Absolutely
There's a 45 gold paywall we all have to invest in if we want to start these jobs.
45 gold is not an issue, but this is where the microtransactions are gonna start rolling in
Samezies
But anyone with half a brain would have been playing for those extra gold weeks
True dat
45 gold should be near a pittance
But there will be a ton of newbies who don't have anything, so...
R* is gonna make some money
Good for them lol
MTX doesn’t concern me in the least
I know I’ve given R* my fair share
It’s not a wall
It’s just a gap
Farm out the 45g if you don’t have the $18
If you do, enjoy the bridge
You can't spend Red Dead dollars to start the jobs, you're forced to spend gold
And you can earn gold in game by doing dailies
IK, and I'm just trying to point it out
Plenty of people have hundreds over the last few weeks abusing the multiplier
Not spending a single penny
I have 700 gold 
Exactly lol
So Summer Update?
@fickle lava September 10
Any news on the summer update?
Check #announcements
And click the link
Mark September 10 on your calendars, we are going to FINALLY have an update
An update that's actually worth a damn...for once
This update will make everyone with less than 60k broke
Lol wut
I guess that all depends on how much stuff you give a shit about from it.
We have a new currency to grind too

^
Yea I don’t see any $$ cost on these upgrades
Likely they’ll all be buyable with gold as wel
Which will be good for a lot people
If they do cost the standard currencies
But it looks like these are locked to tokens as far as I can tell
I hope they let you pick and choose what upgrades to buy and when
Doubtful but if you can hoard them until the thing you want then I’d be very happy about that
I think the ideal thing will likely be to work on trading with a posse, if you have peeps you normally play with
Just stack pelts in your horse till you can’t anymore
And take them in
I having a bounty of $5 5 different 7 man posse charge you with slippery bastard with reinforced lasso as bounty hunters

All lvl 250+
HYPED
@dense hollow I think the 15 gold is the only cost of the update
They said you get tokens for upgrades
Which I assume is how you unlock the new stuff
Most likely
Man I can't believe ppl are defending the grind and the MTX so hard
This update isn't really formulated to be pay to win
It looks like a grind to unlock
Let’s hope they fix the economy
Correction : it is a grind to unlock
The question is: how much grinding is required to unlock everything???

Charging 45 gold upfront to play the roles is shit
Did you do your Daily Challenges?
Why is that a problem?
Same with your camp a posse raiding camp killing crips and your dog only to get a quarter
^
Dailies suck they're not fun
At least I did, and with the 2.5x multiplier I got 700 gold
Go to. A bar and order drinks 5 times woohoo
700 gold I say!
Bottom line is it's not fun
Grind = reward
Right but fun = fun
Not fun is on you, just don’t complain about nonsense
Dutch would be so proud of me 😅
No trade-off required
I TOLD YOU PEOPLE WILL COMPLAIN ABOUT EVERYTHING COSTING GOLD HAHAHAH YOU MISSED OUT ON 140 GOLD BARS PIN THIS LOL
+1 dab for the sadness
I'm only having to pay 15 bars lol
And not “engaging and fun gameplay”
And that's because I'm on xbox
Grinding can be fun if the gameplay loop is fun
I just feel so limited all the time online
Grinding is never fun lol
Granted, RDO is grindy af and R* left us (players) with 2 choices:
- Grind the fuck out of the game
OR - Pay real money to get gold bars
You're the kind guy that gets upset when you get a racing games and you don't have all the cars at the start of the game huh?
Weapons are level locked so I have to spend gold on them to be able to hunt
Maybe mario kart is more your speed
Same with fishing poles and shit
Massive 🇴 🇴 🇫
And then I get "hahaha how do u not have 45 gold"
They hand it out like candy
And the gold grind is stupid easy
^
Literally a few things in game
@cerulean wharf these guy never got to experience Rdo beta kinda pathetic
Get done in about 20min
"Rockstar is still rewarding mediocrity."
- WindMaze
@upper tundra

