Yeah, it might not exactly be rocket horses, but after GTAO, would anyone be even remotely surprised if heavy horse armour or armoured carts with mounted Gatling guns get introduced?



Or even just strip out single-player-style emergent interactivity (which seems to be one of the big selling points of the game so far, and I hope RDO retains some of that), and replace it with Freemode Events and more 'buy X property, deliver Y goods, repeat ∞ times' Freemode businesses.

 

And I'm sure if R* added options to turn into Dracula, or fly a dragon or something, there'd be a certain segment of players prepared to defend it to the hilt 'because Undead Nightmare', even while Freemode becomes all but unplayable for folks who don't want to get ganked by idiots using the hot new gimmicky toys... :rol:

I second this! P2P in a open world game with over 30 players sucks!! They can afford Dedicated Servers especially with the gtao cash coming in almost every day

If i see the same empty invite lobby session system as in GtaO i will just quit and never come back. Probably just sticking to offline will be good decision if they want to make it same as gtao

Yeah I'll be weary af if they port this crappy natchmaking system into rdro..the matchmaking system from rdr1 was excellent for the most part! Improve that system and they'll vve set for llife!

Yes please, they have more than enough money for dedicated servers and know they about to make much more. Please they gotta stop this weak way to connect and play with 30 people in a lobby/match.

This will happen, you can bet on it. They will add something that is just crazy unfair towards those who wont purchase it within a year to year and a half.

I third that. No reason they can not have dedicated servers. And their match making system in GTA V Online is the absolute worst ive seen in any game that i have played online. There is literally 0 reasons why you can have the most amount of players playing a game online , and yet take forever to fill a lobby ( anything outside of a race or the advesary mode giving double xp that week). Made trying to play any other match just unbearable after about the first 8 months. Because you wasted more time loading, waiting in lobby for match to get enough people to start, then after waiting so long backing out then back to loading screen to free roam, repeat...... Even to this day , i can jump on BF4 and find full lobbies of 64 players in 5 seconds. And be joining them in less than a minute.That game came out early when ps4 launched, yet i can find full lobbies to this day in no time. The match making system of GTA V Online was and is still my biggest pet peeve with that game and is what killed my enjoyment of what could and should be still a great thing. 

 

I recall them hyping having matches of 32 people before launch. I think that happened 2 times for me ( about 28 people) in a deathmatch . Then after that , they did an update .... and it never happened again , not even close really . With as many people as they had playing that game online there is no excuse for it other than the issue is their crappy match making. The reason i fear this will be handled the same way..... is because they would never ever even acknowledge their issue was their own fault. Can't fix a problem if you dont acknowledge it even exists. I really hope im wrong. As much as I will love the offline, it will only hold me over so long . Online could make it last for years and years, but only if they do it right. Currently i dont trust them with this part.

Good thing that the online portion of this game is gonna be in beta when it launches because by then, they cannot afford to ignore us and the potential issues that'll pop up.

The biggest problem with gtao is the minimal single player content. It is impossible for late players to progress. Also the missions like heists that have to be qeued for in stages is a joke. The costly shark cards with gtao is one of the biggest issues. Zenimax have a 12.99 sub service with lots of benefits for players. and it works. as roughly 90% of that community have the subscription this then gives them the revenue to create quality dlcs. Similar is final fantasy iv.

i saw a „online 2-32 players“ sticker somewhere. so no private solo lobbies anymore?

They wouldn't advertise solo public anyway but maybe invite only and crew sessions won't be options either. Which concerns me tbh.

GTA V's box says about the same thing and that has private and solo lobbies. I'm not too worried.

from their wording, I think they won't release paid DLCs for RDO, but regular updates like GTAO, which also makes me think that they'll push the microtransaction part of it eventually, hopefully it's not absurd like it is in GTAO.
