What is meant with fox hunting, like? Literally fox hunting or?
Think they meant like using dogs to corner foxes and stuff
Ahh
that's revontuli
😂😂😂
then thats cool
it would make sense for it to be on a waterfowl map
but i don't know how feasible it is
Trying to mow down herds of hogs. Lot easier with a fully automatic to kill a lot rather than tapping the trigger some 200 times
From the article, think they already stepped away from that a bit
They where saying?
CEO must’ve gotten fired
Lol
Cause about everything they said was wrong
Or changed
AKA "there will not be any famous real-life animals in-game"
if you meant lions in general, they were only added because Vurhonga got reviewbombed viciously.
Said reviewbombing will not work twice, as Steam has since added anti-reviewbomb measures.
pim is still ceo i believe
at the end of the day you can do anything if you do it right or in a certain way
So I can fly!?!?!
if you want to
Won't happen anytime soon, as confirmed by Jaxy in a recent stream.
Oh really? That sucks
But let's be real, thus was talking about endangered animals, not Cecil in particular
But doesn't matter, I don't want elephants or stuff anyway
Cecil wasnt even the hunters fault it was the guides fault
Lions in game is ok by me. It is highly regulated but several places in SA where you can hunt lions legally. Limpopo Provence offers options, Kalahari region near Botswana border also but there are several privately owned game reserves that offer this. Cecil the Lion ,who was killed in Zimbabwe, should never have been allowed to happen. And to top it all Cecil was collared. the dentists took him down with a bow. Screwed up shot - according to gps data from callar it took Cecil 9 hours to eventually die.
Who is Cecil
Was a very famous lion.
Clearly a lion
Well i get that
Yeah but he would have never been anywhere near the protected area if those guides hadnt taken him there
Meanin cecil would never have been shot if the guides knew what they where doing
But i never had heard of this cecil
Google it
agreed. corruption in zimbabwe, hell my part of the world in genneral. USD 55k will buy you a lot here
Yeah
Im thinking of planning a trip to LEGALLY hunt a lion
Theres a lot of red tape
But average combination of licenses etc is abour 49k
then stay away from Zim. If you have the cash lot's of ethical lion hunting here in South Africa.
Rule C
nah politically unstable but never been a civil war
Just making sure it doesn't turn into politics
Nah
I thought i heard there was a civil war in zim so was just curious
Must have been some place else
nope snice Zimbabwe gained independence from England
it has always been ruled by the same regime. no civil war.
Ahhh
so happy they added grouse and whitetail to the new map
Anyone know if they hunt anything fun in Northern Finland?
Not rly maybe some raccoon dogs
They are more southern iirc
Willow & rock ptarmigan
Those birds in south America that can make an imitate anything is right up there
I want to be running around and hear that was a mating call
Perry platypus bird
Oh wow, that really sounds like a cartoon character
Both Willow and Rock Ptarmigan would be great though, but think that might be a couple grouse to much for the map
I hope I'm wrong though
I just about died when I heard one of those ptarmigans in Classic
I'm not suprised, even with you calling it ridiculous I was not expecting that noise
Anything new?
not really
Were the birds at the very start of the teaser geese? ‘Cuz they had the same flying animations as them and the duck flying animation flaps faster so I think geese were confirmed before the latest pic came out
They were geese. they also make geese sounds
So they were confirmed before the goose pic came out?
We were not sure whether they were canadian geese or new geese
Rock ptarmigan is not coming. They live very far north in Finland, and this map is not that north by the looks of it. Willow ptarmigan could make it tho, but I think hazel grouse is maybe more likely
yeah, but have you seen that a large part in the north of the map is snow?
And snow requires species from the snow to populate it
Well I’m pretty sure the new goose pic is a new species since you can subtly see some details on the second goose to the right like a stripe behind the eye, and there isn’t any black parts of it
Yeah, i still think if they add ptarmigan it's going to be willow ptarmigan
Yeah, we think bean goose or greylag
I'll send you a brightened picture
I can see both of them being the goose in the pic
I think you are probably correct
well, they were def not canada geese
Enjoy, the brightened pic
oh those are def a new goose
I can’t remember the exact words of steam description but I think ptarmigan were confirmed
im rooting for bean goose
Would you actually know of other species they could add to the snowy part?
