Jackthestripper Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Besides being at your camp or being in a store in town, is there any way in the settings to just see how much money you have like if you're in the middle of nowhere? I looked around in all the menus,but can't seem to find a way. I'm probably overlooking something but thought maybe somebody would be able to provide some insight on this.

Kean_1 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 (edited) D-pad down should expand the map if it isn't already, show the area, time, temp, amount of funds, etc. Not unlike GTAV if you're familiar with that UI.

Jackthestripper Posted November 7, 2018 Author Share Posted November 7, 2018 Thanks @Kean_1 I am familiar with the GTA interface, and like I said, I knew it was something small that I just hadn't noticed. I'll look for that next time I play. Funny how I notice a lot of little things like the pattern that the butterfly flies around in, but didn't notice something that was staring me in the face LOL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just tap down on the d pad and it shows everything. Holding down gives you minimap options. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kean_1 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Yeah, there are even a lot of somewhat hidden features in some of the controls. I'm still learning new ones as I go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gigemaggs99 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Fun fact, did you know if you equip the pocket watch in your inventory, select it and choose "use" it will then display the pocket watch on the pause menu and the time displayed on the pocket watch is the actual time in the game. I was impressed with this level of detail. You can check it by pressing down on the d-pad to see the in-game time. Then press the pause button and the pocket watch reflects the same time. The little things they think of in this game are amazing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still learning new ones as I go. Me too...I am sure this one is well known, but yesterday I noticed that if you hold the 'options' button for approximately 3 seconds, it takes you straight to the map, rather than hitting options, then selecting 'map.' Probably takes the same amount of time but I guess it's still a little easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just unsure why they haven't made them more accessible through a control list in the menu, etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackthestripper Posted November 7, 2018 Author Share Posted November 7, 2018 Hmmmm....I am pressing down on the D pad and still not able to see my funds. I even tried adjusting the screen size in the PS4 settings. I can change mini map size fine, but still can't see the amount of funds. Weird lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally just figured that out yesterday when I was tinkering with my UI settings to set up a photo of a corpse wall comprised of O'Driscolls. I have to say, playing the game with nothing on the screen (not even a mini map) and using the companion app instead is absolutely something everyone should experience. The immersion is frightening if for no other reason than how gorgeous the game is. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now there's a rule, whoever gets home first and grabs that controller - is playing. And now she's in chapter 4 and I'm in chapter 3 still... my mistake was wanting a wife who likes gaming... So she got addicted to the first one and now she is playing this one. Serves me right I guess LMAO I just hang out in the bedroom when she's playing so there's no spoilers.

She doesn't think she's very good and she thinks she would just get killed all the time. I told her she could play with me, and I would just pick off anyone who shot her... Still a no-go LOL I actually have a second PS4, the one that died a couple weeks ago. I might just buy a new hard drive for it Edited November 9, 2018 by Jackthestripper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I could use the companion app but alas, my devices are a wee bit too old as they don't have the latest version of Android that is required for the app. I don't know why they made it incompatible with previous versions but it is what it is. .....my phone isn't even that old.

I upgraded this past June, and my previous Android was up to snuff, so I keep my old phone as an internet/steaming/app device (loaded with music). I had to manually update the software, but it was worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
