....there was a thread about that at one point actually.

Kinda not the point of the OPs thread but I hope you find a satisfactory resolution so you are able to leave this behind you.

Yeah, I've discovered there are quite a few here like me over 50 and others in their 30s & 40s. It's probably why the temperment around here is relatively mellow for the most part.

ok. Just throwing it out there as that has been the issue with some.

....he's old like us so I'm sure he knows.

Wait.... What country are you from? It could very well be that it is restricted due to your local laws. There are several countries that are not able to access the gambling feature in RDO because of this. I don;t have a list of those but that could be the case here.

Something is up then. May be a bug or perhaps something you're doing / not doing? I rarely set up camps myself as I usually join other friends posses.

Setting up camp seems to be a little bugged for some. Also, I can't recall if it's lvl limited or not. Btw, you can cook at most fires that are "open". ...meaning that they don't have lots hanging over them, etc. I do this from time to time after clearing gang hideouts or when I run across them instead of riding back to my camp. Fyi.... In case you were wondering, you can't sleep in RDO because the passage of time remains constant unlike in the SP campaign.

You're still talking about online, right? You don't sleep in RDO like you did in the campaign.

You should also get a treasure map awarded to you at that level so be sure to collect that from the Post Office or I believe you can do that from your lockbox as well at your camp. .....and then you get one every 5th lvl IIRC.

......I might add that R* (from time to time) has provided free money, gold, gifts, etc. simply for logging in to the game for example. They will also bonuses that increase payouts in certain types of activities at times in the weekly updates. I forgot to add in my last post but remember also to check your Award progress in the Progress menu. For those Awards that you complete, there may be an option to reset it which will net you some gold nuggets and XP increase. Don't forget about treasure maps that awarded at level 10 and then every 5th level thereafter. The cash payouts will vary but can be relatively significant at times. The point is, there are tons of other ways to make money by simply playing the game, leveling up, etc. Look into those @JohnDew.

RED BEN CLEMPSON: RUTHLESS TRAIN ROBBER AND MURDERERPLUS NEW FREE AIM SERIES, WEEKLY COLLECTION, CLOTHING AND MORE With Red Dead Redemption 2 now available for PC, all the latest (and forthcoming) updates to Red Dead Online including this week's Legendary Bounty, new Weekly Collection and much more are available across all platforms. Authorities have placed a bounty on the head of one Red Ben Clempson, known for wreaking havoc on local train routes and leader of the notorious Red Ben Gang. Bold and brazen, Clempson fancies himself a bit of a dandy with a taste for fine tailored suits and haberdashery, making him easy for bounty hunters to identify should he choose to strike again. He and his gang were last seen stalking the train tracks in New Austin, looking for their next score. But be forewarned: Clempson is a known sharpshooter and considered armed and dangerous to all who dare approach. Avid Collectors can earn their living this week by tracking down the Blood Flower, Chocolate Daisy and Creek Plum for Madam Nazar, thereby assembling the Herbalist's Collection. Deliver the collection to Madam Nazar directly or mail it via your local Post Office for a handsome sum. Meanwhile, crackshot players looking for a test of skill, reflexes and dexterity can assess theirs in this week's Featured Free-Aim Series, Sport of Kings. The Wheeler, Rawson & Co. Catalogue has plenty on offer this week, including the Cardozo Vest, available for a limited time only. The Dunaway Coat, the Purkiss and Pearrow Hats, Union Cap, Farley Shirt and Tillson Sweater, meanwhile, are all permanent additions. Patrons can also browse new colorways of the Ledbetter Hat, Fuentes Poncho and Killiman Vest, plus new footwear options with the Parson Boots, Rowland Boots, Cerrada Boots and Cibola Boots. The Wheeler, Rawson & Co. Club and The Outlaw Pass on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 come to a close this week, ending on November 18th. Remember, all exclusive Outlaw Pass rewards up to your current Club Rank unlock instantly with the purchase of The Outlaw Pass and everything you unlock before November 18th stays with you permanently. Visit the Progress menu to view your Club Rank. As an added bonus for players on Xbox One and PlayStation 4, Outlaw Pass holders who reach Club Rank 70 by the end of the week will receive an all-white Cardozo Vest, free of charge (in addition to acquiring all the debonair stylings and professional benefits The Outlaw Pass delivers, of course). Collectors will be happy to hear that they can take 25% off the retail price of the Pennington Field Shovel and 50% off all Collector Maps, while also receiving a 25% bonus on RDO$ payouts on all Collector Sets.

