The clothing clipping issues.

 

Oh, the f*cking clothing clipping issues.

 

R*, quick heads-up... don't include different body types in the game if they don't work with your generic character rig. Fat-bottomed gals like me are tired of half the game's poses being unusable in photos and gun straps hanging awkwardly just because I got more to love

 

Gonna need that extra layer come winter so don't go telling me I need to go on a corn and bullrush diet, ya hear

How many things has gone wrong... Imagine modern trailer for RDO: (Length 0.31) R* wanted to make some money, and limit players experience until they donate money, and those who donate more - wins in the game.

Before: player with golden weapons - truly challenger.
Today: player with golden weapons - casual who wasted parents money (around 15 USD per gun)
 

 

 

 

Watching this just makes me miss RDR1 multiplayer even more. I miss the spaghetti western atmosphere, and I hate some of the changes they made to the New Austin map. Seeing Tumbleweed as an active town is cool, but the lack of interiors in Armadillo sucks. The lack of interiors in Fort Mercer sucks. And the missing barn and structures at McFarland's Ranch sucks. It's like seeing a beautiful women getting plastic surgery only to come out looking worse. Why change things that don't need changing? The excuses about disease in Armadillo or that MCFarlands is still growing are weak excuses for poor design. And neither explain why there are no interiors at Fort Mercer. 

 

Off topic: The people that keep saying we're going to get an RDR1 remaster integrated into RDR2 are deluded. It would have to be a standalone game because of the changes made for the RDR2 map. That or they will have to retcon the whole thing. Can you imagine the sh*tty things they would do to Mexico? You would get to Las Hermanas and find out you can't enter the church. Or ride into Chuparosa to fins out that everything except the bar is closed. El Presidio is there, but all you can do is enter the courtyard. THese are the kinds of decisions that R* would make these days.

Oh, the f*cking clothing clipping issues.

You get me.

 

So many clothing setups don't work cause of the clipping. Plain white shirts clipping with multiple vests. Belts and holsters clipping with jackets. Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

 

I wanna say they've fixed at least some clipping issues cause I swear there was one clipping issue I had that is fine now but there's still so many cases of it.

[stahlbeton]

As my rant wasn't topicworthy enough I'll post it here again.

 

You lost us Rockstar. We tried. We tried really hard to love this game. I've seen the numbers of my crew decrease daily. As an active GTA crew since 2013 we tried (20+ players) Now it's only 1 or 2 who still manage to come on daily. Most left for other games or went back to GTA.

 

We get it, it's a beta. We get it, there are bugs.

 

But this is beyond. No f*cking updates for months, missions not working, deconnects by the dozen, XP into the minus and now we don't even get XP and Gold for doing the dailies? f*ck you Rockstar! f*ck you and your f*cking dripfeeding hipster clothing. f*ck you and your f*cking Fortnite gamemodes. f*ck you and your spawnrate, it's a f*cking dead world!

 

This could have been one of the greatest online experiences ever. But no, you only care about your f*ckin MTX. Such a shame, RDRO will be dead in a year.

And I am saying this as one of the last remaining hardcore RDR players from my crew. I really tried to love you, but I just can't anymore...

This game literally gets more and more broken by the day and it feels like the devs are just watching it happen with us.

I must've tried to start about 8 stranger missions today, only one of them actually launched, but it failed because my posse abandoned the job, despite my not being in a posse, on top of that daily challenges are still broken, so no incentive to bother with those at all. Did a gang hideout, tried to find more, but they spawn so unreliably that I couldn't find any after the first. And then there's all the glitches we still are putting up with since launch: Horse bonding, broken stubble that deters me from trying out other facial hair on my character for fear of breaking it again, shirts clipping with vests and coat sleeves, gunbelts clipping with new coats, periods of time where disconnects are so frequent that the game becomes unplayable, and no indication that Rockstar has any plans on fixing those bugs. It's more than a little annoying, and it's clear the devs don't care about Online.

