Hi Sadie and welcome. I'll go ahead and move this to the Recruitment sub forum for you. Good luck.

That is not a dead end. That link @Parzival provided was the official R* Feedback and Support page. If you're looking for a refund for your purchase, you can certainly try with SIE, but I'm surprised they didn't send you back to R* for this. ......either way, the link provided is not a "dead end" as I checked it myself as well.

Hi @SLAY3RWG and welcome.

Hi Cap'n and welcome to the forums. Just to clarify, RDR2.org is a fan site not affiliated with R* or Take Two. When you said "You", I wasn't sure if you realized that. Either way, that is what these forums are for to help provide a platform for RDR2 fans to suggest and share ideas, help fellow community members or to seek help, etc. If however (for good measure) you want to plant a bug directly in R*'s ear, you can also submit some of what you share with your fellow members here over on R*'s Feedback site. Now, you won't get a response but think of it more as a suggestion box of sorts that R* monitors: https://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadonline/feedback?redirect_lang=en_us Again, welcome and we hope you make RDR2.org your go-to source. I think you'll find the community here quite refreshing.

The OP was a completionist who didn't like the story missions but was so determined to get better medals he would keep replaying the same missions. That would drive me crazy and I happened to like the game. ......and I said it back in 2018 and I'll say it again but IMO / IME the main missions really are a just a way to help progress through the story. Where these games really come into their own is all that you can do in between them. .......and that is where I spent many hours of my time. I really didn't mind the linearity of the story missions. Now, that's not to say I like games on rails necessarily (with a few exceptions), but these are way more than that. I'm not saying I don't have gripes about some things with R* games but their stories are not one of them. That is something they really do well at IMO. Obviously, if these games were really as bad as folks like the OP made them out to be, they wouldn't sell as well as they do. If it's not your cup of tea then it's not your cup of tea. Doesn't mean someone lacks coordination or skills in real life because they don't agree with someones take on certain aspects of it. ......it's just a game and folks will either enjoy it or they won't.

@JGrabek, I added your other thread to this one since it is essentially the same problem.

On the PS4 I know you can use the L3 button to help calm your horse while riding and it helps restore stamina. I don't ever participate in the horse races so I really don't know how it differs in this regard or which breed would be better for such things.

I mentioned it earlier in the thread with the full description of how all this is supposed to work but here's the bit about that specifically: Press Charges: When a lower Hostility player is killed without retaliating they will have an option to “Press Charges” during the respawn period, which will enforce an increase on their attacker’s Hostility and Bounty value. Press Charges is not available if you are a high Hostility player or marked as an enemy to the player who killed you.

.....you mean R3, right?

Hi Budark and welcome to the forums. I'm going to move your thread to the PC section of Online to see if you can get some answers. I know you say your setup is not the problem but it may help others help you if you post you specs anyway. I would also advise browsing through some of those threads to see if there may be a solution to your problem in what someone else may have shared previously. Sorry I personally have no answers for you.

I thought it was R3 that activates it when aiming down sight with L2?

I don't play very often at all these days mainly because I'm just waiting for more content. ......but R* isn't removing the Roles from individual accounts for inactivity. I still see my stuff when I log in and you're on more frequently than I am. In your case I would say it's just the same bug others in your situation are experiencing like the camps, etc. RDO is the same like GTAO where businesses and everything else should still be there even if you're gone for a while.

Not exactly what you're asking here to be honest. Are you inquiring if someone else can run your posse in your absence while you're offline, doing other tasks, etc? If it's your permanent posse, I believe you need to be online and in the same session for people to join your posse. As for others adding waypoints in your group, I can't recall if another player in the group aside from the leader can create one that everyone else can see.

Yeah, you really need to do manual saves at key points in the game or prior to potentially dangerous situations, etc.

Hi Phadez and welcome to the forums. Just note that as long as this thread isn't leading into promoting your website and YT channel, we're all good and you're more than welcome here.

Hi Necro and welcome to the forums. With that our of the way, this was a Necro bump of a old discussion from 2018 initially about the PvP modes in RDO and some speculation as to how the gameplay would be in the future. The game was still in beta at that time IIRC. Either way, no one is forcing you to play the PvP modes if you don't want to nor is anyone here expecting you to.

Moving this to the recruitment forum.

The OP can contact you via your reply to this thread.

Yeah, not entirely sure what they meant by that remark but I have a feeling....

Yeah.... Now that I think of it, I believe the owner set it up so that new users have to post a few times before they can use PMs. We have had issues in the past where some would join up with ill intentions and this was to help mitigate that problem. The OP should be receiving emails from these responses if they set up notifications. I also see they visited less than 24 hrs ago so maybe they are still checking in on this thread. If they don't seem to be active, I would recommend checking a posse from members who are more active in the community.
