hold on

[brazen kestrel]

Has anyone done the story missions yet?

[dusk sapphire]

Yeah, but be sure to have the subtitles on.
The voice actor is awesome.

[unborn parcel]

i'm currently doing them

[brazen kestrel]

How far are you into the story?

[tawny elm]

is a black pine martin rare?

[unborn parcel]

i've done 5 main missions

i think there are 8

[brazen kestrel]

Oh are you at a mission that says find the missing child?

[unborn parcel]

yea there is a mission like that

[brazen kestrel]

Have you done that one yet

[tawny elm]

is a black pine martin rare

[scarlet bluff]

black fur type is not rare for them

[tawny elm]

Okej

[unborn parcel]

sorry, i said wrong, i'm at the fourth story mission, not the fifth
but ik there is a mission with finding a missing child
U having problems with the mission?

[brazen kestrel]

Ohhh your good and yes I’m having some problems with it

[unborn parcel]

well, im almost finished with the fourth one, so when i go to the fifth one, ill see if i get the same problem, and if i dont, ill help you

[brazen kestrel]

You might but I’m not sure because there is only 3 things to do on it and I finished all 3 but the mission is still inaction and so apparently I missed her saying something to me at the end so I’m just stuck but if you get to it and figure it out I guess just ping me if you can

[unborn parcel]

will do 👍

[brazen kestrel]

Thank you

[dusk sapphire]

Has the .243 been nerfed?
Never had struggles with quartering shots before, but now it doesn't punch through to the lungs anymore. 👀

[spark pine]

so cool! i need to see my g1 on the rock now!

[terse grove]

[tawdry juniper]

[tawdry juniper]

[terse grove]

[tawdry juniper]

no way you disagree with me

[terse grove]

LMAO

[tawdry juniper]

[terse grove]

HOW LONG HAS THIS BEEN A THING

[tawdry juniper]

the face?

[terse grove]

yeah

i havent seen it on the old model

[tawdry juniper]

forever im pretty sure

[terse grove]

iberian wolves dont have it

[tawdry juniper]

it looked scary LOL

[tawdry juniper]

subtle wolf flex

money spreading on me

i only have 3

[terse grove]

not rlly i dont have any srs

[tawdry juniper]

and an egg white

[terse grove]

i see poeple get sr all the time on grinds

[tawdry juniper]

i dont grind i get my diamonds ORGANICALLY (getting attacked)

[terse grove]

ignore the botched eggy

[terse grove]

pretty much lol

[tawdry juniper]

wolves having TWO common furs instead of one is a game changer

[terse grove]

38.96 and 38.99 are trolls
idk where the 38.99 is

oh i botched him

[tawdry juniper]

i love predator hunting but half of them look like dookie (puma... coyote)

[terse grove]

yeah...

[tawdry juniper]

wolf remodel had me dancing around my house

[tawdry juniper]

oh coyotes my poor baby

you could have been so beautiful...

[terse grove]

they look like humans in fur

[tawdry juniper]

clutched the hell outta him for NOTHING

[terse grove]

the front legs

[terse grove]

ive been trolled twice both initials the only dime i have is from layton mission

[tawdry juniper]

hey i think ive joined you in MP a couple times lol

[terse grove]

have you

whats ur username

[tawdry juniper]

frith

[terse grove]

uhh

[tawdry juniper]

your user seems familiar but i could be tripping

[terse grove]

the only time i remember actually communicating with someone was on askiy when someone wanted me to put a tent down near an outpost

[tawdry juniper]

also i dont expect you to remember me cause i dont pay attention to who's in the lobby half the time either

[terse grove]

i kick everyone if i get host

so you probably remember from that

LMAO

[tawdry juniper]

hahaha maybe

[terse grove]

i only kick if i was already the only one in the server tho

[tawdry juniper]

i was praying for coyotes on askiy so hard so they could get a remodel

alas...

[terse grove]

yeah they can 100% fit on askiy

[tawdry juniper]

its okay askiy still goated

[tired sparrow]

Hey, everyone enjoying Scotland :)?

[terse grove]

yeah

[tawdry juniper]

yess!!

[terse grove]

i have i got my first red fox diamond and two rare female roe deer (mela and pie, also both firsts)!

[tawdry juniper]

i just need a diamond mink to have chaos syndicate already

or a diamond roe for buck and brock

whichever happens first honestly

[terse grove]

-# i vertebraed both the rares but its fine since theyre female

[tawdry juniper]

nobody has to know...

i cant believe im saying this but scotland kinda has me wanting to bust out the crossbow

[terse grove]

i got 4 hours sleep okay

i fell asleep at 1 (map came out at 2 am) and woke up at 5 then laid in bed for a while after getting the dlc bc i was tired

[tawdry juniper]

which has cobwebs on it because i hate it and it's betrayed me too many times

but theres so much open ground

[terse grove]

lmao real

[tawdry juniper]

and the reason i suck at the crossbow is that i use it from a tree stand

and i cant figure out how to compensate for the elevation with it lmao

[terse grove]

give saseka more small plaques!!!!!!!

[tawdry juniper]

TRUEEEEEEEEEEE

only reason i havent packed up and hauled ass to saseka to be honest

does it have any?

[terse grove]

theres so much room for them and i have too many duck diamonds for the extra small platforms and the THREE small plaques

[tawdry juniper]

spring creek reigns supreme for bird hunters

[terse grove]

im tired

yeah i had spring kgrkekc manor but i cannot be bothered setting up four different loges

lodges

[dusky locust]

Anyone know what rarity fur " Purple Grey " is for wild boar in Scotland?

[terse grove]

idk if its rare or very rare but it is rare

[tawdry juniper]

proud of this wall still

all diamonds except the pie axis

[terse grove]

sika deer racks are silly i love them

t a l l

[unborn parcel]

i was trolled today by a supposed diamond sika deer...0.2 points from diamond 🥲

[terse grove]

😭

i have a troll from ta but other than that two dimes

[unborn parcel]

yea i got 2 dim sika deer

suprisingly, i do not have a single diamond boar

[terse grove]

i dont either, only uh

feral pig also from ta

[tawdry juniper]

i dont have any diamond pigs except for my SR peccary which technically is not a pig

[unborn parcel]

i think i'm gonna try to get the boar g1
suprisingly not alot of eating zones for boar on the new map, so i hope the grind will be easy

[unborn parcel]

lol

[tawdry juniper]

You gonna do feeders?

[unborn parcel]

yep

[tawdry juniper]

Hell yeah

Sounds fun

[humble fjord]

I feel like saseka has too little small plaques, spring creek has too many

[unborn parcel]

yea, I think scarecrow did a vid about it
looks easy, so ill give it a try lol

[tawdry juniper]

I will not be grinding anything for my own sanity but i wish everyone an easy grind

[eager patrol]

Yeah just tried to move everything to spring creek and there's just not enough space for all my big things/multimounts

Back to Saseka

[terse grove]

thats why i used to have two, spring creek for smalls (1-2 and maybe some 3 i forgot) and saseka for the rest

[humble fjord]

Literally did the same thing like an hour ago lol

And spring creek is super cramped anyway

[tawdry juniper]

I picked spring creek cause it seemed easier to fill up which was my ultimate goal and then the number of small plaques inadvertently turned me into a bird hunter lol

[humble fjord]

I think I'll just redo my saseka lodge to look different than it did before

I like bird hunting but I have so many big game trophies it's just not gonna work out sadly

[eager patrol]

Legit

Not leaving behind my breadwinner I spent ages getting

[terse grove]

look at this ugly little guy on the left

[humble fjord]

Oh that too, no XXL floor mounts in spring creek

[humble fjord]

Don't talk crap he's doing his best :(

[slate hound]

Theres talk that the new update broke diamonds somehow?

