[obtuse vapor]

Cool thank you

[west wadi]

Western Ghats/Himalayas with markhor, Marco Polo sheep, and ibex

Mongolia

A tropical South American map, but most people just say “Amazon”

[stable parcel]

texas

[waxen sparrow]

Id love a "remastered" timbergold trails

[stable parcel]

thats what i want

[plain vigil]

northern canada, amazona , africa 2.0 , east asia , east europa

[stable parcel]

revontuli is east europe and northern canada is arctic

[plain vigil]

i mean romania

there

revontuli is north europe

[stable parcel]

oh nvm then

[midnight moon]

revs is finland

eastern europe could be a carpathian reserve based on poland slovakia and romania

[midnight moon]

i reckon they could base it off peru and have mountains on one side leading into a jungle amazon style rainforest

[plain vigil]

thats what i think where new maps are gonna be

[midnight moon]

so northern south america, arctic, eastern europe, new africa and smth like mongolia or japan

[plain vigil]

and there could be maps between the areas

[midnight moon]

https://discord.com/channels/393040947006406657/1246504999559630969 i think this is a decent idea for a map covering a range of biomes in the arctic area

[plain vigil]

like south south amerika coulb be than an england/ireland some indoniesia

could come after that

[humble tinsel]

No Greenland?

[plain vigil]

but where the red circle are are problay the most accruta

northern canada wopuld have more animals and similar

[midnight moon]

uk reserve would be a waste imo with so many better regions not yet represented

[plain vigil]

like polar bear walross and so would also be in canada

[midnight moon]

seals wolverines lynxes etc

[plain vigil]

seals could work like crocodiles

[midnight moon]

as far as im aware, polar bears wait for the ocean to freeze over and then they go out looking for seals

[plain vigil]

there are even more polar bears in canada then greenland

[midnight moon]

this could be used to link different biomes and have eurasian lynxes and american martens on the same map

[plain vigil]

then there could be the grolar great one

[midnight moon]

that would be sick

[plain vigil]

mix from polar bear and grizzly

could be also a superrare

super rare would be better i think

[midnight moon]

yeah

phil can u have a look at my arctic reserve idea cuz i think it would be a decent way of having a wide variety of animals on one arctic map

[mortal cosmos]

This many?

[midnight moon]

they said the game has years of life left

[mortal cosmos]

yeah but they are also reducing the rate at maps are coming out

[plain vigil]

every year one

[mortal cosmos]

(which I like if it brings maps like EC and what sundarpatan is looking like)

[plain vigil]

or maybe then 1.5

but like thats the maps that are "missing"

[mortal cosmos]

which your suggestion would be 5 more years of maps

[midnight moon]

theres like 3 to 7 years left with this game

[mortal cosmos]

and I would have thought they'd want to move to a new engine by then with way of the hunter

[midnight moon]

i reckon theyll do arctic, south america and a few others and then africa 2.0 to finish with a bang

[mortal cosmos]

I could see three more maps each takinga year

[analog sorrel]

72hrs n we should know release date

[mortal cosmos]

Artic and africa 2.0 being 2 of them

[west wadi]

They’ve got plenty of map ideas worth selling

Really it depends on what people are buying, which I am very curious about

[plain vigil]

i think these 5 are good addition to the game

[midnight moon]

yes i agree

[mortal cosmos]

yeah but at which point do you stick them on a new game and new engine?

[analog sorrel]

think they already said they not doing africa 2.0

[midnight moon]

those 5 regions are missing

[plain vigil]

like look at the regions in real life

[west wadi]

Exactly

[mortal cosmos]

No they didnt

they said if they did do it it would be the last

[plain vigil]

so many geographic landscapes / areas

[midnight moon]

africa 2.0 seems to be smth they want to finish on

[mortal cosmos]

Im pretty sure

[plain vigil]

each different from the other

google these areas

[mortal cosmos]

Which is why I only see a few more like 3 coming at a rate of 1 a year, then they hit the new game and new engine. sell the maps there

[finite wagon]

Me personally, all of them

[west wadi]

They also said in the past they had no intention of endangered species

[midnight moon]

the people saying they should do an amazon map fail to account for the fact the amazon rainforest is just 1 landscape, they should do it on peru instead with the andes AND amazon

[finite wagon]

I could do without NEM but

[mortal cosmos]

I know there's plenty of variety, my main concern is time

[plain vigil]

only time tells

we will now evantually

[west wadi]

That’s why I say “Amazon” in quotes. There’s so many ecosystems in South America

[finite wagon]

NEM is pretty so 🤷‍♂️

[plain vigil]

we dont know how the world changes and stuff

we can only wait

[west wadi]

Wetlands, jungles, floodplains, vast pampas grasslands, mountain cloud forests

[mortal cosmos]

Personally Artic and Africa 2.0 I would love to see. Would love to hunt the big 5

[midnight moon]

peru map would go hard

[mortal cosmos]

NEM looks very pretty and I enjoy it, there's just better maps

[west wadi]

I’d love Andean bear

[plain vigil]

i think they wouldnt only do amazon but like the stripe from left to rigth in one map

[mortal cosmos]

I dont think its bad or even meh, I think it's good, just not as good as some of the others

[midnight moon]

ill draw up an amazon map concept mainly focusing on the biomes and not the animals

[west wadi]

That’s good

The Amazon has spectacular biodiversity

[plain vigil]

if you have time you could do all red circles

[midnight moon]

that my plan, ive done arctic now im doing amazon and any suggestions would be great

[plain vigil]

the ones i circled?

[midnight moon]

no like suggestions for a south american map

im doing all the ones u circled

[plain vigil]

ah

[candid cliff]

Most countries that contain the Amazon ban sport hunting, only allowing natives to hunt

[plain vigil]

try do make ecuador, peru, brasil

[midnight moon]

i think we're past the legalities with tigers and snow leopards

[plain vigil]

so water at left then mountains and after that jungle

[midnight moon]

we can let our imaginations run free

[bleak ether]

Northwestern Territories or Cameroon or Tanzania. I would like there are two maps at least in Africa.

[midnight moon]

water mountians jungle

brill

[stray basalt]

Suriname seems to be the only one that allows it.

[candid cliff]

Nepal still allows hunting

[plain vigil]

wich has different ares swamp type etc

[midnight moon]

all cotw maps are square right?

[finite wagon]

I should draw a pseudomelanistic snow leopard concept

[mortal cosmos]

Nepal sells tiger hunting licenses I think, not sure about snow leopards

[stray basalt]

Vurhonga is definitely not square.

[plain vigil]

technacily

it is

[midnight moon]

no like the map borders

[plain vigil]

if you look at the outline

[midnight moon]

ie not a rectangle or oblong

[waxen sparrow]

Yall really think they would make another hunting game if/after they are done with cotw?

[stray basalt]

The playable area is not square and that’s really all that matters.

[mortal cosmos]

Why wouldnt they?

