Red Dead Redemption -- Discussion for Rockstar's romp in the Wild West

Undead Nightmare is a great addition, but I'd say sustenance comes first.

 

okay so john Marston is dead, now i am jack. now what?? i don't see any missions?

 

Might want to be aware of spoilers? There is a spoiler thread.

But yeah, there is one more stranger mission.

 

I'm in the middle of this game, JediMatteus. You are an ass.

 

Ouch. Yeah, spoiler thread is here (though you'll have to ask one of the mods to unlock it). May not want to be so blatant about things of that nature in the future.

But anyway, I 100%ed Undead Nightmare. Took me around eight and a half hours, and it was a blast from start to finish. Now I want Marston to get abducted by aliens. Red Dead Invasion. Make it happen, R*!

oh sorry folks, i thought this was a spoiler thread. after all this game has been out for like 8 months

 

by the way i love this

The last "stranger mission" -- which shoud've been the last story mission of the game IMO given its weight and outcome -- is triggered in Blackwater right after Jack finishes burying the rest of his family. The marker is near the railroad station. Once you trigger it, prepare for a somewhat lenghty journey towards its final conclusion south of the border.

 

thank you

 

Just a quick question for anyone who's bought the disk version of Undead Nightmare. Does it install direct onto your hard-drive (like the disk version of the Fallout 3 DLC) or do you need the disk to play it?

 

The disc version's already out? I thought that was supposed to come out along with all realeased DLC as a standalone disc (like GTA IV's Liberty City Stories).

 

You need to have the disc to play it. This prevents people from renting it on a service like GameFly, installing it to their hard drive, and returning it.

It's in stores now. It includes the Undead Nightmare Pack, the Legends and Killers Pack and the Liars and Cheats Pack.

 

Damn . I was gonna buy it cheap on pre-owned and then sell it on again.

Still, when I got the DLC for Fallout 3 on disk, it just installed it to my hard-drive, which is odd.

 

Samus is a girl.
You are Darth Revan.

 

The disc version came out in November, and like Reynar said, includes the other "pay" DLC packs.

Alternately, online they're offering the "Undead Nightmare" pack which is essentially all the pay DLC in one pack. The packs include everything except "Outlaws to the End", the free co-op pack...and the Expert Hunter/Savvy Merchant outfits.

 

i wasn't purposely an ass. i just thought after 8 months it waas old news

 

Guess we can't be too upset with the guy. After all, the spoilers thread it locked.

 

i see your being facetious.

 

I'm not being facetious. Click the link, the spoiler thread is locked. Dunno why, but it is.

 

Because nobody's posted in it for 7 months because the game is 'old' now.

If you are in a thread about a game that has been out for 6 months+, you have to expect that it will contain spoilers.

 

But unfortunately, there will always be someone who has just picked up the game and certainly doesn't need to see such a huge spoiler in plain view. Thus, the spoilers thread should be unlocked.

 

Edit: Nevermind, I misread something.

 

Picked the disc version up last night and played a little but...where are the other DLC packs it was supposed to come with? I was only able to access Undead Nightmare, where's the rest of the promised DLC? Online only? The instruction manual doesn't say and no prompt came up for other DLC. If it is online only...why do I have to be connected to the *** **** ******* internet to access something that's on a disc that I payed for?!

I know a lot of you like playing online, but where's R*'s consideration for players who prefer their single player games to stay single player? How hard would it have been to make a few outfits and weapons available from the disc ala Oblivion's DLC disc?

Also a little bummed that I can't transfer outfits from UN to the main game

Saves for UN and RDR are completely seperate. I can understand GTA's DLC being seperate (kinda, not really but I'll live) because they each feature different playable characters, but why can't I wear the Union Suit in the main game? It's the same John Marston, I oughtta be able to wear any outfit that's unlocked. I can't pass judgement on UN itself just yet as I just started, but so far the disc is not worth the $.

 

Aw, man. That sucks. I'm sorry to hear you're having issues with the disc.

 

^^ Thanks, man.

While I'm still bummed about it, I picked up Alan Wake at the same time and that is definitely taking the sting away

What an awesome game! Had RDR not come out at the same time I may have picked it up sooner
