its hard to grind a whole river system when u only can put out 16 tents
they have a limit for tents?
thats dumb
You can place out 16 tents and 32 tripods
32 is a decent load tho
fr
Polar bear hunting is 100% legal, as it should be. Hunting is the most effective means of conservation and hunting dollars do Wonders for rehabilitation of land.
Its legal to hunt walrus in canada too
It’s illegal to hunt whales in Nebraska tho
I wish it was legal to hunt beaver in CotW
same
Should there be a map with dodos and extinct animals to hunt? What are your thoughts?
sounds almost like ark tbh
what i meant is the whole dinosaur hunting part
ik
theHunter: Primal remaster
I’d literally die for that
i think they have that on classic
Woah
correct me if im wrong
Ya see I bought the cotw
Not knowing there was a fee versions
same
fr
Like please the game needs more free pistols
wait do u own all the dlcs?
I’m a noob and suck at it but atleast I could manage hunting with a 30-30
Just 1
lucky
It’s a weapon pack
it got boring after a while having everything
U had everything?
yea
Dude Layton sucks ass
fr
but with new england im excited to hunt the go moose there along with many other maps
Cuz they run
MOOOOSE!
They should attack you now right
yea
Layton’s one of the better maps tbh
I used to hate it before getting other reserves but after spending time off of it I only realized that I loved the map even more than I thought I did
Yea cuz Layton is simple
They should add less recoil
Ngl
my fav reserve of all time has to be srp tho
its so good for grinding
SRP is okay, I never found the map fun but it’s not bad in any way
Yea somone was spawning in diamonds
Without me knowing
So I must of shot 5
First diamond I ever got
I left that server
lol
Yes it’s bannable
my first ever diamond was a pronghorn
Ez
fr
Wait so what does it have to be to be a diamond l
I think just 98
I’ve shot lvl 5 they hold
It has to be a lung shot right
30-6 or 30-30
30-06 is goated
It has to be a vital organ hit so lungs, heart, liver, neck or brain
Not really
Eh
ive nailed the heart on them plenty of times
I shot a diamond mountain lion in the head
oof
It didn’t hit brain
Whenever the animal is facing towards you, if you aim for the heart and miss you more often than not end up getting into lungs anyway
You can’t damage trophy organs, which is why you shouldn’t go for brain shots on anything other than gators
one time i shot at a leucistic lvl 4 pronghorn and it raised its head as i shot and i hit it in the brain
i was pissed
At the very least, rare pronghorn aren’t hard to get
You’ll find another one eventually
true
i've bagged 4? diamond pronghorn, idek how or why, only other diamond i've gotten was a capercallie 
(not all at once, just over the course of me playing)
my herds like to troll me, i've had tons and tons of almost diamonds
oof
Okay, I got a question, with the new customization options opening the doors for it, is it possible EW will drop one or two weapons and paint schemes in a pack rather than 3 weapons?
They will more likely keep weapon and paint packs separate right?
Imagine getting shot in the neck
What have I come in on
They’re gonna be more than pinched. More like obliterated
I encourage you to read this article as to why liver is so important. If you don’t have a liver you will die.
https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/conditions-and-diseases/liver-anatomy-and-functions
Dude… it is a vital organ.
Nevertheless the liver is a vital organ (scientific fact)
It is a vital organ function wise, not when it comes to hunting. While it can kill an animal, there are better more efficient organs hunters tend to go for like lungs
No, you just are making incorrect statements about something very vital not being vital.
You said these are vital organs and very specifically said the liver is not vital.
Dingle meant hunting wise
It’s a hunting game server correct.
Still a vital in the hunting world, just doesn’t kill the animal as quickly as you’d like even with an effective shot. Like littlenightma said, there are more effective vital organs to shoot which take the animal down much quicker. The fact it doesn’t kill as quickly as you want doesn’t make it a non-vital organ.
About two more days before NEM releases 🎉
It’s going to give me a reason to grind moose and the reserve is really pretty from what I can tell
I wish they would’ve put as much into the Alaska map as they did with the NEM map… it looks beautiful.
Personally I like the nature appeal much more when traveling. Like Alaska has been my absolute favorite place by far to do anything. I’ve been in the New England area many times, but never considered it an exceptional hunting place I guess.
