I bought an xbox in 2018 just to play this game. I'm 70 years old now and still play every day. Your knowledge and your humor when teaching us makes the difference over all others. Thank you!!!
Except RDO is. To an obnoxious degree. A black female bountyhunter in Rhodes? Rhodes of all places they could have chosen? Or the crazy vegan chick that somehow wasn't arrested yet? Yeah RDO is god damn awful in that regard.
@@requiemagent3014 lol ok. Putting a black female person in power in the south of the Old West isn't progressive, it's a slightly harmful erasure of history. Progressive would be commenting on the terrible conditions the post civil war era was for black folk (wich RDR2 does just a bit)
@@quilzas I decided to leave mine on default because the reeling in feels more real (I’ll waste this opportunity for a pun) when I have to put in the work to finally get that gosh darn Muskie out of the water
Well you know, Im kinda good with the sniper. I once worked for a guy, called onlypvpdog. Back in 1963. He ordered me to get rid of some guy with help of another guy which name was Oswald I think
That was a whirlwind tour of the most salient tips in this game. It's crazy the number of mechanics this game doesn't explain to new players. Awesome video and tons of work, Cat!
Have I been playing this for 6 months ? Yes. Do I still play like , and will always continue to play like a noob , and always benefit from beginners videos ? Yes . 💯👍🏻❤️🎮 On the bright side I'm never disappointed with lack of updates or content , as there's simply to much for me to do in the game. Before I get beat up in here , I'm 54 and only play 2 hours a day. So cut me some slack ok guys. I barely have time to do my dailies .
@@piraat070 Believe it or not , I play PUBG too. 💯🔥 Probably one of the oldest players . 🤔. At my age however , it is a game of survival for me , as other players focus strictly on extremely high kill counts instead. If I hot drop I'm a dead man. 😂💯
Lol I'm 43 I work 50-70 hours a week man I log in do at least one daily at minimum and my wife just started playing I've been logging in to get her at least one daily too
For the trader if you shoot a perfect deer and it starts to bleed out just wait about 30 seconds to a minute for it to die. otherwise you'll damage the pelt if you finish it off. You might get bad honour but if you care about that just brush your horse 🤷♂️
You could finish them with a Mercy Kill, but the only way to unlock that ability is to cavort with the deranged Disney princess and her furry woodland creatures, and that's not worth it.
Naturalist role gets slept on. I agree it’s a slower and less profitable role for newbies but if you’re levelled up a bit and especially if you’re combining it with other roles it’s GREAT. Definitely recommend doing it alongside collector or bounty hunter.
I agree, I only play Naturalist, Collector, and Bounty these days especially because the Legendary Bounties are 2X. I do the Etta Doyle bounty then I collect all 4 sets of the Cards but while I am doing that I am also getting samples and also trying to complete the book. Today alone I completed a few animals 100% without really trying to
I'm up in the 400s rank-wise, but I still love roaming around, hunting and collecting. There is a very soothing rhythm to it all. I haven't even completed all of the bounty hunter legendries and such, and I imagine I haven't seen a lot of stranger missions, so I always have more things to do when I get an urge.
I've spent a week on the game and I'm at the point where I'm searching for hacks online because grinding for gold to get a fucking role is the most bullshit mechanic ever created. I JUST WANT TO PLAY THE ROLES FFS! But to do so I need to spend the rest of the entire life grinding for gold bars at 0.1 gold per event.
Ok bub, relax. Here’s a good exploit people have been using. It’s called patience. No really. Wait outside the turn in location to complete missions until the last 60 seconds of the time limit. You get more money and more importantly, gold. When you get to an area to turn in, let’s say you have 15 minutes. Watch a 5 minute video. Move your character so you don’t get kicked, then with your last bit of time: Watch videos until under 60 seconds, take a bathroom break, heck I even made spaghetti start to finish once within time.
First role for a new player who does not want to invest money should always be bounty hunter because it earns you gold which means you now have an easier time getting every other role.
