Popular Post DarkKillerITA Posted December 6, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 6, 2018 (edited) If you haven’t logged into RD Online's beta at all, today is the deadline so log in for some good, free cash and gold bars! They're going to be very useful for all us trophy hunters (it'll surely ease the grind for the Horses for Courses trophy).

Sergen Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Even though I have the platinum, I'll just claim that reward in-case future DLC gets trophies and needs that money. I hope this isn't their solution to the broken economy though, the prices are still absurdly crap. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are working on the economy, they updated the prices of things in the catalog today and are retroactively giving refunds if any are due to people who have already bought stuff. So good on R* in my opinion. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's SUPER easy to earn money in SP and SUPER hard to earn money on multiplayer... There should be a middleground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPageMartin36 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Cool. Can hopefully a buy a decent weapon now to replace my crappy repeater that doesn't kill anyone even if you shoot them 6 times at close range (while I get one-shotted). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So good on R* in my opinion. How do you know they are "retroactively giving refunds"? I see they have lowered some of the insane prices in the catalog for the more expensive guns to slightly less insane prices, but not much else. For example, the Pump Action Shotgun I had to grind for 10+ hours has dropped from $444 to $266. Where is my $178 refund Rockstar?? Since they are actively nerfing and patching out every possible way for us to grind $$$ and gold, this refund would be kinda helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rally-Vincent--- Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Too late for me. I only need XP, I don't need to buy anything else than restock my ammo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narniak Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I see the BS catalog still lies about the worm bait, implying you get 5 for $0.50, when they are actually $0.50 PER WORM. But hey, who needs worms for fishing Salmon and Trout, when you just spend an entire gold bar on a single fishing lure! Oh wait, it appears that Rockstar may have just now patched out the ability to buy the lures early with gold! Sorry monkeys, you gotta spend $10 every time to fill up your worm bait, then watch as all the non-salmon and non-trout eat away your profits. But hey, at least a worm is still cheaper than a can of baked beans! Oh, and I see it's still $350 to upgrade a single ability card from Tier 1 to Tier 2. BROKEN ECONOMY = ROCKSTAR PAY-TO-WIN MICAH-TRANSACTIONS INCOMING! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps you shouldn't treat the state RDRO beta is in as the state it always will be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the twitter post along with the $250 and gold bars, the refund should be back to you by the 14th.

Guest Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 So they are fixing the beta. Nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mori Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I am making almost 4x the amount of money in Big Series Matches and 3x in free roam missions than before. I am able to buy better weapons which are also much cheaper now. Selling stuff also gives way more. Cant believe people are still whining 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant believe people are still whining They also nerfed hunting and fishing, so selling stuff is now not giving more, but in fact FAR LESS. I just checked, and the value for salmon at the Butcher had dropped from $4 to $2.50. Also, it looks like they may have eliminated the ability to pay for the fishing lures early by spending gold bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah maybe I can just do some relaxing salmon fishing while I wait for my refund. SORRY, Rockstar just nerfed fishing so you can't make $$$ anymore! Funny how their little BS catalog still lies about their ripoff price for freaking worm bait. And of course it looks like they've removed the option of buying the fishing lures early with a gold bar.

Narniak Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 It wouldn't surprise me at all if the $250 and 15 gold bars is to help protect Rockstar from the massive backlash when they reset everyone's progress towards the end of next week. Basically anyone who played the Beta starts anew with these amounts, and anything you earned over those amounts is wiped out. I don't even care so mush about the $$$ and gold bars, because it's obviously not smart to try to hoard online currency when you're playing a Beta. However, if Rockstar intends to reset all character EXP ranks they are going to have a DISASTER on their hands on par with Bethesda's Fallout 76 fiasco.

Rockstar is only going to reset stats if there is a game breaking glitch. They are not Bethesda. But hey don't let fact get in the way of the massive shit attack you're enjoying there.

Paco-001 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 More interest in more content then free money or goldbars. As a trophiehunter the grind for XP is more of a problem. Don’t want to grind one mission and just play multiplayer gets annoying. Give us more (coop)missions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
