yeah i remember waiting for the new episode of "battlefield friends" to drop
anyone know moose drink time?
Ha, i been watching their ARK videos, something i can put on in the background and listen to while i other stuff
12-16
What is diamond for green wing teal
lmao i think the turkeys are sleepy
Increased spook distance what now?
i also managed to crouch up to a cow moose until it was 8m away
Yup did that too and I pissed it off and it chased me half way across the map
i was trying to piss it off but it didnt work sadly
Any good spots for moose found yet? I noticed that at a few outposts there are Moose zones w/in 150m. But do they produce good animals?
thicc
Is there a mission animal???
a female bear attacked me for a mission lol
so technically yes
idk about side missions
Hahaha
guess you were right
Ever since this update whenever I play NE and exit to my desktop the game freezes and crashes
when are we going to get our coon hats
it's probably baked, which means it's not actually simulated. this is great for static lighting since no performance impact, and beautiful all the same.
it is looks great . jin my opinion only it needs a bit longer render
My friend accidentally taxed a diamond teal that I shot and I claimed it first without even seeing that I shot cuz I thought he shot it but backed out of it and let him claim it and told me that I shot it right after he taxed it 🫠
trapper outfit from classic maybe?
anybody got a revontuli tent map for grinding whitetail/moose?
like a general layout
@midnight moon I have a general map but its a stream map. As far as direct place to put your tent. I have one on each side of the swap in the northeast corner
Same with Northwest corner up on the rocky flats (full of deer..who would ahev thought)
Heres the Stream link for spawns areas https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?l=dutch&id=2096067056
It’s easy to do it with low level animals
The higher level the animal the more skiddish they are
Also the less likely they are to go aggro (if they can)
Higher levels are more likely to just run
How does the new spook meter work ?
2 questions:
-
How do i get the big harvest screen on xbox? Since the update changed the game to NOT fit into the screen completely, the button prompts are covered up out of screen.
-
The 4th target on the side quest "don't fear failure" cannot be hit for some reason. Anyone got any tips?
Now there is a view for the kill of a beverage 💕
Yeah my trophy lodge looks so bad. The textures are so low res. The antlers like wobble and blur when you walk through it. Not good
Anyone else walk up to a glitched moose and use it as a ground blind lol
yes
pre
read that as beaver for some reason
What classes is there?
Wow. Now the “ja krabbit” caller can call in 3 species all at once
Red Fox, Grey Fox and Coyote on NME
Ups NEM
Oh, and bobcat, any more I’m forgetting?
Pretty sure you're NOT supposed to mount a trophy plaque like...this...
Yeah, nuisance people wrecked that hut good. What a mess.
wait weren't we supposed to be able to put waypoints with binocs?
You can button r does it for me
thats for PC ... not sure how you do it on console ... I understand there are some issues with consoles
square on ps4, mildly annoying
Anyone else feel like the moose is just majorly skittish? I was 300m away standing still, with the wind in my favor and they ran away…
New spook radius is 300 meters
But I was literally not moving lol
it still depends on what back pack u use to u make more noise
i think its a lil glitchy at the moment im sure they will look at it and make a change
Oh I misunderstood lol
I thought you didn’t know about the new spook radius for firearms
Nope. Was just standing still glassing the lake and they ran
What map?
Yukon
Could’ve been wolves perhaps
But it’s been happening for me on layton and Rev Coast
Like I’m not this bad at the game. I’ve been playing for years 😂
It’s only the moose for me too.
I've had the opposite problem
I was able to crouch up to 8m from a moose
No cover at all and bad wind
I have noticed at least with white tails and Elk that the doe's and cows are far less skittish than the bucks and bulls. may be the same with Moose
Antacids might help with the wind
i play on pc but play on controller and it does it for me everytime i spot something too lol
its not necessarily a console thing its a controller thing
So you are telling me moose are literally everywhere?
For about every map they are on, yes
I'm not going to say it
Moose and Cottontail Rabbits are everywhere on NE Mtns
I wish they would add beagles to make hunting rabbits more fun ....#882552632793767966 message
Most people just ignore the critters
Rabbits are hard for me to see; will shoot them when I can but they move so fast and usually in so much brush.
Rabbits are more shot out of boredom in a stand or opportunistic for me if spot em while wabdering the map.
Rabbits to me are almost ambient, I ignore them for the most part
Thats why when you hunt them with dogs IRL you try to position yourself In a clear area so that when the dogs chase the rabbit into that clearing you can get a better shot at him ....
Rabbits IRL will not go far from a burrow .... When chased they will run in a wide circle and eventually come back to where they were jumped .
?
if I have a lake with just tiny moose should I delete the zones?
Leave it
Keep low level animals on your map
Shoot 3s and up for animals that max at 5
can 4s make diamond
Rarely.
I have one myself, just doesn’t happen often
Iirc there’s only one level 4 rack that can make diamond
274.99 Is diamond score for moose
Could you post the full harvest screen, please?
Going forward, then.
why?
It looks suspicious when you leave out half the screen.
o k
I apologize
is it because cheaters do 1000 meter shots or something
no because people steal trophies
There’s identifying features of modded trophies or people stealing screenshots and claiming as their own
how do I reset my gun color?
I see
More like "within autospook range".
And yeah, people steal shots too. It's happened to myself before, actually.
im sorry to hear that
lyra
theres a video of a go moose getting shot is it real?
can i link it here
Would fall under Rule F unless it's a CC.
I would be highly suspect of a GO taken this early
it happens
cc?
content creator
oh
This map is packed
I've got five zones in a short section of creek with bear, moose, deer and both foxes
roundabout for how many moose drink zones there are in revontuli?
or is it unknown
(how many to each map)
Thank you for the share, yes I'd say that was completely legit! Such a beautiful rack on it too.
