Red Dead Redemption

[thedon5]

Anyone looking for some online play (PS3)? I just want to see what it's like having a big posse, having an 8 person PC posse would own and we'd get a trophy too!

I'm gonna buy a mic soon. They were sold out when I went to buy RDR, so I'll probably get one in a month or so.

Yeah, one day we could. Maybe on a weekend, say on a Saturady morning for the Aussies and Kiwi's and then it'll be Friday Night for UK and USA.

@Matt: when did you get those pictures? I haven't yet?

 

[mattfb]

In a stranger mission in Blackwater. "American Lobbyist".

 

[Covvy]

No wonder I haven't done it. School holidays are over now for us so I won't have as much time to play. Just doing the challenges and stranger missions now to get 100%. I'm enjoying the hunting and stuff almost more than the actual story!

Will I be the first from PC to get 100% on RDR? I only need to do two more bounties, win poker in Blackwater and go for the US Marshal outfit...

 

[pcfan123]

wow dude, i plan on getting 100 but I am no where near close. Expect lots of questions from me if you do hit that 100%

I think this game is easily better than all the GTA's except Vice City

I'm loving this game. There's just so much to do! And yes, hunting is fun. The real-time weather effects are amazing as well. It's cool when you take your horse up onto a cliff's edge and look at the view, and then a storm blows in.

 

[mattfb]

Getting close AJ! I'm on 78%, still quite a bit to go.

 

[Covvy]

I think I'm on about 73%. Around rank 4-5 in the challenges and still got a few stranger missions to do.

 

[mattfb]

Gotta buy all the propertys (not rent ones), get all outfits, discover all areas, do all hang hideouts, buy all rare weapons, do all the challenges, do all bounties and all stranger missions etc for 100%. Gonna take me a while

For one outfit you need to complete all the gang hideouts in USA in under 24hours game time.

 

[ajdude]

99% exactly, need to win poker in Blackwater (which is proving to be a bitch) and need to do the US marshal outfit, which is what matt described in the last post.

It's what you get for not having a life and playing ~40 hours of it, hahaha.

If only John could swim.

John needs a good freestlye swimming technique like Ezio in AC II.

Free Roam is AWESOME. I just did all the gang hideouts in one session and went from Blackwater to Somewhere else, for two trophies.

I was trying to get public enemy for 10 minutes too, it was bloody hard. I found a hiding spot in Blackwater while I had a bounty of $2000+, I was in cover, and the flinging guy gets me when I'm in cover while I have only a minute or two left .It was fun though.

There is an easier spot to do it mind you. I'll probably try that with a mate.

Can't wait to start single player.

 

[mattfb]

Yeah I did a few of the outlaw challenges on free roam. Gonna try get a few achievements from doing things online.

100G - Redeemed (Y)

Finally beat the ████ in Blackwater in Poker, it took me three hours, and I lost more than once, but it's done. Did the US Marshal outfit to finish it, took me 1 day, 17 hours, 34 minutes and 25 seconds in total. (Y)
