is there an heat map for Fallow Deer?
Do kangaroos arrive late to drink zones?
Te awaroa
Pretty much all animals do. Some will be early and some late. Best to start an hour in
Anyone on console having the issue where the saving icon never stops blinking?
I really do hope you have a backup of your save.
because that means you got hit with the issue mentioned in that thread
DON'T CLOSE THE GAME
IF YOU CLOSE THE GAME YOU'LL LOSE EVERYTHING.... I MEAN EVERYTHING!!
I did ...
How do they get the save icon to stop blinking without corruption?
Can they switch maps to do it or will that cause it to corrupt?
Do we have estimates on saltwater croc "scale type" rarities?
I would quit to main menu, then look for a way to close the game properly (idk how that works on PS but you basically have to force close applications on Xbox).
Omg that sucks. I feel for the ps players 😦 I play on xbox aswell and hope this does not happen there...I'll be pissed..
Bro its 10 times worse for us on Xbox because its physically impossible to make backups and like I said there is no healthy way to close a game without force closing it.
There have been plenty of pissed off people on here that've left the community because of this.
I bet
tbh idk why the devs can't make save slots.
I mean they literally made saves for loadouts so "the technology exists"
They're just stubborn
I hope that with their patch comes a multiple game save slots option for all console players
lol this has been an issue for a long time.
I do have a suggestion thread in feedback for save slots
they will barely admit this is happening and then force Jaxy to sell it as nothing.
I've probly commented on that thread too
Console players should force the issue in light of this...regardless of who suggests it
Especially xbox
Console players are buying weapon packs and maps, thats the only language EW speaks.
Truth
I've bought everything they've offered personally but they have enough console fanbase to do this for us all
I remember when this issue arised (with the save corruption) and I tried to complain, people politely told me to STFU because they were busy drooling over the newest weapon pack/map/whatever they wanted next.
I have generation zero too and soon the angler
If you keep buying everything, there is no reason to hear your complaints.
I hope ew listens to all of us regardless of platform
🤷♂️
I know lol I was just hoping to show that there is real money in console platform to at least listen and be fixing this stuff
If EW was smart they'd try and cater to console players like they do PC, and expand the playerbase rather than slowly bleed them away.
Yeah true. The game works great on console and great potential is there to make good enough money
With the economy, and the war, plenty of people are stuck on last gen consoles and can't get WOTH anyway.
lots of money to earn there.
Welp they got more ps players to get woth it sounds like
I think you need PS5 or Xbox Series X/S
I'd be furious too
My save is actually bugged, and my backup saved the corrupted stuff. I'm kinda hoping that this patch will fix it, but I have a feeling imma have to start over
Weekly backups are a must
That’s tragic
I have 2 great ones bruh
Hopefully you can still recover the save after the hotfix goes live
Yeah I hope so
I haven't touched the game in awhile because I'm afraid I'll break my save more
It is, though.
I remember there was at least one hotfix, some months ago that was able to retroactively repair some of the corrupted saves under some circumstances. There is hope.
Just got 2 diamond Bantang out of the same herd 💀 okay I’ll admit they are spawning too much
They be like water buffs lol
I haven’t hunted rusa and banteng nearly enough. Mostly crocs and sambar
Bantang are my favorite species on emerald so I hunt them tones
Tons**
I just want a damn albino
If their drink zones weren’t in croc central I’d hunt them a little more
Gotta try the feed zones near the coast tho those might be pretty good
Sambar just gotta give me a max level fr
I got a troll sambar and fucked a rusa diamond so I give you my Bantang luck
(Converted it to sambar luck)
I'm still looking for my Diamond Sambar
where u hunting fallow?
it says in the screencap
Does anyone here share a Discord server with Initial?
The bot banned him. I unbanned, but can't send him an invite as we don't share a server.
a mythical kangaroo hopped over to me...stopped 5 feet away and stood up as straight as it could and then hopped away...I didn't react fast enough for a picture but it happened
Thank you
Anyone here in that server?
If you are, could you please send him an invite to here
me, I can send him invite
cheers
back to the goose grind 😭
Thanks for your help. He's back in here now
any time!
