I cant wait to play this map. Calling in Springbok is hillarious though - I've hunted plenty of times in africa and you dont call any animals (other than some predators).
Could you describe one of your hunts in Africa? I'm very curious to what it was like, a friend of mine is from the Yukon and has hunt Beluga whales before and that was insane story.
@@chasecharland1160 lol well im not kidding I lived there for decades and have hunted on many many farms across the western, eastern and limpopo provinces. I've hunted Kudu, Waterbuck, Springbok, Vaal Rhebok, Steenbok, Duiker, Rooibok (Impala), Wildebeest etc etc. and a few jackal hunts at night. You do NOT call any plains game - I can state that with 100% certainty/
33:22 I'm not sure how accurate this game is, but in real life, female hyenas are bigger than males, which might explain why it was a female that responded to the call.
a 300 dropping a buffalo isn't very realistic my dad is a PH and he uses .458 as backup for the hunter and dropping a buffalo with anything lighter than a 375 isn't likely
I’m excited for this map my brother was playing on my account on way of the hunter and he shot a melanistic Mule deer I’ve also shot a few cool rates but Africa definitely gonna be my favorite map looks awesome
Whitetail deer only live about 7 to 10 years. Seems like the Kudu is roughly the same. Id like to see the peep sight colors on the bow string where you can change them if ya want. Maybe also where it would be zoomed in a bit more for people with poor vision. Cool vid man. Thanks for that. Looks like they have made a spectacular DLC. Cant wait.
Great video However I think they have got the hyenas all wrong the females should also be scored in the game not just the males unless I mistook it Among spotted hyenas, females dominate over males in a group. Previously thought due to their size and weight however, males are more likely to leave the clans and join others as they are bottom of the pecking order
Am so excited for this, have been waiting since essentially launch to get back into the game. Now that bows are here im so for it, now just hope they eventually add "traditional bows"
which do you enjoy more, cotW of wotH, not considering that you have obviously already played cotw so much more. Looking to get back into these games after a while and wondering if i should buy woth or just more maps and stuff to cotw? Thanks in advance
Wow!!! what a map! and DLC. Graphics are stunning!! I will be playing as the DLC drops. Cant wait. Great video. I think I am done with COTW.. after this map.
I’m pretty sure the alien reference is a Destroy All Humans easter egg sort of thing. I kind of got that idea when he said “alien overlord” that’s what the entire game was based around 😅
Seems like this map could use some more species, missing a lot of cool animals that could have differentiated themselves from cotw rather than just copying the animal list over
I really wish that we could get realistic trophy mounts with more scenery and detail in the mounts in CoTW kinda like these and maybe more multi mounts with more detail
Hopefully this map comes with an update to allow my kids to play dlc maps. The developers sent me an email months ago saying they were fixing it but they haven't. If they can't fix that I probably won't buy more maps
I think the Alien is a Destroy All Humans! reference. That game was published by THQ Nordic and the Alien model looks almost identical to the PC in the DAH game.
Glad you got a chance to show off the new map. I haven't stepped foot in COTW since "Way" came out. Nor have I watched videos of COTW, so I've missed a lot of yours and DD33's videos. I'm a real hunter (like yourself) and I will go with the most realistic hunting experience. Amazing models. And glad they added "story" mode. I'm hoping that means I won't be coaxed into climbing a mountain only to pick flowers. Always hated them deciding what my character would be. I'm glad they fixed that, because "I'm" the hunter, I don't have sex change operation every time I switch maps. I'm super glad though that they have female characters, so the ladies don't have to play a dude. I mean, I would have been perfectly fine playing a female character, but not switching it up. So, they're giving me everything I want in a hunting game, finally. Can't wait to hit this map. Always good brother.
I’m really hoping they will add a sharps rifle and muzzle loader to the game. I think the animators for this game would get the models and animations for those guns perfect
this game is awesome but i dont like insta kill shots like in 6:17 i believe that neither the .50 bmg could insta kill a buffalo without spine ou neck bone shot
The environment/landscape looks amazing, and the animations are excellent. I have to confess, the manes on the male lions look pretty bad in the game, though the trophy lodge one looks good.
I think the really big game drops too fast, but ive never hunted it irl so idk but deer shrug off good 30.06 shots and run 100m so a buffalo can eat 300 winmag maybe? xd
I been playing on the ps5 and i ran into acouple bugs i killed and animal and it disappeared when i went to were i kill it then i shot a animal it dropped then hopped up and start running
@Flinter, do you think Way of the Hunter should give you the option to reload your own ammo with custom bullets and gunpowder. If you do, do you think they might add it?
