[quote=MTK;1253169]If you can lasso the deer and kill them with your knife you get a perfect pelt every time[/quote]

Thanks for the tip, thats the stuff I need to learn. I did the lasso and on the first one i got a perfect pelt but then i did a few more after that and they were good pelts. First time i walked up to the deer, I was sure I was going to get antler stabbed.

Any tips for getting perfect pelts for racoons and rabbits etc? I use a varmint rifle and it takes like 4 shots.

Im already half way through chapter 3 so im trying to slow down on the main missions and learn how to craft, fish and do stranger side quests.

I was never into the hunting much other than to get the legendary animals. But I know if there's not 3 stars next to the name when you study it, it can't give a perfect pelt no matter how you kill it.

You can study animals from afar? Alright .. I need to dig deeper into the online guides instead of just the walk throughs.

Thanks MTK.

Good to see EA getting some heat. Franchise mode has been dead for years.

Hooked up my old xbox 360 recently and started playing NCAA 14 again. The depth of the dynasty mode blows away anything Madden has offered up in franchise mode in years.

I haven't bought Madden in like 5 years because it seemed like franchise mode never got updated, and that's all I played.

Re: New Games on the Horizon (the video game thread)
 

Looks like a must play

I loved Franchise mode back in the day, played about 20 seasons with the Skins on Madden '05. I hope it comes back.

My son and I were excited to get Madden 21 for all of the teams with new uniforms, Brady's move, Chase Young, a better Redskins team...but what the heck are they going to do with us? We're currently nameless and have no idea what our uniform will look like? :D

I hope it's released with us as the Redskins for one final time.



Check this out!

Well, there goes my money to the game (that I probably wasn't going to spend anyways lol).

Re: New Games on the Horizon (the video game thread)
 

So not even throwbacks like the rest of the teams?

That's BS. Changing current things is one thing but erasing and rewriting history is unacceptable.

I just completed RDR2 .. or at least the part where Arthur dies and you become Jon. Awesome amazing ending, I want to go back and play RDR now bc I have true hate for Micah and Dutch.

is it worth doing the Jon missions or is it a bunch of cow herding type stuff?

Oh it's worth playing as Marston, but it's a bit of a slog at first. Stick with it and there's a payoff.

Re: New Games on the Horizon (the video game thread)
 

Ok who is breaking down to get a PS5 or new Xbox?

I generally wait a year because new consoles are like their prototypes and really the majority of folks are still on the old systems. Plus limited library on new consoles in first year.

Oh and fuck them for on the cheaper models getting rid of disk reader; the end of trading and or buying used games. Though the death of Gamespot would make me smile.

Re: New Games on the Horizon (the video game thread)
 

I'm going with the digital PS5, I'd love to get a release day one but the pre-orders seem to be really limited so I'm not holding out much hope.

Re: New Games on the Horizon (the video game thread)
 

Definitely gonna sit and wait on the PS5 until some game comes out that I really want. No sense buying one on day one and putting up with all the kinks.
