Why is it that rdo is so toxic most of the time
I’ve only ever found one person that actually was nice and didn’t kill me on the spot
I dunno man. The best time I ever had in RDO was when I accidentally got a private server full of animals.
Speaking of which, they fix that shit yet?
Oh nice. I can finally play again
So camps still suck huh
Idk, mine always spawns for me just fine 
Oh cool the whole game is still broken
I can’t do collector now cos it’s almost about to refresh
Wtf we Ain’t got no private servers yet
Anyone know what's going on with posse's and bounty hunter missions?
I NEED TO RUSH THE COLLECTOR SPAWNS SRE ENDING SOON
Why would you leave someone’s posse
The posse owner would be so upset if someone leaves
lol

Anyone solve the permanently malnourished/can't brush horse bug
Just bought one of the sale race horses for gold and I swear this thing is diseased lol
Can’t say I do. Never encountered a horse I couldn’t brush
Yeah I can't feed it out of malnourished, can't brush it, and loses all cores whenever I fast travel or flee it
Tried jumping into story missions but it's fucked up in there too lol
Well I can brush it but it doesn't get cleaned
Running through water doesn't clean it either
do u have another horse you could use for the time being?
Why would you want to be on an empty/private lobby
You literally might as well play singleplayer
Animals, Animals everywhere
Easy distant deliveries

Is RDO dead or something?
I have been playing for a while and couldn't find any player
Blips aren’t visible on the map anymore
There’s a list of players in the player menu though so you’ll know if you’re actually alone in the session
whats the fun of deliveries if you don't have any threat
@cloud nova i 200% agree with you
whats the fun of deliveries if you don't have any threat
@cloud nova +3000
I like grifers
I like money more

Then we destroy whatever city is nearby
so rdo is dead?
My camp on L location are pitched up in great plains, but itsnot there, its shows on top of tumbleweed, and i cant set in on plains because its on plains already
Cant, it marks only plains 😄
Restart the game?
already done
If you think rdo is dead go to st Denis
@kind folio go to st Denis
If you think it’s dead
Big Brain moment

It’s true st Denis has loads of players
Because it’s the first place you visit on rdo



wtf rockstar
why can I not make another character
how am I supposed to have my cowgirl waifu for laifu now
Use an alt account
I don't think that's possible for pc
Oh. Laughs in console

haha
I sold a whiskey set only made 160 dollars
thats more than i normally have
You don’t have 160 dollars??
Buy collector
i did
Then get some collectibles
i just mostly mess around with my buddies though
ill just start expanding in my bounty hnting
Best way to mess around and make money is moonshiner or trader
i need to get my friends to start doing buissness instead of just stealling wagons
Nope collector @buoyant sluice
...unless you want to mess around because trader and moonshiner are passive so you can mess around but make money while doing it @tough widget
collector and moonshiner are the most proffitable and bounty in my opinion is the most fun
You can kill other players heading to madam nazar
Lookin' fer the Madam? Check here
#624629540949590016
collector is the most brain dead, yet most lucrative.
you can also mess around as a collector ive stumbled upon so many terret cards
You can use the map on GitHub for all the collectibles
underscore dude be the who starts shit randomly when other players are minding their own business
aight im leaving see ya boahs
I’m not much in bounty or collector so I just go around hunting for trader. That’s not all messing around is lol. Robbing, stealing, hunting, fishing, etc. can’t all be done when collecting
Fr
See ya
Rockstar will probably patch it and make the collectibles spawn randomly because rn it’s kinda op because you don’t need to buy any maps
they did patch it, but we still ended up finding all of it
don't underestimate the power of the community.
What when did they patch it
they added in more cycles???
totally randomized
but the jeanropke map still came thru
They will probably bring in another patch and make the collectibles spawn different on other peoples client
Yeah the on,y thing they could do is add more cycles but we already have some so it’d be easy to sort out the rest of the cycles
the only reason they added in more cycles was because they didn't expect some players to be rich so fast
so they wanted to throw it off balance, so to speak.
but in the end? community came out on top.
Trust me you know how rockstar is like with easy money making
That’s more trouble then it’s worth. Millions of players and lots of coding. Not to mention the side of the update
Soon collector will probs be the most worst role for money making
Nah the community would revolt
Well it is op you can’t deny it
Once that happens and over half their players stop playing they’ll add it back
i don't need to trust you. just by looking at how R* patches money-making activities over actual technical issues
its kinda evident
All you have to do is just look at the map, go there boom loads
I’m not denying it
So soon collector will probs be the worst role money making
True but collector has been around for over half a year and they still haven’t done anything besides that one thing so I doubt they will
I'd also say very doubtful.. They would of done it already
you're going on about collector but also complain you have very little money, underscores
Same old shit lol
collector and the jeanropke map have been around for a while, they aren't going to change anything at this point. r* doesn't care enough to.
it is not op, i think you are just tossing that around
He just trying to get a reaction... 😂
ok mr emojis
but anyway, the actual definition of op: "Overpowered (often abbreviated to OP) is a common term referring to a perceived lack of game balance. It is often used when describing a specific class in an RPG, a specific faction in strategic games, or a specific tactic, ability, weapon or unit in various games."

