Yeah.... Just not happy seeing that the next TU with the changes I've been waiting are slated to release in the "coming months". Seems I may actually have to shelve this game at some point and then revisit it later when more content (that I want) begins to arrive.

Really? I didn't know that. I'll have to try it out next time. There are a lot of things in this game that R* didn't really reveal about the UI, mechanics, etc. No idea why.

Welcome Bandit. Fyi, we have a sub-forum for recruitment posts so I will move this over there.

No, it's not just you. It's that way for a lot of millenials. Seems rude behavior, insults and that whole "in your face" attitude are not only tolerated but encouraged in some cases over qualities like good sportsmanship. Far cry from the way I was raised but it is what it is. As for talking smack to get in people's heads, a little ribbing is one thing but some folks using racial slurs, profanity laced threats, derogatory remarks about yourself or family members, etc. is another in my book. I mute them, report the more extreme cases and block them.

I rarely use my camp for anything but cooking food and even then, I usually just find an open campfire to take care of that. I agree with the idea that Cripps could fulfill the butcher's role in camp. ......but then again, I think it kind of ruins the role that towns in the game play. Perhaps simply adding more butcher locations is the answer then? .....or a roving trader(s).

Hi Bandit and welcome to the forums. We have a Recruitment forum specifically for these types of posts which I will move this to now. RDR2.org also provides a way to create a Posse or community that you also may be interested in: https://www.rdr2.org/forums/clubs/ Might I also suggest you add your platform and gamertag into your profile as it will help those you are trying to reach. - Kean

Just had a disconnect with this error code tonight. Again, rare for me but it still happens.

......or your catalogue.

Who knows about the dude in the video. He may not be able to hit crap with his right hand either. I know I can't really hit much with my left / weak hand but then again, I don't really train for it like some folks do.

Hi Ragee, I'm in the PST zone as well and wouldn't you know it, I'm also past the half century mark too. .....although you have a few years on me. There's a group I started in the Posse section that was made specifically for folks like us. I also have a Community on PSN named "Red Dead Redemption 2 - TeamUp" aimed at the same kind of people. You're also welcome to send me a friend request on PSN (gamertag is the same as my member name here; Kean_1). The only thing I prefer is that folks use a mic when we play as it's really difficult (and annoying to be honest) trying to text back and forth in the game. I also don't troll people but will certainly shoot first in my own defense if warranted. .....but like you, I usually just try to avoid confrontations. When I'm on, it's usually around 8PM. Regards, Kean

Everyone I've played with has had the same disconnect error to some extent or another. Even though it's not really an issue for me since it's rare that I get disconnects, it's still a problem as I don't experience that in most other games I play online.

Much rather be able to co-op in the campaign to be honest. ......but yeah, maybe I'd be interested although I don't see them offering a "for purchase" DLC in RDO (only for the campaign if there ever is one). The things they do add to online will likely always be offered to everyone as part of the experience. GB MTXs are what will be driving RDO into the future.

The idea of a cross draw holster "normally" is that you can draw it with your dominant hand. The idea behind carrying two side arms (e.g. one crossdraw and the other on the hip) is typically so the wearer has a backup that they can access (again) with their dominant hand to help keep them in the fight. That's practical IMO. ......the whole idea of dual wielding is not but then again, we're talking about RDR which isn't that serious about what's real vs. fun (Hollywood). Aside from all that, I agree that they should allow for various ways to wear you weapons. I think it would be cool to mix it up and a way for people to express more individuality with their characters. Maybe add two hip holsters, reversed/cross draw hip, shoulder holster, etc. Probably too much work for them bother but perhaps worth it if they make some of the new setups Gold Bar exclusives. Anyhow, just for kicks and giggles...... Here's a random video I found with someone demonstrating weak hand draw with a cross draw holster just to show that it can be done as an option if needed. Yeah, it was poorly done although IIRC if you choose to holster while dual wielding using the "fancy" option (double click), it will show you holstering a similar way like in the video which I thought was cool the first time I saw. .....but when you just normally draw or holster while dual wielding, it's awful.

It's actually a valid point. There is obviously some disconnect with the information being fed to his Social Club account. Not knowing how or when that data transfer is occuring, etc., who's to say.

Not sure what help we can provide here for you if it's an issue with their website or your R* SC account. RDR2.org is not affiliated with R*. Unless a member here has some inside knowledge into a solution, then I think your best bet is to continue to pursue solutions through R* Support until you get an answer or someone willing to try to find one for you. I wish I had an answer for you.

I would urge you to use the in-game "report" feature. There is one description that covers abusive / racist language. That (I believe) gets reported to Rockstar. I would also encourage you to go to the player's profile (there is an in-game link) so you can block them. .....that takes you to their profile within the PSN. This will also stop any continued harassment outside of the game but if someone is dumb enough to message you using the PSN feature before you are able to block them, then report them to Sony right away. They will see the message as proof of harassment, language, etc. and will take action. Other than that, I would suggest muting everyone except those in your own posse if it's overwhelming.

Well, as I mentioned, I've got 200+ blocked players on my PS4 list and counting. ....so I'm unclear where those Sony reps got the 50 or even 100 limits from.

They still do. Some even hire community representatives that help interact with their fans on various social media (e.g. Reddit, Twitter, etc.) incldung forums. Essentially gathering feedback, organizing it and reporting that information back up the food chain. Even product manufacturers do this. In the tech company I worked for the past 30 years, we had a department where one of their responsibilities was to follow such activity without participation unless it was via our own forums. I would be surprised if R* didn't do the same on some level even if it we're just minitoring.

Well, they don't hide anywhere on this site given there isn't any affiliation between R* and RDR2.org. This is a fan forum.

Ah.... Maybe that's what they were talking about then (limited to 50 in that case). .....although that doesn't really make sense. Anyhow, glad to see you can still block more than 50 on your console.

Yeah, my misunderstanding. I don't know how feasible it would be but sure, I'd be interested in that. Perhaps so. All I'm saying is that it would have been nice sometime in those past 5 years since the latest gen of consoles released to offer a remastered RDR1. I have a feeling it would have been quite popular and maybe even warranted its own resources. .....but that's all a moot point now.

Same here (PS Plus) I am checking from my console in the PS4 menu. These are people listed in my blocked list. ....the list you get to by pressing [options] and then "blocked players". When I select a player from the list, the next screen shows an option to "unblock" that person. btw, I see a couple players I just blocked the other day so I know it's still adding new ones.

I voted yes but I guess it depends on what they would deliver in a remastered version. Hell, I bought GTAV again when they ported it over to PS4 but even with the graphics upgrade and the population increase, etc., it was essentially based on the same foundation they had from PS3 in regard to the mechanics, etc. I guess the thing with GTAV was that it came out early enough in the PS4s life cycle that it still felt like an upgrade. If GTA6 was already out and they released a remaster of GTAV, I wouldn;t ever bought a PS4 copy of GTAV. IMO, R* missed a golden opportunity to make RDR1 a remaster before RDR2s release. If you would have asked me this question months before RDR2 hit the shelves, I could tell you with 100% certainty that I would have bought it.