No worries! love to help
it was legit
Love to see that! I got all excited lol
kean online after 3 days?
im always online
i just saw a 9 legendary coyote on layton
i saw that
bro i just went to grab my stuff and on my way to the tracks my game crashed
Hey Jaxy, any chance you could tell us if the 6 unique fur types for the moose GO are as rare as fabled piebald for whitetail GO? People have been really upset over the supposed rarity of those fur types
I have been looking into this with a vengeance my friend. I'll share more when we learn details
should i shoot it when i get the chance or just leave it on my map lol
shoot
Thanks Jaxy. Can’t wait to hear more
Anyone else having problems with the visit landmark missions
And the mission to kill wildlife with bow from at least 100m?
what map
idk then
Wish could access my steam cotw on my phone. I can play xbox games pass on my phone but its just the base game
You using the new Asus phone by chance?
I've heard good things
No galaxy s20 ultra. I connect an elite 2 controller and cloud stream stuff
My COTW purchases are all on steam though not game pass 😔
Any decent harveats on NE yet Jaxy. I got trolled by a lev 9 grey fox yesterday lol
Haven't had time to play this week with the release. Hoping to tomorrow if I can make it happen. Hope to push the buttons 😉
Please post this in #882552595745484801 so we can track it.
Ok I will
I opened a couple outposts and a lookout. Did the 1st explore mission until the grey fox distracted me. Might go for a long session tomorrow myself.
analysis?
It was using the tree as a scratching post for its belly lol. Been a few odd angled animals apparently
Wrong place to ask, probably, but are y'all considering a weapons rework? the .270, 6.5, and .30-30 being shuffled to 3-7 would give us a lot more variety for class 3 animals and make them all a little more viable for future maps
honestly its not something currently on the radar
it would be really nice to be able to hunt roe deer and springbok with the .270, maybe in the future?
i agree it would be. honestly as we see the team taking a big focus on QOL this could be a thing down the line. strongly suggest adding it in #882552632793767966 so people will have a chance to upvote it and we can track it
I did suggest it a couple days ago, there's quite a few class three animals but not many weapons in the same class. I'm hoping coyotes and Jackals get the same love the foxes got, they look stunning now. EW is making everything look amazing lately
So Jaxy how bout that spook distance lol. Heard much about it 😛
wish we had a .22 air rifle, could pop bunnies quietly that way
the one from classic brought to cotw maybe 🙄
that'd be nice actually
I think gunshot spookrange is 280 m
honestly they could bring over all the guns/gear from classic and I'd be happy
I know uts changed I was just havi g a stir at Jaxy as its been mentioned a lot lol
All the antelope are class three right?
Kinda like before the map release someone asked every 10 min whens it coming out. Had to stir up the mods on that too hehe
Antelope?
whatever are you referring? 😇 🤣
makes note to ask on stream
It has upset my tripod layouts on the lakes but that will be fixed with a bit of trial and error. The whole redistribution of my deer and need zones I cpuld have done without though lol.
Still havent found 1 of the 3 level 9s I had on my map but its probably at a zone I stopped visiting a while ago.
A fine, rare, piece of wood 🙂
Yes I love how it hovers
If my dog keeps running in circles around my tripod like the coyote used to in feed time he will be mounted on a plaque
Peacfully sitting in tripod spotting deer and all I hear is thud thud thud thud look down he is running in circlesike an idiot.
What time do bobcats drink on new england mountains
3 to 6. Raccoons also drink from 3 to 6 on NE
Thx
Forgot about the ducks on vurhonga, confused the hell outta me for longer than i wanna admit
Wut
I love hunting early morning. That a little early but not too bad, with an hour of light
Im sleeping to the time of my need zones but there arent any animals
am I doing something wrong
nah, takes a little while for them to get in the zone
so should I sleep later?
if you want, i usually just wait in a tripod for a bit
What button do you press to place a waypoint with binoculars on computer?
r i think
Anyone who gets a fabled piebald great one whitetail should also put in for the powerball too! 😂 because the odds are closer than you think
I know they're much more rare than an albino quail, but albino diamond quail 🤔
Omg i was just dancing with a buffalo for like ten minutes hoping it would bleed out
I would still say super rare quail is still more rare
We have almost had more ultra rare whitetail than we have had albino quail
We seriuosly need a .375 or .416, something that can punch holes in aggressive buffalo and follow up faster than the double
3 round 375 bolt action is what I dream of for Africa 2.0
Give it stupid recoil and slow next shot time it would be perfectly balanced
The Cats and the Cradle reference is 👍🏼
Oh yes
It is amazing and made me tear up just a tad bit
This was one of my favorite main mission lines in the game
as long as it's not 90000
I mean it would be well worth it
That's only less than 100 kills
Two or three hours of waterfowl hunting will buy it
That was a really good story
Got me in my feelings
The team really put a lot of effort into it I can tell
I just need a rifle to match the .454 pistol
Oh i know, if the guns were a little more realistic I'd enjoy this game a lot more
Apparently cape buffalo can throw an atv
I was half the map away from any outposts doing the missions and just got crushed
Herd of buffalo comes out of tall grass and suddenly you're two freaking kilometers from the mission!
ngl, that's why I don't go on Vurhonga much
don't like that the ATV can aggro buffalo
and they don't give up either
Waiting for heavy weapon dlc so we can just rpg the herd
Class 100
That's the problem, the sobs just don't spook they try to kill you
is there like a "kill counter" for weapons in the game? havent played in a while
I love vurhonga, kudu and springbok are my two favorite animals in the game but it's an absolute nightmare to hunt them
Yes
display a weapon in the lodge. inspect and it tells you a lot
It keeps track of individual kills of a particular weapon, one shot kills, and shots missed
- best trophy
Well best score in multiplayer I think right?
awesome ty
ugh is my luck just shit or do kudu zones only pop up with buffalo zones for everyone?
