Things I would like in RDR2 Online

[HanSoloYolo]

 

I am not going to bash the game, I am just going to list some things that I would like to see on RDR2 Online sooner rather than later. 

 

Please feel free to list the things you would like to see, too!

 

• I would like the Poker & Blackjack tables to open up asap!  This will add a lot of fun to Online and give players something to do with their hard earned cash!
• I would like more online story missions.  RDR2 Online has the potential to be the Wild West version of World of Warcraft, so get crackin!
• I think it would be cool if a player who murders another player became red to all and maybe even became permanently Red, unable to go into towns.  R* can add outlaw cities for murders, theives, and outlaws to access store-fronts.  I am thinking of a PvP system very similar to Ultima Online.  In Ultima Online, if you murder 5 or more players then you are outlawed from towns - you can still go to towns but the town guards attack you on sight.  Ultima also has "Outlaw" cities dedicated to murderers and outlaws, there are no police or guards in outlaw towns.  Many "Good" players go to these outlaw towns hunting for a fight.
• I would like to be able to select specific game modes in Quick-Join matchmaking.  I really like Hostile Territory and Team Deathmatch, but highly dislike Most Wanted and Name Your Weapon.  Most Wanted ruins my fun and a lot of times I decide to go back to Free Roam because that game mode disgusts me so much, then I get bored and play another game.
• Duels would be cool.  Being able to start a duel with another player would be a ton of fun.  (But this can be a last priority.)
• A Bounty System for PvP.  Murderers and Outlaws can have Bounties placed on them by other players.  R* had a system like this in GTA, it would be great for RDR2!  Another idea is to have players bounties automatically increase as they kill other players.
• Attack & Defend style game modes for PvP Matchmaking.  Hostile Territory is OK, but something similar to BF3 & BF4 "Rush" mode would be the best!   RDR2 Gold Rush Mode!  One team defends, one team attacks.  Tits.
• Rustle Horses - I would like to be able to rustle and sell horses or keep a wild horse.
• Different Stranger Missions.  I want to rob BANKS!!   Even if I was only allowed to do it once a day, that would make me happy!
• Ability to rob stores or add extra stores that can be robbed if you do not want to allow players to rob general stores.  Allow us to rob "side-businesses".
• Allow players to setup their own gang hide-out in a fort or a place of their choosing.  Players could purchase a number of guards or NPC gang-members to defend it while they are offline.  Players can purchase upgraded gear for their NPC guards and can choose which guards they want to defend their base (shotgun dudes, dual weilders for extra cost, etc)  Your character would be the NPC boss.  If you have multiple Player members in your gang, each member will become a "sub-boss npc".   +Enemy players can attack player-made hideouts for nice loots!

 

 

 

Did I miss anything?

 

What would you like to see on RDR2 Online?

[Gallows]

Yes you missed Freeaim lobbies. The game is getting so stale and boring in PvP with the lock on.

I halfway agree with you.  I dont know if I would like to completely do away with free aim, but I would like it to be tweaked.  If someone is in full sprint or performing dodges, then they should be nearly impossible to shoot - even with auto-aim.

 

So I will add:

 

• Tweak Auto-Aim to make PvP more competitive.

 

 

What about the things I listed, would you like to see most of those implemented?

Any other ideas to provide R* with?

OH!   One BIG thing I would like to see is a Trade System.

 

If they could setup an "Auction House" of sorts and let players sell & trade their goods for crafting, that would be fantastic!  I would totally buy herbs off other players!

 

So sorry, but I also remembered that currently Gangs or Squads do not stay on the same team during online matchmaking.

Gang members should definitely be allowed to stay on the same team!

Freeaim isn’t bad. You can be accurate with it easily - you just can’t reliably hit someone running from cover to cover if you only see him a split second. They can keep the lock on, I just want hardcore lobbies like the original with freeaim and no player blips except briefly when shooting a gun.

 

But yeah, player to player trading would be brilliant, if they can find some way to make i work.

You can make an Indian looking character from some of the last faces, but don’t know if any of them are particularly suited to be apache.

Nor are there any outfits for that purpose.

Was trying to put a cool photo in here... but nevermind.  lol

[Piro]

Things they should change:

- Team colors in rdro matches are just terrible right now... Feels like they picked the ugliest shade possible. It just cartoony with those pastel colors... They should make it more realistic and add more options like white/gray/brown

- In Saints Row you can pick different voice actors and change the voice pitch. Why couldn't they do something like that and record 50 random lines for rdronline? Something simple as "sure thing boss", "I have a bad feeling about this", "thank you", "screw you".
The whole mute freak routine got old with gtaonline... 

for dlc ideas? I added my two cents in Red Dead Online: DLC/ADD ON Wishlist Thread

[Lonely-Martin]

Friendly/invite lobbies.

 

Genuine game killer without them. I'm awaiting those and chipping a way a little, but if they don't come soon. Game over.

[Shadowfennekin]

How about custom aim lobby

Like say lock on for PvE, auto aim for PvP

Ahh yes the traditional outfits are missing.

To be fair dude, in friendly sessions aim preference is ok in the same lobby I feel as it's only against players that it puts folk at a disadvantage. 