Maybe 10kills of crocs and this shows up. I waited for a very long time and finally tried the frontal/quartering shot. Bad idea I guess or maybe just not used to the vitals on them yet. I have now visited most zones and can’t seem to find the new spawn
Damn bro that would be insane harvest, well next time buddy, try to hunt legendary roos, idk about you im getting lucky to find mythical and legendary roos
Not many Roos yet but I did get my 15th diamond today and 1st on this new map the Banteng. Crocs have been put on hold for a while I think. Good money in the crocs on the coast
After the in saltie territory are the missions done?
i just had two Bantengs that where so close to Diamond ahhhhh
Or they just Diamond without max Level
Plenty of animals in the game can make diamond sub-max level
Especially animals that max at lvl 3 or 5
the highest of the two was 126
😉
Te Awaroa haha i can see why you asked the question looks like posted in wrong chat - sorry
hi i just got the game today and i got a dlc pack and when i go in the game it still telling me to buy the dlc which i already have
Make sure u have restarted your game since you have brought the dlcs
yeah i did i even uninstalled it and downloaded it again
@quaint mesa
i have no idea what to do
Idk
apex account?
do u think its because of that?
not sure just asked if you have 1, if not that could be
nahh i do
Go to your main library page and please click on the game
And then click dlc's
@limber cliff
And tell me if any of them have the little blue flag that let's you know its already in your library
@vale grotto
I meant like a new ss, as that's the same one as before.
Since you closed and rebooted and all that
Or maybe click view more in store
Also, do you have the "thanks for your purchase" email, from steam?
yes i do
i got the master pack
Okay okay. So.. have you booted up the game
yea im on it rn
no idea how
Go to the nearest outpost
then go to the cache and go to kennel and buy one
And go to the storage (backpack icon once outpost is unlocked)
where is the outpost?
And then on the left side should be Kennel - you can click it and create a dog (don't rush this it's almost 50k to buy a new one. Dogs don't get resets)
Mmm.. send ss of map
I'll tell you
okay thank u
you're welcome!
this section here -
when you are in the shop/storage part of your outposts (usually a locker on the inside/outside of the cabin area) will have a kennel option
you can buy the dog there, picks its color and name it
if you cannot do this, then something screwy happened
if you can, I would just assume theres a visual glitch because you can obviously use the DLC
ohh okay im almost there
it worked ! thank you!
is it the same with the 4x4 also?
yup!
alright thank you so much!
you're welcome~
its fine
just got a light brown croc and there absolutly amazing looking
Can u send pic i forgot how they look like

Have you verified your game files?

ok
Try running the game again
it jsut freezes and i tab out and in then it starts for a second then freezes
tf now its working
its a clip of what happening
it freezes after every action
@limber cliff
ima try shut down my pc real quick
Good luck with the reboot - however, I'm gonna request that you find a way to upload the clips without making them a download file
yes sorry
while I appreciate that you probably just made it, it's just for overall safety for everyone on server.
Not insinuating that you are making anything unsafe - but you know how I mean.
Yay!!
😄
maybe its cus my power went out and it closed strangely
@finite wagon where my inv
Oh maybe?

lmao
help
** helps **
There is a diamond red deer and a diamond roo on my map SOMRWHERE
And i am determined to find them
Did find a piebald female red deer tho
All of these were initial spawns EC crazy
I am going to relentlessly hunt these things like a wolf
HACKS
What is it with drinking zones and only 1 fallow deer showing up over the whole time span 🫠
Some zones only have 1
Oh. Ok thanks, thought it was a bug 😅
Good luck
Did you at least get their zones?
Yea
I think the red stag is diamond anyway ik hes lvl 9
Not so confident with this roo tho
Did anyone find a good magpie goose location?
They fly above the mangrove swamps. Position your decoys just outside of them and hopefully the crocs won’t be scaring them off
that email popup
Ionno what you mean
Thanks
C H O M P
Do you actually mean that btw or do u want me to explain
I keep finding glitched crocs that just stand there so I'm just taking screenshots
Dome him
now the fire and the waves of the waters move in the direction of the wind
is WIMDY
what are some good spots to hunt in emerald coast? Any places which have large concentrations of specific animals? i really want to find EC trophies
Can't believe I got a second banteng to hit diamond at difficulty 4
mangroves for crocs and magpies
whole map for stubbles
stubble quail r so annoying
Guys, are black/melanisric sambar rare?
Yes
like an all black fur coat
probably, i think all melanistic animals are rare
the fur type says melanistic?
i haven’t shot it yet, i’ve just seen it
oh
well if its mela its rare, if it says black, its probably not. However I cant even play this game right now so someone may correct me
Do you have anything In mind something specific you want to hunt?
Crocs and banteng are very common around the coast
Magpies are all over the mangroves
Roos and feral goats are common in the outback part of the map during their feed times
And quail are everywhere
Almost all of my sambar and hog deer harvest screens have a "are we really doing this, right now?" look and it kills me
anyone have a list of all side missions for emerald?
what does grounded trophy rating mean on quails?
