9/24/19 Title Update 1.13 (Fixes and New Content)
HuDawg replied to Kean_1's topic in Red Dead Online
The Wolf Man bounty Hunt is crazy fun with free aim and only a bow. Took me almost 40 mins last night on a 5 star Wolf Man. Rolling down hills, wolves ripping me apart... Then went 1 vs 1 in a fist fight against the wolf man on a mountain top in the moon light. We where both howling ....lol I highly recommend bows only vs the Wolf Man and his wolf pack if you're looking for excitement. Free aim if you really want to get crazy. -
Ability Cards; What's Your Recommendation For Defensive Solo Play?
HuDawg replied to KylesDad7's topic in Red Dead Online
Slow and Steady, Iron Long, Fool Me Once all together allows you to take alot of shots (especially head shots) and live. Last card, id use is Live for the Fight to always have your dead eye on charge (And Peak condition OR Strange Medicine for a side swap when dead eyes full) That set up is perfect defense against cheat shots artists and PIB users. Its almost comical how many shots you can take. Been using this set-up since SB was ruined by R*. Been called a hacker for using it, so that pretty much sums it up. That being said, SB is the counter to this set up^. So if you're dealing with someone using SB, swap to PIB. -
Really wish R* would change horses so that all the breeds have the same stats. And we can just choose the skins of the horse.
-
So trying to steal the loot and getting blasted by auto aim and PIB in seconds is better? People used SB to avoid stupid ass auto aim. It doesn't block REAL aim or PIB. And like I said, the only thing SB is now good for, is exactly the thing you're complaining about. Im not sure how its boring as hell not to be blasted by stupid ass auto aim.. Auto aim is ****ing retarded in pvp.
-
Show downs suck anyways,. And SB was never the meta. PIB was and still is the meta, especially now with faster gun mechanics. And the only thing sucking the fun out of pvp is auto aim combined with PIB to bypass aim bobble/weapon bloom Besides, SB was the only thing in game that blocked auto aim. It was the bug repellent of auto aim, especially in free roam. Now, because of this pointless change to SB, (Which made it useless), I can no longer play with free aim. SB is now useless. It makes the users aim all messed up and the people who targets them.. So now the only thing SB is useful for is running around, especially with the faster movement.. (Sure as hell can't shoot with it) And PIB is the counter. Im forced to use PIB now. So instead of long drawn out free roam battles or the ability to avoid getting cheap shotted by auto aim. Im using auto aim and PIB and killing players and NPCS in seconds. Also don't have to rely on aiming anymore or head shots. I can just rapid fire a few shots off into the body and kill someone quicked then aiming at their head.
-
Alls you had to do is shoot the guy. Slippery Bastard was a non issue. I used it the correct way. At range, to avoid lock on when people attacked me for no reason. To engage hostile NPCS and use free aim against them. Now its sh*t. The fact that they nerfed it because a few people can't aim or refuse to use PIB. While leaving PIB as is, is complete bullsh*t. I can kill everyone in seconds with PIB. SB made gun fights take longer.
-
My streak got reset after using change appearance. So watch out using it.
-
Some bounties are even on a trains.
-
At this point id be all for R* removing PVP entirely. The pvp has gone from bad to worse. Rather just play the pve.
-
New content is fun. Love playing the BH missions and hunting. R* speeding up the gun mechanics/player movement up, nerfing head shots, buffing body shots is a huge step backwards. Especially with auto aim and PIB, the game is now beyond easy. Ruining Slippery Bastard is complete bullsh*t, especially while they leave PIB untouched. And adding one silly free aim pvp game is kind of a slap in the face for people who want free aim for everything. R* tossing a crumb on the floor?
-
Hip Fire works really well with the Double Action. But you have to be close range to really get bullets in. It fires so fast that you can put players in that weird stun animation and screw up their aim.
-
R* uses a P2p Connection for their games. So if your nat is strict you get the shaft., Check your nat settings. Also use wired connection. WIFI can cause issues with pretty much all games.
-
As far as the next update goes. They will release a fraction of it.. then drip feed the rest of the already installed update over the next few months. Which make zero sense, but R* started doing this in GTA O a few years ago and is now addicted to drip feeding. Theres also the question about how much of the new update will be locked behind some sort of grind wall that can be easily by passed with gold. Calling it now, some of the unlockables for the new jobs will require massive amounts of play time to be unlocked and they will monetize the ability to skip that grind.
-
Really wish they would just stop with GTA O. Their GTA time line over the past 20 years is kind of a joke compared to how they started. Year 2000-2010. That decade had GTA 3, GTA Vice City, GTA San Andreas, Vice City Stories, Liberty City Stories, GTA 4 with TWO awesome DLCS. Year 2010-2019. GTA V... And nothing but updates to GTA O just so they can milk their player base with random sh*t to buy.
-
Summer Update should have kicked off the summer. Should be gearing up for a fall update by now. Should have called it a fall update. I mean, what is even the point of this game? Earn money.... earn gold. FOR WHAT!>!>>!? Theres nothing to buy. All they keep adding is clothing. Everyones runnin' around slinging gold guns while wearing fur clothing.. looking like some sort of Mississippi Pimp. And im still waiting for free aim lobbies and pvp lobbies. ..lol
-
Ya... its getting beyond reeeeeeeediculous,
-
No they can't... Anything they add to punish what you consider to be bad behavior will be used against players just trying to defend themselves. They can only prevent it, with private lobbies and removing close range blips. When people shoot me in the back and leave the game.. I go to recent players and just join them instantly and shoot them right back.. Sometimes as much as I can.> Even joining other games if they leave. I become their new best stalker friend.
-
When the circle is the tightest that means the shot is dead nuts. When is still open, it means the bullet will randomly hit anywhere in that circle. Double Action is the fastest revolver. So if of combined with quick tap of Paint Black, you can get really fast head shots. And the double action is great for hip firing..

