Lads I'm happy to report that online is all we hoped, as Dan and Sweey can attest. But Sweey you left before all the good stuff began!

Me and Dan decided to take a trip up to Tall Trees to hunt bears, which I've yet to encounter in the game. As soon as we enter Bearclaw Camp I'm astonished to see a rider being attacked by a bear. We dismount and I pull back as Dan stands on the edge of a small cliff, facing the bear coming at him. Little does he know two more just bypassed me and were running straight for him from the side. Now if ever I wish I'd have captured something for posterity it was my view as both bears dived on Dan, and went over the cliff with him. I thought I'd die laughing. I then shot the other bear and he goes over the ledge and lands on Dan's carcass at the bottom. I was really pleasantly surprised to see loads of bears fucking everywhere.

We then pressed on further into the snowy areas, with Moose and wolves, and got to the top of Nekiti (sp?) Rock, where lies a small cave with bones and shit inside. As I understand, this is where the big fuck-off Grizzly lives, and not Bigfoot as Dan suggested. We waited around for a bit, see if it turned up. It was getting dark in-game when Dan decided to leave. I think he was scared. I know I was. I suggest we go up tomorrow with a huge mob to exterminate the fat hairy cunt.

I need this game!

Damn man I want to see them bears, I'll go with you guys, send me a message when ready Barn. This map is sooo big it'll take us months to fully explore it!

21-05-2010, 06:44
you cunts know how to make a guy jealous!! Sounds amazing. Reading about dans death just made me lol in bed!!

Gonna get it as soon as game opens and give it a few hours play. We need an online session later!!

By the sound of it, i think i'll be putting more hours into this than i did fallout 3, and thats saying something. Exploring the map was a huge part of that, and i have no doubt i'm going to while away hours doing the same here!!

Fuckin' hell!

I was too busy earlier on throwing me and my horse off ridges and cliffs while trying to work out what bloody direction to go in to reach my destination.

Online seems bloody awesome though!

Jonno394
21-05-2010, 16:09
Played free-roam with barn for a few hours; plenty of laughs were had, my firm favourite was

"Jon..BEAR!"
"It's ok barn, I got it..."
"No you didn't"
"Jonno394 was mauled by a bear"

or perhaps shooting out the horses pulling our carriage and going flying??

Dan
21-05-2010, 16:24
I couldn't stop laughing at the run in with the bears last night. Just when you think you've got one handled, another pack will come out of fucking nowhere and maul you from behind. When I eventually stopped laughing I was about to run over to Barn when one killed me again, it then went and attacked a random civilian on a horse. He and the horse were dead before he even pulled out his gun.

I propose all of us with the game get online at some point tonight and run wild.

btw - When I put a marker on the map last night, could you guys see it? Or is only the leader's route shown?

Jonno394
21-05-2010, 16:39
Only the leaders route is shown. I'm gonna go back on and hit the singleplayer in about an hour, so will defo be up for multiplayer later tonight.

How exactly do you start the online posses?

pategato
21-05-2010, 17:34
Fellow posse members: expect PSN friend requests from me today.

Sweey
21-05-2010, 18:36
Let me know what time for multiplayer tonight. Or let us all know in here. Barn, last night when you invited me I didn't seem to get any sort of notification - I just went to the menu and next to "Online Invites" was the number 1 hence my turning up stupidly late.

Nifty1Pound50
21-05-2010, 19:05

Feel free to also add me, even though I don't yet have the game. Very soon, though.

Sweey
21-05-2010, 20:34
Barn says 9:30 though I might be a bit later. Basically, get him to invite you once you're in multiplayer mode.....and he is as well.

Setting up a posse seems to be centred around an individual (the leader) inviting people by clicking on them - I assume not inviting them to a specific game but perhaps doing so in the actual area? Not sure.

wrathchild_uk
21-05-2010, 22:49
I would be up for some multiplayer, how do I join?

Sweey
22-05-2010, 00:49
Have some of us as friends on PSN and when you're online and you know we're in multiplayer, request an invite. We can then invite you to join us.

