UrbicaMortis posted:I quite liked what they did with Michael but I found Franklin a bit dull. Trevor is interesting as a character written to have no dissonance between his actions in the cutscenes and when you take control and murder civilians for fun, but I think it ended up showing that's too one-note for a full game's story. Bully is casting for a sequel right now.

Cultural Marxist posted:I didn’t even know he was a real person. He definitely is. I’ve been replaying GTAIII just to listen to Chatterbox FM when he was at his prime. Him yelling at Fernando to get out of his studio was the best part. Reminds me of an all night playthrough my friends and I did in high school once. We took turns playing the story missions, but I had to do the actual Grand Theft Auto mission because I was the only one who could do it without hitting anything.

Any recaps out there that aren't 32 minutes long and also aren't full of horse cruelty? Seriously what the gently caress was with the last 2 minutes of that video.

This video I saved from the golden age of PS4 Goon GTAO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T97LeXNaMpU epitomizes for me the essence of GTAO which was basically just hangin out. I got back into it again recently and I'll admit the only reason I'm able to do so solo (as most of the crew has moved on to other games) is because of the base of assets I built up doing heists with fellow PS4 goons 2 years ago or so. When I got a bonus at work I used shark cards to buy a yacht, but overall I don't think I've spent more than $100-150 on them over the 2-3 years I've played it cumulatively now. (and I bought the base game for $30 from Target in like 2014.) This one's also a classic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5D7q7hXmmIE

As part of my hype-building week I watched the Hateful Eight on Netflix yesterday. I had no idea the whole 3-hour movie takes place on effectively one set, but it was still so good. I love it when an overlong movie still manages to melt the time away because it's so good. Lots of talking and detective work but still extremely suspenseful since you don't know who's gonna get bloodily blown away next. I also asked my dad, who is huge into our genealogy, what our ancestors were doing in America around the 1890s. Dad's dad's dad's dad was a Lutheran pastor named Heinrich Schulz and eventually became president of the Minnesota district for the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod. Here is a photo of him in his 20s, which should've been around that time: Apparently he once had to escape an anti-German mob on horseback. He started going by Henry around this time. He eventually retired in the late 19-teens and his congregation bought him a Model-T as a retirement present. Dad's mom's dad's dad was named Odin Mathison and came to northwestern Wisconsin from Norway around the 1890s. In this era he began clearing the land for the farm my grandma (Odin's granddaughter) would grow up on. They were not fluent in English at all, but neither was anyone else in the area. Woodeville Wisconsin still has Syttende Mai (17th of May) celebrations to this day. Upper midwest was not so wild at that time I guess. Really hoping to see what they do with the lusher areas that look more Midwesterny. My dad is also a huge train guy (he's a Lutheran pastor too but quit his job from 2000-2002 to work for a model train magazine) so I asked him about that leaked clip of the train robbery, specifically the accuracy of its portrayal with the engineer and tender at the end: "Pretty realistic, except that was probably the brakeman (not engineer) who sat in that "doghouse" on the back of the tender until it was time to manually set the brakes. The so-called 'dog house' is where the brakeman sat to guard the watch of the train. It was heated by a steam radiator from the locomotive."

TheAnomaly posted:bear pelts come from grizzly bears, and they roam the west grizzlies. Probably the East Grizzlies as well, but I usually just run into wolves over there. Black Bears give you Black Bear pelts, and they're primarily in the Black Bone Forest area. They run from you (only large predator that avoids conflict with you as far as I've seen). Wolves spawn in all of these locations as well, and Cougars can spawn in the southern part of the Black Bone Forest area as well, so hunting Black Bears can take some luck (luckily I think you only need two perfect Black Bear Pelts for the clothes). Getting Grizzlies with perfect pelts is a bitch, though... the game says a rifle with express rounds, but that will lower pelt quality. Bow with Poison Arrows then following the thing until it dies is the only way it seems to not lose quality, and they definitely don't shy from a fight. Don't use horses to hunt them, they'll make even the bravest warhorse dump you on your butt when they charge as well. I once saw a cougar attack a black bear in the west grizzlies. Thankfully I was on an abandoned cabin’s porch so it couldn’t get to me right away since he turned to me immediately after killing the bear. It all happened in like 4 seconds. The cougar had a 2-star pelt. The dead black bear pelt was poor, which makes sense given that it died to claws/jaws.

https://www.reddit.com/r/reddeadredemption/comments/a9503x/trust_no_one/ https://www.reddit.com/r/reddeadredemption/comments/a9y7o7/trust_no_one_volume_2/ This is exactly the type of thing that makes RDO so fun. I haven't had experiences exactly like this yet but I have pointed shotguns at people to get them to keep moving, and when it works it's beautiful. I was in a 4-man posse and 2 of us got separated in the dark woods from the rest of them and we found a small campfire (not someone's full camp) we could craft at. A pubbie started to come down the path on his horse pretty slowly, and the campfire was elevated from the path. So I pointed my shotgun at him the entire time he passed while the other posse friend rested at the campfire. After he was far enough away i joined him at the campfire. Not exciting to write out, but exactly the type of PvP experience I'm looking for in RDO.

