Red Dead Redemption Online Gameplay

Skewed and Reviewed have posted some video of their first session playing the Red Dead Redemption 2 Online Beta. You can get a look at the opening missions and scenes.

I’m having more fun with online than the campaign. I never laughed so hard at a game before.

Garethvk2735d ago

I wish you could customize the controls and skip the cut scenes easier but it is fun.

Lighter92735d ago

You can. Well, you can skip the cutscenes. Unfortunately, everyone else has to aswell.
But there's no story without the cutscenes.

generic-user-name2735d ago

Wouldn't be fair to skip a cutscene for someone who hasn't seen them yet.

Garethvk2735d ago

True. I just find myself wanting to get right into the action.

bloop2735d ago (Edited 2735d ago )

It's a bit shitty playing as a loan wolf too. Every story mission I've done so far, whoever I've been matched with has done the missions already. They just leg it straight to the objective and clear everyone out. By the time I arrive on the scene everyone's dead and looted!! They need to increase the payout on missions though. If it takes me 10 hours of grinding just to buy a hat, I'm out!! You've already made your billions R*. Time to give a little something back to the players, instead of having to bend over a table just because I want a new pair of pants for my character.

I got lost after getting the chest of treasure. Cannot open map or see points on the map and everywhere I go says I am off mission.

You think Rockstar views Red Dead 2 as a failure because it didn't sell 150m copies?

jznrpg203d ago

3 billion or so in revenue not including online stuff I’m sure they don’t

SethNW202d ago

I am pretty sure they don't. It was profitable and made them a lot of money. Not GTA5 money but far from failure. Maybe it is lower priority franchise, due to being smaller, but that is about the lowest they would put it as. Only thing they do consider failure is RDR2 Online, unlike GTA5 Online, that RDR2 Online flopped. Hence why it got less support. And when it come to profits, sales for both combined don't come close to GTA Online microtansactions. Hence why everything very quickly got canceled and GTA Online was top priority, so no GTA6 for a long time, no DLC for GTA5, despite there being 5 DLCs planned, at least I think it was 5, give or take one. But as I see it, they needed to rejuvenate interest and all, hence why GTA6 eventually is getting made. But what they are really looking forward to is refresh of Online.

ZeekQuattro202d ago

Only in terms of the online aspect of the game. They didn't support it as much as they did GTA V Online. I remember people being pissed about that.

jznrpg203d ago

I own a few GTAs but never played them. I love Red Dead though

Yui_Suzumiya197d ago (Edited 197d ago )

Boring and overrated. Red Dead Redemption is pretty good though. The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy is my personal GOAT. We need more stuff like that from TooKyo.

victorMaje203d ago

I must be one of the few who are fine with the GTA6 delay. People treat that game like it’s the 2nd coming lol.

FIELDMARSHALL_P202d ago

My daughter asked me how I felt about I shrugged and said I don't care gives me time to finish up games I already have. It's all good let them make the best game they can.

RedDevils203d ago

Wish they make another Manhunt or Bully.

gold_drake202d ago

The world they built is pretty amazing. Unfortunately, the game was mostly boring to me. I definitely had fun in some parts, but it didn't do it for me as a whole like the first one did. I loved RDR so much.

The budgets and time it takes to make games these days is out of control. Such a big risk. If a game isn't a huge hit, it is often it for a studio. Scary. I really miss the PS2 and PS3 days where studeios could make 4 games in a generation and take risks in making something new. And so many were using their own engines. Those were the days.

neutralgamer1992207d ago

Agreed. I love RDR but couldn't get into RDR2. The animations take forever and game slows you down on purpose. It won't let you have fun because R* want us to play the game they want to. I know millions love RDR2 and I even bought and own it. But just wasn't for me.

It's like comparing GTA4 to saints row 2. One game was about fun while the other was about realism and that's coming from someone who beat GTA4 many times. I much rather a game be fun to play than chase realism

YodaCracker207d ago

GTA IV’s realism is what made it so much more fun for me. I loved experimenting with the physics.

Storm23206d ago

I bought RDR2 also. Put 100+ hours into it and beat it our of respect for Rockstar and all the people saying it was the greatest game ever. RDR blew my mind but might also have been the best time in gaming for me personally. l loved that PS3 gen so much.

I am excited to see what GTA6 is like.
