Red Dead Redemption - anyone playing ?

[Mark TKO]

So I spent all day on this fucker yesterday and seemed to get nowhere.

I use free aim which is hard sometimes in gunfights and dead eye runs out in seconds.

I finished one mission then stayed to loot the camp and before I knew it the law surrounded me and I was a goner. The horse I bonded with also died so I’m back to square one there with Tennessee walker who is shite.

I go to where legendary animals are and it says there’s too much activity in the area.

And I’ve activated all these side missions and got nowhere with any of them. Anyone else got treasure maps ? Can’t work out where anywhere fucking is from the shitty drawings.

And crafting can fuck right off.

I will keep going on the main story

Haven't found any treasure yet, haven't really started to look tho.

With dead eye, I aim, then go into dead eye, this brings you into dead eye targeting your enemy. Headshot, this will bring you out of dead eye, then aim again quickly and then go back into dead eye. Hope that made sense. Seems to last a bit longer that way.

The wheel to use tonics and that is not very user friendly. Is there no way to quick equip these to the directional buttons?

[Mark TKO]

Yeah the wheel with r1 and l1 hold and release is poor . Almost like a game in itself to get the fucking thing to work

How often do you find yourself sitting on your horse just randomly looking in every direction for who is screaming-shooting-and or yelling for you . There are many times when chasing or following someone you'll have to stop, hit map, zoom and get bearings then back out and resume. Haven't found it but a quick tap map view is very much needed. And apparently looting a body in town is a federal crime that brings out the posse even though you didn't raise a finger to kill them.


Also didn't realize there was a 1st person option. And carcasses don't keep for long at all on your horse. Still haven't lost my horse even though had to run for miles to get more reviver and go back .

Set the waypoint on map to camp, keeps you with lead path no matter how far out so far.

The Driscols like to start shat. Just dumped 5 off a cliff and the now free horses carry loot too.

When are we going to start a thread about Minecraft and Fortnite?

Spic hold down the options button a little longer - it will go straight into your map and skip the second options screen.

Also if you get your horse stolen just whistle it as normal. It will buck them off and come back to you - only just discovered this...