[humble fjord]

Musk deer definitely need a rework tho

[humble fjord]

Stubble quail and magpie goose make diamond when they shouldn't

[topaz charm]

yeah there scoring is broken rn

stubbles max at 3 but are going way higher than that

[humble fjord]

This is like whitetail all over again when the great ones dropped 😭

[terse grove]

LMAOO

[ebon hare]

Is the scoring messed up everywhere or just scotland?

[terse grove]

just on emerald coast

for the two birds

[humble fjord]

Everything works as intended on scotland

Btw this map is so beautiful, especially the small creek/river south of the map 🤩

[ebon hare]

You guys liking scotland? Im bent on getting it

[terse grove]

loving it

ive been in my lodge for the past 2 hours tho

designing .... takes time...

[slate hound]

Did a bit of hunting before bed, tbh it’s a knock out park so far

[terse grove]

solid snake

[humble fjord]

It's so good!!

[slate hound]

Pretty landscapes, unique animals

[humble fjord]

Good running and gunning map

[terse grove]

yeah definitely

[humble fjord]

I don't feel like I just need to check drink zones

[terse grove]

thats why i like vurhonga and a few other maps but mainly vurhonga

you can see stuff well enough to be able to hunt just as well if not better in rest/feed than at drink zones

[ebon hare]

Ok im convinced haha

[terse grove]

;,ap

[humble fjord]

I just choose a time and head to the mountains

[terse grove]

this was meant to say lmao

[humble fjord]

I have the pointer with me too, it's pretty good for this map

[terse grove]

ur kidding me

wait huh

i thought i only had

oh i

put that in my diamond multimount lmao

[viscid jolt]

how i felt reading this (the folklore of the Cat Sìth is pretty intertwined with the "Grimalkin")

grimalkin mention.. in my cotw!!!

[terse grove]

sithis

[ebon hare]

The base game is 2$ on steam right now and all the weapon packs are 1.79$

[tawdry juniper]

CAPITALIZE

[ebon hare]

So naturally I had to get a bunch haha

[tawdry juniper]

yeah thats an amazing deal

[terse grove]

MAN h

his horns are clipping

[tawdry juniper]

hes just too badass

[viscid jolt]

sources are pretty scarce but they can be either interlinked or interchangeable, some theorise they're both the same creature from how many similarities there are between em and their presentation

[ebon hare]

Ok I just got scotland any laodout recs? I was thinking a .22, the quist, 30.06, and a shotty with birdshot

[terse grove]

shotty with birdshot fo sho

idk what else i just bring the same loadout everywhere but salz

[tawdry juniper]

you can kinda do without the .22 imo but i have essentially the same other than that

i have a bow instead of the .22 cause i like the stealth

surprisingly good cover for a map that's like 70% open

[short ibex]

Inaccuract spotted

Sky isnt quite grumpy enough while raining

Too blue

[ebon hare]

Just saw BLOT wildcamping up here

[unborn parcel]

||imo, the story missions for the new map were a bit boring||

[tired sparrow]

Thanks for your feedback! Is there a reserve that has missions you like?

[unborn parcel]

silver ridge, yukon, sunderpatan, cautro colinas

they had great missions

[split sedge]

say that again...

[agile cradle]

i'm just sad we had no Badens

[unborn parcel]

yea

[terse grove]

cuatro had great mission

i love cuatros

[ebon hare]

HAGGIS

[unborn parcel]

yea even rancho had good missions

[final sierra]

How's it goin

[unborn parcel]

idk if others agree, but to me, the story missions play a great deal in making a map great quality

[tired sparrow]

What do you want to see in them?

I focused more on legends and myths and things for this one

[terse grove]

i miss the mission animals but i understand that the g1s and stuff have kinda replaced them now lol
I haven't done main quest yet but I adore the woman and im looking forward to seeing what the missions are like

[agile cradle]

hey vivi have the beta testing emails gone out in full??

[short ibex]

30-06 is very effective against boars hawt damn

Terrible shot from the rear and it still gets into a lung

[ebon hare]

Just got to the castle... that sells it so far haha im in love

[agile cradle]

i personally just like seeing longer stories with a mix of folk storytelling alongside something major happening on the reserve like a Baden doing Baden things

[zealous lance]

is this girl rare?

[short ibex]

I got lost in it

[zealous lance]

i have no idea but it looks cool

[terse grove]

yes

[zealous lance]

Nice :D

[tawdry juniper]

uh oh

[zealous lance]

I Thought it already but needed confirmation lol

[tawdry juniper]

i think i saw one of these

i thought it was a brown LOL

[zealous lance]

is there already a species info chart?

[agile cradle]

the meeps clear all animals in this game

[zealous lance]

like with all of the fur variants and drink times?

[terse grove]

not that i know of but ery is a rare on all animals so

[tawdry juniper]

not to use the gif again but

[tawdry juniper]

https://tenor.com/view/it's-peent-it's-peak-peent-american-woodcock-dancing-gif-10433837234690747103

[zealous lance]

Nice to know thanks

[agile cradle]

i'll peent you in a sec👹

its meep to me

[tawdry juniper]

oh no i wasn't correcting you

the original gif says "its peak" LOL

peent and meep are interchangable

[dry mural]

Anyone else having problems with the haggis mission?

[tawdry juniper]

regional dialect one could argue

[agile cradle]

im still devastated that roadrunners do not in fact say "meep meep" and accelerate at 200mph from standstill

[viscid jolt]

i refuse to believe this

[agile cradle]

eurasian meep and american peent

[tawdry juniper]

trueee

whatever im american

that thang peents

[agile cradle]

i was in shock when i found out, had to call a doctor and everything ☹️

[ebon hare]

Is there any difference between the zarza .22 shadow and the predator?

[viscid jolt]

Mmm no

[dry mural]

What it looks like

[viscid jolt]

There’s two variants of each zarza

[viscid jolt]

Yep that true

[short ibex]

First animal I saw was a Woodcock

Absolute cinema

[terse grove]

sorry for image spam

lodge is all lodged up 1/2 i have more photos incoming

blank spaces are bc this is for dimes/g1s/sr only, rares are in another lodge

[short ibex]

Didnt shoot it cos I had a shotgun and it was beyond 100 meters

[terse grove]

sorry not sorry LOL

[agile cradle]

i cant be certain but im almost sure the first sighting you get of a woodcock is scripted into the path you walk to the first lookout

[short ibex]

Interesting

[viscid jolt]

OOHH I’ve gotta pop my diamond goat in my lodge

[short ibex]

Like the whitetail when u start the game

[terse grove]

i ran up the hill and the game didnt count it

for the quest

[silver temple]

Did anyone facing unable to retrieve individual trophies from multimount after this update?

[barren granite]

Anyone else having the issue where vegetation isn’t loading right in binos? It’s like blocky and low quality

[terse grove]

2/2 sorry for spam again

I have lots of bird trophies but i am NOT taking screenshots of all of those

[tawdry juniper]

is that claw and order in the first pic?

[terse grove]

what

[tawdry juniper]

the multimount with the grouse in the middle

[terse grove]

no

[tawdry juniper]

or i think its a grouse

i dont have my glasses 😭😭

[austere wigeon]

I did NOT remember you have a g1 moose

😭

[tawdry juniper]

oh thats right theres that one too

[abstract bramble]

I think so

chat is this girl a rare? her neck is white

ignore the pie in the corner

[terse grove]

pie

LMFAO

you have two pies

[austere wigeon]

Yeah that’s the second variant for females

[abstract bramble]

oh nice!

and I just shot a nice gold albino roe buck

new map treating me good

[final sierra]

All emails are out!

