I think buying collector maps is a bad investment
lumper replied to parkenman's topic in Red Dead Online
The maps cost less than $20 you get items that most are worth over 9$ each some are more and you get 6 to 15 in a set, 3 for each map, so you do make a profit and if you collect the whole set even better, thing is after you do some, you can remember those and go back after you sell the set to get them again and build another set. I think the maps are important for the sacred collection stuff that are time sensitive and other things like daily challenges, like yeah you can stumble upon lots of stuff, but when you need 2 in this collection, 3 in another, 1 in that one, etc.. I find it best to just buy the maps, finish the set then sell it. -
On day 1 I did I was out doing some collecting and all of a sudden, I got a warning, your camp is about to be raided, I had an option to press x to go there, mind you I was in Rhodes, my camp was in Rio Bravo, it teleported me to my camp where my dog was barking and warning me, I was able to get there, and prevent it, I thought that was pretty neat the way they did it.

Well, someone posted a pic of their rifle and it has a green skin, unlike anything available and when I saw that there was the thought that maybe there is a texture or skin glitch causing it, OR maybe they are getting ready for some kind of Halloween things and the colors are leaking a little or something.

Aliens and cowboys was a cool movie and with 2 found UFO's on game I wouldnt put it past R* to eventually do something with that too.

You guys are too quick for me, by the time I realized what was happening, that thing was way to far away I ran after it, not once, two different times, LOL and I was still like, wait, what?. oh sh$t lol yeah im ready for a third time. I have saved a kidnapped lady a few times and a guy who is held at a cmapfire tied up and a St Denis policemen also, tied up at a campsite surrounded by 5 or 6 nps ready to kill him. Today I found my first treasure map pinned to a tree with a knife while I was hunting, that was cool. I have 3 maps in my inventory and I went and found another 3, they are dropping like crazy. and James, the 25% xp bonus means if you grind out that membership and one or two of the roles you will rank up really fast, I went from 183 or so when this update dropped to 196 in a week and I need 10 k to level up or more.

I found this outside of Armadillo and figured it was a plant for the upcoming un-dead stuff, Im not really sure, but it looks out fo place and has the mask.

Me too, I plan to buy this horse (The Breton)when I get to level 20 in the Bounty hunter, I am told it has an even better temperament than the Kladruber and so I want to see it for myself, I am not 100% on the size, I like a taller horse, I bought the fastest horse in the game the new ciollio or whatever it is the Collector horse when you reach level 20, its a fast horse and all but its small and I just dont love it. I suppose if I were to race thats the horse I am going to pull out from the stable, but otherwise I dont use it.
-
And I like a tall horse and the color of the dapple is amazing, so add it all up, damn good horse to get.
-
I see ok, well .5 would be better than the .20 I am getting now, I did 11, 10, 10, 12, 12, 14, 10, 11, 12, 12, I should have around 55 or so bars from the days Ive done since the update, instead I have gotten closer to 20 bars for my efforts. The xp is pouring in but not the gold. I went from 183 to 193 in less than a week since the update, its been crazy how fast I am leveling up, I just wish the gold would get back to an amount that really adds up with ddaily activity.

I also just realized that the Level 20 Kladruber when bonded to level 4 has 100% health and 100% stamina! This is the only horse in the game with 100% health and stamina, there is an Arabian that has 99, but none higher, until now. So in summary, the two high end Kladrubers are amazing, it is the only horse to have more acceleration than speed, and to have 100 health and 100 stamina, they have a great temperament and when you use a Nocodolches saddle they are very similar to the Missouri Fox Trotters, the drain is very slow, you can literally run top speed all over the map and not worry about your horse. They are the larger of the new horses and larger than the Trotters, and the one dapple coat is an amazing blueish color that I just love. Sorry to keep adding things, I didnt realize at first how amazing the horse was, it was just my new favorite based on early performance and looks, but then I bonded with him and used him for everything in the game that I do and then after all that I decided to look at stats and numbers. The horse is better than I first implied, and if you havent tried one, you can do a lot worse than a level 20 Trader Kladruber. You get most of the speed of the trotters with better temperament and similar drain and it is the only horse in the game with 100 health and stamina so thats pretty cool too. If you love the trotters but hate how they buck at the first sign of trouble, this is your new horse.