[candid cliff]

I’m hoping for a dinosaur hunting game

[waxen sparrow]

Cause they already have one

Well yeah if it was a dino hunting game sure

[stray basalt]

I really want a vintage hunting game, something like my https://discord.com/channels/393040947006406657/1187670413002690590 or https://discord.com/channels/393040947006406657/1130567081780326530.

[plain vigil]

@midnight moon try to use liek that

[waxen sparrow]

But i meant like modern animals

[plain vigil]

these landscapes

[midnight moon]

wat biomes is that

[mortal cosmos]

and Way of the hunter?

[midnight moon]

coastal, desert ish, mountains, jungle

[plain vigil]

wait i can yend you soe photos

[midnight moon]

please do

[plain vigil]

from left to rigth

[waxen sparrow]

wdym?

[waxen sparrow]

Really interesting tbh

[west wadi]

This should help

[mortal cosmos]

I mean it shows that there is a market for new hunting games

[west wadi]

Mountains stop clouds, stop moisture

[mortal cosmos]

with updated mechanics/graphics

[west wadi]

So having wetlands to the left and jungles to the right makes no sense

[waxen sparrow]

Oh yeah, but why would they make another game instead of simply updating cotw

[stray basalt]

There isn’t much to hunt in the Amazon TBH.

[finite wagon]

Working on it now, will post here when done

[mortal cosmos]

Once cotw hits a certain age, I dont see any reason why EW would not look to make a new game on an updated engine that runs better allows for better graphics/animal behaviour etc

[west wadi]

I disagree

[midnight moon]

thanks that does help

[west wadi]

Here’s a simplified one

[mortal cosmos]

outdated framework that the game is based on

[stray basalt]

Classes 5-7 there’s nothing.

[west wadi]

The Atacama really goes under the radar

[midnight moon]

desert mountain grass jungle right?

[waxen sparrow]

Wouldnt that be harder/more time consuming tho

[west wadi]

Tapir, Andean bear, marsh deer, jaguar, huemul, fur seal

[stray basalt]

You’ve got monkeys…. more monkeys… even more monkeys… tapirs… occasionally deer make a resurgence….

[west wadi]

You have a grossly oversimplified idea of South America

[mortal cosmos]

Initialy, but then you have a new updated framwork that provides a better experience and will be easier to build on and add too

[candid cliff]

Tbh Yucatán would be a better location for a map

[west wadi]

Not to mention reptiles like caiman, anaconda, and tegu

[stiff hornet]

So…what if the 10th new species is the Honey Badger? They’re native to Nepal and are quite a nuisance.

[west wadi]

I hope not

But you could very well be right

[waxen sparrow]

i see

[stiff hornet]

They’re demons. I’d like to see them, adds a little bit of extra danger to the map.

[plain vigil]

maybe some normal species or an crazy thing thats realy make many people excited

[west wadi]

Honey badger don’t give a F. about my hopes for Nepal

[stray basalt]

Suriname or The Yucatán is the better choice. There’s actual medium to large sized game. https://discord.com/channels/393040947006406657/1207357430963507281

[west wadi]

Could be dhole, moon bear, sloth bear, gaur, Himalayan monal, Indian peafowl, any number of pheasant species

Guess we have to wait and see

[west wadi]

See, that was an interesting concept, but hunting venomous snakes is the most uninteresting experience ever in a video game

[gentle shale]

New map isnt even out and already talking about new map talk about short attention span

[stray basalt]

Not to mention for an Amazon map…the obvious lag problems, tens of thousands trees which would need even more points of connection for the billions of damn monkey species.

[west wadi]

Anaconda I could imagine working by virtue of their size and activity in water, but venomous snakes hardly move

[obtuse vapor]

Is there a complete animal list for the nepal map yet?

[west wadi]

Check pins

[plain vigil]

look in pinned

[west wadi]

That’s all the new ones

[obtuse vapor]

Thanks

[west wadi]

No problem

[plain vigil]

no flex but i am pinned there

[candid cliff]

That we know of

[midnight moon]

big flex 🦾

[plain vigil]

thank you bro

[stray basalt]

Even Peru or Northern Argentina would be a better choice than a strictly Amazon map.

[deep barn]

Or striped hyena

[candid cliff]

Argentina has great dove and duck hunting

[midnight moon]

@plain vigil this is what i have rn

[stray basalt]

I need them to fix the duck landing in blind thing. Completely ruins the hunt.

[plain vigil]

thats what i though too

[west wadi]

I said it before, but you really have a grossly oversimplified idea of South America. I doubt they’d ever add monkeys

[plain vigil]

like mountain on the left

wanna see the final

[molten pond]

I personally would prefer a SA map to be more tropical woodland flood plain than deep amazon

[midnight moon]

desert to the left the on the right the top half is jungle and the bottom half is grasslands

[plain vigil]

perfect

[midnight moon]

what colours should i use

[plain vigil]

maybe try to make outlooks and streets

ligth green dark green grey

[midnight moon]

oh yes i should add those

[candid cliff]

True but I still want more fowl

[stray basalt]

That’s Peru, Spectacled Bear have a limited range (not even remotely close to the Amazon). Not Brazil (as you proposed) Peru would have a wildly different species list of Duck, Feral Goat, Guanaco, Doves, and so much more!

[midnight moon]

green for jungle light green for grass yellow for desert and grey fo rmountain

[plain vigil]

yeah

[fair hatch]

how many level 9s would be there ?
tibetan fox
tiger
Yak
Water Buffalo

[plain vigil]

snow leopard

[fair hatch]

leapord maybe ?

[plain vigil]

too

[fair hatch]

if so it'll be the map with the most lvl 9s

[hollow tundra]

Yak could be a 5

[stray basalt]

Yak are probably going to be more like bison and go to level 5.

[hollow tundra]

Snow leopard will be a 9 tho

[fair hatch]

prolly right

[fair hatch]

ye since all the big cats are 9

puma and lion

[stray basalt]

You yourself are grossly oversimplifying South America lol.

[west wadi]

I never proposed Brazil

[hollow tundra]

all predators are level 9

[fair hatch]

OH YOUR RIGHT

my tiny brain just realised

[midnight moon]

oxbow lakes in the amazon would make a good opportunity

[plain vigil]

a river wich is realy curvy

[stray basalt]

The Amazon is really only good for a fishing game.

[plain vigil]

i give more open amazon there are so many animals

[midnight moon]

done

[plain vigil]

jaguar crocodile big game to name a few

[fair hatch]

jaguar*

[plain vigil]

o yeah

[fair hatch]

leapords dont live in south america

[plain vigil]

panther is a melanistic jaguar

[fair hatch]

mhm

panther is not a species

[plain vigil]

nice rare

is

[fair hatch]

just a nickname

[plain vigil]

i mean

[fair hatch]

sounds cool

[fair hatch]

or a leapord!

