Red Dead Redemption Part Deux

[Rocky]

My favourite thing about the Collector so far is you can buy an eye patch from her.

i also bought a dog straight away. Looks like a dirty version of my Labrador. He’s the best.

[Josh]

Honestly, they could have just added dogs and I’d still be just as thrilled.

The damn gypsy lady moves around like a damn gypsy and I can’t find her. I found the bulrush she wants, just want to buy maps for the egg and arrow head 😐

[apsham]

I fired this up this morning and luckily I had around 20 gold bars from what little online stuff I had already done. 

Started the Collector path and I really like the vibe. Gives me an excuse to do exactly what I wanted in terms of just messing around, and clearing markers on the map. 

Still wish I didn't hand to clench and hope that every person I go past isn't about to fuck with me, even on Defensive and low hostility.

I actually found duck eggs completely by accident. I can’t recall where they were. 😕

I found her. She’s by Beecher Hope today. I got duck eggs but also can’t remember from where. Loon eggs are north of Blackwater on the Lower Montana River and Goose eggs are NxNW of Thieves Landing near the intersection heading NxWxE along the river.

[Josh]

In Bluewater Marsh, near the northern tip of Bayou Nwa, there’s a large, muddy plain with burned out trees. One that’s tall and been split a bit down the middle has a nest of eggs up high. I tried shooting it down with my varmint rifle...only to realize I used my Bolt Action. I was then told by the game that it would have worked if I had used a Bow with small game arrows. Or a varmint rifle.

I had thought I’d found every species that you can in Red Dead Online. One of today’s challenges has taught me that, no, I have not.

[Rocky]

I’ve not really focussed on challenges because I’m not going to do the event ones. I might start doin the Roles Challenges though. Just for that slight do boost.

i need to put my head down and start doing some collections. Trading is a grind and I’ve not really dabble much in Bounty’s. I really need to get back into posses.

[apsham]

Is anyone else getting dropped out of online every like 15-20 minutes or so? It happened last night, this morning and tonight... it's impossible to get anything done when I lose anything that's on my horse because it's constantly crashing out.

[Josh]

Happened to me this morning and I had trouble getting back on. But everything was fine a few minutes later.

[Rocky]

I’ve not been disconnected once since the update though I had expected it.

Edit: just signed in, rode about 300yrds... DC  

[Rocky]

The metal detector is my best friend. Just using maps and cinematic travelling with the detector in hand has found me a lot of items and xp. Also the salvage event is pretty fun. Get a few items there too.

[Josh]

I’ve been steadily leveling up as a trader and now have the medium wagon, which makes your take for deliveries a lot better. I’ve played one special Trader Free Roam event and I quite liked it - you work *with* all the other traders to defend a train full of goods against attacking NPCs. You can rack up a fair amount of goods that way.

[Rocky]

Ooooooh that sounds fun. I’ve hit 14 in collector. Might focus on levelling Trader up. I want the hunters wagon.

[Josh]

Yeah, hunter’s wagon is what I want most.

[Rocky]

I’ve completed Collector ranks. Not quite finished the collections but am slowly getting there. I’ve maxed the Outlaw Pass level. Slowly building trader and bounty up to the wagon levels.

[Rocky]

Legendary Bounties. Not sure what you need to access them but I think they only appear occasionally. Posse or Solo. Cut scene in spoiler tags in case people want to see it in game

I’m finally working on all 3. I’m a lot further along on Trader, but I’m hoping to max all of them out (and the Outlaw Pass) by the end of the Outlaw Pass. Unsurprisingly, Bounty Hunting is my least favorite, but even that’s better than I expected.