Im gonna be honest
the more i look at the new harvest screen and the less im convinced about it
the lighting is just..off
and you cant see all the details on the animals you can currently
idk really
I agree, the current harvest screen was just iconic! They could've just made the inspect screen non transparent with better lighting.
Yeap, and I don't know why they downgraded the Xray too
I like u
Pov with ur mother
Pov im with her rn
💀💀
💀
idk about yall but im super excited for this map
no its the lighting
it makes the models look like plastic, especially the feathers
and you cant see all the details on the animals
or the iridescence on birds
Finland's independence day is 6th of december
map is coming out at that day
coincidence? absolutely.
lol wow
anyways, has there been list of the new england's animals?
kinda have not been following the news of this map..
i was talking abt vitals and insta kill shots in cotw not irl
does anyone know what time does the new reserve drops on tuesday?
sometime between 5 and 8AM EST
do you guys think they will change around need zones for any maps in the new update?
As in need zone times? I know bighorn drink time is being updated, as is the mtn lion one on SRP
thank god
I want to get all my zones down for moose on Yukon but if they rework it it would be for nothing
There's a good chance most of any found zones are going to stay intact. They'll just have new animals in them.
moose drink time is not changing afaik, neither are the home ranges
so you shouldnt have to change your setup, except to optimize it a bit more
ok
I have to set it up to begin with
I been grinding Chamois for about six hours total
bout ready to go to the petting zoo and slap every goat there
are there any current maps for drink zones on yukon or revali
They vary by map, you just gotta search 'em on yours
:(
true
also what is the max weight moose track
I am asking a lot of questions I know
There are the two I have
swag
The blue circle on the wolf map is my hot spot, with 4-5 drink zones for wolves. There are so many packs
let me shoot them.
is there something wrong with the aggressive moose sounds
they sound weird
n o
y e s
show me more zones and then we can talk :)
all i need is, tents at lakes and houses and i can help :)
im just setting up
also, how far do you set tents out for drinking zones
about
like
lets say
125+
or 100
i dont have tents dlc yet 😭
You need to be at least 200-215m away from the zone in order for the animals to be spawned in
so basically 200+
Anything less and the animals will be invisible
Basically
wait i'll help u find spots
want my user?
I can host
I forgot how this system works
we have to friend through the game's system right
si
ill dm u my name
ok
New update which means time to play this game again
After some testing, I think the .223 would be better off as a 1-3 weapon, and it still desperately needs a buff
true
Shot ten roe deer at exactly 150m, broadside only, six of the were flesh wounds
well, the .223 pissed me off so i'm going on a campaign against it
lol
diamond weight chamois, broadside at 150, ran so far it died out of render and i decided to hate the 223
i hate the 223 only bcs it feels like a bb gun whenever i make any shot out of 100+
I actually, successfully downed a WT buck with the 22 hornet and the .223 failed the same test
damn
1 bullet?
I can safely say, as far as i'm aware, the .223 is the most useless weapon in the game, bolt or semi
I got the deer with 1 round, polymer tipped at 100m, with a single lung
with 22 or 223?
.22 H Wasp, not 223
it doesn't do well on foxes either
i shot one from like 150-300 away did the job perfectly
i'm probably biased, but i tried giving it the botd but the fox ran so far i just gave up and used the 243
and the ammo is free too, it works beatifully on 2-3 class game with a lung shot
fr
yea
pistol and rifle both are useful and again, cost nothing in game
243 is your best friend no matter what
7mm is bestest friend
for you
it should be 4-8, no one would realisticly take on a lion or a cape buffalo unless they were at risk of getting eaten/stomped into a puddle
if the 7mm was 4-8 what's the point of the 270 lol
but the 270 is 1 class lower from the 7mm
what gun is 3-7?
only the mosin
The mosin and the round ball ammo for the hudzik
i was gonna say that but you're quick
do yall think that they will backfill SRP with something and they just didnt tell us or no backfill for SRP (i havent watched the last couple streams so idk if they have announced anything about it)
Jaxy confirmed that SRP won't get any new animals
They weren't able to set up a replacement in time.
i'd be pretty happy with a surprise backfill in general
like Oh hey, there's yotes on Acres now? neat
im hoping next update they backfill SRP with either moose or mallards and a rabbit of some sort, fox could also work for SRP since fox can be hunted in Colorado
i see what you mean and that would be cool, but yotes on acres? lol. id imagine another waterfowl would be more favorable for acres
yeah. . . . .but i suck at bird hunting lol
uh no, sorry.