Could this be a starting point for Undead nightmare DLC within rdr2?
lumper replied to lumper's topic in Red Dead Online
Im kind of surprised that nobody has commented on this. I never played undead nightmare or finished rdr but this looks like something to me. It serves no purpose other than to show you the mask, I wonder what it will be for. I kind of thought others would have seen this by now, but I havent sen any videos on it or anything. -
Ive had the shovel each time and never found a dig spot. Since I posted this I am now at level 4 bounty, this one moves slowly compared to the other two. It takes me a couple hours to get the 14 dailys done, then I work on bounties, at the same time I feed Cripps and while I am out I collect so I am doing them at the same time even though I have been at level 20 on the collector and trader since the 4th day of the update and I am pushing through the bounty hunter. I did the sacred collection on day 1 and 2, now I am working on this weeks special collector weekly challenge, while doing everything else. One nice side effect of this content is I have been in towns around tons of blue dots, even some bright reds, and had only two issues. The first day a guy set a trap then climbed a cliff and was shooting at me as I made my way up the hill, then yesterday just outside of St Denis two players stopped to watch me struggle to find a birds next, I coudl se the bubbles but not the nest, it was glitched as it appeared when I came back, anyway they watched me for a few minutes then shot at me a few times but didnt run off or finish me, but every few minutes they woudl fire a handful of shots at me, I had my mic so I encouraged them to leave me alone, once they refused to listen I used a dyna arrow and killed both of them and their horses, grabbed my birds nest and left, lol. But far and wide much fewer negative interactions and you can be around tens of dots and not get griefed, I really like that.

Well Im glad to heart this, after all you were a strong proponent for me to keep going when I was ready to quit back at level 38. I hit level 196 today lol, so thanks for that. Im glad you decided to look at it. The dynamic events are amazing. I found one outside of Strawberry the other day, a lady was digging in a road side graveyard and asked me to help, all of a sudden a ton of yellow circles popped up and I had to dig each one til we found something, problem is, I had just accidentally hit a guy on the road with my horse and he reported me for something or other, so the law showed up, I had a shootout and the lady ran off, I never got to finish the event or find out what we were digging for. That one really seemed like a fun change of pace. I have also seen a lady screaming from a wagon, a horseback, one was being attacked by 3 cougars, another was a run away wagon that you have to stop if you can, I didnt make it and it went over a cliff killing the occupant, then the lady yelled at me for failing, lol. Way more than I can remember right now, but the most amazing part of the game for me lately are the unexpected dynamic events that just pop up, every day I find something new. Absolutely loving the update minus the bigs, I am sure they will sort out the bugs in time so I dont let them bother me.

I was able to put 5 large carcasses in mine today plus I added a few condors and rabbits too, and an iguana. I think you have to allow access in the players menu first.

So, like any pamphlet, just open it, click x on xbox or the equivalent on ps4 to "read" it and thats it, you now automatically can do whatever the pamphlet was for. In this case you will be able to hold 20 of items instead of ten. This is the case with the other similar pamphlets for satchel upgrades as well. I had asked R* about this months ago about the idea of offering a tier 1 tier 2 and tier 3 satchel and bandoleer so we can carry 10, 20 or 30 items in the appropriate satchel/bandoleer, when I saw these pamphlets I thought, hmm ok, well this is a start and better than carrying 10 so Ill take it. I keep for example 10 big game meat and 10 animal fat and 10 feathers in stock always, plus 10 of each plain big game, 10 oregano, and 10 mint big game then all exploding ammo full and same with feathers for Dyna arrows, so I stock up, then keep 10 of each on hand for when I use them, I can quickly re-craft more, But now with 20 I was able to re stock everything I mentioned with twice as many as previously, I really like this change.

