishing
Kerigal
23.06.2022For me The Hunter COTW is pretty good but i play it different way to make it more simulator, less arcade game with my own rules like ignore map, and need zones i just pick up track and follow till i find animal or other get in my way. If i need more challenge i just pick bow (none point and click guns are better than sneak to something big diamond potential up to 20-50m to shoot with bow and do things right)
SoyAllanXD
23.06.2022A problem the i find with the hunter classic is that is if you want cool stuff or thing in general you got to pay real money.
You want this gun you can grind for a month or if you lucky weeks or pay 5 dollars