You have to shoot them in the air
oh
Same thing with peasants, bobwhite quail and both ptarmigan species
thats gonna make things difficult 😅
Are mixed feral goats rare
Yes
are dogs worth getting
👍
while in the content creator weekend i was playing near the crocs. then i minimized to answer a message
then imagine minimizing back up with my face next to a open wide mouth of a croc. haha made me jump.
Jumpscares be happening in all aspects of the game lmao
do anyone know the text the australian narrator says when you find axis deer the first time?
Uhhh I do not, I am sorry
I hate this restore and save data
is it normal for the sanctuary to have animals that are max score
Sanctuary animals are completely randomized.
what
so yeah, normal
im guessing you cant shoot them
i want to kill the deer
ive shot around 170 diamond red deer and i want this one specifically
So what animal populations were reset
Red, Fallow, the Feral Goats and some others
Springbok, European Bison, Plains Bison, Alligators, Mexican Bobcat & Fallow Deer. **
So, I have a really strange question because I have no idea on why this is happening and I have no asnwer for this lol so here it goes: Have they changed anything on the maps when you load them for the first time (like when you restart your game to lv1 again) so that they have at least 1 diamond for each specie? This is like my forth time restarting my save and everytime I do 100% exploration/main mission on every map and I ALWAYS get 1-3 diamonds max each. But Emerald Coast gave me 7 diamonds so far and I just finished unlocking the last outpost lol
Am I so damn lucky? Because I'm not grinding anything, just exploring.
Sounds like some really nice initial spawns to me 🙂
Red Deer were too I thought for the fur update
They found it was not required
Also thought that since feral goat got Trurack they were reset
Ah
goats got a remodel
The Outback Update is out now and free for all theHunter: Call of the Wild players. Read the full list of new content, improvements, and fixes here.
Ah
Feral goats always had truracs
same,i hunted them when australia come out,but now i am on fallow
and i think i will go for some puma or mountain lion,did not hunt them for over 1 year alr
my last puma is from january 2022
dark brown crocs are rare right?
No light brown is
i see far more light brown than dark brown tho?
Are you sure?
yea
like i just killed the 2nd dark brown ive ever seen in a week
and i probs see 4 light brown crocs per run
maybe im getting it mixed up tho
Proof?
See
Light brown is rare. Dark brown is uncommon
i must be getting it mixed up then mb
what is this
COTW companion
It's the companion app
Note: that app is in no way official.
I see
Does anyone know what is big for bantang?
I'd say anything above 144 is massive
Alright thanks
@tacit hamlet Yeah so I lied. My buddy alonzo didn't shoot a 147 banteng
Did you actually lie or did you make a mistake?
Cause I understand if you just made a mistake
Nope. I lied. I was straight up bored as hell and wanted to scheme. Then I forgot about it because I was no longer bored
Hope you didn't lose sleep over it : )
My biggest so far is 139
Sorry thats my sambar, biggest banteng is 135

Big is relative. A pro player will probably thinks big = diamond. But a casual player like me thinks big= gold. My advice is to compare your trophies to your previous trophies.
Dont hunt for something big, just hunt for something bigger than what you have.
Anyone else having this problem?
Because u put it somewhere, game asks u if u want to buy another or not
To fix it, remove tripod from the inventory and save it
Even when it’s not in the inventory it’s coming up
Just press Ok on the second confirmation box
Is the hunter 7 feet tall confirmed?
I also hate the new red deer skin it looks uncanny
can i join somebody to go croc hunting?
thx
anyone got a pic of a piebald magpie goose
i need a pic for a mission so ik what it look lkke
also did anyone have a pic of a sanctuary Great one?
What is a good gun for crocs?
It looks real…
Few more
if you have the .308 its great for crocs
7mm and .44 panther are great as well
yeah
.44 panther is becoming one of my favorite guns because I tried it out against crocs.
That’s true
i could watch these kangoros the whole day
What is the best spot to find rares on the map, mainly rusa deer
Rares are RNG. You could get one as an initial spawn or you could take 8k kills to see one.
It's just a chance spawn on a roulette wheel
Best place to find them would he where the rusa live
Just started so i dont have that much money but right now im using the 270 then imma get that
Is it just me or does emerald coast remind you if parque?
the .308 is a dlc gun but go for the 300 or 338
Anyone here wants to place me some tents on emerald?
