The seventh game in the popular hunting series for the PC, Cabela's Big Game Hunter: 2004 Season features 24 game animals to track and hunt in their native environments. Artificial intelligence causes animals to react in a variety of ways based on their level of aggression, daily routines, and senses of smell, sight, and hearing. Animals randomly spawn in one of eight outdoor settings, which feature various terrains.

Seasonal changes and varying weather conditions affect each location's terrain. Hunters also must deal with time of day changes, since animals become more difficult to track at night. Weather and time of day can also affect a hunter's health, so players must ensure their character's eat and drink enough in order to avoid injury from animal attacks.

Multiplayer modes allow up to four players to compete over the Internet and up to eight over a LAN. Players will hunt with both bows and guns, which all feature realistic physics in recoil and ballistics. Vehicles are also included so that hunters may traverse the large maps at a faster pace.

Activison Value has brought us a fun hunting game to the PC. Big Game Hunter 2004 gives us the opportunity to hunt 24 big game animals found throughout North America from the comforts of home. Dall Sheep, Wild boar, Mountain Lions, Bears, Mule and White tail deer, and the list goes on. You have a ton of gear at your disposal including 15 different guns, and 3 bows. Calls, scents, shelters, stands, etc. give the hunter a true sense of what he or she will need in the many locations to fill their tags. There are plenty of environments and a variety of terrains that you will be hunting that is found throughout North America. From the wide-open plains of Montana, to the thick mountainous forests of British Columbia, to the deserts of Arizona, and a few more in between, the maps are nicely detailed and weather environments play an important role. You also have the ability to choose the season to hunt as well.

You can choose the type of game to play. A quick hunt lets you choose any animal at any location that you have previously unlocked in career hunt mode, with no impact on resources. You can practice firearm and item usage, learn more about a region and apply this in a complete hunt. Career hunt you play a complete hunt, unlocking locations one by one, respecting all hunting regulations and carefully managing your resources. This might sound just dandy to some, but me personally got a bit hot under the collar.

Ok I go out and spend some hard-earned cash to get pumped up for the upcoming hunting season. Figure I will practice on some white tail deer hunting. I really don't care about the location so much, but I do care about the game I'm hunting. I've just installed the game to find when I go to create my character there is not even my age group available in a male body. Example I can choose a teenager or someone in there mid 40's or 60's but NO mid 30's. Sure, I can pick a female in her mid 30's but my name is not Biffolina. Ok so I pick the female body just for giggles because I AM 30 something. I go to pick my white tail deer as the game to pursue, just to find out I have to unlock it first. Same goes for the location. Ok now I'm getting frustrated, I figure I'll play along and play the career mode on easy just to get through. I did say easy right? Well if that is easy, I won't even try hard. Yes you at least get to see where the trophy game is at by a glowing red dot. Other than that it is tough as hell. The animals have a super sense of knowing that you are within like 200 yards and take off running. I have tried to sneak up on an opposite mountain side with the wind in my face and still no luck. I was only successful by blasting by on a four wheeler, jumping off and firing frantically. Yes I filled some tags of animals I did not want to bother hunting, but this is by no means the way any ethical hunter or myself would hunt. After many hours of gameplay I was able to get a few trophies under my belt by hoofing it all over creation and back. This of course took a lot of time but did at least feel more realistic.

Another problem that I had with the game is the money aspect. Ok I can deal with having a limited amount of funds available to purchase items with. I'm all for being fined for breaking hunting regulations. My beef is that you get a dollar bonus for harvesting a trophy animal. We are talking hundreds here. To me this conveys killing for money. I do not like it one bit. Sure in the real world if you kill a record class animal, you may find people wanting you to endorse their products, but this is not what hunting is about, nor should we convey this to people or youngsters that are being introduced to the sport. The expert tips were a nice way to get an idea on how the game reacts and ways to hunt them. This is a great feature especially for game you are not familiar with. Which in my case was most of the game.

With that being said, the graphics are quite astounding. When a storm blows in the clouds just look plain awesome and realistic. The trees, bushes and grass all move in the wind which makes lining up a long distance shot difficult yet true to life. The sound effects were all great except the hard to control four wheeler. Sounded more like a chainsaw then a two-stroke power horse. The problem with the four wheeler and the snowmobile is that if you crash it you're out of luck and you are on foot for the rest of the hunt. Unfortunately this happens all too often. But hey, I guess you can't have everything.

