After considering all things and putting 2 and 2 together I came to the conclusion that I expect that RDR2 will probably be fixed for good on the PS5! They will probably make it one of the selling points for the new console. Remastered or at least graphicly improved and/or enhanced with a new form of anti aliasing and off course 4k and true hdr! So I won't expect a final solution myself anymore, but more of a alternative in the form of a PS5. Profit is a bitch when you know it is all and only about making money! Also (and this has nothing to do with the hdr/blur problems), after watching a certain YouTube video, I came to the conclusion that the RDR2 game design isn't that revolutionary as many think. Watch this video and make up your own mind: Rockstars game design is outdated! Also I noticed that the self proclaimed "employee of Rockstar" has been quiet, so that means that he doesn't know anymore what to say because of the lack of any true solution or he stopped trolling! 👎

Do you really think they would do something like that intentionally and not expect lawsuits? Of course not. If it were intentional, legal recourse would be swift, and they're smart enough to know that. As was suggested before, try contacting customer support and see if they can help you before making angry decisions, like these jerky-jerkfaces are just trying to scam you out of your cashola.

You definitely need to be using it, it does feel underwhelming compared to the single player's version of it, but there types of ability cards that augment your dead eye. For example one ability allows your friends to deal more damage while your dead eye is active, some allow you to absorb a headshot without dying - so, it is very useful but not in quite the same way as single player. I found that the 'paint it black' ability in online is good for long range fire fights where your lock doesnt reach your target, if you pop dead eye you can 'tag' your enemy and hit them from greater ranges - id say if you're not using dead eye, your missing out

My homemade pizza... This one's a meat lovers. Pepperoni, sausage, ham, and bacon.

"A" coat? As in only one? Bro, I command thee to get to thy nearest haberdashery so that thou may be as resplendent enough to command the respect of strangers in an online game. GET THEE TO A HABERDASHERY!!!

So here we are with some REAL SUPER PIZZAs from the north of Italy. This is the best place I know in the North, about 1h where I live, and once a month (since it's not near) I go and have a real pizza. It's too good. It's so special. Look and love. If you want the address just ask. It's in Milano. Ciao !

-Load up in a zone you don't plan on farming in, then travel to the area of your choice -Always play defensively = check map, shoot first then relocate, etc - (Do not assume people are friendly at first, assume the opposite) BIGGEST TIP = Get the ability 'never without one' - it requires you to be level 48 (I know) but this gives you a free headshot to retaliate before it is too late, if you are on your horse you can quickly equip another hat -If you are a fisher, use the companion app to bring up your map to see if you are being rushed. -BUY horse insurance. -Avoid major hotspots when farming ( blackwater, saint denis, valentine = depending on the population of server) -Ride to a farther butcher if needed, just hunt along the way. I personally have never been griefed, but these little tips have helped me out. I also shoot everyone that rides directly at me first - but I don't pursue them afterwards. Think about it, even the npcs get angry if you ride to close.... Good luck out there - hope any of these small tips helped.

Definitely.

nah, could always use a banjo player

I watched a video yesterday where it discussed this very topic. Guy said it was left in unintentionally from an earlier build, and that Take2 were so adamant that they wanted gold in right away, that R* totally forgot to take it out.

I highly doubt they would do something like that intentionally. This isn't Gun Media we're talking about. I'm not denying that it's happening, I just seriously doubt it's intentional. Send in a report (like everyone else should also be doing) and they'll figure it out. You don't need to threaten a lawsuit lol

Its not a bug. Youtube has many clips of the same thing. It clearly shows buy for gold, then you are prompted to go to psn store to spend REAL money then when it brings you back the option to buy for gold is gone. Hourly there is more youtube clips of the same thing from different ppl. I think the scumbag business side of Red dead should expect a large law suit coming and all that money they made to disappear along with the player base.

One of those days... Thanks lol

"Yeah, I'm an evil bastard, but let me just murder a shitload of animals, then tear them apart, and I'll be right as rain."