Is the .44 panther dlc?
Does anyone know if the EC Landmarks mission is bugged? I got the last one, finished the mission, but now it says I still have that last one to do and the mission isn't completed anymore.
it's just the name of the .44 magnum
Sorry for the beginner question, but what is a "Great One"?
really rare and fancy version of some animals
Rare lvl 10 animals so far are only (whitetail deer fallow deer red deer black bears and moose)
They look amazing
Actually "just" a non-typical animal. Special fur or antlers
An incredibly rare spawn characterized by higher than normal weight, large, often non-typical antlers for the deer species, unique fur types and a level of 10 - Fabled
Here’s a great one moose compared to a diamond
The only animals that have great ones are whitetail, red deer, black bear, moose and fallow
Oh, ok, Thanks!! 😄
Remember that the whitetail deer does t have a special fur and the red deer has only one type of fur
Well.
The whitetail can have a special fur, but gods bless you if you can find the damn thing
Me watching everyone get trolls with my diamond kangaroo and saltie
I have 2 diamond crocs, 1 diamond banteng and 1 diamond kangaroo thus far
PIEBALD RED FOX TRACK
WOOOOH
Found him but I misfired and spooked him off
what level is he?
Is there even anyone that got one without the glitch back then?
Damn
LC got a beeno. A couple of hard grinders found the pied ones
Got his ass
wait sorry for the dumb question but whats a beeno?
Albino
albino
SO far and few between
wait so there hasnt been a melanistic GO?
Supposedly one was gotten and posted on Reddit but it’s dubious
It's reddit after all
But imo the melanistic would look the coolest
If only my patience wouldnt drop after not finding anything for 10 minutes so I could maybe find a GO too
Ah screw it. Ima do the missions for once
Not yet but I mean, with Beeno and Pied.. Stands to reason!
Man crocodiles feel kinda easy to hunt.
So i got an issue
todays stream, jaxy explained that the rifles are staying broken intentionally for inventory management reasons
feels like "Its busted on purpose so you have to carry more stuff and we don't have to put thought into how much a thing weighs"
How are they broken?
Hard balanced to favor DLC weapons, particularly the new ones
Legitimately, the way he explained it made me sad i bought everything but the dog dlc
I mean it's hard to do that since the base game weapons are what they are
Like you can't logically make a 308 or a 30-06 less powerful than a 270
Huh? I did what???
I would not say they are “broken” but they are not necessarily a replica of their IRL counterparts in terms of ballistics
Hi, Beard 👋
Yes exactly. As I often say we have our own ballistics in game for game balancing reasons. It doesn't match up to irl just modeled off it
Hiyo
I don’t mean to interrupt the topic, but did you happen to see my DM to you, Jaxy?
I don't believe I did...
If it was over the weekend that would be why as I was out of town...and then it will get buried lol sorry
s'like yer popular or something
I don't expect it to be stronger, just be competitive.
Feels absolutely ridiculous to have to carry 3 different guns or more to cover a hunt
I put a post up in suggestions for weight balance but idk
Yeah I carry 7mm 243/22-250 22lr and 12ga pump
Which if I wanted I would need to carry 5 if I used anything different from the 7mm
I carry the 7mm/12gaO/U and .243 pistol, which feels ok
but no other rifle can do that
I'd like to have the option to take the .270 knowing it can drop a roe deer or bring down a moose in a couple of minutes
Rebalancing can always be applied I think
Hey All, got a quick question. I hopped on emerald coast yesterday and killed a Pieblad Javan Rusa I taxidermized it as any sane person would xD but when placing it in my lodge its "glitched" and just seems to be a normal brown Javan Rusa is this a known glitch or did i just get unlucky?
I'd like to see weights redone, rifles rebalanced to be more realistic so there's a reason for them. The lever actions are just not worth getting, range restrictions and poor penetration make them obsolete to start with which feels really bad because it's the only thing I've ever hunted with. literally, hogs and deer to black bear, never needed more than one shot and up to 250 yards with my .30-30
If it’s not known, I would definitely report it
Thanks will Definitely do so
Skinwalker on halloween when? 👻
hopefully this October
oh
I really want the steam achievements
Somebody got locations for saltwater crocs
The entire coastline and everything mangroves
The coast and mangrove swamps
What should i buy first if i just brought the game in terms of weapon
Well I can recommend about 5 DLCs on that lol
I brought every dlc
OH
W
Will save some money and go for one of them
oh lol
Ammo is 700-1k for box of 10
But if you get one kill per bullet that 8-12k in money back
Ok...what gives lol...I've spent hours all over Kookaburra Crescent and haven't heard one damned Kookaburra!! Lol I was hoping we'd get some jungle laughing in here haha.
