[keen warren]

Also if water is the tie, africa has intense dry season so it could fit

[midnight moon]

@frail tusk Viking just hates australia with passion

[pearl hatch]

i dont its just gonna be boring lol

[warm basin]

We just got a NZ map Australia is most likely not it

[high hill]

5 days ago

"Layton Keddy got on his bicycle and disappeared into the Australian wilderness, assuming he wouldn’t be missed. He couldn’t have been more wrong."

maybe he was carrying a gourd

lol

[frail tusk]

mexico would also be boring

[primal birch]

lol even if we are 100% correct on one of our crazy tangents, its not like they are going to come down from the heavens and tell us...They will just continue to watch and laugh, and pull the strings 😛

[frail tusk]

unless its like down south in the jungles

[pearl hatch]

id play australia if they had rusa and sambar

[midnight moon]

Thank you

Here’s some people who’d disagree with me even if i say the next Dlc is downloadable

[primal birch]

anyhoo its the first nice day without rain here in a while, so I am going to gasp go outside. Wish me luck.

laters!

[high hill]

have a good time @primal birch !

[midnight moon]

Don’t get attacked by a puma

[warm basin]

Hes gonna come back with some random ass book from the 50s that has Australia mentioned once

[high hill]

spider*

[pearl hatch]

lol

rons video is the best theory id say so far

[midnight moon]

Me:Vivid do we have Turkeys in cotw Vivid: No

[high hill]

uploaded 31 minutes ago, spicy. gonna check this out

[warm basin]

Calm down herbert

[high hill]

i love how we now have two videos basically confirming aus and mexico lol

[warm basin]

The content creators run wild

[midnight moon]

Yea Herbert lmao

[pearl hatch]

the community is split three ways mexico africa and australia

[midnight moon]

and Rocky mountains

[pearl hatch]

what

[midnight moon]

We need another copy pasted map

[pearl hatch]

we have rockys

[warm basin]

Noone is on rocky mountains

😂

[midnight moon]

..... saying nothing

[high hill]

i want africa but i just don't see it

[midnight moon]

nobody understands irony these days

[warm basin]

Theres plenty of ways it could be africa but yall found one dude named layton that went to Australia and lost y'alls shit

[pearl hatch]

so true

[midnight moon]

Tbh just laughed while reading that last part

@warm basin Would you like a Mexico map with many deer species ?

[warm basin]

I'd rather It be neither one

[midnight moon]

And desert sheep and stuff

[warm basin]

But I see them doing Mexico before Australia

[wind ridge]

http://hunting.sonora.gob.mx/principal.php?op=13

[warm basin]

And what is this

[frail tusk]

knowing ew they're not adding any birds, so the only new species would be peccaries and bobcats

and maybe coatis

brockets are also an option

[midnight moon]

Could we see Jaguars ?

[warm basin]

We could

[wind ridge]

illegal in sonora

[high hill]

euro bison are endangered too tho

but oh my god imagine jaguars jumping up into trees

and swimming

in WATER!

😮

[midnight moon]

Jaguars can’t climb up trees........

[warm basin]

They can......

[midnight moon]

I knooooow just joking

[warm basin]

Hmm

[granite pulsar]

i think they have a steady population now

[uneven bloom]

Yeah euro bison are steady

they were endangered

[vague locust]

So what are the current theories that you guys have right now? Africa has to be out of question?

[wind ridge]

1 to 9 years of prison for hunt a jaguar + $50.000

in mexico

[spiral dawn]

👀

[high hill]

my ranking would be Aus, Mexico, Africa

[keen warren]

Alrighty then that's out of thequestion

[spiral dawn]

zebra guy is the only theory that makes sense and connects everything

tbh

[uneven bloom]

likely mountain lion again then

[high hill]

has anyone been asking for a mexico map tho?

like everyone's been wanting australia forever

[uneven bloom]

people really want another whitetail map

[high hill]

fair

[warm basin]

I dont see why tho whitetail on layton are ez

[high hill]

i know i want one

[uneven bloom]

I despise Layton

it's got maybe three spots on it that I actually like

[vague locust]

What connects layton to fernando? Both are in America? Both have waterfowl?

[warm basin]

The clues

[wind ridge]

some of us have been hunting in layton for 3 years, it's gotten boring xD

[uneven bloom]

new map might have a new duck

[high hill]

btw completely random question, do great ones as lvl 10s have insane senses or are they just as spookable as normal diamonds?

[wind ridge]

Arid region

[warm basin]

I've been hunting layton since launch

[wind ridge]

is the clue xD

[vague locust]

Is layton arid? It's pretty swampy and lakey to me

[pearl hatch]

arid is dry and like a desert

[tacit current]

when is the next clue?

[fast solstice]

Do you think if it were Mexico

[warm basin]

Wrong chat

[fast solstice]

Would the rams look the same

[graceful saffron]

It's gonna be mexico

[warm basin]

Yes

[fast solstice]

Or more tanish

[graceful saffron]

It has to be mexico

[fast solstice]

Cuase im excited for dessert bighorn sheep

[uneven bloom]

if not desert bighorn,

Pronghorn are found in some areas of mexico

[fast solstice]

If its not Mexico i dont know ultimate hunting looks real nice

[warm basin]

What do u mean it looks nice we havnt even seen gameplay😂

[graceful saffron]

😂

[fast solstice]

Haha so funny im dying 😐

[midnight moon]

UH is bullshit....

Fr now

[graceful saffron]

Man I'm wondering when the new Xboxes will be in Damn stores

[midnight moon]

Look at their graphics on other games

terrible

horrible

[fast solstice]

ultimate hunting has what people want and plus the graphics are better and behaviors aswell in the trailer and models of animals

[pearl hatch]

they bought everything

[warm basin]

That trailer was made to look great

[uneven bloom]

it's going to be one of those "too good to be true" scenarios

[fast solstice]

UH is probably gonna be really good and your over here like nah it sucks

[warm basin]

Well bc its practically hunting sim 3

[fast solstice]

1.2 million in a hunting game can bring a really nice gane out

[oblique tiger]

Arizona New Mexico Texas & Mexico —region.

Just make sure to model TJ & Revolution street so i can relive my youth & have a drink or two after hunts. 😜

[warm basin]

Looks at cyberpunk...

[pearl hatch]

worst game ever

[keen warren]

Cyberpunk brings up bad memories of stuff like this

[fast solstice]

Cyber punk is garbage

Plus this is hunting game

But like this map we'll see how good UH is

[oblique tiger]

Beautiful game— ever ambitious—- loved most of it— wish Rockstar— would acquire & finish— what a masterpiece that could be.

[pearl hatch]

Yea

Cause what they did with red dead and do that with cyberpunk it would be good red dead is prob rockstars best game quality wise

[spring minnow]

Every time I check here and discussion has derailed and fell off the cliff

[uneven bloom]

We're still no closer to figuring the clues out, that's why

[oblique tiger]

Gta V is STILL played by tons— but RDR is fun & just well done. Just started playing again for change of pace— go stand under the waterfall & catch fish. Lol— who thinks of all those tiny details. RS does.

[pearl hatch]

#🦝︴off-topic

[fringe oasis]

Mexico : Another copy and paste map with the same animales again in again. Should call the game : The hunter Call Of North America.
If is Mexico be ready : Pecari (New) a re skin of Lynx called Bobcat, a reskin of bighorn sheep called borrego Cimarron, Puma, Coyote, White Tail, Mule, Pronghorn and thats all.
After all, Arid regions of Mexico doesn't have much more species than that ones.

[vague locust]

You're goddamn right

[full crystal]

It's also one of the most expensive video games ever made. They spent over a quarter billion dollars on it

[uneven bloom]

and frankly I think we've reached the point where even though a location has been deemed "most likely" now this channel's going to primarily be a complaint box of people who don't like it

[trim spire]

In my opinion, the biggest clue is Layton Lake. Why are we hunting there? The answer is a whitetail deer and it's definitely related to the new DLC. The development of a new map may explain why the whitetail is currently behaving as it is behaving.

