That wasn't an "update". These sorts of promotions are common in GTAO and likely will be in RDO too.

Hi Jim and welcome. I would take @Ozy8753's advice and try out other games to see if the controller functions normally with them. It's a process of elimination. I always start with the easy and obvious first when possible. If the controller works in other games, you've reset the system, etc., etc., then I might check the settings again. If there is an option to change them back to default, I would try that first.

I would report it through R* Support. https://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadredemption2/online/feedback Make sure to select bug/technical issue on the page. ....and welcome to the forums btw.

It's all good.

Yeah, you definitely need to be proactive in your search. Get involved with others. Most folks are pretty quite even when they belong to groups so finding friends takes a little initiative. I'm in the US but our PSN community has a few folks from the UK and other parts of the world.

IMO, it's not that this forum is "dry", it's just that the OP is seeking a very specific group of people to form up with. There are also still plenty of folks still playing the game and lots of active posses within those sessions. Hi Jojo, You're welcome to join our group. We have over 50 folks and I'm sure you'll find a few players to posse up with. I don't know if you're going to find exactly what you're looking for but I've met a few good people I get online with. Feel free to also join the PSN Community (details are in the description on the posse page).

Yeah, I've played with both but keep going back to the Lancaster. ......plus, although I like the style and history of the Henry rifle (wouldn't mind owning one IRL), I'm more of a "Yellow Boy" fan.

That guy was the only good thing about that movie.

I posted some of my thoughts about it in the thread below I created on the topic, but IMO this is no different than what they do with GTAO. They always offer discounts on certain items, bonuses on missions / goods, freebies, etc. This helps lure folks back into the online game and keeps regulars playing. In this particular case with the tonics, this special was implemented on the heels of an announcement of a new section on the Feedback site being added which includes Goods and Supplies. As they stated: "Please let us know which Tonics and Provisions you find most helpful, and any other constructive notes for us to consider. The official Red Dead Online Feedback website has now been updated with dedicated sections for Goods and Supplies: https://reddeadonline.com/feedback"

Welcome Jacob. I guess as long as your anger isn't misdirected at your fellow community members, I'd say your condition shouldn't be a problem here. We're a generally friendly group of folks.

Let's not and say we did...... This is a fan site, not an official forum of R*. ......but feel free doing this on R*s feedback site if you wish: https://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadredemption2/online/feedback?step=f2e50892

Yeah, I'm in no way going to dump RDO2 just because I play another game. I've been doing it since RDOs release anyhow. TD2 will simply be a game I play with certain friends and RDO with others. Anthem looks cool but simply isn't my kind of game unfortunately. Heck, I was almost going to give TD2 a pass for a while before a couple friends said they were getting it upon release. For my kind of MP shooter, I'm really just waiting for Insurgency Sandstorm.

Just finished playing a couple hours of coop in TD2. I like what they've done. More of the same which isn't necessarily a bad thing but also improved. Also like the damage model much better with the lower TTK, slow heals, etc. I think it was a good decision on their part.

Yeah, no joke. There really is no sort of matchmaking on that level which is why we really need some sort of balance. I just hope the changes in the next title update will help in that regard.

The good news is that since the campaign had this mechanic perhaps it will find it's way to RDO as well. IMO, it would benefit everyone since it would enhance the depth of the gameplay and also legitimize the need for barbers in the gameworld beyond simply choosing styles. Could also be another GB opportunity for R* to sell more unique styles, etc. since traffic to those merchants would increase.

Should've given them a wider berth to be honest. Probably thought you were playing it casual on purpose and felt you might attack from the rear. I know I would have. Whenever I see someone on a mission like that, I quickly remove myself from the area for both my own protection and as a sign to them that I am not a threat. On the flip side, I will do my best to avoid others while trying to complete a mission but I will tend to take to make the first move if I'm vulnerable and feel someone is too close for comfort. Been burned too many times to give randoms the benefit of the doubt anymore.

Actually, that dynamite was me (sorry, didn't tell you). I was trying to get him off of that cliff. Yeah, I stood there the last two times he killed me with my guns holstered to show him how unamused I was. ......I was also doing the same thing (blocking and reporting each one). Unfortunately, as soon as you parley with one in a posse of griefers, the rest come in. ......big problem right there in the whole parley design. Anyhow, you didn't see this after you left but they went up North and griefed another posse of two until those guys left. I was hanging out in the train station and then made a bee line for the town to sell my stuff before I logged off.

I'm semi-retired but even though I'm at home I still can't bring myself to game during the day. Not that I never do but I guess it just makes me feel weird if I'm not doing other things with my time during the day. Took a year just to get used to the whole "not working" thing.

Pre-ordered D2 a couple days ago and downloading the beta for D2 now. Probably be on tonight as well and some of the weekend.

Make the suggestion to R*. I think it's a good idea and one that others have expressed as well: https://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadredemption2/online/feedback?step=f2e50892

I'm sure they will. It seems to be a successful formula for them in GTAO to have these periods of special discounts, weekly/weekend giveaways, etc. I also don't think it's simply coincidence that this special on tonics was at the same time they announced a change to their RDO Feedback site:

Cool, thanks. This is the only real way we have any chance as a community to try and affect change in the game and R* is encouraging people to do so.

Opening a support ticket won't do anything. That for reporting bugs and help with things you can't figure out, etc. The issue is in the game's design. Either way, you've gone the Support route now I would suggest you use their feedback page....

....moved to the RDO forum.
