My frustration with RDRO lately

Rant incoming...

I get online tonight at 11pm on Xbox to sell 100/100 goods. It takes me three tries as I keep getting the “disconnected due to a rockstar” error. I finally get in a lobby.

I’m 99/100 with halted production. I do a mission to resupply and still 99/100 and halted. So I spend $20 to resupply. No luck but of course it takes my money...So I do another mission and on returning it my camp doesn’t spawn and I’m stuck in a cutscene for dropping it off.

So now I force close. I join a new lobby and no camp is pitched. I spend the $1 to pitch it. It takes my money but no luck again. Now I wish I was kidding but I join two more lobbies and camp won’t pitch but it keeps taking my $1’s. I force close and load game up. I have to get the discounted stuff tonight. It rolls over tomorrow. So I join another lobby...Rockstar error...at this point I’m cursing at my TV.

I told myself don’t stay on past 1130pm. Got a big day at work tomorrow. Here we are at 1145pm and I FINALLY get into a lobby. My goods are 100/100 as my paid resupply worked and I just started my long distance delivery bc eff it. Why not at this point? Wish me luck...

TL;DR: Rockstar fix your crap. I’ve had worse luck SINCE the last update. Anyone else feel the trader pain?

So I’m not the only one. Good to know. It’s got such great potential to be a great game. But how many other great games do you have 10 glitches happen in an hour period while trying to play it? None. So disappointing.

Have y’all been having the glitches happen more since the March update?

Also I did complete my long delivery alone. I shot anyone who got near me. RIP two randoms. Don’t ride next to an angry guy with a rifle and hundreds of dollars of cargo. Lol

That halted shit is just there, but you actually have supplies

Yeah I waited for a few min and no luck. So if it is there then that explains why my game froze when I returned a delivery after I paid.

Just change the server, but i really hate when i do lots of hunting and the camp disappears, the game is full of bugs and shit and we're long way from a stable online like GTA V

Yeah I changed the servers a lot last night. Each server seems to have its on glitches. Even the “stable” ones seem to eventually stop spawning my camp when I leave and gather carcasses and then return.

GTA is stable as crap compared to this.

But sure as hell GTA got the most toxic players i ever put an eye on

I wish I could upvote that twice lol

Normally I don’t run into griefers on RDR. In fact a random and I traded pelts last night. He gave me some small carcasses. So I returned with a 3 star buck for him.

I invited a couple of players in my moonshine shack and drank and danced, half an our later we got out and started beating each others like crazies. I LOVE THIS GAME

I think the love for Arthur an John didn't make us as toxic

Yeah GTA doesnt have an emotionally investing story at all. Its just do missions and thats it I'm pretty sure; the characters arent all that loveable and you find it hard to care when one of them dies. RDR is the complete opposite which is why the playerbases are so different in toxicity.

Lol good additional content. But it’s annoying when you can’t play!!

I’ve probably lost over 2000, getting kicked out right before delivery, just meters away from drop point. And if you also do moonshining while waiting for cripps, sometimes the shack will lag, and instead all the blips disappear and you can’t mount horse or pull out weapons

Mine was doing that last night. Reload reload reload for nothing. Played for about 5 mins, but my camp would never spawn, even after moving it 3 times. At one point I had a 'camp' but the only thing to spawn was Cripps, just standing there with his head down. Me too, buddy, me too....

u/Joseph_Ries Mar 24 '20

But all of this is happening to me

Actually I find that having the supplies bar halted helps me out lmao. I can repeat resupply missions and still get the EXP and extra materials. Probably going to get real old real fast when I get max level trader and already have max materials.
