With all of the new animals in thinking about new mounts and I think it would be so cool if they would make "props" for the larger mount plots. Like say you take that snow leopard and put it on the largest floor mount there is but there was like rocks or something to fill the empty space or some "fallen trees" that they could be standing on our something like that. Just some more creativity in the lodge
The only thing I could think of with the tiger was the Jurassic Park 2 scene “GET OUT OF THE TALL GRASS!!!!!” With the raptors. Also in India people wear masks (Halloween not covid) masks on the back of their head to trick tigers into thinking they can see them
@@casedistorted They’re very endangered. That’s why it’s so cool to hunt them in game. India is completely closed to hunting, and I think Nepal is mostly restricted or completely closed to hunting all animals as well.
Some tigers in certain regions are actually learning the difference between mask and face resulting in the masks slowly becoming less useful/effective. They're freaking learning the clever bastards.
That and also from a general balance perspective it makes way more sense. Compared to all the other single shot rifles like the 7mm, the Hudzik, and the Curman, you get much less effective range due to lack of scope, and in the case of speed and class range it’s beat out by the 7mm. It still does look really fun and I am definitely gonna use it, but if you just gave it the ability to take down class 9 I could absolutely see people using it as a mainstay for big game hunting in the game. Think like a better balanced version of the .470DB.
@United_States1034 yeah still very similar to 45-70 and it was the weapon that would have been historically used by British hunting expeditions to the area and used on tigers.
by far my favorite part of this new map is just seeing the new models and the insane improvement overall on COTW's animals! ever since getting this game i have never been disappointed by an update.
In real life, tigers are less likely to attack if they realize that they have lost the element of surprise, so they probably will leave if you see them first.
@@warhub7035 And the fact that they actually make footsteps sounds in the direction they are coming from, and it seems like they're not attacking until they're 5 meters away. and you can just spot them through all that grass.. :S
Something interesting I noticed in this video is that I found a glitch on Te Awaroa about a year back where the animal’s track icon was replaced with the Himalayan tahr picture. I just realized while watching this video!
I wanna say that icon was shown when the map released as well and we were all expecting tahr to be added years ago. 😂 Hopefully Te will get them soon as well
Im from England not a gun country been playing this since release so got all weapons etc, so what's the most powerful or best shotgun? I always use the Cacc because back then it took months to unlock and buy. Is the 10g better? I don't do birds but rabbits are cool but i mainly do big game so looking forward to this map👍
Absolutely fantastic Expansive Worlds did an EPIC job with this map The landscape, the exotic location, the species and the new animal modeling All is absolutely stunning. This is a 10/10
The Martini Henri is such a iconic rifle. It was very precise for its time and packed a big punch. The top breach makes a very cool noise when being cycled
Was watching the livestreams and heard you talking about rehashing of certain things on the other maps. I was thinking how awesome would it be to grow on the existing stories on some maps. Like with Vurhonga they could play it out that the efforts to rebuild conservation have brought back other species that now need conservation control and protection.
I didn’t get a notification for this video dropping, it queued itself and when it started I wasn’t watching just listening. When I looked over and saw the yak and heard you say it I got goosebumps.
This map looks so special. I am beyond excited to hunt this map. I already knew Tahr Grind was gonna be difficult. But seeing how far down the mountains they are feeding makes it seem that much harder.
it would be cool if they gave the new rifle a scope and made it gun that can kill class 4-9 otherwise i feel like it might not get to much attention like the muskets
i've been really good about avoiding tiger attacks, but last time i played i was sneaking up on a lake for buffs and stepped away to grab a drink and right when i came back i got nurffed by a random tiger, i thought well shit, guess i gotta run back over here again, so i did, and i saw its tracks as i went, going towards where i came from so i figured well its must be long gone and spooked by now, got back to right past where i was and i heard an aggressive growl and it suddenly got me from behind out of nowhere, no time to even aim my gun. no warning growls, no anything, damn dog didn't even alert me it was near by or aggressive i had no idea. first time a tiger got me and it got me twice x"D