[jade thicket]

we dont know where it is yet so hopefully a new clue is on the way

[midnight moon]

LMAO GET A LOAD OF THSI BULLSHIT EW babies red deer and like pussies, and every NA sucks and is a disgrace. The only decent one is Layton. Don’t say EW ponders North America because they do not.

[jade thicket]

maybe by the weekend

[round kite]

Why are we even arguing it can be anything just wait and see what will come

[blissful scarab]

I think its a japanes map

[fringe oasis]

Wharever. What I said is true and you dont have any argument to go against. If you have. Just say it

[blissful scarab]

Hunting pandas 🐼

[warm basin]

That's illegal

[blissful scarab]

Not in a game

[uneven bloom]

that would literally be one of the worst moves any company could make

[warm basin]

The country may ban the game

[uneven bloom]

the amount of horrible publicity that would get would definitely sink the game, if not the genre altogether, because if one game does it why wouldn't others?

[blissful scarab]

I think it could be a africa map where you Hunt giraffe and elefant also

[warm basin]

Tbf that's the argument UH fanboys use

[uneven bloom]

and thus, the conversation topic of this channel comes full circle once again

[warm basin]

Agian its endangered and Cotw tells a story about how hunting endangered animals are horrible

[blissful scarab]

Hmm

Maybe a polar reserv where you Can hunt polar bears and pinguins

[uneven bloom]

polar bears are very close to being endangered.

[midnight moon]

Every NA map is extremely unrealistic. There is 4 red deer maps. 1 whitetail map (the most popular animal to hunt in the world)

But yeah Ew loves NA

[fringe oasis]

Fill your Hunting Lodge with cute Animals
New DLC : Adorable Animals : Pandas, Manatees, Kuokas, Koalas, Wombats, Baby white seals

[full crystal]

That's why a paleo map would be nice. Can put plenty of nice big animals on the map, and nobody can whinge because they're already extinct

[blissful scarab]

@fringe oasis Hahahha Yea

[uneven bloom]

past article said no extinct animals in cotw

[blissful scarab]

Maybe a under water map where you can hunt fish and sharks

It would be cool

[fringe oasis]

The world is not north america my friend. The most popular place to hunt in the world is Africa. Is LA MECA.
Off course not to many hunters can afford a safari there. But every hunters wants to face, at least one time, the black dead in the African bush

[midnight moon]

They’re gonna be extinct when I’m done with them 😈

[midnight moon]

Africa is not the most popular place to hunt

[uneven bloom]

manatees - just got off the endangered list.
koalas - likely going to become endangered in the near future.
pandas - VERY STUPID IDEA, would probably get the game banned in a few countries

and the thing about baby seals is one of the favorite things of groups like PETA in trying to get hunting banned altogether.

[midnight moon]

NA hands down by a mile

[blissful scarab]

Ostricht Hunt dlc

[fringe oasis]

Yes it is. Where the most famous hunters make their careers.
The home of the Big Five.
Where the hunting prices are higher. An people pay for it.

[fringe oasis]

Add baby emperor penguin. Is just a joke bro

[exotic palm]

That's both of your guys opinions no need in arguing over that.

[fringe oasis]

Blixen, Roosvelt Hemmingway, Selous, Hunter, Sharpe, Pondoro, Patterson. Almost all hunters have their books in their bookshelves.
All make their careers in the wildest continent. Africa.

[exotic palm]

But you saying "the best hunting is in Africa" is an opinion it depends what you like to hunt.

So stop acting like you're above everyone else, everyone has their own opinion

And this really is off topic came here to see if anyone found the clue yet

[languid nexus]

Any DD33 fans here?

I have a question

About the new map

[granite pulsar]

don't forget naked mole rat

[exotic palm]

Don't get me wrong by the way. Right now I want Africa more than anything rn

[fringe oasis]

Is the best and more challenging place to hunt. Is where all hunters of the world wants to go al least one time. I don't know anyone who don't dream with a hunting safari.
Elephant, Lion, Leopard, Hippo, Cape Buffalo, hyaenas, 7 meters crocs, warthogs, countless species of antelopes. Smallest like a hare like the dik dik, bigger like a bull, like the Eland. All kind of horn shapes and sizes.
Nothing similar in other any other continent.

[exotic palm]

In Texas they have ranches to hunt that have alot of rediculous animal species I've never even heard of u can hunt there. If you want to talk about challenging, try going hunting for a bighorn sheep or ibex and come back.

[full crystal]

If we're going to have baby seals, we need a melee weapon pack. Spiked baseball bat oughta do

[uneven bloom]

again

[granite pulsar]

ah yea

nunchucks

[uneven bloom]

that's one of the things that multiple conversation groups want hunting made illegal everywhere altogether for

[full crystal]

sarcasm detector not turned on today?

[fringe oasis]

All good, is just a conversation. I live in the Rockies, I been in India, Southamerica and Africa. And really.... nothing compares with Africa. Im not a hunter in real life (My grandpa was). I'm a wildlife photographer.
I been and I love Yellowstone and Banff in canada, but when you compare the variety and quantity of animals with the African reserves. ... nothing is even close to Kruger, Serengeti, Samburu, Mana Pools, South Lwanga, Masai Mara, Amboselo, Okavango Delta or Etosha

[uneven bloom]

Didn't read like a joke.

and you can't exactly hear sarcasm over text.

[exotic palm]

But back to what I was saying that is your opinion so u don't have to say "this is the best" as if it's fact and not an opinion

[spring minnow]

And none of that matters in the clue chat

[uneven bloom]

still think this channel needs to get closed until we get something solid

it's just going to keep circling back into arguments right now

[blissful scarab]

And I still think we Will get a under water map :))

Layton ”lake”

[keen warren]

What would you even hunt underwater

Manatees?

[midnight moon]

Fish

[keen warren]

But for big game

[manic solstice]

Speargun would be the weapon

[midnight moon]

We xould hunt those beavers 🤷

[blissful scarab]

Fish, shark and whales

[granite pulsar]

whale shark hunting

megaladon could be the great one

[blissful scarab]

Ohhh yes

[manic solstice]

Do we know for sure that the clue being in Layton has to do with the new reserve?

[jade thicket]

no

we all just kinda guessing at what it could mean

its how it is each release we have fun and games trying to work out whats coming

[vague locust]

"fun and games", that's exactly what this chat has seemed like today 😬

[midnight moon]

hahahahahahahahaha

[atomic portal]

There will never be fishing in this game.

[midnight moon]

%

[granite pulsar]

unless the new map is spearfishinf

grab your speargun and hit the water

[blissful scarab]

And after the fishing map I would want to see fishing trap dlc

And hummer dlc

[atomic portal]

Omg

[blissful scarab]

What mate?

[cedar dirge]

I hope they just reveal what it is soon I’m sick of waiting and getting hyped for them to just drop that it is indeed a Mexico map with all the cool animals just being animals we can already hunt and being disappointed.

[granite pulsar]

don't forget a10 dlc

[blissful scarab]

Hahhaa nicee

[manic solstice]

They’ll probably announce it on the next stream

Or just give another clue

[blissful scarab]

The shrimp club

Clue**

[granite pulsar]

there's one tiny shrimp in a specific layton lake that you have to catch with the gourd

[blissful scarab]

Or the new spear gun

[granite pulsar]

you then take it to the secret cave and knock on the secret door 3 times and it will open

[cedar dirge]

I watched the stream yesterday thinking they were going to reveal it but was sadly disappointed. I hope your right that they do it next stream.

