[inland kite]

Hell yeah

[pine lily]

damn

[lone forge]

Mostly the population on Rottnest island because they have no predators

[inland kite]

Odd how some drink only at the eastern facing sides of some lakes 😂

[vivid cosmos]

Hi I think that message is from 4 hours ago

[lone forge]

Hi

[vivid cosmos]

Actually 7

[lone forge]

Cool

[finite wagon]

Hi janny

[lone forge]

Hi

[hearty blade]

Will we be getting any more trailers before the release?

[vivid cosmos]

Just the release trailer

At release

[hearty blade]

Dang

I’m so hyped for this map

[vivid cosmos]

Hss to be the most useless trailer ever, we all storm the beaches of the new reserve and watch those trailers as back sound

[hearty blade]

Will there be any

I forgot

What I was gonna say

Dammit

[inland kite]

😂

[hearty blade]

😭

I REMEBER IG

REMEMBER IT

Is this map gonna be literally all just snow? Since we have pronghorn will we see any grassy or something fields?

[pine lily]

yeah there's fields

and open meadows

snowy but still open

[hearty blade]

it’s all just snow 😭

I want a bit of colour

[vivid cosmos]

yeah grassy fields that got snowed over

[hearty blade]

o

[pine lily]

plenty of color, mainly with trees and rivers/lakes

also the grass itself in its winter colors

that tannish color

[hearty blade]

True

[vivid cosmos]

like this

the Sunsets and mountains look very colorful

[hearty blade]

Wow

I just really hope that

OMGAH

J FORGIT

AGSIN BRO

PMO

[vivid cosmos]

my brother are you OK?

[pine lily]

bro are you okay lmao

[cinder flame]

I can’t wait to just football kick this guy

[hearty blade]

I STILL FORGET IT

BR

[vivid cosmos]

probably it would inflate its throat sacks if you kick it

[hearty blade]

Wait

This isn’t the thing I forgot but

Do we know

If we will be getting any great ones

[pine lily]

yes

[vivid cosmos]

yes a new one

[pine lily]

one

[hearty blade]

Or will they surprise us at real ease

Release

[pine lily]

prolly mule deer

[hearty blade]

WHAT

WHAT INE

[cinder flame]

Yes it’s mule deer I think I heard from a source

[vivid cosmos]

we will get surprised by what it is

[cinder flame]

But idk

I’m just a dude

[hearty blade]

I’m hoping it’s mule deer

[cinder flame]

I’m just here to drink beer and shoot stuff 🤷🏻‍♂️

[hearty blade]

Personally, I think they missed on a opportunity to add Wolverine, grizzlies and Canadian Lynx

[vivid cosmos]

nice

that´s me at the range

[cinder flame]

Ya at the very least grizzlies

[hearty blade]

Yep

[finite wagon]

Gougars too

[gray reef]

its cave lion

[hearty blade]

[stray basalt]

When did they share this😍

[hearty blade]

lone

Pls 🙏

[gray reef]

gay cougars rock

[hearty blade]

I’m filing a harassment order on u bro

[finite wagon]

I just say gougars because im silly and full of whimsy

[vivid cosmos]

morning Viv gave it to us

[gray reef]

okay cave lion denier

[pine lily]

its a dope dusky grouse model ngl

[vivid cosmos]

it´s... very realistic

[abstract echo]

Surely thered be traps right

[gray reef]

more dope then i snorted an hour ago

[random merlin]

anyone know when early access starts for this map?

[vivid cosmos]

i just saw a guy posting feedback cause the pintail beak looks short

we don´t have the species yet

[gray reef]

when you respect the women in your life amen

[finite wagon]

Where did that come from

[gray reef]

northern pintail 🥀 reread the list

[random merlin]

what 😭

[vivid cosmos]

wait

i know

[gray reef]

yuh

[vivid cosmos]

i meant its not in the game yet

and people are already asking for remodels

it's crazy

[finite wagon]

Only a few more zones to check

Where is this damn dime ar

[gray reef]

ar?

[vivid cosmos]

Automatic Rifle diamond?

[stray basalt]

He ain’t wrong

[finite wagon]

At

[vivid cosmos]

its a duck... the beak is not the important part

[gray reef]

WRONG

[stray basalt]

It’s a defining characteristic of pintails

[vivid cosmos]

he aint wrong but it's a weird nitpick

[vivid cosmos]

definitely what they are known for obviously

[gray reef]

maybe the definitive feature of the pintail... might be its teeth... not the tail

[hybrid hawk]

Great one news?

[warm imp]

I would say the most important characteristic is what they are named after. You know, the tail

[gray reef]

sorry liam 😭

[vivid cosmos]

anyway I think it was removed

[stray basalt]

Are we incapable of reading?

