RDR2 PC Discussion & Speculation

[(Vip)Met]

I'd like to speculate on a fake leak too to talk about RDR2 for PC

Question unrelated to RDR2: What's the highest post count on one thread ever? Or the most pages? Wonder if we're close.

Answer, not even close....

Next DLC Speculation Thread is on part 8 now, so it's into the 8,000 pages.  (Actually Page 8,416)

Wait for when it will be announced for real, maybe there'll be a chance

EDIT: Wait for something like this

You can sort the forums by post count. RDR2 has a fair few bigger than this one.

 

GTA has a bajillion.

Justified considering it's 6 years old + what, 2 years of speculation?

GTA is just more hype innit.

 

RDR2's pre-release hype on this forum was different to GTA V's though, it was done primarily in one thread which reached just over 3.5k pages before launch, that wasn't really a thing for GTA V, GTAO has similar threads (like the Next DLC thread) which is why it has some massive threads.

 

Doubt we'll do that again for GTA VI cause one thread for GTA VI speculation sounds like hell but we'll see.

You'll learn, it's a given.

Doubt it will support DX10, to be honest. It's more than obsolete now and as said before, it really didn't stick compared to DX11. GTA V had it because GTA V was already a legacy game in and of itself, made for last gen and developed in an era where developers could still put DX10 switches in their games for old GPUs.

I was provided some Red Dead Redemption 2 files recently, based on my findings I have found zero mentions of DX12 in the game code. 

 

However, I found some PC code.

GTA VI's pre-release is going to be far too big, we will absolutely have to leave the GTA Next forum as is (like GTA V) except allowing threads that are specific to the announcement. RDR2's pre-release was slow burning as we tried to tap on to that too here.

Thanks for the heads up. I will try the Xenia emulator. I knew Xenia performs better than RPCS3 for RDR but I never really bothered to try it out until now. 

RDR1 is almost playable on my Ryzen 5 3600 and a GTX 1060 on Xenia so it's definitely working better. (Also because Xbox 360 and PS3 are very different beasts)

Okay

 

Blue - PlayStation

Green - Xbox 

Gray - PC (potentially the Epic Games Store - Either way it's PC) 

 

 

Eh, why not... Rockstar Editor is also coming. (somepoint)

 

 

 

 

Why not some player model changes and bodyguard mods on top of that list, aye? A taste of PC modding at it's finest.

Yeah but it says IOS and Android and I doubt it's gonna come out on those platforms. Unless there's something else in this screenshot that I'm missing?

Android & iOS are for the Companion app, it runs on RAGE.

That makes sense, thanks for clearing that up. Great to see something that supports the PC verison existing.

Probably the draw in duels will be done with the mouse, like moving it slowly while pushing a button or something.
To be honest tho, I played the game and I really recommend you guys to play it with a controller, it's really nice.

The Call of Juarez games had duels, too, and I never played them with a controller.

GTA V - Parachuting

Isn't Steam also a bit darker gray/blue ?

 

Dunno, when I think about Steam gray also comes to mind.

 

Anyway it could be just a neutral PC color, they could have picked "Yellow" for Social Club/Warehouse

I can't wait for a in-game editor for RDR2. I remember making movies in GTA IV for PC back in the day. Maybe this one will be called "Red Dead Editor". I wish RDR1 had something similar. So many possibilities with RDR2, the level of detail and the beauty of the world will make for outstanding screenshots/videos.

It appears it's called "Replay Editor" in the RDR2 code, perhaps not though.

Probably easier to code with a more basic term, but later change it to something fancier if they want.

The RGB value listed for COLOR_PLATFORM_GREY is actually orange like Rockstar Social Club oddly enough.

That about confirms the Warehouse version.

Part of me hopes they call the rockstar editor in RDR2 the REDitor

This is the internal term for the Editor since GTA V.

 

Also, the "loading-masking" videos might be 4K on consoles too, because they're extremely high bitrate and nearly unnoticeable. They did an amazing job with making chapter transitions seamless.

[Originope]

Some 2 cents I wanna add in here, I bet the Cutscene_Mar6_Train one is the prerendered video that plays in Bare Knuckle Friendships at 1:00 - 1:10

This and your other posts have been really interesting and hopefully will pull the thread back on track! 

 

Between this his and the other screenshots, what is it we’re looking at, and where does it originate from? 

Forgive me for asking if it is obvious - not hugely savvy with code! 

 

Thanks

I believe it is from the Companion app, those should be various settings hidden in the code. You can see the platforms which is the most important for us because proves that a PC version exists.