There is a saying “ while looking for diamonds they cease to exist but when you’re off exploring, they appear “
Welp
i just missed a shot on a diamond magpie goose and spooked it
wouldve been my first diamond
Multiplayer or your own map?
my own map
is there a better rifle to be using for birds besides the .22? i hate that it only zones to 150m
IT DIED
im runnign to it now
mustve bled out
level 4? i thought they onnly go to 4
Yeah it was a normal bird lol
the site im using then is wrong
What site?
its a steam thread and ive just now realised it says they only go to 3, so im an idiot lol
do u know a better site i can use?
got this beauty earlier on emerald went to hunt sambar and saw him walking near me
anyone wann a do some croc hunting
Subreddit has a fact sheet
imma just dowloand that
For all you new players there’s one of these for every map
dam this game more complex than i first thought
Mhm
ahahaha, im not a hunter real life, not even my type of thing but for some reason im in love w this game
same
Hey man I’m the same way
And im nearing 500 hours
Everybody’s welcome
so many bantang wasnt able to get them tho server was shuttng downlol
I'm good at getting around just not killing anything
Servers don’t shut down?
ahahaha thats why i love EC
You can get kicked or disconnect but servers don’t shut down
mb i mean host left
im late gane ish already, croc farming is such an easy money farm
the second u get that .308 its easy money
If the host leaves, you are the new host and you can hunt their map
unless u dotn have the map of course then u only have 15 minutes
ik i dont have the dlc so thats why
ahhhh i see
im grinding for 308 rn
bantang and cros are such easy money
yknow whats sad, 6 people have found diamonds on my map, ive not found one
crocs are easier though fr
im in the same boat as u
i have 93k so ive got all the money ill need, got all the guns i need, now its just getting good kills
Okay gang
Let me let you in on a little secret
Don’t host your own maps
All maps spawn with good stuff on them
If you go online max levels will steal them
i only can join multi
I was talking in general
but stingray if you have it lemme know and we can grind
could u not just stay away from them
im on xbox
Wdym?
oh alr
the high levels
Play single player if you don’t want your trophies taken
i had a diamond croc robbed from me cause i stupidly daid i found one and got kicked
lesson learnt tho
more'll spawn tho so i dont really mind
how many people use bows i feel most use rifles
I always have a bow
Somewhere in my loadout
fair
.22lr and m1 are constant players
But almost universally my minimum carry layout is the. 22lr, m1, bow with 300/400 range grain and 600 range grain for smaller and big boi game
I'm trying out the .243 to see how I like it, and will be trying the .223 afterwards
nice
Proud of you
Just be careful on multiplayer pc lots of hackers
TINY croc
I sis kebabed this one! my best instakill so far with an arrow 85m+
holly shit,700g no?
got a 1 on my map,still there,nice trophy to have
omg i just killed a melanistic croc and a leucistic javen rusa within 5 minutes of each other
Cotw have a nice community

How come emus aren’t in emerald cost
U dont know how strong emus are, i mean they can survive 2 gunshots, they are fast
class 9 tank bird
Yea
I know how strong emus are my dad tells me they can tank bullets but it would’ve been cool to see them 😔
I mean they did have a war with them
Yea it whould be nice to see them but imagine an army of emus going towards u at insane speed and just killing u
They whould prob be the hardest animals to kill
On the emerald coast
I mean they didnt even put the real size of the saltwater crocs, i mean like these are the regular sizes, but a 1,200kg one whould be over 20ft tall
I reckon it’d be a nice addition around where you’d hunt roos and have emus around cause when I hunt roos in real life a mob of emus runs by them and spooks them
LoLong was the saltwater croc in Malaysia that was a human eater and he weighted a ton and was a bit over 20ft
So imagine a 1200kg one how tall whould he be
They say lolong had an older brother who was 29ft long
But wasn’t Gustavo bigger then lolong
No real ones
No he wasnt
Gustave was 20ft
And he was a nile crocodile
Lolong was 6.17m and he was measured while gustave was never measured but was about 6m
Lolong is bigger by 3 inches according to google
That is still unknown
They never captured gustave
He could still be alive
Since his size was of 100 year old croc
But he is in his 60
So that means that he is still growing
Gustave is most dangerous though has like 300+ kills
200*
That was according to villagers. Number of deaths is unknown but it is high
Still quite a lot
I’m off to bed it 1:30 and I’ve been on it all day trying for a fallow fabled
Can my dog eat the observable universe ?
yus
The 4th was fun went out on the lake because Nevada is inland unfortunately
Anyone got bantang tips
Shoot all your crocs along the coast and don’t claim them so banteng don’t get spooked

Ok
What if it’s rare though or a diamond potential
Shit now what do I do I’m stuck grind saltys or bantang
Grind both!
