An undead nightmare event in online for Holloween or something would own I want the crazyness to go towards a heists direction tbh, like robbing a Steamboat or pulling off a heist of the Lamoyne bank, or raiding Guarma or something, though I don't know how they can square that with the honor system. I also want them to implement a system where honorable players bounty hunt dishonorable players, because that sounds neat. I had a wierd random event happen a week ago where I became wanted by an enemy posse for 5 minutes and had to survive; it could be like that.

So I have no idea what is going on, but I have raided 2 hideouts and gotten 2 treasure maps from them. As I was riding to the next treasure, bandits spawned and I killed them, and I got ANOTHER treasure map. I have gotten 3 maps in like 20 minutes, and 350+ dollars and 2.50 in gold. ...I think Rockstar may have broken something

Vox Nihili posted:I think the idea is that items that improve your effectiveness (guns, horses, etc.) are always level-locked even if you have gold to avoid pay to win. Cosmetics are never level-locked because they don't make you any stronger. I could be wrong though, and the fishing lures technically make the game easier but aren't level-locked if you pay gold. The only cosmetic item that gives advantage of some kind are the winter coats, for the Grizzlies Anybody got the bison coat? Is that a cold weather jacket? Is there a way to tell what individual clothing items count as cold weather treated?

Last few times I played I get one shot killed way too often and they often downed my horse forcing me to use horse revivers or nag it back to the stables. Half the time I picked up my horse they made me pay for the vet fees. You can just leave and go to another server instantly though?

Hobo Clown posted:I forget what exactly Micah said but I got the impression that Dutch only recently showed up, not that they had been rolling together since the end of Chapter 6. The newspaper articles you read about Micah's gang terrorizing the countryside only ever mention Micah, and I think Dutch was well-known enough to have been included if anyone believed he was a part of it. He looked like hell so I figured he'd been hiding out on his own or with his Native American gang and only now came to get some of his Blackwater money. He might have even heard the same rumor Sadie did which is why the timing worked out. I actually think Dutch is totally there to kill Micah and is conflicted about revenge, because he knows deep down Arthur was right, and he has been hiding out the last few years tormented by the fact he watched his best friend/son die and did nothing. John and Sadie being there complicates things, because he deflects everything falling apart to John not being loyal enough. I feel like when Micah dismisses Arthur's death, and John asks Dutch to "say something," that is what makes Dutch get angry and pull the trigger. He even tells John when he asks him what he is doing there "same as you I suppose." He knew exactly why John was there. TulliusCicero fucked around with this message at 20:06 on Dec 17, 2018 |

Hobo Clown posted:I like your read of that final scene a lot better. Dutch would likely be allowed in and could walk past the rest of the gang, and probably assumed he was going to be killed as soon as he shot Micah. Dutch got his revenge but John & Sadie robbed him of his suicide. I didn't think about the suicide angle myself but it makes sense to me with context about the first game. Dutch seems conflicted about Arthur giving up his life to save John's, who he now hates (or at the very least dislikes), but he is willing to let John go about his life because Arthur wanted that. When John tries to thank Dutch for saving him and Sadie, he just gives that dead, blank stare at him. Dutch never goes after John directly, and even in Red Dead Redemption, never seems to want to actively kill him (until he goes after him directly) or hurt his family. Dutch not putting up a fight and committing suicide spares John from having to pull the trigger, and gives Dutch the peace of death he wanted from killing Micah and dying there, and dying on his own terms. Dutch in RDR seems like a man lost without purpose, fighting back against a society he sees as destructive with no real plan and it makes now, because Dutch wanted to die on that mountain after killing Micah. Dutch and Arthur are such well written characters; just amazing levels of detail and pathos.

Money is easy as hell to get now. Took advantage of the way better character creator and made a character that didn't look like they had mumps, then just ran the new story stuff and got some maps in between and I must have made 2000+ dollars, and I'm already level 14 with most of my guns I had back, and a swag poncho and bolero hat. I just wish I could have ammo bandoliers now...

Fade to black, load the character editor. Keep the stranger active so you can always go back and fine tune your character. There are going to be career options? That sounds pretty cool tbh

JustaDamnFool posted:Anyone got any tips on making a online character with a on hosed up face? I got a free face change coupon but I don't want to blow it. (In-game shots, but lines on tv due to phone camera) I made her with the help of my wife, after dicking around with the character creator for an hour or two. It's really not that bad once you get the hang of it and get an idea of what you want your character to look like You want to always really define the chin structure, it helps the whole face, regardless of what heritage preset you do. You also want to define the lips, keep the eye and nose ratio in a good place as well as the mouth, and make sure the Jawline matches up with rest of the chin and mouth. Cheeks should be defined somewhere towards the middle, but don't go sullen or heavy, it will make your character look like they have mumps For male or female, find a good defining feature of the face you want to emphasize, and pick your hairstyle/ beard around that. For woman use light makeup, except for the feature you want to draw attention to, like the eyes or lips, and apply that a little heavier (wife taught me this lol) For male characters, use beards and facial hair to define weak jaws or give the character some personality. And for god sakes go into the complexion settings and turn most of that poo poo to none or as minimal as possible, you will look a lot less like an oatmeal raisin cookie Hope this helps!
