[dreamy goblet]

I swear to god, if any duckspecies exists, itll immediately have a mallard hybrid XD

But then again, not really too surprising

[lone forge]

Yeah we also have a bunch of mäklare hybrids ingame

[dreamy goblet]

Seeing how Mallards are essentially all over the world cause of Humans.

[lone forge]

I mean they're only in Eurasia and northern north America really

And NZ

[dreamy goblet]

Fair enough.

[plucky forge]

i guess that new great one fox will have variant with tricolor

[lone forge]

15 minutes!

#🦌︴general

[lucid parcel]

mb

[stray basalt]

First video I’m gonna watch

Oooh, the 450 only weigh ||3 units||

[plain cosmos]

That's for what classes?

[weak smelt]

I really hope it packs a punch for every class it covers

Like handgun calibers

[torn comet]

48 penentration for the .375

polymer

[plain cosmos]

Damn

[weak smelt]

.454 and .357 levergun when🙏🙏

[plain cosmos]

Hopefully people are gonna be using this instead of Arzyna

[stray basalt]

.357/ 38SPL + P🙏

[weak smelt]

Effective range 200m? weird

Considering max zero is 300m you'd think it be 150m effective range like all other rifles with 300m max zero

[lone forge]

Has anyone shown of the new multimounts?

[weak smelt]

Completely forgot about those

[torn comet]

6,5 and .375 with 200m effective range then? dont remember if there is any else with that effective range

[stray basalt]

6.5 is like 175yds

[plain cosmos]

It has 200m

[stray basalt]

I’m like fairly certain it’s 175

[stray basalt]

Where am I supposed to be looking?

[jaunty drum]

I was right, 450 bm was gonna have inadeqaute penetration for class 8, I was gonna guess 33 penetration but 35 is close

[stray basalt]

This is much cleaner, thank you

[stray basalt]

Wdym?

They label the ammo stats based on what it does for its class range

33 pen could definitely do a number on class 8

[jaunty drum]

I'm saying the 35 pen is why it isn't a 4-8

the 270 is a class 8 cause it has more energy to go with the 35 penetration

[stray basalt]

They didn’t want to make it a 4-8 because everyone complains

(Rightfully so, we have like 80 4-8 rifles)

[lone forge]

Eclipse gadwall

[weak smelt]

Oh my god

[jaunty drum]

If it had 40 pen it wouldn't make sense not being a 4-8

[weak smelt]

The new 10ga sounds beautiful

[stray basalt]

Who’s reviewing it?

[plain cosmos]

For what classes is it?

[weak smelt]

Just heard it on pro xck's video

[weak smelt]

1

[jaunty drum]

but 35 penetration makes sense for a rifle firing a short fat bullet

[torn comet]

saw flinter smack some grouse with the 10ga and i love it

[plain cosmos]

It can't have slugs or anything?

[stray basalt]

Nah

[plain cosmos]

Uff, that sucks

[stray basalt]

It’s just skillful shooting tbh

[plucky forge]

are content creators able to to catch a g1s on the new map?

[wind stone]

Yeah

Very unlikely but it’s possible

[stray basalt]

If they can in the time they are given

[plucky forge]

have any catched a g1 fox

[wind stone]

I buy got a fallow on ec in ea

[wind stone]

No

[weak smelt]

I have

[stray basalt]

He was a beauty

[plucky forge]

i believe you

[jaunty drum]

I think slugs through a choke would destroy the barrel

[plucky forge]

[jaunty drum]

Part of me wishes the penetrating rounds had the round nose for the 375

[plucky forge]

what its that

new multi mount or old

[torn comet]

imagine this with two g1 foxes lol

[broken horizon]

2 males?

[wind stone]

Imagine G1 pheasant and fox

[stray basalt]

Decent multimounts

[weak smelt]

And of course my mela is a female💔

Hope i get some good male rares with the pop reset

I should probably search my red fox populations a bit more

[plucky forge]

theres more?

or its all

[fierce bay]

did you watched shfty?

[lone forge]

I did

[fierce bay]

nice

[lone forge]

He's kinda mediocre

His comment sections are full of 6 year olds

[stray basalt]

I know what I’m doing December 3!

[lone forge]

Any cinnamon teal rework footage?

[torn comet]

did Pro even try the new guns lol

[weak smelt]

Yeah

[torn comet]

oh good

[stray basalt]

Salsweisen would’ve been much cooler if it came with a combo gun.

[weak smelt]

Or something else than a 10ga

(.410)

[stray basalt]

10ga is such a weird choice

Especially a O/U

[weak smelt]

We already have two 10gas

[stray basalt]

Who even makes o/u 10ga nowadays

[weak smelt]

One is overrated and other underrated

[amber kiln]

Flinter shows them at the end of his first hunt video when he’s in the lodge

[lone forge]

Cool

[torn comet]

how does the .375 fare against moose

[stray basalt]

Given the fact it flattens yaks

Probably pretty well

From 300m

[glacial summit]

forgot capercallie

[weak smelt]

Ooooh .375 has iron sights like the canning

[stray basalt]

.375 has somewhat viable irons

The canning is the opposite

[plucky forge]

how much reserve will cost

[vale grotto]

We don't know yet.

[jaunty drum]

you missed one

[outer geyser]

what ducks are in the 3 ducksters?

[vale grotto]

They are all of them.

I didn't get a picture of the names srry.

[glacial summit]

I think the same as the last is most likely, I forget how much that one was though

[vale grotto]

I don't think so as its smaller and I was more then all the other maps

[glacial summit]

Oh is this map noticeably smaller?

[vale grotto]

Sunder was £9.99

[vale grotto]

Yer, I believe its 1/3 of the normal maps. I maybe wrong

[split sedge]

Did they remodel foxes

[glacial summit]

I know they bumped up prices for sundar, reasonably so, I assumed that was the new standard. Im out of the loop though I didnt realize the map was do dmall

[vale grotto]

Ah, yer the map is smaller, same total amount of animals. I recon around £5.

[weak smelt]

I can put my max score in there🙏🙏

[torn comet]

i like this little addition to harvest check

[weak smelt]

Gonna set up for gadwalls and ferruginous duck anyways

Holy crap double lung yak at 400m

[glacial summit]

the 44 probably does that tbh

[weak smelt]

It does

I've tested it

But the lack of expansion makes it take forever to drop

[outer geyser]

The duck multimount one actually looks pretty crazy and the landlubber one is funny

I like them

[iron drum]

Anyone have any photos of ads with the 375?

[stray basalt]

RobMCTube made a great video

[torn comet]

will def be picking up the .375 👍 i got sold

[stray basalt]

Might have to set up vurhonga for duck hunting…

And parque

Using sights on an o/u is kinda cursed

[torn comet]

the iron sight on it is beautiful as is

aiming down with it looks incredible

[lone forge]

Can't wait to get all the rares with the cinnamon teal, I hope they added some new ones like they did with black bucks.

