Yes, but do you have a dedicated Beer Fridge? Oh, I bet there's plenty to do. This isn't Marvel Heroes Omega As I am so fond of telling my kids, "The United States of America does not negotiate with terrorists". Begging your pardon, m'Lord, I doubt you saw down the length of your nose upon us humble peasants from atop your high horse: I suggest Fortnite. I somehow suspect that is not a tender, gentle love.

Yea man, you're a Rockstar! We suck! You don't need this pos game. Please, find another game to master and tell us about.

Why? Can't handle people your own rank? Feel free to add me on xbox. Myself and friends love griefers.

" Proximity-Based Player Blips: Player location blips will soon appear only over short distances, reducing the range at which you are visible to others, decreasing the likelihood of being targeted by another player across large areas. Down the line, we’re also looking to introduce the ability to identify players who grief and kill indiscriminately with a progressively darkening blip that becomes more visible and at a longer range, so everyone in a session can identify potentially dangerous opponents at a glance and from a safe distance. " ^^^ **** YEAH ^^^

I think they are trying to give the PVPrs something else to do beside kill people in free roam. A little grief relief until they add the other stuff.

I kinda hope R* only adds passive mode, private lobbies and nothing else until this dude finds himself a new game. Is it just me? lol

Not real excited about this. It is a step up from the silence we have had, but only a baby step. I have a saying that sums it up. New does not mean it is better.

Dude you are the best thing on these forums ! Hope to ride with you someday !! @BropolloCreed79 you are king !!

Depends what you're into...

Named mine Numbnuts because Dumbass wasn't allowed

I guess the easiest way around it is to not use profanity... Stupid, I know. But it works.

You had me at Macallan. There is a steak house near me that specializes in Scotch. They have Mcallan dating back to the 1930's. My stash is in a globe, 12,15, 21 and 30 in there. Sadly my dead eye hasn't improved while drinking it.

Same here...... I actually owned the game on PS3 and bought it again on PS4. I still log on from time to time to run businesses and check out new content. Whether you like it, hate it or are indifferent to it, the fact is that GTAVO has been wildly successful and continues to be. I recall all the detractors saying that game would die too. R* hasn't abandoned PvE in RDO simply because PvP content was their first priority for the year. They have already announced new challenges coming soon as well as changes to Free Roam (to address the griefer issues) and "lots of new content that we will be releasing this year" (which includes PvE).

Hadn't thought of it that way but that makes sense. Of course, those looking for easy kills will still prefer Free Roam, but more PvP activities may lure them away from the rest of us.

Glad to know as the game is waiting on life support for you and some others. The best plan you got, is to ruin the fun for others. That should kill it if Rockstar doesn't react fact enough.

Only a battle royal added as content...sad really, they should at least address all the issues players are having before adding more PvP content. You need pve content/freeroam content to keep this game alive. Other great games are coming soon and if they don't fix this, people will migrate to other titles.

I'm a little leary about the proximity blips. I wasn't too sure about them before but definitely not sure about them now. I like that griefers will have a disadvantage by having their blip gradually change color and range but now players won't know if a town is infested with other players until they get there. Curious as to the range. As it is now, I simply avoid populated areas when solo and trying to play missions like wagon retrievals, mail deliveries and similar where you are exposed to potential threat from other players. Griefers and kill squads could also have the advantage of being cloaked until they find a target rich environment as they rove around the map. I guess I'll have to see how this works before I pass judgement though. This may end up killing the advantage the phone app has been giving me to avoid them.

I always look at mini map before thinking about this mission. If I see a posse close, I will have some members head that direction so that we have a better chance at catching the runner. I was chosen last night for one and had a good fight with the attackers. I see no problem with them . I like being on both sides of the mission. And to be honest the NPC ones are so boring and predictable. You know exactly where they are going to be. Some people get all butt hurt over this mission but I don't see why unless you troll the player after you kill them. Kill your target and move on. I killed someone this weekend who was marked but held his perfect cougar carcass until he revived because he killed his horse by mistake trying to run. He thanked me and moved on. Not all pvp is toxic like people make it out to be. And if you are using your Companion App, it is sooooo easy to avoid the player/s chasing you to run out the timer and get the XP. I just wish the payout was more on both sides.

Well that's something you and R* have in common then..lol. It actually happened a day ago, prior to the update. Sadly, I haven't played since the update.

Not a great deal for me either, shame, Still doesn't really help the players (like me) who are not very good at the game. Not really sure what would help me online. Just the ability to hunt, fish and roam without some jerk killing me or my horse for no reason. oh well back to my other games for now.

It's out already: https://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/60804/Red-Dead-Online-Beta-Update Sounds great! Can't believe they did something against griefers. Never happened in GTA. Edit: looks like you've posted the link, while i was typing.

That's a good change. gives you a bit of a challenge riding around the world.

Only reason to lower your flag is to invite PvP players that chance at PvP. AKA, probably why you won't ever get attacked in camp. Seriously though, when players say they got attacked in their camp. 1st thing I think of is whether or not their flag was raised or not.

