it was implied. you have no idea how many people call it layton instead of layton lakes
Aren't we all just one trip away from a fall?
what the heck are you going to hunt in the keys
gourd art is made in utah theres a city in layton
Good one Ormy
chickens and pigs
Bro it’s not Utah I’m sorry
iguana
says you
Meggles just lurking and laughing at us
^
idk maybe everglades
i think its pretty safe to say that Utah wont be it.
Silver ridge peaks can literally be considered a Utah like map
Its a map on the earth
I'm gonna laugh so hard if it's Asian map called hatU 😄
also i don't think layton utah matters because they don't model their maps off of real life towns
and there are so many towns called layton
it funny bc my name is layton in real life
I still hope it's about the deepest place in Africa
it says layton in the hint not layton lakes is why im still searching
im gonna keep looking
But that’s not the actual hint
Dang
africa aint it
It's most likely because there isn't space for lakes
😋🍴🐕
It was made into a meme so that makes sense
theres never not enough room for another word someone put a 400 word essay on one page
What does a fucking bottle gourd have in common with Layton besides water!? I cant come up with anything
Perhaps the fall thing is something
Wood
i agree with this message
i looked up layton swamp and only got swamp coolers in utah
They both have wood
Wood=tree=Forest=earth=mars
That wouldnt be a very helpful clue would it
Idk some forests have wood
It's a gourd in America which origins are in Asia
gourd = made out of plants = bugs eat plants = bug hunting
when is the next hint releced
Tommorow
we don't know that for sure though
oh damn
Wait i thought it was a African wine Kettle
Is the same

new update you have to eat and drink to survive
sponsered by sprite ?
Nah sponsored by spirit
ah yes
my fingers are numb
the new map will contain promotional material for sprite
Cotw x Sprite crossover
time to do some history research
and a target range where you shoot sprite cans
maybe the gourd is a clue to a gun bc these ideas want to make me want to shoot my self
Lebron james in cotw singing the sprite song confirmed?
Sprite=ride=horse=horse hunting
and we put sprite in the gourd
Whatever the new map is, I'm sure it will be Gourdgous. lol
Funny
single it down to africa or asia
nice
i found out that much
dog update = gourd hint = dog drinking water = dog hunting?
ill keep looking
Sprite has bubbles in it, does that mean that the next EW stream will be a hottub stream?
Spririt -> haunting -> ghosts -> who you gonna call?

Well good luck with the search, im off to bed. keep it civil in here and remember no pictures of dead animals outside of #🥩︴irl-hunting
lol
new a10 dlc! take off from an outpost and start gunning down deer
Time challenge
thats mostly birds
not quite dead is alright, yea?
Lol
;P
I'd assume no.
You know what it means. No grey area bending.
is anyone even actually trying to figure out the clue anymore or are you guys just waiting
photoshop a happy face on a dead animal
i gave out this is out of my knowlage range
Is it myley Cyrus?
all i heard was guesses
Nah the clue is literally Layton
Gourd=Old Fortnite map
Bruh we went down that path and it was a dead ended
worst game in existance
cause im still keeping that form question in my mind mentioning the season things
you guys arent doing the thing anymore
No one is
well i am
We been searching for this clue since friday
okay but isnt the point of the clue to figure out the next update
Idk last thing would be, that the gourds were used by native americans and that Layton is in America
so
That's something they have in common
Wyoming confirmed. This was posted by Layton Gourd. 😆
okay what the frick is the clue stuff is it to figure out the next update or is it just some random thing for people to do when they arent playing
well if layton the second clue then it must mean a collab with (totally didn't google this) Joe Layton
why would you think its some hot guy from the internet
i found leaked proof of an a10 warthog update. we can finally stop searching for the clue!
wtf
"facepalms" aparently this isnt to figure out the new update coming out
at this point i would find it hilarious if the next update came with a war of new bugs
Finally,the good bighorn
im not gonna belive a fricken meme is a clue
lolz
it's not a meme...
Imagine if they did that
it's literally leaked information
wait guys i just found something on layton
Guys I found the clue of you look closely there is a zebra “diving deeper”
look
could be a troll as well
Africa confirmed
oh my god man! this update is going to be so good!
It might just be in America ngl
how are you guys fininding these clues so fast
sprite x cotw confirmed
@pearl hatch we dove deeper
😳😳😳😳😳😳😱😱😱😱😱
lmao
im highly convinced of only a few possiblities even though im very possibly wrong which normaly i am, that its a possiblity of new water species or a new map possibly in west africa or a seasons added
We may as well just stop. You figured it out!
people are just screwing around now
does anyone even take this seriously
i dove a little deeper and finally found it. elephants confirmed.
the one thing i want in cotw is new caribou racks that are actully caribou racks
Guys I found a black bear great one!!!!!!!
