My favorite
with one hand and then a pair of scissors behind out back
just give us 1 clue
There is a difference between a beaver damn and a beaver hut they live in huts they just build dam’s to stop or slow water flow
incase he doesn’t cooperate
Hi Jaxy, you don't have to say anything, but know that if it is Beavers and Beavers' dams, I'm over the Moon!
Just 1?
The most weird thing that came to my mind is re-design of Hirschfelden
Same
Say hot or cold Jaxy
I bet he really wants to, but yeah he is not gonna do it
Why not try
Question - in game, right now....is there current? Do rivers flow?
XD
i wanna shoot 20 beavers in the face with a slug
I dont think he can tho
I dont think so, right?
I know be nice tho
We’re lukewarm
We don't have flowing water mechanics in game
revenge
No water does not flow in game
I thought it may be seasons on hirsh
Yet
Yes
at first i did aswell dw
Ok, then how in that screenshot is there what appears to be whitewater in the middle of the water?
This Friday is another clue?
Oh I'm hoping for flowing rivers in the game more than for a new map xD
You know Jaxy is just reading chat and making a 😳 face saying "don't spill the beans, don't spill the beans. I can't spill the beans. Not yet. Not now" 😂
Jaxy watching this channel 24/7 lol
That's when there's a community thing
Could be with the duck rework or a new map feature
Think he is gone
really hope the next clue is something in game
I wish it's Canada
This looks like whitewater, but how is that possible without flowing water mechanics in game?
👀
jesus christ, it's sand
I think the engine that the game is on won't let the game to have flowing water or waterfalls, just like it's hard to make a good quility hair on animals (lions for example) and that's why we never got tahr on TA
Its probably something verry obvious. And he is just sitting there. Not understanding how we dont realize
If it’s a new map it could be a map feature with the update
new beaver multi mount it makes sense
in my opinion das a beaver dam
Maybe, Jaxy is from Canada and he said that he really is happy with the new content
lol😂
mm yes, but change the alligator for a bear and ur golden XD
not sure i got enough time to do that that took hrs.....😁
We need a multimount with raccoon fighting the beaver on top of the Alligator
New map = New multimounts 🤩
could be maybe a new trophy lodge
- new gun
Could be a tent in a beaver damn😂
thats not sand
Doesn't even look like sand
@quaint lintel New bow maybe 🤞
Shotgun probably if ducks are coming
hope so
This which a lot of people thinks thats a dam, is just a wooden path just like the ones in Layton Lake map and the white thing besides it, is just sand, you can see the full image with a decent resolution in this link

or beaver clothing looks very fetching 👀
tbh i like spring creek cause of the details, saseka is kinda plain so i hope for a possible small one for the f2p people
social
literally community manager
Could still be beaver even if this is not a beaver clue
are people taking it too literal though? previous use of screenshots were used as a combination with other clues to work it out
now
listen
what if
theres a creek there
and the path is going over the creek thing
Cap🧢
Muskrat???
Can anyone recap what we have please?
beaver 🙂
a sausage can from sweden
Both would be nice
I can't listen a text message
Nah it ain't a clue
you cant hear messages?
I get it
It does look like a path now that I look closer
I agree
Could be
Going into the woods
But not rlly confirmed
OH maby like a boat ramp?? Where they set out boats??
HOLD UP, I JUST REALIZED EXACTLY WHAT THAT IS
MY MOM
Idk man, those could be beavers
WAIT
Hear me out!!
wait
that image shows us its a TREE
A FALLEN one !
oh god...
Those beavers are hanging on for dear life if they are
Already said that......
You come down from the woods on the path to the boat here
And it transfers u here where path continues
Like the points on Mississippi
ye
Bruh
THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THAT IS
Can someone that's watching confirm?
No
how did ya actually unblur it?
Have we just been overthinking this lmao
photoshop?
possibly
Yea was just looking on my own zoom in now. definitely a path with another dock and boat - the white is sunlight on the water. the adjusted image distorted it a lot.
That is it 100%
Yeah
dammit I guess it is
would make sense if they put a few of those on Layton
Fack I got my hopes up
So now beavers aren't confirmed
It's a path that comes to the lake and continues on the other side, only you gotta use that boat to get to the other side
Fuk
Nothing is
Yeah jaxy has definitely been laughing at us ....
