I haven't seen anyone talk about this little tip. Hunting - to always get a perfect pelt use your lasso and then use your knife. Up close and personal.
Ya you can do that, but you can't do it to all animals. The best way to hunt is to use the recommended weapon it not hard or time consuming once you understand how to hunt. Though when it comes to turtles, frogs and some small birds do not use small game arrows, use regular instead.
E Dubbz it always gives perfect pelts. I've tested it extensively. You only get good pelts if your hunting a Good animal. But as someone said earlier it only works on big game excluding bison and not small animal's
Making a camp while travelling a road will almost always teleport you to remote patches of land with loads of herbs nearby. Instead of searching the landscape, make camp and search for herbs near your camp site.
Also, if you've spent ages climbing up to some remote spot for some reward, just set a camp when you're in the remote spot and the game will teleport you to a much handier location
Personally hate that aspect of the game,when I save I want to be where I saved when I reenter the game,same with camping,I want to camp where I choose,and don't want to end up a mile away.
For me the best hint I didn't know is that you can tell if a horse is agitated or relaxed by the way its ears are positioned. This helps when stealing loot from a saddle bag.
How will the ears look? I’m tired of getting kicked.. when the Pinkerton a came to the mansion after coming from guarma the horse kept kicking me so I stabbed him and he never died so I just left
I really coulda used this info last night haha. I found some o Driscolls harrasing a poor soul in valentine and I took em out. But their horse kicked me in the face when I tried looting. Hurt like hell.
Also works in real life, flat ears against skull is angry or scared, ears forward is happy and focusing, if you are talking to a horse they will usually flick theirs ears back to indicate they are paying attention to you 🙂
I'm kinda new and steal from saddlebags all the time . You can calm and pet the horse a few times before you attempt to rummage through the saddlebags . That helps. Remember too you can loot both sides of the horse .
Even when I calm a horse several times, even to the point of being able to ride it so many still kick me. It's driving me crazy as it feels like the game broke itself as it used to work after 4-5 pats/calms but now? All horses except mine hate me :(
You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute. Hence the expression, "as greedy as a pig."
Also, if you lay out the bait and just stay there you can have a little wrestling match with the bear. Turns out I wasn't a very good wrestler when I did this the first time.
Bait doesn't work for me, at least not with big predators. I've found perfect hunting spots for cougars, grizzlies and panthers, but it's location for grizzlies, location plus time of day for cougars and location/time/dead animals as bait for panthers that works for me. I can use predator bait to pull pigs/foxes that attract panthers and/or herbivore bait for deer to do the same. Or just run around Old Harry Fen like an idiot between 2 and 5 and a panther will find you fast. Or between the rape shack and the pond the wildlife photographer uses you as 'gator bait in.
You can have ur main horse and ur temp. Then lasso one of the spare horse from camp and you got room for 3 big animals and 30 pelts. I think u can only fit 10 pelts per horse
During the Hosea mission when you unlock the fence, the house you’re robbing has a lot of money in the chimney. Also, if you do it at nighttime, you can threaten the sleeping man upstairs and he’ll reveal another hidden stash under his bed. The amount of money you get to keep from that mission is somewhere around $500, that along with the gold bar in the limpany sheriff’s office should get you well on your way to being rich
Not really a gameplay tip because it’s not used for anything other than to look cool - but if you double tap L1 to put away your revolver into your main hip holster, Arthur does a neat little gun flip.
I’m sure this has been mentioned, but stirrups aren’t the only way to increase speed of the horse. Always accept the races from NPC’s in the world, the first reward is 2x the bonding speed and the second is increasing the speed of any horse you ride by one pip.
I broke racing. I had my clunky war-horse at the start and couldn't go 5 minutes in the world without a request for a race. After 3 successive refusals, I've never been asked since the first days' play. About 400hrs in now and never had a race or seen that guy since day 1.
Wtf, horse races? Played at least 150hrs in story mode, hadn't one offer to race... Only fuckin Mexicans which shot way better than I did - they paid anyway.
Not seen anybody on TH-cam mention the ‘Legend of the East Satchel’ yet. It’s well worth crafting it as early as possible because it lets you store up to 99 of each item!! It’s easily the best piece of equipment in the game! Bit of a grind but soooo worth it
@@zachallen8640 Not sure WTF you mean by "off the rip" I'm still on Chapter 3 as I don't want the fun to end and haven't yet completed the Satchel but am still working on it. So "go rip one yourself" I guess is the correct response.
@@onephatkatt you're clearly an idiot, so let me ATTEMPT to get some advice through to you: If you don't know "wtf" something is, then you probably shouldn't comment, judge, or try to assert some phantom dominance in an online comment thread, about it. Much less use it in your own context... We also clearly have pretty close to the same opinion, as I am also still chapter 3, loving it, and straight fuckin hoardin with my new F.E.S. Chill out. Peace.
Doing the chores around camp (chopping wood, moving hay bales, etc) nets you +5 deadeye for each one. This is extremely useful early in the game to boost your dead eye -- they are shown as small black dots on the map.
@@NomdePlume337 That's so funny cus that's exactly how I found out about the deadeye boost -- I was like these hay bales aren't going to move themselves, better pull my weight around here otherwise I might catch flak around the campfire!
@@funkalicious02 at the start of every day, I’d do Arthur’s hair, change his clothes, have a coffee, do all the camp chores, eat Pearson’s breakfast and then finally go out and play the game lol
I don't know if this helps but I was hunting and killed a perfect buck in the lake and I couldn't retrieve it cause it was too deep into the water, so I lassoed it and was able to get it to shore and skin it.
@@garrysmith1029 although it was more realistic when I did lasso the dead buck cause in real life you could lasso a dead animal in a river if you wanted to.
@@chainshishd9127 yeah that's real life. But I have an old version I bough over a year ago but right now I'm playing on my cousin's updates version. Did you know you can ask for a ride to town?
Fun fact: chimneys aren’t the only things that hide loot. Loose floorboards/bricks, etc... also hide loot. Just wander around slowly and rub up against walls and a prompt to open the hidden cache should appear.
Npc 1-“Didn’t that guy just steal a horse, murder a crowd of people, rob a stagecoach and feed a body to pigs?” Npc2-“yeah,but he said hello to me and the misses so he’s a pretty swell guy” -rockstar logic
Npc 1 -“Didn’t that man kill half the town, slaughter the animals, and pistol whip one of our lawmen?” Npc 2 -“yeah, but he went fishing for an hour and released every fish he caught, so we forgave em.” Npc 1 -“Bill he just killed your wife and ran over your dog” Npc 2 -“The misses was a bitch, and my dog respawned the next day.”
Use dead eye to skip reloading. For example when you dual wield and shot all your bullets, go into dead eye even for a split second it’ll restore all your bullets without reloading
Here's one I found really useful. When Im about to get into a fist fight I simply pull out my pistol, don't target with the left trigger just hit the right trigger. Arthur will block any punch thrown and will hit them twice with the pistol and boom fights over. This comes in useful more when you antagonize people and it starts a fight. I am unsure if it works on fights with some cut scenes like the big guy in Valentine you fight in the street.
I once did this, knocked both of my guns to the ground and I later couldn’t pick them up because 100 people were hunting me and they were mixed on the ground with other guns.
Not every chimney hides stuff. I've found a few that didn't. Also the horse whistles are different. One tap means to follow but slow, 2 taps means hurry up, 3 taps means get here now.
@@iainjames03 listen again, Scott says loads the first time but then says "every house you can break into that has a chimney will be hiding something inside." he did too say every.
9:10 "every house with a chimney will be hiding something" I think you meant, a total of three of the chimneys in the entire game are hiding something in them
If you have your main and temp horse with you, you could break a third w/o bonding and use your lasso to lead it from your main horse. Use this method to carry 3 carcasses and more skins at a horse's speed, much faster than carrying the third yourself. More fun in cinematic view too
If your horse is totally bonded and when you get that third horse..if you ride it around long enough that it becomes your temp ..but the bonded one that isn't your horse anymore will follow and come to you until a screen transition..meaning like fast travel..
Anyone else drink the mysterious liquid from the cauldron in the shrine/temple in the woods? I woke up later in a different place, still had all my money, not sure about my chastity.
@@chrisdouglas5020, no, they really aren't. people have poured over literally every line of code in that game that's of any meaning. not to mention the game was fucking surface deep to begin with. Bethesda hasn't been making truly detailed worlds for over a decade now....
You can draw into deadeye from eagle eye as well. If rivals block the road activate eagle eye and that will slow time before you gently hold the trigger and draw into deadeye

