ngl....it is gorgeous IRL durin the autumn
and i will say the devs did a decent job with the map overall
i still need to explore more of it but from what little ive seen so far it is well rendered
The pines trees are the same too?
mmmmmm i wouldnt say that but eh i wasnt expect a perfect representation
Ah ok
i am slightly disappointed that the forested areas arent thicker with trees and dont have as much dead leaves on the ground
but i get that would be a bit much to render
It is very hard to hunt small animals in this map because it is really thic
I think it’s more of a “people hate hirsh” thing
haha you should try that IRL here in NH before sayin that ingame xD
even worse here
Really
but i do understand that thick foliage isnt to everyone's taste when tryin to hunt
I look for pumpkin fields it is the only open space
some of NH's forests are a massive pain to traverse due to downed trees bushes and saplings...imagine if that got added into the NE map and you are tryin to hunt that way
Wow but I have to use the roads and open fields anyway 🤣
I say revontuli was the perfect balance
im totally not biased towards thick forests with lots of ground vegetation 🤣
i mean...i grew up above a state protected wetland sanctuary with pine/maple trees nearly completely surrounding my house i grew up in
so im use to LOTS of forest vegetation
do you guys discourage wearing medium backpacks or is it worth the noise for extra carry weight? ive played this game plenty but im just getting back into it and i know a lot has changed since i last played
It's not worth
I carry 5 weapon without a bag
i use the large bp for the extra space.....i honestly dont have issues with it creating too much noise
Beautiful
Do you see the animals in the map there?
what loadout are you guys using? preferably one that allows a bow
I don’t like the noise it creates. Spooks animals for extreme distances
A shotgun For birds and weapon covering classes from 1 to 9 including.243 and others I don't remember
So I carry 5 without backpack
@fair jetty to give you a idea this is my childhood home i grew up in....as you can see in the background.......thick AF pineforest lol
Nice bro 😍
I wished the pines were others in the game because they come from others map
yea same
So I feel like I am in Layton or Hirsch sometimes
The best they include rivers
East coast look like central Europe? I am seeing pics in internet
It looks very similar irl
east coast as in east coast US?
Yes
not sure tbh
could also depend on which part of the east coast you are referrin to lol
my dog’s head is spinning like the bloody exorcist
and it’s freaking me out a bit lol
Seems the ghost that possessed Jaxy’s dog has made its way into the Granite update
Told y'all any bugs shown in early access end up in the main update lol
Yo are there any 9s on NE?
Did gunshot spook distance get lowered?
Raised.
That's what a meant lol, that sucks though, granted realistic, makes my life so much harder
But that's okay, it's for the greater good I think
Stalking is harder now lol. Fast crouching is red
Yeah, I caught that. I also feel like it's harder to go invisible, I could be wrong though
Or maybe Hirschfeldens foliage doesn't work
Definitely a challenge. I’ve bagged a few gold moose and white tail so far at least
Got a troll wt, piebald female wt, troll 5 medium rocky mountain elk
60 fps is kinda poggers ngl
Is that for PC? On ps4 I see no difference in the pixels
Only for ps5
And xbox series x/s
Oh, how blessed you new gen guys are! Only game to make me feel good to have a last gen console lol
They also added trees to certain spots, making a LOT of beavers make my tents disappear
Only when I fast travel to them, so atleast I can just replace them lol
is anyone else hearing stag roaring in the new map? theres no audio cues for it either. i thought red deer werent on this map?
@quaint summit It's Moose They updated the way they sound
Caught me off guard to lol
Lol
So overall how’s the update for y’all 🥲-mid 😃-good
If you were in fabled chat earlier you have my stance
The quality of the game has dropped for me constant stuttering that wasn’t there pre update
correct me if im dumb but is that really what moose sound like? im seriously convinced its red stag roaring. not a moose.
What did they do to red deer? It's half my zones are gone and deer are clustered in spots they weren't before, but I still have the same dimes as before, just in different spots
Side-effect of the new animals being added, probably
From what I’ve heard from everybody they didn’t get rest or anything they jsut all moved around
Which should have been included in notes in my opinion. it screwed so many people over.
I worked pretty hard to get my zones to where they are, making zones with all 4s and others with good respawns.. but ah well
The grind continues
I highly doubt it was intentional
I know it wasn't, im not mad about it or anything like that, maybe a little disappointed, but I really like the new map so it's all good👍
I have to completely redo my setup pretty much, which I spent the last week working on perfecting. Which is pretty infuriating.
Also now having a massive herd at a single small lake is just awful.
This is all true ans very relatable
And 2 red deer across the whole river on te.
Any one know why my game performance ranked after this update?
Used to be my hotspot where I would have 25-30 red deer. Now literally it was 2 red deer.
And all deer are stacked in one location for the most part. The corner of a small lake, so you shoot one and they all spook into the trees.
I wouldn’t have an issue with it if they actually spread them out evenly.
