It is official. Rockstar has patched the bugs that have caused the multiplayer portion of their recently released epic Western, Red Dead Redemption to be unplayable for many people. The patch, which was released today, fixes the connectivity issues as well as the invisibility bug that had animals, weapons, and even the player’s avatar simply disappearing.
The patch is out for both Xbox 360 and PS3 and you will be prompted to download it next time you boot the game up. Be sure and let us know your thoughts on the Red Dead multiplayer once you’ve played it! You may now move about the prairie and commence to killin’.
I havent delved too far into the MP, but it seems like it doesnt have the legs to last too long. I had a feeling it’d be that way since GTA 4 had the same problem. luckily the SP is amazing, so MP isnt that important
That being said….how the hell did the invisibility glitch get past testing…
i’m about a level 14-15 or so at this point on the Red Dead Redemption multiplayer, ps3 version, and i gotta say… i love it…
the Free Roam multiplayer is actually really wonderful and i’m quite surprised at how well players seem to have taken to it. at least the ones i’ve encountered. Every so often someone will send out invites to everyone to join a shootout(deathmatch) or a gang shootout(team deathmatch), but what i’ve encountered the most has been people forming possies(sp?….) and just having fun with the game world, making their own ‘play’
both last night and the night before i’ve sat down to play ‘just a little’ of the multiplayer half of the game before i made more progress in the single player… and both nights i ended up going to bed having not touched the single player. not that the single player isn’t amazing as well, but i just got lost in the fun and the chaos of the ‘not-so-lonesome’ wild west
(edit: for context, i normally don’t touch multiplayer more than once for most the games i play. that includes the multiplayer in GTA4… )
thank god this took far too long & considering the huge amount of people that were experiencing these problems especially the multiplayer & not even being able to join any freeroam sessions :\ I have no idea how it got to release with these probs but.. lets hope to hell it really is fixed, they said they released a background patch on the 2nd day of release but apparently it didn’t work at all.. and since it was a background patch no one could tell if they even recieved it xD. Amazing campaign so far though I do have to say
I LOOOOOOOVES ME SOME Gatling gun & Wolf hearts
:\.. well its monday the 23rd & I still can’t get online with this game..