[limber cliff]

have you been answered yet

(I just got home from dog walk)

[short ibex]

Scotland is great and I've only gone about 1.5ks

Tyk lives

[limber cliff]

I am unsure how

have about 4 hours fo sleep under my belt

I would like 4 more but its unlikely

[short ibex]

Yikes, you good?

[limber cliff]

yes 🫠

[twin ridge]

I never really small game hunt or use shotguns in general in this game so shooting these woodcocks has been quite challenging

[terse grove]

me too

[short ibex]

Im gonna try get a 2nd outpost and experience the GTAO update too (I think thats out today?)

[twin ridge]

But in saying that it’s making me want to go out on sals and rev more to go bird hunting

[twin ridge]

GTAO still gets updates wow 😮

[short ibex]

Shocking right

12 year old game

(Spoilers, It only gets WORSE)

[twin ridge]

I just would have thought they would funnel all their effort into gta 6 now

[short ibex]

Basically a lifeline for GTAO until GTA6 releases

[viscid jolt]

has anyone been able to have their photo of port whisky registered for the photo quest? i've taken over 20 and none of them have registered

[final sierra]

Are people who don't usually hunt small game enjoying the challenge on the new Scotland animals?

[limber cliff]

The shotgun makes it pleasant

[short ibex]

Pleasant for Pheasants?

[limber cliff]

-# BLAMBLAM

[short ibex]

BAGPIPES RAAAAAH

[twin ridge]

I sure am. As I said before I hardly ever use shotguns or hunt small game at all. But I have been having a lot of fun with these woodcocks and pheasants. I haven’t seen any mink or the other new species but so far I am having fun.

Those darn woodcocks are hard to see and shoot though ahah

[viscid jolt]

girl register

[humble fjord]

What mission do you have to complete to unlock the new 12g btw?

[final sierra]

MEEP MEEP

[ocean mortar]

Its a challenge when you cant even spot the mfs 😭 woodcock or mink or marten

[lone forge]

Not to flex on you BUT I had 0 hours of sleep tonight. Cotw all the way, I've come to regret this decision. If this headache isn't away until tomorrow I am screwed because I am writing one of my math finals

[viscid jolt]

ur driving me nuts

[twin ridge]

It makes me want to hunt more on Salswiesen and Revontuli (idk if I spelt them correctly) for more bird and small game hunting.

[final sierra]

For the love of god please sleep

[limber cliff]

See, I'm ancient and am expected to function for a bday party this evening

[ocean mortar]

I think the way the woodcocks hide away before fleeing is cute

[limber cliff]

I had to make myself go bedg earlier

[terse grove]

im 18 and i cant pull allnighters properly anymore

im already an ancient soul

LMAO

[lone forge]

Your map is so good that I can't 😌

[terse grove]

i havent done one in years i just fall asleep

[limber cliff]

It gets both easier and worse/MUCH harder when you hit 62

[short ibex]

Real

[terse grove]

i forgot about the stubbins

[terse grove]

i dont believe youre 62

i refuse to believe that

you are younger than that 😭

[twin ridge]

Is Vivi a dev ?

[ocean mortar]

Can we get the psychology behind this why do all nighters become at least 4× more difficult after turning 18

[final sierra]

Tyk is 107 I've seen her irl

[lone forge]

It's in the mindset and the right drinks, I reccomend mate and doing a short dance workout every 3-4 hours

[terse grove]

LMAO

[short ibex]

Crazy

[final sierra]

Yes (community manager)

[terse grove]

read that as mate as in friend/you know and got very confused

[lone forge]

No wait you are 62?

I thought you was like 30 😭

[twin ridge]

I am sorry I am not really sure what a community manager is but that is AWSOME you get to work for an amazing company

[lone forge]

No like the tea(ish) drink from South America 🧉

[terse grove]

yeah i realised what u meant after a moment

i've always wanted to try mate

it seems yim yum

[viscid jolt]

okay i took a photo of the wheelie bins and it worked. okay

[unborn parcel]

so you give EW info on what the community would like to see?

[viscid jolt]

the community is managed

[final sierra]

It's okay most people don't

[limber cliff]

It's all botox at this point.
and being a lil pudgy helps -

[short ibex]

Sika Deer are so fluffy now

[viscid jolt]

aside from me i am ungoverned and unmanageable

[terse grove]

this tbh

WAIIIIT

[short ibex]

I call nonsense, this cannot be true

You are NOT 62 😭

[terse grove]

nvm im just going insane

[ocean mortar]

Love that no one believes bro is 62

[limber cliff]

What do you mean :C

[ocean mortar]

I don't either fr

[short ibex]

You do NOT look that old

[limber cliff]

that's my graduation photo

it's why it's in black and white

[twin ridge]

It’s good moisturiser

[short ibex]

Interestings

Morning

[terse grove]

i snorted at that

[limber cliff]

Sweet dreams~

[analog sorrel]

mornin peeps lol

[lone forge]

Is is yim yam

[analog sorrel]

that message was half from last night lmao

[final sierra]

Yess I do a lot of other things but some of my job is monitoring what the community wants and using that to influence how we create future content etc.

[short ibex]

The urge to nonesense post is strong

Give me embed perms and I will be fighting the urge to post memes 🥀🥀

[terse grove]

giv africa 2.0/j
idc what maps come out tbh as long as they keep being as great as they have been

[lone forge]

😂 😂

[final sierra]

What's Africa 2.0? /j

[terse grove]

LMAO

i know you guys know about it

[unborn parcel]

can i send u a dm? Its about my thoughts on story missions

[final sierra]

Boi do we ever

[minor cobalt]

the most wanted map hahaha

[agile cradle]

damn i either didnt get in or i entered my email wrong🥹

[analog sorrel]

Vivi can you pass on my hugest thanks to the whole team this is now my fav map of all time. its so beautiful and perfect in all ways. all the animals are stunning and its the first map iv ever been on that iv spent time just walking around and thats it. i played for like almost 3hrs last night when i got in from work and iv not killed a single thing yet.

[final sierra]

Honestly best to put it in #1067511606373785730 . We get a lot of opinions every day and it's difficult to manage them all through dm's!

[unborn parcel]

👍

[viscid jolt]

mad2 abt to have the time of his life beta testing

[short ibex]

Scotland's natural beauty has been brilliantly implemented

[analog sorrel]

it really has and those Badgers are just omg i wanna snuggle em lol

[agile cradle]

what a lucky guy preying on my misfortune 😭

[terse grove]

i get kinda sad when people are like "omg why didnt they make africa" dude apparently dev team plans maps out years in advance and its been said that larger animals like elephants and such wont come until after lodge rework (unsure if that meant this one or further lodge changes) ofc its not gonna happen right now

[analog sorrel]

so guys whos found the murder cottage anyways ?

[short ibex]

5.6 GB update for GTA ugh

[terse grove]

i like to think late 2026 or early 2027 for something like that. itll take time but itll be worth it

[agile cradle]

i walked in, heard the bang, walked out

[humble tinsel]

Jaguars and African leopards 😢

[short ibex]

When does that Warframe update go live.....

[agile cradle]

i would survive a horror movie

[analog sorrel]

you need to go to the bedroom

[limber cliff]

I cannot imagine that heffalumps will fit in the lodges as they currently are 😭

ceilings too short

[terse grove]

yeah definitely not

even if they would fit on wall plaques theres not enough space for ears and tusks and trunks

[viscid jolt]

I want buckets of paint and ikea furniture dlc to customise my lodges more

[short ibex]

Fellas, am I the only one that cant find a server when you're looking for it?

