Hyena juvenile spawn rate

I am on ps5 on the safari photo challenge.

Only the photo with the baby hyena left but i am like almost 40 hrs of searching only this specific animal . Very frustrating because i have seen 20 hyena pack (some time found one in one hour sometimes zero in 3 hrs) very diffocult and lucky to find and more frustrating never hyena cub with. This is terrible and almost impossible challenge.

You can’t put in the option of the fauna on ultra on ps5 only medium maybe is that the problem.

The guys on pc can use the dev mode.

Please make the spawn rate of hyena juvenille more up.

I have spend many hours on this and i erally want to complete this but i am so tired of research intensivity. It s like 1/500 at every try and a lot of consentration for nothing because kid spawn rate.

I have really enjoyed the others animals research, difficult but doable.

I’ve found myself in this exact situation. (but on PC)

Someone suggested to change the time and date to March, and then the next pack I found had a cub in its ranks!

Could you please let me know if this happens to you too?

I have seen this post before and have turned the date on 20 march after that found three or four packs of hyenas between yesterday and today but not cub… so i guess changing the date don’t work.

5 hrs of research from this morning. I was very lucky founding 6 packs of hyenas but always no juvenile.

I never thought I’d see anyone seeking baby hyenas in this sim.
I think it’s really cool that you can get that granular with the fauna!

The most frustrating achievement i have never seen they really need to do something with the juvenile hyena spawn rate.

Have you found a juvenile? I ran into 3 times to hyenas but of course no juvenile.

Also all hyena spawns are not on the same area for me.

I have searched many times on Ngurongoro crater but never appearad any more there after first appearance.

I have searched many times Etosha salt pan but after first appearance there never saw them again.

They always spawned on searching new locations on me.

I tried changing objectives just searching another animals but it didnt help though.

It is so senseless just wating for a spawn of the game.

Giraffes zebras hippos all them are spawning always but why not hyenas?

Developers come on change this ratio on PS5 or put a higher spawn setting.

Hi,

I have never find a juvenile hyena and i have found approximatively 60 packs of hyena on 80 hrs of research. At this point this is just a big disrespect for the player who have work on this achievement. Lot of work only frustration.

It’s better we request a higher spawn ratio for hyenas and juvenile hyenas such like as zebras, giraffes etc.

Just search for “microsoft flight simulator 2024 submit a request”.

I already wrote that hyena situation issue. It maybe better more players write to them. They may update it.

Already wrote too but have received an answer from a bot.

Thats interesting. I have been replying with a real person with our own words and sentences.

By the way how and where did you ran into 60 packs of hyenas?

I only saw 3 times only 2-3 hyenas. And they dont spawn at the previous locations anymore as i mentioned before.

This is going to make me crazy.

A higher spawn ratio for hyenas and juveniles is a must. They must update this.

An animal achievememt in a flight sim game. Very irrevelant.

Out of curiosity, which platform are you on?

North east ngorongo crater there is another one more little.put full snow and you will see very well the fauna. Like that you will found more quickly the packs of hyenas in the crater and around with no grass in this one with snow it s a very good place.

I looked there 5 times after your post. But still no luck. Good little area to find many animals though. Every animal spawned including ostrichs. But no hyena. I will give up this savanna album. I hope it works after an any update in the future.

I have give up too i think the devs never test to research themselves whitout devs mod or in fauna “normal”. That’s crazy to have be trapped in that for hours for nothing my eyes have been hurting and i have not played video games for more two weeks because of that. I have hope they do something soon.

This is the worst achievement in the history of video games. PC players have the advantage of developer mode and can also set the fauna density to ultra, which is practically impossible on consoles. I also can’t find the hyenas with their cubs, ostriches, cheetahs, and forest elephants. I’ve played for over 100 hours, most of which was searching for these animals. I want the platinum trophy, but I can’t get it. And two more exams are simply not in the game.
