I don't know what platform you're on (since your profile isn't filled out) but on PS4, there is a capture feature to take screenshots within a game and also a record option.

That's not my experience at all. My hunting spots are still filled with wildlife and while carcasses have been adjusted in value, whole animals fetch a good price. If animals are not spawning for you, I would submt a trouble ticket through R* Support because this certainly isn't an issue for all. .....which means something is wrong in your case

I've had a few situations where I had expected them to disappear but was surprised when they didn't. I died a couple times and still had mine. Last night was spent hunting and seeing the impact of the change(s) on that. To my delight, there was minimal impact IMO / IME. My usual haul resulted in the usual profit I'm used to receiving, As time goes on I will be paying more attention in regard to retention of pelts in "after death" scenarios, etc.

Hi Stranger and welcome to the website.

Feel free to do so. I'm simply posting what R* had to say on Twitter regarding the subject of carcasses because some have brought it up. Submit a trouble ticket through R* Support here: https://support.rockstargames.com/categories/115001624507?redirect_lang=en_us&_ga=2.11483380.1732398205.1551383854-1719606522.1525287356 ....and / or your feedback here: https://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadredemption2/online/feedback?step=decd9bdb

Essentially what the Major said. Personally, if I'm trying to farm a 3 star pelt (after finding one using a scope, binoculars, etc.) I like to use a good, powerful rifle and ammo if available just to make sure one shot will do the job. At that point all that is required is a well placed headshot and the deed is done. I don't try to overthink it. I ride on my horse until I see a heard (from a distance) and then search for a 3 star and go to work. Most times I never even find the need to dismount.

I actually spent a session bringing my honor level back up before the update in anticipation of this.

Regarding inquiries about animal carcass sales after Title Update 1.06 in the Red Dead Online Beta:

That's correct. More specifically:

I don't know what to say Reaper. You complain about trolls but then do exactly what they want you to do. Obviously what you're doing is working for you so carry on. I'm just trying to give you advice on how to avoid them.

My reference to finding players was simply to show that it's not easy to know where people are until you are in close proximity. .....or they are color coded as a threat. Personally, I wouldn't be hanging around a town where someone is sniping from a roof but his reaction doesn't surprise me especially after you chose to engage him. I'm not saying it was wrong to do so but you shouldn't be surprised at this reaction. It's always been that way with folks like that in those situations. Nothing new. As they say, don't poke the bear.

Thanks. I heard about that. If it's anything like tracking animals then I would assume it's just as hard to follow when they are in flight. .....especially when someone is using terrain to their advantage. We had a posse that was wreaking havoc on players in Blackwater and then came our way when were at the final delivery point in a mission. My friend was AFK and I was hunting. ......just letting the clock run out. I then noticed these griefers heading toward us so we decided to finish the mission and head out. We didn't run far and just watched. They continued to our last known area but then stopped because they obviously had no clue where we went. It was refreshing for a change. No more wasted time running form these trolls. Thanks for the heads up but even if one these guys ever does pick up our trail, I think it will still be easy enough to lose them using the terrain and environment around me while in a full gallop.

Yeah..... I farm so much meat and hides in my hunting spot that I simply stow the first 2 or 3 star, 4 legged, whole animal I kill. Same with the two sides of the horse. Usually turkeys, geese or whatever I think will get more money. I skin the rest and farm the materials. Now, I'm not taking into consideration individual cost differences but just judging by my usual haul, time spent, etc., my profit is essentially the same. I think I lost pelts once but I recall being surprised a couple times when they were all still there when I expected them not to be. I need to pay more attention to this.

I can only speak from my own experience but we haven't really had any issues so far with griefers. .....but then again, we tend to avoid those colored threats on the map. I also find they are also much easier to evade once they have you in their sights as we can now use terrain and distance to disappear from their radar. I did that with the guy I had to kill the other night. I didn't repeatedly go after him. I simply rode on and within seconds, we were out of his range. It's hard enough to find fellow players sometimes when they spawn in. We use that to our advantage when trying to get away from annoying griefers / trolls. I'm sad to hear about the feud feature being an "option" for the aggressor. Personally, I think that should be forced. In fact, I think I'll submit feedback on that to R* as well as the self-defense/bounty concern. In all honesty, we have found RDO to be a more friendly place in our travels after the update. It seems (again, IME) blue players are becoming more trusting of other blues that they come across.

