Invisible Radio?
I am loving this game, such a great story, beautiful graphics so imagine my annoyance when on day 76 (I think, it is the day when you are to go to Wapati Meadow), I am supposed to find a radio near the lake Jonesy. I discovered this as I arrived by the lake and I could hear a radio, similar to the last time when I got hit in head after finding notes about me and DElilah. I wondered around for a lonbg time, a longggg time, and finally went to a walkthough. It has a picture of where the radio is. My game has the rocks, the exact spot, and the noise of the radio, and it saves when I walk up, but there is no radio? PLEASE can anyone help? I worked hard to be able to play this game (had to install and different graphics driver) so playing it is really cool. If this is simply my being an idiot, let me know so I dont waste anymore time. I want to know the story!! THanks for listening to my rant :/ and hopefully pointing me in the righht direction!

Out of curiosity, do you get any sort of Pick Up Radio indication when you wave the cursor around the spot where the radio is supposed to be? Invisible it may be, but that doesn't mean you can't pick it up. You said you can hear it, right?

AH! I will try that. Yes, I can hear it and everything else is all normal. The game is so good! I would even go back and play the beginning again if this breaks the rest of the game! Thanks for the idea and I will let you know if it works.

Well, curiouser and curiouser. I went up the hill right before I saved yesterday and when I went back to where Jonesy lake is today, there was no longer any radio sound!? I then went ahead and made it to Wapati meadow and found I can't break into gate and was told by Delilah to go find the fire guys to help me. Was I supposed to find another radio? Maybe a glitch in the sound? I thought I read the walkthrough right and what it said is I would find the radio and get hit earlier but then later I again find a radio after which I am supposed to explore Wapati meadow? Maybe I played different than the walkthrough writer person did and there is only one radio incident? And that is where I am at, very confused. Maybe I shouldnt have read the walkthrough, SIGHGHGG. So, is there two radio events where one finds two lost radios or is there only one?? Thank you for the help :)

You can edit your original post, if you so desire. Just click on the pencil icon in the upper right.

The second radio is the one you pick up from a cache box when Delilah tells you to.

The Red radio is the one you are missing. After being knocked out, you ask Delilah about Wapiti Station and she tells you to go there while you complain about your head. From there the game proceeds as you have described: she tells you to go to the fire camp for help. It apparently is not a game breaker if you don't have the radio - when you are knocked out, the radio is taken from you anyway. It is weird you couldn't find it though.

The second radio is at Cottonwood Creek. Delilah will lead you to it.

OHHHHH! So that walkthrough....apparently this game is so good and openworld that one person's trajectory in the game is not the same at all when compared to another person's trajectory of the game. For example, I got the first red radio when I got knocked out at a very different time than the writer of the walkthrough. I think the sound I heard was just a little glitch as it is gone now. If you are the developer, this game, the graphics, the story, everything is wonderful!! Thank you and please, please make more! So sick of the same old thing. This is so much like hiking in Wyoming or Boulder that it is bringing back my own childhood memories of treking around the back country. Excellent game!
