Mastiff posted:Just finished the game. I love this about the game so much, the fact that the weather is just however the weather is for scenes. In the final scene for me, it was pissing it down and thundering. I also (ending spoilers) ended up using the mauser pistol and emptying all 15 rounds into Edgar Ross' face, making his head look like a red cauliflower I have a question about the ending, Is Edgar Ross in the lineup when John pushes open the barn doors? If so, what happens if you kill him?. I also need to try (ending spoilers) Shooting Ross from a distance as Jack before I get too close and trigger the duel cutscene . EDIT: Removed a couple of questions I found out reading the thread a bit more. Millionth Edit: I keep thinking of things. What I like now is (ending again) I played an absolute good guy with John, trying to do the right thing all the time. I'm going to turn it upside loving down with Jack, as a young man who has learned that, no matter how hard you try, people will drag you down with them unless you shoot first.

NeilPerry posted:
Which I will reply to with another spoilered block of text! Hooray! It's about the ending, if you haven't finished it. Whilst the stranger missions thing is slightly jarring, I don't think it's a massive immersion ruining thing. It would have taken a lot of extra development time to make sure there was extra dialogue to make partly completed stranger missions make sense, having people say new poo poo depending on what stage of each stranger mission you were in if you came back as Jack. I suppose it's a bit odd that the one I'm in the middle of is collecting flowers for that old guy for his wife's anniversary, so he's been waiting for at least 3 years for someone who isn't John to come back with his flowers. Fair enough. It's no big deal though, is it? If you want to talk inappropriately game-y moments, how about when (big spoiler) John is dead and we're looking at his and his wife's grave, with "Bury Me Not on the Lone Prarie" playing and then in the top left it suddenly pops up with "NEW ITEMS ARE AVAILABLE TO BUY FROM THE STORE!". Bah gawd, pa's dead and I'm real sad, but HEY BY JAHOSEPHAT LOOKY HERE! NEW ITEMS AT THE STORE! YEEEEHAW!. I don't understand why you think the final duel ruins the game's immersion, though. Please explain.

Alabama Blacksnake posted:More (minor) stranger mission spoilers: I distinctly remember one stranger mission I started as John and finished as Jack where there was a brief back-and-forth about how Jack wasn't the same one who started the mission. I think it was the guy building the glider in Mexico. This is true. I also just did the stranger mission where (pretty big spoilers) You speak to the bar owner in Blackwater and he says "ain't you the guy who killed Bill Williamson?" to which Jack explains he has him confused with someone else. EDIT Whoa Black Betty posted:Also, have any of you played SP on Expert Aim? I'm thinking of doing this too, but wanted to get an idea of how tough it makes some of the horseback/coach-based shootouts. I'm looking forward to trying it though, because I think it could make hunting and fighting a bit more intense and "personal" in it's involvement. I ain't done it nothin' BUT expert aim, boy.

NeilPerry posted:Nono, you got me wrong. I see your point on some of those things actually. I love the ending but there is a slight emptiness afterwards. Then again, it could be argued that this lack of any missions for Jack afterwards gives that feeling of pointlessness that someone feels after committing a murderous revenge. Not even sure if I agree with that myself, but it seems to fit. Oh and new badass thing to do - blind fire a throwing knife round a corner into some government rear end in a top hat's face.

leidend posted:No. You can count the non-assholes in the whole game on one hand. Kind of depressing... makes you wonder if the R* staff is mentally ok. I suppose it's Rockstar debunking the romance of the old west. The whole picture builds up to a land of selfishness and greed, as well as other little pokes at America - "money and a chance to interfere in affairs that aren't his own - what American could resist?". Almost everyone's out for themselves. Those who aren't and don't fit in are forgotten or sidelined. Look at Landon Ricketts, a hero of the West, nobody knows who he is anymore (except John). It's interesting, because they could have written him as a more bitter character, but they didn't. It makes the "good guys" a lot more powerful as characters. Crows Turn Off posted:And, as far as Mexico is concerned, everyone there is a huge jerk. I love the stranger missions, they do more than just offer interesting sidequests, they colour the story, build the game world and give it a real sense of character, where other games would just leave them as that - side quests. It's incredibly clever how these mini stories of the lives of others that you temporarily cross give you a real feel of the state of the land and the attitudes of the people in it. It's amazingly well done and should be thoroughly applauded.

