Sadly I'm cutting out the Naturalist part of the video since Rockstar copyrighted it. And I don't want my entire video getting copyrighted for a 30 second clip. So if you notice a weird gap between Rockstar not fixing bugs and the bounty hunter update thats why. To sum up that part though Rockstar didn't properly update the game for 7 months then randomly added the Naturalist role as an update. Which most players including myself found dissapointing. Hopefully you guys can understand why I'm deciding to remove it and most importantly can still enjoy the video without it
They haven’t bothered in two years now to fix the moonshiner roles bootleg missions from being stuck on kill remaining enemies… you can literally sit there all day. Then leave in five seconds you failed. I’ve only been able to complete like one or two… so I can’t get any bonuses for doing them.
I can't think of a game that pissed me off more than RDO because every moment you played it, you knew just how awesome it COULD be but also knew it NEVER would be.
Bro I'm sitting here looking thru comments and you took the words right out of my mouth. I'm sitting here mad as shit just thinking the lack of old west games. RDR2 releases and its a masterpiece. With all the content in the story mode, expectations are high from the jump, But when it launched in a beta I knew it was gonna be trouble. I didnt play it till sometime in the pandemic. It was a load of fun with my buddies, but after completing all the legendary bounties and buying mostly everything in the store, I didnt feel the need to play it again. But just thinking of if they just added actual content to the game and didnt stop, I probably would never stop playing it.
All the fanbase really wanted were train robberies, bank robberies, and properties (like ranches)... Rockstar Games just remained completely clueless about all of it. 😑😔
Back then I was so hoping we would've atleast gotten properties before they abandoned the game but no that didnt happen unfortunately. I also wish we had bank and train heists but instead we got some half-assed shit. Considering how much banks there are and how there locked. The 3 jewel robberies we got shouldve had a similar overlay to GTA5 heists with planning/prepping all that stuff, much better pays, more AI. Perhaps with even a collector stand of the 3 jewels in your moonshiner shack. Would've been much cooler less dissapointing.
Well that would actually require *effort and thought* to be put into a new thing while Rockstar can pump 2 updates/year into GTAO which they did for almost a decade and get the money that way. It's sad how the success of GTAO morphed Rockstar into what it is today...
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT GTA ONLINE IS ALSO SHIT LOL YOU SPEND MORE MONEY THEN MAKE FOR ONE... AND ON TOP OF THAT GTA ONLINE ECONOMY IS HORRIBLE.... 1MILL DOLLARS IN GTA ONLINE IS LIKE 1K$ HAHAHAHA
@@geraltdelautreriv I agree but thats mostly small details and story exc. Hes fully talking about red dead online about how it would be if they made many more updates such as robberies/heists items clothing properties missions and things such as that.
And the sad part is; as soon as GTA6 releases, everyone is gonna jump ship and forgive Rockstar for everything. It's exactly what Rockstar wants and it's exactly what they know's gonna happened. Rockstar gets away with everything and it sucks.
Pretty much like Riot games, remember all the stuff about harrasing females? Forgoten, while Blizzard still is thought with that, Riot released good content, Blizzard didn't. Sadly that will probably happend, it just makes me hate gta6 without it even being released
I'm never buying another rockstar game after rdr2. Unless they really stepped it up with rdr3 in 10 years lol. GTA 6 is just going to be another cash grab like the rest of rockstars online games.
@@prezmil4282 gta 6 is on development, pretty much confirmed by them, they LETTER, that they sent to red dead online fans is "We are working on GTA 6, so no resources for rdo lol" 3 seconds later they release 2 updates for gta Online, trully a genius company
I wouldn't be so sure about it. Yes, they will make lots of cash in the beginning...but i believe it will not play out like the would like it. Games like GTA5 and RDR2 are incredible expensive to make, so satisfying the consumer base means making the next installment bigger, better, fancier and specs-hungry. Most players will only afford next-gen consoles so much "better" is not to be expected. Players will soon realise how "just another installment" it will be and drop it even faster as soon as DLCs begin to dwindle. And if than something happens like the modder situation in GTAO, GTA6 will simply fade.
The biggest problem with RDO is that it was never "at it's prime" or has "peaked". During it's entire lifespan it was always "getting there" with rockstar not knowing how to handle it. Even after all the updates the game was still mostly empty. Where are the properties and heists? GTAO was only really complete after the heist update. Which took them years. Rockstar doesn't know how to handle any online mode.
The sad thing is even if it did get the GTAO treatment, it still would have missed its full potential. As fun as GTAO is, the game limits you in many ways for what's supposed to be a crime simulator.
All they needed to do is add a couple of farmhouses etc. add Heists and make stuff like wagons and carriages purchasable so that players can use them. That's all...
My god, I played this with my father and his online friends for hundreds of hours, we had a posse called the Regulators, we Bounty Hunted and helped people out for the most part, most importantly we all wore the same badass outfit… rest in peace Dad…
I remember falling in love with rdr1 and thinking it couldn’t be bested. Then undead nightmare came out and shattered my world. A dlc that was more fun than a AAA game. I do not understand why it wasn’t done for the sequel. Painfully sad. R* is losing its luster
Because they make more on gtao, so they didn't bother with any single player dlc for gta 5 or rdr2, when rdo didnt make enough money they killed it and when gta6 comes out they'll kill either gtao or the gtao2 or whatever they call gta6 online depending on which makes less money. They don't care about delivering a good experience they care about milking as much money out of wage slaves as possible.
I played Red Dead Online since the beta and it is quite sad to see the game where it is now. All the memories I made with friends just grinding the game. We would do bounties, moonshine wagons, and trader wagons. Even though Red Dead Online was a bad game; it left good memories on a lot of folk.
@@benjamindavis6535 forreal I bet half these people that say it's bad, probably sucked at the game, if you were always winning the game it wouldn't get boring
Same, i still often play with friends just to have fun but nothing can describe the disappointment the blood money update brought, we grinded for months expecting to have lots to buy and enjoy, instead we were greeted with sloppy missions and nothing to buy
For me, the biggest problem is not finishing what was started, online has a lot of features that should have been put in story mode. Small stuff like removing the secondary holsters, but looking back the story mode wasn’t even done yet, there should’ve been an update, let us go back to Guarma, put in deleted content. Then put in the good things from Online. I didn’t play online much, but when I did, I couldn’t have fun because you couldn’t achieve anything. I only played the game because; “Wow! Full fledged gun spinning? That’s awesome!” Then I got it and I never played again because I couldn’t even do it as Arthur so who cares.
I never really thought about that but ur right. I think bridging that gap between the campaign and online has always been a major problem with the game. And both the campaign and online were both at fault in that regard
Its not even asking them to make new content. Imagine how cool it would be if they implemented stuff like ducking on horseback, picking plants while mounted, faster walking speed to story mode.
I got RDR2 in October 2022 from the steam sale and I am so sad that I missed out on the better era of RDO. It's so fun to play with my friends but after a while it's so easy to lose interest because of how lackluster the missions are compared to the main story. Also, it's difficult for a casual gamer to play solo because of how many hackers there are. I really wish Rockstar didn't abandon the game :(
Making progress in this game at this point is nearly impossible. Everyone is either hacking or blowing your head off while you can't even fire back. Depressing really
rdr2o was so incredible at its peak i remember hopping on with my friends and being so excited for the new content drops, but now i have everything in the game with nothing new to do
You know there are other videogames out there, right? I mean.... you're crying that a game that came out 5 years ago has run out of content for you......
some of you are really reaching. incredible? no. knock it off. it was fun sure, but not incredible. gta online before allthe sharkcards and overpowered vehicles, now that was incredible. public challenges, fighting in between, doing missions/heists or just chillin. now that was an incredible time. cod4/mw2/bo1, now that was an incredible time. gta iv online now that was an incredible time. gta 5 post sharkcards/overpowered vehicles is just trash and this includes rdr online.
