if you continually stealthily rob or murder people with no witnesses will the town react? Put up more lights or not travel down dark alleys as much because the town isn't safe? in mgs5 eventually they'd beef up security as a response to the results of your stealthy work

The CO would orders helmets if you were blasting everyone's brains out, I always liked that.

I just hope they aren't as cynical as they are in regular GTA. That's kind of what made RDR more tolerable is that they weren't up their own rear end about how everything sucks and actually liked the period they were talking about, even if they didn't shy away from how the cowboy age was kind of poo poo, but that it was on its way out. Then again, this is a game that's likely the fall of the van der Linde gang.

I'm hoping that instead of Marsden's unwilling federal tool we get Arthur being a full on narc and he rides into the sunset at the end with many, many bags of US dollars.

1899 has a fuckton of cool guns. Automatics are just a few years old, so there’s over a dozen designs in various states of success (the most famous being the Mauser C96, the Borchardt C93, and the Bergmann). There’s lots of revolvers from the Civil War and shortly after, from cartridge conversions of percussion cap guns and Merwin & Hulbert revolvers to the Colt M1892 and Remington 1875.

One crazy gun is the Tranter Man-Stopper.



It fires a .577 cartridge with ballistics similar to .45 ACP but with a bullet twice as heavy and 28% wider.

Wasn't there some insanely weird .50 derringer style one shot thing around?

Like it was more designer for being ambushed by a bear...

I noticed this on that hour-long xbox video last night as well. Self-defense doesn't exist apparently. Given the time period, this is dumb, but it's also annoying from a gameplay standpoint because anyone within visible range will immediately haul rear end at max speed across the countryside desperately trying to tell someone about the evil man who defended himself.

At the first sign of anyone not liking me, I'm putting my drat mask on.

Presumably you can punch him out. If you draw a gun and kill someone who wants to punch you, most civilised countries will lock you up for a long time.

I don't know if I'm actually enjoying this game. I just spent my evening playing and it's now 2am, but all I really recall is pressing X a lot to try and will my horse to another gameplay segment. I've done a bunch of massive gunfights and I'm breaking down the gang camp to move.

I'm looking forward to seeing what happens but I'm not sure the great graphics (and they are great) are enough to justify me tapping X for 40 hours.
