Sometimes it is a real crap-shoot. I met some interesting people and got into some that made no sense. Played in one group where I was the only one on a mic and except for when I started missions, they went their separate ways. Met a couple of random groups where people wouldn't shut up long enough for you point out you was about to be ambushed. I like co-op games but it can be a real crisis finding like minded players. Mostly cause different players have different thoughts on what fun is.

Sounds like we need to catch each other online. Go have some fun.

@Bonzai Sorry to hear this happened to you. Unfortunately, that is all we can offer. This is a Beta Testing. Go to Rockstar Forums and let them know. As a player in the community, please to abuse the game and support game breaking issues. You are not the only one being affected this way. Bringing chaos may not affect your game, but it could to someone else. If they then have to waste time fixing the cheats and glitches that you abuse, then they may never spend time fixing the issues that originally started you down that road. A game company will have a limited budget for such things and so they will only focus on is the biggest fire that they think they can fix within their resources. Long term hurts the game. On a side note, please don't take this the wrong way, but at the end of the Beta. There is a chance you will lose everything and have to start all over anyway. It is Beta and nothing is guarenteed til the real game is released.

I only happened once. I was selling stuff at a butcher and someone lassoed me drug me down the street. I respawned and chased down the player. Who ran into a NPC hideout and let them kill him. I waited for him to respawn, figuring he wanted to PvP. Yet when I would go near him he would kill himself or do something to get himself killed. After a few attempts made by me, he left. After that I have only seen it happen to others.

For you my friend, Rockstar can sell you just 10 golden nuggets for only $99.99. Now friend don't shake your head. You do this 100 times, then you my friend can be able to turn in all those golden nuggets for one useless digital artifact that is completely useless outside the game. hehehehe I hate those microtransactions.

I was hearing plenty of players, who while they was selling items or checking their maps. Others would ride up and shoot them and then run off and avoid retribution. Is anyone willing to explain why this is neceassary for PvP? This isn't the 1st game I have seen this, but it always seems to amaze me when I see this kind of thing and hear others complain about it like it's something to online gaming.

Yet later in the game, you can clean your horse and afterwards you will have all those pelts reappear. At one point hunting, we got ambused and I died. When my horse returned it had no pelts. When hunted new ones, went and sold everything, went back to the horse and there was more pelts. Went back and sold those. I think sometimes the game gets overwhelmed and they temporarily disappear and then at some point they reappear. I know someone who reported this to Rockstar.

This weekend, every group I was with. We would ride to go do something and ended up after a few minutes that stopped and we did other things. I noticed after hunting a certain area animal spawns would slow way down. So we traveled and hunted, I'm not high enough to fish yet. We did missions, killed bad people, killed bad animals, robbed bad businesses. Just in case you haven't noticed everything we did we cause we was the good guys and they was bad. The bounties was just fake news.

Beta testing is really for those who find a bug, glitch, or cheat and willing to take time to contact Rockstar to report it. So it can be fixed, most players don't do that, they see access to early release. If they find issues they will use them for the advantage and not say a word to anyone who can fix them. Usually they make a YouTube video making it worse cause then everyone is trying to do it or come on the forums and claim it isn't cheating and that it is ok hoping others will do it as well.

Whatever you do, I repeat Do Not Do With The Buffalo. Instead of killing them, you will just kick them. They don't seem to appreciate that much. Just saying for a friend, who did it twice.

Reptition, more willing you are to keep playing to get a certain item means they succeeded. There just need to be a happy middle ground and that is where the beta comes in. To see if players are willing to grind an activity a million times to get a new gun for horse. Look at GTA Online, many activities paid about 20k and just about anything worth having costs several millions. How many missions does a player re-run till they get what they want. What will they farm for after they get it, what needs to be done after they get it.

I don't work for Rockstar. When and if they choose to ban your account you can accept that as proof. So I don't have to prove it. What I know is if they ban you they won't play the "oh we didn't know, that you realized you was cheating over and over and over." They will ban you and that will be that. If you don't care then it won't matter. I have spoke with those who got banned in GTA Online, cause they used a glitch and didn't know any better, *wink *wink. I would also suggest if you come on forums and claim to cheat, I will point it out for 2 reasons. 1st) you may actual don't realize you're cheating and can be banned for it. No refunds. 2nd) your cheating and bragging about it in the forums can lead to others doing it, which could get them banned. In turn, that decreases the shelf life of the game. Which I do enjoy playing. So if you want to brag about it, it makes it my business cause you are affecting the whole community which I am a part of. Also if you do feel a need a rulebook, feel free to look up the Terms of Service for the game. It is usually pretty general to cover their backsides legally. They may or may not doing anything, but if they do they can ban you no questions asked and with no warning.