We need some more content soon for sure, if we at least had some news from R* I might muster up the energy to rank up faster. There is just no incentive to do so as it stands.

i know this game has a lot of weird stuff going on... but to me its gotten weirder. FYI i play on XBOX, ive cycled my xbox and my modem. for 3 days now, gang hideouts are bugged, 4/5 of them wont "clear" when finished or have the leader give up.... although today i had better luck free roam missions starting are even worse, especially if a boat/cart/wagon is involved because of my biggest wtf.... for the past 3 days no carts, wagons, or stagecoaches have spawned in my games..... not one. not even the cart that spawns at the Gang hideout at the fort on the Kamassa river........ im assuming its everyone but know that this game phases all the time and i havnt read anything about this happening to anyone else... so... is this happening to anyone else? some other oddities is server's randomly not spawning ANY animals or NPCs: literally no birds in the sky, no animals, St. Denis will have no npcs outside of vendors, but i attribute this to a mostly empty server just doesn't feel like spawning assets im most curious about the Wagon thing though.

Once you've found the seven or so futuristic rock carvings you get access to his house and also a resolution to some those questions that might have niggled you about this fella, Francis Sinclair.

Said Jerry Garcia, "The lesser of two evils is still evil."

Go to your side menu (left on the D-pad on either console) and go to stable then owned horse then pay the $4.00 healing fee).

also if i see this as the mission, i zoom out my map and see how close people are...... so if Flaco Hernandez is offering me player assassination, and the next closest player is in strawberry then hell to the naw

Some of the filtering system seems silly but just get more creative. Crack open a thesaurus and get some different words with similar meanings.

Red Dead Redemption features a colorful cast of characters who aren't just there to progress the story, but also to help Arthur in his quest to aid the gang that has become his true family over the years. Among the members of the gang that will provide help to the outlaw is the cook Simon Pearson, who not only provides food for the whole gang but also a crafting service which allows players to obtain a variety of items in exchange for animal parts. In order for Pearson to be able to craft all of the possible items, you need to purchase a specific camp upgrade, the Leather Working Tools. This upgrade costs only $180, so we suggest you purchase as soon as possible since some of the items that the cook can craft for you are extremely useful. In this guide, we will not only list all the items that Pearson can craft but also where to find all the required materials. Satchel Upgrades The most useful items that Pearson can craft are the satchel upgrades. These seven upgrades expand your inventory space for select item types, so getting them will allow you to carry more items which, in turn, can be sold for more money. Crafting these upgrades, however, is going to be difficult if you're not good at hunting since you need perfect pelts, hides, and skins to do so. Once you have one in your possession, donate it to Pearson by selecting the appropriate option when interacting with his wagon. Red Dead Redemption 2_20181026175305Valuables Satchel Increases carrying capacity for valuable items that can be sold for money 1 Perfect beaver skin, 1 perfect rabbit skin Materials Satchel Increases carrying capacity for inedible materials used for crafting 1 Perfect boar hide, 1 perfect iguana skin Provisions Satchel Increases carrying capacity for all provisions 1 Perfect bison hide, 1 perfect raccoon skin Kit Satchel Increases carrying capacity for hit equipment 1 Perfect elk skin, 1 perfect panther skin Ingredients Satchel Increases carrying capacity for edible ingredients used for cooking and tonic crafting 1 Perfect badger skin, 1 perfect squirrel carcass Tonics Satchel Increases carrying capacity for all tonics 1 Perfect buck hide, 1 perfect elk skin Legend of the East Satchel Greatly increases carrying capacity for all item types 1 Perfect wolf skin, 1 perfect cougar skin Cosmetic Camp Upgrades Alongside satchel upgrades, Pearson can also craft a variety of cosmetic camp upgrades. These don't unlock any new features, so craft them only if you wish to make the Van der Linde camp look different than before. Alligator Skull Perfect Alligator Skin Big Horn Ram Skull Perfect Ram Carcass Cougar Pelt Covered Chest 2 Perfect Cougar Pelts Boar Skin Table Cover Perfect Boar Pelt Ox Hide Rug 2 Perfect Ox Hides Boar Skin Rug 4 Perfect Boar Pelts Pronghorn Leather Table Tops 2 Perfect Pronghorn Hides Pronghorn Skull Perfect Pronghorn Carcass Moose Antlers Moose Antler Wolf Skull Perfect Wolf Carcass Snake Skin Banjo Head 2 Perfect Snake Skins Campfire Seat Cover Perfect Beaver Pelt, Perfect Muskrat Pelt, Perfect Fox Pelt Campfire Log Seat Cover Two Perfect Wolf Pelts Lean-to Cow Hide Ground Cover Perfect Cow Hide Scout Fire Ground Cover Two Perfect Goat Hides Elk Antlers Elk Antler Hanging Bones Buck Antlers Where To Find All Needed Materials Finding all the materials needed to craft all of these upgrades is a daunting task, as you need to be doing a lot of hunting, and you need to be good at it as well since you need perfect pelts, hides, skins, and carcasses. In order to get a perfect hide, pelt, skin, and carcass, you need to perform a perfect kill on animals that have a three-star rating, as they are the only ones that can drop perfect materials. To perform a special kill, you must kill the animal with the correct weapon and without damaging its body too much. As a general rule, small animals require the Varmint Rifle for perfect kills, medium-sized animals like deer the bow and arrow, and big animals rifles. You can check out our guide here for more information. To make gathering the materials required to craft all of Pearson's items, we will list the exact quantity needed and where to find the animal. Always remember that it has to be a three-star animal to get perfect materials, so make sure to analyze the animal beforehand while hunting to avoid wasting time. Perfect Bison Hide You will need a single perfect bison hide to craft all of Pearson's items. To get a perfect kill, you can use the Poison Arrow, with a single arrow aimed at the head, or get headshots with any rifle or sniper rifle. These animals can be found to the west of Blackwater, and in the Heartlands Overflow to the southwest of Annesburg. Perfect Boar Pelt You will need six perfect boar pelts to craft all of Pearson's items. Boars are found all over the Lemoyne region, near forested areas.

