Definitely full screen and with the speakers quite loud.
Headphones when everyone else is sleeping though.

Re: How do you play the Hunter?
Headphones, fullscreen in the dark. I note down hunt objectives by the hand on the piece of paper for quick reference, but occasionally look for info on the tablet. I have also mapped all the "walking" controls to diferrent buttons on my multi-button mouse (freelook, autowalk on/off, running, binoculars, huntermate...) so during the walking periods in the game, I can just lean back on the chair and control everything by mouse, with one hand only - getting back to the keyboard only when animal approaches...very relaxing

I either have a classic country music compilation from YouTube, Pandora, or a traditional archery podcast by The Push playing in the background.

Re: How do you play the Hunter?
I have listened through the bible twice already. Also I have run out of comedy shows on Youtube from the US, UK, Germany, etc. Suggestions welcome.
Lots of forum and Steam reading and Wiki editing while playing as well. We have so much time to do stuff in between animals.

Re: How do you play the Hunter?
Just one screen (24'', 1920x1080, fullscreen - nothing but the game). Headphones, cranked up. Logitech Gaming Mouse and the "G13 Advanced Gameboard" with a million of extra buttons and my personal configuration - never need to touch my "regular" keyboard. Sometimes when sitting in a stand I check the forums from my phone. A pot of tea at my desk - or a cold beer/glass of wine in the evening. Wife in the next room and she knows she needs to yell if she wants to talk. Usually wants to talk only when a trophy or rare is in sight.

Re: How do you play the Hunter?
I am a tea drinker as well (hot & neat (no sugar or cream)) & typically have a cup when I am playing or a fine beer in the evening. I use a Razer mouse & keypad so I never have to touch my keyboard either. Ironically my wife is always surprised I cant hear her with my headset on & gets miffed that she has to yellTanngnjostr wrote:Just one screen (24'', 1920x1080, fullscreen - nothing but the game).

Full screen and no distractions. I like to dream I'm really there.

That's a really good idea! Maybe I'll give that a try.HooCairs wrote:I have listened through the bible twice already.

Re: How do you play the Hunter?
I have 2 monitors also, most of the time while ingame the 2nd one is idle. Sometimes the forums are open there but I get tired of pausing the game. I also have 2 40" TV's ahead of me, usually a sporting event of some sort on one. Depending on the schedule sometimes there is a game on both TV's, or some old sitcom. A lot of the time I'll have one TV on but muted & I'm listening to a book on the Kindle.
