Been nice to get something like a small arrow in there. Also don't know if it's me or what but I was expecting some "blimp/marker" to show up on the lower map when I went out and nothing. I rode all over Hanging Rock area and still no kid?
In the case of the quest you're talking about, look Spoiler:
When someone approches you with "HELP" and they're not marked with a (?) on the map how do you take the mission? I had the guy approch me on horseback about saving someone from being hanged and all he did was just stand still after he spoke. Nothing came up about "follow so-and-so to save ...." I checked my my map for a marker and nothing. Few minutes later got..."Failed they died" or something like that. Given the option of...Dead or Alive...how do actually capture them alive? I hit someone and knocked them down but they kept getting up and running off. Nothing popped up about "Hit Button To Capture" or hint what to do so I had to shoot them. You get the lasso Spoiler:

It's a free market. You can sell whatever you want. You are not guaranteed a buyer, however. I sold both of my codes, but haven't heard back from either buyer yer if they worked but I haven't got any complaints either.

Re: Official Larry C Red Dead Redemption thread!!!
Well it looks like MP is going to be a no-go for me. I've tried it about five times and it always bumps me from Free Roam within minutes of starting up and then just sits on the loading screen forever. Yippee.

Re: Official Larry C Red Dead Redemption thread!!!
I finally finished Mass Effect 2 so I can now jump into this one. Talk about a change of scenery!
I tried free roam for about an hour last night and didn't have any issues. What's the point of earning money in that mode? And do you get something for clearing out one of the enemy bases? I was having trouble figuring out what to do, exactly, to earn XP. Then I saw the challenges in my stats, so I spent about 10 minutes rolling around to at least get to level 2. :lol: |

Re: Official Larry C Red Dead Redemption thread!!!
What problem are you guys having with the duals? I haven't lost yet. Here is what I do.
As soon as the word "dual" flashes on the screen, hold down the left trigger. A targeting reticule will pop up at the guy's feet. Move it up towards his body. When it gets to his chest, start pumping the right trigger. The faster you pump it, the faster your blue gauge fills up. When you hit the top, BAM. You unload full clips into these cocksuckers. |
Re: Official Larry C Red Dead Redemption thread!!!
Also, this world is huge. However I still find it annoying how padded out the missions are. I have had enough of this "follow" or "escort" this person somewhere. I swear 80% of the time to complete missions are just getting there.

Re: Official Larry C Red Dead Redemption thread!!!
I just got a "ringer" in horseshoes. I sure can't do it consistently though!
Duels can also be won by shooting the gun out of the hand of the other guy. You get more fame and whatnot for doing it as well. |
Re: Official Larry C Red Dead Redemption thread!!!
I just starting playing last night and so far, I'm having trouble with the aiming of this game. I'm just too slow so far...

Do I need to use the same e-mail as my PSN account to join the Rockstar Social Club?

Re: Official Larry C Red Dead Redemption thread!!!
So I was playing with the volume low and didn't realize the train was right behind me on my left as I was riding on the road near the tracks. I took a left turn to cross the tracks and... whammo!! :lol:

Not that you would or even really should, but don't you just love how sellers can't leave negative feedback for buyers anymore?

I have never sold anything on ebay... but if this is the case then doesn't it make it really damn hard for a seller to know who is legit and who is a load?

Re: Official Larry C Red Dead Redemption thread!!!
Damn, I stopped to look at some dead guy next to his dead horse, and got killed by a freakin mountain lion that jumped out of nowhere!

Re: Official Larry C Red Dead Redemption thread!!!
Yeah a mountain lion has completely slaughtered me and my horse a couple times. :lol:

I'll try again but I looked on the big map and no "purple dot no-where near Hanging Rock In the case of the quest you're talking about, look Spoiler:
You don't accept anything -- just follow them/save them/do what they say and you'll get fame and honor (or not, or lose it) depending on what you do. Well that's just it...he rode up while on the horse and then just stood still. I even moved around on my horse and nothing, just stayed in the same place so that's why I was like, do I push some button or what. You need the lasso. Once you have it, you need to lasso them, hogtie them, and take them back to the sherrif. You get the lasso Spoiler:

Re: Official Larry C Red Dead Redemption thread!!!
K&A Jones - are you sure you didn't already complete the 'first' part of that mission (if we are in fact talking about the missing kid mission)??
I say this because the purple dot (which sticks out like a sore thumb on the map) by hanging rock only leads you to a quick review of "eveidence" followed by a quick cut scene that shows marston holding up a shoe and looking at some blood on the ground. |
