Red Dead Redemption 2: Discussion & Speculation (Part 3)

[OutlawGummyWilly]

The unpinned tweet and late night wanted poster is all the announcement we need that today is the day for part 2.

Pinkerton's website

 

It was founded in 1850 and then bought by Securitas, a Sweidsh company, for $384M in 1999. I assume that Rockstar isn't using the agency's trademark without their agreement. 

 

Dutch's nightmare? They never had sleep, I suppose.

The Nintendo Direct was cancelled and will be rescheduled for a later date due to the earthquake. Not sure but I think it was mentioned here by some due to Rockstar news like GTAV for Switch? Figured there might be an interest in the update.

Post is still pinned on rock stars facebook page just now!

[SneakyDeaky]

Wouldn't it be nice if it were announced in the morning then released in the evening that same day?

No joke friend...

 

Nintendo has cancelled today’s planned Nintendo Direct presentation because of a major earthquake in Hokkaido, Japan. At least eight people have been killed as a result of the earthquake and 5.3 million left without electricity.

No indication has been given as to when the Direct will be rescheduled, but Nintendo’s tweet implies it won’t be this week

[Emmi]

Oh, I totally missed the news. Sad to hear! I wonder IF GTAV really was tba later today in that Direct what it means for RDR2 news? I feel like they planned to reveal GTAV Switch today and delayed ganeplay video 2 because of that!

$150,000 in cash huh? I wonder if this along with the "One dollar poker" we saw in the Gameplay Trailer confirms that the amount of money we will have in this game will be toned down to have it historically accurate. If this happens i don't mind as in V i found it very ridiculous that i could walk around with almost endless amounts of money in my wallet/bank account. 

This gif had me thinking. What if we can play Russian roulette against other NPCs? How it could work: The NPC hands you the gun, hold R2 to turn the gun sideways, L2 to take out the cylinder and L1 to insert bullet. Then R1 to insert the cylinder back again at original position and whilst still holding down R1 Arthur will point the gun to his head and we'll get a shot of his face doing a couple of anxious expressions, finally R2 will fire the gun and decide if you survive the round or LOSE. If Arthur wins he gets the other guys's stuff. If the other guy wins he takes yo' sh*t.

What cost $150,000 in 1899 would cost $4,483,286.64 Today. Not a bad score.

The GTA Online economy inflated in 5 years by the same that the real world economy inflated in 120 years

Yeah i did a bad job of explaining it maybe..the dollar had more value before and therefore $150,000 heist might not seem like much to us today is what i meant. Not that R literally toned down the amount of money we'll get from robberies  That's why i tied in the 1 dollar poker we saw in Gameplay 1 because back then that was a fair amount of money, hence why they are betting in cents instead of dollars.

5 hours of hope

[Emmi]

Well, IF anything we'll get a tease today BUT I doubt it. They won't just drop the video outta nowhere!

[MVP]

The Gameplay series have already been announced, they're not going to make an announcement for another video. We already know that theres another video coming because it was announced in the last video.

It’s ok to be hopeful but can we please not have a countdown?

LMAO for 2 years every Tuesday or Thursday there's been a countdown.

 

Most of the time I had the same thought but now...its gonna happen no matter what. Let people get excited, even if most of the time it leads to disappointment.

 

Although personally today I feel something is coming.

I literally said it’s alright to be hopeful. All I’m saying is it’d be nice to avoid a half-dozen pages of a few numbers counting down to a moment that may never come. 

[Mostly_Red]

Yeah, i don't think an announcement for a new trailer is needed, since the gameplay series has already begun

 

 

Spider-Man in September, RDR 2 in October. What a time to be alive

[Emmi]

R* is so unpredictable ... they constantly switch times when they release RDR2 news, heck they could have even scrapped the 2nd gameplay video alltogether ... just as the V story mode dlc's never happened! There's only ONE thing we can be sure of ... RDR2's out October 26th.

[GRANDHEIST]

Announcement is probable, because they want as much eyes as possible when it drops to make it viral

 

So does that mean the crappy Dutch Proclamation tweet is ALL we get this week...  0__0

[Doomageddon666]

I have my classes afternoon this week so I wont be able to see the trailer when it comes out here in 5 p.m., if it does happen today anyway...
