    I'd like to know how to disable the profanity filter, if there's a way. I wanted to name a mare I had 'Maricarmen', which is really common name in Spanish. Is it because it contains 'marica' in it?

    That would be a question for R* although I doubt they will change whatever it is in their system that is filtering it.  It would easier to simply choose another name or a variation on the one you want (e.g. adding characters, spaces, etc.).

    There used to be something, somewhere on the forum that oulines it, bit I can't find it at the moment.

    I was on my phone at the time so I didn't even bother looking for the details.  There's a lot more than I ever noticed.

    My theory (mainly regarding deliveries) is they won't start if another player or posse are already engaged on one from that location. that defintely happened to me yesterday - my delivery wouldn't start, but I was then able to do so once the previous deliveries had completed. Maybe it's to stop more than one player ending up in the same location at the same time, with a letter to hand to the final resident.

    Interesting theory.  🤔 It seems camp placement may also be dependent on others as well which (I believe) is why sometimes it's is set up in a different province than what a player will sometimes select.

    Silly question @Kean_1  hey partner how does one move up to cowboy or gunslinger? I know it's silly but I don't want to be a rancher ! Lol just curios bro because I see folk with less posts that are cowboys or gunslingers. No biggie lmk

    Its based on the number of posts. IIRC, it's after 100 posts then maybe 500 and 1000.  You're at 94 right now as far as I can tell.

    I don't recall the specifics though.

    "players with those Cards are USUALLY scumbags or griefers."

    I didn't say that all players who use those Cards are scumbags or griefers. It's just usually the case that players with those Cards lean that way, at least in my experience.

    For me it's very similar to GTA Online, the vast majority of players who wore bulletproof helmets in GTA Online were tryhards so if I saw a player with a bulletproof helmet I would more often than not avoid them or kill them if they came towards me. The Never Without One Card is the RDO equilavent of a bulletproof helmet, I'm far less trustworthy of players with it equipped.

    Yeah, I was really just busting your chops.  :)

    ....but since we're on the subject, IME there are a lot of folks who use these things as I do as defensive options which can include fighting back.  Just last night two of us had a pair of what I can only assume were griefers run straight at us (both on the same horse).  We tried changing direction and they changed with us so I made the decision to strike.  

    Each of us split off, circled back and killed them along with the horse and then rode off in the opposite direction from where they respawned.  I checked the map and noticed they made a bee line for Valentine where it appears they were trying to troll others.

    I was tired of taking one-shot hits to the noggin before I could reciprocate so I have been trying out the NWO card.  When I reach the appropriate level, I'll get explosive ammo too.  ......but again, as means of self protection.

    Wish I could feel positive by this info, yet I don't.  Homestead would be nice but I am sure with a Rockstar economy, it will be way overpriced.  As for wagons, will be nothing but a griefers tool for online play.

    I prefer to wait and see how it pans out but that's just me.

    stranger missions in the online game are getting worse, failing to show the mission points on the map and no other stranger missions showing even after relogging to the game, Is this being fixed any time soon as its not helping with the exp for players 

    Here's all we currently know about what is to come:

    More to Come

    Our teams are currently working on lots of fixes, changes and improvements to the game based on player feedback including the quality of life improvements that we detailed in our last status update: Proximity-Based Player Blips, Parley Changes with quicker access to Feuding, Law and Bounty Improvements to discourage griefing while introducing a new Freeroam dynamic between bounty hunters and criminal rogues, plus Daily Challenges with gold nugget rewards and more. We are currently planning to have these and other improvements to the game included in a Title Update scheduled for release in the coming months – we’ll provide more information as we get closer to the date.

    https://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/60828/Red-Dead-Online-Beta-Update-Jan-25-2019

    Anything else about time frames, etc. is pure speculation at this point.  The simply fact is that there is no official release date for the next TU and any potential fixes in between (if any).  If there is any hope to some of the common issues some folks are experiencing, I suspect that they will likely be in the TU.

    The only players that seem to carry on fighting and engage in player vs player combat are tryhards with Slow And Steady and/or Never Without One equipped, if I happen to see another player coming my way with one or both of these Ability Cards equipped I'll always be very cautious or give them a wide birth because players with those Cards are usually scumbags or griefers.