Actually rockstar announced like a few weeks ago they are making collectibles less predictable

Link?
do you have a source or is that another "my dad is stronger than your dad"-esque statement?
Plus with the cost if everything in online it’s actually fairly balanced
my dad is stronger than ur dad tho
Yeah well my grandma can run faster than you
that would go in #red-dead-media
But they already made those changes a while ago
It's back before they added extra cycles 😂
figured as much
that patch note was so long ago

you're slow to the party
December 2019
keep up 

is waiting till the 30 second mark for free roam missions really worth it?
standing here waiting for 30 seconds to hit seems counter productive
I dint think so but haven’t compared
I usually wait till the 5 minute or 3 minute mark. And then do another mission. If I recall, I think they actually made a comparison and claimed that you shouldn't wait till 30 seconds when you could be doing other missions to make more money, gold and xp
I heard the payment increases every 3min spent on mission, so not necessarily the 30s mark. I haven't, however, verified this myself, boring to stand around doing nothing, which breaks the whole purpose of having fun
You can alternatively do a quick collectible grab to pass the time i guess 🤷♀️ Probably would increase income per hour
Also it's good to wait 30 minutes in the legendary bounty to get the best payout 
Yeah but fucking 30 minutes!??!
I found it hard to accept Rockstar's more time spent on mission increases the reward aspect, to me, it goes against rewarding players for their skill in some cases, but alas, it's meant to be grindy to keep people busy
they should be rewarding instead for a fast completion instead of sitting around

this dumb fool
won't believe me when i say collectibles respawn
doesn't matter if it's the same cycle as yesterday
its not the true rdo experience unless you go into a showdown series and get a teammate that doesn't speak any english and is spamming mic and is garbage at the game
Doubt you've got any good money making methods then 
No troubles in money here.
when he says $40 is a lot, you know he broke.
His good money making method is fishing and killing alligators
Think they are around the same but farm animals aren't good for money or donation to cripps
Ox is rarer.
Aight
is moonshining good enough to get before collector or should I get collector first
Definitely collector first
but then I've made a lot of money collecting and very little Moonshining
but it's a personal choice
Do you like grinding or finding?
i'd say collector first just because it's more profitable with much less investment
MS you have to pay prob around 25 gold for the role and the shack. but once you're maxed out on MS it's 100% passive income
I don't know, the shovel and metal detector are fairly pricey items
so if you're lazy then i guess MS is good haha
i think the bag is 15
sometimes the roles get discounted too but imo not worth waiting for the role discount to come around if you want to just play
Yes I think it was 15. So long ago I couldn't remember
yeah i mean if you do dailies and get a streak going then 15/20 gold is nothing in the long run
spend that on cosmetics haha
MS also has very easy daily challenges for gold
literally stuff like drink your own moonshine and dance for 2 minutes
Thats less gold than I spend on my gun metals 
@cloud nova don’t buy moonshiner it’s just trash
It’s a high grossing role for solo players. It may not be as high as collector (would be a different story if the jeanropke map didn’t exist) as it nets you more than Trader in the same amount of time.
yeah it's good for solo players tbh
i still think bounty hunter and doing legendary bounties is the best though
gold is all i care about these days anyway
moonshiner also has great missions for helping with dailies
And they're fun, too
I loaded up the fourth moonshiner mission yesterday to get my seagulls right away
oh nice haha
And if we ever get cougars or panthers again they're great for that
i tried shooting seagulls with etta doyle on my horse... bad idea LOL
i guess her gang didn't forget she was kidnapped
Even after they ran away?
yep
lol
actually i think they saw me before i nabbed her
so there was a bit of a fight to get her
maybe that's why they were still aggro haha
i think people should just get all the roles
Guys what is the best moonshiner location one with flat surface
Lemoyne
I've currently in near the emrald station and i get delivery to van horn so but roads so fucking fucked
Lemoyne?
Yes
no shortcuts; since everything is so rocky.
heartlands is alright, but its centralized so your deliveries could take you anywhere
Should I start playing rdo or shouldn't I bother for now?
personally, i chose Heartlands and never regretted it.
whats keeping you from playing rdo?
Mainly bugs
lmao thats a weak excuse preventing you from playing rdo
Cripps and deliveries won't work today for me or anyone I've played with so far 
its still enjoyable, given its flaws
I'm actually considering it, but I don't know if it is comparable to gta boring online plus I have no friends who play rdo atm
Today's not the day to play RDO for me. Too much is not working atm. Bad luck everywhere
Comparable in negative terms
Well you're in the RDR2 community, you can make new friends to play rdo with
gta online is actually worse, given how kiddies are still on it
rdo is more slow paced, the kids would be bored to death
and find new people to play with on here
GTA Online aka "Minding your own business and getting shot by some hillbilly in an airplane"
if theres cripps then where is blood
choose your roles so that we know what platform you're on etc etc
Yea could be an idea, are modders frequent there? 'Cause that kind of 💩 always turn me off from playing
it seems to have died down
Yea, I'll do. I'm on pc
they prolly moved on to more popular games like call of dooty or something
it was rampant a few months back, now i won't even get randomly blown up
gta online is way more grindy imo
the only shitty thing about this game is how dumb the pvp is
Good thing this isn’t gtao nor is it a gta server
it follows the prequel in terms of pvp, albeit the mini-showdown before the actual pvp event
literally all you need to do is stock up on dead eye tonics(especially if you're in free aim lobbies, which you should be in if your pc)
and boom
easy win
showdowns are ok, some maps are pure cancer for snipers only
dead eye is broken
I would mainly play it for pve stuff but still
Are there any news about special servers or stuff like that?
it isn't broken, you're just not used to it.
like closed friend sessions?
not yet
but people are pushing for it
it is broken
literally
in a overpowered sense and actually broken sense
dives sometimes work sometimes don't against it
and it's purely guessing
it's like a fighter game
you have to predict when they shoot during dead eye
if it was intended to be overpowered, the slow motion would have kicked in for everyone in the lobby if someone was on deadeye then.
Yea, closed friend session, pve, rp etc.
I'm not a big fan of rp, but I think it has the potential to be lit
RP was is super popular for gta online suprisingly
once rockstar starts dropping more content for rdo i'm sure the rp community will come
LOL i mean you can complain all u want, but deadeye is here to stay. its so integral to RDR.
Not to RDO
or just stay away from PVP if you don't like it.
It's not a problem for consoles sense you basically have aimbot
but for pc it's basically taking aim assist to free aim lobby
mostly it's because PIB is just
so
free aim>
dumb
free aim is for the chads
RP
wasis super popular for gta online suprisingly
@cloud nova Yup, hope it will become a thing on rdo
Yeah i've had a couple people try to do a little semi rp with me already but my mic is jacked rn, trying to get it fixed
@open charm rose is right, put your shack in Lemoyne
I even paid $250 to move mine there from Heartlands (which was awful)
Super fast deliveries, close bootlegger missions, and all the ingredients are close for the best moonshine, the wild creek
collector for the win 
Although I use moonshiner nowadays
and my shack is in the Heartlands because I like that Area 
Someone wanna play ?

