I left all the drawers open lmao, nothing happened. story missions are usually pretty safe. though I did threaten the sleeping dude with a knife and then knocked him out.

Well that blows. I guess it counted toward gold mission completion, because I really truly and deeply care about that (lmao)?? Game poo poo -10/10.

I went in the back of the house, start searching through a drawer in that room, and all of a sudden the dude is standing behind me like what the gently caress are you doing. So I kill him then took my time looting the house and stole the wagon. The fence mentioned it later and my guy was like yeah poo poo happens.

I’m going to be so loving pissed if this game literally causes me to get malaria in real life.

I’ve been posting in this thread about all the effort I’ve gone to to get a copy of the game while working in India. I thought I was home free today when I finally was able to get access to a 4G hotspot. The speed is decent, averaging 15 to 20 mbp/s, but only if I leave the very solid door to my room open. Otherwise it can’t maintain a download.

Cut to 20 minutes ago, with the download at 40% and I find 3 mosquitos buzzing around my loving face. I didn’t start taking my anti-malaria pills since I’m on a really nice campus and had barely seen any insects, let alone a mosquito.

I don’t think I was bitten, but goddamn this game better be worth it.

You absolute loving idiot. The game ain't the one giving your dumb rear end malaria

I ran into some Odriscolls robbing a stage coach. I dismounted and began lightly pressing r2 as they pointed a shotgun at me telling me to get out. Deadeye shot them both in the face beautifully and twirled my gun away all without having Arthur say a single word. It was beautiful

How do you get the Hatchet and Guns from GTA V?

I also cannot get my pre-order stuff. I am on chapter 4 now and the War Horse still isn't in the stables and I didn't get the supplies or cash either. My code redeemed and shows on my account.

At this point I am not sure if any of that is going to matter for me as I have a good horse and so much cash and supplies. I pretty much have everything in camp upgraded and have $1000 on hand.

Has anyone done the sharpshooter challenge? I'm at the point where it wants me to kill 6 animals without reloading but it doesn't seem to register kills. I'm either doing it too fast or not fast enough but it's annoying as gently caress.

Now that I can dual wield, first order of business was upgrading my pistols. So I walked across the street and robbed the doctor and his backroom, took the Schofield from the lockbox in back and looted the safe. I only had a $26 bounty as the lawmen shouted outside and I intended to surrender, but it wouldn’t let me. So I ran out north toward Mary’s place, whistling to get my horse to follow. Well they chased me for a while but I got away, circled back to town and surrendered to the sheriff. Then Dutch comes in with a cover story and springs my rear end at no cost. We split up and I head across the street to the gunshop and buy another Schofield.

A few clicks later and both are fully decked out in gold, one with an ebony grip, the other with pearl. Symbolism for the battle raging in Arthur’s heart, y’see. Time to ride.

I know that and it is not listed in the stable. I did find a PSN thread where people are saying that it is broken (for some at least). It's like the redemption code isn't working. I will try some suggestions they had in there when I get home tonight though.

Having a blast with the game even though I suck at dueling.

My Arthur has become a serial killer because it's so profitable and the matriarch type at the camp keeps complaining about me killing innocents. Also, if you're ever in Strawberry, rent a room and watch Arthur have a depressing conversation with the mirror.

I somehow managed to lose my carbine repeater, but thankfully I still have my Lancaster repeater that I think I got when I visited the basement of the gunshop in I think St Denis.

There is just some really strange stuff happening in the game and a lot of it has a sad story behind the disturbing scene in front of you.

I'm kinda sad that npcs no longer seem to suffer horrible wounds in fights. I remember them crawling around on the floor bleeding out in the first game but they just seem to fall over and die in this.

It better be considering the varmint rifle shoots .22 ammo while the Springfield uses either .45 or .50 ammo depending on the model.

the carbine repeater with a distance ironsight is also cool as gently caress.

this game is really good at making feel like a dick : so i receive a letter from the ex, i see her and she ask for help for saving her brother from some weird cult. i already found the heavens gate cabin so i tought to myself lady your brother is already dead. also i crossed my mind exaclty the things that arthur told her.

