Red Dead Redemption 2 - 10 Things I Wish I Knew Before Playing (Tips & Tricks) 

I figured this out when I was trying to figure out how to quick switch guns. Sadly there's no quick switch 😪

@@MarzSanctum Makes it more immersive to me, having to put your pistol away and take your rifle off your shoulder, maybe chamber a round and then you can use it. I've tried switching from sidearm to rifle before in reenactments and it isn't as quick as games make it seem unfortunately. My No.1 MKIII sling got caught on my webbing when I tried to 'quickdraw' it.

This one comment is better than the entire video.

also use the D pad when ads to do things like shoot up in the air or aim down sights or change shoulder perspective.

I WAS TRYNA FIGURE THIS OUT CAUSE A CHICK TALKED ABOUT IT

First 15 minutes after the prologue

Dude I saw a guy get his ass whooped in the bar so I picked him up to get him out of the way then I got accused of murdered and had to clean out the whole town lmao now I have a $300 bounty

ST ain't it funny how that happens lol

ST that escalated quickly

I got a $450 bounty already for robbing everyone and killing the law too much, only 30 mins into chapter 2 lol

Lmao

My thought too

Thought the same thing

I died when I saw that's In this game xD I had way to much fun literally getting stranded away from my horse for 2 hours XDLOL

and smoke ur joint

Soviet Wombat failed that 30min in

GOOD FUCKING LUCK

Hahaha yea good luck with that one man

First horse jumped off a water fall when I called her Second horse ran off cliff Third horse followed me to a rail station but stayed on the tracks when I went inside and well you can guess what happened 3rd horse was a legendary arabian horse as well

I have kept my 2 horses alive so far. Even on horrible falls they just get back up. I'm actually surprised how resilient they've been.

It probably broke a leg.

nice.

What myn fell over a trunk and got back up ok

Your horse was Chinese I got that hard working Mexican horse he drinks tequila and eat tacos 😂

@@Eljoker-sl7wy LMFAO 😂

This is by far the best Skinning Simulator....Love that

Disliked before I even clicked.

Neto Silveira the skinning alone of the animals should be made into a 60 dollars game lol

U sick fuck 🤣🤣🤣

Seeing Arthur rip the skin off a rabbit with his bear hands is pretty much the only reason to get this game.

😭

Dakota Sowards i named mine 'SnowBelly'... we got ambushed and surrounded by a group of 10+ bounty hunters for a 50 dollar bounty, they gunned her down and then me. Boy, did my bounty go up after that

@@Risk401 I'm always wandering why the bounty stays the same or even goes up when you actually just got killed.....,like when my bounty is around 200$ i kinda can't do shit whitout getiting hunted and eventually gunned down

Kofi -kun put your mask thing on, apparently that stops them from seeing you

Same happened to me, but slightly different circumstances. I was tryna hop on the train and my horse "Duke" turned its head towards the train and got smaaaaacked.

Exactly what I did Second time I kicked more ass cus I knew what I was doing

When the first 5 hours of gameplay is fiquring out why my gun doesnt shoot the second trigger pull, then being dumbfounded at the little tree casting the big shadow

I’m probably gonna fast travel or walk tbh 😂 I don’t have the heart to watch my horse die

You can start a new game over but it will never bring your horse back from the dead Luis. You'll need to live with that guilt forever.

Lol my pre order horse is a champ has never died and I'm 40 hours in

Carl Redington thanks for saving 10mins of my time mate

Thanks this guy talks so much

Best comment

Thanks. This guy is an ass.

You're doing God's work lol

THUNDERxX45 your life maybe, cause you’re probably a loser

Polo Garcia Damn, you come up with that all by yourself?

@@pologarcia516 woah there bucko, no need for all the roasts

Definitely my life.

Polo Garcia Lol kid your comment seems ironic as hell cause only a loser would try to pick on others in the youtube comments section, maybe try to avoid bullying people when you're on your man-period :)

Yes it is i have probably discovered like 40% of the map just by hunting different animals!

Yeah I did same plus treasure hunting maxed out the camp upgrades horse and current weapons should be an easy transition through the next few chapters

18 hrs in and my only mission on chapter 2 have been the side mission, hunting the gunslingers for the book between hunting animals and the missions maybe will spend 200 hours for the full game.

That’s where everyone is stuck. All story mode does is give you insane bounties. Not worth the trouble.

Its irritatingly stressful, to attempt the smaller animals like birds/skunks/badgers. As it SHOULD BE, animals don't just let you kill em, and they did that perfectly in my opinion.