[pine lily]

meanwhile there's me welding the 2-7x scope to the Caversham and abusing it as a slug gun lmao

[weak smelt]

3-7x🤓

[pine lily]

I keep forgetting its a 3-7 and not 2-7 lmao

I just bought a 2-7 crossfire for my Henry so Im just thinking about that lol

[harsh bridge]

After watching streams showing the dogs pointing pheasants i'm so disappointed. They didn't get rid of the pheasants running, so instead of staying still they just run from the dog. Yikes

[weak smelt]

Except they did get rid of the pheasants running

They hunker down and only flush until you're right near them

[harsh bridge]

Except they didn't because finter shows it in his video and it has happened in scarecrows stream several times now

[midnight comet]

Is the dog pointing supposed to make pheasants not run or something? I’m not up to date on what it does

[harsh bridge]

They didn't say, I was just hoping it would. They still run to bushes and then sit after a while it seems

[torn comet]

hopefully they fix it

[weak smelt]

The dog is supposed to make them flush

It's working as intended

[harsh bridge]

With the black grouse they seem to just sit and hold until flushed. It's the pheasants that still run for the bushes

[limber cliff]

Jaxy rn: In most cases when you flush the bird, they do hunker down pretty quick. But think of it like, the bird is looking for cover when they scoot to it, and will hunker when they find it. And then can be flushed from there.

Then he said something about it maybe being tweaked or looked at - I missed it while transcribing what he was saying

[harsh bridge]

Thanks for the clarification! I knew I wasn't seeing things

[limber cliff]

(you can prolly pick his brain, he's on his twitch )

[midnight moon]

What is with your profile description?

[limber cliff]

Oh.

People call me names, I pick the funny ones and add them

[stray basalt]

“Cyber Tyrant” sounds awesome

That’s like a superhero name

[narrow crypt]

what are the animals for salz wiesen park

[limber cliff]

Check the pins

[dusk creek]

Have we seen the new multimounts yet

[stray basalt]

Yes

[dusk creek]

What are they?

[stray basalt]

Check the media tab

[winged sun]

anyone ever seen a 💎 female fox?

[quasi raven]

Grey fox yea but I don't think it can happen with reds.

[winged sun]

same here I’ve seen a sr Leucistic Gray female fox hopefully they made it possible with reds in the new park😆

would be insane to get on the grind and cool for the new 2x red fox multi

actually scratch that it’s two males

here’s these if ya haven’t seen them too

[lean quarry]

The rework looks good. They gave the fox a nice trim.

[abstract bramble]

these multi-mounts look so good

I love the first one

[wind stone]

Let’s go there’s a multi for my sr tufted finally

[hearty blade]

How’d you even get in? Early access?

[weak smelt]

look at the name in the screenshot

[jovial jolt]

They look so damn good

[hearty blade]

ok

[hearty blade]

OH lol

[quaint lintel]

This park just might took away our chance of getting a full reserve in UK or Sweden.

Ans it is now the central point of the World map with being 1.5 bigger 💀

[shadow prism]

2 fox, fox and coyote, both new birds and Eurasian wigeon. Maybe more those are what I remember tho

[grim meteor]

we havent seen any photos of the great one fox yet, yeah? only the pheasent?

[midnight moon]

No foxes yet, just the pheasants they showed off

[grim meteor]

got it, thanks! just wanted to make sure i didnt miss them

phesents look phenominal, really looking forward to seeing the fox coats!

[midnight moon]

I'm quite excited, foxes can have some really cool coats

[grim meteor]

yup!! and with how well they did the pheasents i can only imagine the foxes

[midnight moon]

their new animations are awesome too, can't wait to hunt em

cross, silver. def need

[grim meteor]

from the current ingame screens we have pearl is probably my favorite, its way more green then i thought from the name but it looks so good. sapphire and ruby being close behind

[midnight moon]

I just realized a full multiplayer map on salzwiesen. fleeing animals absolutely everywhere

[grim meteor]

there will be no animal left unspotted

[stray basalt]

There’s also the facts an obvious screenshot😭

[stray basalt]

Hirshfelden in Moscow confirmed

[pine lily]

why can't they just

have it be a point popup map

where they set a point or pin for each reserve's actual location

and when you click it it populates the icon and info

like the crowding is so stupid

even things that aren't crowded are in the wrong place

Parque's in the damn ocean

when it should be in north central Argentina along the margins of the Patagonian steppe

[weak smelt]

Rancho in yucatan🙏

Mississippi in florida

[stray basalt]

It’s in Uruguay.

[pine lily]

oh God it is

that's worse

[stray basalt]

My favorite Florida County: Mississippi

[weak smelt]

Hirsch is in ukraine

[pine lily]

hell it's halfway into Russia

Rev is IN russia and its coastal finland

NEM is in goddamned Nova Scotia and its supposed to be Vermont

Salzwiesen is in like, London on the map

and its north Germany

[weak smelt]

Salzwiesen is scotland lmao

[pine lily]

lmao

[stray basalt]

That name is so traditionally Scottish

[quaint lintel]

My OCD is killing me, I'm about lose it and edit a new world map and make a feedback suggestion, this needs to stop lol

[stray basalt]

I've said it before and I'll say it again, change to something like fishing planet

[pine lily]

PLEASE

[lilac needle]

that would be really cool i won’t lie

late to the party but those multimounts are straight gas

finally something to fill up those small circular mounts

[weak smelt]

We need more of those mounts

I have so many small game trophies that i want to display but can't

[stray basalt]

Completely remove plaques tbh

Never liked the look of them

[weak smelt]

The small plaques are only good for birds

[weak smelt]

Foxes and such look terrible on them

[stray basalt]

Much better

[pine lily]

wall mounting turkeys

[stray basalt]

I’d much rather they use a grid system

[quaint lintel]

Or Jurassic world 2

[lilac needle]

we need a new lodge though

with a new aesthetic and better layout

been asking for one for years

[stray basalt]

Hmmm, what looks better🤔

(Hint, image no .1 is better in every way)

Plaques just don’t look good.

[quick grail]

man i kinda wish we had a few more options for male/female mounts, esp the partners in crime one

for the foxes that is

[pine lily]

I think the plaques could work specifically for larger birds like turkeys and , if we ever get any, cranes and swans but grid style with straight to wall mounts would be much better

[kind mulch]

What’s gonna be the best shotgun for pheasant hunting

[stray basalt]

O/u

Semi 20ga

[stray basalt]

Birds are just about the only way it looks decent. I agree

[dusk creek]

I think plaques look good when it fits the animal

The giant plaques make it look bad

And they take up a lot of space

[kind mulch]

Is it a dlc pack

[stray basalt]

Duck and Cover

Pack

[rough tree]

honestly I prefer plaques, they look weird when they're on a wall with nothing
that being said, the plaques in-game are super boring, and it's also hard to get one that looks like it's appropriately sized for the animal you're putting up

[grim meteor]

i like plaques but id like plaque custmization and proper plaque sizing

also that "why not both?" meme

[rough tree]

like how cape buffaloes require a large plaque but barely take up even half of it

[rough tree]

"both is good"

[grim meteor]

i feel like a lot of plaques could hold more animals and am constantly annoyed because a plaque that could hold an animal im trying to place is somehow too small (as i havent memorized where each animal can go yet), in some cases making me put that on plaques that look too big!

[stray basalt]

Yeah it looks good…

If your a 20th century Victorian hunter lol

[rough tree]

then why not give players options? I see no reason to outright remove them when trophies are still put on plaques to this day

give players the option of plaque vs no plaque, make the plaques look better, perhaps different types of plaque designs/shapes/wood types/etc.

