Deer Hunter Classic Reviews

Had this game for a while, got way up in stats and for some reason when I tried to do PVP it vanished and always notes “can’t connect to server”. Can’t watch videos to get gold anymore, it’s all adds you have to pay for so I decided to delete and reinstall. Same thing, got back up to high stats then PVP vanished and get the “can’t connect to server”. So last night I deleted and reinstalled once more. Everything was going fine, it let me do the PVP intro one time and then poof! Can’t connect to server… Even though it’s a free game, almost not worth the time of downloading unless you just want something to pass the time on the toilet. And even then, unrolling TP is at least consistent.

Im on standard 3 (yes don’t laugh at me) and there is an elite hunt. I decided to try it once I saw that it gave me the Westin Warfighter Elite. I go through to level 10 pretty easily and get the .45 Frosty or whatever it’s called. I thought the prices were too high to upgrade but whatever, I’m still having fun so I continue. I get to level 20, it was pretty challenging but I had a lot of sports drinks and animal calls so I got the shotgun. At this point I was disappointed at myself because I had already upgraded the Maginot Marauder to max in everything and tier 2, the shotgun I got looked really cool too but it was also expensive so I moved on. From level 20-30 was hell for me, by this time I had no sports drinks and one animal call, I was pretty much waiting for the daily bonus to give me something so I have the slightest chance against some of the levels. Do they really expect me to get 3 lung shots on running, I repeat, RUNNING deer in 20 seconds? The answer is yes. In my opinion all you have to do is make the reward higher so I get motivated to keep going and if I stop I’ll leave a ton of goodies I could’ve gotten. I don’t thing 6 platinum coins is enough for hunting 2 albino caribou who react immediately to your shots, while trying to get lung shots on them so you don’t fail the mission, which believe me, you will, over and over again.

A complete money pit. It's designed to make you waste your money and time. You can't even get high winning streaks on "multiplayer" because it's designed so that the animals become 2 shots even if your gun is max upgraded. And the multiplayer isn't even multiplayer. It's set up to look like your playing over people, but your not. You are playing an AI. Don't believe me? Try pausing in the middle of a "multiplayer" game. Can you pause you AND your opponent in a legit multiplayer game? Of course not. This game is rigged. Used to be alright, but it seems the developers got greedy. Also, if you erase DeerHunterClassic , you loose EVERYTHING. There's not way to save your progress. Restore purchases does nothing at all. Do not waste your life on this game.

UPDATE. THE MENU DOESENT WORK. ITS FROZEN. I CANNOT DO ANYTHING PN DeerHunterClassic AFTER THE UPDATE. GARBAGE APP. DO NOT USE.

During the head -to-head mode (hunter vs. hunter) I notice there is a player who I go against, but he never shows up on the list of players in the 10/12 day competitions. I have over 40,000 points, and within hours “PCWIZZ” has more points than me. This, at 25 points per win, would take continuously playing the game for over 24 hours. It’s impossible to do in 2 to 3 hours. The reason...we’ll, the prizes for 1st place are 3x more gold bars, and more. Second, 2x.., etc. It keeps the developers from having to give out gold bars...they much prefer you buy them! I’ve won quite a few hunts, but it seems the more I win, the more this occurs. I don’t like to lose, I don’t like a loaded deck, wasting my time, and I cannot stand cheaters. That’s exactly what they are…FACT!

by ThomasIOSReviews

It’s a fun game, but it becomes extremely repetivw trying to level up. Obviously this is done in hopes you spend real money to huy their in game currency. I understand they are trying to make money, but they’ve taken it to the extreme.

Also, I would like to play this on the plane in airplane mode, but it needs an internet connection even after preloading maps. The only reason I can think of for it to need an internet connection is to download and show ads.

If they made it easier to level up without extreme grinding I would probably play it more. In the PvP modes it doesn’t make sense for the animals to continually get harder to kill the more you win. Again this is to make it harder for you to win the in game currency in the hope you spend real world money.