In chapter 2, you can get a white Arabian up near lake Isabella on the northwestern side. You just have to tame it and you have a good horse for free! You can sell her at the horse fence with level 4 bonding for $360 or at the stable for $240. You can also keep her for the whole game! A very good horse for the cost of a few bullets max. Hope this helped someone! :D
I tried jumping on my horse from the top of a train once because firstly, why wouldn't I, and secondly because I knew you could jump on your horse in the previous game. I missed and almost died, haven't tried it since. Good to know it's still a thing though.
Cigarette cards can be found and bought in Premium Cigarette packs. Make sure to always discard the packs as soon as you pick em up, so the inventory won't be full.
Not sure if anyone mentioned this, but if you get the final satchel that increases everything greatly and stock up on as many potent snake oils as you can, you can use as many as you like during any mission and it won’t count against any gold requirements
Lol that's how TH-cam decided to make it so you only get paid if you get 10min or more of viewership on each video. That's why so many 2 or 3 year old videos are 10-12 minutes long.
Don't know if this is anything new but if you "calm" your horse while galloping (Pressing L3) it will bring back some of your horse's used stamina. You can do this about every 20 seconds or so, mix this with pressing X for syncronized galloping and you'll not have to worry about exhausting your horse's stamina.
Getting off on the wrong side from your horse can be bothersome sometimes (least to me all the time). Simply move your left stick of your controller to the side you wanna get off while also pressing 'Y'.
There are horse races in the game. If you race a guy and beat him multiple times you gain the ability to bond with your horse by using your spurs. If you race the woman and beat her multiple times you gain a permanent bonus to speed to whatever horse you're using.
I raced the guy near Van Horn and I ran across the lady near the camp in chapter 3, but I was in a hurry to get to camp with a perfect carcass so I didn't have time to stop and race her, will she pop up again?
Every RDR2 video with hunting as a topic there is someone suggesting the "so easy" wagon hunting method. Every single time I have tried using a wagon on a hunt, I have had immense difficulty just dropping corpses into the stolen wagon because of how high up the lip of the wagon is and you can't climb while carrying something. I have tried climbing into the wagon and then lassoing the corpse, but you don't have enough space in the wagon to drag it "up and into it," climbing out of the wagon while the corpse is lasso'd and attempting to drag the corpse over the top of the wagon from the other side does not work, either (which is surprising, the lasso has good pulley-like physics when dangling someone over bridge beams for example). The only thing that has ever worked for me with this "method" was to painstakingly move and then LEAVE the wagon near a cliff edge where I could still walk up the slope carrying something but have enough height to drop into the wagon. But this approach requires either never leaving the hunting spot/making huge backtracks to where the wagon is or to constantly look for the next accessible cliff edge when moving it- and no matter what it is extremely slow, frustrating, and tedious. Best part? Once you finally get to this point you will realize how janky and risky it is to actually drive a wagon with loose corpses BUGGING OUT over collision physics from it moving. One weird slope and all your "cargo" could fall out or cease to exist, or if you die then you could lose everything not turned in, anyway. God forbid you don't run into other hunt-ruining issues, like damaging your wagon just enough to lose one of the horses and now you can only go 1/10th the speed... TL;DR: Hunting with a wagon is straight up not worth the time and frustration it is supposed to save, and IMO it actually makes hunting take WAY MORE time and frustration than ever (making it actually the LEAST efficient way to hunt) AND it is the easiest way to end up losing 2+ corpses and a bunch of time. Honestly just loading up one horse and fast traveling works really well for several things while hunting: the time skips helps grow the hair out fast (take hair tonic before long fast travels/sleeps for Max effect), helps animal(s) you just hunted to respawn (usually needs around 30 in-game hours max), allows money at camp to passively generate quickly, and allows you frequent short breaks to eat some snack or take a swig of drink which helps keep the hunting session chill and fun. From there, if you feel that you really NEED to bring two corpses on a trip back (or a corpse and a large pelt), an unskinned animal can be dragged via lasso from horseback without damaging it's quality, and for a third you can do the double horse trick- but this can still honestly be more trouble than what it is worth.
I always used 2 horses, but never really had a problem with the time it takes to get to a trader. If you're in any kind of rushing mood, you're playing the wrong game.
I really wish I could use carts in the game (as a mechanic). I'd love to go on a moose/bear/elk spree and load the cart up. Fun fact: ravens will often fight a bear over a carcass. The same interaction can be found with bear/wolves. Grizzly vs black. Etc, etc. That'd be a sweet mechanic to see in the game. Wildlife resource competition.
There was a person hanging from a tree, so when I shot it down I heard a whoop and all these pale ass ghosts came and attacked me so quick I died before I knew what happened. Somewhere slightly north of Rhodes.
They're the Nite Folk. They have a quest involving them. And it's white face paint smeared on their face, they arent ghosts. Just really creepy hillbilly dudes.
@@memberberries9782 and bows and arrows. They're great to loot their bodies in order to stock up on arrows... if your running low... in the swamp... but only at night because that's when they come out. Yah better to just restock at camp or in town actually.
Not every house with a chimney has loot inside of said chimney. I don't know for sure but I've been in houses with unlit fireplaces, that don't have any loot inside them
likewise some chimneys not a part of houses have loot as well or loose floorboards as well. I just randomly hit a house with a stash under the floor and just a random chimney left standing as the rest of the building was ruins out around beaver creek
When I first started with RDR2 I found the hunting minigames were far too involved, but nowadays it's literally one of my fav parts of the game once I figured out all the minor mechanisms. So now I know what those stars mean when you're scoping out your next kill, meaning I don't waste bullets and time skinning something worth nothing and going all the way to a trapper only to find the skin is no good anyway. So now when I start a new game file, I prefer to take all perfect carcasses / pelts / feathers etc to Pearson for the satchel upgrades and camp deco, after all those are done I then take them to the trapper along with legendary animal skins for all the trapper clothes. As for any crap quality animals, I alternate between taking those to Pearson for camp food supplies (one star quality) or to the butcher for extra cash (2 star quality) Cash I use to buy / top up supplies / ammo, any extra money I use on buying Premium Ciggies to get all the ciggie cards, recently finished getting all the cards and collected a gold mine of valuables. Also love how other parts of the animal are utilized (animal fat for explosive ammo, which helps on all the missions where you need to deal with dozens of pesky enemies, its one shot one kill) and the Oleander Sage used to make poisoned arrows is great for instant kills on bears and legendary animals I love actual hunting but finding the time to drive out to Bathurst to my mates property to do some shooting is hard so this is the closest thing to hunting for me most of the time, sadly. But as I said, used to think it was a bit too much but now can do this for hours without really advancing the plot of the game
I hope I get as good/passionate about hunting in this game as you are. I only just recently started it (about 2 weeks ago) and while I absolutely love exploring and mystery hunting, I find animal hunting to be such a damn nuisance lmao. I usually just ride through the wilderness whenever I'm on my way to Horseshoe Overlook, shoot at whatever moves with my shotgun and then bring it to Pearson so the camp has some food. No regard for any quality whatsoever. 😂😂
Sounds like a 'duuuuhh' moment maybe but I just found out; Use the track sense for looting places. I find looting all little items in places hard because it's hard to see (or use first person) but with the sense they highlight.
Recently discovered if you take a perfect carcass to the trapper, no matter the star rating, the pelt will count as perfect like a 3 star. Use the proper weapon for the animal, dont skin it. Load it on your horse and take it to any trapper location. I've take 1 star cougars, snakes, deer, opposums, muskrats..ect. and they count as perfect. Took me almost 3 years and like 6 playthroughs to discover this.
This is 2 years later than your comment. I'm on my 4th playthrough and have looked up so much info on this game and never once discovered this. I'm about to work through the Legend satchel and this will be sooo valuable. Going to try this after work tonight. Thanks man, you just saved me a ton of time.
I’ve tried the multiple horse thing several times. After a while the two non main horses get familiar or something and one stops following you. Just out of the blue. If you do this I recommend putting the most important carcasses ae. (Legendary or perfect pelts) on your main horse.
You can also add 2 birds as well as an animal carcass to your horse. The birds clip on the sides of your horse, the deer (or whatever else) goes on the back (and you can stow pelts under the animal you’ve killed on the back :) hope this helps
To anyone who didn’t know you can get a black Arabian in chapter 2 step 1: go to Saint Denis and make sure it’s night step 2: there might be a chance encounter near the gunsmith were a couple is getting robbed step 3: look up and down the street and there should be a black Arabian.
@@fattyMcGee97 It doesn't have the best stats. While it is a good horse it is the worst of the Arabian horses you can get. The biggest down side to Arabians is that they are skittish and will buck you if you don't keep predators at a distance.
@@Buckeyeguy9 From my research (and feel free to do your own) the top 3 are Turkoman, Missouri Fox Trotter, and Arabian. Each for different reasons, as you can imagine. Turkoman (my fav) is liked because it is an all-arounder with great health, bravery, and the second fastest speed value of 6 (7 otherwise is top). Downside is that they are few and expensive. Missouri Fox Trotter is a staple race horse but has low health. They have moderate bravery too. Arabian has best overall stats BUT the lowest bravery so a lot of people don't like them for this reason. I usually try to have one or two of each. All that said, in story on PC there are 3 free Arabians you can get right away! Turkoman took the longest for me to get. You can also find their stats online pretty easy if you want more details.
Haven't seen it mentioned but tapping R1 when casting during fishing will make a short cast. Helpful when fishing from a boat or closing the distance initially on a difficult fish.
