When you're playing as Arthur Morgan, you can bet that at some point, you are going to get into trouble. Whether you harm a person on purpose or accidentally run over them on your horse, eventually, a bounty will be placed on your h

about.phpThe picture in the second Jack Hall Treasure Map is of the Cotorra Springs, a location to the north of the Cumberland Forest. It’s hard to miss them. The water of the springs is beautifully clear, and what looks like geysers are in the area. To the west of the springs is a strange cluster of rock pi

Red Dead Online _ is, well, something to behold. While there are elements in there that _could make this game the best online gaming experience yet, Rockstar has been slow in implementing helpful features and doing something about the insane amount of griefers that populate their western world. Nothing is more frustrating than fishing for an hour so you can get your gold and honor up, only to have some neckbeard camper wait until you reach the butcher to kill you or steal your wares. It makes the act of actually progressing in the story mode online somewhat impossible, and for people not looking for PVP gameplay, it makes for an all but unplayable and trying game experie

If people think lassoing or killing you is cool because it ruins your game, make them feel the opposite and take the joy out of trolling for them. In other words, leave chat and your mic on and when people get near you, beg them to kill you, or if they lasso you bust out reverse psychology and tell them "thank you". They are doing it solely to feel the empowerment of being an *sshole, so when you strip that element from them, you might just be surprised how quickly they collectively lose interest in you and go look for some 14 year old who will legit sob into their

Just because the Van der Linde Gang is a group of outlaws, doesn't mean they're averse to usury. Leopold Strauss is the member of the Gang who gives loans to people with extremely high interest rates. He then sends Arthur to collect the de

Once you’ve deciphered the second High Stakes Treasure Map (or just checked out this article in order to do so more quickly), it should lead you into the Grizzlies West. The next stash and map are located just a tad to the north of Barrow Lag

There are sixteen legendary animals to be found throughout Red Dead Redemption 2 , and luckily, none of them are very hard to find or eliminate. All it takes is acquiring the legendary animal map, riding to the location, and quickly disposing of the animal. It takes maybe ten minutes, and the animals don't put up much of a challenge. You can then sell their skins (and some of their bodies) to the trapper who pays quite handsomely for the rare items. If that wasn't all, you can also use their parts to craft trinkets and special garments and outfits. Going after the legendary animals is a no-brai

Due to the infamous ferry robbery, no one from the Van der Linde gang is allowed to step foot in Blackwater. However, no one there should know about the women. It's established that the ladies of the Van der Linde gang do not partake in the heists, and therefore, the law should not know of their identities. And even if they know their names, they wouldn't know their fa

Bounty hunting has returned from the first game, and while the bounties don't seem as plentiful this time around, they still provide a decent income for the more morally inclined among us. There are a total of eleven bounty missions throughout the game, and they collectively pay $650. That's roughly $60 per bounty, which is certainly not a bad take considering the limited amount of work involved. Plus, hunting down bad guys is always a good time. It may not be the fastest way to make money, but it's honest work. Kind

Also, with a white flag hoisted in your camp, no one can attack. But they can see you and wanna kill you, so do what we do. Set up a camp near Saint Denis (high population, high traffic), and then go cook yourself dinner (in real life, in your actual kitchen) and come back to check now and then that 23 players are circling, waiting for you to tear down camp, lasso in hands. After about 30 minutes, they will wander off, one by one, and you will feel oddly satisfied inside that you wasted their time while not wasting your

The world of red dead redemption 2 Crafting guide Dead Redemption 2 is an expensive one indeed. Not only are there lots of things to buy (or buy off)— stuff like clothes, weapons, and bounties— but income is virtually non-existent. You play as outlaw Arthur Morgan, who is a member of the infamous Van der Linde gang. The only thing is that the gang (by virtue of being a gang) doesn't really have a reliable or steady source of income. On top of that, the country is moving on (both technologically and socially) and leaving the life of outlaws and cowboys in the literal dust. The gang is forced to loan money to beggars at exorbitant interest rates, rob trains and banks, and do menial odd jobs just to get by. As such, money is tight with a capita