[midnight moon]

would you mind creating a list of species we could put on this map

[fair hatch]

india is know to have the most mela leapords

[midnight moon]

im at the colouring stage

[plain vigil]

no problem

[midnight moon]

dm me it

[hollow tundra]

leopards aint in south america

[fair hatch]

^

[fair hatch]

talking abt mela cats in general

[plain vigil]

would a monkey be a possible animal in the future

[hollow tundra]

oh

that makes sense now

[plain vigil]

how about snake could they come to the game probaly not

[proper wedge]

What's the difference between animals that go to lvl-5 vs lvl-9? I've never heard an explanation.

[hollow tundra]

btw any of the big cats (which are 'panthers') if melanistic can techincally be called a "black panther"

[hollow tundra]

yeah the game is kinda weird, all predators go to nine, usually the smaller they are the lower max level is, except foxes are 9 since they're predators

but then water buffalo, red deer and prolly some others are level 9 but not predators

[proper wedge]

Why do Red Deer go to 9 but Moose go to 5?

[hollow tundra]

🤷‍♂️

its just how it is i guess

[plain vigil]

i think the are just more variants int antlers at red deer

moose kinda only size

[proper wedge]

Okay, that seems right, if there are reasons for more increments.

[hollow tundra]

yeah, red deer have like a lot of antler types, though i think everything should go to 9

would be funny to see a legendary rabbit

[hollow tundra]

yeah idk what makes them certain levels

[proper wedge]

thanks

[hollow tundra]

np

[finite wagon]

Tackling a concept for a pseudomelanistic snow leopard, what do we think so far?

[plain vigil]

there probaly goign to be an leopard without these "markes"

without the design

[finite wagon]

Like a spotless leopard?

[plain vigil]

thats what i meant

[finite wagon]

I woudnt doubt it honestly!

[plain vigil]

like the stripeless tiger

[finite wagon]

I did want to tackle abundism/pseudomelanism though seeing as we're getting it in tigers

[plain vigil]

these two are togehter

[finite wagon]

Ik

[plain vigil]

aint no way there are only like 6 in the world

[glacial summit]

16

[tacit hamlet]

I think it needs a body

[finite wagon]

Yeah I'm getting to that

Limbs just be difficult sometimes

[tawdry nebula]

where is my blackbuck

[minor shadow]

Hopefully We will get Axis Deer, Hog Deer, and Sambar Deer will Be added as Backfills Down the Line….Especially Since Axis Deer and Sambar Deer are The Bengal Tiger’s Main Source of Prey!

[next mulch]

on average there are 60 lions total, that includes females

[peak cedar]

I actually don’t care as long as the models are physically the same

Just to make it basic they should do 8/8

I’m very interested to see how big a home range is, that will determine if 16 is enough or not

[limpid sinew]

That is very cool

Can't wait to shoot one

[uneven bloom]

tbh...I'm starting to wonder if snow leopards might exist on the map, but not actually be huntable, ala "invalid target"

[warm nexus]

Oh boy, that'll make Cash big mad.

[tacit hamlet]

I highly doubt that

[uneven bloom]

Nepal's one and only game reserve does have a snow leopard population, but the article I found dated May 26th of this year also clearly states that shooting one is prohibited

so it's either that, or an extremely good reason tied to the story.

[tacit hamlet]

They wouldn’t show them off in pictures and highlight them if they weren’t huntable

[warm nexus]

The game doesn't need to be 1v1 to real life. It's a game...

[uneven bloom]

It's been stated that this map is going to put a lot of emphasis on conservation and the like.

[teal garnet]

Can anyone help me with my first GO grind on PS5 no one wanna help

[uneven bloom]

Snow leopards are strictly protected in Nepal. So it better be a good reason.

I'm hoping Tuesday's stream will touch on it more. If not, this map might just break COTW for me.

[warm nexus]

Honestly, I would love to have a camera DLC, where you can choose lenses and ISO and stuff. The thrill for me isn't so much the kill as the stalk.

[teal garnet]

It’s just a game

Some of the rabbits are endangered

[tacit hamlet]

We’ll know when they give the species list

[uneven bloom]

A game that's known for putting lots of emphasis on ethics.

[uneven bloom]

Snow leopard are confirmed on the Steam page.

[teal garnet]

It’s not that deep bruh

[tacit hamlet]

I’m saying if they’re a non huntable species they won’t be on the species list

[uneven bloom]

what I want to hear is the reasoning for them being on the list.

[warm nexus]

Fun thing is ethics change. What is unethical to hunt today might be overpopulated in 100 years.

We don't need to be tied to today.

Much like how elephants still have (and need) protections, but they have recovered so well Botswana is beginning to try to get rid of a bunch: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-68715164

[uneven bloom]

yes, and Nepal's been in talks to apply a plan like that to tigers.

But not snow leopards.

If the reasoning behind them being added to a map set in a country where they are strictly protected isn't a good one, fair chance I will never touch COTW again.

[tacit hamlet]

But why? Hunting them in cotw doesn’t do anything to them irl

[warm nexus]

Fair enough. But shooting digital snow leopards doesn't harm real ones, and might even draw more attention to their conservation.

[uneven bloom]

This game has put a ton of focus on ethics in the past correlating to IRL. It just feels gross to me.

[warm nexus]

As long as the story makes it clear that in real life, they are threatened.

[tacit hamlet]

Ethics and cotw don’t really go together considering how many animals you kill

[warm nexus]

That's the way I view it. If someone can shoot 10k moose trying for a great one, that is equally unethical.

[tacit hamlet]

Obviously it’s up to you but I don’t understand the logic behind it

[uneven bloom]

And I don't expect you to understand either, as we clearly have fundamentally different views of things.

[warm nexus]

And, TBH, the world would be silly if we didn't.

[uneven bloom]

I don't like it because all other animals have had an easily-found reasoning for existing in the game.

[warm nexus]

I mean, if we didn't have different views.

[uneven bloom]

Banteng are invasive pests in Australia. Euro bison are considered NT and are densely populated where they do live. Iberian wolves are still legal, though that may change in the coming future. Lions...only got added because Vurhonga got reviewbombed to hell and back.

[warm nexus]

So, I'm not going to argue. I just feel differently about the line between real life and digital. I don't ever plan on hunting IRL because I don't need to for survival. I don't feel right about culling (even though it desperately needs to happen with whitetails where I am). But digital doesn't have limits, as long as it doesn't encourage real-life poaching. And with the group that is likely to be playing the game, they probably aren't going to be poaching anyway.

[narrow pasture]

At the end of the day, It's a game. it's pixels, not real life. If you are that upset about it, don't play the game.

[warm nexus]

And, if the story is told right, it will make it clear that while digital is a free-for-all, real life leopards are endangered and people might even decide to help with conservation efforts, or at least go back to doing nothing about it.

[tacit hamlet]

(Regarding that last line) before this map was announced I saw people arguing against endangered species being in the game because of making people into poachers and I just find that take halarious

[narrow pasture]

Really at the end of the day, it's pixels

Pixels aren't real

IT's called a game for a reason

if we decided off of ethics, on every game we did, everyone would be gulty of something

[haughty aurora]

Is Persistence hunting coming with this update?

[tacit hamlet]

Huh?

