The Parking Lot.... [deer reacting to calls]
Just wanted to throw out there that I believe the calling for Whitetails is kind of off and not to realistic. I have been hunting Whitetails IRL for 18 years. Now I understand the need for the animal to react to a call and that the curiosity of the animal is what brings them in, BUT I am noticing that when I call to a deer that deer comes and parks under my tree. Once that deer starts to leave and more come in I call again and now I got 2 parked under my tree and the slingshot effect continues. I have had up to 5 deer directly under my stand like a parking lot of deer.
My suggestion
Make deer react to call, but establish a curiosity no closer than 25-30m from player location.

I agree. And make reaction probability, reaction times, incoming paths, area of attraction and duration of staying attracted upon reaching the target more random.

Re: The Parking Lot....

Re: The Parking Lot....
Completely agree. The way animals respond to calls and lures is the most unrealistic part of the game.
