Well...I ran into two guys engaging in fisticuffs in the wild. So me being a good guy fired a warning shot to get them to disperse. One ran away, but the other had more deadly intentions for my intrusion. He reached into his holster, pulled out his six shooter and started to fire at me. Instantly I pulled out my rifle and put one between his eyes, netting me seven dollars, six bullets and -50 honor. :\

hitch them at hitching posts. They're usually found somewhere near stores and places you can rent/buy. On the 360 you'll get a Press X to Hitch type popup when you're near them.

So is there a way to get people to not run away from me when I save their ass?
Seriously, I've saved people from cougars and wolves, and then they thank me and then run away screaming. Same thing when I save somebody from being robbed.
Also, maybe it's just me but treasure hunting is hard! I still haven't found the place from the first treasure map yet.

Any tips at horseshoe? I am terrible at it and I want to win a game at the Ranch.
A few notable moments playing earlier:
- middle of the night i was sitting on my horse on top of a random plateau, pack of wolves comes for me. I unload my pistol into the pack, drop three of them, the rest turn tail and ran away. I set up camp, feeling like a man.
- Saw a woman running from wolves, screaming, i rode to her rescue, but accidentally shot her in the back when i aimed for a wolf. Couldn't let the body go to waste, so I looted it, and someone saw me and ratted me out to the cops. It made me really mad, i was trying to help the damn woman!
Really, this is the first game of 2010 i truly love. I've bought a lot of games this year, but haven't really gotten into any of them. Bioshock, FF, Mass Effect, etc... This is the first game this year i can just sit down and play for countless hours without getting bored.

Ah, gotcha ... I've only ever been to that place once and now going back for a quest, I'll probably have to sneak around :lol
Also, I find the weather to be pretty random, I've ridden in the rain a few times, no real thunderstorms outside of the one mission from the ranch early in the game though.

Anyone know where to find foxes? Looking for the tiny animals is pretty hard.

Yeah, I was about to check there next, I just was scouring the macFarlane Ranch area :lol
I like that they don't tell you specifically where it is, actually. It's a lot more fun this way.
I put some bait near the river, north of Hennigans Stead, when I was looking for Beavers, but it attracted Foxes instead. So try there I guess.Mr_Guillotine said:
Bait is pretty useful. I had Boar come out of nowhere when I used it once. First time I saw them in the game.

Just practice, it took me 7 games to finally get a ringer (and net that achievement) and when my wife asked me for help i got it for her on the first shoe i tossed :lol .
Its pretty easy once you get the hang of when to release and the power you toss it. Just practice it over and over.

Man, I friggin' hate how when you save at a campsite, it doesn't always start you back at the same location when you load. I'm looking for the 2nd treasure so I saved at a location on the treasure map, and when I reload I'm so far away and have to do a long ride back.
Does the upgraded campsite fix this, or is it just a limitation of the game?

Looks like Rockstar patched the invisibility bug already. How's the online now?

I'll try it, did it matter if it was night or day? Are the beavers part of a hunting mission?Dead said:

"Yesterday the developer promised a fix as soon as possible. That fix is now live, according to a Rockstar representative, who issued the following statement to Kotaku:
"We have just deployed a fix that should address the issues some people have been experiencing in Red Dead Redemption online multiplayer. This fix should address a specific issue that was found where the player's multiplayer avatar, their horse or their weapons would occasionally not be visible in multiplayer games as well as an issue that some players were experiencing where they would lose connection to the various multiplayer modes."

WTF? What's the excuse then for every other developer that takes 3 weeks to patch a glitch? Unless this was known about prior to release...

I think they may have known about the bugs and had the TU/Patch ready for submission. Either that or Rockstar has pull at certification because of the high profile title.

Sounds like it was the case and already in testing pre-release even though there has already been one update before this.
WOW. I'm blown away by the beauty of just riding in the desert as the sun sets. WOW
This game is awesome. It feels like San Andreas 2. Tons of shit to do, look at, and explore. And no pretentious douche in sight so far. What a game.
My one complaint is that pulling back on the stick should stop your horse. I do it instinctively and it just fucks me over.

Kohler tweeted something the other night about how there's MS Cert for readable button prompts and I feel Rockstar must have somehow gotten around that.Known Shippable said:

am i the only one who either screwed up or never got the initial treasure map sequence? i'm far along in the game now, & i've either blown it or can't seem to trigger it? does it always happen just west outside of bonnie's ranch?...

The Solomon's Folly Gang Hideout and the Walton's Gang Outfit do not need to be activated. Solomon's Folly should be available from the start after the first Ranch mission (you can ride there - it is in the southwestern part of New Austin near Plainview). To start the Walton's Gang outfit you just need to find a scrap by killing and looting one of the gang members.
