Yes
What is it?
Mountain hare
kinda hard to read
I know it's gonna be more than likely a Brown Bear or Moose
Meant moreso on thoughts of using boats to hunt LMAO
But I appreciate you looking to give feedback
Heres all the new multi-mounts btw
For some reason black bear got one along the new animals
Fabled yes confirmed? 
Spoiler warning please
for some reason non of my rifles are even hitting
The new red dots are fuckin NUT worthy. Don't even need a rifle. I have slugs and a good optic lol.
They are really nice
It feels good to have them be usable for sure. Now I've gotta kill a diamond with slugs and the starter shotgun.
Im on the lookout for a diamond moose
Just got off work where do you guys say I should get out on the map first when I get on?
Shot a super rare capercaillie
I just found out that according to the internet pretty much every whitetail here in finland originate from 7 whitetails that was released in 1938 and I am right here where they were released 😄 Laukon kartano
I had a bunch of initial spawn 200-230's. Was having fun smacking them around.
I think so
Lucky sumbitch.
not sure if it was actually 7 but very few
So it is moose then…
nice
Vähä kaikkial ainaki sillee sanotaa...
I've been playing other games to bide my time till the update. It bit me in the ass. I keep missing birds lol.
Only thing about the map is that i find it very unrealistic of the whitetail in the "tunturi" zones
Irl they are not there lmao
In finland theres whitail only in the southern part so not realistic yeah
but also raccoon dogs?? wtf
I live in the eastern parts and hike in lapland almost every year
I have a pie female that spawned in Layton by accident
Deffo no whitetail anywhere in sight
4.64
I think i just found a 5 minimum
It wasnt 5 but im not complaining
Looks so good
That's cool I'm just looking for Eurasian teal to setup a spot and just hunt em till I get a diamond
It was hype, saw that it was white got excited saw it was level 3, jaw dropped 😅
I haven't seen a single bird on the ground
I had good luck here, maybe you will too
Thanks but I have a Whitetail to slay
Anyone have a drink time list
And some pics to take
I have killed atleast 30 rock ptarmigans with 0 golds, need that and a hare for the mission
The island is the best place for waterfowl for me… every species so far
Also when do brown bear drink on rev
ITs very good also, only way to find mallards and goldeye for me
I just spin around the top of the map for capercaillie
Keep finding moose,wt and bears out there too
been doin that for what feels like 5 hours
and whitetaik
there is the pic of the pieboy
ye
Do you know when bears drink
no idea
I actually thought that we'd get to row the boat crossing water. Would've been pretty cool.
I kinda hoped we could use it for waterfowl hunting
Same.
Anyone know any good hare locations?
I dont see that many hares
Im kinda happy that they arent like whitetail rabbit
Literally everywhere
After i get this 1 gold i hope i never see one again
Thats very good
I got almost exact same thing today lol xD
Really nice trophies 👍
I will never top off my capercaillie
Im 1500 kills deep in red deer grinds and i have 2 diamonds
dont let it go to your head I have just explored the blue trail
My luck is awful
You will if you find the new Great One for us with that insane luck lol
Same. Was just following the trail and got the diamond bird earlier.
Just enjoy the walk. You'll get one. Don't stress yourself.
I will make sure to try
I will keep that birb in my lodge for ever
Hes so pretty
I haven't done it yet, is there a mission diamond bird at the end of it?
I'm not finished yet but the bird was just there sitting on the way.
Making a capercaillie/grouse area
Any idea if the birds actually pickup our scent?
I think they do
I think so too
Agreed on weak sense of smell. I just walked on that diamond earlier within 30m.
Other birds seem to be more alert. That was the last one I shot.
I shot my diamonds with the 22.
100+ meters
I like just picking em off with it
Today i hunted with a friend shotgun only
It was fun too
So happy with this map, definitely one of my new favorites.
I switched to shotgun after that bird and haven't gotten anything. Lol. Just strolling atm.
Became my favourite one after that super rare caper 😅
Is .62-.72 max estimate for willows?
Haha, no doubt. SRP is still the og map though.
is a grey brown bear rare?
SRP is kinda too easy tbh.
My srp is STOCKED
@merry cloak true, but the verticality is unparalleled.
It was a first of its kind and it kinda spoiled us.
SRP only map with no population reset?
@lament forge I dont believe so, every map population does.
I think there was 1 exception
Was it released in a note by the devs?