😥
i get this is supposed to be fun but it doesnt feel like it with all the unrelated pics popping up
I love how the community stopped giving a damn about the clue
😮😮😮
fr
what do you mean? we're finding even more clues
found a grizzly bear diamond
@uncut adder 😳
the one time i get into it everyone just gives up
oh my god!
Look at link it's a giant black bear great one
and starts screwing around like kids
Confirm
we kinda stopped caring and started f***ing around
baby animals are offical to the game
Bro omg I just found Lebron holding up sprite Lebron James is coming to cotw confirmed?!?!?
The 2 most obvious things would be, that they for one both hold water and secondly the bottle gourd was used in native America and Layton is in America. I feel like those are too obvious to be the similarities in search though.
these arent even clues anymore they are just jokes
Also this madness here has to stop
i want to talk about the clue not see a bunch of stupid pictures
but yogi bear
layton has lots of lakes which is water based and the gourd is used for carrying water so water
we figured this out like friday
🥵🥴🥵
so no one is trying to figure out the new update?
This guy be like: Tell me you live in australia without telling me you live in australia
we need a clue for the clue for the clue.
We already basically talked about ut
i finally found it. new truck dlc
yeah but we didnt come to a conculsion
Warthogs confirmed?!?
Close,getting warmer
Listen this is aaa Tony Prince
Layton 2.0, whit gourd hunt, easy
ez
its not a hunt for a fricken fruit
Bruh
or veggie or whatever a gourd is
You can actually turn the gourd into a club and use it on animals
ITS NOT A FOOD
That’s the content guys
it would break dude
let's go shoot use some whitetail gourds
wtf
bring multiple
Bro I saw a diamond gourd
EOAH
wow cool photoshop
😐
it's real
It’s the clue
Ikr
Swimming confirmed?!?!
that's kinda sus
Can we get a mod in here,we gotta party pooper
i wish a moderator would shut down this stuff
😐😐😐
the duality of man
im talking about the pictures with unrelated stuff in it
oh great another red deer map...
It's the clues dangut
another cool photoshop
Godzilla confirmed?!?!
not a photoshop
emergency meeting. do we eject red or wildebeest?
Wildebeest
Wildebeest vented
im not joking when i say cool photoshop
that red deer walking through water is pretty
Wildebeest... oh come on somebody beat me to it
Not to bring this back up, but have you tried clearing your MAC address and deleting the DLC maps or the whole game and starting over? It could be a cache issue or corrupted save. It would suck to start over, but it might fix the game for you.
Me😎
This chat is worse than a crocodile feeding frenzy at the Ord river
lol
speaking seriously...
assuming it is a Pilgrim's Gourd, in South Layton we can see a lot of history about the pilgrims/settlers, beyond that or the water I do not see other things in common...
i think it could be west africa
oh my!
woah
these leaks are coming in like crazy
go to steam and go to verify local files
Well that's ez,uh sus wait..AHHHH
BRRRRR
Bung bong bung
🤯
i went into the game files and found this line of text
"There is no update, go away"
lol
🤔
We do a mild amount of tomfoolery
really? i did it and saw the new cooking update
cook any animal you kill
Legit
Dinosaurs in Layton confirmed
pog
Diving red deer will rescue us
is it possible theres gonna be a new mission with a gourd field and we have to stop the deer from eating them
that is real
Nah
no we need to stop the gourds from eating the deer...
it would be cool if we got a dino map
theres enough dinosaur games as it is and no one can make a dinosaur hunting game good so far
Oppressor Mk2
abandon realism a bit, enter a time machine, and hunt dinos
ive not found a good dinosaur hunting game at all
The hunter primal was pretty good
it looks good but its not
Ok well anyways
its fun but tedious
carnivores
We need to stop now
what if there is a secret lake (hunting dive deeper) and when we walk into it we get sent into the future where we can hunt robot red deer
after a while you have to grind just to level up
Getting too carried away
i 1/50k chance or rarer for a dinosaur to spawn on layton and hunt the player would be hilarious.
raising the level cap on hunter would be cool though
I'm leaving because there's nothing left to talk about imo
Bye
After a while, i think the new map will be somewhere on the earth
im starting to think it wont be a new map but a new version of one we already got
because that was on one of the question things
Bitcoin map
speaking of new versions of old maps
WE NEED A GRAPHICS OVERHAUL!!!!
it would be awesome if we got halloween yukon
I could my dad faster then I could find this clue
the layton train tracks are related to the settlers, the points of interest say it starts at Layton Lows and goes east, we can see that the train track goes south...