RDO was the one game that truly could of been my ultimate game to play, but Rockstar completely killed it. It's really bizzare how they spent so much time and money on making the game only to turn around and ditch it after
Well said bud. Unfortunately this is the day and age we're in. These corporations don't care about the gaming community just lining their pockets by pushing micro transactions down our throats.
Seeing this game from start to end really hits hard, out of all my friends I was the only one who kept faith 😂 Playing it now just feels like a “ghost town”. Disappoints me R* abandoned the game after the naturalist update and just gave us weekly discounts and the terrible rewards like capitale 💀
I first started playing rdr2 maybe 7 or 6 months ago and I absolutely loved the story. When I first got into rdo soon after I struggled so much to the point where I just decided to drop 5 or 10 dollars for some gold bars so I could get a bounty license and some drip. I started having fun just doing bounties so I could get more money for clothes and guns but the world felt so empty and underdeveloped compared to how it is in the story. Most towns were filled with griefers and my game would crash a lot, and I play on a ps5. I think I’m around level 40 now but I haven’t played in a couple months because I was tired of grinding trader. I really wanted to get a bounty wagon and some more gun tricks but I guess I have to get the bs advanced bounty license or whatever it is
The prestigious bounty hunter licence is not required for the bounty wagon. It unlocks for purchase at level 10 of the regular bounty hunter role. This part of the monetization seems to be pretty similar between RDO and GTAO. Most content has has steep paywalls that require a lot of grinding through the low payout content available to new players, tempting them to drop real money in order to "get started".
All of which is insanely paywall blocked. How are you going to tell me my character, an ex-Union cavalry officer nearing the age of 60, has to pay MILLIONS (relatively) of dollars in gold to become a bounty hunter just to learn how to spin his gun? Like, what is that?
I was ALWAYS hoping they'd introduce cryptids to the game around Halloween...Can you imagine riding your horse through the wilderness at night and all of a sudden a huge Wendigo starts chasing you through the forest! Or you're able to hunt a Yeti in the high snowy mountains, discover there's a Werewolf lurking around the Wapiti Reservation, or investigate mysterious killings in Tumbleweed to find out it's a Chupacabra! The things they could do with that would be endless!
For real man. During Christmas they could have even had a flying sleigh with reindeer and what not. They just did nothing with the game which is sad af cause if you put it in the hands of a team of creative people the possibilities would be endless.
I remember having no animals spawning even with the frontier pursuits. It took me several months just to reach max rank 20 in trader because of no animal spawn. I haven’t touched online since November 2021 even then I was hardly playing it before that.
I’m still enjoying my time in red dead, I try not to get to upset about the lack of content and ruin it for myself so instead I turn the hud off and just immerse myself in the world with no real end game goal, just running my businesses and existing in the world, cause it will be a long time before we get another world as beautiful as this. Wish rockstar wouldn’t have left this game behind
Same, I've been playing RDO for about a year now, I played a little every day for a while there to get the Daily Challenge gold bonus. I took a break to play another game, but I'm back into it now. I love loading up the game, checking the Daily Challenges, just riding around hunting and collecting and seeing the beautiful world. I have a lot of pressures and stresses in my real-world life, I don't need to be overly ambitious and big-goal-focused in my game life. Just relaxing in a beautiful world is enough for me to have a good time. However, I still see so many gaps, where I could enjoy it more. I would love to be able to sell horses, I would love to have a bit of property, I would honestly love to be able to have a second character without having to delete my first. I'd love more NPCs in the world, to make it more vibrant. There are also the dumb glitches that make it feel a little unloved and neglected. But overall, the game is so beautiful and relaxing and meets a need for me.
I played from day one and at the beginning there was basically nothing to do and the pay outs were horrendous. It really started gaining momentum with Frontier Pursuits and Moonshiners. They are both great updates and they added cool stuff like being able to play with the band in your bar. It seems after the moonshiners dlc they decided to stop supporting it. Weird because that’s when the game was gaining momentum.
I agree with most of what you said but I still enjoy playing any chance I get. If I can lose myself for a couple hours and forget about what’s going on in the world today it’s worth it to me. I’ll play till they shut it down.
The no animal spawn bug is one that started very early on for a lot of people including myself... it was the main reason I stopped playing in the first place. I came back when roles were added, but again with no animal spawning, the trader role was painful and I stopped playing and never came back that time around.
I hate Battle Royale, not just as a game style but for all the damage it did to perfectly good games as devs jumped on that bandwagon and made everything have a Battle Royale game. N1Z1 single/co-op got completely abandoned in favor of BR.
So sad best game I ever played. If Rockstar don't want it anymore , they simply sell it to some other company who needs it and who can handle its legacy well. I will die for Rdr3 or extensions that tell story about Charles, Sadie and all forgotten Characters so much potential in this game.
@@nemzi8969 How I think of where Jacks story ends off is kind of like Johns in RDR1 but more extreme. Time has moved on, he is no longer an outlaw, but a fugitive. Difference being that John liked that kind of life, Jack was more like a scholar, but dragged into it by betrayal/revenge. Will be interesting to see what they do with RDR3, though I think going further back would probably be cooler for the gameplay. Make it at the peak of gunslingers, let you have a little gang, let you choose who to bring on missions and where to rob etc. Would be hard to make the story as cool as the first 2, but I also didn't think they could improve on RDR and they 10000x it with RDR2 I can hope.
I've only started playing RDO because my cousin wanted someone to play with. Also I've gotten every single story achievement and all that's left are online ones... It was utter disappointment. I ran into bugs the very first day I started playing. One of the most infuriating bugs was the stable glitch. For some players going into the stables at all can softlock your game. You have to restart completely. I tried call to Arms. Incredible amount of bugs. Either the enemies would stop spawning all together, or only 2 at a time on my teamate every 15s. Only one that seemed to work for me was Fort Mercer. I don't mind the gameplay. It's just the bugs that kill me. And I've only explored a handful of the game too. Imagine all the bugs I haven't had simply because I haven't explored. For a 5 year old game, you'd think important bugs would be fixed. Guess not. edit: new bugs found. There's a bug with the wilderness camp where you'll get stuck in an infinite loading screen when using sometimes. There's a bug with the legendary animal missions in naturalist where you are spawned in and can hear people, ambience, etc. but an infinite loading screen is overlaying that. I had to pull up the menu and navigate it blindy to online and rejoin a different session... There's a bug when selling and delivering goods where the rest of the raiders won't spawn...
They gave up, if anything they just added new bugs on top of the old ones, never took time to correct them or even acknowledge they exist. I played for a few hours earlier, I stopped playing years ago, and I couldn't believe the moonshine bug is still there, it's game breaking but they could not care less...
