Lousy game... Just spent another 1500 ingame dollars on stuff I will probably only use today and then never again.

I did finish up a couple more collections for next friday. I just want to get that early XP boost in the next Outlaw Pass.

 

Also, screw the people who attack first then get all angry about it when they get their asses kicked. You shot first, now take your beating!

Right?  If someone shoots first then they are fair game. My favorite is when someone kills you first and then they try to tell you how you can fight back. What weapons you can use, what bullets , blah blah blah. Its like ummm excuse me but you started this entire fight and I will defend myself however I please.

 

Talk about shooting first there was this guy on a hunting cart and I had a camp near by. I was hunting for awhile riding around, he was afk. I did not bother this guy once and when he gets back from afk first thing he does is pull a gun out and shoot me. I didn't appreciate that and neither did my pose  so we had fun with him for awhile; shot him in his face a bunch of times, blew him up, made a toasty fire log outa him, tossed him off a cliff,  put him on train tracks watched him get hit by a train. I have to say it was quite the party,

WTF is going on?

 

Also, when your hunting wagon is full, and you remove (discard) a carcass to replace it with a better one, it's gone, just disappears.

That is just stupid.

Maybe If we collect information we could get a better understanding, but I’ve notice since the Moonshiners DLC was announced we have seen a spike in disconnects. Obviously  the issue has to be on load been put the severs. I hope this Update comes with the invite only lobbies...

At least The mamba doesn’t drive you in to trees by itself.  The mamba in the snow seems smarter than the horses in rdr.

It's MY business consider I do all the f*cking work. All Cripps does is leech but doesn't have an excuse like Uncle does, poor soul has Lumbago. It's quite serious!

Not to menton the snide comments about 1* materials. If you could do sooo much better then why didn't you shoot and collect the herd of pronghorn IN the camp? hmm?

 

 

Oh and yea f*ck YOU I made the f*cking stew. YOU made the sh*t I dumped in the creek.

 

One last thing, stop shooting the damned firewood!

You don't actually connect to the R* servers. You connect via an Akamai Edge Server, which obtains and caches the content you need. (a mini host if you will). The issue is between your ISP and the Edge Servers.

On the few occasions I've missed the in game texts from GTAO I've thought back to the "1v1 at beach" or the salty messages try hards use to send me when they discovered that I wasn't going to be another easy "1-0 lzzz" victim and I remembered why I'm actually glad there's no text chat in RDO.

 

On a more helpful note, there's always PSN/Xbox messages or 3rd party apps like Discord.

I agree the texts and chat from GTAO could be annoying, but it was sometimes useful to clear up misunderstandings. A simple, "Oops, sorry, didn't mean to do that," goes a long way in certain situations. I just feel some kind of quick way to clear up a misunderstanding while in-game could be helpful.

 

For example, the other day, my husband and I were doing a resupply for his camp. We ran by a large posse and one of them appeared to take a shot at my husband while he was on the wagon. I was on horseback behind him, and not wanting to risk anything, I pulled a gun on them and fired a shot back. In retrospect, I think they were probably doing something else and just happened to be in the same vicinity as us. They then went all out, came after me and it turned out being three of them against me. Since I was technically the instigator according to the game, they were able to press charges on me when I killed them all. An in-game chat log like GTAO's would have enabled me to type a quick, "Hey, sorry, thought you took a shot at my husband's resupply". I don't even think they realized we were posse'd up. They just thought I was some random asshole taking shots at them for no reason when in reality, I never fire on people in this game unless it's done to me first. I won't even usually fight back if I'm alone, I'll just switch sessions. I'm a peaceful player.

 

I guess I should just bite the bullet and get on voice chat.

On two occasions I've accidentally fired on players, something I only do when playing one of the PvP modes (unfortunately, sometimes when being fired on my instincts take over and I fire back but I usually just lobby hop to another server). On both occasions, I toggled out of the game and sent actual PSN messages explaining my error and apologizing. 

 

An in-game chat log makes a lot of sense to me.

 

I don't want to play with a mic because I think it stops me hearing at least some of the idiocy going on. Plus I have a habit of firing off an expletive or three at times and I'd rather not force my failings on the public.

