You can say what you want about those guys but goddamn is that a commitment to immersion. You know who else made the trains run on time

Can you get on the train legally at this point and automatically pay or something, or is it free and you just get to get on, or do you get gunned down

Afaik you're fine to get on any trains wherever you find them for free, the guards only go hostile if you try to go into the restricted baggage+engine cars. You can't fast travel without buying a ticket though.

Yeah, looting corpses pays peanuts. Also last night I found a gang hideout I didn't know about, and by the time I killed the leader every single corpse had despawned before I could loot them  That's a lot of potential corpses that could've had a treasure map on them!

Anyone have any tips for hunting wolves? I need those perfect pelts for crafting but I can barely ever seen to get any to spawn when in the places they're supposed to, and then they do it's to insta-aggro me which makes getting decent shots tricky. So far I've managed to get a single perfect pelt after hours of trying. I've never once seen any just chilling in the wild so bait hasn't been much use.

Go from Strawberry to the northwest forest where the Legendary Buck spawns, make a save just before you enter the forest. There's a wolf pack that randomly attacks you after entering that path, if they're nowhere to be seen reload your save and try again until you get the pelts you want.

Also like most animals that want to kill you, Deadeye and aim for the head. Trying to fight them straight up just seems like an invitation for them to bite your hands until you throw your controller. You don't have to get all of them either, typically the last one alive will run away when all the rest are dead.

By chance is there anyone here who would be able to fire up a save or just so happens to be at a point where they can attempt the "Fatherhood for Beginners" mission in the epilogue, part one? This is the mission where you have to tire out a horse and then assist with a foal being born. I'm experiencing an issue, and have found at least one other person who has it, where you cannot complete the task to birth the foal. It requires you to rotate the left stick where it will then vibrate and prompt you to grip the legs, but the prompt never activates and the task cannot be completed. I'm hoping to get something conclusive one way or the other but don't really have any way else to check it myself. My suspicion is that it could be a bug introduced with the most recent patch, or maybe just a wonky controller (and the other person who can reproduce it also has a defective controller). Edit: This was due to a defective controller after all. Sand Monster fucked around with this message at 14:27 on Apr 8, 2019 |

Go up to Ambarino by the geysers...theres always a pack around it...fast travel to the wapiti res and go a little south on the road..IIRC I just use the bolt rifle to head shot them and ive gotten 3 star pelts

I found at least one other person with the same problem: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/200179-red-dead-redemption-2/77583212 I really can't figure out what it is. Maybe some combination of a bug and something with my save file? Oh well. Disappointing.

I love that there are two versions of the game—theres the version I play with my 6 year old, where I work on the ranch, go into town to watch shows, and ride out on weeklong hunting and fishing trips and see the countryside. Then there’s the other game where I rob everyone on the train, dynamite stagecoaches and police stations, murder camps full of insane cannibals, and generally shoot people for not waving back at me when I say howdy.

They have comfy looking socks available to buy in RDO now. All they gotta do is add more PJ parts so I can get my "just woke up, threw on my hat and gunbelt then ran right into a gunfight" outfit put together.

every time I see a big RED DEAD ONLINE UPDATE roll across the Rockstar newswire and open it to find its them excitedly announcing yet another stupid Showdown mode nobody in the world wants I literally laugh out loud it’s like their online team is developing the game inside a tomb of obsidian deep within the earth’s core

So if for some reason you play RDO and for some reason you want to gain exp and decide on grinding out the lovely competitive stuff. Always. Always leave the game if it's Most Wanted, especially if it's in Saint Denis. If you like wasting your time for the least amount of experience and money possible in any of these horrible modes, then stick around. Otherwise you're time would be better spent on more productive things. Like self-mutilation, watching paint dry, watching grass grow. Stuff like that.

For the story missions in RDO. I know if you have good honor you get the good missions at the end and bad honor gets the bad ones. Then I assume everyone gets the same final mission. Once I complete the final mission can I do the other missions by just putting myself in standby for story missions or do I actually have to go and change my honor?

I am in chapter three, and I just cannot zero out my honor. My first play through I did high honor - and I maxed it out without really trying. I wasn't excessively greeting people, etc. This time - I murder everyone I see and make the bad decisions whenever I can and it still isn't zero. I wonder if there is a mechanism that stops you from achieving high/low honor until the last chapter or so. I am 64 hours in and only on chapter three. I spend A LOT of time causing trouble.

They actually added something good to RDO - the new race mode is very good. Tip: You don't actually have to be in first place to win the race. As long as you hit the target before anyone else does, it counts as passing the checkmark. So if you get the repeater or revolver you can snipe it from pretty far, even if you're behind in placement.

gently caress this game is beautiful visually. And oft gut punchingly hilarious when you gently caress up. "Hosea was abandoned" No poo poo, he hit the side of a bridge at full speed and was flung from his limp horse. gently caress that dead weight.

Is the quest to get the fishing rod just a semi-random event or do I need to complete certain things in chapter 2 before it's offered to me? I want to fish, damnit.