[terse grove]

this tbh

[limber cliff]

And if people are fluffed off about how tigers 'look small' in lodges - IMAGINE how they would skree with the elephants being shrunk-to-fit

[short ibex]

Found it

[twin ridge]

This is probably a stupid question to ask but there is no way to adjust the scoped sensitivity so it’s different on shotguns to rifles to handguns to bows is there

[terse grove]

were tigers shranked??

[humble tinsel]

I mean the lions are bigger

[terse grove]

i thought they looked a little bapy but i didnt know if that was just me being stupid

[limber cliff]

I dont honestly know if they are actually shrunk - but they visually just.. look smaller? when on platforms?

[agile cradle]

just reiterating what i said last night but im pretty sure Buckshot finally got its long awaited buff this update

[terse grove]

yeah

[short ibex]

4pm, I have time to enjoy stuff

[ocean mortar]

I bet they could make some pretty cheetahs or sum like wild dogs

Anyway

[agile cradle]

buckshot actually killing hogs instead of doing absolutely nothing🙏❤️

[limber cliff]

Ufff African Wild Dogs, with new model making skills the team has? Yaaaasssss

[ocean mortar]

Scotland peak

I love wild dogs they would actually be a peak animal n so pretty

[short ibex]

Hear me out

Remodel the ENTIRE african animal roster, they are in DIRE need of it

The African animals genuinely look TERRIBLE and old now everything else has received updates

[analog sorrel]

man i loves the murder cottage lol

[terse grove]

old maps need touchups desperately but it wont happen since no money will be made from it

[agile cradle]

my theory is if they've fixed the buckshot, .30-30 might finally have its buff too

someone use .30-30 and see if its no longer equivalent to nerf guns

[short ibex]

Should be done for the players satisfaction.....

[ocean mortar]

I think its possible since they're in for the long run

[terse grove]

if it does happen itll be very slow and just something done bc why not and i dont know why a dev team so small would do something like that for the fun of it, they already have a huge work load lol

[limber cliff]

No - you hear ME out
Africa is old. Glowup for the whole roster would take 12 years because remaking model, realigning skeleton to fit the skinsuit, adjusting hitboxes and AI and overall adjustment of terrain etc

[terse grove]

this

[limber cliff]

Just.. Africa 2.0 and slow roll the glowups

[agile cradle]

the new fallow and sika sounds are awesome too❤️

[terse grove]

yeah sika dont burst my eardrums anymore!!

i still hear the eeEEEAAAAAAUUUUH in my head sometimes

[agile cradle]

this years been an amazing direction for this game and the devs im so proud of the EW goblins

[terse grove]

sane

smae

same

[short ibex]

Lions look terrible, they make roblox models look good, Im sorry but thats how it is. Same with the Lesser Kudu

[terse grove]

OH

i just realised the reason why the outline of the platforms was silvery

its bc it changes based on rating

[ocean mortar]

The lesser Kudu could be majestic, especially w the horns they have

[agile cradle]

just realised i havent seen a single male mink yet

[ocean mortar]

Yeah in a multi w 2 diams and a g1 it registered as diam and its blue

[limber cliff]

As I said... the map is old
I'm not disagreeing - but I am saying the skillset that made THOSE has evolved past that.
Yes to glow up - but if they revamp the whole roster all at once (minus the like.. 1 that got it when tru-horn were added??) it'll take forever

[terse grove]

this is cool

[agile cradle]

tyk have you had a shot of scotland yet??

a "schottland" if you will

[analog sorrel]

lol

schottland isnt that when they have the Whiskey festivals lol

[terse grove]

LMAO same word different meaning

ok im hopping off for the night doing lodges for 3 hours

[ebon hare]

1 gold minx and 3 gold fallow loving this map in the first hour

[analog sorrel]

iv been playing around 3ish hrs and iv not even pulled out my gun other than to get the haggis lol

[limber cliff]

iswydt

I have had a lil sippiesip of the map but not deep dive

I really... REALLY wanna wrap up these Stressmas presents

[final sierra]

I think people would be pretty upset though if we had a second Africa map and some certain animals weren't remastered

[analog sorrel]

iv not even brought a single pressent yet lol

[limber cliff]

I crocheted all mine this year 😭

-# my hands

[analog sorrel]

oh i bet they are all so beautiful

[limber cliff]

-# my poor bescrungled hands

[lunar ingot]

africa 2.0 would lowk be the worst because yep and also if u didnt add a few certain animals yall would get attacked so bad with how hostile people are :///

[analog sorrel]

yeah bet that was a killer on ur hands though

[limber cliff]

#🦝︴off-topic message

[analog sorrel]

personally i dont want africa 2.0 yet there are way too many other places to make beautiful maps for before africa 2.0 comes along

[terse grove]

the africa people are very ... hostile is not the right word but they want things done to a very high quality (reasonable) and some dont understand that such a thing takes years of development and get upset when "africa 2.0 isnt released again" (unreasonable)

[viscid jolt]

Yeah plus you’ve released all these weapon packs so the people are armed

[terse grove]

i do really want another africa map but i dont care when its released or if other maps take priority bc theres so many other areas that have great potential

[ebon hare]

I would like an amazon river map with tapir, jaguar, feral pigs, capybara etc.

[lunar ingot]

fact, africa 2 would be a VERY big project like vivi said cos people want all the old animals remastered, AND they want new ones AND with how much hype it has people will find fault with everything :((((

[analog sorrel]

😮 we cant kill Tapir those poor wee guinea pigs we cant hunt them

[terse grove]

like i understand people have been wanting a new africa for years and have gotten impatient but currently the dev team is at a great point with the game in terms of reserves and remodels, not much longer to wait hopefully

[final sierra]

We kind of can't do Africa 2 until we can really do it right

[terse grove]

i hope there's not just an africa 2.0 but multiple new ones, as tyk said, slowly rolling out new species, remodels, etc

[terse grove]

exactly.

[final sierra]

But again that doesn't mean we're not doing it it only means it will take time

A lot of time lol

[analog sorrel]

exactly

[terse grove]

yep

[lunar ingot]

people have talked about this before and i first of all disagree simply because its the amazon, but second cos its so dense it probably wouldnt be a very fun map as people have pointed out

[woeful flare]

Do anyone have the art of the new tusk variants for the g1 boar?

[limber cliff]

Africa is also... Kinda huge
So why bother with 2.0?
why not 3.0? 4.0?

[lunar ingot]

tyk ur always the voice of reason thank you

[sterile gust]

This intro is ugh love it

[terse grove]

i always think when i see people upset about no new africa maps "do you want a rushed map that lives up to no ones expectations or multiple maps that are beautifully crafted, bringing remodels both to vurhonga and new species onto the new map, new quests and weapons and landscapes that have been made with time and effort"

some people dont care they just want! it! now! but thats not happening and its for the better lol

[limber cliff]

-# lowkey think 1 big map/yr would be the solution to doing things like Africa maps XYZ correctly, but I might be in the minority there

[ebon hare]

Id honestly be fine if they just added more species to the savannah like zebra, rhino, elephant, giraffe, hippo, meerkat etc.

[final sierra]

Exactly what Kim (our game director) talked about in the Q&A!

