I read and hear all these complaints about lack of content, payout, etc from RDRO. I can agree with this to a point, but where most people lose me is when they compare it to GTAO. GTAO has been out for 5 years. You can't fairly compare the two games. I think people have lost their memories of when GTAO first launched. While I agree, there were more missions when it first launched than are available in RDRO, it's not like they were overflowing. Also, lets not forget the payouts those missions had. They were just as bad as RDRO's before the economy patch. Hell, I couldn't tell you how many days were spent running nothing but Violent Ducts over and over and over and over and over because it was the only decent paying mission. As for content, lets not forget, it took 1.5 YEARS to get Heists added into GTAO. Heists were a talking point of R*'s from the beginning. I think people need to slow their roll and attention spans a bit for RDRO. Of course, I also think R* could be a little more forthcoming in both content area, as well as the information area. Just my 2 cents. That I got off that NPC I just shot in the face.

I would like to see some things added to really immerse us into the game in a roleplaying kind of way. Right now, I think the game is in a barebones form being in beta but I can see them adding a lot of things to really push that RPG aspect of the game.

Folks digging around in files found placeholders for properties numbered 1 through 10 with this format: This was back in October 2018. There were also similar placeholders for various types of wagons, etc. ....so, this could be a possible sign of things to come that they are planning.

....just glad items like explosive ammo are severely limited.

Hi Goober, First of all, welcome. This site is a wealth of information and generally speaking, the community is a great group of folks. Please note however, that this is a fan site and not a Rockstar official forum. If you wish to provide feedback on the beta (and I encourage you to), here is a link: https://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadredemption2/online/feedback?step=f2e50892 There is also a lot of information at RDR2.org that can help you overcome the issue some have with what we call griefers and trolls. I would also recommend trying to seek out online friends who you share similar interests with so you can explore and do activities with a group vs. solo. RDO is much more rewarding that way and safer with the added security a posse provides. https://www.rdr2.org/forums/clubs/ If you're on PS4, feel free to join ours (my PSN Community is linked within): Please note that R* has also announced new anti-griefing measures that they will be impletning soon that will hopefully mitigate the issue: https://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/60804/Red-Dead-Online-Beta-Update Hope this helps.

I think it's rediculous that I have a hundred dollars in hides on my horse cone into a town to sell them n get shot by some a hole n bam all my hides are gone and I'm out of that money maybe make it so we can have a friendly Lobby or something bcuz this is not fair spend two hours hunting n lose everything because someone wants to be a jerk n shoot you for nothing

A little cave built into a small cliff side. And in that little cave.... A certain time-traveling Delorean.

Not me. I hear other players chatting about finding all kinds of pamphlets and nuggets, and I think they said clearing hideout s. Ain't happenin' for me.

Hell No! Cause then it is a matter of time before it would be put into the game and then we'll have players flying over and dropping dynamite out of the door. No Thanks!

WehTuFat's (now my primary gamertag) a female character whom I named Kyenne Peppers

Might depend on how far away you spawn from your horse. Maybe that's why some griefers kill my horse when I'm loaded with pelts.

I name mine after alcoholic drinks... When I played a guy it's Jose Cuervo, Horse is Tequila, when I play a girl it's Koko Lopez (A spin on the coco Lopez drink mix). Koko also means black foot, or dark in native American if I'm not mistaken. I tried to make them spanish/native American looking.

I hate to tell you this Chris but mine is named Hedley Lamar

A building kit for single player? Log, Craftsman, Victorian, commercial style prefabs. Fences, plant material, road building, bridges etc. Fallout for pioneers. Marston gets a house, I want a house. Watering his garden doesnt benefit me. Integrate farm products into the economy. Raise my own pigs to sell to the butcher. Get me some farmer pants and let me whistle the Green Acres song while I scoop up cow sh!t.

Should make level 90 later today so when I buy the relevant pamphlets I will post a list if nobody else does 😉

I think Anthem blows rdrO off its socks. I'm waiting for it,when its out i put rdr2 under a rock next to gtav.

You're right, it isn't a big deal. ....and certainly nothing you should get grief over IMO. I'll move it now. Welcome to the forums btw. It's good to have you here.

