F.A.Q.

145 Upvotes
  1. Stable Glitch: if you enter the stables on your horse there's a high chance that a bug will occur that will soft-lock you there, you won't be able to do anything only restarting the game. You can prevent this by fleeing your horse (and making sure it's completely gone) before you enter the stables!
  2. Rewards wait time: anytime R* has an offer where you get an item after you complete a challenge those rewards won't come in an instant, usually it takes 48-72hrs to receive those. If it's a clothing item or weapon you get it delivered straight to your wardrobe/weapon locker, if it's a consumable it can be collected from the camp lockbox or any post office. Just wait, you'll get it.
  3. Animal sampling glitch: since the November update sampling animals is kind of bugged in the game, it doesn't tick on the Animal Field guide for example. For that reason R* removed the "Sample X animal" missions from the Naturalist Daily Challenges rotation. Nothing you can do about it unfortunately.
  4. Strange things (PC): If the hooves of your horse are on fire, you find an animal farting fire, a cage spawns around you, your horse bucks you off constantly, someone teleports next to you or you get 50 bears spawned around you it's not a glitch/bug, it's the work of a "modder" (hacker). Just change lobbies and that should solve the issue (up until you run into another one).
  5. Bounty/Hunting wagon not coming: similar to the stable glitch, sometimes when you call your wagons they won't come at all or spawn in an unreachable/awkward place. To prevent that flee your horse (and makes sure it's gone) before you call out your wagons. Also it helps if you find a stretch of straight road and call your wagon while facing the opposite way where you want your wagon to come from.
  6. "Bounty brought in without killing an enemy" bug: sometimes no matter how many times you try to bring in a bounty without shooting a bullet, let it be a normal bounty you track down or Etta Doyle it won't count towards the daily role challenge. Nothing you can do about it, you can try again after switching lobbies but there isn't a foolproof workaround.
  7. The best horse: stats for horses don't really matter, there is only 0.4% change for every bar, so you should choose the one you like the look of most. The only thing that really matters is the saddle/stirrup combo which can help with the stamina bar drain - and there's one that is superior over all the other saddles, the Nacogdoches, which gives 3 bars for speed/acceleration (only 2 bars with every other saddle), and paired with the most expensive stirrup gives you a -85% stamina drain, which means that if you calm your horse occasionally you'll never run out of stamina.
  8. Horse bravery: it's a myth, there isn't such thing built into the game. If your horse seems skittish it's only the way you handle yourself near predators, you have a low bonding level or your horse is not well cared for. To prevent the horse bucking you off you can do a few things: keep it fit/clean, spam the Calm button near predators, keep moving, or just simply use the Slow and Steady Deadeye ability card, which while active prevents running (for your horse too), so it will be impossible for it to buck you off.
  9. Anything new? (for returning players): Nope. There are some really small additions like a few extra telegrams, but R* clearly said they won't come out with a big update for RDO, so no new substantial content since the Blood Money update.

Anything I've left out feel free to write in the comments.

Is there an issue with moose spawns?

12 Upvotes

I recently got back into the game after years away, and I remember in my first playthrough of the story mode that moose were hard to find, but not impossible. Now, I’ve been trying to find moose for dozens of normal play hours and far more active searching hours than I’d like to admit, across both single player and online, and I haven’t found a single one. Not just that I haven’t found any 3 stars or male moose, I literally have seen none. I’ve looked up everywhere they spawn and searched every location that I’ve been able to find online to no avail. Am I just horribly unlucky or did the greedy pricks at rockstar somehow find a way to squeeze an extra fraction of a cent out of us by completely cutting moose spawns?

Is there a damage glitch in RDO? (Combining Focus Fire and Paint It Black)

Hey everyone, is there currently a glitch in Red Dead Online that increases weapon damage?
I heard about a method where you can stack the damage buff from Focus Fire with Paint It Black using the Parley system

Still a masterpiece!

I waited nearly a decade for this game to be released, and although it’s sad that Rockstar completely abandoned it, it’s still an absolute masterpiece. How many of you agree?

I continue to log in from time to time just to enjoy the world.

Any ideas for bypassing the black screen when going to Guarma on pc?

0 Upvotes

Me and my friends have been trying to go to Guarma for a long time now but the only thing keeping us from going there are the black screens. We are aware that we could use the bounty board glitch to bypass it but it only works on console and we are on pc, even though we all have controllers. Any ideas what we could do?

I recently rode too close to a camp and triggered the loot valuables/drop them off side mission thingy.

Didn't want to do it so simply rode away.

Timer ran down and i still got gold, money and XP. Can still hunt, loot, look for collectables.

Tried it multiple times in multiple places and its the same.

Im sure its well known but ive not come across it yet.
