You have to acquire a brush, first. It's a reward from one of the chapter 2 quests.

If you have one, and are riding, you may be moving too fast. You can only brush your horse when you are stopped or moving slowly, or if you're not riding.
Thank you I haven't progressed this far in the story and my horse is already dirty

Had the longest fucking poker game ever with Strauss, the little shit. Kept beating me to the point I bought in so many times that he had $10 (buy-in is $1). Until I FUCKING SNAGGED ALL OF THAT MONEY BACK. I never antagonized someone so quickly.

Red Dead Redemption 2 |OT2| Dutch Has A Plan

He's always got a fucking plan that one lol.

Made it to Chapter VI last night.

This game is giving me the weirdest vibe of existential dread I've ever experienced in this medium.

I'm just alluding to what's going on. I want to talk about it but don't want to venture into the spoiler thread or only talk in spoiler bubbles. Haha.

Same! I'm partway through ch6 now. Arthur is such a great character.

I can't believe I'm going to restart the game after 20 or 30 hours, but I need John, Abigail and Jack in my camp. I can't keep playing this game in a incomplete state.

Back to Colter I guess.

That seems a bit excessive when you're just missing out on little bits of dialogue. Surely better to just wait for a patch?

I think the blackjack in Rhodes is bugged as hell. I've been playing for 20 minutes and the dealer has won every hand!

Does it corrupt your other saves too ? (if you made some)

No problem with the saves so far, however my revolver's grip texture is permanently bugged and now it always looks red brown no matter what color of wood I choose. Which further strengthens my urge to restart the entire game.

Just a heads up, doing too much cosmetic customization on your guns may trigger a bug where it will keep swapping back to the default wood texture even though you clearly put a different color on it.

That seems a bit excessive when you're just missing out on little bits of dialogue. Surely better to just wait for a patch?

I am an excessive person, I do whatever it takes to get the result I want, that's just who I am I guess.

Go hunting and robbing for five or six hours of gameplay, return to camp pockets full, get immediately approached by Dutch and Grimshaw about not giving enough. Put $500 in the pot, choose a couple of upgrades, speak to three people, get immediately accosted by Dutch again to tell me that I'm spending too much time at camp and that I used to be a man of action. Thanks, Dutch. I do feel the love.

Taking your horse for a jaunt through the water will also get him clean, though it might need to be somewhat deep.

so the game just deleted one of my revolvers, and it was a good one.

during a mission an npc friend died (like I even care) and it failed
after realoading a checkpoint I had no weapon anymore.
i had to pick one up from a dead guy and of curse it's a shitty revolver and my good one is gone for good, even at the horse later I couldn't get it back.

super annoying and incredible that this went through QA.

I have had this happen twice, I now have more than enough cash so if it happened again it wouldn't be so bad, but at the time I was poor and it was frustrating.

Tbf of all the characters to disappear it's kind of disastrous it has to be John

Anyone spend ages reading these catalogues in the shops. It's like all the trademark R* snark that would be on the radio on GTA has found it's way into the little documents you read along the way. They're really funny

So gutted my horse died. I got ambushed by loads of Lemoyne Raiders and was insta killed.

It wasn't until the game reloaded and there was a saddle sat on the ground that I realised poor ole Merlin was killed too.

Hmm I see Badgers a lot in forested areas, for instance near your camp in chapter 3. The compendium probably says as much

I've only managed to find one of them (2 star, of course). I've been looking all throughout the area that has a Badger symbol on it but all I'm finding are the usual suspects of Deer, Squirrels, Turkeys and Rabbits.

Is there a time table for trains with the public coming and going at platforms? Been waiting for like 13 hours in game for a passenger one but nothing, need to rob it.

I think you might need to buy a train ticket before they start spawning. I tried to find one for AGES to shoot birds from for a sharpshooting challenge, but none spawned until I bought a ticket. Then it did a tutorial pop up about trains and robbing them, and since then I've seen several just roaming around.

So I just did a "mission" where I met this family in the woods.
Where can I find my fucking money? It's all gone...

Killed the legendary bison in a river and couldn't skin it. Waited a while and it hasn't shown up at the trapper or fence. Guess I'm screwed.

Really struggling with this game.

I've done a couple of missions after getting the first "camp" and I'm really not feeling it. It might be the controls, it might just be the old PS4 struggling to keep up.
Does it get better from here? Is there a point I should keep pushing on to get to or should I pretty much bail out now?
lol unless you have a 4k monitor you really wouldn't be noticing a difference.

I'm a few missions into chapter 3, and I dont think its improved at all. To me this game just reminds me how boring I find games that are just focused around a bunch of guys, was one mission involving a female character in chapter 2, and one so far in 3. Those missions I found far more engaging cause the conversation was more than two dudes saying how stupid they though each other were. Chapter 2 was long as hell, but I don't feel like anything meaningful happened (like a main plot), the quests are mainly filler activities used as a reason for conversation between camp members.

Personally i'm sticking with it, but only because I think its a very different game and that in itself is worth experiencing.

throwing a stick of dynamite in the fancy st denis saloon is quite something, I immediately reached lowest honor and got the extreme personality trophy, then I reloaded my save.

I denied Mary for her second quest. Felt I needed to do right by Arthur. Hope I made the right choice.

As I said, best to ignore the symbols on the map and just follow what the compendium says. It'll say something more general and natural like 'will roam forested areas'

I've seen a ton of Badgers near the camp in Chapter 3

Yeah, fuck hunting in this game.

I go to the area where the map says "this is where badgers are!"

I can look around for ten minutes in this area. Slowly, of course, becuase any faster scares everything within a 10 mile radius off.

Yet, there are no badgers here.

Actually, that's not true. There was one badger, but it was 1 star and therefore completely useless.

Just so frustrating and needlessly obtuse.

All it says for the Badger I saw was "likes Arid areas." Not exactly a lot to go on lol

By first camp you mean the one on the plains? Chapter 2?

It should click in the next couple of hours. If not, quit. The game regularly changes in terms of feel and pace for me so you never know

See my post directly above yours :)

I literally spent two hours looking for a squirrel around the symbol area, and literally turned the game off, saying 'fuck hunting'

On my next play session I realised I never used the compendium. It immediately said to look in ANY forested area.

I had a 3 star squirrel within minutes

Edit: arid areas?

That's great. Go back to the heartlands and roam around where there are more rocks and bushes. You'll find one quickly

Got invited into a farmhouse for dinner, and I knew something was up but I decided to play along because I knew it'd be fun. When I was wandering around the house I walked into the toilet and the man said "You got a brown dog scratching at the back door, partner?" :P

Anybody encountered a bug with legendary skins at all? Have a pristine legendary coyote skin and it's on my horse but I can't get it off or do anything with it.

Trapper won't buy it, it's grayed out when I go to Pearson...it's like I can't get rid of it.
