When will this snow disappear?

[erektus]

I am tired of it, honestly.

It lasts like 2 to 3 whole weeks. It REALLY overstays it's welcome. Also is a big middle finger to new players or lower level players that don't have warm clothing.

While i agree on it last one week too long, tbf new players along with others had the option to get a full new set of clothes + a winters jacket free, while this event had lasted.

Why people always have something to complain about?
These seasonal snow updates do not last very long.

Can't wear any actually nice outfits, cause it's too cold.
It would be fine like I said, if it was only like a few days. But a couple of weeks is overkill.

That's total bull.
I killed a Legendary Fox by LVL 10 and sold the parts to Gus, which unlocked ability to purchase a coat made from said Fox parts, from him. Now for newer players that would probably be a somewhat expensive coat, but still, it doesn't look awful...

But there are also plenty of warm coats and vests to get from the Clothing Stores. I'm pretty sure that a warm coat is really all you need. In Lemoyne and basically everywhere to the south of that, and east and west of that, it generally doesn't get cold enough. The game is odd in that pretty much above 34*F (1*C) you can wear the least amount of clothes you want and it doesn't make a difference unless the Temp drops below this.

This is what I switched to at any Temp below 50-60*F (10-15*C)

And yes it keeps me just as warm as the Fox pelt coat. Even at 7*F (-13*C)

When the Temps are above 60*F (15*C) or so, I wear this.

Not sure how the snow makes hunting any harder, oh wait, it doesn't.
Not one bit. It does make seeing some plant related highlights harder to see in Eagle-Eye, but besides that, not a huge deal.

Overall though I think RDO probably just feels overwhelming atm of a new player simply because they added things over-time and now you have too much to dive into as a new player. Not uncommon for those types of games that have added content over time. Veteran players are bored simply because they maybe started way back when many of what you see, such as the various Roles, were not there yet. So everything getting trickled into the game a little at a time. New players today; well you've missed all the Outlaw passes and also 2 Halloweens.

If you somehow don't know the map very well yet, then maybe you need to play Story Mode first.

LOL WHAT? TOO MUCH CONTENT?
I have NEVER seen anyone unironically say RDO has "Too much content" in any capacity quite the opposite.

GTAO is more important guys, no updates for RDO because YOU DON'T BUY ENOUGH GOLD BARS.

Thx R*

I'm only saying that new players might feel that way.
As again, when those who are now bored of RDO started out, most of what is in RDO right now was never there yet.

I don't want to play online because of the snow, like others noted it does hurt the eyes after a period of time with high textures and F-p-Sec's, regarding the the history of snow in the desert from other posts on the topic, yes it did snow during the ice age there and time periods of the earths high oxygen level's and noble gases in the atmosphere.
The're ICE CORE SAMPLES TO PROVE IT, based on concentrated ice density and, the presence of gas elements dating back to even the time period the game is based on. The duration of the snow in the desert and most area's are completely unrealistic, thus slowing down the player in hunting and naturalism. I still can hunt good in this weather unlike others, but it effects the health of my vision to the point I need to quit playing, just to wait to the end of it. I understand the pain others feel from it, I wish it was off and on a few days or a week then come back only during the winter to stay near the realism level so others would not have to endure it during the lengthy time period, if you lived up north or south near the poles, you have no choice but, to just stop playing and shovel it or prepare for a power outage, along with other vital real survival preparations....................

I love it, I'll miss it when it's gone. At least this last day of it is on my birthday.

You're wrong on this. Just because you haven't seen anyone saying that, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. To fulfil your knowledge, I think Online mode has a lot of content for starters like I am. And I don't even play PvP events. I only unlocked PvP achievements and that's it. And as much as you think the opposite, I enjoy the Online content and it, for me, offers a lot.
But indeed, I am tired of the snow.

That's true. New players can be overwhelmed with all the content Online provides. I was as well and I still am. It's not easy to earn Gold to start another role, so that will (if I don't quit) keep me busy for a long, long time.