Can’t wait to see what plumage types there are
Black grouse, not quite ptarmigan
Arctic fox but it's very unlikely imo
Damn I was close
also pinned messages has EVERYTHING we know
I’ll have another look now
It lacks the map of the reserve that got spotted
anyone have an idea about when it'll release?
nope
I really wonder if they will add them
I can't edit in pictures
Good point
Very late may to mid June
They still have to make sure everything is working
I hope they spend that extra time squashing out bugs
Well, the duck rework was already mentioned in November, so they had plenty time to test that it seems
3rd tuesday of june is likely
You really think that late?
Thats been the release date for plenty of other maps iirc so maybe
If it’s Tuesday for Americans and such, that sucks because in australia, if it’s Tuesday there, it’s Wednesday here, and Tuesday is my early day from HS
hmm, and did the hints also come that soon?
No, but jaxy said they wanted to try something different by releasing smaller stuff earlier
y'all think if they're releasing this many photos from the new map now, we might get the full trailer next Tuesday? 👀
ah okay, good to know
I think they will be playing on the map Teusday tbh
Then I won't be watching the stream ... this time I'm so excited for the new map that I'm not gonna watch anything except the trailer until the map is out so I experience everything by myself!
I never get to watch the streams
Thats actually an interesting idea, but I don't have that level of self control
I need to know the 12 unknown species
i can assume goose
yeah, but what species
Ah yes 12 goose
bean
😂😂😂
Maybe some ducks too
i think we will have like 4 mabye 5 class 4 and up then the rest class 3 and under and mostly water fowl
cuze thares more options in finland for small game over large game
Hopefully
it will prob be like yukon whare it snows sometimes
they meant snow geese lol
ah well still my statment stands lol
Looking at the zoom in of the map it looks like a chunk of the north part of the map is snow/gets snow
im just happy we get birds fixed im tierd of seeing thousends of mallerds at one lake
Hopefully bird dogs soon too
and seeing 25% of mallerd on my map being piebald is so immersine brakeing
Yea I noticed that too
i dont even hunt mallerd any more cuze of it
and you cant even hunt geese without the dlc rn
I enjoy hunting the geese
But mainly because it makes money fast
I don't get to play a lot so I usually need to make bank when I play
i was in someones lodge and thay hade like 10 20 diamand geese i was like tf you doing with this many lol
Hahahaha I probably have about 5 diamond geese
one room ONLY HAD DIAMAND GEESE
Hahahahah
Hey, maybe he REALLY likes diamond geese
🤣
I need to fix my lodges
I always said I was going to
But I never have
and then alll of his other animals taxied were golds or rares
It's just a mess
all i get is albino rabbit AND THIS MAN HAD A MALA PLAINS BISON
That'd be awesome
Beuh
I have a few diamonds and a few rares but nothing like super crazy cuz I get to play for a few hours here and there
i got a wonky mala red deer tho so im happy
My fav is probably my albino gator
I have 2 diamond
My first diamond was a feral goat
i think i have 8 but 4 are from missons
boutta ping a certain channel
?
hinting toward the topic not being the new map anymore
Imagine what some of the rares for the new map will look
@stiff leaf good lad/lass/assault helicopter
I'm curious as to what the rares for the capercaillie will look like
thay might have molting
Now that you bring that up.. there is a rare cross-breed between a capercaillie and a black grouse
id love to see artic fox for finland
I doubt that they would implement it in the game but..
and then thares mallerds who cross breed with everthing under the sun lol
And the result:
id hunt that thay could do it as a misson animal
bird
It's a black grouse with a tail that looks like it's from a capercaillie but it can't reproduce evolution hasn't gone that far yet
thay could say it was sick cuz its cross breed so you need to hunt it down
yea but evolution also said yea mallerds you can crossbread with almost anything
damn, using that logic ima crossbreed an elephant with a mallard
the mallerdphant
a good new species for RC
so they revealed the capercaillie
They also made the male genitalia to be shaped like a corkscrew to make it as difficult as possible but that's .. Let's just end it there
Yea I heard about that. Sorry stupid phone call
I'm definitely interested in what they do with some of the new species
who made it like that?????
