Yay for all new guns but why can´t we discard the ones we don´t like anymore?

Pretty sad really.

 

 

Yup - that, and would it really be so hard to just have a sell/discard option in general, R*?

 

Think of it this way, after all: give players the option to either sell (for 2/3 the full value) or just throw away guns, and that means that they can also buy them again - possibly with gold even!  C'mon, R* - I'm surprised you haven't already jumped at the chance to let players spend potentially limitless money on the same weapon, over and over... 

 

 

...but yeah, that's why I'm really judicious about buying weapons - helps that they're expensive in general, but I'm only planning on buying stuff for keeps (and which fits my character/play style), so I'm not going to just impulse-buy any old thing that I'll regret later, with no option to get rid of it.

First they need to implement the option to sell horses, that's more blatant.

Absolutely agreed. Same with GTA:O, and many have felt that pinch through garage limits and them adding another boatload of cars, lol. We should be able to sell anything really. I hope it becomes something more in future.

 

So far, I've only collected the free guns from the Ultimate Edition and a sniper for gators and such. The odd melee weapon but overall, a pretty minimal approach. (Not an ideal setup for PvP though, lol. Luckily it's less an issue with defensive). I'm still using the horse from the UE too, Jenny.

This is a glaring omission from the game.

 

The only reason I can see for R* making the decision not to allow us to sell horses is to prevent duping. 

 

To me, this seems OTT and detrimental to the vast majority of players who wouldn't sit around for hours duping black Arabians for a few gold bars a pop. I just would like to get a couple of hundred dollars back if I decide to sell a $950 horse when I want to replace it.

I do agree, but equally, at least we can chuck 'em away. And it's be a huge shame if it is because of dupers that we now can't sell a grand's worth of horse. Poor solution IMHO.

[ram_pete67]

if we talk horses. Its cool that the horse now can pick herbs and hand it to me. but why on earth cant the horse just bloody eat it by himself ?

It's the only reason I can think of that makes any kind of sense. 

 

What other reason could there be behind making the choice to not let us sell horses?

 

It could be designed as a money sink, but even if we could sell, for say 1/3 of the original cost, we'd only be getting just over $300 back when selling a top end $950 horse, we're still losing money, what we would get from selling our horses would only be a token gesture.

I wonder if that was in mind when they said they're not thinking about single player content?

 

Hope not. Would be a bit harsh to give PC only some new single player content right after telling us not to expect any, lol.

 

PC is getting new Bounties with stories, new Hideouts, new Weapons and some other stuff. Thats blatant Single Player Content.

New Pistol included in the PC version

High power pistol from RDR?

 

Hopefully not, as that was based on the 1903 model, but maybe the earlier FN 1900?

Possible ray of sunshine, there: all the other PC-exclusive weapons are just things which are RDO-exclusive on console - wouldn't be at all surprised if it gets added to RDO (for megabucks, naturally...) as the next big 'everyone will want this' weapon, like the LeMat.

 

Its still sh*tty that PC gets SP content even if its small stuff. I dont see why R* is determined to split up its player base. PS4 gets stuff that Xbox has to wait for and PC gets stuff that Consoles might never get. There does not need to be specific reasons to buy the game on PC. PC and Consoles do not compete with each other.

I agree.

 

I'll be on PC and PS4 but still find it lame that there has to be these differences in content between platforms.

 

I haven't bought RDR2 on PC because of a gun, some horses and a couple of extra missions. I've bought it because of how the game will look and perform on PC.

 

This whole timed exclusives between console versions and marginally more content on PC thing needs to be put to bed by R*.

No, the new Pistol is the FN1900. I think the version we are getting is a prototype or they have shaved a year off the name to make it fit so its the FN1899.

 

The High Power Pistol from RDR1 is the FN 1903.

That's good to know. Little things like if it was the FN 1903 in a game set in 1899 really annoy me.

Excellent use of the word fannies. I agree with this and would like to add another.

