Pound_Coin posted:Level 10 sharpshooter can suck my dick, any tips? I end up killing rather than disarming. There are two ways I've seen that challenge done. Make sure you're using the Evans (since it holds 22 rounds) and that you have some chewing tobacco or moonshine in your inventory. Even if the gun runs empty in Deadeye, that reload doesn't seem to matter for the challenge. The easiest way to do that challenge is to use the Gaptooth Breach hideout, specifically the mine section as it's narrow enough that you can't get surrounded. Start off by killing all the gang members outside the mine, and then equip your rifle and head inside. Once in the mine, use Deadeye to target the guns of the gang members, and fire one shot at each weapon. Occasionally, the gang members will pick up the fallen weapon again, and disarming them the second time also counts towards the total number you need. You can also do the challenge by going into a saloon, hiding behind the bar, pissing everyone off, and then shooting the guns from their hands. This nethod is quicker, but is a bit easier to die attempting.

I really have nothing against Rockstar giving a game a first act instead of going in media res and jumping straight to the "good" parts before establishing why I should give a poo poo. GTA4/RDR use their few first missions to basically familiarize the player with the controls, concept, and characters of the game. It slowly builds up the world and then eventually digs its hook into you when the action begins. It's nothing but typical, but typical rarely appeals to me these days. Also, I'm the only on the planet that enjoyed taking people out so I could learn more about them.

You actually only need to do the Undead Hunter challenges and I think the Horses challenges. I never bothered with the treasure hunting or sharpshooting and still ganked the Chupacapbra and found the Unicorn.

I never 'broke' Death, and ended up just getting him after beating the game. It counted towards the Four Horsemen Rank.

Has anyone seen the Chupacabra a second time? There is a stat for "Chpacabras Killed", implying that they can spawn, but I'm at 100% and played hours and still haven't seen another one.

Haha. That nun that asks you for a monetary donation to help the church just walked up to me after I massacred everyone within a mile of Armadillo while wearing the Bandanna. She came walking up to me talking about how she's heard of my good deeds as I was stooped over and looting a pile of corpses  She asks me if I can spare some money so they can buy food, so I donate about $85 to her. She gratefully accepts my donation....And then promptly shrieks at the top of her lungs and goes running off into the wilderness screaming "MURDERER! AHHHH!I can't help but feel like I just got conned. By a nun

I ran into the dumb sick girl out in the wilderness and after I gave her some medicine, she still was just sitting out there. When I noticed nobody was watching, I hogtied the bitch and dropped her off in Armadillo. Jesus helps those who help themselves!

The second time that happened, I accidentally capped the nun in the face with a shotgun blast. Her habit looked like a cop to me. The third time? Hogtied her and threw her off a cliff. And nowadays I just cap her in the face.

Both of those guys are every Rockstar quest giving side character ever. They're loud, annoying, flustered, neurotic, ignorant, and they say offensive things that put the protagonist in an awkward position. But, for some reason he needs them and has to tag along on their horrible little adventures. This formula is really tired and it's just annoying at this point. You can't even reunite with your kidnapped wife and child* without being berated and yelled at. * Near end-game spoilers.

Haha, cougars are the best. I'm riding along when a man screams for help, he's being chased by wolves. So I kill some wolves and the others run away. "Thanks mister! I thought I was goner for su-" /GETS MAULED BY A COUGAR AS I RIDE AWAY. A couple nights ago I saw Undead Nightmare was on sale, so I bought some points and got the DLC. But I didn't let it completely download because I wanted to watch netflix or something at the time. I'm pretty sure I let it finish downloading some other time in the last few nights, and now when I go to my active downloads it's saying I don't have any. Fine. But I when I open the game and choose Undead it just takes me to a screen to download content. And on that screen it's showing Undead Nightmare as paid for. How do I get to this damned thing? I don't even want to play it yet (haven't finished the main game), I just want to confirm I got what I paid for.

So I'm screwing around after beating the game. I hear a woman scream, and I turn to see she's being chased by wolves. I race my horse towards her and shoot as many wolves as I can, but one gets in a bite on the woman before I can shoot him. I shoot the wolf as he's on top of her and run over to check on her. But it's too late, she's dead. This is sad, but why let her money go to waste? I take a look around to make sure no one will see me or judge me, and then I loot her body. (post-endgame spoilers) Jack then says, as he's looting the corpse of the dead woman he was too slow to save, "I wanted to be a writer." Now I'm sad. Seriously, though, just recently finished this game, and it's great. All the little things that pop up that have nothing to do with the main story quests just add so much to the game. I made the mistake of fast traveling a lot when I started playing, so I will have to play it again and ride everywhere. Whoever said each journey is like it's own little game is right. Great game, very involved. Created a very believable world.

One thing I have noticed though is this game takes a turn for the  in general once you reach Mexico. The first part of the game feels like an old western where the bad guys are evil and the good guys are knights, then you get to mexico and the best you can root for is a shallow, womanizing rear end in a top hat who will almost certainly become the dictator he is fighting against. And it just goes downhill from there.Again, not complaining, just observing

thrawn527 posted:You know, that's extremely accurate. I like the game even more now. The best part is the musical cues all match to the three genre types as well. The music in the first third is very similar to old school westerns (High Noon, John Wayne stuff), the second third is much more Spaghetti, and the final third is much more like the music from Unforgiven. It's not so much obvious in game because the cues flow so seamlessly, but if you listen to the Theme from Red Dead Redemption on the soundtrack you can hear them very distinctly (because they play the Theme in the three styles.)
