DX12 is running smooth for me, almost all ULTRA settings, 4k with 0.75 scaling, looks superb no indication of lower res and 30-60 fps.
Worth a go yet for £44?
Is Red Dead Online worth playing for solo-billy-no-mates like me?
Online?My own little bar and band (who currently play xmas tunes )
Online?
Yeah, for all the problems I had in the first week or two of installing it, have to say it's been running flawlessly for a while now. It's even snappy and stable when alt-tabbing in and out, which I always like to see.
The problems I'm having are with the game mechanics, and this is almost certainly a PEBCAK issue. Mostly I'm finding deadeye and quick draw to be really finnicky and inconsistent.
I know you are in a kind of deadeye mode with quickdraw, but I don't know what I'm doing with it. Sometimes I find I can aim or paint a target, other times I can't.
Also in deadeye... for instance, having been sent to kill some wolves, I thought okay, no problem. They see me and close in. I pop deadye and try to mark the leaders... nothing. I can't paint a target on them at all. So I start free-aiming in a bit of a panic and then I'm kicked from deadeye back to normal mode and I'm mauled to death. I still had core and a bit of ring in my deadye metre, so I don't know why that happened.
Next time I tried, the same thing happened. I went into deadeye, but couldn't mark them. The "mark" key did nothing. I managed to shoot two wolves anyway in free aim deadeye, and then came out of deadeye and back into it and for some reason I could paint marks on the final two wolves perfectly fine at that point. They were a bit further away, which makes me wonder if it's a range issue, but I can't find any information on this.
A little later I was ambushed, and managed to paint marks on the heads of two guys mounted on horseback, fired and turned my attention to their buddies on foot. Only for one of the mounted guys to shoot me down from behind. Can enemies survive a deadeye mark to the head, or did something go wrong here too?
That's before I get into all the times I've tried to defuse situations or surrender and find myself shooting whoever I'm talking to, or wrapping my hands around their throat.
Loving the game, but geeez, I'm finding some of the controls and mechanics pretty frustrating!
Are you referring the two wolves in the snow at the start? I too recall having strange aiming issues and dead eye issues. Have now gone away as I’ve ventured further in.