    I use the Never Without One but I wouldn't consider myself a scumbag or a griefer.  😥          ;)

    I have actually been using it for self defense against them.

  9. I think they already gave us the answer about what to expect in the next TU but yeah, I'm expecting bug fixes, the new player blips, parley changes, law and bounty improvements, daily challenges, etc.  

    ......although I really doubt any of that will come this month.

    Nice. Thanks for the heads up. I don't use Twitter so I would have missed this otherwise. Going to stock up on some stuff. 

    No problem.  I'm not big with Twitter but I follow a few RDR sources including R* news feeds.

    What day does this end? It days for the week but today is Tuesday. I wanna do a bit of grinding and clear out my inventory before I stock up but I also don't want to miss out on the deal. You can never have too many tonics. 

    No idea.  They only say "all week" this week so maybe that's through next Sunday or maybe only Friday?  .....dunno.

  11. Just a helpful tip....  You might want to include your platform in your profile and/or the thread title, etc.  Also, your time zone might be appropriate when talking about times you may be playing as we have community members from all over the world here.

    My friend got fed up with the game and was ready to just sell it. I told him to just contact Rockstar and let them know all of his issues and just take a break. I have been frustrated myself quite a number of times but it is worth waiting to see what the game looks like when it is done. 

    Yeah, of course that's a personal decision but I agree. I buy all my titles these days digitally since I have never really sold off any game I ever bought.  

    Personally, I prefer a wait and see approach rather than one based on the current state of the beta or negative speculation of what the future may hold but that's just me.  If the game turns out to take a direction I don't agree with then maybe I'll uninstall it at that point.  For now, I would rather see how it pans out even if that means taking breaks from the game until things get rolling.

  13. Just to clarify....   Properties haven't been officially confirmed although there have been place markers found in the code for the companion app last year that gave a strong indication that they will be implemented at some point.  Same with wagons.

  14. Just and fyi....  Saw this posted on Twitter this morning:

     

    "In the Red Dead Online Beta, Tonics provide relief to the ill and injured and can boost your health, Dead Eye skills and stamina. Stay well supplied and stockpile for emergencies with a combination of Health Cures, Bitters, Snake Oil and Miracle Tonics, all 25% off this week."

    I have to think that, eventually, they'll roll out more camp features that will have it function more like it does in story mode.

    I'm just waiting for properties to become available with the option to spawn within them like GTAO.

    @Kean_1.  I agree it needs reported, but to be fair this a day one issue and for some getting worse as times flies.  At some point Rockstar is doing nothing but ignoring these messages cause they apparently have no answers.

    Thought I was being fair in my post.  I wasn't dismissing the problem, quite the opposite.

    As for reporting, my point was that anyone who has had the problem even in rare cases like me should submit a trouble ticket with R* Support.  The more people that do, the more it will become apparent to R* that this is more widespread problem than perhaps they will admit.  We can all talk about it in forums but we should also be encouraging everyone affected to submit their own support tickets to help drive change.

  17. Well, IMO they need to fix the camps first so you can't be lasso'd, drug out and killed.  .....tested this last night with a friend's camp after he told me it happened to him.  The kicker is that you can't reciprocate.   .....so I like the camp defense idea.

    I also think he should be able to help with trading some items.  Maybe there is a delay or a restriction with some items perhaps limited to just pelts or something along those lines.

     

  18. I feel bad for you folks this is happening to.  I get random disconnects too but in my case they are very rare and seem dependent on the session.  ....I can usually tell something is not right (e.g. lag, missions not appearing on the map, etc.).  Even in those cases I might be disconnected once or twice but again, it's rare that I ever do.

    I still reported it to R* however as this was something they said they addressed in one of the first updates.  .....it's not fixed IMO / IME.

    Cheers thanks for the link. I did'nt realise this was a fan site, it's certainly very professional looking well done.

    Well Jim, we hope you stick around to enjoy it. 

    While RDR2.org is a fan site, it has a wealth of information and I think you'll find it's one of the more friendlier forums around.  ......a great community base.  We'd love to have you be part of that.
