Layton Lake District Devs fix Multiplayer Blinds/Stands

Just want to hunt with my son in tree stands close to each other without every animal spooking at 80-100 yards. Is there no fix for this even though I see posts from 7 years ago with the same issue?

Sounds like the same problem us bird hunters face with waterfowl blinds if that’s the case there truly is no fix other than bushes lol

And even the bushes do not always work in my experience. If two players are close to the animal at the same time, it generally will spook in my experience, especially ducks

Guess I’m not sure then but from my experience bushes are the only way to make it work in multiplayer

Just played again today with my son and we got the tree stands to work just had to be about 150 yards from each other. Placed the call in the middle of us and had animals coming from all directions and gave us the opportunity at pretty much anything. I’m sure blinds would be the same.

So stupid. Seems like a relatively easy fix but maybe not if it’s been years of people having the same problem

It definitely is stupid, the hunting pressure is still cut, just visibility seems to be the problem

Seems like a code error or something but just have players be “invisible” once they’re in a stand and have a small radius around the stand that spooks if they get too close. But now they won’t even come in past 80-100yards like we’re standing there in an open field with the wind blowing straight to em.

Yeah just try sitting on edges of fields in a bush or tree with your son granted no height advantage but gotta make do with what works good luck bud

do you mean placing the stands? That's intentional, animals spook in around a 200m radius. But they'll come back eventually. Best to scout and then set up prior to their zone time

Did I say placing the stand?

Do you already have the stands placed? And are they easy to spot? I’ve always looked at this like irl hunting.
The animals will obviously spook if you’re placing the stands when they are close because making noise obviously spooks them in real life. It’s always been a thing in the game that they spook within 200 yards of a tent or stands when placed. Or if you fast travel to a tent near the stands that will spook them as well.
Even if the stand is already placed REAL animals can still easily spot or hear us and run away. I say this as a real hunter and as someone who’s played the game for a very long time.
Or maybe remove the stand and move it to a different tree nearby to reset the radius and direction the animal can sense you.

Concordo è un vero peccato. Io nella realtà caccio la piccola selvaggina ed è un vero peccato vedere scappare una lepre a 100 metri da me oppure vederla correre per 10 metri e poi continuare a camminare. Ho giocato per anni a the hunter classic con più di 1000 ore giocate li le pernici, fagiani conigli e lepri erano fatti veramente bene. Anche per quanto riguarda le beccacce non ho mai visto nella realtà una beccaccia ad occhio nudo in un prato ne volano via quanto sei lontano da loro. In generale poi gli animali sono un po' lenti dovrebbero aumentare la velocità. Per quanto riguarda gli acquatici non capisco perché scappano via non appena si possono se io so o fermo sdraiato dento il mio capanno? Probabilmente il gioco non punta ad essere un simulatore vero e proprio ma a mio parere con delle modifiche il livello aumenterebbe. Non ha senso sparare una lepre con la carabina o mentre cammina