Is anyone interested in joining me for some RDO?
So how can i change my character appearance? i have tons of free changes in my benefits, but when i click on the "online" options of the player menu i don't see an option to do it.
@open charm Double Tap the holster button (the button that you hold to bring up the weapon wheel) and you will see a command prompt in the bottom right hand corner.
@fathom summit You don’t see the Change Appearance option? Or you don’t see a button that makes you do it for free?
@fathom summit press L go to online, go to appearance
do keyboard commands if possible?
....
gamer moment
thought you meant left trigger or something
yep literally never seen this menu after like 250-300 hours of red dead and probably 100 in rdo lol
honestsly
the fucking train baron free mission event
is fucking so bad
I can't even hop on the train half the time because the fucking buttons don't work
@marsh dirge thnx worked

Ah okay, that makes sense
Customizable as in?
placement
more options
placement as in
where the tent is, in the general area
not the actual map locations
although I would like to place a camp in ambarino...
Sure. I like the randomness of it sometimes and how it adapts to the environment . I’ve definitely had some pretty cool camps
easy day today for dailies
agreed
i would easily update my camp's theme if the game allowed me to plonk it down in the first place 
im just here patiently waiting for the next outlaw pass, only thing that makes me want to play online
WHY IS MY CAMP NOT HEREEE
sry this fucking camp bug is fucking killing me
my camp logo is here
This will never be fixed 
but nothing
am I the only one having the issue where my camp is on the map but it isn’t spawned in
just do the rest then
antique alcohol drunk.. visit owanjila dam
it happens from time to time, underscore dude.
find a new session
its annoying because showdown series isn't on the menu anymore and i can't do it
sucks I needed those for my last gold bar for collector
ikr luckily i got my gold yesterday and was able to get the moonshine shack
its more expensive then collector you need 25 gold bars
It’s probably worth getting collector before moonshine
yeah I said get that second
Ah gotcha
hopefully I'll get this gold rolling after I start getting these bonuses
idk i just wanted the bar so i could get drunk and have some passive income
for doing the dailies
collector should be peoples first choice for role
you need trader to get moonshiner right?
yeah but u can get it instanly with 25 gold
also im a go play nnow so dont expect any responses
@marsh dirge definitely, made way more money collecting than anything else atm
3 mintues has been the sweet spot for getting max gold on these freeroam missions
gotten like .4 or .3
@severe pivot I thought the bar doesn't give passive income, it does now?
Nah it doesn’t
Moonshine is just kinda passive because you don’t have to do a whole lot
Just start brewing and you can go do other things while your moonshine is being made
That’s close to passive income
Yeah thats what i figured, i just read his comment as bar somehow giving passive income
bounty hunting takes alot of grinding
i wish they paid a little more gold
I need a collectors bag, anyone knows ways to get it? I am far away from those 15 gold bars it cost u.u
Do dailies and if you can grind bounties and stranger missions
@marsh dirge same and they make it like the story mode bounties
you have to pay for the bounty hunter rank and you get fuck all for it @tough widget
i do dailies
have a pretty good streak atm
yeah and bounty jobs are less fun
thankfully the bounty challenges for the last two days have been easy to do with just one mission
I hate bounty missions, too
they are a chore
Tbh the game feels like a chore to me now
Been playing for about 6 months since I came back (left in the beta days) and the dailies have kinda burnt me out on a lot of things
I’m also a solo player so there’s less in it for me
I like Bounties, especially Legendary ones
They should actually do stuff with red dead lmao
Me and a friend started it at around the same time and we both got tired of it recently as well, after reaching about 500 hours of rdo each
It’s a joke now
Currently they're in quarantine like us
And I’ve been just playing story lol
Only been going online to do dailies
Getting baked as fuck and fishing those legendary fish😤
my whole posse is just doing dailies to continue the streak we have
then logging out
we did all the game has to offer for now
on day 128 now i think, for me.
its because rdo has like
0 content
meanwhile gta v
rockstar will probably start pumping out rdo content whenever they stop focusing gta v stuff
they didn't stop after 7 years, i doubt they'll stop anytime soon.
pretty sure its two different teams that work on rdo and gtao 
^ that too
Tyrues are you familiar with the concept of diverting manpower
oh
there are 2 different teams
but
like
keep in mind that rdr2 is still kinda new
sure it’s been 1 year
but keep in mind they released the heists dlc for gta after 2 years
and the heists dlc made gtao very popular
and the same thing will probably happen to rdo
we just need to wait
It's rockstar's cash cow, it's older, so received more content, gigantic source of profit, both from game copies and microtransactions since the economy is fairly inflated, more mainstream than Red Dead, so GTA will always get more attention. In any case rdr2 will probably go through the same cycles of player base volume with how recently an update comes out. GTA Online itself was barebones back in '13
i mean, you don't need to divert manpower if you alrdy got two decently sized up teams working both games.
and yea, GTA is the older IP compared to red dead, so of course, its gonna receive more attention etc
then again, we're here about Red Dead right
we shouldn't be talking about GTA
🐮
they both drip feed content but most people would rather get on for a new car than a new horse
exactly
unless you’re a fan of the Wild West
most of the horses are relativity the same
kinda
not really tbh
there different types of horses
like race horses
war horses
etc
But they aren't as customizable as a car