[languid wedge]

[tacit hamlet]

Hello kingfishy

[stone turret]

I looked it up

It’s when you hunt something by exhausting it

[languid wedge]

hello lego

[stone turret]

Sounds unethical as chit

[tacit hamlet]

Sounds like what wolves do

[delicate nebula]

wait so if u kill 16 tigers in singleplayer on sundarpatan, you wont find any more of them? like, ever?

[finite wagon]

Yeah but we arent wolves

[tacit hamlet]

They respawn

[stone turret]

They will respawn

[finite wagon]

No they'll respawn

[hollow tundra]

theyll respawn

[tacit hamlet]

No

[amber kiln]

They respawn when you relaunch the game

[stone turret]

Idk why people keep thinking they’ll only get 16 tigers when every species in the game respawns

[delicate nebula]

I was about to quit the game, if that's how all the animals worked

[glacial summit]

lmao

Its still cotw guys

[delicate nebula]

I read the chat, and everyone's reaction to 16 tigers, seemed to line up a bit too closely to that

[glacial summit]

they arent completely changing the identity of the game

[stone turret]

I wasn’t talking about you specifically I’ve seen dozens of posts about it

[delicate nebula]

your message seemed to mock me and those people, so I answered back. Sorry.

[stone turret]

No I swear not mocking im legitimately confused why people think that they’d have a limited number of animals to hunt

[quick knoll]

anyone know the most likely release date

[delicate nebula]

You say you're not mocking, but still sounds like it... Well, I have 70 hours in the game, and don't pay attention to this server that much. So when I finally decide to check it out, reading peoples frustrations on how difficult tiger grinds are gonna be, made me question if we'd have limited tigers, per player. I was just putting out a question, but you decided to let out your frustration with the people that're posting about it, right after everyone reacted to my message, which made it sound mocking to me. That's it

[glacial summit]

18th is most likely

[delicate nebula]

nah 20

[glacial summit]

why the 20th

[quick knoll]

ive heard a lot of people say the 18th

[lethal hound]

Any date before July is great.

[delicate nebula]

trust me.

[quick knoll]

then again EC released on the 20th also i think

[delicate nebula]

i didnt know about that

[glacial summit]

18th is most likely everest do be trolling, maybe 25th, ig the 11th could be possible?

[glacial summit]

they release on tuesdays

the 20th is a thursday

[delicate nebula]

im not trolling, just making an assumption

[lethal hound]

I feel like the 11th is a bit early.

[quick knoll]

fair enough

[glacial summit]

A very dumb assumption

[lethal hound]

Depends how much they reveal tuesday tbh.

[quick knoll]

we'll find put tuesday ig

[glacial summit]

seeing as you just chose a random thursday

[delicate nebula]

ahh my bad, i did not know this was so important to you.

my apologies, mister.

[quick knoll]

the release date and animals should anounced tuesday no?

[delicate nebula]

like stfu yoy goofy asf individual

[lethal hound]

dang yall salty

[glacial summit]

ur spreading misinformation yeah its somewhat important

[quick knoll]

frfr

[delicate nebula]

nah this kid just weird asf

[brittle sigil]

When is the map gonna release

[glacial summit]

Not technically but your saying stuff that makes no sense lol

[delicate nebula]

im not allowed to say anything here, I guess

[glacial summit]

confusing people

[quick knoll]

18th or 20th or 25th or 11th

[delicate nebula]

not rlly?

you've lost it my guy

[brittle sigil]

@quick knoll kk

[glacial summit]

see now hes repeating the 20th now because of you

[delicate nebula]

🔥

[glacial summit]

I will buy you the map if its the 20th everest

cause its not

[quick knoll]

bet

[delicate nebula]

sure my boy

ion real care, getting it anyway

[quick knoll]

this shi funny asf fr

[delicate nebula]

ikr

[quick knoll]

lol

[delicate nebula]

you mewing rn, sir?

[quick knoll]

yessir

every waking moment of my life

[delicate nebula]

oh you're an air-softer

[quick knoll]

yep

[delicate nebula]

I like shooting ppl too 🔥 🔥

[quick knoll]

fr

[delicate nebula]

kk well, goodnight

[quick knoll]

alr

cya

[peak cedar]

Lmfao 🤣

[haughty aurora]

Is the map out?

[upbeat glacier]

Did I miss any news?

[delicate nebula]

not that I know of

[limber cliff]

Map is NOT out yet, we are hoping to hear info on it come Tuesday

[plain yoke]

the waiting is the worst part ....

[tawdry nebula]

https://tenor.com/view/are-we-there-yet-donkey-asno-shrek-shrek2-gif-23855972

Anyone have a picture of the map?

[tacit hamlet]

Wdym?

Something specific?

[tawdry nebula]

the map

🗺️

[tacit hamlet]

Oh. It was shown at the beginning of the stream

[tawdry nebula]

yeah, asking if someone have it

too lazy to search for it in the stream

[peak cedar]

it's literally the first 10 mins into the stream

bro really is "too lazy" 💀

something about blurry webcams HURTS my eyes

[vivid cosmos]

I am dying for some new tiger info,

[narrow pasture]

The rares are sick tbh\

[vivid cosmos]

The rares are just rad

[narrow pasture]

Imagine that sneaking up on you tho bro

[vivid cosmos]

I´m just happy we will finally get a new AI in the game

and new behaviours

Imagine a Mountain lion stalking you in the future, It might not attack but there is the possibility or a pack of lions

[stray basalt]

I just want a better look at the Bharal tbh.

[vivid cosmos]

me too

new sheep new me

[fossil mountain]

New predators new me

[finite wagon]

Remind me. This new map at full price will be $12, but at release it'll be 20% off, right?

[quartz harbor]

Yep

$11 or $12 can’t remember

But 20% off at release for sure

[finite wagon]

Lets just assume the bigger number lol

[quartz harbor]

Yeah lmao

[finite wagon]

Ok then I can for sure buy it then 👍

[quartz harbor]

I’m hoping I can 😬

[finite wagon]

Just to be extra safe I just transferred the funds to steam so yea

I'll be able to buy it for sure now

[quartz harbor]

Good plan

Is there a release date yet?

[scarlet bluff]

no

[quartz harbor]

Damn

[scarlet bluff]

we get a release date tuesday i believe

[quartz harbor]

Oh ok sick thanks

[tawdry nebula]

Ty
We don’t have x large size lakes, thankfully

[tawdry nebula]

How about shut the fk up and go to sleep

[stray basalt]

I’m just glad it seems most of the mountain hunting will be done naturally (not a lot of lakes up there).