Oh, mother nature
ducks
Meant as a reply to @odd gull
Evolution
it makes things happen
evolution hates that animal
Anyway.. I want to know how the grouse will interact with trees.
Other than dodge them while flying.
mabye like turkeys and phasent

I'd like them to sit on top of them or on the branches, like they do IRL
^
branches mabye not its like the reson thay wont do squrrls
Frankly I don't think the engine was designed for birds to actually sit on trees. They will most likely be on ground only, which is a shame.
thay might sit on rocks
Not the same thing
if we can stand on them mabye thay will
First thing I see when I come back to chat
🤠
Out of context, that might seem a bit.. weird
but we were talking about ducks, at that point
Normal Talk here!
we were talking about hybrids thay might do lol
yea it was weird when he said it too lol
Heh
any info on the release date
No
About the grouse.. I'd be somewhat disappointed if they didn't sit on branches or on top of trees. That's how we usually hunt them (with decoys) if there is no pointer dog available
decoys?
More animal interactions with the environment would be nice in general
agreed
ye would be nice if the pumas and grey foxes climbed trees
but I'm sure that's a pretty hard thing to do
tress dont have hit boxes all the way up so thay cant do that
That would require a rework for all maps
Not easy to do
(I think, again, not a dev but I have some understanding of the industry)
Birds landing on trees might be more likely since it would probably just be snap points they could fly up to but I doubt they'll add it in this update
I would imagine there’d be a fair amount of work for a change like that
Yeah. I think so
actual climbing would be harder to do because you'd have to make climbing animations for each variant of tree lmao
and the pathfinding already isn't great so they'd have to rework that too
But at this point, we don't know what will be their mechanic.
So it's just all up in the air.
I think it's safe to assume that the capers are just gonna act like the turkeys do now
Birds are one thing because they can fly away. Animals can not and it would lead to people camping trees that animals flee up on until they have a clear enough shot or the animal becomes calm and climbs back down
Well ye that's how people hunt cougars in real life for the most part
Which they may not want to do in the game
Grouse may have some dedicated feeding spots and such, for example when the leaves fall from birches they tend to feed on those.
im playing a funny game called "how long until somebody joins my lodge"
I don't think it's that they wouldn't want to I think it's more that it requires a lot of resources to put something that complex into the game
and somebody joined
Trees don't have hitboxes after a certain point up the trunk
oh rilly lol time to get on the game
Also very valid
Well if they made climbing animations for every type of tree it wouldn't matter if they had actual hitboxes or not since it's just an animation that plays
but again that's something that would take a lot of time to do
But again, we will see how they will act and whether we like it or not. As a Finn I might have "some" feedback
(And as a Finn, I'd like a preview build)
finnish bias
But alas, I'm just a moderator, so probably won't happen
*promotes to content creator*
I mean most of you guys, if not all, are very knowledgeable when it comes to the game
they don't need to make all trees climbable just like they just decided not to make 90% of trees treestand-ready
im a big idiot
I hope u arnt talking about the mods
I am
Hi again again btw
well every type of tree they wanted them to be able to climb which would also be per-animal, per-map so it'd take some time
define they
I know I also said "they" but I want to know where they said it had to be all trees
I can promise u that some of the mods barley know how to hold their breath
from what I read: they=devs. them=birds
I didn't say it had to be all trees either?
