    The arrow to the left. You hit it up to vote the answers up. It is in only the two sections of the forum where Q&A is established. 

    what he said,  then the OP is supposed to pick the best answer, although they rarely do.

    The smell of a new pair of shoes out the box. Most people I know hate it but I love it. Same with the smell of a new book. Both bring me back to being a kid. 

    i'll give you the new book one.  shoes i can't go with lol.  I've always loved the smell of books too, i loved going into the library basement storage as a kid where all the old old books nobody wanted to read anymore were kept.  there were books down there published in the 1800's.  Those are now in a museum (the local ones anyway) others were sold in an auction to help fund the remodel for the library a couple decades ago. The smell in the basement is still the same though, old musty paper.

    Speaking of smells i like that most people i know don't - I love the smell of burnt gunpowder.  A long day on the firing range is awesome, wish i could bottle that smell and wear it.  Another one similar is the smell of black powder, not the smokeless stuff everyone likes now, but the other stuff that would create the huge cloud of smoke.  you shoot the gun, wait for the smoke to clear and see where you hit on the target, or if the animal was down or gone.

    And then there's the smell of Hoppe's 9 gun cleaning solvent, that could be cologne also :)

    Let both Twitter and Facebook die. Heard places like Buzzfeed and Vice are tanking hard too cause they got a lot of views and revenue from Facebook and Mark cut back heavy on news being shared on Facebook in an attempt to keep people on there. 

    news?  you mean false stories like Dwayne Johnson being arrested, when it was a picture from one of his movies?  lol  facebook is the worst, i hate it worse than twitter.  at least i can ignore twitter totally (other than the stupid twits on the tv shows).  Speaking of stupid twits i was watching one of the ghost hunter type shows with my son this weekend, a rerun from a while back, one of the guys in the show said something about feeling a cold spot, so a twit posts Oh my room just got cold, i'm feeling it too!  lmao

    Facebook i can't get away from, as much as i try.  My mom's an addict, sending me stuff about my cousins and blah blah, but she has to text it or email, cause i closed my facebook account years ago.  It's nothing but garbage.  Removing the fake news didn't help, last i looked when mom showed me something on facebook, it was still full of garbage and sh*t-tons of adds.   Think i drew the line and closed my facebook when the hiker in Yellowstone park a few years back got killed by a bear, and there was a huge movement on facebook cause they had to put down the bear.  Idiot people would rather have a maneater roaming the park than save human lives.  Never did catch on to the facebook fad.  I opened an account because my son did when he was of age to do so, so i could monitor him.  but then i found out i didn't need to.  i'd get calls or texts from my family telling me everything he was posting and saying.

    It would be sweet if they added the ability for these gangs to get more active as before with ambushes and the like.

    seems like i got ambushed quite a bit by them until i hit the red hat in honor.  then i guess they're scared of you?  i didn't get hardly any ambushes, other than the main ones like riding into Roanoke for the first time with the murphree brood.

    For me, it was the ones near Fort Brennand.  I also had issues near the Overlook camp.  I recalled that I found some berries near there and when back many game-days afterwards to pick something for a challenge, only to see them not there any more.

    Yeah i had a hell of a time finding berries for the challenges. It's like they were on a round robin spawner for their locations.

    Yeah, that;'s the one.  The Forest is very similar in some respects but it's about being trapped on an island after a place crash.  .....but you soon discover you're not alone.

    I think it can only be downloaded though (digital copy).  Also, I would make sure to watch a couple videos or read some reviews.  ......and make sure there is no requirement to be online while playing. I don't believe there is but I don't want to see you buy it and find out I was wrong.

    I had fun with Ark as well but not as much as I did with the Forest.  Everyone is different though.

     

    I had a blast with Ark until i found out you had to either use cheats to kill the bosses to ascend or play online with a group.  That killed it for me.  I had my level maxed out, a whole herd of dino's, all predator dinos like the t-rex, allo, bary, carno, the bird lookin one with huge claws, and a few more, like 20 some combined i think it was, maybe more,  and we lasted like 3 minutes if that against the broodmother.  Was not a pretty site unless you were cheering for her lol.