The Lone Badger posted:I'm normally a PC gamer. I have a PS3 but I am an absolutely terrible shot when trying to aim with controller sticks (too used to a mouse that I can move fast or slow). Would this game still be enjoyable with such a malady, or should I skip it? (Or is a PC port coming?) IntoTheNihil posted:Not only is there a very helpful auto aim in the game, but the dead-eye feature makes shooting people extremely easy. You'll do fine. I play both PC and console, and I find altering your aiming style is useful when using a console. For example, on PS3 I use strafing and timing (waiting for someone to run into the line of sight) to line up horizontally and the right, "look" stick to line up vertically. Tends to make things a little easier.

Beelzebozo posted:Yeah, but by the time you get to that mission you've already watched him eagerly agree to help four or five different half-assed con men dupe him into errand after errand under the promise of information that they obviously don't have any access to. That honestly made the story in this game rather painful for me. I mean, I know they have to drag it out and have some artificial mission variety and stuff, but this is why people who don't play games refuse to take them seriously as a story-telling medium. Although you could argue that if these are the only leads he has, he doesn't have a lot of choice. Also, I would say that one thing it does do is help you share Marston's frustration at going on these wild goose chases. It's always extremely hard to conceal or construct believable conceits to make a series of missions feel less game-y, and I feel that Rockstar do this better than most.

Protip posted:Also, gently caress the 5 finger mini-game you have to complete to get one of the Reyes outfit pieces. I can't beat that to save my life. Protip for you, protip  What I tend to do on the later stages of five finger fillet is just look at the buttons that aren't X (presume it's B on the 360) and remember that combination. There's always an X between the other combinations, so just train a finger on that and remember the rest of the sequence. Then just say it out loud - "triangle circle square triangle circle, triangle circle square triangle circle". That's all you actually need to remember. It's also worth noting that you stop automatically as soon as you finish the last button press, so don't worry about doing too many. It also helps if you ever learned any of King's chain throws from Tekken, but that's another story.

enigmahfc posted:I just had a completely skinned cougar attack me. I killed the bastard, and skinned it. I turned to call my horse, and the SKINLESS COUGAR GOT UP AND RAN AT ME. It knocked me down but did no damage. This creature from Hellraiser kept running, turned to attack again, then suddenly fell to the ground and slid for a few feet. It was all kind of startling. Holy poo poo, these are the best glitches I've heard of yet. I've not had any interesting ones so far. I find it weird how people are complaining about how bleak the story is. If you don't like it, that's fine, but it's not really fair to say it "doesn't work", just because you want more uplifting moments. R* are clearly out to debunk the romance of the Old West. There's that quote by the anthropologist, who says "I dreamt of documenting the last days of the old west. The romance, the honour, the nobility! But it turns out it’s just people killing each other", which is basically the theme in a nutshell.

Duelling is really getting on my nerves. I want to disarm people as part of doing an honourable thing so I can get the achievement that is full honour and full fame simultaneously so I can get on with being an rear end. Is there no way to just tag one shot and be done? I want one shot to take the gun out the other guy's hand. Also, does that achievement require you to have full / empty honour and full fame at the same time, or could you do it separately?