Kudu live in buffaloland, so...yeah
New character
Why is everyone using Medved for moose?
not as much foliage
@placid venture even old maps have that 🤣
good to know the quality of content has stayed consistent
i got knocked by buffalo six times on vurhonga just doing missions
Lol
found three level 5 moose on my map from the reset every single one trolled
how do you save harvests with the new harvest screen?
its the first time i've genuinely rage quit a game
Buffalos will chase you to the end of the earth to kill you just cause you made noise
QOL, buffalo don't go aggressive until you are within fifty yards
just made a feedback thing
Sincerely, thank you.
I am seriously not enjoying the game, there is no immersion because of the amount of bugs, especially animals glitching into trees and getting stuck.
I am also going to be eagerly awaiting the remodeling of fallow, roe, and blacktail deer
I love the roe deer, it's a fun hunt, there are way too few class three weapons though
This is a thing? I want new blacktail sooo bad
WT, moose, and red foxes all saw remodels this most recent update, so I'm tentatively assuming it's in the pipe
...fallow deer especially need it imo.
Coues
Cuesss?
It's Coues
Hmmmm
I know it's another NA map
BUT
Texas/Axis deer, dama gazelle, nilgai, wild hogs, WT, coyote, javelina, impala, merriam turkey, jackrabbits
why do they constantly add maps which are identical like new england, yukon valley and silver ridge peaks. They are essentially the same map... When will they add something cool like australia with kangaroos or africa with elephants
Honestly I hope theyve made all the NA maps they want for a while
We need australia or africa, and desperately
they do it based on community votes
a lot of the people here like NA maps or at least the NA species
They also have their own roadmap.
NEM has likely been in development since last year.
Is console chat missing? I see pc
Do you have it muted + muted channels hidden?
You have better odds of winning the powerball for either of those 😂
They've done so many maps with tons of similarities already though
I just don’t get how they haven’t noticed the fabled piebald is obviously bugged with its spawn
There has been a legit one. The guy alt-mashed and then Rule J'd the hell out of it, but it was still otherwise a legit spawn.
How can you be certain it was a legit spawn?
Not that I see Tactical. Hmm odd. There’s a red question mark Help and tips where it normally is
Because you can hack on console
Just pinged you in there.
You could always #📜︴support and see what happens, if you really think something's broken
But yeah, if fabled piebald is the rare fit for whitetail good luck to anyone who wants a fur for the moose. Gonna be one hell of a grinding trip 😂
Fur*
JMO, the new map (what I have seen) is very realistic though I’ve never seen the northern part. But my hunting on the N Carolina, Georgia and Tennessee on the southern end looks just like this. Just needs turkeys to be grouped in the 20’s instead of singles. Oh and deer need to hid deeper in the brush and flip you off while blowing. Would be just like home 😄
that makes sense
I might buy medved for it honestly
NEM It is so beautiful I'm forgetting why I'm there.
very nice looking
My game ctd'd just as I picked up my biggest raccoon ever
I assume this isnt intended? (please ignore the backround noise)
yeah the text-to-speech voice is a bug
ah ok
thanks lyra
if you can get a clip without any background sound, #📜︴support
lol
I was watching youtube unfortunately
medved has so many animals
Is the mission Second Home bugged? Can’t click the trash can at the outpost.
Did Medved get a new animal
2 animals got added to medved. Gray wolf and capercallie
is silver ridge the only one that didnt get anything?
Hey, Rameen, the swamps in Rev are great for moose
Yep and revontuli didn't either
I'd have liked to see reindeer on Rev
The reasoning for reindeer not being on Rev is because extremely few permits for hunting them are put out in Finland
what about mountain goats in SRP then?
are reindeer tags in Finland more rare than mt goat tags in the rockies?
By far, from what I can tell.
I can't even find the number for reindeer tags in Finland
But what I can tell is the area that we are probably hunting in the game is a different area than where reindeer even live
they arent super fussy about that part as long as its the general area (example being the sika deer and chamois in the same place on te awaroa when they are on completely different new zealand islands in real life) so id say its def the tag thing for the reindeer
Then would roe deer be a better fit?
mf working for santa now
pfffttt
can anyone tell me if the ring necked pheasents fur is Molting rare?
It is not.
thanks
what app would everyone reconmend to use to screenshot kills?
How's the new muzzle loader?

It gets double lung on moose and downs them under 100m of running most the time for me
It's not as good as the other but it's better than the 300 in my opinion on them
what new animal did mississppi get?
Green-winged teal
is there a way to reset my gun colors? or at least take a color off
It's clearly the New Hampshire DLC
Can't wait to play nh
And I mean technically it's not wrong
True the new Hampshire abbreviation is nh
At least capitalize the H
Call of WHAT?!!
I just noticed this but do you have to manually rechamber your bolt action now?
Check your settings.
Things are still automatic for me, and I know manual rechambering is an option
Wait yeah there is
Anyone else stuck on Top-Secret Mission on New England? I’ve done everything and the guy told me the stuff about the wood devil, but the mission won’t end so I can’t progress.
lol broken much?
Do u have to buy New England to get the green wing decoys because I can’t figure out how to hunt the green wing on Mississippi
Do you have the waterfowl hunting DLC?
Have ypu taken the maple syrup to the outpost?
