I walked it there. That was aesthetic.
I wish someone would have happened by. I'd have given them the fish. :3

Guys can you find the ghost at blue water marsh in online? Or any of the spooky mysteries that have the solo?
silver nova
No you cant find the ghost not sure about others
rare minnow
Does anyone here craft ammo online?
summer dagger
Yis
wise jewel
I make incendiary and explosive ammo bit that's it
Never use split point its just a shit tier express
split point is amazing
valid timber
What do I need to craft these bully’s guys
summer dagger
By almost the same as tier 3 unblinking eye
valid timber
Bullets*
summer dagger
And it increases dmg and accuracy
rare minnow
@summer daggeryea the accuracy increase is amazing
summer dagger
And one other stat I forgot about
summer dagger
But you can stack split point with unblinking eye for like somewhere near 8-9 extra seconds of dead eye its stupid good
Pamphlet, lvl 28 and a knife
valid timber
Oh I’m level 15
valid timber
What do you guys suggest for lvl up
rare minnow
I am crafting one every 2 seconds and am still only able to craft so many before i have to stop for 5 min
Is there a better or easier way?
summer dagger
Just hold the button till it lags you dont have to time yourself in 2 second intervals
Can usually craft around 50 before it glitches
Timing yourself is doing too much
rare minnow
And then what after it lags?
summer dagger
Just wait, no getting around it right now
Same as you have to now
Just waiting 2s intervals is an unnecessary step that would probably make it a little less annoying
summer dagger
Np :)
Yeah it gets a little old
But split points worth, whoever said they're bad 
Probably my favorite special ammo because it's basically a free tier 3 ability card
unblinking eye
rare minnow
Yea it really is, it maxes out accuracy and thats amazing in itself
Im only using for showdowns though
summer dagger
I use for everything :) is not that bad when your main weapon only holds 50 so can usually craft a full stock before glitch happens
(Bolt action)
shell stirrup
What
rare minnow
Promotion boi!
summer dagger
?
rare minnow
I just changed to yellow lol
rare minnow
I was red for like one month, i get that
summer dagger
#expwaste
rare minnow
Hey btw, im just now finding out that we can sell plants to the doc lol
wise jewel
Yeah I do that with stuff I pickup randomly
Wish you could sell shit to the general store aswell
rare minnow
How much do they go for?
summer dagger
Indian tobacco too good to sell tho
summer dagger
^
Anyone else have a really irritating glitch(?) Where your camera constantly overcorrects to the left?
like pls stahp.
upbeat hamlet
only happens to me when some stupid animal is bothering my horse
like wolves for example
summer dagger
It tries so hard to get me to look left sometimes it fights my actual controller input
upbeat hamlet
try reloading the game is all I can say
Oh and for anyone getting the horse bonding glitch
summer dagger
Flee pont
upbeat hamlet
you know the one where it says you horse has reached level one bonding?
summer dagger
Pony*
upbeat hamlet
yeah
summer dagger
When it comes back he is best friend again
upbeat hamlet
I just found that out
summer dagger
upbeat hamlet
it also fixed my horses spontaneous sex changes
summer dagger
Whenever my horse gets the bonding glitch it also grows a nutsack

#pubertyisabitch
wise jewel
Just went 31-4 using dual mausers on hostile territory
rare minnow
Nice
wise jewel
Gonna call them gat and ling because they're fucking machine guns
rare minnow
If I had a rapid fire controller I would dual weild mausers
wise jewel
I would buy a foot pedal and bind it to rt and fucking break my ankles
rare minnow
Haha
wise jewel
I just eyes wide open'd a lvl 8 noob six times aswell
He was lvl 8 tho so it isn't that impressive
wise jewel
Yes
rare minnow
It doesnt seem that fast with just 1
wise jewel
Atleast I think so
That's why I bought two
The semi auto pistol is a bit faster but it takes 5 shots to kill a lvl8 and it carries two less rounds than a Mauser
wise jewel
Managed to dodge all of the varmimt users in Blackwater and I saw one of them do a dive off of the rooftop
Classy 👌
rare minnow
Haha
I love varmint users
My char is usually overweight, so with sns takes so many shots for me to go down
wise jewel
Mine is thicc but not fat so I'm hella nimble and always diving
rare minnow
Nice
wise jewel
Not off rooftops though
rare minnow
Haha 
summer dagger
Cattleman is fun in name your weapon
wise jewel
I was gonna buy another cattleman and make them look sick but don't have any more money
I mean irl
wise jewel
I just use Mauser and Litchfield because they the most expensive in their class
summer dagger
Am talking about for showdowns tho
Specifically name your weapon
Bought those two guns and customized just for that game mode
wise jewel
Yeah that's surprisingly fun
summer dagger
Normal modes I use dual volcanic and pump and bolt action
rare minnow
Yea cattleman is 100% accuracy with split point
summer dagger
wise jewel
Dead eye and explosive rounds on Litchfield is surprisingly good
summer dagger
Explosive rounds on anything with or without dead eye is gud
They go boom and make others ded real gud
wise jewel
Just because Litchfield has better range than Lancaster and dead eye makes it even better
summer dagger
Just uploaded video from last night of absolutely dominating a group of 6 in Blackwater 6v2 with my friend because they were griefing him in #red-dead-media
rare minnow
Wow griefers from this server? @summer dagger
summer dagger
Nahh just random griefers
rare minnow
Ah
bright forge
What if it was people from the server?
bright forge
Why would you be sorry?
wise jewel
There are definitely griefers in this server @rare minnow just look at #gang-recruitment-ps and once in a while you see a stupid griefing gang
rare minnow
Yea but i mean, to grief someone u see in chat, thats like a whole other level of griefing
wise jewel
Just being a twat not just griefing
bright forge
One, I don’t subscribe to your belief that initiating non-consensual pvp in free roam is an inherently bad action.
wise jewel
Yeah it's a free roam game
bright forge
Two, there are numerous reasons the game incentivizes player vs. player combat in free roam.
