tonight i was doing a long distance sale (only worth $78.00), i got attacked and killed by two other players.

i respawned and manged to kill one of them but the other killed me, i dashboarded out.

why can't other players mind their own business?

 

I've done quite a few long distance sales and can tell you it's hit or miss. I always check the posse list and if there's a posse larger than mine (2 or more), I usually switch sessions or wait it out depending on my mood.

I never attempt long distance sales alone. I'm usually running a full 100 shipment and it would suck to have to defend it against swarming asshags. Also, I've noticed that the server will sometimes empty completely leaving me and my posse to our lonesome.

I finally decided to try the Trader role last night.

 

Sent out to pick up Cripps's cart for the first time. Rode all the way to the location and dispatched the guards. As soon as I hop on - disconnected

 

One grumbling restart and repeat later I attempt to make my first delivery for the business. The horse and cart gets wedged between a small rock and what would generously be described as a thin tree by the roadside not far from the drop-off. Game:  ThE SuPpLiEs WeRe DeStRoYed

 

 

It sucks paying almost a grand for essentially a balsa-wood cart that could be destroyed by a toddler swinging a whiffle bat.

 Make of it what you will: 

   The Bandannas as masks are back to not loading up into a lot of missions/events. I did NOT spend gold on a trimmed bandanna to not display it when I actually wish. A good part of joining a public activity is to share/flex/show off all the gear you have & how you like to put it together, No? Bad enough some of the pre-made outfits aren't compatible with many other items of clothing, but come on! Why break my immersion, by unmasking me for no reason?

Collector role is like 100 times faster to level up than bounty hunter and trader. You receive tons of XP for looting stuff that can be found everywhere, even in pockets of random enemies.
I'm not saying like the issue is in Collector XP gain, the issue is in how slow other 2 roles are progressing. Driving a wagon for sale across the country is not worth the money and XP, bounty hunter missions are time related, so you have to wait until last minute to deliver the bounty, otherwise you'll get nothing but a few dollars and worthless amount of XP (should remind that bounty hunter mission usually goes with 10+ minutes timer).

Did they ever tested their own "roles" in the studio or things has been coded into the gave without reviewing? What a mess.

Combat system became much better, but strafing (did I said it right?) is just way too fast, movement looks way too arcadish now, and other animations has been left unedited, makes the game feel like unfinished when you loot everyone with good speed, and getting asleep while your character is trying to open the locker. Was it that hard to do things right? I'm starting to guess that R* RDO team has work time until breakfast time.

Anyway, I and my friends had some good time with this update, but yet again, it gets too repetitive. The game is missing the point of being the Game. I have prayed for ability cards to be discarded, but they added new ones. Instead of introducing PVP game mode without ability cards, they create a game mode with free aim.. With free aim in the game that has floating camera and reticle on their own curve.

What are you doing R*...

Yeah I still hate that I have to live with this new movement speed. I used to walk around and it felt natural. But they've stripped away so many animations that it just feels so different now, like it's a kid's cartoon game. If I try to walk normally it doesn't work, I can go really slow or fast, that's it...no normal speed. And the combat is so fast now it's just silly. I don't think I'll ever get used to it but I love the game so I'll have to accept it, but damn it sucks.

To be fair, there's NOTHING a toddler can't destroy with a whiffle bat. Just sayin'.

No regular XP being tallied for selling sets today. Hold on to them....
Just wasted 6000+ XP points because I went through the drive thru....

Wish they'd stop fiddling with despawning times, atleast seems that way every camp defense I do the bodies vanish right away and after the pointless cutscene all of them are gone now they seem on purpose. Also they gave the new tied up camp rescue enemy NPCs autoaim sniper rifles this is like GTAV giving the gang attacks mini guns, yay I got killed in one shot by a Rolling block rifles almost instantly even with gold stats. Guess we'll be seeing more of their bullet sponge perfect aim lazy cheap difficulty showing up more in future DLCs... These people that are desiging these new online features don't seem to do anything new at all, no creativity at all it's not even there.

Can someone PLEASE explain why my guns don’t do nearly as much damage as other people’s? I’ve tested it, at the same range someone can one-shot me with a sawnoff, mine does barely half damage. It’s like this for every gun, I do between 3/4 and 1/2 the damage of every one of my friends. Is there some cheat that people are using that I somehow missed? What the f*ck is going on?

They might be using Slug ammo alongside ability cards that boost damage + reduce damage taken, and they might have health leveled up to 10.

 

Ability cards are a pain in the ass.

Ja Nah, it’s even in that Sport of Kings gamemode where you’re forced to use buckshot. 

 

I’m level 109, max health. Running maxed Short Game and Winning Streak cards. I theoretically should be unstoppable at close range, but no matter what I have to put dozens of shots into someone to put them down. Even with slugs it usually takes 2-3 to actually incapacitate them and then another hit to kill. I just had a game where I hit someone EIGHT times in the chest with hollowpoint rounds from my dual revolvers before they were incapacitated and I went over and kicked them to death.

The update has so many bugs and bs, there are no animals to hunt, so you cannot fill the trader.  Bounties still black screen and the wagon is bugged and does not spawn.  The collector is only that actually works properly.

Is there any possibility that they're headshotting you?

What about Focus Fire, could they have been using that?

I tested with a friend of mine. I was running max NWO, Of Single Purpose and Fool Me Once.

He one shot me through all of that. Focus Fire + headshot.

I'm still getting this damn bug where my repeating shotgun and my lemat shoot twice in succession every time I pull the trigger. It goes away for a while but always returns. Seems to only be these two weapons so far. Sent a bug report about this weeks ago but never seen any mention of it so is it only me?

