Red Dead Redemption 2 |OT2| For A Few Hours More
- Thread starter More_Badass
- Start date
The stealth missions are actually my favourite part of both SP and Online. I do wish the sight cones were more accurate though, so that you could tell the exact range of their forward arc.
"You have no room in your satchel" means that you can't take everything that you might otherwise get from an animal. So you're limited to 5 pieces of each specific type of meat, say. If you have 5 venison already, then skinning a deer will still get you the pelt, but not any venison like you would otherwise receive because you don't have room for it. And skinning different animals gives different things; meat, scent glands, feathers, antlers, claws, fangs, etc. So you might be full on one of those things, which is why you'd see that message. You don't run out of space for pelts, so don't worry about that.
You cannot buy any special arrows; they all require crafting. And you can't buy the ingredients anywhere either; I really wish there was an apothecary that sold oleander.
All gun shops have the same stock, all accessible via the magazine.
There are random events tied to a fair number of the houses, shacks and other buildings you stumble across in the wild. Some are just empty and there for curiosity, some are inhabited, some have had the inhabitants die, some will be visited as part of a larger quest chain; you can't really break anything by going and exploring on your own though.
Okay I don't know if I got lucky or what but using these two techniques I was able to get the pickerel and smallmouth bass, took me about 30 seconds each. The fuck ?
Anyway guess I mean to say thank you, that worked like a charm.
Maybe I need lasik but I really don't see much difference in clarity (if any) between 1.04 and 1.05 on ps4pro
Here's a video of all of Dutch's scenes from RDR1. Warning, because of where you might be in RDR2 story-wise, it might be spoiler territory. And I would advise forgetting what you might remember and just finish playing RDR2 and just add the video to your 'watch later' queue on YouTube.
Fair warning, major spoilers for RDR1/RDR2
Can someone knows if you can find Turkoman and Missouri Fox Trotter horses in the wild? I know they patch Saint Denis.
Rockstar's attention to detail knows no bounds.
Look who I came across while fucking around in the mountains.
I love how much the game rewards you simply for exploring. This is definitely my favorite open world this gen.

I finally, FINALLY, finished the Legend of the East satchel. The last piece was a cougar, and I was trying to bowhunt them for an unrelated hunting challenge. I go up to a spot where cougars tend to spawn and wait until dawn. I see some raccoons, some rabbits, a boar, a pack of coyotes... and then, there, off between the trees, the big cat emerges. I've already got a few to my name, mind you, but I hadn't actually even scanned one at that point. Take out the binoculars, scan, track, ready the bow. It's a 3-star animal. This is the time. I slowly creep forward, as the big cat turns away from me. I call out and immediately knock an arrow and go into deadeye. As he turns his head to look, an arrow takes him cleanly through the base of the spine. Perfect pelt acquired, the final one for the final satchel. Naturally I raced back to camp as fast as possible so I wouldn't lose it in some freak accident. But now it's mine....
This game, yo.
99 fucking inventory slots for EVERYTHING!
This game, yo.
Totally jealous, hunting is it's own game in and of itself here. Never really go crazy into it but will on my next play through. What system are you on?
Quick question chapter 6
I just finished the mission that we rescue eagle flies. I set up a tent and go to sleep after the mission. When I wake up, I got a message saying Arthur is very underweight. I never had this before. Is that because his tuberculosis is progressing and he is close to die?? Oh my, I am not ready to let Arthur go.
PS4 Pro. I didn't have a console yet this generation so I took advantage of the bundle.
Damn. Just finished up the story. Damn. What a fucking game. If I was not unemployed (which make no mistake about it, 110% fully fucking sucks), I am pretty sure I would have beat the game in about 2020. However I do have some free time, and holy shit, what a game. And I am only 78.9% for total completion. Still have a lot to do if I want to.
I will be taking a break though no doubt. Have AC Odyssey to finally start. Still have Spider-Man DLC. Same with Forza 4 Horizon expansion. Then some Battlefield V MP.
Truly this has been a truly fucking amazing year for games, and coming from someone who has been playing them steadily since 1981, I do not say that lightly. But it has been a pretty fucking good year.