I've been so disinterested in cotw lately. It's still my favourite game to get onto, just can never find myself loading it up anymore. I've been trying to let this map hype me up but honestly, I don't even want to touch it because big game is still broken for me, my shots never penetrate even close range (max 50 meters or closer) ANY class 9 I hunt has this issue, along with occasionally my red deer, my moose all the time, sometimes foxes but maybe that's the gun and distance I hunt those at. I just want to be able to hunt without having to shoot the animal 7 times before it actually penetrates. I honestly don't even want to get the new map this time, because what are the odds they fixed the problem on this map when their other ones are broken as ever? Maybe someday I'll be happy with this game again, but I doubt that'll happen for a while, and that's a damn shame because this map is gorgeous, and I love hunting predator species. I can see tigers being broken like the wolves or other cats in the near future
Emerald coast and Mississippi Acres are not far behind, but I’m biased in saying that New England Mountains is my favorite map cuz I’m from PA and it reminds me of home. However, the animals this map provides is crazy, there is 0 doubt that this will rival a favorite map of mine to play on.
Foliage looking nice, i like the papaver and rhododendron. Great to have so many new animal species to study and learn. The Martini/Henry looks interesting and i think they've weighted the tiger behaviour at just the right amount of threat to fun. 😊
Wow, EW really outdid themselves with this one. The animal models are the best ones we've ever had and the map looks like its absolutely huge. The scale translated really well through the video. Cant wait to get my hands on it
I do agree there. We'll hunt them some on stream today with the drink zones tho! You'll see (if you can stop by) that its not TOO predictable, but I do kinda hope they take them away
Honestly would've loved if they made it so you couldn't spot the tiger once it was in its sneaking/stalking mode to make it more terrifying. Besides that, this map looks amazing! Gonna be insane!
Hey Flinter, I was curious if you’re able to do a new beginner series, since your previous one could be outdated and there has been reworks to the animals in game, I’m also new to the game and want the best chance to be successful, and I want to do that by learning what I need from you, the best theHunter player in my opinion.
I can’t wait for the map to drop. Though I personally would’ve included a few more species like Sambar and hog deer. That and Snowcock in the mountains
Fast pronunciation lesson, the 2nd. 🙂 The new rifle is the Gandhare and it is in English spoken like: Gun-dahre. So, the hyphenation isn't between the d and h, but between n and d. 🙂 Cheers!
@@Flintergaming Very easy. First part like the english "gun", second part like the animal "Tahr", but with a D in front. So you have "gun dahr" and let it been followed by an short "e", like in "lesson". gun dahre Finished. 🙂
Just got my .470 for that old timey feel when hunting tigers. Would love to see you do a Victorian type loadout with the new gun and .470 and maybe a lever action on this map.
I think they should make the tigers bigger. They are absolutely massive in real life, but when you spotted that one in the grass my first thought was about how small it looked. It looks mtn lion size. They could easily up the size 30-50% and still be realistic. Ok that one that stalked you after the river kill one looked a little bigger to me but still not as big as i think they should be. Maybe up the body size 20-30%
Yeah I imagine that the fact your facing them is why the tigers flee. Irl, people who live in tiger territory often wear masks on the back of their heads to deter an ambush
Hey i have a question i don’t know if you have the answere to this but does anyone know if i can connect my account from steam to the xbox to get all the dlc that i have or do i need to buy them all on xbox aswell?
Fun fact flinter The new rifle is actually in real life the Martini Henry a French made rifle used in the 1st world war and it’s in battlefield 1 and it’s a 1 shot on anyone
I wish this game would raise the maximum view distance. It feels like we are still living in 2015 or 2016 on game release with how short of view distance you can see animals. At least give us the OPTION to turn it on, even if it would lower our framerate a bit lower.
Why the barasingha sound like Tarzan 😭
😂😂
why does the name sound like bazinga from sheldon
Flinter immediately started whispering with the snow leopard shows he’s a real hunter and got exited
Amen. It was amazing!
I'm not even a "sheep guy" but that blue sheep looks incredible.
arent they tho?!
Out of everything I saw so far my first thought was "I want a blue sheep in the lodge immediately".
With all of the new animals in thinking about new mounts and I think it would be so cool if they would make "props" for the larger mount plots. Like say you take that snow leopard and put it on the largest floor mount there is but there was like rocks or something to fill the empty space or some "fallen trees" that they could be standing on our something like that.

