Aw, that actually makes me feel bad. :(

I've seen one respawn, but a hunter was chasing it so it may have only came back from extinction as an NPC event.

That's a really good point. This might actually be the best cultural commentary in the game. That one Indian dude even gives you the "You realize you're just senselessly killing these Buffalo for fun, right? You're going to ruin everything." speech on the way to a mission.

Then, here we all are, blowing the fuckers away for an Achievement.

I was kind of hoping that some car would drive by and throw trash at his feet during that part.

So (late game spoilers) Dutch is dead and I'm a farmer now. I decided to go to Blackwater and see if there was anything to throw a loving knife at in the building where you get the "R" missions. I opened the door, and








it's turned into a time vortex.

Any tips on how you got it to work cos I tried on the 360 for quite some time. Do you have to hold right as you double tap RB? and how quickly do you aim?

Don't hold right on the stick. Moment you're at the edge of the logs, you can let go of the analog stick. Aim the moment you start going upwards.

Well that might be my problem. Before I jump to conclusions about console differences though, I should probably test it out again. I was trying it in single player, that might have prevented it from working correctly.

It only works in Multiplayer from what I've experienced. I find that triggering the glitch is inconsistent at times, but I can confirm that aiming increases the altitude that you'll reach (longer you hold the aim button, the higher you'll climb). I tend to attach to the logs, go all the way to the right, and then just repeatedly tap the attach to cover in differing frequencies until I launch.

Jesse was the best Gud damn gun i ever had.
So today i decided id go to single player to see people get ran over by a train like always. i grabbed some hooker nobody noticed and drove her away from town where a decided id throw on the track and wait like always. I hear the train coming and cant wait to see her guts go flying! Little did i know i see only 10 feet away an intersection for horses and waggons to cross. Seeing the train get closer i get excited to see her die. Little did i know a man on a wagon comes out of the blue and fails to stop intime before the train violently tosses the wagon and kills everything. As the wagon is flying out of control in the hookers direction, It hits her knocking her off the track by a few inches to where she couldnt get ran over, im in shock at the result. upset as i am i decide to leave her where only 15 seconds after a pack of wolves rip her to shreds while she was still tied up.

Well see, I didn't even know there was a place called Hangman's Rock, so that's why I was confused. :) How can I have played this for 36 hours and still not know all of the locations, you ask?

It just gave me a hat. I was wearing the gentleman's suit which has no hat. That was my favorite suit until I found the poncho.

I was also walking in the bottom right corner of the map in mexico and got really lost, and ended up walking in a canyon I shouldn't have walked into with my horse and we got stuck in a ridge, which apparently opened up to a system of caves below it, but the horse was screaming and john was screaming like we had been falling to our death the whole time we are stuck. I got off my horse and he tripped and fell and rolled out of the small crack we got stuck in and died from falling.

I also got hit by the train the Mexicans tried to rob and got stuck under it, tumbling under the train for like 5 minutes screaming the whole time until it reached the bridge and blew up.

Blaargh I just spent all day finishing the story because I expected it to end several hours before it did. They really draw it out. Hell, all of Mexico was kinda unnecessary. Going to have a nap after I finish this post.

But most amazing video game experience ever. Too buggy, and too long, but you can't beat the writing/use of music/graphic touches.

I never thought I'd even like a Western game. I played "Gun" for about 20 minutes and never touched Revolver. But this one really sucked me in, and as a non-American, helped me understand the roots of the current southern US attitudes towards things like government and gun control (even though I am in British Columbia which was even more "wild west" in 1911).

Not freezing, but mine is getting seriously buggier the longer I play it. Maybe overheating is causing some problems, I have no idea. I've got some serious issues with textures and models streaming off the bluray now. I just had a duel with a dude who was a super low res model, like something you'd see on a PS1 game. It finally loaded the models just before it presented me with DRAW! so I guess I'm lucky he even had an arm for me to shoot at.

Not sure why you said that or what tone you meant it in, but I think the lawless, structureless society of the west not that long ago has more to do with current cultural differences than the civil war. The civil war was a result of those cultural differences, not the cause.

The only bugs I have had so far were riding the lift down into the mines at Gaptooth Breach - John fell on his back and wiggled around grunting all the way down. I guess the game thought he was falling but it seemed like maybe he had ants in his pants.

The second bug occurred when I jumped off a train and fell through the world. That one required a reload.

I'm hoping it won't degenerate into more and more serious bugs but maybe they'll be hilarious at least.

One time I was getting the treasure to the north of chuparosa, then I went to the town. once inside the town I strolled around, then jumped up on a wall. Cue john teleporting like a mile away and innocuously climbing up a really low-res wall right next to the treasure. Like he moved through all the scenery really fast and the climbing animation kept playing except I was in the middle of a really low-res area now and was all the poo poo. It took it like a solid minute to stream all the terrain.

I don't think I've ever seen a bug in this game that didn't please me greatly.

Yeah I had the same thing happen: They all go "You've got experience setting stuff up like this right? Of course you do, now do it!" So I just kinda guessed where to set the explosives. I was waiting for the people in the back to go over the first one, and then I could go BOOM BOOM BOOM and maybe get all of them. Of course Luisa flipped out, told me I blew it, and everyone fired. Thanks a lot. Apparently you need to start blowing up once the first people go over the first one and the way I had it set up made the rest of the explosives useless if I did that.

It's funny, because I had the explosives set like that on the side of the road, in one long line. I waited for everyone to file past, then set them all off. Only a couple guys were left, so I cleaned up and completed the mission just fine.
