I see your point about the bear being "easier" to make, but I think they will indeed take the time to make a new moose model. It certainly will not take as long as making the new reserve, so if they started at the same time, this will not be a problem for them.
i really dont like the sheer number of birds it's gonna have
i guess this game needed a bird oriented map but that many birds is just mad
The folks that like bird hunting will be very happy though.
It could help you get more into bird hunting maybe? You never know. @quasi holly
I am not particularly excited about birds generally, but they are fun in Classic. If this is as good, or better, it will be great
I love hunting Turkey in Classic more than COTW, but I am looking forward to anything new on this map.
Same. Classic turkey hunting is marvellous
Yep.
Hopefully with this waterfowl rework diamonds and rares are a bit rarer for ducks to be more inline with other animals
And shotgun will be the primary weapon for them
I don't think the map will be that open. What TK showed us were the open areas up north. And i am worried that we only get that one swamp area, at least from looking at the map. I hope i am wrong tho.
So wait I've heard some things about beavers and badgers being in the map is that true
Also wolfs
This is gonne be my favorite map. Also there's no release date right
no release date yet, but I would say it likely will be next month
Durasel baterijo?
Moose or musk deer
Brown bear grinds would get boring very fast
They should wait until bears get truscore
Yay just got a diamond!
At least I know I wouldn’t shoot 1,000 of the same looking animal with different fur colors to get one model that looks different. Just not interesting enough imo
Duracell Battery I’d presume
im thinking RME
I believe that what TK showed us was mostly alpine areas. He passed by some really dense forest on his way there
i might buy this map..first one since SRP..i just didnt like the other maps...
mostly got negative reviews..i think finland will be goood
90% of the negative reviews are people asking for general bug fixes or complaining about the frequency of dlcs
Steam reviews dont NEARLY represent how good a map is
True that
Eg Vurhonga is one of the best maps, second only to SRP and its got mixed reviews
All the maps are great imo
2 year is also great and thats what pays their wages and puts a loaf of bread on the table.
Yeah because of the lions and a few bugs
i only like hunting NA animals
Ure playing the right game then its 50% NA
Mississippi is a amazing map to
U'll enjoy it i
Sure Zeek
Then the moose, whitetail and brown bear are right up your alley
😎 yup!.plus WT and Moose both have Great ones
Theres also room on the world map for a few more USA icons bit i cant see them doing one for each state ( thankfully )
Moose GO not confirmed yet but most liksly.
Is moose officially a confirmed GO because as of last night when I got off discord I hadn’t seen anything setting it in stone
pretty sure because Moose GO won in polls
RME are next
plus all the Moose maps getting reset for the moose GO
going to be huge rack! ..maybe all velvet! that be cool lol
Elk won the poll
Bur moose is still gonna be next
Anyway even if it was elk itd be roosevelt
Cause its basegame
Yea, agreed. Turkey Hunting and Waterfowling in Classic was just so dope.
Lets see if this update will change that, lmao.
i think there was 2 polls for moose and won both then they had a elk poll and elk won ..so 2-1 moose won.. just hope there's isnt grass in its antlers 🥺
I sure hope there isnt any weeds or grass or moss in its antlers, ;-;
Moose won the go poll against muleys but lost by a good number to elk in a other go poll and moose beat elk by 5% in the favorite to hunt poll they both was in
Guess it's moose then
I personally would love a mule deer one but I see that a little ways away but I fully bet it'll be the first DLC map exclusive great one
Delete this comment before the devs get any ideas
Please
Nooooo
we dont want a dlc exclusive
If what you said turns out to be true I am going to chew you out
I want mule deer ones dammit
And blame you for it
I'm fine with that
After elk blacktail roes and fallow get a go would you think they would stop?
Nono
Dlc map exclusive Jesus
See you better delete that comment before they get that idea
yep u better dew it
No I do this
do what?
Bigfoot
See better
.
Why does everyone think when I say DLC exclusive Im meaning a great one DLC instead of DLC map exclusive
I mean, with DLC Map exclusives, everyone can hunt them through Multiplayer Servers so it doesnt really necessarily require people to buy them, its just for if they want to farm the animals.
Or just buy the dlcs...
Same
LMAO.
Don't see why people would make a big deal about it don't maps cost 7.99 and gun dlc are 3.99
thats why i buy dlc's at discounts
With the oldest maps costing like a buck or so.
or less
Yea, exactly.