A

A

[finite wagon]

GOD i hope the great one is wolf

[stray basalt]

Meaning among multiple other characteristics

[finite wagon]

Itd be so peak

[gray reef]

unc i failed 5th grade

[stray basalt]

1. Tail
2. Colorations
3. Distinctly long beak

[hybrid hawk]

I hope the opposite

[vivid cosmos]

It's still a weird nitpick

[stray basalt]

Not really

[gray reef]

wait what is its color again

[stray basalt]

Like

Rusty brown

[gray reef]

hello bman

[amber kiln]

Beak is definitely a defining feature of pintails. Iconic beak

[inland kite]

I hope its none of those and its the beaver 😈

[finite wagon]

Ofc the guy who shepherds sheep would say this

Boooo

[gray reef]

rusty brown

[pine lily]

it is at least the right color and shape for the beak

[gray reef]

nerd ah

[vivid cosmos]

its not really one of its defining characteristics its just a characteristic

[pine lily]

just a bit short

[gray reef]

yk what else is a bit short

my temper

AHFHAHSFHASHF

HAF}ASF

[stray basalt]

when I see a pintail with a short beak

[pine lily]

ima nickname you mild steel cause of that

[finite wagon]

Yoi know what else is short

[pine lily]

turning that into a badg pun

[finite wagon]

A rats lifespan

[gray reef]

shawty id be dead then

[agile cradle]

daily sharing this one here now btw

[finite wagon]

Watch out for dudes with guns bro

[gray reef]

EEK EEK EEK EEK SQUEL SQUEEL

[vivid cosmos]

and actually watching the pictures the guy posted seems like the least of the issues of the model, model is real bad

[gray reef]

been there done that

[vivid cosmos]

animation is real bad

[agile cradle]

lmao

[finite wagon]

WHERE IS THIS DIAMOND BISON

[amber kiln]

Beak looks normal length. Duck head is clearly turned to the side a bit

[inland kite]

Maybe the diamond bison was the friends we made along the way 🤓

[gray reef]

fine to me

[vivid cosmos]

I was trying to get Liam to defend the model but yeah

[midnight spoke]

Aww look its a chibi pintail

[gray reef]

[finite wagon]

OH HELLO

WE WERE JUST TALKING ABOUT YOU

Time for you to go night night

[gray reef]

you cant add woodland caribou and leave yukons caribou as caribou. literally turkey 2.0

[vivid cosmos]

She means that since the new caribou is Woodland the Yukon should be renamed after the subspecie Grants caribou

[finite wagon]

God this guy is beautiful

[vivid cosmos]

[gray reef]

i love leu caribou the most outta the four rares but pie close second

[vivid cosmos]

leu Caribou, i don't remember those

[gray reef]

[pine lily]

true

[finite wagon]

THESE ANIMALS ARE SO FUNNY

[lone forge]

Don't know why, but they always remind me of Holstein cows 😂

[vivid cosmos]

[inland kite]

It shouldn't be that funny 😂

[finite wagon]

i want this guy killed

clean shot

[gray reef]

GET GOOD 🥶

[gray reef]

crazy to think if we never got wood bison plains bison would still have a decent model

[vivid cosmos]

@sharp ginkgo I can help a bit lets go to #🦌︴help-and-tips

[sharp ginkgo]

what map is that on?

[finite wagon]

[vivid cosmos]

Alaska

[gray reef]

napal

[stray basalt]

[gray reef]

alaska is NOT a country

[vivid cosmos]

Napal isnt either

[inland kite]

I'm starting to lose it over lesbotron 😂

[gray reef]

NERD

[finite wagon]

Im almost 20 years old btw

And full of joy and whimsy

[vivid cosmos]

[shadow panther]

,,Napal”

[gray reef]

jajajajaja

[finite wagon]

GOOD NEWS

THE GUY HAS BEEN SHOT

[sharp ginkgo]

my best is a gold:(

[finite wagon]

Im still looking for that lvl 5

[sharp ginkgo]

i wound like that

[inland kite]

No as in I'm laughing wayy too much at something that shouldn't be as funny

[vivid cosmos]

just keep hunting, and shoot as many males as you can

[stray basalt]

Classic 7mm w

[sharp ginkgo]

where do you find that?

[finite wagon]

I know lol i agree its funnier than it rlly should be

[inland kite]

I gotta take a break before my lungs give out 😂

[vivid cosmos]

Bison? you gotta buy the DLC

[stray basalt]

Nobody seems to be acknowledging the fact we got proper snow

Perfect for tracking

RDR2 has a similar thing

[pine lily]

and also the prongbois in that same shot ACTUALLY LOOKING GOOD

[sharp ginkgo]

what number is thar?

[stray basalt]

I don’t really notice anything

There’s a giant bush blocking the way

[vivid cosmos]

we had something similar in grass since i remember in Cotw

[finite wagon]

WHERE

IS

THIS

BISON

[vivid cosmos]

the animals also leave a track in grass

snow is more flashy tho

[stray basalt]

I guess they are kinda different

[vivid cosmos]

and probably lasts for longer

[stray basalt]

Dudes a unit

[pine lily]

immensely, actually properly colored and dont look like playdough anymore

[pine lily]

mf built like if hulk hogan ate a fridge and then got eaten by a bank vault

[vivid cosmos]

they have the ears

[sharp ginkgo]

what is that animal

[inland kite]

Kingpin

[sharp ginkgo]

on the left?

?

[inland kite]

Mule deer I believe

[weak smelt]

oh my lord i just saw SRP's trailer

[stray basalt]

It’s a muley

Yes

[sharp ginkgo]

ok thanks

[scarlet bluff]

the new elk also look fat

[weak smelt]

WHY DIDN'T WE GET THIS

[sharp ginkgo]

cool contry

sight

[stray basalt]

The mule deer really are the highlight of the update imo

[stray basalt]

I’m not sure if 30-30 is getting it’s dues so I’m going to be patient on that front but man

[humble tinsel]

bighorn

[stray basalt]

Those mule deer

[vivid cosmos]

the mouse wasn't smooth at all

[stray basalt]

I guess I just don’t hunt them enough

And they’ll look weird on Rancho

[humble tinsel]

no one hunts rancho

[vivid cosmos]

I think nobody really hunts them that much cause they look weird in every map

[finite wagon]

Hey I love rancho

[stray basalt]

I hunt Rancho

[sharp ginkgo]

where is that ?