@@Chrome2105 dude this game is just another gta/rdr with better graphics. the story is cliche, the missions are cliche and repetetive, the outcome is already known and explained in rdr1 and even people who havent played it looked the game up on youtube and all knew about it. that makes this game dlc. dont even get me started on the outdated scripts and scripted events this game has. or the repetetive npc's. you meet every random encounter 2-4 times. dafuq? what a cheesy cheap ass cliche of a game. get scammed son.
I had the lowest honor in this game but as I progressed with the story and started really getting into the character of Arthur Morgan, I started raising my honor for his sake
If you view the compendium in the “progress” section of the pause menu, it will tell you which weapon or bullet/arrow type is best for each animal. As long as you have studied the animal and it has been added to the compendium. P.s does anyone actually know if there’s a limit on how many pelts you can have on horseback? Thanks 👍🏽
@@mr.sltrskid Me too, never played online mode. Played trough the RD2 about 22 times the last year 🙈 love this game, the best game i've ever played and i've playd since the 80's.
You can't have two extra horses following you unless you have at least two stalls in the stable open. I was recently trying to figure out why this trick wasn't working all the time, and then I figured out that it was because my stable was full. It helps a lot with hunting though! Wagons are a different story; they can be a pain.
Rockstar is one of the very few developers that always delivering quality games with a lot of attention for detailed graphics and always fun gameplay and it shouldn’t surprise me that there are a lot more gameplay tricks.Programming an believable open “living”world must be very difficult. There is one thing in the game industry that I never understood and that is the pricing of games,anything you buy is priced around quality and/or playtime,graphically style but for some strange reason are most of the game releases priced the same for example when a cash-in game is released a long side some movie you pay the same price for it like Red Dead Redemption II while the simple movie game is made in a short time while on the other side RDD II was years in development and they delivered a fantastic game experience I am very curious what the next Rockstar game will be.
Now I know it's been a year since the video's out. But I'm leaving this info here for any new players. You prolly know about the fast travel thingy (trains and coaches) but do you know that auto-drive / auto-navigate exists in-game too? Just place a marker at your destination and then ride on. As your horse rides smoothly on, quickly press the cinematic button and activate the cinematic view. Your horse will go on auto-drive mode. Been using this after every train heist, which usually ends up placing me deep in the mountains (due to the good tradition of train-tunnel heist method). As my trusty steed brings me down from the mountain and straight to closest town, I go on to get a cuppa coffee or take a leak in the toilet irl.
@@juliamartinez9392 you can just let the horse walk on first. When cinematic view kicks in and she's still walking on, auto drive is already engaged. Let go and then tap x (not hold x) to speed up. Don't speed up too much as it reduces time for your horse to react to oncoming traffic and steep turns.
Thank u so much this is the 2nd time i hear this advice im new to the game but when i tried the cinematic it didnt work what button should i press on my ps4?
I was eating a sandwich while letting the horse run in cinematic autopilot, and as I rode past a parked wagon, it EXPLODED! Arthur landed on his head (how he survives doing that several times a week, I don't know), the horse ran off, and I was attacked by a squad of Lemoyne Raiders. Apparently it was a planned ambush. By the time I got my hands back on the controller, Arthur was dead again.
Wow, I’ve had this game a whole week now. I just found out I literally know absolutely nothing. Granted it’s my first PC in two decades and my first game in about as long. But wow. What value. So much more to do than I even expected.
you can camp/sleep around In wilderness areas in states which you hold a bounty. Upon waking from sleep a pack of 4 or more bounty hunters attack you. They drop decent loot, you will not raise the dollar amount of your bounty for killing bounty hunters (not lawmen). You also do not lose honor for killing bounty hunters but you will once you loot them (can be reversed by talking to random townspeople)
Ahhh, the horse whistle trick will be priceless for me from now on! I had no idea there was a difference, just thought my horse was a belligerent dumbass! 😏
This might be a dumb tip but in-case anyone missed this, there are two types of skinned pelts in the game. The big rolled up kind mostly from (Bears, Moose, Elks, Ox etc...) and the smaller version which when stowed on your horse gets spread like a blanket (Deer pelt, boar pelt, panther etc...) you can stack the smaller pelts on top of each other and then stow 1 additional big pelt. This blew my mind when i realized this since i was going back and forth having 2 additional horses following me while grinding for pelts.
Great stuff. I went up to EVERY chimney in every house though and found not a single thing inside any of them. I figured the reason that the character in that early mission said, "People often leave their valuables up there" was to tell us to always look. But I never found anything in another chimney.
Been playing this for days. Watched countless videos. And you guys still taught me some new things. Great Red Dead content from this channel so far. Good job guys.
Hosea always was the "good Angel" on Dutche's shoulder. With him gone, Dutch succumbed to his darker side. At least that was the impression I got when I first played the game.
Tip: you can fast travel when you set up a camp in the wilderness. So do not use the stagecoach because you will have to pay them to take you to your destination. Fast traveling with your camp is free. You will also be able to go to more places like the wapiti Indian reservation and braithwaite manor.
Along with number 4, I wish they had done a hair bit more with wagons. Buying different types, limbering them up with horses, and commiting inventory to them. Itd make "trading" into a legit enterprise and open up options for having a small satellite camp in a remote part of the map.
Liked and subscribed!! Also, one little tip and carryover from red dead 1, when you are hunting on horseback and kill an animal..don't get off and run up to it to skin it. Ride your horse right up along side of it as close as possible, then get off right on top of it,and hit the "skin" button. Skinning will be instant,instead of waiting 20 or so seconds for him to finish...
Full pressing the right trigger when facing opponents in a firefight allows you to use auto-targeted hip shots to quickly engage enemies without having use your left trigger aimlock. Really helpful for taking on multiple opponents at close range
If you LIGHTLY hold down the RT/L2 button, you will aim from the hip. This works best with the sawn-off shotgun, it looks really cool because Arthur will actually hold it with two hands instead of holding it with one hand like he does when you aim normally. It looks more realistic.
Thank you for this. Really helpful. Just got the game and it probably would have taken a long time to realise these things. My main problem is that the game is so beautiful graphically that I find myself wasting too much time looking around lol. It's going to take me years to finish this game at this rate. Haha.
I don't want the damn dogs to come running to me whenever I come to the area... That's a surefire way to piss off an entire city or town and get a huge bounty in my experience. In the real world if I run over someones dog, it's not even a civil penalty, if I'm a good person, I'll try to notify them, and in most cases people just assume it got loose, and do nothing but feel guilty and drive on. In RDR2 dogs are sacred animals worthy of sacrificing an entire town or at least ones own life for, if you accidentally hit a dog on a trail, even if you don't kill it, you can fully expect the owner to pull out his rifle and begin shooting to kill, because apparently in the midwest during this time animal battery comes with an impromptu death penalty. In a city, it's a whole new level, and you realize precisely how sacred dogs really are. I have accidentally ran over a person in a city committing murder, you get witnesses, but practically no one pulls a gun and starts shooting. But a dog... Oh no not the damn dog... You run over a dog, and the guns come flying out faster then you know what is happening, and all the gunfire seems to immediately notify the local authorities... Dogs are gods in this game... And dogs are also really stupid and will run right in front of your horse at a full gallop if they like you... So... Don't let the dogs like you... Best you keep far away from them and they far away from you...
Gavin is undoubtedly in Red Dead Redemption 3. So we’ll see him in 2027. The Mad Preacher is probably just Dutch from the future still working on his plan.
Dealing with Nite Folk Master tip: -Use a shotgun, the semi-auto is the best but all work well. -Don’t stop to shoot down the hanged dead body by the side of the road, you’ll just trigger an ambush. But most importantly, if you hear a woman crying nearby in the swamp don’t go near, it’s probably the biggest Nite Folk ambush you’ll ever see and definitely the creepiest.
Those are some of the best creepiest encounters. How have people died with these encounters lol. You literally have the ability to slow time, pan the camera, change 1st to 3rd person perspective etc. The majority of my deaths, which still have been few, have been falling from a mountain top, drowning, or something dumb like that. I think I died in an ambush and or gun fight twice early on in during chapter 2 or 3.
If you place a waypoint then enter the cinematic mode and just hold A or X depending the systems your horse will B-line to the waypoint using the road your are on
@@geoffrogue3049 Or worst you get crushed by a moving train along with your horse. Had it happen to me and i lost my damn horse had to restart from my last save damnit.
So the dead eye slow trigger pull works at any time? Then push RB to tag and then what? Re-push RT? Or were we not supposed to ever release the RT? After tagging how do you get it to shoot all the tags?
I can only have two horses at a time, not three. Also a good tip when shooting small game use the varmint rifle and buck trinket; your 3-stars will drop to 2-stars, but with the buck trinket when you pick up it will go back to 3-stars. No need to waste small game arrows.
You can go get a white Arabian horse (one of the best horses in the game) at the north west corner of the map as early as chapter 2 and it’s really helpful. Also you should find out the location of gold bars because they go for $500 each with make the early game so much easier.
Lol did you stop to help people at all?? Seemed to be a big thing where people were saying this but weren't. Stopping to help someone in trouble just flying through the area
@5:20 not sure i follow you correctly about filling all those blocks white. But that would ve possible, i mean that would make the diffefemce between weapons non existing. You can not get all bars full white on every gun
You can only hold 5 plain venison for example, but each flavored meat is a different item type. you can hold 5 oregano thyme and mint dishes all at the same time as well