Or they come in a edition pack like 2019 2020 2021 etc
Its less about people making a big deal about it and more about EW stating a few times they are committed to making sure things like the GO are not paywalled.
I own everything too because I am a wh*re
Its just a business decision they are committed to.
Whenever I first got the game with all the DLCs was the winter of 2020 and I get everything for $45 and I honestly got more content than any $60 game that I can purchase and then I've purchased every DLC the moment it came out
Since
I know CoTW isn’t perfect but I really do enjoy playing
Ayo, Imagine, the next weapon pack that would come out, being...a shotgun pack with a new 10, 12 and 16GA
Yeeess
i just hope waterfowl are actually good in this DLC
Would be my favourite atleast.
I have a 2019 edition disc so I can play offline if I want and can play on the old scoring system with legacy racks
cause rn the looks on a few of them look a solid 3/10 for me
We gonna need a 28ga at some point
lucky....
Especially all of this up playing birds
Or a .410 / 22H combo would be dope. with like, .410 slugs aswell.
get a lodge full of legacy racks and then update it XD
Nah it was an update before lodges unfortunately
Still fun getting trophy shots of legacy stuff
If I wanted to
It's a pain finding the disc's for sale anywhere you normally gotta buy them off the internet
I probably only played it on PS4 for only a few hours then get it on PC a few yrs later and put in 1400 in a year lol
there's like 5 at my local game store
Xbox disc's are harder to find than ps4 ones
Whats your guys's favourite loadout right now?
My go-to loadout for any map is 7mm 243 .22lr 10 shot rifle +16ga if there is upload birds or 12ga if I'm waterfowl hunting
But I change it up a good bit
But that's my favorite basic go to loadout
rn i changed it up so its .300 .270 .22 kullman, 12GA
NGL, Its sad that 16GA cant take class 8 legally whilest 12GA can, because that doesnt really make alot of sense in my oppinion but oh well.
Mine is 12GA O/U or Pump, Recurve or Compound bow, and a .22 Pistol
Long bow is a very frequent companion on adventures for me as well
It’s literally normal for them 😂
thats the only bow i refuse to use
lol
Yea, but, its not really all that creative if they put it on the second GO in a row, lol.
It's grown to be my favorite bow
That’s a fair point - but I’m all up for realism as well
I also love traditional bows, they are great.
Once you get the hang of it 4-50m shots are pretty easy
Yea, exactly, I learned to use them in Classic, so using them in CoTW is easy AF.
I just would give anything for them to do a rework of the arrows the 700gr arrows need to go to class 7-9 the 540s need to either stay how they are or 3-6 and the 300s greatly need a fucking penetrating buff instead of bouncing off the skin of lynx or dropped down to class 1-2
Agreed.
Have you gotten any great trophies with the longbow?
Not yet.
Im trying to.
But its annoying.
Trying to like.
Shoot roe or axis.
With the 300 grs.
Because, well, they just dont work well on them.
Hehehe one sec
One of my greatest accomplishments in my opinion I've done in this game
Pretry
very, yes.
Yeas
Yeah we need more multi mounts for sure. I wouldn’t be mad if they just had an update that updated the lodge and added more features to it
I hope they don’t show any screenshots of the GO moose
Yep
Same
I want it to be a surprise
Hopefully it doesn’t just have leaves in the antlers 💀
I don’t want all of them to be that way
But it was an excellent choice for the red deer
I just wish that they would always score above diamond even if it’s at a minimum of one point
I know people expected more, but the red deer are already so gigantic
Eh. Was kind good
At least they didn’t just make it a bigger red deer
more racks tho pls
the GO red has a unique model tho which is neat
it makes sense because 16 cal is "smaller" caliber than 12 cal
Theoretically.
But it should be well capable of taking down something like an elk.
yes they dont respond to callers or decoys
16ga/66cal 12ga/72cal
They still both throw a ounce of lead at 1500ish FPS.
They do for me?
Yea.
I dunno. If the game wants a difference then put different shell lengths in the game.
A 3 1/2" magnum slug is gonna do more then a 2 3/4 reduced recoil slug.
TBH, Shotguns could become, the most complex weapons in game, If they wanted to, but its best to keep it simple I believe.
Complex weapons are most definitely shotguns.
