Any tips for the stupid Horseman challenge where I gotta drag a guy 3300 feet? Eventually Arthur just releases the lasso. Also this would be a whole lot easier to track if it kept the distance counter active on the screen while I was attempting ...

Arthur seems to release the lasso when you go too fast. Just slow down a little. You don't need to go walking pace either, it doesn't matter if the guy dies.

Try the same with a shotgun. I did it accidentally today and was horrified.

That happened to me but it was because i wasn't standing in the yellow area on the map to fish from. Once I moved two feet over and started fishing from there, he started talking, gave me some crickets, I caught fish and he decided he was done. But at that point you have to left trigger engage him and answer if you want to keep fishing or leave. did you not answer him?

I did it again, did the whole thing again, skipped the cutscenes, this time he put his rod away and said he's going home. Last time he just said he was going home but never stopped fishing. I never got a prompt. I never got an option to fast travel back. This time I did.

No idea.

Thanks, friend.

Also on the subject of outfits mattering for cops, all I did this time was just swap from my bear hat to my fox hat and I didn't get recognized right away for my 5th train robbery. Maybe it also matters for state jurisdictions? I robbed the last train right outside of Saint Denis. Got into a pretty heated running gun battle with the cops where I nearly died a bunch too because the game did the stupid "removing my long guns" trick again, but only got a $325 bounty.

I gotta say, whoever decided that dying (the player, not the horse) should result in all your pelts going away should be poo poo canned immediately. I guess don't bother hunting while you're out treasure hunting because you'll inevitably fall to your death trying to make some jump the game wasn't really designed to accommodate.

e: On a related note High Stakes Treasure Map #3 can eat my whole rear end.

Just save scum before you do that stuff.

The game has decided I shouldn't have varmint rifle ammo or Improved arrows anymore and just throws them out whenever I start a mission. It's really great.

They've actually said they're working on patching the bug that causes your camp members to disappear, so maybe some other stuff will get fixed or broken worse in the process. :shrug:

Save scumming doesn't work because saving and reloading is another good way for all your pelts to magically disappear.

Nope...

met a random shack with a guy who offered food. Looked like a trap, smelled like a trap... t'was totally a trap.

If you agree and walk in, he knocks you out (can't be avoided) and its clearly implied that he rapes you.

You even walk funny afterward.

This happened to me after i got a carving in my varmint rifle, so if you modified your gun just reverse the changes and hopefully you stop losing your ammo. No idea about the arrows though.

Went to the saloon in Valentine to get a haircut at night. Some old drunk was there wearing a fur coat and a raccoon hat loudly talking poo poo to everyone in the bar. Got a haircut and a shave, then went to get a shot of whiskey. Old man comes over to me and we get into a fistfight. Took me a while but I finally laid him out.

I am now the proud owner of one incredible raccoon hat.

This happened to me. Sometime early into Chapter 4, I decided to go on a very prolonged hunting trip. Went way up to the north west looking for moose, and had literally dozens of pelts on the horse (which is dumb b/c the trapper is not far away).

This was last saturday, and I guess I had spent around 5 hours gathering perfects up there trying to fill my shopping list for crafting. On the way back to the trapper from the starting frozen town area, I hit cinematic camera to do some googling and some noise and two wolf tackles later before I could pick up the controller, all the pelts were gone, and my arab horse was dead (of course had not thought to save in 5 hours either).

I said "Woooooooooooooow" so long, the next breath was a long gasp.

Yeah, after I lost 4 perfect pig pelts I got from that one gunslinger's farm I save constantly every time I go on a hunting trip, ha.

But now I've got the Legend of the East satchel crafted before the end of chapter 2 so it's alllll good.

If the trapper spawned more frequently and in a greater variety of locations it would be better but I feel like maybe 1 loaded save out of 10 he's only at Saint Denis, so in the early Chapter 2 portion of the game, going out on hunts nowhere near there tends to be incredibly painful. At least there's a lot of stuff yet to turn in to Pearson.

I used a Klan rear end in a top hat for my horse lasso drag challenge and made sure to go slow enough that he stayed alive for the entire thing. It was pleasing to get a quick honor boost when I finished the challenge and put him in a fire.

Sigh. I got the no improved arrows and varmint rifle ammo bug. Thankfully I’ve done all my hunting except for cosmetic and achievement stuff.

Honestly I won’t worry about crafting anything cosmetic unless it carries over to online. I already have the best coat, the legendary wolf one. It’s totally worth the extra health drain to wear.

Also, having basically unlimited inventory space is awesome.

? The trapper has set locations and he is there 100% of the time for me so I have no idea what you mean by if he spawned? Here's the ones I know about :
NE of riggs station, on a hill. Just within Ox poaching distance.
North west of strawberry, all the way against the border of the world.
West of annesburg in the forsts on the west side of the river.
St. Denis (obviously)

I don't know it we're playing the same game or what because he's rarely outside of Saint Denis for me. Does he actually appear on your map or do you just have to remember roughly where he is and he shows up when you're there? If that's what you're talking bout then just lol, that's incredibly stupid to have him only marked on the map sometimes according to which digital winds are blowing wherever.
