Animation suggestions go here:

I checked out another game this past week due to my extended vacation from work. Cabela's Big Game Hunter Pro Hunts. All of their games remind me of duck hunt for the most part. This one not as much as others. Being said they seem to be on to something. All I can say is that the "animal animations" seem to have greatly surpassed thehunter. The deer on their maps are on a mission!! Although I'm not real sure to what that is due to the lack of freedom on that game. The animals are disturbingly fluid in their motions and gestures. They appear extremely realistic and highly aware of their surroundings.

As I stopped playing "TheHunter" because of the mentioned realism problems I mentioned in a other thread (http://forum.thehunter.com/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=65236) I also gave Cabela's Pro Hunts a shot - and I was suprisingly amused! Great animation, good spooking system and even the weapon balance works better! The only cons were the diversity of antlers and the "small" hunting ground compared to the huge maps of TheHunter.

All I can say is if Cabela's Pro Hunts would have a good multiplayer, TheHunter would be in serious truoble...

I saw Cabela`s videos on Youtube, guy commenting my hunting all the time telling me what to do and slow motion bullets like in Sniper Elite

When you spot an animal, where it says gender, it either says male or female. I think that this should be a it more specific. For example, when spotting a mule deer, instead of male or female, it should say buck or doe, or with an elk, instead of male and female, say bull and cow. Just a suggestion.

Yeah, but some non-hunting people wouldn´t understand.

Yeah, I guess that you're right.

theHunter is the most realistic hunting simulation out there?!
It should totally state elk/buck cow/doe... rather than just male and female.

Retrievers should wag their tails up sometimes.

Welcome to the team.

The 50cal muzzleloader's loading animation shows the ball offset from the barrel and the ball stays in view even as the ram rod is packing it down.

I think you could sell a lot of re-skinning of weapons. Have different color options, and camo finishes. I would love an "old used" look to my 30-06. color variations on the stock, some scratches, etc.

For our new dogs, they should watch thier owners more, wag thier tails more, maybe even shake the water off after a swimming retrieve.

Now the most important animation that needs to be improved is the Hunter crouching movement animation. We look just plain awful.

ok, I'm with you but what about a male phasant isn't that a ****?

Censorship starts when you can't write the zoological correct term for a male chicken in a hunter game forum

I don't konw if the game engine allows it, but when the dogs run or swim in circles their backs boodies look very stiff, would be great if their backs could have a bit more realistic look.

and btw., bit more realistic movements for the playermodels would be great also. maybe with some mo-cap anims for them?