Ever since I upgraded to iOS 11 this game has all kinds of weird quirks. For a little while it let me hunt the trophy hunts with a far underpowered rifle. Then it suddenly changed and, even with gun that exceeds every requirement for the hunt it tells me I need a different rifle. When I click on the "go to weapon shop" link on the hunt page it sends me to the shotguns, or the pistols, or even the bows, but it never actually shows me what rifle I need to have. This has even happened after buying and upgrading the exact rifle listed for that level. It also randomly turns on the music app and plays music in my library. It's still a fun game, but I find myself opting for other games a lot more lately because I never know what weird thing it will do.

What a shame. A game that I’ve enjoyed playing for about three years is just junk now. I’ve managed to finish all the hunts and don’t mind the ridiculous contract hunts required to buy the overpriced weapons needed. I don’t mind the hoops jumped through to get gold bars needed for event hunt weapons. Even the jerky glitches that make targeting difficult though annoying can be endured. But for the last few weeks the game shuts off after three hunts or less. It had been happening after playing for a while but now it takes longer to restart than play the three hunts. If this is intentional by design to deter free play, job well done. I’ll just delete the game. Again what a shame.

by Dankmemer69h3h3

started the game with a new profile and 3,000 platinum eagles. care to explain why the starting bow costs 6,000? with the reward per mission being 2-3 platinum eagles? regardless, i ended up buying the hand cannon (region 25 weapon btw. i was on region 2 when i remembered it existed) with 1,000 platinum eagles, and now have around 2,062. i remember playing this game when it came out as a little kid and absolutely loving every minute i played it, but now it seems like i cant progress without spending money. much less PLAY the parts of the game that just dont exist anymore, i.e. the pistol series, and special events. if anyone is still working on this game, please just try make the platinum rewards for the other series events better so i can actually play this game.

I am thrilled with the excitement of the various levels of the hunt. Each level is engaging, to say the least and challenging as well.
However, as a player for years and just returning once again, I have to say that I am surprise as well as annoyed the persistent crashing on every level that I have achieved and have lost numerous bonus gold bars on every level, as many as three at a time. I’m am currently on level 7 now. If the bonus hunt levels problems are address and fixed, as well as the annoying persistent crash are fixed and you are actually awarded what you achieved this would be an even better game.

The game is fun, but everything costs WAY too much! Like, I’m only on region 5 but I have a good amount of hunters bucks. I would be happy except you need a TONS of gold to do, like, anything, really. I don’t know if I’m the only one, but I feel like I have always had a lot of hunters bucks, but that almost never matters! Almost everything I’ve needed to buy is with gold-and a lot of it, too. On the plus side I think the game is pretty fun. When you are not focusing on having to buy something, the game is fun and enjoyable. I think if you just lower the price of some things a bit, your game would be even more enjoyable then it already is

Good game decent graphics fun to an extent you finally get your gun upgraded and you enter the next level you need a new gun 🙄 and then you go through the torture of paying for gold or free gold ... when you go through the free gold it’s like a 20% chance you will actually get your gold so stress level 10 .. I paid for gold bought the best gun I could and go figure I can’t afford to upgrade it 🙄 there should be an option to sell or trade in your gun on this game I think that would be way more fair

by BrowningXRS

So far a really fun game, feels like that old arcade one from years back. However I do feel there are certain things that somewhat make the game… shall we say deterring. One being the upsurd prices that some of the guns are. That doesn’t seem as bad though since it provides a long term goal and this is especially long term. My second major complaint is the energy system. I feel like it really limits the playing potential of the game and honestly seems to make me look in the direction of it being a cash grab mechanic. I mean, you have to wait 1 hour and 40 minutes for a full charge, or you could pay 10 gold to refuel in seconds. That also leads me to the free gold offers and deals. A lot of these offers look legit and I’m sure there are some in there that may be, but others seem a little shady to put it lightly. Otherwise, I think this is a grade A game and is really fun for killing time. Alright I’ll end my rant.