    My son said they've released more dino's and stuff since i played it last, gotta be almost a year ago, so i'll have to go check it out and see.  I'll look into this Forest game also.  I really dig the survival games.

  7. was thinking this weekend i'd go back and restore my save to fix the glitched legendary fish.  Found i missed a couple stranger missions in the 2nd epilogue i wanna check out, so now i'll just have to finish that damned timed run ad a few other things to hit 100%,

    Not sure people are struggling with something like this to the point they are unaware but... Thanks for sharing? 

    I mean this is common knowledge from what I understand. 

    it's part of the story line, not a big secret.

    I've since learned that plants take a really long time to respawn.  I made a point of taking a look at a spot I picked currants from earlier in the game a lot later (game weeks later) and they still weren't there.

    I since learned not to bother waiting for them to come back - just find another spot where that species is.

    if you're talking gold currants they spawn quickly near the broken down fort west of Van Horn.  that was my go to area when i needed them for crafting for hte herbalist challenge.  pick them, go to west elizabeth, hunt for a couple days in game, go back and pick them all.  took me like 5 trips to get all that was needed for the crafting, 30 herbs i think it was or close to that.

    It may just be old. It's the original controller. Not sure if the parts wear out but it appears to have some issues. The right stick seems to have a small area that doesn't do anything until I move past that dead point. I am starting to have an issue selecting different weapons. When I try to select the weapon at the 9 o'clock position. I consistently end up with a lasso. Oops. Now Im dead, time for redemption.

    parts do wear out.  i have to replace my xbox controllers about once a year or 18 months as the bumper buttons (R1/L1) are cheaply made, or i'm just rough on them ;)  i did go and buy one of their custom controllers you design and can have engraved, so far it's lasted almost 2 years (and i probably just jinxed it).

    I'd be curious to know why they're not interested in repurchase ability for offline players... that was always the one thing I loved about fallout's was two 2 or 3 extra things they would release afterwards to get you back into the game...

    They'll make a lot more money with the online content releases and the micro-transactions than a $29.99 DLC or whatever they charge for it.  At this point it's all about the money.

    The glitches on this game are insane..its either always freezing up, shutting down the ps4, or just not letting me do the steps required to move forward with the mission! And why aren't we allowed to save if you put in cheats..cheats seem to be the very thing frying this game with glitches. I've had it since it came out and have restarted dozens of times due to glitching, I haven't even got to beat the story mode yet because of it!

    Sounds like a personal problem,  or rather your machine is having the problem.  Never once had the freeze/shutdown issue on my xbox.

    cheats haven't been able to be saved for a long long time in Rockstar games, nothing new there.

    Why restart?  save often, then go back to the save point.  Clearing your cache would probably help a lot.

    Not on mine it didn't selecting the survivalist 10 challenge only showed a single check box at any time during the entire challenge

    Yes the box would  pop-up if I caught them out of order but unless I caught them in the order they recommended the check boxes would not progress... 

    Weird, that's how i kept track of what fish(es) i needed to catch still.

    and I hope you're sitting down for the next bit of news but this one is online.

    This is the one and only reason i won't play Fallout 76 or Fallout 5 or whatever you wanna call it.  I hate games that force you to play online only.  I want to have that choice, so i choose not to play them :)  I loved Fallout 3 and 4, was very disappointing to find i had to quit the series.

    On my survivalist 10 it did not give me all the fish in the list I had to catch them one at a time in order.  If you see all 15 names of fish then you are looking at a different list than I had

    you don't have to catch them in order.  If you're on the survivalist 10 challenge and you catch one in the list you get a little popup window saying you caught ______ fish.  If you tap left on the D-pad, then RB/R1 to see your challenges you can see the survivalist 10 list of fish and which ones you have caught, it lists all 15 species there.

    Much, much less time than that if you constantly feed it and pat it while you ride.  More like 1/2 hour or 45 minutes tops, but that's not at all the point of this post.  