I was just saying a surprise backfill where they just drop an animal and leave us to find it would be cool
Ohhh
I thought someone fond them there one of the ccs
I don't watch the vids and streams on the ccs getting it first except on new multi mounts and after the map comes out so I didn't
sorry, just meant a surprise animal showing up where you don't expect it would be a great way to surprise people
It's ok it would be cool if like after a new update people just started finding animals on different maps
imagine if they hadn't mentioned wolves on medved?
People would thank people was putting animals on other maps though hacks probably
Medved is missing another 4 animal, Wild boar isn't enough if I'm being honest
If the ccs didn't know
Huh?
Class 4
Honestly like, I know it isn't a class 4 animal but the raccoon dog
Theyre a welcome addition to the game
Siberian Roe deer? they're slightly larger than euro roe but . . . .
red deer, i's not class 4 but they do exist there
I say they would put Siberian roe deer in the same class as normal roe deer and wolverines would be class 3
Mayyybe class 2 but I would put money on class 3
It seems like pretty much nearly everything there is either very large or rather small
I don’t know which is why I am asking lol
It says on the chart 3-7 but I swear it's changed
i mean neck when i say throat
Anyone got a photo of the actual map u would see when pressing “m” I dont want to watch streams and spoil the map for myself
I love the idea of releasing fun silent updates like that
like nothing too significant just a little thing they did without telling anyone right away and the community sorta just figures it out like a surprise
and it gets announced about when the community starts to catch wind so those out of the loop won't be at any sort of disadvantage (like if Acres happens to be a great yote grinding map somehow, inline with your example)
i like the idea too, i think it would be pretty funny for someone to be hunting layton one day then a mountain lion attacks them
yyyeaaa
that'd be cool
thats kinda how it went when clues for Mississippi were added and people started hearing the gator hiss on Srp
what'd be fun is if they nerfed the diamond score threshold for reindeer and caribou but never told anyone
people wouldn't know if EW changed something or if they were just getting lucky after the 543,822nd kill of their diamond reindeer grind
fr ive been trolled so many times by gold caribou or reindeer having a really good antler on one side then the other looks like it got hit by a truck
what's interesting is it's hard for a level 5 to make diamond
but there are just a truck load of level 5s
on the map at any given time
so diamond reindeer is effectively similar in rarity to a diamond moose
not me im the most unlucky person you will ever meet in any hunter game
yeahhhhh
one on hand, I had a initial-spawn diamond caribou on my Yukon...and then I see a guaranteed troll some time later.
saaame
my luck's been getting better lately
got a rare gemsbok and 2 diamond wildebeest (different fur types) all in the span of <24 hours
a while ago
Tbh diamond wildebeest are rly easy diamonds
vurhonga diamonds are all fairly easy as far as diamonds go
the fur types tho
well maybe just lions
but lions have a badass albino
10 minutes and were on day away from touching New England
damn awesome!
For me atleast
is it just me or do animals who have blackgold, redbrown, e.t.c (not the classic pie, alb, mela trio) as a rare fur type just mess with everyone in the head?
if it's a species I'm not familiar with hunting I have to check the spreadsheet to make sure I'm not passing up a rare
almost let my rare gemsbok walk cause I didn't realize beige was a rare for gemsbok at first 😖
and similar story for my blackgold wild boar on hirsch
kinda, but rare fur types can also change, i believe before revontuli came out blonde and cinnamon were just reg fur types for black bears but now they are rare
Dude jackal the hares and male gemsboks springbok are some of the hardest to get now
funny how female gemsbok more commonly score higher than males
They are designed too
Female max score is higher than males
just looked it up and its pretty accurate, female gemsbok grow larger horns to protect themselves and their offspring from predators
Makes sense
i can’t wait for the new map
I can't wait for THIS 👀
(image taken from LL's stream last night)
Just. Being able to see all the animals that use a zone. 👌🏼
also lynx drinking again. And closer to morning hours.
