Really hope they actually implement gangs or whatnot in the future. Even just a group camp that's up when one of you is on and you can contribute to it. E: Noticed that the game automatically puts you in offensive mode when you log in. This is even if you set it to defensive in a previous session. its all nice on rice fucked around with this message at 21:18 on May 15, 2019 |

Ainsley McTree posted:Defensive mode is a good addition but it still feels like a half step. Ostensibly people who choose that option are doing it because they don’t want to be murdered by strangers, but if I’m reading the notes correctly, it stops just short of that; you can’t be lassoed, and you can’t be auto-aimed at, but strangers can still murder you if they want it enough. Why not just make you immune to open world pvp entirely (outside of events where that’s part of the game)? Eh, it seems to be working so far. I've been in multiple towns, and there are a lot more players just hanging out. In the past, it's always just been constant gunfights.

I didn’t have that option any where - is it level locked? I’m only like a 10. I got offed by someone in Saint Denis and it was an option on death, below parlay. They were full red, though.

I'm pretty sure for sidearm you just have to get an offhand holster. I thought you could always carry two longarms, though? Just select them on/near your horse.

I can see them taking a cut of your gold if you make a new character so people don't just keep rerolling and stockpiling it off the tutorial.

Haven't tested it yet, but it sounds like the game not saving custom outfits might be due to a piece of clothing being from an outfit. Using a custom outfit with only purchased pieces should save it on logout.

Gotta say, my biggest annoyance has to be the disconnects. Just spent 45 minutes hunting, and got DCed. Now everything on my horse is gone. You'd think they'd have stable server connections by now.

Sheepskin jacket seems to keep my character warm up north. Low level requirement and only something like $75. They definitely made changes to clothing warmth, though. At launch you couldn't go north without high level warm clothing.

Between the random crashes and disconnects, I don't even bother hunting anything larger than small animals and birds. In the event I find a three star buck, I just drop the pelt on the ground after skinning.

Looks like the glitch is usable with any carcass. People have reported having exotic birds on the side and a panther on the back and being able to dupe all of them. Cougars just have a high sell value.

Kill and skin a lot of animals. Clean and feed your horse. Pretty sure you get honor for choosing the "good" option in missions, so replay those and always choose that option. Do open world missions (if the npcs will actually give any that is lol) that gain you honor.

Friends and I had some crazy bugs last night. No random encounters. No NPCs spawning (outside of vendors). When bandit camps actually spawned, they were untargetable and unkillable. They also ignored us. Got some nostalgic SWG vibes.

I've been playing for a couple hours without a DC or or CTD so far. Stranger missions seem to be actually working, too. Have seen a number of wagons without any people on them, though. Those horses sure are dedicated to their work.

I think there's a KKK random encounter where if you let them go on with their little get together, one of them lights themselves on fire when trying to ignite the cross. That or it was me throwing a fire bottle. Can't quite remember.

Frog Act posted:Word, for larger game, does ammo type play a factor? like I shot a bear twice to kill it with the Springfield using express ammo and it didn’t diminish the pelt quality, so I’m assuming the bigger bullets are fine, but it was a headshot I think Once they're unlocked, legendary animals aren't that difficult. Just unload into them because the pelt quality isn't a factor. I find a Springfield is good for most larger game. A single headshot does it for deer, elk, sheep, etc. Coyotes and other animals of that size always annoyed me until I realized a repeater was the way to go and not the varmint rifle. its all nice on rice fucked around with this message at 06:05 on Jul 12, 2019 |

Well here's a new one for online: walked out of the general store in strawberry, and suddenly got the "witness investigating" warning. By the time I figured out what was going on, I was wanted for animal cruelty. Someone had killed a domestic cat and put it on my horse.

Churchill posted:So I haven't played online since about a month after the release, got kind of burned out on the grinding and the lack of content. Is it better now? Also what else has changed, and is it too late to get back in or does everyone have like flying horses with machine guns now? Mainly I like to do missions and poo poo with my friends without bothering to much with the PvP stuff. The new defensive mode makes people ganking you less likely, but it's still A Thing. For some reason the game defaults to offensive mode. Change it under game options (left on the d-pad). Random encounters are much more common now, and make the game world fill a bit more alive. I had to rescue someone who was about to be buried alive in the Saint Denis graveyard. It was the middle of the night and storming. Was actually pretty cool. They've added a few more story missions, and you can queue to join random players' missions as well. Stranger missions are more reliable than they were. A lot less of you showing up to someone listed as having a mission available only for nothing to happen. I've mostly had fun tooling around with my friends running stranger missions or hunting, with the occasional killing rampage in Valentine.