[stray basalt]

I don’t disagree with giving the players options.

All of my lodge posts (which include this very feature) have always given the players the option to have either.

[grim meteor]

one of my top wants is being able to choose plaque color, a mela animal on a darker near black wood plaque with good grain would look sooooo good

same with a litgher colored wood and an albino animal

i apprciate the dog in the upcoming update but i reallyyyy hope a lodge rework is top of the list next!

[midnight moon]

Anything with a decent mag and quick follow up

[stray basalt]

Yet another victim for the .375H&H

I’ve gotta check my lion population now

And another!

[pine lily]

absolutely cracked

[vital blaze]

I'm getting 2 G1 Fox and putting them on the multi mount 100%

[midnight moon]

You're ganna leave them for it's release?

[stray basalt]

Yeah

[stray basalt]

New save is going absolutely insane

[lone forge]

I gotcha

[grim meteor]

real!! i find the animal coming straight out of the wall to be a little weird but i could see myself using it in situations still and why some ppl prefer it

[stray basalt]

It’s how most people do it nowadays

[grim meteor]

i dont actually hunt or anything so i wouldnt know, i just prefer the plaque since it looks sleeker / just looks better to me then the animal straight mounted to a plain wall

[lone forge]

Also give us the option to do wall #1241417134832222319 like this

[stray basalt]

Like I haven’t seen a plaque that isn’t old taxidermy or a museum piece in like 20 years

[lone forge]

In Sweden and in germany plaques are very common,

Especially if you taxidermy the animal which is (in my experience) rather rare

[grim meteor]

shrug, game has em and i like em better, not much more to it then that

who cares if ppl dont use em much nowadays, its just a mounting option

[pine lily]

but dont Sweden and Germany usually do skull or skullcap mounts?

imo then a plaque makes sense

[lone forge]

Yes

[stray basalt]

Jesus, looking at mtn lion taxidermy reminds me just how hard it is to do cats.

[pine lily]

provides a nice color contrast with bleached bone

[stray basalt]

Anyways, I’d love Terra mounts

Especially because we have snow leopards

[lone forge]

I also have seen skulls just Beeing hang on nails in some side room

[grim meteor]

yeah more mounting options and being able to customize how theyre laid out in the lodge really is no 1 for me

[midnight moon]

Ooh yes, taxidermy habitats is a need too. I like it looking like a scene

[lone forge]

Usually from super old or dead humans

[stray basalt]

Landscape mounts would be really cool

Especially if you could pick the scene you want to display

Hell if it could fade between biomes….

[grim meteor]

oh also custom multi mounts

[lone forge]

This would be especially needed for things like blue sheep or snow leopards

Having them like they are rn feels so wrong

[stray basalt]

Yeah having tahr or mtn goats feels weird in the lodge atm

[grim meteor]

doing a custom multi with 4 fox g1 and 4 pheasent g1 would be extremely cool

[lone forge]

I mean look at this this would be way better then te current grand slam

[stray basalt]

I can’t be the only one who doesn’t like the current blue sheep horns ingame right?

[grim meteor]

doing a quick search on google i think they look fine

[stray basalt]

They don’t curl down enough imo

The focus should be the angle at which it curls

Not… whatever that is

They were one of my most anticipated species

[stray basalt]

Captive individuals

[lone forge]

Yeah because those usually get older

[grim meteor]

yeah while theres some that do a full curl theres plenty i see with the more sloping horns

[lone forge]

Wild blue sheep have a bunch of stress and die young

[stray basalt]

Give it more rack variations is more what I’m saying

Make it a large version of what’s shown for all I care

I just like the uniqueness of irl blue sheep horns

[grim meteor]

on topic for the channel we're in though, whats the first species on the new map everyone here is going to gun for?

i might actually try and get a G1 pheasent since thyre birds and i can do decoy luring

[stray basalt]

Not buying the map, but I will buy the gun pack.

[lone forge]

Just exploring and then may be ferruginous duck

[grim meteor]

i kinda just accept ill never get a G1 but bird g1s with callers and decoys i feel like i have a good shot

[lone forge]

Also black Grouse

[stray basalt]

Then ducks

And magpie

[lone forge]

Imma kill so many black grouse

I won't buy any of the other dlcs besides the map

[grim meteor]

yeah ill have to look into the gun pack more if i actually need it and im skipping the dog

while the dog is cool and im happy for people who wanted it, i dont really need a pointer in most situations in this game

[stray basalt]

Fun fact:

.375 has more penetration than the .338 and .300WM!

Ingame atleast

Obviously it would irl

[grim meteor]

yeah im kinda waiting for in depth youtube videos on it ^^ ive been wanting EW to do non guns packs lately and im just not all that interested in them because of how many high preforming weapons we already have so itd have to see a pretty big difference to buy it so im just waiting

[stray basalt]

Ron has a fantastic video on it

[grim meteor]

ill have to check it out!

[stray basalt]

One of the best cotw YouTubers atm

[grim meteor]

im just not a gun nut so they need to be good preformance wise since i dont really have a fave irl gun or anything i want to see in game

[stray basalt]

very vocal within his community and the greater cotw community

[inland kite]

Really liked how he hunted each guns starting and ending classes and taking some long shots with the rifles too

[grim meteor]

sounds like its a good video then, will let me really see the full range, thanks for the suggestion!

i do hope alongside hopefully giving us future lodges and lodge reworks they let us move around and custimize gun displays

while im not a big gun enjoyer i do have the cosmetic packs and itd be fun to show them off, but the gun displays are usually just more awkward to me then anything

[inland kite]

I think flinter mentioned this im not sure, but possibly having some cosmetics being unlocked through the upcoming challenges rework would be nice to see, instead of buying them/waiting for EW to release a free festive skin pack each year

[grim meteor]

yeah thatd be fun! though at this point i am just using the new year skins on everything since they are some of my absolute favorites lol

lunar new year that is

not the other ones

[stray basalt]

I really want some wood varnishes that don’t look awkward upon application

Like 90% of them do atm

And some more metals!

[inland kite]

Agreed, trying to find a wood material that doesn't look painted on for my .300 canning and moradi .44 seems almost impossible

[stray basalt]

I will probably pick up the Rancho and Yukon pack though

As a early birthday present alongside the pointer and bolt action pack

I like the reds Rancho brings to the palette

And the Yukon Walnut is just too good to pass up

[inland kite]

But honestly I don't bother that much with pimping my guns cause imo they already look shmexy as hell anyways

[stray basalt]

Yeah I don’t think I did anything to my .300 or my lever action .44 in the previous save

Actually

I made the barrel more silvery

For the .44

[inland kite]

Happy early birthday btw, hoping that pointer and .375 will do wonders on whatever we'll see in summer 2025

[stray basalt]

I have a sinking suspicion it will

Polar bear or walrus

Either way I’m excited

Both👀

[stray basalt]

Thank you!

[outer geyser]

Summer map is very much going to either be Greenland or a artic map. WWR is already a map in classic which would translate perfectly into COTW with some modern updates.