It's funny because I go by the name Vaderspupil because I'm a big Darth Vader fan, yet I prefer playing as the good guy in any roleplaying type games. For the most part, I treat others in game how I treat them in real life. I treat them how I want to be treated in return. However, if you're an asshole to me, I'll be an asshole right back.

I use it online, but feel it's less effective as it is offline. I usually using it to get multiple headshots in a group, yet the others just seem to walk away without a scratch.

That's an interesting question, partly because if my gameplay reflects my RL personality then I should probably start worrying about my sanity. My gameplay expresses my imagination (so it is me) in ways I can't, or shouldn't express it in the street. That is the point of turning on the PS4, tuning in to RDR2 and dropping out of RL, temporarily... However, I can only express my imagination up to a point, it's still a limited world. Everyone is aware of the limited emote functions, and we would all love more, cos just waving, or randomly spitting, is kinda limited. Btw I'm not complaining here, I'm just pointing out that our imaginations are boundless, CGI isn't, yet. So in this limited world how do we interact with each other? We can race each other, we can kill each other... I'm thinking... I'm sure others will see it differently and add other ways we can interact, but my point is just that there are limited ways to interact in the Online game except attack each other. I don't, voluntarily, but I do enjoy a fight (else I wouldn't be here) and can see why others do. I do think it's happening less already though, it's still a New World remember, though it's becoming less of a Wild West as we play, entirely in keeping with the game...

Change it to the Van Horn outpost, which is a crappy place to begin with, and you have a deal. St. Denis may be dirty, but I dig the architecture.

I am sorry to laughing or even smiling at such a serious thing, but I could not help myself. I guess it is true that humans way of handling tragedy is to do it with comedy. Anyway, I hope it will get better and that those affiliated with the irl violence will get caught and sentenced to life sentences.

The ability to build a wall around St Denis, and then set fire to the city and watch all the trolls burn a wonderful, inescapable, conflagration? Just me? Ok, then ...

I'd do that for free. If you think about it, that's next-level griefing, and smart, too. No gunshot means no noise, and he or she isn't wasting an arrow. They loot your saddlebags and abscond with XP AND loot. It's actually quite brilliant if you think about it. A candy-ass move, but no less impressive for the intent. Hell, he or she probably gets away with it more often than not, especially against players unaware of what's happening. Same. I played through the prologue and got right up to the free roam portion, and haven't touched it since. Of course, I'm still only on Chapter 3 of the story mode (50% completion) so I really haven't prioritized the online portion as of yet. But the horror stories are enough to give anyone not overly enthused with the PvP lifestyle pause. You know what we need? Traps and decoys. You set up a decoy, like a scarecrow that looks like it's fishing, then lie in wait for some griefer to approach while you hide off to the side waiting to ambush him. If they make the decoys life like enough to pass muster until someone is up close, then a whole new world is opened up for online play. Traps would be fantastic too. You tie off your horse to a hitching post and then place a bear trap near him that gets triggered if a tool tries to stab the horse or rob the saddlebags. OOOOOOH, or dynamite (I'd use the old nag for that, boobytrap a horse that blows up). Giving players the tools to bait griefers is a much better solution than relying on a broken parley system or any other solution short of private lobbies. I'd rather be proactive than reactive, relying on horse insurance and being a victim before I can fight back is for yellow-bellies and cowards; give me the ability to be cunning and ruthless without being the same kind of jabroni that I would have to act like under the current model.