I have ONE zone where I used to have like 4 on one of the northern lakes, the other 3 moved to two zones on the lake below it
One of the 2 by the cave along the river says it exists but no deer are there
@quaint summit It's gotta be a moose cause I heard it on Yukon today and it cued to a moose
My most productive lake, that got me a super rare and countless 9 legendaries, consistently spawning in 8's, now has 2 level 4's and like 8 hines
Blue is old hotspot, pink is where they ALL are now
Same. Zero tracks but the drink zone remains.
Pink was my most productive lake, lol
I'm so glad I took the super rare before the update lol
I had 1 level 3 male there for ever
I would've never found it in this mess
Now it’s a massive herd 😂
😂
So frustrating… I would’ve taken my diamonds before 😩
is a bronze fur type turkey common
Yes
Nevermind, 2 deer just randomly appeared after 4 runs, a 9 legendary and a level 4
just heard a moose cue and it was totally different than the stag roar i heard earlier. im sooo confused
Thanks, I'm just stacking them, I found most of my 9's, but I'll have to revisit all the lakes I stopped grinding
There ya go
Good news is I was still checking all red deer lakes so I have tents set up for all of them.
That's nice lmao
So at least I don’t have to walk everywhere
Which one is it?
Yeah. Seems red deer got shifted around
Yeah...
The upper, super small lake in highcastle, your standing on it in the screenshot you posted earlier
@quaint summit I'm not sure then
I stole that screenshot when I first started grinding 😜 but yea I’ve never had any red deer there. I’ll have to check it
Oh lmao gotcha
Yay I found 2 more of my 9's at a single lake I don't grind, perfect for the stacking process lol
IM trying to get motivated to redo all my red deer zones again too on TA not happy at all
That purple one on that map is my mystery lake it has had a zone since before update and I never found a single deer there at any time of the day even after setting tents outside spook zone and coming in lol. Tried a few sleeps since update and still no deer there haha
Red deer seem to have moved around quite a bit
My best zones just up and disappeared and I’ve got entire herds at lakes that would never get even singular stags
Yep was the 1st thing I checked when updated and swore and cursed lol. I still havent played the new map yet
@plush plaza ^^^ it is not normal
Oh damn yeah that isn’t normal
These antlers moving without the red deer is making me motion sick lmao
Dont forget having to move tripods so dont spook your zones now lol
Wait what??
I asked a while ago if anyone else had that issue lol
Everyone lol
No one responded lol
Some people just aren’t perceptive enough to notice
I didnt even see it lol
I was walking up on a myth red deer and thought wtf is up with him
Yeah, it's kinda trippy looking at the antlers move independently from what they are attached to
gonna buy a bunch more tripods and just go walking back placing and shooting till I dont spook 2 or 3 zones at once lol. Today is gonna suck
Lmao have fun with that, I'm just gonna grind them as is.
I got lucky enough for one stag to stay at its original zone prior to update
I had nice spots on a few lakes where I had managed the herd down to deer I didnt care about so plonked a tent and tripod there as had great view to shoot points of lakes. Now gotta rework that spot so no deer there lol.
Do they add trees and shrubs to maps with every update? Because all but 2 or 3 tents on my map were taken down by said beaver because of new trees
Beavers ate 2 of my tents too lol
@sudden ginkgo
can confirm its 3:00-6:00
this zone anyways
also that didn't take long lmao
If I could get the simple blessing of a red deer GO soon that would be great, I want to start the moose grind lol
pain.
RIP
Okay, I am failing at this. Where do I access the gun painting thingy?
Storage, mouse over the gun, there's a "C" customize option
Bless! Thanks!
Hahaha, I immediately did that
How does green wing hunting work in Mississippi
It says I need green wing decoys but there is none theres only Eurasian teal but the game says there not the same so when u go to place them in Mississippi it won’t let u
I would think u would just use eusian teal decoys bc there almost the same thing as green wing but u can’t place them in Mississippi
Greenwings have their own decoys
😂
yeah I was looking in the decoy section and don’t see any only Eurasian teal
what lake?
has anyone got a great one moose yet
One north of the starting outpost
I hate the grey fox on NE. I tracked a legendary for 2.23km and finally got it and was .04 off diamond.
It led me on a wild goose chase for ages lol
Wow those moose call sound different 😂
LMAO
💀💀💀
I don't think anyone's gotten it outside of hacking it in or those few lucky souls who got it as an initial spawn
like I don't think anyone's legitimately gotten it off a moose grind yet
ofc not lol it's been out like 24 hours
You’d be surprised by what grinders are capable of in 24 hours
this is true
It’s a genuine surprise we haven’t seen one posted yet
there are some true no-lifers in this community
or people who work remotely and find some way to multitask cotw grinding and working
tbh that's the goal of working remotely
playing video games 💀
or being a content creator and making streaming cotw grinding literally your full time job
community isn't realistically big enough for anyone to pull in the donations/views to make cotw a stable full time job but what do I know 
There are several full time creators in the community
hm. Ig I stand corrected
at any rate there are a lot of no-life grinders in this community
really in any RPG community
cotw isn't special in that regard
but it never ceases to amaze me how quickly some people can go from first starting up their map prep for a grind to getting the trophy they want
Thousands of hours playtime does that 😄
And drink times makes it easy once you figure out when the animal you've after is by the water
like they find all their zones, set up all their tents and tripods, and in like a dozen irl hours worth of grinding or so they have their diamond or rare they've been looking for
It's not really hard, just time consuming
true
if you have virtually infinite money from either playing the game way too much or previous grinds, you can easily finance all the structures
Run around with a tent so you can put it down, make a setup when needed and pick it back up. That way you don't have to run back and forth.