@@CaleebTalib dude speaking of, I got into a shootout in my first hour with like 2 different groups of people in Saint Denis lol I couldn't fight for the life of me but my only other teammate kept me as alive as he could😂 edit: really appreciate that guy still, i had to leave soon after but he carried me through some stuff and added me to his posse so that was sweet
It just feels like theres nothing to do... I don't like getting griefed by cheaters, and all there is to do as a solo player is try to chip away at this endless grind. Meanwhile you get paid money you'd expect to see in the 1800s, while guns cost as much as they cost in the 2000s. Arthur can sell looted items for 10× the price you can in online. Arthur can actually loot more than $0.02 off of an enemy, etc
I used to joke with my friends that I was getting on rdo "for an honest living" It has so much potential, all I wanted was to get my own spot not just a camp. And a continuation of the online story
i miss the game so much. i've been attempting to play it every couple weeks since they announced they were pretty much abandoning the game, and it has been impossible. either a game-breaking bug (like the stable bug, my horse being invisible, NPCs being invisible, etc.) happens less than 5 minutes into gameplay, a shit-ton of glitches occur, both happen at once, or on the rare occasion i can actually play the game for more than 30 minutes until i get bored. it's so saddening to see a game with such great prospect just go down the drain because of sheer laziness.
thanks. i only played this for a couple weeks but i put a ton of hours into the first and second single player campaigns including UN. This game will always have a special place in my heart.
Yeah its pretty different to the campaign lol. One tip that I didn't know when I started is when you press left on the d-pad it takes you to your player menu which can be very handy. I didn't figure that out for ages 😅
Lol I started playing online about a month ago. Do the lake Isabella glitch at least once to make everything easier in the start. Starting with 90 good bars and 8K for free makes it less stressful for me.
Also kind of poetically matches the theme of the story too. The ending of the wild west and the birth of the modern world. From peaceful nature with outlaws & heroes sprinkled throughout. To big bright steel cities teeming with psychopaths lol.
People make fun of rdo for the same growing pains gta online went through, and still has, like the overpriced items and the small amount of money you made from heists when they were added.
What is sad is that Cockstar could have had 2 successful online games if they treated RDO anywhere as good as they treat GTAO. A company like them with 4000 developers could have assigned maybe 300 to 500 to work solely on RDO. That final statement Cockstar puts out really says it all. They never intended long term support for RDO and because of how they have treated the game and also their customers I will never buy anything from Cockstar in the future. I have lost complete trust in that company
The sad thing about Rockstar is, with RDR2 the have a really beautiful pearl in their portfolio and they could have made it one of the prettiest games ever (single & Multiplayer) but when greed rule your life, yeah, dead game.
I still play online, with my friends who occasionally join. I love the aesthetics of the game ❤ hate pvp, just love riding around and hanging out in the game :) still truly love all the horses my main fav is the big shire horse that is black with white spots and white mane n tail! His name is Hephaestus.
That's funny. I got the special edition black horse, gave him a cropped white mane and braided white tail. Named him Spartan. And then my giant Roan, Lannister. I wish I had friends to play this game with. I wish rockstar was better than this.
Pretty good video man hope it gets more views I joined rdo like a month after it’s last update so I missed out on a lot of hype and excitement and got a dead game
Thanks man. Its sad that people like yourself will never experience this game at its best. Especially if you still enjoy the game in its present state.
It's sad that they abandoned this game. i started playing again recently because i was curious if they changed anything. met a couple of really nice people to play with, been playing it every day and still having a lot of fun ( we do make game modes ourself in game)
I was under the assumption that Online is not even working anymore. I guess new games are released so unfinished, and the attention spans are so short among players, that a game needs constant updates, new content and maintenance to maintain a playerbase.
All the griefers left? Maybe I'll fire it up just to enjoy the world one last time. The only positive to RDO being abandoned is the griefers went back to GTA to harass people there I guess.
On a brighter note this game does really give you that felling like "Our time has passed" despite i just casually join the game back in December two years ago.
I loved this game so much there really is nothing else like it but at a certain point even with friends playing there was nothing left to do. At the end I would get on to do dailys and just patrol my camp for about 30 minutes before quitting cause I just love the atmosphere but that could only keep me for so long. RIP to a fun time for sure
Dope video. It's also worth mentioning the current state of the game. 90% of the player base are hackers. The last of the loyal fans can't even enjoy the game when everyone in matchmaking has God mode on.
It’s a real shame because I’ve been playing red dead online more than ever recently. So much to do. But I can see the roles slowly maxing out and the money becoming more useless and eventually I know there will be nothing left to be on for… if only they just did a fraction of the gtaO dlcs
Man I miss playing RDO with this dude i had met. We would both just be running around shooting up towns and would always help each other when one of us was in a fight. That shit was fun as hell.
They had an entire world at their disposal. Fans where very vocal on what they wanted, and they decided to do nothing. I have boat loads of memories from that game, and wish there could have been more, but sadly it won't.
I never got into RDO, I agree wholeheartedly with your opening comment about it feeling like a hollow shell of single player. Also, as a former World of Warcraft junkie the whole concept of daily quests and grinding the same missions for experience is something that I am completely over. To me the greatest tragedy of RDO is that no single player dlc or updates were released.
What really killed RDO for me, is on PC it is riddled with hackers that will just blow up the server over and over again, or spawn legendary animal pelts so people can just unlock all the special outfits with Gus. After my 5th trader wagon was blown up, I had it, wrote a ticket about it to RS and never heard anything back... Really broke my heart because I was a day one loyal player.
Man we hack on the game to have fun, there is no fun in it if we don’t hack. It’s boring as hell we have done everything minus well have fun and blow shit up
it makes me so mad, rockstar doesn’t seem to realise that the red dead IP is so much better (story and quality wise) than GTA. the GTA games are good but none of them carry the same weight and beauty red dead redemption (especially 2) has. and it sucks to know they only care about money
They desperately needed careers/missions involving train robberies, bank robberies, cattle rustling and more. Properties would have been nice but the camp is good enough. Since they've abandoned it, they should reduce the prices of everything or at least double payouts of missions etc.
My wife and I had so much fun playing RDR2 online when it first came. So many great memories we used to get gitty on the potential it had. To see it not get the attention it needed to become the next gta was disheartening for me and her
GTAV is Rockstar's Skyrim. Ages old, ported to anything but the kitchen sink, and they just prefer to do minimal work for that instead of releasing an actually new game. GTA6? Maybe? Sometime? Elder Scrolls 6? When Hell freezes over.
Played it for months daily during pandemic in 2020. It was so fun. Made a crew of friends online to play regularly with. Stopped playing early 2021. Haven’t played once since April or may 2021.
The development of GTA 6 has killed Gta online (There's like only 1 developer working on gta online right now), Killed red dead online and Killed the red dead redemption 1 remaster I hope gta 6 is good because rockstar has just completely gutted every other game to work on GTA 6
Gta 6 will suck lol. Rockstar lost it's cofounder, lead writer of every single game, lead storyboard maker, lead caster, lead producer, Dan Houser, Lazlo, Leslie Benzies, and outsources most it's work now while the main Rockstar crew led by Sam Houser, just care about music, DJs and other garbage.
@@gageowo9527 I think regardless of if they had all of the old staff the game will be disappointing to a lot of people due to the god like expectations set for the game. There stuck in a valve HL3 situation where they pretty much have to release the best game of all time or a lot of people will be unhappy even if it's a good/great game
I saw this video in my feed and while watching it I remembered how much I used to play this game with my friend. It was just me and him messing around and having the time of our lives. We literally stayed up nights grinding and I specifically remember us collecting cards to sell them using the map that shows you were they are, I would follow him the first time around then he would follow me the second time around. Then he got a girlfriend and life kinda just……happened. I’m gonna miss those days so much.