[scarlet bluff]

that just means the lakes will all be filled with the animals that have drink zones up there

[glacial summit]

Gonna need to reduce the numbers of mountain lions to make this at all viable

[tawdry nebula]

Still there are many lakes, so they are going to be distributed

[glacial summit]

plan on the 18th or the 25th until confirmed otherwise

[vivid cosmos]

not an ugly thought either but just make em not as aggresive as tigers, they follow you but don´t attack most of the time

[scarlet bluff]

depends on the animal

[tawdry nebula]

True

[glacial summit]

yeah something like that, I just got off srp and now Im pissed at lions again

[scarlet bluff]

i feel like all the species in the mountain areas will probably only have zones in himal

[vivid cosmos]

Jaxy said they will make the pumas quieter so thats a win anyways

but I´d like different animals to have different behaviours

[torn holly]

I hope they have drink zones. I spent a long time looking for a chamois diamond, and I don’t even plan on looking for a mt goat

[vivid cosmos]

like the devs should really play with the numbers they use

[tawdry nebula]

they don’t follow?

[vivid cosmos]

the pumas?

do they?

[scarlet bluff]

me too

[tawdry nebula]

oh it was suggestion

[jade wyvern]

Mt goats aren’t that bad. Diamonds aren’t that rare for them

[tawdry nebula]

they don’t follow, I thought you were saying they follow

[vivid cosmos]

oh yeah, Make em not as aggresive as tigers, so they follow but don´t attack mostly

[tawdry nebula]

Yeah that’s good suggestion

[torn holly]

I have tried looking for them , and I can never find them. I’ll spend 2 hours, and find 4 goats, so I have pretty much just given up.

[orchid linden]

They have been for me. It's a fun and realistic pursuit, but exhausting. Only found one troll so far.

[tawdry nebula]

And let’s hope that lions get some love too

[vivid cosmos]

Lions desperately need some

[quick knoll]

fr

[tawdry nebula]

I am happy that probably I am going to have some good blackbuck grinds (not like the ones in parque)

(Yeah I do grinds sometimes, but I am against grinders)

[scarlet bluff]

lions could look so good with a remodel

they did tahr fur pretty decent so i think the manes would look really nice

[quartz harbor]

Alr thanks

[fair fiber]

Why lions dont have the same system as tigers, I believe lions are more stealthy than tigers

Plus they can make lions be in big prides

For example 1-2 males and like 7 females

[narrow pasture]

No they're very different

Tigers are mostly solitary

[rustic geyser]

Lions were gangsta until people complained

[tawdry nebula]

that’s what I am talking about ^

[fair fiber]

Whos complaining bro thats a fact, lions should have that in the future too

[finite wagon]

People USED to complain

When they first released

[fair fiber]

Oooh yeaaaaa

[rustic geyser]

You misunderstand. Lions were very aggressive when first released. Then people complained and now they're like sheep

[finite wagon]

Only real chance u have of getting mauled by a lion is if ur bowhunting it

[fair fiber]

Oh yea bro

Why did ppl complain bro

[rustic geyser]

Download a copy of cotw to a pc that has no internet connection and keep 1st gen tigers 😏

[fair fiber]

They made lions very peaceful now

They only attack when u get really close now

[rustic geyser]

We get more grief from buffalo and some of those birds on rev

Stalk you from one side of the map to the other

[fair fiber]

Tigers will be harder to get as rares

16 only on a map

[rustic geyser]

Grinders will figure it out soon enough

[midnight moon]

Any idea when it’ll be released into the game?

[fair fiber]

But I think I understand why only 16

Maybe they endange

Endangered*

[rustic geyser]

Might find out next week

[fair fiber]

No idea

On tuesday

[midnight moon]

Ahh ok

[west wadi]

I believe the 18th, but it’s not official

Just an estimate

[fair fiber]

They leaking

[rustic geyser]

I think there's a cream for that

[versed canyon]

I believe it's due to their New mechanic. If you have more you would get hunted all over the map by Tigers...

[rustic geyser]

That'd be pretty sick tbh

[fair fiber]

Oh yea

[rustic geyser]

Insert velociraptor tiger hunt scene mashup

clever girl

[peak cedar]

Can we stop posting dates and then say “I think” because people just take that info and run with it 💀

[next mulch]

i think

the map will come out

maybe

[tacit hamlet]

Nope. This is all a lie

We’re actually getting Nebraska

[peak cedar]

Nebraska is crazy 💀

[glacial summit]

Nebraska best map

[peak cedar]

Only thing it’s better than is that GO tahr that we currently have a pic of

Anything is better than that 😪

[rustic geyser]

Does nebraska still rate against dt chicago? non us citizen here

[tacit hamlet]

Huh?

[rustic geyser]

Words are hard. How does Nebraska stack up against downtown chicago

Lol

[tacit hamlet]

Considering Nebraska is a whole state, very empty

Nebraska is a farming state since it’s flat and fertile

[glacial summit]

I'm curious what GO were you hoping for this update

[rustic geyser]

Fair enough. I thought it was a reference to wildlife. My bad.

[peak cedar]

like a lot of people, Tiger...snow leopard. That sort of realm

[torn holly]

Sika

[glacial summit]

based

[tacit hamlet]

I was just making a joke about another US map

[tacit hamlet]

Considering what we know now I see why it wasn’t tiger

[peak cedar]

yeah you say that until tahr don't end up with drink zones

[glacial summit]

just a heads up constantly complaining about tahr won't make them decide to change to Tiger on release

[tacit hamlet]

I prefer no drink zones over only 16 on the map

[peak cedar]

lmao, I really must tick you off about that huh?

[tacit hamlet]

though both are bad

[glacial summit]

we are equally as annoyed by the tahr situation but for different reasons I fear

[peak cedar]

what even is your reason?

[glacial summit]

You trashing it every time you speak here

Just being a negative Nancy

[peak cedar]

So I was right

[glacial summit]

But its ok we can disagree

[glacial summit]

100%

[finite wagon]

A brief mock-up of what a pseudomelanistic Snow leopard could potentially look like!

[midnight moon]

Would you really want to have 40-60 tigers on the map at once especially with the major aggression? You wouldn’t be able to hunt that dang map.

[peak cedar]

tbf they said the number could change. It's only 16 as a baseline rn

[midnight moon]

Im hoping it stays that way

[peak cedar]

it depends on what the community says as a whole

[midnight moon]

I’d like to live lol

“OH GREAT ONE TAHR LETS GOOO!!!” dies

[peak cedar]

well, a few devs testing vs 1,000s of players will make such a difference

[finite wagon]

16 is a fine number but maybe leave it at just 20

[peak cedar]

there's a lot of factors we still don't really know about them to justify if 16 is enough or not

[glacial summit]

explanation of the word psuedomelanistic

[peak cedar]

idek how to say that word

let alone what it means 💀

[midnight moon]

Soo do mela nistic

Soo doe*

Whoopsies

[glacial summit]

exactly more tigers is great until you can grind other species because of them

like trying to grind elk on srp situation

[peak cedar]

I would assume they spook species just like lions, puma...etc

[midnight moon]

20 tigers would be about perfect

[glacial summit]

Took me 30 seconds to try and spell it

[finite wagon]

It is also known as abundism, and it is when the animal is partially melanistic and the markings kinda look like they explode or fuse together. King cheetahs are the most popular example of pseudomelanism in animals, but it has also been documented in zebras, tigers, and leopards. Cross foxes could also be an example of pseudomelanism.