BarnDoor
22-05-2010, 09:44
Last night's session was sort of disappointing. Partly my fault as I sense I missed the best part (I was on the phone from 9:30-10:15, which also accounts for why I forgot to invite one or two people), and by the end I think we lost focus and just killed each other. Really we need 8 or more people on and start some of those animal survivor missions and gang hideout/deathmatch modes. Also once we get the lassos and dynamite I sense things will get more entertaining. After the Champions League final seems a decent time. We should also go after some of the rare spawns:

http://reddead.wikia.com/wiki/Hunting#Hunting_Rewards

Also the fact that I was a cancer with my headset, when I was powering it up I don't think it was actually doing anything. And the sound was a bit off. Back to the instruction booklet I think.

Baddar
22-05-2010, 10:17
I might be on after the final too.

Sweey
22-05-2010, 10:22
Fuck the Champions League final. I wouldn't watch it if you paid me.

[/BITTER]

Barn, that snowy ledge was pretty nice though I half expected you to shoot me in the back of the head once I got there :/

If we go on a serious hunting mission, lets all agree beforehand not to kill each other during that. Doing it at other times is fair enough but not when we're doing particular things.

Berry
22-05-2010, 10:32
Yeah, it was good fun for the first hour or so, but after we came up against those banditos it got a bit dull, which is why I left to change my online character's appearance and then did a couple missions in Single-Player.

I'll be on straight after the Champions League, hopefully it doesn't go to extra-time and pens haha :tongue:

By the way, can you have 1-on-1 'face-off' duels online? That would be quality; contests to see whose reactions are best! :D

BarnDoor
22-05-2010, 10:40
Sweey I only did that because I was hoping you'd fall off. First time I've been up there.

It's odd, because sometimes you respawn in an area in between that mining town and the snowy area just before Nekoti Rock. But I've no idea how you get there naturally. Climbing cliff brings you to the other side with the mining town, but you can't get down. If you go down the other way it's too high to get back up again. I was hoping that tunnel that leads to the ledge would initially offer a solution to this.

I'm all for not killing people. I only kill Phat and Jonno because they can't seem to resist killing me. Having said that, I can't resist killing Donkeys. And I want a Bison as a mount as soon as possible.

Bez - you can before you enter the proper game modes. Me and Jonno had a few. He killed me twice and on the third we both killed each other, though I won for some reason.

You sure you can get the lassos online? Thought I read in a couple of places that you can't.


Reading through this thread is horrible if you don't have the privilege of having the game. Everything justs sounds so epic. Think one of my mates is getting it soon enough so I'll finally get to check it out.

Sweey
22-05-2010, 10:52
We should try some of the other game modes - doesn't one free-for-all mode start with all of us in a circle in a mass duel where the winner gets to pick their sniping place first?

If it gets dull we can sort something out in general. The mining cart area was fun because you had a particular, involving task rather than just killing everyone.

Dan
22-05-2010, 12:41
I didn't even get an invite last night, you lazy bums. I was about 90 minutes late mind.

I changed my character to a miner or something. Looks like something out of Deliverance.

Always send a PSN message to 2/3 people so one of them can get on the case.

That's why 2/3 might be better. Occasionally some of us won't see the message so its a safer bet for 2/3 as any of us can invite if e know how (Select -> R1 -> Triangle)

BarnDoor
22-05-2010, 14:43
Sorry Pategato I didn't see that. As I said let's try and get at least 8 on tonight.

Sweey
22-05-2010, 15:28
We should do some Gang Matches at some point tonight as well. I assume that's RDR's superior answer to FIFA 10's Club Mode. I think those modes have to be entered via one of the locations in the Free Roam area once we're all together.

BarnDoor
22-05-2010, 15:39
Sounds like a plan. I'd also like to try out that animal survivor mode I've heard about (you have to stand against waves of animals).

I think you're right about the lasso. That's a shame. Though I suppose it's to stop people hog-tieing players, since that would get very frustrating.

Still haven't been able to get hold of this yet, its been sold out wherever i've tried. Hopefully i will be online in the next few days, sounds like i'm missing out.

Dragonfly
22-05-2010, 16:38
Is it possible to name your own character, or do we have to settle for the default names? I originally made mine a fat Mexican, who looked hilarious riding on the (comparatively minute) mule. Now, I'm Doctor something, a black guy with Andre 3000 style hair.

pategato
22-05-2010, 17:20
There's no such thing as an animal survivor mode, the closest thing is going to tall trees and face packs of bears and wolves.