I haven't seen anyone talk about this little tip. Hunting - to always get a perfect pelt use your lasso and then use your knife. Up close and personal.
The Crazed gamer That’s how I steal livestock pelts and hides.
Ya you can do that, but you can't do it to all animals. The best way to hunt is to use the recommended weapon it not hard or time consuming once you understand how to hunt. Though when it comes to turtles, frogs and some small birds do not use small game arrows, use regular instead.
Nice tip, I'm certainly gonna try it
It usually gives good pelts, not perfect
E Dubbz it always gives perfect pelts. I've tested it extensively. You only get good pelts if your hunting a Good animal. But as someone said earlier it only works on big game excluding bison and not small animal's
Whistle a few times to stop them from stealing my horse? Yeaaah no they’re getting shot the f*** up lol
Have recorded a few people getting executed when this happens best thing
Hogtie and railroad tracks are my preference.

Making a camp while travelling a road will almost always teleport you to remote patches of land with loads of herbs nearby. Instead of searching the landscape, make camp and search for herbs near your camp site.
Useful
Also, if you've spent ages climbing up to some remote spot for some reward, just set a camp when you're in the remote spot and the game will teleport you to a much handier location
Personally hate that aspect of the game,when I save I want to be where I saved when I reenter the game,same with camping,I want to camp where I choose,and don't want to end up a mile away.
For me the best hint I didn't know is that you can tell if a horse is agitated or relaxed by the way its ears are positioned. This helps when stealing loot from a saddle bag.
How will the ears look? I’m tired of getting kicked.. when the Pinkerton a came to the mansion after coming from guarma the horse kept kicking me so I stabbed him and he never died so I just left
I really coulda used this info last night haha. I found some o Driscolls harrasing a poor soul in valentine and I took em out. But their horse kicked me in the face when I tried looting. Hurt like hell.
Also works in real life, flat ears against skull is angry or scared, ears forward is happy and focusing, if you are talking to a horse they will usually flick theirs ears back to indicate they are paying attention to you 🙂
I'm kinda new and steal from saddlebags all the time . You can calm and pet the horse a few times before you attempt to rummage through the saddlebags . That helps. Remember too you can loot both sides of the horse .
Even when I calm a horse several times, even to the point of being able to ride it so many still kick me. It's driving me crazy as it feels like the game broke itself as it used to work after 4-5 pats/calms but now? All horses except mine hate me :(
5 years later and I'm still learning new things about this game. Unbelievable.

