Hi Val and welcome. Please, do feel free to create and/or join in some discussions. The site is a little slow due to a lack of content drops from R* for this game but folks are still active around here and willing to help, etc.

Yeah, I have no idea why that it is. THe update was only around 30GB this time around but after it was done it was only supposed to add 4 additional gigs of space. I don't even think I have that much space left right now. Anyhow, not trying to belittle your reasons. I know space and MW resource hogging is a valid concern for a lot of folks.

I bought a 1tb ext SSD for my PS4 a while back and haven't looked back. Large downloads aren't an issue for me anymore. I just recently started getting to a point where I needed to start shifting some stuff on to my internal HDD so I put most of my kids games on there and left mine on the SSD. .....but yeah, I can see how some may get put off by the download sizes.

......that's a hack.

Since you're playing on PC I suspect it was a mod / hack that where someone made it appear in that spot in your session. Not that I'm aware of but I'll defer to someone with more knowledge of PvP in RDO than I. You can create a YouTube account, upload the video to YT and then create a link to it here. Just remember, no naming and shaming of others, self promotion, etc. ......but for what you're describing, it's perfectly fine. ......and welcome to the site David.

There's just no way to really know. Other than their support site, I don t know of any other way to directly interact with them in two-way communication. Im sure most that are AFK in these activities know what they're doing whether its to cheat, troll or whatever. Who joins a race and then just walks away other than those few that might have legitimate reasons? I see it happen once in a while in CoD:MW matches but then they either come back at some point or are kicked by the system for inactivity.

Fyi..... We have a no "naming and shaming" policy here. I have removed the images of the players you posted. Whether it is worth reporting these players or not is really a question you need to ask yourself. We can't answer that for you as we really don't know what actions R* takes with those reports Personally, I say if it bugs you that much then yes, report them. As bad as it may sound, I would also suggest you and your friends try to find a new session to get away from these people vs. booting them out if that isn't working. Worst case, you may have to find other activities you can do where people like this can't influence your gameplay experience as much. Beyond that, I really don't have much more to tell you. ......unless someone else has any ideas, tips, tricks to help?

No idea to be honest. ....sorry.

On PC? I'm assuming the former is restrictions placed on content created by the player (i.e. mods) while the latter is a complete suspension of the users account (e.g. can't log on to play, etc.).

They revealed that there will be an "expanded and enhanced" version of GTAV released in the second half of 2021. GTAO will be free for all PS5 owners for 3 months once it's available in that same time frame which indicates it might be sold separate from GTAV. Until then, R* will be giving away $1million in in-game cash to GTAO players until release. One of the big questions that need clarification is whether the new PS5 GTAO will be free forever for current GTAV owners. Also, will the PS4 version of GTAV/O be playable on PS5 at launch. PS5 is supposed to be backward compatible with PS4 but the games have to be updated for it There are going to be quite a few that will be ready to go at launch of the PS5 and many more to follow they say. I'd imagine most games that are still relevant at the time of launch will be made to be compatible at that point or soon after. I can see RDR2 being among them. Also, any PS4 titles that you can play on PS5 could have the advantage of higher frame rates, faster load times, draw performance, etc. without being specially enhanced. I'd also imagine some games suffering from performance issues might find new life on the new consoles. The fact that they are creating a " remastered" version of GTAV makes me think that GTA6 might be a ways out. Perhaps we'll hear more about RDR2 and other titles compatibility on PS5 soon. Also waiting to hear what else R* has in store. Sony said that yesterday's reveal was just the start. There is much more to be announced before release. "We said that the PS5 has been designed to play PS4 games. We're going through the process with the publishers and developers testing that rather exhaustive library of over 4,000 games. We're happy with the progress that's been made," Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO Jim Ryan tells CNET. "

The post itself appeared to be a cut and paste and included and odd link to Reddit along with formatting that it made it difficult to read. I removed the link and reformatted the text so it was easier for folks to view.

Post your specs. It will help others help you. .....moving this to the PC subforum since it is PC specific. Let's hope someone answers with some advice. I see you've posted this on Reddit and Steam. ....guess they didn't have the answers either?

I got tired of it. I never liked BR but I did like Plunder. What I absolutely hate however is just how bullet spongy the damage is especially with the armor. I will only play hardcore and usually only TDM and TDM Kill Confirmed. I also dabble in the co-op modes from time to time. We usually have enough folks on to just about fill up a team (4-6). It's a blast with a team full of friends as we can start using tactics. I'm still waiting for Insurgency Sandstorm though as it's more my style in regard to military, tactical shooters. There's another that's coming which is heavily influenced by SOCOM. ......although they want to make it more realistic. It releasing on PC first and then console. It's called Zero Six: Behind Enemy Lines.

