Hey guys.. Guess theres a petition to fix RD O over at change.org. Heres the link. https://www.change.org/p/the-players-have-the-voice-rockstar-has-the-power-to-make-the-change-communication-or-actual-fixes-to-rockstar-s-red-dead-online-mode Maybe this will get sh*t moving.

Basically every week when you give us the news on RD O from R*. The topics turns into a bitch and moan support group topic for us fellers that keep sticking around...lol

...This game I got into a solo session last night by pure luck. Everything works perfectly. Camp worked, Bounty Boards worked, animals everywhere, gang hide outs and random stranger events everywhere. About 45 mins later, I noticed things started to act wonky, clunky and less animals.. I instantly Checked the player count. FULL! I mumbled **** IT and instantly shut my game down. Wonder how long R* expects players to put up with this crap....

I can think of many reasons.. Funny thing is, a lot of those reasons do involve pvp. I mean, maybe someone wants to host a full game of players having a fist only battle royal on top of a mountain. Problem with public only is that what ever you want to do can instantly be changed by the actions of one player. Kind of like having a car meet in public in GTA O. If an asshole sees it, its sticky bomb city.

Well, nothing would be stopping anyone from playing in private or public lobbies. The element of danger would still exist in private lobbies. Hostile NPCS and animals would still exist. And some people would actually use private lobbies for pvp. And do other dumb things (That don't required randoms) I mean, sometimes player might just want to fish with friends for a bit and don't have time for a 1 hours explosive ammo/arrow tonic chugging battle with other players. There would be other ways of enticing other players into public sessions. Like special events that only take place in free roam. I mean, I agree. I like playing public lobbies for the same reason you do. But sometimes, I don't really care for others to be around as they just ruin everything.

Not sure if you know this. But this game doesn't have dedicated servers and it uses P2P connection. So if you don't have OPEN nat settings OR other players near you don't have open NAT. You can get disconnected. Thing is a lot of players don't understand this. And they don't care.

Lol.. A few weeks ago.. I decided to be a griefer.. I sucked at it. I Robbed a lvl 50 of his post office delivery mission. At the end , when im supposed to turn it in, I stopped and dropped it. I was in the process of telling the player that 'he can have it' and he killed me. So I had to start killing him back, then I hog tied him. I quickly sent him a PM while he was hog tied, telling him. "You can the have the bag, but don't shoot me" He then runs up to me, stops, does an emote and shoots me. Now, I now full well that its easy for a new player to shoot while doing a emote. He instantly msgs me 'SORRY was trying to do an emote"... lol After he delivered the bag, he invited me to his posse. And I watched his back for while.... So ya, I suck at being a griefer. I end up becoming friends with my intended victims.

R* seems to be to busy congratulating themselves at the moment. They claim RDO and GTA O have seen its biggest number of players ever. Totally sweeping all the issues under the rug I guess. Most of the issues no doubt stem from R* not wanting to use dedicated severs and using the P2P connection model. Which is also something thats caused massive amounts of problems with GTA O.. and still does. Dealing with R* support always.. always ends with them telling you to fix YOUR sh*t. I remember them pulling the same sh*t with GTA O years ago. But like I keep saying. At least GTA O has lobby option. I honestly can't believe that they still haven't fixed animal spawns.. or at the very least, added private lobbies. What is their ****ing problem? They claim its because they don't want to split the player bases, but the player base is split on the amount of players in a lobby anyways. So WTF are they talking about?

YES! Discounts for new or broke ass players. And more clothing! Im so HAPPY!

Most people stopped playing due to boredom or the game being too easy (*Koff auto aim/tonics). Also, R* has turned their back on what made their games enjoyable (Free aim/private/lobby options) If they apply the same bullsh*t to GTA 6, it will have the same effect. People would get tired of playing the game in the most retarded way possible and lose interest. And on top of that, they REFUSE to fix their game. Which is basically killing off the left overs. Which are the only people left playing. Which is us.. GTA O is still a buggy broken unbalanced mess. But, theres tons of sh*t to do in that game outside of their crappy public lobbies.. RD doesn't have that option. I mean, I have zero reasons to play in public sessions. What exactly is the point of forced public lobbies? To get shot in the back by someone using auto aim? Hell, whats the point auto aim? Like I said. IF R* did the opposite. This game would and R* would actually redeem themselves.

