IMO I just don't get R* launch and handling of this game … Things I pretty much have opinion or facts on…. Shows only 2.5% of players reach level 50 in trophy section of PS4 GTO still outsells this game. Every quarterly report lists RDO as 4th behind GTO, WWE and NBA 2k in microtransactions (although they no longer break out exact numbers) I see 16 to 32 players on my lobby list yet you can easily ride about half the map in an hour or so and rarely run into other players anymore. Maybe a few Solo's and a posse or 2, generally infighting or shooting up a town, but towns are generally barren. Updates seem to be down to generally 3 times a year but it's like they throw crappy code on top of crappy code and never stop to fix it. Questions I would ask R*... What is there to buy, newbie or not….they have a right to make money but other than that $5 intial purchase I don't see any revenue stream going forward…. Even if I restarted today I could easily play this game and never spend a real world $. Are they trying to attract new players because I really don't think it's working. I've seen articles that they're thinking of expanding current roles, introduce new roles and whole bunch of other speculation but to me... Just seems like they are shooting themselves in the foot with the core player and losing players quicker than adding them. Make me happy… Bring back the damn animals but animals aside... Add something... you got Mexico from RDR1, a prison island that you can't get to, boats out in the rivers. More legendary bounties or stuff like the moonshine missions. Got to do something as it's like you log in and nothing ever changes. Like Pavlov and his drooling dog I'm starting to become conditioned to nothing will ever get better. I don't know just my venting opinion but the game has so much potential being squandered away. Map seems to be getting small and dailies aren't a challenge but a chore.

Bro - using the term veteran for a lvl 60 is what irked me the most ...

Thanks bro.... I was venting for sure; I’ve defended this game so much for so long that when I saw the way they worded the announcement today it got under my skin. Thanks again for your encouraging words. also - I’ve yet to get most of the dynamic encounters ever, including - poison poppy, rival collector, grave robber, animals attacking eggs.....

At camp, you add them to the horse from the trunk near your bed. With a saddlebag upgrade, you can hold up the 5 outfits.

That would be cool.

I remember having some problems finding moose as well. I remember spotting some across O'Creagh's run - I watched a herd of them literally walk into the mountainside and disappear.

They have been turning their backs on their actual player base for 'new players' for a while now. Even more so the last 3 months. Funny enough, at this point. Players who started playing 3 months ago are probable are probably starting to feel like us. "What? rank 10?" Rank 10 takes a few hours of play time. You're basically rank 5-6 by the time you finish the RD O start/tutorial.

I don't mind it either with the exception of wolves where the animation briefly locks you out of being able to look around you. I also find it adds a level of tension as you are vulnerable for that period while you are harvesting the animals. Personally, I believe it's these animations and interactions in the gameworld that help make RDR2 immersive. If anything, I would love to see things like reloading slowed down to something resembling a halfway believable pace. If we were to skip animations like these, the game simply wouldn't feel the same IMO. ......the work to gather these things would also feel effortless so what's the point IMO? .....and where do we stop with nixing mechanics like this?

Personally speaking, all of the rewards seem to be retroactive so there's still stuff there for me to take advantage of. Unfortunately, it seems I maxed out my ammo the last time I played so unless I blow through a bunch of it, I won't be able to really take advantage of that sale.

Glad to know it wasn’t just me ..

Veteran players lvl 60.............max. Ammo discount? I have enough money and gold bars to buy all weapon stores in the world fully stocked, all saloons , grocery stores and all clothes in game ten times over...... @Mr. Bohannon i havent been blessed with those events as well and yeah i played a LOT. Seriously R*? BS !!!!!!

A certain Russian YouTuber (not promoting) made a video on why they don't care, and I get it. I'm day 1 as well. It is frustrating but don't loose focus on the game. If they could just actually fix the animals, for me stranger missions... I haven't been able to play them in awhile, they all say no jobs currently....just fix basic gameplay. I'm sure you have enough money and gold that you could get anything. The benefits are great for new players. New content is coming I'm no saint I still complain... we just gotta alter our view slightly

As always thanks @Kean_1 this has to be the biggest slap in the face yet - to state they are doing something for high level players and still it’s all things we already have.... I’ve been one to give the benefit of the doubt, kept playing with all of the massive bug issues, no animals, etc .... this just could be the final straw for me, I’ve never felt so insulted. they really don’t give a drop of turtle piss about those of us who have been here since day 1 of the beta.

They don't care about high lvl players from Beta, that's for sure now😡

This is amazing. Good Job R*. Can't wait to reach rank 10...
