    I'll have a look later at that, I've VS installed on my machine 9gb on top the 40gb it's currently using won't kill me :D

    Just looking into Android Studio seems to be a better option. There is native Play Store emulation with that, Nexus emulator iirc, whereas Google Play in VS seems to need the google play services to be installed from the emulator and also is deprecated. Far more programming involved with VS.

    Is the pre-order bonus only for physical copies?

    I pre-ordered the digital version via the XB store, so have no codes. Do I get a War Horse :(?
    Check your messages there should be one from xbox live. Says it's for gta dollars but actually unlocks the bonuses too.

    Upgrading the camp gets so much easier when you realise there is a ledger to buy things :D loving the game so far, have paused for the Munster match but myself and red dead 2 have a long date night planned :)

    So I'm up in the snowy mountains (on a side mission) and far away from my horse. All I can hear is the wolves a howlin'. This won't end well.

    Stuff needs to be on the horse if you want to sell it to a Butcher that's pretty dumb you can't hold a pelt and sell it directly.

    You can hold as many pelts as your satchel will allow but only carcasses will feed the camp (2 rabbits either side + 1 large animal on top).

    Is there a list of compatible devices for the play store app?

    The tracker for 100% completion is horribly broken in a good way, my game is showing as 18% complete and so is the achievement tracker and I've done literally nothing.

    How is tapping x to sprint/gallop still a thing?

    God be with the days of Roach.

    Yup. It's really near
    the debt collection mission where you have to lasso the guy and then got find the money in the tree from the map he gives you.

    For a game I probably wont play again after i finish it it makes more sense and I can trade it in for cash. Will likely end up costing half the price of digital in the long run.

    But...... Multiplayer......

    Rode in to some random farm, farmer was not happy. Had to shoot him, loot his house while at it.

    Had a cowpen next to the house with 3 of the buggers just chillin. Next thing i knew i put 5 arrows in each. They had knowhere to run and just crying out with each arrown. 1 was a bad kill so just lying there crying out. Skinned 1 and off i went.


    Felt pretty bad, good meat though.

    Multiplayer won't be out for a while?

    I think its gonna be a month or so.

    November apparently.

    Not surprising really that its not available at launch, GTA 5 multiplayer took a while to come out as well If I remember correctly.

    Hopefully rockstar remember that not all players want multiplayer and give some single player dlc's this time.

    There was Undead Nightmare in the original?

    And theres been 5 years of regular updates to gta 5 online and nothing for single player. Some of us of a certain vintage who have been playing rockstar games since the 90's prefer offline to online gaming .Would be nice to get a few dlc 's like gta iv got.
    Another undead would be good as well

    That's my concern, they gave 2 fingers to single players with GTAV.

    Based on the success of GTAV onlIne I was worried about the single player of this game but having only played 2% my worries are no more...stunning.

    However, I do still fear the quality of GTA 6 single player

    That took 3/6 months longer than expected and it was having terrible issues from what i remember at launch. Hopefully this won't be the same.

    Jesus worst Irish accent in a video game Sean McGuire, the voice actor is actually Irish as well!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,198 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Yep, serious case of the "Oim Oirish so I am!" with all the Irish accents I've heard so far.

    The stamina drain is really starting to annoy me now, just drowned swimming less than 50 meters and not being able to find what I needed to boost it to get the shore 5 meters away :mad:

    If im honest over all this is not hooking me the way i expected and there are so many minor annoyances with it, like doing a mission in Valentine there and going to search a drawer against the same wall an npc is stood against in the next room of the hotel and I get a bounty on me as he's seen me through the wall. The realism that you can run your horse into a tree and kill it.

    A hunting challenge for shooting a few rabbits from the horse , ok let me press 3 buttons to get my bow out ... where is that rabbit gone.

    Your horse is out of range , having to swap saddles to a new one. You forget to take gear from the horse before you leave it. All sucking the fun out of the game for me.

    I know coming from Assassin's Creed likely spoiled me where the horse would spawn behind you, and they are going for realism here but your horse is more than happy to sprint along side a moving train to follow you if you don't hitch it :rolleyes:

    I was going to buy a RDR2 bundle PS4 pro bundle from Argo’s but does anybody know If the bundle contains a physical copy of the game or does it give you a download code. It doesn’t say anything on the Irish website but got this from their UK one.
    “Bundle contains....... in-game content PlayStation Store voucher code”

    My internet is rubbish and would take a long time to download the full game. The pro bundle is not available in my nearest Smyths.

    Any advice/help greatly appreciated!


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,611 ✭✭✭✭ERG89


    Played the first 2ish hours. Riding/moving in the snow feels very plodding which was a surprise for an introduction to the game and even on foot Arthur's movement on steady ground seems much less limber than John's was in the previous game.
    Just after grabbing dynamite from the O'Driscoll camp and heading to rob a train.
    Too tired to stay playing now.

    If it's the official bundle it's the physical disc copy based on every unboxing I've seen.
    Just the regular edition which comes with some minor DLC & a map.
