Great random posse

I hadn't done anything with other players, so I decided to check out the "Posse Up" option, and got thrown into a random group. Grabbed my headset and hoped for the best, not expecting much.

I must have gotten lucky, because it turned out to be a great group, all friendly and on-mic. We did some story and stranger missions, got into a few shoot-outs, and swapped war stories for a few hours. Made some new Xbox friends, and had an overall great time. 

Just posting for those who don't have any friends who regularly play, and who don't expect much from randos. Go ahead and jump in... you never know!

I'm far too introverted for that! :)  Knowing my luck I'd get a bunch of screamers and racist trolls. 

Rather just play with the fam and RL friends.  Cowardly, I know - but my time is too precious to risk playing with goonballs.

Totally get that. I'd rather play with RL friends too, but none of my friends are playing RDR. :(

Sometimes it is a real crap-shoot.  I met some interesting people and got into some that made no sense.  Played in one group where I was the only one on a mic and except for when I started missions, they went their separate ways.  Met a couple of random groups where people wouldn't shut up long enough for you point out you was about to be ambushed.  

I like co-op games but it can be a real crisis finding like minded players.  Mostly cause different players have different thoughts on what fun is.

I will admit that I haven't tried it in RDO but IME, most co-op matchmaking is hit and miss.  ......mostly miss.

Having said that, I have met a handful of good gaming friends this way in past games that I still team up with.