Yep, now we just need jackels to get a drink time again
that is far from the best thing in the update imo
kiss your reindeer goodbye
lynx will scare them away
smh
lmao
reindeer drink time runs later than the lynx though
Will ask again at midnight in 6 hours lol
Watched a little of the play throughs. Still not certain if gonna like this map or treat it like Hirsch and visit occasionally
If it is sorta thick but open in areas like the top part of PF map then I will enjoy
Yes im a heathen but praying they dont fix the backpack glitch
I just realised the release date isnt tomorrow for me like I was hyped for but Wed. 😔 Damn Aussie timezone
Did they release the patch notes for this update?
Its not out yet so I doubt it
They will release the patch notes alongside the update
What time do updates normally release
It’s going to be somewhere between 5-8am eastern time, maybe earlier
But there’s really no set time
Ok, thank you!
MOOSE
Whatever i see first :p
peccary on parque
Rancho Pronghorns
rancho pronghorns do seem popular
Time to get me my diamond wolf albino and melanistic 😫
Practically bouncing out of my chair
Get it 👍🏼
bad thing is i have about 40 hours and no albino no melansistic and no diamonds
So im basically dumb
No
nah....patience 🙂
You’ll get it
Instead of using herd managment i use slaughter. So i just kill anything. I see.
Should spawn a diamond soon enough hopefully
atleast a albino
Albino bear would be the dream.
GO bear is a good dream too 🙂
I hope to bag me a GO moose...they look too cool. That greenish looking one is the one i want
dw me either lol
How many diamonds do u have?
maybe 25 with more than 500 hours in and a restart of the game
i might actually grind for a super rare wolf. i did start a long while ago and got a place in my spring creek manor trophy lodge waiting for one
I just got my first 2 piebalds last week. One moose and one blacktail deer
yes
did you get a pic?
there will be another one for you
mine were silvers i think except the moose. it was female
Is light brown bison rare???
but been a while before these
gives Abbe the power of the force
just seen a albino female moose on nem happy days
I honestly don't know 🙂
😁
wrong emoji lol oops
I shot one the other day ... light brown ... dime
ron do u know if light browm bison is rare or uncommon?
wiki doesnt really say
K thanks
I didn't realize chamois were such a pain to hunt
I still need my diamond chamois tho so I'll keep trying
Make a multiplayer and invited me for a sec
just for fun ofc.
boutta get me a albino
hehe id let you shoot it
I was watching a couple CCs this weekend, and it seems they were all upset over the Lynx in the update scaring everything away. I took a look into the info and seems like the Lynx in NA will actually hunt deer and caribou on occasion (there's a YT video of a juvenile lynx attacking an adult mule deer from in BC somewhere, the lynx does kill the deer but that's not in the video.) The European lynx is larger than the NA one, so same idea there. I did read on a Finland site where it says brown bear are the only predator the lynx has there, so I assume that bear in NA could also predate on the lynx. So maybe the lynx needs a fix to not scare the bear away.
😯
David dont worry bro ill hunt down the lynx and get rid of em
I am just happy lynx are getting their drink time back
To stop the lynx problem just shot them in the "holy balls" and stop them from reproducing
24 hours to go!!! AAAA!!!
how do i p-lay new englend map ?
It’s not out yet
Tomorrow is when it releases
Wonder why there are gonna be so many moose drink zones
Its the 6th here. Can I haz now
No map for you
you get it on the 6th of next december bc of your timezone
VPN time it is
I can’t wait to play on this map!
When does new england release?
Tomorrow.
time?
sometime between 5-8 AM EST
ok thanks
Anyone know the launch price?
I play on Xbox and just got all the dlc on sale.
What colour will the 1st outpost be?
Hot pink with slight cyan and violet shading
Honestly no clue tho. Didn’t know outposts had colors tbh
Was the 1st random queation to pop in my head for mu dane questions to the mods lol. They will be glad to be rid of me whe maps released
That’s very “McDonald’s in the 90’s”
Hmmm ok so I was doin some lookin, has there been clarification on whether or not certain weapon skins will be a dlc?
