STRONG as an OX and TWICE as SMART
I finally got 100% tonight after a few marathon sessions. I got the Unnatural Selection achievement and then used the very last mission of the game to get 100%. It was a pretty drat good feeling.

I guess I should go play online now?

does anyone know how the war horse compares with the other 3-star horses in terms of strength/speed

I've had other horses keel over dead but never with the war horse. Also West-Dickens races were waaayyy easy, I even tipped the buggy thing over and still won (I assume it uses your horse). I usually suck at any sort of racing in games.

Does this basically mean that if I have an NTSC version of the game I'll need to have a US PSN in order to play DLC stuff?

:psyduck:
Pretty much. My wife and I have a similar problem (I'm British, she's American, we have a Japanese PS3). We've found that dlc is region-specific to whichever version of a game you have. Japanese dlc only works on Japanese games, European on European, American on American etc. So yeah, multiple accounts/emails/payment methods are necessary.

I'm loving retarded and never updated my router's firmware once. The version went from 1.03 to something like 2.7.069 and all of a sudden I went from NAT 3 to NAT 2, and I had functioning UPnP and all my connectivity woes went away.

I seem to be stuck at the "Drifter" honor level for some reason. At the beginning of the game, my honor would decrease if i killed innocent people and whatnot, but now nothing I can do seems to affect my honor one way or the other.

Is this a glitch? Or is there something I'm missing?

edit: like the pigs and dogs and chickens. You only have to kill one of every wild animal.

I've killed every other animal in the game. gently caress, now I have to go through my list and rekill everything individually.

e: I guess it's fine, it's like Master Hunter 11!
Hunter Challenge spoilers Wait, I was just looking through my list of animals killed and Jaguar wasn't listed. Does it appear on the list of animals you've killed? Because I don't want to be hosed out of the achievement because it didn't count me killing Khan.-

Have you killed any seagulls? How about a songbird? I know those two were incredibly hard to find for me.

Edit: Seagulls only spawn at the docks in Blackwater, I believe, which is why I never even knew they were in the game.

Seagulls and ducks were the last for me. Seagulls because there is never any reason to go on the docks in Blackwater, and the ducks because they don't land and just circle the Lake Don Julio. I had a habit of shooting random birds/animals whenever so by the end of the game I had got all the others without really trying.

Yup, I've got Seagulls (3), Mules (1, it might be my culprit), Ducks (5), Songbirds (11), Goats (4) and Bighorn (6).

Hunting challenge has been getting on my tits for a while now. I think I'm either missing a bighorn sheep or a duck. Or both. Definitely nabbed a songbird, a seagull and an owl, a wild horse and both types of bear (as well as all the other standard creatures).

I can't seem to get any more bounty missions in my game- when I took on my last bounty hunting mission I went ahead and did a mission instead, and I haven't seen a new one in hours. My brother has no shortage of bounties and we're almost at the same missions- anyone run into this?

Like has been said recently, ducks are flying around Lake Don Julio, they won't land.

As for Bighorn, they're in an around Tall Trees and just East of Rattlesnake Hollow.

It's kinda funny, then, that (endgame) when Ross goes out duck hunting he goes across the border to hunt at the south shore of the river, instead of just staying around his cabin at Lake Julio where it's convenient. And also where the ducks actually are.

That's a side effect of the marijuana poisoning.
When I join a free roam session now there are never any other players in the game, if I wait for quite some time others will join the session I'm in but I never get to join sessions with other people in. My nat settings are all open but occasionally it will say I was disconnected for connection issues with other players. Quite frankly I'm sick of my xbox and all this multiplayer poo poo never working.

One animal I'm glad I killed when I saw was a bald eagle, just sitting on the cliffs during one of the last story missions in Tall Trees. Never noticed another one in the game and I've played almost 48 hours.

Although obviously some of the raptor-like birds I see regularly could be them, but that was the one time I saw the distinctive white head.

I hadn't noticed many eagles, but the overwhelming majority of birds killed happen to be eagles. I think they're all over Mexico, especially down in Diez Coronas. It's filled with Hawks and Eagles.

I'm just going to start a private free roam about 10-15 minutes before 9:00 EST and invite everyone who wants to come. Hopefully at least 3 will show up (exactly that many have expressed interest so far). If more then 3 show up then hopefully there are enough to make another group. If not then we can just run some more again, i'm sure people will end up dropping or showing up late.

I wish you could do it by clicking on the stick, I think I've crouched once during the entire time I've played RDR so far. Apart from accidentally clicking on the stick during combat and scuttling away from enemies like some retarded crab-person. :argh:

I totally fell in love with the way the UC games did it, though, and it should be a feature in every single game where you have to aim a weapon.