I got free gold with 3 month pan had to spend all of it on basic shot because I don't wanna grind for 15 hours to be able to just fish and hunt
You literally get a rod at level 14
I was in the beta
That took maybe 5 hours
Everyone was -_- lol
Yeah and I wanted it at level 1
Well too bad
You really think a fuckin fishing pole should be level locked?
If you want instant gratification go play snoopys grand adventure
You said you want everything umlocked at lvl 1
I said I want to be able to fish and hunt at level 1
And my complaint isn't pay to win it's pay to play at all
Old games are the best games 👌
Microtransactions were non-existent back in those days
Or wait til 14
Or grind
You don't need a rod to fish
^
Get yourself some dynamite
Lmao
Get a varmint rifle
I use a Varmint rifle and a bow to fish
Or chase the fish out
And fish all you want
RDO is not going to be like GTA5 online where you get everything and not put effort in
RP at 14
@upper tundra Unless you buy a fuck ton of Shark cards
Rp yourself some experience
Getting level 14 is like <5 hours of playing the game
That's sad
Is 5 hours too much time for you?
Because also the servers suck and I get kicked out of missions and seasions
Online has been out for 9 whole months
No I probably spent 16 this weekend playing story mode lol

And you're complaining about something that takes 5 hours
Yeah and I haven't played it cause it wasn't fun
I play pretty casually and I’m like 120
Hours
From doing a daily challenges I discovered cave paintings
Ah ok I'll check when I get home
Lol
Just double check your stats and play the game more often
You cant on ps4 but on the game you can
I only really play online if my friends are on that's the only way it's fun for me
Which for me is like 250 hours but actually its 800
And we get too caught up actually enjoying ourselves to go grind
Right...getting sidetracked 😒
So when I think of playing other times I don't because I can't do shit on my own lol
Happens all the time
Yesterday i was lagging out on my screen i was zooming around on the map and went under
Try to do shit on your own so you can take care of yourself with ease
My friend pov just saw me t-posing
Eh I just find single player so much more fulfilling on my own
Then once you have the bare minimum of resources, weapons, and equipment, you'll be fine
I wish she recorded it
I can't really get immersed online
Sp is only good the first play through
What you know almost all the random encounters and the story
Stopped in ch. 3 to do all the side stuff
Whats the best way to level up? Been doing showdowns but theyre boring i prefer the story missions
Bruh have you ever just walked around saint denis at night
My 2nd play through i found out a few things that i didnt know
Or night in the rain
Story Mode does have replayability, but it will die down because you will run out of interesting things to do
Like bruh I for real get fully immersed
Especially if you're an achievement hunter or a speedrunner
@vivid fulcrum play stanger mission wait till 30 seconds
I'll only progress once there's nothing left to do
Stuck on gambler 9
I hate dominos
At least you get those sweet sweet scent glands
And dont get me started on opossum
No you need it for the taxidermy side mission
I gave up because shity rng
Just ran a posse of 4 out of the server. Cant wait to bounty hunt!
Reinforced lasso will be fun
Omg I want my bolas
I like the fact players will be put in jail if captured
Yusss I like that as well
So many people are prolly going to rage quit if it happens to them 😂
Yup
Reinforced lasso with slippery bastard i demand a NERF
I'm high honor so I won't have to worry about hunters
Just sit up in the mountain, eating some stew with my dog
Post camp in Roanoke, sell goods, eats soup and chill with the dogs
My original character was design for a prospector miner
Man that change
Now he's a
Pimp/ serial killer
For a while in red dead I got so bored that I would run up and photograph people and run away
Show us your collection
Lawl
@gleaming cargo
I deleted them for horse ball pictures
Okay what horse had the biggest testicle @gleaming cargo
American thoroughbred in the desert
bruh collecting the 54 cards in gta online wasn't worth it
all of them for 15 gold bars
The hell
Pfft I'll do it for RDO cause why not
it is not that bad to do but it gets annoying if you miss 1
but in rdo you get the (I believe) collector's stuff for free instead of paying 15 gold bars
ONE MORE WEEK TILL MY BDSM FETISH
One more week to have pet doggos, bandoliers and satchels on my character, grinding this new blue currency thingy, and actually having something to do in RDO
Inb4 j stone finds a glitch
Inb4 people just grind everything in a week instead of spacing it out like a normal person then bitching and crying about having nothing to do
You can choose all of the 3
I was in J stone's discord for a bit
Only one more week until the usual suspects find something new to bitch about
The discord owner gave him the boot after J buddied up with some racist kid and was an asshole to his stream mods
The Bounty Hunter
Licensed Bounty Hunters can pick up work by visiting bounty boards near law offices, post offices and train stations across the states. There is no shortage of criminals to be dealt with, from lone petty thieves to notorious outlaws.