Not every map was reset
With reset does it mean that you lose your previous spawns?
the maps that were in the notes
Like supposedly having a GO and lose it?
Yes and zones etc
unfortunately yes
Ohhhh, i see what you mean
So you lose the zones you have located?
Yup
That's interesting.
Not really a big deal for the majority of players, but still kinda annoying.
Makes the game playable after a long time of staying in the same map. Bummer for those who grinded for a GO though/
Yeah, i was 1500 kills deep in red deer grind, and quatro was reset
But i really dont mind
1500 kills is a few days job
I really don't like doing mods aside from aesthetics.
I dont mind mods but Rule J in #📜︴rules
I got my warning earlier
Or not really a warning but anyway
Oh there's a rule for it. I just noticed. Lmao.
my bad, wasn't aware
Common mistake i made myself haha
It makes sense, and personally I don't use mods because I enjoy the grind. Especially this new map. Been playing since the game originally released and the devs continue to surprise me with their ingenuity.
True. If you skip the grind. It makes your game boring and uninteresting.
There's always a satisfaction when you went through it
I can agree with levels etc
I have grinded to lvl 60 on ps4,xbox and pc
I think the most underrated part of the map is the diversity of bases. I saw a campfire in the distance and was like "aw heck nah" so stoked to see that variety.
As a finn i love the small details
no but fr i was so happy to see the different outpost they made
Tons of jokes and such for us haha
The fast travel boats too, they really thought through the locations to ensure seamless gameplay.
seeing other finns up made me start up my pc and get back up lmao
100%. I just got a base camp with like half of a shack w a campfire. Really awesome.
I need to fix my sleep schedule so allnighter it is
Seeing this kind of attention to detail has me so stoked for the Angler. These guys are geniuses.
Brother, I can't wait to move on from Fishing Planet. LOL
Really hope they do good job with the Angler, most of the fishing games are pretty boring after like 30 mins
And they have bad mechanics etc
If its anything like the Hunter I think we will be spoiled rotten. I don't like getting my hopes up, but dang are they high at the moment.
Same, i hope it will bring us some of that fishing joy in the winter
probably not the best idea
i speak from experience btw
It’s okay just ingest copious amount of adderall and caffeine and you will be okay
any moose hotspots yet?
Or cocaine
@lament forge for real though. I hate ice fishing irl.
Cocaine and adderall are interchangeable
Whichever is more readily available to you
i literally live with beer, meat, cigarettes and coffee lmao
i mean.....
5 drinking zones on this lake here
I got 3 zones at Kaksoset.
Rate the update 1-10
6 if you count the mini lake under it
anyone else encountered the issue where you can't complete "Shot for Shot" on Parque Fernando?
a strong 9.5
This one is Kaksoset
yeps :D
I used to live on coffee, beef, and skoal but then i met a Vegan. And now I just eat beef.
Just glassing here. I think until evening (ingame)
Man i wish my PlayStation could go downloading more than 5gb at a time before freezing and needing a force reset to download the update
and the name made me chuckle when i went there first
it means puddle in finnish
yes lätäkkö and valkohuippu
That's a big puddle then lol
i wonder if i can get a bottle of tapio from there 👀
i saw the northern lights earlier today while looking for raccoon dogs
prettyy
This basecamp really looks cool
THAT DUMPSTER
Vergi better 😄
IT MESSES IT UP
i liked em
Missions are very short
How many missions are there
Saab is very delicate machine
9-3 or riot
How much for taunus 😄
it was cheap
really rusted out but it has been completely welded
or atleast the places they check at inspection 😄
How do i make my bloodhound howl?
😄
You need a skill for it
step on their toes
after that?
I dont know I didnt pick that skill probably hold b and select something
Thats the problem, not in B
Novittu what about x
revontuli moose drink time?
joo ei
Kato googlesta 😄
kvg
Just nii
New GO news?
Someone just told me it was a bear but idk if it’s true
And those can be edited
I remember I was able to make my dog howl before.
i want it to be a moose tbh
Fan made? That looks like a giant fallow to me lmao
SOMEBODY FOUND IT
imagine they actually did something like this
That might as well be The Greatest One. Lol
i wish we got something like this for april fools or something lmao
My april fools wish would be a really mad moose or bear who just kills hunters lol
ooh shoot, is this Dragon's Dogma II?
Yes
There was so much story potential on this map, Sad they "wasted" it
Story dlc for a dlc 😄
i would buy it :D
first max estimate. not bad
deffo!