?

[finite wagon]

Im gonna go there later for a blue bobcat

Mexico

[humble tinsel]

i have one

[vivid cosmos]

Rancho will have massive improvements with the remodels tbh

[stray basalt]

I want one so bad but my small predator luck is so terrible except for my one gray fox

[vivid cosmos]

Rancho was number 1 for GO grinding for a long while

[sharp ginkgo]

where did you find that?

?

[finite wagon]

I have a blue somewhere

[stray basalt]

Dawg

ON MY MAP

[finite wagon]

I just want a mela coyote to go with that

[stray basalt]

The maps are randomized

My map and your map are completely different

[vivid cosmos]

hes very new, very young and somehow he ended up in the most confusing chat of the server lol

[sharp ginkgo]

what map?\

?

?

[finite wagon]

Mississippi

[sharp ginkgo]

?

[finite wagon]

The gator one

[stray basalt]

Mississippi Acres

[sharp ginkgo]

?

[stray basalt]

Not the best for new players

[sharp ginkgo]

ok thanks

ok

[vivid cosmos]

we don't have red head ducks we should have red head ducks in mississipi maybe

[digital quartz]

Factual statement

[vivid cosmos]

you are the texan that said was spanish

[finite wagon]

Rancho is underrated imo

Its stunning

I love rancho

Very pretty

[sharp ginkgo]

maby

[stray basalt]

Nah.

Mallard, wood duck, gadwall, and pintails

[digital quartz]

Overrated*

[sharp ginkgo]

maby

[stray basalt]

Red heads are more of a northern thing

Like Layton

[potent jungle]

rancho hate is so forced

[pine lily]

very underrated

[stray basalt]

Or Yukon

[finite wagon]

Literally how

Its always at the bottom of peoples tier lists

[pine lily]

only people who hate it just dont like having to slow down imo

[stray basalt]

I have one huge problem with Rancho

[potent jungle]

whats that

[vivid cosmos]

really? Ive seen some here in Mexico

[humble tinsel]

rightly so

[stray basalt]

We can’t utilize the mountains

[potent jungle]

fair

[gray reef]

everything

[stray basalt]

It’s completely cut off from us

[digital quartz]

1. The lakes
2. The topography
3. The foliage

[potent jungle]

but ill hunt rancho any day over sunderpatan

[midnight moon]

Rancho is just a dull map

[stray basalt]

The topography wouldn’t be that bad if they’d have just expanded on the mountains

But instead they cut out solid chunk of the map for no reason.

[finite wagon]

Alr im gonna look for a blue bobcat now

[stray basalt]

Crossbow
Crossbow
Crossbow
Crossbow

[potent jungle]

i have one but i shot it with the 300 on accident lmao

[inland kite]

What do you have against sundarpatan???

[potent jungle]

still cool

[finite wagon]

Aint got space in my inventory for all that

[potent jungle]

honestly hot take i dont like it for running and gunning

[midnight moon]

Skill issue probably

[digital quartz]

It's sundarpatan

[potent jungle]

nooooo

im skilled i promise

[stray basalt]

Mountains

Or the lack thereof

[inland kite]

Think its the tigers 😂

[midnight moon]

You just said you don't like it for run n gun lol

[potent jungle]

yeah i dont

person prefrence

[digital quartz]

I don't like the tahr

[sharp ginkgo]

i do but i dont

[potent jungle]

and this

[midnight moon]

Lol

[digital quartz]

TrollVI not calling me Trollus😱

[inland kite]

I've been jumped by them multiple times, yet I still like going out and hunting for them (if they aren't already hunting me)

[pine lily]

I duel them with dangerous game rifles

[midnight moon]

Wtf? You change your name more than a woman changes their mind

[pine lily]

they want smoke they get the smoke

[digital quartz]

Tyk did it

[potent jungle]

tbh i do like the tigers but im not sure really what it is that makes me not really love the map. like its solid but not my top 10, i do like snow leopard hunting though

[midnight moon]

Sunar isn't as good as advertised tbh

[inland kite]

Yeah, jokes aside, its your own personal preference at the end of the day 🤷‍♂️

[potent jungle]

fr

[potent jungle]

yep

i like the water buff hunting its goood in sundar

[midnight moon]

The snow leopards are good

[finite wagon]

I need blue bobcat so bad

[potent jungle]

agreed

[inland kite]

Yeah, love it when I suddenly get an aggressive one charging me

[midnight moon]

Tigers are too few

[finite wagon]

Its what made me get cotw in the first place

[potent jungle]

opening day i got a MASSIVE intial spawn water buff like crazy high

i dont remember the exact score though

[sharp ginkgo]

water buff oh my god

where do you find them?

?