English is not my native language, but I hope you understand. Red Dead Redeption 2 is like Arthur Morgan: A tough guy that you don't like at first, but after a few hours you won't forget him. Red Dead Online is like Micah Bell: A damn greedy rat who only wants one thing. Your money and that you are miserable.
It’s so sad to see so many people not playing this game because of the lack of content.. in online I still find funny things to do and hidden areas to explore with glitches, it’s still really fun till this day making an entire outfit with my crew so we all match and can take over towns. I love it..
It’s very sad for a player who has been pretty much playing since late 2021 seeing a game they adore being abandoned and tossed away, red dead has some great potential because it’s different and so cool… I still remember the day when I got red dead redemption 2 and how excited I was for red dead online… now I’m sad that my fav game was abandoned
Nice video I remember playing with a short lived posse called the blood hunters, we all met in black water there was a massive shootout cuz lots of people had the police on them and we were all there and everything devolved into chaos, people were shooting at cops, friendly firing each other by accident, and shooting npcs which brought more cops, it was fun
I can't believe Rockstar put an online mode into a game that absolutely didn't need it FOR FREE and people have nothing but complaints. It's one of the strongest single player games of all time and people only care that the online experience isn't top notch.
I put just over 2k hours into RDO. Joined right after frontier pursuits but just before trader released. I met a group of fun friends and we'd be on every night. From griefing, to battling posses, to doing trade runs, robbing trade wagons or moonshine, it was a helluva time. I miss it so much. Those memories just make me want to go back to a time when I was actually having fun.
I litterally met a guy that teleported in front of me, gave me loot, shot me, spawned a legendary alligator, and then spawned a horse and I just left with it. And then I did an archery tournament where some guy was hacking with explosive arrows.
i played red dead 2 the first time through properly in late 2021 on the ps4 and then got it on pc in like march 2022, played the game the second time though and doing even more side missions than the first time and was blown away by the detail. then i thought gotta try the online mode on my summer break from work and i played a good 2 weeks nothing but red dead online and was waiting for a new update as the latest one was like 6-7months old at the time. then they announced gta6 and discontinued major red dead online updates. it felt kinda bad because for the first time in months i had fun playing a game, gta online i had played that since 2013 and was bored as hell even though there were new updates basically every 6months and other games like fifa that i played are gambling simulators now so i only had red dead online to play. i played it daily for a few months if nothing else just to do a daily challenge but since november i have had nothing to play because feels like i'm wasting my time playing rdo because there is no new stuff coming out lol guess i'm just going to have to wait for gta6 then lol
I remember playing up until moonshine update and coming back like a year later and being so disappointed that the only things to do were exactly the same a year ago
i bought rdr when i didnt have my pc in July of 2019, and now i finally bought one, rockstar drops the game. this game will always one of my favorite games, if not my favorite. the aesthetics, visuals, and just the look of the game get me every single time. the immersive main storyline, not to mention the online one too. it’s a shame rockstar wants more money than to make a game that is full of potential; a true game that everyone and their mother talks about. i don’t play much, but this game always holds a place in my heart
The very small update this past christmas was a lot of fun. Met a lot of new friends playing for the first time in awhile. such a shame they just abandoned it.
This is quite sad because RDO is still going strong in terms of players. This year, red dead redemption 2 (and online) had high sales during discount season. When I wander around RDO, most players I see are below level 50, very rarely I see anyone in a lobby above level 50. At one point, the highest i've seen in a full lobby was 80. Pretty surreal

Sadly I'm cutting out the Naturalist part of the video since Rockstar copyrighted it. And I don't want my entire video getting copyrighted for a 30 second clip. So if you notice a weird gap between Rockstar not fixing bugs and the bounty hunter update thats why. To sum up that part though Rockstar didn't properly update the game for 7 months then randomly added the Naturalist role as an update. Which most players including myself found dissapointing. Hopefully you guys can understand why I'm deciding to remove it and most importantly can still enjoy the video without it
dang
The naturalist role was just a bug fix disguised as an update because that's when the animal spawns were miraculously fixed.
Didn’t even notice the gap, good edit! Sorry youtube is being shitty :(
They haven’t bothered in two years now to fix the moonshiner roles bootleg missions from being stuck on kill remaining enemies… you can literally sit there all day. Then leave in five seconds you failed. I’ve only been able to complete like one or two… so I can’t get any bonuses for doing them.
@@wadeepperson6906 yeah I've encountered that problem myself it sucks
I can't think of a game that pissed me off more than RDO because every moment you played it, you knew just how awesome it COULD be but also knew it NEVER would be.
Bro I'm sitting here looking thru comments and you took the words right out of my mouth. I'm sitting here mad as shit just thinking the lack of old west games. RDR2 releases and its a masterpiece. With all the content in the story mode, expectations are high from the jump, But when it launched in a beta I knew it was gonna be trouble. I didnt play it till sometime in the pandemic. It was a load of fun with my buddies, but after completing all the legendary bounties and buying mostly everything in the store, I didnt feel the need to play it again. But just thinking of if they just added actual content to the game and didnt stop, I probably would never stop playing it.
Fr, swear the game still leaves a bitter taste in my mouth even after a couple years
There is one that jumps into my mind... Anthem
It’s so disappointing. Makes me miss RDR1’s online even more
And not to mention you'd be dynabowed by a paint it black player
I miss playing RDO with the buds but man... Rockstar really dropped the ball and the bar on this.
How so?
Rockstar have been dropping more balls than a basketball player the last 10 years.
@W J If I remember correctly I thibks they said they were working on rdr3
@@SomeRandomDoofus no they're working on GTA6
to bad rockstar cant worry about this dead game its time to move on to gta 6!
All the fanbase really wanted were train robberies, bank robberies, and properties (like ranches)... Rockstar Games just remained completely clueless about all of it. 😑😔
Hey they did add ugly outfits that clashed horribly with the RDR2 aesthetic, isn't that what you wanted? /s
Back then I was so hoping we would've atleast gotten properties before they abandoned the game but no that didnt happen unfortunately. I also wish we had bank and train heists but instead we got some half-assed shit. Considering how much banks there are and how there locked. The 3 jewel robberies we got shouldve had a similar overlay to GTA5 heists with planning/prepping all that stuff, much better pays, more AI. Perhaps with even a collector stand of the 3 jewels in your moonshiner shack. Would've been much cooler less dissapointing.
They weren't clueless, they just didn't give a fuck about us. Still had people buying shark cards 10 years in....that says it all.
i don't think they ever cared tbh
Imagine how RDR2 would be if Rockstar put as much time and effort into it as they do with GTA
Well that would actually require *effort and thought* to be put into a new thing while Rockstar can pump 2 updates/year into GTAO which they did for almost a decade and get the money that way.
It's sad how the success of GTAO morphed Rockstar into what it is today...
It would be better, way way better
Huh, they did work hella hard for rdr2 seriously it's one of the greatest game ever
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT GTA ONLINE IS ALSO SHIT LOL YOU SPEND MORE MONEY THEN MAKE FOR ONE...
AND ON TOP OF THAT GTA ONLINE ECONOMY IS HORRIBLE....
1MILL DOLLARS IN GTA ONLINE IS LIKE 1K$ HAHAHAHA
@@geraltdelautreriv I agree but thats mostly small details and story exc. Hes fully talking about red dead online about how it would be if they made many more updates such as robberies/heists items clothing properties missions and things such as that.
