Red Dead Online: The Naturalist Update

Recommended Posts

Are the horses cool? I could care less about the animals and the point of the role, I just want to know if getting this is going to be worth spending my gold and trying to fight my way through it as quickly as I can to get it over with so I can get them? 

 

The role seems to be what I figured it was going to be though, such a shame.

So how does it work, can we play both avenues of the role? Or are we forever committed once we choose who to side with?

Yes, you can do both avenues :)

Goes to show how sh*t Online is, in SP it'd be locked in and Arthur/John wouldn't be able to help the other no more

I can't figure out how to get naturalist XP. I bought the role, I've been sedating and studying animals (and photographing/tracking/killing/etc) for the compendium. But I still have 0 Naturalist XP. Do I have to sell Harriet the stuff for it?

Anyone dug up any drip-feed clothing items yet? Most of that stuff tends to be garbage, sure, but there's occasionally the odd decent thing, so it might be worth a look.

So far a lil underwhelmed by the new battle pass... the only two things I like is the fact it's free (you get ya40 goldbars back by levelling) and the zorro-mask...  The other stuff is ok, but nothing I get hyped by... The trailer and intro to the naturalist role was AWESOME...  Don't know about the naturalist stuff yet... I'm not invested as of yet, we'll see If I can get back into that vibe.. I just do my Carlier bounty, and I'm in the process of buying (out) every item in my catalog (sent to the postal office or locker at the camp). Just a personal challenge. After that we'll see...

 

Also daily challenges are now grouped by role, which is neat. And we get 20 dailies now... Each group gets a bonus if you complete all of them. So that's nice too. Some are only three, so a small extra bonus(es) there...

 

It's good we get a nice update. Ihope most of my friends come back n ow...

Harriet is a really fun character! Loved the intro scene to her and Gus. I wasted all my sedatives and they didn't do anything so I think I need to aim upclose or something.

The update isn't that good.... mostly because the core game mechanic behind it sucks

literally wtf  kind of animal conservationism is firing 50 bullets into their ass to sedate them

Headshots. If you rapid fire 4-5 headshots while the larger animals are standing still, they usually freeze long enough for you to get the marker red. If you miss, the chase is on, lol.

Am I the only one who actually is enjoying this role? I feel like it makes you explore the wilderness to a much slower and relaxed pace and makes you spot some things you might have not seen before. I just think that this pace is refreshing and relaxing from the usual hectic Moonshine Sales or Bounty Hunting missions.

 

I like both of the new characters, Gus has some pretty interesting stuff like trinkets and very cool clothing and Harriett has some pretty interesting tonics and other items. Legendary animals are going to be drip-feeded which is ok with me, will make me comeback to complete the Legendary guides and we will also be getting new collectables for Madam Nazaar. Outfits are pretty nice looking and later on I'll try out the new horse. 

 

Only thing I'm kinda disappointed about is the Outlaw Pass. It's free as long as you level it up but the previous was way better. (the state flags for the camp are really neat tho)

 

Overall i'm enjoying this update. I do get that some people wanted a more action packed role but I think this one is really interesting and relaxing to play, in a way, it doesn't feel as grindy as other ones do. (looking your way Bounty Hunter)

I find it a neat challenge get some of the animals to sit still for a photo op, lol.

I spent literally 45min waiting for a Timber Wolf in Cumberland Forest. NGL the wolves and bears are a b*tch to get a good photo.

I'm trying to keep the pace slow, but I'm already rank 20 in the pass.

I did my normal routine of dailies before even heading to Strawberry.

 

Digging the headband, but you can't wear a hat with it!  🤨

I'm really digging it too. I know alot of people want heists...but GTA Online has that. I'm glad they are putting out updates that seperate the two games more. The kids can continue to fight and greif each other in GTA. I'm an older player, I'm having a blast riding around at my own pace and searching for animals. Haha.

You can find her somewhere on the map and talk to her.  When you aren't researching animals you can take on poacher missions from her. Kind of like the bootlegger missions from Maggie.

 

Rank 5 wil unlock the legendary animal missions.

Where do you buy the headband? I couldn't figure it out when I was playing earlier. My character (male)  has the long ponytail so I'm curious how it will look

You unlock it in the rewards page, then go to Madam to buy it.

There are 6 different colors, each cost 6 gold.

So far today I've spent around 85 gold. (actually more, I didn't count the dailies I got done and the 5 gold I got back already from the pass, so more like 95)

 

That seems to be the favored method now, you have to unlock then travel to buy from whoever sells the item.

I watched a streamer earlier and he was using 6 shots per critter.

 

The tranqs actually kill small animals, however.

Ah thank you! I wondered if that might have been where I would find it but ran out of time to check before work

Ring Dang Do

The thing is there’s no real meat to this new role. Something like this should of been in online anyway as it’s basically already in SP but without the sedative part. 
 

All the animals are already ingame apart from the legendary ones so the role adds some new ammo and a bunch of rewards with some of them just being reskins of previous rewards like the trappers belt. 
 

Paying 25 gold to do activities that were already included in the base game lacks effort and creativity from my view.

I think there is a timer for a respawn of a legendary animal. I'm not sure tho, tomorrow I'll go for the beaver again as I couldn't get it to spawn about 45min after I first got it. Another thing that kinda has me puzzled is do I need to max out each animal? Or stamping the samples is enough? Harriett got pretty pissed at me when I returned to stamp the last animals lol.

I got b*tch slapped (or sprayed, whatever)

The naturalist role gets a bit more exciting after you get to rank 5 and unlock missions for it

I don't think you understand. I did nothing wrong. Nothing I did counted.

 

I figured it out. I had to commit suicide before it would work. f*ck Rockstar.

You can do Poacher missions for exp or look and study animals using the camera or binoculars.

There were like 5-2000 Naturalist Role XP coupons in the benefits section for me.