Btw, stream at 10am!!
Cant wait to drop in!
What times that in Perth, Australia?
Never thought I’d see Destroy All Humans references in my hunting game, but I dig it 😂😂
As a South-African, they are spot on with the animals!!! 1or 2 tweeks here and there, but it is amazing!
I'm so stoked you shared your first hunt before the release date. I thank you for that :)
I'm excited for the new map, but I'm really excited for the bow. The game works so well for still hunting. Now we just need tree stands
tree stands ASAP
Or tripods like cotw would be nice
@@Justfaded420 those would be even better
There coming

@@chasecharland1160how was your friend able to hunt beluga whales? They are protected. Or was this a pre 2005 hunt?

@@technoviking4131 that's awesome, I'd love to go hunting in Africa.
@@chasecharland1160 remember it's real then... you will be hunted as well 😆 🤣 😂
I’m glad to see Greater Kudu are in the map at launch! Was a bit worried they didn’t make the cut when they weren’t in the wildlife trailer
The alien references are to the game "Destroy All Humans" that THQ Nordic Published back in 2020. I hope we go on an alien hunt as part of the story.
Long live Crypto
That’s a remaster… destroy all humans is a much much much older game than that
@@NyteStalker89 yeah like 05?
@@malloryjordan6764 Lord Cryptosporidium For you Human d:
Thq didn't publish the og iirc
I realy like those animations around the weapons in Way of the hunter.
This map looks sick! im from SA and the animals and SOUNDS are great. Very excited for this!
Loving my time on this map so far so I'll be checking all these vids to see if it benebutted you to take out the one stars (2:30)
Biggest issue so far for me is the lack of a big bore rifle and how wimpy the cape buffalo seem.
i dont really play this game anymore but i am really impressed with this map
33:22 I'm not sure how accurate this game is, but in real life, female hyenas are bigger than males, which might explain why it was a female that responded to the call.
a 300 dropping a buffalo isn't very realistic my dad is a PH and he uses .458 as backup for the hunter and dropping a buffalo with anything lighter than a 375 isn't likely
its definitely not realistic. I dont mind being able to drop animals in a game, but I do want my beefalo to run a little xD
In some countries the 375 is even the legal minimum. It would've been great to get a 416 or 470 for capes.
Why do your commenters complain so much? 😊
Some regions 9,3 is minimum for buffalo,other have energy requirements so .338 Win is one option for that.
Great content thanks mate. Can’t wait to download the map and play it.
This will be the thing that gets me back into playing this game!!!
The destroy all humans reference is the alien in the trophy lodge it’s made by the same people
Man that trophy lodge is stunning!
From a South African , Greater Kudu usually live up to about 12 years
Archery hunting is really going to bring me back to this game!
me too
I’m excited for this map my brother was playing on my account on way of the hunter and he shot a melanistic Mule deer I’ve also shot a few cool rates but Africa definitely gonna be my favorite map looks awesome
It was so satisfying to see that first Cape Buffalo drop instantly to a broadside rifle shot
37:00 it's from another game developed by THQ nordic called Destroy All Humans
I was really hoping the buffalo would be the toughest animal in the game
Whitetail deer only live about 7 to 10 years. Seems like the Kudu is roughly the same. Id like to see the peep sight colors on the bow string where you can change them if ya want. Maybe also where it would be zoomed in a bit more for people with poor vision. Cool vid man. Thanks for that. Looks like they have made a spectacular DLC. Cant wait.
Great video
However I think they have got the hyenas all wrong the females should also be scored in the game not just the males unless I mistook it
Among spotted hyenas, females dominate over males in a group. Previously thought due to their size and weight however, males are more likely to leave the clans and join others as they are bottom of the pecking order
Not going to lie, this actually looks fantastic 10/10 THC Nordic💪🏻👍 definitely Gonna be worth it
You know ive been on the fence about getting this game but seeing as they have quality taste in games (destroy all humans) i think i gotta buy it
Hyenas should really be all about the females!
For anyone who for some reason doesn't get it, female Spotted Hyenas tend to be much bigger than males
Looks great. I just hope they give us a lot more stuff to spend money on, it piles up quick
YES YES YES YES YES
Who else seen the bug running behind the hyena 36:20 ???
Damn that Egyptian goose sound was when they fleed was accurate
Way of the hunter is looking pretty good!
Am so excited for this, have been waiting since essentially launch to get back into the game. Now that bows are here im so for it, now just hope they eventually add "traditional bows"
Any new rifles added or is it just the compound bows
This map looks beautiful❤️
Flinter hunting in Tikamoon Plains: “I want to hunt over here and see if I can track down the black wildebeest…- oh, SHINY!” 😂
YES LETS GOOOO FLINTER IM EXCITED FOR STREAMS!!!