Super high quality graphics and gameplay, and a crazy amount of weapons!
It does get to a point where it seems almost pay to win because of how expensive everything is. I need a bow for the bow series and it is still 2,000 platinum eagles away lol. Guns are super expensive and upgrades are ridiculous, only for the gun to become obsolete in the next board. The ONLY thing i don’t like about the game is the expensiveness. Everything else is fantastic, especially gameplay and all the animations and the fact that there’s 65 regions! 7/10, just need the prices knocked down a bit.

This is one of my favorite mobile games it’s fun and at times challenging probably the best mobile hunting game but it could be better. The problem for me is the energy, why would you not be able to stack or even watch as many ads as you want to regain energy at it takes about 1 hour 40 minutes to recharge your energy and only half the time you can watch a ad or two to get some of your energy back. I feel the game would be perfect if your energy recharges a lot faster like maybe 1 energy per 2 minutes instead of 10, otherwise this game is amazing it has a lot of guns, bows and other weapons.

Alright. I overall like this game. However, the buckshot leagues get SO hard it doesn’t even seem playable anymore. You can only feel victory for a bit before you’re required to tier up your weapon or you have a 95.7% chance of losing EVERY. TIME! The Elite series is actually pretty ok. It’s a hard battle sure, but the rewards are pretty well worth it. If the player doesn’t have at least half a chance to win at the buckshot league, that signals there’s a core problem with the “event” but as someone else pointed out, the hunts get extremely REPETITIVE! The weapons look nearly identical and uninspired. Seriously deer hunter? So is it worth it? That is entirely up to you. Overall I give this game a 5/10.

I played this game growing up but never passed region 5 i re downloaded it since its one of my all time favorite games on app store. Im currently on region 6 and plan going even further. I like the game and i know the energy situation or how expensive guns and upgrades are those are situations i too wish could change. It would make the experience much more comfortable and better to play if those things could change. It would also make it easier and funner to make it through all the regions since i know there is currently 65 of them. I dont think i can make it that far but i really enjoy the game how it is right now BUT would enjoy it even better if those situations changed for the better.

by StormingReviews

This game is quite enjoyable, from the beginning until you can’t progress any further. I am irritated by how long it takes to load up when it starts. It says c”checking for updates” and “downloading” when there are no updates to be received. I downloaded the game and opened it from DeerHunterClassic Store and still checked for updates and downloaded updates, what did you update in 1.6 seconds glu? It also often crashes right after a hunt, taking my energy, but not giving my reward, oh and I have to deal with the load screens again. But the quality of the game play speaks for itself when you see four stars despite my complaints.

It's a great game in so many aspects and it's actually a stress reliever. Me and my fiancée
play all the time, literally. We love it, but on the flip side. The weapons are too expensive and
it's too costly to upgrade once you buy an expensive weapon to continue moving on to
different boards, but at the same time I respect the fact that the game isn't easy to beat
either. If you're a competitive person then this is the game for you. I'm VERY competitive
and it makes the game even more exciting to play. I just suggest that you guys make the
weapons a little more affordable and the leave upgrades the same. I don't mind paying for
upgrades if I can buy any gun I want. Another thing, "2 of everything" consumables should
be available at all times for $10,000. That'll make the game much better. Cons - 33mil for a
gun that's only gonna take me to 2 boards? Come'on man that's absolutely ridiculous. It's
highway robbery actually. Plus you guys are charging hundreds of thousands & millions of
dollars to upgrade the gun. Smh what exactly are the gamers playing for? Why are we saving
up money doing several hunting series and contract hunts to only be robbed by you guys
pricey weapons & upgrades system? Changes are needed immediately. Pros - It's fun to
play, great graphics and details.

It’s a very fun game and I have a lot of experience with this game and the others but I have a problem I’m always hunting and it’s pretty fun but I wish you didn’t lose energy doing hunts,I think it would be nice if you only lost energy IF you failed or died in a hunt and in my opinion that would make the game a bit more fun because I don’t like having 10 energy slots that last 5:00 minutes just to wait a hour just to hunt 10 more times again just to loop, it would be nice so that we can continue playing this game, this is so Players don’t have to constantly play a waiting game after They’re done hunting, plus it would give this game a bit more action and kick to it you know? That or make it to where you have more energy slot’s thank you for reading this and I hope your games continue to do good thank you and Bon Voyage!