Sexy
No it's not
It's a bolas
Nice to know that you can use them on horseback. I wonder if Hangman will affect them
Shut up
Bounty Hunter Rank 12 will unlock the ability to take down other players with high bounties. The wanted player must evade (or surrender) within the set time and if caught, they’ll also be able to try and flee. Bring them in alive to be rewarded while the criminal serves ...

Why are you spamming links that a dedicated channel already has?
Im not
Im reposting
The Trader
Start a trading outpost with your trusted camp companion, Cripps.
With Cripps’ lifetime of experience and your skills at hunting and frontier security, you’ll have the perfect ingredients to develop a thriving business.
https://t.co/ZdhISTWsLX
131
Why though?
Because who the hell looks at #rockstar-games-social-media
Why you so bothered by it lol?
Once operational, you’ll provide Cripps with Materials through hunting. Bring in pristine pelts and carcasses for the best yields.
Watch for raids from bandits jealous of your flourishing business, or get yourself a camp dog who you can train to warn of incoming attacks.
Ok done
Take 2 done a big oof
Why release red dead’s update the week of one of the biggest games of the year, especially when you own both companies
You’re talking about bl3 right
Now imma be focusing on borderlands and have hardly any focus on leveling my rdo character’s roles except when friends aren’t on for borderlands
Yup
Even destiny pushed their dlc back to October
I’m going to choose to believe there were a lot of issues coding wise for the update so this was the most optimal time to drop it buuuuuut because this is Take 2 I might be giving them too much credit
Hence why I said something broke or went wrong during production of the update, especially with the two weeks of beta content returning, twice
Any new clothing?
Ok one thing that’s got me hyped is the new gun customization that’s been teased in the pics
Looks like new carvings and grip styles are coming
Nice
Lilith getting the date wrong on the "Summer" update

🇱 🇮 🇦 🇷
You also said September 2 and September 13
You are wrong no matter what you say
I only said August then September as a joke because of everyone bitching and crying about it. I never gave a date seriously 👀
Yes you did, and since Ash called you a sin, I'm giving myself 
Now that we have an official date, we can finally stop the bitching and crying...
...or are we?

Nope
People are gonna grind each role as fast as they can
Then cry about no content
Instead of taking time and enjoying it, people have to be like "skip, nownownow"
If they have a shit ton of gold to spend, that is
2,400+ gold
Only the filthy casuals, rich kids, and toxic piece-of-shit players will buy everything with gold and then complain once they have everything...if they actually play RDO
Disgusting
Can't just enjoy the game, people gotta buy everything first, then cry about not having anything to do
They want instant gratification

You will never satisfy people like that
"Those" people, to be specific
It's why I never bought shit early, I'd rather work for it then buy it early and have no motivation for it
Suit yourself. I'd rather get it early just to show off to other people (without spending gold, if possible) and get additional satisfaction by mixing and matching certain things together
But now, at rank 100+, I don't gotta worry about that
Torn between trader and bounty hunter

Both
Do both
You can do all three at the same time, it's not choose one and fuck off
👀
Oh wow
Yeah
You could do bounties, get bored, go trade stuff, get bored, go back or collect treasures
Time to get the gta5 cards
Bro I cant wait to have a lantern on my horse
Since n00bs and tryhards refuse to leave me alone, I feel like I could be one dank ass Bounty Hunter
You realise if someone shoots that bye bye your horse
But since I'm constantly hoarding loot and cooked 480 meats...I also want to be a Collector at the same time (which I could be)
🔥
Wind has a lot of cooked meat because he likes meat in his mouth knowing it'll always be there
Lawman role would be cool but I mean, that's kinda like the bounty hunter role when you think about it
@devout cliff Gordon Ramsay would be proud of me

At least they're fresh and they will never expire

I also have 30 crow carcasses, 10 perfect squirrel carcasses, and 10 perfect toads just in case I'm ever "low" on food
I'll kill your dog and run away in defensive mode and laugh at you @devout cliff
Brah they even the rdo update on gta5 loading acreen
Screen*
And in case I ever see PS4 Lilith again: "BE GONE XBOX THOT!!!"
Fun fact, that actually happened to me yesterday, by a rank 25, so I had to fuck him up
👀
Then he parleyed after a while and started giving me thumbs up because I wouldn't let him enter Valentine
You literally just stay in a city or town
And do nothing
But just wait till something happens
Meanwhile, I pick a vanilla flower and boom, instantly get blown up by a tryhard with explosive ammo
Me: 