So... Pilgrim Gourd = Pilgrimage
Pilgrimage = Train Tracks
Train Tracks in Layton go to South
Water bottle = Desert
Sonora at South of EEUU
xD
Woah
"Nirvonga"
im hoping for a map in the gambia someday
Malaysia all the way, growers of tea, in the top 10 for diving, tons of water/wetlands, famous rope bridge matching the point of the Layton clue, grow and consume gourds, fills up a gaping gap on the main map, but best of all tons of wildlife
Pretty good theory but isn’t Malaysia mostly monkeys birds and small stuff? I know there are tapir and tiger and elephant however as for other stuff don’t know how well they would be able to fit there 6 animal quota.
Of course I may be wrong that is one place I sadly know very little about
another africa map makes the most sense, its probably hands down the most requested map
Yeah quite a bit, that’s the one I’m rooting for, but then again I’ll probably enjoy any map
and they can use some of the animals in vurhonga. I imagine they had a stroke realising they couldn't copy any animals from previous maps
I dont mind when they do that, but sometimes i feel like its out of laziness
Yeah I could see that, would be kinda sad to see double though cause there are just SO many species they can do
like bison on SRP
I know they did it for moose a lot however in there defense there are moose there and it would feel weird to not have them on like Yukon
What makes you say that?
it's definitely a possibility
Ive said it once and ill say it again, they ruined NA as a whole and all the species, they should have consolidated actual hunters. I know they won't do a complete overhaul of every map though
when the safari lodge was teased everybody thought it was a new african map
throw med ved in with NA
but the hint was about africa cause its an african lodge
yea
they wouldnt do a gourd referencing an african lodge for the release of another lodge
cause a new lodge wont be african based
im losing braincells, adios
Well the gourd points in directions of maps not yet on the game, doubt they would put a lodge in the game of a place that there isn’t a map of
true
i don't personally want a lodge, but gotta think of every possibility (or at least most)
True I get ya
not to come off like more of a jackass, but all of their clues up this point have been VERY straight forward. No one has ever not easily guessed what the new map is going to be based off the clues. Also its about time for a new map, Te Awaroa came out 6 months about for PC, and well fck console
What species do you guy think there will be if it’s an African map? Also think they might have elephant?
they dont have the balls
I don’t know, here’s to hoping though
yeah true
also elephants are very arcady animals to hunt
you just walk up and shoot them in the head
nothing special at all
theres deer goat jaguar was shocked when i saw how much actually live there
elephants would be cool, but it's definitely controversial
Yeah they will most likely make them way more skidish if they did, like lions on vurhonga
Oh that’s pretty sweet
but then you just have a very unrealistic hunting
but hey its cotw
very arcady
i dont mind that
but like, they should focus more on QOL
Yeah, it’s a tough balance between real and what makes the game not too easy or broken
Agreed
recon theres at least 10 species they could do
they need to take a break and revisit maps, AI, models, and do it thoroughly. But most people will want a new map every 6 months instead of a working game.
oh africa they could add 20 atleast in just another savanah based map
What about weapons? They add a new one every map now, any ideas of what it might be?
if they do end up adding elephants something big
probably something like the 700
but africa has been done n after the disaster te awaroa was they need a wow factor i recon
Impossible, someone else who doesnt enjoy shooting escaped petting zoo animals and more red deer?
lol its like hunting in a back garden
but thats exactly why i think africa would be amazing. Everyone would be happy (most everyone) and the animals are great, very requested map, and would probably be well recieved
te awaroa the most disappointing map so far, make me cry being a kiwi
i love that map its unique
blame remi all his fault lol
If i could do anything though, I'd overhaul yukon completely, make it way harder to find animals, make it bigger just open plains, add huge caribou herds, add dall sheep
and make it pay way better
One thing is sure if you want money you go to te awaroa
Just blast that map to peices
because irl thats what alaska is: huge land, hard to get, huge reward
red deer are so grindable that i suprised i didnt get a special
only 3 new animals and who cares about chamois
i grinded them on hirsch like a mad man (thanks @ ormy for the guide btw its amazing)
also redo hirsch cause oh boy it needs something new
idek
Honestly got to say bear n mountain lion on srp huge money
its better than 1 new animal and a bunch of animals we already have
sika my only reason to hunt te awaroa
we need a map with only new animals
goat is mmeehh
oh i forgot, they need to make predators realistic populations, so not 20 cougars and 15 bears per square foot like on SRP
aw spoil sport lol
I just dont see how COTW could suffer from making the game more realistic
at least predator populations
at least fix that
please
it would drive people off the game like me
I am currently grinding for a diamond fallow,but besides that feral pigs are absolutely amazing and I've wanted diamonds of them forever,but I've been lazy on them and haven't grinded in a long time
lmao
So fallow deer are my start
were the stuff about survival always on srp
Then I'm gonna work through the species
why? cause you have to put some effort in a literal hunting game? go play cod if you just wanna shoot things
cause im not the only one that thinks this way
Yeah but it’s a game
you want a real hunting experience go out and actually hunt
Not supposed to be completely realistic. I can just go hunt irl for that
then go out and do it irl
you dont need a game to be realistic to experience the real thing
i agree totally needs more irl be a far better game but maybe after level 25 or so
got 3 diamonds fallow on hirsh so not my drive ATM
I just don't wanna go to a lake and see 200 cougars drinking next to 3 mule deer. is that too much to ask? a somewhat realistic game?