Thats why I laugh at tactical dude bros who are like
"HYUCK shotguns are only good for breaching and birds DURRRRR
sad shotgun for EVERYTHING noises
I guess Revontuli is gonna be the new money maker
A shotgun is a complex multi role weapon that people never bother to learn. Whether that be for hunting or self defense in the USA.
Yea.
If buckshot and slugs behaved like they should,you would see way more people carrying buckshot too.
I was a little lost for when they showed the ducks for this map, the goldeneye duck looks much different in real life then how it was created and shown, the model looks more like a scaup than a goldeneye. Although i could be wrong. Perhaps they showed the tufted duck instead
Exactly.
Is there a thread of the animals in Finland?

Another thing, does anyone know/have an idea of when the map will be released?
Nope
not yet but soooooon 😁
Soon™️
Nah its a... I will not bother
End of the month more then likely.
haven’t seen you here in a hot minute
🔥 ⏳
Excited about new lynx map yet? 😄
I could hear your scream from here
Objective: get one of each rare, plus however many diamonds that takes me
How many of those you already have? 😄 10x each?
tho I’m kinda out of space in my lynx room
they will just have to invade other parts of the lodge
Just a room? I always assumed you had a full lodge 😄
Back room of a saseka lodge
Completely full
I had to move some into other parts of the lodge LMAO
I bet you can't wait to hunt lynx in the troll's crack
Kitty
Was a big boy blacc kat
Very dope.
Nice big kitty. Did you pet it? To death
Mallards, teals, and ducks do it?
With a .44 wildcat, yes
Also question of the day. Do you have a diamond or rare lynx?
It was definitely a tufted, there was a male in the background
Honestly I don't remember 😄 It's been a while since I played the game regularly. Yesterday played after a long time actually.
I have so little time to play that I rather spend the little freetime I get outside 😄
Yay I'm back from the dead! Can I just say I'm in love with this new reserve.. I've wanted a new euro map for ages.. and I'm all about small game and fowl.. and the map is true beauty and I'm heart struck.. by this reserve.. can't wait to get my PC monitor replace.. I've missed out on too much... 😍
Hayy welcome back happy to see you have came back alive
I just realized something ... remember the trees, nature overall, the forest thickness in Medved?! Now imagine if the whole snow and ice everywhere melted ... that's basically the new Revontuli map lol
Do bobcats count
imagine if the new GO is a LYNX ! 👀
could be with them at finland also
We haven’t even gotten this map yet 
GO’s without antlers is stupid
no u
while it would be cool, i spotted a bit of a pattern, all GOs have been available base game with no need to buy dlcs, and are usually antlered as thats the best way to show just how gtlreat they are, so my bets on moose
Not quite, no
the lynx can always invade the rest of the lodge
Heck, they’ve already started to
Deer
this is what i imagine the go moose would sorta look like
I think the go moose is just going to have a massive pair of nuts
And they are the trophy organ
not the skull
The Forbidden mistletoe
lmao
GO mallard
GO rabbit when
This is a G.O moose
Takes 50 shots to kill, is made of solid steel
Taller than most suburban houses
If killed by GO moose, kicks you out of the game
Reflects all light so it is invisible
Shiny deer
It will blind yo ass
guys
Guy?
new go is brwon bear lol
Expansive worlds tm is not responsible for any injury sustained through playing this game
Honestly, its either brown bear or moose but moose is on the beginner map so im more on the moose side
GO Tundra Bean Goose 
GO coyote…. Good luck
Well, we dont know that yet
Does anyone know the release date
Nope
Probably first week of june
First week of June
probably wont know about GO until release
12th
Okay
how do you know that
if you take into account how far between reveals and launches are for the newest/previous dlc
It would be not terribly far away
When do they show the reworked waterfowl?
Next week
June 7th or 14th will be on a Tuesday
I believe SRP in June 2020 was released around the 20th
so I'll say the 21st June
Could be
Why?
3rd week in june like SRP 2020
Ok but why are you comparing it to srp?
not SRP per say just a prediction ....
Ok well i always like to have a little hope for predicting XD
Is like to say at the least the 2nd week of june
1st week i hope but who knows
Just going off of the time frame between the reveals and releases of reserves
But this map is a lot bigger than the other ones
at some point they will let the content creators have the game ... probably a week before release ... By then you can say that pretty much everything is finished
Ye
game=map
will map resets come at the same time as finland release ? Or will they be before?
The pop resets will be done with the Finland update. Same as the pop resets with the MRP update
Be GO Shot first day
MRP?
