I guess I'm not going to bother doing the loving challenges then if this is the kind of poo poo they put in them.

I did it and I have brain damage from a stroke so you have zero excuse. IIRC it took 2-3 hours to get it done but it got done. I have a 100% save to prove it.

Thanks for this. I beat the single player a while back and haven't gotten into the online until recently but now I'm super in. I love that it has straight up story missions.

Congrats.

I did most of those grindy gambling ones while watching a movie/tv show on my laptop since they don't require much thought. I think you would indeed get brain damage if you focus 100% on some of the stupider ones.

Well this is a rockstar game!

They added a coat and pants that are fairly close to what the three amigos wear, and there's a matching color scheme.
I think it runs 8 gold for the jacket (in the right color) , ~$80 for the sombrero, and ~$60 for the pants. My numbers are probably off though.

Does the weapon upgrades (not cosmetics) make much difference in the online game? Is it worth spending the money?

I've been sitting here for 5 mins trying to think of a joke to make but I just realised the animators of Mass Effect already did it for me

I think I have a hard time telling the difference because whether or not your gun is clean makes more of difference on the stat screen. But it can be hard to tell if the stat screen even means anything.

New Red Dead Redemption 2 Glitch Lets You Freeroam With Any Gangmember

Article is a couple days old, and I'm at work. Anyone else try this out yet? The article makes it seem like you've still got to cross your fingers once you pull off the steps you have to follow, and it's random who you get to follow you around in free roam, but I'm still kinda curious.

Someone in the youtube comments for the video made a list of certain missions/side-missions that it won't work during which seems like a good place to start.

The recently released OSTs, unless I'm missing something, are bullshit. 22 songs? Every loving mission in this game had its own score, release them you cowards!

I think there’s going to be a following set with more of the score. You can get a lot of them on YouTube though.

You can also do this if you let them rescue you from jail. When you get arrested and if someone comes to rescue you (rather than just being released) you escape with them via horseback. Eventually the coast is clear, and instead of going your separate way you can just hang out with them and ride around. You have to follow them though - otherwise you lose them. I'm not clear from that video if that is how this glitch works.

I get booted to free roam every time I try to join a race. I can do showdowns and missions without issue tho.

it’s like the game is so detailed it personalizes its technical issues for each player. Well done rockstar.

the way the last newswire was worded and the lack of even dripfeed content the last two weeks during the big sale/XP bonus promotion makes it sound like this coming Tuesday is a likely release date, going off how R* usually does these things. But if that were the case I’d expect some sort of announcement or trailer or something by today, so who knows

The ones leaving San Denis are the best chance for that. Like go there, buy a ticket to Anneburg then wait until its left town(Unless you like swimming in the Law) then rob it.

Can you buy a ticket on the train? I’ve never tried, so I end up just hanging out on the train after my destination to rob it, or doing it the right way and jumping on the train from my horse.

Buy a ticket from usually the postoffice nearby. If you do it right away law will come an people will flee, hence why I said to wait until the train leave town again.

If you have NAT Type 2 there should be no issue whatsoever and you should never have to DMZ it.

Assuming that's a picture of opening a chest and getting nothing from it, I had that happen on that exact same chest. I whined to rockstar (and linked to a video) and they coughed up a gold bar and $175.

edit: vvvv even if i knew they wouldn't give me anything, i still would have reported it as a bug

Thats exactly what its a picture of. I ain't gonna whine at anybody about it(I have $1k and 50 gold bars atm) I just thought it was exactly what I said it was - a kick in the teeth which I found funny.

No big update today, some stuff from the beta added to the clothing and the amount of gold you get for the dailies is doubled, so once you hit your 28 day streak, you'll get 1 piece of gold per daily you complete.