and from there it's just some pretty basic knowhow of finding all your zones and strategically placing structures
and then you just cycle through the map
and time reset cycle for respawns
repeat
Which personally I will never do. I love hunting games for hunting. I'd be playing mmo's if I wanted to grind 😄
do several cycles if not dozens an hour and in a few hours bam
cotw isn't a RPG tho right? It's supposed to be a "Simulator"
it's basically an RPG now come on
COTW is a simulator, not an RPG
you unlock weapons, build skill trees, earn cash and buy things from a shop
even tho it's more of a arcade shooter🤔
still says on wiki,steam page, and anywhere you go look at cotw/buy it, it says it's a simulator
Classic is a simulator, cotw can be argued. I'd put it in casual since it's not difficult at all after you've played it a bit.
like any other hunting game
Grinding is present in nearly every game genre
^^
Anyway I think this discussion has nothing to do with the new map so wrong chat 😄
Loving it so far
haven't tried it
I’ve unlocked a decent bit of outposts and have checked a few lakes for moose
This game simply refuses to give me an initial spawn trophy
too busy with other stuff irl along with elden ring and fo4
I haven't gotten a chance to play it cause I've made a commitment to stay off video games until my exams are done
but it looks awesome
and so do the other changes
Elden ring got a awesome update today too
Bought it, went to hunt pheasants to Hirsch first since that was more important 😄 I'll get to the map this evening.
oooof
watch you'll get a diamond wt
please avalance at least update that fsr to 2.1 
with how many animals spawn in initially in a map, getting about a dozen or more initial spawn trophies (if you consider diamonds and rares trophies) is statistically to be expected afaik
but finding them all is another story
map's huge and some of those trophies can be animals that don't drink :(
anybody else having to wait for an indefinite amount of time at the customisation menu loading ?
I’ve checked every single body of water on Medved, half of Yukon and a decent chunk of NE
Not. A. Single. Diamond. Or. Rare.
new stuff from yesterday's update
you can change your weapon skins now
Ahh
:(
you can, assuming you can go past the loading screen 
they're probably hiding somewhere
I mean I do but hunting > skins for weapons
Yeah. It’s unfortunate
Hoping it all pays off with a decent albino or mela tho
Perhaps a great one if the stars align correctly
How you using outside emoji's?
this game has a way off rewarding the curious
Mods have those turned off I thought
idk i think they just added that permision

hmmm
and you'll find a surprise trophy emerging from the brush
It’s this channel that’s weird
just like that
in that case thanks mods 

lmao

channel has embeds disabled prolly
bruh
yeah and i hate that
too much anarchy

hold up not even boosters can embed or post external emotes ?
yeaeh but they say this chat is busted
Just not gifs or embeds
I can use them anywhere
and funny pink name 
It’s an indication of my bad spending habits
Hmm
Is anyone else having problems out of multiplayer
I spotted a weird moose and and was heading toward it. . . .
My gf tripped the breaker and cut me off
Leave her.
It should be there still, if it was at a need zone, you can just set the time and he should be there
It might be safer
I helped her kill the tree in dark souls 3 and she threatened to break my thumbs
is this a bug?
Well my weapon customisation works I guess it was just taking a while
No. Now you can place trophies out in the wild, it's listed in the patch notes.
OH MY GOD YES
(from the thehunter reddit, not mine)
@round kindle id say this makes it very different from the eu teal lol
xD
I am assuming piebald green wings are a good rare
open/close in the wall 😄
anyone got a full species list?
I'm finding 190-230 whitetail everywhere
Anyone else noticing little visual nods to other maps?
second huge new england moose
its a feature wdym
first diamond on new map
Yo guys my step father just broke my door down, broke all the hinge and locks and shit, carried on like a neurodivergent with speech problems all because I had a idea to use a pointed end to clean a dog bowl rather than a spoon, just broke everything on the table and he's a alcoholic
Damn man I'm really sorry
Fucking hate that piece of shit
Been there before
sorry to hear that man
anyone found any direct moose hotspots yet?
Pretty much all along the rivers on NE
I heard they were all along the rivers but i struggle to find the amount i was expecting
Know it's the wrong chat but is this a new feature, was going to transfer tents to new england xD
wth lol
Not new, sometimes the game will take down a portable structure if it messes with animal pathfinding
is it 100 or 200m that animals are invisible for you when spawning in tents?
So is this map worth buying?
Depends
Personally I really like it but I live in NE so I'm biased
The map is pretty much just American Hirschfelden if you're into that
Except maybe a little less dense
There's a lot of diversity with the species, even if none of them are new besides the teal
For grinding it's probably not the best but for roaming around and hunting feed zones or sitting in a treestand it's fantastic
side quests for NEM are quite bugged, yes?
same thing with the muzzleloader one, i've tried both muzzlies and it just doesn't register
weird
What's the new moose drink time
hasent changed
Alright thanks
They moved/added trees with the update, half of my tents were inside of trees and got removed when I fast traveled to them
Yeah, all my tents on SRP got removed ...