So, my streak is currently at 95 days. BUT I am getting .20 payouts instead of what I was getting 1 gold bar per. I did notice the other day I got paid .5 for some, so I am just confused. I wrote to Rockstar to report this because for them to show a certain number of people playing the game everyday they offered us an incentive for doing consecutive daily challenges, I spent over 255 gold bars on this update with the idea that Ill just earn it back rapidly, but now I am getting 5x less gold than I was. Rockstar got back to me and said they are aware and here have 5 gold bars!! I was rather insulted at the gesture, I mean Sunday I did 14 daily challenges, I would normally expect 14 gold bars for that instead I got 3.5, they owe me 10.5 gold bars from just Sunday, I estimate they owe me upwards of 60 bars of gold and counting. So I wrote them back and told them that, I havent heard back yet. But I went through a lot of trouble some days to make sure I got my daily's done so I wouldnt reset the streak, and they offered us a bonus for doing that so meh, I want my gold. I had 31 days, missed a Saturday then started over, now I am at 95 days and counting, but the payouts since the update have been a fraction of what was promised. Anyway I have heard from lots of people with this issue, some have gotten all the gold replaced while others have gotten a token amount back, so if you are having the issue, I urge you to report it.

So today we had a daily challenge of bring Cripps 6 large carcasses. I grabbed a Pronghorn to see if that qualified as a "large" carcass and it did, so I needed 5 more. So I took the hunting wagon out and grabbed 5 more Pronghorn and brought them back to camp, I unloaded them with Cripps and then I checked my daily challenges, none counted!! I had to go out on my horse and get 5 more one at a time to get the challenge done. I reported the issue to Rockstar with a bug report, but I wondered if anyone else found this to be the case for them? Two other things I noticed, it seems like the field of view especially when riding is less than it was and our guns need cleaning more frequently than ever before, these last two arent bugs just changes that I noticed since the update, anyone else notice these changes?

This is the biggest selling point to me, if the horse has nearly the same speed and acceleration as the Missouri Fox Trotter and the temperament of the Turk and then some it is perfect for most anything you want to do in game. I do have a few other horses that I bought only for how they look, I like to use them with certain outfits, but for battles, and jobs/missions, it is the Kladruber all day for now on, until I try the level 20 bounty horse, I have a feeling that one will take over for ultimate temperament but til then, my dapple Kladruber is the best looking horse I have IMO and does it all well. I do have two Trotters, a Turk, two lesser Kladrubers, the Black and White, and the collector horse I forget its name, but the real fast one, plus the two level 20 Kladrubers, I have one spot left without selling any horses, and I plan to try the level 20 bounty horse. Im not sure if I will let any go, so many people use the Trotters that although they are great horses I might let one of them go if I need room, same with the turk, it is a good horse, but when you have a stable of great horses, it is hard to justify a normal looking average horse.

Thanks Dragon

Last word from me on the Kladruber. So I hit level 4 on both of them, then I added the Nogol...saddle, with this saddle the drain rate is nearly the same as the Trotter, I mean if it isnt the same it is so close you cant notice it or at least I didnt . With that, I really do love this horse. I loved it when I thought it was a slightly distant second in drain rates and speed but now I am 100% sold on it and because it has a superior temperament to the Trotter. I havent tried the Bounty horse yet and I hear they have an even better temperament so I am excited to try one when I hit level 20 on Bounty hunter, but until then, for looks, and specs, the Kladruber is my favorite horse so far.

SO, where exactly are these? these are the ones I Cant find. Thanks

Ok great. I love that we have so many options with horses and so many ways of using them. I like to be on horseback when I fight if possible, and right now I am using a couple ability cards in that direction so the horse has to have good speed, great bravery and be able to take a beating and not go down easily. I have so many horses but each one has a specific thing about it I really like and cant bring myself to sell or discard, even though I have discarded horses in the past to make room.

Thanks very much!! Lump

UPDATE: Figures 5 minutes after I gave up and posted this I figured it out. In case anyone wanted to know you have to be off the wagon, press left on D pad on xbox, and then select Stables, then vehicles, then X for dismiss. Im not sure what it is on Ps4 So, I took it out and did some hunting, then I got back and there was a campsite ambush going on that I wanted to go defend, but it said you have to dismiss the wagon before you can call your horse and I looked and looked and I dont see where you do that. Also, the emotes you are given from the club membership, where do you get those? There arent in the catalog and I cant seem to find any of those either. Someone had made a video showing them and I thought, oh cool, I want to go look at those but I cant find them. Thanks Lump

I too bought a Criollo, he is fast, but a little small for my taste. I really like the look of the bounty horse, I forget the name, the level 20 one looks amazing and has a great attitude like the Kladruber. I am planning on buying one more horse then my stable will be full, Ill wait til I hit level 20 on Bounty hunter and grab that one and call it a day, I have a loot of horses.
