So, the teaser trailer from EW came out yesterday for a new hunting reserve, and at least one new critter to hunt. Alligators are confirmed to be a new species on a Mississippi map, and I'm as excited as anyone at the prospect of gettin' some gators. I'm also wondering, however, what other animals might we see on this map?
From our existing stable of possible prey, there are a number of animals that could be included in a Mississippi map. Just as we had different biomes in Rancho del Arroyo, I suspect the state of Mississippi will likely be widely represented by having different biomes in the new map as well. In that way, the areas where you can find gators will likely be swampy, and I'm hoping that the water there will mostly be traversable on foot, not unlike much of the muskeg biome in Yukon Valley, for example.
Swamps are very likely not to make up the whole map though. I suspect there will be forest and lake areas where we'll find other animals like whitetail deer and black bears. Those areas could also host other existing animals that are already in game, like Red Fox, Coyote, Wild Boar, Quail, Rabbits, and Turkeys.
Beavers are a nuissance species in Mississippi, and maybe we'll even get an opportunity to shoot the little buggers that keep destroying our tents and tree stands.
New species aside from gators would be nice to see too. Some sizable lakes would be fantastic for what I hope will be the introduction of new bird species. A bunch more waterfowl are possible for Mississippi, and some doves would be really nice too.
Which brings me to what I'm probably MOST excited about. Let me be clear - EW has made NO mention of this, but my hope is that there will be several more bird species introduced in this map so that they can implement...wait for it...another dog breed. That's right, though I've been given no reason to expect it, I'm hoping, with the whole of my heart, that EW uses this opportunity to give us a bird dog! Will it happen? Well, it's a tall order, given how a retrieving breed introduces the nessecity for new mechanics for flushing and/or retrieving, but MAN, how amazing would it be to add to our kennels!
I'm excited, I'm sure most of you are super excited, and though no realease date has been announced, I'm looking forward to seeing what this new reserve will bring to the game.
Thanks for watching, and until I see you again, have some laughs man, have some laughs.
