Hello! it's my first post on the forum and the first time I participate in one I guess.

Here are some aurora screenshots that I took from the vehicle of Broken Bridge (Broken Railroad).

Welcome to the Forum @Madkast. Nice pics.

From my latest adventures. Can you guess the regions?  

How did you manage to access this area?

There is something that has bothered me for some time, why does FM have three radio towers?

My point is: there are other regions that have only one radio tower like ML, PV, MT and BI, and there are others that don't even have a single tower, like CH wich seems to have been one of the most populated regions on the island. So why should an uninhabited swamp have three radio towers?

Sometimes he has a point, to be fair...

what is the coldest verified temp ever in the game?  Anyone got to a feels like sub -100?

 

That's my record:

The lowest temperature I've ever felt.

1) Why the game has made us go further south until now, while we should go north?

2) Why the island doesn't have any type of government structure? For example: City Hall, Police Station, Fire Station, Hospital, etc.

3) Shouldn't it be possible to communicate with the mainland through radio stations during the Auroras?

4) FM is one of the regions with the lowest human presence, however it has 3 radio towers, while other more populated regions have only 1, such as Milton, or even none, such as CH and DP. Why?

We aren't really sure where "North" is on the World map (some seeming inconsistencies with the Cardinal Directions noted by several players over the years, pointing out sunrise and moonrise inconsistencies on some maps...). And we don't know how accurate Jeri is when he says "North of...". True North? NE? NW? Or some variation thereof? And the new region I am suggesting, connecting TWM and DP would not be Perseverance Mills. @Jimmy puts it closer to where I would imagine it.  The old (original by Hinterland, and changed to the new one we see now.. so the Wind Rose is likely not even close to being accurate...) World Map shows a road going from DP, up past TWM. And the red area on the map is shown as being a possible future area. With many regions now on the World map not shown at all (or possibly shown but not named). The area to the right of TWM, between DP and TWM, with the long road shown... that is where I imagine the new connecting region I am suggesting to be. That road being the one on the other side of the DP Broken Bridge we cannot reach right now. I do imagine the red area on the original map now being Episode 4 or 5, rather than the originally envisioned Episode 3 location, which is now PV (with some changes to the size and shape of the region, perhaps).

Assumptions:

1) Despite the old map being out of date, I believe we can use it as a reference to imagine what was on the creators' mind when they originally imagined the Great Bear Island and its regions.

2) According to the old map, Milton and PV are directly connected. So I don't think there is anny region between these two areas.

3) I think that going north in the road in Milton leads to Perseverance Mills.

3) The Prision Bus was going south on the Milton-PV road, but according to the old map the road end in the middle of nowhere. So I agree with @ThePancakeLady that there will be probably be a region in that area among CH-DP-PV-TWM.

4) I think that the Prision Bus came from Perseverance Mills and the Blackrock Penitentiary will be in the area among CH-DP-PV-TWM or on the mainland.

Questions:

1) Isn't it strange that the game has made us go further south until now, while we should go north?

2) Isn't it strange that the island has a bank branch, a post office, gas stations and even a hydroelectric plant, but it doesn't have any type of government structure? For example: City Hall, Police Station, Fire Station, Hospital, etc.

3) Shouldn't it be possible to communicate with the mainland through radio stations during the Auroras?

4) FM is one of the regions with the lowest human presence, however it has 3 radio towers, while other more populated regions have only 1, such as Milton, or even none, such as CH and DP. Why?

I just wondered whether we will continue to DP. The outro scene begins here:

Which prety much is the same we can see in CH near the Log Sort. Just ignore orcas, the ship wreck and missing posts and logs.

I was thinking, will CH be changed for the next episode (4 or 5?) like PV was changed to episode 3?

Now it really hurts my heart:

I think it must have hurt:

My first impressions of Bleak Inlet:

Hello Raph,

Firstly I want to congratulate the team for the great work and say that I really love this game and can't wait to play Episode 3. My questions are:

1) Will We have 4DON this year? I ask this because  of the release date of Episode 3.

2) I know the revolver wasn't made for that purpose, but is it "possible" to kill or make a bear bleed with the revolver? I would like to know before risking my life vainly.

Not sure you can still get here in the current version of the game. But, since old screenshots and Time Capsule screenshots seem to be fair game now...
This shot is an old one, from when I first started playing the game, just over 3 years ago. (Timestamp says July 30, 2016). 
I know where it is, and a small hint to anyone who knows me on Steam- this was one of my first big "crazy climbing" expeditions, the one that got me into trying to climb everything, everywhere. Try a Time Capsule game version if you want to see if you can get there and duplicate it. (The date I gave should tell you which version to try...)

 

Looks like Lake Overlook in Mystery Lake.

I started a Voyageur in DP. Summary of the first fifty days:

Kills: 4 Wolves, 2 Bears, 1 Deer and 9 Rabbits.

Now I'm going to CH.

The Invisible Bow

Here are some pics of when I reached the region on the other side of the collapsed tunnel. I did it by climbing that hillside above the cave in that "region" between the picnic area and the path to Mystery Lake.

Note: It was about one year ago, before the REDUX. I tried to do it after the REDUX and I couldn't, I believe that it's not possible anymore.

Fifty Shades of Aurora

It was said in the last Dev Diary that Episode Three was reduced from three to only one region. Could you tell us what are the other two regions in wich Episode Three would happen before the change? Just for curiosity 😁

It was also said that Pleasant Valley is being updated for Episode Three. Will this region update be available for Survival Mode before Episode Three?

I was in Coastal Highway, in that fishing hut near fishing camp, waiting for an aurora when I saw something that caught my eye. I've seen a set of stars that I know very well since I was a child because it's one of the most famous constellations in Southern Hemisphere, the Crux (aka Southern Cross). Image 1 shows what I saw in the game and image 2 shows the Southern Cross in the sky.

My question is: Is it really the Crux constellation what I saw in the game or just a huge coincidence?