[pine lily]

christ, theyre on Sundarpatan

[finite wagon]

Parque fernando (south american) and sundarpatan (nepal)

[inland kite]

Was a bit skeptical about parque, but after going on my friends map and getting two piebalds on the same day, gotta say, its not bad

[finite wagon]

Me love cinnamon teals

[pine lily]

Cinnamon Toast Crunch

[potent jungle]

thats me with yukon, went on my map for the first time (after i reset my account) and got 4 diamonds 1 rare in one day

[sharp ginkgo]

sroy

[inland kite]

Literally had the same kind of luck when the .375 h&h came out, got what I think a diamond bison, 2 diamond moose, a diamond caribou, and a piebald caribou

[potent jungle]

dayummmm

is it bad i've reset my account 4 times

[inland kite]

Hoping for that same kind of luck when Askiy drops

[finite wagon]

They should KILL that dark grey fur type for wolves

I hate it

[potent jungle]

FRRRR

[finite wagon]

It should be common

Idgaf

[inland kite]

I don't really notice the difference between it and regular grey

[finite wagon]

Grey and dark grey are like garchomp and shiny garchomp

[royal cliff]

Okay so I'm doing some loadout testing, and I think I have what I want for Alberta

[inland kite]

That or the grey and albino furs for mountain lion/puma/cougar/whatever the hell you wanna call it

[royal cliff]

.303, colt .45, and 10ga

[pine lily]

or, alternatively

MAKE GREY A RARE LIKE IT IS IRL

CAUSE A COLOR MORPH THATS ONLY ONE EVERY 3000 BIRTHS ISNT COMMON

[inland kite]

Thinking about running my current one: bow, 22-250, 450, 375

[gray reef]

ducks so gun

[royal cliff]

I only carry two large guns with me and a sidearm

[inland kite]

Would like to swap one gun out for either, a pistol (which I think is what I'll do) or a shotgun

[inland kite]

I always like carrying a bow with me incase theres multiple animals nearby and I don't wanna spook them, or if the hunting pressures getting too high

[stray basalt]

Piebald mallards in the big 2025😔

[stray basalt]

This is the way to go

[potent quartz]

Can't wait to see the new wolf fur variants

[stray basalt]

We’ve seen a few

Phenomenal

Fantastic

Ecstatic

[potent quartz]

Yeah the rares are gonna look amazing

[stray basalt]

I didn’t even think about the rares tbh

😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

[forest sandal]

Hello everybody, salut les frenchis vous dormez ? XD

[potent quartz]

It is getting late where I am

[stray basalt]

It’s really late for me

[potent quartz]

It's 1:10

In morning

[gray reef]

2 i think

[fierce topaz]

It's a very good map in concept just ew kinda fumbled with species
A couple backfills can be a simple fix I love rancho and don't get the hate around it

[pine lily]

it largely suffers cause up to this point its big draw big game animals (pronghorn, bighorn, muleys) had absolutely ass models

[fierce topaz]

Plains bison would be a nice backfill to rancho imo
Could also add a couple upland birds and waterfowl due to Mexico being plentiful for both

[lone forge]

One thing I noticed is that none of the snow geese so far were of the blue colour morph, this could be by choice but I really hope that blue is s common/uncommon plumage for them

[pine lily]

with a remodel, and also mtn lion with a remodel and rework to be intermediate between snow leopards and tigers

like 20 per map

[pine lily]

same, would be nice

[pine lily]

a few grouse or similar birds would be great

doves too

[fierce topaz]

Doves especially rancho deserves something to give it more life and the love it deserves

[lone forge]

Quail would be fine af for rancho

There's quit a few species down there

[pine lily]

it would also be amazing to have some more small game like prairie dogs

[pine lily]

quail as well

[lone forge]

I like the choice of woodland caribou but im still unsure on the rack, it looks a little to dark

[gray reef]

yes

[pine lily]

i should add, if we assume 19 species as a max, Rancho has room for 9 more species

[vivid cosmos]

Moctezuma quail for rancho would be 🔥

And aoudad

[fierce topaz]

Do montezuma quail even reach that far up?

I thought they were only in the southern parts

[vivid cosmos]

They reach texas

[pine lily]

subspeciate the bighorn, whitetail, and mule deer too imo

[fierce topaz]

Not where rancho is tho

[pine lily]

would be amazing to do coues WT and desert muley/bighorn

[pine lily]

rancho's in the state of Sonora in mexico

[vivid cosmos]

No, rancho is a bit west

[fierce topaz]

That's what I'm saying do montezuma quail reach sonora

[gray reef]

just 9 cougars (older latino women ready to take me)

[pine lily]

slightly northwest for moctezumas right

[pine lily]

hush

[vivid cosmos]

Actually no, they do live in sonora

[pine lily]

oh nice

[fierce topaz]

I've heard of gambels, bobwhites and scaled quail up there never of montezuma

[vivid cosmos]

Anyways any of those would be fine, and dove

[stray basalt]

I don’t like that head position

[fierce topaz]

Bison wouldn't be a bad choice either for a larger species

[stray basalt]

And their neck still does an s curve

Just concave

[stray basalt]

Plains bison and black bear would be sick

Mtn lion too

[vivid cosmos]

No bison in sonora currently, they were reintroduced in other places but not in sonora

[pine lily]

https://mmo.bookthehunt.com/hunts/823

[stray basalt]

There’s free range bison hunts in Sonora right now

90% success rate ain’t bad

[vivid cosmos]

Cool, rancho is a closed ranch so it would work

[stray basalt]

Also completely scrap whitetail

[pine lily]

subspeciate

give coues

[stray basalt]

Coues deer supremacy!

[vivid cosmos]

Mexican government should really put the effort they put on the bison on bighorn sheep, aoudad has displaced a ton of bighorn populations

[pine lily]

lord

thats not good

[vivid cosmos]

Aye anyways

Gn

[static tree]

was it only me or did the trailer give me goosebumbs

[pine lily]

twas very exciting

[static tree]

was so good

[stray basalt]

The soundtrack is incredible

[static tree]

yees

[stray basalt]

Arguably their best reserve theme yet

[static tree]

yes

[pine lily]

gives me goosebumps like SRP's did

ngl

[stray basalt]

I’ve always wondered

What is that instrument

I’m guessing a fiddle?