[coach_wargo]

Another missing interior that can be seen on that RDR1 free roam trailer is the house at Ridgewood Farm. And how cool would it have been to see the inside of the Tumbleweed mansion in it's glory? I know they're small things individually, but together they become a big thing.

The same, I just wish R* did the same multiplayer in RDO, it was great. I don't understand, but R* just seems to be destroying RDO to prove T2 that their tactics are crap, or I may be wrong and R* are just the worst company ever.

Looking at RDO, this is the worst Online game up to this day. When you log in, you are expecting western shooting and fun, but the game shows you your empty wallet and you have to pay for everything, and then you have to work in the game to pay for your existence within this game world.

I logged in after watching so many RDR1 gameplay videos, inspired myself for western fun, but in reality...
I just appeared in nowhere, I had bounty on my head, around 10 dollars in a pocket, random players just kill me and run away, kill my horse, then I have to get to nearest barn to get back my horse, then I have to pay bounty because I killed few time a guy who attacked me and killed my horse (I just had to defend myself), and then I have no money, and then I end up fishing, fishing is boring and not what I wanted to do in the game, and fish lag, animals do not spawn, my character is hungry, horse is hungry. weapons are dirty.. And then I think myself: WHAT THE f*ck AM I DOING WITH MY LIFE AND WHERE THE f*ck IS FUN IN THIS GAME?!

Worst game EVER.

Edit: Holly mother of God, how complicated it was to make a good Online over already existing one? I just have a hard time believing that R* has only brain dead assholes working on this game instead of ruining it on purpose.

So true. Lack of previously accesible interiors in Armadillo, McFarlane ranch, Ridgewood farm and Fort Mercer was disappointing. They were accesible on inferior console so it's not like they couldn't copy-paste it. Tumbleweed spooky mansion too.  They picked up that "less interior" thing from GTA 5.

 

But yeah, like you said, they would probably butchered Mexico map with even less interiors. And don't get me started on spaghetti western atmosphere. I get instant boners from these RDR 1 videos.

This might just be an ASD related thing, but the clipping and lack of physics on my clothing makes me really loathe playing RDO.

Nah I don't think so. Character customisation is a big part of games like this and when there's glitches and stuff it just ruins it.

This is slightly off topic but why are most of the women players, ( actual women, not dudes playing one), such absolute bitches? They grief more than the guys. 

 

As you can tell, I had a little altercation and I may or may not get banned on PSN. But the lesson is she shouldn't have been a bitch. 

 

No offense to the other girls on here.

 

Edit: Coming from another gal player.  

Once I had another female player actually warn me of 2 players that were camping outside Valentine waiting to kill me. There are *some* nice players out there. But it's so damn rare today. Everyone just has to be a dick for no reason. I just get bad vibes from most of the female players I come across and distance myself. 

[Waingro]

I thought RDO was gonna be about morality and finding your place in a world of outlaws and honest hardscrabble people.

 

My bad it's about magic cards and daily challenges.

 

Is Cyberpunk 2077 out yet?

 I don't ever wear my duster on horse back because it gets blown back and never moves. I come to a stop and it stays out there like it's in the wind, but of course with no flapping.

I did restart the game, but a console reset may be needed.

The entire design of RDRO does seem lazy. Rinse/repeat missions and modes; Entire map areas left out; Very few buildings to enter. And, just like in GTAO, it feels like R* limits the fun factor.  It feels as if they cripple things and limit interaction in many ways that hold the game back, like they intentionally add frustrating elements. 

And also, that 'tap X to run' mechanic has to go. First, it is not ergonomic. Second, posse members constantly vie to ride with one another now just to save their thumbs.

In fairness in regards to the RDR1 DLC in RDR2 theories, it's pretty much assumed that they'd make changes to RDR1 if that were to happen. RDR2 muddled with a few things so a straight up RDR1 standalone wouldn't really work story wise. Map changes are easy, that's no reason it can't happen.

 

It's still a big if of course but there's no reason why they can't do it.