Last night a friend and I was out hunting by Fort Mercer. Having some fun and at one point we are chasing a deer and we chase it over a hill. As we go after there was another player and he immediately shoots and kills my friend with one shot. I hit him with a couple of shots to the head and claim our deer. My friend arrives and the other player shows back up and starts shooting at us again. We dispose of him quick cause we was ready for him. We head into Fort Mercer planning on this to blow over so we can get back to hunting. The players start coming in one at a time trying to get us. Each time we kill them and then the next and so forth. Before we know there ends up a dozen or so players outside trying to get to us. At this point I haven't died and my buddy has died only once. Others had died several times, location and cover and help a lot. So why are trying to figure out a plan on how to get out of this, some of them start fighting outside. So we just ride out and leave them to it. We kept playing for about an hour after that and the action was pretty non-stop there the whole time. I don't even know if they ever realized we even left. hahahaha

Show me where in the tutorial, it says to loot, then change games and immediately loot it again and again. Common sense serves better then excuses. In life there are just some things that are right and some are wrong. You shouldn't need a rule book to explain cheating and not cheating.

No it isn't subjective. You are cheating if you think the game was designed for you claim and item, immediately switch to a new game over and over is what they intended. You are cheating and seem perfectly ok with it. I say own it, don't try to lie to us into thinking it is ok to cheat and glitch the game. Maybe you don't go around shooting other players, but there are many that do. Those players generally stalk players they know they can get easy kills for "Fun". Now all this said, I'm not that player that will report you either. I don't tape my games and I often find the game companies unwilling to do anything without me jumping through hoops that they should be jumping through. I just believe if you are going to cheat, accept it. Just don't try to buffalo everyone else.

Why use a glitch to make money? Most players will use a glitch to buy better gear and advantages. Guns and Horses. Many not all players that race for these benefits do it so they have an edge in PvP in a shooter game. Now by the examples I have seen in the past of games like this. Those same players will go looking for players that off doing there own thing for sake of fun. Now if you are just starting out, do you really want to have some tool that is already level 20+ and bored deciding to kill you, wait for you to respond come and kill you again and again and again and again. Eventually, that kind of PvP gets boring and yet Trolls just won't stop. They you find yourself quitting and complaining about the game and telling everyone how bad it is. Not because of the game, but because some players have no restraint. Now if you are lucky a player like myself may intervene, but then your attacker feels the same way you did, cause now I ruined their fun. So the money you gain from cheats and glitches to give you a upperhand? While others are grinding the game to death?

Yes, but they will require proof and it seems to be a wait and see type thing. It also depends on the game as well.

Do we know how long the Beta last or when the actual release be? I met one gentleman that stated that since the release he has been playing non-stop since the release of the online, only because he takes Betas seriously and wants to find all the bugs and glitches so he doesn't have to face them in the release. Yeah, Right! Anyway, at one point he asked if any of us in the group knew whether or not the beta would just shift straight into the game or would there be a reset and everyone starts over. I think that is a good question considering the amount of time players have invested, but I also know that in Betas, that they are just there to let players find the breaks so they can fix before the actual release. So do we know when that is?

It is cheating and is wrong. You cheat to make money, which in turn buys better guns and horses and whatever other gear you want. Why so you can shoot some honest player who is doing it by the book. Don't kid yourself and think someone cheats that they are hurting Rockstar. They aren't, they are only cheating other players.

You restrict theirs or they restrict yours. PvP should be an option between at least players who both consent. It shouldn't be a player trying to do one thing while another decides to shoot them in the back, cause it is only fun for one of them.

It was a bullet. I think he was too far away to use dynamite.

So I really sat down and played online. 1st few missions went fine. About the 3 mission, it gives me a message that others players know what I am doing. I didn't care, I went about my business. One rider, then another, then another, finally a 4th arrived. The 1st 3 fired and died. Then the 4th who had been kind of riding farthest behind started firing after the 3 went down. Missed a lot of shots and then BOOM! I see a explosion around my body. Wagon was fine, the driver was fine, but I died from a explosion. I respawn and so far away, I could do nothing to get back to the wagon. I am ok with dying, but blowing up is BS!

Ok, different approach. I blow an animals head off. It shouldn't damage the rest of the pelt. That should be common sense. Not saying that is the mechanics behind the game, just saying a headshot shouldn't change the rest of the hide regardless of it's current state.

A headshot should give you a perfect pelt as long as it was a perfect pelt to begin with.

I agree to a point. Options are good, but why not change your approach to those who don't see things the way you do. Not every debate requires heated arguments, when you could take the time to hear the other side.