All I can hope for is when they inevitably kill him I PRAY he says clever girlll
LOL 🤣 That’s awesome, I’ll remember that too. And yup they do indeed do that with masks, pretty cool way to live alongside tigers
oh dang, that is very smart. Do they hunt tigers in India still, or are they endangered there?
@@casedistorted They’re very endangered. That’s why it’s so cool to hunt them in game. India is completely closed to hunting, and I think Nepal is mostly restricted or completely closed to hunting all animals as well.

Clicked faster then i was born
Same, also did the doctor need a baseball mitt?
Same😂
Ah so much sense
Must be a crazy birth video
Same
The new gun not being class 9 is insane. The round if fires is very similar to 45-70 which is class 9 on cotw
Think of it not the size but the speed and size. It’s an EXTREMELY. Slow round
That and also from a general balance perspective it makes way more sense.
Compared to all the other single shot rifles like the 7mm, the Hudzik, and the Curman, you get much less effective range due to lack of scope, and in the case of speed and class range it’s beat out by the 7mm.

It’s the martini Henry which is a black powder rifle
@mountainstateoutdoors7099 yeah and 45-70 was originally black powder and cannot be loaded any more powerful
by far my favorite part of this new map is just seeing the new models and the insane improvement overall on COTW's animals! ever since getting this game i have never been disappointed by an update.

Wow! Blue sheep, barasingha & wild yak the stars of the map. Can't wait to hunt snow leopards. Only downer is that tigers have a drink zone.
god, that blood splatter was bigger than the entire muntjac! at 18:33
Tigers having a drink zone is a little disappointing. I was really hoping they would become the most difficult trophy to find in the game.
they dont really seem as dangerous as they were made out to be either
I'm not bothered. This is good info if you want to look for them.
Yeah the Tiger hype was way off, really bummed they not more dangerous and hard to hunt, drinkzones? Really😢
@@warhub7035 And the fact that they actually make footsteps sounds in the direction they are coming from, and it seems like they're not attacking until they're 5 meters away. and you can just spot them through all that grass.. :S

The SA 10ga is going to be my tiger gun!
Real
I'm considering the 454. The shotgun is probably the better option but there's something satisfying about taking a large animal with a small weapon
Im from England not a gun country been playing this since release so got all weapons etc, so what's the most powerful or best shotgun? I always use the Cacc because back then it took months to unlock and buy.
Is the 10g better? I don't do birds but rabbits are cool but i mainly do big game so looking forward to this map👍
The landscape is beautiful. I haven't played thehunter in a hot minute but this maps got my attention for sure
Absolutely fantastic
Expansive Worlds did an EPIC job with this map

All is absolutely stunning. This is a 10/10
The Martini Henri is such a iconic rifle. It was very precise for its time and packed a big punch. The top breach makes a very cool noise when being cycled
I thought Tigers didn't have drink zones?
That was a guess. Tahr don't have drink zones.
I know snow leopards don’t have a drink zone. I was surprised tigers did drink as well

Heard that rumble and got super excited lol
Been waitin for this and Daniel all day
I didn’t get a notification for this video dropping, it queued itself and when it started I wasn’t watching just listening. When I looked over and saw the yak and heard you say it I got goosebumps.
Great video! Awesome to see everything that is coming on the 18th of June! HYPE!
I absolutely LOVE the snow leopards! Definitely gonna grind those for a diamond!
Finally! This is probably the map i have been looking forward the most to ever since i started playing.
What an incredible DLC, I’m in Nepal now and I feel like I need to get this, great video Flantro!
This map looks so special. I am beyond excited to hunt this map. I already knew Tahr Grind was gonna be difficult. But seeing how far down the mountains they are feeding makes it seem that much harder.
Here. We. GOO!!!😍
That’s so cool that the tiger flees when u spot cause I I think that what happens is real life u spot before it attacks u
it would be cool if they gave the new rifle a scope and made it gun that can kill class 4-9 otherwise i feel like it might not get to much attention like the muskets
i've been really good about avoiding tiger attacks, but last time i played i was sneaking up on a lake for buffs and stepped away to grab a drink and right when i came back i got nurffed by a random tiger, i thought well shit, guess i gotta run back over here again, so i did, and i saw its tracks as i went, going towards where i came from so i figured well its must be long gone and spooked by now, got back to right past where i was and i heard an aggressive growl and it suddenly got me from behind out of nowhere, no time to even aim my gun. no warning growls, no anything, damn dog didn't even alert me it was near by or aggressive i had no idea. first time a tiger got me and it got me twice x"D

