Re: Red Dead Redemption

for anyone who's done all of Seth's missions and is at least a level 4 treasure hunter

Spoiler

How ironic that the house where Seth found his "treasure" actually had gold in the basement

Spoiler

Yeah I noticed that also. I found the treasure before I did the mission so when the mission came up I thought oh **** I took Seth's treasure lol. I love the character's in this game, the dialogue is hilarious.

Nope, no argument here. This game is unbelievable.

Stranger Quest "Flowers For a Lady"

WTF...I did not suspect anything weird at all until it only showed the back of the woman's head at first. Then I was like, "Something is going on here." How John was acting about the situation was great.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

This treasure hunting this is impossible. I thought a map would show me the area, but instead it's just a map of a tree and some rocks; like I'm supposed to run around the massive land and find them by eye... I tried going to hangman's rock because of the noose on the map, and while that tree and rock looked similar, I couldn't find any rocks around the area that looked like where the treasure was.

Hint: The treasure is near Hangman's Rock. Just search the rock carefully it is there.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

Not as similar as one would think. Really it's the HUD/interface that's most similar, the missions are a ton of fun(I felt like some missions in GTA were chores and I had little fun doing them) there's a lot to do. MP is a blast when playing with friends.

It kind of has a Fallout feel to it, I'm not sure why it just reminds me of Fallout 3 for some reason. But it's also very unique and unlike anything I've ever played. I HIGHLY recommend picking this up.

I feel like its kind of a GTA/Fallout hybrid, with a splash of World of Warcraft elements in it (the challenges, collecting flowers and such).

Re: Red Dead Redemption

It feels a lot like GTA IV to me; just with a crap load of upgrades both to the engine and to the thought put into the world and missions.

This game is what Super Mario World should have been.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

Do the rewards from treasure hunting serve any purpose? Because I am Treasure Hunter Rank 5 or 6 and I have

Spoiler

4 Bars of Gold

and have no idea what to do with them. If they have no purpose, I might as well sll them and get all my money back. I had $1,000+ but bought a horse, just got it all back and spent it on medicine, bandolier, ammo, maps, etc.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

I'm in Mexico now and I'm glad i have the option to set up a campsite when I have to go all the way across the map. Plus I get a refill on ammo. I use my waypoint as the destination I want to travel to. I prefer the campsite method for fast travel rather than paying a stage coach 34$.

I bout a 750$ horse in Armidillo and it really wasn't worth it. It did help me win a race I had previously lost though.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

My game must be glitched right now. i rode a stage coach from Mexico to Armadillo for $0, then to Thieves Landing from Armadillo for $0 and then from Thieves Landing back to Armadillo for$0. I'm happy though, I did just spend all my money.