I like watching stupid low levels try everyone to be badass and get fucked up
Then I get dragged into it when I'm just trying to watch the show
I’m stupid excited for the update. The online world will finally start to feel alive
You’ll get on and people will actually be doing shit instead of mass murder and griefing
Hopefully
I once was going against two posses of 7 that were beefing with each other in valentine
That was fun
I’m curios about the update to random events
I shot one guy that was choking another out, then shot the guy getting choked
I remember watching 3 low levels fight 3 other low levels at Annesburg. I sat in Defensive Mode watching the shitshow while eating food on that day.
Good times.

Right, but I can't think of any "safe" rooftops at Annesburg
I remember 2 horse carts that glitched didnt move i lit them on fire
And they didnt die but wailing in pain
I miss the beta
oh, a thought, since i'm watching deadwood: interested in seeing what clothing options there are, looking back at that over-the-shoulder garment, to make a deadwood wild bill hickok themed outfit
i wonder how many new hairstyles they're going to add based off that one bounty hunter picture, with the bounty thrown over the hunter's shoulder in the jail
i think that's one i'd use judging by the look of it
I haven't seen any unique hair styles or new facial appearances on the pics.
hold on a sec, lemme find it, i'll @ you in #red-dead-media
🆗
Any new/recycled clothes this week or same as last week?
Nothing but announcement for next week
@vital forge Nope, it's the same shit from last week. Expect dank ass clothes on September 10
Just got booted out of a session. I was doing just fine in a 5v1 until I had to reset my PS4 and my application

IP tracking confirmed
Well, gotta go get a VPN
That's disgusting 😂
But that's how you know you found someone that's crying so bad they DDoS you
They weren't talking trash in-game, but yeah...close enough
I'm so good at PvP that I now have to get booted out of sessions just to keep RDO balanced
WindMaze OP, plz nerf
Good thing I recorded it 👌 😉
Ah shit, you'll know who did it then you can join their session and do it again
LOL
Boo
Plan C
I remember some random guy in Defensive Mode watching the shitshow. I'm gonna ask him
Son of a bitch...he logged off

LOL nice
FFFFUUUUUUUUU (etc.)

OK, 2/5 of those scrubs are Twitch streamers...let me check the 2nd guy

Nope


They're all "appearing offline"
That makes it significantly harder for me to start Round 2 up
Final option: the posse leader
And...🤞
Nothing
FML 😔
I'm gonna have to declare GG, get rekt, and no reeeee
They outnumbered me 5 to 1 and still lost...I guess that'll be good enough for me
are ability cards still discounted?
I’m not sure but I’ll find out shortly if you’d still like @golden dew
that would be nice
thanks for checking
No problem mahn. ( said in a Jamaican accent like that guy from the movie Cool Runnings)
Why did I just randomly receive $250
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Literally was just looking in a catalogue and then 250 popped up in the top right for no reason not gonna complain just confused
That’s incredible
Yea I'm pretty happy
Yea just saw it when I restarted the game PlayStation really does have it much better then xbox
When will we be able to get the free bounty hunter class on twitch prime does anyone know? Can't see it on their yet
Works fine for me but yea it's always bene pretty broken

No thanks
I like my rockstar servers working 👀
Yeah you're right. I'd like to request you get tested first. :v(
I like free money
Same, that's why cougar and panther glitches are 
True, but I'm kinda surprised R* hasn't started resetting people's accounts
They haven't even started banning people either