Modern Rifle Pack
@midnight moon
niiinniii
Same time
I'm rly starting to think that Revontuli can just be Medved melted xD
Weird how so little people know the capercaillie
they're basically an alternative to turkey we hunt here and they're everywhere
I'm still considering this map as 5th in row with "turkeys"
this is a fact
capercaillies are much cooler than turkeys
one mans turkey is another mans capers ...
In my opinion they are too different to compare. Both are beautiful birds though, and if had to pick one, it would be turkey because I hunt them IRL and there are a couple flocks that have made a home on my property. Waking up to the sound of a Tom gobbling is a feeling I can’t describe. As for Capercaillies I didn’t even know they existed until they announced the Finland map.
yeah for real
i was talking in-game tho
they're gonna gonna work like turkeys so i was comparing them
In game I will probably like them equally.
Not sure if Caper's flock together like turkeys
would expect their AI and animations to be different
there was a flock of them on stream
yeah, but those were only females, the male was alone
Happens pretty commonly with turkeys in-game
Lets be real
Itll be turkey ai
Thats it
LO
Both taste good
You can’t claim something based purely on opinion is a fact
Do they not teach this in english class anymore?
it is fact
Read mothertrucker read!
right? 😂
They'll probs show it after the next stream when they show off the bird rework
possibly
I mean this as respectfully as I cam say it
No need to talk to people like that.
Yes yes just making sure we were on the same page
peace on earth good will toward men etc
The capercaillie however would choose war
they should make them aggressive lul
Emus
They already did
and succeeded
Me; Forgot to reload my shotgun.
The capercaillie I just spooked;
there's more footage of capercaillie attacks than bear attacks
Because they are angry little monsters
I was waiting for a shotgun to the face but alas it never happened
Because you survive capercaillie attacks
Based
Bear tastes good
Whenever the DLC comes out, I have a feeling it's going to coincide with JWE2's Dominion update.
because that has been an uncanny trend between EW and Frontier releasing new content for their games
Giganotosaurus and Quetzalcoatlus in COTW confirmed
niceee
in missisipi?
I've noticed that too lol
I'm pretty sure at one point a COTW update, Planet Zoo update, and Minecraft update all released on the same day
goose
No
pheasant then
should I make a duck set up 👀
As soon as this update launches I'll try to get a blonde mallard
Will it come out at the same time on all platforms
Thoughts on the new GO?
Probably moose, maybe something else
I would…. Kill for a… the hunter primal 2 but its basically Cotw with dinosaurs
Who knows 🤷♀️
Either moose or brown bear….. but most likely moose
I think they will break the cycle of deer and go with Brown bear, or one of the new species..
I hope not lol…. GO duck lol
Would that be like the description of the Velociraptor by the scared kid in Jurassic park? A 6 foot turkey?
Doubt theyd upscale a GO bird lol
are the two GO’s we have now even bigger in size other than antlers?
Yes.
Whitetail.
Whitetail doesnt even have a different model
Red Stag.
Na na na na
Like model wise
I know logically yes theyd be bigger
Model wise, there is a little size difference.
whitetail needs a remodel
True
White tail looks like playdoh
if its not a diamond or GO it looks ugly
Idk they just looks too bulky and round for what they are
I think they should really throw a wrench and make a water buffalo GO.
That would be absurd lol
I cant imagine the horn size
but they did say “where it would be” just to throw us off
Yeah but a lot of the older models dont hold up to the ones theyre making now
Google Sker buffalo lol
whitetail is OLD, its not the worst one but a remodel would be awesome because its so popular
Ok
fr
I've had an idea like that for cape buffalo
Id imagine the GO’s are made with some aspect of realism
it looks more like a cape buffalo then a water buffalo
idk of they would do that but its cool
the horns atleast
GO's are meant to be unique not just monster trophies so it could really be anything. Banded ducks, Lynx with a tracking collar, who knows. The Skies the limit. 🙂
Ok, the sky is not quite that high. LOL
wouldn't a lynx with a tracking collar be illegal to kill or something
*fez
That should be illegal, unless it's a studied animal. Someone 5 minutes from where I live got arrested for feeding and trapping a black bear cub.
The idea is that the GOs can have a variety of features that makes them different
Also, just a few miles down the road someone got mad at a burger King and threw a live gator through the drive through.
Apparently. Where I live is wild. Drove through a neighborhood and BOOM, peacocks just chilling.
