War Horse Question

[macajeff]

Hi everyone.

So I pre ordered the game, I'm supposed to get the war horse. Is this for online only or the main game?

I'm playing story and don't have the horse.

Thanks

It's for story mode. You likely have to claim him from the stables or wherever you buy horses at.

I've been to a stable. No sign of it. So far.

Thanks. Paid 150 Aussie dollars. I'll be annoyed for the biggest edition. I'll be annoyed if I haven't gotten the bonus content. Lol

Yeah I'm having the same problem. I paid $160 New Zealand dollars. No special outfit. No cash bonuses. No War Horse. No Dappled Black Horse. No Camp Bonuses. And there's nowhere online that has any information on what the story is either.

Hey I found the horse. It's after you have left the snow, and have a camp established. There will be a mission where Hosea teaches you how to hunt rabbits. At the start of the mission, he tells you he has a plow horse to sell at Valentine. Once you are at the farriers (which isn't available all the time) you have the option of buying other horses. I had the war horse (it's called the Ardennes there) and a black thoroughbred available to buy for $0. Hope these are the right ones ...

I saw that horse. Didn't realise it was the war horse. Thanks. Still no idea where my other bonuses are though.

They should have been clearer about that, although I think I'm still missing at least one free horse. I've found some of the other bonuses. The special talisman that gives you longer tracking, and there are some free weapons available at the general store, which I think came with the special or ultimate editions. 

I've found the outfits as well. At the camp, there's a chest at the foot of the bed to the left of where you shave. If you Press Y, it opens up a whole menu of things, with outfits, the bonus outfit being one of them.

I think I saw it at the general store while looking at the catalogue, but it's also part of the outfit menu. It's on one of the last sub menus. When you select it, it changes the appearance of your boots.

This link had some great info.

In the settings, I don't have the option for camp bonuses and cash though for some reason.