R* probably forgot to equip the ban hammer in their inventory
Pretty sure they don't really give a fuck until it affects them, but even then, they didn't reset shit with the gold bar glitch. Just hotfixed it
Because they care more about money than the actual game
Maybe one day J Stone will find some game-breaking cougar glitch that R* will immediately get to work on and actually start patching...for once
Eh
Who knows?
I mean there was a treasure chest glitch where you can block it with a cart/wagon and keeping claiming the reward over and over
R* patched it in 4 hours once it became publicly known. Thanks J stone
Lol Playstation members get the butcher and $250
It's to make up for the shitty servers and blue screen crashes
^
$250 for that new hat with led lights
💩
Xbox gets nothing as usual lol
Both consoles are ass stop acting like one is vastly different lmao
@marsh dirge i mean PlayStation does have much better exclusives like god of war spider man the last of us, the kingdom hearts games before 3 not to mention special privileges on both call of duty and RDO
Spider man is overrated
And it’s not that many exclusives that are worth anything
Xbox has backwards compatibility and halo
If someone's gonna bring up exclusives, then you might as well throw out your PS4 and get a pc
Brutal
Story wise....
IT WAS GOOD
the story was good
firefight was also good
I didn’t have gold so I didn’t experience multi
I never played Xbox and I know Reach was good (and it still is)
The awkward moment when a rank 6 tries with you and doesn't know when to quit, despite eating shotguns and rolling block shots over and over
Speaking of a Rank 6...I met a Rank 6 today. He was a nice guy that just got RDR2 and he wanted someone to hang out with.
He's also one of the few players that DID NOT immediately shoot me on sight 👏 👏 👏
God I hope more people are like that when they get something to do with the next update
🤞
IKR
Low levels who start shit on RDO remind me of the kids who buy shark cards on GTA and fly around on flying bikes

"the ability to redesign your character’s appearance without resetting progress"
yesssss
finally i can stop clipping through my belt
I sent him a friend request, gave him a bunch of free perfect carcasses, told him about how RDO works, gave him some advice, and helped him beat some low level bully up.
I now have someone who will back me up against trigger-happy randoms (and vice versa).
Why can't I meet some more friendly people like him?

Media in #red-dead-media #general-media only
👀
And there's media channels for media so....
It is ok brudda. A simple mistake.
Now put it in media, or I will devour the foreskin on your penis.
Good boy.
I don't believe anything changed from the past two weeks so everything that's been on sale is still going
oh yep, ability cards are still reduced 😄
Might have to make a comeback, haven't played RDO in months
Miss gaming with the boys
Oh fr
Hey @sleek imp, c'mere. Word 'round is you was lookin' fer some good huntin'? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14C0tiCmQfnc0mjo0Jky63C08zHWfEFPncsGYa7nCJX4
How hard is it to get the 51 cards in GTA V?
Not hard since there's already a map with their locations
There are also YouTube videos mapping their locations as well.
Ye, it’s fairly easy
Just a little time consuming
I did it on my mk2 so I would suggest doing the same or using a heli. I feel like it’s faster
I used my Oppressor Mk II in Oppressor Mk II Online just to find all 54 cards.
I used the buzzard
PS4 gets the butcher table free 
👌
R* and Sony gave Microsoft another middle finger...again. 
I heard you guys got some money bonus the other day too
Yup
I like free anything

