Red Dead Redemption 2

Penn

Never had much issue with cash. Even at the start, once you loot enough bodies you get a lot of watches, buckles and even just cash. Then again I never had huge bounties on me as I was mostly plowing through story and side missions rather than busting into a town and wrecking the place.

Issue I have with cash is I keep dying. Love rolling into a town and going on a rampage. Always get killed though.

On the other hand I love busting into town and wrecking the place and struggled with cash as my bounty was always huge money

Can't believe I'm finally at the end of this thread! Now what the hell am I'm going to read during the day?!

Just started Chapter 4 last night and arrived at St Denis, amazing and very immersive game.

Chapter 3 end - Sean was a shocker. I liked him

I decided to loot a burning body. Only problem was I found myself engulfed in flames in seconds, burning myself to death. Lesson learned.

Don't know how to access the photos from the in game camera, but -

I was at a crossroads outside Rhodes -

There was a round "hotspot" on the ground, glowing red & yellow

Soon as I got off me horse it screamed and legged it -

I ran over the circle and Arthur started losing health and roaring -

Dropped an animal pelt on it and it burst into flames right away -

It hung around for about 5 minutes and eventually shrunk and disappeared -

All the while this was happening, all the passersby on wagons and horses would stop for a gawk at the circle and move on - but no specific chatter out of them,

Weird one, anyone else seen anything like it?

if i can get the photo off social club i'll put it up here..

Feck,

I don't think I looked up at all

I'd read about that "hellspot" near Rhodes. Seems to be a glitch involving invisible fire.

I've also heard about parts of the map not loading resulting in a massive hole in the ground that you can fall into.

Wonder is it a glitch or are rockstar going very in depth with geological phenomenons? :pac:

Same here.

I find it impossible to walk around a town without getting into trouble. I just get this incredible urge to hurl abuse at NPCs, and then then beat their ass for whatever few coppers they have.

This invariably leads to some rat bastard running to inform the law and me getting killed in a shootout.

I was mistakenly giving out f*ck about gun degradation during a mission. Waves of lads coming at me and they weren’t dropping. Spent way too long killing them off and then realised I was using the varmint rifle :pac:

Once had a feller say "don't point that squirrel gun at me." Its grand for headshots!

Only issue I had was when you first start the Epilogue. I'd highly recommend holding onto most of what you pick up, from half through chapter 6. But its just to tie you over. Reckon $300 worth would do just in case you need it. Iv'e always payed the bounty there and then after I got issued with one, wonder how much Iv'e accumulated.


Anyone know if there's a stat for bounties payed?

Had a friend over the other night, let him play while I was getting dinner ready. $120 bounty on my head, horse dead, relatively good reputation ruined. All in twenty minutes or so, raging.

How long have you known gimli?

Riddle101

Lol, so I got ambushed by a few gang members, tried to chase them down, then fell into a hidden pit trap. Luckily I managed to kill most of the guys before they could get me but one of them tried to flee, so I chased him, lassoed him and hogtied him, then I threw him into a lake and watched him drown.

Some of these stories you lads might be better telling a psychiatrist.

Being the good guy in this game is the equivalent of obeying the traffic lights in gta.

My Arthur is a sadistic prick.

Go watch The Unforgiven

Only re-watched it, the amount of influence RDR2 and even the original takes for this movie is very evident.

Get different endings depending on how you play the game

Finished the Duchess and other animals, not nearly worth the effort involved unless you are aiming for 100% I'd say I put 10 hours into that alone ffs.

You get about $700, a pimp hat and a revolver.

Lone Stone

i had a hilarious bug where a horse and cart had got stuck half way under the road so it was half a horse and cart sticking out, and i everything that came down that road pilled up and crashed then a fire started and they all burned to death and left a pile of burnt horse bones.

alta stare

Just played 4 hrs and got loads done. Im going to bed as if iv achieved something with my life.

Anyone else come across that cave in Annesburg yet? Weird bunch of creatures in there haha

iLikeWaffles

Yes everyone will come across that!

Having played the original game numerous times since 2010....am I the only one who would feel bad going back to complete the original where the government agents make you kill Dutch?

In the first game.... Dutch was pretty much a one dimensional character.......a classic baddie...and to add to that, he didn't even appear that much in the first game. I didn't care that I had to kill him....it was just a mission to get out of the way and I thought nothing of it.

I feel I really connected with Dutch in this game though.....he was a bit crazy at times, but also very interesting, learned and charismatic.

I loved the original RDR so much....but I hate the thought of going back to play it now as I'd have to kill Dutch in the end

Necro

Haven't been able to play that much this week, or really since I finished the main game but got on for an hour today. Went back doing a few sidequests that I had neglected before finishing.

There's one way up north where Arthur teaches a girl how to hunt, I completed the first part but then went back as John and she was dead!

Anyone know if that's because I left it too long? Or is there a different outcome if I complete it prior to the Epilogue....

In another way........ Red Dead Redemption 2 is a take on the original Buffalo Bill acts...


Bringing the Wild West to audiences thousands of miles away from the American Frontier.


I would have loved to have witnessed Buffalo Bill's original acts

But in all honesty.....


Red Dead Redemption 2 in its virtual sincerity.......

..is our generations take on the original Buffalo Bill shows

And how enjoyable it is.... felling like a cowboy in the Wild West



Red Dead Redemption 2 is this generations answer to the original Buffalo Bill Wild West shoes

Long may this epoch continue.