Apparently there is the skins and map dlc skins as part of purchases and update and there will also be special purchase only skins as a side dlc for 2.99 goi g of the announce on steam
As mentioned, there are two New England Mountains content pack types:
Scout (Free): Contains six weapon customization options (includes one of the options that is unlocked when purchasing New England Mountains)
Veteran (Paid): Includes all options from the Scout and Reserve DLC packs + seven exclusive options)
Reading from that anyhow is yeah buy new england get the options for it then there are 7 extras exclusive to purchase. Kinda weird how its worded
Dang it wrong copy paste
how does it work?
Go to an outpost and access the Weapons Cache.
Buy a New England Mountains cosmetic content pack: Scout (Free) or Veteran (€/$ 2.99).
Use the in-game cash to apply any item across any currently owned (and future) weapon in the game.
Hunt in style!
Kinda weird how they weren't touching on it at all lmao
A lot of people having a go at em in the comments for being quiet about that part and not mentioning that on streams lol
Ah so there is going to be a cosmetics dlc in addition the the New England Mountains dlc. I expected there to be one, but not quite this soon.
I’m fine with customization being paid for. I’m happy as long as they don’t paywall better animal models and graphics 😂 and bug fixes
whats new england
New map releasing tomorrow set in the New England region of the US
Their post here explai s the new customising setups https://steamcommunity.com/app/518790#scrollTop=153.14285278320312
The deep dive post
I wasn't part of the community that was asking for weapon skins, but having seen the system I'm convinced now and I'm actually looking forward to that most of all.
Definitely some weapons I'd like to kit out and a 3 euro cosmetic pack seems eminently reasonable to me. I always thought EW were very reasonable in their dlc costs, especially with their 10% and even 20% launch discounts which are kind of ridiculous.
All I can really say is count me in and see you in New England tomorrow. 🙂
Oh and definitely if we can get like magenta paints because there is a particular person I kind of want to annoy. hehe 😄
whats the animals
Check pinned messages
Is just going to be weapon “skins” or is there going to be more too it?
Well the weapon skins are just customizable cosmetics which don't affect performance of the weapon.
The steam post a few posts up I posted has details how it all works
Basically you can mix and match different paint jobs and camos to different parts of the weapon
Ok just wanted to know if you could add stuff like bipods to your gun and stuff like that.
Now to get glow in the dark paint for my bow
I am particularly interested in the materials section. I would definitely like a bit more brass for my lever-actions and one of the Hudzik .50 muzzleloaders.
Sit in a treestand glowing like predator blood
I swear I heard a predator on my map one day made me jump like wtf
Get to tha' ATV! 😁
I don't mind that but lets mention it lol
finally a game where content doesn't get released at night
*timezone-dependent
europe always has to suffer because of american time zones
Here is a map of New England Mountains with all the outposts circled (light blue) and lookout towers circled (red). Hopefully this will be useful for release tomorrow! 🖤
That's alot of outposts close to each other in the middle
Yep!
Using outposts along the river might be useful for grinding
I did think they were quite well placed!
just found my first pronghorn on rancho
There’s a few spots that could use tents but otherwise the outposts are placed really well
Each major lake is moderately easy to access from outposts
Agreed! It’ll still take a while to do runs of the rivers but in general the outpost locations make things a little bit more possible
If you manage to get your moose zones down to min. weights along the river then that could make grinding far far easier
we can put decals on our guns !?!?
does that mean i can put a giant peen onto the stock of my 308 zarza !??!
I don’t think EW would put a decal of a penis into the customization menu
Do we have a time for the release?
sometime between 5 and 8 AM EST
Sweet
Next minute a giant pink gun with oddly shaped decals appears sus
No big bodies of water
Thank Mel
Good evening, does anyone know what time the new map will be released tomorrow?
No @dreamy escarp
sorry to bother but do we have a set time for new England release date tomorrow?
.
Lmao
Still can't make up my mind on the map
anybody see flinter's streams/videos on it?
he said the muzzleloader wasn't that good
No
The muzzleloader is exactly what it is, a muzzleloader they aren’t meant to be good in this mostly arcade style game. It’s really just something different to hunt with.