luckily i already unlocked the trophy for getting my reputation to the highest. but goddamn i accidentally bump charles with my horse and that shit dropped like 10% lol
Just got killed by a Lemoine Raider in St. Denis because I didn't want to get a bounty for fucking defending myself.
Both hunting and satchel upgrades (and more aspects of the game) are some of the porest excuses of gameplay I ever encountered in a game. I am in chapter 6 and not a moment did I thought by myself: well, a bigger satchel would be nice. The hunting itself is, (in my opinion) exremely boring and dreadful and it takes way to much time. Oh yeah, there was one time I didn't have any food for my horse anymore, but that was before I discovered you can pick stuff up behind Pearson.
The game is most fun for me personally when skipping all this filler nonsense. I completely ignore stuff like the camp, talking to people in the camp, fetching shit for them for some hair pomade, challenges and those ridiculous looking trapper outfits. I don't have all the time in the world and the game is already extremely long when just freeroaming and doing stranger/side/main missions.
Here's a weird thing that happened in one of the Epilogue missions for me
Did anyone else get that weird glitch where when John goes to talk to a Banker for a loan, the entire scene restarts two different times from different perspectives and starting points for some reason? Is that intentional?
Why are the stranger missions time-of-day sensitive? Just have them always available and then skip to the appropriate time upon starting them.
I was listening to a discussion between a miner and his wife in Annesburg. Arthur was stood a couple of metres away from them. The miner storms off from the argument in Arthur's direction, acts as though I've pushed him, punches me in the face and I get a wanted level. I couldn't stop laughing.

Unfortunately no. I'd like to know how long I've played as well.
The game periodically reminds you about Arthurs weight. I'm also in 6 and yesterday I got a message that Arthur is at his minimum weight now. I think this just has to do with how much you eat (or don't eat).

I never got that message. But it is harder to keep him fed because things like cooked meat don't work anymore so you have to feed him a bunch of canned fruit, candies, etc. I would just go to the general store in one of the towns and stock up on canned food, start slamming it. I know things your weight affects your stamina and health cores, but it's not like the game is going to end suddenly because your character is hungry
Finally back to the game now that the Smash Bros. glow has faded a bit.
Got sighted by the cops during the grave robber mission and even though I didn't hurt any of them, the entire city was on fire with angry police for like 20 straight minutes. The only way I was able to break the hunt was to ride completely out of town and hide in a plantation field.
I have a question about the end of Chapter 4:
I finished Chapter 4 and left Guarma, but there was some stuff I wanted to do there before leaving that I never got a chance to. I thought there might have been some dinosaur bones there and I also wanted to hunt some of the local wildlife to get their items. Am I able to travel back to Guarma at all, or am I out of luck?
Out of luck. I'm not even sure there's unique creatures there you can't get anywhere else. That's the end of Chapter 5, by the way
Oh okay, thanks. I saw some parrots there that I hadn't seen anywhere on the mainland before, so I thought there might be other unique stuff as well.
There is nothing there that counts towards 100% as you don't have the option to return. So no dino bones or cigarette cards or other collectables. There are unique animals, but they aren't required for 100% completion; you'll just have some gaps in your compendium if you don't manage to scan them. There are three different parrots, a red-footed booby and four different snakes that don't show up anywhere else. I don't believe that they are used in any special crafting recipes at the trapper or anything, so you won't miss out on anything by not collecting them. There are also crabs, iguanas and boars which are also available in the main game area.
I thought I messed up my legendary moose kill after he fell into the water , didn't realise I could lasso him back onto the shore . No biggie I thought , as the pelt and ingredients will still be at the trapper / fence. About 40 hours later , sat on 96% overall completion , and just realised I don't have it in the compendium as a result. Do legendary animals count towards it ?
I had one swim right to my boat so I didn't even need to reel, but this one has it beat.
I wish hunting and fishing had more of a purpose in the game. So many systems that are OK to have, but feel kinda pointless after a while. Same with gathering herbs I guess, but that's almost never fun in games. I keep grabbing them like I'm compelled to do it, but you hardly need any tonics/consumables in this game, so it's like collecting to collect.
Yeah, the bounty system is seriously bugged and not working. Yesterday I walked by some dudes, they told me to leave, I didn't, they start shooting and I get a bounty for doing nothing.
It was literally right in front of a guard too. Someone attacks me with a knife, nothing happens. I fight back, instant bounty.
Haha. It's kind of weird that Rockstar put so many details in the game and one of the main systems is just not working as it should
Lmao. That was great.
Rob Wiethoff is such a fantastic voice actor. And I felt like his performance got even better as the game went on towards the end.
Damn, I can't find moose anywhere. Last thing to craft in camp (minus satchels) and it requires moose antlers.
I know there's a moose marker up there, but I've been through time and time again with no luck. Tried bait, no luck. I'm at a loss.
You only have to scan like 40 or something animals for the compendium piece to count as "complete." Legendaries don't specifically have to be in it to count towards 100% completion.
You can also find them up in the Western Grizzlies in the snowy area around Cairn Lake (where Flaco Hernandez was). This map shows some additional common moose spawns (don't know that I've seen any around Valentine like this claims but going along the mountains across the entire Northern part of the map is usually a good way to find them).
