Super pissed. Fairly sure at least some of those clothing items will cost gold. My bet is on the rattlesnake hat at the very least. As for the guns, I'm fairly sure Rockstar won't lock it behind their premium money, after all, that'd invoke a ton of people picking up their torches and pitchforks for locking powerful weapons behind gold in a game that is not F2P in the first place. People still have that salty taste in their mouth after the whole Battlefront 2 thing with EA. 25 minutes ago, wehweh01 said: I'm staying hopeful that we don't get businesses like we did in GTAO. I liked them but I just don't want them here. This game needs something unique. What exactly? I dunno. I think they already confirmed businesses for RDO, specially considering they said in interviews they're taking GTAO DLCs such as Gunrunning and whatnot as base for the game. Right now, they're just adding the basics to RDO in a desperate attempt to glue everything together with gum and spit so the fanbase doesn't completely vanish. I'd expect a big DLC related to businesses by the second semester of the year, but don't cross your fingers. I really would dislike seeing this game go down the exact same path as GTAO by adding businesses and whatnot. I quit GTAO and migrated to RDO because it has so much potential to be a much less toxic and something much more unique. There's a lot of original things they could do with the wild west setting to make RDO differ from other games and that's what I'm hoping Rockstar will do.

areyouchappin Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I personally believe Red Dead Online has gotten worse with each update that has been released. Back when they added the Gold Bar Store to a fking Beta, I knew Red Dead Online had a limited amount of life. I tried to remain hopeful since then but R* makes it way too difficult to trust them or their "plan."

I'd expect a big DLC related to businesses by the second semester of the year, but don't cross your fingers. Yeah but like GTAO nothing will be easy or come without risks. I'd bet we'll never be able to prospect or mine for gold. That would be too easy and lucrative. But I can see them offering players businesses with significant risk, involving difficult tasks. We're likely to see a Wells Fargo-style stagecoach business, for example, requiring players to safeguard payroll deliveries and what not, like we see in the game now but on a bigger level. Then you'd have to hire other players to guard your deliveries. I wish R* would deviate from what they've done in GTA instead of copying & pasting the established formula onto a 19th century game model. But from what I've seen, no way. Nothing original or novel in this game whatsoever: it's GTA all over again, with fewer players, and fewer (and less effective) weapons & vehicles. I'm disappointed but hardly surprised, they're taking the path of least resistance: why take a chance with something innovative -- that requires more work -- when they could go with what has worked for them already, with less work? Problem is, this product isn't even a good copy/paste job. We have fewer options (no separate lobbies); less content than the original GTA game had at the same juncture; less customization (e.g. we could customize cars in various ways yet all horses of various breeds are the same exact appearance and color); far fewer weapons than they actually had in 1890s America (knives, axes, gun models); no hotel rooms or cabins in which to spawn and prepare ourselves; too few options of hair/facial hair styles; and as my wife says, not nearly enough options for females. GTAO was better...hell, you could rob stores and steal/sell cars! In RDO, you can't do either: you can rob an NPC for 8 cents, gimme a break. GTAO was at least better than this game is, in all kinds of ways. So if they're going to make this a copy/paste of GTA onto the Wild West, they should up their game.

The thing I like about RDO over GTAO is that you're much more grounded into the world by things like herb scavenging, hunting, cooking/crafting which makes it unique compared to GTAO. I'd like to see them expand on that and they kind of are with elements of the upcoming update, i.e the fishing competitions. Throw in things like poker/dominoes, camp upgrades via hunting, legendary hunts, wardrobe upgrades via hunting etc and I'll be happy. I'd also like to see RDO variants of things like 'hasta la vista' from GTAO which was just wacky and fun af. Regarding the requested lobbies, I don't think we'll be getting them and I don't really care if we don't.

I have friends who I‘ve met ingame that play regularly too, so I‘m not that often alone. RDR can‘t account for your friends boredom in the game, compared to gta. It is really not surprising at all that Rdr aims at a different target group. Boozey St John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Rosenthal Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I want to see less of player-owned businesses and more of PvP bounty hunting, stage coach robbing (like how it worked with the security vans in GTAO) - emergent opportunities, store robberies, gambling.. The fishing challenges sound alright but I’ve had issues getting fish to spawn in recently, soooo... But anyway, I hope they follow it up with herb picking and hunting challenges too. My excitement level over the state of RDO at the moment is a solid 5/10. methcraft, Amy Vinewood, Assblaster and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'm supposed to imagine RDO being GTA, well no imagination needed. RDO is obviously following the GTA playbook. If GTA with simplified deathmatch weapons and horses is different enough for you, well, congrats. And eventually, the weapons won't be so simple, becoming more like GTA. Already a "high capacity" repeater. GTA in the Old West. No imagination needed for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