It’s a central pillar of the game
So because of the core game mechanics and the fact that there is a parley function it’s fundamentally impossible to “grief” in this game
wise jewel
I mean the worst thing you could do is kill someone and their horse and steal their hunt
bright forge
I’ve played sooo many open world pvp combat oriented games over years where players screem griefer for people just paying the game as it was envisioned. I had hopes that a game about outlaws would end that Trend
I’m disappointed that it’s just the same old trope
Also per your point venom. Stealing a players hunt is a totally legit reason to kill someone. Highway robbery is done by npc gangs in story mode constantly. Online is centered around player interaction in which case the job of the npc gangs is replaced by players
rare minnow
Yea i love pvp open world and griefing is part of the game, I love it actually, but the thing that is fun to me about open world pvp and farming/spawn killing someone is that I dont know them and there is a sense of freedom and no guilt because its kind of incognito. Killing someone from chat over and over and farming them would seem personal to me
summer dagger
I love free world pvp I'm usually the first one to start some shit :)
It's why the dark souls franchise is my favorite series
Literally spend hours invading and making ppl salty
wise jewel
And if they had larger servers like 48 or 64 players it would be more of a shooter
I like that the world is sparce except for a few settlements because they're basically a place to go for combat
summer dagger
the open world pvp is actually why I bought the game
But I knew itd have a great story too because the first game did and the ratings were insane
rare minnow
If I was on Xbox and I saw Horse Veterinarian I would definitely kill him a few times, but I wouldnt sit therw for like 30 min or an hour just killing him lol
wise jewel
Yeah most of the times when my gang kills people are when they get too close to our coach
Not taking any chances since we are just on big target in a wagon
summer dagger
Most of the time I kill people because they happened to be in the same general vicinity as me
wise jewel
Most of the time lonely travellers stay away because of the 6 repeaters aimed at their head
And German iron
From yours trully
summer dagger
Am that one idiot who would start a big fight with 6 ppl as I have many other times before
upbeat hamlet
@bright forge Griefing happens
you can never have an open world game because the pvp side will ALWAYS ruin the pve side of it.
The parley function is shit as it only applies to a single person. So if a posse is chasing you anyone of them can still shoot at you before the parley function works
rare minnow
I now WoW does pve/pvp servers
upbeat hamlet
too many ways to exploit the current game that just kills the chances for a decent pvp/pve game
summer dagger
Or one person in your posse can start a stranger mission and force parley to end which is hilarious
wise jewel
That's only the posse leader though
summer dagger
Especially when you flawless dude 4 times and he parley and it instantly ends so you run him down on your horse like "you thought bitch"
upbeat hamlet
if they better balanced the game to give pve players a decent counter to players shooting at them just to hear the sound of their gun go bang then I can see that being okay
but currently that is not the case
and I doubt it will ever happen as take two or rock star care more about getting micro transactions up and running and loading the game down with then than game balance
summer dagger
Counter argument pve players could not be a weenie and use the exploits to their advantage like I do when I pve and it always freaken works
upbeat hamlet
@summer dagger pvp players are no better
summer dagger
Spawn in st.denis fast travel across map
upbeat hamlet
its not good on either side
upbeat hamlet
@summer dagger sure just fast travel for 12 dollars
wise jewel
So
wise jewel
12$ is nothing
wise jewel
You gotta have atleast 12$ otherwise you finna die
upbeat hamlet
okay so every time I load in I am expected to pay $12 to try and avoid getting shot by asshats?
summer dagger
St.denis to Blackwater is like 9$
And if you cant afford that wtf are you doing in the game
Seriously xD
wise jewel
@upbeat hamlet that's not gonna happen. Just run away of you don't wanna fight
Of*
If*
upbeat hamlet
its fine
apparently rockstar is doing something about anti griefing
so we'll see
wise jewel
Probably some passive bs
upbeat hamlet
meh its fine
summer dagger
That will be fine with me same satisfaction as getting someone to parley or passive as it was in gta
upbeat hamlet
except they can go passive instantly
summer dagger
Pvp'er when someone goes passive: bahaha I got him to go passive what a weenie
upbeat hamlet
lol sure...
summer dagger
upbeat hamlet
sounds like what a retard would say
summer dagger
When pve people dont realize the pvp'ers goal is generally to get you to A. run away, B. Go passive, C. Quit the lobby
upbeat hamlet
hey its fine if they give pve people something to avoid the online immaturity then all the better
summer dagger
upbeat hamlet
you can go and shoot each other in the face for all I care
summer dagger
Trust me I will
upbeat hamlet
I'll be happy in the notion you cant bother me with your stupidity and immaturity
solid hound
Honestly I’ve gotten lucky and rarely have people randomly attack me, they seem to leave me alone so this has never been s problem lol
upbeat hamlet
eh I dont worry about people attacking me
I know how people are and how to avoid the stupid
like I said most wont stray far from their initial spawn spot
so as long as you are on the other side of the map you are good
solid hound
I travel all over the map, I’ll start down at the bottom and slowly work my way to saint Dennis when doing stranger missions.