DoubleEagleTV actually the horses just look at you and you instantly die

There's going to be a big difference between this game and gta online.

@@bluidguy4007 i think rdr2 online will be more like a mmorpg

ベント yeah, I agree with you I think it will be a lot better than the first rdr online. It was alright if you had friends online but I never met many people willing to work together.

@@bluidguy4007 i still loved it tho! i remember triple xp weekends and shooting up fort's all day.

You're an inspiration to all of us.

I want to hogtie someone and set them on some railroad tracks, and wait. Has to be someone who needs to die though, since I'm an honorable Aurthur.

jack put him on the train tracks lol

I captured an odriscoll but it didn't let me bring him to camp as a prisoner :( The game automatically made me set him free so i gunned him down as he fled lol

jack My kind of guy

They only sell for 500 if your honor meter is in the middle if it's all the way to the right you get 700 per peice if you like me and you got it all the way to the left then it's 200 a piece

Yep I think I already killed that guy... Was he some dude that wanted to see your shooting skills?

@@ROR5CH4CH no that was a different guy this was an explorer the one you shot was a gunslinger testing his skills

Yeah I dragged him into the bushes and slit his throat after he wanted $10 from me after losing a shooting competition lol.

Jeff Walters game of the year lmfao

Lol

Lol. It is funny how Mr. ClickBaitFTW is trying to jump on the RDR2 bandwagon and is now getting less views than DatLazyFan, his views are in very low. Lol I love to see him fail.

@@ytubegmailusername same

First Name haha you’re so fuckin kool

First Name I honestly hope his channel gets deleted lmao

Well it's better than a loading screen. Besides that tip is a life saver, I was riding and it was morning so drinking coffee and needed to use one hand for the controller using my pinky for the thumbstick and my thumb for my "A" button while using my other hand for coffee...it was going ok until I ran into a ambush and spilled my coffee in a panic.

Cirrus Fox how bout you pause the game and then drink your coffee?

@@gabriel897100 I would but pausing the game everytime I want to take a sip of coffee before It gets cold is rather annoying

@@cirrusfox8052 i meant why don't you just pause the game, have your coffee, then play the game

@@gabriel897100 cause I can't put this game down

max bounty is 300$ though?

Lol bruh I always end up with a bounty after accidentally hitting someone with my horse then trying to get the witnesses.... Also last night I rented a room and then there was a guy in there, he tried to fight me and I ended up with a bounty....wtf

@@tyson2527 you can definitely go higher than $300. I have like $900 almost everywhere because I keep robbing stores and killing all the cops and bounty hunters.

Haik Kn just ignore the witnesses and accept a measly $15 bounty and pay it off easily, escaping from the law in this game is super easy.

Hahahahahaha that sucks

lydon corbin you can do it if your checking your phone and if let’s say your mom asks you to do something or you have to go to the bathroom you can do it and have someone watch the game and call out to you if anything happens

Or you could just press pause how crazy is that.

John Doe lol

@@JohnDoe-fb9ze I was just gonna say that lmao. This generations attention span is out of control lol

Yeah so after i heard about this i did that and literally after 30 seconds my ass got robbed and they where shooting my horse i was drinking some water and ik was like excuse me wtf is this so i smacked my water down on the table and started killing these mf’s

Even on the og xo. By far not as much as on the x but it's fine

It still looks really really good on just my regular old playstation 4, and a flatscreen tv nothing fancy and it still looks so goddamn good. I love rockstar games.

You are joking? This game looks like early 2010 graphics I got a refund from gamestop

Tom Coffin If that makes you happy. Have fun missing out on the plot

G2H3LL if I want plot for things that I basically cant see, I’ll get an audio book

Dont drink and horse

Godlike

First time i want to town with uncle and the stage coach the train Come along and broke My horses neck

Wanted for murder. Weapon used: horse

😂😂😂😂😂

Zac Fitzgerald the butcher in Valentine wouldnt take my legendary bear pelt but I lost it so its gone forever😭

@@TH0UX4N "Legendary" and "Perfect" are two different things. You can sell perfect pelts to any butcher. Also, I don't think you can get rid of that pelt. Try going to a Trapper (Paw Mark on map, only at two locations Saint Denis being one, a remote stall near where you killed the bear is the other) the pelt should show up as "sell-able" to him. After selling him a Legendary pelt he can craft items with it, granted, nearly all items require other perfect pelts on top of the legendary pelt.