It's still a large work load getting a mechanic like that to work without issue
Birds don't discriminate, they sits where they sits
I mean something like planet zoo has been trying to get climbing right since release and it's still janky sometimes lmao
I understand. It gets janky sometimes
Ye I feel like birds tho would be a lot easier
there's a small breach between working for all tree types and all trees period. smaller than vs working for a subset of tree types.
but I get the gist
I mean zoo tycoon 2 was released in like 2004 or something and they had birds that were able to fly up in trees
That's a different thing altogether
It's almost 20 years old, I bet they did it with sprite animations
Ye but like the puma is on multiple maps so it would have to be done for each map
really?
Or if not sprites, pre-rendered animations
I only know fernando pumas
It was just an animation that played with snap points on the trees, but they could do that for cotw too
SRP
And also, the game engines are completely different
there are pumas in srp?
...Yes?
AFAIK, COTW has a proprietary engine so it's not that simple
Which is why I said it would be a difficult thing to do
but not impossible
yeah, just named mountain lions
Ah, I missed that, sorry
I mean if they don't add it that's fine but it'd be kinda neat
Like turkeys roosting in trees n stuff would be kinda cool if they did decide to work on something like that
and the capercaillie feeding in trees like you said
ok that would explain it. but if the game doesn't call it that it should be clarified
Yeah it would, but, unfortunately, it might need reworks of all the maps containing turkeys.
Ye that was my point
Roosting turkeys are a bit pointless sense it's illegal to shoot them while their roosting anyway🤷♂️
A lot of things you can do in cotw are illegal lmao
Something something depending on legislation (I have no idea how US legislations on turkeys work)
AND it is nothing to discuss here
Ye
Well it's not illegal but is highly looked down on like shooting grounded pheasants
Oh
Nvm
Speaking of, wonder if the ducks will work like that with the rework
Wouldn't be a bad thing
They had it in Classic too so I don't see why not, would make duck hunting a little more fun
I hope they do
They prob will
Would be a great way to combat people who let geese land to kill entire flocks for cash
All birds should have to be shot airborne except for turkeys and maybe capercaillie (I don't know how caps are hunted)
Ye caps shouldn't have a grounded penalty
Grouse are ground hunted too, or sometimes even tree hunted, at least that's the case for Blue Grouse. Don't know about black grouse
I think Ptarmigan too
Ptarmigans had a grounded penalty in Classic iirc so I could see it either way
any new weapons announced for the new map or no?
nothing
over under 12 gauge be wicked
If it’s not a shotgun they’re beyond stupid
We already have that in the base game but maybe an O/U in a different gauge
Since we've only had one since release
That's the starter gun 💀
wouldnt be opposed to say a Sako S20
then id most likely skip it since i hate the shotguns in the game
That's fine I just think we need more than rifles every update lmao
I find the buckshot pretty fun as an occasional challenge
a .500 smith and wesson would be nice 🙂
👀
Anyways Finland stuff
yeah
I do not condone the behavior that was present in the prior moments btw
I did not see and im probably glad I didn't
A 500 S&W lever gun would be fun.
or a .458 bush gun
smimth and wenson
Yes.
I only say a 500 because they exist IRL. I forget who makes them but they take the already powerful 500 magnum and make it more because the barrel is longer.
How do you hunt things that fly? The 22? Thats boring.
Model 89 big horn armory
Thats it.
can the average hunter handle unloading a whole magazine in less than 10 seconds
Yes and no. Its lever action so the rate of fire is low.
they do make a .458 lever action as well
oh nvm I was thinking about the revolver mb
It'd be like the 45-70
BOOM
Chk-Chk
BOOM
Chk-Chk
All good. I want a semi auto handgun sometime this year tbh.
I was thinking more 375 AUTO MAG
Or like
A 10mm 1911 or something.
Because a 10mm would make a good 2-6
imagine a 2-6 gun that actually kills stuff
To be fair. The 243 does kill things. But it should be a 2-5.
It really can't take class 6 animals.
10mm is really fun in classic
Dan Wesson Kodiak is 10MM
I was thinling about the focoso
Is it a revolver?
no
No, semi-auto
Again. Console pleb. Never played classic.
focoso is 2-3 imo
lol
Its a 2-4 at best.