[pine lily]

sounds like it

[gray reef]

of coues youd say this

[finite wagon]

Its always the snow maps that get really good themes

Medved, yukon

Tho vurhonga and te awaora are also rlly good and none of those are snow maps so

[stray basalt]

I really dig sundarpatan

[pine lily]

te partly counts cause it has snowpack on the peaks

[stray basalt]

When EW

???

[pine lily]

give

[shadow panther]

Hmmm…

[pine lily]

wouldnt be out of character, G1 tahr got leaked in an email last year lmao

[shadow panther]

Don’t know if its real

[stray basalt]

Uh oh…

[finite wagon]

NOOOOO

Well

[pine lily]

its from a gaming news journal article with no sources so validity is suspect

but

[lone forge]

Where found

[pine lily]

given the preference for antlered animals

its possible

[finite wagon]

At least the people got what they want

i really wanted wolf ngl

[stray basalt]

Yeah, I was going to say that doesn’t look like EW’s work

[finite wagon]

Love mulies but im not too excited abt g1 mule deer 🤷‍♂️

[stray basalt]

It’s still possible

[lone forge]

I'm pro mule deer, love them gut what's your source

[stray basalt]

Although…

I have seen some game journals provide shots we weren’t even show

Like of the snow goose.

[pine lily]

true, so its very possible

[shadow panther]

I hope its fake I really want wolf go

[finite wagon]

I want wolf great one too but if its mule deer then so be it!

[pine lily]

me want the deer

[static harness]

Another night grind sounds miserable tho bro plus mule deer will go crazy if they’re done right

[pine lily]

well actually i want both but if forced to choose i went deer

[finite wagon]

I just woudnt grind for that personally, i think mulies are stunning enough as the base, i cant really think of any great one possibilities thatd improve em for me ngl

[gray reef]

def fake.... im ew inside

[shadow panther]

But mule would be alright too

[finite wagon]

The neat thing with wolves is that you dont gotta JUST hunt them at their drink zones

Sometimes they just

Come to you

[static harness]

Lmao that very true

[finite wagon]

Which tbf you only wanna shoot the males when its a great one but im different i like to shoot both

Female rares have more use for me

[finite wagon]

Yea im not all about those super crazy racks

I like a big typical more than anything

[finite wagon]

Cant get better than a diamond mule deer for me.

Yea like that!

Diamond would be similar enough tho, no?

[finite wagon]

Plus, we dont have a great one that can go agg.. ohh wait bears and moose

Well i mean

The difference between wolves and moose/bear is that they HUNT you

Id love to see a great one that actually hunts you

Idk just me tho

[pine lily]

might be more about spread

a sorta super burris could work

[stray basalt]

I might end up hunting exclusively mule deer till December…

[pine lily]

like this but with extra forks and more spread

[stray basalt]

Chonk

[pine lily]

chonk

[gray reef]

snowby

[finite wagon]

Imagine you're grinding wolf for the g1 but then you get bored and decide to hunt other stuff

Meanwhile the freshly spawned g1 wolf is hunting YOU!!

[stray basalt]

And then a great one snow goose pecks your eyes out and feasts upon you

[pine lily]

🪿

[pine lily]

i sense liam is happy lol

[stray basalt]

I am

[gray reef]

HELP pissy baby behavior

[stray basalt]

Where do you think EW’s priorities lie?

[gray reef]

in making... the game... and good maps... while... prioritizing remodeling species... and new unique mechanics...

[stray basalt]

Ehhh

They’ll prioritize anything other than grizzlies

But it is a business after all

[jovial spade]

Yo gng, I'm running for Junior mayor in my city council

[gray reef]

sure hope 🥀 wolves 🥀 mule deer 🥀 and caribou totes dont need it more

[stray basalt]

Hell yeah!

[jovial spade]

I'll ban school

Jk

[stray basalt]

We don’t even know if the caribou (Yukon) model got reworked.

It’s a new subspecies on Alberta

[jovial spade]

Grizzly bear looks like a teddy bear 💔🥀

[gray reef]

why wouldnt they 💔 🥀

[stray basalt]

Money

Laziness

[gray reef]

and wolves looked worse 😍

[stray basalt]

Any number of reasons really

[gray reef]

sorry 7 remastered species aint enough for liam

or close to that

[stray basalt]

I didn’t say that

[gray reef]

then why are you complaining over ew (brains on pz srry)

[stray basalt]

I described exactly why

[jovial spade]

Low-key would've preferred another grouse and waterfowl species over pronghorn and mallard

I'd like Canada lynx

[stray basalt]

Wolverine would’ve been awesome

[gray reef]

sybau

[stray basalt]

Beaver and Wolverine would’ve been two REAL new species.

The likes we’ve yet to see ingame

[stray basalt]

Holy yap

[last crater]

There are a like a lot of grizzlies in Alberta I have no idea why didn't have them two bear species would have been awesome

[stray basalt]

Laziness tbh

[amber kiln]

Not everything is laziness btw

[gray reef]

me when literally no one is ever happy with anything in this game ever:

[stray basalt]

Laziness tbh

[stray basalt]

I constantly celebrate this game

I literally play it daily

[gray reef]

yap lord

[last crater]

Oh no I think it will be my favorite map all the species are awesome it's just weird there's no grizzlies

[stray basalt]

This

100%

[midnight valve]

Also! weird thing, caribou cannot be hunted in alberta.

