Will there be mod support?

[Sic]

Being that the game is developed by Avalanche, and that they've had a positive attitude towards modding in the past, not to mention that the game uses the same engine as the Just Cause games: will theHunter: Call of the Wild have mod support?

[jeff1963]

Are those multiplayer titles? Will there be competition, and trophies? I doubt they would allow mod's if either of these are true.

Hello

At this point there is nothing in the direction of modding support planned. In case this should change we will make sure to let the Community know. It certainly is an interesting idea in my personal opinion as a gamer.

Cheers,

Stefan

modding if catered for right can bring massive sales to games. often the main reason for titles not doing is is possible conflicts with dlc or other issues.

i can think of many mods that could suit the terrain / game type.which would prove very popular. no one can for eg make a decent open world zombie game. this terrain open world add in mp and a building system similar to rust and zombies you would have a smash hit.no one can seem to pull it off.yet it is one of the most wanted types of games on the planet.

fishing mod on this reserve /area.no need to explain.could be massive.only really fishing planet as a rival . which suffers from being a pure grind.make it fun it would be a big hit.

just a couple of ideas.

Being that MP is already in, this could be a ridiculously good base for MP mods.

It really should be encouraged.

[dgeesio & ronMctube]

i think the only issue with mp mods is maybe the 8 player limit.not sure but i thought there was a technical reason why 8 man was the limit.similar in theHunter classic. some guys did surpass this in just cause 2 mp. they ended up gettting thousands on a server. sure some or one of them got took on at avalanche.

true sic some mods could be amazing. especially with the topography in this game.

I'm all for mod support but I think it might be an issue in a game that has competitions such as this. I'm sure it could be done but seems like it would be a lot of work. One way to avoid some issues would be to only allow mods in singleplayer but that would ruin half the fun of having mods.

i usually like mods for games but this one I'm not really sure it would be any good. Maybe a ton of sweetFX mods and cheats but I wouldn't get those anyway. Now adding Bigfoot... Ya I'm all in for that lol, and a emote where you go hoooooowah and say " looking mighty squatchy around here"
But seriously a fishing DLC would be so cool with different fish and trophy catches. To me doesn't even need to be a full on feature just a decent mini game.

[PicSoul]

Maybe.... he's already in the game.

I would love to have a bicycle! I am not focus on killing digital animals, but driving around in the beauty of a landscape would be awsome.

[QuarterSquats]

Mods would be a great addition to this game, imagine hunting bigfoot on this map?!

[☠djb204☠]

Even simple reskins would enhance the game. Grizzly bears would be a cool reskin for the Black bear. Caribou skin over elk mesh. The sound bits would need to be changed too.

[QuarterSquats]

Yeah that would be a nice touch indeed, modding would open up so many possibilities

[76561198349709834]

I personally would also love to see mods for the game but as I wrote a few months back, this won't happen anytime soon. The reason is that the engine and everything would need to be re-worked and made accessible for people to work with that and that is a really large amount of work. And currently, we don't have the staff and time to realize this as we're working full steam ahead on new content and patches. But who knows, maybe at some point in the future. :-)

[Mr.TopKing]

you add mods i buy your game

[QuarterSquats]

Understandable! Appreciate the explanation and I love to see that you also want to see modding for the game, makes me really hopeful for the future of this game!