I don’t see how they could reliably get headshots at ranges where my bodyshots routinely miss. Unless Rockstar just hates me specifically and puts a miss multiplier on me. Besides, you can tell when a shot is a headshot and when it isn’t, from how your character ragdolls. The majority of the time its bodyshots. 

 

This happens regardless of game modes, and irrespective of how recently they’ve shot. They could’ve just killed someone, whipped around, and shot me down in just a second or two pause. I could get it happening once in a blue moon, but this is constant. It’s basically why I never play PvP, that combined with the ludicrous aim wobble that lasts for minutes after a single bullet is fired at me [which curiously never seems to affect anyone else nearly as much, going by how often they’re able to rapidly headshot me as I’m hitting them] makes it nearly impossible for me to regularly get kills. They only way I can make it happen is hang back with a Springfield [which for some reason, mine is less accurate than other player’s repeaters] or a Winchester and just fire a few rounds until one decides to go where I aim it: the head. Or if I just run around with a tomahawk chugging stamina fortifiers and tackle-melee people.

What about the cleanliness of your weapons? Do you keep them intact?

Sorry, I'm just guessing at this point. It could very well be lag. Who knows.

Yup. Never let em fall further than a bar of ‘cleanliness’. 

 

It’s not lag either. Internet’s a bit sh*te here, but I can tell the difference between lag shenanigans and code shenanigans. This isn’t the first Rockstar game where I’ve had a demonstrable deficit to other players. In GTA Online, My guns do demonstrably less damage across the board regardless of mods. In GTA 4 MP, my characters all ran slower and had slower animations than my mates’.

Wow so many comments on disconnects.  And now it's worse than ever!  It's taken me 3 tries just to get online, then as soon as i started on my journey, boom disconnect.  With a constant +50mbps down and +20mbps up. Seriously R*  get your sh*t together!

At least allow players to lag into empty lobbies instead of disconnecting like in GTA! . But they don't want that, they want you in a lobby full of f*cktards to get in your way of progress.

 

I just want to complete all the collections, this problem is really starting to get annoying!

^^The playerbase will lighten up soon. Many players rush through everything so fast they soon get bored and go to other games. Then the disconnects will happen a lot less. I'm already seeing fewer players, on weekdays and at night.

Averaging about one disconnect an hour over the last two days, far from ideal but I'm (sadly) getting used to it and almost accepting it. How pissed off I get about it depends on what I'm doing in the game at the time.

Join master archer, event starts, get shot by a fire arrow, somehow (or due to quickly chuggin tonic lol) I survive, but the game prompts the loading sequence with the clouds. Then I get an endless blackscreen with the spinning barrel icon... 🤨

And that be why R* show no urgency to fix obvious issues, lol.

 

So long as the majority just keep playing regardless and the gold sales are good, it's not getting any better. 

 

That's more a general thing and not aimed at you of course. I'm just as guilty for playing these broken games of R*'s, though this game is rapidly pushing me away as it's so limited compared to their other monster hit. Both are very broken but one allows me full control and I can minimise any issues myself.

 

They're that scared I'll play alone, and yet that's all I do, lol. I don't play with anyone, I'm on defensive and reject any semblance of PvP out there too. By making me play with cheats and different playstyles, I simply don't and won't trust anyone I meet, lol.

 

Maybe they'll fix it for the next gen re-release, lord knows at this pace they'll need a pitch. 🤣🤠

Wait, you got 18-20 collectibles during salvage?? That's really impressive, I'd like to see a video of that.

 Soooooo, I finally break down & buy a varmit rifle (at rank 278), annnnnnnnd this thing seems worse than Vicki (my langcaster) after the nerf. Can't seem to bring down birds, botches simple three star small/medium game shots.  :/  Hell my farming was going a LOT better when I was just one and two starring everything with Vicki. What did R* do to this rifle? I know it was classic "OP" for showdowns, but did ya HAVE to dirt-nerf it? Thank Basst I had money & it was cheap as the dirt it can't seem to hit straight.

 

 Also on a separate rant, the game seems to be randomly forgetting which outfit I'm wearing when I load into free roam events, or session hopping.  WTF is going on? I have the Trader's saddlebags ( that's supposed to hold seven outfits) but at the time I only had six outfits in it, I tried deleting one, (which hurt) & I'll hope that fixes it until R* actually f***ing does.

I was about to finally buy it myself, I'll be sure to skip it now lol.

 

I've also noticed for some reason my game constantly makes me a 'custom' outfit a lot. Seems to happen loading in for me as well, not the same issue but yes there seems to be something a little wonky for outfits.

 

My B&M is disconnects, which have gotten better but I had one last night at the end of the delivery. Lost all 50 goods and no reward. More upsetting then usual cause I'm not a huge fan of Trader in the first place.

Whenever the next time I’ll log on into the game, I know I’ll be upset at Cripps and his camp placement as usual, but more so than usual.

 

I’ve finally got my camp places in Clemens Point, the place where Dutch’s gang camp during Chapter 3. It’s a great spot, and had Cripps accepted fish, it’d be perfect. The place is surrounded with deer and varmint spawns, and exotic birds like herons and pelicans regularly fly over the camp , which makes topping off the production bar very convenient. All you need is a varmint rifle and to look up, and to scope into the trees with a regular rifle for the occasional grazing deer.

 

Anyway, I’m sure he’ll put me in the middle of the Braithwaite plantation or at the tip of the border with New Hanover towards Emerald Ranch, just typical and awful spawns.