Like

Its super illegal

[amber kiln]

Same with snow leopards

[gray reef]

same with gribbly

[stray basalt]

They made it legal very recently

[last schooner]

cough cough nepal

I don't think the Devs care about legality anymore

[jovial spade]

Oh my

[glacial oasis]

I wouldnt say laziness

All the remodels take work too

Especially given how good they look now

[stray basalt]

This has been asked for years.

[glacial oasis]

They take about just as much work as a new species if their ai changes

[glacial oasis]

And so have remodels.....

Im sure i dont speak just for myself when i say i am very pleased with the wolves

The canids and felids were the biggest issue for me and it is nice to see them improving as they go

[stray basalt]

I think there’s a confusion because I’m talking about remodels (rework) and you seem to think I’m not?

[glacial oasis]

Wym??

Ik you are

But take it as we get them

Is what i mean

[amber kiln]

The devs don’t just bow to us. They do what they see for their vision of the game, plus what the community chooses in surveys. Grizzly remodels will come eventually (hopefully) whenever the devs feel confident in them

[glacial oasis]

^^

[stray basalt]

I never implied such a thing

[amber kiln]

“Laziness tbh”

[glacial oasis]

At the end of the day the wolves won the poll

[gray reef]

liam still yapping

[gray reef]

too many god damn furries in this server

[stray basalt]

There comes a point where you can only do so many North American maps.

[glacial oasis]

Im sure every old animal will eventually get its remodel

[glacial oasis]

No one said this is the last tho

They probably still have something more for us

[stray basalt]

This would’ve been easily solved if communication wasn’t at an all time low.

[stray basalt]

Didn’t say that either.

[glacial oasis]

So you're bothered by the lack of grizzly rework?

[stray basalt]

Im mostly bothered by a lack of communication

[glacial oasis]

How would communication have changed that

[gray reef]

is it?

no streams but thats it

[amber kiln]

Other than no streams? The CMs have been more active than ever

[stray basalt]

Not really

[glacial oasis]

Liam tho like

How would have communication have changed anything

They already set their sights on wolves and stuff

[last crater]

I think there can only be one more north American map and it's like whiterime ridge but in cotw

[glacial oasis]

They WOULD HAVE set their sights on wolves for a long time

[stray basalt]

You keep talking about wolves as if I came for their honor

I love the wolf remodel

[glacial oasis]

Yeah but you're talking about the lack of grizzly remodeling

You say they are lazy

When they are far from it

[gray reef]

copied my reply smg

[glacial oasis]

But now communication is the issue..

[stray basalt]

It has been my main point

There is no “now” it has been

[glacial oasis]

So what communication would you like

[stray basalt]

So you think they handled it to the best of their ability?

Good god

[glacial oasis]

Handled what

The animal roster no i dont think so

[stray basalt]

Everything between the species list and the bear emojis (those in particular seemed to get many between general, feedback, and other social platforms hyped)

Everything

[glacial oasis]

The bear emojis?

😭 😭

[stray basalt]

There’s no way you think this release was handled better than previous

Even NEM was better than that

But alas,

[gray reef]

yup someones gone off the deep end

[stray basalt]

I’m not coming for your wolves

[stray basalt]

Can you like

[glacial oasis]

Idk what to tell you liam

[stray basalt]

Shut up for 5 minutes

[stray basalt]

Don’t gotta tell me nothing

It’s all good

[gray reef]

i was gone for 5 minutes silly

[glacial oasis]

All i can day is the map is fine dawg

[stray basalt]

Not long enough😔

🙏🙏🙏

[glacial oasis]

I aint seen no bear emojis but i can agree that would be some bumass bait lmao

[last crater]

This release was still fire despite no streams the teasers were really cool

[glacial oasis]

Im sure one day we'll get remodels of each old animal

[glacial oasis]

Maniacal ragebait

[last crater]

That's what we need tbh especially on the base maps like Rosie's and Black tails

[midnight valve]

I cant really see that happening unless there featured on another map or have a great one, COTW has pretty much not did free content since the games first year of release.

(besides true-racs)

[glacial oasis]

They look fine compared to vurhonga animals

[glacial oasis]

Backfills can be a thing idk

[midnight valve]

There's no point too update say blacktail If they wont be featured on another map or have a great one Its not really how EW works.

[stray basalt]

Yeah… EW doesn’t really do free (which is totally fair)

[glacial oasis]

This map has 19 animals who says they cant backfill other maps to have around the same numbee

[midnight valve]

I'm sure they WILL get a G1 eventually so they probably will, but still there's many species that direly need TLC's that probably wont.

[glacial oasis]

Just a speculation but yea

[last crater]

True vurhonga needs it more the species are cool but I don't hunt there anymore cuz they look so nad

[midnight valve]

At least vurhonga we know africa 2.0 Is in there sights, and several of vurhongas species will feature on it at least

[glacial oasis]

I find it diffucult to hunt on vurhonga... the only real issue i have with the game is that they flatout handled vurhonga terribly

[stray basalt]

We seem to get a lot of conflicting info when it comes to this topic which confounds me.

How do y’all put it?

[midnight valve]

Vurhonga Is one of those maps that needed 12-18 animals.