Reading through the article.. "It took over a year for GTA O to become what it is today'? WTF is that dude talking about? Currently GTA O is a mess.. What he means is.. It took a few years for them to truly understand how to nickle and dime their player base and completely ruin what GTA is all about. The '1st' year of GTA O was OLD gen.. Old gen, pre HEISTS update was the best, most balanced, most grounded version of GTA O. GTA O year ONE.. Had free aim/ autoaim/ private lobbies.. As far as "SHOW DOWN" goes.. PVP is a ****ing mess in this game as you can't even chose what you want to play. AUTO AIM ruins pvp. Ability cards/Tonics completely unbalance PVP. And the lack of proper lobbies/hosting/private options killed any sort of true competitive pvp scene. To put this in context. GTA O always had a competitive racing scene. Due to PRIVATE lobbies and hosting options. If R* pulls that same crap in the next GTA Online game.. And forced public only RANDOM lonely races. That same thing will happen to that racing scene as the current pvp scene in RD O.. It will be DOA Then he says some garble about griefing.. "We've already seen less griefing'. Coming from someone who never plays the game, that's pretty funny. Nothings changed in terms of griefing. Its still the same as it always was.
-
Its funny because the article above says R* noticed the popularity of these modded GTA O sub servers... Basically PRIVATE run servers, with the game tweaked to suit taste. Which is the exact opposite of what R* is doing. R* has spent so much time trying to make this world feel real.. Then go and botch the online with auto aim, ability cards, GPS Player blips and lack of Free Aim/Private Lobbies. Im kind of looking forward to Red Dead 2 on PC, because no doubt the actual players/modders will do what R* refuses to.

The actual shooting and aiming is fine in Red Dead.. I see it the other way around.. Its the other 'shooters' that are too over the top accurate. And because most 3rd person/1st person shooters all have the same sort of aiming and shooting mechanics, Red Dead just feels off to some people. Which to be honest, is easy to get the feel of if people actually stick with it for a bit. I don't care how you are, id bet people money if they play through the single player campaign with free aim, it makes the game more exciting and intense with every single shoot out. Red Dead has the best gun mechanics in any R* game. Now.. the 3rd person movement.. That's by far the clunkiest movement in any R* game ever made. Theres to many animations in 3rd person which sort of leads to the clunky movement. Its incredibly obvious when swapping from 3rd to 1st person. In 1st person its less clunky due to lack of 3rd animations. R* should have never added 1st person to the game unless it matched 3rd person. Either make it 1st person as clunky as 3rd, or 3rd as smooth as 1st. Either way,, looking forward to see who R* messes things up OR maybe actually improves it. They still seem to have a fetish for 'defensive mode'. AKA bullsh*t mode.. "Players will take less damage"?

Only if they are in the safe zone tho….

Thing is I blame the person in charge of RD O. Not the people who actually work on the game (They probably agree with me) Single player is amazing. And laid the foundation for online. And the person in charge of online is a complete idiot, who has no concept of game play and balance. Same as GTA O. I mean, Its not that I expect meaningful updates all the time. I have no problem waiting for actual content. Its the lack of updates/fixes/quality of life patches that boggle my mind. I mean, why does R* keep adding clothing instead of horses? They are sitting on already made content to just add 'later'... And at the same time sitting on game fixes that may or may not actually work. This games future will be nothing but Explosive Ammo and Explosive Arrows (its already happening) And if you take 50 explosive bullets, 8 explosive arrows and multiply that by 8 (Full posse) that's 464 potential explosive kills. Which is made EASY with auto aim and PIB. Eventually I will stop playing if the person in charge fails to actually do anything about it. Just like I did with GTA O. Whole reason I quit playing GTA O is due to lack of balance. I don't play GTA to fight flying bikes, flying cars and fighter jets constantly. As of right now.. RD O is going down the same path but at a much slower rate. RD O needs to have ability cards removed, explosive ammo/arrows/ removed. Blips removed. And given proper lobbies. So for me its not about content, its more about removing things that should not be there and adding things that should have been there in the 1st place.
