A survival mode sounds great! I didn't expect this mode + the new opportunity mission so soon especially since there was a 2 week gap between first and second mission.

[Shadowfennekin]

I'll save this contract for next week. That hat is hideous btw lmao

 

Survival.... how they word it turns me off. I ain't a goodie goodie so I won't even touch it. There is no "Come to aid" you either pay me or I let you die! He only cares about himself and his husky doggo

[TheOriginalGunslinger]

If there isn’t a “Call to Arms” play area in Fort Brennand they are missing out there. As for this week... sticking up saloons for that cap.. cap.. capitale should be fun the first few tries.

 

Still scratching my head after almost reaching the 3 year mark we can’t open our vests on our character. I can’t even rock the Pike Bishop look properly.

 

Also, did anyone get the free “off-hand holster” of your choice during last week’s opportunity on the first run? Never received my coupon or unless it’s there today. I haven’t booted up online yet.

Call to Arms? Sounds interesting...

"Stick up the saloons of St. Denis?"

 

Then they don't elaborate about that, at all?

[Buddy Hightower]

What comes after this? a few more mini-outlaw passes and that's the entire update???

lol

You can't make this stuff up.

Ruthless Method for people who keep die in like i did ( Sawed-Off Shotgun for close range and Lancaster for long rang are a bolt action as your going to need that at the beginning of the mission! Now dead eye cards paint it black & Passive eye for an eye , strange medicine & cold blooded ! Now opposite the rhodes bar next to the train tracks there is trees etc now how i did it was use my dead eye and tonics (make sure you have them) Then i run in cycles like a tryhard in gta online and stayed alive then the targets run out the door where your facing make sure to shot them! Then loot him then u have the wagon location, on the way there make sure u have tonics , then kill the drivers of the wagon then once again u need tonics on the way to the drop off thats on ruthless its hard as f but any difficult before then its easy hope this helped

Yes they did, it's a new crime mission series with 3 parts. It's simply more stranger missions.

Whew. I was concerned. Just this morning I was thinking RDO just doesn’t have enough stranger missions. 

[Direwrath]

Bet that Call to Arms bit is going to be something you need other players to do it with, and of course we're gonna get the normal dynamite chuckers who think it's hilarious to tick off the other players by blowing them up.

[HipHopHead]

Holy crap I think that Opportunity is the hardest solo mission I have played online and I have played them all.  Granted I just went in guns blazing, so many dudes to kill.  Barely made it out of there.

Looking forward to see what the survivsls serve up. Hopefully some good new fun to come.

Yup. Awe inspiring, innit.

[4eyedcoupe]

How ugly is the hat you that unlock the privilege to buy if you complete the mission on ruthless?

[YNNEL]

 what’s the best strategy for this? I can’t do it

[BUT THE BENZ]

well HOW precious is this "gem", exactly?! will the payout be enough to cover my stable-fees for a month or two?!

[Dr.Rosenthal]

Completely slipped my mind that I bought the Outlaw Pass and totally forgot to play since to level it up, lol. Goes to show the hype I’m feeling for this game, I guess (and I really do love so many aspects of it). Even now, thinking I should get back on to at least get my Gold back, I honestly don’t think I can be arsed..

Lol, sad but we are being robbed by those stable fees by the way. How many times I've taken my precious babies out for a ride only to find that they need to be groomed and fed. What are we paying for, the stall? For those fees our horses should have gold cores and clean coats when we get them out.

 

So is this the last gem? Or are they going to give us a new update where we are tasked to do certain things to get these gems where they need to go? I haven't done this last mission yet, waiting for the weekend to play, but this just seems like it was rushed.

You know Bronte is going to screw us eventually, make that a whole new problem for us. Please I need some resistance in this game that isn't coming from explosive tossing, controller-cheat happy players!!

Oh boy, sounds like this one is going to be a good one. I cannot do the sneaky sneak thing for the life of me, tried it with the dock mission and my poor outlaw ended up being tackled into the water the whole time, good thing my posse was able to get the job done. I didn't even get to step onto the boat.

 

Kind of hard to be sneaky with my spurs all going jingle jangle.

[zPhoenix]

If you are into crazy shootouts this one is for you.

 

But as far as I'm concerned this opportunity and the new missions leading to it are the worst of the bunch.   I did not see a way to do it with stealth or even with methodic cleanup.   I got my Ruthless completion and have zero plans to go back to them.

 

The dockside series  were the best.  And I absolutely loved Annesburg for stealth in normal mode.
