Something happened the other day that was truly unexpected. It really gave extra depth to the game and the NPCs.

I've noticed that the NPCs are a little more "alive" now.

It's an immutable law of any fan forum that the complaint posts will outnumber the compliments by at least 20 to 1.

Especially when what people are complaining about is so visible/recurring within game play; this not a complaint in itself--just an observation.

And the reason we continue to play despite all the faults is because we love the game and know it could be so much better.

 

Praise: there is SO much room for implementing a wide variety of wildly different ideas.

The potential is huge.

It really goes without saying for anyone who's played any length of time, I think that is why we don't all say it very often.

One of my favourite aspects of R* with this game and last, and the GTA franchise too is R*'s attention to those details and the write ups on things. The newspapers in story, the blurbs in the catalogs/car pages etc.

 

Just easy to waste time having a little read and as @IamCourtney said above me, it adds to our game like with what type of reaction we give to bounties based on their crimes wanted for.

I do enjoy how impactful the Melee combat is. Being able to beat NPC's and Bounties that annoy me unconscious instead of killing them is great fun.

 

Had a woman riding in formation last night, she began galloping at light speed the moment I turned up and by the time I had calmed my horse and dispatched her lackeys she was well gone. Took me a while at full hammer to catch up to her and by the time I did and Lasso'd her off the Horse I had more bitch boys turn up.

Then she decided she wanted to fist fight the massive guy with metal studs on his knuckles and metal toe caps on his boots. It didn't end well

Agreed! I kick bounty targets until knocked out so they don't spew irritating insults during the ride.

 

But even outside of bounty hunting, it's very useful.

I plated the butt of my Double Barrel Shotgun in Silver so the last thing they see is my wealth.

I played for the first time in a good handful of months yesterday and maybe I just got lucky but had a ~15 person lobby on PS4 for an hour and a half and managed to see a whole bunch of animals, including Bison that I hunted not far from Blackwater, which to me was incredible as before then I had seen zero Bison outside of SP.  There was a small herd of them at dusk.

 

Nothing was wrong except for a few times when I went to skin or pick up an animal I got a repeating very fast indicator that kept appearing and disappearing.  I was able to skin/pick up both animals but had to move my character and re-approach.  

 

Cautiously optimistic

I see the praise thread is dead lol

 

I am glad they added some new coats to old horses. I bought one of the new Mustangs and it's nice to have horse with excellent stats that looks normal and isn't the same old black Arabian. And I have actually been entertained by bounty hunting for a few days.

Well still im very disappointed with the update.... but some things i actually like

 

-The timer appearing only when you trap the Bounty, i like that, i know some people just go after the Bounty shooting everyone or they prefer to do it faster, but  for me i like to take my time, trying to sneak and kill in stealth mode, and when they detect me i like to do some special kills with the guns, because that kills are very rare with other players when you only aim to the head lol, so for me it makes the BH more interesting and enjoyable

 

-I like when you open the Free mode menu, and the camera change position looking at your character in a better perspective, i know i know very useless for some people lol, but i like it, is good for take pics of your char

 

-Maybe is just me, but no more disconnection problems, i see some lag problems, very similar to the ones that happen in GTO but this time the game don't kick you out, so maybe is good, but i don't know if this applies to other players

 

and that's it lol.... i hope i can see more good things when the snow came....or maybe the next year when they give us a proper update....

Fast travel from the wilderness camp means it now has a purpose other than fulfilling a daily occasionally.

Very useful addition.

Well after a couple of tryings, i definetly love Carmelita bounty, the Sniper, her in the wagon, the location, is kinda difficult but i have  a lot of fun  reaching to the 5 stars and complete it, i hope the next legendary bounty would be as good or maybe better, because Bueau bounty was a little meh for me

It's a nice flexible tactical battle with no timer.

Well done, whoever designed that one, it's not a walkover but it's not tricky with only 1 or 2 ways to do it.

I've done it twice solo, will do it again.

 

===========================

 

On a general note, this game still has too much good in it to drop.

So I was riding a hogtied bounty back to town and he bugged out a little, repeating the phrase "Smelly ol' bitch!" every ten seconds or so (noticeably more frequently than bounties normally comment at you) in the exact same way for a good two or three minutes until it finally gave me the option to hit him; after a solid crack on the noggin with the butt of my shotgun he cries out, with complete sincerity, "What the hell was that for!?" 😆

 

It's hard to do the perfect comedic timing of it justice in text, I wish I'd had the presence of mind to save a clip because I was cracking the hell up. I guess it's a little weird to be praising what's essentially a totally unintentional interaction resulting from a minor scripting malfunction but I think the quality of the performance of even these barely noticed line reads went a long way to making it so funny, and it's the sort of detail that still sets R*'s games apart.

Just last night while I was loitering in the Rhodes post office, a nearby NPC was kind of staring at me, so I put on my bandanna just to p*ss him off.

 

He then exclaims, "Whatever you're thinking about doing, please reconsider it!"

 

Got quite a laugh out of that one. :) Some NPC dialog and responses are clearly designed to be serious; others just for laughs.

Not praise worthy technically because it's just the game working as intended, but...

 

Glad as f*ck that animals are still plentiful as ever. It's hard to imagine there was a time where the whole map was almost totally void of animal life.

The melee mechanics, in this game, never get old. Huge fan of the knock out blow and being tackled by NPC's.

I think I do that tackle a little too much, but it looks so cool!
