Huge disappointment
So most of my suspicions were true unfortunately. More and more players reported lack of realistic rack system and just an arcadish style of this game. Monster bucks everywhere, no trophy shots, no global competitions. They have had such a experience from TheHunter Classic and still this game is a fail, another Cabela shoot everything that moves hunting simulator.

That make me so sad, I had such a high hopes for that game...

:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(

I agree with you. What a disappointment! I don't understand why they would keep out the best features of the old game....smh.....hopefully they can add those features on in future. I'm really disappointed with the no truRACS. Makes no sense!

yeah but its not a alpha or beta, its a full release. Back in my day a game was finished on release!

I hope devs will add more content.
It's a release, ok. The reward system in-game( money, XP, etc...) is so weird.There's lack of weapons,equipement,etc.., and you need a lot,lot,lot,lot,lot xp to reach the required level to unlock the stuff. And now, you have lack of money............

Weird, weird

Wow, people just complainging about Call of the Wild not being theHunter: Classic. Thats just stupid.
The Devs did not promise a rack system like in Classic, they did not promise trophy shots or global competitions. And still people complain about this. Both game share the same player base but they are not the same game, there would be no point in that.

Well it seems obvious to me that people wanted, and expected a non subscription based, graphically updated version of TheHunter Classic.

For now, i think its too early to tell.

I mean, yes, the game is more arcade syndrome, yes, its watered down, yes the animals are basically hunting themselves and begging to be shot, screaming everywhere, all the time, cant roam more than 20seconds, "BLRUEGHH" deers, does, bears, all at one place...

But....

The hunter classic didnt start off on a rainbow start either, it did take some time to progress, and digest, ask anyone from the old days, before it even went to steam...

Itstrue though, they do need to listen to the feedback now, ok we get it, its rushed out, its missing key components, its still got issues....

If devs acknowledge this, and promise to stay true to implementing the fixes/systems needed (look at what they done with MP in classic, noone expected it, and it took time, but it came!), then i say stick with it.

If you are already sold on the Classic, then no need to complain, cause guess what, its still there, aint going nowhere.

But im gonna stick with this, ill play it, do the missions, do what needs to be done, and hang hold on seeing if theres a reply on "Yes ok, we plan on this guys...", and hope that TruRAc, bugs, AI, spacing, and just overall a more immersive feeling comes back into play, like the classic had.

Oh....and MP - come on devs, thats some nonsense with the whole "Host only!" stuff.

People want to SHARE a coop experience, together, as a group, not on individual playthroughs.

I have been reading reviews and just waiting to see what people say because I do not have the money right now but based on the reviews and what you guys said, I am going to wait for it come down in price.

And yet when i repeatedly brought these missing systems up in the beta, people said my views weren't representative of most classic players lol... well it turns out people DO care about competitions and trophy shots... and placable equipment... and truRACS

They need to just remaster The Hunter Classic with this game engine and sell as a standalone game. Would be huge. With no subscription. Only thing the Classic is missing is updated graphics.

Tbh, i think at one point, thats what they thought they where doing with this.

I think when it got to late, they probably realized, but it was too late to turn back!

All you guys that say it has just been released and that its not thehunter classic should shut the ♥♥♥♥ up. The devs obviously have a lot of experience when it comes to developing a hunting simulator and they ♥♥♥♥♥♥ this up for now. They gave us better graphics and thats it. The thehunter community gave them a lot of feedback and the devs should know what the players want. Yet they decide to leave out beloved features like competitions and truRacs. I know I know....its a "new" game....but it isnt an improvement, its not even on par with thehunter classic, they made 5 steps backwards when they decided to release it in this state. This is an early-access title marketed as a full release with very limited features (I dont talk about map/animal/weapon variety). As a long time thhunter player its a big disappointment, the community expected a graphicaly enhanced thehunter classic version with less content but the same amount of features. Why do we even give them feedback when they just ignore it.

It seems to me that they are trying to use this game as a one of purchase to get people interested in the more realistic, subscription based, hunter classic. This is why this game will probably never have the same features hunter classic does.

Whilst I agree with most of what you say in other posts this one I completley disagree, TheHunter had the same realistic feel the original developers had intended from day one to this day just with more content. This is clearly the route these developers wanted to take and I highly doubt they will make any substantial changes maybe one day they will but from past experience the game they make is the game you get bugs included, they just got lucky classic was already made before they started the takeover (got their hands on it).

Meh, I bought it. Gonna try it out myself. If i don't like it and the devs don't make a statement about fixing the game by adding truRac etc I will probably refund it.
