Use the Microsoft Store app to check for updates. It should be available. I was actually surprised that i already got the update this morning. The Microsoft store is normally so late updating my Windows Game Pass games compared to Steam.

Sorry Hinterland but this event does not do it for me. It's not too scary or hard, i just don't think this challenge is very fun to play. I got the first badge for the endless night option and that's enough for me.

CH and FM are imo fairly straightforward to quickly pass through. Entering the MT basin and leaving MT through the cave to ML is going to be a challenge in 30 minutes with all the climbing. Going the opposite way is likely easier. BI is obviously the most difficult. Normally i try to sneak past the timberwolf packs but for this challenge one or more marine flares will have to do the trick. To avoid the long route over the bridge a possible alternative route would be to use the hidden path along the hills and then drop down. May be tricky during the night depending on the weather. Anyway i really like these challenges where you need to rush such as hopeless rescue and the hunted. Last year during 4DON i had the most fun when i just rushed into the snowstorm looking for pies instead of taking shelter.

Reaching the summit on voyageur is funny because the game completely drowns you in loot in the same way as the Fallout New Vegas DLC Dead Money drowns you in gold bars. It's all too much and too heavy to carry away. In my own first survival run it was the moment when i realized that the voyageur difficulty had become way too easy for me. Unless you really like hoarding and transporting a lot of loot i would suggest you continue to 100 days and then try the Interloper difficulty.

Are the 2 ropes between Milton and the basin always attached at the start? The farm sometimes has a rope but i don't remember if that rope was needed to climb down.

I am thinking of starting the challenge in DP (assuming we can chose the starting region) and making a final stand on top of TWM. The issue is that there is not always a rope down to BI. In a regular game i would go to ML for a spare rope but for this challenge i may need a rope from CH. Never looked there for a rope. I think the lookout tower sometimes has one. Finding a rope in ML within 30 minutes might be tricky when you're chased by a monster. 👻

+1 for cross platform support. I have been playing TLD on PC for several years now. I've pre-ordered an Xbox Series X and would like to keep my profile/badges/stats etc. (the stuff that's in the user001 file). TLD supports Xbox Play Anywhere but unfortunately the Windows Store version of TLD does not pick up the profile nor saves from my Steam version of the game.

I'm giving up. It's not fun anymore. Either i have no luck at FM or there is a bug with the moose spawn. I have stayed in and patrolled the whole region for 22 days. Also have mountains of wolf meat that i shot out of boredom. Perhaps i'll try it again next winter.

Throwing a few rocks at the moose to guide it to a better spot often works well. Of the 8 moose i shot so far in this run (7 with the rifle, 1 with the bow) one managed to stomp me. That happened because i got stuck in the terrain for a few seconds while retreating.

There is a good cave very near (Pensive Vista cave) and also wood+coal. When i found that moose on a run i cut all the meat to pieces at the spot and transported that to the cave. I already had good clothing though before coming to HRW. It has been a while and unfortunately i don't remember if there also was a satchel at the signal fire.

Yeah the moose in FM is elusive. In other regions a moose appeared relatively quickly. I also still need to hunt the moose in Desolation Point. Haven't seen that one very often in previous runs but DP is smaller so the moose should be easier to spot than in FM.

Thank you. I'll go camping there for a while.

I'm trying to shoot a moose in Forlorn Muskeg for a personal challenge (shooting a moose in each region). I've looked at the whiteberry map and it shows the moose spawn locations as the Marsh Ridge and the NE part of the region (to the right when you enter FM from ML). So far my camping in those areas was not successful. Does anyone know if there are other locations in FM where the moose can appear?