You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute. Hence the expression, "as greedy as a pig."

If you hogtie someone and drop them in a grizzly hotspot with potent predator bait beside their head things get real pretty fast 😂
Also, if you lay out the bait and just stay there you can have a little wrestling match with the bear. Turns out I wasn't a very good wrestler when I did this the first time.
Somehow I’m not surprised that you like metalocalypse
@@IICubeII 😘
Bait doesn't work for me, at least not with big predators. I've found perfect hunting spots for cougars, grizzlies and panthers, but it's location for grizzlies, location plus time of day for cougars and location/time/dead animals as bait for panthers that works for me.
I can use predator bait to pull pigs/foxes that attract panthers and/or herbivore bait for deer to do the same. Or just run around Old Harry Fen like an idiot between 2 and 5 and a panther will find you fast. Or between the rape shack and the pond the wildlife photographer uses you as 'gator bait in.
@@Andrew-fq7pu *Potent Predator Bait* you have to craft it from regular predator bait with berries and flaky fish 👍
You can drag an unskinned animal carcass behind your horse with the lasso and not drop its quality
2 animals for one trip. Awwweeee yeaaaah
You can have ur main horse and ur temp. Then lasso one of the spare horse from camp and you got room for 3 big animals and 30 pelts. I think u can only fit 10 pelts per horse
Or you can get a wagon with a trailer and put pelts/hides in there.

During the Hosea mission when you unlock the fence, the house you’re robbing has a lot of money in the chimney. Also, if you do it at nighttime, you can threaten the sleeping man upstairs and he’ll reveal another hidden stash under his bed. The amount of money you get to keep from that mission is somewhere around $500, that along with the gold bar in the limpany sheriff’s office should get you well on your way to being rich
I knew about the chimney but not under the bed, thank u bro ill be using that for my next playthrough :)

Not really a gameplay tip because it’s not used for anything other than to look cool - but if you double tap L1 to put away your revolver into your main hip holster, Arthur does a neat little gun flip.
Sadly only in third person tho. It doesn't do it in first person which would look cool af
You can also tap square to place a body down vertical instead of holding it to throw the body horizontal.
Awesome detail
You know what's even cooler? If you hold down the aim trigger(L2) and hold while double tapping L1, he'll do his spin considerably faster.
Tip of the week pal. Love doing it
I’m sure this has been mentioned, but stirrups aren’t the only way to increase speed of the horse. Always accept the races from NPC’s in the world, the first reward is 2x the bonding speed and the second is increasing the speed of any horse you ride by one pip.
Sorry. 2x bonding speed from spurring I think.
Really?
I broke racing. I had my clunky war-horse at the start and couldn't go 5 minutes in the world without a request for a race. After 3 successive refusals, I've never been asked since the first days' play. About 400hrs in now and never had a race or seen that guy since day 1.
Wtf, horse races? Played at least 150hrs in story mode, hadn't one offer to race... Only fuckin Mexicans which shot way better than I did - they paid anyway.
I killed the guy that wanted to race and stole his horse.
Not seen anybody on TH-cam mention the ‘Legend of the East Satchel’ yet. It’s well worth crafting it as early as possible because it lets you store up to 99 of each item!! It’s easily the best piece of equipment in the game! Bit of a grind but soooo worth it
...and you can purchase this after you finish the game.

@@onephatkatt you're clearly an idiot, so let me ATTEMPT to get some advice through to you:

Doing the chores around camp (chopping wood, moving hay bales, etc) nets you +5 deadeye for each one. This is extremely useful early in the game to boost your dead eye -- they are shown as small black dots on the map.
Dang, I thought that just gave some other stat boost, but deadeye? Hell yeah!
@@Sphendrana it also makes people around the camp contribute to the money box more often
Lmao I just did those everyday because I’m a lame role player, didn’t know they actually gave me something 😂
@@NomdePlume337 That's so funny cus that's exactly how I found out about the deadeye boost -- I was like these hay bales aren't going to move themselves, better pull my weight around here otherwise I might catch flak around the campfire!
@@funkalicious02 at the start of every day, I’d do Arthur’s hair, change his clothes, have a coffee, do all the camp chores, eat Pearson’s breakfast and then finally go out and play the game lol
I don't know if this helps but I was hunting and killed a perfect buck in the lake and I couldn't retrieve it cause it was too deep into the water, so I lassoed it and was able to get it to shore and skin it.
I nearly lost the legendary white bison when I got so desperate I tried lassoing it and it worked. I was so happy
That doesn't work for me
@@garrysmith1029 yeah I tried it again and it doesn't work. I think it was before rockstar did patches on the game.

Use dead eye to skip reloading. For example when you dual wield and shot all your bullets, go into dead eye even for a split second it’ll restore all your bullets without reloading
Here's one I found really useful. When Im about to get into a fist fight I simply pull out my pistol, don't target with the left trigger just hit the right trigger. Arthur will block any punch thrown and will hit them twice with the pistol and boom fights over. This comes in useful more when you antagonize people and it starts a fight. I am unsure if it works on fights with some cut scenes like the big guy in Valentine you fight in the street.
I once did this, knocked both of my guns to the ground and I later couldn’t pick them up because 100 people were hunting me and they were mixed on the ground with other guns.
@@nikolavujacic7045 after fight finishes you can go to your horse and just pick up your guns (might need to sleep/die. Yep I died, unfortunately).
Not every chimney hides stuff. I've found a few that didn't. Also the horse whistles are different. One tap means to follow but slow, 2 taps means hurry up, 3 taps means get here now.

If you have your main and temp horse with you, you could break a third w/o bonding and use your lasso to lead it from your main horse. Use this method to carry 3 carcasses and more skins at a horse's speed, much faster than carrying the third yourself. More fun in cinematic view too
If your horse is totally bonded and when you get that third horse..if you ride it around long enough that it becomes your temp ..but the bonded one that isn't your horse anymore will follow and come to you until a screen transition..meaning like fast travel..

