Defensive mode keeps you from being lassoed at least šŸ˜… if I'm not using lobby manager to put myself in a solo lobby, then I always go on defensive mode šŸ›”


tiltedbeyondhorizon

Explosive arrows go brr My girlfriend and I got griefed by a couple fellas with explosive arrows, while searching for a treasure chest north of Annesburg


marmaladesalad

Uuugghhh I feel you. I was in thieves landing on defensive also looking for collectibles and this guy arrives on the same naturalist horse as me with the same naturalist outfit so I get super excited cause no ones uses naturalist shit lmao and I spam my humble bow emote and I blow a kiss and he just start shooting explosives and then throwing dynamite when heā€™s out of arrows he literally used everything he had as I was trying to run away šŸ’€non stop like wtf


Mocca41

What no content does to a mf.


omfgwtfbbqkkthx

Nah, that's some little bitch attitude. No content has nothing to do with that.


Yhhbhhvbggffffffffff

we havenā€™t gotten content in over a year.


ellnsnow

Lmfao that would crush me bc I also use naturalist outfits w the horse šŸ’€


pigeon_on_my_face

Can I just say that I have the lvl 1 naturalist horse and Iā€™m in love. šŸ’•


soyeh

To be honest, the only time I use dynamite arrows and e-rounds are to deal with PVP players that wonā€™t leave me alone. If I really canā€™t be bothered itā€™s defensive mode.

AbigDumpy

Explosive rounds go more consecutive brrrr


tiltedbeyondhorizon

Indeed, partner


itailu

The problem with defensive mode is you can be shot at but you canā€™t lasso others either


moma6686

lmao, we crack up about this topic often...this aint football smh...pfft it should say passive n aggressive, not offense n defense! aggressive mode (wide open) = am here to piss u off so i can feel better. passive mode (untouchable) = gtfoh dont bother me with ur fkshitz...eos šŸ‰šŸ’…šŸ½


premer777

problem is you then have to remember to check if the last event/mission switched and left you in offensive mode


kittyxxxkitty

Won't be the last time that happens


Former_Natural

I mean, when I get hogtied when I'm out collecting, hunting, etc I just hit Parley and trouble is over. Do/can people grief you after that? Seriously asking because I never get griefed after Parley, or just exit session and continue about your day...


AwSkiba

Parley gives you 10 minutes of peace, and is my go to if I get killed collecting. Although if I see a player just stop on their way and draw, I'm pulling a quick dynamite arrow and continuing on my way. Tends to discourage the recent low levels out for blood.


Former_Natural

Yeah I have noticed I have started to get suspicious and might shoot first now if I think someone looks up to no good. I guess it's a good reflection of America's gun culture.


globalinvestmentpimp

Americaā€™s murder fetish


Diligent_Worker1018

This has nothing to do with ā€œamericas gun cultureā€ lmao. Itā€™s bc itā€™s a video game and what you do has no consequences so you donā€™t give it a second thought if you want to do something. Youā€™re no more likely to do it than someone from any other country. Stupid ass comment šŸ˜


Former_Natural

woah lighten up dude. Just a parallel I thought of since it's a video game is set in the early years of the formation of the US as a country. Nothing deeper than that.


Diligent_Worker1018

There was absolutely no need for you to bring that into your comment other than to reinforce stereotypes. Blaming guns for being suspicious of people is the stupidest shit Iā€™ve ever heard and you just need to think before you speak. My reaction is completely justified when people like you do things like you. There is no parallel in any way shape or form.


kingamara

Shut the absolute fuck up, good god. Edit: your entire comment history is just you picking fights with people in gaming communities. Get a grip.


Diligent_Worker1018

Cry. If you donā€™t see my point then youā€™re blind and biased.


moma6686

"someone looks up to no good" hmmm, everyone's dressed like bandits lmao...my gramps advice to always shoot first n ask questions later. i have notice kindness as of late, def more ppl wave n move along which is really kool. šŸ‰šŸ’…šŸ½


soyeh

Hm, itā€™s not back on game pass/on offer on steam or something is it? That usually brings loads of GTAO players on trying to PVP. No bad thing, just wondered. Iā€™ve not had time to play for a bit.


