Switching to first person mode during large fun fights, especially the tobacco burning mission, is extremely rad. It’s gritty as gently caress.

Yeah when it was announced they said it would first be released as a beta in November. Probably because the servers will burst into flames and the first 6 months will be non-stop connection errors, just like GTA Online.

I'm doing the shooting and having to manually work the lever action on my rifle is the coolest thing Especially because you can hold the fire button while you're working the action and hell pause halfway through so you can reload dramatically

That makes sense i didnt catch that part so i was wondering if that meanr it was getting pushed back or delayed or something. I expect chaos. Kinda wondering how done this game is as well. I mean theres not like anything totally glaring except in the gang pages it doesnt even mention the gang in new austin the los lobos or track those stats like the other gangs its almost like they just straight up forgot or didnt get around to it. I mean it doesnt effect anything gameplay wise but its weird. Also googling around special editions are supposed to get a mission related to them but i didnt get one other than the bounty hunting or i missed it so its extra weird there is no progress tied to them.

Is there a trick to fishing I'm not getting? Seems like I spend 10 minutes reeling, stopping to tire the fish out, quickly reeling again while bringing my rod back, and repeating only for the fish to get free when it's a few feet away. My hands are worn out.

Spent a few hours this evening trying to do generic open world stuff in the postgame and got really aggravated. Tried about 10 times to get the legendary bullgator to spawn, only to get a vague warning that there's too much activity for it to appear ad nauseum. Things work well enough when the story is there to hold your attention, but this game is way too far up its own rear end in a top hat to be a fun open world gently caress around game when it's through I think. It's actually a step back from the first game in that regard which is really telling.

I mean thats as intentional as in gtav they dont want you loving around in single player like theres no radiant quests like bounty hunting. They give you all the money so you can buy anything. They want to punt you into online where they have some shot of you using your credit card again. What they are doing is blatent as hell but was totally expected. These mechanics are not to enhance the single player expeirince its so when you hit online you can barely hold your head above water against homing tomahawks and dynamite arrows (both in game already) with your frail malnourished rear end cutting bullets one by one to have a shot a dropping someone lol

I have never played a game with fast trAvel where I have cared less about fast travel than I do right now Riding through the mountains with the cinematic camera on to get the big sweeping views of poo poo is so good And it really makes it clear how big the world is, and how wild and untamed, and how small you are in comparison

It really sucks because GTA Online was filled with so much promise, and there's genuinely a lot to like about it, but the sheer money grubbing greed involved with their decisions during the ongoing development has pretty much made it a flaming shitshow. While I am hopeful that RDR online will let me play cowboy forever, I am not looking forward to their cash grab bullshit.

I hope in RDR Online , when you want to buy a house (postgame spoilers:) they make you take a loan out on it and if you don't pay it regularly (IRL time) they foreclose it. Also, you have to build it by hand and you can get killed while hammering nails on the roof and Uncle is there just complaining at you the whole time

I'm liking a lot the more out-there elements like the meteorite, cannibals and the robot. Now I want an open world RPG all about monsters, but not like the Witcher, something like paranormal investigators would be so cool.

In RDR3, which will be a prequel to RDR2, I hope uncle will be there being a piece of poo poo the whole time again. Uncle will never get any character development, he will have just been a useless waste of air from the moment he slid out of the womb But miss grimshaw will be the one to really watch