Artic fox, snowshoe hare and Snow goose all would pretty much serve as the smaller game lineup

Caribou and moose could return

Musk ox is pretty much top of many peoples most requested list

Polar bears could be like Tigers. Rarer than other animals and highly agressive

The coast could be home to seals and Walrus which would make the map super unique

Other possible animals could be Gamebirds, Bison, ducks, Wolves

I mean just saying if we ever get a Walrus, I would be super excited

[solid ravine]

I've been seeing walrus around for a bit... To me that's honestly funny. Is it genuinely something people want to go out of their way to shoot?

[outer geyser]

Could be like a snow leopard like animal. Rare and have huge tusk

[subtle saddle]

No not another animal like the snow leopard

I searched for 10 hours straight and found the tracks of 1 lmao

[outer geyser]

I get that lol, Its like two extremes on the same map. Almost every other Yak herd has a 8 or 9 and snow leopards you never see

Lowkey I feel like the new park map looks pretty fun though

A fast paced map with small game sounds like something we not had since RC

[subtle saddle]

Ya I pretty much only like how many yak there r just because of how good they pay but it feels like diamond yak aren’t very special due to how many 9s there r

Ya I honestly like hunting small game but I always get distracted with big game so I kinda like how there’s no big game on the new map

[outer geyser]

Only thing imo which would have made the map is a new gamebird species

As the new ducks looks great, but As someone who loves the grouse and Pheasants, would have been really cool

[cinder orchid]

Does anyone know why the scope becomes significantly smaller on the .300 Fors Elite? (2nd image is the normal size)

[rough tree]

I know in some places people actually hunt walruses, especially Alaska Natives, the Nenets from Russia, etc.

i'm not sure how frequently they're hunted by non-natives, but I'm not opposed to some neat diversity in a hypothetical Arctic map

[quaint lintel]

Good point, report at #1062059141436297246

[brisk mauve]

you can

just that hunts start at 15k and then go up

it can be done any method to

so gamewise its fine

[rough tree]

I never really thought it was a problem lol, I just didn't know how common recreational walrus hunting was

[brisk mauve]

its rare to see thats all

also would you really want to go to the arctic in winter outside of videogames

[jade wyvern]

I

I think the gadwall need a slight coloration change

https://vxtwitter.com/theHunterCOTW/status/1862851634612552101

Mainly just wing coloration

[minor shadow]

There is The Canadian Lynx that could be a Cool new Addition

[weak smelt]

Pretty sure canadian lynx were supposed to be on nem but never got added

[hollow tundra]

Floofy boi

[minor shadow]

Yeee

[minor shadow]

Wait Really?!

[stray basalt]

A lot actually

I could drop a solid 10-14k and hunt walrus

[stray basalt]

Look at their tusks and tell me you wouldn’t want to hunt that

[unkempt oyster]

Is there a new GO coming

[weak smelt]

Two

[unkempt oyster]

Cool what are them

Or is it not public yet

[weak smelt]

Red fox and pheasant

[unkempt oyster]

NAHHH NOT THE FOX

I had a dream about a great one fox couple years back

We even joked about my dreams predicting the future with my friends

[wind stone]

It was bound to happen eventually

[lilac needle]

i hope wild boar come next they deserve a go

[solid ravine]

I wouldn't want to hunt that.

[stray basalt]

Wrong

[dusk creek]

Lots of animals that are cool need a rework

I think link needs a remodel

I think the pigs need a whole rework

[solid ravine]

Bighorn definitely need a rework

[dusky wolf]

I wouldn’t hunt one because of two reasons

1. They would be soo ungodly bizarre inside a trophy lodge, a crocodile I can see being taxidermied but I cannot picture anyone stuffing a walrus or hunting one

2. They freak me out

[night trench]

Maybe they are coming with the summer 2025 map

[minor shadow]

You know, I still think it would be funny if for the winter 2025 map the give us a Amazon Map with Jaguars, Camian, Tapirs, Monkeys Ect

[dusky wolf]

I don’t think it would be a good idea cus given it’s the Amazon it’s roughly 50% dense jungle and 50% river or other waterbodies

Kinda like Mississippi but even more tedious to travel in

[dusk creek]

I also think there are way higher areas of interest before the amazon

[dusky wolf]

I personally want zebras added since they are legal to hunt in lots of places in Africa

They could do like they did with the dogs and get a donkey to motion capture them since donkeys are the closest thing related to donkeys other than horses

[dusk creek]

Amazon is very much a meat hunting focused area or poaching,

Like the only thing ppl would play the map for is jaguars

And maybe black caiman

Id be slightly upset if we got brazil before east or north africa

[dusky wolf]

I also feel that people are kind of wanting to get another Africa map because vurhonga is kind of lacking in species and it’s still a relatively small map that wouldn’t really be able to have lots of other species without it feeling unnaturally cramped

[dusk creek]

I think id be fine if they regularly updated their models, but they arent

[dusky wolf]

I still like vurhonga and I still think it deserves its praises but it does feel a bit lack luster

[dusk creek]

Yeah its aged a lot

[dusky wolf]

It’s aged kind of good and bad at the same time

The hunting has aged great but the animals themselves haven’t

The lions just wow they do not look good ever since we got the tigers

[dusk creek]

And africa is just far more vast in its opportunities, the only thing that matches its level of hype is a canada/greenland type map

[dusky wolf]

They wouldn’t have to really do much with the lions animation wise since they could reuse the tiger rig

[dusk creek]

Grizzlies, brown bears, lions, wolves, pumas

All of these live in the shadow of snow leopard and tiger

[dusky wolf]

I’ve only ever shot one snow leopard to date

They weren’t kidding when they said they’re elusive

I always hear one but I never see them

[dusk creek]

Ye but its far more interesting and executed better compared to mountain lion

[dusky wolf]

I had to wait in a tripod for a leopard to come into a feed zone and it probably was there for a longer period of time before I even noticed it

[dusk creek]

I think salties and grizzlies are the biggest disappointments in terms of ferocity ever since sundar

Like, they can go aggressive

But they take not even a 1/4th of the healthbar, then running

[dusky wolf]

Salties feel very much like wannabe tough guy syndrome

They’ll go up to you aggressively but even a shot with a bow on the ground scares them

[dusk creek]

Grizzlies in particular oml

They could be so hype but they aint

[dusky wolf]

I’ve never been attacked ingame by a grizzly ever

[dusk creek]

Ive only been attacked about 3-4 times

Lion only once

[dusky wolf]

I’ve been attacked by the bloody capercaillies more than a literal grizzly bear

[dusk creek]

Ive been attacked by crocs a bit but they just dont do any damage

0 threat which is insane for austrailia

[dusky wolf]

Yeah

[dusk creek]

The only challenge they bring is getting the geese to land in the swamp

[dusky wolf]

God I hate magpie geese

[dusk creek]

Its crocodiles fault not the magpie

[dusky wolf]

It’s not the hunting part of them even though I think geese should get a nerf in their resilience

It’s just the fact they only spawn in the mangroves which are infested with crocs

[dusk creek]

Yeah

[dusky wolf]

I’d put them up there with stubble quail for insufferable hunting

[dusk creek]

Well the pointer will make it not suck to hunt the small game like that

Magpie geese will always suck tho p sure

[dusky wolf]

The banteng are a bit annoying to hunt given they drink on the coast

But it’s easier to hunt them since they’re slow

[dusk creek]

They make diamond p easy

[dusky wolf]

Banteng are also a disappointment cus they hardly ever go aggressive like they said they would in the species features for emerald coast

They’re also kind of pathetic looking compared to say water buffalo or Cape buffalo

Also I noticed they use the deer track models aswell as the deer poop model instead of the buffalo one

[dusk creek]

I mean

Prey animals arent really gonna go aggressive that often

Cape buffalo are definitely overtuned in that a lot

And ever since all bovids use the buffalo ai

I think they are way too easy to hunt anyways i think theyre too slow and make diamond too easily

[dusky wolf]

The capercaillies could be a bit more aggressive

Mainly cus I find it funny when they do attack you

[dusk creek]

The calercallies?

