Hunter wagon isn’t worth buying ?

[tc04]

I bought the hunter wagon and I am disappointed how worthless it is.

1)
There should have been more space .
5 animals is not that efficient

2)
In forest and Mountain Region you are much faster with your horse instead

3)
Why you cannot use your horse and your wagon ? Rockstar come on.... let us have fun so it does not feel like work

Whistle for your horse and it will follow, park the wagon if you can't get any farther and continue on horseback.
I've seen some guys who grabbed a train and all their horses ran after the train.

I saw some guy putting something in this cart, I promptly tied him up and stole it, then he respawned and set it on fire somehow while raging to kill me. Good times.

What you talking about? You know you can only have one each of the time...

He is speaking of multiple people.
Wagon is trash. Just hogtie 2nd dead animal and you can carry two of them on ur horse. works with bounties too

Yeah but only if the bounty is unconcscious otherwise it dies. Also you can actually carry 3 cadavar and bounty if you steal a npc horse on the paths since they are quite common anyway.

The hunting wagon is great especially if you are high enough rank for the extra materials for bringing in 3* carcasses.

It sounds like the way that many people use the hunting wagon is that when they want it, they tell their horse to flee and summon the wagon using the stables section of the player menu. Then when they're done with it, they dismiss the wagon via the same menu (apparently, there's a two minute cooldown for you to be able to summon it again), and then they whistle for their horse to get it back. So, you don't necessarily have to be driving your wagon around as your mode of transportation. And apparently, the pelts and carcasses in your wagon don't get lost if the wagon is destroyed (they come back when you get the wagon back) or if the game crashes on you (whereas pelts on your horse just love to disappear on you). So, while the hunting wagon is by no means perfect, there are definitely some real benefits to having it.

You can summon the wagon at any time, put stuff in it, and dismiss it and get back on your horse.

This is useful when you are not devoting full time to trader and still want to bag 3 star animals and make use of them later when you have time.

In certain places with wide open ranges, you can be on horseback, slay an entire herd of pronghorns or whatever, stash them all in the wagon real quick and keep hunting with a clean horse, then fill your horse and dump ALL of it when you go back to camp next time.

It has it's uses. I use it a lot more when doing bounties because sometimes you have time to kill and see a good buck or two and don't want to carry it on your horse because you about to go nab a bounty.
