Re: Red Dead Redemption 2

I've earned around 4, but spent 1 to buy a lake lure.

Re: Red Dead Redemption 2

I don’t think it’s the gold bars that are the issue. Obviously they could buff them though. The store prices are more of an issue imo but maybe that can take care of itself if they add a ton of coop content that pays well.

My crew still hasn’t played since we finished the story missions because there doesn’t seem to really be a point. PvP doesn’t really interest me in red dead or gta since it’s all auto aim. Looking forward to some content updates bringing us back though.

Re: Red Dead Redemption 2

Really wish I could drop some weapons out of my saddles weapon wheel. Having to hold onto everything for eternity is so stupid. Don't know how I ended up with two double action revolvers. Oh, and that rare rolling block rifle that's the same stats as my normal one. So irritating.

I agree, weapon management is definitely not a strong suit of this game. I'd at least like a way to create a custom loadout, kind of like how you can create custom outfits. Then I'd be able to quickly access the guns I use most without flipping through 8 different options.

Re: Red Dead Redemption 2

I accidentally picked up an old crappy carbine repeater early on in my first playthrough. It drove me crazy having to cycle past it every time I needed to select a weapon.

Have they announced yet if they're going to patch the sporadic issue with weapons disarming/emptying from your wheel when you're on a horse? That was probably my biggest complaint during my first playthrough; starting a mission where you suddenly only have a revolver because for some stupid reason the game disarmed the two shoulder weapons that you've had armed in your wheel the last 30 minutes.

I think that was by design. Other games have done this as well, when they want you to do a mission using a specific kind of weapon.

I don't believe so since if you die mid-mission when you respawn you have your two shoulder weapons again. Plus, I've had it happen on some of the most intense/action-packed missions where there's no way Rockstar would want you to proceed with only two revolvers.

Funny story...

Spoiler

The mission where you break Micah out of prison in Strawberry is the mission where he rewards you with your second holster so you can dual wield. I went into this mission with one revolver and no shoulder weapons due to this glitch (if you want to call it that).

If you recall, after you break the prison wall and free Micah, you hand him a gun. So in this situation--you guessed it--I give Micah my lone gun and we're pinned in the corner surrounded by lawmen and the only weapon I have is my knife. I eventually walked out into a hail of gunfire and let the lawmen kill me. I respawned and had my shotgun and repeater.

Re: Red Dead Redemption 2

That is weird....I ended up with another revolver during that.

I think the payouts of missions is the biggest issue, not the prices. I'm level 20 and have 3 gold bars, used 1 to buy a lure, I have a bolt action rifle, varmint rifle, and still have I think $400 or $500 bucks lying around. If the missions, especially stranger missions, paid more than $3-6 I'd probably have 3 or 4 more guns and have the same amount of cash lying around. The more I've played the more I think the prices are fine, the payouts are the problem.

The story missions paid out pretty well the first time you did them. They become useless after that though. I agree on the stranger missions. They didn’t seem worth it at all.

Re: Red Dead Redemption 2

The story missions were up to $200 weren't they? I agree they paid well, there's only a handful of them at the moment, though.



If stranger missions worked and paid out more in the range of $25+ then I think that would balance things out a lot by itself.

Re: Red Dead Redemption 2

I forgot to mention I have the bow as well. I also somehow mistakenly bought $26 worth of repeater ammunition that I still haven't used up.

Re: Red Dead Redemption 2

They really need to fix these online stranger missions. I had 3 more glitch on me yesterday.

Re: Red Dead Redemption 2

Are there any that consistently work?


Not Aiden, but the other station worker, Angus?, has never worked for me once.



The stuttering guy has never worked once.



Bonnie is 1 for 2. The dude in the cabin thet is friends with Micah didn't work.


The grandma near Big Valley had never worked.


The only ones that work everytime for me are the mail delivery missions. I've never had a protection or repossession work one time.

Re: Red Dead Redemption 2

The only stranger mission that ever worked for me was Micah's friend. Nobody else worked for me.

Re: Red Dead Redemption 2

I did a loop around the Valentine area a few nights ago (because there was a posse of about 20 forming a ring around Fort Mercer and good luck delivering the mail through that) and all of the missions worked. 3 or 4 of them one after another - did I just get lucky?

That brings up another point - once the stranger missions get ironed out I don't think there's going to be as many griefer complaints. Because with a map as large as this one there's no way that one griefing posse can disrupt all of the stranger missions - maybe a few in a specific region at most. I think it's a max of 32 in a server, so there's going to be a ton of open space and missions to do no matter what.
