PHILIP CARLIER: SECLUDED SWAMP-DWELLER REQUESTED DEAD OR ALIVE (October 22nd)

[Boozey St John]

It's easier to go around and stealth kill the night folk first before tracking down Philip. That way, you can only worry about the Gators. 

 

One shot to the face kills them instantly.

Really what's most disappointing about this is that they could have released the Undead Nightmare horses.... inb4 'muh immersion!' posts

I really want War

[AStiffBreeze]

I’m all for Halloween themed stuff, but it works best if they take the Christmas approach from GTA: make it free, and only useable during the event period. So at Halloween you have people running around in creepy masks, and then afterwards it’s back to normal.

Don't kill me but..............I actually like this bounty. I don't know who voices Philip Carlier, but he sounds familiar and he has an interesting character. Overall I like the atmosphere of this bounty especially at night. Hopefully when this one is done they can bring this one back around

[Viewbob]

meh, bounty is fun but wayyyy too easy, not enough night folk charging me, 

 

as for the masks they are just too colourful for me, only a couple that are normal colours

It's kooky and I dig it. Nice change of pace. Also, outstanding voice acting.

Will have to give it a go after work. The notion of Cassie tripping balls with a cache of dynamite kinda takes me back to the days of Oblivion and that little oopsie at Waters' Edge on behalf of the Blackwood Company. I half expect my character to make her way back to Lagras afterwards to find every civilian dead from her rampage.

I like this bounty, the drugged part was unexpected and freaky. Not knowing where the attack was coming from till the last moment.

Then the actual hunt, I managed to take out the Gator pretty quick and it never returned. Two knives to kill two guards on an island with a row boat, took the boat to the area the bounty was hiding.

I chased him down, hog tied him and throw him in the boat, and was off before anyone else noticed.

 

I like that stealth was actual an effective was to play it.

Anyone else shooting the giant animals between tackles in the beginning?

[Danish Crusader]

This was surprisingly easy... Up until the part where I got stabbed and eaten back to back.

Damn nightfolk just would not die and neither did the Alligator. That is the punishment I get for not just riding away and trying to loot as much as possible =P

 

The target hitbox of the target while under the influence of that cauldron thing leaves much to be desired though.

It reminded me of Batman: Arkham Asylum.

 

Sneaking around and just using the bow was fun for ones but the end when a lot off gators attacked was so lazy from R* side!

But if should put all of these bountys on a list this will be number one cause how different it is!

[Slonitram]

Didn't expect this bounty to go full Far Cry mode in the beginning. Was fun the first and second time, but after three stars, it does get boring and rather repetitive. Phil did give me a good scare though when I was playing in first person and I turned around to see him right up in my face.

 

Pretty appropiate bounty for Halloween.

[Ring Dang Do]

I liked this bounty and especially how rockstar used the nightfolk for Halloween, which is what I was hoping they would do. Also looks like rockstar are trying to change it up to keep us entertained which is good.

 

The bounty himself seems pretty average and didn't cause any trouble at all. In the dream scene I didn’t move at all and he just kept appearing in exactly the same area which made it really easy, not sure if that was a one off or if it works like that every time?

 

Only done up to 3 stars so far and haven't had any trouble, I can imagine it will get difficult though on the 5 star when you can’t see the gators and night folk on the minimap at the end when they rush you.

 

Not too keen on the masks, the odd pig mask is fine but all those gta heist looking ones are a bit ridiculous. Someone posted a picture of people from that time period wearing some of the masks and in the picture it’s children wearing the masks which says it all. 
 

Just glad the masks are not going to be purchasable after Halloween and you can’t wear a hat with them either. Reddit is already full of everyone doing the joker and red devil posts.

So.... I thought this bounty was absolutely trash.

 

Like one person said, our toon is really just riding up on this guy? In the damn swamps huh? Even after he TELLS you who he is, and you still walk up. Crap writing and planning for a forced drug part that bout made me quit the bounty all together. I hate 'drugged' scenes with a passion. Mostly cause the situation it happens with is straight crap you see coming from a mile away but you're always railroaded into them.

 

After that, I was happy to find some normal play. Stealth kill a few people, find out the gators chase you forever. Tracked him down, hogtied, then took him right off to jail. But, having gators spawn in the middle of the road for the swarm of enemies just ended up making me decide to not bother with this LB beyond the one star this week. Whole thing felt lazy.

I'm with you on this, I do like this bounty a lot for some reason. Philip makes me laugh during the ride to the jail... I have a soft spot for 'em, maybe because I'm just one bad decision away from becoming like him.

That part killed one of the best LB! To Bad there was no cool end scene!

[Stupidis]

Where has PC spawned for you? Did my 3rd today and all of the times (not 100 on the first one though) he has spawned on one of the small islands in the swamp. Next to another island with two night people.

 

Found that the best tactics was coming from the east. Killing a few enemies on each side of the water. Then coming in from the north on horseback and catching him with the bolas. Quick tie, up on the horse and ride away.

Weird Legendary Bounty. The idea was excellent, the execution was terrible. Why go to all that trouble of making the effects if you are gonna just disable them a minute after the cutscene and make it a generic Bounty?

Why make the guy have an instant kill machete and yet he's an illusion? They should have made the enemies animals moving like humans, imagine a Alligator running at you on its hind legs or a Nite Folk crawling on all fours like a f*cking spider. If you are gonna have us hallucinating then its an excuse to f*cking go mad and blame it on the drugs.

That would have been dope to see. Missed Opportunity.

Right? Imagine sneaking past a shack and seeing a skinned Deer stood on its hind legs smoking a cigarette or charging out of the water with no radar dot screaming at you with a human voice. f*cking horrifying.

So did this guy rape us or something? Asking the real important questions lol

I wouldn't be surprised if he did. Gets lonely in the swamp after so many years. 

 

Wait, is that the same guy who rapes us in story mode?

Raped you probably. I took my time exploring and learned about him before I went near the swamps. Burned him and his house to the ground, my asshole remains exit only.

Don't knock it, if you ain't tried it!

 

Go back as John and he says "That weren't so bad."

Really? I always wondered if Johns anger and bravado was all an act.

I kid you not, if you allow John to get raped and you go back, John says- "That weren't so bad." 

 

Exact quote... Explains his walk.
