Lost Horse Update:.....
My Dappled Thoroughbred from the Ultimate edition of RDR2 was somehow killed while I was on top of the train chasing Billy Midnight. I had left my horse at the train station and proceeded with the mission when, suddenly, a message popped up, "Your horse has been killed." After a, "Oh gosh! I wish that hadn't happened.", moment, I completed Billy Midnight only to find that my horse was nowhere to be found. No temporary marker, nothing in the stables that I checked...nada. I purchased another horse (don't recall which stable) and proceeded, all the while casting aspersions on Rockstar's cumulative parentage.
Having parted with (yet) more cash for a copy of the Official Guide, a close reading of the last sentence on "Horse Death" (p. 141) reveals: "Note that horses exclusive to the preorder, Special and Ultimate editions are unique in that they respawn at the Valentine stable when they die." Upon return to the Valentine stable, I clicked, "Buy Horses", scrolled to the bottom of the list and, "Voila!", there she was. Unbonded and with no name, of course, but I can live with that. The key point is that reincarnation apparently occurs only at the Valentine stable.
Don't know if it was there before, but my recollection is that I had checked "Buy Horses" in Valentine previously with no results.
So, the jury's still out. Game glitch? Possible. User malfunction? More highly possible. We'll wait and see what happens if she dies again.
Different problem: If I take a stagecoach or train, my horse doesn't follow. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? THANKS!
BTW: Tried to solve the problem by stabling the horse in St. Denis and taking the train to Annesburg, only to find that there's no damned stable in Annesburg!