The harvest models are really looking good man.
do we know what the great one is yet?
trust me, you will know when we find out
is a level 5 raccoon dog max?
9
NOPE
WhY is it 9 😭
i was happy and thought i was lucky
because Raccoon dogs are anggy
i haven’t found any dimes yet
i saw a peidbald white tail but like that’s it
i think i found a rare bean goose it was dark grey idk
I got a albino 154 white tail
i got a rock
still havent founbd any hares
not rare
I got a piece of driftwood 
i’m sader now
bro i’ve already killed a lot of goldeneye and eurasian teal
Lol
Not the best of ideas
I was on a multi server and spotted a pied moose bull and the A-hole kicked me from the server
😒
I then decided to work on claiming outposts
Got 11 so far, not bad for the short amount of time I got to play today
I also managed to get a gold rated: brown bear, WT, Capercaillie and black grouse
I'm not 100% sure, I'll have to double check since I saved the harvest, but I think the brown bear was gold fur type too
I pretty much just saved all my harvests to hopefully replace them with better versions
fur type?
Yes
no, not at all
Ok
No not that I know of
Thanks
But I found it funny that it was gold rated, gold fur
wild boar great one?....
Man there is a nice spot for WT and Moose on Finland
If Moose happens to be the GO
ya there is a lot of WT close to starter spawn
Anyone else got hung on the guided tour 2 mission west of the rope bridge? Is there a way to unstick it?
266-320 estimate on a moose
Has anyone been having trouble on playstation? My game crashed multiple times and was buggy here and there
Rarity of piebald harlequin?
Common
Geezx it's absolutely spray and pray in Revontuli for ducks
There are SOOOOOO many at once
new great one mule deer?
Bru ps hunter crashes over literally anything
Lmao yeah... it does.... 😑
Someone on the EW live stream commented that there's a flyer on one of the bulletin boards saying missing cat. Wonder if the next GO is a lynx and that's why they removed the drink time? Cause that's gonna make grinding a million times harder.
lynx have a drink time on finland
I take it they're dehydrated on Medved? LOL
I swear either flinter or lady legend mentioned they lost a drink time. I could be wrong, but I know jackals lost them on vurhonga right?
Okay good. I've been so focused on Duck hunting I've completely ignored the other species. Duck hunting is addicting lol
So golden eyes are the ducks to hunt for cash I have discovered
OK I've learned lures need to be a good ways out
The decoys are not where they land but the general area... they should be 90-150m out
Birbs will land in their 'general area' which may be closer or farther.
the bug that allowed you to see fur types without disturbed veg was patched
Speed run finding the GO
Ducks=Money=time change=ducks🔄
Infinite money glitch
You dont even need to do the time change
All you need to do is set up every decoy on the island with a blind and you can hunt every duck
Endlessly
thats and ugly leucistic 😦
Dope.
That's what I did and it's working perfectly! And use a tripod. You can see where they land and don't have restricted sight like the layout blind
Leucistic still looks decent enough.
Tripod for waterfowl changed everything for me
Makes things 100x easier
GREAT ONE IS BLACK BEAR
The new great one has been found on Revontuli Coast release day! It is a GREAT ONE Black Bear!! All credits to GrandCerf and Dusan Niko for letting me know about this. theHunter Call of the Wild.

GREAT ONE on Hi...
Tbh im kinda dissapointed and hyped
How the heck did someone already get one??? That's freaking lucky!
Wish it was moose 😦
I mean, making them a Legendary Spirit Bear is well, interesting.
Agreed
I mean, Spirit Bears are a subspecies of Black Bears so, yea.
I never liked black bear
So bassically, the new GO is a Kermode Bear I guess.
Yea.
its kinda cool but i still wish it was moose
They could quite easily be faked, but we will see what the rest of the Content Creators or Community Managers say.
I mean, having it be a Black Bear gives some love to Layton and Mississippi I guess.
Isnt it usually that when it is discovered it is also confirmed by ew?
Usually, yea. But well, lets see if theyll confirm it.
I just can't believe the Great One spawned in on someone's map first day. That's a little sus, but I guess it's possible. I saw someone got a GO whitetail from an initial Mississippi spawn
I got a initial super rare on revontuli
But if it truely is a Black Bear, wouldnt they have also redistributed / reset SRP??
First one posted to this discord
I only got an Albino Female Brown Bear initial spawn so far ;-;
What was it
Nice
Thats very cool.