Yes, the guy even told me about the wood devil thing being a joke, but the mission never ended for some reason. Think it’s bugged for me
Yes
Haha wondered if that was the missed part. I was glad I was too lazy to care what a wood devil was and went to outpost to rest instead. Apparebtly a few people had mission issues maybe check support thread see if anyones had similar and found fix
Froogs
Frogie
NE has locked up my computer when I exit to desktop bith times now so havent been back on it yet to do more missions.
How small can the GO moose be?
same bridge in ac3 right?
AC3 is the best of the AC series to me
Honestly, the new muzzleloader is my favorite thing for whitetails
I found my best moose spot on Rev, upper right corner of the map the bogs called Rameen
Four drink zones, a tower stand on one side already and my best bulls so far
Taiga is the easiest for moose, since the animal population went up, you literally see moose and wolf at every corner
I just watched a cow moose go aggro on a lynx. . . . . .cool
👀
I didn't know they could aggro on predators, that's actually really cool
I shot the lynx, yes
there ya go
Diamond Lynx. But it doens't feel legitimate because the moose had it locked in place
wat
The moose was running around it but the lynx was standing still watching the moose when I shot
It's absolutely my biggest lynx ever but it feels cheaty cuz it might have been glitched
how big?
99.21 pounds/28.98 score, .243 pistol
DAYUM
is that good?
thats max score to my knowledge
You're kidding me?!
It's my first diamond on a new PS4 account, I got a trophy for it too
Revontuli Coast is officially my favorite map of all time
based opinion
revontuli is factually the most fun map in the game
any other opinion is wrong
😂
I lucked into my first and only diamond lynx earlier, Rev is my new hero
Gonna have to go visit Rev I think
Revontuli is quite good
the line at the bottom of the binoculars is distracting
ik
it looks odd
its a bug

I hate bird hunting, they fly straight into the trees
fr
Birds should have a lower spook radius, they hold until you're really close irl.
Location, location, location...
the game is going to a complete run and shoot game...animal behavior not even adressed anymore, wolfes on medved just stay there , shot after shot until all are dizimated. This isn t hunting anymore
I noticed the same on Medved. A pack of wolves didn't attack me and didn't run away they just hung out while I shot them.
Predators been bugged like that for a while, wolves and lions mostly
On the Olden days mission, I shot several Moose, with both the Curman and the Hudzik and it didn't count them. However, once I bowshot a turkey, the next moose I shot finished the mission with the Curman. Don't know if the Hudzik will work.
Family Album Mission
Yes upland birds need some love .... Also pointers would be nice ....
Hello Hunters, do we know if the New England map exist in the real world .. or it's an artistic representation of White Mountains park ?
It’s not a real reserve
Just like every single other reserve
It’s based off of real life locations and settings but don’t actually exist to my knowledge
Birds are easy, and they fly slow again, just gotta set up your blind in an open area. Geese fly in against the wind, so remember that when you set up, and if you wait until they all land you should be able to easily get at least 2 off of each flock, I can do it with controller and I suck, so you can do it too 🙂
And if you want a good spot for NE, bottom left, the "brain" lake there is great for all 3 species, its close to an outpost, and has a stand already if you don't have a blind.
I don't care for duck, geese, or game birds, at least not enough to set up for them
Well, they practically land on me when I hunt them, and only get spooked when really close or if they catch my scent bc i didn't set up properly. So imo the spook radius for birds is still fine.
bird hunting in cotw has come a long way. just a year ago we didnt have a whole lot of species and on top of that, it just was not nearly as enjoyable to hunt them
This reserve is awesome for duck hunting
Whys it gotta be such a pain to post a screenshot from a ps4?
the upland birds i mean, they hold tight until they get flushed
Yeah I think we need a bird dog to properly hunt those, maybe in the future.
yeah ducks either land too far, or right on top of you and thus spook immediately
i feel this pain, on another note I got an albino moose on Rev
Nice
Post to twitter but make it private then go to your phone or pc and download the image ez
My phone lierally died the second after i took the pic lol
Posted a pic of the moose and a diamond lynx ( Cashnip said it was big but idk) i got earlier in the trophy gallery
I missed a big buck this morning it sucked
I’m going to put cams and see if he comes back
I'm assuming this is an #🥩︴irl-hunting thing?
Honestly both
I go in the game and have a morning hunt everyday tho
Cams would be helpful with animals that don't have a drink time in game
Yeah
This is for white tales
Oh yeah, had a weird thing happen this morning, a cow moose went aggressive on a lynx
I didn't know they could go aggressive toward other animals and it was a cool encounter to watch
I've been getting the tts bug on Rev all day but I'm on ps4, if i can snag a clip would it helpful to submit ?
Yes.
I'll try to snag a clear clip then
I was attacked by a diamond Capercailie
and my game crashed. perfect.
I have yet to see a rare goldeneye. I’m convinced they don’t exist
I tabbed out and almost got mugged by some gray wolves on medved
think I got it submitted
Wtf they look the same
Yes the bottom is a male eclipse is like a pre mating season color so it looks more like the lady's
And dark is just a little darker then normal
Oh gotcha I didn’t see the second was a male
I really want a blue hybrid teal
Oh this ain't good, my game's crashed three times in ten minutes
why cant i construct this
is it your map
yes
some of the prompt hitboxes are weird
BINGO
also what the heck are wood devils? i gotta take a pic of one
@uneven bloom is that a better screenshot for you
Screenshots like that are perfect.
Bigfoot of new England
second diamond moose first of grind
yeah but is it scripted where you take a pic of it?
cus idk how im supposed to find that
it's a joke fella
it'll autocomplete
Yeah, Rev is sweet
I dont like you
. . . . uh,sorry?
