Don't really care about multiplayer unless it's offline. Can't wait for this game regardless.

Hilarious, though to be fair, I think GT5 looks amazing as well. Enjoying the best of both worlds doesn't hurt to be honest. Do you only own a 360 now?

Cool, cool. Sounds promising. So your posse can join in a typical team deathmatch at any given time? Hmm. I want to see more. I'll probably sink in more time in the SP. . .

The hell with the other modes, this is where I'll be spending my time outside of single player. Based on what I have seen of ARMA II, this looks like a similar experience, only in the wild west. Even if you are not playing with a 'gang' or group, it will be fun to lone wolf across the whole map trying to ambush others. This is simply fantastic.

Ahh was already looking forward to the game but now i cant wait! I loved GTA4's open world lobby, me and a group of friends played in that more then the actual multiplayer, but it never felt right because there were never police or any kind of structure to it. I love the passe feature, the random bandits, bandit towns, hunting, oh man i cant wait. Its about time there is a good western game, its such a underused setting.

Looking great. Unless something horrible happens and it results being a terrible game, I'm totally getting. This + Alan Wake + Conviction + Galaxy should keep me busy the next couple of months.

I think if you compare 'good' exclusives on both plats you will find that the PS3 has very comparable number of exclusives with MP. That's just as bad as claiming the 360 "is a shooter console", at least.

I saw that thread but didn't enlist into the battle that appeared to be going on there. Didn't realize you were the creator. So you'll only be playing Red Dead Redemption multi then?

[QUOTE="Animal-Mother"] How am I hating? I'm just saying, everyone says everythings GOTY It's just stupid to me thats all. Especially when we have 8 months left. We don't know what could surprise us. And just so you know I am picking this up with alan wake :OAnimal-Mother

Haters gon' hate

Lol, Yup but I ain't hatin. I never said it wouldn't be GOTY, I never said ti would suck. So how mah hatin?

I agree with what you said. But do you honestly feel this is not one of the most "legit" GOTY claims (from what we have seen/know about this year).

lol no. i love single player. i always finish single player before i go into online. my problem is single player only games. which then comes down to money. i dont think it was worth spending 70$ (canada) for a game ill beat in like 9-10 hours then have nothing els to do but to replay the game. unless its a long rpg game like demons souls or mass effect. good single player and good online = buy for me.

Probably from what i've seen. I agree with you. it does look like the most legit GOTY thus far.

You are an ARMA II player, would you say that this free roam mode looks similar in terms of a massive open world to play online with? From what I have seen, it sort of gives me that impression, but in the wild west of course.

Wow, I just watched the video and it looks awesome. It seems like it's a MMO (of course not AS big) without the montly price.

So you don't think there should be room for innovative attempts at gaming such as Heavy Rain? That game is absolutely amazing, and is praised for its fresh take on storytelling in games, yet its only about 8 hours. You think these kind of games should be eliminated completely?

The details were very vague though, it looked very dynamic, but I can't imagine how it would work WITHOUT being MMO with servers.

You could turn off auto-aim in GTA IV, hopefully it's the same here. I noticed but didn't say anything because of that.

I wonder what type of character customization there will be online, if any? In a game this big, that is a must.

My only concerns is that it is the largest game map R* has tried to do and im wondering if it will be mostly empty crap (FC2 comes to mind). That being said the 16 player free roam looks incredible, i can see myself ditching the story to play that nonstop.

However, seeing as this "free roam" acts as a lobby I don't know if auto aim can be turned off, nothing has been explained in detail. In GTA it was on/off before the game mode started.

Hell no, the more room you have to explore and play in the better. Sure as hell beats short matches in confined maps. I would rather have a massive world with complete freedom to play mutliplayer in any day.

I cannot wait to get on my horse, trudge across the plains and Mesas, while scouting out ambush points and places to snipe unsuspecting groups of players from. Imagine the hours you can spend just doing something like this. Of course, that is just the tip of the iceberg from the looks of things.

But then they would need to use servers, no? Damn, I wish they would have explained more how it works.

Well, the impression that I got is that you have the whole map to play in and can pretty much do what you want. I hope this turns out to be the case.

man the R* marketing team must have came in their pants when they saw that video, it almost had me sold. My only concerns is that it is the largest game map R* has tried to do and I'm wondering if it will be mostly empty crap (FC2 comes to mind). That being said the 16 player free roam looks incredible, i can see myself ditching the story to play that nonstop.

Hell no, the more room you have to explore and play in the better. Sure as hell beats short matches in confined maps. I would rather have a massive world with complete freedom to play mutliplayer in any day.

I cannot wait to get on my horse, trudge across the plains and Mesas, while scouting out ambush points and places to snipe unsuspecting groups of players from. Imagine the hours you can spend just doing something like this. Of course, that is just the tip of the iceberg from the looks of things.

everybody is located on the mini map like gta:(.....so much for hiding in a cave for me lol

Im not saying make it comfined, i actually do think open world is way better than linear crap levels, what im wondering is if there will actually be anything to do in the open world. Take FC2 for example, open world just the same, you go from towns and explore out in the african savannah, but there is never anything to do, add that with annoying respawning outposts and you have an extremely boring game. i want to know if the space will be filled with things to do.

But then they would need to use servers, no? Damn, I wish they would have explained more how it works.SaltyMeatballs
its not like an MMO as other would have you believe, read the multiplayer hands on. there can be up to 16 players in 1 free roam game at a time, and form that 16 you can make posse's of up to 8. but during the game the 16 players can explore the whole game. so take GTA4 free roam and put it in a western setting and BAM you have RDR

Oh, seriously? Still looks brilliant anyway. I was so hoping to have a mode where it was a free for all across the entire map, kind of like what I have seen in ARMA II. But, with fewer players and in the wild west, obviously.

This GOTY nonsense is getting redudant.

You know how many people say thta.

Then look at Demons souls.

BAM

What's nonsensical about it, exactly? It's a game made by Rockstar, one of the very best development companies in the industry. To say that the game has a great shot at winning GOTY awards is very realistic. It's something fresh. The old west setting is grossly under-utilized in video games. It's about time somebody tried to do it justice. This game will be huge. Quote me on it.

It doesn't matter if they have a pedigree or not, AM is right, this "GOTY!" attached to every single game, what, 9 months from GOTY time, is getting really, really tiresome. Apparently everything with a budget is GOTY!

I agree. It seems like every game that is shaping up to be pretty good is getting called GOTY. I can care less about that crap. As long as the games are good I'll be playing them.

Looks really good! I don't know if it's GOTY worthy but if GTAIV got AAAA I don't see why Red Dead Redemption wouldn't, it looks better in every way.
