Did I miss something? I didn't hear anything official about a patch being applied to fix the animal spawns yet.

.....and funny enough, it's the same media taking those relatively isolated incidents of "racism" and making it seem widespread so then it becomes more of an issue in people's minds. ......fuel on the fire. As for the virus, yes, the media plays their part in making people panic but it also should be of concern to people. It's not necessarily the mortality rate of the virus itself but the resulting complications it can cause based on a myriad of other individual factors. Yes, the elderly are more susceptible but so are a lot of other people with lung problems (e.g. history of pneumonia, asthma, etc.), folks that are or have been recently ill, etc. For those with a compromised immune system, it doesn't necessarily mean having AIDS or some severe disease, cancer, etc. Also, seemingly healthy folks can die from complications of viruses like pneumonia. My pulmonologist lost his friend who died from that after getting the flu. Very athletic and very healthy otherwise. .....stuff happens. This season is already particularly bad flu season. I've been warned that that there are now two flus to watch out for (I already got one last year and had pneumonia myself). I can't afford to get another and certainly not something like this new coronavirus which seems to target people's respiratory systems (it had been compared to SARS which is something no one should simply shrug off). .....btw, the doctor who initially raised awareness of this new virus died from it last week. .....he was just 34 years old. This virus is spreading like wildfire over in China and cases are popping over here on the west coast. Personally, I'm glad the U.S. government with agencies like the CDC are taking the spread seriously and doing what they can to minimize the exposure of our citizens. .....so no, I don't think it's being blown out of proportion in that sense but of course, the media will always try to sensationalize stories to make things sound worse than they really are. In short, I wouldn't just shrug this off but folks should use a little common sense to cut through the media BS.

Things like this can give players a reason to play so in that sense, it could be worth it to those looking for a goal and rewards along the way. ......which pretty much sums up most players of games like these I'd imagine.

....this is why I ask for sources from people. I haven't heard anything about this myself until this post. I wouldn't assume anything until there is more information but even if it is true, it may not mean anything in regard to the implementation of hotfixes, etc.

Unfortunately, no. I heard about being able to change your region or something like that. The guy made it sound easy but you know how that goes. .....rarely things work out that well for me.

There's ways around that though, right?

Well, if you're playing the campaign, it doesn't really matter since you can play offline. .....unless you mean RDO (this is in the single player section). Also, I'm assuming this was something shared by R* (that everything is going down) tomorrow morning. .....source for others benefit who may be affected?

@jadams19871, Thanks. I was wondering as I'm subscribed to their Twitter feed and news feeds, etc. I didn't recall hearing about that specifically is all.

.....source?

There is a weapons locker of sorts you can now buy for your camp like in GTAO. You can store unused weapons there but no, you cannot sell than nor drop them once acquired.

Money shouldn't be a problem in this game. Express isn't all that expensive relatively speaking. Occasionally I max out all my ammo I can buy via the catalogue and then pick up from the P.O. when needed. ......rinse and repeat.

Yeah, Express were the ones I was thinking of. That's what I use 99% of the time.

I found it in Account > Account Settings > Notification Settings.

I guess I didn't get the reference. .....Seinfeld?

.....or get them to use the Feedback site as that is a direct line to them and what they use when considering changes, additions, etc. Obviously, discussing things folks want on social media, etc. is fine but IMO, this should be in addition to. Folks should be aware however that the Feedback site is a more of a suggestion box of sorts that R* reps monitor. They don't typically respond to inquires, etc. as that is not what it's for.

I wouldn't call it rare in our SW deserts as it can depend on where exactly you live out here, the time of year, etc. but yeah, the frequency in the game can be annoying.

fyi... I know most folks have finished the game by now but we still get some new members joining who are just discovering RDR2 so I added a spoiler tag to your title. Hope you don't mind.

Hi William and welcome to the site. Looks like this is regarding the Online PvP modes so I'm going to go ahead and move it over there. However, it also looks like you are making a plea to R* and I feel I should point out that RDR2.org is not affiliated with R* nor Take Two in any way. They may not even monitor this site but who knows. They've never made themselves know here AFAIK. Just some food for thought..... R* makes decisions at least partly based on activity as well as input they receive directly from fans on their site and (I'd wager) from social media (e.g. their Twitter feed) and perhaps forums like these. They do have a Feedback site loacted here: https://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadonline/feedback?step=decd9bdb I'm not trying to discourage you from posting here rather, we encourage it. I just didn't want you to get the wrong impression that your message would be received by a R* employee.

When you get the various types of ammo in your inventory you can switch between them to see what advantages they provide to damage for instance. As for dead eye, I don't use it myself so I'm unsure what benefits if any carry over from the campaign in that respect. I use the high power stuff (forget what it's called) and explosive ammo mostly. .....never used split point except for a mission it had me equip it and anything I get for free. Others use it however and I'm sure for good reason. I'm sure someone will be along to help out in clarifying its benefits.

@noobhunter007, Fyi... You posted this in the campaign Q&A sub forum and as we discussed before, there is an animal spawn mega thread in Online Troubleshooting. I am moving this thread there now.

Yeah, if I don't then I get stuck in full lobbies. I hate playing with randoms in that game so I always play alone or just with friends. Sometimes even with the MTU trick I still get people joining my session. If it stays at around a handful, things are usually cool. ....but when it grows or if I start seeing "X killed by Y", then I bail. Sometimes if I wait folks will start leaving in their own and then I'm all by myself again.

Hi DK and welcome. We have a dedicated Posse Recruitment forum that is more appropriate for your subject so I will move it there now. Again, welcome and feel free to contribute to the discussions and / or create your own.

.....it's better on console or PS4 rather (IMO) because I can change my MTU to force myself into empty "public" sessions.

That's an unofficial map, yeah? Unless this is for PC and there in fact is some way to overpay this info into the in-game map, there is no way I know of to do what you're saying. You have to use such maps on your phone, tablet or computer while you play AFAIK.