It's as simple as that
He WAS laughing 😂
Rip
no beaver hidey holes 😦
Someone send it before but yeah you can do it with photoshop
Still a chance of beavers though
beaver colonies 👀
what if the 2 pics are the same lake from oposite sides of the lake?
A thousand messages later.. Jesus 😂
muskrat?
Anything substantial, Scooby Gang?
We thought beavers
we have 3 potential options
So basically these are both paths that connect thru the boat transfer
When the new map is out, I bet that's what it's gonna be on this lake
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
It was this, then it was that. Now, it might not be that but it could still be this.
Pic, pls
Jinkies…
Pls we just want a. Beaver map xd
we going to australia nailed it
I just want a new map to hunt
Watch them be like it’s not beavers it’s two foot man eating rats, enjoy
I think you're on to somthing
Its just a normal platypus
is there different types ?
you're on fire tonight
or they are putting wacky wavy inflatable green men in game.
Perry the platypus
the hat completes him
ah, we're going to Disneyland
Perry, where have you been?
Lmao
Interstate area confirmed
whats the backstory
great one platypus wears a hat thats how you know
Boat transfer, it's one path.
I solved the clue BOOM!
I somehow read that as Finneas and Pherb
Guys I'm going to go cry in a corner because I can't kill beavers
That's the correct way
Then don’t shoot them?
Guinness Book of World Records
D o I t
maybe you dont shoot them. just use them to pull you on sleds
Such an American thing to say lol
you?
Thats actually genius
boats would be cool
As an American, I would shoot them. Don’t lump us all together please.
Yea, bruh, everyone was saying it's a beaver dam (I wouldn't mind it)
Lol
Yeah
I’m actively trying to leave the country. Tryna be that honorary european
What?! While everyone wants to visit here, you're leaving? xD
So there is going to be a community video right
you wouldn’t?
Likely. I think Friday is CU day?
I mean, Idk about where u at? But I'm confy here in LA xD
Can't wait to hear what Jaxxy says
The air qualityyyy
eh, I guess
I mean, visit different country, yea, but I wouldn't live there
See you Friday boys and girls
for me, a portuguese speaker, this sounds terrible xD
I haven't played the game for a while and I don't think a new map will be enough to lure me back in, actually not even if the waterfowl rework came and a new dog was added, the game formula just got stale for me
But the clue hunts are fun
I think this game lacks challenges
it lacks people willing to be challenged
Everything in this game is just so easy, it should be more challenging to go out in the woods and hunt something
Layton side missions.
I love seeing the community brain smash when there's a clue hunt
oh no, don’t say that… I’m going to do those soon, don’t crush my dreams 😭
Layton’s missions had some serious thought put into them, so was Hirsch’s
I'm still waiting Salvador from Rancho call me for more missions xD
Same
I am gonna have to reset my mission files
Im still on the mission to bow hunt couple of coyotes at night
if Layton’s are as hard as Hirschfelden’s then I’m not so worried
Had to leave for a bit. Anything new or important that I missed in 46 minutes?
Layton has some that are Hell.
spoiler, he'll never call you, there's no side missions and nothing more to do on Rancho
...which lead to many people just not bothering with missions at all, which further led to us not having side missions now.
No beaver confirmed
Well if people want more challenge those missions shouldn’t be an issue
yeah just look at the percentage of achievements people have done, it's pretty poor to be honest.
There still could be beavers (i hope so) but nothing on that pic related to them
I'm barely over 200 hours in this game and I get achievements that not even 10% of players have...
I hope so
I ran around checking all the docks I know the location of on Acres and found nada
Hope some chance of beavers
idk how many are on Layton/Hirsch, but I know there's some
I don't even think it's that I think it's that the formula is always the same for every aspect of the game, efficiency, hunt around water, 2 new maps every year. It was a lot of fun for me the first 500 hours
do you remember this picture at the turn of the year? That pun wasn't just like that, was it? I'm totally into it with sweden so far - there are also bears in sweden. 😄 and I can't get this greeting out of my head - now it would make sense to me! 🤔 maybe these was an early clue 🧐 How are you about that?
imagine seasonal change on maps. have it in for like 3 months then change
I'd love to see that
summer <-> winter changes in maps based on your global location?
hmm
sounds interesting. It seems most maps are in Autumn
I would love that especially if the animals you could hunt would Chan with the season
That appears to be medved
I'm aware of that - I'm more concerned with the text
It’s unbearable
I don't think the pun was meant to be significant
NNOOO
for me, the thing that makes wanna move to another hunting game (unfortunately there's nothing to compete with COTW at the moment) is cuz it's too easy to hunt in COTW, everybody drinking/sleeping/eating at the same time around the map, no aggressive animals
I hear classic's a lil more IRL accurate
autumn / late spring]
Minus the werewolves lol
I wish animals would just walk randomly, instead of strictly follow need zone travel lines
I mean say 20% of them
not all
What is this weird brown thing??
grass
A beaver
Idk. Beaver? XD
🏃♀️
The shade covering the grass
jack-in-the-box 😋
BEAVER?