Okay please explain to me how this game is even remotely arcade style like it shares absolutely nothing with Buck fever super slam hunting and so forth
I describe it as realistic arcade
Not completely realistic but not completely arcade like either
id say its more semi realistic
Do we know what time the map is releasing?
Lord have mercy
.
Not a complete arcade but when you can change the time to know exactly where a certain animal can be found over the entire map I don’t think gets it out of the arcade class
Regardless of what they wanna call it, I wish the rifles were roughly equal so we could just use the ones we actually like rather than waht they want us to buy
Animals on this map?
Check the pins.
Lovely isn't it
Are we clear on how the paint dlc is working?
Yes
Yeah, but they're missing the gold, diamond and mastery camo 😂 😉
What time is the map realsing?
.
There will still be people asking when the release date is during tomorrows stream.
💀
I really wish you wasn't right
Words can't explaine how excited I am
not to bring up a dead conversation but cotw is definitely an arcade style game i haven't played the game in 8 months and i could launch my game and go to a drinking zone and the same animals will be there that were there 8 months ago
That...just means it's not as much of a "simulation" as Classic...
im not comparing it to classic im just saying that you just go to a need zone and theres always the same animals and unless u have ruin the zone with high hunting pressure the animals will always be there
i kinda agree
4?
yes?
what are your thoughts on new england?
alr
Am I able to play without updating tomorrow?
Or do I have to update to play on Xbox
you need the free part of the update if you want the animal backfills, the patches, and the great one moose. I guess you can play offline without the update if you want. You won't be able to play online with people or on the new map without the update. The paid part you don't need.
Good, do you know which new animal species are going to be incorporated and which maps?
check pins
Hey guys
So is anyone from New England irl?
and the only animals I haven't seen IRL personally are the goldeneye, teal, moose, bear, quail, and gray fox.
though I know there's been a bear sighted in my town before, and moose the next one or two over
I’m watching a replay of lady legends stream from earlier. Map looks gorgeous!
What time (EST) does NE Drop
sometime between 5 and 8
Rly?!?
I might have to wake up at 5AM and play it lol
weeeew map releasing tomorrow according to flint
i honestly used to absolutely hate moose because they were so abundant in most maps (early in the game's life), plus their obnoxious warning calls
buuut i might change my mind in an attempt to look for a great one
they might make them harder with the new update
Bc timezones are hard, is that 9-12 hours away?
Sorry for ping 😭 I forget it does that
About, yeah
Tomorrow I'm getting the new map In the morning and play when I get home and cry over ruining Diamond
It's mid It's not on xbox
average xbox L
It's not out for anyone yet
besides the content creators but even then it’s just early access
oh i thought he was saying it wasnt going out on xbox
Does the map come out at midnight est or?
more like 4-6 EST
ahh okay
Ok, I might not update till I get my G1 whitetail because of spooking mechanics changing
Lets go. I'll be able to get the new dlc on release day!
Rip bozo
Oof
POV.: I forgot that existed lmao but noted
What time is it releasing
4-6 EST
Yes
Ok
Okay?????????????
Sooooooooooooooooooooooo 8pmmmmmmmmmm forrrrrrrrrrrrr australiaaaaaaaaaaaaaa??????????????????????
Yeah it is
also is it just me or do y'all also think EW has been getting less creative with their name ideas
MA and NE are literally both just their irl location in their name
It’s the same naming convention as before
not even trying to be unique and fictional about it
Just with the area’s name instead of say Medved which means bear
wat time is relase
What is your region?
No I was misspelling on purpose in an attempt to grill you
Oh
Silly
I had assumed you did cuz you were correcting the other fellow
Nope just assuring that the meanest are also not the smartest
Wise words
Thank you
What people consider mean isn’t always mean. Sometimes people are just more sensitive
I’m not sensitive, I just believe kindness is just the better way in life
It will get you farther
I wasn’t saying you are sensitive m
Wise words to live by
I know
Clearly you’ve never trolled a 12 year old online
Well, I do play modern warfare if that makes it any better.
Honest to god watching people rage over the most mundane things on the internet will always bring a smile to my face because that amount of idiocy is never not funny
it's fun until it gets to the ridiculous phase
Well if they get mad over small things you could laugh but you should also put to thought what’s going on behind the screen.