A trailer just came out
👀
Fuck fuck fuck
Send the link to #red-dead-media NOW!!!
Gotta watch it
IKR
It took R* 9 months to figure out how to make a proper update, but better late than never
At the very least
All of their updates are massive
I wished they’d work on a smaller scale
Do fixes more frequently
True, but they need money
Add smaller things more regularly and then put in the updates
I mean they could have added half this shit
Big updates and free DLCs are the way to go
🤞
Looks noice
I’ll actually want to play
I was debating whether or not it would even interest me at this point
Yea it looks pretty damn exciting
All they need to do now
Is add in the extra mini games, increase the bet pot, and allow you to trade items and money with players
This update is all the more reason to add trading
They should
Just the cash
No gold
This game has tons of RP value as it is
But imagine if you get a posse together to escort a caravan
Or to defend someone hunting
Fee for service
Maybe you wana put out a hit on someone who was griefing you earlier
Just a nice touch
GTA has that whole contact thing
They might do the hit thing
Should definitely be a thing in RDO
Yeah like gtas bounties
Or call Lamar to mug another player
Lol yesss
Would be cool if you could actually hold someone up
Make hem pay you to be left alone
Can limit the trade cap too
No more than like $20 a transfer
And also limit the number of transfers in any given time frame
I mean people have tens of thousands in cash due to exploits
Give them something to spend it on lol
It doesn’t look like much of this is gona cost at $$
A lot of the unlocks require tokens
Unless of course you unlock with a token and buy with cash
Exactly
9 new cards is around 9k right there 
$8,100 @glossy yoke
Did they show the cards yet?
I’m pretty interested in what kinds of cards they’ll be releasing. I’m sure most will be utility and defensive. Probably just one deadeye card
2 different eagle eye cards
I hope they make the hat card great again
One for bounty hunter and the collector
And nah eagle eye would be a waste of a slot lets be real
But you can run with egale eye active
And this helps in yhe grand scheme of online how? Lol
Im js it would be a waste seeing as how we barely use eagle eye as it is. And im pretty sure those were said to be skills from the roles
Wait rdr2 getting a battlepass? 😑
No
So wtf is the outlaw pass?
Eagle eye will be good for bounty hunters when tracking them
Are you able to change your appearance?
Huh?
RDO's Outlaw Pass is similar to a Season Pass, but you actually get stuff for having it.
Change my mind.
Gold!? 😡
I'm jk . That's good 😁 i got like 160 gold
Brah dont complain r* gave us 210 gold these past 3 weeks
This week and the past two
Hey
How much do you guys think i should grind for the patch
Like how much money should i get
50k
as much as possible
if they even add just 4 cards that's $3,600 just to max those out potentially
Hey guys is any interestined in joining an RP crew
or should I ask that on a different channel
?
check the LFG channels
specifically for your console
if you haven't chosen a console please see #550659240633827329
Whoever designed it so crews can join into free roam events needs to be shot literally played a game of fools gold with 6 people camping the two armours
FACTS
True dat
True and yeah that's pretty true that's true and yeah that's true that's true that's true that's pretty true that's pretty true I mean that's true yeah that's true that's true that's fucking true amm that's how it is dude
I'm worried this won't be enough :(
It won't
Ur bent
We all better start saving up
💵
Well didn't R* say the economy will improve?
Don't worry we'll get try hards server jumping to claim bounties
Please increase the prices to animals
Like how it originally was
The way it is now makes sense.
When you skin them, you take away the pelt, meats or teeth. It makes sense that the skinned carcass would be less
But i miss skining the carcass and still get the same price
A perfect buck being skined was 10 now its r
5*

I also miss the horses from hell
I already predicted that the "Summer" update will cost anywhere from $5K to $20K.
While this is a major update, this isn't as massive as some claim it to be.
Tokens
Yeah, IK. We're not getting a shit ton of content (like another game's worth of things to do), but we are getting something that's actually worth a damn.
I deadass am considering selling the last stash of xanax I have for gold lmao. 🙃
What you mean that pink big feather hat that we got wasn't important
I mean it's one of my favorite hats.
I just wish I could have the option of not wearing pants.
The size of the update (the quantity of things) we're going to get is small compared to expansion packs
I mean comparing Rockstar updates to expansion packs is a bit generous.
It's more like uh... when an MMO patches in a few extra dungeons and gear.
To fill the vod.
void
This update is clearly better than nothing, but it gives us something to do.
Because it's only going to last maybe a few months at the most.
Exactly
Once you have maxed out Bounty Hunters, Traders, and Collectors, then what?
Then you play other shit.
Bingo
A lot of stuff coming out this fall. A lot of not playing RDR2.
Such is the nature of things.
Rockstar needs a good system for adding interesting content in the down periods between updates.
Half Ass Dripfeeding
Good question.
I don't know what their definition is.
But I'm saying that they need something more than clothes and gamemodes no one wants.
Agreed.
They need to improve their half ass dripfeeding if they want to keep that shit up.
There's a lot of empty space in the map.
#Make Ambarino Worth My Damn Time Again
They could do big ass bandit encampments or something. Like with a shit ton of dudes with okay payout for doing it.
That burned out town could be something.
Have DLCs for Mexico, Guarma, and the Native-Americans at Wapiti
Or some epic event in a Free Roam session where you have to fight everyone in the session to claim a high value reward
An option to go to Guarma would be interesting but unlikely.
They need SOMETHING!!!
I'd like more free roam encounters where stealth is viable.
bandit camps are fucking psychic.
Shoot a dude off in the fucking distance by himself with an arrow and suddenly they know where you are.
I just wanna be a sneaky wood elf.
The bandits can telepathically communicate with each other and automatically know when one of their buddies has been silently murdered.
R* needs to improve stealth mechanics first before they add stealth missions in RDO.
I saw saw some gaming article that R* could add a Guarma dlc in the future
Or some island
There better be.
I want to have a perfect parrot carcass as a souvenir.
And a pet parrot too.
Because some Australia ERSB game rating had one from R* and it was named some island
Fuck it, my pet parrot will be my dog's assistant manager of Cripps Trading Company.

