Nice one Andy. :P

Hmm... I'll raise you http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSHr4ubuD64 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgvxu8QY01s for your one. :P

Well now.. lookit here, y'all. A greenhorn dun pulled up to mah table, an' dun bet his nag to boot..

I'll be takin' that horse now...



It's a shame really, when young guns come a-moseying in, and reckon they all that... then old timers the likes of my ol' bones gotta take 'em down a notch er two. Yessir, it's just the way the land a seems ta bein' headin' these days. What with new fangled contraptions, telegraf an 'the railroads a comin' fer lords sakes even! They got them selves a boat load o' chinamen workin' fer spit up there blastin' through th' mountains an' layin' down rail.
Hell, they even have a bonifide phonographical orkeestra box sittin' ona table, playin' th' whole damn symphonic at once fer them chinamen ta work to.
Yep, progress they'sa callin' it.
Ah reckon it ain't all that. :P

Depends on where you pre-ordered from. If its from GameStop, make sure they printed out the code on the receipt or its on the box before leaving the store.

Guess not :D
What is it? I have a PS3, but no internet connection for it -because it's a fatty :(
and my gaming rig is boxed up due to space issues in house -not enough of it.

So, yeah.. :blush:


Btw.. two things
one
Can we marshal tactical assests in free roam.. ie, can I gather a bunch of cannons and gattling machineguns and mess up someones day really bad :gun:

two
Can we shoot the horses out from under peoples butts? If so, then beware, it won't be like in the movies.. :evil:





I saw molotov's as well :ninja:

Im sure if you wanted multiple people could get wagons with gatling guns, and anything else needed.
If I was in agroup in free roam can we meet other groups and fight them, because that would be fun, annoying too because it would be like an mmo but fun to have rival gangs fighting eachother.

I think that's how free roam works. Or the competitive mode at least.

You can probably get some Gatling Guns on wagons like this isnt my name said, but I think the cannons are strapped to where they are? Not sure, but it'd kinda be hard to move them off towers. :P Though, you always could just bring the Gatling guns too the Cannon, and give support?... Wonder if they'll have trenches too? Or something similar? :gun:

I thought free roam was just allowing you to play normaly, just with a group, and to me competative looked like a free for all. Whatever it is, we will find out in a few days.

I think in competitive, that's where you can play the capture the flag, and the other multiplayer game matches. Free Roam, you just go about doing whatever you want. Maybe I've got it wrong though? I can't remember.

Just re watched free roam, you fight others and do what you want, should be fun.

Yeah, that's what I thought it was. And competitive, was just people playing team death match, capture the flag, etc.

I found the control scheme:


Left anolog: Movement(probably click for crouch)
Right anolog: Camera (press down for Dead Eye)
Up: Whistle for horse
Left Bumper: Weapon Wheel
Right Bumper: Attach to cover
Left Trigger: Aim
Right Trigger: Shoot
A: Run (Hold to sprint, unlimited stamina)
Y: Mount Horse
X: Jump/Climb
B: Manual Reload

And left, right, and down d-pad are for changing weapon quickly, instead of using the wheel.

NOTE: These are not official, but there's a good chance they are.

it's never a good idea to get too wrapped up in Hype

Peter Molyneaux taught me that the hard way with Fable 2 :(

now I almost never pay too much attention to any one game, didn't listen to the ME2 hype, haven't listened to too much of RDR, same with Mafia II

Don't spoil it for yourself

Yeah, I guess I am. I've gotten hyped over alot of games, and I just a feeling that this game will be all it's hyped up to be, without one doubt.

The controls just seem like the ones for GTA4 on 360, and of course the similar layout of the PS3 controller.

Good, they decided to stop trying to give us all Carpal-Tunnel Syndrome by making us repeatedly tap A to make Niko Marston run.

And yeah, Free Roam means no story mode like in single player, but you can do pretty much everything else, just with 15 of your buddies. Competitive is you go into controlled, competitive games like deathmatch, capture the flag, probably horse racing, etc.

Also, I'm probably going to be playing some multiplayer within the first few days, but I think we should set up a multiplayer day on the 22nd or 23rd or something. That way its a weekend, all of our EU players will be able to get the game by then, and we can all play together.

I'm shocked Microsoft didn't strike a deal with rockstar but I wonder if it will come out for xbox as well or maybe there will be a xbox exclusive content.
