I tried the game but the run speed was slower than fallout new vegas

Sounds very money-grabbing.

You ever played any of the Cabela Safari games?
Although some are pretty poor quality (particular African Safari), they're quite a bit of fun and hilarious too.
Sounds similar, but not so linear and mission based, as Cabela is.

It pretty much is more of a money grabbing game, almost everything costs real money, but it's a well made game nonetheless. It's definitely one of the more realistic hunting games I've played.

It has multiplayer in the open world that you can join in and coop hunt with friends.

Some of the customization options/limitations bug me, though. Not able to put a long range scope on a shotgun fitted with slugs? Hardly any scopes that have adjustable zoom? 3-9x? No thanks. My cheap scope I use on my shotgun irl is 1x-12x which is very useful. Little oversights like that kinda get at me.

I agree with this.
Very well made, very much a money grabber.
but strangely I haven't been able to put it down...
If anyone is a member or who is going to be one, PM me on forums and I'll add you :)

Graphically I'd say that game excels beyond imagination for realism, at least 90% of the time.
However, gameplay-wise, I'd recommend http://store.steampowered.com/app/247770/ more.
Outside of that, yes, it's covered in money grabbing.

I have concluded this game is actually really realistic, addictive and fun.

Final conclusion:
Its is fun if you can afford ita bit like cocaine



Can you see me? :o

I remember getting that for the PS2.

That loving lion....

<month membership

<pay RL $ for guns on top of that

This sounds like it's not worth it

it entirely depends on your definition of "worth it"

In the past few days I've bought membership (£11), and 2000 game money (£16)
I've now got:
The best clothing
A good rifle
A scope for said rifle
A basic shotgun
A basic revolver
A bigger bag (to carry two rifles)
unlimited ammo for all the guns (membership standard)
license to kill all animals.

Literally having the best time on this game. So in total I've spent £27 on this game, and I've pretty much got all I want. I'm saving up money from kills to buy a new shotgun, so I probably wont be spending any more real life money.
I legit think this game is worth the money I've spent, however, acceptable prices is all relative to how much money you have IRL.

If you have the money for this game, and enjoy realistic hunting style games, get it.
I haven't played much hunting games before, in fact, I've never played one, but I guess the closest game to this is DayZ. Big fan of hunting players in DayZ? get this.

can you shoot other players

Lets just pretend you didnt say that.
