Frequently Asked Questions

How do I shoot on Mac?

For Mac users, equip your gun and right-click quickly to maintain the aiming position. This workaround helps with Mac-specific control issues.

What’s the best shooting distance?

The optimal shooting distance is 200 meters. This provides the best balance of accuracy and effectiveness for most weapons.

How do I efficiently hunt animals?

The best approach is to aim for vital organs (right above the front legs for deer), use appropriate weapons for each animal type, and master the stealth approach.

Can I teleport for free?

Yes! Press M to open the map, then select “EXIT TO MAIN MENU” and choose your destination. This bypasses the paid teleportation system (requires all locations unlocked).

How do I hunt Canada Geese?

Canada Geese can only be hunted while flying in flocks. You must use shotguns (Mossberg or Benelli) and shoot them above land to prevent them from falling in water.