I desire to eat your pig.
We want Wilburwurst with white wine.
The trailer looks awesome Rockstar seems to be relying heavily on the bounty hunter cause it had more screen time then anything else collector had next to none
Man I look forward to the ball and chain I'm really hoping it works on players cause me and my crew joke around and the first thing I am doing is using it when there running on a roof
I can't wait to be like Jango/Boba Fett in 1899. 👌
As a sweaty PIB crutching batshit crazy ass philosophical war tactician with an analytical mindset, I'm gonna love being a badass bounty hunter.
Brah they just need to add white Calvary gloves
I want a bigger revolver
Sounds kinda weird to some people but I'd really prefer having a bigger revolver preferably a 5 cylinder with some bigger punch to it but smaller fire rate
A .45 colt?
A Raging Judge-like revolver?
I don't mind having a 5-shooter hand cannon, but damn.
Add this gun r*
Lol fucking wack
@cerulean wharf like a 500 mag but not as large of rounds and not as powerful or modern



anyone else keep getting dc'd? I thought the servers would be quite empty at this time
Nani
@manic python if you happen to find that camp location we spoke about before, could you let me know what camp area it’s set it. Was looking for it a bit yesterday, but the camp system has been feeling wonky
@dense hollow will do
Btw i feel bad for the people who spend alot of gold to customize thier guns only gone to waste because R* will add better customizations
Also when did R* gift me explosive reapter ammo
I can’t wait for bolas and reinforced lassos griefing is gonna be great 
God mode*
Outlaw pass?
Yup, gives you rewards now by leveling up. Costs 35 gold and ig you eventually get that gold back
One of the items is a rams skull decoration for your horse to wear on its head, which is pretty sweet
I’ll post a link in #red-dead-media
it sounds cool and i like that you can spend gold instead of using actual money
Wait i wonder do you still get stuff past lvl 100
Its probably going to be a bettter daily challenges
Why does my lock on not work properly in showdown against certain players?
They could be using slippery bastard
@marsh dirge where did you read this?
Nvm reading now lol
Holy crap that’s crazy
Hmmmm it’s only a month long
To get through 70 levels in that time for the rewards?
Bleh
Just read up on what that does
Why in the hell is that even allowed in showdown, Rockstar is such a joke good lord
To be fair, it also makes it so they can't autoaim as well, but you can work around by aiming then quicking activating it and shooting
Paint It Black > Slippery Bastard
Change my mind
My point is that cards shouldn't be activated or allowed in showdown if it's actually meant to be a showdown. Otherwise it's an unbalanced shitty version of team deathmatch
Git gud
Thats just two abilities
There's peak condition
Winning streak and unblinking eye
And many more
Watch the summer update trailer with paint it black
Its 10 times better
My point stands and your asinine response doesn't change anything.
@knotty arrow Ability cards shouldn't have existed in the first place. RDR1 never had them, and (IMO) RDR2 shouldn't have had them either.
The #1 reason why PvP is so unbalanced and shitty is because players use Auto Aim and/or Dead Eye to get headshots, which are 1 hit kills.
Slippery Bastard prevents enemy players from locking on to you, but you cannot lock on to them either. In addition, Dead Eye will drain at a higher rate than usual.
From a R* developer's perspective, Slippery Bastard was originally meant to be a defensive ability card. It sounds good on paper, but when it came to actual gameplay, Slippery Bastards were countered by people using Paint It Black.
However, since there are freeaimers and tryhards using Slippery Bastard in an aggressive way, PIB players have some difficulty fighting back...to a certain extent.
- If a PIB player can't freeaim (by marking targets with X's), then they will get rekt by Slippery Bastards. If they can (like myself for example), then they could stand a chance...but once again, to a certain extent.
- If a Slippery Bastard closes the distance on you with a shotgun, you're gonna die.

