I lucked out, then. The few encounters I had with actual people, nobody said shit. And it was glorious. No squeakers or Mr "Got a mic? Got a mic? Got a mic...?"

SlickyTrickyDamon 12-11-2018 12:41 AM

Yeah had to shut it off when I was called the N word for shooting somebody.

Tangentially related to this: what the fuck happened to the term "beta"? I mean, the last time I remember a public test executed correctly was for the multiplayer component of Halo: Reach that was so far ahead of the finished product, that the beta was actually running under Halo 3's engine. They got feedback well in advance and was able to tweak one particular gameplay type (invasion) multiple times before it was even near its final form in retail.

Ever since then, it seemed like, true to form, other companies (and Bungie themselves) learned "the wrong lesson" on how popular that was on leading to game sales and now everyone is offering "beta" access, which just means either getting to play it a little bit early or just a band-aid on an unfinshed mess that you supposedly have no right to complain about because "it's totally in beta, guys". It isn't to stress test the game under normal, outside world player conditions or see how your servers can hold up, it's a marketing ploy.

The end.

Finally...……...fucking...……….finished.

Came in at just over 91% total completion.

rez 12-11-2018 08:59 PM

I want to get to dishonorable in online (without visiting Old Man Jones and spending the 3 gold bars) but fuck...it's damn near impossible when everything gives you honor.

Had a nice lure for cops in a hotel.. cap em as they came in but some honorable griefer bastard killed me.

Tonya Harding 12-11-2018 10:12 PM

I keep hearing about this game. How does it stack up compared to Mario Kart?

Tonya, I compare all games to the greats: Duke Nukem 3d (PC), Spy vs Spy (NES), Commander Keen (PC), Age of Empires 1 & 2 (PC), Ultima Online (PC), and some other shit.

Mario kart SNES IS GREAT PLEASE DON'T BREAK MY BONES.

SlickyTrickyDamon 12-11-2018 11:56 PM

Game is updating hmm

SlickyTrickyDamon 12-12-2018 01:43 AM

and got 15 more gold bars and 250 buck-a-roos.

So, are they going to constantly bribe us every few days? I can get behind that.

Where's my 2nd batch of gold/cash ? :|

I can't find any news on that one..

Actually know someone who worked on DN Forever into the Gearbox transition. What a fucking shit show lol. All of it.

SlickyTrickyDamon 12-12-2018 10:52 PM

No second batch. They just announced they gave it well after they gave it.

rez 12-12-2018 11:45 PM

Paid the 3 gold to go dishonored and did the 2 quests on the evil side. 100% story done now. I hope they add more story quests soon. Replaying them is meh.

rez 12-12-2018 11:48 PM

Old Man Jones 3 gold was worth it. Getting killed by the cops and paying $2 each time + the ammo used + the time to get down from max honor not so much.

Disturbed316 12-14-2018 11:16 PM

I'm working towards 100%, currently at 86% with the pretty much all the challenges to do.

SlickyTrickyDamon 12-14-2018 11:19 PM

Killing a wabbit with a knife ended the knife challenge for me. Don't have the patience.

Tom Guycott 12-15-2018 03:12 AM

So, I got a second infusion of gold, but not cash.

Also, how the hell do you get friends together instead of a rag-tag group of randos for a multiplayer hoedown?

And why the hell did my camp position randomly change? Hard to get the lay of the land when you jump from a hilltop to a random valley elsewhere.

SlickyTrickyDamon 12-15-2018 03:59 AM

Probably create an Xbox Party group or a Posse.

rez 12-15-2018 04:53 PM

Finally got to rank 14 to fish. Honestly, idling in large showdowns seems to be the most efficient way of getting xp, gold, and cash. Better than trying to hunt cougars since every cowpoke out there is fighting for 'em.

idle only in the deathmatches. If it's the team mode I don't wanna be that guy.

rez 12-15-2018 08:24 PM

3 star muskies in the lake west of Strawberry net almost 8 cash each. You can only stow one, though (online). Not bad.

rez 12-15-2018 08:53 PM

My online suggestions so far. I might keep updating this ---

1. insurance on ps4 arabian horse so you don't have to buy revivals or have to use the
nag horse if your horse dies and you don't have none on ya

2. varmint rifle for pvp. (cheap but whatever)

3. fish/bow to gain ranks in health

4. just run around/swim to get max rank 10 on stamina

5. pick mint herb to craft with big game meat (can't remember if I read that earlier in
this thread or on reddit... so credit to whomever discovered that).

6. do the missions to get to 75% story, then go visit Old Man Jones and pay him the 3
gold to get negative honor so you can do the last 2 quests to get to 100%. good
payouts. (Not worth the ammo and the $2 penalty if you die from the po po each time to get to negative manually).

having played the game, its good, probably more then just good. great graphics...........but..............its not pulling me in as a must play or to keep playing for hours. Probably the amount of time spent riding around on the horse becomes annoying. Then you get off the thing. Shoot it.....then takes even longer cuz your walking.
