As the title mentions. What are the game choices that you always pick while replaying the game? Knowing there isn't many that come around in the story. Yet, theres a few. For me the level where you save the lady from the cave. Always choose dynamite and just use fire bottles instead. That's if Charles doesn't go off into the blaze of fire at the entrance of the cave like a madman. So, what is one of the options you'll choose every time after finding out how the other option plays out? Plus what are some tactics you've happen to stumble upon and find to be a better experience instead of the two options given?

Didn't care for westerns until getting older. Mainly have a sci-fi taste for films. Family members recommended "Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid" alot. Couldn't watch it after the sun drops keep falling on my head scored played. Eventually will watch the rest of it. Do enjoy watching TV series of westerns "Gunsmoke" and "Bonanza" time to time only because that was my grandfathers favorite tv show.

If you like those b rated monster movies that have giant ants, bugs and monsters. Try out "Earth Defense Force 5" has over 90 missions in story mode with five difficulties and it has great gameplay. Four different classes to choose from ranger to a class with girls with jetpacks. It's what you ask for in a game. Blow everything up to save mother earth from any alien attacks. It's price is a bit much and it's digital only for the fifth version. The version before it should be fairly cheap $20 bucks "Earth Defense Force 4.1" and it has a physical copy. Great game to play with kids on split screen two player hunting down ants and other giant bugs.

You're absolutely right. Yet, everyone is different therefore everyone will have a different experience with the object in question. Many variables have a factor on wear and tear as well. Could be a bad batch from the plastic injection or whether its around a humid area to hands adding too much pressure to the buttons. If it keeps it durability for you and minor group of others that's great. Yet, it won't imply to other folks that happened to become unlucky. Believe nothing you hear and only half of what you see.

Alright, wasn't purposely trying to call out anyone within the forum or accuse anyone of being wrong from personal experience. Deeply apologize if anyone was offended by this statement. Just sharing my own personal experience from opening the controllers up myself in replacing the tiny springs and other components that do fail over time without it being thrown or dropped and figuring out how everything works through the course of the consoles lifetime. Do respect your beliefs on this subject. Probably could've of worded that statement a tad bit more friendly.

The other alternatives that are compatible with the PS4 system are fairly expensive for being a controller. Would recommend using a wired controller just for the latency. Yet, not sure if you play far away from your display or not. A controller called "Horipad FPS Plus" is around the same price as the stock version of a PS4 controller. It has the thumb-sticks layout of a Xbox controller though. Also not sure if that's your taste in a controller layout or not. The PS4 controller aren't very durable as many others claim it to be. In example the L2 and R2 buttons have tiny springs that eventually wear out and become locked in the triggers or interfere while being pressed after heavy use in a short time. Also, be careful with thumb-sticks on it as well. Not sure if you do this but rolling the stick around and around to sort of warm up you thumbs actually makes the thumb-stick lose it's fluid control. For the reason a metal stick itself underneath the thumb-pad is more designed for moving up and down more than actually going around and around. The pieces supporting that metal stick to be able to go left, right and etc are very small plastic parts and are very complex to have it all connected underneath the thumb-pad to become fixed. Best thing to do is if you do that sort of thing is to go up and down on the thumb-stick back and forth to have the controls and aiming to have more precision. Circling it around and around just stresses out the metal pin underneath the thumb-pad. Or you could use a mouse and keyboard adapter if you're more comfortable with that than anything else. Those are even more expensive and you got to go through loops with connecting to the internet for it work on the console. Sorta not worth the hassle you also have to configure the controls and all that jazz.

Haven't really tipped my toes in catching legendary fish yet myself. Yet, if you did happen to catch all of them before activating the side quest. Thinking all that is left to do is find Jeremy Gills and have the games system recognize and activate the event and then it should show up. Could be wrong though just a thought.
-
Cool username bud. Not completely sure. Yet, just looked this up think it might be "A Fisher of Fish" side-quest. Talk to a non playable character at the end of a dock around north-east shoreline of Flat Iron Lake. The character's name is "Jeremy Gill". He'll want you to catch legendary fish. There are thirteen of legendary fish to collect. Edit: or it could be "gang hideouts"

Thank you for your service to the vets above me or who post later on within this thread.

Was thinking the other day that the supersampling mode on the PS4 Pro might be a "Virtual Super Resolution" than a actual Anti-aliasing. Meaning it just shrinks the higher resolutions to fit a screen that doesn't support higher resolutions. Haven't tested this yet. But, maybe using 1080p and having supersampling mode turned on while playing on a 4k display will sharpen everything out and remove that blur and ghosting effects. Sure, the display is gonna say its 1080p but it'll make it look somewhat closer to what 4k detail should look like. If my theory is right which could very well be wrong. It'll still have that broad 4k spacing since it's virtually shrinking a 4k image to fit within 1080p plus the display doing whatever kind of up-scaling in process on top of that. Edit: Just tested it. Forgot that supersampling mode isn't available while being set on 1080p on a 4K display.