How do i change bindings button bindings on controller
you cant
Why
idk
It gives you the option to reset them to default
That option resets all settings to default iirc
Ok , havent read all the messages in this channel, so I may not be the first one BUT anyone else having a bug that rotates the sound input by approx. 90 degrees from either side the animal sound comes from. The animal call visual then shows up on the actual position of the animal and not where the sounds is audibly coming from
lots of plants levitating on mt alcott road to the viewpoint
wait a sec, i just realised i don't have the new muzzleloader
you got the new map?
with the new update my map button change wont work...
go in store and find it and press purchase
well it's not there
look more
nope
its not called muzzleloader
still no new rifles
isn't there
look again
well it's not there
It’s called the “Curman 50 Inline” I believe
Yes, I mistyped
If you go into the store it’s under the Coachmate Lever .45-70
If it’s still not there for you I suggest exiting out of the game completely then going back in
I’m sad bc I can’t afford the new map
ask ur parents
They said no
Omg I found the pumpkin patch
Nice
I love it
Yeah that’s pretty cool I can’t wait till I can get it I love the map
Dumbed down it's a Layton lakes east with crossable rivers
I didn’t think I would be this impressed but I love Layton and love the colors on Hirsch so
Same
Love foxes and coyotes
We don't speak of hirsh
I am at home here and I am never leaving
Lol
With the new update it's going to be impossible if it already wasnt
Why not the map is among the best looking in any hunting game
Not that
Is the animals longer spooking range from gun shots a bug or intentional
Intentional
Intentional
That sucks
Yeah
Yes
It’s not too bad
It’s horrible for grinding though
Can't down 3 herds on 1 lake no more
like way of the hunter now but shittier
It is for me grinding red deer
I just wish we got increased render distance to go along with it
unfortunately they've said multiple times that increased render range isn't ever happening
I agree
I know, it’s just wishful thinking lol
Idk if i didnt play way of the hunter i wouldnt care for the spooking range but breh its quite annoying
It's a f*cking videogame nobody trying to lose their mind cuz the scare distance is from California to alaska
What does way of the hunter have to do with this game
idk this update just took all of the sparks out of me
same here tbh
really bummin me out that most of the keybond switches i need to do wont work
keybind*
same here
map is “ok” just for looking good
But nothing new, new GO is a fat L, bugs (but thats a given)
Map is mid for grinding aside from the fact is has 3 go’s
What is the Moose drinking time on medved?
map is ass
its like they updated the game but ruined all the keybind stuff
Good for multiplayer “kinda” aside from now everything spooks a lot farther so you cant really do those fun runs anymore
I mean.. what exactly are you looking for? Sounds like this isn't the game for you.
it was fine until yesterday lol
and how the game operates currently just making the process slower
People are too used to the arcady factor of this game when they are pushing out stuff like this too many people complain
This update didnt RUIN the game persay, just made playing feel even more sluggish In that sense
Sluggish for a hunting game lol
to me it feels like they've brought in this new spook range so they can then bring in suppressors/silencers
Maybe
Hunting ain’t exactly warfare levels of chaotic in real life. I’m glad that they’re forcing us to slow down a bit
Bows shouldve had a lower spook range tbh
Bows do have a reduced spook range
Iirc they were untouched with this update
Along with the .22lr and air rifle
This statement would be true if you were talking about like 2018 CotW
Because there were a number of people who asked for a more "realistic" response from animals to gunshots in #882552632793767966
stealth bow buff
and yeah, bowhunting is a lot more viable now
I’m so happy about that because now we have legitimate reason to use bows over rifles besides “for the challenge”
based update
Ive already started carrying a bow w me always bc of how much better they are if you’re trying to take down a few animals at one lake or something
Also, I wish there was an air rifle that could take down a moose
I’ve been wanting a big bore air rifle that can take down up to class 6-8 animals for the longest time
is there a way to change the button that I use to set a wave point with my binoculars
hope that changed because literally every time I spot a animal it sets a wavepointn
wavepointn
Should be fixed in about 2 weeks time if they manage to get the hotfix out in that time
is it just me or does the new muzzleloader feel underpowered
It's weaker than the Hudzik, yes.
shame
love how it sounds
The dog needs an exorcist on new England map sometimes
Another American map
I know isn't it great 😁
Look what i found in one of the lodges
💀
Animals are spooking further away by footstep noises too?
or is it just from gun fire that they spook further
on the can? lol nah
Just gunshots afaik
ah okay!
i have been reading messages above, did they change animal spook behaviours?
i didnt see that in any update info but they dont always include everything
Animals spook from 300m and run out of render distance now iirc
Deleting game grinding is impossible now
to anyone who is deleting the game or is very upset about these changes, just know. this is a hunting game. so you cant seriously be mad at the developers for making the game more true to real life hunting.
wait nvm I see what you’re saying now
Its supposed to be a arcade game
eh idk if the realism thing is really a great argument. This game is pretty arcade-like overall.
