A few points here, and hopefully your understanding and enjoyment of the game will grow over time. Yes, there's a few annoyances that we all find, but the positives the game brings you tend to outweigh the negatives. You can review current quests by looking in your log (tap left on the dpad). Navigating through these screens will update you on the current progress/requirements for your current tasks. More tasks will appear as you unlock them, tasks will disappear once they're completed. You can also review your overall progess in the pause menu. There should be a command for exiting the journal view. I've not heard of anyone else being stuck here on the console version. Running from Valentine to the camp doesn't take that long (I'm guessing this kind of thing did happen back then). There's also nothing to stop you from stealing a horse and riding that back to camp. Animals will attack you on occasion, and spook your horse. After a while, you'll learn how to react to these. You can't lose a Legendary pelt once you have it. If it does get lost, it will get transferred to the Trapper where it will be available for use. If there's things you don't understand, then please go ahead and ask. There's many other walkthroughs and resources out there on the web, and hundreds of YouTubes. Use these to help you get the best out of your game, or continue to explore it on your own terms. Be prepared to get partway through the game and then restart it from scratch again, the game gets better the second or third time you play it when you learn the ideal balance between the story and environmental aspects of the game.

I know the one. It's more about technique, I don't think you need an especially fast horse for that. Horse stimulants may help as well. I managed this mission without needing to hunt for a faster horse.

You don't really need to bother. I didn't find any real advantage to getting any upgrades for horse tack or for different breeds over cosmetic differences. I never really had any situation where I felt that a faster horse might have been better for me. For stamina, learn to voice-pat. That same button you use to pat/bond with the horse at slow speeds, you can also use at higher speeds - you should hear Arthur/John say something encouraging and the horses stamina metre should increase a bit. Get the rhythm right and you can gallop from St Annesburg to Blackwater without stopping or slowing.

I just moved this to the Onle section of the forum, where hopefully you should get some answers.

It looks like L1 is taking you to the weapons wheel. Have you re-assigned your control layout? If so, reset L1 back to the original mapping and you should be fine.

You might have to restart that mission. You're supposed to go to Bill and talk to him. He should give you the detonator cord and you're to unwind that and attach it to the detonator and then return to the gang.

Yes, it was patched in.

Seems fine for me on my Xbox..

Van Horn has a Fence. https://reddead.fandom.com/wiki/Silas_Crawford_Wholesale_%26_Retail Bear in mind that Fences only become available as part of the story-line, so it makes logistical sense to progress to a certain point before you go hunting for other items. This is one of the key aspects of the game that you only really get from playing the game over. Items and enhanced skills are unlocked as part of the story line, which makes the other activities and challenges easier (or in some cases, possible). Finding the best balance between story-line and open world is the most rewarding aspect of the game.

It's mission-dependent, or so I read. "In Red Dead Redemption 2, The Evans Repeater can be purchased from any gunsmith after the mission "An Honest Mistake" in Chapter 3. " https://reddead.fandom.com/wiki/Evans_Repeater_(RDR_2) This weapon was released into console editions of the game from last year's story mode patch. I've not replayed the game after the patch, so I can't personally confirm this is the case.

The old brass compass happens to be nowhere near the sea. You only get once chance to get it, so if you really do want it, then you should be able to discover it by using Google (I won't spoilt it for you here). Searching on the forums here will also give you the answer. With the pipe, you can only give items to your companions when you're not in mission mode. When you get back to camp, you should see a marker on your mini-map indicating where dutch/whoever is and a "give item" option should come up when you interact with them (you can't give an item in the middle of a conversation).

It really doesn't matter which one. If you habitually loot everything/person you see, then money won't really be a huge issue to you. I generally left the carcass of Legendary animals right there on the ground after I skinned them.

Lgendary pelts go to the Trapper, other legendary items (claws, teeth, etc.) go to the Fence. The meat, you can cook, or sell if you want. Just don't sell the pelt or the other items - give those to the intended people so that you get the full rewards from them.

A few tips here. As early as possible, try to obtain the Buck Antler Trinket. This will increase the chances of you getting a perfect pelt. Use the correct weapon. A Varmint Rifle is best for rabbits. Only kill three star animals unless you need the meat. Rifle shots will spook nearby animals, so if you waste a shot on a one or two star animal, a potential three star animal might get spooked by the sound of the shots and escape. Track at long range using your binoculars. If you have a tracked trail to follow, you can take your time in quietly following the animal before you kill it. Good luck, rabbits are tricksy little critters.

To get the absolute best out of the game, it's probably best to have two or three goes at it - then you start learning how to balance the story line, your ability increases, and the side missions and challenges. Glad you're enjoying the game.

It's only on your third play through that you get real detail in the journal because by that time, you really get how to pace the games open world activities against the story missions. It really is a great read, and even after so much time playing the game, there's probably hundreds of sketches and anecdotes I've not managed to include in the journal.

I imagine that Rockstar are putting a lot of learning into the COVID-19 enforced remote working and working out how this affects productivity. Interesting how that IGN article makes no mention at all of the COVID-19 situation and just assumes that everything is normal.

I completely agree with the learned fellow above. There is extraordinary depth to this game.

Certain aspects of Dead Eye are only discovered during game play - to start with, the use is fairly rudimental.

Yup. Play a game like CoD and you'll see how rigid the campaign missions are, and how rigid the game as a whole is. The replayability of these games is close to zero, unless you're hunting achievements (you chump your way through a mission, kill the major with the RPG, and quit as soon as you see the cheevo pop). RDR2 does have a high replayability as far as I'm concerned (I should know, I started over from scratch three times). After a while, you get a feeling for how to balance the stat enhancing activities against the story missions to give you a better gameplay experience. If you take the open-world aspect as being equal (or greater than) the story missions, things get better. I spent over 700 hours playing RDR2, and I don't regret a minute of it (except maybe that time I left Buell on the train tracks and he got run over while I was in a post office, that kinda sucked). The game controls are a bit clunky, but I learned to live with it and I forgave a lot. Except Dutch, I never forgave Dutch.

Try tapping the button repeatedly. That’s what I do on my Xbox.

Move through the story, you'll get there eventually. But don't rush. Well, you can rush on your first play if you want to, but the game rewards players who take their time to fully experience everything.

You should really prioritise Pearson, if the pelts are needed to make satchels because the satchels enhance gameplay in letting you carry far more stuff.. Apart from that, it doesn't really matter unless you especially want to look good on your horse. I don't think you gaim much from upgrading/decorating the camp using Pearson to make rugs and table cloths.

I've not really looked at the newspapers more than a few times. I imagine they're all the same except for the headers?