R* effectively killed off its role playing, pvp, and free aim community over the past year since the launch of RD O. And most of the FORCED public session game play doesn't work correctly once too many players join a session. Which is basically killing off the remaining players slowly but steadily. And R* paying more for players to do nothing is just making the game boring. All this game needs, is the exact opposite approach of what was done in 2018/2019. That's pretty much it.

More like they finally added it to xbox. How the **** is that sh*t on PC, PS4 and Stadia.?. Seriously.. Stadia got the update before xbox. Is this some kind of joke? Don't get me wrong.. IM glad they added it. But I've been waiting for it to be added just to start a new play through. But it should have been added the same time it was released on PC.

Cant get any worse than before. Not sure what R* is doing.

Kind of like GTA O. When you first join a game your player area has max spawn rate. Once you move from that area it changes. The plus side is, at least I did see some animals after going for a nice ride around tall tress. Just not much.. Hell i haven't seen a badger since 2019.

I just downloaded it. Booted up the game. 3 games I joined. I got my camp to spawn instantly. Animals seem to be spawning but at a very low rate. I saw an owl, a duck, a badger and a coyote. Not much else. This was in the tall trees area. Will jump on later to play some more and see if its better. I guess the swamp areas and gator spawns would be the real test. But I didn't have time to check that out.

So what happens if you get targeted by a full posse of players and you end up using explosive ammo/arrows against them... and end up killing their horses? Do you wanna pay $14000? Thing is R* should not have allowed explosive ammo or arrows in game in the 1st place. Also private servers should exist..

...How about tying the guy up to a chair and using a feather to tickle is foot till he flips out. I think things are starting to hit a boiling point. The person in charge of RD O needs to be fired. R* is literally killing off its player base. The animals and camp issues have been an issue for nearly 6 months. We all know that the issue happens when too many players are in a game. Theres zero reason for there not to be a private lobby till they fix it. Some people will say its a risk vs reward thing. But that's a load of crap. Because only solo players suffer in public lobbies and everything is TIME BASED. Time based progression is there to push people to buy gold. Money is only used for ability cards, everything else can be purchased with gold. R* says they don't want to split the player base. But they split the player base up constantly for everything. Even free roam is limited to how many players can play. R* silence on the matter is also starting to annoy players. No animals for months, but R* will instantly fix gold bar glitches in a few days. And of top of that. They seem to be mostly catering to new players with their XP bonus and discounts. Which is a slap in the face to players who actually play the damn game and put up with R*s bullsh*t. Which seeing their Twitter feed, just shows how everyone is on the same page in terms of being SICK of this BS. At this point. Im just waiting for R* to finally add the PC story mode items to xbox. (which they already released on PS as EXCULSIVE). (MY BRAIN HURTS EVEN TRYING TO EXPLAIN THAT).. Just so I can play one more time through campaign. Then its Resident Evil 3... Cyper Punk time. And maybe, come Summer. sh*t will actually work in RD O.

LOL... You gotta the find the guy in charge. Don't beat on the underlings and workers tho. They probably feel the same as you. Anyways, pick me up on the way there. I'll bring the defibrillators and beers.

From one dog to another, Don't chase the animal sounds..lol Its part of the ambient sound track.

Seeing all those replies ripping on R* warms my heart. Gette'm boyz and galz!

Joined 3 games. No animals Yet, in those 3 games. My camp spawned instantly. Not sure if R* fixed it, or I just got lucky. Since camps are hit and miss.

Well I did just download a 3 gig update. So something was added or changed. Whelp, fingers crossed I guess. Im gonna go check.

Did R* fix animal spawns and camp spawns? I haven't been online to check yet. But since that is the two biggest game breaking issues at the moment and has been for a long time. You would think that would be the top priority in terms of 'updates' . Id rather their update say. "WE FIXED ANIMALS.. WE FIXED CAMPS" ...And another 'featured' free aim game mode. Why does R* treat us like unwanted bastard step children. Id like some 'featured' free aim co-op missions. And would love me some 'featured' free aim free roam please.

Theres a few cabins in tall trees with set spawns that will spawn a cougar and bear regardless if animals spawns are broken or not. Im not exactly sure on the timer for the spawns. But you can lobby jump and keep getting cougars and bears in the exact spot over and over again.

Why does it say my post is hidden?