upbeat hamlet
stranger missions with the mission still being stranger will still put you into a private session
though once completed it drops you back into a regular session
solid hound
Private session? No? I run across random players all the time while doing the mission
upbeat hamlet
depends
a lot of the time i do stranger missions I still get dropped into a private session
solid hound
I never get dropped into private sessions that I’ve noticed
bright forge
I never get dropped into a private session for stranger missions
upbeat hamlet
I still do
if the mission is still stranger
and you get the cut scene it dropped me into a private session
bright forge
Also upon reading up, referring to someone as stupid or immature just because they initiate non-consensual pvp just shows how stupid and immature you really are. The expectation that people aren’t going to shoot you in a game about outlaws where people are given guns and dynamite is nieve at best.
upbeat hamlet
the game isnt completel about outlaws
bright forge
Also I hope they fix that about stranger missions
upbeat hamlet
you are given a clear choice
bright forge
No, you play a band of outlaws
upbeat hamlet
and a lot DO just shoot you to hear the sound of their gun go bang
there is a lot of stupidity and immature idiots
honer is there for a reason pal
good or bad
your choice
bright forge
And even so, based on that point. You are given the choice to not play as an honorable character. So by that very fact playing a senseless murder is a perfectly normal career path
upbeat hamlet
granted its not working as intended, but I assume it will later
it would be fine if there was proper system in place to counter act asshats
but there is not
bright forge
It just doesn’t conform to your hugs and kisses vision for the game so instead of just accepting that people enjoy combat against things that aren’t npcs you resort to name calling
And they do give you a counter
upbeat hamlet
hugs and kisses?
bright forge
Your own guns and can parley
upbeat hamlet
name calling what the hell are you even talking about?
parley is a broken system dude
if you cant see that then clearly you are blind
bright forge
“Counteract asshats”
upbeat hamlet
because thats what a lot of them are?
bright forge
See
bright forge
When you lower yourself to name calling you negate the validity of your argument
upbeat hamlet
stop being some sensitive snowflake
bright forge
I’m not a sensitive snowflake
upbeat hamlet
accept a lot of online community is toxic
bright forge
I’m just giving you a pro life tip
shell stirrup
Lol
upbeat hamlet
if you played online games you should have seen how toxic it can be
and they fact you ignore it and just wave it off as name calling is just being blind to it
shell stirrup
I went through a town not too long ago with 10 people all in it and not one shot fired
bright forge
You want to come of as a cogent individual when trying to get a point across you should avoid using derogatory comment directed at individuals.
upbeat hamlet
I never said everyone was scum
bright forge
“Accept a lot of the community is toxic”
shell stirrup
Not scum but Rebel scum
bright forge
You’re making broad sweeping comments that aren’t actually indicative of the player base at large
upbeat hamlet
um yes it is
bright forge
I rarely get shot at
shell stirrup
It's really a circular argument and not worth it
bright forge
Biosoga also just commented that peaceful interactions are very common for him too
shell stirrup
Yeah but five minutes later everybody started shooting at each other when one guy stole something off another guy's horse
So it really doesn't take much
upbeat hamlet
everything sometimes is at a knives edge
bright forge
You literally just said “online is full of asshats”
shell stirrup
I was just surprised that 10 people can get together without shooting each other for 5 minutes
tired oar
When is this coming out of beta
bright forge
No one knows
bright forge
Probably not for a few months
bright forge
There are achievements for killing people from a train
tired oar
Well why would anyone waste time or money on it if you dont even know when you will lose everything and start over
bright forge
you’re complaining about something rockstar is literally telling us to do
upbeat hamlet
I doubt at this point they are going to reset peoples stats
bright forge
They have said they aren’t going to reset us
upbeat hamlet
to much has been invested
shell stirrup
One time I logged into st-denis because I usually do the login trick and fast travel to Blackwater. I shot one person in Saint Denis and fast travel to Blackwater. That guy rode his horse all the way to Blackwater just shoot me and then log off
upbeat hamlet
thats dedication
bright forge
Yea way too much time has been invested. If they needed to reset players they would of done it already
And if they did now there would be a riot
rare minnow
@bright forgeif it was me I would have stopped the train to shoot him just because, but im glad there is an achievment tied to that... would have been a +
upbeat hamlet
roit? hell a lynching and fires
bright forge
There are sooooo many achievements centered around player vs player combat
summer dagger
Can you disable the kill feed in red dead online?
I have a fun idea for a custom game mode with friends if you can
bright forge
There is literally an achievement for shooting just players in the back
upbeat hamlet
@bright forge yeah because rockstar wants people to be at each other's throats
bright forge
So if you start combat with someone just to get them to run away and shoot them in the back of the head you’re literally just doing what the devs intended
EXACTLY
summer dagger
Murder mystery in braithwait manor, disable kill feed a referee chooses someone in party to be killer through dm, everyone else has to use lasso on killer if they figure it out
upbeat hamlet
a game built around toxicity and revenge... what a great concept
summer dagger
All depends if you can turn off kill feed tho online
bright forge
so it’s impossible to “grief” people or be an “asshat” for starting a fight with someone because that’s exactly what the devs intended the game to center around
upbeat hamlet
to be assholes?
bright forge
Yes
upbeat hamlet
boy that sounds like great game design
bright forge
Well it’s their game
If you wanted to play a game where people walk around shaking hands all day I think you chose the wrong title
upbeat hamlet
at least they seem to see it was a problem as they are working on ways for people to simply turn it off
and just looking...
