Born Homicidal

I keep saying it and I'll say it again, make PvP free aim only and 90% of the griefing will stop to the point it's not an entire issue anymore. Let people auto aim bots and sh*t but definitely not players. They really messed up in making auto aim the standard for the game, where it is so damn easy to grief. Aim flick up and shoot it's so damn ridiculous. Take it off and as I said 90% of these griefers wouldn't be able to do anything.

Well I had the same thoughts as well, like even the mercy kill option for injured animals isn't online (I hate that it's not), And to be honest seems this game isn't a Beta per say, it's more of an Alpha where its bare minimum and are slowly adding in things and features.

seems great, now go and suggest it to the Rockstar suggestion and feedback page. I personally wouldn't want to pay 10 gold but 5 gold sounds reasonable enough?

wish they either removed it entirely from online, or at least had a way to track your weight to see how much (ex: bars) you are in order to see how much you need to eat or starve also spawning with half of your health and stamina after death is annoying as hell. especially with no hat on..

if they deleted everyones progress with a wipe, they'd lose more money than they did with people not buying gold bars due to the glitch. Players would quit this game instantly. some may argue that its a grind at the moment so deleting people's grind is the worst thing they could possibly do. i wouldnt worry about it.

lol they nerfed hunting entirely. You dont just make animals have a lower spawn rate and then make the most profitable birds (the best way to make money in hunting) only give one feather regardless of quality. Rockstar is on a mission to ruin their game and i honestly am worried as i want this game to turn out amazing. Otherwise when other games come out such as cyberpunk to name one. this game will be history. I find it funny that they try to nerf pricing/hunting etc.. but add no other viable means to making a good amount of money and on top of that there is now a "glitch" that can make you thousands in minutes. GG

we activated one and literally no one came, idk if its because of the Blips or if no one accepted the invite? i didnt even know they sent invites as my friend told me someone activated their hunt the leader option but i had no invites and couldn't even see them on the map at all.

well idk about most of these people, but i know that some people might just be practicing "assassinations" which was a huge thing in the first game when it came to Crew vs Crew immersion (not just your average posse, actual organized crews that engaged in RP to enhance what the game has to offer). If that is in fact what theyre doing then its pretty pointless at the moment considering the game has no actual player interaction considering its a shoot or be shot world or just people full of paranoia staying away from possisble griefers,

lmao we are now in the ERA where gamers think its okay for a game to be crappy at the start and then becoming great after 3-5 years of content. smh i miss the days where developers actually released good complete games..

Yup my crew and I only go for the kill and once its done we are on our way again, no need to needlessly kill them over and over again unless of course they want to keep fighting. After a kill or 2 afterwards we will make our retreat. We also like to find a good standpoint where we defend the target until we survive the time, or they manage to kill them. afterwards we accept either the victory and don't kill them again or we accept defeat and continue on peacefully with our business. What confuses me is the people that keep attacking after the event is over whether or not they got the kill. that part is annoying considering we didn't run and we fought with honor. Now with all that said, we will however chase you down and i guess some would say grief a player/players if they just run away for the entire mission, i find it pathetic and annoying as hell that you made me chase you across the map. It was a mission that was given, just put up a fight or if you don't want to participate then just stand there and let us kill you and get it over with, hell even send us a message asking for a fun boxing match. Lately i have just not even bothered with the weak but nonetheless its entirely annoying that i have to wait (guessing) 12 minutes of my time because you wanted to run away.

yup, also wish they kept it all in Free Roam, hate these "play 3 showdown series" "come first in a gun rush l match" or even these almost impossible PvP ones in Free Roam "kill 3 players from a train" "win a posse feud", "kill 3 players with an Evans Repeater (not even in game)" etc.. there needs to be more that are possible for everyone like, Kill a Bear while on a mount, or fish a 10 lb fish, compelete a gang hideout, shoot the hat off of an enemy, run 2 miles etc..

agree, never happening though unless they add in Free Aim. let me add on to that, also something else to do other than fish,hunt and grind stranger missions.. because lets be honest their PvP modes are trash especially with the auto aim on.

not gonna get into details but yes people need to stop using the word "griefer" so loosely.

