For players or Varmits?

Lol.... He was wandering after a prostitute towards the pig pen out back...

Definitely buy horse insurance if you are going to be a long term player. At 4 bucks a pop it really adds up and for only 125.00 you are good forever. 31 horse deaths may seem like a lot, but spread that over a few years and its only like one death every 2/3 weeks.

Don't hit the red button just yet... This is only Beta, it will get better.

So an RTV covered wagon? I'd buy it. From what I've seen there is coding in the game already for another Undead Nightmare, so it looks like that's coming. I'm hoping they add a metal pie pan.

GTA has cars, planes, boats, militarized vehicles and businesses to add with DLCs. RDR is a much earlier time so R* has to find other stuff to add for us to purchase and grind for. What would you like to see? I'd like to see: Farms (in place of businesses for money making) NPC outlaws for your camp would be awesome (just randoms walking around with the occasional side mission) Hunting dogs Tahiti 😎

The game lets you put animals,pelts on other peoples horses and also bodies. I had a troll who was particularly annoying ... So I followed him to Valentine, I quietly stabbed someone and put the body on his horse while he was in the gunsmith. I then shot a few rounds in the air to get people to notice the area. He came out to find himself wanted for murder, tons of witnesses and a full on assault by the law.

Yes, you're right, thankfully. I didn't lose any bonding, just keeps saying I've achieved level one.

So, two times now, my horse has lost all bonding. Both times the horse was at level 4. The horse didn't die, I know that resets the stats. Basically I logged off with a level 4 horse and logged on with it at level 1. Anyone else had this happen?

Yup, currently this game is closer to Fortnite, both in the design and the other players.

You know my comment was in response to "what would you do if rdr O stayed the same." right?

Idk about everyone else, but I'm good playing story mode. If I ever get the urge to deal with trolling and constant whining, I'll have kids...lol

GTA O was the same trollfest when it launched, they added the dunce lobbies and it lessened a lot. If they dole out bounties to the trolls it will force them to either play the game or leave.

Makes sense. They definitely don't want to deal with backlash like Wildcard got with ARK (they earned it though).

Well the you won't get boring... Seriously though, all this talknig from us and they're going to zero our progress after Beta anyway...lol

You are quickly becoming my favorite poster..

All of those would be a huge help. The only thing I would add would be no bounties if you are defending yourself

There needs to be a heavy bounty for murder or jail time if they don't have money to pay the bounty. This would force the trolls to actually have to play missions to come up with money to pay their bounties. It is so tiring hearing "I enjoy being chased, pvp honor, it's fun to have to watch your back....blah blah blah..." There is nothing wrong with a some of that in a mixed balanced game. I don't want the game nerfed, I just want people who exist online to stop others from playing to be controlled. Imagine an NFL game where the teams kept trying to kick the ball every down.... Silly right?

You would think this would be common sense, but R* logic states differently...lol

What really sucks is the horses. A majority of the time we are off our horses and far away from them. Anyone, at any point can kill your horse and make you lose hours of bonding. That's a whole lot worse than just having to call Mors mutual to get a replacement car. Losing the pelts when you die is incredibly unfair and doesn't make any sense. I mean, if you die, when you respawn the horse is still there. So what's the reason the pelts are gone? I was out hunting, got shot in the head while skinning and lost a ton of pelts. Makes zero sense except for a way to keep our money reserves down.

You are 100% spot on. The bounty system should be the same for online as it is for story. This is what they promised us was going to happen, so hopefully they come through.

Exactly. Don't get me wrong, it's fun running and gunning, but not all the d*mn time. Would anyone have enjoyed story mode if Pinkertons were every single place you went, shooting you if you were wanted or not? There needs to be a balance, so people can actually do stuff besides shoot. Actually, with a map this big, they could just make certain towns have stronger law and other towns to have complete idiots as sheriff. This would be pretty accurate and allow people to decide if they want to venture into the bad parts of town.

They should make it so that player's get bounties for shooting other players/horses and only player's with bounties have blips. Then they could hunt each other and leave the rest of us to actually play all the game has to offer.

Ultimately all the trolling works to R* favor. If we're constantly dying, then we're not earning money to buy things we want. Luckily R* will be adding Stag cards for us to purchase to fix that.

I don't really want a passive mode, I am only suggesting it because it's a quick fix to deal with trolls who will only log on to kill people and nothing else.