BarnDoor
22-05-2010, 17:21
Whilst that sounds good to me, are you sure? Because it's mentioned on the Red Dead wiki.

BarnDoor
23-05-2010, 00:39
While I enjoy the free roam, it is already becoming a little tiresome, I'm sorry to say. Apart from the assaulting gang hideouts, there's little in the way of orchestrated activities. Sure fighting bears and crashing wagons off bridges and cliffs is always a laugh (highlights of the evening for me was seeing Fab getting pounced upon by three bears at once and me crashing my wagon off the railway bridge, also taking Phat and his horse to their deaths), but there's only so much you do in this mode. There's not many people about, no trains, etc. Hunting for the rare animals will probably require a lot patience and bore people fairly quickly. I think it's wise of Rockstar to release this co-op pack at the end of the month. They would be wise also to add trains, lassos, and the same kind of random attacks and events you get in SP. Just make it more interesting.

I don't want to sound like I'm complaining about the game already - it's brilliant - but I think you're probably all feeling like this after a few sessions online. I know Jonno does, he grew tired last night. The free roam is a great concept but needs work I feel.

Sweey
23-05-2010, 00:43
That is very true. The only saving grace tonight was the Capture The Bag etc. mode games and while there are others, Free Roam needs some work. What we've not done yet is all gathered in Online Private, one of us moved to Online Public and invited everyone through and then tried some of the games. There must be ways to play against other gangs even if its only in the Capture The Bag etc. games.

fick
23-05-2010, 00:49
lassos

A major omission...

The hunting is dull... icing Jin with throwing knives has so far been the highlight.

The Strongholds are fun, but too easy with 3 or more people... needs to be a bit better balanced.

pategato
23-05-2010, 00:51
There's a gang death match. We should try that. And you guys need to use your headsets too.

Appswah

me fick and jin went looking for the 'rare spawn' bear..we found a few caves and place to climb high and shit but no bear in sight :/

maybe tonight then we all meet up on a private one, get the posse sorted, then go publice and rape some people/other posses playing in free roam?

the capture the gold mode is brilliant, that with 16 people could be a laugh.

BarnDoor
23-05-2010, 10:17
I think Jonno's right; going into a public arena and fighting other posses would probably offer the best challenge and presumably some entertainment.

I felt the same on the first day, but hen again, we were playing pretty much non-stop for 12 hours. I'm looking forward to hog tying other online gamers and tying them to train tracks (it would be annoying if they could quit before getting hit and disappear). I'd also love to see the result of tying people to the back of trains and being dragged off into the distance. Or even lassoing a train and see what happens.

maybe tonight then we all meet up on a private one, get the posse sorted, then go publice and rape some people/other posses playing in free roam?

Yeah, I think going private for a bit would be a good idea. We can get used to each other and possibly arrange games and battle tactics, then use it in public games.

BarnDoor
23-05-2010, 11:51
Except you can't use the lasso online, and the train doesn't function.

I suggest we make up games. Things like form a line on horseback, bolt it to the cliff, and shoot our own horses in the head just before we get the edge. Hilarity prevails, I'm sure you'll agree.

Dragonfly
23-05-2010, 11:55

I'm sure (hope) we can do it off-line, though.

Yeah, we'll probably going to have to make our own games up until they release the co-op mission packs in June, or whenever it'll be.

Perhaps we can play chicken? Find two horse carts and charge at each other?

I'll be playing single player while I let my headset charge.

BarnDoor
23-05-2010, 11:59
Oh offline you can. Offline you can do many things, which unfortunately you can't online. Even playing the games would have offered some enjoyment.

Sweey
23-05-2010, 12:29
I won't be on tonight - planning to go to bed at 9/10 so I can get up and watch Lost at 5am followed by work.

The ideas sound good though and more entertaining than some of what we've had so far. The start of last night was entertaining for me - I had a bounty of $445 on my head and posse's were coming look for me. The Mexican Army had failed miserably to kill me and I completed the challenge Outlaw I, presumably by killing a specific number of lawmen.