I started Online during this "Holiday event", didn't have a simple coat to keep me warm and when the temperatures are lover you also need additional protection. So instead of earning some money as a beginner I had to spend all my money on new and cheapest clothes.
I also want this snow to go away.

Oh look, yet another discussion to complain about the snow in RDO and ask when it's ending!

With just a few seconds of searching you'd have found out that it's scheduled to end on January 5th, 2022.

K, it's january 5th and it's like late into the evening already. You sure what you read was reliable? lol

Also, tbh the fact that everyone is like OMG THE SNOW IS SO GREAT GUYS really just shows how absolutely starved you people are for any actual new content. Like, good lord. The snow is trash. Just admit it. It's not even realistic either. I could see it snowing in the northern areas alot. But in New Austin? And some other dingus said like BUT IT SNOWS IN THE DESERT yeah, but 24/7? I'm not so sure about that chief. It would be fine if the snow was a replacement for rain and such until the event was over. And like I said, if New Austin wasn't as cold as the rest of the map 24/7 (Which makes no sense.) then I don't think I or many others would mind it as much.

But instead like always R* goes the lazy route and just makes it a constant on the entire map. And it REALLY overstays it's welcome too. And people compare it to the GTAO snow. But guys... the GTAO snow barely affects gameplay in a meaningful way either. Lasts way shorter despite that. And in general just isn't as obnoxious as RDO snow.

Yes, the snow goes away January 5th, as in that's the FINAL day! Guess you haven't been playing RDO very long to have learnt how Rockstar does these sort of things. All immaterial now because the snow is now gone so all the snow haters are going to have to find something else to complain about!

Just amazing that some folks are so bored that they have to complain about snow in a game! Simply solution: Don't like it then don't play it! Problem solved! Pretty sure there's nobody holding a gun to your head forcing you to play a game that you're clearly not happy to play!

They have every right to complain.
60€ for this game is a pretty good reason to say something out loud if you don't like. Especially about an additional, pointless update, such as the snow in Lemoyne or New Austin is.
This is not a Free to play game so you can go with your simple "don't play if you don't like".

Actually, for many it is a free to play game! Online mode is included FREE with a purchase of Red Dead Redemption 2, which many buy for the story and then later they might give Online a try. For those who buy Red Dead Online as a separate, stand-alone, purchase, yes, they've paid for the game. Before anyone says that Online isn't included free with RDR2, you might want to read the "About this game" section on it's Store page, second paragraph:

Now featuring additional Story Mode content and a fully-featured Photo Mode, Red Dead Redemption 2 also includes free access to the shared living world of Red Dead Online, where players take on an array of roles to carve their own unique path on the frontier as they track wanted criminals as a Bounty Hunter, create a business as a Trader, unearth exotic treasures as a Collector or run an underground distillery as a Moonshiner and much more.

But, and this is quite probably the biggest part of the whole "debate", nobody at Rockstar reads anything posted in the Steam Discussions, so nobody at Rockstar is ever going to read a single one of these complaints! Which makes posting all those complaints aimed at Rockstar somewhat pointless doesn't it?

Absolutely nobody is being forced to play the game (or any game for that matter) if they don't like the game, so, if you're not happy then simply stop playing! Contact Rockstar and tell them you're not happy, tell them your complaints, give them your feedback etc which can be done directly via their website:
https://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadonline/feedback

If you can't be bothered to do that, then why are you wasting your time by complaining here where Rockstar will never read your complaints?

As for the whole "it's not believable because it doesn't really snow in deserts" argument, newsflash folks, it's just a GAME, it's not real life!

complain about people complaining I guess then complain about people complaining about people complaining then complain about people complaining about people complaining about people complaining.

if it's irrelevant now why are you talking about it?

Seeing as you're the first person in this discussion to mention anything about something being irrelevant you might want to add a little more information so that everyone will know what you're talking about!