I got my whitetail GO in the first spawn too on Rancho Del Arroyo
Imma start grinding whitetail
I havent even got one diamond yet
I just feel like it now
Nice!! I got a leucistic teal today! But it's not a super rare lol
I have just under 200 hours and 22 diamonds
Dang ya'll are lucky with the GO. I haven't even started grinding yet cause I'm not ready for it lol
I have under 40h
TBH, Ill wait for EW to confirm it before I start setting up, lol.
Yes 😄
I will do the same
If it is fake it is really well done
Yea.
I am planning on grinding red deer on te awaroa with the update. Then I might try for a black bear
I grinded red deer on quatro and now it got a pop reset
Feelsbadman
Also, the whole story about someone sending the new GO picture to only his friend and them sending it to a YTer instead of them sending it straight to the Community Discord sounds a bit wierd.
wait what?
they did a partial reset of SRP
I mean he could watch the youtuber without being in this discord
So we cant see it in finland?
That sucks.... I had to recently restart my character so I lost all of my unlocked DLCs so I've been just playing the maps I feel like. So far thats just been Mississippi, te awaroa and now Rev!
Nope
I guess, ye.
oops wrong reply
But sadly no
I wanted moose as well.
new go is actually black bear
we know
cool
yea :(
4 in a row
Turns out there is actually 5
Someone found the new go
Really
What does it look like
Is that brown bear?
Black bear
Can I find greylag geese at that island
Ok im not gonna setup a grind
Yea thats why i asked
you would have to be a photoshop god to fake 4 screenshots from different angles
Ok if you are playing singleplayer do no quit the game while doing the main mission you will break it
Theres not only the kill screen screenshot
Theres more
i dont believe it until EW confirms it
Good reserve but
Air very alive
but population on the ground is dead
also if i go to my inventory to many times then my inventory wont load anymore
also the birds flee a 0.7 sec to fast
thats all
the population on the ground is far from dead
this. It is one of the most alive maps i have seen rn
Atleast on my populations
So much whitetail and moose
oh gosh, don’t summon the negativity here too 😂
I still wont believe it until it is confirmed by EW
Looks legitimate
The medal is what has me suspicious
Lets go Layton 🏃♂️🏃♂️🏃♂️🏃♂️
Its different
Because it’s a predator GO
But has it been confirmed? No.
well true, i will await for my confirmation before starting the grind
What the drink time for black bear ???
You would think they would have had to touch Silver Ridge Peaks animal population for a Black Bear GO
Now this why they didn't reset SRP
SRP got a partial reset
I have seen it about 10 times now
Mctube talked about this ,he was right
No way the great one is a black bear
dumb 😦 I was hoping for moose as it would have made more sense, but sorta cool i guess
just my honest opinion not trying to be negative or toxic
Would've been cool if you could have hunted it in the new map tho
Has anyone else gotten it yet ?
Has anyone really had enough time to get a GO yet? Or has anyone seen more proof than a single sorce?
Why tf is it so small though LOL
My 1st look from opening lookout tower and all I can think is "WOW" looks beautiful I'm gonna enjoy this
when I went up in the opening lookout tower, a flock of bean geese flew over, and if I wanted to I could smoke them with my shotgun
was pretty cool
Nvm its because its a black bear, thought it was a brown bear lol
Cant quite read french
Anyway i was right lol
It's not a great one
I don't think that's the new GO as they had polls for what we would like as a new GO and the top three things voted were Moose, Elk, and Brown Bear. Also plus a new map that has Brown Bear and Moose and them "Confirming" there's anew GO on the new map. Plus there's not black bear on the new map
Did they confirm it's on the new map? 👀
They "Confirmed" it during one of the early live streams
I was talking about black bears being the great one@rancid pecan
But they are the great one
No they are not
they actually are
Why would the new great one not be on the new map. It would take the player's eyes off of the new map though
that i cannot answer
That makes no sense
But why a black bear when they had a poll and the top three voted on was Moose, Brown Bear, and Elk?
Bruh
possible they did that poll after development on that new GO started
Because polls dont directly determine the future
I wanna so badly but I'm not even done opening Revontuli yet
the poll is likely to influence a future GO tho
Bro who actually guessed black bear
Me lol
I didnt even want black bear
Because of the new multimount
I said it the moment they randomly threw in a black bear multimount with Revontuli ... because every Great one in game has a multimount
This is the first time they ever add a new multimount for a species thats not part of the new map
It would have been weird of them to do it without a reason
Of all the animals, Black bears?