I have no albinos
Lol
I have beeno and pie no diamond or mela
Cashnip said this was really big too?
oh you have no diamond moose specifically?
go get one!
Yeah I just have 6 trolls so far
Diamond Capercailies rare?
Max weight and 0.02 from what is sayed max score
Not really they're like Ibex
wtf really?
still cant believe scarecrow's first grind diamond for moose is a melanistic
Yes that lynx is as big as they can get
omg that makes me feel awful
How why?
the wood devils thing?
yeah
ok but i have no idea what im supposed to screenshot for the mission
All you have to do is go to the marked outpost
It was stuck by an aggro cow moose, a cheap shot
the "screenshot" bit autocompletes
Lol
Well you have this biggest of the biggest of lynx now you need to get him a beautiful wife for the mount
if I only have a cow at a spot its safe to cross of the zone right
Mostly yeah
nevermind I apparently missed a max weight here
At least i got my Albino legit, I was grinding moose and caught him at the lake
I think this outpost is barellllly too close to the zone
oh hold on I want to show something
this is a 280 diamond
this is a 268 max 271
call me crazy, but the second one looks better
minus the uh
Sleep there until the next day and crouch crawl out you'll sneak right on them
little error
meaning the animals arent loaded in
ohh even better
Anyone on ps4 able to help me get my lookouts
What is the new muzzleloader called?
.50 Curman Inline
Thanks!
np
If you wanna go on a duck hunt on new england mountains xbox only mesage me we have 1 guy so far coming
It's at 7 btw
do capercailies have a aggro distance or somethin?
I don't think so from experience
i just splattered a diamond trying to attack me wile i was scouting moose spots
Nice job
I got 2 pheasants today in irl
#🥩︴irl-hunting with that, please.
I've taken 12 ish moose in an hour, mostly golds, is that a good start on the grind or no?
I have a max weight fox track that I have a zone for but I can’t find him in it
What do I do
@midnight moon I've a worse 284 how about that
Yeah, I don't like that rack
Big but no bowtie
WTH?! I walked away for two minutes to get a drink and a capercailie attacked me
I got like a tenth of a bar of health
Lmfao
Why my bullets not reaching the target I want
last night it was the buffalo, now these stupid birds
hate that glitch but i have no answer for you
anybody else dislike the .300's iron sghts?
thats what i mean, i wish they were more open
Can't wait til they add metallic and new wood materials to customizations
which map do i get, rancho, new england, cuatro colinas, medved, aworoa
i’m tryna stay away from moose maps also so probably remove medved and new england
Just shot this
nice
Personally I would go with te arawoa or cuatro
Te is really good for red deer and has sika
Cuatro is a beautiful map with good lakes and a lot of goat species to hunt, 5 iirc
i’m gonna do te just because of the red deer, thanks man really appreciate it
No worries
Also fallow deer
Chamois can be real fun to hunt too if you can find them
Thanks
If you need help finding fallow on Te Dm me im big on hunting them
All zones I discovered last night on New England are missing tonight. Is that a known issue? The zones from the night before are still there though.
sounds like a progression loss bug
Does new England come with turkey callers and decoys or is that just silver ridge peaks
Just silver
Dang
I'm 1000% certain that's an oversight
turkey callers/decoys should honestly be added to the base game, considering turkeys are base game now
Have any of you had a bug where you can’t check off the mount Alcott observatory on the New England landmarks quest?
I’m having that, I visited the location before I got the quest and went back there again and can’t complete the side mission.
Very much agreed
Cuatro was a better pick. Also has red deer but scenery is far better
Don't listen to them I don't own silver and bought New England it gave me callers
They may have not known that
Cuatro WAS better for red deer
I just love the scenery alo easy money on mouflon. Red deer are concentrated on the map so easy to grind
Back when they were at the lake in the top right corner of the map it was good days
Ngl te has more red deer spots but you'll get bored of the scenery very quickly and it's more wooded
Dam not anymore? I was on PS4 when it first came out on PC now and was just about to buy it
red deer are still at the top right just less
No the one big lake where there were like 5 zones per map
New England is such an easy grind once you find a lot of need zones you like
Can hunt whitetail non stop
i dont really like wt tbh
I'm doing my moose grind on NEM, its hell but there's a lot of them
I'm just going for great ones. My moose need zones are the same so I grind both
I thought Yukon had a lot
i use rev
I was wrong
Yeah ive kill almost 40 level 4 moose already not one diamond yet🥶
I may have to check every need zone I have to have at least 1 on the mao
Map
I got 1 piebald and a level 4 diamond wandering on someones medved
Anyone wanna hunt with me
Are there only like 6 main quests on NEM

I absolutely hate the new spook range
I love it
@burnt tendon we still dont know if piebald teals are uncommon or rare
It could be a rare
Spook radius
This looks just like home! Really well done. Autumn forest on a cloudy-ish day. Despite the fact that it is mostly Maple trees, and not Beech trees, It looks very much like home. I stop and consider, Is this real? 😉
I don't. I can't be bothered crawling and crouch walking through the entire map just to see one animal. The game was fine before the 275M spook radius. They should've just added a "realistic" difficulty setting.
I've been running up to like 225 yds glassing, shooting the highest level and moving on. haven't really seen the issue with the spook radius yet and I got like 40ish moose yesterday. I was on Rev if that makes a difference
It’s a bit more difficult, sure, and when placing my tents and tripods for grinding I have to put more thought into my placements and I don’t always get as many males as I would like, but I am still getting decent traction regardless
I'm not really grinding, at the very least not hard (don't see the reason cause the odds are so low) but I'm making a decent amount of cash on a new account just running moose lakes I usually take one or two so I know I can keep track of them
Whats the animals in england map
I grind on Medved and run and gun on New England
As I always do when a new COTW Hunter map is released. -- Located and claimed all NewEngland Outpost utilizing the ATV.