[dusk creek]

Only if they got rid of the score for killing an aggressive one

Its already a easy diamond

[dusky wolf]

I feel like for birds it doesn’t matter if their easy diamonds given they’re kind of just lodge fillers

[dusk creek]

I disagree

[dusky wolf]

I also hope they don’t make it so we have to shoot grouse in the air with the new flushing rework

[dusk creek]

i think they just dont have enough support when it comes to taxidermy

This update is going to support them alot

[dusky wolf]

As of currently I find pheasant, quail and ptarmigan hunting just downright unpleasant for how they take flight from way to far away and the whole grounding mechanic or gimmick

[dusk creek]

They need a lodge that has room for more smaller multimount stands, and strings to hang birds from

[stray basalt]

Overtuned? They kill 200+ people a year lol

[dusky wolf]

the Cape buffalo really need a remaster cus they look like baked playdoh

[stray basalt]

Banteng go aggressive alot, they are just slow as all hell

They walk so slow in the aggressive state

[dusky wolf]

During my banteng hunts I only ever get like 1 out of every 30 banteng I see to get aggressive

I feel like they made the cattle species less aggressive overall imo

The yaks are probably the most aggressive currently

[stray basalt]

I’ve had like 30 attack me all at once… multiple times just extremely slowly

[dusky wolf]

For it is almost guaranteed to have atleast 1 yak attack

And for the Cape buffalo which are so called the widowmaker they’re pretty skittish

[plucky forge]

have someone catch the g1 fox

[stray basalt]

Cape buffalo ai should be adjusted.

Have them run to the nearest heavy bush

Make them wait for you to run in after them

Then they attack

[dusky wolf]

Also I feel like wildebeest don’t form massive herds anymore like they did a few years ago

[stray basalt]

Ehhh

[dusky wolf]

For me atleast

[stray basalt]

I have quite a few massive herds

[dusk creek]

Theres a lot of ppl on this planet, the aggression rate of buffalo in the game is definitely way higher than irl

Same with virtually every animal in the game for game purposes

Big wild animals kill a lot of people but compared to the actual population of the country they reside in is very low

because domestic animals and mosquitoes are far more deadly technically

And venomous snakes but not as much as the other previously mentioned

[grim meteor]

Idk about needing to changing them but I had 3 Cape buffalo chase me for extremely long across a trek of map as I tracked their larger male herd member and they didn’t even go away when my buddy brought an ATV to try and spook them off

[dusk creek]

I want them to be faster honestly

[grim meteor]

Yeah I kinda just wove circles around them and stuff, it was hard with three of them but I didn’t die iirc

[dusk creek]

Like when i see bovids in this game i know a massacre is about to happen

[grim meteor]

It’s either faster or they need to be able to skid to a stop and do a point turn since their turn radius is I feel a real killer for them, so slow and broad it makes it easy to know how to move around them

[dusk creek]

Yaks are kinda hard but only because of where they live

[dusk creek]

It should honestly be a one and done deal with a very fast charge or headswing

[stray basalt]

Kill the most people in Africa

Slightly less than hippos

More than elephants

[dusk creek]

i think polar bears, brown, and grizzly bears need a faster charge as well

[stray basalt]

More than crocodiles

[grim meteor]

I think their aggression rate isn’t really that out of place but it is a bit wild that an ATV didn’t spook them lol

[dusk creek]

I thought hippo was the most dangerous due to accessibility and unpredictability

If we arent counting mosquitoes and dogs

[dim saffron]

Started the wiki page for Salzwiesen Park

hehehe

[stray basalt]

Nobody counts mosquitos

[dim saffron]

why not

[dusk creek]

Well thats an animal so

[dusk creek]

Because its not as cool simple as

[stray basalt]

Because it’s the disease they carry

[dim saffron]

aight

[dusk creek]

Well yes but the delivery is through the mosquito

Likes domestic dogs with rabies

But even then dogs are a hidden menace

Dogs dont need rabies to kill and they are everywhere

[stray basalt]

Nobody has ever died to a mosquito bite that wasn’t infected with a disease.

[plain cosmos]

In that case we had to count different insects like Tsetse fly

[dim saffron]

put that in quotation mark and add it to your curriculum.

lmao

[dusk creek]

Well duh but its the fact its the mosquito who delivers the bite

Its killed millions

[stray basalt]

Your dodging.

[dusk creek]

No

[stray basalt]

Cape buffalo very much deserve their reputation

.

That’s the end of it

[dusk creek]

I never said that at all

[dim saffron]

Widow maker

Black death

[dusk creek]

i just said its overturned in the game because its a video game

[stray basalt]

To claim that “Theres a lot of ppl on this planet”

Cape buffalo have a reputation for a reason

[dusk creek]

7 billion is a lot of people

200 people to millions is an insane ratio

not saying they dont have a reputation

[grim meteor]

Mosquitos far out number and out range cape though, it’s a bit of an odd compairison

[dim saffron]

humans kill more humans than cape buffalos kill humans

[dusk creek]

So true

[stray basalt]

Why the hell are we still talking about mosquitoes?

This conversation revolves around mammals, MAMMALS.

[dim saffron]

who said that

[dusk creek]

no one

[stray basalt]

There’s 800 million people in rural Africa.

That cuts down on a lot of people

[dusk creek]

He said mosquitoes dont count why would they not

[stray basalt]

Because they aren’t mammals

[dusk creek]

I wasnt talking strictly mammals

[stray basalt]

Then mosquitoes are irrelevant

[dim saffron]

There were no questions asked about "which mammals is the most dangerous or deadliest"

it was animals

[dusk creek]

How is that irrelevant if they are animals

[dim saffron]

so any of them are relevant to the discussion, whether you'd like them to be or not.

[plain cosmos]

Someone was talking about Crocodiles too, and they are also not mammals

[dim saffron]

and another was talking about capercaillies, which also aren't

[stray basalt]

Anyways

[pine lily]

if we wanna be techincal

taxonomically speaking

[stray basalt]

Cape buffalo have a reputation. They certainly live up to it

[dusk creek]

Dont say it

[pine lily]

if we get really stupid simple with it

everything is either a fish or a bug

[dusk creek]

Oh

[dim saffron]

no

[dusk creek]

I would be uspet if you said mosquitoes arent animals i thought that was where that was going

[pine lily]

lmao

nah i reserve that hate for yellowjackets

[molten mortar]

define life/living

[stray basalt]

Well yeah

[dusk creek]

Evolution

[dim saffron]

what is a cephalopod then ?