Average day in america
People have pet peacocks that roam because theyre supposed to not go far and sit in trees
Can you imagine the investiGATOR that had to process that? 
Yep. Florida.
🚪👈
peacock hunting wen
They KNEW who it was...
Speaking of... I wonder what a GO Alligator would be? Other than just big. Part of tail missing or something could be cool.
Lake placid. New story mission, gotta stop Betty White from feeding it bulls.
I could argue GO white tail is just a monster trophy
it really is a regular white tail pattern with enormous antlers
Mostly because it was the first one so
I'll be honest, I'm not a fan of the GO WT.
They taste good though.
well in real life xD
The bleach white antlers just seem odd to me.
The model to me really only suits the diamonds and the great one
like the model would be fine if it only applied to big males
White tail arent that bulky lol
I've seen a few 14+ pointers and NEVER seen a rack like the GOs.
idk its just
Im only complaining because these new models theyre making are sooooo good
Did the wt model look updated Tueday?
I dont think its ever been touched up lol
I don't know but the duck feathers were amazing! HAHA
I know at least one of the GO racks is based on an IRL deer
Yeah it is
the one above, I call Porcupine
My son would say he's "horny". Lol
White tail model isnt that bad… its just off slightly
Its not the worst by a long shot
we dont talk about… jackal tho
PUMA need a remodel
and sika deer
puma is one of the worst
Sika looks like a baboon with antlers.
haha
I think the sikas are some of the better looking deer species
could look better but not horrible
It's pretty bad imo but it was one of the first animals in the game so it kinda gets a pass
also moose nose looks completely innaccurate
it's not droopy
it's round for some reason
fidelityfx 1.0 has been very underwhelming in my experience, you guys think FSR 2.0 is coming?
also roosevelt elk need to be bigger than rocky mountain elk
hope so
so many animals need remodels
FSR looks too grainy for me
hopefully once grizzly is remodeled they're gonna move on to deer species
too many blotches and artifacts and paintery look everywhere
Mostly just the older ones which is why I'm so glad they redid the black/brown bears
most foliage turns into a mess
whats that
bison need a remodel 100%
amd fidelityfx super resolution something
they look underwhelming
it's DLSS but on AMD cards basically
I'm not sure it's as good either
this is what a bison bull should look like, thick beard and an afro mohawk
Ye most of the animals up to Yukon need remodels eventually
after yukon the quality of the animals went up by a lot
See what you did? Now my .300 is screaming
.300 my beloved
The worst model are bighorn sheep, mule deer, sika, wolves, puma
The eyes of the mammals should glow in the night with the lantern
Like cats in rdr2
Whitetail aren’t great either
lion manes
oh god the jackals
almost every animal on vurhonga
jack-stripped sidals

What did you do caaaaaaaarl?
and Roe deer ☝🏻 We have a lot of them in Hungary and in game they look bad I think :/
I’m pretty sure they’re talking about the models, not the antlers
imo they don’t look absolutely terrible, but there’s definitely a lot of room for improvement
WT need new model first
The models also aren’t that bad imo. They won’t be 1:1 like IRL
Roosevelt >
If anything though warthog need a scale increase. They’re pretty small for being heavier than a whitetail
actually, the models themselves are alright, I just really want males to be able to have the Orange fur type
that’s how I feel about the Whitetail
Yeah the orange fur type would help them a bit
definitely
Their head is the odd thing I guess
the females specifically is where they could improve the models imo
I can’t pinpoint what exactly, but there’s just.. something a little bit off
Yupp
i didnt see this list until now. im going to farm the shit out of waterfowl
True
Yeah we probably will
Wanna have a new dog. A retriever would be fine. Otherwise we have to run for all the killed birds 🙂
It will be the next DLC after the map for sure
new map so cool im gonna buy it 0.026 milliseconds after its out on steam
it makes so much sense now to add a retriever
with all the wild fowl
yo guys whats the lowest lvl a diamond Cape buffalo could be?