Finally found my first great one. Unfortunately he's in my sanctuary 😅
This is awesome!!!! Congratulations!
thanks!
for a hunting game you can see here quite the variety of people
not like some media try to portrait hunters tho, at least in my country
You might be the only person ever to get a GO in sanctuary lol 😂
don't know if I should laugh or cry 😂
I know right, it could've spawned anywhere else on the map, but chose to do it there lol
And they change every time, so if you close the game and re open, he won't be there anymore
to be fair though my luck was already pretty good that run, so I shouldn't be too upset. I bagged myself my first melanistic (banteng) and my first diamond Fallow. Although he felt pretty small after seeing the GO
That sucks, I wanted to go chill with him a bit and get some better pics
Yooo Pet GO!
This is like the 5th one or so 😂 I love it.
Someone got a RD and otherwise its just been Fallows
YES, I watched the video, and as I said before, love your content, really gives of nostalgic vibes from the old days of cotw back in 2018-19 when Fooster was making vids
Oh wow, rly? I haven't seen any lol
Its amazing lmao
I love it and feel awful for the folks
Personally I would do everything I could to break in and get the GOOD photos
I'm never going back to my sanctuary... If I don't see him, he never spawned lol
😂
Thats big fair
I dont think its a static population though
I think the Sanctuary Gang rotates out every so often
what I do wonder, though.. Is do the sanctuary animals come from your direct map population or are they on their own rotation?
So like.. GO in the Petting Zoo, is that YOUR GO or is it a nonexistant animal?
I tried so hard to jump to the fence 😅
from what people in my discord have been saying, I think it's random
Folks have managed it. Somehow.
I suspect that it's like escaping the Safari lodge
you need to find ways to 'slip' over the fence
ahh gotcha
now I really wish I had tried harder, would have made a great short
I mean, you could always go see if he is still there... :p
Rooster are you gonna do a trophy lodge tour anytime soon? You've been getting some cool trophies lately
Yup! maybe I'll do a short mini stream about it sometime next week
Lessgoo!!
Is emerald coast a good choice for someone who Hunt's big game ? 6+
Anyone else have this problem also got a decent red deer
(Not mine)
finally got a diamond croc nearly died claiming it tho
it's like 50% rack ☝️ 😂
how i get a sanctuary?
Oof that stings
Usually it's at a fast travel point idk which one it is though
There should be a sanctuary full of fallow roos Crocs and red deer there
anyone know how to see underwater for croc farming
It's the Opal Point Sanctuary outpost, near the very top middle right of the map
does anyone
I'm on PC, so I can only manage underwater for half a second in very specific locations. But all I did was prone crawl to the edge and start crawling by millimeters once I was close to the drop off.
Haven't really needed it though, there's usually plenty on the beach if I haven't hit it recently
Yeah I know how to
But I don’t use it
I can show u the vid I found on Reddit
alr
What class would be a 375 Magnum if added ?
Why so many deer and so little Kangaroo? I've heard a lot of complaints about this 😂 Is it going to be patched maybe?
It's not game-breaking or anything, but it just seems weird to me.
There are plenty of roos. Are you not finding many?
I've not played it yet so I can't say how accurate it is, but I see a lot of reviews saying Kangaroos are WAY too sparse, compared to reality. Living here, they're quite common so I'm not too sure if it's just people making a fuss or if there really is a shortage of kangaroos. I have watched someone play it but they only found one.
Thoughts?
They are not sparse at all. Where you first spawn in when you start the map, that area and the bottom left corner and across the lower part of the map has plenty. You should check out Ron Mctube's YT video. Plenty of roo hunting tips there.
That's a relief, haha. Thanks! I'll defnitely check them out.
Happy hunting. It's a great map
There’s a ton down in the bottom left as well as along both rivers
Someone recently invited me to their map on EC and I can definitely say I found 8 of them within 10 minutes of gametime. 2 of with tried to fight me.
Ah, cool! Thanks :)
Roo are hella ez to hunt
Just the same place u spawn look around and you will find them
This rare?