Empire State posted:Hey JKL! Point your gun in the air (up on D-pad while aiming down sights, I think) and fire off a warning shot. The game will give a message to nearby players not in your posse that "So-and-so has fired a warning shot and will attack if approached," or something to that extent. Nice! I had no idea that dialogue box happens if you do it in online. If you're on PS4 you should add me if you like: mustardeleven (or just join on my session if you're a member of that Obscuridad del Santo group on PS4 or whatever it's called) Speaking of, I joined in on this level 59(!) goon's session through that group last night and he was in this little garden area slaughtering cops as they climbed over a wall. I climbed over the wall, he shot me right away, and then left the session lol

I like to mash R while whipping the control stick side to side and sometimes that throws them off me for a chance to shoot. I managed to do this twice in a row with a cougar. The deep red scratch marks lasted a long time after that before fading away.

Zigmidge posted:loving bully do you just log on to take out your baggage on other people who just want to play??? The whole point of RDO and GTAO is the cat-and-mouse experience. But GTAO eventually got private servers so I'm sure it's forthcoming. Just not soon. I'm imagining doing online stranger missions in a private server and thinking how little payoff there is for taking on the AI enemies in them. Most of the wagon train escort missions only have like two scripted spots for AI enemies--it's almost like they want humans to pick up the slack. Though i guess if you don't need that much risk to feel rewarded (which merits the giant pussies comment), then private servers would be better for you.

I never have my camp up and thus never get charged for upkeep. If I need a campfire I’ll use one in town or after I clear a gang hideout. I do pay upkeep on having three horses though, it’s like $2.50 every time it ticks. You can muck a hand in poker, but I’ve only see it happen once. It’ll actually say “mucked” in the lower left part of the screen for the person who did it.

I honestly hope it never comes because of the redundancy in function vis-a-vis the cripps camp. And also how it's antithetical to the game: GTA's vain consumerism vs. RDR's quaint frontiersmanship. I'm sure T2 wants it to happen eventually, so it probably will, but it's also been such a dripfeed of content overall for RDO that I'm pretty hopeful real estate won't show up for a good while if at all.

My only wish is that they added a cooldown on John Woo diving, because that poo poo can really get out of hand. Enjoy I guess. I think the changes suck. If you want to play a twitchy shooter.

Stooping down into this terrible conversation to say that camps almost always work for me. Sometimes it’ll flash “setting up camp” a few times and if I go a little ways it ends up spawning near where I originally was. Try galloping in any direction while it tries to spawn.

You can try resetting the cache too. I told R* about a visual bug in cinematic mode and they hit me back with this: 1) Press and hold the PlayStation button on your controller 2) Select Turn Off PS4 3) Let the PlayStation 4 fully power down and wait at least 30 seconds 4) Restart the PlayStation 4 5) Hold L1 + R1 while booting up the game Note: This will also reset your brightness setting and choice of language.

Terra-da-loo! posted:I'm still gonna get pissed off when I have a horse loaded with perfect carcasses and one being dragged behind (full hunting wagon), stop to collect a wildflower, and have my horse shot by someone sniping, then get picked off while reviving it. If I didn't lose four carcasses I wouldn't have been even nearly annoyed enough to post. Thank you for pulling through and posting this regardless !! Oh man I had so much fun doing a bounty last night that had nothing to do with the bounty. It was just a single $ one, but I started it in Annesburg and the little four-note theme starts playing right away and continuously once you start it (kinda reminds me of that bass line motif from Inglourious Basterds), even though the target was way out west in the Grizzlies. So I’m trotting along up the hill where the miners are and must’ve brushed past a NPC security guard while in the quick menu because he said—and I quote—“I could blow you away and the law wouldn’t give a drat!!” So I looked backwards while still riding straight and waited to see if he would fire first. He actually did and I popped him simultaneously in the head, got off my horse and took cover behind some crates because like a dozen more guys started coming up the hill. All the while this bounty music still playing and I’m blowing these guys away with the double barreled shotgun as they yell poo poo like “You do know yr gonna die, right?” When the coast was clear I got back on my horse (Appaloosa 4 lyfe) and got on my way to the bounty. It felt so cool.