I've seen and hunted enough beavers irl to say no that isn't one.
are there plans for raytracing? Or is this planned for COTW 2?
Don’t even know if there is a COTW 2 in the works
oh
Prob not
Probably not since they keep bringing regular updates to the current game.
Unsure if raytracing would come to the game due to engine limitations
hmm
I doubt they would consider switching to Unreal Engine 5
but u never know...
Man, they really didn't want to make this one easy on us did they?
They want us to suffer
don't talk about this engine again, my RAM started to cry
That would require re-doing the entire game from scratch.
I tried the Superman Matrix UE5 demo someone made .. omg my i7700 suffered, 100% at 8 cores. But my 2080RTX was only at 35%
Which, at that point, you might as well just make an entire new game
yep indeed
aka COTW2
I'm currently with a I3 7100 and a GTX1050Ti with 16Gb RAM xD
Which I doubt they’re gonna do, at least in the medium term
i3 😳
I'll be moving to a new setup in 2 or more months, I5 12400 (or a Ryzen) and a 3060Ti
My monitor just died this week, so I had to spend more money xD
👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀
big brain time
You’d best Tag him with that pic so that he can see the great clue hunt
perhaps implementing UE5 instead of adding raytracing to their own engine would be more feasible?
I mean UE5 is astonishing technically, I dont know if EW can implement something similar in the short term
hehe i did type that but not the beaver part. hopeful
hey jaxy 😋
👋
like "water"
im armed with a shaver
Please jaxy we need anything even a one word clue is better than nothing
Or like It destroys our tents
Does it have a pulse?
Desperate times call for desperate razors
||SHAVE THE BEARD||
😳
👀
So are we still debating clues or just memeing rn? Im good either way I just need clarification.
All of the above
Makes sense
And 20% serious debate
how much $$$ would Jaxy accept before shaving that beard
This chat opens twice a year, gotta make the most out it
Fair enough
And the content creators aren’t above a little trolling either 🤣
No one is 😂
You should’ve seen the sub that Ron posted yesterday
maybe if everyone here give Jaxy 2 dollars, he'll gib us another hint
Hell, I'd pay 10$ for a new clue to work with
soo what hints have we got?
2 screenshots
Do you have venmo jaxy?
new here .. so the hint is what the next map location is?
one with the lake right? and another one i aint seen
I'll give you my paycheck
If you mean only in this chat, that's not even gonna be 100 bucks
oh lord
@teal ruin yes
thanks, any idea where i can find the screenshots?
oh wait its the trophy lodge one aint it?
EWs twitter and no the trophy lodge isn't it. If you scroll up far enough in chat you'll see them when they were posted for discussion
we dont really know
oh ok
thanks mate
bless you
Are those pinned?
Nope, although if they're officially the clues, they should be
I wasnt here for half an hour, only to see 20-30 messages? cmon yall can do better
They are the official clues
Let's focus on this photo now
water
I don't think it's the same lake from the last photo from different angle
It reminds me a lot of northern layron
got it
Layton*
That's Layton
why does EW always seem to prefer Autumn, prefer Spring personally. more greenage 😋
Yea maybe that one isn't even a clue, only the second one is
tell that to winter and summer
how about northern yukon?
Autumn is when most of the world has it's hunting season
I prefer cold winter and hot summers of safari honestly
well mevdev is winter, all good
oh ok
But yea, make sense why it is autumn
ok fair enough
why not Spring instead of Autumn
besides the hunting popularity
So we've discussed the probability of Scandinavia, what about the Canadian arctic? I feel like it's an equal opportunity for new content and since EW practically worships north america it makes some sense at least.
sooo yukon but only the crimson plains?
next Tuesday we get teaser trailer maybe?
next map Australia 🤔 wouldnt mind hunting some kangaroos lol
Don't think so to early for a trailer
Not really, if they did a more mountainous map with the last 2 sheep species in north america it would be different.