Yes
ok thanks that clears things up
Lion
Jackal
Lesser kudu
Wildebeest
White tail
Puma/mountain lion
Are the ones id say need a remodel the most
they should just get rid of the lesser kudu and put a Normal/Greater kudu tbh
White tail priority tho… i mean its white tail
wildebeest is fine
Its ok
Needs some touchups IE fur
||But honestly id rather have a remodel…. Then have a second reserve in the future with greater kudu||
and then add the Big 5 and more african animals
Nobody would care about hunting elephants except a minority of people
Most rhinos probably tho
A small minority of people would care
Genociding elephants in somewhat realistic hunting simulator lol
I think they already tried to add elephants and it just became too iffy to do it
The devs care about hunting elephants
So we will never see them in game
Yeah which is unfortunate
I think if im totally honest the biggest thing you can legally hunt often is hippo
Isnt there games where your goal is literally to mass murder humans and thats your ONLY goal
I dont see how this is any different
Manhunt 
lmao
nah it isnt if u ask me its just a game and they should add elephants and rhinos
It can give the game a bad reputation. They already toed the line by adding lions and European bison
Elephants, Rhino, Leopard, Cheetah, Hippo, Baboon, Crocodile, Kudu, Zebra and Giraffe should all be in a new African Map
You cant shoot cheetah either lol
I wouldn’t mind if they added endangered species, but I respect their decision when they choose to put their foot down when it comes to the animals they add to the game
ok ye maybe not cheetah but the rest are fine
Add a mission to savannah to kill the last northern white rhinos ez
ye it makes sense but like i said its just a game, i mean if games had that much influence then 12 yr olds who play gta would be in prison
I mean we can’t say that people who played GTA are not in jail lmao
i mean true but u get what i mean
Yeah
100% of people who have died and are over the age of one (1) week have consumed h2o
If I can’t hunt them nobody can
grabs 470
ngl tho id love hippos
Bold of you to assume I drink water at all
I live off of Pepsi and disappointment
Not enough
Same actually
Close wnough
Although dr pepper has been my go to for awhile now
same
Bro you should have seen this chat the other day
I HATW FINLAND
Wat
We dont support finland’s lifestyle!!
Yeah, that’s not gonna work lmao
ban hammer incoming
Ever since Finland was confirmed this chat has been a mess
A good mess, but a mess nonetheless
no its not\
It is 🤡
Better luck next reserve
its not there is more than just water in it
That’s your first warning. No more of that talk please.
Pepsi is simply a flavoured water with caffeine and sugar
same as all the other sodas's same stuff
Like most drinks, yes
juice
What if instead of being transported back to land when you go into deep water, you get a WASTED screen like you do in the early GTA games
You just die
You just die in "real life" too
“Oh! Glub glub glub”
Or you just have to get wasted irl
Brown bear or moose attack should leave you incapacitated and unable to move... The park ranger should have to medevac you out and you cant hint for 12 months
hint=hunt
petition to make my summer car easter egg on the new map
more of a mr pibb fan myself
A kangaroo squared up with me today
Nice
can't wait to see the new boat blind
Did you win
mountain goat heaven
It’s a clue moose are coming to SRP lol
Is there a release date yet?
No
Ok
I hope so
aint that from My summer Car?
You think its gonna be worth something?
I hope you actually have good enough camouflage
yes
5 more days before the trailer... hopefully 🤞🏻
it is, thats exactly why
I'd love that
anything been confirmed in the past few days?
no
What is actually reset in the update? I know about the maps but what does that mean? Only have to rediscover all lookout point etc? Replay missions? Trophies removed?
No, no, Its just, the animals and zones being reset bassically.
So, it was as if you havent shot or discovered any animal on the map yet.
All animals on those maps will be gone, and a new set of spawns will be generated
@dreamy goblet @glacial summit Oh, that's good. Thought it would be like when I started playing again a while ago and pretty much all progression was lost for whatever reason. Thanks!
Aye, no problem ;)

It would be really cool if they added a trap/skeet area on revontuli coast or heirshfelden shooting range
that would be a good idea a shotgun range
Sharing info from SteamDB is against the rules?
god please no
they better have the flush mechanic
the upland fowl
TK said they won't
The capers shouldn't but kinda weird that nothing has it
All good lol I was just curious
English is my first language and I say stuff that is way dumber
nice bro
that's a horrible design choice lmao
so essentially they'll be like turkey, pop them with a 22.
No, he said each of the different birds will act differently even the different duck species. They will still fly away, but not as they are currently, they will just have a much better flushing than currently
he said that for the waterfowl specifically no?
