I finally managed to get the game at Humble Bundle after PayPal payment errors at both Rockstar and Epic, only to find that I then had to link Humble to Epic and then Epic to Rockstar. No drama, but what a tangled web.
An enjoyable intro which sets out the storyline very nicely, once I'd got past the character menu. It's looking good on high settings and I'm a little surprised that there's no in-game FPS counter.
Anyway, just as in GTA V, I'm having difficulty remapping the keys, which can only be done by being in the game. I choose an alternate (A fwd Z back) and those then change other keys and on it goes ad infinitum, driving me nuts.
Escaping out doesn't save the changes because the conflicting keys have to be sorted. Surely there's a simpler way to achieve two key remaps.

I'm going to wait until this game is on steam. By that time all the bugs that have been reported, some will have been fixed.

:eek: Good luck with that in a mere month, LOL! We’ve had GTA 5 what, 4 years or so now on PC? Rockstar is still managing to break the game with “patches”.

@Splinterdog you should message one of the game forum mods and get an Official tag and name change for just Red Dead Redemption 2, before we have 37 different threads. If you want...:)

A year or so after GTA5 released the game was on sale and someone purchased a copy for me for christmas during a sale. I haven't been a fan of GTA since GTA 3, everything since has been pretty crappy, but I figure I'd give it a go just to see.

I gave the game a chance. Got it going just fine, playing across 5760x1080. Played some online here and there and eventually went to play the single player storyline. Sadly, with the widescreen resolution, any cut scene played at some horrific super smashed resolution (almost resembles when people take video with their phones vertical) that makes things impossible to watch and figure out what's going on. The cut scenes didn't default to a 1920x1080 size like all the other games that I play at 5760x1080 do.

I tried to find a fix for it, even tried the game again after patches, but the cut scenes still didn't work correctly.

I have zero faith in Rockstar getting things done correctly. Then again, I did have a copy of RDR for the PS3.....had to be one of the most boring games I've played. I got through about 8 hours of game play, pushing through the storyline and it was boring. Just a bad copy of GTA on horses, if you ask me.

Sorry mate, not sure what you mean. I thought it might be a good idea to create a thread that dealt with what we all thought of the game. Either way, let it be merged if necessary.
Anyway, I just hammered any old keys into the mapping because there are so many of them and if you change one that's already taken, it buggers up all the rest. They really could have made that aspect much simpler, particularly since there is an option for alternative keys.
I haven't really had time to fully explore the game yet anyway.

He just meant that if your thread is tagged "Official" by a mod then people tend to go there to post about the game and not create more threads. Maybe ask also to change the title to "Red Dead Redemption 2 Discussion". A game like RDR2 certainly warrants an Official thread.

For fps I just run the benchmark in the menu.
I like the game but the character moves really clunky, hard to get the horse or man to stop sometimes, hes got too much inertia. I've started some brawls by running over townsfolk already LOL. They need to sharpen the movement inputs for keyboard WASD.

Thanks, @64K , now I know.
Very impressed so far. It's a beautifully crafted game, looks wonderful and so far I'm still at the first part.
It'll take a while to get used to the controls, but I'm sure I'll get there.

You'll get used to it. Look on the bright side, at least here you can headshot everyone like it ain't a thing. Try that on a controller with 30 fps.

Thoroughly enjoying the game and it feels like one might call an old fashioned shooter, with the kind of pace that I like.
Just a couple of glitches - I still have the Vulkan overlay issue, so I had to remove the implicit layer reg entry again, otherwise, the game wouldn't start. I might try DX12 and see.
Can't get rid of the mouse cursor, in spite of having updated Windows, as per this image which was suggested by some.

Other than that, a very well crafted game, beautiful to look at, with a very well written storyline.

Has anyone managed to get the game running in DX12? I switched and it refused to run, disappearing into nowhere with no error messages at all.
Since safe mode doesn't work for me, I edited the system.xml file (docs>rockstar games>rdr2>settings) to go back to Vulkan and now it runs. I was curious to see how it ran in DX12, so Rockstar needs to sort this out. There have even been suggestions of BIOS updates being required, so I might try that as well.

Guys from Hardware Unboxed have the same issue. I doubt it's the case of BIOS update since you're running 2600X and that is limited to 3000-series users.

Now imagine having to deal with their support when you want to refund this POS. They'll charge you within seconds if buy it, yet somehow "processing" your refund takes days.

I wouldn't go as far as calling it a pos because when it runs it's a good game on the whole. It's Rockstar that's at fault here.
Updating my BIOS had no effect and it still won't run on DX12, so I'll carry on with Vulkan.
My biggest criticisms so far, are that it's very heavy on cutscenes which appear at any given moment and I feel that so far it's cutscenes:10 and me:5, the checkpoint system is crap, requiring a mission restart on dying or failing to succeed in some critical task and the save system is locked at the beginning.
I had to hold down the left mouse button to complete something critical
on top of a train
, which I did, but seemingly failed so I had to go back to starting the entire mission as opposed to loading a checkpoint.
That kind of thing really pisses me off as does holding down keys.

The game on its own is great, unfortunately this whole mess with PC port and R* way of handling the situation makes the experience a POS.

My experience with RDR 2 it runs great but crashes after an half our to one our. It screws your missions really bad. After the game crashes the whole computer is really sluggish and you cant even open chrome afterwards. You have reboot the computer. I have all on ultra except for long shadows and other long way rendering options. Its like there are memory leak or something anyway the game has real bad issues.

Yep, figured. Instead of actually working on it they just waited a year and slapped a new for PC sticker on it and charged full price.

Sounds like my official price point has dropped from $40 to $30.

After i did integrity file the game started to load and then quit. LOL Then restart the launcher and then same error: rockstar launcher exited unexpectedly.
There was a launcher update about 30 min ago that seems to have fixed the issue for me. At least it went to "turn on cloud save for RDR2?". I killed the launcher at this point, since I'm already dead set on getting the refund.

Has anyone had any luck getting it to run on DX12?

Yes it runs in dx12 for me but crashes even more. Vulkan gives a smoother experience.