ok well there is a car community in gta v thats actually pretty big
Yeah, i mean, how many people in the world think cars are cool, and how many people are into equestrianism/exposed to a lifestyle that gives them access to horses lol
no comparison from a business standpoint
honestly
flying cars> a new horse thats a little faster than your average horse
they should just add normal wagons that you can buy
@twilit hemlock oh fuck no
I hated the idea of
flying cars
I mean appeal wise for most players to get on
and flying bikes
Oh sick a new wagon that makes me even less mobile
meh
“Slow”
A medium horse
Black thoroughbreed
I was explaining what horse I use and I'm using the best saddle I can biy
anyways
Buy*
I don't remember the name of it because I don't really pay attention to names that don't matter
tbh
you shouldn’t even
compare gtao and rdo
like
rdr2 is a Wild West game
and gta is gta.
sure they’re both made by the same company
but they’re just different
like
cmon
So you're basically saying it's okay to be alright with the game being less quality than it should
It's spammy as all getout
You cared enough to respond
cool
Just because gtao is not a wild west game doesn't mean it should be better in terms of content a and quality. Just because a game is a wildwest and different from a game doesn't mean it can't be held to the same standard of content/quality of content.
Saying that just because they are "two different games one is a wild west and one is gtao" isn't a valid excuse for them to not be held to the same expectation.
i mean the only big difference between rd2 and gta is the era
the gameplay mechanics are pretty similar
Ok but hear me out
Train customization
Bam
Issue solved
Pimp my train to the extreme
dont know why there arent any passenger trains in rdo
Yeah, i always found that odd, would be a nice detail to rdo
Probably because there isn't a lot of dense population centers besides saint denis
then idk
And export/import of materials is more important than transportation into ghost towns
Unless the trains were going even further west
if they aren't saving them for a future update its prob a server issue
oh @twilit hemlock btw
I bet rockstar thought that players would abuse it
Which prob would happen
abuse what
Heists would completely inflate the economy of rdo
or something
either that ir
or*
they thought it would be “too easy”
which is true
the economy of rdo is already broken
npc's barely give any money and i doubt the vaults would have much
How is the economy already broken
if they ever add passenger trains to rdo
the faults would prob have around 20$ in them
vaults*
because there is a map that someone made for the collector that knows where all the collectables spawn lol
oh yeah
per cycle
Oh yeah
that
I've been using that recently lmao
you gotta admit it’s one of the best things that happened tho
It’s not entirely broken
Collector is still super boring, as it should be
It’s just a way of grinding hard to get to the top
Not everyone wants that and so there are other options
It’ll only get better as more roles are added
GTA and RDO aren’t comparable for two key reasons: different playerbase, not the same time invested/money made.
It doesn’t make sense for R* to crank out content for rdo because it just doesn’t make all that much money
They got lucky with GTA and took advantage of what they had
I don’t think they’ll reproduce that balance of player satisfaction and corporate profit with RDO
The fact that Red Dead has always been a great single-player series also doesn’t help the case for online to be developed
I never understood the point of GTA Online. There are tons of exploiters, griefers, and not much incentive for actually playing the game as an open world sandbox. They really should have made it more as an open world side game for solo/small group play, and removed the toxic buggy way it's setup now. Anyways, the single player is fine, which I would hope is why people bought it.
Well it didn’t used to be full of so many exploits and griefers
But if you give gamers power, they’ll abuse it when they get bored
Idk, i enjoy the slow play of RDO/RDR 2. I get on GTAO and i feel like i'm constantly running for my life. I think the simple life of RDO appeals to me and I hope we one day get a homestead to farm and take care of. I kinda like the idea of just getting on something and biding my time to do it. And its "me" not Arthur, or John, but my character. Thats the real appeal as well.
Yeah, there's a lot of potential in something like that. A lot of games have attempted it. Fallout 4, especially modded, ARK, Conan: Exiles (?), morrowind/skyrim (a bit), and so forth, but they never really seem to fully click. There was one post I read in the Hunter: Call of the Wild forum on steam where someone said they enjoyed the hunting aspect of RDR2O so much they bought a hunting simulator because that's mostly all they did in RDR2O, lol. I guess though, some day a game will come along that will have it all, and we'll still not be quite happy enough, but that's what pushes innovation 🙂
Indeed
The important thing is to focus on what we like about the game and hope that the things we don’t like are changed for the better
they extended level rewards to june
thats not a good sign for a update anytime soon
is it possible to restart online without changing your character or creating a new one?
its always "closed friend session" now for GTAO
which i think some people want the same for RDO
so that they can play with friends, and friends only
without some a-hole griefing or spawning 50 cougars on ya
some npc got mad at me and shot my bounty instead of me
and it was one shot in the chest
Damn that’s shitty luck
What’s the player count per lobby in gtao
25?
you're 30
Yeet
Oh he’s definitely 29
damn age reveal

mid life crisis eh
Highly tempted to just make a permanent posse and name it 'bounty runs' @-@ blegh
Make it open to join. See if that works.
I'll probably not get bald at all lmaoo, nobody in my family got bald
You rude & mean fuck, You're gonna get fat
That’s a compliment in quarantine
gta online is super grindy
like
even more so than rdo
but once you get an oppressor mk2 it becomes easy street
honestly you guys keep saying gta online brings in profit, but I actually don't know a single person whos bought shark cards
I might try online I haven't been on since they came out of beta
Didn't take-two release a report on how much they made through shark cards?
I can't find any legit websites with info. They are all like third hand ones lol

