I will believe it when I see it. The spectre of the first RDO and how RS neglected that game to focus entirely on GTA5 looms large in my psyche. I'm starting to feel deja vu as we head into the third month of this so called beta period. Of course I hope I am wrong.

No one knows when this beta will end. RS have not been open about what content they will add or when.

I did a stranger mission which I received from the guard at Wallace Station. The mission was a "recovery" where you search for a horse and buggy. The one at the campsite where you discover a bear standing over a dead npc. Of course the bear charges at you and you kill it. Well I searched this npc after killing the bear and found a treasure map, "Calumet ravine." This is the first time, I have found a treasure map doing a stranger mission. Has any other player looted a treasure map from a stranger mission? I have looted 7 treasure maps from gang hideouts. So obviously this is not the first time I have found one.

If your calculations are right it would take approximately 330+ hours to earn enough gold to buy the Black Arabian (42 gold). A special saddle would require another 144+ hours of grinding!!!

YES! Being able to choose your own location and your camp staying there until you decide differently is what I would like to see as well.

Reaching rank 90 allows you to purchase the Explosive Express rounds pamphlet. But they are expensive. $1000 or 40 gold.

I agree. Watching my back, when I am busy doing something, is not a strong point for me. The last three times I have been online. Players have sneaked up on me and taken me out. I usually then kill them. But I need to have eyes in the back of me head.

I have killed griefers 300+ and I will just go on killing them. Now my bolt action rifle has explosive express rounds (one shot kill). The remedy for me, grind story and stranger missions till you get a very high rank. Then you go Equaliser on their asses. Nothing more beautiful in this game then watching a griefer fly out of the saddle and dead before they hit the ground. Then you run them down and kill them again.

Well I was not in the wild west, but I do not believe for a moment. That people in those days rode around killing other people at will. Because they were bored, thought it was fun or enjoyed ruining other people's experiences. You seem to contradict yourself. You accuse other players of moaning. Then you tell them the best solution is to quit the game and join another lobby? That is your solution? Why don't you fight back after all if killing indiscriminately is part of the game's realism. Then dying constantly is also part of the game's realism. Your actions are ruining the game as well. If you are being bullied then fight back and never say die. Don't run away and hide like scaredy cat. After all, are you not some badass cowboy. GIT GUD!

The small lake was in RDR 2010.

Mmmm yes this beta is going to last, for several months. This is a first for a console game? In the two months of this "beta's" existence so far. RS have added just two new things to online. Microtransactions and a broken PVP game that no one asked for lol.

Easy if it's a stallion it has balls, a mare none. If that is not working for you enter a stable look at the horses specs and it will tell you male or female.

Yes it is definitely a bug like Harlock1796 says the mission will kick in a few mins later.

Doesn't help game play though, does it? What is the point? Is there a DLC coming, featuring the mysterious man in black's role in what happened in Armadillo, for example. Online it is, just wasted space. Boarded up buildings with a pall of black smoke hanging over them.

Money is easy to make in single player. Everything you do earns cash.

Turning Armadillo into a cholera ravaged ghost town was not a good idea. New Austin lacks a decent social hub like Saint Denis or Valentine and Blackwater. The whole state seems empty. I'm hoping that long term there is a point to this creative decision.

I agree another great film from the ingenious Coen Brothers.

Unfortunately no. You cannot swap gear bought for one saddle to another. Is this because of the so called "beta" or deliberately set up that way for RS to make money from microtransactions?

Red Dead Redemption 2 has sold 20 million units worldwide making it the biggest selling game of 2018. Incredibly GTA5 was the 11th best selling game for 2018, five years after it's initial release. Just saying.

Yeah I have seen a player wearing the helmet as well not in PVP either, but in the story mission Love or Honour.

For me these rounds are a godsend for dealing with asshats who think it is funny griefing. I use a bolt action rifle because it has maximum damage. Cannot say the same for a revolver or repeater. You don't need these rounds for indiscriminate killing that has been happening since day one anyways. After all you can take a player out with one shot to the head from a varmint rifle.

Expensive yes but what isn't expensive to buy online. As for crafting you can only carry 10 animal fat and it is easy and quick to get. For example I go to the heartlands and shoot Canadian geese, several breeds of duck and golden pheasant. Takes 10 mins if that, to acquire the animal fat to craft these shells.

Mmmm really? My upgraded saddle bag holds 10 of everything, except jewellery. Hardly a significant upgrade. $80 is a lot of money in this game.

Personally. I get the buckle first. Then that is out of the way and I can just focus on resetting the awards thereafter.

Yes they are a one shot kill on players and NPCs.
