Hey there, outlaws and virtual cowboys! If you’ve been exploring the vast landscapes of RDR2, you know it’s a game that demands more than just a quick trigger finger. This open-world game is filled with possibilities. But to make the most of your adventures, you’ll need some information. I’ve compiled some must know tips for your journey.
1. Bond with your horse like it’s your sidekick in a Western movie.
Treat your horse right, and it’ll return the favor when you need it most. Brush it, feed it, pat it on the backside, do whatever it takes to build trust. Your horse is more than just transportation, it’s your partner in crime.
2. Dead eye: your key to precision.
Dead eye isn’t there to just look cool, it’s your secret weapon. Don’t be shy with it, it turns chaos into precision.
3. Turn on “toggle to run”. Sprint smarter, not harder.
Toggle the run settings, and let your fingers breathe. No more holding down buttons like you’re in a marathon. Just tap once and let your character do the rest. Your fingers will thank you.
4. Look beyond the main missions.
RDR2 has a massive open world, it can feel a bit overwhelming. But try and look beyond the main missions. RDR2’s beauty lies in its attention to detail. Wander off the path, explore hidden places, and discover the secrets of the Wild West. You never know what you might find!
5. Shoot first, but not always.
From mastering Dead Eye to executing perfect headshots. It’s not just about shooting fast, it’s about shooting smart. Think about when you’re going to shoot, you don’t have unlimited ammo.
6. Make every dollar count.
Manage your finances with thought. In a world where every dollar is hard-earned, learn about trading, hunting, and crafting to make the most out of your precious loot.
7. Use the RDR2 online world as well.
Playing the game alone and being consumed by the story, can be a lot of fun. But don’t limit yourself to that. Dive into the multiplayer experience and invite your friends. Unexpected things can happen when you’re not alone.
8. Embrace your inner collector.
Pick up herbs, hunt exotic animals, and gather rare items. One man’s trash is another’s treasure, so collect away!
9. Outsmart your enemies with stealth.
Whether you’re sneaking into enemy camps or avoiding a messy gunfight. Crouch, and be careful no one sees you. You don’t always want a hord of enemies to shoot at you.
10. Customize your outfit.
Express your creativity by customizing Arthur’s outfits. Walk through the Wild West with style, and let everyone know you’re not just a cowboy, you’re a fashion icon.
11. Master the art of fishing.
Whether you’re a seasoned player or a beginner. With a rod you will never go hungry. Food is important in RDR2, it refills your cores.
Whether you play alone or with friends online, these tips will help you navigate the unforgiving world of Red Dead Redemption 2. Saddle up, and make your mark!
