Re: Red Dead Redemption

Can you just start doing the animal missions during SP whenever you want to start killing them or do you have to get so far in sp before it's a mission?

Re: Red Dead Redemption

Just went out and bought it and preordered UFC 2010. Installing it in place of GTA IV right now. If it's as good as it sounds, I may not finish GTA IV this year with this and UFC 2010 being out.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

Does anybody actually use that warp to location thing in the camping menu? I feel like you're missing out on 3/4 of what makes this game so great if you are. Just go the map, set a waypoint, and go. So much better.

I don't even know how to do it. Occasionally I'll use the stagecoach to get somewhere if I need to, but I would hate missing out on all the randomness of the wild by just warping all over.

BTW, Doing the gang missions in free roam online is just...wow, so much fun. I'd love to do them all with a full posse.

I had thought about it at first,but then thought...half the fun is getting there,and the thought of missing something along the way kinda bothered me

I haven't used it and don't plan on it. There's so much to see and who knows what you will miss. It takes me a while to get to my next destination just because I end up stopping and taking in the incredible visuals of this game.

I'm getting UFC too, but it may not see anytime in my Xbox, RDR will dominate.

JOURNAL/CHALLENGEs is where some of the hunting stuff is located. I wouldnt really call them missions. Unless im not far enough in the game.

I found another wolf sanctuary. between P. ORGULLO and GAPTOOTH BREACH... on the US side of the river... Right along the railroad tracks.. between the tracks and river and alittle north of the racks.. prime hunting ground

Something ironic about a dude with a Lobo in his avatar slaughtering wolves left and right.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

You know this game really reminds me of, odd comparison here, Oblivion. I haven't gotten the true feeling of freedom in a game since Oblivion which is such an old game, its surprising no other game has managed to facilitate that until now since it's been so long since Oblivion has come out.

Re: Red Dead Redemption

Am I the only one who keeps looking for a "man in black" running across the desert? Also do you find yourself scanning the horizon for a "Dark Tower", or hoping to hear "Hey Jude" playing in one of the saloons that you walk into?

Yeah...I'm a Gunslinger!!!!!

Oh yeah, watch out for the lobstrosities near the water!

This game is just too sick...i'm at work right now just trying to figure out exactly what am I gonna do tonite when I play...pure VGC as already stated!!!!

Man, that would make an absolutely awesome game!

I'm still looking for my Morgan Freeman sidekick!

Re: Red Dead Redemption

Multiplayer seems to be pretty barren.. I have only saw about 5 people in 4 or so free roam games and the game can never find other players for matches. Free roam seems like it would be pretty cool but you can just grind the gang hideouts for tons of exp.

Like that for anyone else?

The SP is pretty great so far. I was kinda worried that there would be tons of language but it seems pretty tame so far. That may change though.

I have only explored around the ranch and armadillo so far.. Failed some quests.. one being having to save a man being hanged but he ended up dead because I couldnt shoot the rope fast enough after taking a few guys there and the other being a man being killed by coyotes.

Anyone think putting a sepia filter over the game sounds like it'd look even more awesome?