...and no, I don't mean my ex-wife laying on the ground. I'm talking about a good ol' fashioned get together with all the knee-slappin' and shine drinkin' and swingin' your pardner dancing you can handle. Think this will be a possibility when Ranches become available for purchase ( I assume at some point they will )?

Thank you, I had no idea and I did so much searching lol. Thanks!

Unfortunately mate we have these tossers in the game. I don't know what level you are if you play on PS4 send me friend request. dredd_fan

You can also just go fishing at Quaker's Cove near Blackwater or up at O'Creaghs Run by Hamish's hut. At QC you get steelhead trout and sockeye salmon at OCR. They are $2.50 each. The max is 10 fish you can carry. At these locations you can also catch rock bass, smallmouth bass, perch, bluegill and both types of pickerels. 10 of each will net you in total about $65. The cool thing about this method is if a player shoots you. You will keep the fish you have caught and lose nothing. I find hunting too limiting and of course don't do it, for the reasons you have outlined above.

I am going to do this tonight. Thanks man. I been having so many issues when I am just trying to hunt. If I am not getting killed, I am getting trolled and it is annoying as hell. Like I have to always have a few friends online with me just to be able to hunt. They have to watch my back and vice versa.

I feel you dude. You will find people here who aren't like that online. I know exactly what you mean. I love the hunting aspect of the game and I am always getting screwed over by immature players who got nothing better to do. It can be rather annoying.

Thanks but it won't make a bit of difference unless more do too. https://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadredemption2/online/feedback?step=f2e50892

Good call but he's asking about craftable ammo. Could be out of curiosity for defensive purposes and/or maybe hasn't attained the level yet, etc. I recall hearing that explosive ammo is limited to something around 10 rounds per weapon. Can't say the same for split ammo, etc.

On ps4 you have to push square to enable matchmaking. Simply have all posse members ready up ,if random gets in push left on thumb pad to view players , select random and vote to kick. All members must vote quickly. Hope this helps.

As of right now we don't know all of their plans. Like with GTAO, they had campaign dlcs and scrapped them to persue PvP options, they needed players to focus on Shark Cards and not on DLCs.

Elected officials--at any level-- who promote and protect illegal activity should be criminally charged.

Hey bud we have found a way to have the server all to yourself. Simply start a teddy Brown mission and don't follow Harley up the trail. He will stay put untill you return to him. Freeing you up to hunt , fish . pick herbs , or whatever you fancy for as long as you like ! You need everyone on the same tactic thoe. If not your cup of tea join us at western avengers posse or ghostly guns posse. We play on est time. Ps4. Carry on good sir !

Good stuff bro ! I'm with you that these names should show in game !

Make sure you're telling Rockstar how you feel: https://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadredemption2/online/feedback?step=f2e50892

That. It's still a beta.

Just have to be patient. There will be more added to the game. Rockstar wants this game to be a success and be a longterm earning platform. They will be able to do this through online and offline DLC.

You can't compare the two for the simple fact that RDRO is NOT a complete game. I see and hear it all the time. People are saying GTAO is "way better" but they are not giving the devs a chance to even finish the game. They opened it up rather than making us wait another 4 to 6 months. I think that was rather generous on their part.

If you're looking to start anew and play from start to finish as disreputable, now would be the time while online is still in its infancy. It'll probably be a few more weeks before we get any kind of substantial content update. If you're not in a rush to unlock everything online, there's no need to power level. That's why I just play a little here and there while theres nothing new, only 46 right now online.

what burns me up are the idiots that don't understand what racism is but yell at people for being racist. my favorite (if you can call it that) "Your racist for talking about Muslims", no that's a religion not a race.....

There is much more to come. I would suggest reading through the Beta Updates on R*s Newswire site if you want to catch up on all the news that has so far been shared with the community: https://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/tags/716 Just remember that RDO is a work in progress and still in development. It's not the same as other console games folks may be used to where betas are mainly to help market the game and stress test servers. ....with few (if any) changes made by release a couple weeks or so later.

