Bold Xs mean the bodies haven't been looted while non-bold Xs mean they have. It is difficult to tell the difference. .....it's just the way it is. Btw, it might be nice to reciprocate with some of the folks who have been kind enough to respond in your other threads who provided answers.

Thanks for replying back as your solution could help others in the same boat. Glad to hear you got it sorted out.

As Parzival said, they will likely be at the Trapper and available for crafting. Happened to me too. btw, I altered your thread titles in your threads so they are titles rather than posts of their own. Remember, the title is simply a brief description of your issue, topic, etc., not a repeat of your post. It looks less cluttered and it's easier for folks to navigate through these forums. Thanks.

Hi @Gobshite. Just an fyi..... When you create a topic, the title should be a brief description of what you'll be posting in the thread. ......not the entire post itself. Also, please refrain from double posting in multiple forums. I deleted your duplicate post. When I get a chance I'll also shorten up your thread title for you (I can't do it from my phone). Thanks for understanding.

Hi Thomas and welcome to the site. Happy to have you on board. Please feel free to browse the forums, contribute, etc. We love that you've chosen to become a member here. ......but please make sure to only recruit within the Posse Recruitment forum. Thanks.

....but that's not everyone and this is specific to graphic issues they are having in Saint Denis. Let's see if we can help Alex with this particular issue. Anyone have helpful suggestions? I stopped building PCs years ago. My only thoughts are to try to see if video drivers are up to date, etc. ......and welcome to the site Alex.

Seems to effect some while not others like a lot of these issues.

Hi Hammer and welcome to the site. I split off your post to make a new thread since this really wasn't a "tip" and also, I wanted to make sure it gets noticed. Having said that the answer is no. In the story mode, you're playing a character and that's your name (Arthur Morgan for example). In online, your name is never mentioned in any of the cutscenes nor in the game world by any of the NPCs. The only time you might hear your name is via comms from another live player. In the cutscenes and when interacting with NPCs in Online, your character never speaks either.

I think you know this but if you want to make suggestions directly to R* and be sure someone from R* reads it, you're going to need to use their Feedback link here: https://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadonline/feedback?redirect_lang=en_us

Ah, ok. Yeah, well perhaps the whole "headlock" thing is a way to get around it as mentioned. Also, just to clarify, Defensive Mode doesn't make you invisible. You can still see people on your radar that are in this mode but they simply appear as a faded blue dot rather than a distinct, blue one. It's easy enough to see them IME / IMO although some say they have trouble with it. Either way, not a bad deal if your intention is to avoid randoms. I rarely have problems with griefers myself but a lot of that is simply due to avoiding those I feel will likely cause problems. .....I know you know the drill already. You can usually tell just by observing them but then again, there are situations where these folks learn to exploit like hanging out in areas where it kicks people out after missions, etc. .....but again, I just don't feed into all that and it's usually a non-issue after a brief hassle. The tools work but they can also be exploited to an extent. The good news is that Defensive Mode is there if you find folks getting more annoying and it does help in that regard IMO / IME.

Well then, that's a big part of your problem if you're trying to mitigate issues with griefers. I would recommend checking your state when you enter a new session like I do and switch back to Defensive Mode if necessary. I also check after running missions that may automatically switch me into Offensive Mode just in case. It will make it more difficult for them to do these things to you and even if they do kill you, I find it's faster just to let them do it so you can be on your way. .....then you can parley, press charges or whatever and you will also spawn further away allowing you to escape their reach much easier. iME, they lose interest pretty quickly in that case. Griefers are looking for a response. I don't give it to them and Defensive Mode really helps with that. ......and Im not even sure we can call them griefers in this case because when someone is in Offensive Mode while free-roaming it is essentially supposed to signal that you're open to these kinds of interactions with other players. Sure, some aspects may not work quite right in the game but Defensive Mode really does make a huge difference to help mitigate griefing IME. ......better than Offensive Mode if you're looking to avoid this kind of thing.

.......and there you go. Seems they saw the light after all the backlash but unfortunately, left their employees to fend for themselves apparently if they have no personal time available. "GameStop Closes California Stores, Employees Reportedly Told to Use Personal Time or File for Unemployment"

.......and I'm less at risk just staying home. Trust me, I wouldn't want to go to either of those stores. My point being about the those other retailers is that they offer way more items in that regard than any Gamestop I've ever been in. They are more likely to have the item(s) I need. .....modems, routers, cables, printers, printer cartridges, paper, PCs, monitors, etc., etc. Why Gamestop thinks they are better prepared to handle these sorts of needs than these other retailers is beyond me. It's just one more chain that's open exposing (needlessly IMO) their workforce to this potential threat. Besides that, how many people do you think are going to be visiting Gamestop stores for anything but games / gaming needs? .....btw, some of these other retailers have limits on the # of people they are allowing in their stores at a given time to help maintain separation. ....or you can order online and pick up in-store. ......or get it delivered. Personally, I would say don't go unless you have to. If you don't have a PC for distance learning, some school districts will offer loaners. Most employers I know provide their employees with the equipment they'll need for working at home. My first choice would be to order online but you do what you gotta do.

I saw that news yesterday about Gamestop trying to justify that they are an essential business in a situation like this. .....you can't make this stuff up. They say they "also offer a wide array of products and devices that are important to facilitate remote work, distance learning, and virtual connectivity" which is justification for them keeping stores open. They also say they encourage customers to use their online store. ......so why not just shut down the B&M locations and offer the online option? Personally, I don't know anyone who goes to Gamestop for other needs other than gaming but who knows. I order online or in a "need it now" situation I'll use a retailer like Best Buy or maybe even Target's electronic section for cables, a modem, ext drives, etc. ......assuming companies who have their employees working from home don't already supply them with the things they need. IMO, this is just them trying not to lose money and maybe even trying to take advantage of the situation by making more. They've already caught a lot of heat though so we'll see if they keep this foolishness up for much longer. https://www.gamestop.com/preventive-measures.html

You can check your defensive / offensive status in the Player Menu. I believe it's the last menu option at the bottom that will bring you to the screen where it will show your current state and give you the option to change it. As for how all this is supposed to work, this is it in a nutshell although a couple of things had changed like the way the game is supposed to remember your last setting on the hostility mode although IME, it is always wise to check when you start a new session, etc. to make sure you;re in Defensive mode if that's your preferred setting.

It is also in Online.

There is an option at least on some of them to either tuck or wear over your boots. As for why someone would tuck them in, it could be to help keep the mud off their pant legs when walking around the streets, etc. during or after rain, etc.

What's in these announcements is all I know.

Yeah.... That sounds kinda crazy. They did say that the updates they made won't necessarily resolve the issue for all. I just hope they get it sorted at some point for those still suffering.

Same for me last night. There were certainly more during times playing alone (during missions), but I still had a range of animals in full servers.

.....moving this to Online section then