Thats because they have PTSD from GTAO:

 

I know what you mean though. Someone came by and it was one of the bounties I was doing, but a random came by and helped with a shoot out against 4 bounty targets and helped with tying up the bounties before they could make a break for it. By the time we cleared them all and everybody was tied down and ready for packing for the wagon the dude was long gone. Didn't even had time to thank em........he/she was like the Mysterious Stranger from the Fallout Universe

I would be happy with the ability to just delete horses/guns. I don't even care about the money at this point.

I had a terrible opinion about this game ever since it came out and my posts are still on the first two pages, still have a few problems with it but I got to say it got a whole lot better, I am actually having fun, but ........

But................

But...........................

THOSE FREAKING ABILITY CARDS ARE THE DUMBEST AND THE MOST IDIOTIC THING THAT ROCKSTAR HAS EVER CAME UP WITH FOR THIS GAME.

I had to deal with some scumbag that was almost invincible last night because of his freaking cards.

They are not okay and they do not belong in this game.

Pvp is just one giant round of Power Play from GTAO with the difference being that instead of picking up the abilities from the map, you have them in your pocket, and it's dumb.

Yeah, but Showdowns I don't know whats more annoying ability cards or people who toss dynamite wildly, because they can't out gun the next man.

Oh god... There's 2 of them now!

Don't like one is staring at my dog and the other one is sharpening his knife. also while looking back at the dog...

I'm going to have to kill one of them... Or make them fight to the death! May the best Cripps win!

 

Anyway, if you thought 1 Cripps bitching was bad, I have 2 of them now and it is just as bad as you'd imagine...

R* talk of us choosing our ways, yet lock the content many wanted to roles meaning choice is lesser than it could be.

 

Or should be, I strongly feel. (I felt I was quite open about not wanting to anything other than collector since these roles arrived. Apologies if I wasn't clear).

I'm with ya, I can't think of anything otherwise, lol. A shame but here's hoping this role DLC was a thorough test and gave them time to glance over more with less pressure.

It'll only give weight to those screaming for a true story DLC and false hope really, as they said no more and then did/will. 

 

It'd be a real bastard if it doesn't come to consoles though, I know I'll be grumpy.

Pretty sure the reason we can't sell Horses is for a future Roles update, Horsebreaker or whatever.

 

Break wild Horses and sell them to Stables for cash, steal Horses from NPC's and sell them to the Horses Thieves from Story Mode or you can sell trained Horses (Bonding Level) for far more money which will take time and time = money.

Oh yeah, that part I agree with. I was talking more about us players being able to sell our personal horses and guns etc. We can discard horses which is ok, but guns would help too, and anything really, lol. If I wanna sell and lose money or throw it away trying something, it'd be nice anyway.

 

If they release the PC content a month later to us, I'm good with that though. Better than not, but as above, this whole mess of versions or timed exclusives is silly.

I still think that we can't sell our Horses is because they are saving that concept for the Horsebreaker Role.

We can discard horses, I don't think we should have to, but I'm glad we have the option.

 

Guns absolutely need this option. The "weapons" (why can't we store melee weapons R*?) locker at camp is ok for free roam, but as with GTAO, it doesn't affect missions, leaving us to have to cycle through our entire arsenal. 

 

I really wish I could just discard things like my cattleman revolvers, high roller revolver, carbine rifle etc.

If they don't let us discard/sell weapons......I'm hoping if they decide to do properties we can just put them on display in a case or weapon plaque and keep it out of our weapon wheel entirely until we pick it up again.

Hopefully a good role that too. At the least, by then R* will have more time to let ideas and feedback grow and with horses in general being worked on for that role, I've hope they could change things or iron out kinks. Would be nice to see more freedom overall weather it's horses or guns, or beyond.

I like that idea very much and gonna send feedback on that. The casino penthouse decorating in GTA and RDR's story with more dynamic events in the map are great to highlight how interactive their worlds can be. I hope this comes in a few ways so which ever role we play, there's ways to store our excess or more unique weapons and tools.