In chapter 2, you can get a white Arabian up near lake Isabella on the northwestern side. You just have to tame it and you have a good horse for free! You can sell her at the horse fence with level 4 bonding for $360 or at the stable for $240. You can also keep her for the whole game! A very good horse for the cost of a few bullets max. Hope this helped someone! :D
The white Arabian sucks. Turkomen is better but Beau is by far the best
I tried jumping on my horse from the top of a train once because firstly, why wouldn't I, and secondly because I knew you could jump on your horse in the previous game. I missed and almost died, haven't tried it since. Good to know it's still a thing though.
Cigarette cards can be found and bought in Premium Cigarette packs. Make sure to always discard the packs as soon as you pick em up, so the inventory won't be full.
Not sure if anyone mentioned this, but if you get the final satchel that increases everything greatly and stock up on as many potent snake oils as you can, you can use as many as you like during any mission and it won’t count against any gold requirements

Don't know if this is anything new but if you "calm" your horse while galloping (Pressing L3) it will bring back some of your horse's used stamina. You can do this about every 20 seconds or so, mix this with pressing X for syncronized galloping and you'll not have to worry about exhausting your horse's stamina.
In deadeye, manually target each kneecap of the enemy w/ a shotgun.
When you need to go somewhere, put the destiny in the map and put the movie cam, the horse will go automatically. sorry for my english
If you "park" an NPC's horse next to an obstacle like a tree, you can loot the saddlebag without the horse being able to kick you.
Getting off on the wrong side from your horse can be bothersome sometimes (least to me all the time). Simply move your left stick of your controller to the side you wanna get off while also pressing 'Y'.
That doesn't Always work
There are horse races in the game. If you race a guy and beat him multiple times you gain the ability to bond with your horse by using your spurs. If you race the woman and beat her multiple times you gain a permanent bonus to speed to whatever horse you're using.

@Jon C. Awesome. Thank you!
Uhhh you don't need 3 horses, Put hunting kills in the back of a wagon.
Damn I didn't think of that
I tried that and it wouldn’t let me after I used a cheat 😂 maybe I did something wrong
Every RDR2 video with hunting as a topic there is someone suggesting the "so easy" wagon hunting method.
Every single time I have tried using a wagon on a hunt, I have had immense difficulty just dropping corpses into the stolen wagon because of how high up the lip of the wagon is and you can't climb while carrying something.
I have tried climbing into the wagon and then lassoing the corpse, but you don't have enough space in the wagon to drag it "up and into it," climbing out of the wagon while the corpse is lasso'd and attempting to drag the corpse over the top of the wagon from the other side does not work, either (which is surprising, the lasso has good pulley-like physics when dangling someone over bridge beams for example).
The only thing that has ever worked for me with this "method" was to painstakingly move and then LEAVE the wagon near a cliff edge where I could still walk up the slope carrying something but have enough height to drop into the wagon.
But this approach requires either never leaving the hunting spot/making huge backtracks to where the wagon is or to constantly look for the next accessible cliff edge when moving it- and no matter what it is extremely slow, frustrating, and tedious.
Best part? Once you finally get to this point you will realize how janky and risky it is to actually drive a wagon with loose corpses BUGGING OUT over collision physics from it moving. One weird slope and all your "cargo" could fall out or cease to exist, or if you die then you could lose everything not turned in, anyway.
God forbid you don't run into other hunt-ruining issues, like damaging your wagon just enough to lose one of the horses and now you can only go 1/10th the speed...
TL;DR: Hunting with a wagon is straight up not worth the time and frustration it is supposed to save, and IMO it actually makes hunting take WAY MORE time and frustration than ever (making it actually the LEAST efficient way to hunt) AND it is the easiest way to end up losing 2+ corpses and a bunch of time.
Honestly just loading up one horse and fast traveling works really well for several things while hunting: the time skips helps grow the hair out fast (take hair tonic before long fast travels/sleeps for Max effect), helps animal(s) you just hunted to respawn (usually needs around 30 in-game hours max), allows money at camp to passively generate quickly, and allows you frequent short breaks to eat some snack or take a swig of drink which helps keep the hunting session chill and fun.
From there, if you feel that you really NEED to bring two corpses on a trip back (or a corpse and a large pelt), an unskinned animal can be dragged via lasso from horseback without damaging it's quality, and for a third you can do the double horse trick- but this can still honestly be more trouble than what it is worth.
Stupid question: what’s the best type of wagon to use for hunting??
I always used 2 horses, but never really had a problem with the time it takes to get to a trader. If you're in any kind of rushing mood, you're playing the wrong game.
I really wish I could use carts in the game (as a mechanic). I'd love to go on a moose/bear/elk spree and load the cart up.
Fun fact: ravens will often fight a bear over a carcass. The same interaction can be found with bear/wolves. Grizzly vs black. Etc, etc. That'd be a sweet mechanic to see in the game. Wildlife resource competition.

When I first started with RDR2 I found the hunting minigames were far too involved, but nowadays it's literally one of my fav parts of the game once I figured out all the minor mechanisms. So now I know what those stars mean when you're scoping out your next kill, meaning I don't waste bullets and time skinning something worth nothing and going all the way to a trapper only to find the skin is no good anyway. So now when I start a new game file, I prefer to take all perfect carcasses / pelts / feathers etc to Pearson for the satchel upgrades and camp deco, after all those are done I then take them to the trapper along with legendary animal skins for all the trapper clothes. As for any crap quality animals, I alternate between taking those to Pearson for camp food supplies (one star quality) or to the butcher for extra cash (2 star quality)
Cash I use to buy / top up supplies / ammo, any extra money I use on buying Premium Ciggies to get all the ciggie cards, recently finished getting all the cards and collected a gold mine of valuables.
Also love how other parts of the animal are utilized (animal fat for explosive ammo, which helps on all the missions where you need to deal with dozens of pesky enemies, its one shot one kill) and the Oleander Sage used to make poisoned arrows is great for instant kills on bears and legendary animals
I love actual hunting but finding the time to drive out to Bathurst to my mates property to do some shooting is hard so this is the closest thing to hunting for me most of the time, sadly. But as I said, used to think it was a bit too much but now can do this for hours without really advancing the plot of the game
I hope I get as good/passionate about hunting in this game as you are. I only just recently started it (about 2 weeks ago) and while I absolutely love exploring and mystery hunting, I find animal hunting to be such a damn nuisance lmao. I usually just ride through the wilderness whenever I'm on my way to Horseshoe Overlook, shoot at whatever moves with my shotgun and then bring it to Pearson so the camp has some food. No regard for any quality whatsoever. 😂😂