Cannot say enough good things about this game. It was so worth the money. I cannot stop playing. I have played through to the Epilogues now four times and have just started a fifth game. I will probably never have 100% completion as there are so many challenges I just haven't gotten to yet. Wow .. Rockstar .. all I can say is WOW .. what a game. Lengthy post warning - ramblings that no one will care about but I want to do it any way - LOL Be Careful Where You Sleep .. Some of these areas are just plain creepy and the background music doesn't help either .. LOL .. on my last play through I found myself in what seemed to be a very peaceful and green part of the map somewhere near the Elysian Pool (I had just caught a legendary fish) and it was getting quite late so I decided to have Arthur make camp. As he was about to brew some coffee … WTF .. I lost control of Arthur and found these two nasty dudes pointing guns at him and threatening to shoot him if he ever made camp there again. They literally came right up behind him. I never had this happen before on the previous plays, most likely because I just hadn't been in that area at that time of the evening before .. and it scared the holy crap out of me. I was not expecting that. Well Done Rockstar … LOL serves me right for taking for granted this camping in the wilderness thing. I, of course, had Arthur deliberately make camp again and this time they came up and started shooting so we gunned them both down, looted them and dumped their corpses a fair bit away so he wouldn't have to sleep next to them. Talk about AHHHHHH moment. A Horse Is A Horse .. So many things have been posted about the horses and I have to say that I am very glad there are so many different types available. I want to try them all actually. I did catch and break the white Arabian but after riding her around for awhile I don't think she is as much fun as the American standardbred. Also, she is quite small and Arthur looks really odd on her (or at least to me any way). Once bonded, the standardbred is a great horse to ride and is quite suitable for the majority of the tasks you have in the basic story mode. This horse has managed to not dump Arthur during some pretty stressful and chaotic moments in the game. The exception is the exploding wagon the Lemoyne raiders throw your way but it is forgivable. In the beginning, when you first go to Valentine with Hosea and buy Arthur a horse I actually spend the 150.00 right off and get the dappled palomino American standardbred. This is the horse that I have Arthur ride for the majority of the game and at the very end. I sell the brown and white Tennessee walker that you get from Adler Ranch in Chapter One and I ignore the free horses that are available if you have the Ultimate Edition. I ignore them because you cannot later sell them until way late in the game and they take up stable space. I like to keep stable space available in case I come across a horse I think I would like Arthur to ride around on for awhile. So far I have had Arthur ride the grey Thoroughbred (stolen after Charles and Arthur kill the scumbag bison hunters), a splashed overo blk & white paint horse (stolen from a guy camping near the beach below Flatneck station), the Andalusian (purchased from the stables near Strawberry), the white Arabian (caught near Lake Isabella in the West Grizzlies), the black Arabian and gold Turkoman (both purchased at the livery in Saint Denis) and a few others as and when I feel like a change up. I even stole the buckskin standardbred from the house robbery with Javier .. he was tethered behind the main house. I am just really partial to the standardbred and I am a creature of habit. Now .. in this latest game I am playing I stumbled across a wild solid black American standardbred while camping near Hanging Dog Ranch. I was so happy. Caught her, broke her, threw Arthur's saddle on her and then made a straight run to the nearest stable to make sure I didn't lose her .. so for this new game I have both Palomino and solid black standardbreds … so much fun. I might now sell the white Arabian as I don't think I will use her this game. If I could have one wish, it would be that we could have more stable space or at least be able to own as many horses as we wanted at Beecher's Hope. To each his or her own for this game and there is a horse for everyone .. so brilliant. Guns .. My favourite guns .. Lancaster repeater (except for hunting), dual wielding the sawed off shotguns (except when shooting bottles off the two brother's heads or disarming Jamie after the chase from the Chelonians - don't do that as they all die instantly from the scatter), and Otis Miller's golden revolver which I really want Arthur to have. I wish Arthur could go to New Austin .. at least to finish hunting for legendary