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

[TheOriginalGunslinger]

Need more screenshots of Uncle... I don't think Arthur could out drink him tbh.

Man rockstar is not very good with trailers just look at those screenshots and the trailers makes it look like a different game

I wonder if guns will have kickback and Arthur can hurt himself.

[BootyWarrior]

when you thought another delay was coming.

 

[halifaxbboy]

I just noticed/thought of something.. unlike john, arthur has not been wearing gloves in any shots except for the new one aside bill williamson.. even more customization confirmed? They showed the beard, now that shot arthur wears gloves, we know if you lose your hat you have to find it or buy a new one... makes sense

Maybe custom boots, boot spurs, holsters, satchels, bandanas, etc. ??

The guns will have recoil of sorts. But I doubt it will hurt him. Your talking about a guy who's used a gun much of his life. Recoil probably isn't a issue for him.

What if there's realistic elements like in far cry 2? Like guns will jam, you get get diseases, fires will realistically spread

Plus carry a grown buck on one shoulder and can jack grown men up on walls completely off their feet. I'd say he is physically equipped to handle some kickback.

Well we know we can buy hats. I'm hoping for a clothing layer system. But selecting shirt, coat, pants, boots, and hat would be okay. Anything other than how clothing was handled last game.

The first two I doubt. There were some quotes where they discussed smaller animals rotting becoming annoying for the player, so you can preserve them so they last. They've also talked about the gang being able to support its self, it's not a chore you have to do. I think they want the realistic but potentially tedious things to be optional so I can't see gun jamming or diseases being a thing as they could only be mandatory and managing diseases in particular could become very tedious in a 40 or 50 hour playthrough. Gun jamming just doesn't feel great in a shooting game either IMO.

A hardcore mode would be neat. But I'd rather not spend the game in towns getting mercury shots in my urethra for getting gonorrhea.

[Dee-account-with-1kbans]

I'm having memories of grinding pikes basin to level up faster.. The good old days

[BLOOD]

I think any delay will just be two months so a December release

I completely agree with this, I'd love to be able to combine different clothes rather than having a whole outfit, even if there aren't that many components to the clothing I'd like to be able to choose between different elements.

That saloon resembles the Thieves' Landing one.

Its not, its the Valentine saloon. It has the same Barber sign you can see in Trailer 2

It's about striking a balance between realism and fun. The horse feature is neat if handled right. Getting typhoid fever and dying in a bed isn't.

They show someone getting a shoit in a doctors office why would disease be far fetched? you getting a shot for a gun wound?

 

*i know feeding the gang is confirmed but i wonder can we eat playing arthur?

Maybe we can make fur coats with the animals we kill

[Matrelith]

 

 

mfw seeing all the new screenshots

[halifaxbboy]

Imagine riding around on a horse with a fur coat and pimp hat

[BLOOD]

That one cool idea.

That could very well be a way to replenish health after a night of hunting.

[Mirokunite]

You could technically eat in RDR. But I figure eating in RDR2 will be about as fleshed out as eating in GTAV.

They show a lot of things in trailers that aren't features in the game. Imagine having to go to a doctor every time you come out of a firefight, or when you get bitten by a wild animal. It's repetitive and it could become really tedious after the first few times. They could make it easily manageable by allowing you to treat disease on the road but at that point you're asking if there's any point in having diseases as a feature at all. Like Miro said, the trick is striking a balance between realism and fun and diseases are one of those things that leans heavily towards realism so the feature is never really found outside of very realistic survival games.

Can we eat other gang members?

[INFERNO E100]

I don't see why people are saying there must be some massive jump in time due to Johns scars healing.

 

Personally I've been through 15 MASSIVE surgeries in my life from the time I was 4 years old until I was 16 that all left pretty good sized scars on my legs.

 

They don't take all that long to heal maybe a couple months at best before they begin to look "normal" especially if their not all that deep.

 

Also it could just be a design choice thing where the scars are fresh durning the mission where he receives them to put more emphasis on them but then on afterward they look as they always did.

Yes, you can eat other gang members, even yourself...

[INFERNO E100]

 

That background person's arm looks too long for a kid, IMO.

 

Little clearer picture, it does look like the alleged kid's arm is a bit longer., though he's definitely grabbing onto something, and the woman sitting on the chair is looking at him.

Kids got a beard you proles

[BLOOD]

GTA V had Los Santos County, Blaine County, and few towns in between along side Los Santos all in an HD San Andreas now I cannot wait to see how Big Red Dead Redemption 2 map is and the new towns.

[INFERNO E100]

Keep in mind the gold plating on the weapons is likely customization.

It's brass. In the sunlight
