Any mention of the small camp for quick-saving, wardrobe changing, and fast traveling like in the first game?

You can upgrade your own personal tent for a fast travel option (Easy Allies) and change your clothes in the camp (Sueddeutsche).

 

I haven't found anything in terms of (quick) saving the game yet, can anyone else help?

The guys from Suedeutsche saw how someone got hanged by the law, I think you @BretMaverick777 and some other folks speculated about this recently:

 

"Like GTA, Red Dead Redemption 2 can be quite brutal: From his horse, Morgan watches as a convicted criminal is being hanged. With his colt, he aims at the rope to prevent the execution. But too late, the flap underfoot opens and the rope tightens. Reflexively, Morgan shoots the sheriff instead and gives his horse the spurs. Long live the freedom of the Wild West!"

I screwed up that random encounter so much in RDR.  Maybe I'll be better at it this time around.

Yeah I forgot which preview it was but it's back. In terms of saving, most likely the same. Also in the opening shot of the 2nd trailer we get to see the personal camp in action.

Red Dead Redemption 2 speaking to other games released this year...

[Zoobz]

Finished reading the magazine. 

 

Nothing really new, or at least worth mentioning. Most of it was covered in other previews. 

 

Only really got em for the posters anyway.

Like everyone I am still diggin through all the tiny pieces of information scattered and am completely blown away and overwhelmed.

I was wondering about the new systems and Online...

 

So now that we have this realistic interaction with NPCs, will our characters finally have voices? I wonder if we'll be able to choose from a range of voices.. or if every girl will sound like the same person lol. or even if this system be turned down or off for online like GTAO's removed animals... Really hoping that it's the former.

 

Another thing that got me thinking was the minimap. In that shot in which Arthur kicks the door open and kill some dudes with DeadEye, the map doesn't seem to show any red dots. I wonder if this will extend to how the minimap behaves in online - like, not showing every other player in the world unless it's a friendly or if you spotted them? IMO this would be totally a game changer compared to GTAO. Maybe when someone have a bounty we will see some kind of yellow area where he or she might be instead of pinpointing exactly where he/she is. It would totally add to the immersion. After all there's no Lester to call to get off-radar in the wild west. Being always off the radar would make sense in a western setting.

Sorry guys!

 

Mods feel free to delete my post.

Another outlet saying the map is bigger than GTAV:

 

"In terms of scale, the game world is said to be even bigger than that of GTA V, while Morgan has only one horse available and no jets."

 

Sueddeutsche

I can imagine, as one previewer mentioned that beyond the mountain range he saw far away, the map does not end! 

 

So the map must definitely be bigger than GTA V.

I reckon what we’ve seen is just such a small part of the overall map - I’ve a feeling it’ll be 2-3 times as big as GTA V! 

 

Cant. Forking. Wait.

Someone seriously need to open up a "My Arthur" thread where we can show off our Arthurs, loadout and horses we may have. I want this because we're all very different individuals and i believe some of us can come up with some awesome customization ideas. From what i'm reading/hearing in the previews the level of customization in this game is gonna be insane.

[Tasty_Pasta]

It always felt strange to me that they implemented first person in GTAV at all.  But it seems like the first person will be integral to interacting with the world in RDR2.  I wonder if it was always intended to be in RDR2 from very early in development, and then threw it into GTAV so they could get some real user testing out of it to make it the best possible in RDR2.

Did I read right in the previews that shaving your beard is manual ?  That might make for some nightmarish facial hair scenarios.

[RedDadRedemption]

with the double sided poster is it just sadie and marston in every copy of the magazine or do other magazines have different characters?
