This is looking fantastic so far, thanks so much Dave. Are there any plans for god rays or any sort of volumetric lighting? Also, will positions for beta testing be open? I'd like to try and test stability with Ryzen systems seeing as I'm guessing you guys have been working mostly with intel/nvidia....

Will there be 144hz-240hz support?
Or caps for custom refresh rates. 60hz looks kinda like a slideshow to me at this point

This one may be a little questionable but the ability to place markers that other players can see.

Don't see why it would be questionable! Wolves can pee, scent mark with certain intents ect. :p You'd just be building off of that basically I think, with some more "gameplay" elements than realism.

The upcoming version of Unity has some massive core improvements which should allow huge herds....though that only creates new challenges, especially with multiplayer (transmitting movement data without lag for 100+ animals isn't a trivial matter). Oh wow, can you link me to that thread/post from t...

I wasn't able to listen to any dialogue yet but-- this is entirely awesome. I wonder how much of a pain it was to make the code seem more "english" than machine. :P The carcass looks fantastic too, and I love how the coyote looks. Can we maybe see the rigging/topology of the model? Overall you guys ...

It is SO exciting to see you guys using design decisions usually used in AAA games. I think it's going to all come together to add that extra layer of polish that will really make the game feel "fresh". The music Tim came up with also sounded incredible.

What will the tick rate of the server be? Are they dedicated instances like Overwatch or are they P2P? Our sync rate (which I guess is the same as tick rate) is 12 per second, which is slow compared to shooter games but sufficient for our gameplay. We're using Photon master/client multiplayer servi...

To make the game more realistic it would be nice if you could have the hierarchy stats; alpha pair, beta wolves, basic, youngsters and omega. This would be really useful for example when roleplaying realistically. And in generally too, like the point of this game is to make people more aware about ...

What will the tick rate of the server be? For example, Splatoon 2 is 16hz, overwatch is 60hz. Ect.

Are they dedicated instances like Overwatch or are they P2P?

Once I know this I can offer some ideas.

Looks totally normal here! ;D
Could we maybe have a stranger wolf that does this, and chases after floppy?

Yes, IK for legs and also for head (when biting etc). Though the model above doesn't have those set up.

Omg omg, can we see examples of it next week?

This is looking amazing so far. One of my favourite things about you guys as developers is that you're always willing to listen to critiques and openly ask for new ideas. I love it and how involved this community is! The artists did a great job on the wolf models, elk models, and wildlife in general...

Also roe deer? (There are roe deer in yellowstone right?) Roe deer is so smol it would make as quick/agile but easy to kill target! ( But difficult to spot, I know from experience x.x) Seems roe deer are only found in Europe. :P http://ichef.bbci.co.uk/naturelibrary/images/ic/464x261/r/ro/roe_deer/...