thats highly exagerated
Honestly speaking here, New Zealand is one of the most popular hunting destinations in the world
more like 3 cougars and 20 mule deer
20 cougars 3 mule deer
Fact that pretty much all the huntable animals there are invasives is another matter lol
do you even play the game
lmao yes ofc i do
Cougars dont drink next to mules
yep many more species of deer that could of been added
Mostly because mules tend to panic and fuck the hell off
not enought to back up your claims of too many carnivores in one spot
I mean...
more then 3 is too many in one spot
if you ask me carnivores are rare i see more deer than anything and its getting annoying i get happy when i see a predator
Cougars are overpopulated
its like finaly a fricken mountain lion
The rest are "fine"
wayyyy over populated
i want a diamond RM elk
just to say remi warren was hunting new zealand when te awarora dropped now hes hunting hawaii opps
Of course, but I wouldnt be unhappy with what we got
over populated would be acceptable if you counted the fact that cougars pumas and mountain lions are the same animal
i think i phrase that wrong
couagars dont love to be right next to each other
could of swapped the reds for a different deer
No.
reds are everywhere
Red deer are THE reason most people hunt in NZ
cough reddeersuck cough
It would be like Yukon without moose
what i ment is if they add another big cat in the cougar family im gonna be sad
theyre not lmao
cause we have 3 and they all look the same
PEAK REALISM
3?
Bears dont have the "scare behaviour"
wtf is a bear doing with pronghorn
Look at all these guys just chilling eh
they in every map..nearly
getting prongy
No clue why, Im guessing because they are older
You were saying?
lol
actually the puma is the South American Sub species but yeah your right
they are still the same family
yeah
bear about to ambush any minute
they all look the same look in your lodges
Prey being scared by predators only really started happening after Parque, and then it was only cougars
I dunno he looks pretty chill
As for that... black bears are somewhat chill for a predator
im confused, theres 2 of those animals
your saying theres 3
the puma mountain lion and cougar
SRP and parque
red deer are so cool, but it's getting old at this point
Mountain lions/cougars are the same animal
isnt the cougar in the game
mountain lion IS a cougar, puma has some legit differences
yeah
ill have to put a puma and mountain lion together to see if it has a difference in the game
Aye but at that point it would be the location that would need work
You cant have NZ without red deer
Any more than you can have Australia without feral hogs and rabbits
I wanted Himalayan tahr on te awaroa 😔
i do agree im just sick of them on so many maps
it says on the wiki page the puma is the same as the mountain lion
Same
because it is
someone said its not
oh
yes but swap them for something else, or dont add them to any more maps
well the physical apperence
i mean they have different names but that doesn't change anything
Why not?
The puma is generally a term used for said animal in south america
If they are in the area, and already ingame, they should be on the map
you not got a diamond red yet huh?
a puma and a mountain lion are two different names for the same animal
Especially if they are an important species for it
puma mountain lion and cougar are the same animal just have different names from there locations
While cougar is more of north usa along with mountain lion
Oh I got my truRed diamond on the first day
its still the same animal
Its all about your preference on how you say it
nice
They are the same animal
I just think they should be on the maps they should be on
i thought the cougar was in the game too
Well yes
Like it or not, red deer are a staple species in so many popular hunting destinations it would be odd not to add them
Down here in Florida we call them the Florida panther
way more than that trust me
wow really
There's a whole ton of regional names for mountain lions
cougar, panther, mountain lion, puma
Catamount is another
That was the other one
I was thinking of in my head
But yes anyway
yea, I'm originally from Florida, used to panthers
At this point we wont see maps without reused species regardless
Australia would have ferals, Hawaii would have ferals...
anyone got a melanesic mountain loin?