And the sad part is; as soon as GTA6 releases, everyone is gonna jump ship and forgive Rockstar for everything. It's exactly what Rockstar wants and it's exactly what they know's gonna happened. Rockstar gets away with everything and it sucks.
Pretty much like Riot games, remember all the stuff about harrasing females? Forgoten, while Blizzard still is thought with that, Riot released good content, Blizzard didn't.
Sadly that will probably happend, it just makes me hate gta6 without it even being released
I'm never buying another rockstar game after rdr2. Unless they really stepped it up with rdr3 in 10 years lol. GTA 6 is just going to be another cash grab like the rest of rockstars online games.
There won’t be a GTA6 to buy 😂
@@prezmil4282 gta 6 is on development, pretty much confirmed by them, they LETTER, that they sent to red dead online fans is "We are working on GTA 6, so no resources for rdo lol" 3 seconds later they release 2 updates for gta Online, trully a genius company
I wouldn't be so sure about it. Yes, they will make lots of cash in the beginning...but i believe it will not play out like the would like it. Games like GTA5 and RDR2 are incredible expensive to make, so satisfying the consumer base means making the next installment bigger, better, fancier and specs-hungry. Most players will only afford next-gen consoles so much "better" is not to be expected. Players will soon realise how "just another installment" it will be and drop it even faster as soon as DLCs begin to dwindle. And if than something happens like the modder situation in GTAO, GTA6 will simply fade.
The biggest problem with RDO is that it was never "at it's prime" or has "peaked". During it's entire lifespan it was always "getting there" with rockstar not knowing how to handle it. Even after all the updates the game was still mostly empty. Where are the properties and heists? GTAO was only really complete after the heist update. Which took them years. Rockstar doesn't know how to handle any online mode.
no leslie benzies, no succes.
The sad thing the original rdr had a great online mode that got a ton of updates and new content
A friend of mine constantly warping aroung. Hilarious too see fo mebut its the only game with that issue
The sad thing is even if it did get the GTAO treatment, it still would have missed its full potential. As fun as GTAO is, the game limits you in many ways for what's supposed to be a crime simulator.
All they needed to do is add a couple of farmhouses etc. add Heists and make stuff like wagons and carriages purchasable so that players can use them. That's all...
My god, I played this with my father and his online friends for hundreds of hours, we had a posse called the Regulators, we Bounty Hunted and helped people out for the most part, most importantly we all wore the same badass outfit… rest in peace Dad…

damn bro, almost made me cry at 5 in the morning. i know the feeling man lost my mom at 2 months and my step mom at 14, im 20 now😥

Rest in peace
I remember falling in love with rdr1 and thinking it couldn’t be bested. Then undead nightmare came out and shattered my world. A dlc that was more fun than a AAA game. I do not understand why it wasn’t done for the sequel. Painfully sad. R* is losing its luster
Undead Nightmare is one of if not the greatest add on to a game it’s better than RD1
The old dev masters are starting to be replaced more and more by “fresh” talent coming in, and it’s *really* starting to show across the industry.
Because they make more on gtao, so they didn't bother with any single player dlc for gta 5 or rdr2, when rdo didnt make enough money they killed it and when gta6 comes out they'll kill either gtao or the gtao2 or whatever they call gta6 online depending on which makes less money. They don't care about delivering a good experience they care about milking as much money out of wage slaves as possible.
I played Red Dead Online since the beta and it is quite sad to see the game where it is now. All the memories I made with friends just grinding the game. We would do bounties, moonshine wagons, and trader wagons. Even though Red Dead Online was a bad game; it left good memories on a lot of folk.
I agree... Rockstar need to give you content because you have no imagination.....
Maybe try another game after 4 years?
@@benjamindavis6535 forreal I bet half these people that say it's bad, probably sucked at the game, if you were always winning the game it wouldn't get boring
Same, i still often play with friends just to have fun but nothing can describe the disappointment the blood money update brought, we grinded for months expecting to have lots to buy and enjoy, instead we were greeted with sloppy missions and nothing to buy
@@SquillyWonka how you gonna win at an open world game?
@@Hello-kb8qm by never losing lol
For me, the biggest problem is not finishing what was started, online has a lot of features that should have been put in story mode. Small stuff like removing the secondary holsters, but looking back the story mode wasn’t even done yet, there should’ve been an update, let us go back to Guarma, put in deleted content. Then put in the good things from Online. I didn’t play online much, but when I did, I couldn’t have fun because you couldn’t achieve anything. I only played the game because; “Wow! Full fledged gun spinning? That’s awesome!” Then I got it and I never played again because I couldn’t even do it as Arthur so who cares.
I never really thought about that but ur right. I think bridging that gap between the campaign and online has always been a major problem with the game. And both the campaign and online were both at fault in that regard
Its not even asking them to make new content. Imagine how cool it would be if they implemented stuff like ducking on horseback, picking plants while mounted, faster walking speed to story mode.
Exactly, I mean- just put the goddamn Navy revolver in there! The elephant rifle- there’s no reason not to do it!
I got RDR2 in October 2022 from the steam sale and I am so sad that I missed out on the better era of RDO. It's so fun to play with my friends but after a while it's so easy to lose interest because of how lackluster the missions are compared to the main story. Also, it's difficult for a casual gamer to play solo because of how many hackers there are. I really wish Rockstar didn't abandon the game :(
The good old days were the best, wish you were there to see them):
Making progress in this game at this point is nearly impossible. Everyone is either hacking or blowing your head off while you can't even fire back. Depressing really
the greatest game that never was, could have been so much more. i’ll never forgive them or let them forget this
Shut up 🤡
Literally why I'm not buying GTA6. I don't care how good it is. They ruined this masterpiece
rdr2o was so incredible at its peak i remember hopping on with my friends and being so excited for the new content drops, but now i have everything in the game with nothing new to do
Rdo with friends > Gta Online with friends
If you "Have everything" and have "Nothing to do" go play another game..... nobody is forcing you to play rdo sweetheart.
You know there are other videogames out there, right? I mean.... you're crying that a game that came out 5 years ago has run out of content for you......
RDO never "peaked". That is the main problem with it. RDO was always in a state of "it's getting there". It was never at it's high.
some of you are really reaching. incredible? no. knock it off. it was fun sure, but not incredible. gta online before allthe sharkcards and overpowered vehicles, now that was incredible. public challenges, fighting in between, doing missions/heists or just chillin. now that was an incredible time. cod4/mw2/bo1, now that was an incredible time. gta iv online now that was an incredible time.
gta 5 post sharkcards/overpowered vehicles is just trash and this includes rdr online.
RDO was the one game that truly could of been my ultimate game to play, but Rockstar completely killed it. It's really bizzare how they spent so much time and money on making the game only to turn around and ditch it after
Worse, they started selling the online as a standalone only to drop it.
Well said bud. Unfortunately this is the day and age we're in. These corporations don't care about the gaming community just lining their pockets by pushing micro transactions down our throats.
this makes me so sad and mad at the same time. this game could’ve had so much potential 😭
Seeing this game from start to end really hits hard, out of all my friends I was the only one who kept faith 😂 Playing it now just feels like a “ghost town”. Disappoints me R* abandoned the game after the naturalist update and just gave us weekly discounts and the terrible rewards like capitale 💀
I first started playing rdr2 maybe 7 or 6 months ago and I absolutely loved the story. When I first got into rdo soon after I struggled so much to the point where I just decided to drop 5 or 10 dollars for some gold bars so I could get a bounty license and some drip. I started having fun just doing bounties so I could get more money for clothes and guns but the world felt so empty and underdeveloped compared to how it is in the story. Most towns were filled with griefers and my game would crash a lot, and I play on a ps5. I think I’m around level 40 now but I haven’t played in a couple months because I was tired of grinding trader. I really wanted to get a bounty wagon and some more gun tricks but I guess I have to get the bs advanced bounty license or whatever it is
The prestigious bounty hunter licence is not required for the bounty wagon. It unlocks for purchase at level 10 of the regular bounty hunter role.