@@DoomFinger511 took me a while as well friend;) ! Some things are right in front of your nose but you can't see it somehow haha
Happy New year!
Ah thanks a ton my bro
Recently discovered if you take a perfect carcass to the trapper, no matter the star rating, the pelt will count as perfect like a 3 star. Use the proper weapon for the animal, dont skin it. Load it on your horse and take it to any trapper location. I've take 1 star cougars, snakes, deer, opposums, muskrats..ect. and they count as perfect. Took me almost 3 years and like 6 playthroughs to discover this.
Does it work for Pearson's Satchels too?
This is 2 years later than your comment. I'm on my 4th playthrough and have looked up so much info on this game and never once discovered this. I'm about to work through the Legend satchel and this will be sooo valuable. Going to try this after work tonight. Thanks man, you just saved me a ton of time.
I’ve tried the multiple horse thing several times. After a while the two non main horses get familiar or something and one stops following you. Just out of the blue. If you do this I recommend putting the most important carcasses ae. (Legendary or perfect pelts) on your main horse.
You can also add 2 birds as well as an animal carcass to your horse. The birds clip on the sides of your horse, the deer (or whatever else) goes on the back (and you can stow pelts under the animal you’ve killed on the back :) hope this helps
Or small animals like possum or raccoon
You can stow More than Birds on the side of the horse.
Rabbits, Raccoons, Skunks, Possums, etc.
To anyone who didn’t know you can get a black Arabian in chapter 2 step 1: go to Saint Denis and make sure it’s night step 2: there might be a chance encounter near the gunsmith were a couple is getting robbed step 3: look up and down the street and there should be a black Arabian.
Thank you!
Alternatively there’s a wild one you can tame which has the best stats in the game. Just like in the first red dead redemption, it’s pure white.
@@fattyMcGee97 It doesn't have the best stats. While it is a good horse it is the worst of the Arabian horses you can get. The biggest down side to Arabians is that they are skittish and will buck you if you don't keep predators at a distance.
@@GarretHouse what do you think is the best?
@@Buckeyeguy9 From my research (and feel free to do your own) the top 3 are Turkoman, Missouri Fox Trotter, and Arabian. Each for different reasons, as you can imagine. Turkoman (my fav) is liked because it is an all-arounder with great health, bravery, and the second fastest speed value of 6 (7 otherwise is top). Downside is that they are few and expensive. Missouri Fox Trotter is a staple race horse but has low health. They have moderate bravery too. Arabian has best overall stats BUT the lowest bravery so a lot of people don't like them for this reason. I usually try to have one or two of each. All that said, in story on PC there are 3 free Arabians you can get right away! Turkoman took the longest for me to get. You can also find their stats online pretty easy if you want more details.
Haven't seen it mentioned but tapping R1 when casting during fishing will make a short cast. Helpful when fishing from a boat or closing the distance initially on a difficult fish.
"press R1" "press circle" "push down on D-pad"

COME ON NOVEMBER 5th !!!!!!!!!!!!!
you bought the game? get scammed sucker. i pirated it:)
@@Chrome2105 dude this game is just another gta/rdr with better graphics. the story is cliche, the missions are cliche and repetetive, the outcome is already known and explained in rdr1 and even people who havent played it looked the game up on youtube and all knew about it.
that makes this game dlc. dont even get me started on the outdated scripts and scripted events this game has. or the repetetive npc's. you meet every random encounter 2-4 times. dafuq? what a cheesy cheap ass cliche of a game. get scammed son.
I had the lowest honor in this game but as I progressed with the story and started really getting into the character of Arthur Morgan, I started raising my honor for his sake
pussy. ;-)
Hahahahahaha😂😂 same i restarted the game to be arthur. Hes really good inside bruh🤣✌️
If you view the compendium in the “progress” section of the pause menu, it will tell you which weapon or bullet/arrow type is best for each animal. As long as you have studied the animal and it has been added to the compendium. P.s does anyone actually know if there’s a limit on how many pelts you can have on horseback? Thanks 👍🏽
Pretty sure the max is 3. Sorry you had to wait 2 years lol you probably know by now
@@mr.sltrskid wrong, you can have 10 pelts on 1 horse 👍🏻 but only 1 if its a big game like bison, bear, moose, elk 👍🏻
10 ram, deer, buck, cougar, panter etc etc and on top 1 big game like bear etc etc
@@ulvhednar2492 i play in story mode
@@mr.sltrskid Me too, never played online mode. Played trough the RD2 about 22 times the last year 🙈 love this game, the best game i've ever played and i've playd since the 80's.
Stand your horse directly over a carcass kill to quickly skin it. Also works on steep slopes.
You can't have two extra horses following you unless you have at least two stalls in the stable open. I was recently trying to figure out why this trick wasn't working all the time, and then I figured out that it was because my stable was full. It helps a lot with hunting though! Wagons are a different story; they can be a pain.
Him - “I will waste no time getting into the meat of the video”
Me- sees video is 10:01, “probably not”
Rockstar is one of the very few developers that always delivering quality games with a lot of attention for detailed graphics and always fun gameplay and it shouldn’t surprise me that there are a lot more gameplay tricks.Programming an believable open “living”world must be very difficult. There is one thing in the game industry that I never understood and that is the pricing of games,anything you buy is priced around quality and/or playtime,graphically style but for some strange reason are most of the game releases priced the same for example when a cash-in game is released a long side some movie you pay the same price for it like Red Dead Redemption II while the simple movie game is made in a short time while on the other side RDD II was years in development and they delivered a fantastic game experience I am very curious what the next Rockstar game will be.
Rockstar is aging like fine milk
Now I know it's been a year since the video's out. But I'm leaving this info here for any new players. You prolly know about the fast travel thingy (trains and coaches) but do you know that auto-drive / auto-navigate exists in-game too? Just place a marker at your destination and then ride on. As your horse rides smoothly on, quickly press the cinematic button and activate the cinematic view. Your horse will go on auto-drive mode.
Been using this after every train heist, which usually ends up placing me deep in the mountains (due to the good tradition of train-tunnel heist method). As my trusty steed brings me down from the mountain and straight to closest town, I go on to get a cuppa coffee or take a leak in the toilet irl.
Outdated Leon I do this too but I can’t leave without holding down x bcuz than my horse will just walk and that’s slow asf
@@juliamartinez9392 you can just let the horse walk on first. When cinematic view kicks in and she's still walking on, auto drive is already engaged.
Let go and then tap x (not hold x) to speed up.
Don't speed up too much as it reduces time for your horse to react to oncoming traffic and steep turns.
Thank u so much this is the 2nd time i hear this advice im new to the game but when i tried the cinematic it didnt work what button should i press on my ps4?
I was eating a sandwich while letting the horse run in cinematic autopilot, and as I rode past a parked wagon, it EXPLODED! Arthur landed on his head (how he survives doing that several times a week, I don't know), the horse ran off, and I was attacked by a squad of Lemoyne Raiders. Apparently it was a planned ambush. By the time I got my hands back on the controller, Arthur was dead again.
I don't do train robberies but couldn't you just fast travel from camps after you robbed a train?
Wow, I’ve had this game a whole week now. I just found out I literally know absolutely nothing. Granted it’s my first PC in two decades and my first game in about as long. But wow. What value. So much more to do than I even expected.
Fast but consistent.
Straight to the point and well explained/edited.
Good Job. Here's my Like
you can camp/sleep around In wilderness areas in states which you hold a bounty. Upon waking from sleep a pack of 4 or more bounty hunters attack you. They drop decent loot, you will not raise the dollar amount of your bounty for killing bounty hunters (not lawmen). You also do not lose honor for killing bounty hunters but you will once you loot them (can be reversed by talking to random townspeople)
You do for looting them
Ahhh, the horse whistle trick will be priceless for me from now on! I had no idea there was a difference, just thought my horse was a belligerent dumbass! 😏
This might be a dumb tip but in-case anyone missed this, there are two types of skinned pelts in the game. The big rolled up kind mostly from (Bears, Moose, Elks, Ox etc...) and the smaller version which when stowed on your horse gets spread like a blanket (Deer pelt, boar pelt, panther etc...) you can stack the smaller pelts on top of each other and then stow 1 additional big pelt. This blew my mind when i realized this since i was going back and forth having 2 additional horses following me while grinding for pelts.
Great stuff. I went up to EVERY chimney in every house though and found not a single thing inside any of them. I figured the reason that the character in that early mission said, "People often leave their valuables up there" was to tell us to always look. But I never found anything in another chimney.
Really that's crazy
Been playing this for days. Watched countless videos. And you guys still taught me some new things. Great Red Dead content from this channel so far. Good job guys.
Hosea always was the "good Angel" on Dutche's shoulder. With him gone, Dutch succumbed to his darker side. At least that was the impression I got when I first played the game.
There is so much to learn in this game. It's unbelievable. This has got to be the most detailed game I've ever played.
Tip: you can fast travel when you set up a camp in the wilderness. So do not use the stagecoach because you will have to pay them to take you to your destination. Fast traveling with your camp is free. You will also be able to go to more places like the wapiti Indian reservation and braithwaite manor.
How do you fast travel from a camp?
@@dennislock3415 There is a fast travel button when you rest by fire, then you can select the place you wanna go
@@mr.sltrskid Are you on pc or ps4,5 ?
@@dennislock3415 it’s available on every device..
@@mr.sltrskid Are you speaking of the normal fast travel at the main camp or from a temporary camp you set up yourself?
Along with number 4, I wish they had done a hair bit more with wagons. Buying different types, limbering them up with horses, and commiting inventory to them. Itd make "trading" into a legit enterprise and open up options for having a small satellite camp in a remote part of the map.
Liked and subscribed!! Also, one little tip and carryover from red dead 1, when you are hunting on horseback and kill an animal..don't get off and run up to it to skin it. Ride your horse right up along side of it as close as possible, then get off right on top of it,and hit the "skin" button. Skinning will be instant,instead of waiting 20 or so seconds for him to finish...
Full pressing the right trigger when facing opponents in a firefight allows you to use auto-targeted hip shots to quickly engage enemies without having use your left trigger aimlock. Really helpful for taking on multiple opponents at close range
If you LIGHTLY hold down the RT/L2 button, you will aim from the hip.
This works best with the sawn-off shotgun, it looks really cool because Arthur will actually hold it with two hands instead of holding it with one hand like he does when you aim normally. It looks more realistic.
If you don't have horse reviver just set camp and your horse will revive
Thank you W man
Wow, wish I knew earlier!
These were pretty good tips. I thought they'd be mostly obvious, but I didn't know a few.
Thank you for this. Really helpful. Just got the game and it probably would have taken a long time to realise these things. My main problem is that the game is so beautiful graphically that I find myself wasting too much time looking around lol. It's going to take me years to finish this game at this rate. Haha.
Finished it by now?
16, or 18? This seems to be a reoccurring issue on this channel
2 extra apparently "shrugs"
The fishing tip was two tips
@@demetriuservin2874 that would make 17, then
@@thatguy2740 he gave 2 tips for certain topics (considering they went hand in hand)damn did yall even bother to listen and/or count?
Thinking is hard for them
I don't want the damn dogs to come running to me whenever I come to the area... That's a surefire way to piss off an entire city or town and get a huge bounty in my experience.
In the real world if I run over someones dog, it's not even a civil penalty, if I'm a good person, I'll try to notify them, and in most cases people just assume it got loose, and do nothing but feel guilty and drive on.
In RDR2 dogs are sacred animals worthy of sacrificing an entire town or at least ones own life for, if you accidentally hit a dog on a trail, even if you don't kill it, you can fully expect the owner to pull out his rifle and begin shooting to kill, because apparently in the midwest during this time animal battery comes with an impromptu death penalty. In a city, it's a whole new level, and you realize precisely how sacred dogs really are. I have accidentally ran over a person in a city committing murder, you get witnesses, but practically no one pulls a gun and starts shooting. But a dog... Oh no not the damn dog... You run over a dog, and the guns come flying out faster then you know what is happening, and all the gunfire seems to immediately notify the local authorities... Dogs are gods in this game... And dogs are also really stupid and will run right in front of your horse at a full gallop if they like you... So...
Don't let the dogs like you... Best you keep far away from them and they far away from you...
But tell me two things: where is Gavin?
And: what do do with the mad preacher?
Maybe the mad preacher is Gavin
Gavin ? Gaaaaviiiin !
Gavin is god and the mad preacher loves water
Gavin is undoubtedly in Red Dead Redemption 3. So we’ll see him in 2027. The Mad Preacher is probably just Dutch from the future still working on his plan.
Dealing with Nite Folk Master tip:
-Use a shotgun, the semi-auto is the best but all work well.
-Don’t stop to shoot down the hanged dead body by the side of the road, you’ll just trigger an ambush.
But most importantly, if you hear a woman crying nearby in the swamp don’t go near, it’s probably the biggest Nite Folk ambush you’ll ever see and definitely the creepiest.
Id go just to keel all them inbread bastards
Those are some of the best creepiest encounters. How have people died with these encounters lol. You literally have the ability to slow time, pan the camera, change 1st to 3rd person perspective etc. The majority of my deaths, which still have been few, have been falling from a mountain top, drowning, or something dumb like that. I think I died in an ambush and or gun fight twice early on in during chapter 2 or 3.
Robin _ Those do sound horrifying but none of those come close to the death toll of *LamBOgA*
That woman crying got me just right. I was genuinely shocked!
Robin _ you a badass of epic proportipns, huh?
8:32 "When all has gone wrong; climb!" best bit of advice I've heard yet!
I actually did not know about holding R2 slowly to charge deadeye I thought it was only for the legendary gunslingers or duels
4:40 what type is this horse?? and where can i find him??
The game is like a never ending treasure trove of surprises! It just keeps on giving!
-And you keep on taking
If you place a waypoint then enter the cinematic mode and just hold A or X depending the systems your horse will B-line to the waypoint using the road your are on
You don't have to hold A/X. You can just tap it twice to go into gallop mode then set down your controller. The horse will travel on it's own.
@@geoffrogue3049 Or worst you get crushed by a moving train along with your horse. Had it happen to me and i lost my damn horse had to restart from my last save damnit.

