Are there any (planned) stealth mechanics in the game?

I'm looking to get this game but I'm hoping for some element of stealth. Are there any mechanics for it currently in the alpha or are there plans for it in the future?

Right now it's more about avoiding the wolves. They have a range of detection about 30m and you try to stay out of it unless your going to shoot it.

In real life animals normally know your there within 100 meters or more and if they here you clomping around or you have a strong enough scent animals like deer of coyotes will be gone before you see them. Camouflage helps for standing still and long distances but with the 20 meter effective rifle range it seems kinda useless.

I don't think it's really a stealth game.

I doubt there will be any element where stalking would be a good idea. You can approach deer already when crouching and moving slowly, so I don't think there will be any further improvement on that.