If you want to sell anything in a solo lobby and you are in ps4 you can go to LAN cable settings, customized, and change the MTU from 1500 to 800, this puts you in a solo lobby in gta and red dead, it’s pretty useful. Edit: if I didn’t explain it we’ll search how to be in a solo public session in gta in ps4 (or in your device)
I got 9 gold bars from checking my awards, u earned a like and then some Cat I had no clue about this thank u so much man!! Would have given u a super like if I could!!
Yeah the black female bountyhunter in Rhodes, of all places, or the crazy vegan chick that still wasn't arrested yet. Yeah RDO is pretty progressive and very much obnoxious.
@@katiethurgar6047 Yeah riiiiiiiggggghhhhhtttt. Women back in 1898 weren't really able to handle a firearm. That was not a thing. The few female gunslinger were so few and far in between it was negligible. The black bountyhunter chick would have been arrested if not even worse in a place like Rhodes. Harriet would have been in an asylum a long time ago. Should I keep going? Reading a book might help. Also don't get me started on the clothing options. RDO is genuinely a joke in that regard but sure. I am just an incel. Honestly I rather been known as an InCeL then some illiterate idiot that doesn't even understand the genre he is playing.
@@requiemagent3014 I'd understand your complaint if you weren't complaining about Red Dead fucking Online, if you want realism out of RDO then you're playing the wrong game bud, also are you that butthurt that you're copy and pasting the same reply to comments related to his joke?
The biggest difference in horses is handling. Superior handling is easily the best, racing is better than standard. I disagree about long distance deliveries. They are worth $125 more than local deliveries and take about 12 minutes to complete. I only get attacked occassionally, like once in 15 deliveries, and when that happens if you log out you can retry the delivery. That costs you about 12 minutes of time for an extra $125 and only happens now and then.
My first role was Moonshiner. When I was around level 30 some random players invited me to posse and they've completed trader delivery. Later I realized that I can buy Moonshiner role because these players completed delivery with me in their posse.
I'm currently at lvl 44. Started playing in December when it was on sale. I adore this game despite not having more content or any new bells and whistles. I play to relax and roleplay with my horse. My current goal is to make enough money to buy nice outfits, another horse that's brave and tanky and just explore. I've unlocked all roles and I want to max them out. Bounty hunter is hard. I don't know what I'm doing and I lose my bounties. Maxed out Trader role without a hunting wagon. ( Have one now but no point lol ) Currently enjoying Collector role Moonshiner is ok.
Hi!! For bounty hunting once you get them you can knock them out! Hogtie them and kick them until you get the 'knockout' XP bonus! Don't hit them after that cause they can die!!
PVP Cat, thanks for the info., always delivered with a touch of humor :) This is not just for new players; great tips/refresher for veterans too. There’s so many mechanics it’s easy to forget a lot in this game.
Im coming back from your channel now after not watching for some months and HOLY COW, your content has improved! This video was hilarious, edited well, and informative. Props to you man.
I played pvp events before seeing that part. Got dusted. Destroyed. Oh and it’s dope to hear that the Nacogdoches saddle is best. I’m from Nacogdoches, Tx. And it’s nice that you pronounced it correctly.
I am on level 113 (im not a griefer).i decided a couple days ago to make a new account to see if people are kind to new players, then a posse showed up and they started killing me sooo i destroyed them with the carbine repeater(headshots with paint it black) So Op
You are so underrated, you really care about your subscribers, you take the time to explain instead of rushing it to make a 8 minute video. There is a reason why this video has so many likes! Thank you so much for this video, even as of today it really helped me out! I subbed to you man, you deserve it ❤
I've had this game for a pretty long time and I still didn't have a good understanding of anything in online, 11/10 guide would 100% recommend, thank you.
Really good video and very informative. I have been playing since beta and didn't learn about resetting the awards until last year when I watched one of your videos. I went through and immediately reset all of the ones that needed to be reset and earned something like 30 gold bars. It was great.
I could buy this video if it was released one and a half year ago when I needed it the most, but anyway it has great content for anyone playing rdo.Great video cat!
Blyatiful video! I've played wee bit over 200h, but whenever i'm having a lunch break or at home eating, i just watch your videos because One, your humor is 9/11 good and i always love learning more about the game.
