Cougars are giant dicks. When I was finishing up the Master Hunter challenges in Multiplayer, I went up to Tanner's Reach in a wagon (thanks to the helpful advice here) and a shitload of ammo. There must have been twenty cougars there, all pissed because I was in a wagon. After I got the skin I was looking for, I spent another hour there just shooting cougars. Cruel? Unncessary? Those motherfuckers were getting a dose of being humanity's bitch. When I finally emptied my ammo (the Buffalo Rifle holds a lot), I went back to Marzanita Post and saved. I must have decimated the Cougar population because the only thing there was carasses and blood. Scummy motherfucking cougars.

I've seen a couple of people in multiplayer that get around 40 kills in a single match and most of them are head shots, didn't they fix the hacking stuff? or is this new?

Man, I just ran into that 'Dumbass runs away from wild animals' random event again, and the pantywaist was being chased by a single bobcat. Sure they're fast, but come on. It's a kitty.

Wow, for the first time ever I saw a stagecoach robbery happen in the wilderness! I was even given the choice between defending and attacking the stagecoach! Of course, I helped the bandits. Then later as I was shooting the bandits in the back (to steal their cut of course), my horse suddenly fell over and died. Minorkos fucked around with this message at 14:01 on Sep 12, 2010 |

They just played a lot and got good. I've been in FFA matches where I've killed over 30 with mostly head shots. You just get a reflex for lock on > nudge stick up > boom. Trust me, the grind up to level 50 really turns you into a murder machine. In fact, after all that, going back to play some of the single player missions I had trouble with is child's play.

To all the guys complaining about playing as Jack after the end of the main story, I don't see what you're upset about. I love that guy. Plus, the new dialogue is amazing; I dug up some treasure and Marston yelled, "Jack's gettin' an automobile!  "Also, I wandered into Chuparosa and a guy challenged me to a duel. "You killed my father!" he shouted. "Okay, sure, let's go," came the retort. "I'll kill you just like I killed him."

So, I've been looking allll over online and I can't find a single review of Red Dead Redemption that actually does it justice. Not once have I found anything that says more than "the characters are deep and colourful" about the story line or the unique themes surrounding the game. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not a professional - but there is definitely story telling worthy of artistic interpretation. I mean, has anyone thought that maybe there's something more to it and it isn't actually a cowboy game. Maybe that's even the point... The only person I've heard elude to it is Scott Jones from Review on the Run (cough). Anyway, can anyone direct me to a review of the game's story line that takes something like this into consideration? Something regarding the significance of Uncle (the fact that he tried but still kept loving up, and John is ridiculously rude to him due to a past we never actually see), or the modestly underwhelming towns and landscapes (especially the train) that seem to have a far deeper meaning to them. Then again it could just be another run of the mill game and I'm confusing shallow game devices with something amazing and artistic. gently caress me then.

Not once have I found anything that says more than "the characters are deep and colourful" about the story line or the unique themes surrounding the game. It's because most reviewers don't actually play through the entire game before writing their reviews, and if they do they don't have time to properly digest it to capture the nuance. It's the difference between skimming the Cliff's notes for Moby Dick the day before you have a 5-page Lit 101 essay due, and spending a semester researching the book and the criticism from other scholars about it and writing a big old paper at the end.

I played some blackjack, was dealt a 20, sat around looking smug, and was furious when the dealer hit on 14 and ended up with 21. I leaped up from my seat and shot the cheating bastard dead, then fled from the police and holed up in a ravine until they stopped searching. It was only when I'd already started riding to the next town over for a drink that I realized the whole sequence of events was exactly like something a bit character out of an old spaghetti western might do, and I'd been doing it without even thinking about it!

I am kinda wondering if we are going to get lucky and have to fight a Skinwalker. That's pretty much the meanest native american "mythical creature" that I can think of besides a Wendigo or a Thunderbird. Of course, those are the only 3 that come to mind when someone mentions native american mythology to me.

Bet the zombie thing pulls some sort of crazy Pet Semetary action and is related to a desecrated Native American burial ground or something.

Everybody is assuming zombie animals, but who knows? It says "mythical creatures", could be anything. I WANT TO RIDE A UNICORN (not really)! I'm really wondering about the new secret location. Maybe it's that mine bottom left of the map below Perdido? They never used that for anything.

Sco Dylan posted:That would be the poo poo. It could be anything in the South of Mexico. I've only been out there a few times to do Aztec Gold and a few of the bounties. Then again, we have a DLC coming up with more hideouts so some of them might be there. I'm guessing El Presidio and Torquemada might be hideouts, but you know West Elizabeth and Mexico are going to get the lion's share of that. My guess for a secret location would be the empty space Northwest of Rathskeller Fork.

I don't make a habit of buying DLC, but you can bet your smooth-as-cream-gravy rear end I'm going to buy the Undead Nightmare pack ASAP. Too bad there isn't MORE single-player focused DLC. I'd kill for a Gay Tony-esque add-on to RDR.

Dual pistol belt and sawed off shotguns as a pistol weapon and I'll be happy. I'd want to use the sights on the Sharps but that's probably too involved for DLC
