Hey as stated above I have the ultimate edition, checked my email to make sure that’s what I ordered. Downloaded the patch on xbox one. Yet when I load up and go over to the online tab it says comming soon? Any one else having this issue or know what could be causing it ?

Same here. I am just hoping the beta is a bit delayed and I'll be able to get on later.

That's the entire point of releasing it to a small batch of players first. They disappoint a much smaller crowd if something goes wrong.

Hopefully they can get it fixed today. I'll probably stick to offline for a while anyway, but I know online was the entire reason some people got the game.

Rockstar Support Twitter posted about an hour ago "We are aware of an issue affecting Xbox One Ultimate Edition players not being able to access Red Dead Online. Please be patient as we investigate this issue."

It seems there's a small number of PS4 players not able to connect either, but the Xbox issue seems to be affecting all players.

 

I myself have been sitting here for two hours now, unable to connect, just looking for info on why it's not working, seeing streamers not connecting (have been trying to avoid people actually in the game, don't want any spoilers), people without the Ultimate Edition complaining they can't get on, etc.  About to have to leave for work, hoping it'll be working when I get home.

Not a good look for R* to have a total failed launch for online

Yeah it’s kinda ironic that’s it’s basically just an Xbox issue and PlayStation for the most part is Unaffected, kinda feel like Sony paid a bit to give their players an exclusive launch. Cause it’s not like a failed to connect issue lol.

Anyone got an update on this?  I still can't get on.

Nope rockstar hasn’t said a single thing beyond the original tweet to be Patient, kinda bullsh*t to be honest. Defeated the whole purpose for buying the ultimate edition cause I sure as can be didn’t buy it for a horse I still haven’t used and an outfit, so they better work some type of compensation into it cause that extra 40 bucks thus far has been for absolutely nothing.

Didn't they just announce the release schedule recently?

As far as how they were doing it yes but the early access to the online beta was most certainly a selling point when I preordered it back in September and the only reason I got the ultimate.

Ah, I didn't realize it was promoted that way (I never bought the game myself).

Damn, you guys keep getting burned...

His point was that the schedule was only announced recently in regard to the staggered release and the fact that the Ultimate Edition owners would have early access to the beta.  It wasn't part of the original product description.  .....unless I totally missed it.

It wasn't as far as I can tell.  ......again, unless I'm missing something.  

No one knew that they would even have a staggered release until this week.

Servers aren't actually being delivered by Rockstar, but rather by Akamai, a Content Delivery Network (CDN) services provider, and currently there is no way to check on the status of Red Dead Online via the company. 

(Wonder how much Sony payed $$$ this time?!)
 
Tried multiple times posting this on RS official forum's but was unsuccessful each time.
