Okay so i completely addicted to Red Dead Redemption, yet there are so many random achievements that most of them just leave me thinking "how the hell am i meant to do that?!?!". Here are some achievements i am particularly finding difficulty with:

  • Basically all the gang hideout single player achievements - do the said places turn into gang hideouts once the single player story is complete?
  • Buckin' awesome - how to you differentiate horse breeds? where are the said breeds located?
  • Gold Medal - what defines a "combat mission"?

Also the achievement "spurred to victory" does it matter if you hitch your hourse between missions like when you sleep or go into a saloon/store? Or is it only if your horse dies that you forfeit the achievement?

if you have or know how to do the above achievement offer any help you can as i am sure i'm not the only one having achievement difficulties. Also if you cant do an achievement post it on here and i or the other helpful gamespotters will surely shed some light on the situation!

P.S. The avatar unlocks are just the sombrero, 2 red shirts and 2 black shirts, right?

... Uh, google? But seriously? Dude, just play the game and you'll know. These are all very simple achievements.

I have Buckin' awesome now although i have a new problem i have just completed fort mercer (well a few missions back now) yet i do not have the achievement nor did i get an achievement after doing my first stranger mission... could this be something to do with the fact that i skipped to a checkpoint in seths mission when your going to tumbleweed to find the treasure?

Seth isn't a stranger. The names are shown in the Achievements, so you should just check the map to see the general vicinity they're in. A combat mission is one where there are categories for accuracy, headshots, and time.

Yeah i know seth isnt a stranger, i was just saying that maybe me skipping a section of seths mission has stopped me getting the achievements until i go back and repeat the mission and complete it all...