Ok I managed to get me hands on a PS3 but she's got a busted laser. :/

Am thinking I might be able to work off downloaded games if I got an account going and if so how much do they charge online to download and how does it work?

Original?
23-05-2010, 16:08
I was rather unimpressed with the online mode, in the capture the bag mode I wasn't really sure what I was doing to begin with, then you can capture a bag despite the enemy having yours... this mad it a little rubbish with low numbers. The free roam mode doesn't have enough structure, I would suggest we arrange objectives before everyone runs off. To be honest, I was enjoying the single player much more than the online feature so far.

No discussion of this in relation to warez downloading in the open forums or you'll get an immediate ban.

What the hell? :mellow:

I was on about downloading it off the official PS3 store via the console in a hope of by passing the dodgy blue ray laser as that seems the be the problem, PS2 and DVDs play fine on it.

Totally agree. It's up to the gamer to make online fun. We'll probably have to be creative until the co-op missions are released.

If instead of shooting each other with no reason, we set up a proper cooperative game, the multiplayer would be 100x better.

Last nite I teamed up with a group that was playing the gangs hideouts, in a very organized fashion, multiplayer in this game has no rival so far.

BarnDoor
24-05-2010, 12:06
Yeah but that gets a little boring after a while. I think it's laughs we're looking for. That's why we end up attacking bears with knifes, crashing wagons off cliffs, etc.

Dave!
24-05-2010, 12:29
So i finally got the game today and will be adding everyone in the group sometime today.

24-05-2010, 13:19
Someone needs to start a public session then invite everyone else before we do anything. That way we're more likely to have run-ins with other players.

It would be nice if we planned what we were going to do before we actually went online too. Wandering around aimlessly gets boring really fast and I'd rather just stick to the single-player if that's all we're going to do. Team games are decent enough, but not when there's only 4 people playing.

Can't we set up some games with some other posses from that wiki page? Surely there's a way to organise something.

Agreed. Or, enough people with headsets to have an actual discussion about what to do. The team games will be fine with enough people online.

Well if he was using dead-eye, he seemed to have it all the time.

If we went public, would more people join the games? I don't think we've ever had more than 6 on at once.

Last night was epic: a proper battle between posses!
Barn, you should make an entry in your journal about the "Battle of El Presidio" (That's the name of that mexican fort)
At the end we won because all those idiots ran away. :cool:

I see you had enough very quickly Original.

Tonight I thought was a pretty good laugh, though of course it lacked focus. Problem is, Original, aside from attacking hideouts and fighting the law there's no plan that can be devised, except doing bullshit stuff.

Do you not all use headsets? :ohmy:

BarnDoor
26-05-2010, 11:03
Some of us do.

Yes.

The way I do it with guys from EWB is just create a private game, invite everyone into it, get your posse formed, move into the public room and then choose Team Gang games using select. The 'leader' should automatically take everyone in the posse with him both times.

Sweey
26-05-2010, 15:30
Works for me. I'll try and get online tonight - started playing SWOS two nights ago and last night discovered the horror that I no longer have the amazing formations I created in 1995 so will need to do them all from scratch.

BarnDoor
26-05-2010, 15:48
Fuck SWOS, we need as many men as possible.

Berry
26-05-2010, 15:54
Tonight? I may be on, probably not when all you guys come on though due to school.

I'll be up late at weekend though for sure like most weekends haha.

Phatmann
26-05-2010, 18:55
Towards the end last night, the multiplayer was finally pretty decent. Going into a public game once we have our posse together then wreaking havoc is the way forward. If we can get more numbers on it could be great.

Potato should've been throwing more dynamite at that American dude though when he was raping us. We were struggling to win back the fort for a while but eventually we triumphed.

pategato
26-05-2010, 19:59
LOL, call me that again and I'll be throwing dynamite at you tonight :cool:

BarnDoor
26-05-2010, 23:25
Why did everyone fuck off so quickly? I know I had trouble getting back into the game - did other people?

I thought it was a decent laugh while it lasted, though I think if you're in a posse the game should automatically put you in a game with another, similar sized posse, as otherwise it's little more than a private match.