Any european maps would have red deer, likely roes as well
the map i recomended would only have 1 reused animal the wild boar
but they could remove that if they wanted too
@karmic ruin I'd be worried if my loin was melanistic. lol
but the idea introduces like 10 species of new birds and a baboon
Reason: Duplicated text
pfft
I REALLY dont want to see a map focused on bird hunting
It just doesnt interest me as much
Same
Like dont get me wrong, they are good for easy money
I wouldn't mind a map that does have lots of waterfowl
And filling out empty walls
But nothing that is just them
we dont have enough birds and there are people that didnt like pure goat hunting maps too
Like Florida
But they are just not as "fun" as other animals
theres a ton of tiny plaques but nothing to put them on im sick of seeing 50 mallards all over my walls
Fix the waterfowl
If they did a waterfowl map I feel that they would have to add retrievers along with it
*mallards, teals, rabbits/hares and harlequins
For me, it's more the way ground cover is done in the game. Makes it a royal pain to hunt bunnies and turkeys. Don't need a whole map full of invisible critters
I'm gonna shoot them all and get tons of diamonds😈😈😈
If youre using the glitch you can put certain bigger animals on them as "euromounts"
im never gonna have a labrador again
we need something like quail or pheasants
Adding a bunch of upland birds and pointer would be sick too
Questions what area they'd do for that
Scotland maybe, but that would mean more red deer lol
i mentioned the location theres literaly a hunting reserve in west africa thats mostly birds
gambia i think i was
Africa map with sand grouse
well they could make it have the birds but also spred the hunting range to add more animals cause the gambia is just not the right layout for a map
it had phesants and the sand grouse and doves and pigeons and other birds ive never seen before which also look interesting and the baboon i would love to hunt
I'd prefer if they stuck with the current "formula"
for the clue though i think they are gonna do something to layton lakes
1-2 birds/small game, max
i feel like primates would be off the table simply cause EW would have to make a new model for that
Lmao
well im sure they know how to model better than me
If it's africa I'd rather have it be guineafowl, if there was to be a bird
i still cant make a fricken low poly to get a base done so i have to start from the circle you get when you start
i cant make the dang thing mirror
we need more tiny game for the small plaques
chipmunks for instance would be interesting
any type of bird on africa would be sweet
like, imagine this
there are pest control that hunt squirrels and chipmunks
Would fit right on the turkey rig
they add a flush option for the dogs
What we need is for them to relax/remove the limitations on placing trophies
and you can send them in to the tall grass to spook out some birds
Then you wouldnt need to worry about that
That way we could just fill the walls up like this
But yes
Map discussions and all.
There was some images floating around that hinted at pointers and labs coming to the game at some point
Yeah from the YouTube vid of the motion capture for dogs, I know they will add more breeds, it will probably be one in between each map release
Iguana 🦎 too. 😜
I just want a new whitetail map😩
Personally I think the gourd looks like a Mexican bottle gourd, but I think maybe the type of gourd actually isn’t important. We were told to think outside the box, and what does Layton have in common with gourds. Layton has whitetail deer, whitetail deer will eat several types of gourds and squashes and such, I know that because they tear up the garden yearly (Michigan here). The map border for Layton has a rather boxy shape I think. So what I’m thinking is we’re getting a whitetail map, might be Mexico, might be eastern US, maybe Florida or somewhere else in the south, personally I hope it’s a midwestern US map but anything with deer and ducks is fine with me.
Agreed^
Wait ur in Michigan to BRO SAME
What I miss
I'm dying to know
nothing really just talking about what the new map could be I think
Its probably a map in deez
Has anyone climbed up mt leviathan and looked outside the map for something
Cuz she said think outside the box and every maps border makes a box 😉
^ good idea, I hadn’t thought of that!
All ik is I need new whitetail map cause fuck finding drink zones is a pain I had to reset bec of the one glitch that made gold's diamonds and stuff I just reset today so I decided to play hardcore mode sorta what scarecrow is doing
It's actually more fun bec Im using the dog more
Probably first week of June I got no idea
So if Layton might be the second clue would that mean we’re getting another USA map
I mean it would also be a similiarity between the gourd and Layton
Believe i would like Africa 100 times more but
It seems to be somewhere in America
Cant be 100% at this point though
If Rexio is right about it being a pilgrim gourd that could be a clue to location. The whitetail deers scientific name is odocoileus virginianus, and is commonly referred to as the Virginia whitetail deer, there were lots of pilgrims and settlers in Virginia, maybe a southern/eastern US map. That might be grasping for straws but it’s a workable theory if it is a pilgrim gourd.
Yep
i wish it was africa, but i agree america is likely
wait, pilgrim, the pilgrims landed in north america
specifically the northeast
in massachusetts
and it’s surrounding places
could be a maine/massachusetts map?
