mrags Posted November 28, 2018 Posted November 28, 2018 I’m tempted to not play online at all until I finish the story mode. 1
/dev/null Posted November 28, 2018 Posted November 28, 2018 Curious what everyone has in their stables, types and if you gave them a name. I have three rank four horses at the moment Buell: Probably the most balanced horse I've encountered. Decent health, stamina, speed, and acceleration. I don't think Buell ever ran into a tree or tripped over a boulder, and doesn't seem to get as spooked by nearby predators. And then there's his back story which makes him a keeper Tiger: Tiger Striped Mustang. A rare wild mustang, nowhere near as good stats as the White Arabian but still a very good horse. Ran into her while hunting the legendary pronghorn. Tiger's had a few trips but I don't think she's run smack into a tree Slumlord: Rose Grey Arabian. The best statistical horse in the game. The White Arabian is the best wild horse in the game but the Rose Grey has better speed and acceleration (7/7 vs 6/6). The Arabians (Black, White, and Rose Grey) all have a reputation for running into trees and tripping over stuff, which I can confirm . There are two ways to get the Rose Grey, either buy it in Blackwater ($1,000ish) or steal one . There are a few spawn points in towns where the horse breeds are random, usually the low end Kentucky Saddlers or Morgans. But every once in a while they'll spawn a higher end breed. So over the weekend I'm riding past one of these spots, check out the horses, and score! I didn't even have to break him like a wild horse and no witnesses so no bounty either. The particular spot was in the northern Saint Denis outskirts/slums, hence the name Slumlord I haven't spent much time in the Grizzlies yet, but when I do I'll try to track down the White Arabian to fill my stable
shrader Posted November 28, 2018 Posted November 28, 2018 I’m just pissed that they don’t allow enough characters for the horse names. I had to leave mine at “Sarah Jessica P”. 4 1

Supposed to be the best and fastest. No problems with her to this point.

And Pay-To-Win is not as much fun as breaking a wild horse (like my Tiger Mustang), stealing a horse (Slumlord) or completion of a mission (Buell)

I have yet to see any horse with stats as good as mine

I have yet to see any horse with stats as good as mine I can't find the stats on the pre-order horse in this chart: https://rankedboost.com/red-dead-redemption-2/horse-saddle/ But the following video looks like they about 4 health, 4 stamina, 7 speed, and 5 acceleration. (7/7/10/8 at level 4). Very nice stats but you can find similar or better in game The horse I'm riding now is base 7/7/6/6. At level 4 it's 10/10/9/9. And there's a Stranger mission outside Rhodes where a woman on a horse challenges you to a race. If you win the race legitimately (no shortcuts or murder) your horse gets +1 speed A 10/10/10/9 horse is awesome except when the thing keeps running into trees and boulders Nothing like exploring the Southwest part of the map and your horse trips over a boulder sending you flying over the edge of a canyon

Im holding off on RDO until the bugs are worked out. But from what I've read it starts on a part of the map you haven't traveled to yet, references a main story line you haven't experienced yet, and ends in Blackwater.
Rockpile233 Posted November 29, 2018 Posted November 29, 2018 Would it have blew the budget to have more than one animation after winning a poker hand? Insignificant observation aside, I’ve spent so much time wandering/hunting that I’m only in chapter 3. I’m definitely holding off with online play until I get my fill of the story mode.

I'm stll stuck in Chapter 2 where you have to get Dutch out of Valentiine. Having trouble with the shootout. I too think I'll wait a while to try online mode.
mrags Posted November 30, 2018 Posted November 30, 2018 I crumbled and created an online char. Already hate what he looks like. Can’t wait to change that. Still gonna play the story mode but wanted to get moving
Buffalo716 Posted November 30, 2018 Posted November 30, 2018 Played 1 online match of make it count which is the take royale mode... it was throwing knives and butcher knives only... last one standing is winner I got down to the final 2... turn around and the guy is running right at me knife in hand... he tackles me,,, i punch him off me before he stabs me in the chest we square off in a old fashion knife fight... i dodge him and stab him in the neck! Winner winner!
BillsFan4 Posted January 12, 2019 Posted January 12, 2019 Finally installed my copy (85 GB. Holy ****!). I am in chapter 2. There was definitely a bit of a learning curve at first. They’ve added a lot of new things since RDR1. So far I’m loving it.

Is there any benefits of having a real good horse as opposed to a medium horse?
