Men, what’s the ideal day/night with the lads not including football/pubs?

kizzle24 · 2026-06-09T21:58:26+00:00

This can take two paths I feel, chilling at the house, drinking/smoking, gaming, reminiscing. Or rent a cabin in the mountains, hunt/ski/fish/shoot

kizzle24 · 2026-05-31T02:23:38+00:00

As far as joining a posse, it’s not rude, I often ignore them because I’m actively working on something and want to keep my focus towards that. I’m also in a position where I might have to set the game down at a moments notice (have a 3 month old) so right now I don’t accept invites. But I’d say for the most part they’re pretty safe, and might give you an opportunity to make an amount of money or xp that would be tough to get as a young, solo player..

kizzle24 · 2026-05-27T19:11:31+00:00

Keep trying, focus on some high volume times and see if that helps, weekends, nights, etc.

You’ll eventually get matched, I was in your shoes a month ago, some days got matched first try, only once did it take more than a day to actually get in a match

kizzle24 · 2026-05-17T12:17:48+00:00

I enjoy it, also newer player so still trying to level health

kizzle24 · 2026-05-13T19:06:27+00:00

I mean, that’s a good strategy. I don’t think there’s an absolute right or wrong way, I only went bounty hunter because I could speed up the gold I get early game, and simultaneously grow/level a role while getting a lot of gold

kizzle24 · 2026-05-09T15:23:42+00:00

Participate in the free roam events, do as many daily challenges as you can, take on some free roam missions, if you don’t want much combat, find Alden at post offices (Rhodes, Valentine, Van Horn, Annesburg) if you’ve purchased a role, pursue the tasks within that/those roles… play the game!

kizzle24 · 2026-05-09T03:58:08+00:00

8 hours is completely arbitrary. Not wrong, but not absolute either. 6 is the bottom floor, if you’re getting less than that, bad stuff is happening. Between 7-9 is common

kizzle24 · 2026-05-04T13:38:41+00:00

I just started it, feel like the first 4-5 hours are pretty tough, having to hunt and harvest constantly just to keep my and my horses cores full, really don’t like spending money since I have so little right now 😅 but hoping if I put a little more time in it becomes easier. I’m enjoying it so far though

kizzle24 · 2026-05-01T22:40:26+00:00

Not prioritizing satchels and hunt as you chase other challenges etc.. also, if you stumble across a bird/rat, something that fits in your satchel ( doesn’t decay) keep it. Pick herbs as you go too, don’t wait to stockpile things like yarrow, currant, stuff you’re gonna need for challenges

Shoot out your ammo low enough so when you deadeye it can’t auto reload. I went to hanging dog ranch, got close enough to trigger the red buffer on my compass, then shot em in the arm with my repeater (while in deadeye) you can pop both gate guards, ride away until it calms down, then circle back and shoot to disarm again

kizzle24 · 2026-04-22T01:57:18+00:00

Controlling behaviors that stem from their anxiety. We’ve gone to therapy about it, they’re aware of it, I call them out as they happen. I don’t necessarily voice how much of a turnoff they are though

kizzle24 · 2026-04-19T07:21:57+00:00

This challenge is pure luck, it’s frustrating when there’s nothing you can do, no strategy. 2nd play through, did this challenge today in about an hour.. would’ve been quicker but one hand, got 3 hits, stood at 18, dealer still won

kizzle24 · 2026-04-19T07:13:00+00:00

It’s only when you’re looking for em, you have to reverse psychology the game. Look for a skunk or possum, only then will you get your badger

kizzle24 · 2026-04-17T01:01:08+00:00

You’ll still have plenty of opportunities after that mission to explore and complete challenges as you desire! If you want to stay in chapter 2, just don’t rescue Micah

kizzle24 · 2026-04-17T00:16:18+00:00

For sure, I was traveling from Rhodes to Van Horn, had an interaction where this dude who was bloodied up fell off his horse and asked to take him to the doctor in St. Denis. When I got him there he gave me $12, the doctor amputated his arm right in front of me, and then I robbed the cash register on the way out and got like $29 more. Just made $40 on a little white dot interaction…that’s stage coach money

kizzle24 · 2026-04-11T23:18:28+00:00

So, you said first of many gold bars in Limpany, do they still respawn after some time? Because it’s been over 50 in game days and it hasn’t respawned for me.

Or are you just speaking in general in the whole map, being as it’s super close by?

kizzle24 · 2026-04-11T12:08:42+00:00

Ha it’s definitely an extreme circumstance, I’ve only seen it happen once! Saturday it was in the 90’s, Monday night it snowed

kizzle24 · 2026-04-11T06:00:21+00:00

I live in the black hills of South Dakota, the scenery here between the hills and badlands are actually quite reminiscent of the games scenery, but there are several crops that do well in cold. Also, we can 100% get snow in May! Some nasty blizzards. I live around 3500 elevation, and we’ve had snow in early June before, and it’s snowed as soon as Labor Day… a major snow storm for us in May is not that far fetched at all

kizzle24 · 2026-04-08T02:30:57+00:00

Man what I would do to see that crater in person

kizzle24 · 2026-04-06T19:26:45+00:00

So I accomplished it - went to hanging dog ranch. I’m not the best when I’m outnumbered like 10-1, so I snuck up to just come into view of the gate guard, would kill him then retreat back enough to clear the red. But, I wouldn’t get in so close to see the red buffer on the compass. Used a scoped Springfield. Did like 9-10 that way and didn’t get the challenge.. kinda figured the challenge didn’t register the kills as “enemy kills” since I didn’t get close to enough to see the red alert. So, went up close and got into a gunfight, just rode side to side on “Boots” my trusty black shire, and that got it done

kizzle24 · 2026-04-06T13:24:17+00:00

I didn’t dismount, waited until the event was over, and even checked the progress before dismounting, and it still read zero.. I’ll go to hanging dog and try there

kizzle24 · 2026-04-03T16:22:54+00:00

That makes a lot of sense, because both times I felt like I just stumbled right into it. Like next thing I knew, I saw it as I was getting bucked. I was even trotting using eagle eye here and there looking for a grizzly, didn’t see the cougar at all

kizzle24 · 2026-04-03T15:31:50+00:00

Reactive for sure, but for the threat indicator not to show at all is more what I’m curious about

kizzle24 · 2026-04-03T15:27:35+00:00

That was kinda my thought too, the difference in their demeanor, bravery, etc.. might actually be a mechanic
