The gold rush is back with Red Dead! The recent leaks about the possible remastering of Red Dead Redemption I and the next-gen version of Red Dead Redemption II for PS5 and Xbox Series X / S has made many players recover the illusion of the wild west.
Whether you are strangers who now come to Red Dead Online or veterans who return after a long absence, the chances are that you feel somewhat lost. And for that reason we are here! Here are five activities that you can do to enjoy the multiplayer mode both alone and with friends.
Story Missions
Story missions are one of the most fun parts of Red Dead Online to (re)acquaint yourself with the experience, put in a few hours and make some money. They are not as great missions as the ones found in the main campaign, but they certainly have some very epic moments.
And if you are veterans, don’t worry: you can replay them as many times as you want, either in order or by selecting the ones you want from the list. Also, remember that each mission has a rating (bronze, silver, gold) based on objectives and with different difficulties.
Roles: from Bounty Hunter to Liquorist
It is true that getting started in roles is not cheap, but once inside they all offer more or less possibilities to continue expanding. The three most recommended for both new players and veterans are: bounty hunter, Lycorist y Collector.
The role of bounty hunter it’s fun (although it can end up being repetitive) and very lucrative in terms of gold and money. He LycoristWhile not the most lucrative, it does have its own Story Missions. Lastly, the Collector It is very lucrative, but it requires patience and a willingness to explore a lot. If you are interested in the latter, here is the interactive map that marks all collectibles.
hunting and fishing
Hunting and fishing are two activities very dear to the community of Red Dead Online y Rockstar Games he has integrated them into both daily challenges and roles. Both hunting and fishing have their crumb: each animal must be hunted with certain weapons and specific hooks so that its skin does not spoil. In addition, the fauna is distributed in a coherent way and it is necessary to know the habitats of each one.
Although the fishing has no other reward than selling fish and obtaining food, the hunt allows us to sell the skins to Gus Macmillan or in shipments with the role of Merchant. If you don’t feel like hunting animals, the role of Naturalist is the halfway point: the study of animals and sample collection using sedative projectiles. It is a perfect role to observe animals and marvel.
exploration and survival
Lovers of exploration and survival have the perfect setting in Red Dead Online to enjoy it. The collector role is perfect for this experience, because the treasure maps will take us to travel around the world. And if you do not want to tie yourself to an activity, just start walking and let the path take you.
Another very interesting option is to dress in a normal outfit (which does not cover too much of the cold or heat), leave all weapons (except the bow), travel to the frozen mountains, make the horse leave and try to survive only with the bow, the small campfire and only the food that we can hunt at the moment. Nothing to take a thousand cans of food. From experience I tell you that it can be a very challenging activity.
Massacre in a Town
If you are bored and want some blood, you can go to a town to stage a killing and vent as long as you can endure. It’s a good way to pass the time and fuck your karma. Slaughtering NPCs is always fun. There’s only one problem with this practice: some players may go to justice for what you’re doing, especially if you’re doing it in locations like Saint Denis, Valentine, and other major ones.
My recommendation is that you go to Tumbleweed o Armadillo. They are two dwarf towns, remote and unimportant. They have rooftops to stand on high and you see law enforcement reinforcements coming from afar. When you get tired, just take the horse and run in any direction. It’s easy to lose authorities in the desert.
