I can't seem to complete the I know you mission. Hopefully this doesn't go towards the 100% or I'll end up on 99.9% I think he dissapears when you become Jack Marston.

drat I threw 2 horseshoes on top of the thing, and the drat things didn't fall down so they didn't count as ringers.

I was messing around Tumbleweed and found out that in the church, someone has written "The Devil has gotten into that beast" on the face of the preacher's pulpit. Mighty disturbing thing to find in a ghost town. (it wasn't a cheat code unfortunately)

Did anyone figure out what the text scrawled onto the wall of the U shaped mine to the west of the L missions in Mexico was? I think it was "To the root of all evil, we thank you!" but it didn't seem to be a cheat code?

Apocadall posted:I don't know if its just me or it happens for everyone but (ENDING) When I went to go hunt down the guy for the final mission where hes duck hunting, there was a massive lightning storm raging. When it came time to duel it just looked awesome having rain and lightning adding to the dramatic effect. Yea I had that too, I'm not sure if how scripted the weather is because it seems so natural most of the time, but it sure is awesome. Also how good was it blasting Ross away, I was so gutted when he killed John that playing as jack I went from hero of the west to bank robbing cop murdering villain. Would have been nice to have an alternate ending though, jack sucks rear end.

Wasn't no lightning storms, pardners, but cinematic all the sames.

This may have been posted before but in case it hasn't, here is some of the music from the game. http://thewoundedjukebox.wordpress.com/2010/05/22/the-music-of-red-dead-redemption/ The Jose Gonzalez one plays just as you enter Mexico, I know its kind of sad, but at that moment the sun was going down and everything seemed just lovely. Also is it just me or after flowers for a lady if you go into his shack he blasts his wife's head clean off, unfortunately I didn't go back in until I heard the bang, but her head was rolling on the floor.

After I finished that quest and walked out of the cabin we were both attacked by wolves and he ran off into the distance screaming "Oh Jimminy!" Also I am unable to resist pushing the guys who sit on the upper deck railing of the saloon in Armadillo over the edge. You don't lose any honour for it so I can only assume the gods approve.

I'm having an issue with the sharpshooter challenge. I've been popping rabbits left and right but none of them are counting towards the challenge. Do I have to kill them in a certain manner/with a certain gun or something? I'm shooting for 100% so this is a pretty stupid roadblock.

Last night my friend/co-worker calls me late at night and asks for backup in free roam because a posse is riding on him. I join the game and we proceed to put those suckers down until they leave. I had a bunch of kill streaks going and they were like 10 levels above me. Justice is served. Rusty posted:Anyway, time to read the spoilers and see if the story is in any way interesting. I think one thing that ended up helping in my decision to sell it was the "I know you mission". People here seemed to think it was really something special but it wasn't any more interesting than any of the other stranger missions. That's because you have to finish the game to get the payoff for that mission, otherwise it is almost meaningless. It was just "eh" to me, but once I finished the game and it tied together it became my favorite Stranger quest. Also shaking my head at the moron asking about where to find beavers not even 20 posts behind a half page discussion on where to find them.

Crooked Vulture posted:Looking for a few quick ideas on getting 100% if anyone's finished that. Right now I'm at 99.5% and havent found anything to move it in a while. I tried going back to do bounties, and got a few in Chuparosa before they started repeating/not giving anymore %. I went to Armadillo and Blackwater and got repeats as well. I have all the species, challenges, jobs, gambling, and outfits. Did I miss a place for bounties possibly? Should I keep doing repeat bounties hoping a new one or named one pops? All 3 locations kept giving the ??? bounties. Also, my horseshoes winnings were negative, could that possibly be it? Even though its only .5% left, I feel like I'm probably missing something big. You're probably missing a stranger. There are 18 that count towards completion and one that doesn't so if you have 18 listed that's it. For me (and other people) it was Aztec Gold - located in Sidewinder Gulch. I was at 99.5% too, so I'm guessing that's it.

Get a bear to follow you. I don't think they'll go into towns but you can lead them close. It's kinda like herding cattle except the 'cattle' want to murder you. I managed to get two all the way from tall trees to the outskirts of blackwater where they proceeded to maul everything that came along the road. Bears are angry.

Did anyone else murder Ross's family after talking to them? I shot his wife after she told me where he was, and then his brother after talking to him. gently caress 'em. I also went from honorable hero of the west to murderous villain after becoming Jack.

Not sure why people are having so much trouble finding beavers (other than being goons!!!  ), but I was finding them by the bucketload near the trees along the river in NE elizabeth.Skunks were the real annoying ones. Had to go all the way down to Mexico for those bastards. And cougars, of course. Up to 99.4%. That means only 6 or 7 more wanted posters.

Bloody Hedgehog posted:Heh, they seemed to realize this as the story goes on, as you start to encounter more missions where they don't talk during the ride and it just gives you the option to skip to your destination. True, but you learn a LOT about Marston in the Mexico conversations, actually. Like the fact that he has a son named Jack who is a teenager, and that he has a farm that's actually in West Elizabeth. There's a lot of foreshadowing in this game, if you pay attention.