I think Tuesday after next Tuesday
oh yeah
the only thing there is kangaroos and they got boring trust
Not the trailer, the teaser
Even so
boring trust?
I agree with that in the next 3-4 weeks I would exoect a teaser.
Exactly
In 2 weeks it's about time
boring, trust
alr
i just want another africa map tbh :(
Me too
oh the kangaroos were boring in classic?
We won't ever get another they don't care enough
g i live in australia
yeah would be nice to see another africa map
especially since we have crocodilian mechanics now
now thats something i would love
me too, but kangaroos would be nice to hunt in COTW
Especially since africa has over 60 huntable species
maybe if the models were super on point
Re an africa map : I assume Rhinoes and tigers and giraffes are protected?
I think I know
I see
i dont have any aussie pride being from a different country so to me there is barely any appeal
not a lot of tigers
Ew won't do it that's why I'm waiting for ultimate hunting they're going to have giraffes hippos rhinos elephants crocs baboons and more
hmm interesting
yeah but in realistic mode you will get fined for killing them
same here tbh, I'm from Netherlands
but would be nice to hunt some kangs
I'm from South Africa
in COTW
make the park rangers a huntable species too then lmao
😎
lol, should be in the game
This Chat died
..for about 10ms
oh yeah back to clues
We do
you guys seen this old photo of the clue picture they gave us, ultra enhanced
Antarctica 🥶
true
We need to analyze this more
is that a new map screenshot?
looks like a beaver colony on the left and a path of sorts/fallen tree on the right
Its been out for 5 days
or a big port thing
Can you edit the whole screenshot?
well it doesnt look like Aus, more like Europe
We are not sure yet
We already found the answer.
It's one single path that comes from woods goes thru the lake with boat transfer (like on acres) and continues on the other side
I didnt edit this tho
Thats not confirmed
But it is what makes sense
no, that's beavers
Its a fallen tree
lemme just bring this up again
UNDERWATER SUN
have a feeling its another US map
Can't really say it's the answer when nothings been confirmed lol
That only happens at the equator I think
So we can hunt sun now
Amazon map 🤤
I just contacted the guy who edited that but i wasnt the on to do it sorry
np
gib
thick Amazon jungle map 🤔
Just take an example from the game engine mechanics we've seen before on other maps, that is not a flowing water that is blocked by a beaver dam, it is just a path coming to the dock, boat transfer to the other side and the path continues
Jaguar and caimen
🤤
Can somebody bring me up to speed? 😅
Fallen tree
I wanna hunt greater kudu and waterbuck
unfortunately you can't hunt many things in Brazil, only buffalos and hogs, sometimes a deer
Go to Africa irl
oh
That's the only dense map I would not stop playing, especially if we have Jaguars there
And?
We have a brazil map
Beaver and boat
😎
Nothing confirmed tho
So are we going to hawaii?
we don't, Parque Fernando is on Argentina
Chill, I don't complain
does hawaii even have deer 🤔
I thought it was Brazil
I want beavers badly!! But that photo has nothing beaver related in it :(
Beavers could make sense, they could modify the gator swimming animation for them
was thinking of a Scottish map.. but what animals do they have 🤔
Sheep
Burd
Geese
Burd?
*Bird 😅
oh bird 😋
Hawaii?
guys whats going on ? new map ?
Rock Ptarmigan
I actually want that in game
Siberia
any deer in hawaii?
most likely sweden sir
We have
ok cool
what do you guys want enhanced?
raytraced enhanced
what about desert 😄
The screenshots may just edit to the maps we have now, it has been mentioned that the developers are interested in filling the maps with new animals
Aussie desert 😏
the original dock please
aussie ?
aussie = australia
Australia
But if it hints beavers, wouldn't Canada be the most obvious location?
Anywhere in NA has beavers
like this
Yea but beaver is Canada's national animal
not yet enhaced
Looks like a Layton dock
yes, It looks like there is something at the end of the dock
yeah was about to say.. layton
The devs looking at us, knowing we are no where close
we need Jaxy
well not many viable locations left on earth 😋
He won't speak
Thats another theory
mars 👀
Its a reserve on Uranus
Point of view
that's rude xD
hunting mars rovers 🤖
oddly enough and you may not believe me but Im certain that there was a dock exactly like that at the beginning of misissipi acres map, though i spent hours running to every bridge and never found the dock i saw at the start
Martians
actually I was thinking of mississipi when I saw that dock
I don't have Mississippi so yall feel free to look
could join a mp game
I wonder if we're ever gonna get The Hunter 3?