Love hunting 🦓🐆🦒 I’m in area 10 I love the dogs that u can get and I love the PVP mode because I outshot One person by a mile I especially love the hippos but The guns are too expensive in my opinion I was just trying to get a regular bow and it cost $3,256,000 it’s crazy how expensive they are it’s annoying as well because when you think you are done upgrading the weapon it adds another upgrade for the trophy hunt and I have another account I am In Area 30 in that one But Overall Great game dude

This was a fun game that my son and I played all the time, but this most recent update has made it unusable on my iPhone 7. My phone has already been updated, and I even went through and updated all the regions in the game that I have previously completed... It is now very glitchy, and it's a bummer.
If they fix the glitches, I'd give it 5 stars!

Here are some of the new glitches I've noticed:
-Today, I attempted to open the game (just as I did successfully last night), and it would not let me open it until it updated. I shouldn't have to update every time I open it! If I chose to play a game knowing it hasn't been updated, Ecuador I like it the way it is, I shouldn't be required to update just to even open the game! (I did update, and a mess of glitches ensued).
-I have full energy, but when I go to do a hunt, it tells me "Hunting requires energy" and the only option is "Cancel"!
-I have completed 12 regions, and if I try to scroll back to look at previous regions, it auto-scrolls all the way to Region 1. When I try to scroll back forward in regions, it skips all the way to Region 14, which I have not even started yet.

Well you’ll get them here! I’d say maybe 50/50 gameplay to ads. That is unless you want to get ahead a little bit, and then it can be 20% gameplay and 80% ads so you can get “free” gold. Whatever you do don’t spend actual money on the game as I did while playing it on my last phone to get a quicker jumpstart to the game. I then went on to earn everything. Only to find out that for some unknown reason DeerHunterClassic developer claims it is not possible to move your progress or PURCHASES to a new phone... That’s like a furniture store showing up to repossess my furniture, because I moved. Unbelievable, but if you want to give these thieves your money have at it.

At first the game is fun, interesting, and challenging, but after that it starts to get very boring and repetitive. Weapons cost way too much and last for a few days at most. I think the game needs new designs for the guns and the trophy hunts. After beating a couple of regions, you get different guns, however the guns look the same, only with different color. Trophy hunts have the same animal and the same description after beating a couple of regions. Everything gets repetitive as well. After going to a new region, it’s always the same trophy hunt, contract hunt, and rifle series, and also rare hunts are gone after beating like region 14 or something, I don’t exactly know. At least give us an event in every new region that isn’t the same as any of the previous regions, be creative. Overall the game is just fun for a little bit, and gets very boring. I do understand that it’s very difficult to create or add to a game, but I do believe that the developers could add a little more effort and time, because it does seem like they are lazy and just copy and paste everything. I don’t want to play this game anymore until everything I mentioned gets fixed, because right now, I think the game is really boring and isn’t very fun.

by Jeremy The Fortnite Player

I like this game and think it is really fun. The only problem I have is that the graphics are not amazing. But otherwise it’s like it really puts me in the world of hunting. I love hunting and this game is just like it. You get to get different types of guns with over 100 species!!!!!! You can’t tell me that doesn’t sound fun!!😍😍 This game is just awesome and I love it!!!!! I really hope you read this review and if you don’t I will be sad because I spent a lot of time pouring my heart into this!

Dear deer hunter classic,
I think I have some ideas for more downloads, My first idea is fully automatic guns, the m134 mini gun or those fully automatic ARs with straight magazines or drum magazines, My next idea is stand shooting with you shooting out of a deer stand, My third idea is multiplayer shooting, you have friends to add and you can hunt with them, My last idea is throwing knifes for power ups like the hollow shot and the energy drink with you can deal the damage with a animal