^ going off the pilgrim theory I’d say Virginia or Massachusetts most likely. Further north to Maine could be fun too though
being someone from rural massachusetts, it’d be cool to have a map like that
since it’d be close to home yk
I hope it isn’t eastern US because then we would get almost no new species
true that
Eastern US is superior
could give us bobcat tho
It’d be cool for the change in landscape though and since it’d have nice white tails
I’d be down if it had a lot of different small game
water based animals
I just hope we are all overlooking something major
beaver 😳
And it's actually Africa
me too
Did we get something else?
this has been a clue that the community is really stumped by
I am actively overlooking it
like all the other times, we’ve seemed to have gotten it quite quickly
All the new stuff is in pinned messages
I’ve seen all that
Yeah we wont get more
Thought something else came out
We are supposed to make further deductions on what we have now
I am just trying to figure it out because being so in the dark is incredibly annoying
i decided to have a little look on google maps to see if there’s an actual place named layton
there is
in utah
I don’t think beavers will be added, unless I’m overlooking some place most states regulate them as furbearers and they are only allowed to be trapped.
true
Ok. I have a theory that I’ve been working out and the more I look into it the more it works.
Enlighten us
The map is western PA in the USA.
i have totally not blasted a couple beavers before tho
So the gourd I believe is in reference to a song used during the civil war to disguise the Underground Railroad. It was titled follow the drinking gourd.
Meggles hint today was what do they have in common and I believe it’s lakes. As in the Great Lakes.
The Underground Railroad would take you to the Great Lakes so you could escape slavery.
This puts us in ne USA
I also believe the hint of some have figured it out and some haven’t is pointing you to the original clue. And dive deeper is telling you to look at it again
I think the 3 cans represent the 3 rivers of western pa
And the placement of the gourd is south of them. Also showing the placement of the start of the Underground Railroad.
The string is laid out like a river. Possibly the Mississippi which would take you to the Underground Railroad
There is no other clue on the map. Layton is the hint for lakes. And you’re going to follow the drinking gourd.
We are going western pa. I am almost certain.
It could bring pheasents, 2nd whitetail map and more good small game
And the theory sounds valid
I think you mightve gotten it
I’m struggling to see how you connected it to PA. If you follow the Mississippi River to the Great Lakes you’re in Illinois or Indiana. The next states to the East are Ohio or Michigan. PA is a little bit of a stretch
I wanna ping a Meggles to look at this but i think that would be fruitless lol
The Mississippi takes you to Ohio. That’s where most of the ugrr is.
That’s how people got there. They would take the Mississippi River north.
I think hunting beaver is usually legal. It's just easier to trap them, so that's how most ppl go after them
There is beaver hunting in PA. Just saying.
Layton also has connecting rivers. Might not be as relevant but might also be the thing that they have in common. I’m not sure.
The Mississippi River connects to the Ohio River at the Illinois/Kentucky border but the Mississippi River absolutely does not flow into Ohio itself. If you follow the Mississippi north, you end up in southern Lake Michigan on the Illinois Indiana border area.
Here in Michigan it’s 100% illegal to hunt for beaver, unless you have a damage control permit from the DNR. We can only trap them for fur and meat. If you shoot them as damage control you have to report the carcass to the DNR and dispose of it.
I’m not sure if the Mississippi thing is part of the clue tbh. I’ve just always thought that sting placement looks like a river.
So that may not be part of it. The ugrr and 3 rivers...I’m almost positive that’s where it’s pointing you.
I like that part of the theory, I just don’t think PA is the final stop. If the ugrr theory is right, and following the rivers is the answer itd more likely put us in a state just north of the Mason Dixon line where slaves were then free. So Illinois, Indiana, maybe Michigan or Ohio. And hell, it could be PA, but that’s going further north and east than necessary for that theory to work.
85% is in Ohio. So maybe it’s there or just in the Great Lakes area in general. But white tails are like a religion in western pa. And so is pheasant and archery.
And if they really want a white tails map western pa makes the most sense. Could also mean a new bow drops with the map.
Well if the hint is Layton lakes. In Arizona there is place called Layton lakes so gotta just see where the gourd would fit in
The same argument could be made for most of the Midwest though. Here in Michigan, November 15th is basically a holiday (opening day deer gun season). We also have pheasant, turkey, a major part of the Mississippi flyway for waterfowl, black bear, and archery hunting is huge here too. Any of East or Midwest are prime candidates for a whitetail map with just about any of the other animals I just mentioned.
Well that makes sense then. So maybe it’s broader? But if the theory is true it puts us somewhere in the Great Lakes region.
