Why doesn't R* care?

[Hax]

If they updated and payed attention to the community's needs, they would make more moolah. Come on, give us an option to remove the satchel, hide knife sheath, change off-hand holster position, and remove the offhand holster. These things are 100% cosmetic. They could even take away your second sidearm if you hide the off-hand. It's not that hard, you're a AAA game company.

I hate to say it, but it's because they already made mega-bucks on this game and they just don't care about it or us anymore. We walked into the trap.

My new criteria for gaming designers is...

1. Be very wary of needing a separate loader to play game. I thought Steam was a game loader but Rockstar requires their own launcher and it doesn't even work right.

2. Any company who released a game in only 1 console, but neglected to include the PC platform. PC's are one of the biggest reasons for the success of gaming programs. I am still angered that I cannot experience RDR1 for myself because they said **** *** PC Gaming Community!!

3. Reading massive complaints about the lack of support with the product!!

4. Rockstar has allowed cheaters to run rampant on their MP online platform. Modding and cheating online has always been the biggest No No in the Gaming Universe. Not only have they allowed it to happen, they ultimately refuse to issue bans or punishments. That was one of the biggest reasons for their Rockstar game launcher... So they could freeze and Ban anyones account who utilized mods, hacks or cheats! But the cheaters rule the Rockstar online RDR2 World.

And there you have it... We're screwed and stuck!!!

Sadly, all of these things are 100% true. They put 200% more effort into online and still update it whilst allowing hackers to destroy the game.

If only R* would put the same effort into story mode :(

With Rockstar's current focus on releasing/supporting GTA6, I doubt RDR2 or Red Dead Online will ever receive another meaningful update. :(

It's a shame, because this game had a lot of potential.

Here's hoping Rockstar/Take-Two doesn't "drop-the-ball" on their next online world, and let it get saturated by cheaters again. :/

lol, a text-chat option for PC would also be nice. :P

They care about GTA online more than GTA6 at this point.

It probably has to do with them becoming absurdly rich from GTA V and then being told by everyone that RDR 2 was the BEST GAME EVER MADE!!!!! Video game development is really annoying and if those things happened to me I'd probably retire also.

Totally agree. But, I never really cared much for online so it didn't affect me... But now they've gone and broken Story mode with the last couple of updates!

Basically, 1.00 was the best version, and R* ruined it by updating it and making everything worse. For instance, John's gloves and pants. The gloves used to fit, and the pants didn't look like bell-bottoms. Facial animations were better as well.

[Hax]

There was a LOT more than just these simple things. Look up "Red Dead Redemption 2 1.00 vs now"

[T9]

Oh ok, didn't know

[devnblack]

Unfortunately they don't. They sunsetted RDR online ages ago. Modding is the best option to get what you want and even then it's far from perfect.

understand what your saying completely. Theres this awesome game here still sitting in the bottom of the toilet. Theres about 200 different things they could do to inject some life into this game but theyve abandoned it. First thing that could be done is put this game on actual servers and even hire a game server hosting company to put their game out there for rent on actual private servers where the user would run and maintain it with admin abillities. Theres hundreds of game that already do this. Devs would get a huge cut of $ off that alone. They could incorporaate anti-cheats. They could make a quality of like update and do simple bug fixes and completely remove the fog that NO ONE LIKES OR EVER WANTED.But most importantly add anti-cheat and police the hackers indefinetly. They can add more than 10 weapons....lol. More horses. Theres a mountain of wasted potential that will never come to frution because they refuse to do anything else on this game. hell they could sell the red dead franchise to a company that would actually continue to develop it and make hella bank today. And in the same process clear a few stains off thier reputation for having non-exestant cs. But...thats never gonna happen

And whats more after you have all the roles unlocked there is almost nothing to do with your gold bars and $$. The content is just too short and shallow. After a little while this game sux its only good for interacting with your real life friends, Cuz like i said there will not be anything new added to this game. R* themselve pretty much said a long time ago that theyre done developing this.

Sheesh, you made some very good points there. R* could be so much richer if they cared lmaooo
