Ptarmigan Competitions Are Here!

Big thanks to Andhii for helping us put together this exciting bundle of Ptarmigan competitions. The first of these new competitions will go live today; and then continue to be rolled out, one every other day, over the next week. In conjunction with this we’ll also have all Ptarmigan types as our free species this week.

Status Update - 5th December 2018

theHunter Classic - TreeKiwi

Hello Hunters,

How is everyone this week? What a difference one week of practice has made to my shooting. I have found a nice reliable anchor point, and I am now just working on getting my bow sighted in properly... nearly ready to go after some animals I think, more on that later!

This weeks video is slightly different, ever wondered how to make your own European skull mount? Here, Dirk “The Bugler’ shows us how! Remember this shows real footage, so if you prefer to keep your fix virtual, DO NOT CLICK Here.

The Holiday Event 2018

As I am sure most of you have seen, our annual Holiday Event is now underway. This year’s event we have 11 missions and 10 competitions, that alternate every other day.

Missions can be completed up until the 21st of December, but like previously mentioned a new one is added to the pack every two days.
If you are a Mission guru, you should like this years missions. They feature characters from older mission packs and have some great little stories to go along with them. Each mission you complete will gift you 20,000 Present$, completing all 11 will give you a total of 220,000 Present$, more about the Present$ Points later!

The Competitions are centered around the same theme as the Mission that came the day before it, but generally much more challenging. Each Competition runs for 48 hours, finishing just as the new one starts!
Prizes for the competitions look like this:

1st Place: 300 em$ and a Trophy
2nd Place: 200em$ and a Trophy
3rd Place: 100em$ and a Trophy
4th-10th Place: 50em$ and a Trophy

Completing a competition will also award the hunter 20,000 Present$ points.

The Holiday Event

This year Santa has dropped Presents all over the EHR and if you find them, you can pick them up to collect Present$! The more Present$ you collect, the more in game prizes you are rewarded. This is how the prize pool looks:

1st Place:Trophy + 12 mo Membership + Elite Scout Gun
2nd Place: Trophy + 6 mo Membership + Elite Scout Gun
3rd Place: Trophy + 3 mo Membership + Elite Scout Gun
4th - 10th Place: Hunting Tower (Bare Wood) + 700 em$ + Trophy
800 000 Present$: Legendary Holiday Gift Bundle + Trophy
500 000 Present$: Epic Holiday Gift Bundle + Trophy
300 000 Present$: Brilliant Holiday Gift Bundle + Trophy
225 000 Present$: Trophy + 50 Camping Supplies
150 000 Present$: Trophy + 50 Scent Eliminator
75 000 Present$: Trophy

It is worth noting that the Elite Scout, is the ‘Premium’ version of the Scout that everyone has been voting on and different to the variation that will initially be for sale.

If you want the bundles but collecting Present$ are not your thing:
The Brilliant Bundle can be purchased and viewed here in the store.
The Epic Bundle can be purchased and viewed here in the store.

Santa Hat

Santa Beard

Or a 8x57 IS Anschütz 1780 D FL(Holidays 2018 Edition)

There are Daily sales and a Doc’s Shed Extravaganza, where the doors to the shed are open and hand picked items will be purchasable for the whole of December. Just to clarify, sales continue until the 31st of December!

Park Ranger Photo Competition

So, would you like the chance to win this rare Park Ranger variation?

All we want from you, is a nice screen shot of the Park Ranger, posed as if it were in a car advertisement! Post it into our forum, in this thread here.

Photos cannot be altered using any editing software, but feel free to add any text that you think might help to ‘sell it’. Three of these variations can be won, competition closes Monday the 10th of December, 9am CET and the winners will be selected shortly after that.

Calibre Competition

We had 174 hunters enter the competition for this rifle, but only three can win!
It gives me great pleasure to announce CalHunter, Uhtredson and Gravenslund as the winners! You have until Friday to send me a message in the forum, so I can get you sorted. If a prize is not claimed I will run the random number generator again, so make sure you guys get in touch with me!

Christmas Break

As of next Tuesday, I will be on Dad leave for 6 weeks, we are traveling down to New Zealand for Christmas, so all my family can meet our new arrival. I am looking forward to some good quality family time! Hopefully I will manage to get some fishing and hunting in there as well, if I have any luck I will add the pictures to Discord and The Great Outdoors thread in the forums. Until I return, Graham will be the man to go to until I get back.

Closer to Christmas, staff will be taking some days off, however, as per usual, there will always be someone here to keep the ship on course. If you do have any issues, your best bet is still to either send an email to support@thehunter.com or check the forums.

Thanks for a fantastic year everyone, and I wish you and all your family's the best, whatever this time of the year means to you!

See you next year!

Status Update - 28th November 2018

theHunter Classic - TreeKiwi

Hello Hunters,

The temperatures have plummeted here now, and that rain that I talked about a few weeks back, has turned to a light sprinkling of snow. I have been practicing as much as I can with my new bow and starting to feel smoother, more comfortable and starting to get better groupings. This was one of the three targets I was shooting at last night and about ⅓ the way through, I decided to just focus this one, so I could better see where my groupings were going, this was at 20yards/18m. One of the instructors thinks I should get a longer stabiliser, as I just have the small factory one on it.

