So Bohemia Interactive bought out Cauldron Ltd, correct? So will there old Devs that helped make Cabela's hunting games series be helping with the creation of animals in the game? (personally i didnt like the animals cauldron made for the Cabela's games.)

I thought they were working on zeds but I do remember seeing a devblog where they said the team that doing the hunting/animals had worked on hunting games before so you may be right.i personally havn't layed any hunting games though I imagine they are going to have to bring there A game. I think they know the community they are dealing with and know they can't half-ass it.

Yeah it was covered at Rezzed, they have plans for the above mentioned stuff in Q2 this year, they also said that they where having a dedicated team for animals so it would be a safe bet that some of the newly acquired staff will be working on that

I play almost only hunting video game and I am watching Dayz for this feature. I hope they will make a hunting simulation mode without these zombies (I hate that). For Cauldron, they have some of the best animals models and AI all around and you can see some videos of the latest title: Cabela's Big Game Hunter: Pro Hunts. They are not perfect but they can improve them to make it more realistic. Activision has kept the Arcade side of it which destroy the simulation experience: things like bullet cam, onscreen information, ... I can see what kind of hunting simulation can result if this studio (as experienced as it is in hunting titles) work with latest engine, the one that made Arma 3.

Can´t wait til them dudes/dudettes 1st contribution to DayZ kicks in (hopefully the next patch!).

In all they´ll make a great addition to Rocket´s team, just lean back and enjoy the ride my friends.

You won't ever be getting a hunting simulation mode, until people starting modding the game. :P

Oh crap! If they pull something similar for Standalone, that would be epic!

I always thought that Cabela's are some shitty arcade games as shown here Cabelas African Safari

I'm actually really pumped for hunting in DayZ...But also a little bit concerned...I hope the devs will think about balancing the amount of beans, cans of tuna etc. when they implement hunting...To kinda force players to actually hunt.

^This, that's almost essential to get people to hunt.

I have a dream...

 

That one day we will have a perfect game that covers so many areas from real life in a realistic way that I could play all the games by just having one.

 

I would love to see the hunting made realistic as possible with separate and natural animal AI. Would be awesome.