[glacial oasis]

The landscape looks fine for where its set

[stray basalt]

Your “Roman Empire”

[glacial oasis]

But the animal roster is off

So little animals

[midnight valve]

Pretty sure they confirmed another africa map will be the last they release (likely)

[last crater]

Hope that's the second map this year

[stray basalt]

It was supposed to be “Botswana”

[glacial oasis]

???? Where

[stray basalt]

That’s where it gets conflicting

[glacial oasis]

LMAO WHAT

[gray reef]

probaly in africa

[glacial oasis]

Mf im asking WHERE THEY CONFIRMED IT

[midnight valve]

Regardless, Its gonna be one of the last few we can at least decipher that.

[stray basalt]

Note the date

[glacial oasis]

Where are you getting this bro

[midnight valve]

A while ago, couldnt tell you where now I think it might of been when aus released.

[gray reef]

maybe in africa idk

[glacial oasis]

Ill kill you

[midnight valve]

(as there was a huge uproar it wasnt africa)

[glacial oasis]

It would be MANIACAL of them to not do at least 2-3 more african maps

There is so much money in african hunting

[stray basalt]

😙😙😙

[bleak ether]

Last… why?!

[gray reef]

mmmm waterfoul hunting slaps. im officailly a duck goon

[glacial oasis]

I honest to god doubt theyd be stupid enough to only give us one more africa map

[glacial oasis]

Botswana is crazy

Vurhonga's literally on the mozambique-south africa border

[stray basalt]

Botswana, the notoriously swampy, flat country

I think Vurhonga is even described as “East African” in its bio

[glacial oasis]

Very odd but strong feeling the devs dont know a thing about africa

[stray basalt]

I could be wrong though

[glacial oasis]

Man what

[last crater]

Two African maps would be sick but I doubt it would happen

[glacial oasis]

Sure give us 3 subspecies of elk but not several new african antelope species

I doubt they're that dumb

[last crater]

Honestly don't know how many more maps we could even get other than like jungle south America and like Africa

[stray basalt]

While appearing to have what appears to be a very poor attempt at the Drakensburg Range or Eastern Cape

[stray basalt]

Uh

[glacial oasis]

They can do many maps for africa

Karoo, namibia, kenya/tanzania

[gray reef]

lesser kudu

[glacial oasis]

They can do a proper south african map featuring most of our biomes

Fynbos, karoo, nama-karoo etc

[last crater]

I don't think they will but it would be awesome

[glossy garnet]

I hope those caribou don’t troll loads

[glacial oasis]

Yea lmao

[last crater]

They probably will😭

[midnight valve]

I might be bias but I still want a UK map, but ideally that idea flew away like 3 years ago.

They've slowly added more and more maps that have the deer species that would feature on it, so Its kind of a null idea now.

[stray basalt]

Patagonia 2.0
Amazon
Yucatán
Atlas Mountains
Africa 2-5
Pakistan
Tajikistan
Amur Krai
Kamchatka
Iran
Caucasus

[glacial oasis]

At this point the uk mao would just be filler for an inbetween map

[glacial oasis]

Amazon is off limits bro 😭

[midnight valve]

Pretty much what I wouldnt mind, we could do with a "filler" map that isnt north american.

[glacial oasis]

Its just too dense to be practical

[stray basalt]

And that’s just off the top of my head

[stray basalt]

Suriname has some legal hunting

[midnight valve]

6 deer species on one map, with your typical european species would be neat.

[glacial oasis]

Not that

[midnight valve]

and obviously waterfowl.

[glossy garnet]

You know what we still need, trurac wildebeest that’s the only one we don’t have

[glacial oasis]

The fact that theres like no open fields

[stray basalt]

And it’s not as dense in a many areas

[glacial oasis]

"Not as" is still pretty dense for the amazon

[midnight valve]

I find it funny they got too vurhonga and just like stopped doing trueracs lol

[stray basalt]

Hunting clear cuts

“Savanna”

[glacial oasis]

So deforested area

Or what

Man these devs better make at least 2 more africa maps dawg

Its a shame we dont have impala

Or african leopards

Or baboons

[stray basalt]

as if they can’t do a mix of both?

Would tie in fantastically into a theoretical story

[limber cliff]

Did they though?

[midnight valve]

Wildebeast still dont have any

[glacial oasis]

100% sure the species in the amazon avoid those open fields

[limber cliff]

I was under the impression new species loaded with TruRacs and they remake older species to get it later on

[glacial oasis]

BECAUSE they are amazonian rainforest animals

This is why habitat destruction is an issue for them

[midnight valve]

Yes, new species get them but there's still old species without them

[glacial oasis]

Their habitat is the dense forest

[midnight valve]

they've been doing vurhonga for the better part of 2, maybe even 2 1/2 years.

[limber cliff]

Like the springboks got them last time etc

I think it depends on what's their roster

Springbok got them and also the EuroBison, which are two totally different maps

[glacial oasis]

Maybe we just need to have more faith in the devs

Money talks and theres a lot of money in africa

How many tens of thousands of americans want to hunt the exotic animals of africa

When they're stuck with boring old brown deer

[gray reef]

like 2 years ago

[midnight valve]

As much as I want to agree you would be surprised at how many americans pretty much only want to hunt the eviroment they've grown up in

there's a reason they do filler NA maps each year

[glacial oasis]

Almost if not just as much as african environment

[limber cliff]

Yes? Im just saying it looks like they do remodels and add TruRac to them when applicable- wherever the chosen species lands on their roadmap

[midnight valve]

Despite being the least workload there probably there most profitiable maps.