Thanks for the early content flinter! Can't wait to get this myself!
I gotta say the amount of big game on this map has me super interested. We haven't had a map like this since SRP
Great video flint. I'm super excited for this one.
Awesome hunt! And I don’t know how you saw that 7 tiger I would have been dead within seconds😂
where does he get those binoculars that have the green cross and show how far animals are?
How do you flip up the sight on the new gun? On both console and PC? Please and thank you

It makes sense that they would flee when they notice you notice them, because they surprise attack from behind irl. They dont like being noticed
Wow the intro is the one thing I am exited for that’s crazy
Tigers having drink zones kinda takes away the aspect of *extremely difficult trophy to hunt* lol
I do agree there. We'll hunt them some on stream today with the drink zones tho! You'll see (if you can stop by) that its not TOO predictable, but I do kinda hope they take them away
I wonder if sambar could be backfilled to sundarpatan in the future.
That big gold tahr is a pretty good reference for how massive the g1 tahr is.
Man every thing looks soooo good
This map has me so hyped
I didn’t even know about this new map before you posted it. It’s going to be great! I’m definitely going to be getting it when it releases
Honestly would've loved if they made it so you couldn't spot the tiger once it was in its sneaking/stalking mode to make it more terrifying. Besides that, this map looks amazing! Gonna be insane!
Great Video hope you play missions when the map actually comes out. I enjoy watching the story missions
That’s the plan! I usually wait a week or two because I don’t want to spoil it for some people that wanna do missions themselves. 😄
Taking a break from this game for a bit but god I’m so excited to get back into now especially with this new map!!
Flinter while literally being stalked by a tiger : 😃
Me, the *second* I heard a growl : 😨
Man I'm so hyped for this map
What is the best loudout for sunderpatan
So glad the Yaks go up to 9!
How do you jump around and still get animals? If I jump once I won't see anything for an hour
So if you can hunt tiger and snow leopard then why don’t we have zebras, elephants and giraffes in Africa? 😢
I’m still surprised that they didn’t add hyenas and leopards, in addition to the animals you listed
@@DustyDawnAdventures yes! How awesome would that be??!!
Lets go its so close to us being able to play this i am so excited

Am I the only one who's disappointed about how the tigers slow walk at you, I mean "stalk" you out in the open?

I cant wait for the map to come out❤
When ya going to drop some more way of the hunter videos
24:40 that animation was crazy😂

Is it just me or do the Barasinga look like a reworked axis deer
This map has me so excited! Glad the yaks go to 9!
I had a level 9 yak that trolled in the same spot you found yours.
What guns r u using
You know seeing this map now makes me glad they spent the extra time working on the map because this might end up being my favorite map from now on.
Finally I have been waiting for this all day, can't wait to play it.

Hey i have a question i don’t know if you have the answere to this but does anyone know if i can connect my account from steam to the xbox to get all the dlc that i have or do i need to buy them all on xbox aswell?
I don’t think they connect sadly
I'm gonna spend wayy too much time hunting those barasingha lol
Yak and Blue sheep gotta be my 2 favorite
That 4 muntjac was diamond potential
Fun fact flinter

The martini Henry is such a good edition to the game
Someone is obviously excited for the new map 😂 two vids back to back
Got 2 vids everyday until Tuesday 😂
@Flintergaming can't blame ya man, I would be posting the crap out of the game too 🤣
Alright now bring on the stream! Great video as usual flantro 🤘🎉
Can’t wait to play this map
FIRE MAP, that Yak was just mean lol
I couldnt believe that... legit the estimate and everything xD
37:44 is that an albino woolly hare
Bro. This posted 12 minutes ago this feels right. SO PUMPED!!!
Daniel.
When you call in to spread kindness to everyone else, know that we're all hoping that YOU are having a good day. 😊
The map looks great!
so whats the reason behind them hunting multiple endangered (or criticaly threatened) species
Finally caught a video as it comes out.
I literally cant even!!! I CANT WAIT UNTIL TUESDAY!!! Im so glad you got ea 😂 Awesome video man!!!!
Swifties: Its been a long time coming 😂
I wish this game would raise the maximum view distance. It feels like we are still living in 2015 or 2016 on game release with how short of view distance you can see animals. At least give us the OPTION to turn it on, even if it would lower our framerate a bit lower.
how can we get early access too