Or the Moose
Or grizzly
I was almost certain it would be the moose
I guess its because
Its a basegame animal
They didnt want to make 3 antlered species in a row
Its on 3 maps
But still its weird, because honestly moose would have been more sensical, being on the new map
Like who today said I'm gonna grind black bear
I’m struggling to find any animals
What ever though I like the wt g1 the most because its actually different fur types
And my prediction of the pattern 1 from layton, 1 from hirsch, 1 from layton and yada yada was correct
Sorry didnt mean to reply lol
I wish it was moose g1
Bro g1 caribou
Lol
A great one black bear……
I mean I always get excited when I can hunt the black bears I do love a good bear hunt, but i never load the game and think huh lets hunt black bears today, or even could have done a g1 canadian goose
It just looks like a normal bear besides the color
Yep
Thats why many of us said GO non-antlered animal would suck
But people were like "nooooo, GO bear kooool"
...
It should have some like scar tissue or something
I mean a GO bear would be cool
But make it look like it earned that GO title I think
I was thinking it would be a bit more impressive
Honestly just looks like a cinnamon bear
Patchy fur from fighting, scars, significant size difference, just somethings that would probably make for a more interesting looking go bear
i don’t think i’ll be convinced until i see another.
I mean if catnip said it was, I’m ok with that
Til i see it myself in my own game 🤷♀️ i think they super shot themselves in the foot a little here not making it a GO for an animal on revontuli
i didn’t see that earlier 🤔👀 what catnip said
It is weird it wouldn’t be a brown bear
that is what I was thinking
Start here
@mental dust ^
Could have been for any of the birds too as a GO
This message specifically
excuse you.
it’s cashnip.
You can not blame me for auto correct
but I can blame you for being lazy.
You know I’m to lazy to change anything my phone changes
cashnip
For comparison (ignore i missed vitals loll)
there is a special place in the permafrost for that phone.
seems a little wild to make the GO not on your new DLC, but the devs have their secret ways
Not cinnamon bears in game, should have specified, we have bears up here in MT that where a cross between a grizzly and a black bear leading them to be a little larger than a black bear but no hump with a cinnamon color, so we call them cinnamon bears
Agreed
I have seen more lynx on this map then I ever saw on my medved grind
Still trying to find the melanistic one I saw before I had to go to work
Oh i see
Never seen a black bear irl, so ill just trust you on that lol
I think that was because there was a lot of content already tossed into RC, they wanted to give non-waterfowl players a thing to hunt this update too.
Revontuli is for sure already better for Lynx hunting, though the very first Lynx I killed on MV was a piebald
I mean it does put some interest back into Layton since it is got the GO and the waterfowl update
And a wipe
2 possible species for initial GO spawns
Tbf whos ever gonna use layton or missisippi
SRP for the win come on
Its so much better
Same goes for mallards, Revontuli seems much better
People who want ducks and Roosevelt elk, and blacktails
I would actually use Layton for Black Bear GO grinds
I mean to grind black bear
I still use Layton over SRP
SRP didn’t get wiped
And mine is over ran with female pronghorn
Lmfao
Female pronghorn EVERYWHERE
How did you even do that lol
No idea
But I used to have piebalds every where to
At one point in a span of like 4 weeks I think I had 8 mounted piabald pronghorn
Ye they were uncommon in the past
Idk why though
Pronghorns are money machines
Is great one found ?
Black bear
Ye, black bear
Oh...
See above
Piebalds seem to be really popular in the female animals
So no go in revontuli
Mine where all male
Sad
I mean golden eye are rivaling geese for top money makers right now
Has the black bear go been confirmed or is it still just the screen shots
I’m averaging about 5k a flock
See above
1000 each
Its insane
@lone raft
And you don’t even have to use the call for them to land so I just sit there till they all bunch up and take out like 6 of them with 1-2 shots
Could have still been photoshopped. i will just wait until a content creator or a video is published
The target practise mission got bugged out for me, the 300m target doesn't work, what can i do? I already tried to restart the game and tried to do a side mission but it still doesn't work
Yeah
For some reason the content creators think they are attracted by the mallard caller, but they are just coming into decoys
All the ducks are
I had teals land on mallard decoys
Ye
If thats really the GO Then im highly disappointed
i found a bear and a lynx sitting together, what are they talking about?