Deer Hunter 2004 Review

- Review by Brandon

Deer Hunter 2004 is an extremely realistic hunting simulation game that is a good choice for players who love everything about hunting. You select where and when you want to hunt, as well as the weapons and gear you'll use. You can create your own hunter and improve your skills through bagging better deer. You can even take your skills online and compete against other players. This game has all the elements necessary to create an authentic and entertaining hunting experience.

Create a Hunter and Get Shootin

Before you can actually begin hunting in Deer Hunter 2004, you'll need to create a hunter. There are quite a few options available when it comes to customizing. You pick the name, select the look and clothing, and distribute points into various categories that improve your hunter abilities. You can change how well you fire weapons, hide your presence from the deer, track animals, and more.

Once you've got a hunter, you can select a location to hunt and the gear you want to use. You'll begin your hunt in that area and can kill and collect (bag) up to three deer. You can bag one doe (adult female deer) and two bucks (adult male deer). Once you've got all three, your hunt is over and you can begin a new hunt. You can hunt alone, or go online and play with others. However, since Deer Hunter 2004 is an older game and Deer Hunter 2005 has been released, there really isn't anyone online to play.

Pick Your Location and Season

There are a total of six different locations where you can hunt ranging from the Kentucky farmlands to the Oregon Valley. While these are large and diverse maps to play, it would have been nice to have a few more options to choose from. When picking a location, you can also select one of three seasons, which will change how effective calls and lures can be.

You can change the time of day and weather as well, all of which will affect the appearances and behavior of deer. For example, deer will often be found near water sources later in the day, or out in the open on sunny days. Not only can you hunt in these locations, but there's even an option to observe the deer in these locations with the Wildlife mode, which can give you valuable information for your hunts.

Difficulty Settings

There are three different difficulty levels offered in Deer Hunter 2004. These difficulties give you the ability to find a hunting experience that's right for you. One downside when it comes to difficulty and playing the game is just the amount of time you might need to hunt down and collect all these deer. You'll need a lot of patience to find the best deer or to camp out and lure them to you.

No Tutorial Makes the Learning Curve Steeper

The biggest problem for Deer Hunter 2004 is the total lack of any sort of tutorial or manual. When you first start the game, you're left to basically figure everything out on your own. This can be challenging, especially for people unfamiliar with hunting. While many items have simple descriptions that tell you what they do, they don't tell you how to properly use them. Pulse secure download mac sierra 10.13. You might see that a certain scent attracts bucks, but no idea when or where to use it. A general hunting guide or tutorial of any kind would have been tremendously helpful.

Another related issue is illegal hunting actions. You are given no warning or information on these beforehand, but actions like shooting a swimming deer or killing too many in a single hunt will turn your hunt into an illegal one that will not reward points or trophies. It's a great realistic touch, but annoying when you aren't aware of it beforehand.

Controls Are Fairly Basic

Despite the lack of a tutorial, the controls themselves aren't all that complicated (especially for players familiar with first-person shooters). You move with the WASD keys, select weapons or gear with keys 1-10, look around with the mouse, and fire with the Left Mouse button. More advanced controls affect your speed or let you use vehicles. All of the controls are visible and can be changed in the game settings.

Strong Presentation

The presentation in Deer Hunter 2004 is one of the best parts of the game. The deer are detailed and realistic not only in their behavior, but in the way they look as well. The environments, while not as well done as the deer, are still authentic and detailed. The environments are quite large and filled with many kinds of plants and animals (not just deer).

The sounds play their part as well. The animal calls are realistic in their noises, and you can tell when you've messed up a call. You'll hear the sounds of bows and gunshots you fire. You can even hear the sounds of your own footsteps as you hunt. The whole presentation really improves the game and draws you into the action.

Conclusion - A Decent Hunting Game, Not as Good as 2005 Edition

Overall, Deer Hunter 2004 would be an good game for anyone who has a strong interest in hunting. However, Deer Hunter 2005 is available for you to play as well. Deer Hunter 2005 is very similar to Deer Hunter 2004, but with many improvements (like more gear to use) and different locations to hunt. While this is still a fun game, it is less desirable as a result. If you enjoy hunting you can still give this game a try and see if it's right for you, but a better game might be available.
