Multiplat Red Dead Redemption 2 - Pre-launch thread

Guessing the Superbowl rumor didn't come true? Was looking forward to today

Just on this, I don't understand why games (especially RPGs) still use level recommendation based systems. Scaling is a much, much better solution than having "level 20" quests that are hard at level 15 and easy at level 35. I like to do side missions but by the time you get back to the story you basically walk over the top of everything.

In a way I don't mind it, nothing raises the blood pressure more than aimlessly wandering into a new area and being beset on by Skull marked enemies.

You can somewhat offset it by raising the difficulty once you level up some, but even that only goes so far. That's when some enemy scaling would be nice

It would've been nice, but Rockstar don't need to drop $5 million on an ad when they'll get just as many views online by dropping it and it going viral via FB and Twitter. Costs them nothing

I too got excited

September 26th leaked by UK retailers apparently....

That's way too close to Destiny 2.

Delay pls

 

[palmomagpie]

Game delayed!!!

[JADED]

Delays were a given. See it in 2019.

 

[pantskyle]

It's Rockstar so was always going to be delayed. Those screens alone make that worth it.

 

[Glenno23]

Looks ridiculous

Reckon we'll see it May next year

Can't wait!

 

[Lance Uppercut]

I'm fine with it. And horny

 

[Father Jack]

I didn't know there had been a date announced to start with so I thought they'd actually moved the date up from next year

They announced Autumn 2017 (which is our Spring) as a launch window when they released the teaser

Now we'll have to wait 6 more months. But i can wait 6 extra months for a masterpiece

 

[Glenno23]

And if Last of Us Part 2 comes out next year with RDR 2, the GOTY awards have already become tough!

 

[Smoooothy]

damn rockstar, my penis can only take so much abuse!

Well I must have taken no notice, for what have turned out to be very good reasons!

 

[boydsno1]

I don't mind the delay. Means it should def have an updated version for the Scorpio.

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

Early leader for the most unsurprising delay of the year.

 

[Quivorir]

God damn those screenshots make me moist.

 

[dwwaino]

No surprises about the delay or that 'Yes' is still leading the thread poll.

 

[Blacky]

Shocked to be sitting here

 

[TheKanga]

Delicious!

 

[Gralin]

give me more time to save up for a Scorpio to run it on I guess

 

[NUFC Tiger]

Already had this in my head as a 2018 release so this news doesn't really bother me haha.

 

[Runk]

Well truly, this was the only game I was pumped for this year......

I guess I'll have to be pumped for it next year.

Hoping this gets the GTA V treatment and makes it's way to PC.

Will probs grab it on the Scorpio in the interim.