Make a separate video adding little things like you can eat stew in valentine and blackwater . You can get canned food in a shack near lamoye. You can get jewelry in ranch in big valley .
Cat! When I listen to your video in English, I just laugh heartily) You have a direct Russian accent, and listening to you speak English is very funny) (funny in a good way)
I usually like to jump into games and try work things out for myself, rather than consult guides straight away. Its more of a slower learning curve and i get to enjoy the game for longer. A lot of the things here i had no idea about, im on pc so im free aiming.. i didnt know i had to set the damn options to free aim for a bonus! GRR this game.. there seems to be a lot of nuances like this that i am now aware of, thankyou!
yup its rubbish, i only played for about a week. Constant bugs, glitches and crashes. Modder/cheaters everywhere. Ive moved on to other games, i wish they did better with rdo. Very sad.@@therealxijinping3
I love you'r content so much and you'r accent 😅 thenk u for these tips i love the settings you recemanded so thenk u so much for thet ! WE AL LOVE YOU❤❤❤❤
Your final points are wonderful about just enjoying the game and it being meditative. Going out and hunting is something that helps me unwind from my work day. It's not incredibly profitable at all. I just enjoy being in an area with my horse and checking stuff out.
I like your sense of humor ... it adds up to the good information value of your videos. I started the game like 3 weaks ago ... without knowing this stuff but I did almost all things recommended here in terms of first rule selection and money investments into equipment, now on LvL 101 still can not use dead eye ... playing without it hehe. And I like the end of your video that most important is the fun from game play ... I am playing it just for relax on PC and sometimes running to ppl which are spoiling fun to others with use of cheats which is sad but now I am trying to avoid such ppl and servers so it is better.
I’m about to play this game for the first time and I’m excited! I love games like this, Skyrim and all that where u can just rome around and do random shit lol
@@sean7940 I reckon for someone who’s new to the game and has never known dailies before they were so radically nerfed, they still feel like something worth logging on for on a daily basis in order to be able to buy the next role. As for me, even though I’ve been playing since beta (with some larger breaks), the dailies are still the thing I do most when I play, just because they are the most meditative (to quote OnlyPVPCat here) thing to do in the game. But I don’t feel compelled to commit to a 28+ day streak any more like I used to. I feel like I have hoarded enough gold for the next 15 updates by now anyway
As a player that have gotten myself to rank 435 (simply from playing a lot and doing lots of collecting) I am still very much not pvp person overall when it comes to other players. A showdown here and there might be fine or some play fighting within the posse is cool. I do the pve encounters whenever I see them. I get that the tonics are incredibly OP…but…they’re the only thing between me and the griefers when I come across them. Sure the griefers use then too. But while I see myself as a more than ok shooter when it comes to PVE, hunting or just messing around with friends…I do NOT stand a single chance against some of the really good shooters out there…so having these tonics is a life saver for me…I mean I even use them just when doing other stuff…I mean they’re also handy when you’re too lazy to go around and down a cliff edge…I just grab a lvl 2 tonic for me and the horse and we just jump down it 😂
If you have the ultimate edition you can get varmint rifle, pump action shotgun and 2 volcanic pistols for free. As well a free dog for your camp, the survivor camp theme for free for your camp, black chestnut thoroughbreds horses for free, bonus outfit and rank bonuses.
Do you think if they add player housing that they will expand the Wardrobe so that you could have more outfits and do you think we'll ever get new Saddles and saddle bags to hold more outfits on your horse or to be better than the settles we already have in game?
Played for the 1st time today, this was helpfull and funny 😂 I think I will do bounty hubter first as role, I have 3 other players who help me out with the gold and money, they just didn't know what to teach me apperently, and dragged me on adventures wich i had no idea worked 😅
1.Go fps for pvp dor better movement 2.use the switch shoulder left dpad 3.save your gold for roles 4.you can hunt 3* big game with a poison arrow 5.you can lasso-to- knife certain animals 6.you can bow hunt fish for 3* with small game arrows 7.use a medium wagon for trades for a good income flow instead of large 8.treasure chests are awesome for gold 9.Utilise a random horse to help carry an extra bounty or pelt/carcass if you are without a wagon 10.have fun, slow down and enjoy the game. KEEP CARCASSES WHOLE FOR MAX PROFIT
Great vid cat as always. Im a veteran player so I know all of this but I'll refer all new players I meet to your channel. This surely will help them a lot.
