Same, actually only once when they force you to.

If you've upgraded your camp you can call your horse back from wherever it is too

No, plus if you die it will respawn with you.

Has to be exceeding expectations, surely.

Any idea on no. of units?

What stings the most for me is the fact it was delayed by a huge amount so they "could deliver the most polished and perfect game possible". If this is their version of perfect then, jeez.... way off.

I didn't think anything could be worse than the cops in GTA, but getting a bounty for being motionless on your horse is beyond ridiculous.

That exact thing happened to me. The most infuriating part was I tried to ride around him but he jumped backward into me.

If anything ridiculous makes it into online I am never playing it. I hope having the option to have a pink mane on your horse wasn't a warning shot for things to come.

Really hope they dial this back.

I also got mugged by some kids then got a bounty for defending myself.

I have no idea how all this got past QC.

Yeah definitely some gems in there, and the epilogue has some really varied and unusual missions throughout which is a nice change of pace.

Like I've said in another post, I just hate the repetitive "Go to do the thing, thing goes wrong, have to kill 200 men from behind a rock, race back to camp and have to kill another 50 men who are chasing you." Really started to grate on me after the tenth time it happened, and little did I know there were another 47 missions after that which followed the exact same template. The story itself is good but the way they translated that into missions was abysmal.

I also think economy will be a factor - maybe they keep an eye on what people are making in SP and what they are spending so they can factor this into their decisions on costing etc. Let's hope we don't have another ridiculous mess like GTO where a teaspoon would cost $500k.

I blast the story mode in Rockstar games because I'm not a fan of them. My money's worth comes from freeroam. Don't feel sorry for us, kid.

Yeah they aren't always there. Just come back later or do a mission and they might spawn - I guess Rockstar don't want it to be too easy.

Loot lots of people and search every drawer etc. You will find rings and pocket watches and all sorts which you can then sell to a fence. Naturally you will make money as you progress through the story too so you can pay off your bounties as you earn.

Really looking forward to the first major patch since release. Hopefully they will develop some of the gameplay as well as bug fixing moving forward too — despite their failing this is something that was done with Battlefield constantly. They review aspects of the game and update them accordingly — hopefully R$ will do things like sort out the lawmen etc rather than just concentrating on online adversary modes.

I can't disagree with any of these points. The law / bounty is infuriating, I mean, I fast travelled to St. Denis yesterday, and because I was AFK I didn't move for 30 seconds. I then got an instant bounty for loitering and the whole town descended on me and started shooting. I couldn't even make it to the office to pay my bounty without dying. It's a joke really.

You can get on the train when it enters a station and sit down, then switch to cinematic mode. I haven't bought a ticket yet but by the sounds of it it skips to the destination, but f you just climb aboard you should be able to sit and enjoy the ride. Another option is to just ride your horse in cinematic mode.

This is what I meant by my tweet. They sold it as there are these cool interactions that are like the peds have memories or something, but they are really nothing like that. They are as contrived as the first interaction.