Along the roads and paths - at the same time spotted and enabled more than 60 hotspots. Worth spending the time.
check pins
bro i just had a double heart attack
i was on nem calling in a bear, i shot it and it went aggro on me
and then while i was claiming it i hear a moose warning call, i exit out and there's a moose standing 5m from me
Dude I walked away from my game for two minutes last night to grab a drink and a capercailie jumped me, I killed it with a tenth of a bar of health
Ate least he made diamond
lmaoo
i think i've figured out the black bear aggro range, seems to be 15m exactly
i shot one at 16m and it ran, but the one i just shot was at 14.8m and charged
capercailie range is approximately three miles in my experience, angry little shits
ain't it a pain when you miss by just a fraction of an inch
fr
i've noticed on both this map and on mississippi that cottontails and turkeys always share feed zones
I really need to find these capersaurus things to play with
The capercaillies are vicious man
I get attacked by them more than I do the moose and wolves
Maybe days off will find em. Havemt really ayed much since the update as the changes ruined my mood and grind lol. Been back playing puzzle games and watching stuff instead at work lol
Lake hopping was good for work as only have laptop with the small screen and could do a cylce between work stuff lol. I prefer walk hunts at home on my ultrawide monitor as I can explore and really get immersed for hours. Played a little of NEM the other night it looked great
Thought they didn't make hard missions anymore...
100m+ bow kill disagrees, either the wind fudges it up or the foliage gets in the way ☹️
Had an interesting NEM session today. Went to a tiny pond in the higher levels, with a 9 whitetail drink zone. I set up my tripod and waited. 5-10 min before that, I had shot and killed a low level male moose at the same location. While sitting in the tripod suddenly a low level male moose charges through the trees, obviously trying to hit me, up there in the tripod, and then ran away. A few minutes later, another, much larger, male moose came charging through the trees doing the same attempt at hitting me. and he also ran away.
Maybe the one moose I hit earlier just had time to send a "HELP" text to his moose buddies before he died 😉
anyone know some good pheasant spots on nem?
ty
Tired of moose already
does less animals spawn if i have a mission going?
Missions don’t affect your animals unless their missions like the mocha moose or albino bear where they spawn that animal in at a specific location
ok thanks! becuase i have not seen an animal in forever and i have been moving around i have been getting mating and warning calls but there is no animal
i have killed like 5 animals
how do u set way point with binos?
hi
hi
NEM? This one is in New Hampshire and Maine.
Whoops, that was to you.
atleast its relatively close
i looked at the species list and took a stroll through the reserve and it reminded me of atlantic Canada
does NEM have any mission animals ?
id say no since if there was i believe someone wouldve mentioned it
||No||
dang it
As a Vermonter I am so in love with this map. I hope they add more missions in the future
anybody else having no red fox feed zone with mission "a Thousand words". walked 4 hours in this part of the map. found a gazilion need and feed zones. not 1 red fox. just red fox trails. leading to nothing
There’s a marked spot in the map that you go to
i am there and that area. no feed zone, no carcasses only two trails leading to nothing
It’s not actually a feed zone proper
have been scouting that spot over and over. but see nothing. a few turkey nests and a few trails. that's it
also found a red fox feed zone i discovered yesterday. but there are no visual clues anymore either. hmm
running an integrity check. see what happens
So i was chatting with a friend who has NEM and the was talking about the game warden,trevor locke
trevor locke as in the son of,"Hey im Colton locke but everyone just calls me Doc" ???
||Yeah, it's part of the story line. ||
||hi||
this high seat cannot be built up. the icon does not appear.
Are there only 6 main quets on NEm
this high seat is located southwest of champney ridge on the great lake
Anyone know where the Lake and mountain photo location is for the family album mission? I can't find it and the hint in the codex is lost on me.
Edit: found it.
go to the actual icon and see if that does anything (see the green icon up there?)
or maybe im wrong and the icon is right above the wood pile
I've tried everything. When I try to set up the high seat, the symbol does not appear. tried for several minutes. had no success
I can set up other high seats. there are no problems
in that case i suggest you #📜︴support
I will contact support. I have an email address
Are you from Europe by chance?
lol i found a flock of ducks flying into this rock
when i shot them the others clipped through and went under the map
Mission question: ||Is Cats and Cradles the last story mission?||
Yes
bruh i literally spent so long trying to find pheasants on nem and then i finally find one and it wont flush 😭
bro knows exactly what hes doing, look how cocky he is
Is the rangefinder bowsight currently bugged?
Was wondering why all my 100 meter bow shots had missed their intended target so went to do some testing on the hirschfelden range.
Turns out that when I rangefind at 40 meters and switch zeroing to 60 meters the bow finally lands it's mark for 100 meter shots.
If I zero on 60 meters and rangefind all my shots go somewhere but where exactly I have no clue.
might just be me but compound bows in general seem to be a bit messed up
recurve and longbow seem fine
Well the mission is completed so in the storage the bow goes untill the next patch
Does anyone have a hotspot map for Eastern Wild Turkeys?
New England
much appreciated
👍
I just saw a level 5 moose while whitetail hunting on the map I’m gonna try and go for it
I only had .270 with me but instead ima get the .338 for more penetration
And set up a stand
Please don't think I'm being mean, but unless you intend to put a child in that, it's called a hunting tower.
Best map for pheasant hunting?
Got one for wolves on Medved by chance?