I’ve bought a few shark cards but in my defence I was 11 when I got the game and I was accustomed to DNS money
Such a shame I didn’t clean more of it and transfer it across platforms
Scary that it was 7 years ago now
I don’t feel any older
Ah shit
Why cant i pitch my camp
Might try restarting, camps glitch a lot
Don't talk to Cat, that helps.
Also just in the online menu, choose camp
if it doesn't spawn, pitch it
that works for me
Yea. It keeps saying that camp is being pitched. But nothing happens. Dont need a camp i guess
what a sad week on the newswire
Why’s that?
just another role xp week
we used to get double xp on everything for a week
or +50% xp on everything
Just a little
Useful for newbies though I suppose
$500 would have got my attention
Honestly don’t know why gaming companies aren’t taking advantage of the lockdowns
Hosting in-game events and sales will surely secure a good bit of revenue
Us gamers gotta do something with all the spare time
I think the problem is that the employees are under lockdown as well so they work from home and that's probably harder to manage making new stuff? But could also just be R* being stupid lmao
Well they haven’t really gotta make more stuff
Just offer double/triple xp and currency boosts and put a bunch of discounts on mtx
Also people just playing the game makes them money anyway because it gets people referring the game to friends
^ last content update was 4 months ago
@empty quarry If R* uses that as an excuse they'll get ripped to shreds
a lot of dev companies are putting out MORE content and events during this lockdown, not the other way around
much in the same way automotive manufacturers are moving to ventilators and fashion designers are moving to making face masks and hospital beds
there is a golden opportunity here that R* is sleeping on
Exactly
If I could afford to be trading, the money I’d make on some stocks
Makes me green with envy of the guys who have the capital
any word on a new patch or update for RDO?
Nah
would be the perfect time
There’s a role you can get for patch notes that will notify you when they’ve been released
Should be in #roles
there's a setting in the menus that allows you to 'toggle to run'
rather than 'hold to run'
cool ill check it
certainly there on console, might need to have a browse through the menus
Oh damn, really? I gotta do that then
yesss, it makes it so much better
Goddamn it’s revolutionary
Also just tried hold to reel and it’s incredible
So much easier to yoink a fish while reeling
yoinked
Beware, the yoinkerman
i wish the moonshine shack had a wardrobe
yea, FT post would've been a no brainer
A safe would be cool too
Fast travel, somewhere to cook, wardrobe, dog, mailbox
Would all be very nice
Easily 2k in upgrades
there's literally a stew pot and fireplace/stove in maggie's kitchen
just let us interact with it for $650 godamnit
and definitely a dog, we all prob have two puppas now that we got a free husky
Yeah I felt bad about sacrificing my boy Jimmy to the Seven Circles so I had space for Jimmy 2.0