[agile cradle]

i need to get mine done too im very bad at wrapping so i leave it last minute every time

[lunar ingot]

wheres informality when u need them i want them to attack the silly people who love their instant gratification :(((

[terse grove]

big things like half the animals you just mentioned are part of the reason why africa maps wont happen for a while

[analog sorrel]

NO NO NO to 1 map per yr been there done that and it failed tbh we love our 2 maps per yr

[limber cliff]

My husband is terrible at wrapping. I have taken this from him forever

[lunar ingot]

im not too sure giraffe hunting would be fun tbh 😭

[terse grove]

two maps per year has been working well it seems but i feel like occasionally it wouldnt hurt to do one even MORE amazing map a year from time to time, like imagine something even better than the maps theyve been delivering recently

[ebon hare]

Ahhh is it like a legality reason/poaching etc

[terse grove]

no

[final sierra]

DW we are still aiming for 2 maps per year haha

[terse grove]

because of the literal SIZE of the animal they wont fit in lodges

[final sierra]

We saw how 1 map per year went already

[limber cliff]

I mean dont get me wrong, I also love two per year.. I just think if they had more time to finesse the engine into doing all the things - we'd get a SICK map every year

[terse grove]

and lodges have been needing work for yeaaaars

[lunar ingot]

vivi how about no maps per year? shut up the petty complainers

[terse grove]

LOL

[limber cliff]

Loaf wait no 😭

Thats the end of the game

[terse grove]

one map a decade

[lunar ingot]

shhhh

lemme cook

[final sierra]

I cannot in my right mind endorse this

[analog sorrel]

i couldnt hunt those, elephants or rhino. why would ppl want to hunt endangered species i know its just a game but still to me its kinda the same thing if ur doing it in game kinda makes me feel these are the ppl who would go out and do it IRL 🙁

[terse grove]

i refuse to believe theres gonna be an end until every continent/large country has like 10+ maps /hj

[lunar ingot]

youre weak vivi, what are they doing to you?

[terse grove]

id love south american maps too but idk what sort of potential is there with so many protected species

[lunar ingot]

wait that sticker scares me

[final sierra]

HUNTER FOREVERRR

[lunar ingot]

i didnt mean it aha aha…

[terse grove]

Tibetan Fox™

[limber cliff]

Vivi gonna yeet you into the gulag at this rate

[terse grove]

ok im going to bed now im tired 😭 great map guys

[lunar ingot]

fact, i really dont like the idea and ik we already have some but PERSONALLY im not a fan of it. i cant think of a single example where id have to shoot a rhino theyre not exactly cool elusive creatures in any way theyre just big cool things which u can spot a mile away, nothing like the snow leopard.

i also think an amazon map is bad for the same reason kinda, the amazon is like a VERY contentious (???) place atm like tensions are p high the place itself is endangered. i dont think a hunting ground set in the area is exactly like fitting considering it all

[lunar ingot]

its okay ik she hates me i pushed it too far… i deserve this

[ebon hare]

My ideas are bad I guess haha

All in all its a game, I would never hunt an endangered species

[analog sorrel]

pmsl one of my IRL puppers is trying to talk to my in game dog cos its making wimpering noises lol

[lunar ingot]

nor would anyone in here (i would like to think) but i do worry about adding too many just kinda watering down the whole thing of how endangered they are. the snow leopard is hard to find on the best of days even seeing one is a reward in game, but like a huge elephant or rhino in the open desert? like theres nothing special or challenging there. also giraffes i think are simply too tall and would be able to be spotted so far out lol

[lunar ingot]

this is so cute i love dogs

[ebon hare]

But I also understand that this game aligns and adheres to hunting laws, standards and morals. Hope i wasnt outta line yall just brainstorming map ideas

[thorn jacinth]

I think both askiy and scotland are really good compared to some of the maps we got in the past

[lunar ingot]

dw ur not outta line ur far from the first to suggest some of these things and theres people who agree with u!!!! u just happened to say it when someone who doenst is around (me) 😭

[analog sorrel]

im totally with u on all ur points tbh

[lunar ingot]

so glad im making sense i lowk just woke up after accidentally passing out n missing lectures so yippeeeee 🤩

[limber cliff]

Honestly I think the team, learning since 2017, and really honing in on map dev'ing, and model creation is what did it for us

[analog sorrel]

EW if you are giving anything away to one loyal player iv played since release in 2017 can i please have one of the beautiful cottages in the new map to go live in please 😄

[midnight valve]

Dont get me wrong Viv If one map a year was done, I dont think it would be nearly as bad If we got the great ones/remodels/free content too show for it.

The year they did one map there wasnt..... much.

[viscid jolt]

What was the one map per year map/ maps

[lunar ingot]

callback to yesterday 😭

[viscid jolt]

I ain’t remember

[midnight valve]

I think It was Aus?

[analog sorrel]

and it didnt go well

[unborn parcel]

guys, do mink go up to lvl 5?

[lunar ingot]

yarp

[analog sorrel]

yes i believe so

[viscid jolt]

I wouldn’t be bad about Australia as i thought it was absolutely grand but I think if a singular map in a year was somewhere like . North America or Europe and didn’t have many or any new additions ppl would be . Pretty bored and unhappy

[unborn parcel]

ok

[lunar ingot]

fictional fantasy animal map when?

[midnight valve]

Yeah Aus too Nepal, Both pretty solid additions

Looking at the DLCS between though
High calibre weapon pack
(Cosmetic addition, seems like going off all the dlcs)
Lab Retriever
Ambusher Pack

[agile cradle]

has any creator so far got a rushjob zone map?? would be nice to know the best spot for the woodcocks

[midnight valve]

Like for one map a year, there wasnt much in terms of DLC either.

I dont think there was another great one added either in that year besides fallow either.

[analog sorrel]

Think i saw @jade thicket say late last night they would start rolling theirs out today

[midnight valve]

Then the next one added Is tahr..... probably one of the least grinded ones.

[viscid jolt]

Contrary to the image of the woodcock being at the top of the map , they’re found only in the bottom third

[lunar ingot]

had a feeling reds were high north i have yet to go

[viscid jolt]

Yaya they r

[limber cliff]

I'm... bothered

It's .... cluttered looking. 😭

[tawdry juniper]

they need to be everywhere. total woodcock domination

[umbral latch]

anyone got a workaround for the mp crashes?

[lunar ingot]

im so exciting to get a diamond today after my botched one yesterday 😼

[limber cliff]

are you joining friends or are friends joining you?

[viscid jolt]

I think my retriever is being daft

I know I got a woodcock around here somewhere but she is refusing to acknowledge it

Bloodhound time

[umbral latch]

trying to join friends

[analog sorrel]

bahahahahha the guide just called someone a ballbag pmsl i love ittttttttttttttt

[umbral latch]

other servers work though

[chrome raven]

Another

[limber cliff]

Try having someone else host it -
Since there are no real 'servers' in the game (it is ALL peer-to-peer connections) it could be any number of things happening

• Desync between host and you
• any internet fluctuation/dip for too long could make your connection to them unstable
• if their rig cannot handle running the game AND hosting at the same time etc

[umbral latch]

ah right, its just one of the random ons from MP

But my game crashes on trying to join any of them. but i can join other maps. it's only scotland that crashes.

[tawdry juniper]

Crashing to desktop?

[umbral latch]

yes sir

[tawdry juniper]

Thats new to me

[solid bear]

Also calls someone a Jobbie at some point which subtitles corrects to turd 🤣

[tawdry juniper]

I was gonna plug the known issues thread for you to take a look but i lost it 😭

[umbral latch]

all good, thank you

i have fast and stable internet, and it crashes when i believe it it starts trying to load in

[agile cradle]

was there a patch put out this morning why do i need to download something again before launching

WHY ARE ALL MY DLC MISSING

"YOU DONT OWN THIS MAP" YES TF I DO

[analog sorrel]

when i got home from work last night i had to reinstall everything somehow everything from hunter had uninstalled

[analog sorrel]

if ur on xbox check everything is installed this is what it told me last night i dont own any of it or its not installed

[agile cradle]

it was just my steam not syncing with cloud

hate this goddamn internet stuffs

[hearty flicker]

Hi guys ! Dilute is confirmed to be a rare for Badger ?