Do the black bear have a rare fur type? I got a silver dusky
Cinnamon, brown, and blonde.
Ah ok
Is Hirsch a better map for pheasant than NEM?
IME, yes.
I found a level 5 warthog
A buffalo hit me as i shot
a SECOND buffalo knocked me out
my closest outpost was 1.4 miles away
That's why I only hunt from tripods on Vurhonga
It's a new account, I was was doing the missions
is there a difference between the two bobcat species in game?
only the name as far as i can tell
k thanks
dang scarecrow went from super rare to great one 💀
For herd management do you only kill the high levels?
Yes
Ok thanks
So. . . How?
It's my longest shot ever, and it's a rabbit. it was a pistol too.
Wrong class ammo ya dummy
.243 from 2-6
Foxes and such up to wildebeest and red deer
i'm more concerned about the 400 yard shot
.22 or birdshot
I’m more concerned about the medal
Then ignore it.
I’m a nerd
Sorry…….
That distance with that small of a target is impressive.
Yea….. it is
tho i'd argue that trying to nail a fox at that range is more difficult since with a fox, you'd want to get a vital. with the rabbit, you just need to hit the rabbit.
Lol fax
Guys it was a desk pop when i put my controller down
?
I put my controller down, went for a drink and came back to this lmfao
Oof
I saw hunting pressure on my map thought it was a bug went to get the need zone
and there was a rabbit in a red puddle
🤣
Auuuggghhhhh
I taxd it lol
I say getting a small duck at that distance is more different because the entire duck is roughly the same size as the lungs of the fox
it was an accident
I know it's not a trophy but it's the most impressive rabbit i've ever gotten
I have my 9.3km bunny taxed
Did you aim?
Is that dedication or insanity?
Yes
I love/ hate this I've gotten two amazing trophies in two days and they were absolute freak accidents
I did shoot a Harlequin duck with the 22 pistol at a little over 400yrds trying to top cashes lynx kill
Still one of my proudest kills
that's genuinely impressive, mine was literally a freak accident
Would had be funny if the bunny was a gold
I used up all my luck just getting a bronze lmfao
I gotta know how did you even aim for that?
It was like the bottom of the scope or some shit
I wish I could say I meant to do it
anybody get a great one moose recently besides scarecrow?
We’ve seen like 4 posted alreayd
Scarecrow got a GO?
yeah I just saw one in trophies
he got the quad palm
Did he post the video or was it a stream?
he posted a video for it
oh sweet, i'll go watch, thx
Have you guys seen a side striped jackal walking straight toward you?
It walks like a dog in a bugs bunny cartoon
a what lmao
Lmao
I had one in the scope and it was walking right toward me and i was just staring like an idiot
did u shoot it???
I did but i still think it looked weirdly . . . .floppy? i guess that's the word?
I like that my zones that have one cow are all in what would be the best areas for shooting
Lol
I'd just shoot them and look for the new zone
If I’m herd managing for moose which levels do I shoot and which do I not shoot?
its fine
but a little irritating
shoot 3 4 leave 2 1 stack 5
maybe keep big 4
(diamond potential)
A reset zone gave me that albino from the other day
Ok thank you
Anyone else having issues with the dog on this map? Like not functioningn correctly, getting stuck and won’t track anything even when commanded?
Not sure if it’s my game, or a bug
I just got attacked by THREE moose at the same time
just had to delete a zone because I was getting mugged by wolves
I heard smth about multiplayer being messed up in the new update
Now playing in other people's servers can affect your zones
Ah shit
I've been playing that all day
Good thing I took a copy of my animal saves not too long sgo
yeah def save lots of backups if on PC
Yeahs I've got one
From a few weeks ago
Just before I became inactive again luckily tho
Yeah I make a backup pretty much everyday now
Yeah
Alr just making sure I did it right when I did it
Just a suggestion but it could be useful to warn the members of the community of the mp glitch rn
Just in case you want to ask other mods and figure out if y'all wanna do that or not
Just giving the spark
@shrewd crown why you keep reacting 🤣 on every single suggestion. What’s funny?
Do raccoons have a trophy organ? And do you need to hit a vital organ for the harvest check?
I got a 5 medium infront of me and I'm not sure lol
You do have to hit a vital, but you can go for a brainshot if you want.
their trophy organ is weight
All i got on me is the Alexander longbow, wish me luck😂😂
Thanks for quick response
NP
What’s drink time for moose?
12-16
what is that multiplayer bug? i have been walking on a buddies map all night.
It removes zones and messes with the pop on your single player map
will it recover or is that map broken from that point on?
Hows the england map? I just bought it and the guy asked me to grab maple syrupt
Wheres my immersive story?
TwT
If you are just starting om NE and dog is not responding then put him in the kennel and then take him out again .... He should be working
I haven't seen any coyote in the northern half of the map yet, are they all in the south?
Iam stacking and head managing in MedVed for Moose, I currently have a diamond moose 288-333 that I will leave and have many 4s sitting around. Should i shoot the 4s or try and focus on the 2-3s so leaving 1s,4s,5s
you need to shoot the 3s and 4s leaving only 1s and 2s if herd managing
1s are quite rare, you stack 2s and 5s (and 1s but they are rare 😄 ) and shoot 3s and 4s
alright awesome man thanks for the help will do
enyone wanna ply
Anyone else get the 'checking installed content' bug?
it just take a little bit then it pops back up
Yup it fixes itself after like 20 mins though
anyone got a good spot for me to hunt white tail out of a tree stand? I'm having trouble finding spots where I can see the whole feeding/drinking zone
Along the river
middle river
the river around nem is good for moose
the new muzzie is so satisfying to shoot
especially when you get a heart shot
and that thump too
yo guys what rifle for deer and medium to large size hunting would you recommend? i have high tech hunting, weapon pack 1 and weapon pack 2 and modern
also my rifle score is 415
Zarza10 .308 would be your best bet. Remember it only goes to 8 though
Hope this isn’t the wrong channel
don't let blank see this
Congrats on getting one of the rarest animals in the game
hi, guys. Are some quests in new map broken? Bow mission were accepted, when I did them - 150m and 30m. And 2 or 3 interest point the same 😦
what was the button to change from rifle ammo to shotgun ammo
hold R
ty
i saw it already
Raccoon hunting is so good on this map!!!!