Yep like in IRL! I remember being in Kabul and requesting RTB after snagging a HVT and the TOC was like “ naw bro, to soon… play some Xbox and chill”. Really messed up our op tempo.
"Don't buy Naturalist first, it's not for new players." Me, a person who bought Naturalist first because it was the most interesting sounding to me: *NOW you tell me.*
i absolutley advise to do the long distance deliveriers even as a beginner. You can do it easily in a solo lobby and as a side effect there will spawn many legendary animals if you have leveled up the naturalist role.
Not anymore you can’t. I tried my first distant delivery and got destroyed by ONE player who used ONE fire bottle. Fire bottles are op and will insta-fail you the delivery.
Oh yeah the black female bountyhunter in Rhodes. Or the crazy vegan chick that somehow wasn't arrested yet. Yeah this game is so accurate and not progressive.
Wretched Joseph lol no, it’s full with inaccurate progressive ideas. While rdr1 wanted to parody the Wild West rdr2 basically wanted to push progressive agenda into it.
Thanks for doing your best to help others play and enjoy the game. As many greifers in gtav there is a lot more ppl tryingto help others enjoy that game online and im one of them that helps low level ppl get money and get them going on their own and help them with tough missions that aren’t so easy to do alone but ive noticed that a lot of ppl come off as nice on rdr2 but not many youtuber or gamers are actually that friendly and do their best to make a person hate the game instead of helping them and since u can’t open the map and see where everyone is and see what’s actually going on unless you are close by it gets infuriating and thus therefore bonds aren’t made, friendships aren’t always created and ppl just go back to gtav or a different game they were playing. Personally I owned this game probably before most of the jerks and beat story mode twice and played a little bit of the beta online but the mechanics are so close to gtav but different i found myself messing up in both games when id try to go back and forth between the two. Rdr2 will get a lot more love online after gtav has dried up or is extremely close to if they don’t move progress from gtav to gtavi online (since gta online is supposedly a stand alone now 🤔) but id like to get better at online in rdr2 because it’s actually a buffer for gta 6 but beyond that i love it and think it’s a great game. As toxic as the ppl are and can be on gtav they tend to talk bs for fun mostly but typically will change up right away and help a person make money and teach them while playing. Rdr2 on the other hand is a lot of i did this now u do it and i will hurt you and keep u from getting where i am as best i can for no reason other than im a piece of shit and hate my life. Rdr2 is not as friendly as gtav. Rockstar knows it and i knew it before anything! No one is buying gold bars to be called names but friends i can give money to legit buy sharkcards to get into the action now and have fun. Thank you for this because I know story mode but i also know gtav story and I know they are both very different worlds! ( meaning online versus the story mode for both games)
on my xbox i was around level 50 and had a decent method for money. completely forgot it now and i’m getting red dead tomorrow for my ps5. thanks for the tips
Thank You SO MUCH! 😄 Mine parents didn't wanted to buy me that game few years ago, but Lucky I got it in last christmas and Now I Can finnaly play it! Thanks for the tips, I was really worried that I won't be able to figure out certian things. I don't have Brother neither friend who would like to join me and show the basics. Thank You!
Nope. If your friend has more more two working brain cells he should stay far far away from this train wreck. It's neither worth your time or money. Even if it would be a free to play game this game isn't worth wasting time on it. You are a shitty friend for trying to reel in another person into this mess.
@@requiemagent3014 So because you don't like the game, no one else should be able to like it as well and people who do like the game don't have more then two brain cells? If that's your point of view, you're the one who's missing brain cells.
Wish I'd seen this year and half ago. I struggled to stay alive and keep ammo cause griefers loved my low levels. First role was collector- when had enuf gold -got bounty hunter- which was so glitched never could play it. Ended up doing all other roles and came back to bounty and finished it last. So happy I found your vids- Thanks for all the tips along the way. Keep 'em coming, you help more people than you know.👍