[granite pulsar]

you place the gourd on a shiny throne and the new map will be revealed

[blissful scarab]

It would be cool

I feel that we are the only ones with imaginations here all other guesses are so boring

You nead to be creative guys

[frail tendon]

new drinking water DLC

you dehydrate

[blissful scarab]

Yea Thats a good one

[frail tendon]

cool

[cedar dirge]

Honestly a Jurassic hunting DLC would be really

Cool

[blissful scarab]

Wow there we have some Big stuff

[cedar dirge]

They could add the 700 nitro express so we can take down a trex that would be so insane

[granite pulsar]

700 would probably do nothing to a trex

[blissful scarab]

Yea and have it in our trophy lodge

[cedar dirge]

Surprisingly it would u watched a video one time on what caliber would be good for a trex if they where still alive and from the studies they did 500 and up could kill one but the 700 nitro expires or the awesomely named 577 trex would have enough kinetic energy.

[silver fog]

Would rather have a new game for that

[blissful scarab]

Small insect dlc we Can now Hunt ants Spiders and snakes

[frail tendon]

with what

[cedar dirge]

@silver fog I agree with you on that hunter primal 2 would be sick

[blissful scarab]

Fishing roods

[frail tendon]

lmao

bonk

[blissful scarab]

I think our gueses are geting close

[cedar dirge]

Definitely close lol

[karmic ruin]

does the strap on the gourd have anything to do with binding together???🤔

[blissful scarab]

But this is a serious question are we 100% that the dlc is a new reserve?

[midnight mist]

no

more like 90% sure

[blissful scarab]

Ok

[midnight mist]

best bet rn is mexico

[blissful scarab]

Ok thats cool

[exotic palm]

Yea mexico

[blissful scarab]

What cab we hun there

Crocodile?

[midnight mist]

Whitetail

Rock Sheep

[spiral dawn]

🥱

[midnight mist]

Coues Deer

Turkey

[frail tendon]

do we eat sand

or rocks

[midnight mist]

Quail

[keen belfry]

Bobcat, peccaries

[midnight mist]

Brocket Deer

Prairie Dog would be interesting

[blissful scarab]

Yea thats sound cool

[midnight moon]

Hi TK 🙂

[granite pulsar]

yea with salt guns

[twin marlin]

Why do you hate the game you know almost nothing bout?
Why in this chat lol, how it supposed to be connected with cotw clues.

[spiral dawn]

This is clue chat** (*off topic cause we just argue with each other)

[twin marlin]

I kinda got that

I wonder why it was even made

Cause iy does not differ fron general chat in any way

[uneven bloom]

it's supposed to be for clue debate but the clues we got this time are all too vague

hence everyone just arguing endlessly

[twin marlin]

Thats a rhetorical question

[supple ledge]

It’s gonna be Mexico

If whitetail and bobcats are added top tier map

[vivid cosmos]

Because if the devs let our minds wonder we just get tangled in poop

[vivid cosmos]

Hopefully

[high hill]

pls EW tell us the suspense is 2much4us

[spiral dawn]

Still havent seen a convincing argument between the clues all linked together = mexico

[manic solstice]

I hope they’d keep it to only two species already in the game

[supple ledge]

Fernando done it for me tbh

I’d rather have Africa

[manic solstice]

Same

[supple ledge]

But I do love whitetail

[manic solstice]

I feel like they would do a reskin of the lynx for bobcat, even if they are smaller irl

[supple ledge]

They aren’t the same so I hope they do put some effort into it

[vivid cosmos]

So you saw the Meggles recap of the clues?

[spiral dawn]

Yep

[vivid cosmos]

RonMCTuve came and told us to listen the song Fernando

[spiral dawn]

The clues have to be linked together to come out with the answer

How do you link the song to the other clues obviously

[charred vault]

Layton and parque both have ducks

What if it’s a waterfowl map

There was a survey a while back about waterfowl

[supple ledge]

I hope it’s not just a waterfowl map

[charred vault]

Same

[supple ledge]

I do want waterfowl but not a map with just waterfowl

[charred vault]

Then it gives them the ability to add a second dog a retriever

[vivid cosmos]

Which is a song about a guy who crosses el Rio Grande which is another name for Rio bravo added to the gourd that is a common way of carrying water I think is a desert map on the other side of Rio bravo

and it crosses the river on the side if layton

I know there is no crossing from washington but layton was the original US map

[charred vault]

Hot

[vivid cosmos]

But we have no conclusive link between anything

But is as solid as the Australia theory

Damn you got me there

[midnight moon]

Damn

👍

[vivid cosmos]

Why did you delete that?

It was fun

[midnight moon]

I did not

A mod did it

prob

[vivid cosmos]

O.o TK did lol

[dire whale]

can you guys atleast try and stay on topic

[midnight moon]

🙂

[vivid cosmos]

I was

[midnight moon]

👍

[vivid cosmos]

I explained why Mexico is on the list

[dire whale]

was just a generalisation, having looked back through this chat from today there are some parts I'm reading and its actually pretty good and logical...other bits are just rubbish

[vivid cosmos]

Oh yeah I was into the shitposting earlier, sorry man I'll just talk when it's about the clues

[inner swan]

When/how did the song become a clue?...

[vivid cosmos]

Ron suggested it

[cunning sparrow]

ronmctube found a song

[inner swan]

Ahhh

[vivid cosmos]

Because Meggs said that Parque Fernando is a clue

That's also Latin America

[midnight moon]

Wait what 😂 when

[vivid cosmos]

Check pinned messages

[midnight moon]

Layton is throwing me off

but

EW is very good at getting the general area of something

example: there’s mentions of a cave spider only found in Oregon on Layton

[vivid cosmos]

Yeah layton is very weird

No one can place it correctly in their theories

[midnight moon]

The other example: Parts of SRP are named after places in Utah (not Colorado as confirmed)

And there is a town named Layton in Utah

And Utah has lots of desert

And is by Arizona and New Mexico

Desert states

So if you see where I’m going with this

[full crystal]

Has anyone actually searched the PF map for clues?

[vivid cosmos]

Dont think so

[glacial wagon]

pf?

don’t answer that

[midnight moon]

Also another insanely crazy theory

[glacial summit]

so what are we looking at as of now? looks like some progress has been made since this morning

are we any closer?

[dire whale]

check the pinned posts

[midnight moon]

Goes something like this: they released a duck hunting survey, and Layton is right next to the Great Salt Lake, the best single place for bird hunting almost anywhere, and the gourd is a good ducks eat (right?) and PF has ducks

Yes I know this theory makes 0 sense

But I’m saying anything at this point lol

[glacial summit]

hmmmm

[midnight moon]

TL;DR duck map

[glacial summit]

so we are getting a duck rework?

[midnight moon]

Yes

[glacial summit]

and do we know if a map is included?

[midnight moon]

But that shouldn’t have anything to do with this clue

Duck rework should be done on its own time

If they greatly improve duck hunting while also making a map that’s great

[glacial summit]

a map that has ducks and hopefully something else to

[midnight moon]

I’m not a huge fan of a duck map

[glacial summit]

me neither

ducks have always taken the backseat for me but if thats what they do thats what they do

[midnight moon]

Not until a few more regions of the world get attention- maybe a 1/4 duck map with a few species

But main focus elsewhere

[glacial summit]

i want more big game

[midnight moon]

Yeah same

[primal birch]

I guess it could just be as simple water, but I kinda expect more...Layton "Lakes", Gourd can be used to carry water...Fernando...some guy named Fernando designed the worlds most expensive water bottle. "The water is sourced from France and Fiji (two points literally on opposite sides of the globe, which likely adds to the cost) and is sold in a bottle designed by Fernando Altamirano of Tequila Ley " and costs $60,000 😛

[glacial summit]

who tf paying 60k for water

[primal birch]

for the record I do not support this theory, just throwing it out there 😛

[midnight moon]

I love how meggles pins the help like we are all stupid and they didn’t do the most complicated word clue ever

[glacial summit]

ikr

[midnight moon]

Same with me and the whole duck thing

[glacial summit]

this clue is 5x harder than anything before it

other than great ones

if that ccounts as a clue

[primal birch]

but its so much fun! look how entertained it has kept us

[glacial summit]

im annoyed

i wanted a reveal this tuesday

[primal birch]

haha im frustrated and intrigued at the same time

[glacial summit]

its been dragged out to long

im honestly beginning to think even after they release whatever it is they release im gonna have now idea how the clues link up with it

[midnight moon]

@primal birch hey hahaha

explaining your theory

[primal birch]

what? lol I was just making stuff up that somewhat fit.

thats all anyone can do really

pick a path, and see where it leads!

