Do I now have a Beefalo pet? (Bug ?)


Recommended Posts

Hey Community,

 

just recently I noticed this Beefalo following me around everywhere, including sleeping at my base. Is this some sort of feature I'm missing ? Genuinely interested. Below you'll find a screenshot of the beast (haven't named it yet :p).

Let me know what you think or know about this!

Well if you've used a beefalo horn, nearby beefalo are supposed to follow for a set period of time (a day I believe?). If it's been longer than that, permanent beefalo following isn't something I've known as being implemented. In which case, you're a lucky one and somehow snagged yourself a pet beefalo. Kudos!

Did you using Beffalo Horn?

If you using it, beffalo around you will follow you

Well, I used a Beefalo Horn near some baby Beefalo near the other end of the map, but none of those started following me and it was easily 5+ days ago, so I'm not really sure that still has an influence. And yeah, it is kinda cool but I can't really go exploring cuz I'm worried it'll be killed :(.

UPDATE! He's not following me, he's following chester, behavior I've also noticed in catcoons, but for shorter periods of time. Since summer is over, I left my snow chester b at the base and now the beefalo continues hovering around him :)

Oh god, even the beefalos are obeing chester... soon he will rule the DS world with an iron paw!

if you Kill a Beefo child's parent, there is a chance the baby Beefalo will follow you as a mother/father/whatever that Asexual thing is as Imprinting works until it's an adult. This was removed from the DS wiki but used to be in there. 
 
 
It is a separate thing than the Beefalo Horn.
 
Baby Beefalo do not follow the Beefalo horn blowers.  
 
 
Also, when exiting a cave, the Baby Beefalo might follow you until matured or killed. There is more info on this in the DS Wiki entry under Beefalo Bugs 
 

  • Occasionally when coming out of a cave, a Baby/Toddler/Teen Beefalo will start following the player until it grows into an adult or until it is killed.

Since this is an Adult Beefalo, I'm thinking it's a glitch somehow. Enjoy it or kill it.

Yeah I figured as much, still it was fun while it lasted :razz:. It went into mating season just now and started attacking chester so I had to put him down. RIP Beefalo, RIP.

I hardly knew ya Beefalo...but you were delicious! 

 

Funny, reminds me of...my own post.