Here are some links to threads where the OPs have found solutions that work for them and other discussions sharing possible fixes you can try if you're having troubles:

When posting technical issue and troubleshooting topics, please keep in mind that RDR2.org is a fan site not affiliated with Rockstar Games or TakeTwo. We are simply fans like you of the game. However, we do have a knowledgeable community here with all kinds of backgrounds and experience. Chances are, someone might have the same problem as you and possibly even a solution or helpful advice. Also, we would encourage you to submit a trouble ticket with Rockstar if you are having problems with the game. Even with known issues it's important that people continue to submit their reports with R* as it might help provide them with an idea of what the problem may be and perhaps even expedite a fix. Try to be as descriptive as possible in your feedback. Below is the link to the Rockstar Support site. Responses are typically within 24 hrs during the week IME but I believe they ask to allow 48: https://support.rockstargames.com/categories/115001624507 You can also submit suggestions and various feedback here if you wish, although you will not receive a response. This link is more like a suggestion box of sorts that Rockstar monitors: https://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadonline/feedback If you find a resolution to your problem, please report back what worked for you. You solution may end up helping someone else. ....and please follow the rules. Please don't artificially "bump" or create duplicate threads on the same subject, etc. Everyone's issue is just as important to them as your's is to you. Thank You

All I can suggest is that everyone who has a particular problem should be submitting their own trouble tickets to R* Support and be persistent if you are not getting an answer.

Well, a couple of things..... RDR2.org is not affiliated with R* or Take Two. This is a fan site and there are no representatives from R* that openly interact here. To get the attention of R* Support, you can already do that through opening a trouble ticket via R* Support here: https://support.rockstargames.com/categories/115001624507?redirect_lang=en_us&_ga=2.73562000.387525033.1573566937-1955112014.1545627341 The forum rules were created for a reason. The fact is that it's not fair to the rest of the community members if we allowed people to continually bump threads or post duplicates because they though their issue, topic, idea, suggestions, etc. warranted an exception above others. It also clutters the forums and makes it more difficult for people to navigate, participate in discussions, find threads, etc. Sometimes, reviving old threads is fine as is continuing a discussion which will naturally let topics filter to the top. However, posting "bump" to put your thread on top of everyone else's or creating multiple threads is not. Also, it's not like these threads in question are getting buried on the second or third page. ....so yeah, "rules are rules" but they were created on a whim. They are there for a reason and that reason is with the interest of the site and the community in mind. Thank you.

Please don't "bump" posts. Have you submitted a trouble ticket through R* Support? If not, I suggest you do: https://support.rockstargames.com/categories/115001624507?redirect_lang=en_us&_ga=2.20753272.1588532272.1573543337-1793910812.1573543337

I hope you're reporting these to R* Support.

No prob.

You've got at least one other threads on this topic so I am going to merge the two.

Thanks for reporting back with the fix you that worked for your problem. I'm marking some of these thread titles with "RESOLVED" to hopefully help others in the community too.

I would look to GTAO for any sort of precedent. I know they have something similar but whether that is able to be possible in RDO is yet to be seen.

