Does anyone know what the special horse controls are on the Xbox One? I've unlocked all three but missed what button to press.

It tells you in the help guide about horses, but it's something like rb+x while standing still = rear, rb+a while riding = skid stop (and you can like do u-turns with directions too) and hold x+direction while riding = "drift" which is basically horse strafing. They're not that big a deal unless you want to look cool so actually they are the most important controls in the game. Anyways the built in help guide will tell you specifics, I'm just going off of memory.

I gotta admit with all the bitching in thread I feel pretty lucky i havent hit any of these bugs. But i also read tool tips and after playing gta a bunch lately was fully prepared for the control scheme so that may also factor into my not assuming dumb poo poo.

Does anyone know what the gently caress this is all about? There's a crashed boat in the top right corner of the map, you follow a path to get there but this is all there is. No items or anything else to look at.

Yeah I've only hit minor bugs, nothing game breaking, and for whatever reason the problems I was bitching about way earlier in the thread where benign things like hitching my horse to the hitching post in Valentine would eventually get me killed with a huge bounty haven't happened in a very long time. I seem to have a bug that's constantly resetting my weapon loadout no matter what I set it to at a gunsmith, but it's not the end of the world.

I was riding a new horse up around Mt Shann when we took a tumble off the side of a cliff. Somehow we both survived, so I immediately gave her an oatcake as an apology. "Horse bonding has reached level 2." Glad horses aren't all that great about holding grudges in this game.

A FUCKIN CANARY!! posted:No, the stat modifiers max out at +/- 7.5% and then you can just never worry about it again. It’s based on resting and eating. Like you do have to eat an insane amount to maintain weight, but there’s a limit to how much food will actually contribute so eating like 20 things of meat will do the same as eating 2-3. Chocolate bars will pick up your weight faster as well, so if you’re trying to put on some fat eat like 3-5 of those then nap. I don’t remember where I read this from might have been here or reddit, but I am currently at perfect weight though there are some fluctuations where I have to eat some chocolate or whatever and sleep. The bonus for perfect weight is that 15% dead eye core, which is pretty sweet and all but whether or not it’s really worth it...ehhh. There is a whole lot in this game that doesn’t get explained well enough or at all. Like at max bond while riding your horse, patting it will give you back a good chunk of stamina (on a short cooldown)

Like just gone, not even on the old (now temporary) horse. For me the duel mini-game is either bugged or I'm an idiot. I softly press the R2 button to fill up the meter, then I press hard to pull but poo poo happens. Every time the story makes you do it I've repeated a dozen times when it accidentally triggers or I've just skipped the duel. I'm wondering if my controller is just broken at this point, cause how else can these simple steps be so hard?

I gotta say I really liked the stranger missions with Albert Mason. None of them were particularly challenging, but I just loved the interactions between him and Arthur. The guy's a dope but determined and Arthur seemed to respect it and actually like the guy. Arthur's journal entry about the photo Albert gave him was I kinda expected Rockstar to kill him off at the end for a laugh but I' appreciate their restraint.

For those who already finished the game or are deep into it, what point would you guys say is the best to really start digging into the side content and exploring poo poo? I just started Chapter 3.

I try to find woodpeckers and songbirds in trees, but I never see them perched on a branch or something when Eagle Eyeing. I've seen a ton of different songbirds spawn on the roof and fence of that little goat farm on Larned Sod, just south of the Heartland Overflow.

I finally learned how to cook seasoned meat after I dunno, like 80 hours of play. Did i miss that tutorial somehow or is it just plain not in the game?

I just started Chapter 3. If you choose to prolong chapter 3, just do everything except the Tobacco mission for a nice buffer but also having unlocked all the new side content chapter 3 offers. Keep an eye on the map to see if some slight time delay missions pop up. I remember thinking "Wait, why hasn't X mission shown up" only for it to do so after my next nap. If I'm remembering my Chapter 4 breakpoints right, stop doing main plot after Fancy boat for a nice buffer with as many unlocks as possible. Chapter 4 is probably more popular. As much because Elite Horses are for sale once you start it, and more side quests are unlocked or allowed to be finished. I've done a lot of my screwing around in chapter 3 though.

Having the worst time trying to get perfect bunnies. Also everything online says the rolling block rifle is unlocked to buy after you do the mission pouring forth oil but uhh I’ve done it and still can’t buy it. Anyone know exactly when I can buy it?

Did you do all four parts of the Oil quest? If so you'll be able to buy one at the start of the next Marston mission.

If you go to the game completion list in the progress menu there's a section called "ranters ravers and lunatics" or something like that, pretty sure he qualifies. It's just flavor basically, although it's nice that I was able to beat him to death in the street and no one seemed to care. Less nice that he apparently comes back.

As I was riding out of town with him hogtied on my horse, I pass a black cowboy who sees it and says "I'm not getting involved with that." Which I'm sure is a generic response but it made me laugh in context.

Was something updated recently? Yesterday before work I put my xbox in rest mode, as I've done a million times before while in the bank robbery mission. When I loaded up to play after work, the game acted as if I exited out and rebooted it. The same thing happened just now when I went to play. I'm back at camp and that mission hasn't started.

I think I'm near the end of Chapter 3. Without spoiling too much... does the camp ever get more to upgrade or buy? I have everything upgraded fully (minus the cosmetic stuff I have to craft), so other than the cheap provision refills I can't see any reason to keep donating to the camp funds.

Chapter 3 adds the boat, then as far as I know that's everything. I still throw $20 in the box every time I'm in camp. It feels good and it offsets some of the honor loss from the random robberies and violence.