Anyone know what time u can see the northern lights
What times best I've got it out 133 but just stars
idk they appeared as soon as the sky got dark
Man hearing "banana" repeatdly through the forest and not knowing what it is, is kinda scary.
a grouse
yea. i saw it eventually, but at first i was like WTF is that.
lmao yeah
oh wow, I'm surprised it didn't take that long to find the new GO
Seems sketch how it was killed but them adding black bear multi mounts and the great one supposedly being black bear lines up so it’s probably true
this reminds me of some old finnish jokes where a rabbit and bear talk
New great one?
Anyone know of any new good black bear spots?
this has been posted like 50 times already
oh ok
its not confirmed yet tho
Cashnip has confirmed it though
cashnip is not a dev.
its not an official confirmation
it was pinned due to the image being spammed in #🦌︴great-ones
Well they still said that's what they said.
Do moose live in the south aswell or just north?
well? its still not confirmed by EW
It's been confirmed. Look in #🦌︴great-ones
it's pinned in there
read please
i was in the chat for multiple hours
Okay, now I know why they were having a party yesterday!!
the pinnen command is from a normal user not from EW
from a mod but not a dev
woah
mods are not associated with the dev team in any way.
geee dang
srp?
Thats sick
Why would the great one be a scam of course its confirmed
lol
How do you guys hunt on Revantuli? You need like 67 different callers... o.O
I mean I'm just running around basically trying to locate all of the outposts
Which has been harder than Mississippi by a great deal
And cuatro
I really, REALLY wish the Codex was structured better in this game. Especially with this new map it's almost impossible to identify which species are the map, what weapons and callers to use for them and how to hunt them in any intuitive manner. You have to go to profile and leaderboard thing to see which species are on the map, then cross reference with the Codex under wildlife where everything is just one long list of animals to find what caller and class weapon to use for what animal.
Why can't the Codex be listed/grouped to show animal information under the reservation info itself? So frustrating.
Is the main mission seriously just walking around in a big circle?
I'm a little dissapointed I didnt run into any of the Baden family this time around
I want the full recording of the music the guy played to us in the start. Where can I find his album?
check out my black bear guide for silver ridge peaks updated
im just going to jump on and start my grind for one now 😉

ok
?
Finally i got a diamond capercallie!
im trying to find a regular diamond one
need to do ying & yang set with normal diamond and my leucistic diamond
I must admit, when I saw that this map was bird centric, I was thinking I wouldnt get to do much big game hunting.
I was wrong. Have had loads of fun getting a load of Whitetail, some Moose and even a couple of bears.
thats cool!
Finland has a long history of Bear worship... yall should have read their history
Meet Father... the painting Finnish Bear
Well yes as a Finn i should have guessed it
I would of expected a GO brown...? Not black?
Unless there's two GO's this update.
Atleast we got a realistic spirit bear now. Not that Brown Bear Spirit stuff.
His paint splattered feet though 🥺
it is good
i hated it first but now its kinda growing on me
makes me want to hunt bear more
they worshiped Bears as the keepers of the Forest and that they carved life into the night.
Because... Spirit. Brown Bears. Dont. Exist. IRL. Spirit Black Bears are a Subspecies of the American Black Bear, so thats noice. And the one we got seems to be a big chonker.
Their folk lore wraps around various bears but all of them are considered sacred
it feels nice to have someone educate people a bit with finnish mythology
you have my thanks 🙏
Yeah... to think... I'm just some Texan LOL
Still its dumb and makes no sense
i have wanted to write my own book someday
There was a catch though... I kept wondering if they were going to slip in a surprise species... the other sacred animal of Finland is the Reindeer... Which could have been a dead giveaway... but when they didn't... Finish lore just left Bears.
A map with a strong history with bears but said bear is not on the map
so beautiful
damn makes me want to draw and paint again
I'm assuming they intend to go a bit bigger with the Brown Bears honestly
(That we know of)
one of the things i want to do to honour my ancestors is get a bear tattoo
I could totally see brown bear also having a GO this update like both models are very similar now
But then again no multimount i believe?
I suppose it's possible... but I've been holding back mentioning Finish history for quite a while now LOL
Lodge is likely next according to historical outcomes
To fit 19 species in it though... it's gonna have to be a huge lodge...
its nice to see that someone knows the history of my homeland
...which will soon be filled with Lynx... so sayith out local Kat @sudden ginkgo
Also... I would kill for one of those paintings... but holy hell the auction price...
Those bear paw paintings are insanely expensive
Apparently the way it works is they bring groups of tourists... lay down a large plate of paints... and the bear just goes to town on the canvas pawing at it and rolling around on it.
