Mad Doctor Cthulhu posted:Considering I'm paying $10, they can add that horse for free. Played RDR: Undead Nightmare at the NYCC (ComicCon); what can I say? It is a "side story" so isn't involved in the main campaign, you have to select it from the main menu. Your SP campaign has no bearing on this game as it stars John. The blunderbuss is hilarious, but not overpowered since it takes a bit to reload. It is also not that easy, as the zombie types are different (I think I saw at least four, a regular zombie, fast zombies, some zombies that crawl on all fours (could be the same), a fat zombie and a zombie that spews green projectiles). Overall, it will be at least worth the ten bucks. We also couldn't play the campaign portion as the kiosks were set up for survival only.

Funny thing, UN seems like it is going to add a LOT more than the GTA4 DLCs did at half the price.

One online mode, and a short, probably less than 2 hour campaign. Sure, there's some new enemy types and at least 1 new horse, but the GTA4 stuff added 2 or 3 multiplayer modes each, new weapons, new vehicles, and 5-8 hour story modes with full voice acting. Don't get me wrong, UN looks awesome for what it is, but it's not adding more than the GTA4 ones did.

So I am just now getting around to playing this. Starting the game, is there anything I should know? All I've done so far is catch some wild horses for Bonnie, and then gently caress around shooting skunks and raccoons and poo poo.

Though if you've already got the lasso and roped some horses you should be through most of those.

Played the zombie game at comic con today. It got old after 3 minutes. That doesn't bode well. It's just guys mass rushing you constantly and the novelty of zombies will wear off quick. Read Dead always had awkward shooting physics so I think that screws up things here. There's a new gun that shoots zombie parts at other zombies and does a kinda wunderwaffe effect and that was pretty cool. If anyone has questions or something I can try to answer about the new guns and modes I saw. There were different types of zombies too.

Sorry if this has been asked for the umpteenth time, but is there a way to have Marston walk out alive at the end of that escorting your family back to the silo mission? I could just suck it up and take the death, but the seemingly inevitable 100% completion collect-a-thon when the story is complete, starring A Whiny Kid is sounding really unappealing.

Reports say that what you played was the "Survival Mode" as opposed to the sandbox-y portion we all want to stake out in West Elizabeth with taking on ZOMBIE-loving-BEARS  Also, does anyone know if human zombies will only be in towns and human outposts, or will they infest the wilderness as well? I can't imagine taking on zombies and bears at the same time

You need to make sure you have the mauser in your pistol slot and you maust get head shots on ALL of the armed soldiers. This is difficult because you have about 3 seconds to paint the targets but it can be done and the real ending is SOOO much better than the heavy handed shlock they poo poo out if you fail.

Don't forget the awesome thing about the good ending is that John Marston is visited by the Mysterious Stranger, who then gives him immortality so when his woman and kid die by cholera, he continues on. His redemption is time to fight and lead humanity into a better peace, one not defined by the federal government.

Okay, looking or tips on knifing bears. I figured I'd try to soften them up with guns first, but I either overkill it or get one shotted by it because I haven't softened it up enough. I am not beyond dirty tricks at this point. When I first got to Tall Trees, I was assaulted by no less than fifteen loving bears, but now I look for 30 minutes, and I might find one. This loving game hates me. Personally.

Shoot them in the face with a shotgun, then charge them on horseback and swing your knife like crazy. If they're not dead, turn around and charge again.

Screw that, just grab your lasso. When you lasso a bear he gets stunned for a few seconds during which you can knife him. It's still pretty dangerous because they don't get stunned for very long but it's certainly do-able and it feels awesome when you down a bear like that.

Then I realized that I could just get a new one just like it with a horse pass. Horses became a renewable resource for me. "Huh, that's a long drop. Break my fall, noble steed!" "Oh poo poo, bears! Quickly, Silver, distract them with your delicious horse flesh!" "Hey, banditos! To me, Perdita, act as deployable cover!" They even gave me free money when I chopped them up.

Several body shots from a weaker pistol will hurt a bear enough that it eventually turns tail and runs away. Then you can just chase it down with the knife. While dodging the five other bears who have come to the rescue of their pal, of course.

The bear union is an impressive one, indeed. A few shots from the High Powered Pistol usually softens a bear up. A shot from the Buffalo Rifle anywhere except their head is good. And be sure to knife from the horse, it saves time and effort.

Also, I've heard something to the effect of if you knife a bear in the face/throat area, you can insta-kill it, but I haven't the balls nor the spare flesh to try it.

A buddy and I could use some help tomorrow night. We've been trying to get the trophy for being most wanted for ten minutes and getting away. The problem isn't the lawmen, it's the idiots who decide to come over from the other side of the map to keep us from finishing this thing out. If we could get enough people in on the posse we could kick everyone else who comes into the area (or server, if it's necessary for that) The plan is to get four people on the roof of the jail in MacFarland ranch and then rovers moving around on horse as needed / available. My PSN is Darth Brooks, his is Blindrocket and the time is 7-7:30 pm central us. Everyone whose willing to do this is invited and we'll try and get the trophy for everyone involved if we can. If you have a mic it would help

I'm stuck on the 360, but the way I got this was to go to Chuparosa with a few buds and hide out on the balcony. If you have someone covering the staircase, it's easy going.

I got it by holing up in the Cochinay caves near the cliff. There's ladders they have to come up which makes them completely vulnerable and the law won't even come in the main gate.

Nobody bothers you there, and if you crouch in the right spot on the roof you don't even have to run. The only thing to look out for is if a pubbie goes to the back behind the walls of the town and dynamites you or something. Dr.Smasher fucked around with this message at 22:45 on Oct 11, 2010 |

Yes...you keep everything you unlocked through DLC and the campaign (at least this is what the Rockstar guy told me) as those can be brought into the Undead Nightmare "side mission". I will repeat though, UN is not integrated into the story or after the story, it is handled sorta like the Mafia 2 DLC. Also only the 360 version was at the Con so no idea on PS3, though Rockstar reps told me "it'll be the same". Also, the "survival mode" we played has a co-op element that was not at the show. So that could be neat.

Are you sure you even need to be on a public server for that one? I thought I just did that alone on a private server from inside the bar in Armadillo, unless I'm thinking of something else. Either that or it was with a friend at that Mexican base with the cannons, but either way probably would have been private server.

As far as I can tell, every achievement you can get in multiplayer that doesn't involve other players can be done in your own private session. It's nice to clear hideouts, hunt animals, find plants, and level up without 12-year-old sociopaths ruining it for you. If you're doing the wanted posse missions, you'll need a buddy. One of you should rack up the bounty before recruiting the other. The standing bounty will be inherited by the player who joins, which saves time and ammo. I used Rathskeller Fork for these, but some of the other suggested locations also look interesting.