I get that they want to put in elements of realism to make the game more authentic and I like that. But I also think there should be a balance of what is realistic and what is fun to play
old spook distance was immersion breaking imho
If i wanted realism i would pplay woth
They increase the distance by another 100m and people bring out the arcade card
I dont dislike the new spook distance. I just mean making changes for a more realistic gameplay is a fine line you have to walk bc at a certain point it hurts the fun of the game when it goes too far
yeah i think that this game has always sort of struggled with making up its mind about whether it wants to be a realistic hunting game or an arcade. its always been in between and it sometimes gets irritating because its hard to make it out.
not necessarily about realism, I would like to feel comfortably immersed in the role I am playing
300m spook range with 400m render distance is just annoying as hell
I dont think it has gone too far in this game in particular, kinda just pointing out how I feel about realism in games period
It’s not completely either or, it’s a mixture of both
Would be fine with higher spook ranges if I could actually see the animals from a distance
Its been a arcade since 2017
so previous spook range was what?
Like 150m 200
Honestly, the gunfire spook distance has caused me to start using bows and I love it
The best approach IMO would be to add difficulty settings, so that people who want more realistic elements can choose to up the spook range, but arcade type shooters can keep grinding GO's. Literally a no-brainer in terms of business strategy cause you cater to both audiences.
they actualy realsed paid cosmetics?
3 dollars for some weapon skins, yeah
thoght they would realse free skins with evry resve not that they would be an extra 3
I like this idea, would probably be pretty difficult to implement effectively tho
there are skins that come free w every reserve
Literally just copy what WOTH did, depending on engine limitations
ah guess it dosnt rly matter they look shit from what ive seen anyways
Did medved get a pop reset?
I dont think you realize how much work having multiple different difficulty levels for every animal on every map would be. Not to mention, theyd be doing it on an old engine, not a new clean slate like Woth was able to. I think its a good idea but its not that easy to implement
All my medved zones are gone
Weird
I think they deliberately dont want difficulty levels. They want to keep the community more or less equal from the standpoint of hunter skill. If you add difficulty levels then diamonds and GO's kind of become devalued .... Its also hard to keep things balanced with different levels of difficulty
The down side of not having difficulty levels is that sometimes you have to make adjustments to balance the game or to make room for things that may be coming in the future. We really don't know their purpose behind making this change. One thing I do know for certain they didnt do it tick a lot of people off so I say give them the benefit of knowing what they are doing ...
implement hunting seasons, tag all previously earned stuff as legacy, stamp with a date when it was earned
then iterating on the system isn't so painful
Are piebald greenwing rare or uncommon like mallards?
By all means give them feedback on what you think about the change and why .... They may decide to make another adjustment ....
This ^^^ it would ruin the game honestly.
For anyone that needs a semi-clean New England map
@glacial flame @jade thicket This is what your maps should look like 😤
im not sure what the state of the game situation will be in the future, and it is even confusing right now. i know its hard to please everyone and its hard to find a way to think of this game as a certain one thing. i just know its a fun game and i think the update is really good even though its more controversial than previous ones, they still worked hard on it and overall im happy with it
Did they add any new multumounts with this dlc?
Ok thanks
its pretty cool
Really was hoping for like a wood greenwing mount
Now that they have the weapon customization thing under their belt .... I would like to see them adding customization to other things like mounts and multi mounts
I feel like a lot of multimounts could have animals with interchangeable sexes. For example the euro bison and goose one, or the lion and Cape buffalo one. I’d like mounts specifically for ducks where it’s like a terrain mount with any species interchangeable
Honestly customizing mounts and trophy lodges could be a game all it's own ....
just give us the tools and stand back ....
In time yes
alternatively, variants of said mounts, or at least mounts where you can use the other genders of that animal. probably would be easier to implement than basically reworking the entire multimount system
tho that said, i do like the idea
i personally think that the increased spook distance/animals reacting faster is probably one of the best changes in the update and i will take that to my grave
Thanks
haven't played the new update just yet... what happened to the trophy screen? 💀
It got better
It probably got technically better but the previous one looked better imo
with the flat green background it looks like something I would expect from some pre-alpha footage of some small indie game
on the other hand I like that they're finally implementing preview
I'm just saying the new background is literally and figuratively "monotone", and takes away all of the charm of the environment altogether.
Thats about the only downside
the other downside is the awful x-ray mode I'd argue it was better before
Ironically, because the new background is lighter than previous one, the animals don't pop out as much, which I thought was the original point of making the background darker, which they effectively reversed.
haven't seen those, what changed?
it just looks way lighter I guess so it's hard to see where you hit
before it looked a bit more contrasted and sharp
I just think they could have improved it a lot with small changes like the arrow, just give it a bit of color depending on the penetration and make it easy to see where you hit and from where you hit
oh, I see, yea, the previous one had a much darker background* so everything popped up more.
what things got better aside from preview?
Hey, does anyone know where to look for coyotes? I've been trying to find anything (zones, prints, hear calls) and haven't seen a single sign.
I haven't seen or heard any at all either
They are supposed to be on this map, right?