This part of the monetization seems to be pretty similar between RDO and GTAO. Most content has has steep paywalls that require a lot of grinding through the low payout content available to new players, tempting them to drop real money in order to "get started".
All of which is insanely paywall blocked. How are you going to tell me my character, an ex-Union cavalry officer nearing the age of 60, has to pay MILLIONS (relatively) of dollars in gold to become a bounty hunter just to learn how to spin his gun? Like, what is that?
Locking what little content there is behind paywalls is perfectly indicative of Rockstars mentality towards its customers
Fool
Grind moonshiner, dummy
I was ALWAYS hoping they'd introduce cryptids to the game around Halloween...Can you imagine riding your horse through the wilderness at night and all of a sudden a huge Wendigo starts chasing you through the forest! Or you're able to hunt a Yeti in the high snowy mountains, discover there's a Werewolf lurking around the Wapiti Reservation, or investigate mysterious killings in Tumbleweed to find out it's a Chupacabra! The things they could do with that would be endless!
They should’ve hired you lmao
I also wish they could’ve added different vehicles like a wagon with a Gatling gun, or a wagon that you can store players in.
For real man. During Christmas they could have even had a flying sleigh with reindeer and what not. They just did nothing with the game which is sad af cause if you put it in the hands of a team of creative people the possibilities would be endless.
I remember having no animals spawning even with the frontier pursuits. It took me several months just to reach max rank 20 in trader because of no animal spawn. I haven’t touched online since November 2021 even then I was hardly playing it before that.
Damn that sucks. Respect for still reaching the max rank for trader though 😅
I remember playing missions solo just to hunt animals because for some reason animals spawned during certain missions
I remember when you could see everyone kinda miss those days RIP to my Friend Bo that I met on this game
I’m still enjoying my time in red dead, I try not to get to upset about the lack of content and ruin it for myself so instead I turn the hud off and just immerse myself in the world with no real end game goal, just running my businesses and existing in the world, cause it will be a long time before we get another world as beautiful as this. Wish rockstar wouldn’t have left this game behind
I remember doing the exact same thing but in the campaign
Same, I've been playing RDO for about a year now, I played a little every day for a while there to get the Daily Challenge gold bonus. I took a break to play another game, but I'm back into it now. I love loading up the game, checking the Daily Challenges, just riding around hunting and collecting and seeing the beautiful world. I have a lot of pressures and stresses in my real-world life, I don't need to be overly ambitious and big-goal-focused in my game life. Just relaxing in a beautiful world is enough for me to have a good time.
However, I still see so many gaps, where I could enjoy it more. I would love to be able to sell horses, I would love to have a bit of property, I would honestly love to be able to have a second character without having to delete my first. I'd love more NPCs in the world, to make it more vibrant. There are also the dumb glitches that make it feel a little unloved and neglected. But overall, the game is so beautiful and relaxing and meets a need for me.
I played from day one and at the beginning there was basically nothing to do and the pay outs were horrendous. It really started gaining momentum with Frontier Pursuits and Moonshiners. They are both great updates and they added cool stuff like being able to play with the band in your bar. It seems after the moonshiners dlc they decided to stop supporting it. Weird because that’s when the game was gaining momentum.
True it really was a perfect oppurtunity for the game to grow
I agree with most of what you said but I still enjoy playing any chance I get. If I can lose myself for a couple hours and forget about what’s going on in the world today it’s worth it to me. I’ll play till they shut it down.
This was depressing. That game had a special place in my heart. Now it's nothing
On the bright side hopefully Gta 6 is good or we get a Rdr3 some time in the future
Rdo is getting an update this month.
If you only play online, yeah. But story mode is GOD
@@ISkinFlamingos source?
@@AbstractMethods the fact that its getting an update this month
The no animal spawn bug is one that started very early on for a lot of people including myself... it was the main reason I stopped playing in the first place. I came back when roles were added, but again with no animal spawning, the trader role was painful and I stopped playing and never came back that time around.
there were a few work-arounds, like getting in a solo lobby, or hunting in certain missions
@@beelzebuth2479how do you get in a solo lobby? Plz I need to know
I hate Battle Royale, not just as a game style but for all the damage it did to perfectly good games as devs jumped on that bandwagon and made everything have a Battle Royale game. N1Z1 single/co-op got completely abandoned in favor of BR.
I remember earning up to 11 gold a day it was insane. Then nerfing the gold and not giving content made no sense
I remember having a 100+ daily streak lol
So sad best game I ever played. If Rockstar don't want it anymore , they simply sell it to some other company who needs it and who can handle its legacy well. I will die for Rdr3 or extensions that tell story about Charles, Sadie and all forgotten Characters so much potential in this game.
Honestly I want to know what happend to jack
@@nemzi8969 How I think of where Jacks story ends off is kind of like Johns in RDR1 but more extreme. Time has moved on, he is no longer an outlaw, but a fugitive. Difference being that John liked that kind of life, Jack was more like a scholar, but dragged into it by betrayal/revenge. Will be interesting to see what they do with RDR3, though I think going further back would probably be cooler for the gameplay. Make it at the peak of gunslingers, let you have a little gang, let you choose who to bring on missions and where to rob etc. Would be hard to make the story as cool as the first 2, but I also didn't think they could improve on RDR and they 10000x it with RDR2 I can hope.
This game still has so much potential. In my opinion it has more potential then gta online ever will
I've only started playing RDO because my cousin wanted someone to play with. Also I've gotten every single story achievement and all that's left are online ones...
It was utter disappointment. I ran into bugs the very first day I started playing. One of the most infuriating bugs was the stable glitch. For some players going into the stables at all can softlock your game. You have to restart completely.
I tried call to Arms. Incredible amount of bugs. Either the enemies would stop spawning all together, or only 2 at a time on my teamate every 15s. Only one that seemed to work for me was Fort Mercer.
I don't mind the gameplay. It's just the bugs that kill me. And I've only explored a handful of the game too. Imagine all the bugs I haven't had simply because I haven't explored. For a 5 year old game, you'd think important bugs would be fixed. Guess not.
edit: new bugs found. There's a bug with the wilderness camp where you'll get stuck in an infinite loading screen when using sometimes.
There's a bug with the legendary animal missions in naturalist where you are spawned in and can hear people, ambience, etc. but an infinite loading screen is overlaying that. I had to pull up the menu and navigate it blindy to online and rejoin a different session...
There's a bug when selling and delivering goods where the rest of the raiders won't spawn...
They gave up, if anything they just added new bugs on top of the old ones, never took time to correct them or even acknowledge they exist.
I played for a few hours earlier, I stopped playing years ago, and I couldn't believe the moonshine bug is still there, it's game breaking but they could not care less...
I just started playing RDO and honestly despite the fact there aren't many (friendly) players that I've met, I'm still having a shit ton of fun.
