Quoted: You need a ‘special’ lure to catch legendary fish. They have designated areas for each species, just like the legendary animals. There will be a map once you unlock that storyline. The sturgeon, for instance, can only be caught from/near a particular railroad trestle. There was a small pucker factor when the first train came by, but standing on the very edge leaves enough room not to get run over. View Quote |

So your basically telling me that I had the legendary fish on the hook then? ahhh damnit View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:
Quoted:
I think the special lure keeps other fish from biting. Granted, as of right now, I only have a sample size of one. I could very easily be wrong. Edit: As it took three tries, I’m pretty confident the legendary fish is the only one that will bite. It would have been awfully random that I hooked two regulars before landing the legendary fish on the third attempt. |

So I've been trying to do the gambling challenge. On win three consecutive wins at Dominos L. O. L. I've been playing for hours, and only won once.
|

The gambling in the game is definitely tilted.
I’ve played hours of poker in the game and the game cheats. Either it cheats or my character has the absolute worst luck known to man. You can’t bluff because one of the computer players will always be holding a winning hand if you aren’t, you can’t hardly win as you are dealt shit 9.9 times out of 10, and the very rare times you are holding the winning hand most of the players fold before the pot can escape break even territory. Thankfully there is absolutely no need to actually earn money in this game because the game just absolutely showers you in it from hold ups, treasure maps, and side missions. I don’t think I’m even a fourth of the way through the main story and I’m already decked out in what I think are the finest clothes from St. Denis, a fine haircut and trim, with the best saddle and tack, riding a very good horse, carrying the finest weapons the game will let me have, with a completely upgraded camp with two grand in the kitty, all the recipes I’ve found purchased, and I’m STILL walking around with over a grand in pocket money waiting to lose it on death tax or repeatedly trying to run a table gambling. |

I'm not doing that bad at poker. It's dominos where I'm having major issues.

Quoted: I'm in the exact opposite position. I absolutely destroy at dominoes, but can't clear a table at poker to save my life. And I could be missing it but where are the blackjack tables? St. Denis? View Quote |

Bet they come out with Red Dead Online this Friday the 30th. They said it'll be at the end of November. I figured they would have the trailer by now.

Maybe the games have a bit of an acquired skill aspect to them, similar to the dead eye? Over time you get better? View Quote |

Yep, I cannot win at poker despite trying so I stopped playing.
One of my family millennials was here for thanksgiving and he was also bragging how the poker was "easy" and that he was able to dominate it, so I had him play a round on my game... and he came away with the exact same "that computer is one cheating mother fucker" opinion. How is it that my game is so tilted? The game deals you shit cards 99 times out of a hundred (hey look at that a three of diamonds and an eight of clubs! and the flop is all high / face cards and non matching suits!), you cannot bluff because one of the computer players always holds a winning hand (well look at that, the same guy who has been winning the whole game is holding yet ANOTHER flush or high two pair!), and when you actually do manage to pull a winning hand everyone but one guy folds the first round in leaving you the tiniest ten cent pot the game can manage (get dealt a high pair from the jump, bid minimum so I don't spook the computer, aw look at that they are all folding already... and the holdout is captain call). So all your hands quickly become a chain of folds hoping for the right cards with the odd push or minor victory as one of the CPU players proceeds to run away with the money. It takes every fiber in my being to not just shoot the lot of them every time. Blackjack? I can win if I play smart. Dominoes? I can win if I play smart. Poker? Nope. You lose. Good day sir. |

It's impressive what Rockstar managed on console hardware. Makes me wonder how good it will look on PC

RDROnline out tomorrow for people who purchased the ultimate edition. Weeee!

Other than the RDR2 Online functionality, anyone know what was in that update yesterday?

Does anyone have a master list of user names for RDR2 online?
My screen name is PanzaBoy on PS4. |
|

Post them here, and I'll put them up in gaming. That thread will eventually be archived. Right now it's on page 7. It's not too far away.

So from what I'm seeing the economy of RDR2 Online is just as horrifically broken as the economy of the regular game... just backwards.
In single player RDR2 the game throws ludicrous piles of cash at you constantly so that it quickly becomes pointless, since you have enough ammo, clothes, horses, weapons, and supplies WITHOUT the thousands and thousands of dollars the game pumps into you. Meanwhile on RDR2 Online you earn pennies per mission and hundredths of fractions of gold in an economy in which everything costs full gold bars and thousands of dollars meaning you can't afford shit. Who is running the in game economy? Zimbabweans turned Venezuelans? |

Caught an 18lb sturgeon out by the boats on Flat Iron.
Not sure if it was legendary, but was taken back to camp right away. You can have 2 horses with you at all times. I hate dominoes. On the 3 win challenge. No joy. Burning through challenges more than story line right now. |

I picked this up this week, everyone at work is talking about it. WHile I game on Everything and seem to play Everything, the GTA and RDR series I never did. So, this is the first entry in the series for me.
Anyway, jumped right in to the Online bit. It's pretty fun! Kamicosmos on the PS4. (I dabble in World of Tanks on PS4 and PC and used to play R6 and CoD4 with the Arfclans way back.) |

Worst thing about this game:
Being eaten by wolves or cougars after getting a Legendary animal. |

I must be doing something wrong, I hunt, bring back the animal and it won’t let me donate it?