@@TH0UX4N You'll have lost the opportunity to sell it for money, but the Trapper will have it logged that you got it so you can still get the legendary bear outfit items from it. And you can sell perfect pelts to any butcher, but many of them are useful for crafting at the camp, and the trapper needs perfect pelts of many varieties to make many of the legendary clothes. So, it's a good idea to donate to camp or sell to trapper. You'll know if you need it for crafting at the camp if it shows you a monetary value when you select it in the donate screen. If it shows no money value, then it's needed for crafting. If it has a money value, you don't need it at the camp.

Lord artem

Without your hat you can’t be a true Rootin Tootin Cowboy

I gave up on my hat

@@glynnis11 Me too, every time I think about it... nope, no hat 🤨

Lost mine In the first train robbery lol

TheKapttain did u buy a at or take it off a dead body? And if u buy them change hats then change back hats at camp it will be gone

TheKapttain if it’s one from a dead body it’s in there for ever and if u loose that hat it’s gone forever unlike ones u buy

I haven’t seen any holes in hats. I also haven’t seen any limbs shot off. Has anyone?

J C I blew a guys head off with the double barrel shotgun

I also blew a guy’s head off with a double barrel. He was on the side of the road begging for help so I stopped and he pulled me off the horse and got on it so I quickly took out my double barrel and blew his head off

rauntZz _PERTH I cant stand the hit market

@@Thumbogreen im sure you can turn them off

@@Draganox25 how?

If you just play the story you will get alot of money

@@lucabracco1 yeah but not 4k so fast

Where are the gold bars at?

Locations please!!! Lol

Just search them up I know theirs I gold bar in a burnt Down sheriffs office near the first camp. And theirs another one with these statues you get 3 from that. Also their are a few treasure hunts that you can get the maps from random encounters

7:36

Viking Raiders No, it isn’t.

lol lol yeah that shit pretty fucking dead lmaoo

IHOME BODI rdr 2 is way better, right?

Gta online ia trash

LOL, I still prefer story over online

Me too. I had legendary wolf pelt on its backside and when it was shot I literally screamed and i was just taking out Pinkertons left right and centre whilst desperately trying to wake her up. Sad moment :(

Horse revives man

Try sprinting towards an enemy with your shotgun out and press B, you’ll tackle him, then press RT for the execute. Don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

First weapon I wanted to get. So much fun on horse back.

Shotguns are great in this game, grab some slugs and shoot from range too.

Who gives a shit what you did?

@@v82mp95 Jesus you're pissed for some reason. Seen you on multiple comments now. Calm down and let people tell their experiences of the game.

Also explosive bullets will open safes

I think it's from old crimes that you committed. You prolly killed someone and didnt hide there body so it was eventually found. Crazy right?

@@JamesTheAxeThrower Doesn't work like that genius... No witness, no crime!

No you didn't! What was the bounty classed as???? Being a fucking idiot?

Ditron how, where?

There's a lady who's digging up dinosaur bones and you can help her find them for a finders fee

Desert area near Valintine

Sarah luv well shit thanks

Tyclone Well, it cant be perfect

Yh I got run over by a train cuz I went to the bathroom. Had to reload a save from 20 min earlier

@@account4345 Why can't it be perfect? I don't see the NPC's run into things so I don't understand why the AI for the autorun can't be just as good once a destination is set.

kuunami They can’t account for everything that could happen, there’s hundreds of things that could happen, it would take forever for the devs to make sure the player won’t run into every train at a super specific time period.

It took me and my horse straight off a cliff. I trusted it even though I knew it looked like a cliff.

That's detail right there

Not if just one species shits they all have 2 at the same time!! And fartjokes

Eatongee 😂😂😂😂

I just wish it didn’t always look like diarrhea😂

@@sethfeldpausch4337 That horse aint eatin' right.

I got it by haleping a photographer get his bag back from a coyote. It was a side mission i happend to stumble upon when just free roaming

@@jessehern91 I guess there's multiple ways. That's pretty handy

Saas Kulero where did u come across this photographer??

@@Nico-ih8ew Pretty sure he's in a small clearing around Strawberry; just look around the woods in that area and the grey stranger circle will appear

Grand Theft Live Stock.

Apocalyptic Eclipse Auto

Grand Theft Autorun

Grand Theft Horse. 🐎

I think those are Red Dead Online items which will be released next month, I believe.

Just sign into your social club then restart the game as in close the application

You have to play story mode more and it will become unlocked in Chapter 1 at the gunsmith store.

@@mastap4713 I'll try that cheers

Treasure hunt

They have the manual in the game goofy

shirts lolol this guy is so used to digital downloads he forgot they still make physical copies with manuals.