Perfect Rabbit Pelt You will need one perfect rabbit pelt to craft all of Pearson's items. Rabbits are extremely common, and they can be found in most areas near Valentine, Strawberry, Rhodes and Saint Denis. The only way to perform a perfect kill on rabbits is by using the Varmint Rifle armed with 0.22 shells. Perfect Raccoon Pelt You will need one perfect raccoon pelt to craft all of Pearson's items. This animal is common in the Lemoyne, New Hanover and West Elizabeth regions. The only way to get a perfect kill on raccoons is by using the Varmin Rifle loaded with 0.22 shells Perfect Beaver Pelt You will need two perfect beaver pelts to craft all of Pearson's items. These animals are a bit tricky to find, as they are small and only spawn in a few very small areas, The best area to find them is near the E and R in New Hanover on the map.

Perfect Elk Pelt + Elk Antler You will need two perfect elk pelts and one elk antler to craft all of Pearson's items.

I made this mistake the first time but not the second time. Damn bounties kind of ruin the entire point of doing this. lol

No one knows any anything else is pure speculation right now. Knowing R*'s usual 11th hour news about such things, it could come tomorrow, next week, next month or..... The only thing we know for sure right now is that anti-griefing measures are in the works. Personally, I can't see them leaving RDO untouched for too long. We are however into the first solid week after the holidays so I suspect some news will be coming our way soon. If you really want the latest news as it hits then follow RockstarINTEL, Rockstar Games and similar on Twitter. That's where I go everyday to see if there are any updates.

Rdr2, f13 style?

I encounter it periodically online in my travels. Haven't figured out the spawn pattern yet though.

Im a pvp player.. and I don't care if people want private lobbies. I support private lobbies and pve lobbies. But I also don't go around killing players for no reason. So this is probably why I don't care. I don't need to cheep shot players.

Same excuse every time from most of them: "PVE servers will ruin the game." I'd like to amend that vague statement to: "PVE servers will ruin the game for me because I prefer to shoot people who aren't prepared or have zero interest in shooting back." That about sums it up. PVE lobbies won't ruin this game anymore than having a story mode did. It's just a different section for a different way to play the game. The only thing that will change for the PVP community is that they will now be forced to play in lobbies with people who are looking to shoot them first.

I hate the online part of this game as it is at the moment, I have decided to not continue to play the online as it is. I would play if I could PVE with a group of friends and play missions together without other people shooting me all the time. This game is not mechanically made to be PvP, it is made purely to be PVE and that is why online feels so broken.

I don't think PVP players see the point of PVE games as there isn't as much of a struggle. I have a love-hate relationship with PVP myself and I prefer to play in PVE games where it is you and other players vs everything else that is not player controlled.

It has to be one shot one kill and you cant damage the body afterwards so if your say chasing ater the thing on your horse and then you jump off dead eye and shoot it midair means nothing if yer horse stomps on it afterwards Or maybe you marked the head but the thing bowed before arrow hit it and ou got the neck or something. Also for small game like badgers etc I think you need to use varmint rifle or some other special stuff, it always says in the species description in menu thingy. I cant think of anything else hope it helps

They should remove the player assassinations. It pays nothing and just bothers players for no reason.,

You don't have to accept the mission - you know it's a player assassination before you say yes. Unless I've got a load of skins/carcasses on my horse (in which case I run) I go with Euphoric's approach, hole up and try to fight the assassin off. What's not fun about that? It's nothing like the random guy that shotgun's you in the back of the head in Valentine High Street, it's part of the structured play of the game, and you're given fair warning if you're the target. Just what I think.

Not going to help, unless they are in a posse. I chased them down only for them to jump server.

It’s really a personal opinion, but if someone takes a potshot at you, the first kill is reasonable. If they continue to attack you, then defending yourself is expected. Now if you kill them, they respawn, and try to leave you alone and you chase them down and continuously kill them until they leave the server - then yeah I would call that griefing.

The hooded stirrups are boss!

I'm just learning today that stirrups have perks. I never knew that and thought they were a waste of money!

They're just loot, sell them to the fence if i recall correctly.

I named my original character `Jose Cuervo` so I named my horse Tequila.

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