So, it seems we cannot rob a bank unless it's a main or a side mission and there were no gas stations to rob back in 1899.

 

Is there anything we can rob without being a mission of some sort?

A stage coach?....A train?...Are all robberies part of a story?

You can rob random NPCs

Game Informer cover reveal is Saturday. EA conference is on the same day.

GameStop in the US and GAME in the UK have the Ultimate edition as a exclusive.

 

Amazon is in a dispute with multiple publishers including Sony and Rockstar so I wouldn't count on them.

So in less than 12 years it came from luxurious vegetations to a desert area with the cactus? 

Could be seasonal - time of year. Might also not be Riley's Charge - just looks like it.

Who the f*ck gonna use the Special edition black horse when you get a monster war horse from preordering?

Maybe you can have a barn type of building and store your horses in their with their trust levels etc,

And then you can decide which horse you wanna get: The war horse would be great for attacking a gang hideout, the dappled black thoroughbred would be great for hunting someone down, take part in a race, or just to traverse faster.

 

Another thing I want to add: Ubisofts Ultimate Editions are actually more consumer-friendly than the editions R* pulled yesterday. Because they actually include a Season Pass with SP content after launch. Rockstars Edition just include some cosmetics, gameplay advantages and 2 side missions, but it's the same price.

[~INDIO~]

When will the game get an M rating?

 

Also, the Nuevo Paraiso outfit looks cool as f*ck! Although I'd probably choose another hat

One of the cards looks like King Foltest from The Witcher 2.

Landon Ricketts is probably the guy on the top left.  Anyway, the cigarette cards has me thinking. What if those are in game collectables and you get them by buying packs of cigarettes. Sort of like in Shenmue with the toy machines.

Not the same area. I would say Old Fort Wallace but that is listed as a settlement. So its probably a landmark. The trees look shot to sh*t so its probably a battlefield. Maybe Erisfield in Scarlet Meadows? The area looks very meadow like, and scarlet is often used as a old literary term for blood. So the region would be called in a literal sense 'Bloody Meadows'.  So its probably a old Civil War battlefield. If the place is called 'Erisfield' then it ties into the Goddess Eris. Who was the Goddess of strife and discord. She is also a Goddess of War in some regards.

 

Either way I cannot wait to explore that place at night.

Sort of. Heavy war horses as a bloodline don't really exist anymore. But draft horses may have a lineage to old war horses. The Percheron is probably the closest living breed to a old heavy war horse.

[Capt.Bojangles]

Here is a Draft Horse.