Yes
gg,i have a pink diamond from EC
Walk up the coast time Pog
Yup
I gotta check the mangroves periodically just to make sure no rares spawn there
God it’s like a repeat of the fallow grind
Only rare croc I have is a melanistic, silver I think
My friend got a diamond albino his first run up the coast
can you not kill something if it's in a sanctuary??
anyone know what the update on console is for
i think i found maybe an albino roo
it was this pretty bright roo
had a bit of a golden color to her?
Leucistic maybe
Ayyyyyy
Actually one of the prettiest albinos in the game tbh
Yet another female rare- why are all my rares females
Kappa
Oh yea and a piebald red deer doe
And now an albino roo
Tf is going on
(I still havent shot the lvl 9s i still have to find em)
I JUST FOUND A 5 SAMBAR
😂
You have to be kidding me
Waht rhe FUCK is this map bro
A literal emerald coast (full of rares)
Isn’t it possible that EW pumps up the populations and GO/rare drop rates in newly released maps ?
Damn i thought i could get a heartshot on him
Didnt happen
Oh my god it killed him
NOO I THINK I FUCKED UP
I mean sure it's possible, but lots of folks arent grinding Fallow on EC, from what I've seen majority are running on TA
In so far as GO, at least.
I cant attest to rares and dimes, but I think its due, largely in part, to the fact that so many people are so gung ho hype about it
that they've been nose to the grindstone with the map, so we are seeing the benefit of so many just blowing the map up
still taixdermying it idc
Shoudnt have risked a heart shot...
Oh well shit happens its fine
look at his small rack
Whats next, i mess up a super rare croc?
The important thing is how he can use it
Now question what is worse
-troll
Or
-broken diamond/G1
I remember early on when Layton lake was the popular map it was like deer crisscrossing the map everywhere you walked lol 😂
we boutta cook some banteng burger
I’ve had that happen with gators 4 times now in the same general area on the map. Got my first ever Legendary with it lol
I can't believe this at night too
i finally spotted my first legendary roo at night looking for red foxes
need to find where he lives
I've been trolled 3 times already by the roos
What’s a legendary?
the name associated with level 9 animals
1 - trivial
2 - minor
3 - very easy
4 - easy
5 - medium
6 - hard
7 - very hard
8- mythical
9 - legendary
10 - fabled (only on specific animals)
yes
Thanks!
np
Just saw a magpie goose fly into one of those wooden map structures and get stuck, then disappear a couple seconds after
well well well
Tf dose trivial mean ☠️
Means it's easy to hunt
Definition of trivial in a nutshell is “without effort”
Oh
So Im doing the missions for EC, and for some reason when i get to the 'Saltie Problem' it doesn't start the next mission
no sadly
Don’t remember if I posted this one
This one burns a little. First few kills of crocs and I mess up a shot on a diamond 1060 and now 300 kills later I’m still getting trolls. I wonder if it has to do with the times I’m running the coast. The first diamond I messed up was between the 16:00-20:00 zone. I have been running it from 12-15:00 since then. Would that first respawn be going to the later rest zone?
had the same happen too
man that sucks, i didn’t even know it existed, i’ll go check mine out today and see if i have anything in there
Well, if anyone wants to know for building handgun skill, 454 hollowpoints can hit banteng lung at up to 230 yards (longest shot so far on one), and can heart shot a slightly at an angle banteng looking at you.
Somehow even a frontal angle will get you lung with the hollowpoints
what rifle should I buy , have a score of 3k so cant get the .300 yet . Have 27k saved
Idealy for crocs to build up cash
Wait crocs have fur?
yes
Who knew lmao
My personal opinion is something simple like .30-06 with polymer or .338 polymer
just play the missions and you'll end up in it eventually
thoughts on emerald coast? I'm thinking about buying the dlc
Where do feral pigs drink on EC?
Nice troll
this is p[ossible?
I've had bush turkeys come into the house through my backdoor if I've left it open so, game mimicking real life?
Though never seen a stubble quail do it
if it makes u feel any better im 500+ crocs in and i havent seen a single diamond
The roos are spooky. They will flee at the slightest noise or sniff or glimpse. You have to stalk them or you won't see them before they flee.
Dang... I LOVE the crocodiles. The way they are jaws open trying to find you after you shoot at them is awesome and terrifying D:
Anyone know how to disable the visual quests on the huntermate.
Its driving me mad and making tracking really annoying.
Ive heard that new zealand
been on emeral all day today i found warringa pass where the lake is, is pretty good. if thats what your looking for.
Thats Australia
Croc-hunting at night is scary as heck.