Yeah, I haven't touched the game in several months myself. Just waiting for the next update whenever that may come.

Maybe I've got it wrong then. I haven't played in months.

No, they shouldn't but my suggestion if you're really worried about it is to just stick with your own custom weapons.

You can't keep those weapons you pick up like that. I honestly don't know what happens to it when you jump on your horse. I don't know how long they stick with you or what may trigger their despawn like certain actions, etc. Why don't you try it out? ....as for why someone would want to keep it, there's really no point in that either especially since we are not able to sell them.

The only weapons you can keep are those that you buy or are gifted, etc. These are added to your inventory and you can only have one of each except with sidearms. You can buy a weapon locker that is made available through the Trader Role and get it out of your inventory that way. .....similar to GTAO.

....and to be clear, I'm just posting this as a notification to folks in case they try to log on during this time and are wondering what is happening, not as a springboard for a debate, etc. Thanks.

Take-Two CEO thinks Stadia overpromised PC Gamer / 2020-06-01 05:12 67 (Image credit: Gearbox Software) While Stadia continues trucking away and we'll be seeing more game streaming in the future from Microsoft and possibly Amazon, gaming up in the clouds hasn't really shaken things up yet. Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick is among those who haven't been wowed by the technology so far, believing that Google may have overpromised. "The launch of the Stadia has been slow," he told viewers of the Bernstein Annual Strategic Decisions Conference (cheers, Gamespot). "I think there was some overpromising on what the technology could deliver and some consumer disappointment as a result." Back in November, Joanna was impressed by how well Stadia worked with games specifically designed for it, like Gylt, but was less convinced by the performance of games like Destiny 2, where pixelation and stuttering were serious issues. "Stadia is just like all the other cloud gaming platforms I've tried," she said. "Often great for singleplayer games, terrible for multiplayer if your internet isn't up to snuff." Six months later, this is still the case. In some cases, the barrier for entry may be even higher than the alternative. A new console isn't cheap, but it's easier to buy one than it is to wait for your area to get the infrastructure needed to enjoy problem-free cloud gaming. Zelnick also questioned the size of the audience. Take-Two released a trio of games for Stadia at launch, expecting to increase the pool of players, but now Zelnick isn't certain that there are enough people who want to play console games but don't already own a console. "The belief that streaming was going to be transformative was based on a view that there were loads of people who really had an interest in interactive entertainment, really wanted to pay for it, but just didn't want to have a console. I'm not sure that turned out to be the case." This doesn't mean that the publisher is done with the platform. Zelnick says that it will continue to "support high-quality streaming services", but only if the business model makes sense.

Well, I don't know what to tell you then. Did you also read that part about RDR2.org being a fan site? We're not affiliated with R* nor Take Two. There are no R* representatives here and there's nothing else we can do other than trying to give advice as to how to deal with it. If you don't like that advice or feel it isn't helpful, etc., what else do you want from us? Don't confuse my trying to give options as some sort of excuse for the issues you're experiencing with R*s product.

First, welcome to the forums. As for reporting players, the only way you can do that is via the in-game reporting feature or through R* Support. If the option is greyed out, I'm not sure what to tell you. It may not be available during races and perhaps only in other sessions like the open game world, PvP, etc. I really can't say for sure. I did remove the user name you mentioned as we do have a name & shame rule here. I'm sorry you're having issues with that player but my only suggestion beyond trying to report it is to try and find another session to play in to get away from him. P.S. I am also merging your to threads together as they are similar in that they both talk about your issue reporting players. I adjusted your title to address both your problems though.

Just keep in mind that RDR2.org is a fan site not affiliated with R* or Take Two. Also, you need to realize what Foxtrot said about tech support and the potential impact COVID-19 might play in this. R* could very well have CS that is outsourced making the situation even more difficult if their governments have shut down operations. Having said that, R* was already struggling after the PC release before the virus was even a factor so this current situation would only make matters worse. .....not much else to say or do to be honest but if you have specific issues, feel free to post about them or search around the forums to see if someone has any tips on a workaround, etc.

I've had people telling me that for years but yeah, if that day comes I'll just have to do what I need to do. .....whether that's paying more for an unlimited service, etc. I know our usage isn't going to likely change and we'll just end up paying more. ....c'est la vie.
