thrawn527 posted:Have you seen the credits yet? Yeah, one in the balls, seven in the head  . I'm now dithering at 98% completion, not sure what I'm missing. Got all outfits, challenges, weapons and hideouts. I just want that bureau uniform then I'm done.Gotta say that I thought the ending was really good and a nice departure from a lot of games. Red Dead in general has been a hugely satisfying experience and I can see myself picking it back up again sometime. Undead Nightmare didn't come today as expected, should be having more Marston fun tomorrow night. e: Guess there must be one or two jobs I'm missing.

I was hoping it would be like you get a picture of him and a last known location then you actually investigate. It would have been cool to walk into a saloon and kinda poke around til you find the guy, maybe even be able to ask the bartender if he's seen him (just quick back and forth, no L.A. Noire interrogation expected). At least we got the kick rear end treasure maps.

Piece of advice. If you have a friend who thinks he might like the game but wants to try it out, DO NOT LET HIM RIDE A HORSE WITH THE EXPLOSIVE RIFLE. God drat, he must have killed 4 horses in about 20 mins trying to shoot rabbits and other little critters, only to detonate the back of his horses head.

Is there a completion bug or something? I thought I'd just snap up the last few percent and get the bureau uniform before starting the expansion, but it's stuck on 99.5%. I've went down the list of everything required and checked it against my stats and there isn't a single thing I'm missing.  Like, I've double checked and even redone a few things just to make sure. I'm about ready to just drop it but it's annoying to leave it there, especially after I wasted time doing more bounty missions just for the completion. I don't have live so I can't check the social club list, I've been checking against the wiki.e: The loving lists specifically say only 18 stranger missions are required but apparently there's a 19th tucked away. I guess I got trolled. Captain Diarrhoea fucked around with this message at 16:44 on May 26, 2011 |

Yeah, "I Know You" doesn't count for 100% as it can't be done after the endgame. All the others do. So basically it's not a case of "Any 18" stranger quests, it's all of them EXCEPT "I Know You".

Yeah it was just that one stranger mission I'd passed over. I was burned out though so I'll do it next time I pick up vanilla RDR. Undead Nightmare's great fun so far, although I just got a message saying a survivor in Blackwater was killed, and it's dawning on me that I'll have to play whack a mole with all the places I liberate to stop them disappearing off the map I guess. I reckon it was fine that they can be overrun again, but permanently losing them seems tiresome. Only bad point so far though. The first time I encountered War was a little anti climactic (buckarood right into the river with John yeehawing to his watery grave), but now he's rendered my torch swinging cavalry approach obsolete. When is a horse not a horse? When it's a torch. When is a torch horse not a torch horse? When it is also a battering ram.

It is surprisingly entertaining to walk from Thieve's Landing to Mexico with the drunk and invincible cheats on. Seeing John get ripped up by wolves as he staggers across a rail-bridge is great.

I thought nothing would top GTA IV anytime soon, and then came RDR. Just riding through the desert at walking speed, waiting for stuff to happen and people to shoot, is intensely satisfying. I'd pay good money for terrain and random event expansions alone.

I would kill for more terrain and towns. Even better if it captured the feel the game takes on when you just enter Mexico. You don't know where to start, you don't know the language and the terrain is totally different. That and it's so goddamn big it's hard to remember it all. I still say Rio Bravo is the scariest area in the game. Yeah Tall Trees has bears but you can see, and hear, those fuckers coming. Cougars just sprint out of thick brush and lunge at your pretty little pony. I skin every cougar I kill on principle alone.

You don't know where to start, you don't know the language and the terrain is totally different. That and it's so goddamn big it's hard to remember it all. When I began to understand that you don't just saunter into Rio Bravo, I started getting the real life feeling of being in critter infested underbrush whenever I rode up those hills, shotgun at the ready, swivelling in the saddle like a tank turret, spooked by anything that moved. Also, the first time I played and didn't know I could whistle a new horse after a few minutes, I got stranded in the desert when a lucky snake downed the horse. The game feels so real that I avoided running on the long trek back; conserving energy and fluids, ya know... I'm sure it would have been even more fun if there'd been no maps, and you had to find your way using hearsay, deduction, the sporadic signposts, etc. I'm incredibly bad at directions in real life and get lost in my own neighbourhood, so I reckon I'd still be discovering areas in the game even now.

Don't get me wrong I'm really enjoying Undead, but I would say it's not spectacular on it's own. The missions are mostly go somewhere, shoot something, ride back. It's good for people who enjoyed RDR enough that they just wanted more.
