This is probably the first day that has made me nervous when it comes to spoilers, and it will just get worse and worse until the 26th. Have to say I should've prepared better.

 

I read the biggest news though, and I LOVE what they are doing with New Austin and Nuevo Paraiso. It makes it so much more exciting going into a game where you haven't seen glimpses of all the states.

 

 

 

 

As soon as the game goes gold though some people say it already has all hell will break loose.

The game has gone gold on Monday afternoon so...

Break into every warehouse in your area to find a copy.

This one looks good for sure, but still too strong sun rays for my taste and as in many pics we have seen, everything looks kinda foggy and it's hard to see clear. Maybe the shots are just mostly to showcase the different kind of weather effects in the game and therefore most of them have extreme lighting effects. 

 

You do realize that bank photo is edited, and that's not how it will really look

Also fixed the links in the red rules box, they directed to archive.org links because I had to copy it from an archived page after today's topic splits.

Tough weeks ahead gentlemen. I want to stay away as to not spoil myself but I think I'll lack the willpower. Hopefully I can avoid any major spoilers. I have seen today's and I honestly don't see it as a spoiler. Any educated man could've made that guess. I wish you all the best of luck. It's gonna be a war zone out there.

Wait, was there an announcement that the game went gold???

[Hugoat]

All mechanics are presented perfectly according to today's previews. No insistent and annoying tutorials, everything is presented dynamically.

If there’s a church of st Denis in game, I’m burning it down.

Dude we should totally make this a thing in RDO!! A renegade gang which is known for burning churches and terrorizing the masses!!

[¡MAYDAY!]

What happened with the church?

I just realized Micah Bell rides a Dark Horse. His has blue eyes instead of red though.

Kinda know what you mean given those screens. Tbh I can't recall seeing that first pic.. Is that a still from the gameplay vid? 

So technically it's the sun rays/weather effects there may be an issue with.  

Which if too overpowering It could get annoying aiming at 'sillouete's' as opposed to 'enimies'. But yeah could just be v making the most of the extreme weather. 

 

I watched the gameplay vid in slo-mo and noticed how nice the light wraps round things and just falls on it so sweetly. 

When Arthur is sprung upon by 3 dudes as the explosion happens and he takes cover. I thought the the light sources around cast amazingly. (On the barrels rims for example ) 

And the scene where it cuts to Arthur dual wielding. The way his face lights up with each shot is crackin. 

Then the depth of the shadows is smooth. Even on holsters /overcoats cast lovely shadows on the shirt underneath. 

 

 

Just something about it. Looks like some achievement. 

I'd recommend dloading it and watching it in slo mo with Vlc. (maybe you have already!)

this forum has become a god forsaken outpost. 

 

I don't know where to turn. 

 

Spoilers everywhere. 

 

I should really go dark.

 

It's a sad sign of the state of humanity that the church burned down. 

 

It's a symbol of the times

[Ol' Stinky Pete]

Random thing I've noticed with the stuff so far we've seen with towns...  (the muddy settlements).. is the ground isnt FLAT. It's hilly, bumpy and winds and twists. Covered in dung. 

Very natural. 

 

Looking at this and thinking about riding into towns in RDR it seems 'ssssoooo Ps1' now or some sh!t.

Back to your church lol.

 

I will just have to search on my own

To anyone still interested on the pre-download dates for Xbox...I reached out to their support and they told me around 1-2 weeks before, which at the moment is understandable as the games still a few weeks away.

I haven't been on here since yesterday early morning. Been reading it went to high hell around here. Usually those newer troll spoiler members that come here and ruin the nice thing. Must be pretty hard for our Mods patrolling the streets of this thread. Some people just dont get or understand why go and do this to a certain group or community. For fame, for sh*ts & giggles?? what? their parents dont pay attention to them. Seems like they need it.

 

 

Anyways, whatever comes out friday for variety will probably be rehashed stuff based on the GP trailer 2. I can't wait to see mexico if they said its true.

That's so cool. John rides the War Horse, from RDR1 too (idk if this is common knowledge).

[Cutter De Blanc]

I can't help but laugh a little everytime I see those three riding around on those big tough ass stallions and Arthur riding around on this tiny ass little horse

[NarcisoLovesAk47]

Pretty sure that's not the Mexican flag. That scene is from the town of Rhodes scene seen on the leaked map, so it's in America.

At first I wasn't too excited for this game but now the more I see of it the more hyped I'm getting.