[peak cedar]

yeah we haven't seen an fur variations for them other than the grey/common screenshot

[midnight moon]

Time to post a funny meme that some people will not find funny

[glacial summit]

Hard to say till we actually play the map but I think 16-24 is a great spot to have them at at a glance

[finite wagon]

We are getting pseudomelanistic tigers in COTW.

[peak cedar]

I would imagine we can expect at least the basics, Albino and Melanistic

[glacial summit]

This is what the chat is all about

[glacial summit]

gotcha

[mighty dove]

Psuedomelanistic zebra

[midnight moon]

I love him

I wanna give him a little head scratch

[peak cedar]

Real question is why can't we have Mela Lions if we have Mela Tigers 😩

that's what I wanna know

[glacial summit]

that's a reverse zebra idk what ur on about

[torn holly]

Erm, it’s called an arbez

[midnight moon]

Because that would “tAkE aWaY a GrEaT onE fUr oPpUrtuniTy”

[glacial summit]

theres a lot of decisions in this game that contradict eachother

[glacial summit]

😭

[finite wagon]

The reason why I drew a pseudomelanistic snow leopard is because we have no real-world recorded instances of rare fur colors in leopards. Albinism, melanism, etc. has never been recorded in the wild. But it can exist. I drew a snow leopard with abundism as a prediction or suggestion for a rare.

[peak cedar]

as someone who has played since before medved, I have a growing pain with this topic lol

[glacial summit]

Yeah they have changed direction a lot it seems

[finite wagon]

Melanistic lions have never been recorded in the wild but honestly, if we have goddamn melanistic cougars (also never recorded) why can't we have mela lions?

[peak cedar]

that is what I'm saying!

lol

[midnight moon]

Ive never questioned dev decisions I’ve just played the game because I am one of those rare folks that enjoys everything they put out.

[glacial summit]

Or mela a lot of animals

the rares in this guy are not very realistic

[midnight moon]

I even enjoyed New England🤯

[finite wagon]

I actually love New England lol

[peak cedar]

I mean please don't take away the Mela Tigers EW, but I'm asking you to give us the Lions. Clarification

[finite wagon]

Yup this guy was my reference

[midnight moon]

It reminds me of West Virginia which I LOVE

[mighty dove]

Don’t talk bad about NEM if you know what’s good for you

[glacial summit]

First time west Virginia has been mentioned in a positive way possibly ever

[midnight moon]

If you ignore the major meth problem it’s an amazing state

[glacial summit]

😭

[peak cedar]

NEM may not be a horrible map now, but as a new map release it was trash

[orchid linden]

John Denver would like a word. 😆

[peak cedar]

I'm sorry

[midnight moon]

Nono, you have a point.

[glacial summit]

Pfft that doesn't count

[orchid linden]

I freaking loved it and still do.

[midnight moon]

West Virginia towards the north and east side of the state is actually amazing…you get towards Charleston…ur in for a TREAT.

And that treat is seeing some guy tweakin and flopping around like a drowning fish

[glacial summit]

Doesn't it rank really lower in quality of life and education?

and wealth

[midnight moon]

Wealth yes

QOL

definitely

Education?

[peak cedar]

Do not visit WV unless you have to

that's my advice

[glacial summit]

Real

[midnight moon]

Half the population is inbred

So

Education

[peak cedar]

and sped

[midnight moon]

Nada

[glacial summit]

😭😭

But if you get rid of the people it's alright basically

Lotta states like that tbh

[midnight moon]

im in WV rn visiting family and its okay

[torn holly]

Florida

[peak cedar]

Add DE to that list 🙋‍♂️

[midnight moon]

Now you go towards The snowshoe mountain area WV isn’t bad

But

[glacial summit]

Nah

Good for entertainment

[midnight moon]

We’re gonna leave it at but

[torn holly]

Fair point

[glacial summit]

Well I will leave the visiting of WV to you my friend

[glacial summit]

Could be us but @peak cedar isn't about it

[midnight moon]

Now I live in Kentucky and it’s like driving into a new world as you cross back in

The crackheads practically disappear and it’s more peaceful

[glacial summit]

Is Kentucky half inbred as well?

[midnight moon]

The southern half

[glacial summit]

that tracks

[midnight moon]

Go figure tho

[glacial summit]

Someone's gotta reinforce stereotypes

[midnight moon]

Meh I’ve noticed the stereotypes for the south are way off, I’ve noticed it gets more inbred further north

Ive been to almost every eastern state except (SOMEHOW) Alabama

[glacial summit]

Yeah it's always a struggle when I tell people my dad is from Alabama

[peak cedar]

Oh yeah 😎

[glacial summit]

ArE YoUr ParEnTs SibLinGs???

[midnight moon]

😭

The Texas stereotype is on par though, it is all flat and yeehaw honkies

[stable parcel]

what half of kentucky is louisville in

[midnight moon]

The worst half. (Western)

[peak cedar]

Is that not Alabama?!

[glacial summit]

I'm from NM so I'm actually legally obligated to hate on Texas

[midnight moon]

No thats northern WV

[midnight moon]

Lmao

[peak cedar]

nvm I think Alabama was "messing with your cousin"

[midnight moon]

That’s more like it

[glacial summit]

Cant even listen to the all time great song sweet home Alabama anymore cause of people

[peak cedar]

nah they cancelled that song 💀

[glacial summit]

It's a cruel world

[midnight moon]

Nah let me hug my cousin dawg😭😭😭im not tryna get with her

[peak cedar]

lmao just like they cancelled Jason Aldean

[ripe cobalt]

Relax, there is a small vocal minority that's mad about the tahr. Not half the community. Basically just the Uber grinders that want the game to be easy.

[peak cedar]

it's literally just me

big mad

[glacial summit]

Real ones know GO tahr is for the best

[midnight moon]

Ur a little late I posted that 1734 chats ago lmfao

[glacial summit]

To be fair that was the last thing posted that was on topic

ever since its been incest and Texans so

[midnight moon]

It seems EVERY TIME I come in here to talk it goes in left field

[peak cedar]

why, because no drink zones?

[midnight moon]

I think I need to go back to my group chat lmao

[glacial summit]

Some people have the ability to do that, and I don't help the situation

anywho good talking

[tacit hamlet]

I didn’t say that

[ripe cobalt]

7 minutes ago?

[midnight moon]

Im pretty sure i replied to the wrong one, we’ve been on the topic of states long enough I done forgor

[glacial summit]

Real

[midnight moon]

My point still stands

[glacial summit]

It may have not been directed at you either rather the debate around it as a whole

[peak cedar]

just saying if they needed a Halloween idea for cotw. Just give us a few days of 200 Tigers on the map

I say that's good enough

[midnight moon]

In this chat I may reply to you with a statement but it really is to everyone seeing it

[midnight moon]

Halloween night we get tiger jumpscares like on the old hunting games

[feral ferry]

werewolves that stalked you would be insane

[peak cedar]

I wish, but there's so much dev time that has to go into that

we wouldn't get any content for months just so we could for a week

its a bad tradeoff

[feral ferry]

also i feel that a limited time animal would somehow bug the population if they take it in and out lol

if you didn’t update your game you could have werewolves forever

[mighty dove]

Lmao

No update, no problem

[real flame]

werewolves…….