Mental security
and that is also true. Never know if someone had a shitty day and that was a tipping point.
Maybe steer a different direction or move to a diff channel (:
Sure, I will go to off topic then
this chat is going to be very busy soon
still got another 4-6 hours to go
Awaiting the sudden explosion of activity
That’s true.
I cannot wait for the map
Expansive worlds truly outdid themselves this year
I’ve been nothing but lagging the last two days on console… no clue why
Must be the servers preparing themselves for the overflow of people
Multiplayer?
Nope.
Oh
Entirely peer-to-peer
Nah local
We should place bets, who will make a video on the new map first? Flinter, scarecrow, or LadyLegend?
I have mine on Lady
They’ll probably all go up around the same time. Just depends on who wants to edit more. I wouldn’t be surprised if they streamed instead
That’s true
Does anyone know yet how big the update will be? I’m excited that it launches tomorrow morning but living in the country has its downsides…as in sometimes it takes a full day or more to download stuff.
I think it’s 12mb
For console you have to redownload the game
If I’m not mistaken…
I feel like Flinter does the least amount of editing so I imagine his will go up first
Redownload the whole thing???? Isn’t this stuff usually like a 3-4gb download???
The way the game files are packed on console (Xbox specifically) makes a complete redownload necessary
you dont actually download DLCs when you purchase them btw
they're installed to the game, purchasing them just "unlocks" them for you
Wait. I have to redownload the whole game?
the update essentially does that
By its self?
yes
Even if I burn through the hotspot on my phone to speed it up it’ll be like 3 days before I can play it…
all you do is press "start update"
Ok and what time does the update come out
4-6 AM EST
Ok. Thank you
does anyone know what's in the veteran pack?
google is your best bet
Oh, wait. What about for PC? Have to redownload the entire game?
time zones are some confusing shit
No just the update
update is probably in the ballpark of 10-20gigs
buying the DLC doesnt make a difference because they're already installed to the game from the start
Bleh. ): That's like three days downloading for me. RIP satellite internet.
Yeah, that's what I thought and I was SO hopeful
I was hoping it wouldn't require a total reinstall, but it is a pretty big update i guess
it requires a full re download?
Every update since the game has come out has required this
Don’t understand why people are so surprised
Because that is most certainly untrue. Every update I’ve ever had for this game since release has been on average 3-4gb. Revontuli update with the whole waterfowl rework was like 4gb for my ps4.
Definitely wasn’t like that for me
Yeah and the update will be meaty if you got a series X Xbox due to 60fps?
Yea fr. It says online the update was around either 39 gigs or the full game at 60
Doesn't the DLC d/l with the patch? Then when you buy the dlc it unlocks it?
yes
Wait, am I correct in thinking we only have 5hrs to go?
Normal for a male
Level 3 turkey is close to guaranteed diamond
worth taking tho?
sure...does it have a cool feather type?
Worst case it’s like 1300 bucks
that is why i shoot almost anything lol
kinda salt/pepper
Who knows. It could respawn as a level 3
true
Is it white with grey feather tips?
yeah
I have 3 diamond turkeys. All spawned as level 3
he's shooting it lol
Just wanted to confirm that he was shooting a leu lol
ik 🙂
nah, didn't have a 22 on me
oh
Well, come back. More than likely you’ve just found a leucistic
Whenever you grab the .22 obviously
even tho it is a waste of space...i always carry my hornet
The .22h isn’t too bad
I just feel like it gets outshined by both .22lr rifles
It’s still underpowered against class 2s I believe
it could be better, but i have it for class 1 and 2 then my 303 for 3-7 and my 338 (ik...i can see the hate alreay lol) for 7-9
I like the LR
itd be really damn nice if you got the fur type when you spotted the animal
More often than not you can usually tell just by lookin whether it’s a rare or not. I would much rather the game tell you in the harvest screen whether something’s rare/very rare or not
Would help a lotta newer players identify that they’ve just shot something cool
Xbox stats kinda keeps track
It says I have 6 rares and 60 very rares tho. So something is definitely wrong 😂
I actually just started to play the 14th, so this is my first update.
Hence why I didn't know.
