Banketelli 3,655 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 (edited) It's a no-brainer to think that R* in RDRO will try to continue to score big on micro-transactions, but just how will they do it in a game that's set in the 1800s and on top of that is placed in a univers that is way more grounded compared to GTA - a world where they've been able to come up with all kinds of expensive shit to sell us. While I often shake my head at the insane prizes, I understand that's what have ensured the longevity of the game. Without people purchasing sharkcards R* would have stopped adding new content long ago. Reason why I really do hope that they'll succeed in grabbing our money in RDRO. But for that they will need to come up with some good shit. So what exciting stuff do you think they can/will add to the world? Will they differentiate online from story mode making the world more wacky/crazy, whatever you're gonna call it, in order to being able to add more out-there items? And what could that be? One thing I think they will do is to follow the lastest trend of GTAO and add lots of million dollar businesses of different kinds.

Fido_le_muet 5,197 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 (edited) They will sell us businesses, carriages, boats, animals (horses), maybe even trains. Also weapons, clothes, boots, accessories, Probably a lot of hunting and/or farming activities. I think the rewards will be of a lowered amount compared to GTA. IIRC, you only got a few thousand $ in RDR after missions. Money making should be toned down to fit the time period.

Sinister 2,578 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 They will come up with plenty of ways to milk the game I forsee plenty of outlandish items being introduced that will piss some people off but cater to the demographic that R* loves most. Many GTA players I have seen don't seem too intetested in the wild west though so this may turn into an enjoyable experience. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banketelli 3,655 Posted October 21, 2016 Author Share Posted October 21, 2016 Trains would be cool. But don't see how it would work. At least not drivable ones. Maybe functioning as yachts in GTA; stationary train carriages as private quarters. I don't mind some outlandish items but it's a tightrope. Too much and you fuck up the feeling of the game. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinister 2,578 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Never played one of these before....what time period do they take place in? Lots of differences between 1800s old west and 1900s old west. Dynamite, Cannons, Gatling guns and various other weaponry could be very cool. No fighter jets or other OP stuff existed in either period though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinister 2,578 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 (edited) True but Ballons aren't exactly fast or easily maneuverable. Countering them should be much easier than a Harrier.

Beez 5,091 Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 From the train, guns, stagecoach and electric street lamps seen in the trailer, it appears to be set in the late 1880s early 1890s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurf 947 Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 (edited) The current RDR has all afore mentioned comments detailed, except for owning your own business in online, and having 15+ game modes similar in nature to GTAO. From the looks of the RDR 2 trailer I presumed its from a earlier time, due to a trophy in the current version where you kill all the Buffalo's. The online experience was and is still horrible in the sense of glitches that bogs down the game 80% of the time, but when its working just right its a fun play through with the XDBX Posse. I am mainly interested in watching the story of John Marston's time spent as a gangster. Edited August 20, 2018 by Smurf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