I never heard that related to upland at all
He said that about all birds
I’ve watched the last stream two times and that’s how he described it
all the birds react differently so you hunt them differently
Or what he said was vague enough to cover all birds.
pretty sure he said that about the upland birds
yeah more of a blanket statement and nothing to go deep on. next week tuesday we will actually see it in action
give me a sec
So I guess we will see how the waterfowl work next week and how the upland birds work the week after
It all comes down to interpretation, really. And that can be twisted in SO many ways
THIS IS FINE
i hate pheasant
i want to shoot them when i want
We'll get the confirmation on this next tuesday with the waterfowl at least
I need to remind you, all of what you see in these streams is WIP and all subject to change
So it could change quite rapidly
But we will see
It's gonna change based off how the community takes the current system
that's what was said 🤷♂️
if the community wants them to have the "grounded" system that will be implemented
Fair enough. I'll just be sad if the grouse won't interact with trees at all..
But, you know, engine limitations and all.
Halfway up would be enough for hazel grouse, actually.
They tend to stay low to the ground, (all grouse do, really) but I think spruce trees may be their favorite
Lookimg forward to it very much. Been practicing on the pheasants all month
BUT, if they don't interact with trees, then there's just one thing to it. Pointer dogs
I guess I'm biased by the way I hunt those things
and when it comes to rabbits, beagles and known routes should be a thing.
I'd love a pointer
Because that's how we hunt them, the dog get's the rabbit out, they do their circle , then just change your position so you can sit at the route and shoot as they come past.
pointers are really fun in classic
Would fun but doesn't sound likely to me tbh lmao
I HOPE they take some of the birds for the existing maps
That is the unfortunate reality, yes (as we know)
Ye if they make it similar to classic where they run and hide a pointer would be great
and good enough for me tbh going for rabbits in classic is pretty fun
Finnish hunting dogs all have a purpose, and that's one purpose only: hounds chase the rabbits or foxes to the line for the hunters to take them out. Pointers show the location of the birds so the accompanying hunter(s) know where to look for the jumping bird when it takes off after making the said dog to flush it. And then there's the spitz, which hopefully chases the bird up to a tree, and then it mesmerizes the bird with its bark so that the hunter can approach the tree, spot the bird, and shoot it, preferably while not spooking the bird.
And then there's the two other species.. the Norwegian moose hound that has the purpose of finding the moose and making it to stay put so the hunter can find, locate and shoot it. Same thing for the Karelian Bear Hound
(All literal translations from Finnish)
Interesting to know, thanks.

Also, shooting at birds at a long distance with relatively large caliber rifles isn't uncommon. I take out Black Grouse with .308 and I suspect that the class system in this game won't allow it.
Problem is that the game doesn't have FMJ ammo
.22H supremacy
there are polymer tips
Just to prove the point:#🥩︴irl-hunting message
oh wait, now I know what you mean
22H is a lot like the 223 in my eyes. Fairly obsolete
In game or?
Oh shit, we're into the caliber discussion again
in game yes
It’s nice to have the option of a 1-2 rifle tho. Good on maps where there’s class 1 and 2, but not 3, like Yukon, Layton, and Mississippi
More variety, more better
I'm just saying, introduce FMJ to reasonable calibers and make them class 1 eligible
the thing that makes the 22LR so good is the "22 trick"
stopping any animal you want is nice
That is true, but I’ve also found that running up and making them go alert usually has the same effect
variety doesn't really matter to me if it's 'pointless" variety. If that makes sense.
Personally, it’s a nice option to have. There’s no other class 1-2 rifles in the game
It’s a niche role that can work for some people
It just makes me think of how incredibly underpowered the 223 in game is
Hmm.. That would be neat, FMJ ammo that is class 1 only
a 223 should drop a coyote, and it barely hits lung at 75 meters...
i think its a decent gun but its a bit more specialized
I prefer shotgun for 1s n .22h for 2 n 3s
Yeah, hence why I say a modest buff to power would be nice
tbh the best time in cotw was when the mosin could ethically take coyote
.22H classes 1-3 wen
There is still a Layton mission to take down Coyotes woth .270. Why?
just kill non-trophy coyotes with it
Ok they should change that coz its teaching new players what to do wrong
I asked this earlier, but can I share info from SteamDB or is it against the rules?