I think that alien at 37:01 is from a game called Destroy All Humans
The little alien dude is from Destroy All Humans, a game owned by THQ Nordic. Just an easter egg.
Need to add a 7mm and 7mm prc for long range hunting
This already looks much better than most maps in CotW.
Excited is an understatement
Huge clear areas, low vegetation, small trees, people with low end PCs like me will love This map
Thx for sharing the video, looks awesome.
It's currently a thing where only mature responds to the caller and it's on almost every species. They're working on the issue
which do you enjoy more, cotW of wotH, not considering that you have obviously already played cotw so much more. Looking to get back into these games after a while and wondering if i should buy woth or just more maps and stuff to cotw? Thanks in advance
Kudu are 100% my favorite I don’t know why but they are amazing creatures
Is this a free DLC?
Wow!!! what a map! and DLC. Graphics are stunning!! I will be playing as the DLC drops. Cant wait. Great video. I think I am done with COTW.. after this map.
You know the games good when you get FOMO every minute ur not playing
Also if you bought the premium version do you get the dlc for free or do you have to pay for it?
Yes it's free with elite pack.
I’m pretty sure the alien reference is a Destroy All Humans easter egg sort of thing. I kind of got that idea when he said “alien overlord” that’s what the entire game was based around 😅
I didn’t even know what that was till yesterday! Now I know 😂
Seems like this map could use some more species, missing a lot of cool animals that could have differentiated themselves from cotw rather than just copying the animal list over
Never seen anyone call in animals in Africa before, not sure why that’s a thing
An initial spawn 3 star adult greater kudu is insane man 😍
Man I am so excited for this
Just got off work time to go watch favorite youtuber
is this map a part of season pass or you have to buy separately?
Last map included in the season pass.
@@EpixSt33Lz great, thank you.
I really wish that we could get realistic trophy mounts with more scenery and detail in the mounts in CoTW kinda like these and maybe more multi mounts with more detail
The Alien is Crypto from the Destroy all Humans game series, both games are published by THQ Nordic, just an easter egg I assume
Bow hunting in WotH fixing to be top teir ! The bow sounds great and seems very realistic.
What animals are on it? IF its got good animals I might pick up way of the hunter.
The alien dude I think is a Easter egg to Destroy all humans they are both published by THQ Nordic
The geese almost sound like cicadas lmao
The aliens are Easter eggs for the Destroy all humans game

The alien from destroy all humans 😂😂😂
The geese sound like guinea flows
Hope the springbuck are bigger than in cotw💀
Going to have to see how the goose hunting is with the flu-flu
this game is awesome but i dont like insta kill shots like in 6:17 i believe that neither the .50 bmg could insta kill a buffalo without spine ou neck bone shot
Is this game on console also, id love to be able to play it. Looks like fun
Yes
Need some more love for the Destroy All Humans reference
How would you compare this game to The Hunter: COTW?
The environment/landscape looks amazing, and the animations are excellent. I have to confess, the manes on the male lions look pretty bad in the game, though the trophy lodge one looks good.
FINALLY, normal (greater) kudu
Finally!
You need to up the FoV, its soooo tight in your video
You the best youtuber!
I want to enjoy WOTH but I can’t figure out why my textures are so blurry for whatever reason
I wish they had some of the other animals, like cheetahs, elephants and giraffes! Those last two might be a BIT to big though >.
I think the really big game drops too fast, but ive never hunted it irl so idk but deer shrug off good 30.06 shots and run 100m so a buffalo can eat 300 winmag maybe? xd
I am very very happy.😊
good one flinter
I just realized - you play Way of the Hunter in yards and COTW in meters. I don't have this game. Does it have a setting to convert to meters?
Yes, both games do
My g with the 40 minute video
I been playing on the ps5 and i ran into acouple bugs i killed and animal and it disappeared when i went to were i kill it then i shot a animal it dropped then hopped up and start running
no way they got a crypto statue in the hunting lodge! destroy all humans was my childhood!
Hello hunters! What time will the DLC release? Thanks!
Oh man I’m so excited for this! Flantro thank you for blessing us with this content 😅🙏🔥
Lets goooooooooooooo!🎉🎉🎉🎉
@Flinter, do you think Way of the Hunter should give you the option to reload your own ammo with custom bullets and gunpowder. If you do, do you think they might add it?
And also you should grind for a albino or mela 5star
Would love to see your uploads in 4k