It all depends on what you consider to be the wisest way to level. Personally I am not highly skilled PVP wise so I haven't done a lot of the series and that will nett you the most XP if you are "decent" at it. If you get a good posse going with several frequent members that do not fool around all the time, but go from stranger mission to stranger mission and in between some hideouts you encounter, that wil be a nice way to level up. Just try to play efficiently xp wise as stated before. A kill is not a kill : - headshots give extra 5 xp - from horse extra 5 xp - special ammo extra 5 xp running up on enemies and tackling them then execute them gives another 10 xp. It can mount up to 25xp per kill and even more. Of course there are many other xp boosters around. Also remember to kill animals when travelling from point to point just to get another xp boost in the dead time... Personally I think hunting is the best way to a balanced level up. Specifically as the ability cards are very important assets and these cannot be acquired through gold, only ingame dollars and they cost 50, 350 and 500 USD per upgrade at I think over 20 cards. I have spent all my earned USD into the ability cards and used a fair amount of gold into getting a fast horse and the entire What I have done mainly basically from start of the beta is hunt at the swamp area above Saint Denis. Best weapons are the Varmint and a rifle of your choice (I got the rolling block with scope). When you start RDO up spawn in New Austin, go to a fast travel post and pay to travel to Saint Denis, ensuring that the area is as good as empty regarding online players. Depending on your personal needs you can adapt your hunting. I basically do a 24hour in game cycle of hunting where during the morning to noon session I shoot and skin birds netting 10 xp per kill (also the shooting 1k birds and 1k animals challenges are done). Alongside every alligator gets one in the head giving you 15 xp. pristine small ones skin and put on horse 10 usd) and lasso a 2nd and drag to butcher for another 10. During night shoot every toad and frog and look for boars, the occosianal buck and muskut rats. Perfect rat carcasses nett you 4usd and the pelt almost 2 bucks. In most runs I encounter 5 to 6 of those and regarding birds the spoonbill / pelican / crane and heron feathers stack up to 10 at about 1.5 usd each. in this cycle you can gather a few herbs as well and prep big game meat with thyme/oregano and mint in order to have golden cores and be ready for other gameplay later on. You can also sell most herbs to the doctor (herbpicking and sell herbs challenges as well in between). Stock up ammo/ clean guns get supplies and repeat. If bored you can do the earlier mentioned ladder in Saint Denis to gather xp (no money there though). The above is not the fastest way to level, but In a 24hour cycle in game (1hour or less of playtime) you can get half a level done and more importantly get around 100 to 150 USD. I have put all that into the ability cards and have all of them maxxed out in xp lvl 1 and 2 respectively 10k and 15k xp per card and around 7 of them levelled to the max. Now at a point that the playing field in terms of abilities in pvp either balance me out with better players and give me a small edge on lower levelled players. Also getting griefed is not happening that much anymore. TLDR : Hunting in Saint Denis (combine with ladder if USD not an issue), shoot everything and collect, and invest in abiltiy cards and level and upgrade asap to max xp collecting. At a certain point if comfortable go pvp.

Last night on YouTube I saw a comment from a guy sick of being attacked by griefers ..... the first reply was "Awwww, who hurt you? It's just a game!!!!!' Now that is a griefer comment. There is it appears a certain level of deeply confused machismo attached to griefing, it is little boys wishing to be men . This why all the cat calling straight from the play ground... they think they are genuinely tough. They think this is how men act.... grown men do not act like that boys It reminds me something an acquaintance told me, he was an instructor for the new entry British Army Para Troopers "They haven't been let out for 3 months , they have just got their wings and are let out...... So they go down the local town and the local boys beat the crap out of them... These young para's mistake being fit the for the first time in their life, with being tough" Just because you have a digital gun in your hand does not mean you should inflict your presence onto someone else ... other people are NOT there to entertain you, infant. So be good little boys and keep to yourself or only attack people like yourself... you know, idiots

All players with generic looking characters and xX UDeDBoiZ Xx style names need their balls whipped. Just my personal opinion, of course.