I know they can be at bot right lake atleast
They are on the map. Check the lower half
this lake
Thank you! Gonna head south then
also around this oupost middle and right of the map
Ah, I haven't headed south yet. I was sticking to north
I need a NE diamond moose already, but there seem to be a few max weight and only 4s 😭
I mean why are so many of my zones 4 cows and no bulls
wait, are there no missions on new england?
yes there are?
either i'm stupid and forgot where missions are or my game is fucked
wait a second, i have no mission tab
multiplayer?
nope
Go to system, first option at the top (gameplay I think) and check if your mission system is off
Dw lol
Shot 3 lvl 4 max weight in a row, still no lvl 5 after 10 hours of grinding
hmm moose antlers bob up and down when you run towards it
yeah I saw that too
strange bug tbh
Shot a moose with the caplock Terra but game didn't credit a muzzleloader moose kill for the Olden days mission. Am I missing something?
someone said same thing earlier, probably bugged
Yeah, neither muzzleloader work for the mission
I haven't bought NEM so i wanna ask, hows the hunting and the missions?
one of the missions is broken atm
multiple
I'd say so
you don't have to play the missions to enjoy the map
Lmao
Has anyone gotten a bighorn sheep with symmetrical horns or is my luck just sheep crap?
I've killed like fifty and they're all wonky
@long spade
Man I haven't seen a normal set of horns yet, and I've been working SRP for two days
Is rancho better?
I enjoy rancho a lot more for bighorn
Maybe I'll try that for a few hours, i remember seeing a lot in the right side of the map
yeah big lake right side is good for them
@tired vapor coyotes at hawthorne lake aswell
Thank you, I finally went a bit south and found a feeding zone! I am gonna head there too
pretty much this.
I actually like the spook changes. they are just not quite fit to the game's currently imposed limitations.
either way I believe that one was a net gain
What’s up with the g1 moose’s fur both yt vids have found them as commons
Moose GOs have common variants, with the ones that Jaxy showed off being “rares”
95% common i think
So NEM is good outside the missions?
aesthetically yes, hunting opportunitywise yes, overall nice addition except the bugs
Hopefully they’re nowhere near as rare as fabled piebald
See I love small predators so I'm really wanting NEM but the bugs worry me
I honestly really want to start a fox grind but if I so much as hear a moose I'm probably going to throw my laptop out a window
and...yeah, any bugs present are across all maps.
Chill mane it’s really not that deep
is it that bad? Cuz holy shit
for me it kind of is. I was really looking forward to grinding for the fur types. Then I found out they're rare, on an animal that can already take a year to grind for.
So far the only bug I've had was losing my zones on parque, and if i'm honest that doesn't bother me
I'm worried if im on the map it'll start crashing
Even still, you should check your moose IniSpawns for diamonds/rares
Can’t hurt right?
And if you do end up finding a great one, wouldn’t hurt to shoot it and throw it in the lodge of shame if you think it deserves so
At the very least you can say you got and didn’t have to grind for it
Oh I rage quit medved last night
Is two tones gray fox rare or uncm
Common
Ah
wolves, moose, murderbirds, wolves again in like three minutes
So I just taxied a random gray fox thinking it was rare
murderbirds?
Nice
Capercalie
Capercaille
ah yeah I forgot about those
When are the moose fur types going to get fixed
so did i and it scared me off a cliff
It depends if the devs actually oblige and change the rarity/remove the common fur type for GOs altogether
oh I had my first on-foot encounter with wolves last night
And seeing as how they’ve been reacting to suggestions/complaints lately, it’s pretty likely
not even two minutes after I spawned into Cuatro for the first time this save
Huh
I just read the patch notes “ the majestic moose is now present as one of the 𝙀𝙭𝙩𝙧𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙡𝙮 rare great ones”
Yeah just like every other great one
Yeah? They fit medved so well, It's hard to believe they werent there for so long
Pheasants💀
I heard cautro is goated for em
Only issue is continuity
The warden states that wolves were hunted to near extinction and lynx filled their niche
New packs moved in, it happens, and a local population going extinct doesn't always doom the entire species
Oh no I’m aware
I’m just saying that playing through the missions there’ll be a bit of inconsistency
Iirc, doesn't she just say that when the wolves moved out the lynx moved in?
and now they moved back in
Doesn’t make sense since we have a high population of wolves on Medved now
They can easily redo the script for the missions probably
especially since we now know they're willing to bring back VA's for past wardens
There's a large population of caribou too, wolves follow prey, they're hunting caribou like the rest of us
I mean, caribou taste reeeaaallly good man
wait, what?
Do you want a spoiler for the New England story mission?
I can explain but it’s spoilers if you haven’t done them yet
I should say no, but yes please!
||They brought back Doc, the warden from Layton||
Papa
Went down like brothers in arms
Yes, Papa lol
Interesting, I wonder if that means other reserves will get a call back in new maps?
It would be neat if they do
They're opening a lot of doors with this update huh?
Is it just me or they improved basically all the albinos?
Yeah, my grizz looks awesome now, the mela one too
they display more of those rosy undertones like irl.
very nice.