Do player characters have navels, or for that matter the character models in general?
@pulsar arch Brokeback Marston, cool nickname
Ah. Gotcha.
I’m wondering if my character was created in a lab like Kyle XY, or if he has a navel.
I have gone shirtless, but the pants he’s wearing are so high waisted, it’s not clear if they are covering one or if he just doesn’t have one.
You can have the player go shirtless in game. I have one “outfit” were he’s wearing double gondaliers instead of a shirt.
Sigh. Created in a lab. This surprises me. Rockstar isn’t like Starbucks, afraid of showing a navel.
I have realised that I love Charles’s deep voice. I hadn’t thought about it in tons of game play, but the other night I noticed how rich and deep it is.
shirtless with the double bandoliers reminds me of that one erron black cosemetic in mk10
Erron Black is a beast
The problem with the double bandoliers is that they don’t fit the body. They stick out and look funny.
Yeah, It’s a look. Pity that “Athletic” is so whimpy. The icon shows a body builder and that isn’t even close to what you get. I mean, I don’t want a veiny gross over the top body builder character, but a little control over the degree of atheleticism would be nice.
the collector holster belt is really nice looking
I love the collector belt. It’s my fav.
Have you gotten the accessories? Hip flask and compass?
Cool.
saving for shovel rn
I found it the easiest to get max rank in. Shovel and metal detector and you’re set.
Anyone know how I could set up camp and or get my horse back online in free roam?
I been traveling by foot, it's a pain in the ass lmao
Did your horse die?
got no idea what the hell happened to him I think he ran off a few days ago
press h
If he’s not dead, h or up on the dpad should bring him. Or go to a stable.
even if hes dead
you'll get a replacement horse
would always invest in buying horse insurance
Of course if he were dead, it would bring the old grey
found him, awesome thanks!
If you have horse insurance, do you have to revive your horse in the field?
no
Awesome, Teargod
you can if you want them isntantly
but when they despawn you'll get them back eventually
My horse is really slow to respond to calls, at least in single player.
in my experience
the horse is the r word
they don't jump correctly half the time, they constantly run into things and won't sprint sometimes, sometimes just run in circleds
They also don’t come close enough to mount which is a pain.
I stopped my horse and hitched him, and he decided to stand at 45° on a rock. lol.
yeah horse mechanics are garbage lmao
Maybe he just wanted some sun where it don’t shine
Is there anywhere or icons I should be looking for to pick up quests in this game so I can start making some money?
All I been doing is killing random people
I mean like what's the icon on the map to find them?
they are yellow
I haven’t done the main quests yet because they required 2-4 players.
main quests give a lot of money
fishing rainbow trout near rhodes is also profitable
50 dollars every 10 minutes in my experience
So you get 4 players to start, 2 leave and you have to replay a dozen times because they’re not made for low level characters.
omg flashbacks
fishing used to be meta cash earnings in beta
then they nerfed fishies : (
I love the fishing. They’ve added more.
rainbow trout give quite a bit still
Where did the term “nerf” come from?
yea, definitely still decent and particularly so in early game before roles
that's one for google 
i think it has something to do with DOTA
how about 18lb muskies? I can usually get several near the dam south of Strawberry
DOTA? TMFA
the travel time to sell makes it slightly less profitable than stocking up on salmon or trout
maybe there'll be a seaman role one day to make fishies great again
Ah. Nerfed is from Ultimate Online.
That I remember. DOTA, I’d never heard of.
I’d also like rail travel and paddle wheel travel.
There is that great paddle wheel dock in Blackwater, but they never dock. Would be nice to take one from Blackwater to St Denis.
I stole the boat from the braithwaite dock, but didn’t know it would auto sink if I took it out too far. 😦
you just gotta stay somewhat close to the coastline
but you can do an annesburg to matea falls run
then splat
I was griefed again the other day. I don’t understand how other players who don’t appear on the map and I don’t even see can blow me up multiple times and have me appear in random places when they do.
no new austin
I was trying to take the boat from Rhodes to New Austin. I also tried to take it to the penitentiary, but can’t. I hear there is stuff to explore there, but I guess that’s in single player after 100% completion.
yea, sisika is single player only at this point
and i think it's just the one mission there