Goose
you could drop elk with it in Classic with a good shot
243 does that pretty well. Just shoots flat at 250m is the issue
It needs to get fixed at some point
I meant handgun but mb
30-30 is apparently decent
Whats this chat for? :o
talkin about Revontuli coast AKA finland
yee

Any news?
nope nothin
Nice!! I havent touched the hunter in like 6 months
and a major one at that if it's what it seems
I know this makes no sense, but what if Finland came with a Kar98k? I know it's a German gun and makes no sense with the map, but I think classic has one and it would be cool in cotw
I mean personally I don’t see where it makes any less sense than added a 50th shotgun to the game
Yeah it’s a waterfowl map but cotws shotguns practically all work the same
They're shotguns, what else do you expect?💀
Uh a noticeable difference between a 20 and 10ga?
Lmao
Classic had it down pretty well
20ga was good up until 35 meters while 10ga was 70-85
different gauges should have different stats
i hope its a semi 12 or maybe if multiple geese a semi 10
I hope for a 17hmr or a gun like @midnight moon said
As it'll probably be a shotgun, I would definitely like a semi 12 gauge
Not all of them
the .300 only has two variants, as does the .470 and the bow from the high-tech DLC
though ig that bow was supposed to have a third at some point but it got scrapped for whatever reason
I think the 17hmr will be the new gun. It’s one of the most requested guns and extremely popular in classic. Finland is the perfect map to introduce it
any new info?
nope
They shouldnt add modern rifles imo
They should stick to actual bolt action rifles
45-70 is best gun in game imo
Except it’s not
It should be, but it’s not
I just wanna have what the devs were smoking when they switched the 300 with the 45-70, cause ain’t no way that’s right
What’s odds of moose GO?
100%
Wouldn't count on it this update
as in, this update is massive enough even without a GO
Like to see a GO with really long tines
I'd be really surprised if they took the time to make a new GO on top of everything else
Which could be a typo.
I accidentally capitalize things quite a bit without thinking about it
I'm thinking... what if the new map is also a second Blacktail map?! 👀
Are there any in Finland with Whitetail?
No
Blacktail is like mule deer there NA only
Water kinda fall leaves and northern part snow
Likely be best map since SRP
Chatting
It would've been cool to get a second blacktail map, we already got 4 Whitetail .. but I get it ... Great One and all ...
I still like cotw
Just bad racks
I honestly didn't expect this map to have WT nor did I care for it to but with how much of a mess the other maps are for then I'm not arguing
Like why would i wanna hunt something in a game i could shoot from my kitchen window any day
Like what happened to mule deer and Rocky Mountain elk? Second most popular animals to hunt in the world (it’s close with whitetail) and get almost no love in cotw or clsssic
It’s like EW just goes “ Americans like whitetail, right?”
I have to many RME diamonds 😭
UH don’t have WT big mistake
I grinded for one for 3 weeks got 2 trolls then as soon as i got my diamond i got like 8 more right after
Keep other games out of the chat
Except it’s not, also irrelevant
One being a 500+
That's not a bad thing
The odds of another blacktail map are ridiculously small tbh
Broooo
Nah your a bigger troll then Zeek
RME are prolly the best model in game
Besides grizzlys
Antlers
Whitetail should be remodeled and brought up to lvl 5 ... cause we got class 2 small Raccoons go to lvl 5 while a whole class 4 deer goes only to lvl 3
I agree with that
Their antlers are good wdym
They’re not
The only bad thing about RME is their drink time and zones
Appalachian map maybe?
Blacktail aren’t in Appalachia
Brown, green, and red are blacktail
#GiveBighornNewZonesOrDrinktimes
Oh wow ... maybe if we get a separate British Columbia map
Layton lakes…
Pacific Northwest...