Yep, had problems. Then I was eventually able to join after an invite from Phatmann but the moment I got to the game it started synchronizing again and wouldn't stop.

I agree about the matching rules: it should find you a posse if you're part of one. It was a decent session.

Phatmann
26-05-2010, 23:36
Just before I left we got in a game with a posse of 3 and another posse of 2. The posse of 3 were right by the fort as were we but by the time we got in the fort they'd ran off down one of the roads round the back of the fort. I think it's best off if one person finds a free roam with a lot of people in then invites others, like I did in that game. If we have a decent number in our posse, it's likely to pair us with only 1 or 2 other people.

Fab
27-05-2010, 19:24
How are you guys finding the online play now? I went on once with you all but it got boring and repetitive very quick. I only remember one funny bit which barn mentioned when I got taken down from my horse by a bear, then three bears mulled me with no time to run away.

BarnDoor
27-05-2010, 22:27
We need more fags. Jonno, this betrayal shall not be forgotten.

I assume you had a quality time without anyone killing each other seeing as I was not online lol.

BarnDoor
28-05-2010, 11:46
No, because there was only 3 of us. To be fair it got interesting when more people came on, but they all had better weapons and to be honest I was brutally raped.

Their weapons were infinitely better. The first one had a rapid-fire pistol though getting on my horse and charging him with my shotgun often worked. It was fun for the most part but more of us need to be on.

28-05-2010, 19:17
Anything planned for tonight?

No, our RDR mutiplayer died a slow and tragic death unfortunately.

chelsea11
04-06-2010, 10:13
Got the game yesterday, but as I see the multi-player part has committed suicide. I don't think I could pry myself away from single player anyway though. I'm sure this could pick up again near the end of the summer, so I shall be waiting.

Co-op online multiplayer: DLC announced for June 22nd.

Dale you're a gash mountain. Not only for doing that, but posting for posting about it in this thread.

Sadly the Cuntsboro' Creek Gang seems to have died, for reasons already discussed. Hopefully Rockstar have taken on board the widespread criticism of Free Roam and will attempt to rectify it in future DLC.

pategato
04-06-2010, 22:44
We can't let it die guys!!! come on!!
We need to go to the gang matches and show everyone else we alive and fighting!!
We need to stop doing stupid shit like jumping off cliffs and shit like that, the fun is not there guys......
Long life to the Cuntsboro posse!!!!

muscularmatt
04-07-2010, 04:14
Does nobody play this anymore or what then? It's only a few weeks old and seems like no one gives a shit already??

Jonno394
04-07-2010, 11:17
I've gotten 100% in single player and the multiplayer still blows at the moment, so i won't be playing it again any time soon, until new SIngle Player DLC comes out.

Dan
04-07-2010, 13:12
Did you guys end up playing the co-op DLC that came out?

pategato
04-07-2010, 13:25
Tried to play the new DLC but it's got a shitload of bugs and glitches.

muscularmatt
05-07-2010, 00:55
What's so shit about the multiplayer then? I only went on it once and found it boring because there was no one I knew online.

Jonno394
05-07-2010, 18:09

Yeah there is really bad lag when it comes to enemies moving, so you could shoot exactly where they are, but the shot wont register because they're not actually there.......shocking. Stick to offline DLC rockstar, please!!!

http://reddead.wikia.com/wiki/Posse:The_Cuntsboro_Creek_Gang

Rumours of the break up and demise of the Cuntsboro Creek Gang seem greatly exaggerated.

Some have departed. 'Handsome' Dan Clifton is missing, presumed dead, last seen partaking in high-stakes poker games down in Wankton. Rab 'Mullet' Taylor went back to Scotland and was tragically killed in the First World War. Timmy 'The Mick' O'Rourke was executed for his part in the Easter Rising. Nathaniel 'Sully' Sullivan contracted tuberculosis and is believed terminal. 'Steady' Dave McLintock was tracked down and brutally dispatched by the sons of Nick 'The Slasher' McGuirk. Miguel 'Miggy' Santiago Ramirez fled back over the border after murdering three missionaries in cold blood. His current whereabouts are unknown, though he has been spotted colluding with known revolutionary and one-time associate Pancho Villa.