[pine lily]

anything that is metabolically active and able to respond to external stimuli

[stray basalt]

Yellow jackets were manufactured

[stray basalt]

Meteorite stowaways

[dim saffron]

wut

[stray basalt]

Look into it

It’s a hilarious half serious theory

[dim saffron]

well the Big Bang Theory

[pine lily]

oh yeah the asteroid meme

[dim saffron]

yes, indeed

[pine lily]

about their derived genes being extraterrestrial

[dim saffron]

but that's not what i was asking lol

[dusk creek]

Theres a couple groups of animals that arent fish or bugs

But a huge chunk of animals split from the one ancestor of bugs and fish

[stray basalt]

I honestly believe it tbh

[molten mortar]

not a fish according to goggle

[dim saffron]

i know

Fish exception made of hagfishes and lampreys, have a vertebral column

Cephalopods have a notochord

[pine lily]

any animal thats a head with feet and a mouth i suppose

[dim saffron]

kinda

[pine lily]

and is mostly squishy

[dusk sapphire]

What if we get a plot twist this time around and it's only female Red Fox, that make GO.
Everyone would grind males and would never realise why their grinds don't produce anything.

[plucky forge]

Does anyone know what the new G1 foxes look like?

[grim meteor]

Nope not yet!

Only have the pheasant coats

[plucky forge]

k

[grim meteor]

I assume we might get them soon? Or EW might be letting it be a mystery till people find and post em

[dim saffron]

you could expect cross and silver to be some of them

[dusk sapphire]

As far as I remember that's the case. Community is supposed to find some GO fixes first before EW shows any others if at all.

[dim saffron]

ya

and yoooo

[grim meteor]

Do you have where they said that? That way I can send it to a buddy

[dim saffron]

Raccoon dogs drink from 10-13 in Salzwiesen

[grim meteor]

We’ve both been waiting to see if EW would drop the fox coats lol

[dim saffron]

LET'S GOOO

[plain cosmos]

Ooo

[dusk sapphire]

@grim meteor Might have been in their last stream, not 💯 sure though.

[grim meteor]

I’ll have to look later!

[vale grotto]

I do believe that jaxy said the red fox will not be shown off due to them wanted to the community to find them. (I am pretty sure thats what jaxy said.)

[grim meteor]

Ya I just wanna be able to get the time stamp to be sure so I’ll just make sure to watch the stream!

[lucid parcel]

I think He Said they were gonna Show them one week after Release

[vale grotto]

May I also add nothing G1 related was shown on stream.

[grim meteor]

I’m hoping I have a highish rare fox on my map when I get it

I have a piebald but iirc it’s a lower female

[dusk creek]

Wondering how fast i can chain the point command to see how fast i can find animals

[wind stone]

?

Oh that probably not long cooldown

[dusk creek]

Yeah like

Point, shoot, praise, point, shoot, praise etc

Specifically wonder how far an animal has to be when the dog locks onto it

which will be helpful for the maps with the pesky trophies like rabbits and quail

[wind stone]

It follows scent so depends

Yeah

Rabbits will be a game changer

[dusk creek]

I think all small-mid game its a game changer

Specifically for multiplayer

Like the g1 fox, everyone will be grinding drink zones on emerald prolly

[wind stone]

Or jackals in the forest

[wind stone]

The new map probably will be easier

[dusk creek]

Thankfully thats the only predator diamond i dont have to get cause i found a dime jackal on multiplayer

[abstract bramble]

How much is Salzwiesen gonna cost?

[limber cliff]

No one knows yet

[molten mortar]

im sure the marketing team knows, and maybe steam / other stores internally

[limber cliff]

Yeah... Sure they probably know

but no one who can answer knows

[molten mortar]

true

[dusky wolf]

More than likely the same as the other maps

[limber cliff]

I wouldn't expect that - its not even half the size of a regular map
Would be seriously surprised if its 12$

[stiff hornet]

If I had to guess I’d say somewhere around $3 - $5 USD. It’s approximately 1/3 the size of a regular map, so being about 1/3 the price, or a little bit more, feels right to me

[limber cliff]

I could see 8$ even, max

We are getting the map, 2 gos, and a clay range all in one

[abstract lodge]

10-15 buck i reackon

[stray basalt]

10-15$? That’s like double normal price lol

[weak smelt]

That's more than sundar

[stray basalt]

1. Weapon pack

2. Sundar

3. srp (normal map)

[weak smelt]

5 or 6 bucks probably

[plucky forge]

Hello

[jovial spade]

Gamepass is goated, unfortunately I can't pay for it so I can't play cotw for a while

Stuck with fortnite

[stray basalt]

First pointer hunt👀👀

[hushed topaz]

Didn't even realize it but yeah the pointer will be great for snowies

I've shot literally only one snowie on my new game. Just a random female

[stray basalt]

Jaxy even talked about it on stream

[dim saffron]

I'm at 3

Didn't hunt them much

[stray basalt]

It’ll be kinda like how we hunt mtn lions in there states

[dim saffron]

did kill a mythical scoring 28.56

so it was close

[hushed topaz]

I just don't bother with them unless I see them in the distance. Always end up spooking them trying to climb up the stupid mountains

[dim saffron]

.44 of diamond

The closest i've ever been to harvesting a diamond mythical was with a mountain lion

[hushed topaz]

I'll sneak a good distance towards them and then I get stuck trying to scale a rock and they spook. Or I get attacked by a yak lol

[dim saffron]

38.9

diamond is 39.0

[hushed topaz]

Damn. I just got trolled by a mountain lion yesterday

Dude chased the mule deer I was looking at and got stuck in the water

[dim saffron]

https://tenor.com/view/big-cats-cougar-mountain-lion-gif-14062983

[stray basalt]

It would really help if the snowy mtn’s of Nepal weren’t covered in the loudest bushes known to man

[dim saffron]

ya

[hushed topaz]

Agreed

[dim saffron]

Woolly hares are also freaking loud

[stray basalt]

Because I’m trying to see what level this guy is and he keeps running away(and also complete that stupid mission)

[dim saffron]

they weird

[hushed topaz]

The bushes and the random hills that you need to jump on to climb

[dim saffron]

Sometimes they spook at 170 meters

[stray basalt]

27-29!!!

That’s a trophy in my book

[dim saffron]

and sometimes you don't see them and they are feeding at like 20 meters from you, calm

[hushed topaz]

Sheesh

[dim saffron]

best of luck

[stray basalt]

Might even beat the one I messed up in my previous save

[hushed topaz]

They're either the smartest things in the game or one of the dumbest

[dim saffron]

i'm guessing 29.22

[dim saffron]

yes, indeed

[hushed topaz]

I got within 30m of a level 8 before and shot him as he went to flee

[stray basalt]

8 mythical if it matters, haven’t seen any other 139-165lb estimates.

[dim saffron]

i shot one in a blizzard at 10 meters and 100 m from the northern limit of the reserve

it was an experience

then i got killed by a yak

[stray basalt]

Lol, random max weight tahr track

[hushed topaz]

Mythical snowies can make diamond so it'd matter at least a little

Imagine hunting tahr 😭

[stray basalt]

Oh they can?!?!?

