The Ghost Panther location is Bayou NWA

  Reveal hidden contents

The Nightwater Panther location is south of Rhodes

  Reveal hidden contents

 

Both locations are where the normal Panthers spawn. So it's unlikely that the Ywakta Panther to be the location, but as you've noted the corn stalks, I'm taking a guess that could be the Saint Denis area of Bayou NWA though.

 

Wow, those are handy. So all the panthers will be located in Lemoyne. I’m guessing you found those in the game files? Have you come across any other maps?

There were mentions of Seth in the day one files, he was supposed to be one of the mission givers. Strangely enough, he got cut from the game.

I hardly think we will ever see him again, considering it's about like 2 years now since release and Rockstar never bothered to even process the thought of bringing him back. Although, you never know what sort of plans they have, so there's the possibility that he's reserved for a treasure hunter role.

Isn't the collector considered the "treasure hunter"?

In a way, yes.

But with the collector there isn't really anyone to compete with, and you only find small things like earrings or playing cards as you scavenge around. They could however expand upon it and have you follow clues, trails or even myths and riddles to track down more lucrative treasures. With a 'treasure hunter' role there could be NPC antagonists to deal with - a race against time, so to speak, as you seek out proper treasure. Perhaps your contact could be some kind of archaeological type figure or an antiquarian who'll give you money in exchange for finding these special items. There's a whole bunch of caves in the game world that have gone un-used in online, and I'd love to see them expand on it that way. Perhaps even, you could roll up to an excavation that's underway and fight the NPC's to get to the treasure or something. 

Long story short; collector -is- the "treasure hunter", but its very bare-bones and doesn't have much of 'oomph'.

Maybe. I always, thought of the collector role, as an introduction the treasure hunter role.

 

Collector role: finding lost or discarded  items and selling them to Madam Nazar. Dumpster diving with a gizmo.

 

Treasure hunters: seek legendary items (weapons, trinkets, weapon accessories), treasure hoards and

antique items, requested by prominent citizens, academics and characters from the lore of Red Dead Redemption.

 

IMO

treasure hunter role

what do you think this role will be like? or does this role have another name like the discover role.  could we expect a balloon or airplanes. 

you don't have to answer if you don't have information or you don't want to talk. no one conquers you.

but we look forward to  you when you talk about the next big update and the next role?

[FuturePastNow]

So you envision the Treasure Hunter content as being like bounties or legendary animals- pick up a mission to raid a tomb or something and fight enemies there. That could work. But it would get repetitive after a while, and it's not enough on its own for a role.

[KonigSlayer]

Any info on when are we getting the legendary spawn and such fix patch that we were supposed to get last week? I guess wemight see a patch tomorrow altogether with the weekly update?

rokstar games said that they are working on the bug fix update after the last time they rolled back the update.  I think that the update as you said could come tomorrow or the day after tomorrow will come.

Treasure hunter contact: “I know you spent countless hours looking for this valuable item, you killed countless foes, you had to get through traps, mazes, and solve many many puzzles, in the end there was a grizzly bear, a cougar and wolves guarding this one of a kind treasure that has been lost for thousands of years, a treasure that was only a myth until now, probably the most lucrative and sought after artifacts in history. Best I can do is $5.”

Too good to be true, the bycicle may be a little too over the top as it would be a complete new code... and we know they are prone to screw a lot... other than that, this is what a AAA game deserves. You should send this thing to rockstar rdo mail, this people need to emulate creativity for once.

Yeah thanks. I have sent this idea (along with many others) to R* but i haven't got a reply from them just yet. Btw wasn't the bicycle found in the game files?

[Rokushakubo]

About a year ago I submitted the suggestion of an FBI/X-files type aspect to the game. It probably wouldn't follow the other roles in terms leveling mechanics but would be more of a story/lore element to the game offering trophies that could be placed around camp or in a future property. 

 

SP has UFOs, vampires, time travel, giants, bigfoot, ghosts/ghost trains and lots of other paranormal sh*t that was so cool to experience set against the grounded and realistic world of RDR2. Becoming an apprentice investigator and delving into this stuff would be cool. I do remember in an interview that they wanted to put this supernatural stuff in at some point. Can't wait for that.

