Release update?

[Hiphoptimus Rhyme]

Dear Developer,

I've been eagerly awaiting this game since its announcement. Call of the Wild and Way of the Hunter have both left far too much to be desired. I can appreciate, and encourage, taking as much time as needed for this to be a worthy product. Would you be able to provide a very rough estimate of how much progress you've made so far and how much is left to do? Is it 50% done? 75%? Are we a year out from initial release? 5 years? Thank you!

"Ultimate Hunting is due out in 2025 for PC, and will be released later for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and the Nintendo Switch successor."

..that said, I would love to know whether to expect it at the front end or back end of 2025.... but my money is on late 2025

We will hopefully see what the devs say though

or any updated news for that matter

Knowing the world of video games well, 2025 means December 2025.
If there are no delays...

They have said on their discord that they refuse to put out any real information all but what you see which is just rehashed stuff from things they put out before. When asked why they refuse to put out information if my memory serves me correctly they said it was because last game they made when they actually gave out information people didn't like it and it made the devs sad or something ( i forget the exact reason but he said it didn't turn out well for the team )

This translates to me like they didn't make a good game or didn't listen to the player base. You can certainly go to discord where it was stated. So don't expect them to say or do anything of substance. I have decided to put this game on the back burner until it comes out. Nothing they have said or done has given me faith in this game.

Now that isn't to say i am not going to buy it if it is good. I just don't like how the devs are handling the game and it feels ( not that its fact/true) to me like they are just hiding things or not being fully honest. So do what you will with the information.

You can see that the baboon ( i think it is ) in the latest video is just the exact same animation as when they showed the baboon nothing changed except it looks like the baboon crawls alittle faster. However all of that has been shown before and isn't something i consider new.

Hunting simulator has to really show something before I'll give another penny for it. The trailer was very superficial and didn't show much detail, all in all not very impressive. I didn't think they'd even try another game again!

We don't need five or more half-baked hunting games, we need one excellent hunting game.

Maybe and i would really like this game to be it or any game really doesn't have to be this one but.... I have not seen any game that didn't throw up some red flags or just make the game feel meh.

I'm no longer in a hurry to play hunting games, the range of hunting games is just mediocre, boring, US and equipment dominated and very stereotypical.

Elephant hunting would be something new if it's very well made. But I'm currently hyperskeptical about what I see on the horizon. They should take their time, there is enough boring mediocrity.

TheHunter and Way of the Hunter would be a perfect game if combined. Way of the Hunter has much better graphics and animal animations. And the mechanics are solid. However it's too easy to max out your skills and buy everything. Then it gets dull. The progression system is much deeper in TheHunter.

when will the game come out and when will the finel devlog come out

They have openly stated that they are actively going to give as little information as possible so no one is going to know till everyone knows.

The hunter has too many missing animals. They can add missing animals to the maps with updates but they are not working on it.

I would throw in some elements from thehunter classic.

Tracer arrows actually being well made, the line of sight spooking mechanics from classic, hybridized with cotw's camoflauge system would be nice. Certain aspects of animal behaviour are better in classic.

Also the way need zones are handled should be redone, all the current games just borrow from Cabelas BGH Pro Hunts. Animals shouldn't drink for 4 hours, they shouldn't chew the same blade of grass everyday either. Classic on the other hand is too random to be realistic.

They refuse to say. They said they refuse to really say much of anything because the last game they communicated the players were unhappy for some reason. This came straight from one of the devs mouths.
