Glad I am not the only one.. I would have met 7 daily challenges had it not been for this screw up

I just spent 5h in 3 different legendary bounty missions just for hunting.And all the other animals were there but I couldn’t find a single larger animal,those that gives you a ”skin” only option(bears,elks,moose,alligators etc).
I wonder if those are some sort of the problem and R* has temporarily removed them.Anyone else noticed this on PS4?It’s pain in the ass to find big game meat sources because gators are missing and it’s been more than a week since I saw even a wolves

[Between3and22char]

So, no new event today

[ALifeOfMisery]

I've given up for tonight. Three disconnects in a row when trying to sell moonshine, luckily I've still got the sale waiting to go so I'll try again in the morning, it might complete or help towards a daily.

I totally agree. If they've read any feedback given to them on social media, they'd know what the solution to the spawn problems is. A few days ago I got dumped in a lobby of 30 players and noticed even a reduced spawn of NPC's in the open world. I rode from Brandywine Drop to Blackwater, without encountering even 1 NPC rider along the road. Towns had NPC's, but none outside towns. 

I really don't know why they won't lower the numbers in lobbies. It's not like you run into any of the other players all the time anyway. They might as well give us private lobbies, when that issue is concerned. 

If I put on my tinfoil hat, I would think that it is a way of throttling. R* is data mining us all. A lot of players made a sh*t load of cash with the interactive collector's map. 

 

And the good part is, that it was completely legal. So R* can not wipe the gains. 

 

I got into a session with a few players by accident and the wildlife was abundant again. 

 

To the defense of R*, the devs have a right to celebrate Christmas too. The brass at R* just should realize that their player base is not amused.

Nice to see the GTAO Social Club pages getting an update, even after all these years (all the cars now have brand-new pics, for example) - however, the RDO pages still lack a lot of the basics that GTAO had from day 1.

 

For instance, it'd be nice if weapons were handled like garage cars in GTAO - imagine a page showing every gun you own (or at least the 10 or so last used, like GTAO does with cars), including info like metals/engravings, upgrades, usage stats, etc. I can check to see whether or not I've got tinted windows on my GTAO cars on Social Club, so why can't I do the same with gun customisation?

Same for overall stats - you can get an idea by sifting through awards progress, but eh, GTAO always had both awards progress pages and just a general list of career stats, and it'd be nice to have them all in an easy-to-read format.

Likewise for horses - imagine being able to check exact things like saddle details, visual customisation, all your current stable occupants, whether or not they're insured, etc. Right now, there's next to no point in checking Social Club, other than maybe keeping on top of awards progress, or checking your current money when out of the game.

If you were doing the legendary bounty in the swamps, the alligators weren't spawning when this bounty was first released, I looked myself. 

Try the Owlhoot Family bounty in New Austin, I always find deer in that one. 

 

ETA: I don't know about larger animals though, as I only hunt for 3 star carcasses. 

Also, can you skin any wolves on the wolf man bounty to get big game meat? I only did that one once and don't remember.

I installed from disk originally and it took ages. Now we have about twenty gigs of updates on top of that. I am Xbox One which downloads and installs the game and updates at the same time which clogs everything up.

Not if you unplug the router before putting in a disc lol

Then plug it back in once you start downloading, and the updates won't start until prompted.

 

 I did that with RDR 2 as GTA V took FOREVER to download because of that crap

Try the Philip Carlier legendary. Earlier this week it had both cougars and alligators.

I heard Marcel sh*t talks Cripps during sales dialogue but I've yet to see it.

I wanna record that just so I can smile at the fact people in universe hate that cunt as much as I do

[Foxwolfe]

Yeah one of the things is says is about not letting cripps into his kitchen because he's dirty lol.

Tbh I didn‘t encounter it the last few days, seems to be way less likely. Therefore I wasn‘t able to test if itstill works.

in the beginning of moonshiners it worked everytime.

quick question:

 

yesterday i finally started to actively play some rdo sessions (shootout etc)..

did i get this right that all players, no matter what aim-mode you have in your settings, play in the same lobbies? (free-aim with auto-aim players in same lobbies) ?!