And with the ugrr part I had to be Illinois Indiana Ohio or pa
It has to be*
Better not be another Midwest map I'll be pissed I'd be happy with Mexico, africa, or asia
Weird. Here in CO, you just have to buy a furbearer permit, but you can kill them with any normal method of take. What are you supposed to do if the beaver's not dead already when you check your traps?
I’m thinking broader like the Great Lakes area. They might specify PA, who knows, and I’d be okay with it because of the hunting available, but I’m thinking Great Lakes area overall. Also we don’t have a Midwest map yet Goldie, several western and northern maps but nothing this side of the Mississippi River.
Still same type of environment If we get another us map its proof they don't care what we want
Falcon, in Michigan if a beaver is still alive in the trap you can dispatch it with a rim fire caliber like .22 or .17, that’s an acceptable method of dispatch but the method of take would technically be trapping. But we mostly use body grippers or drowner sets, 99% of the time the beaver is dead in the trap.
Goldie, way different environment. We dont have mountains in Michigan, I promise you that. The porcupine mountains in the UP are more like big hills compared the the real mountains. We mostly have farm land and mixes of pine forest and hardwood like oak and maple and birch.
We don't have any real restriction other than having to check your traps every 24 hours if you're trapping. You're even allowed to spotlight them at night.
I was wondering, with the clue chat if we say the correct clue or whatever in here will the devs tell us or is it just a guessing game till they come forward and tell us?
A guessing game
My guess—-
Outside the Box— box has four corners
So Arizona , Colorado, New Mexico & Utah region.
Layton— is a city in Utah
Diverse animals in this region too as well as some incredible scenery— including but not limited to the Grand Canyon, devils tower & so much more.
What say you?
@here
That portion of the US— is called the four corners btw.
outside the box means not taking things in a literary way...
and you are taking this in a literary way xD
We shall see— there’s other things that pointed me there..
Layton isnt in Utah (I'm pretty sure) it's In the Pacific northwest which includes washington and oregon. Utah is more desert not swampy
im back after the hockey game looks like alot happened update me
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRGSgiTc7Jk a good breakdown of the route the song "follow the drinking gourd" would take you.
Have we discovered anything new yet?
Clue 1: The Gourd
Clue 2: Layton
Clue 3: What do Layton and gourd bottle have in common?
No physical clues on the map
besides the gourd
My conclusion:
Gourd it's a two-way clue, is a Pilgrim Gourd and Water Bottle
In South Layton we can see a lot of history about the pilgrims/settlers,
the Layton train tracks are related to the settlers, the CODEX say it starts at Layton Lows and goes east, we can see that the train track goes south...
Sonora Desert is towards the south of EEUU..
Water bottle = Desert
(Arizona or Sonora Mexico)
im not id be happy with one
Same
I'd like an American desert or Northern Europe personally.
I wanna shoot musk ox and walruses
Why walruses, they just sit on the side of the ocean?
I want the tusks for my trophy lodge
musk ox would be so cool
Should have been more clear. I wasn’t saying that Layton lakes the map was in Utah. But there is a city called Layton in Utah & IF Layton is the clue—-
I don’t get why so many people are “sick” of North America, there’s 3 NA maps, and 6 maps spanning the rest of the world. Is there some gaps on the world map, sure, but it’s not overwhelmingly North America by any means.
favorite theory so far
it’s honestly just because i want something more exotic than what i have here at home yk, the reason i’m playing the game is to get an not irl hunting experience
what is the max weight for a coyote?
just asking here bc nobody is in that chat
That’s fair, I can understand that, we all have our reasons for playing. I want more NA because I like maps that feel like home because it gives me something that feels familiar when I can’t be out in the woods irl when season is closed or I’m tagged out for season.
yea i prefer the na maps because im from Canada and im not the biggest fan of other maps there still good just feels weird almost lol
i guess its because 3 NA maps of 6 maps is still half of the selection based in one country
NA is super diverse and its good that EW took advantage of that by putting the US reserves in very different places each time, but at the same time another region that's untouched like indonesia or the middle east would be more interesting to many people
personally i am not opposed to another north american map, i would just rather that it's not the very next reserve since we got one two reserves ago
NA isn’t 3 of 6 maps though. It’s 3 of 9.
Maybe the gourd is a reference to the song follow the drinking gourd
Someone posted here over the weekend the previous Survey they had with the questions for which location we would want the next map to be.. does someone have it handy?
