Tapirs mentioned?

NikolaP · Aug 25, 2019

In this article, at the bottom, PC Gamer mentioned tapirs. "https://www.pcgamer.com/the-best-games-from-gamescom-2019/ "

" I’m gonna be all over the beta. And wait till you see the baby tapirs. They’d melt the hardest hearts."

What do you think is this magazine got permission from Frontier to tell us about another animal?

If that's the case,i guess that should be the Central American Tapir

I'm not 100% convinced they didn't mix up the tapir with the warthog or something. That being said, I'd be surprised if we didn't get a tapir.

Wow! Relly hope to see malayan tapir, although I will be happy if any tapir is included.

NikolaP · Aug 25, 2019

I don't know I think magazines got a permission to reveal some stuff? IGN revealed indian rhino officialy, but also indian elephant and okapi just we have to see the yet in the game. PC gamer on the other side revealed tapirs. Honestly it make sense to me. I don't think they mistaken this, this was silent new animal reveal.

Yes, the animal list sheet did say Tapir.

NikolaP · Aug 25, 2019

Can we see somewhere that list? I mean I don't care if I know every specie or not, my hype for the game could be just bigger and bigger when game is phenomenal like this.

How could you guys be so sure an odd-toed mammal with a short stubby trunk would be in this game?

Tapirs are unmistakable, if you know what a tapir is, you know what a tapir is. I think we can take this is 100% tapirs confirmed

NikolaP · Aug 28, 2019

I don't know if I'm allowed here this to say but PC Gamer released another interesting article where they mentioned south american specie of tapir and pronghorns. And soon after that the article get deleted. Maybe they shouldn't mention pronghorns?

Voids Light · Aug 28, 2019

Tapirs seem likely, as I don't believe anyone would confuse a Tapir with a warthog, but yet, I wouldn't be surprised if they did mix the two up, and people call chimps monkeys.

NikolaP · Aug 28, 2019

Tapirs are already confirmed. The article which get deleted goes like " how I dealt with an escaped rhino and bored tapir"

They won't mistake twice xD

Voids Light · Aug 28, 2019

If the article is deleted, then its practically confirmed, and frontier didn't want them to confirm it.

NikolaP · Aug 28, 2019

Yes it gets deleted soon after was released. Also article clearly mentioned pronghorns.

Every new animal mentioned in this article are probably going to make it into the game then.

PC Gamer played a different version then?

I thought everyone would be playing the same Alpha build.

Well maybe that explains why IGN has Indian Rhinos.

I think the press played a more current build of the game, while influencers got to play the public build. I don't really think the media were allowed to talk about the stuff in the demos they've played without the consent of frontier.

Exactly!~ xD Streamers had a different version, the public had a slightly different version and I guess the completely private ones that had devs alongside them had quite a few different versions?

I think the press had the same version as other press members, which would be the most current build of the game I believe, while the streamers have a streamers build, and the public had a build with a tutorial and timer in it.