Ouch!
However... in Finish folk lore (and wiki)... In Finnish mythology Otso, Ohto, Kontio, metsän kuningas (the king of the forest), and mesikämmen (honeypalm) are some of the many rarely uttered circumlocutory epithets for the spirit that was never directly named. Generally, the spirit of the bear was referred to as friend, brother, uncle, or forestcousin, or ways were thought up that would bypass the need to refer to the spirit at all, even indirectly.
Some sub-traditions considered the bear to be a relative who had fled the community and been transmogrified by the power of the forest.
If a bear had to be killed, a sacred ritual of Peijainen, which was held, and the bear's spirit in the form of its skull remained in a sacred clearing which was upkept, and people would bring expiatory and tributary gifts to it.
For those who are not Finish... you REALLY might wanna stick to trying to say Otso... the rest is a tongue twister
...at least that and a few books is what I learned about it... honestly the research in this DLC was intense... and fun... yeah I'm one of those weird folks who likes digging through research...
Also according to their lore... young bears must be given their claws by the spirit of the Forest... to become the guardians like Otso.
Is the GO confirmed to be a bear or was it photoshopped?
The weird part is how everyone glossed over one thing that was mentioned...
They wanna make a GO of most of the species... which will mean GO updates periodically... new things to chase from time to time...
That's gonna be the fun part... people chasing together to try to get their GO
Judging from how much fun they've had with this one... I tend to think they're gonna make each one a secret LOL
Can someone clarify. Do the callers for the upland birds on Revontuli draw birds in, or just make them vocalize so you can find them? Or does each caller work differently ?
The west end of lake AavajArvi(in the valley) has a lot of geese and ducks, good for money
pic?
ugh course its not in the new map lol still cool but means ill have to change maps for it
i love duck hunting
what lake ?
Did anyone try making a Runebergitorrtu yet ? 🙂
I love the higher areas
As a finn yes, when it is runebergs day i always make em or when i feel lazy just buy em
small lake next to monument
left side
its good for mallard and wigeon
I need to find a proper recipe for it. I found some, but all sites were in Finnish and the ones on English sites didn’t look as yummy.
does anyone know the diamond scores for black grouse and hazel grouse?
What birds can you shoot while they are on the ground?
all except ptarmigan
ok thanks
wait, COTW has airborne / ground differentiation on the birds now?
the sound of some birds hear like spirits of the forest
can anyone give me a hint about where eurasian teal are? i dont want the exact place but a little hint?
Great logics
What's the drinking time for racoon dog?
I want to get on today and get some bird hunting done
00:00 - 03:00 i think
Raccoon dog hot spots
thats the whole map
raccoon dogs you find in the south
New GO news?
Or just reddit.
They drink almost everywhere on the map but that map is not 100% accurate, it needs more time
Hello
Hi
Tip: 22. Pistol and reflex scope with the new ammo, i shoot fleeing ducks out the air
So are ducks still easy to hunt then? Geese and ducks (presuming you got them to spawn / land) were super easy to hunt earlier. So easy that I never even bothered with a shotgun... just more ammo-efficient to literally snipe them out of the air with the .22 rifles.
So after the first day on this map, what would y’all rate this.
No shotgun better but if there fleeing away ant there backs are lined up with you you can hit them by sprying
But not esily
I see. So the birds are faster and moving more now then?
Guess I'll have to set up a blind and decoys on Revan and try ducks again then. I kinda stopped hunting them earlier cause it was too easy and just felt like shooting fish in a barrel.
Yes, and land a lot slower
And spook faster
There just shittier to hunt
Sounds good. I want there to be at least a minimum of effort. Not just, you know, aim east and pull the trigger and you get a bird kill.
But you'll get a lot of this
Slower*
A lot of what? Clouds?
I wish they circled in lower like classics ducks
They only get low soon as they land
Maybe I will like the geese better
Yeah classic had this downwards spiral tendency where they flew in a descending circle. Was rather predictable though.
Dlc is waiting its been gifted to me about to head home actually to open up my map
Ye but with the speed and wind direction I figure it would be a little less predictable
What maps got resets in release day
Every map besides SRP
Thank you
Birds circling for 20 minutes before landing
My stupid curious ass jumped into this building without claiming the outpost first and now I can't get out..
Ok
Anyone else find the Guide Tour Continues 2 - Follow the blue trail mission bugged?
It won't pickup or clear the waypoint when reaching it.