The camp placement in online is based on session population, where everyone else is camped, the state / region you choose, etc. You're right that R* does not allow players to set up camp in precise points that they want but you can choose the region / area. If you feel something is broken or not working as it is supposed to (like the menu you mentioned), I would suggest opening a ticket with R* Support: https://support.rockstargames.com/categories/115001624507?redirect_lang=en_us&_ga=2.10373878.2106320704.1573495548-1472527368.1573495548 If you believe you have ideas that can make the game better, I would also suggest submitting your feedback directly to R* here: https://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadonline/feedback?step=decd9bdb Actually, posses of 1-4 players are free to create and join at any time. Persistent posses however are the ones that cost $200 but will allow up to 7 players to join together. There are also some other benefits as well. Friends can also rejoin posses without having to be invited as @Freakshow9191 mentioned. I just did it the other night with my friends persistent posse. In either case, it doesn't take much to send out invites in a regular posse. Again, you can still choose the state / region you want the camp in but yeah, you can't choose exact locations likely for balance, mitigating griefing / advantages, etc. I believe part of the reason R* doesn't allow sharing of in-game cash and certain other items between players is to help stem illicit activity like selling such things with real world money, hacking / cheating, etc. You can't exchange money in GTAO either. However, your friends can participate in missions with you and share in the reward / payments. btw, If you're have to play weeks at a time for 5+ hours a day to make $200, you're doing it wrong. I know you're new, but you are now a member of this community. Go ahead and take advantage of that. Read the threads or better yet, create your own and ask the questions you might have about things you don't know or don't understand in the game. There are plenty of people here to help give you answers, direction and advice. You can have one complete carcass of a larger animal like a deer on your horse, yes. .....but you're wrong about birds. You can carry two larger birds or smaller animals, snakes, etc. not just one. You can attach them on either side of your horse. Small birds/animals are stored in your satchel along with feathers, meat, etc. Again, ask around. There are a lot of knowledgeable folks around here who can help you maximize your profits on hunting trips. IMO / IME, the economy is hardly as bad as you are making it out to be. Of course you won't be able to buy everything right away, you need to be realistic about it. That is how the game is played and how the experience is supposed to be. IMO, things are a little too accessible in RDO at times. I'm about lvl 80 and have around $4,000 and 30+ GB IIRC. I really have nothing else I want to buy right now and haven't for a very long time. I have all the weapons I need/want, they are all upgraded and now it's just about horses (if I take that route), clothing and ability cards which I typically don't bother with much now. It's been this way for me for many months in regard to not really having to worry about finances. In the beginning, it's all about leveling up to help unlock certain items, weapons, etc. Along the way while leveling up, you are making money just playing the story missions, side missions, by hunting and doing other activities. IME, if you don't want to grind for money, just concentrate on the missions and other activities that interest you. Believe me, the money will follow. I simply don't pay much attention to what pays the most but just enjoy the game as we play missions and enjoy other activities together. I get that you're having trouble understanding how the game works, but to suggest others here "have no life" simply because they are more successful at it than you is a little silly don't you think? We all have lives but also enjoy games like RDR2 / RDO. This is a fan site and why we are all here. My suggestion would be to take some time and read through the forums. ....ask your own questions. Money seems to be sticking point for you so why don't you ask folks how to you can become more effective at making it in the game. Believe me..... There are folks here that have or make plenty of money to buy the things they need without having to play every day let alone 5+ hours a day. I maybe play 1-2 nights per week with periods where I won't touch the game for a month or so. Set the subjective notions aside and accept that perhaps some of your conceptions or ineffectiveness in the game may be in part due to your lack of understanding of how certain things work or how best to effectively tackle certain tasks / activites to maximize profits, XP, etc. I agree with @Harlock1796 and the others....... It sounds to me like you're not giving the game a chance. Then again, RDO simply may not be the game for you. RDR2 / RDO is very successful but that doesn't mean everyone will like it or understand how to play it effectively. Sounds to me that maybe even you just don't enjoy RDO / RDR2 which is perfectly fine and understandable. .....but you're blaming the game for that and most of your reasons simply aren't that sound IMO / IME which is why we're saying you're not giving it a fair shake. If you decide to stick with the game, make sure to take advantage of the resource here. We have a community of friendly folks willing to help. You might even consider joining a posse that can assist in showing you the ropes, help provide tips, tricks, do missions with, etc. Just visit our Posse Recruitment sub-forum.

Nice. It's a great game and I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

Just make a second account like @DiamondDave mentioned. Its really easy to do on PS4. I do the same on games like DayZ that only allow 1 character per account on each server. I have two accounts I use for that one and can make as many as I like. ....unless this isn't possible in your case as mentioned? I know you can crate more than one in GTA. Personally, I would suggest submitting feedback via R*s Feedback site and request this feature. https://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadonline/feedback?redirect_lang=en_us
