    If y'all ever want to bone up on Eminem songs, holler. I know my drawl doesn't scream "likes rap," but I listen to everything under the sun.

    And to Robert and Mel, who the shit did y'all play against? It sounds like y'all fought the women from that old SNL skit where Ana Gasteyer and Molly Shannon hosted that radio program. (The most famous of those skits was the Schweaty Balls one with Alec Baldwin - for the uninitiated.)

    And Robert - this is the only Eminem "song" you ever need to know.

    Spaghetti and meatballs? Given how we are with player names, I'm gonna assume y'all fought people named Spartacus and Metropolis.

    And Robert, you have no idea how much I want to see what your character looks like. I laugh every time I read "Reba meth addict."

    Be prepared for me to sing Fancy the first time we get to play together. Either that or "That's the night that the lights went out in Saint Denis."

    I dont want to ruin anyone's experience playing the game. 

    People play games to have fun.  Sometimes you have other stuff going on, and for whatever reason cant join a party, or just dont want to.  

    I changed my gt (MY5TlK), some may not know.  Most know though, I've had conversations on xbl either on party chat or though messages.

    If I've done or said something to offend you, tell me, I will try to make it right.

    If you dont have the fortitude for that, and are hiding offline to avoid me, just unfriend/unfollow.  I can respect that.

    Rockstar still doesn't give a shit about your privacy settings, you show up under "crew" playing the game even if you are "appearing offline" on xbox live.

    If you dont want me in the crew or to post on this board anymore, again, let me (or I guess Neil, whoever runs the crew) know. It can be resolved, quickly.

    I dont want to call anyone in particular out,  I sent multiple party invites to multiple people over the weekend.  I've had people go offline and join a new session and play on, knowing it was me.  It has happened on gta, back before I changed my gt.

    Since I assume this is pointed at me, I'll address it.

    If I offended you by not joining your party, then I apologize. I was talking to my wife while playing and didn't want to slap on a headset. I have played with Stout, Robert, and Mel for years now, and we don't always send each other invitations. Hell, I've been best friends with Mel since 9th grade and we don't always jump in a party. Half the time, I message and ask first because, as you said, people may have other things going on. The point is - if I didn't accept the first invite, then I'm probably not going to accept the third or fourth one either. Just leave it at one, man. I'll join when I can, if I can, if I want to. Doesn't mean I'm trying to avoid you.

    As far as offline goes - I go in and out of it a lot - mostly trying to avoid an annoying cousin. I know Rockstar games show people online no matter what their privacy settings are. Been that way since GTAO came out a half decade ago. Ain't anyone trying to hide or lacking fortitude, as you put it.

    It's all good man. See you online some time soon.

    Side note - don't know what I expected, but these servers are as dog shit as the GTA ones. I picture a smoking server rack in a rusted out warehouse somewhere with Milton from Office Space sitting in front of it in the dark, bitching about his stapler.

    I should have put money on Burke being the first one to confuse the two threads

    DAMN IT...

     

    Edit: Boy, I sure love hunting for an hour and getting booted from the server before I have a chance to save.

    On that subject, I honestly have no idea what is the easiest way to save. Finishing a mission?

    I barely survived a cougar attack in online, but still have yet to see one in the wild in singleplayer.

    I had to laugh at an article I read yesterday. The author was complaining that Saint Denis online is empty and it feels weird compared to singleplayer.

    Like - haven't we all complained about getting the law on you because you accidentally sneezed near a St Denis resident? And now this guy is bitching that it's empty? Fuck em - I'm glad there's barely anyone in town.

    My Xbox name is the same as on here. I also have a PS4 and my name is the same there as well if any of you PS dudes want to add me. I don't have a ton of games for it as it's mostly a media center for me, but maybe we'll link up on something one day.

    Since melraz was asking me, I'll post it on here. I started a new game and it doesn't appear anything carries over. Looks to be a fresh start.

    I finished the last game with an achievement for the highest honor rating possible, so I'm playing this one as a complete asshole. Anyone who mouths off in town is getting a bullet in the face. I expect to be constantly broke from paying off bounties.

    So is the guy who can't stop getting fucking bit by snakes

    I beat the game and have just been riding around checking stuff out and looking for random encounters.

    Ran into that asshole again tonight. THIRD time bitten. If I hadn't played the whole game with a good honor rating, I'd have shot him in the face right then and there. Don't need that shit in the gene pool.

    The only thing I experienced the entire game, and I'm not even sure it was a bug - was when Charles and someone else I can't remember were following me.

    They were going so slow and wouldn't catch up, so I had to trot alllllll the way back to the mission marker. Took for hell and ever.

    I was going to just leave them, assuming the cutscene would catch them back up, but the dialogue was screwing up until they got close enough for me to hear them. Just the same first three words of a sentence repeated over and over and over until I stopped my horse to let them catch up. Maddening.

    Spoiler

    The mission where Arthur is about to get stabbed to death and Dutch just walks off...

    Even my wife, who is barely invested in the story but has watched me play enough to know a little bit about what's going on, said out loud, "Oh....oh wow. Fuck that guy."

    YOU HEAR THAT, DUTCH? EVEN PEOPLE NOT PLAYING THE GAME THINK YOU'RE A PIECE OF SHIT.

    I was so happy I got to fist fight Micah, but I was hoping I could throw him over that cliff. I also hoped to at least sock Dutch in the face once too.

    Now I'm just hoping Marston gets a chance to before the epilogue is over.

    The epilogue never ends.  I'm convinced of that now.

    Holy shit - were you ever correct on this one. It took me probably an hour or two of playing to wrap up chapter 6 last night, and then I thought, "Well, I'd like to see this thing through tonight, so I'm going to play until it's done."

    I swear I think I played - between the rest of chapter 6 and the epilogue - a solid 5-6 straight hours last night and I'm really not that far into the second part.

    Don't open this one if you're not late into the game - chapter 5 or so.

    Spoiler

    I got legitimately sad when Arthur got the tuberculosis diagnosis. Now I'm wondering who I will play as, a la Jack Marston, if he dies when the story is over. Kind of hope it's Sadie.

    Kudos to the writers for making me have actual feelings over a video game character.

    I can tell I'm getting close to the end, and I have gone against my usual grain and have tried to take my time and not just blow through the story to see what happens. That being said, now that I am trying to see the ending, I have an endless slew of stranger missions popping up that are distracting me.

    Given the median age of posters here ...

    I don't know what you old fogies are talking about. I'm totally 17, give or take a couple of decades...

     

    Anyway, I started a new chapter last night. The end is nigh and I can already tell I'm doing a second playthrough the minute I'm done. (Until online launches - then all bets are off.)

    I can't believe I'm about to say this, but I think I'm starting to like Arthur more than Marston. Dude is a great character. To the shock of no one who has heard me in party chat, I am freaking my wife out with my impression of him. Apparently it's pretty spot-on.