[limber cliff]

Also lowkey, hoping for TruMane when it's Lions time to shine

[midnight valve]

Not really, I want africa dont get me wrong but americans are.... weird too.

[stray basalt]

Shy of like NEM

[midnight valve]

NEM was a big ol flop.

[last crater]

Yea I love all the north American maps other than Mississippi cuz I'm from America lmao but africa would still be awesome

[glacial oasis]

Im south african and i personally love a lot of the american maps cause its an environment i dont know

[midnight valve]

But at least previous filler maps gave us new unique things over one!! duck species basically.

[stray basalt]

When are we TruMuscle for the Roos🙏

[gray reef]

NEM is goated

[glacial oasis]

But i would be the first to buy the new african maps

[last crater]

New England was the worst literally nothing new but the map is super pretty

[glacial oasis]

And many others would too

EW likes adding odd species

Add bushbuck

Bush pigs

[stray basalt]

It’s really unfortunate because New Hampshire could’ve had so many important small game species

[glacial oasis]

Klipspringers

Duikers...

[glacial oasis]

See

[limber cliff]

Agreed, some awesome waterfowl moments were missed for NEM

[stray basalt]

Two words:

Spiral Slam

[last schooner]

beaver

[glacial oasis]

God eland are huge

[limber cliff]

Well, yes
But I was speaking strictly bird.

[stray basalt]

Spruce grouse

[limber cliff]

Ruffed grouse

Chukar

Partridge

[glacial oasis]

So many african maps....

[last crater]

I still want the north American sheep slam and turkey slam with Osceola turkeys the spiral slam looks amazing too

[limber cliff]

Quail
Eider
Wood Duck

[stray basalt]

I’m surprised EW didn’t try and tap into Coastal New England at all

[glacial oasis]

Nile crocodile, vervet monkeys, yellow/olive/chacma baboons, bush buck, klipspringer, steenbok, african leopard, impala, nyala, waterbuck, nile lechwe, plains zebra, caracal, blesbuck, hartebeest, topi, sable antelope, ostrich, helmeted/vulturine guinea fowl, greater kudu, spur-winged goose, egyptian goose, bush pig, common duiker, giant/common eland

So much they can do

Spurfowl too

Hyraxes

Springhare

Black backed jackals

And black wildebeest

I always found black wildebeest horns to be more formidable than blue wildebeest ones

[lone forge]

Ruffed grouse
Spruce grouse
Woodcock

Wood duck
Hooded merganser
American black duck
Greater scaup
Lesser scaup
American wigeon

Greater white fronted goose
Snow goose
Ross goose
Cackling goose

If it had a shore, eiders, scoters, brant and oldquaw would have been amazing and what new england is famous for

[glacial oasis]

Zebra super rare furtype 😋

[last crater]

North American salweizen would be fire

[lone forge]

Two words

Ida ho3

[last crater]

There's a bunch of waterfowl in Idaho?

I genuinely don't know I don't really hunt waterfowl irl

[glacial oasis]

@gray reef listen to stomach book

[gray reef]

I like about 50% of their stuff overall not bad

[glacial oasis]

good

[static tree]

rah

[limber cliff]

Given the location names of some of the spots (Franconia) it's really like 2, or slightly under 2 hours from the coast - so while I adore the map because it's my home, I will admit they fully missed some good marks.

[gray reef]

sun god

[glacial oasis]

eye of ra

[static tree]

ew when u goona add to me imto the game

[glossy garnet]

Did they ever do Cape buffalo?

I’m pretty sure everything else in game has truracs

[last crater]

Wildebeast don't either

Warthog need tru tusks too

[glossy garnet]

Yeah

[glacial oasis]

everything on vurhonga needs a rework

the animals and their ai

[last goblet]

The map costs €12 on the Xbox Store 🥲

[glacial oasis]

yeah all maps will since sundarpatan

[last schooner]

yikes

the bare minimum if that is the case is they lower the price of sundarpatan

[glacial oasis]

what?

inflation's a thing

bills need to be paid

[last schooner]

i dont wanna be paying 18aud per map

[glacial oasis]

food needs to be eaten

[last schooner]

yeah, my bills

my pay doesnt go up with inflation

[midnight valve]

I'm not sure if they confirmed all maps will be 12 onwards, I know the reason for sundar was the complex AI behind tigers and the amount of development went into it.

[glacial oasis]

then dont buy the maps??????

LMAOOO

[last schooner]

guess i wont be

[midnight valve]

Nice thing about COTW there's no reason to buy a map If you dont want it, MP exists.

[glacial oasis]

wait what is salz's price

[last schooner]

i dont see how the clown isnt the fact that were expected to pay more for stuff out of thin air without being paid more ourselves

[midnight valve]

Pretty sure cheaper.

[last schooner]

cheaper then sundarp but thats because its barely half a map

[raven sigil]

Thats kinda false tho

[last schooner]

its only like 3km by 3km

[glacial oasis]

hm okay

[raven sigil]

Salz is 6£

[glacial oasis]

word by mouth told me all maps since sundar will be 12 dollars

[midnight valve]

£5.89 for Salz & £9.99 for Sunder

[glacial oasis]

cause of inflation

which makes sense

[raven sigil]

I think its just the size and ammount of work they put into it cuz salz obv not as much work

[last schooner]

i guess our wages dont make sense

[raven sigil]

They released salz adter sundarpatan lil bro

[glacial oasis]

and i assume sundar is 12 DOLLAR?

[glacial oasis]

i know but im saying big maps