So it’s a black bear?
yes
Pog
Yep
Use the old caller and I've been setting up in the south right corner and been having pretty good luck, lots of golden eyes too
Fuck
what times do moose drink at?
Who the hell wanted a stupid bear
8-12
thx
the devs 💀
just accept it bro
mb
12-16
thanks
I did
This map is my new favorite
This map is filled with diamonds
Is it worth buying revutuli coast?
yes
Morning guys
does the map have type 9 animals
If you like your Spivey Kitties yes
I'm having difficulty shooting some animals when they are near tree's, good shots are completely missing the animal. Perhaps some of the trees have a larger hitbox than the tree itself?
no
nice, thx for the info
I think the max is the brown bear, class 7
oh yeah the moose
no there is moose
yep
Yea he remembered already
which is nice because I can equip a class 3 for the Lynx
What’s the new cat? I heard one yesterday
There isn’t one
Damn.
Eurasian Lynx..
Lynx from Medved were added to Finland
Can anyone recommend a shotgun to use on the birds in the new map?
Now lynx finally get the respect they deserve.
12ga cacciatore
Pick your favorite
I never rly used shotguns so i dont have a favorite
Big brain loadout I have been using:
-.22H
-Mosin
-Drilling
410 pistol
What shotguns do ya got?
what is a good rifle for class 3?
Mosin
It’s fire-and-forget on lynx
I hate my aim with the mosin
i have access to all except the cacciatore
Mosin is also good for whitetail
I would go with either the 20ga semi auto, 16ga pump, or 10ga lever gun
what classes does the Mosin cover?
3-7
3-7
ok nice
cheers
are there any class 2 birds?
Now to start to see where this loadout comes from
I can't close my doors :(
.22h is class 1-2
It stays open
yeah but then I miss out on class 3
LR22 for 1, M1 for 4-8
.223 or .243
@modest beacon
I never shut em. Waiting to see if a curious bear comes in and mauls me
.22, .243, .300 (but the .243 struggles on those higher classes)
ok thx
.22H for class 1-2, mosin for class 3 and 4, drilling for moose and brown bear, plus the birdshot in case anything flies over me
Still gotta get used to the birdshot tho lol
I still love dropping bison with the muzzle loader
The .223 covers 2-4, all good 👍
Lmao ok
I can keep the M1 😌
Lol
Canada Goose you shoot with the Panther revolver cause goose deserve nothing.
Are the ochre female capercaillie rare?
By the way guys, don’t fry bacon without a t shirt on. That stuff hurts.
no
Better yet .50 cal FMJ, lapua
Which bird is the prettiest one to hunt and taxidermy?
There is no 1-3 class rifle is there 🤔
Nuke Hirsh? I still need my Euro Bison though
No
Minor details
Luistic mallards and teal
hmm makes it difficult to cover 1-9 with three rifles
.40 off on my first ssi
Mosin is decently effective on class 6 btw. I tested it on reindeer, worked well
Ok I'll have a look at the mosin, thx
And it destroys class 3
It’s underappreciated
100%
It’s fire-and-forget on pretty much every class 3
ok nice
Yea cause the zeroing sucks
Yeah no class 3 is going anywhere after that
It’s why it’s my preferred lynx grinding rifle
As long as I hit the cat, they will die.
I can nick their ear and they will eventually die
I just realised today how OP bowhunting is
Like you drop shit left and roght
They dont hear you
Its amazing
You guys wouldn’t believe me but I missed completely and still got a kill!
The shockwave killed them
LOL
If you think about it
The mosin shoots the same diameter bullet as an AK47, so its no surprise that it drops class 3s
The bullet hit a fly which landed in the lynx's nostril and made it choke
Mosin is 7.62x54R
AKM is 7.62x39
If anything the mosin is bigger
Ballistically speaking, 7.62x39 is pretty equivalent to .30-30
So Tufted Ducks can't even be spotted in the air?
the mosin is the Solokhin MN1890 within the game?
The SKS was the “poor man’s deer rifle” in the 90s partly for that reason
Yes
Yip
ok thx
Iirc they’re scored by weight in grams so……..
yeah the rework is better but it's still rough lol
they didn't nail the circling at all
im a little disappointed you don't take the boat you teleport to the other side 😢
they circle for too long and dive right to the ground
anyone have a spreadsheet yet?
It is a significant improvement over the past tho, where waterfowl would just take off and come in in a straight line
I know...I remember what it was like before