[Pocket Fox]

-Invite/Friendly/Normal/Hardcore (free-aim) lobbies

-Ability to change appearance (1-5 gold)

-Blackjack/Poker

-Mexican Stand-off at the beginning of DM/TDM

-Get the bag pvp modes from RDR1

-Ability to save, change outfit at any tailor

-Ability to access hotel room for 24 in game hours (Change outfit, boost cores back to 100%)

-Ability to take a bath and clear face and boost cores

-Rebalance team colours

-Let us name our outfits

-Let us have 10 custom outfits (but yes, keep it to 3-4 for those stored on horse)

-Increase stable capacity to 10

-Ability to tame wild horses and sell for xxx cash

-Ability to hijack wagons and sell for xxx cash

-Allow us to choose to spawn into free roam at our campsite

-R* Editor

 

That covers basic, easy to do stuff. Now for the big ones.

 

-Purchasable property

-Robbable trains

-Bank robbery missions (story/stranger)

-Legendary animal hunts (story/stranger)

[wescolt]

Besides the obvious (different lobbies etc)

 

Pretty much all the things they left out from SP.

Eating in town

Baths

Room Rentals

Trapper

Legendary Hunts

Robberies 

More stranger missions

More story missions

Camps need a purpose. 

 

I personally enjoyed going on long side hunts for the trapper and pearson upgrades while running into random stranger missions. All that stuff would seem to slide right into RDO to me, whats the purpose of putting in all that work for my fancy animal hat if no one else can appreciate it?!

 

I know some things would be hard to translate into online, everyone going for same legendary animal. Perhaps these should be turned into mini missions themselves.

I just mean it'll lock onto AI and animals

But you've got to aim to shoot a player

Ahh, my mistake.

[Tampinha85]

I want to be able to wear ONLY the off hand holster. Looks cool this ways. Also more holster options like Hosea's and Dutch's. Even the decease has a cool dual holster... and it adds more variety to player customization. Just let us remove/change the primary holster.

[GramaJohn]

Things I'd like to see--

-Working farm and ranches/Player's Property: Players can buy parcels of land and build it into ranches and farms for various crops and animals. The chore mechanic in RD2 works pretty good, but could use additional options. With crops I'd like to see fish used for fertilizer. With plant crops I'd like to see seeds that can be gathered from plants and planted on the farm for harvest. The plants grown could produce  loot materials as you would find them in the wild + seeds. The viability of the seeds might be a good mechanic.
.
-Safe Zones/Safe Fishing Zones: There should be some, maybe on a player's own property or a community pier or both. Maybe designated whole cities with "no violence zones".  

-More Butchers/Merchants.
 
-Fishing: If a fish of a certain size is caught and gets thrown back, a variety of things could happen. The one I'd like to see is more abundant and bigger fish become available for all players who fish in that area where the fish are caught and released. Fish management basicly. If players have a lake, pond, river or stream on their property, the same can be done there.

-Fishing on player's property- Fish can be brought back to a player's property and stocked in the body of water that is there. They can grow, spawn and be caught.

-Camp: I'm not sure why the camp moves without notice,  but it's annoying. I'd like to see it as close as possible to where I tell it to be. If it's to prevent camping of players, I understand--sort of.

Til Next time

[Commander S]

- INVITE-ONLY SESSIONS! Not worth bothering at the moment - not until R* adds 'em... 
 

- "Skip Intro?" option after character creation, so I can just avoid the bass-ackwards story stuff altogether
 

- "Change Appearance" option at the main menu, so people can fine-tune their characters if needed (free, too - don't charge players for your own clunky creator, R*!)
 

- More clothing/hairstyle options/variety - and little things like better teeth options, FFS!
 

- Better camp functionality - something more like apartments in GTAO (proper tents/covered wagons, maybe?)
 

- A "hide/dismiss Cripps" option of some sort at camp
 

- As much of the interactive, immersive stuff (eating in restaurants, all the minigames, that kind of thing) from single-player as possible
 

- Webley Mk. I!

- Wagons/carriages (I'll take one of them Broughams, plz!)

[HanSoloYolo]

I gotta be honest.  I would like to see just about everything you guys are mentioning.  I can't think of one thing you all listed that I would not want.  I want it all.

 

These are really good suggestions!                      I hope R* looks at this...

In addition:

-Player Auction House?
-Walk on hands emote animation
-Bone handle for knives
-Booby trap items. Such as booby trapping a carcass or pelt. When someone one picks it up, boom.
-Pet: A pet rattlesnake that bite people when the attack the person carrying it. Around neck is good. Neck slot.
-Pollinate certain plants, such as vanilla. Once they are pollinated they will produce a bean which could be used for a variety of things. 
-Eating; at the moment you have to eat 5-10 meals a day to stay at a steady weight. It just seems like a lot.
 

Thanks for your time, til next time.

Get yourself a mic mate, it gives you a ton of voice options. I went with the “Drunk middle age Australian” option but often switch to “Terrible Southern Drawl” Or “Belligerent Scotsman”.

I want a wagon to haul my goods in. I fish a lot catch a lot of channel cats and other giant fish which I have to mount on my horse like any other big game so annoying, needs me a wagon to put this stuff in.  Also want a car not in game but a real one so

And if someone steals your wagon? I know I might like to try it. Easy money
