Silver Ridge Peaks, or Savannah

It depends entirely on what you're looking to hunt. I will say that Silver Ridge Peaks might well be the best reserve in the game, but this is mostly because it is beautiful and has an awesome variety of animals.

If you're more interested in an entirely different suite of animals than something like Vurhonga Savannah or Cuatro Colinas may be your best bet.

If you tell me what kinds of animals you're interested in going after, I can recommend you a map if you'd like!

Hi m8,
I can advise you what not to get if that's a help?

My opinion is to avoid Medved Taiga and Parque Fernando.

Vurhonga Savannah is ok, but sometimes you don't see an animal for ages, then when you do find em there are hundreds.

Cuatro Calinas is a lovely map, but it's spoiled by having 3 animals cut and pasted from Hirschfelden (Red deer, Roe Deer and Wild boar) and also having 3 types of sheep/Goats, which haven't got any callers, this makes bow hunting a real chore.

Alaska is a truly beautiful map but is let down by too many predators, moose (yet again) and no small (Whitetail size) deer.

Silver ridge peaks is easy to hunt and would be my choice.

Having said that it has goats and sheep, plus bison and Pronghorn deer, all without a caller.
It's helped by the ability to take plenty of long shots (150 to 400m) on these animals plus there seem to be loads of animals everywhere :)

Ive only played a few hours of the game so im not sure what is best to hunt but from looking at the maps, hunting lions seems quite fun. Are they hard to kill? as im low level so i dont have strong guns or ammo types. Overall i just want a chill fun experience.

If you've only just started my advice would be to stick to Layton Lakes. It's an easy reserve to hunt with lots of animals.

Why not buy a weapon pack or two, they are cheap and you can use em immediately, with no in game cost, except for ammo :)

Lions are no joke, they'll 1 shot you, even the weakest. You don't have the firepower until you have a weapon that can do class 8 or 9 if I remember right. Layton is pretty easy, but I'm enjoying Silver Ridge. You can take down bighorn, goats, probably mule deer, maybe mountain lions(not nasty like african ones). Oh Africa has cape buffalo too, and last I knew they were hyper aggressive, built like a tank, and will wreck your day without a big enough gun!

i only just got the game and i brought all maps

it is just enjoyable using the atv exploring each map, so relaxing and for the price of each map,
sum maps take a good part of the day to drive around.

I love them all! But the latest reminds me the most of the old hunting games which I played. I'm a little surprised that we have only one new weapon.
Hovenberg Jun 26, 2020 @ 3:54am 
Cuatro Colinas and Alaska imo.
Carajote Jun 26, 2020 @ 4:54am 
best in what?
sakhlas Jun 26, 2020 @ 5:03am 
cuatro colinas you have 9 species but you ll have 2 callers
-The roe deer
-The predator 'jack rabbit" for wolf
You ll unlock other caller later(level 13 for board, and level 27 red deer) and it take time (30 to 60 hours)

SAVANNA you have 8 species you ll start with 2 callers.
-The buck"snort wheez" caller. With which you can hunt 3 different species (sprinbrok, blue wildebeast, lesser kudu)
-The predator 'jack rabbit" with which you can hunt 2 diffrents species (lion, and side-striped jackal)
-only at level 5 you unlock the anter ratler for gemsbock.
so with Savanna you can start hunting with caller 5 spécies and after few hours you ll can hunt 6 species with caller (hare and buffalo don't have caller)

ADVANTAGE of savanna gemsbok is easy to hunt and it give you lot of cash and believe me you'll need so much cash in this game !

For the last map Silver ridge yes it's a very good map but start with only 2 callers
you ll start with tukey caller's and deer "bleat caller" for mule deer.
and for elk caller its level 15 and for bear it's 25 (yes long time too)


Savanna is a good map. Not the best. But you starting the game and having A lot of species to hunt with caller quickly. Is just more pleasant. :) you'll hunt more animals so more xp and you'll unlock other callers most quickly(but it still long)

Wukon is the most beautiful imo

Don't forget that on Savannah you can also use the Antler rattler, which unlocks at level1 (I think).

Savannah has the best quest line in the whole game with the beautifully thought out ghost jackal quests :)