Cool, thanks for letting me know about Clemmens point. It is a haunting kind of thing.

The hunting is what makes this game infinite for me. Free aim completely off and off while on the horse without dead-eye really ups the enjoyment of getting a clean scope on a buck on the run for moccasins really made me feel like it was truly earned. Spend just amount of time hunting as much you Nuke. It beats far cry 3's hunting for me. Personally not even a hunter in the real world. Lumper it's funny you mention that. Sort of doing that exact thing right now. In fact just got the legend buck few moments ago. Spent alot of time just hunting around once you get to horseshoe overlook too. Tried out that gold glitch everyone mention on my this playthrough unlocked the fence going back and forth until getting extremely rich. Got done with that went off to find that legendary buck for the trinket early. And as well on finding that perfect flow for the game to have it feel right as the story progresses. Sort of picky with that when it comes to R*'s content. As what mission should be done first and then free roam a bit to make it seem as if a week passed by within the game and all that.

RDRII and Max Payne 3 also GTA V are the only games that once the credits roll. Instantly loading up a new game to literally play everything again. Already on my fourth playthrough its not getting stale at all. Well, beside the lousy levels where you just do something that doesn't end in a shootout. Really used to repeating and doing the same thing over and over thanks to GTA Online. So doing RDRII over and over is sort of a cool video game vacation from GTA Online. Haven't thought about going for 100% yet still want to test and see how everything works from animations to scenery and all that jazz. Sooner or later will do a 100% but right now want to see how everything looks in different times of the day if mission is scripted for daytime or what not. Big props for you bud for going gold 100%. One cool thing about the wildlife just noticed this yesterday. If you watch a bald eagle or any eagle and see it sore through your binoculars you'll see it catch prey and sweep it up. Shot it down to see if you could stow the eagles prey or not and you actually can! Kinda like killing two birds with one stone. Also the eagle sweeped up a 3 star rodent. Kinda cool that animals know their pelts and quality of prey. You're right though this is a great game. Has it flaws from time to time for me personally, but man it's a whole different level game-wise to anything before it.

When you get around to the mission "Visiting hours" you can really take advantage on sharping your free aim skill on this mission. The guards on the top of the fort always respawn in a loop if you don't listen to Sadie and just stay in cover behind the boxes. Really helps on tuning and following how they move their heads and bodies and etc. Just know that its a little tricky as their heads like to be right behind the forts fence and the fence will block your red dot headshot. It's almost resembles the rifle shooting range from GTA V as in a target far left, target in inner middle, target in middle and target on the far right. You can literally do that start of the shootout over and over until you walk across the bridge to John and Sadie and it won't make you fail for not going to Sadie and John. So before you start that mission just save it to another save slot and reload it whenever you need a constructive warm up. Was working on v1.05 if it makes you fail for not following Sadie Rockstar did something to mess that up.

You're not the only one bud. See it as a man's version of a "Lifetime Movie". It'll hit you hard in the chest. No tears. Just some strong stuff that makes you human. When making Arthur head back to that cave was the most badass feeling ever. Gonna finally get this Micah guy once and for all. Then seeing him just lay there was tough. I stopped playing for awhile. the epilogue came up and just couldn't keep playing it. Took a couple weeks for me to be like well there's a little bit more to explore that is left. It may sound a little extreme but when my first playthrough of RDRII and Arthur met the demise. Took off work and said there was a death in the family. Got a couple days off, you would play more of it while having more time and just couldn't do it. Just chilled thought about life itself and how a little ole game changed the meaning of life for me.

Red Dead Redemption 2 Graphics Possibly Downgraded

Ah! then the phantom update is real after all. Was worried about that rumor. That a update between 1.05 or either 1.06 has a phantom update. Which completely removes AO and other things from being activated once un-patched. So only thing to think of now is that was really lucky to not have the PS4 Pro OS not updated or connected to the internet before v1.06 was released. Not lying guys and gals it worked for me. Only would bring it up to help others. Otherwise wouldn't typed anything at all. was v1.05 before downgrading it to v1.00 and the saves loaded up for me. Man that's really messed up now that their doing it that way now. 100% if you were on 1.05 and pushed back on all updates you can revert and be fine. But v1.06 or later you may not get AO to were it used to be after the phantom update. -
The church bells trigger like the spaghetti westerns for me. Last gang member left alive getting shot between the eyes and then a church bell *Ding!* comes out. Not even sure if there was even a church nearby. Either way works great for me. Been thinking with the flashbacks it might have to do with the honor system or how well Arthur treated John if you greeted and antagonized him alot or not. Remember something similar hearing Abigails voice at one time while traveling down a trail from a mountain area once. Sensing there's more mysteries in the game than whats been discovered so far. Heck Rockstar even said way back during the mount chiliad thing. Stating there's still stuff people haven't found in San Andreas that have yet to be surfaced. Then whatever explanation anyone wants to believe in for the GTA V thing. Now having portals, different universes and etc on RDRII. A lot of mystery hunting to get done for three games so far.