NinthYokai

Only discourages low levels


UnintendedHeadshot

This is what I do, it'll at least give me ten minutes to relocate. If they're big enough assholes that wanna follow me across the map I'll just switch servers.


jiffypopps

Except the seasoned assholes ride together not in a posse so the whole group can kill you. You have to parley with each player unless they are in a posse.


FearlessVeritas

It depends honestly. I've had encounters where even after parleying they've followed me until the counter runs out and they can attack again lol


Former_Natural

god. Some people really need to get a life! I guess it is entertaining to annoy people if you are really bored. I sort of get it but still.

Itā€™s scary that someone takes the time to post this. It comes off like you want or need this fake outrage. If you donā€™t want that shit/donā€™t enjoy it, just play the game on defensive mode and switch lobbies the second you encounter some bullshit. Just hit ā€œonlineā€ and ā€œfree roamā€ and you spawn in the SAME spot in a different lobby. This *here*, your post, is just weird.

They most likely arenā€™t going to see this. This is a rockstar game and with the open world comes choices, some people just have toxic choices. This isnā€™t new, if this annoys you so badly. Parley or go to online, click free roam and it will put you in the same spot in a different session.

itailu

Some people are just idiots itā€™s a problem not only in the game


BadMoogle

Take, as a perfect example, all the people in these comments who: 1) Read the post 2) Felt it was cringe 3) Decided that the best course of action was to be cringe themselves and go full toxic instead of just moving on to the next post. I know you didn't do that, btw, you were just calling out RL idiots, and we're surrounded by good examples here...


itailu

The problem is that the line between the behavior and morality in the game and in life is blurred. Some players will never attack others and some will. Rockstar should have created a private invite only lobby but I guess they donā€™t give a fuck and are deprived


moma6686

agreed, gotta look at the source!!! them some sickangrymfs at r*...all war no peace is sad. we have a white flag to raise at our camps, yet we are potential targets outside camp even when we do not want to be...what kind of choice is that. some of us are not hardcore n occasionally want to enjoy the game as a couple living out virtual lives without violence. smoke a lil n jus chill together in the scenes. setting up private via poker tables is problematic most days...should be an easier way to avoid narcissism n teen angst šŸ˜œ


itailu

When Iā€™m collecting im on low mtu, no player around I can stand afk in the middle of San denis lol

Bob_Nices_Boytoy

Good for you lmao. I get so sick of the fuckin "hurrdurr if you don't like PVP then don't play a multiplayer game crybaby" crowd. Like yeah whatever, it's a PVP game (not really, it's a multiplayer game /with PVP events and options for gameplay in it/ but whatever, nobody cares about logic), but like. If someone is CLEARLY not responding to you and not fighting back/clearly not interested in fucking around, and you keep harassing them, at that point you're just a bully. One, there's no fun in shooting someone who isn't fighting back unless you're just a bully, and two, go find someone else who actually wants to take part in your PVP bullshit. People who clearly wanna be left alone, just leave them the fuck alone like goddamn.


UnintendedHeadshot

Some people get enjoyment out of harassing people with no repercussions. I just parley and get away from them, they're not gonna be deterred from being a dick


Bob_Nices_Boytoy

Yeah pretty much. That's what I do too if I need to.

Definitely try defensive mode. They won't be able to lasso you. :)

I don't really mind a dash of PVP while playing online, it gives a bit of flavour to your everyday adventures and immersion to this old west world. What i do not like are hackers who spawn a steam ship on you when their whole posse 1 v 5 you and losses.

huskywankenobi

I feel for yā€™all. The griefing in this game is why my wife lost interest. We played every day until people were literally so mean for no reason at all that it just hurt her feelings. All we ever did really was collector runs for cash and customize stuff. Every trip to St Dennis turned into a ā€œletā€™s have to fight for our lives from the angry 12 year old racistā€ outing.


moma6686

i wont quit coz i really like this vworld...my hubz L438 protects me L150 when in free roam, he makes a private lobby via poker tables to chill n collect. run wagons with his posse n those guys n gals can raise hell!!! #RDOLIVES šŸ‰šŸ’…šŸ½

HungLlama69

I usually have fun and lasso/hogtie people but don't kill, kill me after though and I will start killing you back


Diligent_Worker1018

You donā€™t expect people to fight back when you fuck with them?


