AI Hunting in La Brea Tar Pits

Hunting AI animals in Ecos La Brea might seem easier than chasing players, but these creatures are surprisingly tricky. Here's how to successfully track and capture them.

How to Catch AI in Ecos La Brea

Stealth is paramount when hunting AI in Ecos La Brea. Use your nose – press the scent button to reveal nearby animals as icons. Crouching activates a meter that shows how close you can get before the animal flees. Movement directly impacts this meter: sprinting fills it instantly, running significantly affects it, trotting fills it slower, and walking fills it most slowly—your best approach for close-range hunting.

Consider the wind direction. Approaching downwind will spook animals faster; crosswind is moderate, but upwind is ideal. As you move, a question mark will occasionally appear above the animal icon. If the question mark is visible, the meter fills faster; stop moving until it disappears.

The meter will likely fill before you reach the AI. Be ready to sprint once the animal flees. While AI are fast, sprinting should allow you to catch up. Their movement is erratic, so practice is key. Open fields with minimal obstacles offer the best hunting grounds.

To capture an animal, get extremely close to initiate a bite. Once you've secured your prey, drop and eat it. Repeat this cycle until satisfied.