I’m at the end of chapter 3. I’m hestint to go further because I really want to get all the character requests and raise myself to max honour, which is a slog.
I’m trying to get Pearson to request the navy compass. I got it, but I can’t get him to ask for it. I played poker with him for a while and he never asked. Do I have to be back in chapter 2 for him to ask for it?
I tried doing a number of honour stranger missions and they got messed up and the character I helped ran away from me and reported me for a crime when I had done nothing but help them. One guy was surrounded by wolves. I shot them all and he didn’t even thank me.
@gleaming tusk also
important question
are you console or pc
if your pc
switch to free aim lobbies asap
I’m terrible with free aim. It’s a bit easier with a mouse but then I forget how to get deadeye activated and deactivated...
I second Teargod’s question re switching “lobbies”
@gleaming tusk go to story, then go to settings in story mode, click controller settings and turn off aim assist then go back to online
you'll be placed in free aim lobbies
I’ve never seen a stinking lobby in the game
which means people you play with or against won't have aim assist
and you get bonus xp
for killing
Why the fuck is it not possible to change the settings without going to story mode?
it is possible but you won't be placed in a free aim session
does that matter even if I don't use a controller?
It’s not possible for me. I’ve tried. It is grayed out
because if it isn't set to free aim you'll be placed with auto aimers
I’ve gotten used to using a controller and auto aim.
and since your pc you won't have aim assist
so you'll be at a disadvantage
a massive one
Why no aim assist?
ah. I have a controller on a pc.
It’s an xbox 1 controller with a usb connection converter at the end, made for pc.
and tbh the aim assist online is fucking broken
the one thing I don't like about this is no auto run I hope there's an update for that.
and somehow people still miss
Jayne, in your opinion, what’s the best rifle in rdo?
I’m using the bolt action with a medium scope.
iirc varmit rifle was nerfed also getting headshots in general is a pain
the best rifle is probably bolt action
especially for controller users
since aim assist
What level of deadeye do you have to get to see the area to hit for a clean kill on an animal/ single shot kill on a human?
I have it in single player, finally.
I just discovered that doing chores gives you deadeye and honour
and Paint is black is op as fuck
i personally in free aim lobbies find the pump shotgun is really fucking good
and when you get slugs it'll only be better
I have the pump action shot gun as well. I’m using express ammo in the bolt action
is express range or damage
dmg
i'm 50/50 on those two ammo types
after we do the bank robbery for the online story mission in saint denis , what do we do next to continue. please help me out
bolt action is already a two hit kill
High velocity is range
@faint urchin just gotta wait for the next gold mission to show
jumping sessions can speed it up
and typically if you're medium range you should be using a shotgun
@pulsar arch how long does that usually take
no more than an hour
In pvp or story, Jayne?
pvp
@pulsar arch i finished the mission yesterday but i turned it off like 20 min after that means i must wait an hour today in session ?
PvP stuff is aids? It compromises the immune system?
You can open the catalog, walk away and you stay in game, if you need time to pass
If I join a pvp thing, I get griefers after me right after.
I prefer spy vs spy ;-P
@faint urchin are you still at negative honour?
dishonorable*
bank robbery is the last mission in outlaw arc
Got a question, if I switch to that free aim lobby thing. Will i still be able to play with my friends who may not have done that? or would I have to switch back?
@pulsar arch yes i’m still negative
feed your horse 100 times and you'll be honourable
you'll be placed in a aim assisted lobby if you join their session @gleaming tusk
you should get a notfication before joining saying "you are about to join an aim assisted session"
I’m staying at low honour because the high honour trader resupplies are a pain in the arse
Just shoot people and horses
Horses gets you there faster
Also slaughter farm animals
I’ve been riding around shooting everyone who doesn’t compliment my horse. Heh.
@pulsar arch i have to be honorable again ?
Of course the honour change guy will help. With the outlaw pass, I got several free changes
@pulsar arch to continue doing missions ?
@faint urchin check your story mission completion in 'progress' in the menus
it'll tell you if you have more missions to do when switching to high honour
like, have you done the mission where you rescue someone about to be hanged in tumbleweed?
@pulsar arch yeah i saved those two guys , it says i’m at 75% done or some where around there