[midnight moon]

yeah that’s what i meant

[glacial summit]

i like to think that the devs are just sitting on there couches laughing hysterically and eating popcorn as they watch us not make any progress

[midnight moon]

still sticking with aus right ? i mean TK was very sus today with that question

[stuck crown]

I’m pretty sure the new map is in Mexico.

[glacial summit]

what question?

[primal birch]

yeah i stick with my gut for sure...but that is not to say any other theory is less valid. I just like mine because its mine 😛

[glacial summit]

and is it 100% confirmed that there wont be sheep on the next map?

[midnight moon]

nofin.... just sus

[glacial summit]

now i want to know what i missed

[midnight moon]

To hard to explain now... it just basically confirms Australia

[glacial summit]

ah

thx

[midnight moon]

Non typical question..

like the Great one

🙂

[glacial summit]

is duck hunting popular in australia?

[midnight moon]

Nah i don’t think so but hey there are very exotic geese

magpie goose for example

If we get a swamp map like in classic

Is there a Spanish-speaking creator?

[restive sky]

hope we get mexican map with oryxs,jaguars,bears,pumas ,deers ,wild pigs,antilopes ,tahirs

[wind ridge]

Jaguar hunt is illegal in mexico

[restive sky]

last time i chek jaguar is not endegerd species

[vivid cosmos]

The game files?

[wind ridge]

1 to 9 years in jail and $50.000 for kill a jaguar

[pearl hatch]

who said they would find out

[restive sky]

well crap

[sonic drum]

Jaguars are vulnerable under iucn red list

Mainly due to deforestation, loss of prey, poaching etc

[uneven bloom]

but they're still protected under the ESA despite that, looks like

guess that means we'd be getting pumas again

[restive sky]

god damn

[sonic drum]

Pumas are the widest raging big it seems

[fluid tundra]

i just noticed something funny

[vivid cosmos]

Yes quite illegal

[restive sky]

i just want hunting game were you can hunt evry animal and not some peta water borad version

[pearl hatch]

that ruins the imersion

[sonic drum]

My current guess (hope) is Africa 2.0 something arid but with large antelope species, maybe some smaller predators hyenas etc

[fluid tundra]

when humans chop down trees and destroy animals homes they dont care but when someones house gets taken away cause they wont pay rent they go balistic like how do they think the poor animal feels

[vivid cosmos]

Tapir are also illegal

But everything is illegal to hunt in Lacandona jungle

If we go to tamaulipas tho...

[restive sky]

hope we get hipos crocks and seals to hunt

[pearl hatch]

we wont get seals

[wind ridge]

The policy of the study is not no place endangered species in CITES

[vivid cosmos]

Cause of canadians

[sonic drum]

Its all debatable etc pixels and ethics in a game etc as a wildlife conservationist myself I can see both sides of the argument

[pearl hatch]

what?

[vivid cosmos]

They kill hundreds of seals

[sonic drum]

Iceland also has issues with grey seals

[pearl hatch]

no we dont lol

[restive sky]

it is game it is not like i am going to buy gun and go hunt real animals

[vivid cosmos]

Isn't in Canada the murder baby seal festival?

[midnight moon]

Points for Mars: The Map could be everything so why not Mars ? New Great one Animal introduced: Elon Musk Deer with truracs and New Vehicle: Tesla to safe our Mars animals

[uneven bloom]

that's because it happens illegally, usually

[wind ridge]

Convention International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) ONU

[restive sky]

if eskimo and other people can hunt seals damn i want to hunt seals in game deers are boring as hell

[uneven bloom]

not to mention they'd probably just act like bigger rabbits because AI limitations

[sonic drum]

I understand 🙂

[vivid cosmos]

Seals are boring as hell how do you even know you are killing a big seal?

[full crystal]

seals aren't illegal to hunt most places

[uneven bloom]

just because you want something doesn't mean it's going to be in the game.

[restive sky]

i know but i am sick of deers

[full crystal]

you can kind of get around the illegal thing though. most countries will let you shoot anything you want on private fenced reserves

[sonic drum]

Trublubber maybe but I think we are getting off topic

[dire whale]

https://tenor.com/view/ya-think-professor-sheldon-oberon-shelly-jack-black-jumanji-the-next-level-gif-16163488

[fluid tundra]

i bet theres a poaching game out there somewhere where you can hunt only illegal animals

[restive sky]

hunting unilmited was perfect games

[full crystal]

So Parque Fernando, Layton Lakes, and gourds...?

[vivid cosmos]

GB Brads where you assigned to babysit the craziest chat on the server?

[restive sky]

my guess mexico ,africa or mongolia

[dire whale]

I just thought I'd come watch it whilst I play games

[vivid cosmos]

Sorry for being a bunch of crazy kids

But the hype is real now

[wind ridge]

All three can be found in America

[restive sky]

ty 🙂 but i dont recondies peta as animal safe groupe to me they are more scamers

[sonic drum]

As a scientist I agree 😂

[vivid cosmos]

Most environmental groups that actually do shit will not be happy either but they act with a lot more class than peta

[restive sky]

😉 they need to be shut down and ignored as hell

[dire whale]

https://tenor.com/view/emoji-smiley-whistling-off-topic-gif-8328609

[sonic drum]

AI've seen Mexico southern north America, Aus, Africa 2.0 theories I think they all can be tied in, it will be interesting to see what EW comes out with

[restive sky]

wath abaout nepal mongolia map maybe

[sonic drum]

Also I've seen someone mention Fernando by Abba mentioned as a hint etc

[sonic drum]

Mountainous map would be interesting maybe in the Himalayas

[restive sky]

snow leopards would be fun with tahir mountian goats

[keen belfry]

Snow leopards are endangered

[ancient sorrel]

Maybe, but I’d prefer the mountains in Mongolia

[restive sky]

then himalayas map i dont want

[analog trench]

tahr also wont happen because fur otherwise they would have been on te awaroa

[ancient sorrel]

Mongolia has Argali and other types of goats, with some awesome plain’s animals, it’s still technically part of the Himalayas, with a lot to offer

[restive sky]

are they endergard too

[ancient sorrel]

Everywhere except New Zealand

[analog trench]

in their native range they are considered near threatened

they've also been introduced to the usa, south africa and argentina but i dont think they are relevant since the engine cant handle the capes anyway

[restive sky]

and europe biosn is also endergard but we still hunt him too

[uneven bloom]

European bison were endangered. They aren't anymore.