Comments like this make me want to get back on. As level 200 I would love wiping a gang that were griefing people in saint Dennis
@@CaleebTalib dude speaking of, I got into a shootout in my first hour with like 2 different groups of people in Saint Denis lol I couldn't fight for the life of me but my only other teammate kept me as alive as he could😂 edit: really appreciate that guy still, i had to leave soon after but he carried me through some stuff and added me to his posse so that was sweet
It just feels like theres nothing to do... I don't like getting griefed by cheaters, and all there is to do as a solo player is try to chip away at this endless grind.
Meanwhile you get paid money you'd expect to see in the 1800s, while guns cost as much as they cost in the 2000s. Arthur can sell looted items for 10× the price you can in online. Arthur can actually loot more than $0.02 off of an enemy, etc
@@Atheta426 I only recently started playing and haven't checked out story mode too often because I'm really attached to my RDO horse lol
I'm hoping to check out story mode more tho soon
This type of commentary video is what's going to get you noticed and get you subscribers. Keep at it
Will do man thanks
I used to joke with my friends that I was getting on rdo "for an honest living"
It has so much potential, all I wanted was to get my own spot not just a camp. And a continuation of the online story
i miss the game so much. i've been attempting to play it every couple weeks since they announced they were pretty much abandoning the game, and it has been impossible. either a game-breaking bug (like the stable bug, my horse being invisible, NPCs being invisible, etc.) happens less than 5 minutes into gameplay, a shit-ton of glitches occur, both happen at once, or on the rare occasion i can actually play the game for more than 30 minutes until i get bored. it's so saddening to see a game with such great prospect just go down the drain because of sheer laziness.
Imagine if R* shifted all the online content back into the story.....you know, the part of the game people actually want to play!
Good breakdown. Do more like this and in sure your channel will blow up!
thanks. i only played this for a couple weeks but i put a ton of hours into the first and second single player campaigns including UN. This game will always have a special place in my heart.
Thanks for taking the time. Appreciate the input.
I just started playing red dead online and I have no idea what I’m doing. I’m super overwhelmed, but I just want more red dead in my life.
Yeah its pretty different to the campaign lol. One tip that I didn't know when I started is when you press left on the d-pad it takes you to your player menu which can be very handy. I didn't figure that out for ages 😅
check out some beginner guide videos
you should know that rdo is a real grind at the start when you have nothing
Do daily challenges to get gild to buy roles. Bounty hunter for gold and trader for cash. I'm on my 3rd character
Use the gold u get to at start to buy bounty hunter license, good cash for start
Lol I started playing online about a month ago. Do the lake Isabella glitch at least once to make everything easier in the start. Starting with 90 good bars and 8K for free makes it less stressful for me.
Also kind of poetically matches the theme of the story too. The ending of the wild west and the birth of the modern world. From peaceful nature with outlaws & heroes sprinkled throughout. To big bright steel cities teeming with psychopaths lol.
People make fun of rdo for the same growing pains gta online went through, and still has, like the overpriced items and the small amount of money you made from heists when they were added.
What is sad is that Cockstar could have had 2 successful online games if they treated RDO anywhere as good as they treat GTAO. A company like them with 4000 developers could have assigned maybe 300 to 500 to work solely on RDO. That final statement Cockstar puts out really says it all. They never intended long term support for RDO and because of how they have treated the game and also their customers I will never buy anything from Cockstar in the future. I have lost complete trust in that company
CockStarved*
Damn he called them cockstar gta 6 is now cancelled
“Cockstar” is right
The sad thing about Rockstar is, with RDR2 the have a really beautiful pearl in their portfolio and they could have made it one of the prettiest games ever (single & Multiplayer) but when greed rule your life, yeah, dead game.
Easily the game with the most potential I've ever seen. Sadly not much of it was ever realized.
I still play online, with my friends who occasionally join. I love the aesthetics of the game ❤ hate pvp, just love riding around and hanging out in the game :) still truly love all the horses my main fav is the big shire horse that is black with white spots and white mane n tail! His name is Hephaestus.
That's funny. I got the special edition black horse, gave him a cropped white mane and braided white tail. Named him Spartan.
And then my giant Roan, Lannister.
I wish I had friends to play this game with. I wish rockstar was better than this.
Ngl its kinda sad seeing that a game with so much potential was wasted
Pretty good video man hope it gets more views I joined rdo like a month after it’s last update so I missed out on a lot of hype and excitement and got a dead game
Thanks man. Its sad that people like yourself will never experience this game at its best. Especially if you still enjoy the game in its present state.
It's sad that they abandoned this game. i started playing again recently because i was curious if they changed anything. met a couple of really nice people to play with, been playing it every day and still having a lot of fun ( we do make game modes ourself in game)
I was under the assumption that Online is not even working anymore. I guess new games are released so unfinished, and the attention spans are so short among players, that a game needs constant updates, new content and maintenance to maintain a playerbase.
@@goldbullet50 hopefully they will change their minds and they will start supporting it again but doubt it
All the griefers left? Maybe I'll fire it up just to enjoy the world one last time. The only positive to RDO being abandoned is the griefers went back to GTA to harass people there I guess.
@@JeremyCuddles no unfortunately there’s still a lot of griefers
Definitely like 80% fewer griefing than back then.
On a brighter note this game does really give you that felling like "Our time has passed" despite i just casually join the game back in December two years ago.
I loved this game so much there really is nothing else like it but at a certain point even with friends playing there was nothing left to do. At the end I would get on to do dailys and just patrol my camp for about 30 minutes before quitting cause I just love the atmosphere but that could only keep me for so long. RIP to a fun time for sure
Dope video.
It's also worth mentioning the current state of the game. 90% of the player base are hackers. The last of the loyal fans can't even enjoy the game when everyone in matchmaking has God mode on.
The number comes from...?
console
Rockstar basically gave RDO a case of TB, and it’s been slowly dying a choking, spluttering death ever since. 😑🤨
I'm sad that i never got to experience the game at its peak...
I love the quality of your video though! keep on the grind brother!
I started RDO a week ago and I really like it, for a new player its not bad
I'm glad you're enjoying it man
It’s a real shame because I’ve been playing red dead online more than ever recently. So much to do. But I can see the roles slowly maxing out and the money becoming more useless and eventually I know there will be nothing left to be on for… if only they just did a fraction of the gtaO dlcs
Man I miss playing RDO with this dude i had met. We would both just be running around shooting up towns and would always help each other when one of us was in a fight. That shit was fun as hell.
It's a shame that frontier pursuits was rdos peak because at the time it felt like the beginning
They had an entire world at their disposal. Fans where very vocal on what they wanted, and they decided to do nothing. I have boat loads of memories from that game, and wish there could have been more, but sadly it won't.
It’s because it didn’t make them enough money
It was fun while it lasted. Now i just feel sorry for the people that are still grinding
Nice video,summed up RDO perfectly
I never got into RDO, I agree wholeheartedly with your opening comment about it feeling like a hollow shell of single player. Also, as a former World of Warcraft junkie the whole concept of daily quests and grinding the same missions for experience is something that I am completely over. To me the greatest tragedy of RDO is that no single player dlc or updates were released.
What really killed RDO for me, is on PC it is riddled with hackers that will just blow up the server over and over again, or spawn legendary animal pelts so people can just unlock all the special outfits with Gus. After my 5th trader wagon was blown up, I had it, wrote a ticket about it to RS and never heard anything back... Really broke my heart because I was a day one loyal player.
