Red Dead Redemption 2 and how Rockstar disappoints

[LordDraven]

1. No PS4Pro love? No performance vs resolution option? Other games half the studio size and money have this option

2. Having to slam on the x button repeatedly to run your horse? Ok , you can use cinematic mode but that's not the full solution

Come on...

 

[RoKKeR]

Huh? These hardly classify as disappointments.

 

[Van Bur3n]

That's it?

 

[Fat4all]

i thought this was gonna be about their mission structures

 

[Forkball]

I'm playing it for the first time now. It's somehow wildly boring yet enjoyable.

 

[Linus815]

what would a performance option even do... surely you dont think the ps4 pro would pump out anywhere near 60 fps in this game even at 1080p.

 

[iCodec]

I was expecting more?

 

[MistahS]

This thread is disappointing

 

[Cordy]

Man, I expected OP to drop a huge thesis on us about why he thought the game was disappointing. While I disagree, I expected more than this.

[stan_marsh]

Ok

 

[DominicanGlory]

The game is a giant disappointment but not for those reasons.

 

[Tohsaka]

The PS4 Pro could not run this game at 60FPS, even the Xbox One X can't.

It definitely was for PS4 Pro owners. ;)
Even Digital Foundry thought there could've been done more on Pro, especially in regards to the poorly done checkerboard rendering, which made the game even blurrier and less detailed than it was in 1080p.

Also no photomode in the console versions was a big disappointment to me personally. I was so looking forward to it being the next Horizon Zero Dawn or Spider-Man, where amazing photography overtook social media for months.

 

[AllChan7]

I mean, I find it to be a masterpiece but those who have issues with it certainly wouldn't consider these the only 2 factors that make it a disappointment

 

[Deimos]

Rockstar just shot themselves in the foot.

 

[DC5remy]

I didn't even like the game but never thought about these "issues"

Riding a horses for 50 hours would be a better start.

 

[CJSeven]

Hopefully Dan Houser loses his job over this.

 

[Rizific]

Don't worry, a performance mode won't save the game from its dumpster fire controls. 60fps didn't make the game any more playable for me on pc.

Lol

Git gud.

 

[hydruxo]

I'm also not a fan of Rockstar's insistence of sticking with the outdated mash X to run controls in GTA and RDR, but RDR2 is still a masterpiece even with its gameplay issues.

I was gonna go with literally worst-in-genre controls, personally.

No, this game is tremendous and goty 2018

 

[Pyro]

I thought this was gonna be about how RDR2 is one of the worst controlling games of all time.

 

[TaySan]

Game is a lot more enjoyable on a PC with high framerates + Gsync. Game is breathtaking at 4K.

 

[8bit]

LEMMY!

 

[leng jai]

Literally 1000 valid nitpicks about the game but that's what the OP comes up with?

 

[gogosox82]

Really those are the complaints? Was expecting complaints about the mission structure or the animations or something.

 

[dosh]

I think there's an option to switch the control scheme to 'standard FPS', which moves sprint from X to L3. You can then turn 'toggle run' on in the accessibility options (if memory serves) and enjoy a mashing-free RDR2.

 

[AndrewDean84]

I get bored every time I try to play this game, and I've played Death Stranding.

 

[Detective]

This is more of a YouTube comment than a thread ....

 

[Justsomeguy]

op put even less effort in than Rockstar did into making a game that was actually fun.

This thread and how OP disappoints.

 

[Gamer @ Heart]

Jesus Christ OP.

I thought for sure this would be how they support their multiplayer with pimp hats and discounts while letting major bugs fester for months on end, and it ends up being some pretty shit

Yes pressing a button to Sprint on a horse is dumb, it's even dumber that they allow you to avoid it all together when on foot through settings but didn't do the same for horses annoyingly. That said, it's peanuts compared to how slow of a company they are to react to any thing except economy exploits

I was asking myself the same about the performance mode in Horizon: Zero Dawn. Always took the quality mode there.

 

[DeepBlueDay]

RDR2 is a masterpiece.

But yeah, the weak points are the controls and the mission structure.
But still, the game is an unforgettable journey.
