Known Issues List

June 18, 2024


Updated: June 18, 2024

We have created a list of possible issues some players may experience with theHunter after the release of the Sundarpatan Nepal Hunting Reserve and its free Rhododendron Update. If you are having a problem that you would like to report, please refer to the list below first — we may already be aware of the issue and working to resolve it!

GAMEPLAY

  • If the Zeroing Perk is active, and the Player presses the “Use Skill” button while a non-weapon item is currently their active item, when they next switch to a Weapon, Zeroing will have reset to default (mid-range) and will not show the current setting in the UI until the “Use Skill” button is pressed again.
  • Crouching or going prone with the Rolleston .45 causes the camera to behave weirdly.
  • If the Player does not have any ranks of the Lightning Hands Perk, reloading the Tsurugi LRR .338 while crouching or prone will cause the camera to behave weirdly.
  • Birdshot rounds only show a single trajectory trace on the X-ray screen.
  • Xbox players who start the game before the update finishes (when Xbox displays ‘Ready to Play’) will see their gear limited to the standard starting equipment set. This prevents the player from receiving the .270 Stradivarius rifle for free. However, the rifle can still be bought in the store for the regular price of a .270 once the game installs completely.
  • Saltwater Crocodiles may be difficult to “Spot” from certain angles.
  • Feral Goats can run in circles while trying to flee in some places in Emerald Coast Australia.

DOG

  • On Playstation, the player’s active dog will appear in the basement of the Layton Lake Trophy Cabin.
  • Players might encounter an issue where they see a dog’s mouth sticking out of the body of the harvest it is carrying.
  • The Labrador Retriever can jump a bit too much when traveling in shallow waters.
  • Petting dogs in trophy lodges can cause some minor animation issues.
  • The dog may appear to hover when trying to navigate around large bird corpses like Turkeys.
  • The dog’s eyes may look odd under certain lighting conditions.
  • In multiplayer mode, there’s a minor chance that a player might not be able to see the retrieved harvest in another player’s dog’s mouth.

ANIMALS

  • Need Zone indicators on the Map will disappear after killing one of the animals associated with the Need Zone, even if there are other animals of the same type still using that Need Zone. The indicator will reappear if the Player rediscovers it by spotting or interacting with related clues.
  • Light Brown pumas shot prior to the Outback Update are invisible when placed in the trophy room on Parque Fernando.
    • Developer’s note: This has been a very challenging bug to fix. As of the Outback Update, anyone progressing this mission for the first time should see their trophies without issue. Unfortunately, players who have already placed a Light Brown Puma on the stand will still be stuck with an invisible trophy for now

WORLD

  • Players may fall out of the world in a certain spot on the ice south of Zverolova Hill on Medved.

UI

  • Players who unlink their APEX Connect accounts are not prompted to restore them on game launch. Accounts can still be restored through the Apex Connect Menu.

GRAPHICS

  • Players may notice a transparent, repeating ascending column while placing Ground Blinds.
  • Weird textures occasionally get rendered on static objects, particularly on Xbox.

AUDIO

  • Walking through locations with multiple different bushes may sometimes result in the audio sounds associated with moving through those bushes continuing to play after the Player has moved away from them.
  • Hog Deer sounds like Roe Deer.
  • Tripods do not make any noise when rotating.

If you’ve encountered an issue that’s not listed above, make sure to share it with us on Discord or via our support website.

Much appreciation, as always!