[analog trench]

yep they are also near threatened

[restive sky]

just hope new map is worth the hype with a lot of animals and not like awaora predotr free zone

[midnight moon]

I think cotw has done untold wondered for Euro bison. As a “non exotic” true blood North American hunter, learning about the Euro bison has made me aware they’re endangered. i havent done anything for they’re survival, but just me knowing the exist is something. Awareness of it

I didn’t know they existed until cotw

I mean the first one I killed was glitched in a tree at night after I TP to someone’s tent on MP, I never even got a look at it

[analog trench]

honestly predators dont excite me that much since theres no differences between a small and a large one, but i do just want something with lots of new species

[uneven bloom]

yeah ngl it doesn't really make sense for foxes and coyotes to go all the way up to 9

it'd make more sense for those two to cap at 5

[midnight moon]

Or get rid of that system all together

Because let’s be honest it makes 0 ducking sense

Age class system>

Because how many new players they lose to a confusing system

Also I have no idea why they don’t us BC/SCI

[uneven bloom]

I have no idea what that even is

[midnight moon]

It’s how you score animals IRL

And as an irl hunter, it’s very confusing to see some random moment assigned to an animals score

[wind ridge]

The difficult scale (1-trivial to 9-legendary) is the one thet defines the sensibility of the animal,s senses

[midnight moon]

Brads... i guess you know the map right

💥

[dire whale]

not a clue, know as much as you guys do so its interesting seeing what everyone thinks

[wind ridge]

9 is the maximus senses it can have

[midnight moon]

So TK hasn’t told you 🙂

[dire whale]

nah he doesnt tell us anything before the public knows

[wind ridge]

We all know that it will be Sonora or Arizona xD

[midnight moon]

Don’t stick too much on it... We will see on Friday 👀

[fast solstice]

It's getting announced friday?

[midnight moon]

No

We will just get a Clue on Social media

[fast solstice]

Oh

[midnight moon]

but i have the feeling it’s going to be a big clue

haha

[analog trench]

i love how they went from the last map being very obvious from the clues to this one being so cryptic hahaha

[glacial summit]

im expecting a short video with audio clues or a picture of a new species friday followed by a full reveal stream tuesday

[midnight moon]

Agree with friday. I think a little teaser on yt would be very possible but full reveal on next tuesday ? nah i think the tuesday after it will be full reveal

Because than it would also fit with the past june releases

[glacial summit]

ok yea

that makes more sense

[vivid cosmos]

In the end its going to be another dog and you people aren't ready to have this conversation

[spiral dawn]

The gourd is being released for you to carry water for your dog, more ducks on layton, there’s a new dog! his name is fernando and he retrieves the ducks

[vivid cosmos]

Yes

[vocal echo]

⬆️ 🇹 🇭 🇮 🇸

[midnight moon]

haha no

[wind ridge]

https://es.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fernando_(perro)
Just a match xD

[stuck sluice]

golden retriever when :D

if they ever release them im naming mine fernando coz of that

[celest sandal]

i want labs

like labs and retrievers in the same update

make it the duck hunting update #2

i’d honestly prefer a new map tho

[midnight mist]

the fowl play update

[proven solstice]

Id love a bird update

[analog trench]

realistically wouldnt a bird update have to be free to accommodate existing birds?

[supple ledge]

what?

[analog trench]

i mean if theres a waterfowl hunting update they couldnt really make it a paid dlc

this should be a new map anyway based off patterns

[midnight moon]

A waterfowl rework would update Layton, PF, and Yukon, and also update a new map that would come with it, provided they do a new map

And if they add geese to that list hirsch as well

[analog trench]

im guessing people wanted changes to geese as well lol

[languid wedge]

They need to lower the value of them if they're going to make the spawn rate a lot higher

[wind ridge]

some ppl don´t have geese on their map

geese need a fix :S

[languid wedge]

well if they make the spawn higher they need to lower the value of them to normal duck amount

[oblique root]

Cash is practically meaningless in this game

useless problem

[midnight moon]

Yeah

[mossy atlas]

any new theories?

[stuck basin]

People are just going in circles at this point.. I guess we are now waiting for Friday where it's likely we will get either another clue or the actual unveil..

[wind ridge]

I am convinced that it will be Arizona or Sonora.
I can't think of another theory xD

[visual knot]

Did u guys figure it out lol?

[vivid cosmos]

Mexico or Australia

Both kinda solid theories

But we mostly agree a waterfowl rework/map would be cool too

[lusty mural]

I’m set on Africa just because of the variety of new animals, amazing potential. I think they would have success with any new map if they added a bunch of new species instead of reusing half from old maps though

However, looks to me like it will be Mexican

[visual knot]

Layton is the clue made me think about Layton in a different season. That was on a survey.

[lusty mural]

That’s interesting, I haven’t heard anyone with that view yet

[visual knot]

I want it to be Africa personally

Would be cool - especially if they mixed the species up!

[light path]

africa is a gold mine of potential for new species

[lusty mural]

These two alone would be amazing

[visual knot]

Aside from the clues, I think Africa would be the smartest new map

[lusty mural]

There’s so many animals from all different classes in Africa, lots of potential

Yeah just look up antelopes of Africa and you’ll see how great they could make the map. Not to mention how easy it would be for them to make a new species of jackal to go with it. Then the large predator options are seemingly limitless too

[visual knot]

I wanna hunt hyenas!

[lusty mural]

Yes! I think striped hyena could look amazing in game

Personally I believe they can do well with any map, anywhere on earth. All they need to do is add some interesting new species that are fun to hunt repeatedly, whether that’s by giving them lots of variety or just because they’re unique, and new species (that can be similar to what’s already in game if they want to take an easy route) to fill the gaps rather than reusing old species. If every map that dropped had 10 endemic species, then we would want to play every map constantly rather than predominantly sticking to a couple like most people do. I think new maps should have 2 pre existing species tops

Apologies in advance to anyone who spent 2 months of their lives reading that

[languid wedge]

lol

Only took me about 20 seconds

[light dew]

Yeah

Didn’t take long

Anything different would be fun because I have hunted vorhunga so hard lately that the animals on that map have gotten boring to hunt almost

[lusty mural]

I believe that happens with every map which is why repetition with new maps is such a killer

[light dew]

Yeah

The only map I don’t get tired of hunting is srp because there so many different ways to hunt that map

[languid wedge]

That map somehow keeps drawing me back and I don't understand how

[lusty mural]

It’s the only map I haven’t bought lol I should though because I need a diamond bighorn and black bear

[languid wedge]

I think they should add marmots or prairie dogs or something to that one

Some kind of level 1 animal that's not a turkey

[lusty mural]

I think it’s interesting though that everyone seems to love srp, seems like the favourite to most

Yeah last 2 maps both had turkeys so I can’t see the next one having them too

[languid wedge]

It's somehow easy but challenging map with a very diverse ecosystem and Terrain

[mossy atlas]

there's only really 2 things I want,render bug fixed and ducks fixed so they actually come to decoys again and not sit in middle of lakes where you have to snipe them. for someone that loved using decoys and hunting ducks before the dog patch it has completely ruined it. Clue wise I don't think Mexico makes any sense at all the Australian theory with Layton and Gourd makes sense, but honestly it could be a lot of places

[lusty mural]

Yeah the open landscape draws people in I think. You see a lot more animals and it becomes more fun

[languid wedge]

I truly seeing it be a map of the nobody really expected

[languid wedge]

yeah and it is a cool map

[lusty mural]

What’s the Australian theory? I’m aussie and previously wanted a map here the most just for the landscape and because I’m biased but I hunt here irl and I must say... it would be boring as hell In game

[languid wedge]

And it seems like people have the least amount of problems with bugs and glitches and stuff there seems like everybody I said

[lusty mural]

Agreed, they’ve pointed all the arrows at Mexico which I don’t think they would really want to do if that was the map we are getting

[light dew]

I would like the Mexican map because it is such a diverse type of map and it give animals that we have never seen before and give the community a better way to grind for the great one because grinding Layton can just be painful

[languid wedge]

It would pretty much just be a desert version of srp I thank if they do

[lusty mural]

Some African species

[languid wedge]

It would be sad if they made a new African map and did not put Impala and greater kudu

[lusty mural]

Yeah Mexico could bring some nice things to the table. I think it’s a decent option but I can’t see it being as good a Africa personally

[light dew]

I agree but it would have way different animals

[languid wedge]

Really technically it would have just about the same species

[light dew]

I agree I need to play other maps than Africa though I wanted a diamond springbok and grinder for 2 weeks straight and didn’t get one

[glacial summit]

i honestly dont think they are ready for africa 2.0

they HAVE to do that map right

[lusty mural]