I played Mississippi , got bored in a few hours 😢
the same long model you mean? I can try help find it
the makeshift small bridges in mis acres look like the start of that dock in the clue image
Mp games are broken, i cant join them i get kicked instantly
Also I don't have gold
hmm interesting
It’s fantastic looking map, but yeah it’s boring a little
We don't have theHunter 2
yeah I think it needs way more deer
The Hunter: Classic
The Hunter: Call of The Wild
I honestly thought it had blacktail
the deer are only in the top side aswell as only being one kind
Well if you count classic then count theHunter: primal
yeah .. more deer would improve it drastically imo
What are those shrubs to the right
beavers
It's a photo from the new map that's for sure
That would be a shitty place to hunt.
or adding waterfowl will be amazing, Mississippi is the right place to hunt them
true
a okay, just broken planks
@unkempt condor didn't mean to respond lol
Jaxy?
Probably not, but maybe fishing rod?
That photo they posted is from the new map fs, but I think that's just a boat transfer point to the other dock in the photo
what other dock
Again no map has been confirmed lol
the first part of that dock is definitly a prefab. I found exactly the front of just now when walking around Hirschfelden
Listen, we know we're right if they pin a message
Ok makes sense
It is one path going thru the woods that comes to the lake (dock) and with boat transfer continues from the other dock
Not a path lol
Oregon is the Beaver State
why is that path significant?
There is a path going to the woods from the dock
I dont get it
oops
And the path continues down there only it's not shown
just dug through messages to get it back
the path is important because?
Because it's what on the clue photo
it will be a bit disappointing if they're just hinting boats and not new maps or such
hmm
a path doesnt actually tell us anything though
Boats will be amazing addition tbh
Nah, we're getting a new map in June, like always
I know, but don't mean the clue season for the map has started
It does! We don't have a main path in any map that goes thru the lake thru docks with boat transfer, meaning it IS a photo from new map
looks like layton to me 🤔
those clues could be for a lot of things
I'm still with you
This guy 😂
😋
the patch doesnt tell us that the images that have been enhance tell us that
or Yukon
^ yeah true
maybe I got something here, I'll confirm it in game in a few minutes
im eager to see whats coming
Enhance photos blur it and mess up the image
paths just tell us nothing
This photo frum Yukon, look at the grass and trees. It’s the same as the screenshot we have.
most COTW maps are in Autumn so a bit difficult to tell
Bruh
Whenever a new map comes out (or it's just addition to Layton or Hirshchfelden) remember that I said it's a boat transfer point and not a beaver dam,
but yeah it looks like Nth America
Yukon might be too mountainy tho for the place they have there
Is there clues on other socials?
i think this is all we have
I'm just happy that me and Jaxy reading the chat know it isn't a beaver dam but a boat transfer xD
how good would it be if the season in-game would reflect the season in your local area
winter=snow, summer=sunny green
In most countries you can only hunt in fall tho
We don't know that for sure
That's not true
yeah but its just a game afterall
Goose, bear and turkeys are all hunted in the spring
Yea but he's wrong lol majority of states have different seasons for different game example turkeys are hunted in spring and fall
its beavers
perhaps only populate those species depending on your local season? hmm
why you being so cocky about it
You guys know there are other countries besides the USA?
Because he thinks he knows the answer 😂
True we don’t even have a coyote season we can shoot them any time
Ask EW lol
worst people to ask lol
You mean I dont live in the United States of Australia 😳
Jaxy is here 😳
No Australia doesn't exist
at least not according to EW
I live in the southern matrix
so we have new clues to find?
None yet
The yellow trees look like Birchs
what other continent has those tall trees .. perhaps the EU? Definitely not in the south hemi
Yeah those are fall colored birch trees
looks like US or Canada to me
Is the photo the only thing they added or is their in game clues
I'm pretty sure that it's Sweden because of these reasons; 1. The fact that the clues are all images of a lake/two lakes with trees very close to that of Hirschfelden's trees but it can't be Hirschfelden because these lakes are confirmed not in the map. 2. They (being EW) have showed us lakes or large ponds in the current image clues and the update that's coming out soon is about water fowl, and Sweden also has some predominant water based animals (Ducks, European Beavers, etc.) 3. It is after all the home country of EW and they have yet to make a map of the place they call home.