I was just talking about this the other day with my friend.  A type of game chat where you can type in quick if you are in the vicinity of someone would be helpful, kinda like how alot of games I play on PC are set up. Its hard not being able to communicate to someone in case of mishaps or just to see what someone wants. Like for example yesterday this guy was following our pose around and  it would been nice to be able to ask in chat what they wanted quickly, apparently they wanted to join our posse so we invited them.  Also you can not always contact someone via PS4 chat, many have the setting on friends can only message them. That is how mines is set because I got tired of spam and boys hitting on me.

3 more today.  (on PC)

It's happened when I was aiming at a deer, once when aiming at a duck, once while aiming at an NPC during a random (rescue the tied policeman' mission, once just after collecting a tarot card, and the rest while riding down the road.

I don't dare try a camp sale.

My B & M: I can’t tell which handles worst the Mamba from GTA Online or the horses from RDO

If RDO ever gets private invite only sessions, chances are a ton of features will be missing just like the invite only sessions in GTA Online. In GTA Online any missions that allow players to attack, steal, or destroy something are restricted to public lobbies. For example: if you wanted to deliver a wagon from Cripps Trading Co, Rockstar would probably restrict that to public lobbies. 

[Talisman_83]

Thank god we don't have in-game messaging.

I'd say the toxic behaviour of a proportion of the GTA community is further bolstered by the presence of that.

 

If they do introduce it, then at least give us the option of being able to mute all. Forever.

[kcole4001]

Also today when I finally got a camp set up after being disconnected twice, I couldn't donate a carcass I was carrying.

I donated all of the stuff on my horse, but then had to exit out, stash the carcass on the horse, then I could donate it.

Cripps makes the pelts sellable though. You collect, he produces.

I'd risk them being implemented. Other details could be sorted out later.

I've never missed any of those features that aren't allowed in gtao invite only sessions.

 

[WHAT!?]

Anyone else getting this glitch where Cripps doesn't have a resupply mission available after a sale? I just sold 25 goods. Usually when I do this I come back to camp and like clockwork I need to do a resupply mission before Cripps will produce again. This time it just remained grayed out and production was halted. Thinking my session was bugged I hopped into a new one. At that point I re-pitch the camp (which amazingly actually pitched) and when I get to Cripps he is already producing again without my resupply and even the option to resupply is still grayed out. @Menstrual Deranged has been having this issue as well. Haven't seen a fix and frankly don't really want to talk to Rockstar Support about it because they suck.

Unfortunately that’s the direction its looking to go.  I’m waiting for the new casino heist to be public only lobbies only also.  Everything to earn $$ in gtao can be done in I/o lobbies, the options are just disabled.  When the businesses first came out R* did a live stream in a pubic lobby and got destroyed so they moved to a I/o and finished the stream so they are aware of the issues,  like I’ve said before - forced pvp breeds frustration in turn frustration breeds card sales from players that want the latest items.  We will see what this update has to offer but dont get your hopes up on lobby options to play/progress in peace.

Agreed. In GTAO - I mute the whole lobby, every time.

Just FYI, for the time being, it looks like selling off whatever its stuck at (for example if there is only 3 units to sell and Cripps will produce no more and there is no option for resupply) then after the sale is completed session hop and it should start working as normal. If it stops again continue to session hop until it reaches the 25 units that it should end up at for a small wagon delivery. Make the sale and hopefully all will be right with the world.

In the snowy parts up north it never snows. Instead it's just raining which looks stupid. Am I the only one experiencing this?

Its out there, I've seen it, a long time ago mind you. Couldn't tell you how to find it on Youtube now though. Perhaps start with R*'s playlists on their channel

Oh sweet irony.... 

 

Back to RDO issues: the glitch where I couldn't sell carried carcasses fixed itself after a session jump, but the camp is in a tardis or something.

I resupply, then it disappears.

I sell stock, end up in Flatneck, so naturally I stock up on piggy bits to resupply, then the camp disappears again.

 

 

I'm just about done with the trader because of this.

[kcole4001]

Addendum: the camp spawn/packing up seems tied to how far you wander from the camp.

If you stay nearby, it's stable.

If you leave the region for a mission, your camp will be offered up to another player.

I've even had notification of my camp being moved to another location in the same region and found another player's in mt old spot.

No, that's normal for everyone on consoles.
