I'm pretty sure we'll have several cat variants after the bobcat. This is really a milestone in theHunter.
Yes, exactly. Thing about the Bobcat is, tho, is that they are hunted the same as Coyote. Bobcats very seldom climb trees, so I hope that is not the new mechanic because it would be dead ass WRONG. I am NOT saying bobcats do not climb trees, they do and are comfortable doing so, but they are not climbers in the vein of, say, the Mountain Lion. So, ahead of time, no need to show pictures of Bobcats in the trees LOL. (I know this forum MUCH too well lol). Bobcats are solitary animals, and are built for silence on ground. As said, in the game they should not be much different from the Coyote, as both the predator and decoy should attract them. Just do not expect anything really ground breaking with them, hunting-wise. Who knows? Maybe instead of feeders there will be traps that can hold one?

Finally a cat in the game! How long have we hoped and whined for this!

I´m thrilled...

I have played many games but this I am hooked on, I hope all the members appreciate the hard work, innovation, blood sweat and tears that goes into this game. What sets this apart is the forum....unlike most other games they actually read what we want and do their best to make it happen.

Fantastic news on the cat and I take my hat off to the team in Sweden, and wish to all the best from an Irishman in Germany.......

Cheers

WOW! A bobcat, I think it will be a great addition to the game, looking forward to see them in action. FYI in my 40+ years of hunting I have seen 4 or 5 and taken 1 and there are plenty where I hunt, so this should be very interesting.

three packs of challenging missions (at least two players, Sycoshowbob and Ravenous_Fox, have already completed all of them, impressive!)
Thanks. :)
I was hoping for Squirrel but Bobcat is still good, can't wait! :)

Thanks for this status update Staff and Devs.
So the Bobcat is the new species, cool !!! Hurry to see what you realise about the AI.
Welcome aboard to Martin :)
And about the 3 packs of "easy" missions, only one pack done for me actually, not so easy by the way : WT Ptarmigans with .22 Alena ... I don't see them, where are they ?
We definitively need a Ptarmigans locator to find them, and increase the spawn number of them please :)
TgT is too big and it's too difficult to walk for expecting made nice ptarmigans hunts.
