Today, we are very happy to unveil some of the Red Dead Redemption features that will await you at the Rockstar Games Social Club come May 18th.

For two years now, the Social Club (www.rockstargames.com/socialclub) has been our private club for players to track their game progress and stats, compete on leaderboards, unlock exclusive game content, and take part in official multiplayer events with live stream and chat.

Red Dead Redemption continues in that tradition and takes things to an entirely new level with a revamped website and seamless integration into the game itself. From within the in-game menus, you will be able to easily register for Social Club and automatically link it to your Xbox LIVE or PlayStation Network account. Then when accessing the Social Club website, you can complete your account and unlock 7 exclusive cheats right to your game.

At the forthcoming Red Dead Redemption area of the actual Social Club website – members will be able to access:

Social Club Challenges – We’ve stockpiled a collection of exclusive cheats that will only be accessible by Social Club members who complete a series of special challenges. The first of which, available at game launch on May 18th, will be the Pike’s Basin Challenge. To unlock this challenge, Social Club members must beat the "Justice in Pike's Basin" mission early in the game and complete the "Pike's Basin" gang hideout by helping rancher Errol Hewitt defeat a gang of ruthless cattle rustlers. Social Club members can then take on the Pike’s Basin Challenge – face off against the rustlers and:

• Kill 3 enemies in one Dead Eye burst
• Drag a gang member through the basin (by lassoing him on horseback)
• Kill all enemies while on horseback

Completion will post your best time and medals attained to a special Social Club Challenges leaderboard – and garner you the exclusive "Guns Blazing" cheat (ability to shoot bullets that could set your enemies on fire). Stay tuned for many more Social Club Challenges to be revealed at the Social Club after game release.

Rockstar Challenges – Pitch in with everyone else playing online to cumulatively accomplish a grand challenge and unlock a special reward. Look for the very first one, The Strike It Rich! Rockstar Challenge, to kick off in late May after enough people have made their mark in the world of Red Dead Redemption. Whether you earn it, win it or steal it – grab as much money as you can to reach the grand total bank cume and unlock the exclusive Posse T-Shirt for your Xbox LIVE or PSN avatar. At the Social Club, you’ll also be able to keep track of the current community progress towards this goal as well as get information on special inside tips and tricks to help get there. Stay tuned for more Rockstar Challenges to be announced.

The Blackwater Ledger – A special and dynamic Red Dead Redemption community edition of the in-game newspaper keeping community members apprised of all the latest goings on across the game world – from New Austin to Nuevo Paraiso to West Elizabeth. The newspaper will report daily news from the frontier including who’s earned the highest bounties, a business column on what products are most purchased from local merchants, and a blotter of which weapons are being used the most. Registered members will see a snapshot report of their own latest status of Honor and Fame, as well as Experience, Rank, Game Progress and more.

My Stats – There, you will be able to track your in-game progress down to the very last detail – from how you performed in each single-player mission to which weapons are working the best for you by yielding the most kills and accuracy, to extensive multiplayer stats tracking your performance in each session played online. You will also be able to compare each and every statistic against your Social Club Friends. If you’re a Social Club member and have not yet linked in your Friends from Xbox LIVE or PlayStation Network – click here for info on how to do so.

Multiplayer Leaderboards – The most robust and easy-to-use leaderboards yet. Every mode – both for Competitive and forthcoming downloadable Co-Op – tracking leaders across a variety of statistical categories. Browse global leaderboards to see what it takes to be truly elite – or see friends-only leaderboards for proper bragging rights amongst your Social Club Friends.

Achievements & Trophies – Whether you’re playing on Xbox LIVE or PSN, you’ll be able to keep track of each and every Achievement or Trophy you’ve unlocked (and when) as well as see which ones you have yet to score – and exclusive tips to help you get ‘er done. You will also be able to compare in detail against your Social Club Friends.

The 100% Checklist – Exclusively at Rockstar Social Club, completionists on a quest for 100% in Red Dead Redemption can use a detailed guide to see exactly what they’ve unlocked – and what’s remaining, along with info, tips and a map legend to help you on your way.

Official Red Dead Redemption Social Club Multiplayer Events – The highly-anticipated first official Red Dead Redemption Social Club Multiplayer Events will kick off starting the weekend after game release on Friday May 21st (for PS3 on PSN; at 4-7 PM Eastern) and Saturday May 22nd (for Xbox 360 on Xbox LIVE; at 1-4 PM Eastern). Celebrate the release of Red Dead and play with and against a slew of us Rockstars worldwide – including members of Rockstar San Diego. As with all official events, Social Club members will be able to additionally participate in the live chat at the events page and watch a live stream of all the action as it goes down. Click here for the full multiplayer calendar announced through the end of June and expect continuing official Red Dead multiplayer events through the summer and beyond…

All of this will be available starting with game release on May 18th – only one week away.
Anyone else a Social Club member? I'm liking the sound of that Guns Blazing cheat.