actually most of the achievements are not centered around pvp
only like 1 or 2 is
well the trophies
bright forge
Yea the in game achievements not the the xbox live or PlayStation ones
wise jewel
My entire posse was chilling in the Saint Denis saloon smoking cigars and what have you and a lvl 10 noob walked in and one of those "that guy that walks into the saloon" moment. No one moved until he went up to the counter
upbeat hamlet
even the in game achivements are not majorly centered around pvp
only one category
bright forge
But there are ones that are
upbeat hamlet
competitive
bright forge
And people want to complete them
bright forge
There are some that are player only
bright forge
And the fact that you don’t get a a bounty in free roam for killing a player means that the devs are pushing your towards player combat
No
The shots in the back count in free roam
bright forge
Yea
upbeat hamlet
players should be able to get the law on you
bright forge
But it isn’t that way
So as of the current state of the game we have incentives in place that are geared towards player oriented combat
Also larger point the entire idea of online play is to interact with other players be them friendly or violent interactions. If the devs wanted us to just fight npcs we just have story mode
summer dagger
You should have jumped him and taken his lunch money @wise jewel
bright forge
Yea then burned the bar down
wise jewel
Nah I had a gaurd on the balcony so I asked him to shoot that guy when he left and he obliged @summer dagger
bright forge
That’s what bars are for
upbeat hamlet
what?
bright forge
Burning them
upbeat hamlet
but you cant burn them down though
bright forge
It’s a figurative pass time
wise jewel
We pretty much owned the Saint Denis saloon
bright forge
You can’t set them fire and it’s fucking awesome
wise jewel
No strangers coming in
bright forge
Sometimes if you get it right the fire spreads and it’s great
Yes you can’t trust people
Sometimes you gotta shoot first and never ask any questions ever
wise jewel
If they make it in the will have five Litchfields aimed at their dome piece
Same story if they got too close to our coach
bright forge
That’s when you start lobbing dynamite arrows through the door
Oh yea if anyone even looks in our direction during a stranger mission they are getting shot
wise jewel
We would all get to the roof and snipe the person if they started doing that
upbeat hamlet
@bright forge I already play that stance
wise jewel
My character is basically the queen
summer dagger
Yesterday me and friend were hanging outside ammo store... two randoms inside.. one walks out and I grapple him from behind on accident instead of my friend... rolled with it and kidney punched him to death.. his friend comes out and tries to knife me. Grapple him from the front at the last bit of hp before he would have got me.. choke him out
Savage melee double kill was savage
upbeat hamlet
if they get close I have my gun drawn and if I see them draw theirs they get shot
summer dagger
bright forge
The melee in this game is so much fun
upbeat hamlet
most dont know how to block
wise jewel
Especially bow and arrow executions
upbeat hamlet
or block poorly
wise jewel
Theyre so satisfying
bright forge
Oh those are so good
upbeat hamlet
I had some dude tackle me and hog tie me, broke free and beat him down. He never tried to block.
neon python
Any news on the update?
bright forge
Excuse me for a moment while I put this arrow in your neck
upbeat hamlet
wouldn't expect anything until the end of the month really
bright forge
No not yet it May not be for another week or 2
upbeat hamlet
^
umbral notch
ROCKSTAR FIX MY GAME REEEEEEEEE
bright forge
What’s broken?
upbeat hamlet
horses
wise jewel
Can't wait to buy a wagon instead of stealing one. And a mansion
bright forge
Oh yea I the horse bonding glitch
But I was more referring to what he was experiencing specifically
upbeat hamlet
everytime my female horse gets the glitch
umbral notch
I just want a cabin in the woods and a wagon
upbeat hamlet
she grows a pair of balls
umbral notch
And just hunt
bright forge
Good luck with that
wise jewel
I want a mansion in Saint Denis and a stagecoach
umbral notch
Ooo and heists
bright forge
Cabin and wagon sure
upbeat hamlet
its tough to toss shit in a wagon
bright forge
Peace? war never changes
upbeat hamlet
but it will all rot before you get it back to the butcher
neon python
Yeah cargo wagons would be rad for hunting
wise jewel
@upbeat hamlet they would probably ad the ability to put shit in the wagon more easily
upbeat hamlet
carcasses decay over time
neon python
Ability to pack up multiple carcasses
wise jewel
@upbeat hamlet not if you're fast
upbeat hamlet
maybe
neon python
And large pelts
bright forge
I didn’t think they decayed in online.
neon python
They don’t decay, they just disappear
wise jewel
It would be good if you had a wagon with a whinch and you could pick up bear carcasses
upbeat hamlet
I though they did
bright forge
I’ve never had one de ay or disappear from my horse
upbeat hamlet
@wise jewel lol aint no hand winch going to pick up a bear
neon python
They disappear from my horse EVERY time I have to to summon it
bright forge
What kind of internet and hardware do you have and have you checked your internet status?
well yea
wise jewel
@upbeat hamlet powered by a separate horse?
bright forge
If your horse resets and leaves you lose everything that’s by design
upbeat hamlet
@wise jewel Eh I dont think thats going to happen
neon python
That’s so frustrating through because my horse takes off if I do much as jump off to collect some herbs
bright forge
Bears weight a literal ton
wise jewel
I know but it would be fun
neon python
Ooooh I forgot about hitching the horse
upbeat hamlet
I would think wagons are going to come later
neon python
Thanks that’s a good idea
upbeat hamlet
or at least the ability to own one
bright forge
I’m excited to own draft horses again for a carriage
wise jewel
They're already confirmed because hackers data mined the companion app and found place holders for wagons and properties
neon python
Yep
upbeat hamlet
code can be changed
wise jewel
Apparently the wagons are 500 and the properties are 1000
upbeat hamlet
properties I can believe because I seen them in the game already
neon python
I think they’ll do the properties. They did it with GTAO I don’t see why they wouldn’t incorporate it
upbeat hamlet
way too cheap
neon python
I’ve also seen flyers in Rhodes for real estate coming soon
wise jewel
Lmao owning the Braithwaite Manor would be cool
upbeat hamlet
wagons are going to be way more than $500
bright forge
Yea that’s a bargain
vagrant basin
Hope whatever you load into the wagon stays there, like a mobile stash
bright forge
Well you’re going to have to buy the horses on top of the wagon
Plus their stable fees
summer dagger
Am not home to check the settings myself, does anyone know it there is an option to disable the player kill feed?