AxeManiac posted:Jesus, I was totally doing that. I've got a couple of very handy tips for both poker and liar's dice. There's an English chap chap chap on the high stakes poker table in Blackwater who was initially pissing me off until I worked out his system. I cleaned out the other two in a few minutes and he basically folded whenever I bet, even if it was a minimum bet. What I found was (and I highly suspect that there's only one "cautious player" AI in the game, so it will go for any NPCs that serial fold) if you wait til it's just you and them, bet high before the flop, I'm talking half your chips (make sure it's not too close to making them go all in though by looking at the max bet you can make, which will be their total chips) and they will call it. On the flop, bet again, about 50 chips, and they will fold. Every time. The serial folders always fold after the flop, unless you call all the way through to the river. This way, the've already put in a shitload of chips, but they still fold, and you win all the chips. It sucks but they're not going to change their AI, so it's the best way to deal with those guys. As for Liar's Dice, it took me a couple of goes to get it right, but you can win a fuckload of money if you get it spot on, with an ante of $200. Basically, in the early stages, try and keep the bets low and realistic. I've played about four games and not once has the AI gone to call a bet as dead-on, either my own or another NPC's. They only bet or call bluffs. If you keep your bets lowish, it'll always fall to the other two to make a larger bet which the other will then call as a bluff. One of them loses a die, you hang in the background unscathed. Then you'll get to a point where you have 5 dice and they have 1 or 2 each. You can then make bigger claims based on fact (if you have 3 fours under your cup, bet 3 fours). They'll never call it spot on, which is what you might go for in a real game, they'll always call it as a bluff, and you'll always win. Bit lovely, I know, but it works. Also, I'm thinking of picking up a real life version of liar's dice, because it's fun as hell. The Lost Levels posted:Idiotic incorrectly spoilered poo poo combined with terrible whiney child opinion. What the gently caress. Don't read the bottom of page 66 unless you want the ending ruined. Also, this ending whining is pathetic. I think it's one of the most interesting endings I've seen for a good while, which ties in with the overall message R* are getting across with the game. I bet you (spoilered even though it's about another game, because it would hint towards this game's ending, that's right I'm spoilering properly) complained about the Raiden thing in MGS2. Subverting expectations is exactly what I want out of my games, not the typical happy ending boredom. Go and write some fanfic about it if it bothers you that much, instead of doing that "OH THANKS A LOT ROCKSTAR" crap, like you know what you're talking about. It's very irritating. Thanks. Sco Dylan posted:http://www.imdb.com/media/rm463374592/nm2147789 I love this. This makes me think he's a pretty drat good voice actor, because he looks more like a mormon than a jaded badass cowboy. Sorry for the MASSIVE post, and I do love this game, but is anyone else a bit disappointed with the lack of decent bar brawl action? Before this was released, I was dreaming of Euphoria-driven punch-ups, with a Bully-style fighting system, where you could throw people a small distance after softening them up. I wanted to knock into someone, spill their whiskey and end up in a big brawl where I threw someone through a window onto the porch and gave someone else a tasty hook that sent them rolling through the saloon doors, all with the piano still playing and not stopping just because a fight broke out. Surely this would have been amazing? It could be a mission, distract the bar staff downstairs by starting a brawl whilst Irish goes upstairs and nicks some info out of someone's room. Scoot away on horseback, being chased by a couple of scumbags. Also, I wanted it to be so that when your fame was low, the piano would stop and everyone would look at you in silence when you came in. DLC and patching? I can dream. Edited for awful grammar mistake. Gazmachine fucked around with this message at 08:26 on Jun 11, 2010 |

Beelzebozo posted:While I still feel sorry for anybody who has a game spoiled and wish people would use the tags that the system provides, I've gotta say I'm pretty loving astonished that anyone would read page 60-something of a Games thread several weeks after release if he hadn't yet finished the main story of that game. You're pretty much asking for it. Go play the loving thing before running to the Internet to discuss it. Sometimes I wonder about some of the hours-spent-posting : hours-spent-playing ratios in this forum. I agree and I do tend to finish a game before I come back to post but I also like to post my first impressions and see what other people's first impressions are, as well as grab a bit of mid-game knowledge from others who might have spotted something I haven't, which I may not be able to take advantage of later on in the game or after I've finished it, so really it's just common courtesy to spoiler things properly. And not quote them so that the incorrectly spoilered post appears on two pages...