Hey guys, So far ive really enjoyed being a part of this community forum. To show my appreciation (and cuz its fun). I'm willing to make some free graphics for those interested (no personal info needed). Ill show a sample below of what you can somewhat expect. All I NEED YOU TO DO IS POST A REPLY HERE INCLUDING: *Either your character's name or PSN/XBL name....or BOTH *Picture of your in-game character(s) *Your Posse Name (optional) *Any bounty info you'd like added (LIMILITED 100 LETTERS or LESS and can vary depending on actual text) . message me if you go over and ill see what I can do Sorry, not willing to change the value of the bounty ($5000) as I'm using a template Thanks again just let me know if you have any special requests ahead of time.

lol according to someone on youtube there is a method to get into a session all by yourself, i think its a bug from some guy that offers missions up in the grizzleys. some reason it puts you alone when you complete it. i also tried the check nat type method most ppl were using in GTA to get into solo lobbys, didnt work

Totally accurate. Maybe it will get better with split servers and less griefing. I spent an hour, maybe a little more, this weekend giving online another shot. Totally wasted an hour + of game time i could have been enjoying story mode. I thought the story line was just as good as RDR, maybe better but that's a tough call. I love them both. More content in RDR2, more stranger missions and interactions with people. Same challenges (meaning sharpshooter, bandit, etc. not same challenges in those challenges). I think some here had the wrong impression when the game came out. It's a prequel to RDR, so yeah it has the same game play and whatnot, you can't go totally different for a prequel.

You don't use your weapon wheel to rob. You target the person/shopkeeper and press the button indicated in the tooltips in the bottom right corner. Not at my console now but i believe you have to target, then aim, at the shopkeepers.

....absolutely not. ....IMO. 1) I don't want to be griefed and then sent far away from my camp. Other choices that sound better to me to mitigate this issue are giving the victim an option where to spawn (back near the site or at their camp). ......or make their horse spawn net to them so they can actually have a chance to get away, etc. 2) Stranger missions are plenty challenging. Yeah, some are uneventful but then again, I've been swarmed by other players too. THe incentive is to complete the mission otherwise you don't get the payout. Why do you want to punish players further? 3) I don't know about you but being mauled by a grizzly is already plenty scary. Plus, don't you lose your pelts when you die? Again, why punish players further? 4) Assassinations are already easy enough to escape IMO but I would get rid of the mechanic all together or make it an "opt in" choice. .....but that's just me. 5) Death already has its drawbacks. IMO, punishing players by sending them back to the same starting point over and over is not "fun" and in fact I would find it downright annoying. ....not only for myself but my posse. Can you imaging losing a player and then having to rendezvous again with your group every time? No thanks. This also can work in favor of kill squads as a victims teammates are sent packing each time they die. Skirmishes between willing posses would also be really short and boring as players are sent back to their camps all over the map. .....etc., etc. No offense but I think it's a bad idea. .....although I like the idea of bounties on griefers. Either way, R* already announced that they will be implementing new anti-griefing measures so I'd like to see how that shakes out.

Delicious!!

If I had run in to you online, I'd have been dead. There is a skill level involved when some of the griefing solutions are mentioned. And I'm not that good a player. I'm so bad a player that along with accidentally punching my horse on occasion, once I tried to wave at a player and mistakenly pulled my pistol and shot at his feet. I immediately turned my back to him to try and show that I'm not hostile. This guy, whoever he was, was such a class act that even though he now had his gun drawn, he didn't shoot me. I finally figured got the wave figured out, but did it with my back to him. And I'm such a PvEer that I actually had the drop on someone coming all the way across a small river toward me but I was giving him the benefit of the doubt. Yeah, he popped me good.

You are probably not the stellar marksman you thought you were. If you are tracking a 3-star deer, you will need to get a perfect headshot in order to preserve the pelt. If you are shooting it from too far away and not using the correct high velocity ammo for long distance shots, the bullet trajectory will result in an inaccurate hit. You can't skin decaying animals, so the poor pelt you are harvesting is a direct result of your poor shooting, not because the animal is decayed. There is nothing more to it.

Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. The Last of Us. And, I know it may be a little early to consider the game one of my greatest, but I absolutely love the story, so Red Dead Redemption 2.

Nice pix ! But one guy is missing the black hat.... kill him ! 🙂

Trouble is, troll so out do load their horse then attack you, and when you kill them you'd have to pay a fortune.

