How do I capture bounties alive?

You need to Lasso them, once you have you approach them and hogtie them and pick them up and put on the back of the horse

I think you can drag them back along the floor whilst on your horse but not figured that out yet.

The manual and map did smell kinda nice when I first opened it up last night, having read this, and gone back in the box....

it smells delightful

I am gutted went to buy the game and nobody has it it in stock.

I'm hesitant to cash in my LE code yet, I would love the extra outfit, but the golden guns and warhorse would be a bit of a gamebreaker, is there a way to select what you "activate" (I know you nee to earn the outfit ingame)

i got a code for golden gun and rifle with my preorder,whats the LE gun,is it more powerful or just the same gun

It took me about 5 minutes to fold the map back into the box, it's insane how difficult it is

Lovely smell though

How much have you played?

Have you found 'hanging rock' yet?

I was the same when I first looked at it, I was like WTF? Then after exploring it starts to fall into place.

ONESHOTKILL · 22 May 2010 at 15:22

Loving the game. I have just done a few missions from the start and went around having a good look. Shot a few birds and started a few challenges. Shot some random bloke on a horse from really far away then had the posse after me. Out ran them and paid my fine.

I tried, they just scream & run away, No surprise sex either.

Surfer · 22 May 2010 at 16:32

Was in armadillo. Chillin outside. Bunch of rowdies come riding in guns a blazing and run me over.... so i'm ragin :mad:

i whistle for my horse and chase after em. Only caught one of em coz he was trying to drag a woman away for hanky panky. I lasoo him chuck him on horse and try to find the train.... cant find any train at all :confused:

tracks but no train. so i make do with just running over him a coupla times with me horse..... :cool:

i'm crap at poker..weird rules.
Decent at the horseshoe game..
Havent had chance to play 5 finger foe yet.

Got numerous "spec sheets" for some new clothes. Quite like the rain and weather system. Not too shabby

I dunno why there is no sex at brothels option??? It was pretty much the main entertainment in them days...Rockstar?

You also cant really play a bad guy...as Marston is far far too WUSSY with his talking and YES SIRSS NO SIRSS and respectful to women etc. So thats a little bit dissapointing.
