I think it will be tomorrow, but it won't have bounties - they should be released in about four weeks along with HR6.
-
The event doesn't finish for another two weeks, so I dare say region 18 will be released before then. Also, my guess is that it will be somewhere in the middle east - about time we had an Arabian region.
-
Would like to think it's supposed to be a Jaguar, and it's gonna be in South America somewhere. But it does look more like a Leopard, definitely not a Cheetah.
-
Very good. Haven't been to Africa since region 9, which was my favourite region of all. Looking forward to it. :)
-
No, but I'd imagine we'll see it on Monday or Tuesday.
-
Region 18 should be this coming Thursday, with HR6 four weeks later. And yes, the next set of bounties will probably be released along with HR6.
-
There's one new region every four weeks. Considering how big the game already is, if regions were released any quicker than this then the game would be absolutely huge by now. Also, some people prefer the events, and therefore alternating the release of new regions and new events, one every fortnight, means there's…
-
The weapon you get as a reward is the Barton Dawnbringer bow. You should need this to complete Hidden region 6 when it comes out.
-
There are bird hunts, they're Cotton Pygmy Geese - the smallest waterfowl on Earth.
-
Looks like you might be in luck. Although my guess would be SE Asia...
-
I honestly didn't think they'd ever introduce Crocodiles (or any other reptiles), but couldn't be more happy to be wrong. Haven't been this excited for a new region since Lost Temple. :)
-
Yeah I like them as well, especially trying to do them with a bow. Also, because I'm a little bit OCD, it really bugs me that R16 featured pheasants - if it had featured Bar-headed goose instead (which is reasonable for the Caspian Basin) there would be two standard regions for each type of bird. Oh well...
-
Spurwing Ducks are in regions 5 and 10, and HR2. Normal ducks are in regions 1 and 6, and HR3.
-
There aren't any tigers in HR4, I think he must mean HR3.
-
I'd imagine R17 will actually be two weeks from now, just so you know.
-
Just got it. Two out of three parts released - regions 3 and 14 so far.
-
I assume it's the new presidents day event. Should be available shortly after the winter sentinel event ends, in about an hour.
-
Yeah there are boars in the Forest of Dean, but I can't see the wolf reintroduction going ahead, as much as I would like it to. Do you live in the UK?
-
Certainly wouldn't be any predator hunts though, and it would be the first region not to feature any bovids, unless they included domestic cattle. Then again, glu would probably just put wolves, bears and golden takin in to make it more interesting. ;)
-
In which case I'd quite like to see kangaroos, tapirs, capybara, wild horses, and maybe some non-mammalian animals, eg crocodiles. :) And as I've said above, a British region probably wouldn't be particularly welcome. ;)
-
@todfoxx. Yeah, I've always thought they're one of the nicest looking canids, very charismatic. Also, that encounter's not where your avatar picture came from is it? Or did you get that online? And yeah Tod is still used in Scotland, mostly for male foxes (females being vixens). @casajr. Tbh, living in any big city you're…
-
Somehow I don't think Great Britain would be a great choice for region 17. ;)
-
Yeah there's loads of foxes in London, I've had them making dens in my back garden before. And they're very bold, some will even take food straight from your hand (apparently, I've never tried). But apart from foxes, muntjacs, and badgers we just don't get any animals living anywhere near here. It's quite depressing tbh,…
-
Living in England, there are so few mammal species found here that when one of them turns up on the game it's quite exciting. This is only the fourth or fifth British species on the game, and it's one I've been hoping for for a while. The fallow deer introduced in HR5 is another. :)
-
Some very different animals in HR5. In keeping with the Dracula/Transylvania theme. :)
-
Carpathian mountains run through Romania, including Transylvania, so yeah they just decided to change the name for whatever reason. Maybe because it got leaked?
-
It still looks like it's a very Transylvanian-themed region, so maybe they just changed the name because Transylvania is actually a real, known place so wouldn't necessarily work as a hidden region.
-
Someone obviously got some false information.
-
HR5 is Ruins of Carpathia. IIRC the Carpathia was a British steam ship that had something to do with the Titanic? Maybe a Maritime themed region although that would hardly fit the 'Stay out of the shadows promo...
-
HR2 was in Europe as well. Personally I'd like to see South America, Australia, Eastern USA and Siberia. I don't think we'll ever see crocodiles or anacondas though, it's been all mammals (and birds) so far, can't see that changing.
