Maybe a little obvious, but playing through missions and completing objectives is a tried and true way to level up in Red Dead Online . Thankfully, the mode offers a variety of challenges, including stealing horses, lassoing enemies, and robbing trains — though some of these missions don't always make sense . As we mentioned before, these challenges are best taken on in a group, but even if you’re a lone wolf there’s still a lot to be gained from finishing the game’s many missi

The last train job, the final heist of them all. In the heat of the robbery, John is shot, and Arthur witnesses him fall backward off the train. The player at this point has no idea what is happening to John or how he makes it back. They know he has to be alive for the events of original Red Dead Redemption to take place, but how does he make it back? Possibly a very cool Downloadable Content update for Red Dead Redemption 2 would be this mission, and it would answer a lot of questions regarding John’s survi

Most wouldn't think a game about racing horses around while shooting targets could be so thrilling, but, surprisingly enough, it is. Players mount up for this game mode and have to race around a track while avoiding other players and shooting raised targets. The appeal for Target Races lies in its ability to make players multitask as they will have to focus on shooting targets, eliminating players, and keeping their eyes on the road. Target Races is a delightful cluster of madn

Arthur Morgan could walk over freezing water and not feel the effects of frostbite or his limbs falling off. It is unclear why the game makers made such a realistic world only to give him this strangely unrealistic qual

Whether you’re facing off against friends in one of the game’s many competitive challenges or collaborating on a co-op mission, RDR2 ’s online mode is a natural successor to the game’s epic story and open world. For those looking to get a leg up on the competition and rise in the ranks, here are 10 tips on gaining extra experience points and levelling up your virtual cowboy fantasy into the legendary gunslinger you were always meant to

Depending on the choices you make throughout the game, you’ll earn one of two distinctions: gunslinger, for the more noble and honourable among us, or outlaw for those who prefer a more hands-on, devil-may-care approach. Your decisions as you play throughout the campaign will add to either side of the spectrum, eventually leading you towards the light or dark side. No matter which side you choose, following your path to its end point will nab you significant experience. Work your way towards maximum capacity on either side to earn an award and some handy

Gang hideouts are hidden throughout the world of Red Dead Online , and clearing them out is a great way to gain experience as well as extra cash and items. While wiping out a hideout itself will nab you experience, headshots and executions make up the bulk of your rewards. Saving the gang leader for last will often earn you a treasure map which you can follow to find rare items and equipm

While Hosea being killed is certainly the moment where things turn from bad to worse for Arthur Morgan, he at least has the hope that he can get back home and live something resembling a normal life. Unfortunately, once returning from Guarma, Arthur is diagnosed with a case of tuberculosis that’ll end up killing him sooner rather than la

In the midst of Arthur’s final moments, he holds off the Pinkertons and former gang members to allow John’s escape. This leads to a truly brutal fight with Micah Bell, that ends in both men suffering severe wounds. In the end, Arthur’s tuberculosis cripples him too much and Micah gets the upper hand. Depending on the player’s honor level, a series of different dialogues will happen, but one that will always happen is Arthur’s last words to Du

Shootout is Red Dead Online's version of deathmatch, and players can play a free-for-all or team mode of it. It's a classic take on a game mode that has been around since the dawn of first-person and third-person shooters. Like Gun Rush, it is a fun mode, but the gameplay, or should we say "gunplay," of Red Dead Redemption 2 is not its strong suit. It's all fun and games to play as cowboys for a little bit, but without the precision usually required for a competitive shooter, Shootout falls sh

Red Dead Redemption 2 has earned its place as one of the most ambitious Open world games missions-world video games ever made, but exploring its dark and dangerous world can get a little lonely — which is why the game’s multiplayer mode, Red Dead Online , is such a breath of fresh

He was allowed to visit a number of cities and he never decided they were good enough for him to settle down in, so why would anywhere else be different? His false hope confused us and we wish he would have gone with Mary Linton so we could have seen exactly what he was talking about in terms of a better life and place to l
