But I agree about the baby sitting thing, I have like 305/1000 resupplies done but cba to do this award. If resupplies give materials, why can't I just do resupplies over and over again, as long as materials aren't full? 

You should get a resupply every 25 goods but half the time it skips it completely or you get it like 6 or more goods later.

Even using 2 ps4s it's still annoying, I have to make sure I do a supply on my main first, then join my alt's posse for a resupply.

If my main has a resupply and I join my alt's posse for a resupply my main camp gets supplied too but doesn't count as 2 resupplies done.

 

Its infuriating, if I buy Supplies I should be able to buy Materials as well. Or just bump the price of a Resupply upto fifty dollars and include 20 materials in it as well.

So yesterday I decided I was bored and decided to rack up a Bounty of $100 or more and to get the reach maximum bad honour award or whatever. Found I couldn’t sell any Moonshine with that amount of Bounty on my head, was a shame as I wanted to keep the bounty on my head as was having a lot of fun with bounty hunters! So had to pay off my bounty so I could sell Moonshine! Such a shame!

Yeah I thought the same, I expected it to be like GTAO's raids. 

 

The first time I got a Moonshiner raid was actually on my alt acc, at that time my alt has never done a sale (other than joining my main's posse, but never done a sale as leader) and didn't even own a bar!

Back when I used to play most of the day, I would get buyer rescues on my alt once every 2 days, more or less. I get them much less on my main.

I rarely sell moonshine now, but have a sale ready on both accounts for probably atleast 2 months now.

Might explain why I get raided on my alt quite frequently, but doesn't explain why my main doesn't them nearly as often.

That moonshine must be expired by now.

Wow, that's some crappy game play design right there.

 

I made 2 sales today, because I had a full batch ready and needed to make another for a daily, and for the distance and I drove the sh*te out  of it, sold exactly 1 jug, and still made $106 out of $206 for the second tier mix.

Second delivery I again drove the sh*te out of it, then switched sessions, then quit because i don't really need to do it again for a sale.

If it's still there tomorrow or if it's not I don't really care, I got my gold.

 

Did the same with the $$$ bounty yesterday: started then quit the game, still got the gold, and that's all I care about, not jumping through poorly designed hoops if I don't have to.

I'm sure they'll patch that soon...

Meanwhile the same collectibles are glitched that have been since the role was started.

Like the Titan glitch in GTA, it's not a priority for Scumstar.

Whomever designed that award was completely off his/her rails.

 Same for the turned in 1000 Alive Or Dead Bounty targets! They could have just merged the two and just had had the one award, but it’s a damn lot for only 0.40 gold and a buckle! Add the fact your having to turn in 10,000 targets for each award to max it out at 10!

If the award worked when you are in posse, 1000 isn´t that much but solo I would cut it in half!

Teaming with animal life, "random" events happening, loads of NPC's in towns, NPC's actually moving around performing their daily routines etc?

Yeupp! Even got a dog spawned for me!

[kcole4001]

Found an obvious cheater today, he was a dark red dot who followed me back into my camp with his lasso out, but was too slow, he left my camp but was skulking a little distance away, then thunder & lightning started, though the sky was perfectly clear.

His dot appeared on the map, the name was a black rectangle, and he wasn't on the player list at all, though by looking on the map, there is a view profile option, found a Chinese (I assume) name, and verified again that he definitely was not on the player list.

He was a member of G4TV crew, with over 400,000 members.

I took a screenshot with the profile box up on screen but it only showed the map in the pic, so that was useless for reporting.

Ever since I reset my character I've had animals and events spawning everywhere.  I'm almost afraid of starting a role because it might break the game again.

That is bonkers! I'm starting to think that online wasn't designed for current gen. I think it is either Trader or Collector broke online!

What if its like the face bugs we got when they redesigned the character creator? The people that made characters ended up with abominations that will never look as good as the ones made after. What if the bugs are baked into our characters?

It was really surprising to see how many animals are showing up.  It's almost near the same amount I had in beta.  If I'm in a region where its just me they are everywhere and if other people are near by it takes just a little bit for them to start showing when moving back and forth around that location.  I got convinced that my character was what was forcing them to appear and even had other players joining me to hunt when they noticed.

 

I wasn't entirely sure if R* fixed the issue just after I reset but I've seen plenty of people complaining about animal spawns since.  If we get an update I'm not sure if I even want to begin a role again.

It has been known for some time. I think it was in the tread for what we wish they would ad before moonshine update.

 

Before we got moonshine we could get lobby with so few as 15 players. Or was it when the game was in Beta?

 

There is plenty of bugs in the game and yet no patches.

[kcole4001]

In a solo session you can hardly move for the animals and NPCs.

You'd need at least 10 hunting wagons to try and keep up with it, it's just crazy, and you feel agitated because you know it can't last, you expect to get locked out of your shine shack every time you enter, you wonder if your camp will still be anywhere, let alone where you left it.

That's what months and months of a broken game do, you just don't know how to handle it when it's actually working properly.

Yessir. Once, in the Heartlands, I counted four separate flocks of geese in a ten minute, time span.

Even when there's relatively few critters in any given zone, I do notice PLENTY of wild horses.

And herds and herds and herds of Deer, Pronghorn's and even a couple of Moose at Little Creek, as well as the flocks of geese and ducks (except when you need to skin or pluck them on daily challenge days where they seem to disappear for me).

Only if they see the body... I have no issues at all with stealth kills.

Apparently they don't want you to try to stealth anything.

Even the small still missions you're guaranteed to get them alerted.

Doesn't matter how far away your first target is from the rest of the enemies.

If you need to get stealth kills for the dailies you can basically only count on one per mission, any more than that you're lucky.

Terrible mission design.

I’ve only managed to stealth poison the stills at Hanging Dog Ranch and Shady Belle, all the others are too close together, or at least they can hear me creeping, or there is an NPC in the same room as the still but facing the only way in!

Worst part is that they know exactly where you are as soon they spot the body! Better should have been that they are alerted about your presence BUT don´t know where you are!

[RyuNova]

No offence but you can complete the "Poison the Moonshine still" missions via stealth. I have done it many times. You can even complete the Moonshiner Story mission of the same objective via stealth.

There is one I haven´t figured out to stealthy is south of Emerald Ranch, north of the stable outside Rhodes. In a burnt down house.

Oh sorry, I see what you actually mean. It is annoying how they instantly know where everyone is when we have had actual stealth for decades. It is worse at the Ranch in Big Valley as the moment you get spotted or they see something the Maxim Gun opens fire.