The foxes look so much better now too, no more pipe cleaners
foxes look much heathier yes
Is it true that they reworked the faces of the Mufflon? I heard this in the new video of lady legend but never see someone post about it.
Cash killed enough lynx that the wolves were able to return
ok these are way creepier than i thought
i haven't seen it mentioned anywhere
Wtf
time to add baboons to vurhonga
wood devil (mentioned in campaign)
Thought it was a screwed up meerkat
lollll
spoiler ||DUDE THE GUY FROM LAYTON LAKE APPEARS ON NEW ENGLAND STORY||
i almost tears lol
Yeah, same here, especially if you did all missions on layton and you're attached to the map
Omg, I just got moosed off the cliff in Medved
SPOILES
truth
If I get NEM how far can I get in the missions before they get bugged?
please don't spoil it for anyone else just a number will do
tbh the missions ae kinda dissapointing
||the bear spooked me though||
I mean I haven't finished them yet but I haven't had any yet some people have had problems with a Mission it seems like about what I'm guessing is a little past halfway through tho I've not heard of anybody getting around it but I also haven't heard it much so I don't know if it's an easy fix or what about it
I think I'm gonna go for it, if it's spotty then that's not as bad as I was hearing. Besides a hotfix shouldn't be too far off now right?
Yeah with all of the different things and everything else there's a good chance there might be a hot fix sooner than later than normal
pheasants in hirsch now?
This update killed grinding sm
oh noice
And urkeys on Layton
What’s a max wieght estimate track for black bear
Lb or kg?
frrr
Kg
290 iirc
Ok thanks 🙏
Give me a sec to confirm
animals can hear u from 200 or 250 meters now?
Yeah it's 290 kg
300 meters.
Walking or shooting?
walking and running
Walking it's 130-150 running is 180-200 that's without backpacks
It also depends on the animal and what level it is
Like you can almost run up to like 30 m on a female roe deer but a Max level black bear will hear you from 200 220 yards away running
It also depends on perks
Lady legend said it was 270
That's shooting
Yes
without it hearing?
Yes general rule of thumb you can run to around 180 m and most animals won't hear you you can walk to 130 most animals won't hear you
Very high level animals though have very high level senses like a diamond black bear will hear you running from around 200 m away
ah
ok
well im going to get back to my grind on red deer to get a level 9 one on my map
How is the story mode on the new map?
should i shoot red deer when their heads are down if im going for multiple or just wait for em to come back
Saw a bighorn, it looked even on both sides, shot it, got to it. Wonky as drunk man's drawings
bro im so confused
i could see whitetail trophy rating and i cant see red deer bruh
probably going crazy anyways
Not lost. Animals just got shuffled around.
It seems like populations were mixed around a little bit not reset for a number of species on maps that got added species
No it was changed with the update yesterday
Oh i lost all the zones i had marked in Parque
So to answer question yes people lost need zones but didn't lose the population that was in those zones
That's probably because of javelina getting added and they had to move stuff around
The same thing happened with at least Red deer in New Zealand because of mallards
I knew they were adding animals but I didn't my marked zones would be affected
Not for me, all my TA zones are fine, just the ones in parque cleared
I never count on everything be the same after an update
ok got my .300, .243, and .22, ready for NEM
That stupid copper muzzlebrake still gets me
bruh sad
Yeah
Seeing the map, i get why people were comparing it to GA
Aside from the moose that is
iron sight shot from between 60-100 meters
deer
I see what Lyra meant about the moose . . . .
literally only found pheasant in the top left corner anyone seen any anywhere else?
ugh baden's here too isn't he?
i've found them in the big mountains in the middle of the map and the fields in the south
I think i'd kick baden in the shins
south right or left?
been down left and havent seen any myself
update seems to have wiped my revontuli

💀💀💀💀💀
its wiped my pop file for this map too
So uhm, I can the bobcat edition of Mr. Negative thru a rock wall
thank god i did a backup save...
I understand what you meant about moose now
This map is game rich, haven't left the first outpost and ive seen moose, WT, bobcat and quail
submitted
along with requested files
should i reload my backup save?
It really is
Holy crap , the first WT i got on NEM is only twelve points off diamond
Considering how Rev an NEM are, do you think all the future maps will follow this pattern?
What do you mean
More widespread big animals with blanks spots on the map filled by small game/predators
Ah, I thought you meant the animal scoring high
you can stumble on high scores about anywhere but the way the last two maps have been set up feels more natural and alive
Yeah... Hope some day I'll get an initial spawn GO
if you do, go buy a lotto ticket
Yeah, how about an initial spawn for all species of great ones on a single map
First turkey is .22 off diamond
Are diamonds meant to be easy on this map or did I just get lucky with initials?
Lucky with initials
has to be, haven't made it to the first tower yet
@uneven bloom should i reload my backup saved game or should i just wait before continuing to play?

well i mean like if they fix this and i still have my backup save can i just reload it and NOT have everything gone?
oh it was definitely a "loss of progression" bug, which there's nothing they can do about.