The rest are believed active. Virgil Barndoor has resurfaced down Texas way and has put out the call. The question is, how many of his old boys will answer?

You can't leave me with these other fags.

I will make an appearance on Sunday if enough are about.

Just make sure you bring the dynamite Pategato...

I might pop in this time. Need a name though.

Sweey
19-04-2012, 20:46
What's going to stop this getting boring after two nights like last time?

BarnDoor
19-04-2012, 21:06
A possible idea - perhaps we could limit it to once a week, every Sunday? If it proves successful, we could try it more regularly.

'The Preacher' Elvin Bishop.

Dale C.
21-04-2012, 21:13
Maybe I wouldn't have gotten bored if Phatmann hadn't kept killing me and robbing my donkey.

BarnDoor
22-04-2012, 19:04
So is this happening later, about 9 (UK time)?

Dale C.
22-04-2012, 19:08
Need to fecking get the game again first.

BarnDoor
22-04-2012, 19:31
Christ. Phat doesn't have it either. Should we put this off till next week then? That will also give Sminky and that selfish bastard Sweey time to get the game.

Michu
22-04-2012, 21:00
I won't have the game until Next Friday at the earliest, providing this is going to happen of course.

Bammers05
22-04-2012, 21:02
Going on now. If there's no-one else, I'm gonna play Clubs instead

Original?
22-04-2012, 21:04
Well unless you're planning to ravage BarnDoor, put Fifa in instead.

BTW TNT gone when I deleted the save...:doh:

BarnDoor
22-04-2012, 22:12
The word is out now so I expect people to be on next Sunday. We need Pategato with his TNT otherwise it won't be anywhere near the same.

Phatmann
28-04-2012, 17:08
I got the game mid-week so will we still be going on tomorrow evening? I'll probably go on anyway as I've yet to play the game.

Bammers05
28-04-2012, 17:10
I'm up for it tomorrow night :naughty:

I'm also looking forward to playing some RDR :huh:

Yes. Haribo and Joel are hereby declared outlaws and never allowed into this gang.

Frank Sweey was violated by his horse and left for dead in the desert, unable to walk properly due to the soreness of his arse. He may die out there, never to meet up again with his former comrades.

BarnDoor
30-04-2012, 10:58
Apologies for leaving abruptly, but I thought it was a decent laugh. It'll be better next week if we can get more people on and take part in a game with other players. Also I need dynamite, and someone needs to get the bison mount.

Jonno394
30-04-2012, 11:10
Who played, what did you do? Should I bother coming next week?

BarnDoor
30-04-2012, 11:35
Yes. I'll have dynamite and we can kill Sminky and his donkey.

Phatmann
30-04-2012, 12:23
Perhaps we could do some co-op missions next time? I tried some with Bammers which looked decent but with only two of us playing we got annihilated. I remember the mission we did back in the old days where we had to push the cart along was good fun. Also, it could be a good way of levelling up.

I don't know if they had it before but I liked the fact that all the tomahawks Barn threw at me stayed in me when Barn failed to finish me off. The shootout with Mak was good fun too but I'm sure he'll disagree.

Bammers05
30-04-2012, 13:22
I think we need to synchronize the jumping off the bridge, so we all do it at the same time. Could be lolz if we were in a shootout with another posse and then we all just jumped off the bridge. They wouldn't know what's hit them!

Anyway, I think we should go and find a free roam, where there are other posses next time, as then you can do the 'capture the building'-type games.

BarnDoor
30-04-2012, 14:17
If we get more on (upwards of 8), we could feasibly divide into posses and go at it.

Jonno394
30-04-2012, 14:42
I still have my bluetooth headset that I bought exclusively for this game. I hated using it.

Haribo
30-04-2012, 15:00
I should really start playing. :facepalm:

I take it you can jump right into online (from a main menu)? As opposed to GTA IV where you had to access it via the mobile phone.

Phatmann
30-04-2012, 15:19
Yes, on the main menu there is a "multiplayer" option. Would be great if we could take over that fort again and defend it against other posses with the cannons.

Bammers05
06-05-2012, 20:14
We having another session of this tonight?

Phatmann
06-05-2012, 20:31