[woeful flare]

Yes

[hearty flicker]

Ooooooh

Noice ‘

[solid bear]

I take it Piebald badger is too? Bagged one on multiplayer yesterday, first badger id seen in the game

[warm wren]

@teal trail sorry idk if you fixed it but just came home and remembered that certain apps (for me it was Medal and Steelseries engine) can crash the game like that. Go into your task manager and close them and try again

btw does anyone have an open server? i keep getting either desynchronized or kicked

[dire bone]

Insane find

Greggs sausage rolls ❤️

[hearty flicker]

Piebald are so better than dilute

[midnight valve]

The amount of roe deer on this map Is nuts.

Also vertical roe deer.

[viscid jolt]

Found my level 5 goat AGAINNN.. he refuses to give me a good shot

[midnight valve]

Better question though does one kill the solo males on this map? or do I kill the pairs.

because like logically this zone here, how on earth do I pick the two correct deer out lol.

[viscid jolt]

NAHH THATS evil!!!!

[midnight valve]

yeah shot a pair male, and a solo female rip.

[viscid jolt]

idk just shoot anything you can see tbh with roe...

[midnight valve]

I think that's gonna be the move.

[viscid jolt]

males first, try and shoot the females when you get the chance

see a female on it's own? grand, shoot it, might be paired to a dime male waiting to respawn

[glad garnet]

That’s funny 😂

[midnight valve]

Seems like for the most part each zone Is gonna have anywhere from 1-5 "unique" zone deer on it.

Some will be pairs, some will be solos.

[glad garnet]

Y’all I can’t get over how pretty this map is

[viscid jolt]

Yeah gonna be real tricky to tell so I just say. Kill everything

[midnight valve]

I bet that river is gonna have tons down on it, I'm not excited too go check 😅

[jaunty trail]

little stuck tryign to convince the landmark photo mission to register the graveyard and the heritage forest

[sterile gust]

Welcome to Scotland my friend there as common as a dog 🤣

[midnight valve]

I am indeed scottish, I bloody wish there was that many roe deer when I went out lmao

[sterile gust]

Man there all I see 🤣 every field near me has atleast 3-5 in it

[midnight valve]

Best one I took this year was 370gms, looks a lot like the diamonds that's my only major complaint about the map now.

Short fronts, and short uppers shouldnt be a diamond roe

[sterile gust]

Aye finally getting to enjoy this map uninterrupted n I must say I am gob smacked the map reminds me a lot like glencoe n surrounding areas

[wheat holly]

Rare? 👀

[shell veldt]

first diamond in scotland

[midnight valve]

like... there alright but they need new trueracs.

like why is the g2(?) curved inwards? Rear tine points upwards? Brow tine sloppily placed on the beam.

Lot of diversity in roe dont get me wrong but why not base trueracs of a good example of a big roe deer?

[sterile gust]

That’s a unit hai Jesus

[midnight valve]

For sure one of the examples of CIC 😅

[sterile gust]

It’s sum I’ve never done but always wanted to do

[midnight valve]

We had two medals running around we didnt catch up too this year.... In theory should be here next April so.

The forest has a crap ton but I like hunting the moors I like driving about sitting In a wood I'm not a fan of.

[sterile gust]

I’ve always tried to get booked in for a stalk but they’ve either been full or expensive 😭 so never went ahead with it

[midnight valve]

Stalking directory Is never a bad place too check out

[sterile gust]

Aye? Where boots it based?

[midnight valve]

Its a website! at least the stalking opportunities section of it Is more so geared towards brits... and more appropriate pricing, than seeing stuff advertised on fb/book your hunt etc that's godawfully over priced.

[warm wren]

i thought mink only went up to difficulty 3?

is the mink also a difficulty 9?

[analog sorrel]

mink and pine martin are both 5

[sterile gust]

Aye? Mate bangin news thanks for that will hae a wee gander when I’m on break

[lunar ingot]

any high street 😼

[warm wren]

ah i see thank you lacey

just stalked a level 3 mink for 15 minutes

[tawdry nebula]

scotland when

[viscid jolt]

you'll never guess what

[tawdry nebula]

?

[analog sorrel]

i only have mink to spot now and iv only killed 1 animal and that was for a mission lol

[midnight valve]

I think end of the season the sucess rate ends up being about 50% for the total season, so very solid honestly.

Wouldnt be surprised too if people are passing on spikers too earlier in the evening/morning for the hopes off a bigger stag too show up that drops the avg as well, I'd guess.

[lunar ingot]

wait are u fr?

[dusky locust]

I can't find the Purple Grey Fur type for the Boar I shot in Scotland. Any ideas on rarity?

[sterile gust]

400 for the entire thing?

[midnight valve]

I'm unsure if you take the carcass In that case (maybe?) but for prime time hunting, Its pretty dang solid.

[tawdry nebula]

yes
when scotland drops

[midnight valve]

You keep the head, obviously.

[lavish elbow]

Just got on the new map had a diamond fallow and messed it up

[lunar ingot]

yesterday did u miss all of the promo stuff? 😭

[sterile gust]

Aye that sounds bril get to keep the head is it like a multi day thing with accommodation or just a single day?

[lunar ingot]

me three ❤️

[analog sorrel]

new maps already out it was released yesterday

[midnight valve]

Usually the single day as far as I'm aware, probably close too 10 or so hours hunting I'd imagine.

[sterile gust]

Oft aye that sounds like a day I would happily take

[midnight valve]

Like Its not the cheapest stalking but hey If you wanted too shoot a red with the potential of decent antlers he's probably the best choice overall.

[sterile gust]

I’ll give it a wee lookie

[midnight valve]

Most outters very sadly charge £50 a point on reds, It sucks ass lol.

Should be plenty of central belt roe stalking on stalking directory too, those are usually a tad more reasonable.

[warm wren]

already know im gonna hate this animal

[midnight valve]

RIP that it wasnt a big four.

Righty back too roe deer, before I must go shoot more roe deer IRL

[warm wren]

found a fat 0 woodcocks so far

[bleak tide]

Chestnut mink rare?

[humble fjord]

No

[finite wagon]

You're looking at the feral pig page + wiki isnt accurate atm + purple grey is rare

[silver reef]

Anybody know if you earn the new shotgun as a reward or do you just buy it?

[midnight valve]

You can.

[warm wren]

Im just gonna assume a fur isnt rare unless it says mela, albino, or piebald

[midnight valve]

Its apart of the side mission "Eat your hat" Its just harvest a red deer apparently.

[midnight valve]

There's Erythristic, Dilute, Leusistic, Purple something for a various species so I wouldnt quite go off that 🤷

[finite wagon]

Or leucistic or erythristic

Badgers do have a dilute tho

And boars have purple grey

And blackgold

[midnight valve]

Yup and nothing saying there isnt something we've not seen yet too.

I feel like black gold Is bugged honestly.

No way there meant too look that bad.

[humble fjord]

Bro isn't even gold anymore

[midnight valve]

Yea I think something got swapped I feel like that varaint Is meant too be a common In what It looks like, feels like the genine textures for black gold aint there anymore.

[finite wagon]

What does it look like now?

[warm wren]

yeah i know about leucistic and dilute, erythristic i would probably save just in case but thank you for letting me know about the purple thingy

[proper wedge]

Does the trophy-sorting system also show trophies that are currently mounted? Or do we need to remove them all to start clean with all of them in the sort - if so, that could take a minute...

