Latest rumour for GTA 6: https://www.gamesradar.com/uk/gta-6-leak-project-americas/ Via a Reddit post here

True. But you get so much money during the game that it gets difficult to find stuff to spend it on.

I quite happily threw away two or three days worth of game play to get back a beloved horse. I wouldn't have really minded losing a few collectables as it would mean I play the game for longer, and I really did enjoy taking my time with this game. Outside of this thread, I've never heard of this unsurvivable random attack - most ambushes you can simply ride away from if you don't want to stand your ground. This event might be a glitch. I havent noticed any difference in game play when riding a top tier horse. Indeed, the difference in stats doesn't make a significant difference in gameplay.

You'll need to read the small print or contact Playstation store support if the item description clearly states that you'll get the play guide as a download. Note that the Xbox version of the Ultimate edition doesn't mention the play guide at all. I'm fairly sure it only comes with the physical copy of the game. Have a look on eBay, there's bound to be many of these for sale from people who have beaten the game (or moved onto other things).

It’s as simple as it says. Just look at ten different species of animals using the binoculars and hit the “track” button. Theres no time limit, you don’t have to kill them. Bear in mind that the pop up banner won’t appear on each new one you track. For others of these challenges, you either need to keep a mental count or just keep doing the action until you get told you have completed the challenge.

How many in game days have you waited so far?

" The reticle will be red if it’s set to hit. " And remember to be conservative with your shots. If you shoot someone after the first bullet is fatal, it'll probably count as a miss, so got for head-shots as much as you can (a lot of the time, a single headshot is fatal).

It's a repeating random encounter. As far as we know, there's no resolution to this story - just a guy endlessly looking for his mate Gavin. If you hog-tie and loot him, you'll find a letter with a little back story, but that's about it.

Go to the ford to the northwest of beaver hollow. Camp and stalk to the river bank at dawn. There’s usually a selection of birds sitting on the rocks there. You might need to save/reload a few times to get a robin to spawn.

Yeah, I found Far Cry 5 was pretty good. It has fishing too, arguably more rewarding than it is in RDR2. People basically fished in FC5 purely for the pleasure of it in much the same way as people enjoy hunting and fishing in RDR2.

I'd echo the Sniper Elite suggestion (V2 was remastered recently and is a good deal). Rise of Tomb Raider is aguably better than Shadow in my opinion.

Yep. Which is why he eats more in cold weather. I've never really suffered hardship in going into snowstorms without a full winter outfit.

Yes, it does. That screen where you see what time of day it is also shows the temperature. I've always ignored it - every day and everywhere is short sleeves weather. Arthur/John just eats more when he's cold - I never really bothered with different hot/cold outfits.

Yes. There’s a collectible to collect.

You have to "Solve" the dreamcatchers mission to get this off your list. You might have to Google that one as it's not easy to guess or find. For the lady slippers, you only need to give the requisite amount to Algernon Wasp, as well as all the other junk that he requests. You need to complete all of his requests to gain 100%.

I agree, Warfighter was pretty darned good. You might also remember "Spec Ops: The Line", which had a pretty amazing story that really forced some tough choices on you. I've kind of fallen out of love with these "on the rails" kind of military shooters - they all end up being pretty much the same and have little to give once the short campaign has finished. I don't play online, so spending £40-50 for 12 hours gameplay isn't really worthwhile to me.

That’s good to hear. Hopefully you’ll be able to explore and experience a lot more of the world now.

The map unfogs as you move into the area. You can't get into the south-western portion of the map yet for story-related reasons (it'll open up later in the game), but for the rest, you're free to explore as much as you like between story/stranger missions.

I missed using that feature for a heck of a long time before I found it. And then I used it for everything (gang hideouts, herb locations, animal spawn points, etc.)

The same way as you do in the story mode, I beleive. Go into the map screen and read the legend at the bottom of the screen for "set marker" or something like that (I'm not at my console right now).

After you finish the game, you'll undoubtably find the next playthrough even more rewarding and immersive. Many of us have restarted the story numerous times in order to fill in and enhance whatever we missed on previous play-throughs. It's really easy to play this game far too quickly. Enjoy your time in the RDR2 world.

Yeah, you'll need to follow it, like I had to. You can ride faster than it flies - provided you don't ride into rocks.

I'm pretty sure that R* are capable of being respectful in terms of providing native American content. I'm less certain that a shameful minority of online players wouldn't get overly "realistic" in their abuse of anyone using that content online. Then again, that shameful minority will find other ways of abusing other players.

Yes, it's a range thing. Or the zoom setting on the binoculars.