animals and fish, find the remaining dinosaur bones and to get that damn golden gun etc. Scary Hype .. Read about all of the creepy cabins, most of which I had not gone in to before and decided to just suck it up and go in to some of them whether I was scared or not. Really not so bad. Echo's Vetter was probably the one that made me jump the worst but .. all of you know why .. LOL .. and then I read some postings about Fir Rise and of the creepy voices and evil laughter. People were chatting back and forth about what could be going on in the barn you cant get into. I went there and immediately realized it is Deborah MacGuiness - the crazy dinosaur lady. It is not so creepy any more actually and it did dawn on me that she does tell Arthur where to send the bones and mentions Fir Rise. Can't believe I forgot about that until I got there. I actually like Deborah MacGuiness and love the bone challenge. Now the one that does creep me out is the freaking taxidermist. That lady is a nutter. The squirrel challenge is quite hysterical, however. Wishes .. things I would love to see added to the story mode More Arthur DLC .. I don't want to stop playing as Arthur. Sorry John but I never played RDR and so I was never attached to John's character. I love Arthur and try to play as much of the game and complete as many of the challenges as Arthur as I can. I, therefore, want to be able to enter New Austin as Arthur - doesn't have to be Blackwater but areas where we can enter and pick up the things we need to complete a couple of the challenges. I would like Arthur to see Deborah MacGuiness again. I did see someone's video of Arthur meeting Deborah again but I cant figure out how they did that when Arthur cant get in to New Austin without being gunned down. If I am missing a trick here can someone help … ; ) More Black Belle and Arthur scenes. That is one cool lady and I think she and Arthur could have had some adventures. I love what he writes about her in his journal. Maybe they could do a few DLC missions .. like Arthur saves her from hanging and they go hide out, rob a few trains, banks and so on … maybe she could bust him out of jail .. dunno .. just really like her character together with him. That could go well with Arthur going to New Austin. Maybe he goes there to help her out. **hint hint Rockstar More stable space for more horses Being able to sell to the fence the extra guns you can pick up along the way. Let's face it, you only need so many weapons on your horse but to be able to pick up the guns after a shoot out and then take them to the fence to sell would be very cool. More treasure maps. I love hunting treasure. Figuring out where everything is etc. Calm the wolves down option rather than have to shoot them all the time … it could take a fair bit of patience and time but wish Arthur could get out of having to kill so many wolves. More gang challenges .. I really enjoy the challenges and activities with other gang members.. etc. Would love more of these. It gets lonely searching for treasure and legendary animals with no one for company. Can see Arthur taking on some of the hunts w/ Charles or even Lenny. Maybe teach Lenny how to hunt etc. More encounters with Charlotte. Arthur deserves a little romance. Not too sappy but .. I think he should be able to go see her more often. And more time w/ Hamish. Hamish was a hoot and a half. We lost him too soon. A few more friendlier camp sites - all the camp sites are so hostile. It would be fun to just ride up and join in some random conversations, stories etc. Get some clues for mysteries or treasure hunts etc. Add on towns and places … maybe secret ways to get through the mountains … and finally .. can we just beat the sh*t out of Micah at camp? I seriously dislike this man and want Arthur to be able to kick his ass in camp. He is such a bastard. The only character in the story that I want Arthur to actually shoot in the face (well, actually … there is that creepy rapist guy and the kid who is mean to his dog at Emerald Ranch, and the guy who punches his horse after losing the race, and the KKK racist idiots, but you get to shoot them down so there is some satisfaction in that ) and then one question for any one still reading this boring post .. how do you trigger the bust out of jail scenes for Arthur? I have never been arrested or even approached by bounty hunters unless running away from one of the scenes where you have robbed a train or bank etc. or a big shoot out scene. Does your honour have something to do with it because I normally have pretty high honour. I have been waiting for bounty hunters to catch up with him and take him to jail but doesn't happen. I have had Javier ride up random and you have to go rescue Bill but .. that's it. Any suggestions? Thanks for listening .. Cheers, UKRogueOne.