Did you do the Blackwater mission for misses leclerk
I'm trying to do some sort of a quest. It told me to go see some of the sherrifs at the jails. But it failed to find players to start the mission. Can I solo them online? Or no?
@twilit hemlock the one where she kills that guy ?
@pulsar arch it says 72% done but i still have “A life of shine “ locked
That's the moonshiner missions
thats the one
i just want to do missions to get gold that’s the reason i’m so ok the missions to get money and gold
do that and u have completed online story... for now
@terse imp i did the saint denis robbery what’s after what , what do i do ?
well did you do the high honour story missions as well?
@terse imp i already did the missions with harley and black water
so you did the gunslinger missions and the outlaw missions?
it depends ur honour
if u have high honour you can do the gunslinger missions if you have low honour you can do the outlaw missions
@terse imp i’m at low honor how do i start the outlaw ones ?
The last mission for the high honor is when you rescue the Marshall which he said he did and the last for the low honor one is the bank robbery
Which he did
@twilit hemlock i did the black water one where harley kills that one guy after that i was done
the missions didn’t pop out after that
The missions you are missing are the moonshiner missions
Which are locked behind the moonshiner role
I did the death and taxes mission but when I go to my moonshine shack she seems to offer it again? It didn’t lock up this time after the mission so is there more than one of them or do you just get offered it multiple times?
teddy brown mission is lit
the next mission after hat one
you get
a shitload of money
and i think you even get a gold bar for it
I really should play the story missions. If you’re in a posse and the others in it have done the missions and you haven’t, can they still help you out in them?
does anyone want to play on ps4 and please help me get gold
So long as you’re posse leader
Ah. I’m not a posse leader but I was thinking of joining a standing posse
@faint urchin do you have any treasure maps?
Yeah you have to be the leader if they’ve already done it. I think a temp posse will work
Ah. That’s best way to get gold. Xbox or I would
Try using #ps4-lfg or whatever it’s called. Ping the bounty hunters as that’s the role that makes gold and ask if any want to play
#ps4-lfg
i have 5.68 gold i just want 10 more to get bounty license and work my way there
@buoyant sluice whats the channel your taking about ?
whats the best sets I should be aiming for beginner collecting
I don't have the metal detector
all I have it the shovel
@cloud nova look at collectors bag it tells you the amount of money it gives. I think most jewelry needs a metal detector along with coins. If I had to guess I’d say arrowheads if you have a shovel
arrowheads need metal detectors
nah arrowheads is shovel
do you need the disturbed earth with eagle eye
@faint urchin in #lfg-ps4 do @ PS4-Bountyhunter (but together so it pings them) and ask if anyone wants to play. If someone does they’ll message you and y’all can do bounty’s to get gold
It helps but no. Use the jeanropke map and it tells you where they are anyway
jonathan can't see lfg ps4 because he doesnt have the ps4 tag
how do I know what cycle im on
Oh lmao. Go to #welcome-rules and get a ps4 tag first
Why restrict searching for others to a particular platform? Is there a restriction online for cross platform matches?
Jeanropke map tells you which cycle you’re on I believe. Anyway it updates automatically so doesn’t matter if you use it. It’s under the pins sexton of #collector
What? There isn’t cross play
@night oar There isn’t crossplay so it helps eliminate confusion when people who are on different platforms try to play together
oooooh I see
I have played with a ps4 player
You mean there isn’t cross play on this discord?
^
Um. I was in a posse last week with a ps4 player
They lied to you
Then you are the only person who has managed something impossible.
Regardless, the platform specific roles are to help people find other users who play on that platform.
Yeah since there’s no cross play they weren’t on ps4. What do you mean it was on the player info, in rdr or on the gamer card?
I’d laugh if their name was just ‘PS4 Player’
@cloud nova how to i get the ps4 tag
Gamer card
did i get the ps4 role already ?
#welcome-rules scroll up it’s there
Yeah it’s there now
In #lfg-ps4 do @ PS4-Bountyhunter (but together so it pings them) and ask if anyone wants to play. If someone does they’ll message you and y’all can do bounty’s to get gold
Now do that ^
...you do realize a gamer card is something only Xbox users have right
okay let me try
The rockstar profile
Or at least to view it on Xbox it has to be on Xbox
Got a link to get solo lobby apparently.... where to post ?