[left adder]

what if they make it so you cant play without updating?

like cod, but thats multiplayer idk how it works

or make it so that there is like only 1 werewolf

in the map

[stone turret]

I’d rather them make a new great one than a werewolf ngl

[glacial summit]

I hope instead they just release a weapon pack that has slightly better versions of calibers that are already in the game

I don't think they have done that enough yet

[real flame]

lmaooo

(but real, I wouldn't mind a new 7.62R rifle)

[midnight moon]

people say the tahr is the great one but in the streams they said it wasnt, but it was not a base game animal

[quasi holly]

what

did they say that??

[midnight moon]

the stream on tuesday

[quasi holly]

yeah but then why is there a photo of a great one tahr

[midnight moon]

?

where?

[quasi holly]

it was in an email most people got from the newsletter

[real flame]

that's prolly just a regular tahr

[midnight moon]

^

[quasi holly]

oh thank god

[real flame]

and 'great one' is like a nickname

[tacit hamlet]

They never said it wasn’t the great one

[quasi holly]

exactly

[tacit hamlet]

A community manager has confirmed that is a great one

[quasi holly]

aw

man

thats so sad

maybe we get two great ones??

iono

[midnight moon]

the only post saying it was a great one is the steam store page for the dlc

where its known in nepal as the "great one"

[tacit hamlet]

The full picture with the great one says great one tahr

[midnight moon]

link?

[tacit hamlet]

And a community manager said that email is valid

[tacit hamlet]

Give me a minute

[midnight moon]

if thats a great one

that is extremely disappointing

[quasi holly]

amen

[tacit hamlet]

That’s just one variant

Give it a chance

[quasi holly]

yeah but that doesn't make it any better

[midnight moon]

i mean

yeah

[quasi holly]

like what if you grind for one of the variants and t hen get this

[midnight moon]

it looks like a normal irl tahr

[quasi holly]

this just looks like a normal tahr but less hair

[midnight moon]

id expect that to be diamond tbh

[tacit hamlet]

All great ones have their disappointing parts

[quasi holly]

not even true

even the fallow's spoon rack has some merit to it

this is just

a regular tahr

with less hair

[tacit hamlet]

For almost the entire community there’s at least one thing on each GO that is disappointing

And we have seen 1 normal tahr. We don’t have enough information to accurately judge it yet

[quasi holly]

it is so over if this is like the red deer great one where it's one variant

[tacit hamlet]

It won’t be

[quasi holly]

how do you know

[tacit hamlet]

Because the last 3 weren’t

[midnight moon]

why the tahr tho

and not the snow leopard

[tacit hamlet]

They aren’t gonna go backwards with GO progress

[midnight moon]

like, there are so many other good great one options

[tacit hamlet]

They’ll likely say Tuesday

[midnight moon]

imagine a great one bison, cape buffalo, water buffalo, lion, wolf, etc

every great one has been a prey animal besides the bear

[tacit hamlet]

Give me the tahr over a wolf every time

[slow bane]

when does the reserve come out

[tacit hamlet]

We’ll know Tuesday

[slow bane]

ok

[midnight moon]

mightve well asked for a great one feral goat or one of the like 4 ibex on the spanish map lmao

[amber kiln]

Probably because the tahr has been one of the most requested species since te awaroa’s release. You may be surprised but tahr have been requested to come to the game as much as tigers or the big 5

If not more at some points

[molten pond]

I honestly don't care which species gets a great one or not. Still doesn't change how I will never have one in my lodge

[midnight moon]

is that so?

ive never heard of a tahr in my life

played the game for 400 hours

and not seen one person mention that animal

[amber kiln]

#🦡︴cotw-scotland message

[molten pond]

rookie numbers

[midnight moon]

took long breaks due to the changed in the number scoring of animals and the gun class reworks

drove me away for a year

[tacit hamlet]

Yes. Tahr have been wanted for years

[midnight moon]

or two cant remember

[amber kiln]

1000+ messages for tahr before may, more than that because 1000 is the cap for how many discord says

[molten pond]

I've been playing since parque and I can tell you that people have been asking for Tahr for a long time

[tacit hamlet]

I wonder if they’ll use the species picture from the missions

I’d assume so

[amber kiln]

The te missions?

[tacit hamlet]

Yeah

[amber kiln]

They should, unless they improve upon it

[midnight moon]

huh, had this game for 7 years

thought id hear of a tahr

[tacit hamlet]

Just having the game won’t make you hear about tahr

[midnight moon]

nah i know

playing multiplayer would

watching youtubers

both of which i did in those 7 years

im not saying its not popular as the evidence is there but its suprising thats its so popular yet i never knew the animal existed

[amber kiln]

Most YouTubers mention tahr when they hunt te awaroa if not frequently then at some point

[midnight moon]

ah

that would explain it

i stopped playing around then

[tacit hamlet]

The tahr started there for the most part because it was planned but the engine couldn’t take it

[amber kiln]

And ever since it wasn’t added it’s been requested like crazy

[midnight moon]

was it requested before that point?

[tacit hamlet]

And now that we have seen it in game I see why

[tacit hamlet]

I’m sure some were but not like crazy if I had to guess

[midnight moon]

also what is the "big 5"

[tacit hamlet]

5 dangerous big game animals of Africa. I forget what all they are

Leopard, lion, elephant, rhino and something else?

[molten pond]

buffalo

[torn holly]

I think something like leopard, hippo, lion, rhino, and buffalo

[molten pond]

it's been mixed up over the years, but I'm pretty sure the original was buffalo, leopard, rhinoceros, lion and elephant

[torn holly]

I’d have thought for sure hippo would have been on there

[midnight moon]

where is vurhonga based on the irl map of africa?

[tacit hamlet]

South

I think

[molten pond]

I think some people try to through hippo in because it's a dangerous animal, but the big five was a term use in safari hunting and hippos were not as popular to hunt as the others

[amber kiln]

I think most places replace rhino now a days when referring to hunts for the big 5

[midnight moon]

atp

this is a far cry 4 map

[molten pond]

It's in southern africa due to gemsbok and springbok being on the map

[midnight moon]

was wondering if we would get another african map with nile crocs, elands, etc

[molten pond]

I think it depends cause some countries still allow hunts for southern white rhinos since there are over 10k of them

[molten pond]

who knows, I wouldn't mind an east africa honestly

[amber kiln]

Yeah,I was referring to places where rhinos aren’t hunted as much or aren’t allowed to be hunted. I know of southern white rhinos hunts

[midnight moon]

what im really craving is a jungle map

[tacit hamlet]

Well, that’s somewhat coming

[amber kiln]

Depends territory by territory, reserve by reserve

[midnight moon]

Anything new ?