2 years later, but at rockstar rhytm plus covid, it have only been 6-7 updates after the beta, thats not too much, there is still a chance.

Everything in this game gets repetitive after a while, especially as rockstar coding is very deterministic. Bounty hunting is grinding at its finest, moonshiner and trader are a very straightforward and sole activity role. If there were interiors in this game, we could also add stealing on wealth people to the treasure hunter. Every role could be possible aside gold seeker for obvious reasons.

Hired as a fixer/henchman for the vampire in Saint Denis. Hunting rivals, protecting the client from vampire hunters, stalking nosey reporters and getting rid of bodies.

I'm assuming she was modeled and used for the photographs we see at the beginning of Online.

 

 

Odd that Seth has Marcel's voice though, surely that would imply they updated him to have temporary dialogue post-Moonshiners?

To further add on, or accompany the evidence in this post, I did some digging and found some audio files of Harriet briefing the character on these new animals when you start a mission. When she briefs you on some of these animals, she references some areas that she will send you to such as Blackwater or Strawberry. Interestingly enough, there are mentions of a bird and a fish that she wants you to track down, however this might be cut content. There are also voice lines in regards to marking new locations on your map (I can't remember if we are already hearing this dialogue in game but I've included them in the video anyway).

 

This took me a very long time to compile and go through, and I'm sure I've missed a few but these are the most notable ones that I can find, or at least I think I haven't heard play in game yet when you speak to her. After listening to her voice lines, I find it weird that she has such a huge hate boner for Gus and she doesn't seem to want to send you after him to kill him, but she sends you to kill some random poachers. Anyway...

 

 

Harriet sure likes to use the word "anyway..."

The first sustained flight didn't occur until 1903, so we definitely won't see planes in RDO unless for some (unlikely) reason Rockstar jumps forward in time. And I highly doubt we'll see the hot air balloon make an appearance but that's just my guess

I really like that idea. If they did a role based around investigating supernatural/paranormal events, I would be all over that. 

 

The supernatural/paranormal element is one of the big things I feel is missing from RDO. That aspect would make the world of RDO more interesting, for sure.

[RS123]

I know many people who are super into the realism aspect of RDR2 and RDO won’t like this idea but I’d love it if they added mythical beasts and they added them like legendary bounties. Beasts such as big foot or zombies or aliens.

honestly, i would love a undead Freeroam with all of those, apart from the regular online..

 

Not just the beasts and zombies everywhere, they would have to change the map, make Fort Mercer a safe hub for players, also Fort Wallace, maybe even the mines in Annesburg and whatnot. That would be sick.

Turn the sky blood red or sickly green.

Have vampire bats terrorise the skies.

Werewolves, vampires and zombies on the prowl, hunting every online player.

f*ck that would be amazing!

They had a red sky and a blood moon on Halloween day last year, it would be nice if they did it for the duration of the Pass, last year I didn't even get to see it.

That would all be amazing. Having a server that is mythological during Halloween would be incredible. I also think during the year if we want to play those legendary bounty style missions for the beasts we should go to a contact that drugs us or something so that it makes sense for the regular lobby in the in-game world. there are so many cool things they could do.

[Caffeination]

I don’t understand this community. Half of you cite the frequent amount of times Rockstar gouged players for in-game properties and all the ridiculous activities associated with them, all while the other half start howling and jumping with excitement.

 

What I know is that the entire storyline with Mrs. LeClerk and Horly MUST continue. Who the hell cares about Harriet or Gus or any other character made to siphon gold and money out of players?

Any chance of them extending this weeks specials due to last week's fiasco? Or due to the Legendary Animal drip feed schedule we will see new tunables tonight?

It still has plenty of opportunity to be more enticing, I for one enjoyed the story missions and would love to see more of them, it was something that differed RDO from GTAO.

What confused me the most were the people who were furious at the lack of horse masks in the recent update, and then the other half hate them with a passion and think they look awful. Both opinions have intertwined in the forums and I'm left scratching my head. I guess every player here wants and expects different things.