Got him! Thanks to doggo alerting when he came close.
best time to hunt salties?
Imo 12-4 as there will be more up on the beach resting
Never going to recover from this :')
Good thing I know I'm not the only one
is hunting pressure applied where the shot was fired, or where the animal drops?
radius around where the animal was first shot
at the point of the animal, NOT at the point of the shooter
ok...so that makes me wonder.... how would other animals know that? like..they would know where an animal actually died.... but not neccesarily where it was hit,
I cant come to terms with what the bullets are doing on aurora... they most certainly arent behaving like the do on other maps.
As much as we want things to make sense.... little times they often do in games. 😂
Would be more interesting if it did apply it where they died.
at least you could find em... lol
When I shoot an animal I set my ping right in the center of the hunting pressure. This marks where the animal was first shot.
I'm able to find the blood trail starts there most times.
Helps me find almost all my kills
Consider it like.. You shoot at an animal with others nearby - they would be aware of the sound and its relative location
Animals graze right next to the bodies of their brethren
but ALL animals have that hunting pressure....no matter how far away they were. if the pressure was where the animal died, it would be a lot more viabl...death is pungent.
death is not immediately pungent, unless gutshot tbh. That said, it's a game, not a 1:1 IRL simulation
true....so why arent theyputting the pressure where the animal dies so we can actually find it again?
if they are gonna let a kangaroo thats been shot with a 30-06 a) stay in one piece, and b) hop away, at least let us find it again. a 30-06 hit on a roo ANYWHERE is not a pretty sight
Then what would be the point of tracking, blood trails, or the fun of searching for your kill. That's literally what hunting is all about.
We would just be able to find the animal without any challenge
first you gotta find it to shoot it.
Ik but real hunting in life you don't know where the animal dies
They want to make the game as realistic as possible
Lol
Irl the blood doesn’t pool it leaves a trail not pools of blood
There’s also more requirements like using black powder or gun powder rifles depending on where you are
You have the option to turn it off if you want to.
I think roo's, just due to their squishiness need to be lower in class. if you shot a roo with a 30-06 you would be picking bits of it off the trees 20 yards behind it
shoot a roo witha 222..it dies...shoot it with a 270 and (very) large chunks of it detach themselves. shoot it with a 30-06 and you are wondering where it went
good lord... "clean up on aisle 6....bring a mop"
dont bother mopping
as an example of jsut how squishy a roo is with those larger, fast bullets....I head shot one with a 270 at 800m and basically there was no head to speak of left. Even at short range, 80 yards with the same 270, hit him in the shoulder and everything from his spine to his sternum was removed by the exit wound..I mean..he was blown to bits. they are too high class in this game
just hose the ground
There are some bullets that travel so fast that you don't even have to hit your target.... the force behind it is enough to kill....
it hasta hit something..... just not neccesarily the target..something relatively close by. like a 50 cal sniper round into a cinder block wall will kill everything within 10 yards of where it hit
a US sniper actually did that in iraq. couldnt see the 3 guys so just took a guess and shot the wall they were behind
it turned all 3 of them to pulp
I watched a few gun camera videos from apaches too. that minigun is jsut nasty. hit within 10 feet of the guy and he is done
Lets bring it back around to EC related content - not the possibility of 50c dmg
ok..can we have roos as...class...3?
Sure yeah, go convince the Devs lmao
what class does 270 cover? 4-6?
they needa be in a class thats 222 capable but not, say, an M1
clean up on aisle 6, bring a pressure washer
I have shot hundreds of roos....and the only muscle they have is their thighs and tails...they are very squishy
and if you shoot a roo in the thigh with a 222 you break their femur....which is very ugly
What’s the difference between hacks and mods ?
In this game’s context they’re the same thing
But, in a more broad aspect, mods for a game are content developed by players/community members that add extra things to do, unlock, explore, etc (think mods for Minecraft)
Hacks are third party tools that let you bypass having to unlock/earn something. Whether it be currency, items or, in COTW’s case, straight up spawning in trophy animals by the hundreds
So making my dog into a ford f150 is still considered hacking ?
that would be a mod...maybe
COTW’s “mods” also heavily fuck with the code making your game unstable and prone to crashing and data corruption
Damn it so I can’t make bigger coyotes
That would be hacking
Because you’re making your targets bigger and therefore easier to hit whilst everyone else has to deal with smaller targets
Therefore, unfair advantage
Oh yea I forgot about that
Wha happened to this chat
What you mean?
Everyone just dead silent
Let's change it
