Abandoned City Reserve DLC

[keen radish]

Does anyone remember the town of Centralia PA? It was abandoned due to underground coal fires that made the ground unstable and caused toxic fumes to leak around sidewalks and streets. I was thinking about this, and thought about how the wildlife has taken over, just like in Chernobyl. Obviously, it's not necessarily safe to hunt from these places, especially around old and ruined buildings, but I thought there may be a way to make some sort of lore reason why an abandoned city has become a game reserve that allows hunting. You can also make different biomes of all the different zoning types. For example, overgrown suburbs, a plains like industrial park, grassy highway lanes, and I'm sure the list could go on. Maybe make some of the buildings function like a stand, or just have access to roofs, or go inside half collapsed buildings and use it like a blind. Let me know what yall think.

Can we hunt crack heads?

[dawn grail]

No, js let’s stop this one here

If you wanted to hunt crack heads, your local police office surely has applications lol. In this case, I was thinking of basing this idea somewhat around Centralia PA, so rabbits, coyotes, turkeys, deer, black bear, etc. I somewhat also got the idea from Crysis 3, so take that as you will.

So nem but an abandoned city

[old meadow]

I was boutta say, a map based on Centralia, PA would literally just be NEM but as a nasty “abandoned” city (I say “abandoned” because Centralia isn’t even fully abandoned, it’s still got residents).

[keen radish]

In any case, you can essentially put this abandoned city anywhere in the world. It doesn't have to be based solely in Centralia if that isn't what the community would want. I just figured it would be something unique within the cotw lineup.

There's tons of abandoned mining towns all over Australia. Especially in the western half of the country. This could be essentially bush rangers run with an abandoned shack town in the map. It's doesn't need to be the whole map, but it would be cool to see it as part of the history of the map.

Kind of like the mill on Yukon Valley but with a few more open buildings that animals can pass by or maybe a slightly restored shack to serve as an outpost

[shut nebula]

If this could be like planet of the apes that’d be insane hahaha imagine hunting chimpanzees on those tall buildings

[winged osprey]

I mean I'm against as a map like this but a larger ghost town would be fun, an Arctic or outback reserve would fit well, they have already slightly tapped in to the topic on srp

[zealous coral]

I would say yes, but i dont think this would fit into the COTW universe but in another game , Sure

[karmic bridge]

a hunting game similar to COTW that's based in a post-apocalyptic world sounds pretty awesome. I'd definitely play a game like that if EW made it.