Ainsley McTree posted:Yeah I don’t get it either. I put together a fancy boy outfit that’s just a shirt and vest but the game warns me that I don’t have a hot weather outfit when I go out of the camp. However the default hot weather gunslinger outfit has a jacket?? I guess that must be one hot vest I have not started making any trapper crafted clothes, but I would expect those to have more varied warmth levels. What with all the fur hats and greater variety of fuzzy vests.Though so far as I've been able to tell from shopping around Valentine, Rhodes, and St Dennis. Unless it's a coat or gloves, 90% of clothing you can buy for cash has no warmth rating once you get back to your wardrobe to check. The vests? No warmth. The full size chaps you can get at Valentine? No Warmth mentioned at the wardrobe. Every pair of boots seems to have a meaningless "Great for hot weather" note. While every single coat for sale I've seen in general stores and tailors are, "Slightly Warm", same for all the gloves. Two slightly warm items are still "Hot weather", so to make anything warmer than that you need to dig through your default wardrobe options, or look into crafted trapper gear(?) The Default wardrobe has a pair of rawhide tasseled "Slightly warm" vests. Along with two Warm, and one Very Warm, coats. Most stuff like the "Gunslinger" Hot weather preset, the jacket is 'Slightly Warm' and is it's only item with a warmth rating. Slap a pair of gloves on that, and it's still Hot Weather rated so far as I've been able to tell. The Grizzly Outlaw default outfit has a nice looking "Warm" Montana coat (Unlike the shabby looking wool frock). Which all by itself puts you in "Average weather" territory. Slap a pair of gloves on that, and it now you have a cool looking outfit that toggles between Cold and Average when you take the gloves off via quickwheel. Then there is your tutorial cold outfit, thanks to the "Very Warm" coat it comes with. Looks like even if you are barefoot and take off your gloves, a Very Warm coat all by itself claims you are good for cold weather at the wardrobe. So if you don't want to care about weather, make any fancy outfit you want at the general store or tailor that is bound to be "Hot weather". Then stash a "Grizzly outlaw, but with gloves!" custom outfit onto your horse. TL;DR:  about temperature ratings with general store/tailor shopping.Default wardrobe Grizzly Outlaw preset+Gloves will give you a nice looking cold weather outfit, that counts for Average when you quickwheel the gloves off. For an  outfit that covers the times your fancy tailor made stuff isn't warm enough.

My hands are worn out. After you hook it you gotta use the left stick to tire it out before you reel it in...it'll probably start kicking again before you get it to shore and you'll have to stop and go left on the stick again until it stops vibrating and the fish tires out....then finish reeling it in and you should be good.

Just a tip for the fishing people, I wasted a trip into strawberry because I thought I had no bait. Turns out if you hit l2 or r2 you can pick and choose different bait based on the poo poo you have in your satchel when you have the pole equipped. That could have been 20 mins I was fishing, god damnit  Also, loving  at choking the poo poo out of the stagecoach driver by hitting the wrong button at the wrong time. I just wanted a ride, man. I didn't mean to scare you emotionally for life

Just got to chapter two, trying to go around talking to the people who can go missing because of the bug so they don't go missing. Couldn't find the kid until it was night and he was sleeping, so I grabbed some shut eye myself. Woke up, he's still sleeping. Now I'm sitting on a box next to his tent waiting for a child to wake up. This isn't creepy at all Edit as soon as I hit post he woke up. This game knows.

Finoshed the main story yesterday, great ending imho. I really liked Arthur as a protagonist and I'm actually sad he died. I played a good guy so his ending was pretty nice with the redemption arc being well made. Still, what a tragic guy. The letter from Mary you get a bit before is also really sad, all his hope for getting out of it is completely gone after a while. About the post game : I'm stoked to ride around the rdr1 map at this point and see how they did it. Anybody know if the game is fully accessible as Marston as far as story goes or do you have to reload a save if you wanna see all side missions and stuff? All in all a fantastic game, the slight control issues are a drop compared to the incredible amount of things this game does right. For me it's up there with Witcher 3 as one of the all time greats. I'm actually stoked to continue playing and will play online with friends once it's out.

In the post game I ran into the two idiots from Valentine that wanted you to shoot bottles off the heads and hit them. Marston was like um ok fellas and pushed them off a waterfall in barrels. I think they've recorded lines for Marston to do every side quest which is nuts... My Arthur was a lunatic until chapter 5 and I went from seeing the wolf all game to dying looking at a sunrise, a deer was in my dreams. I think that was as good as Arthur was ever going to get and I was very weepy.