Try using lower caliber weapons, it helps with not instakilling them when you shoot them in the toe. Granted, it's hard to see when you are in the middle of a firefight.

Or just run around with a bow and shoot deer, chase them down as they bleed out, you monster

One complaint I still have is that the wildlife exhibition collection quests are ridiculously specific in their requirements. The first one tells you to get a perfect rabbit and a perfect squirrel. I happened to get a perfect rabbit while riding, so I figured I might as well complete it. I had no idea what I was getting myself into

same happened to me lmao, but heads up, really small game that you pocket in your satchel don't rot AFAIK, so you can grab those first and then get the game you hang on your horse.

wtf man same, I have one white and one black schofield, and they mirror each other. so white with black inlay, and black with white inlay, and then the hammer, ironsights and trigger also mirror the other revolver. it looks great but I don't really notice it unless I'm examining them, which kinda sucks.

DoctorGonzo posted:

does this make their jaw tear off? cause I swear I remember seeing people posting about ripping jaws off when they pistol whip, but I've never noticed it.

also, DO NOT gently caress AROUND IN LEMOYNE, Saint Denis is also a real easy place to get a bounty. can't move two inches without bumping into some city slicker and then all hell breaking loose. I got a $20 bounty in Saint Denis, tried to escape but there's lawmen crawling out the god drat gutters, so I had to shoot my way out or else I'd die / lose my horse (I tried to escape on foot but it was too difficult, and riding out would end up with my horse getting shot to ribbons, so I had to kill everyone, make a break for the city outskirts, then ride off on my horse). bounty jumps to $200, I escape and start exploring Lemoyne. but then I keep getting hordes of bounty hunters after me that don't piss around. 6 at a time, and they circle me, I always barely escape alive and my horse isn't built for this poo poo, so I've almost lost him a few times. right as I was about to exit Lemoyne and make a clean break to Valentine, another bounty group came at me with hunting dogs. poo poo was close.

I robbed a stage just east of Twin Stacks Pass. Killed the driver and the husband and wife who were passengers jumped out and ran. The man wouldn't stop, despite my threats and firing warning shots in the air, so I shot him in the back of the head. The wife stopped, but then ran again in the commotion. I shot her in the upper thigh and she proceeded to limp along, leaving a trail of blood, until I finished her with a second shot. It was a brutal, gory scene that but my worries similar to yours to rest.

oh i'm now maxed out dishonourable and I don't give a poo poo, game is way more fun when you stop caring about honour and just go crazy every once in a while. looking back, it was so boring having to pussyfoot around everywhere to not get honour hits, and it was especially painful when you got an honour hit for something totally out of your control. so gently caress it, being an evil man is great. i love using my double barrel shotgun to blow someone's head clean off if they so much as look at me the wrong way. robbing people on long journeys also helps break up the monotony of riding.

So I hunted down the first two treasures, which resulted in two dead horses. I'm trying to be honorable but man they make you feel the pain when you aint got no horse in the wilderness. Luckily I spooked a stranger who was fixing a horse shoe and his horse killed him for me.

can you enter cities? can you even enter a bar and take a drink?

I like being a do-good in games, but here is getting too much in the way and make a slow game even slower. On top of the times where I am unfairly hunted for the crime of defending myself from bandits.

being good gets you shop discounts and certain outfits that you can only buy when your honour reaches a certain level, but the grind for honour is insane, it takes like 5 good acts to outweigh 1 bad act, or at least that's how it seems. and being good is so boring, gently caress doing camp chores, donating stuff to the ledger doesn't give a big boost, and helping strangers on the side of the road, only for them to rob you, results in honour loss when you defend yourself and kill them :)

also, was funny as hell when bounty hunters spawned on top of a bridge on their horses and couldn't get down, i snapped a pic but PS4 doesn't let me upload pics to the internet, I gotta use a usb or some poo poo

yea my dude, you can do everything a good person does, just better. it's more fun. you don't get gunned down on the street like a dog for having low honour. i dunno if it affects storyline events or anything, but people still treat me the same, if i greet someone, they greet me back.
