I don't know how you guys continue to support this game's awful online. Instead of more gameplay for one of the greatest sp games of all time we get content for an online mode nearly everyone I know gave up on back in December/January, yay.

What is it R* and dailys?

Logged in to do dailys and saw we got to hunt some turkeys.... Couldn´t see any animals in the session I was in so no biggie just start a bounty!

 

Well, it seemed that the earth had swallowed them up! When I did find a turkey not a flock of them just one!

So yes, It seems that the dailys are harder than they supposed to be!

How hard do you punch the buttons then? Do you take a running start?

So far I've managed one controller per console (PS) on some serious playtime.

As long as I don't play Driver San Fransisco I'm a-okay.

I don't press it that hard, it is just the amount it has been pushed that has worn it down.

Having a horse with unlimited stamina doesn't help, especially when you are rushing through challanges and have to go from one end of the map to the other and you are too cheap to use the Fast Travel... Then that A button gets mushed a bit =P

• Spawn in the middle of the mountain in my desert outfit. So I'm obviously cold and losing heart. Can't change outfit in a mission on a horse for some reason.
• Quit mission (find a new lobby) so I can change outfit.
• Change outfit.
• Walk back to the bounty poster.
• Locked out of legendary bounty for another 30 minutes.

 

#FUN!

 

Oh and I also got an infinite "pending transaction" when changing my camp's theme for the daily, prompting me to ALT+F4 out of there. 

 

 

Being stuck in the wrong outfit is a pain in legendary bounties, I started watching the start of the e gta series videos just to figure what I should be wearing before I start. It's daft my horse is there, there's an outfit for all 3 temps, why can't we just change as normal? 

I get the same issue with camp theme on xbox, seems to sort itself out after 5 minutes so I go make a cuppa.  Used to have the same issue with changing horse appearance as well.

Doesn't take that much, I'm on my 3rd controller in 4 years and to be honest I'm surprised this one has lasted a year, I didn't think it was going to last until the end of the 3 month warranty. 1st one the A button went soft and the 2nd the shoulder button snapped off, didn't even press it that hard (wish they would tell you if the shoulders are one piece or seperate, the single piece ones are crap). I have bought a pair of screwdrivers for the xbox controller as well, was about £3 and I was able to salvage enough from the 1st 2 to make a working controller so saved about £40

 Also on my third controller in three years, first two were the standard XB controllers, & those died quick, LB's on both broke. Got a Recon Tech. Still going, but it's starting to feel its wear. I'm gonna need a new one soon.

Trade Route is basically unplayable at this point, if you are lucky enough to make it in, it's just constant explosions.

I just lost 6 goods.

Like tf is this sh*t.

[Hayes MP]

I think most agree the most pressing issues right now are camp and animal spawns. So what does Rockstar do? Looks like they revamped the lobby merging to make sure the player count never drops below 20 for very long. I seriously doubt they get very many complaints about lobbies getting too small. Compare that to how many complaints they are probably getting about animal spawns.

 

The least they could do is take out the damn dailies that require killing animals.

I've stopped playing it, there's no point anymore.

 

I either have to deal with straight up trolls blowing up goods and using dynamite to knock anyone they can off the train or I get the salty types who use dynamite to knock anyone with a higher kill count than them off the train.

 

I CBA dealing with these c*nts.

It's such a shame that trolls have ruined one of the few cooperative game modes we have in the game

[CosmicBuffalo]

When its easier and faster to cook a frozen turkey than to find 3 in free mode.

[zibies]

Helped a mate do his goods run from trader role. 
100 goods, he gets 600usd, ppl who help gets 300usd each.
So next time he crashed the wagon. We pick up 4 sacks and run to the buyer. He gets 400usd we get 3.62usd............. Who the fudge did the math on that one?!?!?

[Bakkerbaard]

@Danish Crusader 

Yeah, I'm also too cheap for fast travel, usually, but I'm also never really in a hurry, so that saves on buttonmashes.

@Xtf

I'm on Playstation, so I've got the Dualshock. Those have always been rather tough. Guess they still are, though I notice a decrease in quality this generation.

Guess "our" time had to come too. ;o)

Yes, that and those stupid f*cking hunting resupply missions!

At least loads of deer spawn when you're supposed to be hunting imaginary bison or a duck (really? one duck?) that never shows up.

My camp has been so chock full of materials I can't donate a thing now for a while.

I bought supplies then went on a killing spree to seriously lower my honor.

This is exactly how I feel about RDO.

R* wasted it's potential all for the love of money.

Easy answer, I actually enjoy it and haven't missed a day since day one. Too bad for them I guess, considering the game didn't start getting real content until 6 months from release.

Well, some people still like Anthem, some people still like Fallout76, and some people still enjoy RDO, despite the flaws and missing content.

Another lunch break.

 

Another legendary bounty.

 

Get killed, out of lives, replay mission.

 

"You have been disconnected due to a fault on Rockstar's server services".

 

Locked out of legendary bounty.

 

FFS.

 

Why isn't the cooldown applied on mission completion instead?

[Talisman_83]

Started a distant sale.

Disconnected midway through due to a fault on R*'s game services.

Load back and I've lost everything.

 

Why in the utter f*ck do they zero your goods as soon as you start the sale? To prevent you closing the app when you get paid so you can restart it again?

Maybe fix THAT potential glitch rather than punish anyone who dares to start a sale because of a fault on your end, you absolute cunts.

[Red Lynx 23]

I had six out of seven of today's dailies finished. So I went and joined race series for the seventh daily challenge. Still only races that have guns available. How long until we get races that require winning by skill, not shooting at players who are ahead of you?

Happy Thanksgiving, fellow b*tchers and moaners.

It's not buttons for me, it's the left thumbstick. It gets worn down. I've gone through 3 controllers in 7 years. All work fine...I've just ruined the left thumbstick.

 

I need like...Beskar plating there or something.

Same.... don't know why.

I put up with the last one for a good six months before finally getting pissed off last month, replacing it. ONLY in Rockstar games does my character f*ck off without my say so, it's worse in this game than GTA as your dumb ass mcgee horse is already dumb as bricks and trying to make you fall off

I wonder if that's what happened today. on the last leg halfway between the wagon on the tracks and the end, minimal enemies and suddenly 4 crates blow up.

I've gone through three in a year. One of them, I've pulled apart and cleaned so it seems to be fine for now but my god... The first PS4 controller I had lasted three years solid. I think Sony is outsourcing manufacturing to Chinese prison labor or something.

Follow up:

 

Sent a bug report requesting some form of compensation, whether it be to revert my stock to 100/100 or pay me the money I would have earned.

Response: Sorry to hear that

 

Sent another reply, stating that that isn't good enough.

Response: We don't have the facility to offer in-game compensation.

 

Absolute BS. You did it during the beta period.

I'm not gonna bother trying to argue my case with f*cking idiots.

Just gonna say goodbye to trader. Why take the risk?

Collector all the way now, at least its instantly saved.

 

So yeah - to everyone who runs trader - if you get disconnected, you're f*cked.

Always SAVE a video to prove that the sale was f*cked! It's been a saving Grace for me and they will always refund you the amount for a large sale! (The only one that wasn't refunded was the one without a video.)

 

Sorry, you're having that issue. It's such a slap in the face, considering they can check everything about your account.

Photos taken in Blackwater break Social Club for some reason. I thought it was just a one-off thing with the Social Club server being derpy, but no, it's just the game's spaghetti coding asserting its presence as usual.