wise jewel
Gonna be a bitch to stable
summer dagger
If that option exists gonna start organizing a thing with my friends before I get home from work 
neon python
@summer dagger I don’t think so
wise jewel
It probably exists in the hud settings
summer dagger
That sucks, murder mystery in braithwait manor would be much fun
summer dagger
Need to be able to disable kill feed and minimap so the killer isnt instantly identified
neon python
Right
summer dagger
Know you can disable minimap already but kill feed not sure
Hide and seek in Blackwater would also be fun, when you get caught fish for sturgeon until next round
neon python
I really think they need to rethink how they do enemy dots on your radar it’s wayyyyy too easy
summer dagger
If anyone is currently in game and wants to poke around settings to see it disable kill feed is a thing I would appreciate you would be easier to start organizing friendo event now instead of when I get home to check myself and waiting with thumb up arse for responses
neon python
I think they need to re-introduce wanted level bounties to raise the stakes on player killing griefing and make it harder to find killers when people actually do PK like making them a red “cloud” on your map instead of a specific dot
That would bring such a cool dynamic to the game
summer dagger
Money too time consuming to get thatd be real annoying like
neon python
But what if you got paid for taking out wanted players? @summer dagger
upbeat hamlet
no that kill cam is only for story mode
summer dagger
Game doing a real good job of shooting itself in the foot as is @neon python your just replacing its cattleman with a sawn off doing things like that
wise jewel
I might try the sawed off because I've been dual wielding German iron ever since I got level 35
rare minnow
I honestly wish i could go back to single side arm
neon python
I just think that in order to expand, they’re going to have to go deeper into realism, not wider into craziness. Gta could introduce faster cars, jets, tanks and all that stuff. But red dead really is limited in what it can bring in. Instead I think they should and will focus on raising the detail and the realism as much as they can while keeping it “fun”
The only way they’d be able to bring in crazier weapons and stuff is by going steampunk
I hope they introduce hot air balloons
We know they’re in the game, it’s be rad to have a little station at your property or camp to take off from
@rare minnow can’t you unequip your secondary holster in the gun equipment section of your wardrobe?
summer dagger
just pull out one side arm?...
Keep secondary on you to make it longer before reload
👀
bright forge
They could always turn on the crazy with s different mode brought on by an expansion
cowboys vs aliens
And yea I have a sawed off and a cattleman but only ever draw one at a time
summer dagger
That's a cheeky idea @bright forge
bright forge
Plus I feel like the cattleman is more accurate when you’re single handing it
I’ve domed people from crazy far out and now that I have explosive rounds it’s just almost not fair
wise jewel
I just use the most expensive in each weapon class to flex on griefers
bright forge
Lol I love how this games weapons are balanced
Sure the flashy expensive guns are flashy
But they have their drawbacks also. There is no one “meta” gun
Just one that’s suits your play style
pulsar siren
It's so difficult to level up
rare minnow
Cattleman is def me
bright forge
Just play showdowns James
wise jewel
I'm quite slow and mythodical but when I need to engage in fast paced shootouts I use my mausers and semi auto shotgun but when it isn't intense combat I use the Litchfield
pulsar siren
Ouch
bright forge
I gain about a level an hour in showdowns
pulsar siren
Honestly the grind IS fun but I have other stuff I need to do and can't be online all day
I've never seen anything like it tho
bright forge
If it were any less people would scream “ I have nothing left to do I have everything there is no content!!!”
bright forge
Games in beta
pulsar siren
Characters might be reset if a huge bug happens tho
Seems kinda risky spending hours upon hours for a potential reset
bright forge
That won’t happen
wise jewel
I'm just dunking on fools in showdowns or smoking cigars in the expensive Saint Denis saloon with the money I earned from the very same showdown
upbeat hamlet
@bright forge if people didnt exploit so much they would have things to do
not our fault the spend every waking moment on the game and get everything in a week
bright forge
Yea I have no sympathy for people who exploit their way to the end of the game
pulsar siren
I'm not gonna exploit
wise jewel
Good
wise jewel
I'm on level 48
upbeat hamlet
I would do showdowns as I do really like the capture territory mode
wise jewel
I have an ace shooter buddy that's level 130
bright forge
Even without banning being a possibility I just think is terribly boring to use an exploit to get through the game. I bought the game to play what the game offers. Not min max my grind so that I get bored
rare minnow
I love doing hideouts, but they seem sparse
bright forge
Just make sure you vote at the end of round screen
upbeat hamlet
@bright forge people do the same with microtransactions...
