Dont tie them, lasso them then ride your horse, you cant move fast, but it eventually kills them.

Get on horse. Gallop towards non-hogtied civilian/gang member/cop/whatever non animal thing you're after. Lasso them. Don't stop galloping. Congratulation, you are now dragging somebody!

I think that is the problem with multiplayer, its like they turned off all the little things that made the world interesting. There seems to be this whole assumption that nobody will play multiplayer the way they do single player. You don't get posses of men swaggering around towns and starting brawls, because the law goes into killmode in multiplayer, but also because everyone just zooms from one challenge to the next on horseback, with the assumption of shooting anyone who isn't on their team.

Maybe multiplayer was an afterthought and just implemented it to see how successful it would be. It could be improved 100% if they make a sequel.

SO TRYING THIS

They did try hard with it, and it did turn out better than with GTA IV, but it wasn't the whirlwind of opportunity and immersion that single player was. I think an offline co-op mode would be more enjoyable.


I can't be the only one that, when I get a message like "Rubrik was killed by the Walton gang" thinks of http://www.retroland.com/retrotalk/userfiles/039_43849.jpg?

If only we could name our characters. I'd so name mine Jon Boy.

What was the update for?

With the whole MP thing.I have to say it still entertains me a lot.I cannot play it consistently but to pick up once and a while with a group its still fun.Still when I first played it I thought it would of been the same thing as SP minus the MQ.

Does the law in red dead use spy satallites? If i kill a random guy in the middle of the desert with a knife, i get a bounty. It doesnt matter where i do it or how, you always get a bounty. Kinda wierd that in 1911 the law used spy satalittes... :facepalm:

Did you already have a bounty? Were there eye witnesses?

HALT CITIZEN YOU'VE BROKEN THE LAW

(that would be great if one ran up to you and did that once )

no sir. all alone, still got a bounty. Ill give it another try later on and report back just to make sure im not talking out of my ass.

1. Tie up stranger and bring him to the middle of the desert
2. Pour bait on him
3. wait
4???
5. Laugh hard :celebration:

I don't think they did better than GTA, theres alot more to do in GTA like fly helicopters, drive boats, cars etc, also they have better game types. Me and my friends still play GTA multiplayer, I no longer play Red Dead multiplayer.

This game is lacking way too much in both SP and MP. I can't believe I traded FO3 and ME2 for it :banghead:

I'm actually pondering starting another SP game... Should I?

Yeah, why not

Since people got make a big deal out of a question and get my thread closed here i ask why is deadlus and son stranger mission not working i have all materials and it still wont work.

I think we need more information than that to be honest. All you're saying is pretty much "It should work, but it doesn't". What happens when you try to finish it? Won't the conversation start at all? Are you completely sure you have the specific ingredients in the right amount?

Yep, that pretty much settled everything for me

I tried my first multiplayer session last night... had a blast. Pretty much as soon as I joined, I got invited to a posse, which I followed around as they did gang hideouts. After a couple of hours, a couple of our members start betraying us... this just lead to the complete destruction of the entire posse. Those two turned, so three of our members went after them and the other three of us just got picked apart by this other posse.

I went lone wolf after that. Stayed away from the more aggressive players, stood my ground when I had to, and didn't get ganked too much.

Just wish other players wouldn't kill you on sight all the time.

I'm playing the game for the first time today, and it seems to throw things at you and explain while you're trying to do it, which didn't work too well for me. I was trying to do the tutorial race, but since my tv is square, I couldn't even see that there was a stamina bar for a horse. After kinda figuring that out, I was helping the sheriff out on his first mission when a guy right after rode up and wanted me to help save his brother who was being wrongfully hanged. I wanted to, so I called my horse over. It didn't come, and I found it stuck in a fence. After trying a few things to get it untangled, I get a pop-up that said the guy died. How would I know he died? I'm not a psychic guard!

I don't know why it won't work, but the reason your thread was closed is because the mods like to keep the forums organized and uncluttered, so making a thread for one question clutters the forums, so therefore, thread lockage.

Need a bit more info than that.Are you able to talk to him?