I am still watching ‘The Land of the Free” series, after last week’s video I will try and keep them a little less controversial. I was trying to show that it depends on what you are using and how you use it. Any weapon used correctly can be ethical and any weapon not used properly can be unethical! This weeks video is a bit of an eye opener… shooting ducks mid air with a bow, i’ll let the video do the talking, enjoy! Remember this shows real hunting footage, so if you prefer to keep your hunting fix virtual, DO NOT CLICK Here.

The ‘Park Ranger’

Today, after nearly 10 years of theHunter: Classic, we introduce the first form of motorised transport the ‘Park Ranger’!
So, what do you need to know?

The Park Ranger comes in three different colour variations, which can either be purchased in a bundle or separately. We do have one more skin that we have decided to make a little more exclusive, ‘The Stallion’. This can be acquired by either winning competitions where it is offered as a prize, or purchasing a 6 month membership license.

For one week only, as a special release offer, you can obtain one of ‘The Stallion’ Park Ranger variations by purchasing a 6 month membership. This offer runs up to and including Wednesday the 5th of December.

The Park Ranger needs fuel to run, but if you are a member, you get 50 units of fuel free each time you start a hunt. If you do not have a membership, or want to drive for extended periods of time, you can purchase fuel in the store.

It can not be damaged or get flat tires. If you have a little disagreement with gravity while driving it, or submerge it under water, you will be injured and forced to fast travel back to a tent or lodge.

If you press ‘J’ you can access the Vehicle Menu which will give you three options. ‘Tow Vehicle’, ‘Locate Vehicle’ and ‘Lock Passenger Seat’. If you manage to get it stuck you can use the ‘Tow Vehicle’ option, it gets returned to your backpack and can be re-deployed on a nearby road. If you can not remember where you left your vehicle, you can use the ‘Locate Vehicle’ function, which will make the Park Rangers horn sound, this will not spook any animals. The final option ‘Lock Passenger Seat’, is used to keep unwanted players from getting in your vehicle.

This leads us nicely into how they work in multiplayer. As the host of a multiplayer game, you can select if you want them in your map or not. This is done in the options when creating the game. There is a limit of two Park Rangers in any multiplayer game.

If you spook an animal while driving, you will need to wait until it has calmed down before shooting it, any animals shot while spooked from the Park Ranger will be registered as an unethical harvest and you will get a letter from Doc. When spotting an animal, if it is still spooked from the vehicle, you will get notified at the bottom of the spotting information. Pressing ‘H’ while driving will honk the horn and this WILL spook animals.

The Park Ranger will not be able to be used if you have a competition activated.

Park Ranger Photo Competition

Well the voting has ended and with over twice as many votes as any other calibre, the new rifle is going to be chambered in 7mm-08!

We have some more news as well, this rifle will be released with two different ammo loads and you can expect a wider ethical list.

Holiday Event 2018

Tomorrow our 2018 Holiday Event starts, more details will be released in our forums tomorrow, so make sure you head over to check it all out!

Rare and Trophy of the Week

These Weekly competitions are super popular. The Trophy of the Week gets selected on Monday’s and Rare of the Week gets selected on Wednesday’s.
So, if you have shot a rare or high scoring animal from this week and want a chance to win, then share them in the correct thread on our forum, don’t forget to mention the score!

This Week's Winners

The ‘Trophy of the Week’ is this HUGE Rocky Mountain Elk! It was shot by ‘Rosete’ and scored a massive 427.795! Look at the size of those tines! If you are not sure what many consider a trophy Rocky Mountain Elk, it is any that score over the 380 mark!

The ‘Rare of the Week’ goes to ‘Gostwind’ for this Leucistic Rocky Mountain Elk, it made the Super Rare Gallery with a score of 374.33, congratulations! A very nice Trophy!

Free Rotation

This week Blacktail Deer and Black Bear are free to hunt, Red Feather Falls is going to be busy, good luck!

theHunter Classic - TreeKiwi

Hello Hunters,

Well, we shot three Roe Deer in the weekend amongst the hunting team, however all I saw, was birds! It was such a nice day out and great to be out in the wilderness, so I am far from complaining! Here is my viewpoint, from the first location:

This week I am still deep into ‘The Land of the Free” series, but I did get funneled to this video which I found interesting. Hunting Black Bears with spears, after watching it and when a spear is used like this, there is no question in my mind that they are ethical. I guess it’s like any weapon though, you have to use them correctly! Remember this shows real hunting footage, so if you prefer to keep your hunting fix virtual, DO NOT CLICK Here.

Thanksgiving 2018

Thanksgiving 2018 is underway! This year we have tiered Turkey competitions and a nice Mission pack.

The competition is "Turkey Overload" and the average score of your five top scoring Turkeys is your competition entry!

Each tier awards the top 10 players, so there is a good chance at getting some prizes.