Gosh, look how cramped that is
I really wish the map would be in southern Georgia Louisiana Florida area
my bad, i thought you meant 3 of 6 in your original message
if we're being honest, there aren't a whole lot of game animals in the US that haven't been covered. pretty sure the next map will be something a little more exotic
Florida would be best ngl
Nutria beaver whitetail deer wild boar wood ducks possibly squirrels black bear bobcat coyote teal doves possibly alligators raccoon muskrat
Because I'm a biased person
Ok but guys
I'm very excited to see this new map
Ngl
But eveyone,keep the clocks Rollin,and wake up on time
me too hank
I think tomorrow will have something good in terms of the map
Either a third clue,trailer reveal,or reveal stream
I'm crossing my fingers for a reveal stream because my excitement is very large
Gn everyone
good night sleep goods
U do the same
I pray it’s not a NA map, or a whole system overhaul
Cotw needs it
None of the NA form well or are fluid besides Layton
They’re so random, like walking around SRP seeing 10 bears drinking next to an antelope and bighorn sheep
Also mountain goats don’t live in the mountains
exactly
@midnight moon I agree man we need another African map or Asian map.
Yeah fs
SRP is a very disappointing map
Had the most potential out of any as well
Bears, wolves, caribou, moose, ducks, fox, all on other maps
i wish SRP had wolves
Srp needs a major overhaul
And Yukon
If they overhaul medved though that would be nice
They should just put gray wolves on medved they would fit perfectly
Yeah
Yukon and medved would be almost exact copies at that point
I feel you but medved needs some love it’s a cool map but the animals are so boring.
Like ik cotw is Arcady, but like, I want it to be somewhat realistic
Yeah but wolves ain’t it
medved is such a boring map for me
Hopefully ultimate hunting is more realistic than cotw
Yea
is that coming on console?
People are holding UH to a god tier and kick cotw to the curb, I don’t think that’ll happen
I believe so
Yeah
I do however think it will put major stress on EW to have quality over quantity content
I agree ultimate hunting will have to be insanely good to get people to leave cotw
No
with the way EW is working no it won’t
If flinter and Zaggi like it, all the kids will get it, and if they like it, older people with their own money will also like it because they have good taste
hey man it’s disappointing as fuck for me
Srp is ass don’t tell me otherwise
i don’t like it
ur ass
Make a coherent argument for srp
Zaggi has basically already jumped on the ultimate hunting bandwagon lol
So I agree with you there
Yeah again the god like standard people are holding it to- it might be good, but probably not that good
u can find a lot of animals, easy diamonds, and ur an asshole
The game makes hard rewards easy to get so it’s fun- @tough wharf
then play classic
Honestly as long as ultimate hunting is just good enough to push COTW to be better I will be happy
Same
yeah no, srp just sucks, love the other maps tho
SRP is a good map to learn the game, plenty of animals everywhere open lines of sight.
It AMAZES me people just want cotw to be some COD blasting shooter where every animal is a diamond
Like do you have any patience?
Why would you not want a realistic experience
I know I think there are to manny diamonds now I miss the OG days where it was a accomplishment to get a diamond
it amazes me that ppl want WW2 packs and zombies
?
like go play fricking call of duty
Is this guy drunk
Probably
God this server gives me aids
It definitely does
has anyone found 2nd clue?
its layton
who tf uses gifs bro
Wait wtf do Layton and a gourd have in common
water
layton has more water than every map
louisiana bayou hunting
But if we are still going with the African gourd thing it could signify jungle/rainforest
Well i see the pinned message now
I'm happy tomorrow is the stream and this nightmare will end.. at least I hope they will unveil it
Lmao
all the reserves are getting snack bars
Sprite has nothing to do with it
Lol
The "spirit" pop cans have been in game since cuatro
Yeah
Mexico would be more south than East really. Straight south East from Wa would land you in Florida, a place with gourds and a lot of water, and a lot of yet to be explored wildlife in the game. I’m banking on a swamp map in the American south, I’d prefer the Midwest but I’m not that lucky. Mexico would still be pretty cool though.
Or maybe its texas
Mexico is not directly south of Washington lol
How about we stop guessing and wait til tomorrow to find out maybe they will tell us 😂
Hey this chat is literally for guessing
the chair looks to be facing more east than southeast
Well in that case Ima have to say it's probably mexico idk but we will find out tomorrow hope it's Mexico tho
I said it’s more south than East not directly south. Straight south East would be Florida, or the Texas coast even. Texas would be cool, whitetail deer, lots of waterfowl, could even add sand hill cranes, a lot of exotics to hunt too
According to the compass in the pic yeah it's kinda east
If not then I'm ok with it as long as there is whitetail 😂
how far east? 🤔
Take a pic of the map
one step head of ya
Right as I said xD
i was just going up here just to find a tent spot
