I need to get a Hungarian White horse for a side mission. Where do I find one? It won't let me buy a deed to one either.

I also need to find some beavers but it won't let me go up north yet. Does a story mission unlock that area and if so how far into the game.

Thank you, friend.

 

[Dead Man]

Thank you, friend.

No worries. I found one a few times just NW of Casa Madrugada.

 

[criesofthepast]

What strange luck. Just found one on my way to Diez Coronas where the wiki says you can find them roaming. It was all the way over in Escalera though. Man, this horse feels so much better to me than my dumb as fuck Kentucky Saddler. I hate the Kentucky. Just doesn't feel right.

Hate that I have to give this Hungarian away but maybe I'll find a way to keep it.

Or I'll just find another one.

I know the Hungarian and the Kentucky are both 3 star horses but they feel different to me.

I hate the Kentucky. Just doesn't feel right.

Is it just me or does this horse control really badly? I thought the stick on my pad was giving up the ghost earlier :lol

:lol Nice one! I don't mind the Kentucky, I'm using it on my second playthrough. I prefer the Hungarian, especially with some Deadly Assassin, but the Kentucky works fine for me.

Man, five fingered fillet is terrible.

 

[Snuggles]

Yeah, I can't get the timing down for FFF, I wouldn't mind if they patched it to give us a little more leeway.

Liars Dice is probably my favorite mini game, there's something strangely addictive about it.

Anyone having trouble getting the end parts for some of the Stranger missions to appear?

The two main ones I've having an issue with right now are "California" and "Lights, Camera, Action." I completed the main component for each, but they keep being shown as "inactive" in my journal, and quite a few days of in-game time have passed.

I'd like to 100% the game, since I'm only about 6% away, but this is making it difficult.

Have you looked up those missions here?

Yup - went to the exact locations listed there during the night, during the day, and even during rain. Nothing shows up, so I'm at a loss of what to do.

 

[Anerythristic]

I know the Hungarian and the Kentucky are both 3 star horses but they feel different to me.

The Hungarian is a great horse. They all seem to handle ever so slightly different. I ride a wold caught Hungarian at the moment, tough as nails horse but still have to say my favorite is the Tersk.

 

[UrbanRats]

Anybody else tried the cheatcodes?
I've tried them for fun before and, i don't know if it's a bug or what, but the invincibility code, deactivate itself every time i enter in Deadeye mode.. the unlimited ammo code deactivate itself after a few seconds some times, while other times stays on(can't figure out what triggers it).
Since you can't save when you activate them, they are pretty much to fuck around and have fun, but it's actually annoying when they costantly deactivete themself.

Finally got this game yesterday. Simply amazing. The atmosphere is sublime and I'm loving the hunting aspects of the game. I'm definitely looking forward to DLC, whatever it brings.

Funny thing though, I didn't even know about Dead Eye until the storyline mission forces you to achieve Dead Eye Lv3. I had never used it until that point :lol

 

[flyinpiranha]

Still nothing from Amazon. No DLC stuff and no $20. I even emailed them 4 days ago and no reply.

Who does the voice of Landon Ricketts? I know him from somewhere...

He reminds me of Colonel Campbell from the Metal Gear Solid games, but I'm not sure it's him.

 

[VeryGooster]

Ross Hagen, who was in a bunch of western TV shows in the '60s like Bonanza, The Wild Wild West, Gunsmoke, etc.

I actually thought he was Paul Eiding too when he first spoke.

Both should appear after a few days. At least they did for me.

That's what I thought too. Also, the narrator in Crackdown.

Got my DLC 2 days after game shipped. Is it just the gold gun code? If yes, stupid because another code was inclided with the game. As for $20, got it 2 days ago. Already, spent it and $10 Alan Wake on NCAA Football 2011 for $29.

Are you implying there's been a time when Sam Elliot did NOT have a mustache?

Both, they said small quantities were arriving on Saturday morning and it was first come first serve.

Just a follow up to this, my friend travelled quite some distance today to a large Game store in Newtownards and they recieved a new shipment this morning...of only 11 copies. When he got there was a queue of 44 people! Madness.

I'm heading out early tomorrow to find a copy, wish me luck.