I hope it's Sweden
Musk Ox????
Whatever it is it will be amazing! But i do really hope its european and not another US map 😁
It’s not even confirmed if it’s clue or not
(because hirsch is close to sweden irl countries
Oh lmao
there are wood ducks in Sweden?
i think so
as far as i know they only live in NA and don't migrate
yeah I think EW have exhausted potential US/Canada locations, time to go abroad 😎
nvm i think theyre aussie I could swear i saw wood duck and sweden correlated somewhere
oops
So is there going to be another clue coming out friday or is it another community update?
that is definitely not Aus, we have dry gum trees, nothing else really lol
They have I wanna say 50 different duck species according to Wikipedia
What if it’s not the new map yet and it’s actually boats/canoes/kayaks
There are eiders in Finland so I'm assuming there are some in Sweden too
google says otherwise lol
I think they will give us the first hint. In Tuesday stream
well probably 80% dry gum lol
whoops i thought you were denying wood ducks are aus my bad
Not to mention upland game birds
Black grouse and capercaillie would be very cool additions
My profile pic is actually a black grouse hen
Rock ptarmigan would be sick
Most of Australia looks like this lol
well they have to add a new "turkey" in every map so yeah
Actually not
Eh they got their forests in aussy
Ptarmigan would be sick but they live quite far north (especially rock ptarmigan)
well maybe 80%
Idk if they could do musk ox also if it is Sweden
are u sure?
It would be kinda funny they do all these polls to find out it’s not any of them
Curveball us
weird spelling for a sec i thought you meant pteridactle
Make a moose GO with said map
I'm afraid not
Sadge
Yes, you can see the diversity there
what about polar bears in sweden?
Im sure some could escape the zoos lol
you understand ever color is the same apart from that one percent actually green right?
Australia has redwood like forests
Aus definitely doesnt have those tall trees as seen in the teaser photo, they are mostly gum
Very diverse place
true
I live in aus and so does mr JayE and we can tell you that youre wrong
yeah my first thought is the US .. possible Canada
we are allowed to tell you your wrong
Yeah Canada does have a lot of birch especially in the northern part
And it’s has a lot of lakes
yeah it's very dry here in Aus .. mostly off-brown/green trees
very true
I don't thi k they'd add another US map yet
ooh, you were talking about the screenshot trees and Australia, I thought you were saying there are no forests there or something
It’s misunderstanding
Sorry
It would be Canada
there is like one place with snow and like 3 actual forests
If it’s NA
You're joking right? It's ew of course they would lol
true
I think that location could be another great place to hunt raccoons.
no please
all good. I dont think we have proper forest, mostly dry bush and trees
you have enough trash panda coats already?
we need more to work on
What do you mean?
twas a joke
If it was Finland they could add raccoon dogs. There aren't any in Sweden tho I believe
dont know what they are but they sound fun
I really hope its an EU country
same
ay, I need some of you to confirm something, there's some people saying they heard some howling in SRP
around Lone Island Lake
Ukraine 🤔 .. I dont know what wildlife they have
Actually saw an article that there are raccoon dogs in Sweden and it's a problem. They're wild dogs that look similar to raccoons.
too north might not have the trees in the picture
hmm ok
sorry to shoot you down
Dude! I dare you to repeat that!
wouldnt mind a Japanese map, pandas 🤔 probably protected.. no dice
wasnt me in the first place, my broken account had the atv dlc
Hmm, I googled it and it seemed that there aren't any in Sweden, then again I would not be surprised if Wikipedia is wrong. And yeah, they are a big problem in Finland too.
could be aspens
Pandas live in China
perfect for part of a storyline
saving a forest from devastation from trash cayotes
the ones on yukon are aspens
U sure?
Ah the article is an old one so maybe they got rid of them. But here's the link. https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-36228601#:~:text=The raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides) Sweden has a,and hundreds of thousands in Germany and Poland.
I stand corrected
So where do we think the new map is gonna be?
on Earth
Denmark / Sweden
Nah, TK said it was Mars.
Coolio
It may not be far tho
we need more EU maps 🙂
Either way the tree is the same as the ones from yukon
We need to search SRP, some people said they heard howling sounds at Lone Island Lake
So I'd say it's canada since alaska and Canada share the same foliage/trees
TK to trow us off
Hehe, of course. Last time it was the Moon
Where is lone island lake?