I bought Africa the day it dropped and weirdly I still don’t have a diamond springbok or scrub hare

[light dew]

Yeah

[glacial summit]

and its a pretty big project due to the sheer amount of species not to mention the unique interactions between them

[lusty mural]

They do for sure. If they failed it, we likely wouldn’t get another. It would be extremely unfortunate

[glacial summit]

which is why im almost dont want africa yet

[ancient sorrel]

Scrub hare are hard, and I’d recommend hunting MP for springbok

[light dew]

I would rather not have another Africa map because t is so hard to grind sometimes

[languid wedge]

You would have mule deer pronghorn mountain lion probably peccary possibly black bear desert bighorn maybe whitetails and a couple of more maybe even wolves

[glacial summit]

2020 was a bad year for them(as well as a ton of other game developers) and i dont think they can make africa 2.0 until later this year

[lusty mural]

If they did it. They would need a landscape that’s different enough from the existing map, and to add enough new species that it does not feel like vurhonga. Which should be easy as there are so damn many options. I’d be happy if they made a new African map with more new species than normal and charged 4x as much for it. Just want a good map man

[languid wedge]

I think they did pretty damn good for the hell 2020 was

[glacial summit]

saame

[mossy atlas]

but why do an africa 2 when asia has 0 maps?, I mean look at the massive gap in the Map, and also look at mexico there's 2 maps right near it, if they were going an america 3 I'd think it would be Florida to be a swampy type map but don't think that fits with clues

[lusty mural]

Thank you. Yeah I’m trying to get all 4 hares and rabbits diamond.... it’s painful

[ancient sorrel]

The only maps where everyone likes to hunt are Vurhonga snd SRP, because of the never ending stream of animals, SRP because of the pop density, and Vurhonga because of the sheer amount of species that can go basically anywhere on the map, I’d like to see EW go one of those routes

[glacial summit]

cause africa is a fantastic place to hunt

it offer so many interesting big game species

[ancient sorrel]

I still only have 1 diamond scrub hare after intense grinding

[glacial summit]

and is a way more popular request over asia

[ancient sorrel]

As long as we get greater kudu, I’m happy

[lusty mural]

For those that just joined, here’s a few

[glacial summit]

yea that or sable

[light dew]

I agree they need more maps where the animals are sufficient but not where you can walk out of the outpost and kill like 20 animals but where you still have to hunt

[spiral dawn]

asia is more taboo than africa tbh

thats why

[ancient sorrel]

That’s just the tip of the iceberg lol

[glacial summit]

sable look so cool

[lusty mural]

Exactly. Africa has more potential than anywhere else on earth for this game

[languid wedge]

I had a chance at an diamond European rabbit level three where the trophy estimate of 2 I only had a bow without small game arrows so there was really no way for me to kill it I need to remember where that was and go back

[ancient sorrel]

Sable, greater kudu, and some impala would be great and I’d love to see Cape Buffs again

[glacial summit]

lol this chat gets so off topic

[lusty mural]

Or you need to remember where it was and bring me 😉

[light dew]

It took me along time to kill a diamond rabbit just because I never went hunting for them

[lusty mural]

Pretty much just talk about what we want in the game lol

[light dew]

Yeah

[wind ridge]

https://discord.gg/S3rWNtGq

[ancient sorrel]

I completed getting every diamond in the game a couple weeks ago, rabbits were definitely very hard

[glacial summit]

?

[light dew]

I don’t have a diamond European buffalo or diamond roe deer and that is it

[lusty mural]

Well based off what we have seen. What evidence is there of the next map being Australian?

[glacial summit]

pretty strong actually

[lusty mural]

Please enlighten me

[spiral dawn]

tinfoil hats on

[ancient sorrel]

I got lucky with both of those, got them as initial spawns, and another bison after shooting a couple in hopes for an albino male

[languid wedge]

no my bun bun

[light dew]

Cool

Lol

[ancient sorrel]

Just watch KillClynton’s newest video

[lusty mural]

Thanks

[glacial summit]

i dont know to much and some of the theories are pretty far out there but apparently the gourd could be australian and layton has something to do with name related to australia

not my own theory but alot of people like it

[wind ridge]

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)

The arid area in the photo could indicate that this is so
Water gourd = Layton = Fernando
All three can be found in America
https://www.backyardnature.net/q/b-gourd.htm

[lusty mural]

Well aboriginal Australians didn’t use them and Europeans got here recently so obviously they didn’t use them so I don’t see that connection

[ancient sorrel]

Of all the possible new map, I think I want Australia the least

[glacial summit]

same

[light dew]

We just got New Zealand so that would be boring

[lusty mural]

Same. Map would be awesome, species would suck. Miss me with that

[ancient sorrel]

^^

[glacial summit]

it could be a VERY different map though

[light dew]

It could

[ancient sorrel]

Not THAT different

[glacial summit]

according to my limited understanding australia would be focused a little more on a desert theme right?

[ancient sorrel]

The species would be pretty similar

[glossy turret]

Australia and New Zealand are completely different New Zealand is dense and has a lot of moisture australia is arid it’s hot here and dry

[ancient sorrel]

That’s only the outback

[glossy turret]

The species aren’t similar at all

[ancient sorrel]

Gtg

[lusty mural]

Well they have many options with Australia, they could make it

Highland alpine country
Rainforest
Desert/outback
Tropical

[light dew]

Honestly the animals that are on New Zealand aren’t even supposed to be there be New Zealand popped out of the middle of the ocean one day

[glacial summit]

isnt like 80% of australia desert though?

[lusty mural]

Yeah the centre is but there’s insane diversity elsewhere

[glacial summit]

idk just looks that way from satellite images lol

[glossy turret]

Around that the cities here only take up a portion of the land the middle of Australia is massive and dry

[glacial summit]

i really dont know to much

[light dew]

Goth

Gtg

[glacial summit]

cya

[light dew]

Don’t know how I got those two but I did

[lusty mural]

Here I’ll draw a map

[glossy turret]

You don’t need to draw one you can literally search it up the Northern Territory is where it’s barren all the way up to Darwin

I’ve driven all the way from the bottom of Australia to the top. Amazing scenery

[glacial summit]

so if it was an australia map could it be more desert or is there really not enough species to use?

[glossy turret]

It could be either desert or it could be tropical up near Queensland

[glacial summit]

ik deserts tend to be a little barren

and not many animals

[mossy atlas]

there's heaps of species depending how they wanted to play it

[glossy turret]

It won’t be australia I don’t see that until next year

[glacial summit]

well i gtg but thanks for the info!

[glossy turret]

They have already said they have issues with the kangaroo mechanics so it won’t be this year

[glacial summit]

oh really?

that takes that off the list

[glossy turret]

I remember tk if they were to do australia it would take a lot of work with the mechanics of animals like the kangaroo

[glacial summit]

im sure

[glossy turret]

I’d love it to come but it needs to be done right

[glossy turret]

Literally didn’t Mark the most desert part of Australia right in the middle all the way up to Darwin

[analog trench]

honestly the only part of Australia thats similar to nz landscape wise is Tasmania

[lusty mural]

Just to clarify. From those lines to the coast are the sections I marked

[analog trench]

we would get some cross-over with animals though

[lusty mural]

No I didn’t mark any desert

[mossy atlas]

I read somewhere the Calabash is also called newgunea bean, and looked up New gunea hunting, there was an interesting Bow hunting story that would fit the game about it, just not sure about how it fits with the Layton clue

https://www.bowhunter.com/editorial/feature_articles_bw_png_0810/183108 here's the article

[pure lantern]

yeah i have been curious about New Guinea for the past few days on and off

Actually New Guinea or Philippines is more what I have been curious of

I am open to any map they release and would buy it regardless of my hopes, but I would hope we could fill in the world map more before a revisit to Africa. But as far as the clues, I see it possibly being Africa again, Mexico or Yucatan Peninsula, and Asia or Australia. We'll all see soon I hope 🙂

[nocturne moon]

Tbh I like how dd33 is just staying on New Mexico

[granite pulsar]

would be cool but highly unlikely

[nocturne moon]

🤷‍♂️

Never know

[midnight moon]

Hello Meggles and TK. It’s a weird feeling that you know the map and we don’t.