 

[Net_Wrecker]

Currently putting together my custom "Hunting Soundtrack" that I'll use when completing challenges and stuff for the rest of the game. Pure Morricone greatness.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Wow

The key for Five Finger Fillet is to turn down the volume and not look at the screen. Looking at the screen, even if you have it memorized, will just fuck you up.

I also need to find some beavers but it won't let me go up north yet. Does a story mission unlock that area and if so how far into the game.

For that mission I was able to keep the horse and still complete the mission.
After the mission, it auto saved. I tried to steal it so I got shot, and reloaded the game. The mission was complete but still got the horse

It seems people have figured out the best way to grind levels in free roam.

Spoiler

I am seeing a lot of people forming posses and doing solomon's folly over and over. I joined one posse and gained five levels fairly quickly since it works out to around 700-1200 xp for a minute run. Sometimes we finished the hideout in 45 seconds or so.

Now I know why there we so many high levels running around early in the game. Even though I hate grinding, I am not going to be able to resist and will probably just do the same, since it is fairly painless in this game.

Had it not been for that wiki link, I never would have known about the actual use for the Bandana.

I need to bring a bollard twin gang bounty alive for an outfit except that there aren't any posters up at all. According to the tracker I need to go to mc farlane ranch and pick up the quest there. Any help?

 

[flyinpiranha]

Yep, it's a bitch. Did you email them also? It said "... respond within 12 hours" but nothing.

Got my DLC 2 days after game shipped. Is it just the gold gun code? If yes, stupid because another code was inclided with the game. As for $20, got it 2 days ago. Already, spent it and $10 Alan Wake on NCAA Football 2011 for $29.

The guns don't really bother me, but I ordered 2 copies (one for a friend and one for me) and he's asked a couple times, nothing came in my game and I left his sealed when I sent it to him and since he's asked me I assume he didn't have it in his case either. The $20 (x2) is what I'm interested in as I'd like to order Alan Wake (hopefully it's still $49.99 when I get them).

Harvesting animals for resources is ridiculously profitable, and Bait is totally worth it.

Take out five Wolves or Deer in Quick Succession with Dead Eye, rinse and repeat.

Anyone know for sure? it would make sense:

Spoiler

him being satan/death is obvious once Marston tries to shoot him and nothing happens, he also mentions being the accountant etc... there are hints. It's also no coincidence that you last meeting is at Beecher's Hope, but I didn't see him in the shootout.

Thanks for that link to the wiki link to the horse info. That clears some things up. Sorta. I'm still confused.

Right now, maybe 8 hours in, my horse seems pretty slow. This is only noticeable on a bounty mission when I'm trying to get the perp back to town. The bad guys spawn behind me, and then pass me like was was standing still. I'm pretty much forced to repeatedly kill them. With a fast horse, would I be able to stay in front of them, or does the game alway rubber-band them past you?

The wiki says that that stallion that you tame in one of the early Bonnie missions is a Kentucky Saddler. Very fast. I rode that horse for a while. Hitched it, etc. But, it died eventually, and I guess I'm now just getting random horses now when I whistle? They don't look like the Saddler anymore, and like I said, don't seem very fast.

I don't have the option to buy any "fast" horse deeds in the store. Just slow ones and normal ones. Because I tamed the Saddler, shouldn't it be in the stores now? Do I have to go find one in the wild? Did Bonnie's stallion not count?

If your horse is out of stamina and their horses are fresh, they will go past you. There's no rubber band because I've outrun them by a big margin on a couple of occasions and they don't catch up. I THINK the option to buy the Kentucky Saddler was open after Bonnie's horse, but I never bought any of them so I'm not sure exactly when it unlocked. Find the black one(american standardbread or something) out of the top 3 horses, that one seems to be the fastest. I'm never below half way on the stamina with that thing. :lol

If it still seems slow, maybe you don't have the riding mechanics down well. Spurring the horse like crazy is a bad way to go.

The events following that are the best parts of the game, it's pure awesome from here on out.

not sure i understand the whole horse deed mechanic - if i buy a deed it goes in my inventory? and then i can use it as many times as i want to switch to that horse, or just once? and can you have multiple deeds in your inventory?

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Anyone have any tips for Liar's Dice? Do the other characters have tells like, you know, the actual game is based around?

Works forever and you can have multiple if you feel like switching it up.