The lake with an island
Hope it's canada
there are a few island in the river on Hirsch
Anything new happen
Nop
Another Canada map would be ok I guess, but would prefer Aus or EU
Nah nothing clue wise but the yellow trees in the image is the same ones from yukon
Jaxy said focus on the screenshot
I know Jaxy said something about looking at the screenshot
They increase so rapidly so I don't believe they got rid of them, great to know thanks
well the screenshot is very Nth America.. hmm
He said?
possibly EU?
we bribed him
Is this another bridge?
He SAID?
It’s fallen trees as I see
No some say it’s a log in the water some say it’s a path like Layton
it was like a couple hours ago he poped in
what is with that path lol
its a dock with a boat.
.
i swear if its just boat i'm gonna be mad
any country can have a path, confused ....
A really clear version
oop
its just enhanced through a program over and over
I think at this point we have exhausted the screenshot. its definitely a clue and the main focus being boat traversing, with a possibility of it also being a screenshot of the new map, but we dont know that. it simply is a location not found in game currently.
Whats this
Golden frog????????
a pixelated bunch of pixels
Jaxy?
But I think it’s even longer. Maybe you can travel to the other side of the lake
i don't think enhancing the picture is the way to do it
I think it is
I wouldnt trust these images. whatever software is enhancing the photo is guessing at how the image should look. when the dock was enhanced people thought it was a beaver dam.
Can someone post the original pictures??
Jaxy is now under an NDA lol, he wont tell us 😋
i admittedly thought it was whitewater. The enhancement software just isnt trustworthy in this case.
is it possible for there to be a clue on a dock or in a boat somewhere in the game?
looks like yukon/layton
I’ll go to look for docks in Cuatro
its just in cotw new you know, the clues that is
Jaxy did throw us a bone earlier. One screenshot holds the clue. Not both.
Im betting on the bottom one
logically the most recent one
I think we really need to come together as a group and hunt down that top picture. Jaxy mentioned "THE" screenshot. its possible the top one is also a clue, but definitely not confirmed. only confirmed is the dock photo. IF the top is located we know the 2nd clue is still out there. We need that to start tying information together.
But the clues don't always make logical sense.
I went to see the 2 boats on Cuatro there is nothing suspicious
You probably know something
Could the clue be the white thing in the image in the background
I never saw those letters!
is that actually a beaver?
It's the TM for trademark
Birch trees are usually found in montane forests which are found in high altitude areas. Birch trees are trees that can grow on the highest altitudes among trees at typically more than 3500 meters above sea level. In India they can only be seen in Himalayan region.
hmm Himalayan?
Oh apparently I'm just dumb lmao
Some people think
nice
India?
It also has to have spruce
true
Hunting is illegal in india so it would have to be southern Nepal if that was the case
Dude the letters are literally saying "COTW TM" and the "geese" are particles I think
hmm ok
If it is a beaver it would make sense since they added raccoons with the last map
So only one of the pics is the clue?
What is this tent joke?
That's what you'd first think but you never know
Has anyone tried using like computer programs to see if there’s a secret message in the picture
Has anyone tried enhancing the entire image
Yes
Has it been posted
hmm, do u guys think the 2 pictures are the same lake from different angles?
imagine if this pic has more details (like boat and dock) just to make us think this is the clue
because only one pic is the clue right?
gotta be in the northern hemispehere ... surely
Like 3 hours ago
those trees,,,
Yes
Ok
What If the lake is the clue does the shape of the lake match any Canadian province or any country ?
didnt notice that thats pretty cool
we don't really know the shape of the entire lake, so no
wow nevermind thats pretty stupid
its the tm (trademark) for cotw
nearly all of that is wrong sorry
I'm really curious to know what the clue is, it's probably the hardest of all 🙃
probably
Y'all are so stupid
wym
man I wish those 'particles' would go away .. so many times they have triggered an animal in my peripheral vision
same
Lmao
gets me everytime
I need to replace that texture with a pure blank texture lol
I wish i could do that but the game might know whats going on
its a matter of editing the texture package file, replacing that one texture with nothingness
i dont wanna risk it
Let's not discuss tampering with the game files
Sure. You're welcome.
anyone know where this verison came from?
was this image used before the CU last friday with the lower half cut off?
no but its weird that the res is ultra wide since the game runs in 1920
It's fishing. EW is going to let us fish finally. That's what the boats mean and the grass/reeds in the water are an area where fish can hide.