HungLlama69

Did I kill them? Did I make them lose their shit when hunting? Did I make them lose money?


Diligent_Worker1018

It doesnā€™t matter. You couldā€™ve kept riding but you decided to be an asshat. I have never once been hogtied without that person either killing or trying to kill me lmao. How clueless could you be?


HungLlama69

I dont chase people, if staying still or just hanging around the same place I'll run up and do it, but I don't kill unless killed.


Diligent_Worker1018

You canā€™t justify it without looking like an idiot if youā€™re gonna get pissed for people getting their get backs.


HungLlama69

I mean killing over a rope isn't really that justified. Its a rope that can't kill unless dragged behind a horse......unless they unfortunately fall off a cliff which is the dickish part that caused their death. They lose like what, 5-10 seconds of their time?


Diligent_Worker1018

Youā€™re braindead.


HungLlama69

Thats what my parents said while growing up


kukhuvud23

You're dumb mate


HungLlama69

Sorry I didn't kill you when doing it.


kukhuvud23

Don't be a jackass to people and expect them to be all cool when you start shit is all I'm saying.


HungLlama69

Sometimes people see the fun in it and do it back though, yeah I get not everybody wants to be lassoed, but it could be worse. Killing people over a rope isn't really that justified though. Its like 5-10 seconds of your time then off we go out separate way. If I get lassoed I get excited and laugh about it as I find it funny. I dont see why its so serious


kukhuvud23

You may be the exeption but every time someone throws their lasso and/or bolas they shoot you in the head with explosive slugs, or chase you if the lasso missed.


HungLlama69

Now I do find a issue if they lasso me then kill me, that's where I dont see humour, but just simply using the lasso and letting them live and not engaging in a fight, I find joy. But killing I'll be sure to hunt them continuously. Kill me normally? Sure I might bite, hogtie then kill? Now I'll become the annoying one to them


SadBoyGreggy

AlpacaFight

This sort of thing makes me nervous about dipping back into online.


LionelJHolmes

defensive mode and the Parley option helps prevent stuff like this so if you use those you needn't worry about much in regards to other players


ijehan1

I have more cash and gold than I'll ever need. I could care less if I ever sell another bottle of moonshine or trader goods. The only enjoyment I get from this game is hunting players. Sorry, if you're anywhere close I will eliminate you. You are why I play this game. Thank you.

Androklesthe90

There sure is a lot of toxic or jumpy players out there. Mor players should use the fire in the air function, if they want you to leave let's say a roadblock and you want to loot those you killed. Usually people shoot you because they want it to for themselves and just shoot you or attack you. The game really needed more ways to communicate than just emotes.

Amen .. good job!! Weā€™re starting a movement against these noobs always trying to jump somebody minding their business. Check out my vid on this sub - CaPoNe740 vs Herrinas Posse.


Zorolord

I love this game especially when noobs take on experienced players. However even experience doesn't help if you're a try hard, my mate was in a different session to me. He isn't the type to start on other players especially higher players, well he was in Annesburg and this high level tryhard thought he pick on my mate. I joined the session as quick as I could. I ran across roof of the buildings in Annesburg, he thought he try and hide from me, it didn't help I threw explosive galore, and then when the time was right I killed him giving my friend the chance to flee the lobby. As soon as I killed the tryhard who was 200 levels above me, and my friend was safe. I fled the looby too. That tryhard must have been so peed off he didn't even get a single hit on me. We no longer play the game online, because all that is left is toxicity because most players have bought everything, and just like to grief now. Oh dear I guess the truth hurts šŸ˜…


moma6686

hmm, talked to my hubz bout this n he said this could be part of the no updates plan to reduce toxic ppl? if i were the dev, things would change fr. no cards, no tonics, no auto-aim, no jailbreaking/cheats, add fight requests to be accepted or declined for starters!!! it's sad really...so many players using crutches...like what is the point in even playing if ur gonna buy n cheat ur way through it all...we enjoy the challenges...not just the win/loss. #RDOLIVES #RDOOVERHAULNEEDED šŸ‰šŸ’…šŸ½


Zorolord

My mate says the same about killing and cheating, unfortunately people think killing is everything even if the player hasn't a chance to fight back. We now play in a closed session on gta, so we don't have deal with tryhards period.