[tacit hamlet]

No

[midnight moon]

jaguars, tapirs, macaw if possible, caimans, capybara, otters

[molten pond]

A few days ago I suggested a colombia map that had most of those but also the crack hippos

[midnight moon]

hmm

other than the new map and a jungle south american map, what other maps would work

[quick grail]

I wonder if you could like, lure in the tigers using distress callers

[midnight moon]

a mongolia map could work

though might be way too similar to the nepal map but then again we do have like 3 US maps

[true pebble]

Yes

[midnight moon]

my guess is east africa with leopards, hippos, elephants, elands, crocs, cape buffalo, rhino, greater khudu, nyala, suni, chobe bushbuck, and other stuff thrown in

[blazing turtle]

We actually have 5 US reserves
• Layton Lakes: Washington/Oregon area
• Yukon Valley: Alaska (Yukon River runs through Alaska)
• Silver Ridge: Colorado
• Mississippi Acres: Mississippi
• New England Mountains; New Hampshire/Maine Area

[midnight moon]

oh

my canadian self took yukon as a canadian map and i completely forgot bout silver ridge

[west wadi]

They’re really covered all of North America except the far North and far South

[midnight moon]

africa is huge

we are still missing a fair bit of animals

[west wadi]

I concur

More than a fair bit

[midnight moon]

i love hunting more exotic animals

[west wadi]

I believe as far as distinctive regions, there’s three potentials: West Africa (Cameroon), East Africa (Ethiopia), and if they haven’t abandoned Vurhonga, Southwest Africa (probably Namibia or Angola)

[midnight moon]

mozambique even

[west wadi]

I was always under the impression Vurhonga was in Mozambique or South Africa

But the lesser kudu threw me

[midnight moon]

mmm

[west wadi]

Such an odd choice

It’s quite a cherry-picked map

Medved and Vurhonga always struck me as odd, but I started playing after they were released

[torn relic]

What time is the next live stream for the new map

[stone turret]

Tuesday around normal time

[torn relic]

I'm new so I don't know

[stone turret]

Well it depends where you are

Time zones and whatnot

[torn relic]

Colorado

[stone turret]

Okay so I think 9 am

[torn relic]

Ok

[stone turret]

Could be wrong tho let me check

[torn relic]

Ok thanks

[shrewd shell]

Some of the story and POI borrow a bit from South African lore and history but much of the terrain, fauna and flora is more central Africa.

[stone turret]

#📢︴game-news the thumbnails for streams have the start times on them

[languid wedge]

12pm Eastern Time you can go off that if it helps

[west wadi]

Indeed

[stone turret]

So 10 Colorado

Cause it’s an hour ahead of pst where I am

[languid wedge]

Yeah 2 behind me

[torn relic]

Ok thanks very much

[midnight moon]

hot take medved is one of the best maps for immersion

there were plenty of times i walked around in that map

and actually felt cold

i just wish that it and revontuli had auroras

[west wadi]

I concur

It’s my favorite map

Just strange for a first D.L.C. choice

[midnight moon]

i wish the skull on the top left of the yukon map was explained

[west wadi]

Skull?

[midnight moon]

ye

open up the yukon map and look at the top left terrain

[west wadi]

I thought the skull was on Medved and signaled where the bear was

[midnight moon]

look below the symbol top left

[west wadi]

Lmao you’re kidding me

I have never noticed that

[midnight moon]

it reminds me of that

100% intentional

[west wadi]

Maybe the mission-makers had plans for a mission rogue animal

[midnight moon]

maybe

for a grizzly bear perhaps

cause there was a bear that did attack people in the story missions

heard people speculated bigfoot lol

[west wadi]

I never did finish the missions

Only did enough to get the Northwestern outpost

[midnight moon]

alot of it was extremely bugged

[abstract halo]

Guys, I'm just stopping by to say just the assistant of the creator of the new map and the weapon that will be used to kill from 7 to 9 is really cool and the day it will be released is the 20th of this month so that's just to give you information. Thanks and I went

[midnight moon]

lol

[bitter matrix]

Ima screenshot this and come back to this if you’re wrong.

[glacial flame]

Troll

The devs have highlighted names

So that’s just a troll

[bitter matrix]

I know it’s a troll

[glacial flame]

In fact

[bitter matrix]

But imagine they are right😭💀

[glacial flame]

<@&393042322499305473> we got a live troll

[languid wedge]

Oh look in #🦌︴general if you think that's bad

[glacial flame]

Oh god I’m on my way

[bitter matrix]

Oh wow

[tidal delta]

[bitter matrix]

White Tahr, gotta love it

[midnight moon]

glorified goat sheep creature

[bitter matrix]

HEY, that’s our next GO right there😭

[midnight moon]

it SMELLS

[real flame]

why are you SMELLING it

like imagine seeing a tahr and going 'ah yes let me stuff my nose into its fur and take a deep whiff'

'damn that smells goated'

[midnight moon]

its in the area of my NOSE

get it AWAY

[finite wagon]

Pseudomelanistic snow leopard rare maybe?? 👀 (art by me!)

[bitter matrix]

Maybe

Would be cool

[midnight moon]

Can confirm they are stinky

[finite wagon]

Would be awesome to see tbh

I mean, I literally drew it so i am biased

But sooo much potential to look pretty damn cool

[finite wagon]

@midnight moon I can send the speedpaint if ya need proof of me drawing this

[midnight moon]

@finite wagon i wonder what patters and fur variations jaguars have

[midnight moon]

Do.it

[finite wagon]

As far as I know, melanism is the only other coloration recorded in jaguars

[midnight moon]

shame

theyre one of my favorite animals

and melanism in jaguars isnt even all that rare

[finite wagon]

Erythrism and pseudomelanism are technically possible, seeing as they've been documented in a close relative (leopards)

But no records yet of that

[finite wagon]

Currently encoding give me a bit

[finite wagon]

Here ya go, an entire two minute speedpaint. I did get some help with anatomy since you can see I was struggling a bit with the limbs lol (granted it had been awhile since I last drew a big cat)

[wraith gale]

Great drawing

[stiff hornet]

Meanwhile I can’t even draw an even circle 😭

[finite wagon]

Thanks, wanted to draw a hypothetical rare

[stone turret]

AI could never

[finite wagon]

Honestly I dont even blame him for wanting a speedpaint

[peak cedar]

You graduated from stick figure?!

[finite wagon]

But tbh does ai even try to replicate a style like that??

Usually ai tries to be pretty realistic

[stone turret]

Ai does speed painting now actually

It’s horrible

[finite wagon]

Tho ai does do pixel art as well nowadays

[stiff hornet]

Maybe, I’m still trash lol

[peak cedar]

What is the hate with AI 💀

[finite wagon]

It literally steals works from artists

[stiff hornet]

Plus it normally looks…off in some way

[peak cedar]

Oh idk I never really use it for art actually

[finite wagon]

People unironically use it to just generate images and claim it as their "art"

All you did was type on a keyboard bro

Pick up the pencil

[peak cedar]

If you try and sell it as your own, yeah that’s wrong lol
