Halloween 2023

Howdy Hunters!

Did you hear the distant howling of a crazed man-wolf? No? Head over to Setter Creeks then. As far as we can tell, the Whiro Feral Hogs appeared on Settler Creeks and in a move reminiscent of every zombie movie ever, they infected all the other animals in the reserve too before anyone could even scream. That’s right, this year we’re on Settler’s. Along with Werewolves stalking the shadowy forests, you’ll find a host of other creepy creatures, mostly less aggressive but a couple are somewhat dangerous if you get too close. There’s new stuff, old stuff, and creepy stuff, so go have fun in the campaign, missions, competitions, and hunting in general.

Participate for the prizes, the trophies, and the glory! The hunter with the most Bat$ at the end of November 2nd will win a very generous first prize!

In order to take part in the event, you will have to click on the big banner you will find in the Launcher (or Website) home page:

Read on and familiarize yourself with the rules of the event.

Duration: 9 days

Start: 25 October 2023 (Wednesday) – morning

CAMPAIGN

So how do you collect Bat$?

A slight catch, you’ll have to look for everything in Settler Creeks. Hey, you should be there anyway! That’s where all the fun stuff is.

This is how the prize pool looks:

MISSION

This year’s mission is called Gilles??

Howdy, there seems to be evidence that Gilles de Rais is still among the living… Well, we assume he’s living, but it’s Halloween and you really can’t be sure that just because someone is moving around they’re alive, right? We’ve lost a lot of operatives confirming Gilles’ involvement this year (and others? Who can say?). Anyway, we’re out of spies, so you’re going to have to take what information we can give you and hunt this particular werewolf down! Between all our determined hunters, someone will get GIlles, right? Remember to pack plenty of silver with you, nothing else we have will help you.

While you’re out there, Van wanted you to pick up some samples. You may have noticed that once again we have some new critters running around with their werewolf buddies. Make sure you hunt with Wolfsbane and silver, or you’re only going to irritate them.

The mission will last through the event duration from the 25th October to the 2nd November

Completing it will earn the hunter the following rewards:

RULES

What would a game be without rules?

We have one simple rule for our events: No exploitation of existing game mechanics to gain an advantage. All winners’ hunts will be checked by EW staff prior to prizes being rewarded, and the decision will be final.

In case of exploits usage, EW has a right to disqualify the player from this event.

SALES

And what would an Event be without sales? We’re not sure, but we do know that we’d get nasty messages if we skipped them, so we’ve made sure to put sales in.

Make sure to check out the Sales section to see the full list!

QoL Update

20230927_game_updates_805x380

Howdy Hunters!

We’ve got a nice little QoL release for you this week, something to tide you over until the lodge customization is ready:

* 2-10x42mm scope fixed for .300 and .308 rifles.
* Following the recent update for showing the point of interest names/descriptions on the in-game map – we’ve removed the descriptions, as these were over-informative and useless.
* Some new CC weapons did not give any HunterScores – fixed.
* Ibex, Bighorn, and Dall Sheep can now be mounted to the Medium platform in the lodges – this will apply to all medium platforms in all lodges.
* Fall Field scarf and backpack had a wrong pattern – fixed.
* Wood Grouse added to the Daily Missions.
* Some competitions with the new parameters announced in the previous release will be added to the rotation from this Saturday.

Well, that’s all for now. Grab the update HERE

Happy Hunting!

P.S. Final bit of news, and pay attention, the November event will be a set of competitions. We’re currently planning it for the Black Friday/Cyber Monday weekend. There will be some tiered comps like you see in events for everyone to enter and an Invitational like we had last year, between the League’s top players this year and competitors from BCKidd’s Forum Competitions. League players, keep an eye out for that Invitational email over the next couple of weeks.

New Comp Parameters

20230913_game_updates_805x380

Howdy Hunters!

We’ve been focusing on the backend this week, prepping some new stuff and putting some bugs down.

For the new, we have some new competition parameters coming to expand what we can do there for regular and event competitions. We’ll have a few of these popping up in the next couple of days for a test run before they’re added into the rotation with more to come later.

* A new score type of CSS
* Number of shots to be used (You will have a limited total number of bullets for the competition)
* No miss (You cannot miss a shot. Hits don’t all need to be kills, but they must hit)
* Time limit (This counts for each hunt, not as a total over attempts)
* The highest subtract the lowest score/weight of the trophy
* Score minus Distance, distance cannot exceed score (lowest difference wins)
* Score minus Wound time in seconds
* Score of the male plus weight of the female
* Score plus distance shot; distance not to exceed animals score (Highest total wins)

For the fixes, and a couple of these will definitely be very interesting to some of you:

– All points of interest now can be checked directly on the in-game map by hovering it with a mouse.
– Order of the weapons and ammo are now sorted alphabetically in inventory
– Scope fixed for .223 rifles and Scout
– Flinter’s Parker Python had a flipped logo – fixed

As usual, give us a heads-up about any bugs or feedback you have.

Content Creator Items

20230906_game_updates_805x380

Howdy Hunters!

Just a quick note to say that the Content Creator items are now buyable in the Store. There isn’t an update for this in Steam, but you may need to clear your launcher cache to be able to see them there (In the top right corner of the launcher go to Settings => Clear launcher cache).

As usual, let us know if you spot any bugs or the like.

Happy Hunting!
