    Still haven't got access. :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,325 ✭✭✭iLikeWaffles


    There is a crew for GTA online (Boards-ie) do we use the same one or start another for RDO?

    Better off starting another I think. Not sure how active that crew is.

    Probably best to start a new crew for RDR2 online.

    Just looking there its for GTA only I think. There is social club on RDR2 not sure if a crew/posse would show up though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,438 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    The Boards-ie crew will work for RDR 2. I started that for Max Payne 3 Online and since then any Rockstar games can use the same crew.


    https://socialclub.rockstargames.com/crew/boards-ie/wall


    Basically, when you start online in RDR, you should have an option to join crew members so basically it's the fastest way to join local lads for the craic. There are 678 members in that so a quick way to join the majority of players already on boards. Feel free to join that one if ye like.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,405 ✭✭✭Lone Stone


    we need a role play only crew cause ya'll ger er to taulk like dis

    I'm in that one alright. I'd say R* will update one for RDO eventually.

    Looking at this thread on Reddit it seems like a giant grind for some cash...

    https://www.reddit.com/r/reddeadredemption/comments/a13gxq/wrong_gold_bar_math/

    I just need some time...and money.

    Did anyone expect anything different after GTA V?

    Just one more score... after these 10 scores so I can buy a colour for my saddlebags.

    Seems there is admin fee of $200 in game dollars to form a persistent posse as well :rolleyes:

    Not sure why they are calling it an admin fee. What needs to be maintained that isn't already programmed.


    The prices of weapons is ridiculous 400% dearer than single player. WTF R*??


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,438 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Yeah I saw the admin fee on a steam and it looked strange. Would definitely want to know what permanent possie entailed before parting with 200 quid. I just read that beta progress might not carry over to full online so I wouldn't go investing too much anyway.

    How are ye finding it?

    Absolutely.
    Monatisation at it's finest.

    I think my plan will be to knock a bit of craic out of this for a couple of weeks and then forget about it as the grind will take over.

    Only way to progress is via micro-transactions once you hit that wall.
    It's the part of Rockstar / Take - Two I despise.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,325 ✭✭✭iLikeWaffles


    I'm on two minds about waiting till its out of beta TBH. The thoughts of free roaming missions and travelling is not appealing to me atm. Its pretty smooth so far though no issues as far as I can tell. Apart from the stupidly priced in game items.

    Again this is not surprising at all tbh

    Tried to sell items to a shopkeeper there can't be done!

    You can sell to the butcher, doesn't accept pelts horse was out of range you can! I'd presume you can sell to a trapper if that's available.


    Gunsmith prices for customising your guns is pretty stupid! Appearance customisations require Gold. F%^*FF

    No sign of trapper, and butchers are so far apart it's stupid that not every town has one.

    There's still fences.

    Red dead redemption 1 online was better, there was actually things to do.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,325 ✭✭✭iLikeWaffles


    Hunting is stupid difficult you have to fire your gun first aiming shows animal info.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,325 ✭✭✭iLikeWaffles


    How do you even quit out of online?


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,473 ✭✭✭✭Varik

    You just need to aim and you don't need to fire, you also don't need to bring up the info if you know what gun to use already.

    give your bank details to Rockstar then they'll release you

    I like grindy stuff but I'm not sure of this model. Played Destiny for years and just bought a dance

    You don't HAVE to buy anything. Seems pretty good so far, no disconnections or no lag.