spend a shit ton and skip the grind then complain there isnt any content
wise jewel
I've been getting alot more treasure maps from hideouts. For me it's like a 1/3 chance I get a map
upbeat hamlet
@bright forge thats a crap shoot most of the time
bright forge
Well that’s their choice. If you want to bypass the grind with real money that’s fine. It’s not an exploit
upbeat hamlet
@bright forge yes but they complain all the same
bright forge
No it has nothing to do with what game comes next. But rather the data being collected about what people are enjoying which will impact how they change showdowns as the development progresses
pulsar siren
@bright forge I play this game to mess around in bars and stiff
Had game for 3 weeks and only level 12
bright forge
Well that’s your own fault then. Can’t really complain about not leveling up when you aren’t doing the things to level up
pulsar siren
I did on my other character which was level 15
upbeat hamlet
I mainly explore the map and loot houses
pulsar siren
But I deleted it for a female charactern
upbeat hamlet
or do stranger missions
bright forge
Even doing stranger missions the right way will net you a level every hour and a half or so
pulsar siren
Stranger missions are the best
Wait till the last min
Turn it in
Boom easy 600 xp ish
wise jewel
Again. Because they're expensive
wise jewel
Appaloosias are underrated
You can find them in Big valley
The border with the grizzlies
They're like a jacked up missouri foxtrotter
And missouri foxtrotters are my favourite starting horse

Hey everyone, so I do not know many people who play Red Dead Online and many are busy with school. However, I was looking for people to play Red Dead Online with and possibly play as a crew/gang/posse/outlaw gang.
We could do the actual missions and other role-play activities and really make the full use of the Red Dead Online world.
I am in the Eastern Time Zone and on weekdays I can usually play from the evening time till night time (I cannot play at night on tuesdays and thursdays however). And on weekends I can play pretty much all day.
So if you could please leave your PSNs or Xbox Gamertags and the time zone you play in, I would really appreciate it.
Looking forward to it, fellow outlaws. 😄
Both my PSN and Gamertag is: Uwastoya
wise jewel
Go to #gang-recruitment-ps or lfg @marsh dirge
marsh dirge
Okk thanks!

Dapple paint foxtrotter is prettiest horse in the game

@wise jewel gave me an idea for a build while I was working mixed with what I saw someone doing last night
marsh dirge
Wow! Thanks u Spicy Venom Snake
summer dagger
Dual mauser dandy build, slow and steady, winning streak, strange medicine and never without one
wise jewel
Lemme hear it
summer dagger
Hip fire daul mauser rush ppl
wise jewel
Damn that's actually my build
Don't know if I have strange medicine though
Can't remember my second passice
What I sometimes do is go full autismo and rush people with a semi shotgun and explosive rounds
Gives them a big bamboozle
summer dagger
Strange medicine because if you're shooting body shots you'll be healing a lot rapid fire
While tanking
So probably could negate most damage coming in
Especially with never without one
Could swap out strange medicine with two things tho
Either peak condition since you dont run while sns, or eye for an eye
Corcano crack shot build: paint it black, winning streak, eye for an eye and landon's patience
pulsar siren
Wish all exploiters would be banned but then the games population will decrease majorly
wise jewel
There would be no way
It's like the criminal paradox
You catch a criminal and another, badder, meaner one pops up
bright forge
There’s always a bigger fish
summer dagger
would probably be banned for clothing glitch
wise jewel
Doubt it because it doesn't disadvantage players or give the abuser a leg up
summer dagger
But R* never figured out how to ban people for glitching in the heist dufflebag and police uniform and I did both of those so they probably will never figure it out
(In gta)
Best outfit=police uniform(with no pants), red and black heart boxers, dufflebag from heists and raccoon mask
just saying
tired oar
I just started online should I do the story online stuff to level up or what
tired oar
What do I get from doing it
summer dagger
Showdown series my favorite(pvp) repeat story, stranger missions
Quite a bit of money for initial completion and decent exp
tired oar
Okay
dense hollow
@summer dagger why would you run paint with carcano?
I didn’t think you could paint while scoped
summer dagger
In story you can, if you cant online that's silly
rare minnow
They just move so fast online, its why i hate paint
upbeat hamlet
online pvp is a chicken dance
third person games are always like that
well any pvp game really
always the chicken dance
moving erratically helps people dodge, but its completely pointless in a game with auto aim
all you have to do is take a second to drop lock then relock back on
and especially with the god mode aim of dead eye
its even more of a joke
strong grotto
I found a new money glitch on red Dead online if anyone what's to know pm me :)
strong grotto
That's fine lol
winged tiger
is the thing where the longer you take o an strangwr mission the more rewards u get?
stranger*
is that still a thing
upbeat hamlet
yes
upbeat hamlet
rockstar logic...
winged tiger
lol
jagged glacier
Yeah that's so dumb.
bright forge
My favorite stranger mission I ever did ya and another posse fought over a bear pelt until the timer was down to 10 seconds
Their assumption is if you take a long time you had a harder time with the mission
Hence a greater reward
jagged glacier
You should get more if you complete a mission faster. Even showdowns when you join late and still catch up and win, you get poor rewards. That's dumb
bright forge
But unfortunately no one really tries to stop people doing stranger missions so you just end up running out the clock
upbeat hamlet
they are idiots to think that
most reason people dont trry to stop others doing stranger missions is because they are to far away
bright forge
I don’t think you should really get a big reward if you’re able to just breeze through a mission Unopposed
upbeat hamlet
the missions are not hard in the first place
winged tiger
you don’t get a big reward if you stop people doing stranger missions
that’s why no one does it
upbeat hamlet
especially with the god mode auto aim of dead eye
jagged glacier
It should be fixed reward with a bonus if you complete fast and/or defend yourself from other players
winged tiger
you get like half of what the mission gives which is like nothing
bright forge
There is an achievement for stopping stranger missions
upbeat hamlet
I can pop a snake oil and knock 16 enemies in seconds
winged tiger
still
upbeat hamlet
its stupid easy
bright forge
Plus it’s fun
winged tiger
snake oils are useless to me
upbeat hamlet
what?