BT weak antlers imo
Whoever decided to give bighorn and mtn lion the same times is the bane if my existence
Is in British Colombia…
Truth
Why bighorn on rancho are better
That's why I'm saying a separate, non Pacific Northwest, British Columbia map
They arent 😭
They'd have to overhaul the world map before that happens
Bc bobcats scare them in there
So basically a map between Yukon and Layton
I guess that's why we won't get a GO blacktail any time soon
Layton was the only WT map when the GO concept was even introduced, keep in mind
...I'd rather see a sika deer GO first though
Yea, but they knew there are Whitetail in other places for future maps
Fallow>
Ummm ... Moose?
Moose and fallow or RME need to be next
Elk I would imagine is next on the list after Moose
Elk GO concept art...
Christmas version...
unless???
There's already a lot of reserves in NA, why seek for another one when the rest of the world can bring in more interesting mechanics into cotw?
Like where?
Asia, Australia, Africa 2.0, maybe another in SA
Texas
So can texas tho
So many foriegn and native species you can hunt in texas
TEXAS IT IS
Cant hunt in most of Asia
Who gives a crap
Me
We need a UK map
Yeah. in a high fence
Nah in wild
Do you care when I drop a tac nuke in downtown UK? It’s a game
I’m talking about Asia
Mainly southenr asian
They are mostly exotics in Texas. Don’t really need to hunt in the high fence state
High fence
And most of them aren’t natives
Like all of those
Yeah
^
None of those are in high fences 😂😂😂
If you want money, go texas. If you want your realism-focused players to be sad, go texas
Yeah cuz if they did a texas map in cotw they definitely wouldn't make it like any other map, they'd make it a a high fence hunt
for no specific reason, but they totally would
source: trust me
99% of them are all classed as invasive
Gotta spend real money and in game money to get the reserve
Cotw kind of feels like high fence anyways
Costs money to actually kill any animals
Yeah and lots of them are in high fence
Just like real life
Fr if it was all open world like you could hunt all of NA by driving everywhere etc
most of the species in parque are high fence
Extreme realism
And cuatro
the cotw team can take creative liberties on an asia map but god forbid they take creative liberties on a texas map
🤪
Personally hoping for a more tropical oceania map like Piccabeen from classic after Finland
same
or maybe an all-in-one australia map with one half being more dense forest and the other half being more open
Like half outback kinda?
But like
Yeah with a scrubland transition between the two
Who actually likes brr in classic
Never played classic
arctic canada please
Canada wld be nice
A lot of people, and Australia has been requested since COTW's launch
I don’t know a single person who likes brr
Then meet more people hehe
bushrangers run?
ye
I want to get sucker punched by a ‘roo
Also, everyone asks for Australia but what are we gonna hunt there?
Just knock me the hell out
Kangaroos are like the most boring thing ever to hunt
kangooo
we are gonna fight this guy
they look funky
A second map for axis, kangaroos, a second map for water buffalo, banteng etc
nah
those would be the biggest attractions for me personally since I hate parque
Camels 😏
are brumbies hunted?
Everyone will ask for roos and will realize how boring they are to hunt
What would make them boring?
ye people hunt horses sometimes
I feel like adding feral cats to Australia would go over well
Have you ever hunted them in classic?
I mean if you wanted to simplify it to just "it's a deer that hops" you could say that for any animal currently in the game
like literally any animal except maybe alligators
Considering that Classic has a different dev team, that’s probably not the best reference to go by
I mean it’s like the only game with kangaroos
And for the fact they don’t really do anything lol
I mean most animals don’t do much
Tru sometimes
Other than some of the predators that charge at you at random times
like the ibex would be a little cooler if they were on a proper map for them but as of right now it's just like hunting any other animal
Phone I swear to god start spelling words right or I will throw you against the wall
Need zones badly need to be changed honestly
which is why I'm hoping they'll get a rework after the waterfowl since it seems like they've been focusing on more QoL stuff
Like the fur changes and remodels they've been doing
Making Mountain hunts hard is virtually impossible
and the waterfowl rework in itself
All mountain animals are east to hunt in games and most likely will be for a very long time. Not that mountain animals are actually in the mountains in cotw 😂
I don't think it really needs to be HARD in order to be fun per se but something more akin to sheep/goat hunting in classic would be nice
That’s what I’m saying. They sheep and goats aren’t even really in the mountains in cotw
yeah the mountains in cuatro are really flat and covered in brush, not really somewhere an ibex would be
BRR is my go-to fox map in Classic, so you know one person. 🙂
Lol
I always preferred val
Like none of the animals on brr really appealed to me much tbf since this was many years ago
GOOD STEAM GAMES ?
