Rhinos are coming?

[Selig]

Ok I know I may be overthinking it... But the devs have placed a lot of content clues in the game before, and now they added a golden figurine of a rhino in the new trophy lodge.

What do you guys think?

Didn't believe devs had seen it feasible, but if they put rhinos I'd add to the value of Vurhonga. That map still needs a lot of work to make it feel like a believable African scenario. In that regard, any new animal, especially the most iconic, would do wonders. I hope to see hyenas too (one can dream).

may need a bigger map , be nice to extend the map out and put all them animals that we will never hunt in real life in there , remembering its NOT REAL AT ALL ,sim, game ,xbox , play-station, its not real , but geessh would be hell of good hunting ,may be get killed a lot too :)

any one who would get up set about hunting on a sim prog , well may need a reality check i recon !! just my thinking !

LOLOLOL. You sir are rewarded with 1 internets.

[sneakybass]

I don't know whats worse reading these posts or not getting off my as* to do the real thing. All this game is digital nothing. And to make excuses for rinos lol don't hurt the rinos or your going to hurt sombodys feelings you make me sick..

I know the difference between real life and video games. I know that I'm just shooting lifeless pixels but I still wouldn't want rhinos, elephants etc in this game. Why? Because I feel that it would make the game too ridiculous. I don't want this game to turn into another Cabela game. And all though it's only pixel animals I do think it's always a good thing to spread awareness about some animals vulnerability. That's what I thought the developers were doing good at the start of releasing Vurhonga Savanna. That until everyone started nagging about hunting giraffes, zebras, lions etc.

[ColdConduct]

Why are people taking this so literally? All that person said was that the addition of rhinos may be bad taste. I don't disagree, and they're allowed to have that opinion. Nobody is making the argument that hunting lions or zebras or rhinos is going to encourage people to go do so illegally in real life. The comparisons to murder or stuff like GTA is irrelevant.

Where do y'all draw the line then since it's 'just a game'? Should they add bigfoot and unicorns for us to hunt? Because I don't have the means to hunt a rhino, bigfoot, or dinosaur in real life, the idea of hunting one in a hunting game isn't as appealing to me. It's a simple concept. I'd be willing to bet most of you love Layton Lake because we're Canadians or Americans and the Layton animals are familiar to us. If rhino were free roaming in my state of Kentucky and it was legal to hunt them, they would hit more at home for me and I'd be more excited to hunt them in CotW.

Anyway, that's just my take on the subject. Nobody said 'don't add rhinos because it's immoral and wrong'. I also want to make it clear that I'm not opposed to them adding rhinos if they desire to do so. I don't really care, but again it's not about whether or not video games encourage bad behavior. Sometimes people like certain game or movie genres for their realism and accuracy. I'm not one to want anything and everything added just because it's a video game. I like it feeling realistic.

I disagree. Its ridiculous how we can have games where you murder other players constantly, murder human npcs, execute hostages during bank heist, etc. But we can't kill certain animals in a video game. The chance that someone in the small cotw fanbase would go to Africa to Illegally kill an endangered animal is abismal, next to nothing.

People are far to closed to the idea about killing certain virtual animals and over exaggerating something that isn't an issue. People are worried about people playing the game and then going in real life to kill animals, when we should we worried about the poachers who are trying to do it right now.

Long story short, its a video game. It's supposed to allow us to do things we can't do in real life, so let people kill a Lion or Rhino. As long as they do not hurt any animals in real life.

I agree, there are too many horrible things in games these days, hunting rhinos should be at the bottom of anyone's concern.

Put real hunt on the game.

I think for realism, it's totally supported further with rhinos, hippos, elephants, giraffes, crocodiles, etc. The thing is, seeing the animal at all is what can make theHunter - COTW more realistic. Shooting them is a choice. But, not seeing them at all is kinda bogus.

I think there could be a neat dynamic where shooting a protected animal illegally would come with a penalty (like a hefty fine or something), or there could also be a cheaper pre-purchasable permit for a sanctioned hunt), but...you'd always still be able to get a harvest screen regardless of the legality, mount the animal in the lodge, receive the weapon-perk/skill-leveling benefits, and conquer more achievements (like "Infamous Scumbag Poacher" or "Master of Hunting Ethics").

It seems a bit of a waste in this open, breathing world not to have the ethical choices in front of us like real hunters do. I think any animal at all that the developers decide to put in that indeed fits with the respective geographical locations would always be a good thing. It creates a more immersive experience and a more accurate simulator, none of which ever have to have that feel of Cabella's arcade-y-ness. And further, it can absolutely still preserve that respect of ethical sportsmanship that this game exudes.

I want more bird hunting..partridge hunt with pointer dog.. it d be great if they could simulate that