[midnight seal]

Where are you looking?

[analog sorrel]

in the wrong place obviously lol

[warm wren]

im heading north to see, then ill head east

[midnight valve]

There only below that river

[warm wren]

Oh okay im gonna check when my game stops crashing

[midnight valve]

Mood I feel that, I can tell my game wants too crash here soon 🤣

Roe drink on the coast too, right where you just posted that screenshot 👍 good too know.

[midnight seal]

Look in the very bottom of the map

[finite wagon]

Whhat the hell

[midnight valve]

yeah there awful lmao

Clearly aint right

[viscid flume]

Putple grey is rare

[finite wagon]

All the boar rares suuuck now what the hell

[midnight valve]

Almost like roe deer should of been the g1 👁️

[finite wagon]

Other than albinos

Im not a fan of the g1 boar either

[midnight valve]

It just bugs me as a scot they picked boar for a scottish map personally.

[finite wagon]

Yea arent scottish populations only like

1400 individuals

[midnight valve]

I checked when the map got announced there's one CIC result for a medal boar across the entire of Brittan last year, and over 800 entries for medal roe deer.

Pretty much, my district has the most and I'm literally one of the most suthern districts lol.

[agile cradle]

anyone for a haggis supper wae chips n broon sauce?

[midnight valve]

Like if your not doing red deer do our secondary national symbol! the roe!!!

[analog sorrel]

mmmmmm yummy

[agile cradle]

i want some baverhojt

[midnight valve]

It got disqualified for excess bone growth but heyo! the deer still grew it!

Dang quite a lot down here

[agile cradle]

spooky

[agile cradle]

you cant go a walk in the countryside here without seeing at least one group of roe

[midnight valve]

There our most common deer by a huge margin.

yeaaa there COTW goes lol

[analog sorrel]

love all the spooky stuff on this map

[midnight valve]

Its weird, I can tell when COTW wants too crash.

The tab outs get.... weird.

oh dang wtf Is the sun doing

[midnight seal]

Where?

[midnight valve]

Left middle portion of the coast

I'll send an image here in a second.

[midnight valve]

There's been like 10 M class flare and the prediction is G3 lovely, Cmon sun do things I want pretty auroras.

Its doing things, but not in the right way.

[peak imp]

I'm kinda shocked that they decided not to like redo the red deer great ones and add more variants at the very least. Boar would've made more sense to do...basically anywhere else

[midnight valve]

Boar would of been a fantastic great one too be given the wolf treatment.

[midnight valve]

Didnt get too far before that crash, lots though.

[warm wren]

i NEED the buck and brock multimount

[peak imp]

I'm glad I don't have all of the crashes i used to have

[wet magnet]

Please, missed a 5 medium mink. Do they come to feeders??

[analog sorrel]

i doubt it very much

[wet magnet]

Damn. Thank you

[midnight valve]

Try find its zone?

[wet magnet]

I found it. From 00.00 to 3.00. But leaving and missed the shot. Noticed the ragefinder gives inaccurate readings on water. Said it was 200m away,after missing check the icon on the map he was 148m away

Will try again. Thanks

[viscid raven]

On the mission staged whisper at the whispering stone its telling me to observe nearby deer activity but im not quite sure what to do here. Do I need to binocular a deer that I scared away on my ATV? Yep, I found a track, followed it and binoculared a deer to solve it.

[viscid flume]

First Albino pheasant!

[astral blade]

Am I the first one to find this?

[weak smelt]

No

[jaunty trail]

Are the gravestones with names and stuff on them for dev family members or the like?

[midnight valve]

I need to go cook this venison I have

.... I can see some drives happening here lol

:(

[proven plinth]

I wondered that too. Would be a neat Easter egg

[haughty storm]

So where's the wild haggis at?

[proven plinth]

Anyone get spooked at the Murder House outpost? Blood spots everywhere, and a gunshot audio went off twice while i was upstairs... I left asap to find a different outpost 🙃😅

[analog sorrel]

i found that about 2:30 this mornin so was even spookier then lol

[twin ridge]

Google the names see what comes up

[bleak tide]

Fallow deer pop reset?

[haughty storm]

Don't know if they mentioned it in the streams or what, but if you go under Codex-->Wildlife and they have Wild Haggis listed

[midnight seal]

Does it bleed? Season 2

[humble wraith]

I got trolled by a mink 🧌

[minor veldt]

Has there been a fix for the || "read the bones" mission|| not working?
spoiler for story

[solid bear]

no pop resets apparently

[analog sorrel]

my read the bones went throught first try

Is a black pine marten rare?

[zinc urchin]

@final sierra is the new africa map still coming??

[night trench]

No

[analog sorrel]

we already have africa

[weak smelt]

Why tf that ain't working

https://tenor.com/view/ishowspeed-meme-trying-not-to-laugh-laugh-homeless-gif-9458928528704746136

There we go

[zinc urchin]

yea there was a video saying about a new Africa map with elephant

[tropic adder]

😭 where did tak go, i haven't seen him

[weak smelt]

Yeah well don't watch whoever tf posted that lmao

[echo lodge]

Anyone found out what The other New boar Fur IS besides purple?

[weak smelt]

You don't wanna know... the horrors...

[analog sorrel]

will we ever see jaxy again i wonder

[sweet beacon]

Oh it’s Chopper. Sometimes he posts concept videos, but none of them are actual things by EW

[zinc urchin]

Oh ok

I’m getting a new map right now

[haughty storm]

Always ALWAYS consider the source

[weak smelt]

cough cough lady legend

[sweet beacon]

I wouldn’t bank on an Africa 2.0 any time soon. It’s not completely out of the realm of possibilities, but I just wouldn’t really count on it

[paper locust]

2027 is my guess

[tropic adder]

chopper js a lady legend clone, but arguably worse

[teal trail]

thanks but i fixed it

[whole wren]

Africa is a big place dude

[warm wren]

What was your fix?

[placid oasis]

any new boar rares?

[minor veldt]

We already had layton,why introduce any other NA map?

[warm wren]

some purple coat i think

i'd rather have a siberian musk deer remaster than africa 2.0 (and i want africa 2.0)

[sweet beacon]

The only Cotw creators I watch are Rooster, HeadHunter, Scarecrow, and Flinter

[tropic adder]

i fw crow, flinter, rooster

but my goat

pro xck 🥹

[weak smelt]

Wow you should join his server

[sick dagger]

does anyone know if the black fur type is rare for pine marten?

[tropic adder]

i mean, there's very few instances where color-named furs are rare

and considering they have mela, i doubt it

[paper locust]

Maybe uncommon but

Not rare

There's light brown as well that might be uncommon

[valid sage]

Meep

[sick dagger]

aight thanks for the info

[minor veldt]

If you are unsure you can tax it and then see if its rare in the trophy filter by selecting rare or very rare

[sick dagger]

oh yeah you can filter now, i forgot about that

[paper locust]

Could be bugged however

[sweet beacon]

Confirmed that black is uncommon

[paper locust]

Iirc I've seen some wrong ones

[sweet beacon]

It was somewhere up in this channel

Can’t find it now

[sick dagger]

thanks!

[warm wren]

where do yall find the most luck hunting roe deer?