Yeah, I did some hunting last night and after trading in a typical haul, I got about the same amount I normally do. I still find hunting lucrative in this game after the update. A plus is that I now get paid for all my pelts too.

We went hunting last night in my favorite spot and there were plenty of birds, deer, little critters and even more exotic animals to be had. I loaded up like I normally do and rode into town. With meat, feathers, horns/antlers, pelts, whole carcasses and other bits my payout was what it normally is for that amount of time I spent in the field. To be honest, I find hunting just as lucrative as I did before. What I really like is that I'm now being paid for pelt that I didn't used to get money for due to a bug. I wasn't losing a lot but it all adds up. If there is a way to do it that works well, I agree. Personally, I don't have as much of a problem with the bounty system as some do. I've had a posse member get killed by a low level player we crossed paths with (likely just scared). I shot them with my shotgun riding up behind my team mate. Instant kill and a 20 cent bounty. We simply rode on. ....I paid the bounty at a later time when filling up with ammo at the post office. Something else I found interesting is when I was riding the train through Saint Denis, I heard shooting and then a posse jumped on board with me. They knew I was there but didn't approach. They were being chased by lawmen / posses. I don't know how many they killed (it was a lot) but they never turned dark red like continual murderers do. I dunno..... Seems to me you have to do a lot to get a higher bounty on your head whether that's indiscriminately killing fellow players or vigorously defending yourself. So far, I don't have a problem. Also, griefers have almost been a non existent problem for us since the update so far. ......which is great in my book.

That's what I was thinking..... He's been been playing online and Dad is worried about the story? IMO, if you have to ask then it's probably safe to say the game isn't for him.

Hi Shelly and welcome to RDR2.org. First, I should mention that this site is not affiliated with Rockstar or 2K in any way. This is a fan site. If you are interested in providing feedback directly to R*, they have set up a website specifically for this purpose during the course of hte beta: https://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadredemption2/online/feedback?step=f2e50892 Of course, we hope you continue to share your opinions, feedback and experiences here as well but that link will give you access to R* Support.

@Voss, Since you asked, here's the list:

I chuckled when I read that article comparing RDO to GTAO. Kinda like I do with a lot of the doom & gloom folks who say the game will fail. Seems obvious to me given how RDO is still in beta and not even at the level of where it should be that it's not as successful as GTAO. Only time will tell but I know where I would place my money if I had to.

Oh gawd no. Explosive ammo is already way overpowered. IMO, that would only make balancing issues worse in the game. As it is, not everyone wants to use it because of the associated costs and limited amount. I actually wished they did away with explosive ammo entirely and tweaked the lethality of the other types as needed. ......but at least this way the relatively few folks who have it aren't running around with hundreds of rounds of this stuff. .....IMO.

If I'm not mistaken, that was a full compliment of explosive ammo. You're not allowed to equip more than 10 rounds at a time from what I understand. It's also quite expensive from what I hear. I'm not bothered by the whole GB system or the items that are locked behind them. Its all essentially cosmetic or can also be bought with in-game cash. I was amazed some were taken back by the cost of emotes but then again, that kind if stuff doesn't interest me. I doubt I'll ever buy GBs in this game. ...never bought Shark Cards in GTA either. There will be more events for bonus XP, cash rewards, etc. I would even guess they will have payouts for signing on during a particular time frame like GTA does. Personally, I'm not bothered that they didn't give more away for free with the update. I'm ok with what they've provided so far.

Not sure how I feel about the balances as well either. I'll probably know more after tonight. Seem meat was still fetching a good price as well as other bits. One other piece of good news is that I was actually paid for all the pelts in my inventory which never happened before. .......not telling how many hundreds of dollars I lost there over time. Sounds like carcases pay less but perhaps whole ones will do better now which makes sense to me. I have some rich hunting ground I use to collect game of all types which is where I'll probably be tonight.

Well, I wouldn't call the explosive shotgun slugs garbage. I also use the other items too so while they weren't impressive, I gladly accepted them.

Me neither. I fully expected that things such as this would be tweaked along the way for balance but then again, R* has after all repeatedly said that RDO would be a work in progress even before launch. That includes weapons, the economy, etc. I felt several of these things needed it as well. Personally, I never liked the idea of the whole ability card thing but it is what it is. I also felt they made players already at an advantage even more so. I've paid money to upgrade such things and feel no loss. The way I figure it, everyone else is in the same boat too. These changes may have altered the balance between abilities but I'll simply adjust if I need to.