But considering the manner of the update, going back to an older save has a chance of breaking even more things.
oh...i thought if they identify and fix the bug while i still have the working backup save without the progression loss i'd just be able to play it post-patch and not have to lose all that
So considering all the bugs it’s probably a good idea to not update until they put a fix out?
depends on how much you value your entire revontuli coast
I’m 962 kills into a WT grind on Revontuli rn, so very much
then yes youll probably want to wait
though im the first one who's experienced this issue, to my knowledge
iv had a loss of progress bug 4 diffrent times
best thing i could do is restart all over
my revontuli seemed fine when i spawned in for 5 seconds to get my load out ready
the loss of progress thing has been a bug for a LONG time sadly
Haven't got into the missions but I'm loving NEM just for the map
I did the missions didn't take long and got my map all unlocked luckily the first multiplayer map I logged had tents at every lookout Tower and a few outpost
damn this update was hella rushed
so many bugs
whats the moose drink time?
thanks
Where did all of my legendary red deer go? I’ve checked all the lakes they could be at and I’m missing 4 of them
Not to mention all my zones got ramshacked
I think a lot of people dont realize that without special furs, nothing would really set the GO bear apart
I get common fur for a GO kinda sucks, but I dont see why it should be removed
So @livid needle whats this wemod thing
😮
Its open just hidden
Lmfao
Must be very ez with that lmao
i remember ony of my mates thinking about hacking but didnt after i told him i wouldnt play with him anymore 😄
So he hid the bottom of the desktop
lmfao
How good is the new map
i like it
Don’t worry it’s just a glitch
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
K look at this
Just a glitch 🤣
💀
<@&393042322499305473> so in the screenshot you can see he has a cheat engine open. I’d like to recommend removing his posts if you’d be so kind
caught lacking hard 💀
Bro forgot to close wemod before the screenshot 💀

yeah I see nothing wrong here
At least it’s slightly less obvious than a guy who posted a max weight max score albino Lion with 50,000,000 cash 😂😂
Who @ me?
Sorry I made a dumb joke
No new great ones posted?
Not yet the grind slowed down for many
Was there talk earlier about a shooting range on this map?
one of the missions says theres a target practice area
no clue if its an actual range or just some beer cans set up on a stump
Does anyone know what happened to the red deer on te awaroa I’m missing multiple lvl 9’s
WHAT WAS THAT
Train maybe
oh yeah i just realized i was next to the scenic railroad thingy
What program u use to recording
nvidia shadowplay
there's an actual train that goes by
it's on yukon too
He's been seeing it for me.
or at least i assume it exists on this map because it's on one of the loading screens
it scared me to death
i wanna get hit by it
i tried to put my atv in the way on yukon
how'd that go
I had to do the play command though to get him to look for stuff at first
train phased trough it
damn
a train jhahahaha
The deer look amazing now
This is bringing me back to cotw after all the shit I talked about it lol
i talked shit too, i dont like that 2022 only 1 new mammal. but i buy reserves anyway
Theres no way you can convince me birds aren’t the best species
i dont like ducks
All of the birds are the best
i dont really like waterfowl either
i hated 6th north american map 😂
they should have been stopped at the 3rd
I have a pheasant irl that was given to me by my grandpas friend who doesn’t have children so i love uplands because the first game bird i have been able to see up close i am gonna hunt crows in the next future
the only other NA maps I want to see are a Saskatchewan-set one for ducks (and Manitoban elk), and Arctic Canada.
something like really arctic would be nice
maybe seals etc?
they could be done almost in the same type of hunting as gators
These were ideas for the game i am making I would like to see these in any of the games i play (don’t care about the classes they are the way i wanted them)
i say it is better add some new mmamals to yukon instead of making a new map. i think new map should be africa or another location with truly 7-8 new mammals
that arctic map seems so good!
What time do moose and bear drink
Does offline mode not work as well?
All bears 20-0
Moose 12-16
12-16 for moose, don't know bear
Good ole Texas heart shot
I hope they make bear drink time in the evening and not in the dark at some point
i like artic
but we have 2 northenr maps to add theese animals
Oh my god they have improved this game so much
Its a little lot of uplands just a idaho native suggested them and he’s nice so i put everything he wanted in the game
I just tried to jump into my offline account, if I open the weapon locker the game freezes and says theres no content
I like revontuli coast because home is home 🇫🇮 ❤️
nice
the trees are so detailed and it has different biomes
The game looks beautiful
north mid and low lands look different in revontuli
Question where do moose bear and wt drink
i seen some good wt at deer's eye lake on the south side of it
my grandparents have that exact same lamp
this map gets a 10/10 for accuracy
(i live in ne)
sick 😂
the game does so good with old engine
it looks very beautiful
even with not that high requirements
i loved the "rally english" when revontuli came out
it was a proud moment
The colors on the new map make it very pleasing even with the bs in the update
yeah the colors are so pretty
reminds me of my need to travel to lapland next autumn
its not as colorful but the ruska is still beautiful
You a fan of Neebs?
It's a little nostalgic cuz I'm from Wisconsin and it's kindve what it looks like up north in fall
if you mean the battlefield youtuber i used to watch him as a kid
I thought that pfp was familiar, I just found them not long ago, theyre funny as hell