Here is the 3rd and final part of the RDR map and some screens. With it being later in the game, I've set it as spoilers. The auto resizer doesn't work with spoilers, so they'll be huge.
SPOILER: show


Tall Trees:






Great Plains:






Misc of the area:

RDR is supposedly getting delayed by a week for parts of Europe. Either because of Ash clouds or production issues. Sweden is the only one I've read is effected but I'm hoping R* clears it up if it's true or not and who, if anyone, is really effected.

Edit: R* are saying it's still being released all over Europe on 21st, even in Sweden. False alarm, I guess.

Are you in the UK? I've always thought you were in New Zealand. I'm probably confusing you with someone else.

Live radio show with guys from RDR, taking questions:

Edit: it's off the air now. I'll put up the recording whenever it's put up.

What do they mean 15-20 minutes from one side to the other? The entire map, or just one section/county/territory?

The whole map. That's using the horse trails though which I'd imagine would be designed to make crossing the map quick and easy. I'd think time would depend on how fast your horse was, too. The guy was probably just estimating.
Even if it is only 20 minutes, the fun comes from leaving the beaten path and find the longer, rougher route with stuff going on, right?

It's still better than GTA IV. You could drive from the airport to the far west side of the map in about 2 minutes.

Haha there was a rumour going round I was in Florida, but not NZ, couldn't handle the censorship they have over there.

Not being able to drive cars is a good thing, would make horses pretty redundant if there was a choice.

They probably don't even know about it. They voted Fable II their game of the year or something once because it was friendly towards animals. Even though you could blast rabbits and crows to bits with a shotgun.

People are animals and they died in droves in Fable II, especially if I was in one of those moods.

Yeah but we're not cute and/or fluffy so PETA don't care.

The game is in store stockrooms now so it's too late for PETA to have it's way. They do have a little influence, though. They managed to get Pitbulls taken out of Mafia II. Originally, the idea was for pitbulls to be used as a kind of weapon.

I remember that. That's not a game I'm interested in but I hated that some non-gaming self-righteous group got their way - and then not even support the game with ads or anything after the publisher appeased them. That's fuckshit as we call it where I'm from, and I have very little patience with how PETA's been prancing around.

It annoys me a little. Don't they fall under "extremists" by definition through some of their "stunts"? I don't know if it was PETA or a similar group but one group wanted a lab to stop using animal testing a few years ago. They didn't get their way so they dug up the top lab guys dead grandfather and wouldn't return the corpse until they got their way. I think the same group did other extreme things to the lab and it's employees but can't remember them.

That's extremism, right?

Why did they object to a pitbull in Mafia II and not object against the entire series of hunting games that come out every year?

Edit: here is the story I was talking about: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/s...re/4762481.stm

I don't think that's PETA. They're extremely annoying but they rarely get criminal.

I have no idea why hunting games (and hunting in general) doesn't warrant their attention. They just want the media attention.

PETA doesn't get criminal. They just fund criminal activities through knowingly sponsoring third parties up to and including domestic terrorism. Big difference.

Also, hunting games and hunting in general has drawn their attention. I mean, I'm not a big fan of PETA (In part because of such aforementioned acts), but it's retarded to make a false double standard in order to bash them.

Watched an hour or so of streaming shit last night. Game looks great, even though the stream was a shitty resolution. I mean, you had to put up with /b/tards foaming at the mouth with racism, but the game itself gave a strong impression.

Some guy just ruined the story for me!!!

He made a topic over at the IGN boards with the title "Gamespot review 10/10!". IGN mods had made it clear that unmarked spoilers are an instant ban, so I clicked it thinking it was safe but the guy had typed up the ending.

I tried to dismiss it thinking "yeah, I doubt it." but one of the mods deleted it, banned him and made another thread telling everyone that the guy responsible was banned. Going by what the mod said, I guess the guy was telling the truth.

I'm hoping it wasn't the ending and just a specific part of the story. If it was the ending, I'll not feel so gutted if they do a GTA IV style episode DLC. That would mean I've just had "part 1" spoiled and any future episodes can be played unspoiled.

Still, RDRs story has been blown for me. I was really looking forward to the game and the story as you could tell by the constant updating of this thread.

LOL. Seriously, I feel bad for you, but how hard is it to simply not go into a topic like that? Gamespot has their own site and if you're really interested, why not, you know, go there?

I thought it would be safe because it didn't say "spoilers" in the title. It didn't crossed my mind that it would be a trick.
I was using the Wii at the time because I thought this PC was being used and GS doesn't like loading on the Wii so it was quicker just to click the topic title for the notes.

Speaking of reviews, IGN scored the game 9.8.

Watched an hour or so of streaming shit last night. Game looks great, even though the stream was a shitty resolution. I mean, you had to put up with /b/tards foaming at the mouth with racism, but the game itself gave a strong impression.
I actually didn't know that, I just figured they were kind of dickish. Some interesting facts:
