Can we get the ability drop a campfire where ever we want? It would be nice to have a fire in the snowy North or have somewhere convenient to cook meat when hunting.

 

Just have it restore Cores while you are near it.

I still don't get why there isn't at least one camp spawn site up in Grizzlies West. Maybe because if we had a camp there we could ignore cold weather clothing? But hot weather drains our cores too if we don't dress appropriately and there are plenty of camp spawn sites in the hot weather regions.

Because it was not thought out. It seems to me that the North was a last minute addition to SP and MP.

Wishful thinking, but maybe it's because each area, of which we now think should have been much better exploited, are kept 'empty' to be filled up each update.

Nah, it's probably lazy coding...

Pretty much all of the Grizzlies is completely useless in online, there's maybe two or three things there at most, it sucks really.

 

Hoping the new roles gives us reason to go up there, finding bounties hiding out in the mountains, finding rare treasures etc.

Why do you need invite only lobbies? People don't grief as much anymore. 

 

Personal preference I guess? I still do get griefed quite frequently. Although I don't die nearly as often, its still annoying to have someone trying to attack you when you just want to enjoy walking in a town or wandering the wilderness. Its really one of those things that isn't a necessity, but it seems like it would be easy to implement, so why not?

whoever the guy is that asked why we need private lobbies needs to get walloped in the head. here’s hoping they release info tomorrow and it drops on tuesday

Seems pretty excessive of a reaction to wish harm on someone for asking something...

do...do you actually believe i wish him to be beaten upside the head? the sentiment was more like “why do we need private lobbies? why DON’T we need private lobbies?” please don’t be this way.

Fair enough, my bad . In my defense you can never tell on the internet.

 

Although a bit of advice for a new member, you may want to use "/s" to indicate you aren't being serious in the future.

Here hoping info drops tomorrow and update Tuesday

The silliest thing to me is gtao has 20 save able outfits.

 

Rdo game that is newer and uses same engine and is coming up to a year after release has 3 save outfits. 

 

Just from a business standpoint they work on new clothing all the time and release that. But dont allow us to save more outfits? I am okay with storing only 3 on a horse maybe make big saddlebags matter more and give us 5 on a horse. But why limit the entire save able outfits to 3? Playing cowboy dress up is clearly one the biggest draws this game has to people you can tell from post your character thread and every other post on reddit showing off how people dress Arthur or their online character. More outfits to save means more people spending money on clothing to save in cool outfits which means more micro transactions and more money for rockstar.

 

Yet almost a year later still just 3 save slots. Seems silly to me. Same concept with gtao worked on my friends when we went from owning 1 garage to allowed to own 2 garages friends spent money on shark cards to add more fancy cars to garage. That's money in the bank for rockstar and all they gotta do is allocate a little storage space to save more outfits and profit.

 

Also gtao has free aim servers yet a game that would benefit even more from free aim because wild west shootouts weren't as deadly as modern shoot outs guns weren't as accurate lower rof everything about old west screams free aim compared to gtao and yet we dont get free aim servers. We get a bandaid defensive mode or high level card that work for few seconds... I played entire first play through single player in free aim and game was fantastic immersive fun. Tried 2nd play through with auto aim and its boring way to easy and less immersive less rewarding overall weak compared to experience with free aim.

 

Why does a game like 7 years old have more options to enjoy it then a newer game that has even more incentive to do free aim.

 

Read up on old west shootouts guys standing feet away from each other missing it works having free aim in rdo and since defensive was added I hope people try to shoot me cause free aim free roam fights are fun. Auto aim fights arnt and I generally win the auto aim fights it's still not rewarding or fun.

 

We need free aim servers and game modes, we need more save outfits.

Well said. To me this is a classic example of when realism takes priority over fun and convenience, and the result is not optimal. Definitely gonna be scouring the patch notes to see if anything was done to remedy this.

While certainly not the best solution, at least for now, defensive mode does mean you will be free-aiming players and they can't auto-aim you. Its one of the main reasons I use defensive mode, kinda like a band-aid until the real solution hopefully is implemented.

yeah, but imagine this: an improved wardrobe for like 800$

that sounds fun, right? at this point everyone wants to save more outfits, wait a little longer (at least until the upcoming update) and then release it with an absurd price tag, maybe some players gonna buy some gold to get it

 

about free aim lobbies I'm absolutely with you man, I'd LOVE to play rdo with free aim, the best I can do for now is going defensive and do some shooting when I'm ambushed or find a hideout, I love the gunfights in rdr2 but in rdo I barely have any chance to enjoy it sadly

[VercettiGuy]

The saving outfits thing doesn't even work for me. They always somehow get deleted. Also, one of them is always the current outfit?

 

I really don't get it.

[AStiffBreeze]

Since defensive mode came along I think I've only had two people ever try to grief me, and they were incredibly low level players who clearly had no idea what they were doing - and soon learned the error of their ways. For the most part people seem very friendly when I wave at them.

 

More outfits slots are a must if rockstar actually expect me to keep buying all of the clothing they keep making.

Update coming tomorrow?  February and May saw their DLCs drop on the third Tuesday of those months which are three months apart and now here we are three months after May with tomorrow being the third Tuesday of this month.  Soooo update tomorrow?  Tez mentioned that GTA Online had a two-week event leading up to the Casino DLC and that the same thing has occured these past two weeks in RDO.  

[joshua969]

Here's hoping.  I just jumped in a couple weeks back and looking forward to it.

[GEИESIS]

If the update doesn't drop tomorrow they better give us a damn good event with some really good bonus.

It could happen but trying to out-guess or predict R* based on previous drop history is like trying to find the end of pi. Hope you're right tho.

Can someone make a pole like: Bountyhunter/Trader/Collector?

 

I think it‘s interesting how many Bountyhunters here are! (for exemple.)

Watch them drip feed the 3 roles 1 at a time

That is the study that needs to be done with these people

Podría suceder, pero tratar de adivinar o predecir R * en función del historial de caídas anterior es como tratar de encontrar el final de pi. Espero que tengas razón.

What is clear is that at the moment there is no 'pattern'. Only with a couple more updates can we begin to predict / intuit how things will do here.

[Waldbear]

@Jason Thank you!

As i’ve said before free-aim if implemented right now will be a sh*t show. It will only work on idiotic NPCs, but if you’re fighting players it will be First-person strafing hell where any shot that hits is luck. We need to see how the movement and aiming gets improved this update that R* announced first

I doubt it too..........but absurdity is not unknown to R*. You got to be prepared for moves like that. More than likely clothing and modes might be apart of the dripfeed instead of roles.

 

I really want to know how all 3 will play out. Right now I'm most interested in the Bounty Hunter role, but that could change once the update drops.

Me too. 

 

I'd really like to know what the long term plan is for each role, I know R* would never outline their long term plans for the roles, I wouldn't expect that, but it would be nice to know all the same.

 

I'm drawn towards the Trader role, as it seems it would suit my play style, but from the interviews that have been given it looks as though that role may end up with our character owning a big business, but after years of businesses in GTAO that doesn't really interest me. 

 

The Bounty Hunter role doesn't interest me initially and thinking about where that could go, with our character ending up as a Sheriff or a Marshal maybe, that doesn't interest me much either.

 

As for the Collector role, I could get into that, but again, what would be the end game? Owning a store? Maybe. But it seems like it could be the one role, out of the initial three, which could keep our character out there, in the wilderness, searching for things, rather than owning a business or having the monotonous (to me) gameplay loop of hunting down fugitives.

 

After some thought I'll probably try to maintain both Trader and Collector roles to start with and see how they develop over a couple of updates before dropping one.

 

Hopefully at least one of the these initial three, and maybe some future roles, will allow our character to stay out in the world, not tied down by some form of business to maintain in the long term.