upbeat hamlet
why?
winged tiger
deadeye is literally so useless to me too
upbeat hamlet
lol WTF?
dense hollow
Who’s on Xbox and playing?
winged tiger
I’ve never used it in online
upbeat hamlet
lol you are mission out
bright forge
He’s using the wrong dead eye and doesn’t understand its mechanics
winged tiger
nah
upbeat hamlet
well yeah...
winged tiger
I understand the mechanics, can’t think of them from the top of my head tho
but I just never use it
bright forge
No circle close time. Able to see enemies through bloom effects dust and lighting
winged tiger
ik
bright forge
And I feel like it makes the headshot box bigger
winged tiger
that doesn’t seem helpful for me anyway
upbeat hamlet
dead eye is 100% accuracy and with slow and steady you cant get headshot and take a ton of damage to die
bright forge
It’s more forgiving when it comes to landing shots
jagged glacier
If anything Dead Eye, and specifically the abilities, are too OP
upbeat hamlet
deadeye with unblinking eye and slow and steady and peak condition
winged tiger
I’m really not bothered to press down both buttons
upbeat hamlet
god mode
bright forge
You only have to press down the right stick
bright forge
Do you even know how to deadeye?
winged tiger
I’d rather aim
upbeat hamlet
still what?
winged tiger
yes lmao
bright forge
Jebus
winged tiger
I haven’t played any games in weeks
upbeat hamlet
lol you try to aim and you will be destroyed in close combat
bright forge
You still have to aim with dead eye
bright forge
It’s not like it is in single player
upbeat hamlet
no you dont have to aim
winged tiger
if they’re close aim isn’t a problem
upbeat hamlet
lol hahahah!
winged tiger
Stupid
bright forge
No one uses the dead eye where you paint targets
upbeat hamlet
its a button press and it snaps to them
upbeat hamlet
then just flick the stick up and boom! headshot
bright forge
Yea it’s part of the game
winged tiger
???
bright forge
Other games give you auto aim by making hit boxes and hip scan and auto lock too.
winged tiger
cool but I hardly ever miss anyway
upbeat hamlet
@bright forge other console games maybe...
woeful ridge
I guess they never miss huh
upbeat hamlet
you dont see auto aim on pc
bright forge
Ok but how is that relevant
Red dead is a console game
You’re comparing it to a different standard
upbeat hamlet
stupid if you ask me no pc game
dense hollow
It will be PC eventually
bright forge
They have to make sure the game is really locked down as far as hacking is concerned before they can do a pc release
dense hollow
Just about every game uses aim assist
dense hollow
Which is essentially the same thing
upbeat hamlet
lol lockd down hacking... HAHAHA!!!
bright forge
It would of been so much worse if they just released it right away
upbeat hamlet
so console is the test bed
dense hollow
And people complain that Auto lock is trash because they’re slower on the trigger than the one that just killed them
upbeat hamlet
auto locking is trash because it takes the skill out of aiming
and turns it into a button push
dense hollow
That argument is trash
dense hollow
Because everyone has it
dense hollow
Unless they make free aim lobbies then this whole argument is bleh
And not consoles
upbeat hamlet
controller inputs are not as precise as a mouse and keyboard
dense hollow
R* makes the only game that employs the use of auto lock
upbeat hamlet
most other games have a bit of aim snapping built in on console
because of the tendency of the controller to over correct
its no where near as precise and exact as a mouse is
never will be
specially with custom mice with super high dpi settings
but hey its fine dude I dont care
remove the dots in free roam and we are good... its that or make being an outlaw a lot harder like it was back in the west
make honor mean something
make it harder to go from being an outlaw to an honorable person
honor should be something hard to achieve, but being an outlaw easy since its not hard hurting others
it would also give people reason to buy microtransaction to pay gold to adjust their honor if they dont want to grind it up
you would stop a lot of the idiotic griefing and only those that truly want to be outlaws would keep their honor low
bright forge
You take the dots away it would be soooo much worse
dense hollow
I agree also that dots should absolutely be taken away
upbeat hamlet
then make honor mean something
dense hollow
If dots should be used it should ONLY be used on posse leaders
upbeat hamlet
because they are not being outlaws?
dense hollow
Idk about that but I do think honor should be employed a bit better
there should be strict bonuses for both
upbeat hamlet
make players with the highest honor not have dots on the map
dense hollow
Maybe sales prices on goods are slightly better for honorable players and dishonorable get better drops on loot for instance
upbeat hamlet
get it any lower and you show up
yeah make being a outlaw benefit you more in combat
more loot and ammo
upbeat hamlet
or more rewards when doing things such as killing outlaws or bandits
dense hollow
Well they’d actually have to make rewards for that
upbeat hamlet
can be cash
dense hollow
Tbh I was hoping for legit bounty hunting
upbeat hamlet
outlaws get things like tonics, loot, ammo and such
dense hollow
Tags some griefer with a bounty
upbeat hamlet
more things to keep them going
dense hollow
And you can kill or capture
dense hollow
Let the game do it
upbeat hamlet
guess it would be interesting to see
dense hollow
We shouldn’t get the ability to post a bounty
And if we do then it’s us that pays up
upbeat hamlet
would be hard to capture a person as breaking out of a hogtie isnt hard
dense hollow
That’s the thing
If you have a bounty
That gets turned off
Can’t choose to die or escape
Just along for the ride
There’ll be a timer of course
upbeat hamlet
yeah but then people would just run up to you then and tackle
dense hollow
That’s the point
upbeat hamlet
throwing the rope is out of the question
upbeat hamlet
honor should be reflected in cities and towns too
wanted posters or the police or law recognizing you
just like it does offline
dense hollow
Agreed
upbeat hamlet
they can do a lot to make both sides of the fence fun and interesting
will they do it?? I am hopeful, but also I know what their main goal is
microtransactions
so honestly I am just doubtful its going to pan out very well later... I guess only time will tell
dense hollow
i'm holding off mostly for the next content patch
i'm looking to see if what they do is substantial
that'll basically show me the direction the're heading
@tulip hornet @supple hare @versed badger where you fools at?