You'll notice that if a game requires you invest some time into it, or if it isn't instantly gratifying, he tends to dismiss it. He's not a reviewer. It's sort of a critic's job to make swooping, entertaining, inflammatory statements. You could say that the two minutes someone might spend responding angrily on a forum to what he's said could have been two minutes skinning wolves, in which time you'd probably only skin 1.3 wolves because the animation is so long this game sux rite?!

Just had the best loving online free roam I've had for ages. Get this: I was doing a challenge where you have to complete 2 particular hideouts without dying once. There were three of us, two people on my PSN friend list. We were doing great and a posse of about 7 mouthbreathers come riding in to gently caress with our poo poo. I just managed to finish the hideout before they shot me, but they basically griefed us for a little bit and then ran off with calls of "haha human being" and so on. Thing is, there's a big bunch of players in the session, so I invite everyone to my posse, we end up with about 8 or 9 guys. I tell them the gameplan over my headset, basically to gently caress these guys up because they're assholes, so let's start a gang war. We all meet at a waypoint and ride together. I'm in my Native American skin. So they're all trying to complete a hideout and we come loving thundering round the corner, ululating over the mics and wrecking their poo poo. What followed was a 30 minute shootout with a shitload of trash talk from both sides, culminating in our glorious victory and their team quitting, bar about 2 guys, who we mercilessly mop up. That was seriously the most fun I've had online in loving ages. THIS. GAME. I also never expected to say "hah, I stole your loving zebra pal" today. But I did.

Quick list of random event missions and bugs I had last night: Has anyone had the random event where (only spoilered if you REALLY want to experience everything for yourself) there's a dude that's set up camp with a scraggy dog and he sees you and says "come any closer and I'll blow this bastard's brains out! I swear!". You don't seem to get any reward for saving the dog, and then the little fucker just comes after you until you kill it. Also, in Mexico, I keep coming across a guy who is trying to get his mule to move more quickly. He has it on a lead of sorts and is walking by it and keeps telling it to VAMOS and ANDELE and so on. It looks like a sort of random event but I don't know what to do with it. The reason it seems more like something you can interact with properly is because the subtitles actually pop up when the guy talks, which only happens with people of significance that you can interact with. I also saw the flying man bug for the first time. Love it. Shot him out of the sky aswell, but didn't survive for long enough to see if I could collect his man-feathers. enigmahfc posted:EIGHT loving BEARS Yeah, they seem to knock about in threes or fours for some reason. Oh yeah, which reminds me. In tall trees I came across a horse with no mount and a guy tied up on the back, just at random. I untied the dude and he ran off, only to be mauled by a bear. Seriously, if you fast travel in this game a lot, just try scooting around for a bit. Do the survivalist challenges. poo poo happens out there in the wilderness, sometimes more poo poo than in the towns and on the roads. Influenza posted:I loved the game, and was just dumbstruck ENDGAME when John went home to his family...and the game continued. I had fun doing those little family missions, but each new mission filled me with increasing dread, as even without reading spoilers, I knew bad things HAD to be coming for Mr. Marston. When he died, and then the game STILL wasn't over, Rockstar won my love and respect forever. What a great way to handle the endgame. Just had to quote this to say I agree with everything in this post and I also played through exactly as you did, including postgame+. It really does fit so nicely with the story / themes of the game. EDIT: Sorry, I have a MILLION things to say about this game. I also saw a pack of wolves attacking a bear. After a good couple of minutes fighting, The bear took two down and the wolves ran away.

Anyway I'd lost my mount and suddenly in a clearing there was a dead body on the floor by a horse and a man apparently looting his body. I strolled up expecting him to stop and he didn't. So seeing nobody was around I levelled my shotgun at his face and he drew and pointed at me but didn't fire. About ten seconds pass and I fire and kill him, loot both bodies, take his horse and leave. No honor lost, no bounty. We will never know. Dead men tell no tales.

