Yeah, after reading about Gold Nuggets and seeing the price of guns, it's a hard 'pass' for me. 

 

It's either pay or grind, boys. I did that with GTAO and it just sapped the fun right out of it. To each their own.........

Can you explain a bit about this to me? or summarise it

Sounds like GTAO VIP system where you need to have 1,000,000 GTA$ to register as one, invite other players and play certain missions.

Now I'm thinking this will be much more like GTAO than I've anticipated.

Do you start with 0 cash? Guns? Have a free camp or just start in the wild?

You start with a carbine, a Cattleman revolver and a free camp, yes. So there's that at least lol.

You can't pick up guns from dead enemies, you'll actually have to buy them all I think lol.

 

Also f*cking O'Driscolls already messing with me in freeroam. 

 

 

 

@Pocket Fox I am not sure, I'll check the stables again in a bit.

I’m guessing that they’re using a second currency mostly for gambling? So you can gamble without the ability to spend your real money?

Gold Bars = premium currency. So far I have only seen cosmetic stuff purchasable for that currency, didn't look like you could buy guns with  it. Horse insurance is like $75 apparently, or probable some gold bars. No idea how much real world cash 1 gold bar costs just yet.

What's the money system like?

 

Do you get 25c for a hour mission? can you loot dead people for money?

 

Do you lose money when you die?

Some clothes can only be bought with Gold Bars, such at the Short Stovepipe Top Hat.



What the f*ck where they thinking? 

 

 

I'm going to play another story mission in a bit and see the payout. The last one from the intro gave me less than 2$.

Still not sure what time frame online takes place in regarding the main story.  But I can confirm that...

 

[Epilogue Spoilers]

Spoiler

John's ranch at Beecher's Hope is not yet built in RDO.

At least I got some Special Outfits for free. Not sure if they're the same dresses from the "Bonus Outfits" included in the Ultimate Edition though, since what I got doesn't look like the dress in the prerelease screenshot at all lol. Maybe it's beause I've done something particular in SP? We'll see.

 

Also nice I just got disconnected.

- does the world feel alive as single player?

 

- can you interact with other players using the NPC interaction?

 

- any PvE lobby? free aim lobby??

Bit early to freak out over prices, we have no idea what money making in the game is like. We aren't going to be earning a ton of money day 1 and we're not expected to own the best guns day 1 either.

 

If cosmetics are the only thing purchasable for the Gold bars that's potentially a great move IMO.

The world is definitely as good as in SP. Also looks like there are random events too, since I recently got attacked by some O'Driscolls members while travelling to Blackwater.

I didn't get far enough before being disconnected to see other players in free roam.  But the L2 lock-on interaction allows character emotes, like waving or finger guns.

 

So far I haven't gotten a lobby choice, but I also haven't finished the tutorial.  I would LOVE a free-aim lobby option.

Yea if anyone can figure out if there's PvE/private sessions that'd be good.

Saw a few minutes from the stream and npc density is toned down quite a bit, so definitely not so alive as SP...

TBH not so excited any more, but we will see soon enough...

The world does feel a bit emptier though, fewer carts and horses on the road.

 

1899 inflation is gone and the most expensive guns are in the thousands.

 

No voices, but you can customize your whistle and there are emotes.

 

No aim lobby segregation.

 

You have work hard to make a good looking character, the defaults are ugly.

Also there is a super terrible horse that you can call permanently, should your good horse meet it's early demise.  It's called dirty nag or something like that.

From watching some live game play, it's just a slightly tweaked, reskinned GTA Online.

 

Seriously. You can buy whatever you want at any time via a catalogue you carry around with you, so anyone can replish ammo, items, weapons, at any time. then collect at your local Wal-Mart pickup general store. Still convoluted plausibility.

 

Horse dies while stealing them with friends? It's "mission failed", restart from "checkpoint". Mini-heists anyone?

 

Just lost even more interest for this game. Rockstar has ZERO clues about online immersion.