Not well though lol. Also, my suggestion isn’t to keep track of them it’s to inform you that you got one in the harvest screen
Would be nice
FEW HOURS TO GO!!
Gonna attempt to get a diamond caribou before the update drops lol
Hopefully a diamond red fox too
What time does the map drop
could at least say rare/very rare when you spot it, the hunter can tell it's weight and estimate it's score, why not notice if it was rare?
4-6 EST
Grrrr but I want it now 🤣
Tbh I imagine it would be far more rewarding if you had no clue it was a rare, only to find out by complete surprise. I dont know I might be a little biased from my first SR lol
you guys know if you get super lucky the 270 will drop a bison
Ain’t ethical so I wouldn’t advise it
Of course, nobody’s stopping you
But building up a habit of using the right gun for the right animal will pay off
I mean, even a .22 pistol can take down a bison
oh i was hunting pronghorns and it charged, i just wanted to stay alive lolo
got about 4 hours now on my time
wdym
update is supposed to drop 4-6 est, it's midnight
Update will drop at the same time for everyone
does anyone have trouble find bighorn sheep even horns?
Update’s gonna download for me while I’m at school
I'm wondering when i need to stop playing and delete it
its update day lfgg
u dont have to delete it
just press uptade
it will redownload for you
I'm on ps4
it'll happen automatically.
you sure that's okay?
thats like on the verge of shutting itself down probably
yeah mine used to get that hot until I got one of those stands that has fans built into it
now it's more like 84c
F?
ah okay
it's mostly just COTW that makes my laptop's fans go full blast though
thinking I might go for a desktop next time though, depending
get one of those fan things u put ur laptop on
i just shot a cougar, it bolted over a hill did a full circle, and died at the bottom of my stand
this game confuses me
cougar?
Puma/mtn lion
Sorry, there's so many names for that cat it's hard to keep track
There’s like 3 main ones
You don’t often hear em called anything other than what’s already been mentioned
GO mtn lion? it'd be murder to grind but it would look cool i bet
Cougar does not register as an animal to me
My grandad calls 'em catamounts, my gf's dad calls 'em panthers
Your grandfather calls them fucking what?
You are going to piss off ned 😂
catamount (cat of the mountain I guess)
gfs? u got more than one?
Can’t say I’ve heard that one before
???
Girlfriend’s
oh il dumb
It’s possessive
im dumb
There’s an apostrophe
sorry i just woke up
right there
Ur sassy oli
You’re not wrong
what time the reserve drop at?
4-6 EST
Honestly my grandfather's the only person I've ever heard refer to them as catamounts
Read
We need to add a filter to the server so people can’t form that sentence anymore
form what sentence
All of them
"what time does reserve drop?"
When it drops
I feel like the mods on here deserve something for putting up with us
Maybe an ATV skin or an outfit
Or peace
They moderate a discord server. Nothing to do with the game itself besides talking about it in here
No discredit to the mods but that makes no sense
that may be true but usually if someone helps you then you wanna thank them in some way
alright start the petition mods get all dlc for free
That makes even less sense
we should all pitch in and get the mods a big teddy bear plushy to squeeze when they see "when is the update coming out" 3 responses after it was last asked
Okay that I’m on board for
They'd rather have a punching bag . . . .
or one of those stress balls
we know it might be coming when Jaxy's status is not idle anymore and more devs come on lmao
@languid wedge when does new map release!!!!!????
NOOOOOOOOO

Hey in all seriousness what's the GO you guys are most excited for?
i will lol if they come on here and say it got delayed 3 weeks...
I really want to get a WT GO still. Hopefully NE will be a decent map for em
mule deer
moose
Mulie GO will be stunning
i would love coyote or jackal...get everyone to go after the class 2s
Same. Ive been grinding whitetail on and off the past month, but gonna put it on hold to try for a GO moose or two bc I like those much more
Cant wait for cotw to be invaded by pheasants now lol
From 1 map to 4 maps
jackals look a little uhh. . . . .they look like crackheads
i like that bc I dont have rancho and wanted to hunt pheasants
Wait what maps got pheasants?
if they do jackals like they did the moose GO and have some cool fur types...that would be cool by me....hey maybe they might get a retexture too 🙂
Ne?
