Campsite selection

[Major Dammidge]

This is a pain in the ear hole. It seems I spend most of my online time riding and riding and riding to get to a post office, store or butcher. I missed the trapper in the middle of the woods and at other locations. Then I get notices that the freeloader that hangs out at my camp has moved my campsite, and when I visit a neutral campsite I can't get into the lock box to replenish my ammo / supplies.

Yes we are all having issues with Cripps and the camp site. At the moment the camp site is dead weight. Waste of time and money. Cripps needs to go.

Here's the Crux: I was in the free roam mode and saw that my camp was all the way over by St. Denis. So I thought I would do the smart thing. I changed from free roam to the Lemoyne Roam. Expanded the map to see where my camp was and it was west of tumbleweed. You just can't win.

No we cannot win. This game offering for online is broken.  RS will argue that the game is still a beta. Then lets hope they fix this, personally I want to see a major change to how the camp works.

I have experienced the same type of issue. I have found that by going to the player option screen and setting up the camp through this menu actually builds the camp in the area that was chosen. I will not guarantee that this will work every time, but I have had luck using this method so far.

 @The Coca-Cola Kid as WehTuFat, I paid $200 for a large camp for The Grey Hares Gang , and it was established in the area I selected. The next session, my camp was on the opposite end of the map. So as a  large camp purchaser, it's $5 to move the doggone thing (almost every session,). It's like buying a trailer home and somebody moving the trailer when you feel like going home and it's not there!

That sucks! Especially the $5!

I spent a good 3 hours trying to figure this out and how to get my camp where I wanted and nothing seems to work as intended.

Maybe even the ability to buy Farmsteads, cottages, wagons, trade livestock and better prices for selling owned/looted jewellery etc in the future. Fingers crossed.