[candid pecan]

Wait... there is a map coming out?

[midnight moon]

😑

[warm basin]

Lol

[candid pecan]

"TK Said "Wait"... maybe he means weight... OMG DEEP SEA DIVING HERE WE COME

[midnight moon]

Being a dev for cotw must be cool. imagine knowing the map 6 months before everyone else does.

[candid pecan]

Man I do not even know what I am having for lunch today and that is in about 2 hours

[vague locust]

I didn't even buy te awaroa since i felt i have seen it all before it was released on ps4

[midnight moon]

I’ve got a feeling that the upcoming map won’t be delayed

🙂

[lusty mural]

Everyone’s guessing Mexico because that’s what it looks like. Everything points at it. But if she said only 1/3 of us have guessed correctly, it can’t be Mexico

[midnight moon]

Well, i am still sticking with Australia

[lusty mural]

Please let it be Africa I’ll donate my kidneys if that’s what it takes

[candid pecan]

You guys did not even want to shoot the species yourselves?

[midnight moon]

Lmao

[lusty mural]

Was definitely great to hunt them myself and I enjoyed the map but I must admit it did feel a little flat having seen it all beforehand. Nothing compares to the days of walking onto brand new maps with no idea what to expect

[vague locust]

Species of te awaroa? There is nothing that interesting there, feral goats were kinda cool looking but there are already enough goats and sheep on cuattro colinas and srp

[midnight moon]

Garrets Theory is just too good. And other things also do match with Australia. I can’t see it being another Us/Mexico map with Many Animals we’ve already got.

Yeah, the Australia theory sounds very good.

[candid pecan]

Yeah I can understand that!

[lusty mural]

Well if it is based here in Australia, I wish them luck animating fleeing kangaroos lol. That would be a nightmare

[midnight moon]

But i hope its wrong

Sincerely

I mean to what should water relate ?

[candid pecan]

If you are into bowhunting, the Sika are awesome fun in that forest

[midnight moon]

There is literally a species on Parque Fernando which has water in his name

And a pic of it was a clue

Could be waterbucks too

Nah Aussie is more likely

We will see on Friday i think 👀

But i just dont want it

Hence i said i hope its wrong

Not that i think its wrong

Thats a difference

[vague locust]

I'm super into bowhunting but i like small game more, there would have been few cool birds to hunt in NZ (i think you know better about that than me :D) but there is just turkey in te awaroa :(

[candid pecan]

Whats happening on Frriday?

[lusty mural]

Sika and feral goats are definitely the highlight of te awaroa for me. Anything new and different to what I’ve shot a million times is good but when they have so much variation within the species they are so much better to hunt and not as repetitive. They did that very well on those species

[midnight moon]

Social media

I mean you already know 😂

[candid pecan]

Ah gotcha! Hmmm... there could have been some Paradise ducks, Pheasant, Quail... I think thats about it?

[lusty mural]

Oh that’s awesome dude I’ve been looking for one since release

[candid pecan]

I like the look of the pigs and get excited when I see them, but its not something I go out of my way to hunt

[midnight moon]

Its got the good horns to the ones that go up more instead of wide

@candid pecan have you ever tried bow hunting a diamond mountain goat?

That is fun

[vague locust]

Well any of them would have been awesome :D also there is something called Pukeko? I was researching it when we found out that the map is in NZ and that one caught my eye

[candid pecan]

Nah, I do not chase diamonds. If I see one, cool, but I just like derping around and shooting and having fun

[candid pecan]

Yeah... they are usually protected though. I think in some places you MIGHT be able to hunt a few...

[midnight moon]

Fair, but the lvl 5 goats are very skittish

Its a good challenge

Wallabies on NZ would’ve been cool

[lusty mural]

Sable 🤤

[vague locust]

Oh, didn't know that. But that's enough off-topic from me, back to clues (or to the lack of them)!

[midnight moon]

Water !

[vague locust]

I still haven't seen a solid theory that would tie layton lakes, the gourd and parque fernando together

[candid pecan]

Ah yeah my bad... someone give this TreeKiwi guy a warning for off topic please

[midnight moon]

You have been warned

[vague locust]

Maybe you could give us your theory on the clues? ;)

[spring minnow]

!_warn TK offtopic

Aiyaiyai

[midnight moon]

Yeah, that’s why we have to think out of the box. Layton and Fernando as a Person 👀

Like i see why Australia makes sense

But i dont see why people want it

I mean completely new terrain... Wouldn’t you like hunting in the outback or swamp jungle ?

I mean it might be kinda cool but the species matter more to me personally

The only thing id really like in Australia is magpie goose

[torpid sorrel]

The most likely for is an Asian map

[midnight moon]

I just think Africa has alot more diversity

Well, Everyone likes other Species. Id love to see kangaroos, magpie goose, banteng, camels....

Bateng are cool too

Magpie and bateng would be my favs

[midnight moon]

Africa would be great either but the Clues are just Australia or Mexico

[vague locust]

The magpie goose looks so goofy i don't know if i would even want it in my lodge :D but any bird species is a plus imo

[shadow fox]

I see so many people who have a diamond, I have 72 hours in the game and no diamond, is that weird?

[torpid sorrel]

a Mexican doesn't make sense and does not tie in with what we currently know

And Australia is too close to NZ (te awaroa)

[midnight moon]

Once you figure out how it rolls you will gets 100s, literally 100s

[midnight moon]

I am level 60 and i’ve only 1 Diamond Kudu 😑

[torpid sorrel]

Yes I am 120 hours in and I dont have a diamond

[shadow fox]

Oh okay 🙂

[midnight moon]

Have about 420hrs on PC and 140ish diamonds there

Tbf

I played on console before

[torpid sorrel]

Lets keep the chat about the clues 🙂

[midnight moon]

So i already knew the best ways

[lusty mural]

You got me beat

[midnight moon]

Yeah

Clues

Clues

[torpid sorrel]

Cluuueeees

[warm basin]

Yall see that new clue

[midnight moon]

Just one thing for @shadow fox for most species learn where they drink and at what time

Then farm

Now clues

[lusty mural]

I just found another clue on Layton

[torpid sorrel]

Really?

[midnight moon]

You are obviously joking

🤡

[warm basin]

It's at the bofa outpost

[lusty mural]

Yes I found a rock. Mexico has rocks too.... do you see what I see

[midnight moon]

OMG

Genius

[torpid sorrel]

I am a bit sceptical

[spring minnow]

Cracked it! Mehico it must be now. I'm sold

[torpid sorrel]

wowwow 999999iq move

[candid pecan]

Did you manage to bottle some Oxygen as well? I think Mexico has some of that as well

[lusty mural]

There’s no denying it anymore

[torpid sorrel]

Mexico just doesn't tie in with what we currently know imo

[lusty mural]

Well there goes every spec of doubt in my mind. Crystal clear

[midnight moon]

Oxygen=No Oxygen=space=Mars

[spring minnow]

But does the gourd have rocks too? 🤔

[midnight moon]

Oxygen = no oxygen?

[torpid sorrel]

The SpaceHunter: call of the... well... space

[midnight moon]

Ah yes

O = not O

puppy vs goose

[torpid sorrel]

Oxygen is O2

[midnight moon]

Yeah i just used any letter

Too lazy

[torpid sorrel]

I see

[midnight moon]

Couldve used T too

[torpid sorrel]

Uh huh

[midnight moon]

Yus

Swedish

Water=Manatees

Man

Manatees are cute

They diverged from sea cows quite awhile ago iirc

Anyway

Back to clues

Whatcha got

Friday

So

It is obvious

Friday

We must invent a time machine

There is no other way

So, clUes aUstralia

Confirmed

😩

Hope the map after that will be Africa

Only thing that could get me back to playing is Africa i think lol

If this map isn’t africa the winter map will be because of UH. They’ll destroy UH pretty Quick.