On PC, there is and option in the upper right of the Posse Directory that says "Start a Posse". Here's the link to do that: https://www.rdr2.org/forums/clubs/?do=create

More information on how to block someone follows also... Well, not wanting to leave anything to chance, I called US Sony myself 1-800-345-7669. I hadn't done it before because I figured I'd have a long wait time. Surprisingly, I did not. The person I spoke with said that once I block a person, we would no longer be able to see or communicate with one another. I then specifically mentioned Red Dead 2 Online lobbies and told her of the problems that some of us are having with griefers. I then specifically asked if I block someone, would that prevent us from being in the same game lobby. She said yes without missing a beat. That's the best thing I've heard about this situation so far, even counting information from Rockstar. About blocking--well, I have done it this way. Because I don't want to stop my gameplay once I get going, I take down the name of whomever has griefed me (you know, it appears in that picture after someone murders you). At the end of last night's session, where I only played quick roam missions, I had four names of players that had popped me when I was standing there, spawning in and out as I went from mission to mission. I had also gathered names of griefers from a few friends that I trust, so I was looking at a list of about 30 people. I had to be at a computer for a time this morning, so logged into my Playstation account on one of the browser windows. Across the top menu on-screen is the word Friends. Select that and it takes you to a search bar. I typed the person's name in. His info popped up. I selected it. There are a few options there but there is also a little box under their name with three periods/dots in it. I selected the box. The option to Block the person is there. Of course, with all of the people playing the game, this is only a small step. But, for me, it's more than what Rockstar is doing at this point and I feel a little better knowing it shouldn't be the same griefer killing me in multiple sessions. I'm still hoping for separate PvE and PvEvP servers.

Awesome, amazing...one of the games i especially bought my PS4 for. Nothing else to say, buy it and play it!

In a persistent posse you will probably have to remove some offline posse members in order to add the other players because posse members retain their position in persistent posses even when they are offline. I don’t know of any other work around at the moment.

Since taxpayers are the prime supporters of financial help for people, they should have more of a say when it comes to where their money goes. The problem is, like with everything else, a few bad eggs will spoil the bunch. Everything has to be set up to keep the small numbers from taking advantage of the larger numbers in all scenarios but there are still loopholes and it is being abused. The immigration condition in the US is one example of this. As far as I am aware of, everyone is not facing racism. Even whites. It has become more of a problem now then it was just 10 years ago. Everyone is turning everything into skin color, moral views, and lifestyle preferences. It is all just too damn tiresome. I am sick of seeing people who speak out against the wrongdoings of others and yet do the "wrong" themselves.

I think there should be strict limitations for immigrants to receive government aid. Right now it's handed to them without any requirements, maybe a waiting period or something. Here they finally started doing mandatory drug tests to qualify for aid, so that at least eliminated the junkies trying to play the system. I applied for gov. aid when i lost a job about 15 years ago or so, (granted this was a long time ago, but it hasn't changed much from what i've been told recently, at least here anyway) I went in with a buddy of mine that also lost his job from the same company. Both of us a single parent with 1 kid, both of us made the exact same wage at that job, and i know from previous discussions he paid $80 less in rent than i did. I got denied any and all aid as i made $0.18 over the limit. After our meetings (we rode there together) i was bitching about being 18 cents over the limit. He looked at me and said wow, they checked your wages? they didn't even look at mine. And he got all the government aid, food stamps, living assistance, child care assistance, etc. The only difference between him and I is I am white, and he is from Ecuador. they went over my paperwork with a fine tooth comb, but didn't hardly look at his. I should have checked a different box on the form than white lol.

Fair enough, maybe so. If it's a big deal, I'm sure a moderator can move the thread to the right place.

Point taken. No need to make it anything more than it needs to be

If they get the medical system sorted out and make coming into the country easier and quicker, I don't think we would have nearly as many illegal immigrants. I am fine with immigrants, we have plenty of room and jobs despite what people think but there has to be a common understanding to abide by the laws of this country and to not take advantage of our government aid systems.

People are only against the wall because Trump is pushing for it. Obama, Bush, Hillary and Bill, they were all for putting a wall up but couldn't figure out the funding. The only reason the tide has shifted on it is that Trump wants it. I am not a fan of the man but people are acting really fn childish on both sides over it. I am talking specifically about the politicians not the identifying citizens in the general public. I expect MORE of the government. Not them acting like children.

Our border security works great. We just kick the sh*t out of any English that are dumb enough to come over.