There's a lot to learn on vaporizers. Once your mind decides that the vaporizer is better and more convenient than the cigarette. You'll be feeling like a new person hopefully. Just stick with it. When your mind does that strange signal thought of "I need a cigarette" just pause and overlap that thought of a cigarette with a "Got something better than a cigarette" then keep puffing that vaporizer. Trick for me was waking up with no coffee or a cigarette and just puff that portable hooka that with everything costed $300. So the price and only a little bit of willpower helped me notice cigarettes taste terrible and was the reasons for feeling drowsy and tried throughout the day everyday. Not too fond of the "vape shops" either. See blowing vapor like a chimney around everyone in a room is rude in my eyes. You'll cough alot at first. You'll also kinda feel the back of your throat start to clear up and almost feel like its "healing". Just make sure you use a reasonable wattage and temperature. Keep a eagle eye on the batteries. The tips of the battery can easily become chipped and can cause some unwanted sparks once being slotted in the mod itself. Plus hearing nightmares on batteries from cellphones to mods exploding. Just make sure your batteries are in good shape and it probably wouldn't hurt to replace them every year or so. Tried to get my father to use a vaporizer for years now. He's just too stubborn. It's pain though, seeing him cough up everything in the mornings when visiting him. While thinking "Man, all that can be erased if you just stick with the vaporizer". Do know everyone is different which implies everyone's addiction is somewhat different as well. But altering your mind to thinking the vaporizer is the cigarette itself is probably the key to noticing life is alot different without tar or ash and smoke surrounding you.

Red Dead Redemption 2 Graphics Possibly Downgraded

Your save file will be fine. It won't be messed up. Unless you happen to find some unknown glitch that's game breaking. Yet, so far the worst thing to happen is minor texture popin or a small frame dip while traveling through a congested and heavy area. On the other-hand v1.00 has another advantage as well it loads the whole game alot faster than the updated patches. Thinking Xbox owners can't un-patch though not sure about Xbox One S. Do know Xbox One X needs a online loop on every hour or so just to play anything offline or online. The only issue that crossed me was the gold metal for weapons. They say the gold option is from doing the two challenges from GTA Online. Which is added once you link social club and and all that while being connected. It wouldn't show up for me which was a bummer. Yet, it wouldn't show up on my third playthrough save file. So, what fixed it was loading the very first save file ever created, which was the same save file that was linked up to my social club account to unlock the gold metal for weapons in the first place. Tested to see it the store showed it and it appeared on v1.00 without the being connected to the interweb via on the first save file. So once that worked, loaded up the third save file that the gold wasn't appearing after loading the one that had it appear. Sure enough it worked, Had the gold option for a save file that never saw the internet to know theres gold in those gunsmith stores. While remaining offline and un-patched. Wouldn't worry about anything new being added to the single player at all. From what we learn from Rockstar is that if theres a online mode from them. That online mode will get all the attention and single player will be left nothing new. Don't really see single player DLC happening either. In Rockstars eyes the online mode is that extra something that replaced single player expansions. When they did do it that way, there was only two episodes the biker and club expansion for GTA IV. Nothing too crazy. Yet, Sadie needs something though. Really think she should of been a playable character. Yet, who knows. Maybe undead nightmare or something similar will happen for single player or if anything will just be for online and online only until it releases on PC and we can spawn anything through a trainer that was for online only. Also the missing people in camp will be fixed as well once un-patching it. Think it carries over through a save file. Not sure though. TL:DR Everything will work fine. Gold for weapons wont show unless you load the save file that it was activated for it to be unlocked and it will be available for all the other save files. And don't get your hopes up for anything new for singleplayer. They spent six years on it they got everything they want in singleplayer already. The focus is on online. -
Yes, remember it sounding alot like Tilly as well. Not sure what was said either. Also not sure if the honor system is what makes it happen or not. At first Thought it was one of the O'Driscolls setting up camp nearby or something. Was getting battle ready and then Tilly's voice saying something then laughter-party kind of sounds following afterwards. Glad to not be the lone ranger on this one. That's a really strong detail within a game. For the reason was feeling bumed out of all the great times there and remembering my own memories and then a subtle audio hallucination layered on top of that was very different experience. Didn't cry or nothing that serious. Yet, definitely strucked a chord.

Hmm, might of been me then. It happened a month ago. Remember hearing memories while sitting on the horse in the middle of the old camp. Think there was a subtle flash on the screen as well. Went there as soon as the epilogue started. Did not record it for some reason though. Thank you for your input bud.
