NEW IN RED DEAD ONLINE THIS WEEK (July 2nd)

[Jason]

 

Celebrate Independence this week across the open frontier of Red Dead Online - with bonuses to reward your adventurous spirit. Get 30% bonus cash and XP on all Free Roam Missions alongside generous retail discounts on weapon components and the popular Evans Repeater. Plus new Wheeler, Rawson and Co. Catalogue additions, including the "Respectful Bow" emote – free for a limited time – and more.

 

 

 

As part of this week’s celebratory festivities, merchants are pleased to offer free Gun Oil to ensure all your instruments of peacemaking are in tip-top shape. A weapon’s looks and performance degrade over time from use and exposure to the elements, but a little Gun Oil will make them good as new. Gunslingers and vigilante types alike would also be wise to take advantage of 30% off all weapons components, including Improved Rifling to increase velocity and range, Iron Sights and Scopes for better accuracy, Stocks with various wood grains and Wraps to preserve your weapon from use and weather.

And if you’re in the market for a reliable firearm, you can get the Evans Repeater for 25% off this week.

Patriots can take advantage of 50% off Red, White and Blue bandanas, plus free Red and Blue camp flags, through the 8th of July.

 

 

Not all those who wander are lost. This week, those brave enough to traverse the five states in search of opportunity shall be rewarded handsomely with 30% more RDO$ and XP for all Free Roam Missions. Keep yourself on the straight and narrow pursuing Gunslinger missions with respectable folks like Bonnie MacFarlane or get yourself mixed up in shadier business with Outlaw missions from Black Belle and much more.

 

 

 

The Wheeler, Rawson and Co. Catalogue has a new limited supply item, the warm and woolly Pelt Half Chaps, as well as remaining stock of the Griffith Chaps.

Elsewhere in the catalogue's clothing section, the sturdy Cromwell Hat and the svelte Cabrera Pants are both refined statement pieces that are sure to elevate your wardrobe.

 

 

Put your best foot forward with strangers or make peace with even your most bitter rivals using the Respectful Bow emote, free from the Wheeler, Rawson and Co. Catalogue for this week only.

The 99 free Gun Oil I'll be stocking up on is welcome. I might as well pick up the free emote too. I'm not into the new hat but I might pick up a few pairs of the new pants even though I doubt they'll replace my usual attire of Tuxedo Pants.

[TheLordMarvel]

What pants are those in the first image? The ones the guy in the red shirt is wearing?

 

I thought Gibston pants didn't have full black..

I does, they added it in like a day after the pants became available.

 

Was really hoping for the big update this week, how much longer??

[Jason]

The new hat is poo, new pants are p nice though. Nice to see some returning clothes from the Feb update, hopefully more will come over the next few weeks.

 

Discount on weapon upgrades is.. interesting. Might finally buy one or two upgrades there, I dunno. They're still expensive IMO. Also I took off my iron sites on my Evans a week or so ago for a challenge and I still can't put them back on which is annoying the life out of me every time I go into a gunstore.

 

But yea it's obvious the dripfed is basically all but dried up now but with the GTAO Casino out soonish you'd think the RDO update is still a good month away at least.

[-LN-]

I was hoping that we'd get the Trapper added with yesterday being Canada Day, but I guess that's not happening!

 

Not gonna complain about the free oil and mission bonuses, but I'm not sure how much I'll be playing. I've been feeling kinda burnt out and I want to actually be able to enjoy the new update, whenever it is that we actually get it!

I'm still hoping the Trappers get introduced in the summer update. I have no hope of them having a similar clothing function to SP, but I could see them being involved with the new Trader role in some way.

 

We need the extra locations to sell our hunting spoils regardless of any other features they may or may not have.

Well this sucks! Was hoping something bigger for 4th of July!

Some Revolutionary war inspired weaponry and clothing would've been cool. This would've been the perfect time to release a working version of the flintlock pistol we briefly see in singleplayer.

Is the hat from single player? I'm sure I remember crafting it before but it might just look similar.

 

Coyote hat? I think. 

[Jasmyn]

The new hat looks very good on a female! 

[Lonely-Martin]

Cleanest my guns have been for a while, lol. I usually rely on looting but I ain't no fool.

[Jason]

Yea the free gunoil is nice but I've basically had a full stack of it since launch cause I still make a habit of looting runs now and then. They're just a chill thing to do when you've done yer business for the day. Aint gonna complain about a free stack of 99 though.

[TheLordMarvel]

So i checked the Gibston pants and the ones in the image aren't there. You see, covering the gentleman sausage is all black fabric. But! in game, the black Gibston pants actually have a cream colored fabric underneath. So there's none like that from the photo in game. Future clothing item or maybe I missed it in a preset outfit.

[Winonas]

Free roam mission boost should push me over Level 100 this week which is cool. Glad to have free anything and Gun Oil is always needed. Will also pick up my 2nd LeMat and enjoy cheaper upgrades

for it. Happy Fourth of July week everyone

[Norman_Greige]

And did I just spend a ton of loot on weapon components not two days ago? Why yes, yes I did.

 

Grabbing the gun oil and emote, though.

This would be great! I can't imagine how they'll do the Trader role without the Trapper, but we definitely need someone or something out there to take the pelts and parts off our hands though. I've been having issues with the carcasses going from 3 stars to 1, and someone suggested that it was because I was using Quick Travel to Rhodes or Saint Denis. That seems about right; it's just such a long trip each time when you're all the way up there and quickly max out on what you're able to carry.

Or uniforms from the war against the brittish!

[Takeshi Kitano]

If i remember correctly, some times ago, many people said there was a bug (or whatever it is considered), that every purchase on website "Social Club - The Wheeler, Rawson and Co. Catalogue" like clothes, guns etc would not appear in game, but, in any case, you would have lost the money anyway, (of course) because you spent them on those items..

 

My question is: Did they patched that "thing"? It's safe now? Since i'm not able to play the game, i would have liked to buy those Free and Not items from their Social Club, but, if it is still bugged, well.. i prefer to keep my money.

 

 

Thanks in advance for any clarification.

[ALifeOfMisery]

@Takeshi KitanoI can't give a definitive "yes, it's safe", but I've used website to purchase quite a few things and I've always received the items.

Would have loved to have seen a Musket added! I admit, I don't really know that much about guns, but I still enjoy the one that we have in GTAO; it seems like it would fit in so much better in this game!

I am very shocked that they didn't release a musket as a rare/limited time item. Even some Civil War era weaponry, sans the cannon.

 

Seems like a wasted opportunity.

They are from the Zacateca outfit I think.

[Failed Again]

I've had limited experience with the Mauser, but I believe it has a faster firing rate and larger ammo capacity. I believe the Volcanic inflicts a bit more damage overall.

 

The Volcanic is more affordable. I got both of mine for free, but I think now they're less than half the price of a Mauser. If you're just going to be using it for the daily challenges, it may be more beneficial to opt for the Volcanic. If you have explosive rounds pamphlet unlocked and bought, that will make them all the more easier to complete.

[Pocket Fox]

Free Red and Blue camp flags.

 

Still not worth the buy.

[Jason]

Camp flags, those $50 flags that you never, ever see and even if you're in your camp you'll probably take a few seconds to find, maybe even longer depending on the camp location.

 

Absolutely pointless camp cosmetic lol

[RyuNova]

A bonus on Free Roam mission? Hmmmmm...still nothing I wanna buy but I might as well stock up on cash for the update.

Hmm, did you buy the Zacateca outfit? I don't have those on the list.

 

These are the ones i have on the list. They seem to be connected to the Z outfit. Not sure tho.