That’s cool

[wind stone]

I saw around 6 on release today I think

[hushed topaz]

It's rare but possible

Mythical tigers can too

[wind stone]

A lot more common too

[hushed topaz]

Idk I've only got one diamond tiger

[stray basalt]

I’ve never even seen a mythical tiger in someone’s trophy screen tbh

[hushed topaz]

I want a male rare

[stray basalt]

I’ve got like 11

[hushed topaz]

How 😭

[stray basalt]

Commercial slaughter

[hushed topaz]

Alr fair enough

[wind stone]

Tigers are so easy

[stray basalt]

To be fair

[hushed topaz]

I've even seen 8 mythical yak make diamond

[stray basalt]

I naturally hunted the diamonds

[wind stone]

Same

[stray basalt]

When they spawned in

[wind stone]

The 3 lake method was insane and I’m sad they nerfed it

[hushed topaz]

I got trolled by 4 yak before getting a diamond and there's people with mythical diamonds out there

[wind stone]

I know someone who got like 11 sr’s in the month it worked

[hushed topaz]

Yeah that's ridiculous 😭

[stray basalt]

Same, I just wanted a 59 scoring tiger

[wind stone]

Not really it was ew’s fault

[stray basalt]

But I ended up with a like 58.7 or something, I’d have to look at the lodge

[hushed topaz]

I never bothered grinding tigers it felt against the point

I found mine and obliterated him with the .470

[wind stone]

The reason they are so easy to get diamonds is because there’s a small pool of scores

[hushed topaz]

Yeah true. I've still only got one but I don't think I've found all of mine so who knows

[wind stone]

All male tigers are gold unless botched

[hushed topaz]

My hearing sucks so tigers are bascially just death sentences to me anyways

[hushed topaz]

I had a lvl 5 silver on my map

[weak smelt]

I got a rare in 4 kills with the tiger grind

Which respawned into a 59.4 diamond

[wind stone]

Oh never saw one

Well the rares have a 2% chance to spawn

[hushed topaz]

He was the only one I found that was below lvl 6

[stray basalt]

My favorite unofficial multimount

Makes you realize just how badly lions need a rework

[hushed topaz]

Need a multimount with a tiger, brown bear and lion

[wind stone]

I put my banteng water buffalo and Cape buffalo there

[hushed topaz]

My main room has nothing in it rn 😭

Filling out the rest of the lodge first

[stray basalt]

It’s my Africa room

I was kinda hoping the next map would be Africa 2.0 in some form pre sundar

And then we got the “Hunt or Be Hunted teaser”

[quasi raven]

Why not grizzly? It's a class higher and plenty bigger

The model is more dated but north american grizzlies are more "iconic" you could say.

[brisk mauve]

they do need a rework

actully that artic map could work for them

the far north does have a place where all three north American bear species live alongside caribou reowrk and musk ox addition

[wind stone]

Multi with all 3 NA bear species would be super cool

[hearty blade]

Im boreddd I want new mapppp lol

[stiff hornet]

And also how the tigers could probably be a bit bigger

[stray basalt]

Lions a little smaller and tigers a little bigger

[stiff hornet]

Yep

[stray basalt]

Just two more days…

[grim meteor]

i want it to be here already!! i love nepal but a lottttt of the animals are Extremely tedious, itll be nice to have a majority lure and decoy map after that

[lone forge]

Any new duck für types known yet

[brave temple]

Mela for gadwall

[lone forge]

Cool

Are they're pics?

[dim saffron]

@glacial flame Hey, how are you doing today ?

Do you know which Great One you will go first ?

I personally think i'm going to go after red fox in Salz and New England

[left jolt]

have fox GO been revealed at all

[glacial flame]

Hey! Just got home. Tired and got a couple videos to make, then I’ll set my game to update to early access and have a nap. I’m going to grind both at the same time on Sal!

[left jolt]

also does anyone have all the pheasant variations

[dim saffron]

Alright ! Glad you came home okay. Can't wait to see your vids. And best of luck for your grind !

[glacial flame]

Thank you so much!!

[dim saffron]

oh wow !

[glacial flame]

I need

[brave temple]

It’s so nice

[vague mesa]

That's awsome ngl

I can just imagine the g1 fox furs.

[vague mesa]

What is your favorite g1 pheasant fur. Just curious.

[dreamy portal]

How good do y’all think the pointers will be

[glacial flame]

Oooh tough one- maybe ruby?? But the sapphire…

[vague mesa]

Same with the ruby.

[glacial flame]

It’s sooooo prettyyyyy

[hollow tundra]

Obsidian or Garnet

[dreamy goblet]

NGL, that pearl one also looks neat.

[dreamy portal]

Sapphire is my favorite

[vague mesa]

Yeah, I like it the most

[vague mesa]

The obsidian and emerald are my top 3, ruby
Is the first

[glacial flame]

I wouldn’t mine citrine either

[vague mesa]

Yeah,

[dusky wolf]

For me the pheasant plumage types are kind of interchangeable

Can only imagine the grinds for one

Like tahr but worse

[next hornet]

What is the price of the new reserve ?

[jade thicket]

no prices yet are known

guessing we will find that out tomorrow or tuesday when they go live

[next hornet]

Ok thank you

[shadow prism]

2 days

[shadow prism]

Prolly 5 per pack maybe 8-12 for the map

[stray basalt]

Are you insane?

#🦡︴cotw-scotland message

Refer to this message

[lucid parcel]

Does someone know If when the Dog flushes a bird will it fly closer to you than spooking it yourself

[stray basalt]

The birds flush towards you

[dim saffron]

Ive seen it

Some people did post mythical diamond tigers here

[brave hamlet]

A brown bear and a grizzly bear are the same thing... 😐

[amber kiln]

No they’re not. Grizzly is a sub species of brown bear. All grizzlies are brown bear but not all brown bears are grizzlies

[quasi raven]

Eurasian brown bears are not the same as alaskan grizzly bears.

[amber kiln]

Grizzlies are the second largest brown bear subspecies so it makes sense for them over brown bears

[quasi raven]

that's like saying a blacktail and a mule deer are the same thing.

[brave hamlet]

ohh, i see what youre saying, lol

my bad

[minor shadow]

I mean, technically, a Grizzly Bear is a type or Species of brown bear….. at this point I think they should just specify brown bear being Eurasian brown bear

[iron drum]

That would honestly be good. With how they differentiate between turkey and elk

[quasi raven]

Sure but it's obviously Eurasian. The two bears are different subspecies, their skulls look a bit different

Grizzly bears are more predatory and are bigger

(grizzly is left, eurasian brown is right)

[night trench]

And they live in very different places ofc

Grizzlies and eurasian brown bears are very different from each other

[weak smelt]

Grizzlies cooler tho

Butt ass model sadly

[jade thicket]

ive got a mythical diamond so yeah they make diamond

[limber cliff]

I forgot to upload this the other day 😂

ohno the edge is roont.