I agree, bounty hunters don't even give out any ammo considering they spawn every 2-3 minutes in waves.. there should be like 4-5 stages at least so you can clear your bounty rather than having to go and pay it off (unless you wanted to). As far as hideouts go, i started a hideout so no one would sneak up and take it, i was waiting for my crew to show up since i wasnt spotted and BAM one of our members was being hunted by bounty hunters and the gang hideout disappeared, as all the NPCs ran away in fear. FREE AIM!!!!!!!!!!!!! the only thing they needed to implement to fix 99.9% of griefing!! its so pathetic that people truly enjoy getting killed/killing others over and over again with aiming down sights and flicking the up button for an instant headshot no matter if your going 300 mph on a horse, or running looking away in different directions etc.. showdowns are stupid as hell, also the "challenge modes" where it kicks you out of free roam lol. horrible. However i believe they need to put all the their efforts into free roam, not their lame PvP modes. dont get me wrong rockstar has done some good things and all but damn the negative outweighs the positive imo, i no longer accept mediocre crap from gaming companies that are clearly trying to milk the cash.

that the type of environment my crew and I aim for, we help random people on our journey, just approach them and hang out a bit, help them hunt, escort them on their missions, etc.. we have a strict no griefing policy, where random people shouldn't be harassed or killed until they provoke an attack. These type of scenarios/encounters encourage people to stay, enjoy and play the game which is what we need if we want Rockstar to actually make this game into an amazing experience.

yeah they truly are trying to leech out money and push for gold bar purchases. Its so obvious... They nerfed hunting, prices etc.. added no other means of making money in this update and even nerfed abilities that others have spent tons on (glad i didnt upgrade any because i knew some BS was gonna happen, in their defense though it is a "Beta"), even after not releasing clothing items and a gun they were saying was coming out yesterday lmao an unfinished product/update (aka a "BETA" update) although some features are actually a plus such as the blips, and map proximity where people arent so hostile or paranoid anymore, also there seem to be more NPC's and Wagons etc.. imo, I just hope they add in stealth mechanics where if you are crouched, not moving, out fo sight or even using silent weapons you don' pop up on the radar.

its immersive, he probably plays a role in killing/trolling people but if he didnt take it to the point of harassment where he/she killed you non stop over and over again even when you tried to flee, etc... then by all means dont let it bother you that much and just move on, think of that player as a murfree brood (forgot their name and how to spell it), where they play with their victims. I personally would have killed them and then moved on from there but no need to grief them or be personally angered by it. the responses people have given you here are a bit ridiculous lmao "he killed your horse?!!??!, report him, hunt him down until he leaves the server, these people are small di*k people, blah blah blah" damn this guy created an immersive encounter where he wasn't flat out killed and griefed non-stop some of you need to reconsider what griefing truly means. hell in response to the "i dont kill people's horses ever" i kill people's horses all the time, you want to ride around with your horse during battle? (i play free aim) ill kill the bigger easier target, that way you go down and are completely vulnerable. There are times where even when i want to just get away from people who find pure enjoyment of killing each other over and over again (i find it a bore) i'll rather just headshot your horse and leave you there stranded that way you dont spawn in the direction I'm heading, or i get killed and once again stuck. you'll either have to revive your horse or sit there waiting for a new one to come unless you try to chase on foot where i'll probably be far away by the time you get up off the ground.

Thanks. I appreciate it. As far as the Bear "taming" honestly it's just a random bug where the bear basically glitches out and no longer recognizes you as a hostile/player. The way I've had success in achieving this bug is basically just dodging the hell out of its attacks and either having it stop attacking after a while (glitched) or dying to it and it no longer attacks me. We also gothave a few good shots on a different day where I was swimming with a bear by Hamish's cabin, and would attack everything that got near me, unfortunately the pictures didnt save for some reason.

they need free aim lobbies like yesterday.. the griefing will come to a halt guaranteed at least 80-90% of it. hell keep auto aim for people who don't want to PvP and can auto aim all the NPCs they want but disable it when it comes to other players. bam problem solved

pump shotgun is the best, i have both the repeating shotgun and pump and i regret buying the repeating one. also you could buy the sawed off, but i prefer dual revolvers tbh. semi-shotgun is a troll gun and will be considered as a "scrub" weapon when free aim lobbies come out, if you don't plan on going to those then maybe the semi auto shotgun will be your best friend. but they're pricey and have to be higher in lvl. tldr: PUMP SHOTGUN IS THE BEST ONE.

Lmao. Seems like no one here knows what they want.

More thoughts on this would be appreciated.

As others stated.. Rockstar definitely dropped the ball here.

ahh if only you were on XBOX, wish the best for you in finding what you're looking for. to be honest these forums are pretty dry, mostly due to no one really looking into red dead forums and people waiting for full release and not wanting to play the beta as "its empty"

first horse: no idea the breed, but its a grey male. Swift Spirit 2nd horse: Arabian Chestnut, named her Kali (the goddess of death) 3rd horse: will be a Male Turkoman Dark Bay, either named Batalo (Battle translated in the Esperanto language) or Argo ("first ship to sail the seas" created by Argus and Athena, its a great war ship. any feedback on which you like best is appreciated 4th horse ^ one of the names i didnt use for the 3rd.