- If you keep your distance, you'll be fine.
I’m really hoping there’s gonna be a new revolver in the update and rockstar is just hiding it from us
They're adding new weapon customization, which is pretty much like getting a new weapon at this point.
Ye I’ve seen in the pics some new grips, engravings, wrap and painting but there’s a few iconic revolvers thatd be great additions to the game
They could add this, though.
any early thoughts on the outlaw pass?
Some dude dived into the way of my horse while I was in defensive mode and now my hostility has gone up. I legit haven't killed another player anywhere aside from showdown.
Hope they mess with that system a bit, because if your hostility goes up you're immediately top priority target for everyone in your area.
I mean, other than that you already have people who kill you when you’re doing fuck all except riding your horse or coming out of a store
I run into that all the time, constantly, at least once or more a day. Fully minding your own business and someone comes along that won’t allow that.
I think it’s mostly people with nothing better to do with their lives griefing until the update, then they’ll kick it into overdrive
Just pArlay
Just parTAY
jUsT pArLaY
as if I don’t already do that
Mostly I just up and go to a whole new session lately. Toss the whole thing out.
@manic python A nice solution would be to make the law op and make the punishments for getting killed/captured by the law really expensive. That would make shootouts with the law more fun for those who aren't griefing and would make griefers have nightmares about the law.
That’d be interesting to see
That’s stupid just learn how to pvp like wat 
Yes, of course! PVP with lock on aim! Pinnacle of competitive gameplay!
PVP is fine, but in towns it shouldn't be as prevalent. If you wanna shoot somebody in the middle of the forest, be my guest, but shooting people while they're just leaving a store. It gets annoying.
Parley and defensive
Yes, I know. But having massive shootouts in towns 24/7 is just not pleasant.
Thts the only thing there is to do till the update
Uhhh, grind for money and gold. Do stranger missions.
Ya no thanks
Do something that will benefit you instead of just being a dick and killing people for absolutely no reason. I enjoy the pvp in the game, but I always have to be in defensive whenever I go into towns. That shouldn't be how the game works.
I got 40k and 120 gold I couldn’t care enough
Why don't people who want pvp do the modes MADE FOR PVP

Do you have an answer for that? Just play the damn modes that are meant for it. Just annoying for those of us who haven't been grinding this bugged to shit game for the past 8 months
You gonna answer me? Why don't you play the modes meant for PVP?
The reason this game has had such a sharp decline in playerbase is because of people obsessed with the PVP in free roam. People just don't enjoy that. That's why I'm saying there should be a better law system in place.
Nah they just need to add free aim lobbies
What will that solve? It will get rid of people who are actually good at PVP and don't grief, but it will keep the players who are shit at PVP and do grief in the lock on lobbies.
Lol if u hate it so much don’t play the game
When did I say I hated it?
I hate the community
I don't hate the game
And I'm not saying I hate you, you're much better than the majority of the playerbase. If this was somebody else I would probably already have my DMs spammed with "kill yourself" or "I'm gonna hack you"
It just sucks seeing a game with so much potential being killed by its community.

To be fair, it's a waste of money and ammo to greif and shoot in free roam because you don't benefit shit
Unless it's a mission, hideout, hunting or the dynamic events, it's pointless
Exactly
If you want PvP, showdowns and eliminations
Griefing gets really expensive
I just wish the towns would be less chaotic shootouts.
Even if ur a broke boi like me with only 40k it’s still takes a toll
That's from buying ammo in bulk then having to waste it on some probable low level fuckboi thinking he's tough and cool by shooting anyone
Then you gotta fuck him up and rebuy ammo
Just sorta wondering, because I've recently gotten back into the game since the update was announced, what's the average level at this point?
Do showdowns still use your own ammo?
Eh
Depending on the showdown
Depends
Most, yes. The only one that doesn't is Name Your Weapon I believe
Do all ur dailies as well
I can't wait until they fix the fist fighting. So many desync issues with that. It's the only sort of pvp I'm good at lmao.
That's just the generic lag between players, it's the same with any other online game
Yeah, I know, but it could be fixed.
Maybe lag compensation would do the trick
Damn, now that I'm thinking about it the servers are gonna full on off themselves once the update comes out.
Mhm, prepare to be shot by the returning greifers
Ehhhh, I think that the people who stayed were the griefers
I think this update is gonna bring back friendly players because of the roleplay
And finally the griefers are gonna have something to do with their pitiful lives
They can finally do legal open world pvp with the bounty hunting of players with a bounty over 20 dollars
Most greifers I've found are all new and low level people so anyone that used to be one will end up coming back to do it more