All week long, there is also 2x XP for all animal tracking and spotting, so if hunting Turkeys is not your thing, you still benefit!

The event wraps up 0300 CET, Monday the 26th of November, so make sure you don’t miss out!

Calibre Competition (Skip if you read last week)

SOME SUPER IMPORTANT INFORMATION, PLEASE READ!!!!!
So originally we had 4 options to vote from, and one of them was the 7mm, which would have been the same 7mm ammo that is in game at the moment. However, the 7mm option was removed and replaced with a 7mm-08 round, which IS NOT THE SAME as the 7mm round that is in game currently. We have reset the poll, to make sure the votes are still accurate and we have also left the poll open, which means you can change your vote. The 7mm-08 round, would be completely new in game and have a different ethical species list, compared to the 7mm. The list is not finalised yet, but if it is the winning calibre, it will either have a light grain round and be ethical from Fox to Red Deer (maybe Rocky Mountain Elk, but not Roosevelt, due to the size difference). Or if it has a heavier grain bullet, it would be ethical from Coyote to Elk.

Now if you are wondering what all this is about, In December we have our next ‘Advanced Firearm’ coming out, ‘The Scout’. This rifle will feature a folding bipod that is built into the front of the stock and deploys when the player goes prone. While prone it will provide extra stability, but to balance that out and add to the realism, the side to side movement will be a little more restricted.

So what is the competition and why are we mentioning this rifle so early if it is not due out till December? We want you as the community to select which calibre it should come out in, to vote, head over to our forums and select one of 4 options. If you leave a comment with a brief description as to why you picked the calibre, that will enter you into the draw to win one of three ‘Scouts’, when they do get released! Pretty sweet deal right?

Vehicle Reveal

Make sure you join myself and Graham tomorrow on stream, as we will be turning the key on the new Vehicle! www.twitch.com/expansiveworlds 4pm CET!

This Week's Winners

The ‘Trophy of the Week’ is this HUGE Brown Bear! It was shot by ‘Dilaj’ and scored 28.858! Great use of camera angles and hunter position, to really make this look big! If you are not sure what many consider a trophy Brown Bear, it is any that score over the 27 mark!

The ‘Rare of the Week’ goes to ‘Oskar4358’ for this Bald Leucistic Canada Goose, congratulations! A very nice Trophy shot.

Hello Hunters,

I hope everyone is having a good week, all going to plan my week is going to get even better. This Saturday I am getting out for a hunt here in Sweden and then on Sunday, both Graham and I have our archery safety introduction at the local archery club. Which means (touch wood), we will have somewhere local to let arrows fly whenever we want. Now, I am still watching the ‘Land of the Free’ series that I linked last week, as they have just started their second season and a new episode comes out every day. Their videos are awesome and if you are a US resident, they have some amazing prizes to be won, so get amongst it! But, if perhaps they are not your cuppa tea, today’s video suggestions are the ‘Hushin crew’. They are also making some good videos and worth a watch. I have to say thanks to user ‘thewindow’ for the suggestion. Remember these show real hunting footage, so if you prefer to keep your hunting fix virtual, DO NOT CLICK Here.

Crossbow Pistol

Today we have released the Crossbow Pistol and you can now pick it up in the store. This lightweight Crossbow can be carried in your ‘Small Weapon Holster’ and is perfect for small game. There is also a red dot scope that is available for it and it makes aiming a lot easier. The scope can be found here and the Crossbow Pistol can be found here, enjoy! As is traditional when we release a new weapon, there is a competition to go along side it; so make sure you sign up and test your skill!

Hello Hunters,

The daylight hours here in Sweden are rapidly dwindling by the day. The mist, rain and clouds are settling in for the impending Winter, which will see them convert into hail, sleet and then snow. But as many know, this is a good time to be out in the wilderness as many huntable species are more active and vocal. This weeks video is actually the start of a series that was suggested to me by community member ‘DaveyCockett’ and I am really enjoying it so far! Remember these show real hunting footage, so if you prefer to keep your hunting fix virtual, DO NOT CLICK Here.

Halloween 2018

Calibre Competition

In December we have our next ‘Advanced Firearm’ coming out, ‘The Scout’. This rifle will feature a folding bipod that is built into the front of the stock and deploys when the player goes prone.

Water Buffalo Missions

Today, Water Buffalo missions have gone live and everyone can try their luck! The pack offers a good challenge and Water Buffalo being Water Buffalo, I am sure there will be some laughs… especially if you are not the one getting run over!

November, Means Movember!

Wowsa… it’s November already! If you have played the game for awhile, you will know that this is the month, when the Mustaches become purchasable! So if you missed out last year, or perhaps you feel like wearing a new style this year, just head to our store page and pick one up! It is worth noting that a few years ago we donated some of the profits to a charity, this year this will not happen.

Next Week's Stream

Unfortunately next week (15th Nov), we have a company wide meeting and to line it up with the New York office’s timezone, it runs through our scheduled streaming time. It is a compulsory meeting and we will not be able to put a show on!

I guess I should try work out an extra special one, for the following Thursday!
