Red Dead Redemption 2 Preorder Details Up

Going to wait approximately a year to see if a PC edition is announced (I hope my future self is indeed this patient). I'd prefer to have mods, extra graphics options etc., but if they take too long announcing it i'll probably bite on the PS4 version. No chance I'd double dip.
Anyone else gonna wait a specific timeframe to see if it's coming to PC?

Maybe it doesn't have a similar online structure?
I don't know why people assume Red Dead Online is going to be a 1:1 with how GTA's is set up.
Why would they be offering a GTAV Online cash bonus? You figure if RDR2 has an online mode they would want as many people as possible playing it launch day, so why offer a micro transaction pre-order bonus for a competing online community? That screams either RDR2 Online isn't ready for prime time yet like GTA Online was at launch OR GTAV is such an insane money maker they want to drive as many people as possible to it, even if it's a competing game.
You'll probably get the 500k as soon as you preorder. A lot of people looking forward to RDR2 probably have GTAV and play it's online mode frequently, so you get some extra cash for the game you'll still be playing for the next couple of months.
It's a great idea to be honest.
Edit:Yeah, says spend immediately.
Because you get the money instantly. If I am currently playing GTA:O and I know I'm getting RDR, then it makes sense to just go ahead and pre-order the game now since I instantly get an incentive for something I'm already playing.
I'm ready. Give me those Collector's Edition details Rockstar.
Kinda strange that you get GTA cash for pre-ordering a game that isn't GTA though.

I know GAF loves to hate popular games and devs, but this is reaching to say the least!
This game will not dissapoint.
Why do I feel like the story and single player content could be great and a lot but there will be many saying it's lacking because Rockstar are focusing on MP. I have no doubt the world and story will be amazing.
Oh and in for War Horse. Hopefully there will be an Undead Nightmare dlc and we get them horses too.

You realize RDR had MP right? Pretty fun MP to boot, and I'm pretty much an SP guy. It was a ton of fun posse-ing up.
This isn't GAF...
Also, if you follow my thread you'll notice I say that this is interesting and of note, and that I'm optimistic they've made the right decisions.
I get the feeling that RDR2's "Undead Nightmares" will just be an online event for a day or two.
This is how it begins ...
I can feel the 'I hope it's a short campaign' coming in any time now ...
I'm waiting til black friday i think.
Prequels ruin the drama of a series imo. Im assuming e3 has other games im interested in for this year. Right now im buying 2 games until black friday.
Madden and disgaea 1 remastered.
Hoping for some surprises at e3
As someone with no info on the development of the game at all, I would say until Rockstar has a tent-pole release without a huge single-player mode, don't worry. And of course they'd have a large focus on online for the game. RDR Online will be what Rockstar's hoping everybody transfers to from GTA Online, and then eventually they'll transfer to the new GTA Online when GTA VI comes out in 2023.
Would probably get this digital but I want to see how that collector's edition is going to look.
might sound crazy but do you think 10 year olds and tryhards that rely on jets and passive mode are gonna turn to a wild west game where horses are the only means of transportation? and a game where you cant go passive in a jet and obliterate players from an underground bunker?
Was going to pre-order my September and beyond games in mid-August as my GCU expires on the 28th but now, I'll just pre-order in mid-July when I pre-order Octopath Traveler. Wonder what that treasure map will get me????? Extra minor goodies works for me. :)
good news is that rdr2 and gtao will coexist so that the daycare will still be open
Because they sold 95 million copies of GTA V. They're obviously keen to tempt some of those players to try RDR2, and figure a few GTA$ for pre-ordering RDR2 might be enough to tempt some people who are on the fence.
Am I reading it right? You get the GTA5 money when you preorder not when you buy the game? Its completely normal and makes me believe RDR2 will have its own online. Why give people RDR money when you can charge them for it at launch.

well weve known it would since the press release back in 2016...
I mean, RDR had its own online, so... surprise surprise...?
