Bug - horse gone. Not dead. Just gone.

So I bought an American Standard. Called her "Bessie" :-) We did lots of miles and missions together.

I put PS4 in rest mode.

Fired the game up today, and now I've got a donkey old Tennessee Walker.

Bessie did not die. She's just gone.

Anybody else experienced this bug? I don't want to have to keep buying horses because they disappear.

yep, couple posts here about it.  You need to save them in the stable.  then if they die, glitch, etc. they'll return to the stable you saved them in.  To save just stable them.

Had that happen to my Legendary horse i tamed.  I had to go back and restore a previous save to get her back as i didn't save her in the stable first.  After restore and saving her in the stable, i lost her waking up from camp last night, but she was back in the stable when i went looking.  You buy them back for $0.00

I lost a horse because I didn't do the stable save myself. It sucks the way this is set up imo but I guess they want you to work for what you get and keep in the game to make it more "real". I don't know. I was salty as hell when I found out. lol

I preordered the Ultimate Edition, which gave me two bonus DLC horses. An Ardennes War Horse and a Dabble Black thoroughbred race horse. 50+ hours into the game, these horses have become an integral part of my experience. I customized my wardrobe and tack to match their coats. But I go to play last night, and BOTH of these horse have been replaced by a bag of bones Tennessee Walker.

The one that I was riding (War Horse) when i saved, AND the one that was in the stable (race horse) have BOTH been replaced by the TW horse. The TW horse now occupies both of my previous horses names, custom tack and stable spots. 

The special DLC horses are not available at Valentine stable to repurchase for $0 (with no name and 0 bonding), as some have reported. I could totally live with that, if it were the case. My war horse was hitched to a post beside the Rhodes saloon. I slept in hotel room till morning, and made a hard save before quitting the game. Reload last night to the TW horse. Plus the one that was stabled is a TW now as well. 

Also, this soul crushing glitch persists across ALL, of my previous hard saves. I basically paid $40 extra for these horses, came to really love playing with them over 50 hours, then had them taken away from me, inexplicably. I feel like I’ve been robbed. 

In 30+ years of gaming, this is the most outrageous glitch I’ve ever encountered.

Then you haven't gamed much ;)  i'd contact Rockstar on that one. Probably won't help much but you never know.  Clearing cache maybe help too.

At one point my horse after 20 levels just disappeared.  Had did a mission where another hopped on her and rode her in and got her killed.  All I got after that was the stupid nag.  Go to the stable and she was there, but it would let me use her.  No signs that she was hurt and nothing for me to heal.  Read online that players was learning the only way to fix this bug was to delete and restart.   I know Rockstar has stated they was going to fix this, but apparently they are more concerned with adding PvP crap, then fixing issues that seem to affect the players.  So far so good with the new horse, but the griefing be at low level really sucks.

Did you submit a trouble ticket through Rockstar Support?

Back then, I did and was told they knew about it and was looking into it.  Then I read later that starting over would fix it.  To my knowledge Rockstar has did nothing to fix the issue.  They seemed to have their hands full of other issues.

Ubisoft needs to rename their company. I can't think of anything creative but holy hell do they have glitches in their games. Some are worse than others.

all games have glitches.  Ubisoft is one of the biggest names, so they get targeted more, but they're no worse than any other.

Unity was legit the first time I ever heard a major publication use the word "horrific" in reference to any glitch, though.

The same thing happened to me. My favorite and fastest horse, a Nakota, which I had from early in the game is gone. I was doing the Mr. Black and Mr. White mission in Rhodes and had to get one of the posters from an NPC on horseback. I shot the guy and I became wanted. I mistakenly jumped on the NPC's horse instead of mine and ran off. After I escaped, my main horse was no longer on the map and nowhere to be found either at the stable or the hitching post. My guess it that my horse somehow got killed in the meele and never revived. It sucks for sure. Feels like a friend died.
