Yeah I gotta say I've really enjoyed Mexico. The characters other than 'LR' aren't that great but the missions were interesting and setting feels really quite different from New Austin.

I love the physics in this game.
I was returning a stolen wagon to a blue guy on the map and I was coming up on a tight curve on the path, and I was HAULING ASS around this curve, the wheel breaks and the ropes snap and marston goes flying off the wagon. I was cracking up so bad. :lol

100% completion! Such a fantastic game.
People have probably already complained about this in this thread but, I played Free Roam online with a friend for the first time yesterday and I was surprised to find that you can't play Poker. This seems like such a missed opportunity and I don't even get down with Poker that much.
Also, is there some way to save in Free Roam or is it done automatically. I only ask because whenever you leave a Free Roam lobby for another one it states "All unsaved progress will be lost".

I thought John could swim in this? Or at least a little bit. Really fucks the whole feel of the game when I just walked into a lake, the water touched my hat and I instantly died. I thought we were past that shit and I thought the claims he couldn't swim in this were wrong. I guess not. Seriously, not even a lake? I can understand a river, like make the current too strong or something but still, calm water kills him like a thousand bullets? Jesus Christ.

I think it's the best solution to the "blocking off areas" aspect of GTA games. And it makes sense, some people in the old west couldn't even read, much less swim.Darklord said:

Hey guys. Just started a little last night. Having a blast. Any 360 GAFers want to form a posse so I can knock out some of my achievements? Please add TheInquistor
Ran in to one of those "hey mister 2 prisoners escaped can you go catch 'em or kill 'em for me" missions. I started heading towards the first one but halfway there I heard some wolves howling and the mission updated to "get the remaining prisoner." Hahahaha sorry pal. :lol
I gotta say that I very much enjoyed the Mexico missions. The landscape gets kinda old after a while, but all the political conflict and the characters behind it were much more interesting than the motley crew you have to assemble in New Austin (tho I liked them as well, lots of great, sometimes offensive western comic relief archetypes).
Probably the part of the story I had the strongest reaction to so far (Mexico) was when

Luisa comes running up to you and gets promptly shot, and that asshole Reyes' totally apathetic reaction. At that moment I really wished the game would give you the option just to shoot the bastard.

Empty all the bullets out of whichever gun you are using except for one clip, save after you do this, in case you mess up and you can just reload your save. I did it with the Mauser pistol.

1) Choose your preference between the 15-bullet revolver or the 22-bullet repeater.uraldix said:
2) Empty out all your excess bullets for whichever gun you choose into the ground leaving you with only the bullets loaded into your gun (no auto-reload worries).
3) Pick your fortress battle, employ dead eye, disarm 6 guys (you can get multiple disarms from the same guy) and you can duck for cover, release L1 and all the normal stuff you normally do.
Easy win for Sharpshooter 10.

Sawed off shotgun at close range, then rush in and finish them off with the knife. The hard part is keeping them from dodging.JoeBoy101 said:

You can typically put 2-3 body shots in a cougar ( I used the Evans Repeater) and they slow down and sometimes retreat. Then it's just a matter of chasing them down with the knife.
This works for bears too, but use 3-4 shots.

Do throwing knives count as knife kills?
Just had my first truly crazy event happen that I've never seen anyone else talk about..I had just killed (Hunter Challenge Spoilers)
when a guy ran up to me screaming about some bandits threatening to kill his wife. I duly follow him being the Hero I am, expecting an easy task, but when we arrived at the camp it was truly in chaos..the mans wife was swinging like a pendulum from her noose as one massive bear absolutely mauled the shit out of her, then as I was about to dead eye the 3 bandits who had just seen me a second bear charges out of fucking nowhere and kills 2 of them. I manage to dead eye the last bandit, the rope and get one headshot onto the first bear before the other rammed me off my horse..after that I was a sitting duck and you can guess what happened. I became a Marston sandwich
Vengeance was soon mine however as I returned from my injury hiatus to

I had a similar experience recovering a shopkeeper's stolen wagon in Tall Trees. The wagon was parked, surrounded by bandits. As I survey the location, a bear takes out the guy peeing. A pack of bears swarms them (and me, after). I ended up with a pile of 5 dead bears and 5 dead bandits. I didn't touch one of them.
The Lamonster said:
Yeah, at least in RDR Rockstar has some sort of a scapegoat to explain why you can't swim (because, as you said, many people didn't know how to back then) unlike in GTA when there really was no in-game explanation at all :lol
Part of me really hopes in future DLC we get the ability to rob banks, or at least the game adds banks that are being robbed and you have option to try and stop'em as one of the random world events.

Can someone explain the MP to me.
I played for about 10 minutes of free roam, but it was really bad.
I know there is quality to be had here, but i just dont know where to find it.
Any help?

My favorite moment in the game so far:
Lassoing and hogtying some dude who wouldn't give me something (you know who I mean) and setting him down in front of the train at Mercer Station.
I then thought... wait, my horse was witness to this and he know damn well who I am, regardless of this bandanna.
So I lassoed my horse and dragged him across the track at just the right time and BLAM! NOTHING BUT GIBS! He's on fire!

Any tips on shooting hats off, then disarming within 3 seconds? I could've sworn I did this multiple times in Pike's Basin, but never got credit. I'll even use the sniper rifle to get some pinpoint accuracy and still can't do it.KAOz said:

One thing that I was hoping for was for R* to meld this in the GTA universe. They mention Manhattan and NYC plenty of times throughout the game but they don't refer to those places as Liberty City. Oh well, I thought it would add a little bit to the entire universe thats all.
Just like any open world game, it's all about roaming with your friends. Get your friends together and pull some hi-jinks like everyone riding together inside of a horse drawn carriage, trying to kill people along the way.Drealmcc0y said:

Posse up with a few people, preferably fun people. Start some gang hideouts. They're surprisingly fun scenarios that might last 3 to 5 minutes. Take a break, ride past some other posse to see if they shoot at you. If they do, wipe them out mercilessly for the next 10 minutes. Settle the score with a multiplayer match. Try another few gang hideouts...Drealmcc0y said:
Btw, your low level character has shit firearms, a shit mount, and tends to get taken out all the time. Wait until you're at least level 14 before you make a judgment.

"I Know You" spoilers below..
I don't know if there's closure on that (doubt it), for I haven't gotten much further from that yet, but my guess is that it's John's conscience messing with him. It's him, trying to steer himself in the path of good... hence the reason the man mentioned names of people John has killed that he didn't even remember. The killing had become second nature...
My friend thought it was god, because of the closing conversation ("damn you" "yes, some people have"), but I have a hard time believing god came to earth just to sway someone from having sex with a hooker and to give some missionaries some money.

EDIT: Regarding the 2 Cougar Knife kills challenge.. All you have to do is swing wildly with the knife when a cougar is running towards you and you'll most likely kill it if you keep swinging. I killed both cougars I needed for the challenge at almost the same time that way. :lol

It's odd they would compare Armadillo to Manhattan anyway. That's like comparing Chicago to San Andreas. Why would you take away from the immersion of a video game by forcing you to remember you're in a fake-ass world?Host Samurai said:
