Red Dead Online Update Coming September 10 Introducing Frontier Pursuits

You need to read properly is what you need to do.
Short answer though if you don't feel like actually reading:
You need 15 gold to unlock a role. You can just play to get the gold or buy it if you're feeling lazy.
I wonder why it looks so bad and why they haven't addressed it.
I think it looks pretty amazing on the Pro. It's still one of the best looking games on it IMHO.
Nope. You could get fifteen gold playing in three to five days doing the daily challenges. Less, if you got a streak going. Also, Playstation owners get one for free, Twitch Prime users get another, and the third can be grinded out collecting playing cards in GTA Online.
At the moment if you're on a streak you can earn 10 gold bars per day doing just the daily challenges. For this current double payout period you could've earned 210 gold bars doing nothing but the daily challenges each day.
are you guys going to update one profession at a time or are you going to unlock all 3 and upgrade each one taking turns?
My guess but sometimes ps4 pro seems a struggle a bit in terms of fps in some area. Probably a more precise CBR would cost too much for the fps performance. Still I'd preferred 1800cbr than this strange hybrid between half of 2160p and 2160cbr.
how much is 15 gold bars in terms of grind? No much at all? A modicum of grind? An exaggerated amount?
Do you think that's how people in real
Not much at all. Just do as many daily challenges you can do on consecutive days, and play PvP or do stranger missions. Unless it's been changed since like May, finishing the stranger mission with only say 30 seconds to a minute left increases your earnings.
I got around 35 gold by playing for like two hours a night for a week or so.
The best way to make gold is by doing the daily challenges. There are seven of those available each day. For example, here were today's:
To begin with, you get 0.2 gold per challenge, and a bonus of 0.6 gold (3 times the base amount) if you do all 7, for a grand total of 2 gold.
But if you complete at least one challenge every day, you get a streak going. After a week the base amount increases. After two weeks it increases again, and after three, and after four weeks the base amount becomes 0.5 gold (plus you get a free treasure map), meaning you make 5 gold per day for doing all of the daily objectives.
For the last 3 weeks the daily challenges have been paying double (i.e. 10 gold bars per day for doing all challenges if you were on that max streak), meaning that if you'd done all of the daily objectives for the past 3 weeks you would've made 210 gold bars.
Also, apparently if you finish the complete Outlaw Pass without buying in, you'll get all the paid rewards for completion minus the 35 gold bars.
finally came back to RDR after only playing about 10 hrs or so a year ago. But goddamn, they really need to redo the controls for this game. Finally realizing why the game felt so much like a chore to play.
You walk too slow, and run to fast in tighter areas. There isn't a decent middle ground, as far as I am aware. But you also cant run or sprint without taking your thumb off the right stick. There is an alternate control option that has that, but it also totally changes all the other controls. Looting items is also a bit of a chore and tedious. After playing and completing Days Gone recently, I really wish it just controlled like that. Intuitive, quick, and looting is very streamlined. Aiming is great and responsive, without needing crazy lock on. Everything else is so great about RD2, could make it really amazing with better controls.
Wonder what these control updates actually change or improve.

You just know rockstar won't have ported these new controls over to the single player and it will be multi only.
Nope. Certain items are exclusive behind the Outlaw Pass. You do not get all the paid rewards by just doing the Rawson club.
Grey items are for everyone (Wheeler, Rawson and Co. Club members)
Gold /Yellow items are for Outlaw Pass Owners only.
Outlaw Pass Owners can get the following Items etc.:
The 15 gold per job thing is going to be a bitch if you're jumping back on for the first time since 2018... or have never played RDO.
but if you have been playing and doing the daily challenges it's a small price to pay. for new players, in addition to the daily challenges (the best way to get gold quickly), you get some gold for completing the main story missions, you can find gold by collecting treasures via treasure maps you find periodically, and for completing the stranger missions.

Every one of their games is SHIT to control. I won't be buying anymore of them that's for sure
I hope you're right. Rockstar seem to abandon single player these days once multi launches....
That would be my guess. I don't think they have any motivation to retune and retest the whole single player mode around new controls.
Honestly tho.
This game, needs to be look at like witch-craft. It's absolutely astonishing the level of detail they achieve, the amount of simulations and unique npcs there are and it all runs really well. It makes absolutely no sense and honestly ruins everyone else in the industry ...
I want this bird sim! Also, I hate that you posted that video and make me realize Rockstar wont ever support this shit because it's not multiplayer. It's all I want... imagine if we got this MP support in SP. Sigh.

I'm holding out the slightest bit of hope. Only way I can see myself being about to complete the story.
And the inevitable PS5/Xbox-358 Remasters...
But you never know, hopefully the control improvements will be for SP too.
If they were able to put first fucking person into the re-release of GTAV, I think the very least they could do is provide these control tweaks as an option for the inevitable PS5/Scarlett/PC re-release of RDR2.
It wouldn't unbalance the game any more than first person tbh

Are the improved controls multi-player only? Could you check?
Yeah I think its multiplayer only. I went through all the settings on campaign and nothing has changed :(
Didn't turn on online cause I never made a profile for it.
I would probably come back and finish it.
But alas, I expected this.
I'm at work right now and would love some impressions of the new controls when someone gets a chance.
Actually I'm not so sure anymore, cause as I mentioned I haven't played in months. And right now while through combat, running on foot is definitely not a fucking slog anymore lol I can turn around a lot faster. Its definitely smooth to my eyes.
That's the only noticeable change I see so far.
Play Red Dead Online each week for even more new activities such as Legendary Bounties to pick up from Bounty Boards – each with their own sordid stories – and weekly maps with special collectible sets for Madam Nazar, plus all new bonuses, gifts and incentives coming in the weeks ahead.
The control improvements also apply to single player.
PATCH NOTES:
Big whopper of an update! Good luck on the frontier to all the cowboys and cowgals!

Yes it's still active and sadly yes there are still disconnects.
Doesn't seem to include snappier animations like the online but at least I'll take this
Online is super active even before this big summer update, but my friend irl still gets loads of disconnection problems. He gets DC'ed often. :(
Me on the other hand only like 2% of the time! :P
ALSO The camp dog..seems it is just a fixed dog you can buy reading the patch notes.. I wanted like a freaking POODLE! I wanted to choose me dog..oh well. Can't have everything lol.