I dunno..... Why do you whine about it you little ******!!!!! Go play the campaign if you can't handle it!!!! It's a PvP game, what did you expect!!!! I do it because it's fun!!!!! .....blah, blah, blah. (Just playing the devil's advocate. I hate griefers too and figured these would be their typical responses. )

de-judder settings smooth out frame rate issues at the expense of pixel artifacts around character while moving. It's a slider though, so it can be adjusted to a value where pixel artifacts become unnoticeable enough. That's what worked for me

Good for you, I had no idea and actually still do not believe that one can increase fps by changing settings on ones TV. But if you feel it works for you, enjoy the game!

I own both a PRO and an XoneX and I prefer to play RDR2 on the PRO but it is just a personal preference. But make no mistakes about it, the XoneX no matter how great it is has been plagued by some issues in regards to the recent updates. So for picture quality go with the XoneX but if fps stability is your priority, go with the PRO 1080p with no ss or hdr. PC will exlipse them all of course and we all will have double or even tripple dipped when all versions have been released. I personally already own the game on the PRO and on the OneX and I will probably buy it on PC and even a possible remake for the next gen of consoles too. Hell, I even have a Nintendo Switch in my home as I just bought one for my kids. So many games and so little time.

The simple solution to fix trolling/griefing is private/invite only lobbies and free aim lobbies. And remove the always on blips. Its not really more complicated then that. I don't want to see R* add all these hurdles and punishments to the game that can be used against players who enjoy defending themselves and fighting back against griefers/trolls.

i will play rdr 2 when it will come out on pc.. there i will set up the game how the **** i want.. and i will not buy it.. they don't deserve any money after ps4 pro scam..

patch 1.05..? still no blur fix.. i belive they wont fix this sh*t.. because they don't think it's an issue.. **** you rockstar!!!!! patch notes: Red Dead Online bug fixes and improvements

No need for this language on here.Just because his opinion isnt yours doesnt make him a moron,if you spoke to me like that to my face i`d drop you.

It looks bad now in all resolutions. The depth of field is much stronger now in singleplayer storymode. It is real unplayable in all resolutions on my 4k TV. This is a badass company. THe TAA is so strong now. The graphic is blurred on fullscreen. The picture is now blurry in motion and in stillness. Now it is totally unplayable. Only the motion blur is a little bit lesser. What can we do, that we become a better experience. I paid 70 Euro for this masterpeace of sh*t. Why no magazine see this big issues and write something about it. Ambient occlusion is lower now and the lighting looks total different to the release version. The quality is bad now. This is the poorest PS4 Pro optimized game that I ever played. This is really bad. I don´t know how it looks in multiplayer, but this is terrible. vaseline on my screen? Edit: With patch 1.05 it is playable and I really enjoy the game now, but technically the pro version is not really a pro version. Motion Blur is alittle bit lesser now.

RDR was a game that surprised me. FPS western is really not something I thought I would like. The game was so much fun for me that I played through it twice. RDR2 is more of the things I really liked in the previous version with an even better story line. There have been some sessions where I will just do main story tasks, but I have had a few nights where I do nothing but hunting, fishing, train robbery and even camp chores or Bath simulator... Its all fun depending on the mood.

Whaaat? Whaaaat does this even mean? Theres nothing overly complicated about this game. And the pace of the game is up to to the player. You can't complain about not making 'progress' if you stop playing the game. IMO this is the best game i've played in years.

The main protagonist, Arthur Morgan starts out as an asshole. That can take some getting used to after the lovable rogue that John Marston was in the first RDR. Also the main plot was John Marston hunting down his old gang to find redemption. In RDR2 the gang is out robbing and killing for money. Because Dutch "HAS A PLAN!" The sand pit is bigger with more content. Better side stories and voice acting than the first game. This game is slow burning as the story unfolds. I loved the first game too. Yeah move on pilgrim. This game is not for you.

Guess I lucked out. I chose to do the missions rather than grind out cash. I did a few before the game booted me at the end of one. Figured it was a sign I should get back to the story.

One would think quitting triggers it...
