I'd quite like a passive mode....to avoid the Griefers and focus on co-op! I agree with a lot of the points here about having more story-like missions but I'd also like the ability to have co-op heists (banks/trains/coaches/etc) Would also like the chance to own and manage property, either a large camp for our posse or even a ranch (what can I say...I'm an expert at shovelling cow $hit) and generally I'd like a bit more customization on characters, horses and weaponry...I always liked the ability to put your own face in games (a la EA gameface)...that'd be great for giving the online characters a bit of identity. Just my 2 cents!

Thanks Guys.....see you out there on the prairie! :-)

You sir (er...Ma'am) are a LEGEND 😂

Yeah, it finished very abruptly....product of network cancellation I guess! I liked the fact that it attempted to portray the west a bit more realistically....a lot of grime, greed and bad hygiene....but it also had some fantastic characters and it seemed to be building up to a action packed conclusion before the studio pulled a Sopranos on us! :-) Always a chance it could get revived though!

Merry Christmas Everyone! Goodwill and Cheer for 2019!

Oh and have you guys seen Deadwood?

Lots of good movies listed here and I can add to those recommending both Young Guns movies as well as, Tombstone, High Plains Drifter, Unforgiven and of course Blazing Saddles. There are a few old school westerns I really like such as: 1) Rio Bravo (or the later El Dorado...basically the same movie) 2) Chisum 3) Red River 4) The sons of Katie Elder 5) Shane and a few lesser known modern ones: 1) Forsaken (really good little Kiefer and Donald Sutherland movie) 2) The Quick and the Dead (ok not the most historically accurate but still fun) 3) Jane Got a Gun 4) In a valley of Violence There’s many more but too many to list!

I have to agree that levelling is really slow online and I guess is the reward for committing to the game which I don't necessarily have a problem with..... BUT....what I do not agree with is the locking down of clothing, items, accessories, etc until you reach a certain level (Unless you buy gold of course)....in my opinion every player should be able to customize their own online character in order to play through the online world...that's part of the fun! If I want to look like Eastwood in his prime then dammit I should be able to right from the off!

oooft....tricky one! Too many to pick just 3 but certainly I've lost many hours on the following: 1) Witcher 3 2) RDR +RDR2 (based on recent weeks) 3) Operation Flashpoint (Original) (Still have fond memories of some old classics.....Street Fighter 2 on SNES, Mario on NES, Asteroids on (ahem) AT2600 😉

Had a dog....was a beagle.....was quite fast!

Hey all, New joiner to the forums....been gaming for many a year but been mainly focusing on offline between RDR games. Now getting back into a bit of online roaming and pvp on RDR2. Couple of things about me.... I never shoot other players (first)...but I may wave or nod! (Please don't get itchy on the trigger if you see me approach to say 'Howdy') I am occasionally useless on a horse so apologies in advance for the many times I may crash into you on co-op missions should we undertake one...it's obviously the fault of the horse! I'm not a glory hound or showboater....I'm a steady gun so if you want a Doc Holiday to your Wyatt Earp, a Doc Scurlock to your Billy the Kid, a Tucker to your Dale, a Garth to your Wayne.....then I'm your man! Always happy to Posse up and do some Co-Op or stranger missions. I'm probably on the more senior side of gamers (first machine was an Atari 2600) so I tend to enjoy my gaming with a nice glass of oak aged red in the evening or a nice home brewed coffee in the AM. Unfortunately this style of gaming plays havoc with the ol 'bladder so if you see my (much younger looking) character standing about looking confused....it's probably because I'm off draining the dragon.....so don't shoot me! I never cheat, use bad language or rage quit....frankly because I don't know how to cheat, I have a 5 month old baby (my own by the way just in case you lot suddenly think...'Child Snatcher') generally sitting on my lap, and I don't know how to switch off my PS4 in a snappy spontaneous manner! I actually remember watching classic westerns when they first came out.....and I play like it so you may see me sitting on my horse looking whimsically over the valley just like John Wayne in Chisum.....you may also hear the dulcet tones of Willie Nelson coming over your headset when I approach (nothing like a bit of mood music) As points 1-6 have hopefully demonstrated, I don't take too much seriously in life...especially gaming so I'm looking forward to spending some time chatting and playing online with you all. Oh and I'm Scottish.....not exactly traditional cowboy material.....but I do wear the boots! Cheers SpeedyBeagle (named after my old dog who in true western fashion is long gone)

I've seen this a few times in online pvp....thought it was a re-spawn feature at first before I realized it didn't seem to happen for me. Surely Rockstar has to look at banning players who are using this exploit?

Hey Guys, new poster here but been playing RDR2 both Story and Online for a while. Came across this thread and felt compelled to comment as I agree wholeheartedly with the majority of folks indicating their annoyance at "Griefing" within the online portion of the game. Without giving away my age I have been gaming online for around 15-20 years in some form or another and I've never seen such a raft of "Gamers" who are intent on causing misery for the majority of online players. I'd hoped that given RDR2 is not your typical run 'n' gun shooter that we might get fewer trolls/griefers in game and have more of a strategic, co-op, live and let live style experience but it seems like even the Old West ain't safe from over privileged 12 year olds with guns! Anyway, hopefully I'll see some of you guys online.....promise I won't shoot you while you're at the General Store 😉