True statement, even a casual gamer like me can make a very nice amount of money without grinding that much.

 

But R* need to understand that not fixing money-related issues (animals, cripps camp and so on, even though this has been improved) makes this game really annoying. In fact, I decided to reach rank 100 of the OP2 and then walk out until they seriously fix many issues, hoping that new updates won't bring others.

 

As for the rest, wanna make money? Ok, we all know you obviously need to earn something, so make us pay for all the updates but at least give us a smooth game. That's just my opinion.

been fishing for the swamp catfish, finally catch it, ride all the way to rhodes and the butcher isn't there? scan the map and every butcher isn't on there anymore! then the game disconnects me for the one millionth time....

I've had this bug a few times recently. 

 

The only time it really affected me was the day that catching a Northern Pike was a daily challenge, when I found out there was no butchers on the map I stowed it on my hunting wagon.

 

It's an annoying bug for sure though.

Red Ben Clempson has large animals but no predators.  Several moonshine missions have large predators, but the hunting wagon was removed shortly after the update because...no solo workarounds.  I think R* is so desperate to have us interact. 

 

I am actually not looking forward to heists in this game.  Its all but assured you will need to be on mic with another random person or have dedicated time to having solid players on the game.  If the legendary bounties and new moonshines missons prove anything, the cranked up difficulty is arbitary at best as the payouts seem the same.  At worst, its a plot to force player cooperation.

4th straight day riding around New Austin, West Elizabeth, and into the Heartlands with very few animals around.  Only found a turtle I needed for a resupply mission, and ONE raven today.

I've been playing poker at the end of my sessions, kind of like putting on PJs and going to bed in GTA, gives a sort of role play feel for me.

 

Anyway, what is wrong with people always max bidding before the flop?

A lot of times you'll get two of these asshats at the table.

That is NOT how you play cards. I mean sure you CAN do it, but you can also drink bleach, they're both really bad ideas.

And it's not that these guys have a pair of aces, OH NO!, when the reveal comes they have like a jack and a seven!?!?!?

And it's NOT a bluff if you do it every hand!

I repeat, that is NOT how you play cards f*ckwits!

You're just ruining the experience for everyone else.

 

When these goobers go broke and leave is a massive relief so then other players can relax and have a decent game.

The Alligators were all over the damned place with that bizarro bayou bounty hunt yesterday--I got killed by one and almost killed by another.  They are more dangerous than the crazy people in that mission.  However, there was not an option to skin the alligators after I killed them.  I also got killed by a bear yesterday next to O'Creigh's run or wherever that fishing hole is so big game was out and about on PS4 for me yesterday

The resupply missions forcibly spawns 1 of what you need now if you have not found it within 2 minutes.

Which is pretty nice actually.

The exact reason I've not played poker in game since the week it was introduced, the pre flop max bet players ruined it almost immediately.

 

I've been on 2, maybe 3, good tables, every other table has been a case of going max bet myself or watching the blinds slowly decrease my chips, so it's no fun either way.

Riding through the Grizzlies and kills two 3* bighorn rams.

 

Dismiss horse.

Can't call in hunting wagon.

Can't pitch camp.

Can't call horse back.

Stranded in the Grizzlies with 2 rams and nothing to carry them on.

 

Closes game.

[ghostsoap01]

When are we ever going to get the role outfits as individual pieces? R* mentioned they were looking into it a few months ago, but obviously that was total bs.

 

We get the hats, but nothing else from the outfit, how the hell does that make sense?!

 

Also R* mentioned that they would consider solo lobbies, if things weren't working in the current lobby system. That must have been bs as well, because the game is broken due to the lobby sizes, and yet R* has done nothing about it.

They won't separate the outfits, I just can't see them doing it, despite what was said.

 

As for solo lobbies, I've wait it before and I imagine I'll say it again, the only way I can see solo/invite only lobbies being introduced now is through a subscription like Fallout 1st. R* seem to be ideologically driven towards public only, and like most people/entities that are driven by an ideology, they can't see past it. The only driving force greater than their failing ideology is the almighty Dollar.

 

Us, the players, get f*cked either way.