This game explains everything for you as you go along...

@@barroldtrumboma9162 not true. Theres stuff they never tell you about. For instance I had to figure out myself that pushing down on d-pad made you aim down sights.

James Burrus That’s Literally the only thing I encountered in the game that wasn’t explained.

fortnite will be dead yeah, fortnight is still a commonly used term so i don't think it will die

Sadly it won't be. You have to understand this is a very niche game. The old west is a very American thing, it's not going to be as popular around the world like fortnite.

Fortnite has a different audience. Nope, not even a fan of fn but thats just reality. Kids love that shit

DUCK NATION never heard anyone use fortnight recently tbh.... I only heard it in the book animal farm

Na this shit boring af no pvp

Love it.

Dwight Schrute it’s almost 3 pm snute. Shouldn’t you be in the warehouse with Angela?! Btw Phillip is NOT yours lol

Rising Pure i used to do that but that app literally chews my battery up

Isn't compatible with my ghetto ass Android. 😡

Dat Saintsfan first

Dat Saintsfan hey be sure not to face plant on trees man

This is a really good list!

Cant believe im watching rdr tips 5 years later after gta v in 2013. Time flies, shits crazy

these* tips

Sign into your social club

I'm signed in and my account is linked and everything

First you have to advance in the story a little more to unlock it. Only If you completed the treasure hunt challenges in GTA online.

@@redharlow7705 get a lil further in the game if it dont pop up then it prolly is for online only

It doesn't unlock right away. You have to make some more progress in story mode.

dustin johnson !!ynneL

Ottie J. Lneny!!!

Gret

Yep right next to a corpse too

All.... The.... Time.... I don't feed him enough to warrant that much shit

No

Right on my new fuckin boots

No u don't have to have internet to play story mode with a disc

Yes, there is a 3 gb patch over network. The rest is from discs

@@stevem9529 The patch is optional, so the aswer to the question is no

No, I dont have internet and I'm able to play it

Yes expect for ADS.

I actually missed the tip about the shoulder swapping I saw it yesterday on someone's stream. It's just a quick prompt so it's easy to miss. Everything else is fairly easy to figure out eventually

@@Radioactive_exe yeah the prompts telling you what to do come and go too fast for me. By the time I notice it and start reading it it disappears lolol

Didn't know about the three star wildlife. Very helpful because I am a perfect pelt hunter and was wondering why some clean kills weren't perfect, assumed it was RNG.

@@TheGodzebra the way the game explains it to you makes you think any animal can have a perfect pelt. It's super deceiving lolol

That's for the online in red dead redemption I think. I do not think that they are for single player.

Justin Hazelton easy quit gta play red dead

No words?????? Ur a real fucking genius you are eh? No words after your comment.....wow

dlayne21 don’t get hit.

And hit them back

X for blocking. B for punching. Simple really.

I got my ass kicked by a guy in a fist fight when I was trying to help the reverend. Next time I did that mission I pulled out my knife and I sliced him up. He died and a witness saw, so I had to chase him down and kill him too 😂

Dat Saintsfan first

I have one question, so I was hunting the legendary bear but i died, and now the bear is just not there, how can I find the bear again?

Achilles 1996 you shoot the bear a few times and it runs off

@@Achilleas_1996 im told grizzlies east it is located.

@@zayounaf2304 Why tf is being first so important to people? Do you get some kind of YT cred? "ooooh that guy was first! Look out y'all!"

Calm down drama queen, you'll be thankful for it in a week or two

Yeah if you wanna use the companion app

Well I love the auto run So I can smoke my weed

BLANC BANGA fair enough

BLANC BANGA lmao best reason

But it does not follow roads, plus cinematic camera looks awesome, especially with the gang.

Toggle run is for Arthur and only so you tap to run instead of holding the button

This is why drugs are bad kids..... Stop smoking that crack dipshit, toggle run has ZERO to do with auto run and/or cinematic mode.

No... you really didn't!

Celestia Epic Ok we get it...

Smoke a phantom cigar

Wont happen hopefully.

Just hold Y or Triangle to skin it.

It didn't give me the option I've skinned many animals already

Zin Shadow 🤔 write an email to rockstar games

Sometimes u need to stand facing belly or try move the carcas push whilst on horse something lasso and drag

Bag might have been full. An info box in the corner told me I couldn’t harvest everything because of bag space. But the stupid part is that I cleared some space and went back but couldn’t interact with it anymore. Super lame
