CMcC Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 We’ve all seen this leaked map. It’s old news. But do we know how it measures up to New Austin and Nuevo Paraiso or even San Andreas in terms of size? And any guesses as to why they didn’t include New Austin and Nuevo Paraiso in RDR2? They already built it! Copy and paste that sh*t! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also there have been some confirmations on things like New Bordeaux (name change though) from something in the collector's box, can't remember what, but yeah a lot of people saying it's not fake.

jACKx Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 It could just be a mock-up version of the real map. I can see it being real though given the locations and the size. Maybe we will see a map next for some news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watery buffalo Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 I say it is legit. It matches what we know about the game and most people, like Benjo mentions, seem to believe it is real. Not just general plays or fans but people who know their stuff. So I say the size is accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope this is true too, would be cool to see a remastered New Austin, it also states John never visited New Austin before 1911 whose to say Arthur didn't go? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, in the story trailer, Arthur tells somebody that the law chased them from the west and from the mountains...so i really hope that the western areas that Arthur is talking about is New Austin...perhaps we get to see Tumbleweed before being a ghost town...

Fribbo Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I was thinking about that a few months ago, I was debating with some friends about it and we was discussing about if we will see Tumbleweed before it did get deserted, and we was also trying to find info about a possible date for when the town did get deserted. The wiki for Tumbleweed is the best place to try and find out when the town last had been occupated. http://reddead.wikia.com/wiki/Tumbleweed The only dates to go by are what are marked on the graves at the church in Tumbleweed, the latest date recorded on the grave stones was 1906, 5 years before the events of RDR 1, so there is a possibility of seeing Tumbleweed before it got haunted and deserted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMcC Posted August 30, 2018 Author Share Posted August 30, 2018 (edited) Today Rockstar announced some new RDR2 collectables. Here's one of them. “The train, as featured in the game, runs passengers and freight on the entire network of railways throughout Ambarino, New Hanover, West Elizabeth, Lemoyne and New Austin.” Edited August 30, 2018 by CMcC 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping the whole of the original map has been remastered and is coming back, maybe since New Austin is pretty much confirmed, there's a chance we could see Tumbleweed before it was deserted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind the old map coming back but with some extension further up north so we can get more grass and snow lands. I don't want it to be the entire same. I want some new places to explore ya know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fribbo Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Does everyone think the part of Mexico that was in RDR1 will return? New Austin has been pretty much confirmed.

Urbane Ori Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 I expect that the map will be HUGE as they said it will have almost all the environments you can think of. Also they map of GTA San andreas was one of the biggest maps I have ever seen in a game and they have not ever gone that big in scale. So I am hoping it will come back to have more and more content to discover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redscrew Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Size isn't everything - Said no woman ever. 🤣 Joke aside, it really isn't. I don't want a huge map if it is nothing but dead space. I am hoping we get something similar to GTA V's map size with a bit more "hidden" areas and I will be happy with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't be "dead space" though. You can see that in the trailers, there is a lot of heavily populated terrain with wildlife and different weather patterns.

Benjo Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 For every R$ release there are 4 basic things I look for in the map. I want to be able to: get lost in because it's so big spend a week in one area because its so interesting and densely populated be able to go to another area a week later and have a fairly fresh experience there because it's been a while since I've been there still be discovering new things 6 months from now From what I've heard and read so far I believe R$ have delivered on all 4 points for RDR2. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to be able to have the map still feel fresh after 6 months. Given that I work a full-time job and a part-time season job in the winter months, I won't be playing as much so it shouldn't be too difficult.

dIV4r Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 The map doesn't need to be huge but it has to leave room for exploration. I want there to be enough that even after I complete the story, there is a good chance I didn't see everything and it will be worth my time exploring it more.
