did you do it because of the gold bars?
I’m ordering today and trying to decide if the bars are worth it. Will be going straight into online and do fancy bounty hunting

If I can give one piece of advice to those who haven’t played yet on console it would be this:
Don’t go exploring too far past the areas you’re in with the story, firstly there won’t be new quests in the other areas and secondly it removes the excitement of uncovering a new area as part of the story. I spent hours in areas I shouldn’t have been in and when I eventually got there as part of the story they felt stale.

Can I stick a VPN on and play after 4?
It was apparently same price for the standard edition with "free upgrade", but thought what the hell anyway.
Monday is the 4th not 5th though

Vital info, as I figured I'd just spend some time exploring. Thanks!
Soldato
Will do thanks been looking forward to playing for a good while so want to make the most of it.
I’ve played a very small amount on console but decided to wait with many other games to play at the time anyway. It was one game I wanted to take full advantage of and the perf side on console I wasn’t quite happy with. So figured I’d wait for the pc release and put my pc to good use

Just been looking at old videos of the first game from 2010, obviously the graphics are a much lower standard but the game still looks quite good, things like firing a Gattling gun at bandits or Indians whilst on a moving train or wagon was much in use.
The video shown here is misleading and 'the story so far'
gives the impression that the new game is a follow on whereas it's a prequel

I scraped the surface of this on the normal xbox one when it came out...even on that it looked incredible, so can only imagine what it'll be like on PC. I will get it but not straight away.

Another tip: There is a chap in your gang who can craft you 'upgrades' like satchel upgrades etc. Keep a notepad handy and jot down the various resources required to obtain them. Hunting is quite important so be mindful of your surroundings and what spawns where.
Edit: Dammit, now I'm thinking of booting up my savegame.

A quick question, do you get jumped and mullered by mountain lions like in GTA? or do you have time to kill them?
Soldato
You get a chance to shove off the initial pounce providing your health is good in the first place. They are still just as vicious. They don’t appear that much in the world though and you’ll soon learn their hunting zones...besides there’s far worse things out there.

So would you suggest to mostly follow the main story and then do rest of side quests and more exploring ? Or is it like once main quest done, the game is over ?

40 minute download for me.
Shame I cant play it till Tuesday

The game isn't over, without spoiling anything, but I'd suggest doing side quests as soon as they appear on the map and then move on with the story.

Some side quests are do'able post the story but as above, you're better off doing them as they appear.
