Hi.
I must say that I rarely get annoyed on things.
But this dog thing makes me really annoyed and angry even.
I bought a dog a while back since i spended to much time in the game tracking down winged animal.
A thing that sometimes almost are a impossible task since the huntermate trow "you" of in totally wrong directions now and then, track ends and cant be found
(I guess animals get adopted by aliens in the middle of it all)
So.. i read this wonderful text in the shop...
"The Scent Hound will help you to track down wounded animals that run off after an unfortunate wounding shot.
The Hound's extraordinary sense of smell can detect even the faintest blood track over long distances.
This young dog has received advanced training and is ready for the hunt.
And with more hunting experience it will grow to become a loyal and invaluable hunting companion."
And i invested in this wonderful help i needed, and this where going to make me spend more time hunting then tracking.
And then i woke up from becouse that is just a dream.
The dog is more or less useless and no im not playing a "train your dog game" im playing a hunter game and spended real money on a item that should be helping me.
But no it needs training "ok".
So it needs training fine... in the beginning it is worthless on tracking so the "help to track" disappeared in a distance.
I have trained it as much I can while tracking, but since im playing a hunting game and not a "Kennel sim" i don't do it all the time.
It is now lv 15 soon 16 and it is still totally crappy, looses tracks after 3-4 tracks.
Tracks slower snail on a soaped mirror.
And the sound is looping over and over and over again slaff slaff breath breath slaff slaff i now leave it at maximum distance 75m so i don't hear him.
Still att level 16 he runs around your legs when your runnning so he gets in the way.
No tracking ability, irritating noise when sneaking on a animal, and running around your feet when your run.
That is what you get when you spend 999 em$
That is what a "
This young dog has received advanced training and is ready for the hunt" is for the developers i guess.
Combine that with a huntermate that show fantasy directions (even at quite high tracking level) and disapering tracks that makes it impossible to find the animal.
There you got it... the perfect concept for frustration, and even thou I have quite a big patient a rage quite or two..
"This young dog has received advanced training and is ready for the hunt."
And earth is made of pancakes!
If you would send the text from the shop in a mail.
It would be counted as a ascam mail..
And well that's how i see about this dogs as well
Alt least i bought the west so he is now not a dog, he is a mule carrying things for me
Thats was my 5 cent on this sk called "blood hounds"