Even better than that is the fact that he refuses to offer a reasonable explanation as to why he killed her, except that "she was a whore!". That detail really, really makes it for me. All the storytelling in the minigames really elevates the story and gives the game world a sense of character I can't recall being in any other game. It's the perfect game-centric way of making you care more about your environment. It's a real step up from the likes of Bioshock and games where you find remnants of something gone before, and notes that you have to read to find out more about what happened there. Not that this is a terrible idea, but I think Rockstar may have set a new precedent for the way you enhance storytelling within a game without pulling you out of the game too much.

I just managed the $5,000 bounty challenge (I was something like $5,080 or thereabouts) when some dick came from across the map to shoot me. He stayed for the ride and me and my buddy got something like a 20 kill streak on him. He then stayed still for a bunch of kills, hoping we'd go away or some poo poo. When I got off my horse to walk right in front of him, he started shooting. Problem for him was, I had a semi-auto shotgun equipped. Goooood-night Irene. My main complaint with the free roam poo poo is the sort of thing that happened last night. I was going into free roam to create a posse with my PSN friends, so that I could then start a gang deathmatch mode so we could play all on the same team. I entered the world in front of a posse of about 5 or 6 who kept loving killing me immediately upon spawning. when this happens, you lose your menu until you respawn. It took me about five times longer to do something that would have been a case of a couple of menu selections. Bunch of poo poo. Also, the team balancing needs to be fixed so badly. I had a great hardcore team deathmatch round where it was 8 on 8. Couple of people left at the end and the next game was something like 9 against 5. Couple left and then it was something like 8 against 3. This is loving stupid and needs to be fixed. IRQ posted:Real men use the High Power Pistol. How do you get the high power pistol in free roam?

If you're on before me, add me. GaryDooton is the name. Thinking of changing my forums name to this. Once I have any hint of disposable income, that is.

Don't tag them, just make use of the slow motion to get the crosshair right on his furry, Simon Cowell forehead and fire. They go down in one, no problem.

Seth was the best colour character in the game for me, hands down. It's a shame there wasn't more of him. If the debunking of the Old West is a tale of selfishness, anti-romance and greed, Seth was the greed. I thought he was a great character, and the sunburnt face and sort of worn down, black fingertips were brilliant touches. I also greatly enjoyed his final mission where you assault the abandoned mansion. When I did it, it was night time, raining heavily and there was thunder and lightning. Made it the best moment I'd had up to that point in the game. Fantastic.

Stupid_Sexy_Flander posted:My nun appeared in Tall Trees to give me the trinket, and then she tried to walk into me to go past me, making John go "Hey, watch it sister!", the nun say "Good manners are free young man, I suggest you try and aquIREAAAAHHGGUUGGHHH" because a bear jumped up and slapped the hell out of her. Ahahahaha, amazing. Oh my christ, I've just thought, there absolutely has to be a "bears everywhere" cheat. Imagine how amazing it would be to have them running through Blackwater, loving poo poo up. I just tried to lure one into town but they just turn away at a certain point. Why? It would be so amazing to have a bear tearing through Blackwater. On a totally unrelated note, loving hell bastard cunting hellfires, I'm trying to get a ringer in horseshoes for the trophy (looking to platinum my first game ever) and it's poo poo as gently caress. I've even had it spin around the peg and then land a few centimetres away from the peg and it doesn't count. SAHSF:hawdlghwefjowhj, is all I can say. Why the poo poo can't I go into deadeye for this? EDIT: ridiculous typo, ended up spelling "platinum" as "plllanutim" Gazmachine fucked around with this message at 11:11 on Jun 21, 2010 |

Anyone experiencing problems with the new content? I've had a couple of freezes (well, occasions where I've been stuck on the loading screen, anyway) and I played The Kidnapped Girl 3 times in a row. First time it was fine, second and third times the event didn't trigger to spawn the girl and her captors on the roof, so we all just sort of stood there for a bit until I quit. When they have been working they're pretty fun though. Best part so far is the big fight at Tumbleweed in The Escape. Quite enjoyed the Miners one too. Looking forward to the advanced coop stuff.

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).