I think 1-2 is a good niche. Don’t wanna displace both the .22LR and .243 with a single rifle
DM me that link and I’ll take a look
Wouldn't replace either
dms closed
Try now
- It's a slow firing bolt action
- Doesn't do well on frontal shots when the .243 would
- It's DLC
I personally think it’s too large of a class range for the intended usage
Nah lynx and bobcats are both class 3 and it works like a dream on them
Not sure why they're class 3 but they are
When it comes to point 3: It comes with a map and isn't a mandatory purchase
It's handy, sure. But technically not necessary
yes which makes it even less likely to replace the .243 if they did buff it lol
FINland will be the best reserve ever do you agree?
If the waterfowl are on par with classic, 100% gonna be my favorite
To be honest, the weapon classes make no sense. I'd rather see different ammo classes. But that's just my opinion as a community member.
it is goonna be the best reserve ever but i expected new land animals
There is a point to it tho, can't go too big with a .22
they could just do allowed ammo for each species like classic but i think that's too advanced for some people lol
since the classes are just a number above an animals head when you spot them so it makes it simplistic
tbh finland doesn't have too much on that front that we don't already have in the game
What I'm thinkin is that, let's say, there's a .243 FMJ that's good for 1-3, but then there's .243 expanding bullet that's good for 3-6 for ecample
would be nice
The .223 FMJ would be perfect for grouse, or .308 FMJ
Anything between would work of course
cause tbh I don't like carrying around 4 guns just so I can shoot everything on the map lol
And it would improve marksmanship in a sense, grouse vitals are in a pretty small area
It's pretty much there:
And that at 150 meters away is not a big target.
about 5cm in diameter
Sooo use a bullet that it larger than 5cm?
I suspect we will have the summer colours, unless corrected
ok ty
Yeah that’s what I thought hosen
All jokes aside I think ballistics in this game could see a massive overhaul
You don't understand ballistics, do you?
Im sorry it was a really bad joke
My bad
I do have some what of a grasp on ballistics although I have a lot to learn
Unless they pull out the winter weather change for that region only out of the hat
I’d love it if Finland had the Yukon valley snow mechanic
If that’s what you are talking about
i hope
It looks beautiful regardless
i wanted a part of the map all time snow
It would be cool but I think the northern lights might’ve taken it over
Yeah maybe
northenr lights are in winter
Weird lesson about ballistics, same .222 (not a typo) through a capercaillies heart: flies away, found with a dog next day.
same rifle, similar .222 round, shot through a capercaillie leg, the shock was enough to kill it. Maybe it hit the femur.
Every now and then I get to see them where I live but it’s extremely rare seeing how close to the equator I live
They are always a dark red or orange though
Result for the latter: #🥩︴irl-hunting message
My first and so far only capercaillie
I was on leave from the Finnish Defence Forces for my birthday and that happened.
I have the tail of that bird on by bookshelf as a trophy
are you from finland'
Yes
nice
I mean it says it right there:
I was on leave from the Finnish Defence Forces for my birthday and that happened.

there is screenshots of the snow?
What snow?
I didn't know it was going to have snow
uhmmm
Did they say or show it having snow?
there was a pòst
you knows
a post in an outpost
i dont know how to explain
a map an an outpost
No it only snows
maybe
this?
Could have snow like TA
I don't like it that theres no snowy section
I really wanted some dense forest covered in snow
with birbs flying through
There saving the snow for the next map ||NORTHERN CANADA||
we will see a different part of the map in the next stream
there is no snow section ¯_(ツ)_/¯
he's talking about the pic on the outpost map
ohh
Ye it had a white area on the top of it
but I'm p sure it was just for the highlands

the white area is out the mapç
ye ye yeye
OH yeah baby
New Map. Out already?
we have medved bro
go hunt feedzones in medved if you want that
no
theres no birds
no dense alive forests
This
I'm gonna hunt a lot in that corner..
There is snow inside the borders on the map only not shown on the full map ... and outside the borders it's shown because there is just more
the map of the stream
was the full map?
or there is more map above it?
i want snow bro
There isn't going to be much more snow i think
But maybe they did it like on Yukon where the snow comes and goes
If I'm not mistaken in the devstream it was raining and it was just water, I don't think it will also snow
it cant be both
True.. well no snow then
Ye i have played medved and yukon a lot because of the snow
Oh btw for anyone it concerns: reindeer and caribou are actually not the same thing. They are similar, but not the same. Caribou are slightly larger and have longer legs, and migrate hundreds of miles to breeding grounds. Reindeer do not share this migratory behavior
I hope they put it as pinned or something, for 3 years people here have had the same discussion about them 🤦♂️
People won’t check the pins lol