fist fighting dlc
Mule deer on Parque
Introduced species
anyone know if loadouts are coming to the game?
Not in this update
Apparently people are speculating that in the stream where they showed the teaser for revontuli coast, jaxy and kiwi both basically gave away a hint about a great one
And what im speculating myself is the brown bear is the new great one being released. The moose shouldn’t be first unless Finland has really good moose hunting. There are so many other animals that could have great ones before the moose. Bears being one of them.
Although a GO bear would be highly aggressive and would tank shots from previous attempts at being hunted
lynx

Dude i have so many ideas based off real life animals for GO animals
Like lion: the black man eating lion that terrorized villages for years until it was killed, and it would be a very aggressive lion, more so than normal lions
Finland has very good moose hunting
I really hope they make capercaillie aggressive. If anyone hasn't seen their behavior before here's a typical finnish encaunter with them https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2SLL9JUCWc
Wow that's a little nasty bird, that thing will kick some butt lol...
So isnt the brown bear on siberia too?
Cause i compared the size of the one from the teaser to the one on siberia, i feel like it was way bigger
it's on several reserves?
I meant specifically brown bear
Grizzlies are the same but adapted differently
They sound like me after bad Mexican food. Weird little birds.
So are they only really protective of their eggs? Or are they just assholes.
So i think (by comparing size from an estimated distance from the teaser)
it's during their mating season
The Eurasian brown bear is the great one
ok
The one in the trailer is bigger and the size of the shoulders were also different
Yea
Same
I noticed the graying of the shoulder fur too
Looked at the fur types but none matched
Hmmm didn't notice that?
Probably just the sun reflecting in the teaser
But it looks different and i cant put my finger on what is
I was just trying to take in all I could lol
Yea
I didnt the first time
I was looking for a hint at a great one
And it showed the bear
So i started looking more into the bear size and stuff
I will have to watch it again and see if I notice it
Yea it looks like its bulkier and it does look heavier
yes very
If its not the bear and its the moose, they had us basically hanging off a cliff trying to find the slightest hint at a great one
I want a hint at a great one personally
I want them to give me the most subtle hint
Just so i have something to start researching for fun
yeah a GO of a different breed be nice?
Yea
They could do an entire update on new great ones for the savanna and other Great-oneless maps
yeah
For instance: The black man eating lion that terrorized villages suposedly
That would be a pleasure to grind for
Lions are already hard to find, at least for me
But that lion would be so fun
Because it is aggressive towards humans
And they could also make like, a great one bison perhaps
It would be bigger and have bigger horns
yeah my son n I were hunting them and a lioness was running n he said she's coming n my dang dog run you to me n scared the heck out of me hahahaha
No, have the plains bison be albino bison with scars along its back
Nah nah
It should be an old, scarred bison, with bigger horns and it should weigh around 4000 pounds
1800 kg for anyone who uses metric
I'm US lol
Figured there would be a mix of EU and US (im US) but i thought putting it in would help EU people with understanding
Heres an idea
Great one Gator
Call it godzilla
ooooooo that be cool
Should be an orange gator
With this make it like really dark
all GO's should have a color difference?
