Qu3ster Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Vote and share why. I am going to guess most people will be playing this game with at least one person. I myself will be. One of my buddies plans on getting it with me so we will play through the campaign at the same speed then hop online. Other people have mentioned getting it but aren't big fans of the first one so they may wait for a price drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dIV4r Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Likely go at it solo 90% of the time. I have no issue picking up a game and playing with randoms online. I will mostly run through on my own, even doing missions. I just prefer it that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glopez Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Group. I tend to join up with one buddy who is already in a party. Most nights when I play anything that has multiplayer, it is with at least 3 other people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesie Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 My actual answer will probably (sadly) most likely be "Not at all" so I voted " Solo (Lone wolfing it) ". What happens these days if one attempts to access an online mode on PSN if you have no subscription? I never did have a sub on my PS3 and since I don't have a PS4 I have no idea how this works.

Darko Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I will be lone wolfing it too, only 1-2 of my friends play games and we are no where near dedicated enough to link up and play together! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite interesting to read this, thought I was maybe all alone in preferring solo or just a "tiny" close knit group of friends playing together. Having the option of a co-op style mode could possibly be something rather interesting but I'm not sure the infrastructure will be in place for this with RDR2. The real reason why I mention this though is that I have some friends that are Far Cry fans and with the up and coming Far Cry 5 we're contemplating getting it to have some wicked fun together on PC when it releases. Would be pretty awesome if RDR/RDR2 has some form of co-op modes too to work through the campaign! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquidfire Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I will only play online if someone I know plays. In my experience with GTA V online, it is not worth dealing with trolls trying to play solo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CowBoii Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 If I play it will most definitely be in a group. What is the point of playing a game that is all about gangs and such without being in one yourself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watery buffalo Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Likely by myself. I get that the game is meant to be played in a group like CowBoii mentioned but meh, I don't mind being by myself. Plus my schedule don't line up with any of my friends' schedules to play with em.

Not against it but instead it's just because I'm too cheap to fork out a subscription for a single game that I might occasionally play with others on a console that I don't even own yet. In GTA V I played a few random bits and pieces here and there (some of the races were pretty cool) and took part in a few activities with groups of random people but never ventured into the more involved activities such as heists because my latency just didn't make it very enjoyable (even if I didn't get disconnected and kicked to a new session every few minutes). I once got stuck waiting for over five minutes just between shots in a game of golf and shortly after it came back I got disconnected. I could chat with the fella I was playing with but both of us were stuck waiting for the game to advance. Thinking back now I can't imagine why I didn't have the urge to spend real money on anything related to the online experience... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RON Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 If I do decide to play online, not likely but I will give it a go, I will play with a buddy of mine. I don't like groups, too messy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VICKSUN Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Not sure yet. Depends on how it is mapped out for us. I wouldn't mind either myself. I don't care to run solo or in a group so long as the group I am with doesn't do anything stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D3x Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Group more than anything. I am sure I will play solo or with just one other person as well but it is always fun to play multiplayer servers that allow a good amount of people in a group. Easier to run your own area of the map and not have to worry about people being dbags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forget that I have to pay to play online because I do it once a year. I don't go month to month. I get where you are coming from on that for sure dude. I was like that a few years back when I was in a dry spell with gaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackthestripper Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 I voted solo as well. Typically with RDR I did that, only playing in groups if I happen to meet a person or two in the session that want to clear a hideout or 2. I found a lot when I played in groups, the posse would grow pretty big, and found people arguing over the headsets and then shooting each other because they disagreed about whatever. I would say more accurately if I do play in a group, no more than 4 or 5. I like playing solo because you can just go and do whatever. Plus, more exp points for clearing hideouts on your own.

Yeah I remember this happening too. Fun times. It would just get to a point where it would stale the game and I would stay offline for a few days.

It's all divided among the posse. Call me greedy but I'd rather do it on my own or with 1 or 2 other people and get more exp points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kean_1 Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 The only time I will play online will be with one or two good friends (more if they are online at the same time). It would also be likely to be in a private session (if available) but that will depend on how the multiplayer works out for RDR2. If it's anything like GTAV, I won't want to mix it up with randoms. ....a good portion of which are simply out to grief others IME. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being able to be on a server with just my friend would be great and increase the amount of time I actually spend online. Not sure it will be an option but I am hoping for it.

Not sure it will be an option but I am hoping for it. I had been playing for months with friends (co-op) on GRW and we have a good relationship that is carrying over to other titles. In fact, I convinced them both to pick up GTAV so we can play closed sessions together. One friend never played the title and the other played it on PS3 but never on PS4. I stopped playing PvP for the most part many years ago simply out of frustration in dealing with most randoms. ....so I have stuck with solo and co-op play. I've already started putting the bug in their ear about RDR2 so I'm hoping that if the experience in GTAV keep them entertained, their excitement for RDR2 will grow. GTAV has the option to play online with just friends and NPCs and I can't see any reason RDR2 won;t also include that as well. Not everyone likes the PvP experience in the open mode due to "griefers", etc. (including myself). Edited December 8, 2017 by Kean_1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrylaxx Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Not sure but I know I will be on there. It depends who gets the game and for what console. I have friends who have different ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had more fun in GTA IV playing a LAN game then I did in GTA V, the whole "good rep" thing felt a bit odd for a Grand Theft Auto game - sometimes we just want to cause havoc without repercussions and GTA V felt like it was heavily discouraging this (I may have missed something as I haven't played a lot in it but it just felt "off"). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