Bet
those are on nearly ever map (water grass I mean)
What if they made one of the lakes in the shape of a country
Like the shape of the country of where the new map is going to be
this is the lake with the most shape in view
thats basically what we can see in terms of lake shape
It's definitely the boat. Don't you remember that question in the survey?
survey?
definitely the boat
They had a survey a while ago asking about feedback on ideas
they aren’t gonna hide a clue that’s that obscure
Having a boat to cross waterways was a question
maybe it’ll be a boat you can sit in and blast teal in
Am I the only one who doesn’t want fishing
no. that would ruin the game
Bro I would be so excited if I was able to fish
I've never played a fishing game I've enjoyed and I love fishing so yeah I'm with you I don't think they should add fishing
Fishing will probably either be its own dlc or a whole different game entirely I feel
Ultimately I just want them to add squirrels
whole diff game hopefully
If they do it ofc
a new game probably wouldnt be necessary though this whole company (EW) focusses on hunting more
Gotcha yea
I doubt they would add it sorry
good
Nono that's valid!
(Jaxy laughing at how wrong i am rn)
lol
i doubt fishing would be hard to make though
It would be hard to make it decent is the issue
I know they probably won't really add fishing, but it was just a speculation, like everything else in this thread so far. We're all throwing our guesses out and including things we'd like to see, but we just don't know for sure.
since you might be able to get away with the models only being visible while spotted
and the models would be small so there would be much difficulty
Fishing as a concept is exciting and I would jump in jow if I was able to fish, but I can def see the cons
Oh everyone this guy knows what the hint is, he says he knows 🤪
its not the worst idea especially as a few month thing
maybe its because all of your evidence there is unvalid or rushed, youve taken no time to consider that they have left ou any creatures on purpose or any other factors
is it Maine, they reworked the black bear. plus the title on you tube had US
Might be a wierd thing to ask, but are we sure they didn't add this dock in the pic to a existing lake as the hint?
i dont know anything like the rest of you and founding out isnt the fun here, its the speculation and ideas, its great just to be able to be a part of the experience
Could be joel
Bingo!
wym
Wym? Sorry I'm old
It means what you mean
what you mean
Ah, thanks
np
I was meaning that it's probably a lake already in the game with the dock added as a clue meaning we're getting the boat feature to cross lakes and other waterways without having to walk around them
makes sense
It makes sense as it was referenced specifically in the enhancement survey
oddly enough that you say this but im pretty sure i saw that dock and boat somewhere at the start of mis acres (like where you start off first time being there) along a bridge
I swear i saw it but i ran aroundd for hours in acres looking and couldnt find it
Probably a teaser
Only enhancements I'd like to see are squirrels and additional firearms
i hope its NOT that because i found it in a NA map the next map will be NA
Yeah, that
So many people are begging for africa or australia, I don't think there's gonna be another NA map anytime soon
It could be another EU map similar to Hirsh
initally i tought this image was from hirch
Because the foliage looks a real lot like Hirschfelden or perhaps Layton
so did i, I dont think its from acres though, 1000% sure its not in NA
actually he looks more like Layton
Yeah my money is on hirsh
the trees look more like hirsch though if you think about it
Tbh, if we find the spot without the Dock and boat, we know the dock and boat are the hint
theres is onw concrete tree that i didnt see in any reserve at all
let me sow u guys
thats why i think its sweden
pls do
hold on a second
i've sent this image too much so this will be my last time but this might be something new for some people
its really enhance over and over to try to see every clue
There’s a tree cut down and it looks like it’s a big dam so I think beavers
as long as i can remeber i didnt see any tree like that in any of the possible reserves where this photo could came from
I know there's debate on one or both screenshots, but they both could be from the same reserve, just different locations. The elevated trees in the center (red) could be the same location from different angles. The types of trees (blue) look similar to each other. And there is a short hill in the background (green) that could point to somewhere. I had also wondered if (not taking all the thoughts above into account), it both pictures aren't from the same lake from different angles. One showing the boat/dock and the other side, and the other angle hiding them.
an old theory I still think is the right one
I also think it's the same place, and the second one is a conceptual art
I'll send you a pic from a distance later tonight that'll show that sandbars look like the enhanced picture from a distance
Btw, the two pics do look like they could be from different times of the day. So also indicating different locations on the same reserve.
very true i think its the same reserve as well and the trees are similar in the back making the lakes possible opposite to eachother?
I think y'all are on to something, but i don't know how it's going to help us