[sweet beacon]

Worst case, wait a few until the companion app is updated

[paper locust]

Light brown is probably the same. I've had 2 black and 1 lb compared to like 20+ regular brown

[sick dagger]

i saved the harvest so i can always tax it if it turns out to be rare

[paper locust]

Scotland

Without question

They are everywhere and easy to shoot

[weak smelt]

^^ Same with sika

[warm wren]

where do most of them drink?

i ran along the coast but found none

[paper locust]

The coast??? Odd choice

[warm wren]

Yeah apparently they drink salt water

saw some in a mp earlier

[paper locust]

The middle third of the map is where I've seen the most iirc

And no lmao

They drink at lakes

[warm wren]

There was a drink zone at the beach haha

goats too

[teal trail]

verify the files

[midnight valve]

Theres some over here, I dont think they drink higher and there's a gap until you start too curve down too the river system.

[warm wren]

Thank you

damn i just realized i havent even spotted a red grouse yet

[jade thicket]

quite a few animals drink on the coast

many will not check though and miss em

[hearty flax]

Has anyone done the story mode on the Scotland map and is it any good?

[analog sorrel]

its awesome doing it now

[hearty flax]

might try it out later on

[viscid flume]

64 Kills in and this tank shows up! almost max weight...

[paper locust]

I think it's pretty good. Yukon is still my favorite story so far but this one was entertaining which I appreciate

[tired sparrow]

hope you have fun!

[hearty flax]

I appreciate that thank you

[warm wren]

i love arctic eggs

[hearty flax]

tried out the maps last night with my partner and it was amazing

[tired sparrow]

very kind, makes me happy to hear people like it

already working on the next hope I can make it better from your feedback

[hearty flax]

still need work in some plces though, but overall good map

[tired sparrow]

Yeah nothing is gonna be perfect but I'm proud of the team

[paper locust]

It's absolutely stunning. I took a bunch of pictures while doing the story because I just kept running across these beautiful scenic shots

[tired sparrow]

only thing that makes me sad, we tested it so thoroughly and then we made a fix for that first mission bug and it didn't make it in!

doh!

[analog sorrel]

like it is an understatement its now my all time fav map cant thank you guys enough. the story is fantastic and the map it self is AMAZINGLY beautiful

being from the UK it makes it even more special

[warm wren]

You should update the siberian musk deer model, the old one is looking pretty rough!

[solid bear]

As a Scotsman Im delighted with the wee Still game reference in the story line too - done a very good job in the story line so far, its got decent Scottish humour without tripping over into parody and shortbreadtinnishness (honest, its a word)

[sterile gust]

Might I suggest a wee shooting range or clay range? I know the maps out n I don’t know if it’s possible to add it in a new update but I’d like a wee traditional clay range

[tired sparrow]

Good suggestion. We put one in Salzwiesen but we're open to it for the future

[analog sorrel]

cant wait for the next map you have coming its just gonna blow us all away. can we please get horses to ride around on instead of ATV's hehehehe 😄

[sterile gust]

Apart from that Ben you guys have smashed it with this map I’m loving it

[agile cradle]

any chance we might see map specific terrains for our mounts and stands? would be nice to have a heather field for some of the scottish critters

[sterile gust]

Now this would be amazing

[tired sparrow]

good suggestion whack it in the place where we put those in feedback if you fancy

[sterile gust]

Idea* make the gun/bird dogs push n flush out the pheasants n grouse ect

This map makes me reminisce the times I did beating n driven shoots for birds

[astral blade]

Are chestnut mink rare?

[solid bear]

just to say, the effort with the Scottish Gaelic is much appreciated - coming from the Outer Hebrides its really good to see the importance it has been accorded on the map - which remains true to much of Scotland where Gaelic names remain for topographical features though the language may have disappeared from the area centuries before.

[potent berry]

Love the new update so far, tho I think the cross/bow mounts are still a bit...silly.

[agile cradle]

will do! once i'm done shooting meeps anyway

[night trench]

Thank you expansive worlds 🙏

[weak briar]

Nice best ive gotten so far is a gold fallow

[dusky wolf]

Anyone know what the rares for the new species are

[warm wren]

i got a troll pine marten 😞

[sterile gust]

Best I’ve had is silver n gold on anything

No rares yet

[warm wren]

kinda surprising how few trophies we're getting on these maps with fresh spawns

[thorn jacinth]

Well have u checked every single animal on the map

[dusky wolf]

I had like 2 initial diamond potential animals already

Fallow and a roe deer

Haven’t shot them yet cus I spooked them in their zones earlier

[warm wren]

🙃

[paper locust]

I plan to go intentionally hunting for my good initials today. Yesterday was all missions lol

[lunar ingot]

today ima do some missions n just look about, i did some exploring yesterday lol

[glacial light]

Has anyone done the story missions yet? Either I can't track or I'm missing some tracks somewhere 😛

Its the missing inaction btw

[paper locust]

I almost have the map completely done. Have 2 outposts and 5 poi to do

[paper locust]

Restart the game, pick up the last track, then respot

[glacial light]

ok, I'll try that

[plucky marten]

As a mission player, loving the new missions. They teach new players methods. I'm hoping they are as much of a challenge as Colinas.

[agile cradle]

anyone know where to pick up a gd ring neck

[warm wren]

i wish more roe deer and woodcocks was spawning

[paper locust]

starter area, bottom left, and just north of the river on the bottom are my main areas

[agile cradle]

cheers

[sinful tide]

these minks are hard to hit for a old man lol they fast

[agile cradle]

i cant get within 100 yards of the things to blast em with shot

so fast

[sinful tide]

lol same i want to use a shotgun for easy hitting but cant seem get close

been using rifle but they so small target

[warm wren]

they should've added sheep instead of these feral goats

[viscid jolt]

Anyone noticed anything groovy with the hunting pressure build up? I’m getting mid pressure after shooting just one animal

[potent berry]

So I own the premium trophy lodge pack but...I can't seem to find an option to use it with blackbears?

[minor veldt]

Only LARGE mounts have it afaik

Large like ones that support breadwinner,bye son etc

[potent berry]

I am trying it on a large mount, same spot I used to have a Bear Necessities.\

[minor veldt]

Try seeing if the middle one in the big room on saseka can have it

[potent berry]

oh yeah that works....but you can't edit the base at all color wise.

😅 Kinda not what I was expecting/wanting but ok- It seems to only work with the circle ones & you can't edit the wood coloration at all.

[minor veldt]

I think thats intentional...?

[minor veldt]

Well yeah its a circle mount so it makes sense

It practically just added a rock to those

[final sierra]

We spawned this one in just for you

[potent berry]

Idk why the option to use the paints is disabled for the special mount tho.

Throws off the vibe

[naive breach]

Scotland is full of rares tbh

[minor veldt]

Hey vivi
Is the || "read the bones" mission not being able to be completed || a known issue?

[minor veldt]

Yeah it seems to be intentional

Kinda sucks ngl but oh well

[potent berry]

Like I really just wanna be able to put that wood type onto the special mount....lil bit of a swing and miss on EW but otherwise been enjoying the update.

[fierce bay]

Vivi you wont belive it, but my first caper on the new map Was a diamond

[viscid flume]

I found that xl/l plaques that can hold moose, some will not allow them while others will. May be other decorations in the way on specific plaques or a bug?

[minor veldt]

An issue i have with it is the fact that the filters turn off once you have placed a trophy or exited the menu
Which makes it super annoying when trying to find more then 1 trophy with those same filters
Like i put the filters on for a reason yk

[dusky wolf]

Female timberdoodles score pretty big

I just got one that scores 38.97

I’m wondering if both males and females can make diamond

[viscid elbow]

GOOD MORNING MY FAVORITE CHAT

[dusky wolf]

This female I shot also weighs in at 0.39 kg to

[minor veldt]

I think its like beavers where males can get close but not actually score diamond

Might be wrong,or at least i hope i am lol