Man we hack on the game to have fun, there is no fun in it if we don’t hack. It’s boring as hell we have done everything minus well have fun and blow shit up
it makes me so mad, rockstar doesn’t seem to realise that the red dead IP is so much better (story and quality wise) than GTA. the GTA games are good but none of them carry the same weight and beauty red dead redemption (especially 2) has. and it sucks to know they only care about money
I completely agree
I would argue that GTA: SA and gta 4 have the best stories, but to each their own.
They desperately needed careers/missions involving train robberies, bank robberies, cattle rustling and more. Properties would have been nice but the camp is good enough.
Since they've abandoned it, they should reduce the prices of everything or at least double payouts of missions etc.
My wife and I had so much fun playing RDR2 online when it first came. So many great memories we used to get gitty on the potential it had. To see it not get the attention it needed to become the next gta was disheartening for me and her
RDO Had so much potential…
GTAV is Rockstar's Skyrim.
Ages old, ported to anything but the kitchen sink, and they just prefer to do minimal work for that instead of releasing an actually new game.
GTA6? Maybe? Sometime?
Elder Scrolls 6? When Hell freezes over.
If gta or rdr online had your characters talk I think people would enjoy it a little more. Sometimes just riding through the map is kinda depressing
Played it for months daily during pandemic in 2020. It was so fun. Made a crew of friends online to play regularly with. Stopped playing early 2021. Haven’t played once since April or may 2021.
Now imagine how much the next GTA game is going to be milked. I feel like the next GTA is going to be the last rockstar game.
True Gta 6 Online is going to be about for at least 20 years
The development of GTA 6 has killed Gta online (There's like only 1 developer working on gta online right now), Killed red dead online and Killed the red dead redemption 1 remaster I hope gta 6 is good because rockstar has just completely gutted every other game to work on GTA 6
Gta 6 will suck lol. Rockstar lost it's cofounder, lead writer of every single game, lead storyboard maker, lead caster, lead producer, Dan Houser, Lazlo, Leslie Benzies, and outsources most it's work now while the main Rockstar crew led by Sam Houser, just care about music, DJs and other garbage.
@@gageowo9527 I think regardless of if they had all of the old staff the game will be disappointing to a lot of people due to the god like expectations set for the game. There stuck in a valve HL3 situation where they pretty much have to release the best game of all time or a lot of people will be unhappy even if it's a good/great game
@@GnWVaporing yeah. But Rockstar for some reason still has really good PR. The Fanboys will defend whatever they release. At least to an extent.
i have a group, we still play this despite the lack of content we just find our own way to have fun. we play on PC to say its a struggle.
I saw this video in my feed and while watching it I remembered how much I used to play this game with my friend. It was just me and him messing around and having the time of our lives. We literally stayed up nights grinding and I specifically remember us collecting cards to sell them using the map that shows you were they are, I would follow him the first time around then he would follow me the second time around. Then he got a girlfriend and life kinda just……happened. I’m gonna miss those days so much.
I started with rdo a month ago with my friends, it is eigendlich quite nice.
Rdo with friends has always been fun. Only problem is most of my friends just aren't interested in the game
@@ItsAnomal same lmao
I still play it everyday lol.. y’all kill me with this dead online shit.
It's 2023 and you still cannot rob banks in RDO.
Let that sink in
The thing that always kept me away was the ridiculously OP Aim Assist, you couldnt go anywhere without being headshottet instantly
They needed an Undead Nightmare
I still can't believe they didn't make an Undead Nightmare 2 for the campaign or online
@@ItsAnomal corporate greed and zero creative direction.
Gun Rush was the best!
Nice to see someone who enjoyed gun rush 😂
Great video man! Keep it up
English is not my native language, but I hope you understand.
Red Dead Redeption 2 is like Arthur Morgan:
A tough guy that you don't like at first, but after a few hours you won't forget him.
Red Dead Online is like Micah Bell:
A damn greedy rat who only wants one thing. Your money and that you are miserable.
It’s never been more popular than it is now 😁👍
I have also only recently started
It’s so sad to see so many people not playing this game because of the lack of content.. in online I still find funny things to do and hidden areas to explore with glitches, it’s still really fun till this day making an entire outfit with my crew so we all match and can take over towns. I love it..
It’s very sad for a player who has been pretty much playing since late 2021 seeing a game they adore being abandoned and tossed away, red dead has some great potential because it’s different and so cool…
I still remember the day when I got red dead redemption 2 and how excited I was for red dead online… now I’m sad that my fav game was abandoned
Nice video
I remember playing with a short lived posse called the blood hunters, we all met in black water there was a massive shootout cuz lots of people had the police on them and we were all there and everything devolved into chaos, people were shooting at cops, friendly firing each other by accident, and shooting npcs which brought more cops, it was fun
I can't believe Rockstar put an online mode into a game that absolutely didn't need it FOR FREE and people have nothing but complaints.
It's one of the strongest single player games of all time and people only care that the online experience isn't top notch.
I put just over 2k hours into RDO. Joined right after frontier pursuits but just before trader released.
I met a group of fun friends and we'd be on every night. From griefing, to battling posses, to doing trade runs, robbing trade wagons or moonshine, it was a helluva time. I miss it so much. Those memories just make me want to go back to a time when I was actually having fun.
Never played it but sucks how they did RDRO players. Great video brother.
getting a GTA Online ad before the video is really telling
Awesome video man 👍🏾
I litterally met a guy that teleported in front of me, gave me loot, shot me, spawned a legendary alligator, and then spawned a horse and I just left with it. And then I did an archery tournament where some guy was hacking with explosive arrows.
Imagine getting a western-themed online game and you can’t even rob banks or trains.
i played red dead 2 the first time through properly in late 2021 on the ps4 and then got it on pc in like march 2022, played the game the second time though and doing even more side missions than the first time and was blown away by the detail.
then i thought gotta try the online mode on my summer break from work and i played a good 2 weeks nothing but red dead online and was waiting for a new update as the latest one was like 6-7months old at the time. then they announced gta6 and discontinued major red dead online updates.
it felt kinda bad because for the first time in months i had fun playing a game, gta online i had played that since 2013 and was bored as hell even though there were new updates basically every 6months and other games like fifa that i played are gambling simulators now so i only had red dead online to play. i played it daily for a few months if nothing else just to do a daily challenge but since november i have had nothing to play because feels like i'm wasting my time playing rdo because there is no new stuff coming out lol
guess i'm just going to have to wait for gta6 then lol
I remember playing up until moonshine update and coming back like a year later and being so disappointed that the only things to do were exactly the same a year ago
The Varmint RIFLE!!! Omg I forgot about that and the cougar carcass dupe 🤣🤣
i bought rdr when i didnt have my pc in July of 2019, and now i finally bought one, rockstar drops the game. this game will always one of my favorite games, if not my favorite. the aesthetics, visuals, and just the look of the game get me every single time. the immersive main storyline, not to mention the online one too. it’s a shame rockstar wants more money than to make a game that is full of potential; a true game that everyone and their mother talks about. i don’t play much, but this game always holds a place in my heart
The very small update this past christmas was a lot of fun. Met a lot of new friends playing for the first time in awhile. such a shame they just abandoned it.
This is quite sad because RDO is still going strong in terms of players. This year, red dead redemption 2 (and online) had high sales during discount season. When I wander around RDO, most players I see are below level 50, very rarely I see anyone in a lobby above level 50. At one point, the highest i've seen in a full lobby was 80. Pretty surreal
