Africa Map, Baboons
If the developers make an inevitable African map, could we hunt baboons? The Call of the Wild devs keep declining this suggestion.

There is a game coming out called Ultimate Hunting or something like that.Animals on the list range from elephants and giraffes to dolphins and the next door neighbours cat (maybe not the last two),possible baboons are on that list also.

What I don't understand is that people always want a map of Africa. Wide open spaces with targets the size of a barn door. And with elephants, etc., such a game is well on the way to making life difficult for itself due to public pressure.
Likely low quality thus the need to put animals in it that shouldn't be in a hunting game,gotta sell the it somehow i guess.

Do you hunt in real life? I'm a member of the Safari Club International (SCI) and ask fellow members where their favorite hunt was. Many say southern Africa. There you can hunt baboons for free as they're considered pests.

You're mistaken. The reserves there need culls as with any properly managed reserve. Baboons are, as I said, free, largely from farmers who will invite you onto their land willingly.

Looks like it might be a decent game but the "Ultimate Fishing" titles are a little too janky for me. Hope they remedy that with this 1.2 million budget.

Its being made by 3T Games,don't think they have anything to do with the ultimate fishing thing.

Yeah, it is a bit much but I'll never say that the privilege should be revoked. If you watch his shot placement, it makes sense.
Maybe you'll enjoy this more.

Personally, I'm not a big fan of baboon hunting or pest control hunting in general in a hunting game. I'm also not a big fan of hunting feral or introduced species. These are hunts that are necessary due to civilisation conflicts, compulsory tasks that should be left to reallive hunters. That would give the hunting game a very ordinary athmosphere. In addition, the baboon is very similar to humans and offers potential for conflict.

I'd prefer a Russian map or Canada, I like that they went a little out of the ordinary with Transylvania. Hopefully some other cool locations, even India or something before Africa personally.

India would be fine if they had rhesus macaques and blowguns.
Mhhh and maybe a good BIGFOOT to find

This looks pretty good if I were in the market for that but yeah, a cryptid hunting game (or DLC) with an X-Files theme would be good. They would do that occasionally in theHunter: Classic.
