webmeister posted:I’m not that guy, but I’ve been playing fine on an i5. I was getting the stuttering pretty constantly in the prologue, but it diminished when I got to the open world proper. The first few times in Valentine were awful, but now I’m mostly done with chapter 2 and I get stutters maybe once an hour if that. This is my experience as well. I can't really play online because of the stuttering. The stuttering isn't frequent, but if you stutter too hard it disconnects you and shoots you back to the main menu. In GTA5 this would result in a solo lobby, but not in this. Luckily the single player seems like its going to keep me busy for quite some time. As someone who didn't bother to follow anything regarding Red Dead 2 because I don't have a console, this game is everything I wanted and expected it to be. To me it feels like Red Dead 1 was kind of a prototype, and this game is the logical conclusion of GTA5 and Read Dead 1. That's really all I could ask for. My biggest complaint is that every thing is so slow paced that I couldn't imagine replaying it any time soon. Like drat the first couple hours are barely interactive at all. The first time through its all excellent and fresh but becomes a huge slog if you're forced to re-do large portions due to, say, a crash.

What's the quickest way to draw your gun on PC?

peer posted:probably in mspaint I tried a controller out of curiosity and discovered that if you just hold Right Trigger then you dude quickly takes out a gun and immediately starts blasting. Mouse/Keyboard is inconsistent. Sometimes I just need to press Right Click to aim, other times I need to press Right Click and then a prompt comes up at the bottom telling me to press LEFT CLICK while holding right click, just to aim.

LASER BEAM DREAM posted:TAB for your previous, 1 for your pistol. Long arms are mapped to 8, but that’s a bit of a reach if you’re still trying to move. For that I have been using the TAB wheel. This sucks. I had to make a second bind for "Take Out Gun" or whatever, because Tab is too finicky. If I really need to quick draw I just end up panicking and bringing up the weapon wheel. Your explanation isn't accounting for the fact that you still have to press AIM and SHOOT in the scenario you described. With a controller its just point and mash the trigger.

You have to specify Free Aim in your control settings, so that you only end up in Free Aim lobbies. GTAV was the same way. On the other hand, the mouse aim feels floatier than I would like, especially after playing something hyper responsive like Call of Duty. It almost feels like the entire game was built around the idea that you were going to be locking on to folks.

Capn Beeb posted:So should I just not bother with Process Lasso as well? I was using a different program that did the same thing, BEM. It made the stuttering happen less frequently but when it did happen, it would result in a crash. Now I still get the hitch every 15 minutes or so but it never crashes. The thing thats making performance tips so hard to sift through is, Chapter 1 seems to be way more performance heavy than Chapter 2, and then Valentine seems to have problems of its own. And then some of these so called solutions have problems that don't immediately present themselves.

So as an i5 user I think I may have just solved my stuttering issue, knock on wood. Here's the major steps I took. -Use DX12 instead of Vulkan. Vulkan was fine until I got to Valentine, then it started to crash constantly. DX12 fixed this right up. -DX12 didn't seem to help my framerate... UNTIL I enabled Triple Buffering, then it became smooth (except for the stuttering issue) -I'm using a program similar to Process Lasso called BEM. Here are the specific instructions about what to do with this: https://www.reddit.com/r/PCRedDead/comments/dta9du/4c4t_bes_may_have_fixed_textures_and_hanging/ I've never used Process Lasso but it sounds like some of you were having issues with it. -Lock your framerate to 30fps which I was doing anyway because I can't achieve 60fps. In nVidia control panel, Select "Manage 3D Settings"->"Program Settings" find "Red Dead Redemption 2 (rdr2.exe)" and set "Vertical Sync" to "Adaptive (half refresh rate)" In RDR2 graphics settings turn on V-Sync. This may not be necessary depending on how powerful your rig is, but I felt it necessary to include it in case there is a chance that its a mandatory part of this method. I suspect that by limiting your framerate via a third party program the game still thinks it has breathing room instead of just locking up at 100%, but that is just pure speculation on my part.

I've found that in order to fix the i5 stuttering you need to use both BES and Process Lasso at the same time. 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 -Start BES. Start Process Lasso. Start Red Dead. -On BES, Click Target. Near the middle are some boxes that say Friend, Unknown, Foe. Select friend. -Find RDR2.exe. Click Limit/Watch. Click Yes. With RDR2.exe selected, click Friend. Now go to the slidey bar beneath that and set that to 2%. -On to Process Lasso. Locate RDR2.exe. Right click, select CPU Limiter. Fill in the following: When CPU Usage is: 94% For a period of (LEAVE BLANK) seconds Reduce by this many cores: 2 For a period of 1 second Click Add Rule. That should do it. If anyone would like to take these steps and report back I would be very happy to hear the results. Hope this helps you guys!

Got the trader license. Tried my first long distance route. 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.

UnknownMercenary posted:So has the patch actually dropped yet? I didn't notice any downloads and trying to play at all gives me stutter so I'm thinking no, but I wanted to be sure. Negative. Also the new Nvidia drivers really tanked my performance so I rolled them back. Luckily that was super easy to do.

So does anyone else kinda not feel like playing online anymore now that Free Aim lobbies are gone? Am I overreacting? So far every Free Roam event I've done has just been me getting killed within seconds by someone deathmatching, regardless of the objective.

I was one of the people mentioning the drivers, I'm on the newest drivers right now. I am not quite at the performance that I was right at launch but it's fine. I feel like a performance dip happened after the patch that felt a lot like the Nvidia dip, so I don't think an older driver would really help in this case. Maybe though

Also PSA, there doesn't seem to be any downside to being in Defensive Mode. It's not like Passive Mode in GTA, you can still attack people. Its just like a buff vs other players that you get for not being hostile

ChuckDeNomolos posted:i5 user reporting in, tried the launcher argument but it just leads to CTD's instead of stuttering. frustrating because i would be able to work with the stutter for now, but causes disconnects in online so i can't do any mission or session for much longer, and once the stuttering starts, it gets worse even after restarting the game. This happens to me if I set my RDR2.exe to have High CPU Priority... is there a chance you've done that?

Hihohe posted:I always headcanon that doing some less than lethal things like punching a guy or shooting them in the hand doesn't kill them. They either pass out or know when to play dead. That X on the map ain't fooling me. Sometimes when you punch someone it registers as a Knock Out instead of a kill, though. It will count as alive for bounty purposes.

When people say they make money via collector, they mean they stare at an interactive map/cheat sheet and go from blip to blip for what I assume is several hours. Probably the least fun thing I can think of, aside from Long Distance Trade runs

I kinda feel like you either like this game or you don't. They are definitely not hiding the fun content in the roles, I feel like the idea of getting money to get to the 'fun part' is just going to lead to constant disappointment. I can't figure out how to convey this idea without sounding like a huge dork, so I apologize for that