Make it have a bite taken out of its tail, hooks in its mouth (no football references to color), coloration should be a dark olive
Yea unless its big like bison or gators
true
Like this color
The bison should have normal colors but should show signs of age through graying fur
yes that's nice
Yes
Orange is a natural color for gators it’s not about football
A bison that weighs over 4000 pounds
Hm…. Dont recall seeing orange gators when i lived in the florida swamplands
They are really rare
@brave ore you live in Fla n I live in MD, we're both east coasters lol
Nah im in my home state of virginia now
oh cool
Btw i saw the gator you were talking about, the coloration was from rust
Or something in the sediment
It is a color found in Carolina Gators, the idea is it is because of them hibernation in rusty pipes causing their scales to change color
It could have been covered in clay
No one knows
But you can see the normal coloration near the front shoulder area
And near the base of the tail
But the orange wouldnt make sense for a great one
Still would be a cool GO also makes sense in Acres since the idea of the map is a flood so the gator could have been inside a rusted pipe when the flood hit
A new addition to current scale colors would be fine, but it wouldnt make sense for a GO
Plus those gators live near water sources with culverts. The mississippi reserve doesnt have any visibly on the map when you look around
The ideo of a large, battleworn and visible failed hunting attempts would match up more for that swampy feel
My most wanted addition to the game would be reworking Roosevelt Elk and making their antler red
Yea with the velvet
This would be a nice diamond
Yea
Like I would love calling in a diamond elk and seeing those fire tips coming over the hill
Hey, they could make some animals have something like a great one, but not a great one. For example, a bigger than normal feral hog
Something like the stories of hogzilla
Maybe
Hmmm what would be a good name for what i mean
Apex animals
Something like that
Bigger than normal hogs or something
A smoked turkey could be a cool go
Bruh
Im actually being serious about the great one ideas
Then theres you talking about a smoked turkey great one
You hungry or something man?
Anyways ill continue this later
Cya
I would think that mountain hare would be added to the new map of Finland, which is a really common game species in Finland
And there is a reindeer in Finland and there are also Finnish forest reindeer that are a little different so I think there would even be one new deer species in it.
So eight animals have been confirmed right ? Moose, Brown bear, Whitetail, Racoon dog, Capercaillie, Black grouse, Mallard and Taiga bean goose.
I also think roe deer will be added
idea: great one antlers based on extinct animals
I’d love great ones ducks 🥴
when this map comes out i think we will get the TRG 42 or a shotgun
Btw if u guys go on the yt for expansive worlds there's a vid called lock&learn turkeys on settlers there's a picture of a black grouse or something similar
It's a capercaillie
Ah okay sorry
No need to be sorry! :)
They're a big inside joke between me and my friends so I'm really looking forward to hunting them
They have bigger hitboxes than pheasant I think
Idk how many there are here in Sweden
But bigger then pheasant right? So they should be easier to kill

I don't have them where I live cause I live in South Sweden, but there are a lot of them higher up in le country

Flush more easily also
they are exact like turkeys

U sure?

I've seen SOO much pheasant this year, crossing the roads. I've also seen a bunch of roadkill sadly.
yesterday a owl attacked my chicks
Oi
I was in romania to visit my uncle since he lives on a hunting area but they made it illegal to hunt a lot of wild birds now I'm sure

It's not really fun to hunt there a lot of things are pretty much illegal only like boars and stuff are to hunt
it s the biggest swamp in Europe
I'll check it out
it s good for fishing
Boars are no fun
Im not too big on fishing
there might also be badgers in revontuli coast
I was talking about romania
ah
They are like racoons
yeah
They're in London and stuff
there could be 2 bear species
kinda
If u hsve a big garden you can see them sometimes
they are like little bears
Not too many in the North tho

I'd stick with racoons but bigger

i know in russia exicst
Badgers
its pretty rare tho
Have u seen the revontuli coast thing on steam
If u zoom in u can see man layout on map ingame
Are polar bears found in Russia?
The migration has resulted in a booming increase in polar bear numbers in Russia's Wrangel Island. This is not the first time polar bears were seen migrating to colder places. In 2019, around 60 polar bears were spotted in one of Russia's remotest regions of Ryrkaypiy. (from google)