UH wont be that big

Ik

The developer himself said it

Probably more like HS

it’s overhyped

arcade style

Well cotw is arcade too

It's just that the mechanic gives more longevity

I mean in cotw you can literally run around and shoot 40+ animals an hour

To grind for a world record sized animal to take the place of one of the 40 you killed before

That is pretty arcady imo

[lusty mural]

I was thinking a lot tonight and finally figured it out! So in Layton lakes, there is an outposts called ‘mount kraken outpost’. This directly southeast of this outpost is an outpost called ‘balmont northern outpost’. Now if you travel southeast of Layton lakes a couple thousands kms, you’ll reach Africa. In Africa there is a lake called ‘lake tanganyika. This lake is home to the cichlid Julidochromis marlieri. This fish grows to 15cm long. There is 15. Yesterday there were 6 new cases of covid-19 in Melbourne Australia, bringing the total cases to 15. So Melbourne is in the state of Victoria, this has a direct relation to the brand ‘Victoria’s secret’ as the map is a secret and we do not know where it is

[shadow fox]

Is the second clue found?

[spring minnow]

Pinned messages

[shadow fox]

Okay

[midnight moon]

I mean a guy named Fernando was born in New south wales

[lusty mural]

No need for clues. I totally just cracked it

[midnight moon]

Meggles makes it very tough... We need a bigger clue 😛

[lusty mural]

They’ve given us enough to get us guessing and narrow it down but not enough to find out, no matter how hard we try

[pure lantern]

TK said oxygen earlier. Water has oxygen and hydrogen. Any connections to the gourd and Layton other than water being Hydro and Oxy? Do we really have to think at the molecular level??

Again, I don't mind africa again, but please fill in the rest of the world first before we get duplicate locations 🙂

[midnight moon]

Any Believers here ?

For a german map

[pure lantern]

Yeah. They should call it...Hirschfelden 🙂

[warm basin]

^

[pure lantern]

I want it pretty bad actually

[warm basin]

We could get euro bison

[pure lantern]

oh oh oh and Fallow deer too

[warm basin]

For sure

Maybe even wild boar

[small grotto]

guys, stop spamming.

[warm basin]

😐

[pure lantern]

I have never hunted Euro rabbits either. Can we have those too, devs??

Hey, lonely. Do you have a theory? I haven't heard your idea yet.

It might be the ticket we've all been waiting for

[midnight moon]

Id like to see roe deer

[pure lantern]

foxes too

[midnight moon]

And MAYBE Red deer

[pure lantern]

MAYBE

I want to box with a kangaroo 🙂

[maiden schooner]

i would also love wide open fields for a german map, that would be AWESOME

[midnight moon]

@shadow fox I sucked for the longest time. This is the only game I play. My neurologist said playing video games will help my nerve damage in hands. I'm too slow for call of duty lol. Once I started buying more tents and tripods then I started getting diamonds. You're not grinding till you're shooting 50+ animals a day and several different drink zones, if hunt drink zones mostly. Although I have gotten like maybe 10 diamonds off of luck, being at the right place at the right time. When I'm getting discouraged and that happens it boosts my excitement again.

@torpid sorrel Layton is super close to silver ridge peaks. Thats close to Yukon. Australia isn't "too close" to new New Zealand when you think about that.

[ember wing]

Maybe we just getting new animals on Layton, Parque and VS

[pure lantern]

I can say there is a lack of oxygen needed for the animals i kill...

[brittle rose]

I hope someday to see the beauty of India and hunt the majestic wildlife, such as tigers and elephants, there, and maybe have some 19th century British hunting garb. I do not support harming endangered species in real life, but in a game nothing is actually harmed.

[silver fog]

Huntings illegal in India so likely not ever happening

Hard to set up a map there for that reason

[brittle rose]

That is unfortunate.

[pure lantern]

They said on stream they will never do it basically

[midnight moon]

What's everyone's guess

[pure lantern]

Disrespectful to India's culture they said

[silver fog]

(That and elephants/tigers are somewhat overrated)

[warm basin]

Mexico now but hoping for Africa

[shadow fox]

Okay, thx for the answer! 😃

[silver fog]

50/50 arid north america or africa with a few guessing Australia

[brittle rose]

I would be happy with any map to be honest. They always do an amazing job.

[pure lantern]

same

[silver fog]

Depends on the animal selection for me

[warm basin]

^

I'm still gonna buy it

But I wont be happy about it

[silver fog]

Not too terribly interested in small game, especially birds

[brittle rose]

A completely new lineup of animals would be nice.

[ember wing]

I'd rather get more animals on the current maps, but they do do a good job of environments

[warm basin]

I wouldnt mind more small game if they change up how they work

[silver fog]

If its new and has horns/antlers however I'll go for it

[warm basin]

Yea

[silver fog]

I just want decent looking trophies for the lodge

[pure lantern]

need more stuff to hunt with lower class firearms

[silver fog]

Eh, there's plenty tbh

[pure lantern]

ok

[silver fog]

Would be more if the .223 didnt suck some serious ass

[ember wing]

I don't understand how we still don't have impala, blesbok, greater kudu and Egyptian geese in game...

[warm basin]

When u realize if the map is Mexico then they could sneak a GO muley into the patch notes without anyone seeing

[midnight moon]

Im looking forward to see y’all when you realize it’s australia lol 🤣

[silver fog]

Honestly speaking here my fear regarding Mexico would be the lost potential

[pure lantern]

i want aussie tbh, but not sure if that is it

[silver fog]

It's just downgraded Texas in terms of wildlife lol

Like... MAYBE we'd get more mules or whitetail, and MAYBE some reskinned bighorn

[pure lantern]

what about Yucatan Peninsula area?

[brittle rose]

I used to have a good friend who talked about how beautiful Costa Rica is. I'd like something from that area.

[midnight moon]

Dude no offense but

[silver fog]

It just gets worse the further south you go

[midnight moon]

everything

in mexico

or Arizona style map

would be copy and pasted

every animal

[warm basin]

Australia is the same way😂

[midnight moon]

Only new terrain

[pure lantern]

same with texas

[silver fog]

Either its endangered, already ingame or a peccary

[compact vault]

Red deer would disagree with you

[warm basin]

Both Mexican and Australia would have very little new species

[midnight moon]

Yeah man you are right we have kangaroos magpie goose and camels

Australia would have 3 new

[warm basin]

Once again roos and camels are useless

[midnight moon]

Mexico 0

[warm basin]

Mexico would have new species

[silver fog]

Aye, at least Texas would offer up some more oriental species, as much as people like to bitch and moan over "imports"

[brittle rose]

Everything gets worse further south... Only different types of penguin in Antarctica, and lots of ice, probably.

[midnight moon]

Once again everybody has his own Fav animals

[midnight moon]

You are so cringe... Nee species just smaller deer lol hahahahah good joke

[silver fog]

Mexico would offer up maybe... 1-2 new species, tops

[warm basin]

U gonna cry about it?

[silver fog]

Not counting birds, maybe

[midnight moon]

Nah

[warm basin]

Seems like it

Herbert

[midnight moon]

it just kinda cringe by saying mexico would have new animals

[inland isle]

what if it's mexico with desert penguins

[brittle rose]

Where else can you hunt chupacabra?

[silver fog]

Australia on the other hand would offer up several new large game animals but wether they are popular or not is a better question

[pure lantern]

i like how everyone cried because we had no turkey and now everyone cries they exist. on only 2 maps lol. We have red deer on like 4, pigs in one form or another on a bunch, goats/sheep on a bunch, and don't get me started on the stupid rabbits....