    Like @bluntTR4P said it depends on the horse,  standard breeds yeah you can do in an hour-ish.  Elite horses take much much longer.  constantly feeding/patting is a waste of time and thumb energy,  there's  a timer on when you can do it again to get more bonding points after the previous time. 

    Quote

    This is about whether procuring a horse using a cheat code would disable achievements related to replaying missions.

    That was already answered by @Dewy1314,  cheat codes disable achievements and saving the game.

    That's just it, they are ALL ticked but at the bottom it says 14 of 15 caught and so I can't  get the upgraded equipment. (It's the 10th challenge in the Survivalist quest.)  "Catch one of each type of fish throughout the world. " But when I go to see what fish I am missing it says that I have caught them all. I've even caught all of them TWICE! I wrote them down as I went around the world again. It has to be a glitch.

    clear your game cache,  might have to go back to a previous save and catch them all 3 times after that.

    remember that it is not catch and release!

    they are catch and release, i never kept 1 fish doing this survivalist challenge.

    Ok, let me ask this another way.  Is your problem with Survivalist 9, or the Legendary fish?

    you mean 10 :)  9 is the 19 lb fish.

    Legendary count but i didn't do them for this one, i had them all except the 3 in New Austin.  You can catch all 15 fish for Survivalist 10 around Flat Iron Lake, and in the swamps. Just change the bait and the time you fish to match the fish's preferences.

    Thank you so much. I still have the Legendary Channel Catfish to catch. I've heard it's impossible to land though?

    dunno on that, i can't do that part as one of my legendary fish glitched and don't want to go way to the beginning of epilogue 2 and do all that over just for the fish.

    I've caught all 15 legendary fish and all 15 species but it says I've only caught 14 of 15. Is this a glitch? I would really like to finish the survivalist challenge. 

    There's 15 legendary fish and 30 total species of fish (counting the legendary).  If you tap left on the D-pad and look at the survivalist challenge it should have all 30 fish listed and checked off to show what one you're missing.  Here's the full list of fish in the game -

    1. Bluegill 
    2. Bullhead Catfish 
    3. Chain Pickerel 
    4. Channel Catfish 
    5. Lake Sturgeon 
    6. Largemouth Bass 
    7. Longnose Gar 
    8. Muskie 
    9. Northern Pike 
    10. Perch 
    11. Redfin Pickerel 
    12. Rock Bass 
    13. Smallmouth Bass 
    14. Sockeye Salmon 
    15. Steelhead Trout 
    16. Legendary Bluegill 
    17. Legendary Bullhead Catfish 
    18. Legendary Chain Pickerel 
    19. Legendary Channel Catfish 
    20. Legendary Lake Sturgeon 
    21. Legendary Largemouth Bass 
    22. Legendary Longnose Gar 
    23. Legendary Muskie 
    24. Legendary Northern Pike 
    25. Legendary Perch 
    26. Legendary Redfin Pickerel 
    27. Legendary Rock Bass 
    28. Legendary Smallmouth Bass 
    29. Legendary Sockeye Salmon 
    30. Legendary Steelhead Trout 
       

    Numerous websites online with the fishing locations for all the legendary fish. Powerpyx is one i like to use.

    So it's a bit confusing,  2 legendary fish are caught only in missions, the Legendary Northern Pike and the Channel Cat, but it looks like you can catch the Channel Cat after the fishing mission is over with Jeremy, or so i've read on a few sites.  One of my legendary fish glitched, so i can't do this to confirm.

    The Northern Pike you can only catch in the Stranger missions from the Veteran in chapter 6.  At least that's what i've been reading and that was when i caught him.  So if someone has caught the Legendary Northern Pike after that mission series is over, please correct me :)

    That's my point driving a train is faster than riding a horse to discover the different locations yes the Stagecoach is fastest to get there and in my opinion much faster than fast traveling...

    you're right, i didn't think about the large gap along flat iron lake and up between Bacchus station and Valentine.
