Kill more gooderer is really your only option. NPCs typically have a, like, lead in time on competency where they'll miss several shots before starting to hit, so you can take out a fair few of them before they become a threat. Lawmen seem to be the sole exception to this 'mechanic.'

This unlocks Dutch's ledger, next to the donation box at camp. Hope you been dropping in stuff/money, or have extra, because the tools ain't cheap.

What a huge loving mistake that was. 20 boring as gently caress minutes later and I almost lost because I wasn't expecting the shootout at the end. Please tell me the local routes are more reasonable because I honestly never want to do that ever again. It's random if you get a shootout at the end or not. Long distance sales are never worth it and leave you exposed to PvP folks.

I was able to solve both me and my friend's stuttering problem completely by doing this. It's possible that some of these steps are unnecessary, but these instructions from start to finish solved our issue. I'll try to make these instructions as simple as possible This worked perfectly, thanks!

I ride like the wind and murder quick. Sometimes I lose a guy sometimes I don’t. A lot of the time they’re targeting my buyers so I try to pull agro by standing in the lot of them and killing them left and right without spilling a drop of blood on my dress. I’m on Xbox though and it sounds like PC has a couple hiccups with graphics and things. Ymmv?

My kingdom for a horse that isn't scared of alligators. I was down in the bayou looking for a treasure chest and once my horse freaked out once it just ping ponged ceaselessly between gators until I wanted to leave.

I had a horse get so spooked once in a gunfight that he bolted from Valentine all the way to Upper Grizzlies. I never was able to track him down. It's the only time it has happened in like 3x single player playthroughs.

I played online for like ten hours straight today with zero issues; for bonus insanity, it was all over steam in-home streaming to the laptop in the living room with a steam controller plugged into it. If anyone is having trouble with shadowplay or steam playing nice, it might be your rdr2/launcher exe's having admin permissions while the other programs don't. I managed to get shadowplay and steam streaming to work fine after I took admin permissions off the exe's. Also did someone mention screenshots? (Airgoons Blazed in Saddles represent)

Same name, same saddle...but now brown with a different black mane I've had my horse change sex after a stranger mission. Female when I bought her, female when the mission started but when I respawned afterwards... balls. The horse eventually reverted to a she once it de-spawned and I called it again. Hakarne posted:I just tried a Free Roam Event and they don't seem worth it at all. They use your own stash of ammo, degrade your weapons ridiculously fast, then potentially drop you on the other side of the map. And you get like... $10-$20 and half a piece of gold unless you win? I feel like they need to bump up the rewards, I'll probably try them once or twice and just not bother unless there's a stupid fun game mode or something. The only free roam events I do are Trade Route, Salvage, Fishing, Wild Animal Kills, and sometimes Master Archer if I really want to get the bow kills daily challenge. Trade Route and Salvage are PvE and at the very least you win supplies for Cripps or some collector items. The rest are all different variations of the same lovely design: a level 500 min-maxer (usually shirtless) sucking down tonics and locking down a runaway victory in the first minute.

Went back to Valentine stable and my dappled black is completely gone. Not the worst bug to have but it's a bummer. I had maxed out bond etc and was hoping to use her till the end. Edit: gently caress it, reloaded an older save and got her back. Well worth the few lost hours in the long run. Noirex fucked around with this message at 18:20 on Nov 12, 2019 |

In online other players see your horse's name when they're in Eagle Eye and looking at the tracks you leave behind. So obviously I'm gonna name my next horse Wendigo or something so they get "Track Wendigo" button prompts

Please tell me the local routes are more reasonable because I honestly never want to do that ever again. Cripps' idea of "local" is better but sometimes it will still give you an actual 10 minute ride. From what I can tell yo uget the same amount of trader XP regardless if you deliver 1, 50, or 100 goods, so if you're grinding the level you can just do deliveries non stop if you pick off some game on the way back to camp. Resupply missions give a whopping 500 trader xp and 5 materials so you can almost immediately go out for another delivery too. Hakarne posted:I mentioned it in my rage post earlier, but is there some trick to keeping the chucklefuck buyers (or any NPCs really) alive in missions like that? The only two missions I’ve actually failed have been because the idiot NPCs get gunned down before I can merc the 15+ enemies that spawn. For the local routes if there's a shootout specifically, just tokyo drift the cart into the dropoff point through the enemies, and then you can take care of the bandits from a ton of cover with little risk. I've never had more than one of the trading post guys die. I think if you hold off and try to pick them off from a distance theyre just gonna beeline for the trader NPCs. I've lost some of the random events like defending camps because I tried to pick off from a distance, making yourself an available target even if you're in cover usually works the best for keeping any npc's alive. Unrelated: Is it me or is the underweight/overweight system in Online dumb as hell? I'm chain-eating pork and venison at camp and can never seem to climb out of underweight. Big Game meat seems to work but do I really have to shovel 5 pieces of big game in my craw each time I log on just so I don't turn into a walking skeleton?

You know, they put so much detail and immersion in much of the game only to drag you out with something stupid. My cowboy was sitting by the fire, enjoying a cup coffee after a long day. I decide to pull out a fine cigar I found on some hapless corpse. Arthur lights it up, takes one puff, and then tosses it.

It's because their real purpose is to refill your deadeye not to be a sim which is counterproductive to such a sim-like game otherwise.

Thanks I’ll try that next time. I was running around the perimeter flanking and killing all the dudes and they just obliterated the traders. I was dropping them fairly quickly but it felt like I’d need a machine gun to actually kill them fast enough before all the buyers ended up dead. Time to give my LeMat another workout, I’m loving that gun. Maybe I should invest in a better repeater too, is there a good one for taking out larger groups of enemies? I haven’t had any issues with weight, I just eat/drink something when any one of my cores get at or below half and I’ve maintained average weight. Maybe mixing it up helps too? I eat a lot of stuff I scavenge (canned veggies and fruit, liquor, etc) along with game meat. Clearly they need an in-game dietician.

I stole a hat and I kept it... certain hats *can* be stolen and stay in your inventory. If it's flashing white on the ground, put it on quick! Got me the Conductor's Cap at the train/stage/mailstop near Emerald Ranch, while repeatedly jacking the stage for quick payouts at the Wagon Fence. Now I have a nice near-fully-custom Schofield to play with. (Didn't chop the barrel, they look better long. Too bad I can't just buy two, for Charlie Prince reasons. I want that jacket, too.

Yes this makes me mad. I wish you could hold a button to keep smoking. You don’t get to interactively eat at saloons either like you do at camp. Boooo. Different topic: I know this is just video game logic, but it feels pretty janky to ride up into the snow and realise that your camp in the opening was, like, five minutes away from Valentine and Blackwater. Or ride out from shithole nowhere and be in Saint Denis before you know it. The map seems small/crowded to me. I want some big open American spaces, there are always millions of roads and carts around me (usually scaring off whatever I’m trying to hunt)

That's gonna be a you problem. The map is as big or bigger than Los Santos and is trying to not only cram like 5 different states into one but also simulate being surrounded by vast expanses of nothing and frankly, accomplishes both very well. I cannot for a second harsh on rockstar's map artists because nobody else is doing what they do.
