Red Dead Redemption 2. Fall 2017 PS4/XOne

[Mantis]

"Developed by the creators of Grand Theft Auto 5 and Red Dead Redemption, Red Dead Redemption 2 is an epic tale of life in America's unforgiving heartland," a blurb for the game reads. "The game's vast and atmospheric world will also provide the foundation for a brand new online multiplayer experience."

Not particularly fussed if they're already making a big deal out of online. I thought GTA5 suffered in the single player department because they put too many resources into online mode. Not to mention that we haven't had a single DLC expansion for the campaign because they keep churning out online packs so people will pay the microtransactions.

GTA Online has absolutely god awful netcode and ridiculous server issues with lobbies and load times too. I hope that they've at least managed to improve on that.

They couldn't think of another applicable R word so used a 2 instead?

On Rockstar I haven't enjoyed one of their games since Vice City. I haven't played 5, but everything else whilst feeling polished felt behind the times in terms of gameplay. I'm also incredibly tired of their humour, it hasn't changed since the original games and has just stopped being funny.

Ditto.

Anyone who was expecting an "also coming to PC" announcement clearly don't know Rockstar's past history all that well. Either it won't come to the PC just like the first or it will arrive in 2020 long after console owners have moved on to something else. Some are saying no wai I think they will announce an RDR remaster for PC version before they release the sequel on the same platform.

One word.

No.

Could have. Should have. Never to be. Rockstar don't give a flying fuck about PC gamers or pc gaming in general regardless of how popular GTA V is on the PC.

[Mantis]

Aren't the Red Dead developers a different team within Rockstar that traditionally don't really do PC games? The main Rockstar dev team always brings GTA to PC, eventually; the other teams aren't so fussed on PC ports.

Unsure tbh.

My guess is we will see a Scorpio version looooong before we ever see anything remotely concerning a PC version. Obviously PC gamers are now going fucking nuts considering the vocal majority have expressed just how much RDR would be appreciated on PC. Rockstar seems intent to just wish to keep it as a console only property.

A petition to bring RDR 2 to the PC has already been started. Good luck with that fellas, yeah...

[Mantis]

Yep, Rockstar San Diego make Red Dead. Rockstar North only seem to do the main entries into the GTA franchise.

More than likely this will all be Take-Two's doing anyway.

[DjchunKfunK]

Have they confirmed that it is San Diego making this one?

This means no GTA6 until at least 2018, more likely 2019 - around the time new consoles will be released and therefore it will be hobbled by old technology.

[Quietman]

So do we think it'll be a prequel as everyone seems to suggest? It would make sense what with the original being set more towards the tail end of the "Wild" West.

Not for PC though right?

[Mantis]

Not as of yet.

PC players rejoice though! As Red Dead Redemption 1 is soon to be available on PC!

Nope. However you can now play Red Dead on the PC via PS Now.

[Jez]

Nah playing it via that thing looks like pump. Hopefully R* come to their senses and release multi platform. It's all the fashion these days.
