Black Ops 4 is scheduled to launch on October 12, 2018, which many folks might realize is a bit earlier than normal. If you’ve been paying attention over the past few years, or every year since 2006 to be specific, you’ve likely become accustomed to the annual Call of Duty game releasing in the first or second week of November. It’s become standardized to expect Activision’s blockbuster shooter to drop at some point during this span but that’s all changed this year. Is it just pure happenstance? Maybe. But I think there’s something a bit more to it. I believe that Activision is concerned about being caught in the shadow of Red Dead Redemption 2 .
Situational awareness is a skill needed for just about every video game, but it’s more necessary in some scenarios than others. And if you are hunting and your prey falls dead on the railroad tracks… it’s safest to keep both eyes peeled, as Reddit user johnnydoo2 learned the hard way when the train passed right through him and even scooped him up for a free ride. Things could have certainly gone worse; the train could have simply splattered him, but there’s no doubt his Arthur Morgan isn’t going to be forgetting that anytime soon. And what must the passengers on the train thou
One thing that stands out in most Old Western games has to be the classic treasure hunt. Out of nine maps, the first you can find in the Jack Hall Gang treasure map side quests comes from a fellow treasure hunter named Max
In this un-official side mission , when you wander onto Aberdeen Pig Farm you’ll be invited into the house by a lovely couple. This couple will proceed to get you drunk, if you choose to drink, and rob you whilst you’re unconscious. You’ll then have to retrieve your cash with or without fo
I don’t know if it’s on purpose or a happy accident, but the horse skinning skip is back. In the original Red Dead Redemption 2 fishing guide Dead Redemptio n with our boy John Marston, there was a simple trick. The animation for skinning an animal was actually shorter back then but people were still impati
In the area of Rhodes is where our next chance encounter lies. If you happen to buy from the Gunsmith there, you might’ve heard some whispers as you walked in. There’s a man that calls out to you from the basement hatch outs
There was an odd period of games back around the late 2000s where the open world genre really flourished, but there was no swimming allowed. What I mean is these games would showcase these huge sprawling landmasses, but your character would melt as soon as it touched the wa
The massively open world of **Red Dead Redemption 2 ** has a lot to offer – from beautiful landscapes to all-out shootouts. The game comes to life as you travel from town to town, with plentiful wildlife and a whole host of small missions that spawn along your journey from A t
Once you do, the map will update with your next location. Keep in mind, he’ll only show up late at night. Pop in around midnight and you’ll come face to face with the “vampire” Rockstar so lovingly included, and a unique weapon as a rew
The biggest rebuttal to the entire argument that I’ve laid out here is that Black Ops 4 and Red Dead Redemption 2 aren’t even direct competitors with one another, which I do agree with. While there is definitely some crossover fans between the two franchises, it’s likely that Call of Duty will more directly be competing in the shooter market with EA’s newest Battlefield title which we know will be releasing later this year. Despite this difference of genres, Red Dead still is a monster that Activision cannot afford to ignore.
Travel southwest of the Stilt Shack in the Northwestern corner of West Elizabeth. Take a detour off the path and across the river, into the trees, you will discover the crashed airship. Where did this ship come f
There are so many NPCs and playable characters in RDR 2 that you wouldn’t be at fault for think of it as a western Where’s Waldo . There is a lot to see and do, and Rockstar took full advantage of this fact with a notable Easter egg. In early November, Ned Luke, the person who voiced Michael in GTA V tweeted that the character could be found in RDR 2 . First was in the credits, and second as an actual character who speaks to you. Unfortunately, players have not yet spotted him, but they are hot on the tr
This next item on our list is located in Grizzlies East, New Hanover. Located north of the Mysterious Hill Home and East of Donner Falls, you will find a mysterious narrow path that leads to a hidden cave entrance. When you enter the cave, be warned that there are several creepy statues of humanoid-looking beings standing in a circle. Who put these statues here? And for what purpose? Is this the work of a cult? Who know
This one doesn’t quite fit into the category of funny bugs, but it is an important one to mention . There’s a mission pretty early on in the game called “Polite Society, Valentine Style”. When doing the mission, there are a few different areas where you can fail, and the obvious thing to do would be to select the Retry Checkpoint option when this happ