[rough tree]

Further clarification:

• Eurasian Brown Bear (Ursus arctos arctos): the ones we see in Revontuli and Medved
• Grizzly Bear (Ursus arctos horribilis): the ones we see in Yukon

Both are subspecies of the Brown Bear (Ursus arctos). I made a feedback post about this, suggesting that the "Brown Bear" be renamed to "Eurasian Brown Bear," since we also have Roosevelt/Rocky Mountain Elk, or Merriam's/Rio Grande/Eastern Wild Turkeys

[wind stone]

Emerald and Morganite are my favorite

[signal drift]

emerald is really good but i just wish there was more green

like the sapphire has all that blue

[wind stone]

It very well could I just like how it blends though

[stray basalt]

It’s pretty damn green….

[signal drift]

well yeah but i mean i wish it was like the sapphire

[wind stone]

I think they expected it to be bright green

[signal drift]

where the body is basically all green

[signal drift]

yeah the concept art made the body look completely green iirc

[wind stone]

I personally prefer this over the concept

I don’t know why it’s just how it blends

Not too bright not too dull

[signal drift]

it still looks really good 100%

[wind stone]

Morganite is my favorite because of that reason aswell

[signal drift]

pearl is my fav but i literally can’t choose they all look really good

[rough tree]

Sapphire and Obsidian are probably my top picks

Garnet is probably in 3rd

[wind stone]

You like em simple right?

[limber cliff]

We do only see one angle - it could have more green on its back yk?

Like between its wings

[dusky wolf]

Would be nice if we got a pheasant caller in this update ngl lol

[stray basalt]

A pheasant locator would be super useful

[dusky wolf]

More bird callers would be nice in general

[signal drift]

yeah true which would be sick

[dim saffron]

Iberian wolves and gray wolves too

The subspecies on yukon is not the same as in Medved

Irl

[rough tree]

ye, they're all under the species Canis lupus, but there are a ton of subspecies under that species

i think there's 38 as of right now?

[whole kettle]

Ruby os underrated

*is

[stray basalt]

It’s alright

[whole kettle]

🫥

Explain

[midnight moon]

I still really like citrine the most

[whole kettle]

🚪you may GET OUT!!!

[stray basalt]

Garnet and Emerald look better in every way.

[whole kettle]

Garnet got the worst hairline on God's green earth

[stray basalt]

It looks… like a pheasant

[whole kettle]

Fr though 😂

It was my favorite in the concept art, now it just falls flat for me. Too different to the concept art and too similar to other plumage types.

[torn comet]

is there a g1 fox yet

[stray basalt]

Yeah

But we haven’t seen it

[torn comet]

damn it

[whole kettle]

Explain how it's similar to the other plumage types

[stray basalt]

Look at Morganite

[whole kettle]

That's pretty much saying obsidian is like garnet and emerald is like pearl

[stray basalt]

Obsidian and garnet actually have somewhat different color variations

[whole kettle]

So do ruby and morganite

[stray basalt]

Hardly

[wind stone]

I would not be mad with any of these

[whole kettle]

I will say that the heads are the same but that's when the similarity stops

[glossy garnet]

Hey so does the new update come out in the third in Aussie time zones or is the third in a different time zone

[jaunty drum]

Is it bad to say the 450 seems like a worse but also better at the same time 45-70?

[stray basalt]

No

Because that’s .450’a purpose

[jaunty drum]

I think a lot of people were thinking the 450 was gonna be more powerful than the 308 at least, when that's not how powerful the 450 is

but where they put it in game makes sense, in between the 243 and 270, leaning more towards the 243 in power

honestly I woulda put it with the same classes as the caplock round ball with a 150m max zero since the 450 is not flat shooting

nvm on the power wise, it's as powerful as 30-06 and 308, but it's pushing essentially a revolver bullet

[midnight moon]

That's about where it should be

Do we know the class range yet?

[jaunty drum]

4-7

From what's been shown in the early access, it's not gonna be powerful enough for them to bump it to a 4-8 if they get feedback asking for that

It'd make more sense as a 3-7 with a 200m max zero, and the 300/7.62x35mm as a 2-5/6

but they can always adjust it based on feedback

[amber kiln]

They go by UTC time I believe

I don’t know what time it released for that time zone though, but releases are usually 5/6am for EST, so you can convert that into your time and get an idea

[abstract lodge]

keeping the fox quite arnt they

[glossy garnet]

Thx

[jovial jolt]

2 am 4 December AEST my brother

[hearty blade]

[hearty blade]

Okay thank you

I’m in Australia so have to wait longer

😭😭😭

[weak smelt]

it comes out at the same time all over the world

[hearty blade]

No it doesn’t

[weak smelt]

i swear it does

[hearty blade]

For us not

[weak smelt]

Brainfart ig

[languid wedge]

should be around 5am on the 3rd est in the us

so around late evening? for you

[weak smelt]

This is what i meant

Doo doo butt ass wording

[pine lily]

damn thats gonna release at like

3 AM my time

[weak smelt]

Whoops

[stray basalt]

I should really be setting up for duck rn

[weak smelt]

I'll set up on the new map

[languid wedge]

[weak smelt]

As if i didn't say poor wording

Same time as in 3am for me and 7pm for him

Not same time as in 3am for me and 3am for him

[stray basalt]

How many decoys is maximum attraction?

20 or 30

[languid wedge]

20

[stray basalt]

They need to add black grouse decoys asap

[pine lily]

we need decoys for a lot of upland birds ngl

dont think capers or hazels have em either

[stray basalt]

OH Hazels need them the most

Ffs

[pine lily]

for sure

unless they get to be similar to pheasants in the new update

in which case they hunker in place when startled and only flush when you or a dog are like, stepping on them

from what ive heard sometimes they dont jump up until you do step on them IRL lmao

[stray basalt]

We need pheasant locator calls too

Should’ve gotten one with Rancho or NEM

[pine lily]

im shocked we dont have one when we have a raccoon squall caller

and a hazel grouse caller

also ought to have a locator and box for capers too

[stray basalt]

Have that

I don’t think it works though

[pine lily]

ah so it may as well not exist, noted lol

[stray basalt]

Or atleast that’s what I heard from Janny

[stray basalt]

Basically yeah

[pine lily]

wouldnt be shocked, think ive used it a few times to no avail

always drive hunted hazels

[glad nacelle]

What’s Janny saying

[pine lily]

found my MW/MS 450 male by complete accident lmao

flushed back towards me and I was like "oh cool"

[stray basalt]

Hazel grouse caller doesn’t work

[pine lily]

and bopped it with the 10GA lever

[stray basalt]

It was awhile ago

[glad nacelle]

It does but doesn’t it’s confusing

[pine lily]

and the i picked it up and its my first and only dime hazel as a max score lol

[weak smelt]

Max weight estimate hazels just don't exist

[glad nacelle]

It’s great for making birds sit still so I can run up to them

[weak smelt]

Have only found one on my map and it was tiny

[glad nacelle]

But it doesn’t necessarily ‘call’ them in

[glad nacelle]

There everywhere

Idk how you don’t find them

There a favorite of mine to shoot

[weak smelt]

Max weight estimates?

[glad nacelle]

I’m excited for the new map

[pine lily]

of all the hazels ive hunted my MS/MW is my only dime and it's the only MW/MS I personally know of

as in am aware of the exact circumstances etc

ik there's been others
