I didn't do it.
For people having trouble with Lairs Dice here's what I did. Always tell the truth of what you rolled. Say you rolled 2 twos and 2 sixes. Choose 2 twos for your fist bid. If somebody chooses a higher die then say you have 2 sixes. Doing that every time will force them to call bullshit on you a lot and they will lose their dice fast. When they are low its easy to tell if they are bullshitting you. Also say you roll 3 of one number then always say you only have 2 of them then if you have to say you have three. They almost always call bullshit on you after the first turn and will lose their dice and if not then they will after the second turn. If you never lie they will always screw themselves over. Of all the games I played not once did they say I was spot on. Once I figured this out it only took me one game to get the achievement where you have to win without losing a die.


I hope that makes sense. If not let me know what to clarify.

Edit: also when they are low on die often they will say there are more of a type of a dice on the table then they have when they do that just call bullshit on them. It is usually pretty obvious.

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong re: getting "I Know You?" I'm about 12 missions into the story on a new game (didn't even know this mission existed til after i'd beaten the game) and yet still the stranger isn't spawning. It's near the Water and Honesty stranger right? Anyone have like a stranger map that can show me exactly what i'm doing wrong?

The first time you see him, he is next to the cliff around Hennigan's Stead, directly South of Mescalero on your map, as you come up from Armadillo on your way to MacFarlane Ranch.

Created a quick little map, here's his general location:

Speaking of beating the poo poo outta this game, how come it took so long for me to find cool new gang matches? I was already done with Single Player and Lvl 45 or so before I ever got the Diez Coronas Hold Your Own match which was incredible, and I haven't gotten it again since. Then last night sitting at Lvl 50, we got a Grab The Bag in Twin Rocks all over the hills, which I had never played.

Are there any other gang matches that hardly show up? I wish there was a way to select a game, because the Diez Coronas one was the poo poo.

Go to Diez Corona in free roam and start a match from the world icon. I don't know if it'll work or not, but i THINK this is how you're supposed to choose specific areas to play.

I was playing hold 'em in Armadillo with Herbert when all of a sudden I hear "It's Herbert Mooooon! I've been robbed!" from outside in the street. Dude must have a cloning device in the back of the general store somewhere.

Chew on that... you overgrown son of a bitch.

Is there any possible reason why post 1.02 RDR multiplayer would stop working? Before the patch it worked perfectly fine, even though I'm on NAT 3. I even opened up some ports and saw some noticeable improvements in my connectivity, but after the 1.02 patch, the only multiplayer I can do is solo free roam. I can't join anybody or vice versa. Right now I've got the game reinstalling both the game data and the patch, but if that doesn't work, Does anybody have any suggestions or any idea what's causing this?

Once the count for the number of dice goes up, no amount of down with any sticks or d-pad will lower it for me after changing it to a higher die.

You must increase either the number or dice or die size bid. If you increase the number of dice you can reduce the die size, but if you increase the die size you cannot decrease the number of dice.

Every once in a while I like to sit down for a game of poker, get caught cheating, and shoot a dude to death. You'll usually find four dollars or so on the body, so it costs about $6 for a fun duel and some easy honor. You can spend the full $10 to shoot the gun out of his hand for more honor, or disarm him and then shoot him in the back for negative honor!

Also, you're completely right that killing people in duels caused by cheating doesn't really get tracked by the game. One guy kept winning at poker, so I became convinced that he was cheating and decided that I would intentionally flub at cheating so he'd catch me and I could shoot him in the face. The next day he and his awful beard were right back at the table.

Yes, I am the worst possible person, what of it

Edit: the other night, I ran into the "angry guy about to stab a hooker" random event. Since nobody terrorizes hookers in this town but me, I rode up at a dignified pace and blasted him twice in the chest at close range. Then, as people yelled in surprise and scattered, Marsten peered down from his horse and politely said, "I couldn't just pass by and let him kill you, ma'am."

It was John Wayne as gently caress. Moments like that are what really make this game great. Well, that and pushing people in front of wagons.

Right, but Showtime said that my example would work after I said I thought the tutorial was confusing and would like to see it again to see if I read it wrong or if it is just worded poorly.

Obsurveyor posted:

I wish you could go back and get the tutorial messages again without starting a new game. I got confused because I thought it told me I could bid a higher number of the same die or bid a higher die(i.e. one 1 could be outbid by one 6).

ShowTime posted:

No one else seemed to pick up on this, and me saying this is probably going to open up the Liar's Dice talk again, but you CAN outbid by using a higher die. The example you cited yourself is correct. 1 die showing 1 will be outbid by 1 die showing 2, 1 die showing 2 will be outbid by 1 die showing 3, etc. etc. 1 die showing 6 will be outbid by 2 die showing 1's.

Most people can't stand the look or voice of Jack Marston. John is cooler, more calm, much more the "cowboy" type, you practically attached yourself to him throughout the story if you're not a robot

This game is all loving atmosphere. The best part is that it's not just like playing a Western, it's like playing EVERY Western. You're John Wayne one moment then Clint Eastwood then Gary Cooper and motherfucking Paladin the next. I seriously hope it gets enough younger people interested in the genre to make them popular again.

Finished the game. I thought the first two acts were so-so, with JM just being led by the nose and changing factions depending on who could dangle the info he wanted. I expected there to be more duels, particularly between Bill and Dutch. But the third act, where you get to play dad and husband was really superb and the story came into its own, and the ending packed a wallop. The glitches also undermined the game, and I was also expecting a bit more polish.

I also thought Jack looked like a reject from CATS but maybe it was just me..

Still, 8/10.

If you've already been to all the locations in that area just riding around before you purchase and use the maps, they don't do much. If you just ride into Presidio, for example, and purchase and use the map, it will allow you to "discover" all locations in that area.

So excited for the co-op pack, I hope this helps revitalize the MP a bit.

It sucks how so many people just grinded Solomon's Folly or another hideout over and over again to level up then just put it away and say the MP sucks or is "boring" now. Yeah, it'll be boring and suck when you treat it like an assignment.

If you take your time and enjoy it you and random strangers can create some epic moments, one of my favorites being a long rear end chase across the entire map. Love the MP, hope they keep adding stuff.

UPDATE: I officially cannot even get into free roam anymore. It just hangs on the loading screen forever.