dense hollow
yeah, chicky just left so i get to play now lol

Ooo I don’t think I did my level 90 one yet
marsh dirge
I still have 8 more of the 21 left
bright forge
You really had those piled up
marsh dirge
So imma make around a total of $2100
upbeat hamlet
what you get a treasure map for each level?
marsh dirge
Every 5
bright forge
Nice be able to buy like 2 top end pamphlets
upbeat hamlet
ah
bright forge
It’s like you never went and got one ever I guess
That’s like all the treasure maps from getting to level 105
patent gazelleBOT
marsh dirge
I’m sitting on $2700
bright forge
I’m basically broke
dense hollow
holy crap you never did your treasure maps? lol
marsh dirge
Nope
dense hollow
lol and you have 21?
marsh dirge
I’m totaling the amounts atm
bright forge
I’ve bought 3 expensive pamphlets as my last 3 purchases. I’m going to have dynamite arrows tonight
marsh dirge
Ya I have 21
mellow falcon
dense hollow
will be a few bars easily
i can't remember what the gold amounts are
but they range maybe between .15-.7 a map
@bright forge i'd rather have incendiary buckshot and dynamite rounds tbh
bright forge
I have those already
I have the buckshot which is fucking AWESOME
The explosive express rounds with are AWESOME
And tonight I’ll have the dynamite arrows
Which I am super pumped about
upbeat hamlet
seems like those ammo types are a bit op
upbeat hamlet
what if you keep materials on hand?
you still need a camp fire to make them?
so they are pretty much the rocket launcher in RDO
except instant hit
upbeat hamlet
so how many can you really carry then?
median pawn
The voice actor for jack is really bad
upbeat hamlet
for who?
summer dagger
Explosive rounds for normal guns are pretty much like the explosive shells out of the apc or explosive shotty in gta right? Very small aoe but great impact damage? Like really only gonna hit the target and maybe minimal aoe
If I'm right would make the dynamite arrows closest thing to red dead rpg
summer dagger
Rip

@dense hollow welcome to online gaming
supple frigate
Anyone wanna make a posse? Xbox one, do missions or whatever else
rare minnow
@dense hollowthats good to know, i thought all the morons were on ps4
lucid pelican
@supple frigate go to your platorms LFG
tardy stratus
Hey folks trying to get a gauge of things, how far off is RDO after 1.5 months compared to GTA Online after its first 1.5 months?
Trying to manage expectations for myself
summer dagger
Is fun game, especially if you're new. Endgame a little lacking, not a tonne of things to spend your money on(except cards which cost a second mortgage)
People kill each other about as often as gta servers in the first two years(I hear the free world pvp has chilled out a bit nowadays on gta)
Actual builds are a fun new concept to rockstar online games
Though the variety isnt as great as it could be
tardy stratus
Yeah I was kind of hoping for it to be more like Red Dead the MMO, so to speak, but it seems the living world just isn’t there yet, not sure if it ever will be
summer dagger
It probably will be rockstar seems to want to make this their next gta style endeavor with its online
Just took that a while to take off too
dense hollow
it would be if their mission system was procedural
summer dagger
The game as we know it likely wont be the same in a year if they do follow through with their plans to keep improving it
upbeat hamlet
I bet they are going to mess it up by heavily frontloading everything with microtransactions
dense hollow
i mean that's about it, microtransactions are complete
summer dagger
Bungie did that and their game and stocks crashed and they got spanked on the bottom until they fixed their sh** with d2
dense hollow
idunno what more people think they're gona do with them.
summer dagger
Rockstar seems a bit smarter than bungie
People will outrage and it probably wont be as big a stink as we think
upbeat hamlet
@summer dagger D2 was a massive faliure
dense hollow
every posse ive joined in the last 20 min has had an AFK lead lol
summer dagger
Year 2 d2 actually has pretty good ratings now, it's how d1 started off albeit not as bad because it was a new and exciting concept then
upbeat hamlet
year 2 wasnt that good
summer dagger
I'm just being realistic, if they follow through with plans to make this game better, and even if they front load microtransactions as long as the community reacts accordingly it will likely be a much better experience in the future and has genuine potential
It's still a great game now but it does have its flaws
upbeat hamlet
heavily front loading will screw over people not wanting to pay to play
since the grind is that much more harder for them
summer dagger
And they seem to be taking a lot of the advice of their forums people
upbeat hamlet
hopefully so
summer dagger
So as I said if their community reacts accordingly
They will likely have no choice but to fix those issues if they arise too
upbeat hamlet
still now missions are bleh... and we are lacking so much
dont even have card games
dense hollow
ideally gambling will be in the next patch
it would be a huge mistake if they don't put that in
upbeat hamlet
I want to rent a bath and have a whores boobs in my face
tardy stratus
Isn’t the gambling thing complicated by gambling laws?
upbeat hamlet
its only an issue if you win real money
tardy stratus
Or is that only if it involves real money?
summer dagger