So the dead eye slow trigger pull works at any time? Then push RB to tag and then what? Re-push RT? Or were we not supposed to ever release the RT?
After tagging how do you get it to shoot all the tags?
I can only have two horses at a time, not three. Also a good tip when shooting small game use the varmint rifle and buck trinket; your 3-stars will drop to 2-stars, but with the buck trinket when you pick up it will go back to 3-stars. No need to waste small game arrows.
This is worth mentioning bc the buck trinket is literally so easy to get

This is the best most informative video on RD2 I've watched and most importantly can stand. Thanks so much. Solid Vid and style.
You can go get a white Arabian horse (one of the best horses in the game) at the north west corner of the map as early as chapter 2 and it’s really helpful. Also you should find out the location of gold bars because they go for $500 each with make the early game so much easier.
yeah, I posted this as well (Arabian horse at Lake Isabella). There are gold bars (2) in the train wreck. And one in the burned out town.
Im currently on a gold bar hunt video there’s 25 gold bars total in the game I’m at like 5,000$ in chapter 2
I’ve played this 100% through 3 times and I’ve never once had someone attempt to steal my horse...
Interesting. It happened to me a lot on my first 2 playthroughs a couple of years ago but not yet on my current playthrough in 2021.
Lol did you stop to help people at all?? Seemed to be a big thing where people were saying this but weren't. Stopping to help someone in trouble just flying through the area
@@alexgoolsby1915 It happened to me the other day.
@5:20 not sure i follow you correctly about filling all those blocks white. But that would ve possible, i mean that would make the diffefemce between weapons non existing. You can not get all bars full white on every gun
You can only hold 5 plain venison for example, but each flavored meat is a different item type. you can hold 5 oregano thyme and mint dishes all at the same time as well