Thanks I had no idea it was this rare till after I got it
Is blank on albino quail grind or sum?
nah
I think everyone has a bobcat that should be 8-mythical in their new englands map lol
7 dumb turkeys dead… they flew right to me and sat…. Single player too
My boss legitimately got mad at me over CotW
Why? Playing at work?
No, he bought it. All of it at once. and he told me I lied about it being on sale
He didn’t check first? Lol
That’s almost 100$ bucks I think
I wanted him to buy it so he'd have something to distract him from annoying me
Instead he's whining about the game and still looking over my shoulder
Jeez
I think the spook range should be changed!! I had some red deer scare from 328yards
I had the same weird issue
Yeah I think I’m gonna take a break for awhile until they fix it. I’m really was looking forward to grinding but I can’t with the issues
Oh uh last night I took the coolest rabbit that ever existed
Intentionally changed it with this update
without mentioning it in any way
Most intelligent EW change
You mean keeping it quiet until after we bought the new map?
No I mean EW is stupid
There is definitely something up with it. I got a 53m heartshot on a female whitetail and I didn't progress in the checklist of the mission
Did they also change animal behavior after they spook? I'm not getting animals coming back to their zones after spooking once...
Mine have come back, so I don't think so? I know they just wander off to the new zone if it's late enough in the need zone time
Not in this case, it's still well within the drink zone. I spooked a herd of deer and they never came back to their zone. Followed them after a while and found they grouped up with another herd at a different lake drinking
I don't remember ever seeing that before
That may have happened to me, but my memory of it is foggy. It would have been as you described
@wintry frost if somebody tried to harm you while getting a soda at 7-11 would you go back there an hour later to fill your slurpee?
lol, it's certainly more realistic, but I'd like to know if they changed their behavior in the game
@wintry frost EW cannot tune everything in the game to accommodate people who just want to massacre thousands of animals to grind trophies. If the behavior of the animals is too predictable then it’s just a shooting gallery.
You're assuming I'd be upset about the change... I have no issues with EW's decisions to change things, but when they do, it should be laid out that something changed, even if it's not exactly how it works
I do not grind. I spot and stalk usually, generally walking or crouch walking following tracks
Animals come back after about an hour ingame still. Though they run further away now it seems so it could take longer than that
I disagree. It’s none of your business how the code works. If you know every nuance of how the code works then there’s no sense of adventure or randomness or winning and losing it’s just a system you’re manipulating
He’s not asking to know how the code works, just that EW should announce when they’ve made a change to animal behaviour, etc
Agree to disagree. I'm not expecting them to lay out exactly how things work. But if I'm buying a DLC for a game I've been playing for two years and they make changes to how the game plays, that should be informed in my opinion
I don’t think developers need to document all of their behaviors.
Thanks! I haven't had a chance to play much since the new map released, so it's good to know!
I think the happy middle here is just saying, in even a bullet point, that animal behavior is different, and then have players figure out what that is
Also, stay off of multiplayer cuz it resets your singleplayer population
Oh dang. Good to know. I never play multiplayer, personally.
This would be absolutely fine
If they don't announce it, people just assume it's another famous EW DLC-induced bug
@low citrus looks like you were right. They did come back this time, just a lot slower than I remember!
Glad I could help
Well at this point any deviation from the predictable mechanics that allow for maximum trophy grinding is seen as a “bug”. I’m not saying the game should be punishingly vague, unpredictable and random to the point where players are miserable but the pendulum has swung way to far in the direction of grinders wanting every game system fine tuned for massacring thousands of animals to grind trophies. The problem with this design philosophy is that it basically makes the game cookie clicker. I don’t think that’s what EW had in mind when they wanted to make an beautiful immersive hunting simulator-ish game
I see what you're saying, but the beauty of it is that the game can still be played as a more simulator style. But it is pretty clear that EW in and has encouraged grinding for trophies. Even the official streams for the New England map talk about how it'll be nice having so many GO species on it, specifically for the grinding. But, as I said earlier, I'm not one of those players. I play slowly and cautiously, it's just hard to have a strategy if the AI changes without warning.
Ahh yes you make a good point. Is EW suckering all of you into trophy grinding addiction and then pulling the football away like Lucy did with Charlie Brown?
Get them hooked and then make it exceedingly more difficult to achieve the reward. Very very interesting stuff
Day 2 of moose herd management. Noticing a significant amount of 2’s across my map. Also a lot of max weight estimate level 4’s. The slaughter continues
“Come at me bro”
I wish I could use the .270 for roe deer!
Hell yes
I still want the Diamond
The .270 poly tips have 35 penetration, the .243 had 30, the .270 is not a moose rifle but it could be great for for class 3-7
and if would offer a little more variety to the class hunting
Or the Lever Action
30-30 and 30-6 is where it’s at
I wanna use different rifles once in a while
I've been playing this game for 5 years I wanna use a different rifle
It’s a shame we don’t have as much variety for the lower classes
This is my point. the .270 and 6.5 would be a little more variety for class three
