 Did the game let you skin the horse?

Ive shot a few horses in gun fights but never had the option to skin them.  Haven't killed a wild horse yet.

 

One thing I want to try when I get around to hunting, is live bait.  Hogtie a small animal or an Odriscoll :devil: and leave it out for a predator.

 As long as it wasn't the white Arabian up north you should be alright. I've found a few spots with tons of wild horses running around. Supposedly you can catch and break them. Did the game let you skin the horse? LOL

 

Sadly you can't skin them or pick up the carcass.  I didn't even realize it was a horse until it wouldn't let me do anything.  Then I actually looked closer and said "oops, hope it wasn't mine".

I haven't even thought about lassoing any of the animals until now.  I'm going to have to do that.  I wish I had tried it with the giant turtle I nabbed yesterday, since that seems like a perfectly crazy image.

I was playing the very early mission the other day where you rob the train.  In the middle of the fire fight, I wound up failing the mission because "your horse has died".  That was kind of weird seeing as how the horse had absolutely nothing to do with the mission.  It was left behind at a place where you were forced to leave it as part of the mission.  I hope I don't run into that too often.

 

And speaking of horses, I was hunting some deer last night.  I followed them around for a while.  Then I took one out from a long distance with an arrow.  When I walked up to skin and collect it, apparently I had killed a random horse instead.  I hope that wasn't some secret rare horse that I can now never catch.

I think the mission was failed because you needed to get away in your horse and the end so it couldn’t die

One of the camp improvements is an upgraded tent for Arthur which opens up quick travel from the camp to the towns you have visited.  You can also take the train between towns and recover your horse at the stable.

 

When I look at the ledger it only shows tent upgrade for Dutch is that the one or does something have to be done to get one for Arthur?

Already learned that lesson :wallbash:

 

Had another similar run in later in Valentine but didn't follow

 

Was riding south of the Braithwaite estate when a damsel in distress flagged me down.  Then she pulled out a revolver and demanded my money.  So I blew her head off with my semi auto shotgun.  Two more red dots appeared, somebody screamed Holy S##t he killed ,<whatever her name > so I chased both down and killed them too and looted all three.

 

Had another run in  walking into the gun shop in saint Denis.  Black guy bumped into me and said in stereotypical voice "scuse me missa".  I lost some cash and he ran off.  I pursued on foot, lassod and hogtied him, and took all his money.  Then I whistled my horse, got on a few yards away, and galloped right over the guy.

Some guy and his wife reeled me in on a pig farm. Guy was huge and was kind of hinting that I could have my way with his sister/wife.  Got drunk and ended up in a ditch with a body on top of me and no money.

Yeah. I did that one too. Was awesome. You made the same move I did. Of course you accepted all the drinks and wanted to bang his wife. 

 

What you didn’t do it sounds like... is go back to the farm. Hunt down the guy and his wife/sister inside the house and kill them both. Then find the picture of their mother on the wall and investigate it. You will get all you money back and then some.

I am playing "Adventure."  Is this new game, that this thread is about, better?

 

I am having a hard time getting the black key away from the pesky bat.  Any advice?

And how do I beat the Red Dragon.  He's really a P.I.T.A! Here I am in his stomach for the 29th time! Dang it!

I'd really wish they'd make these games easier! I think I need a YouTube walk-thru.

If you lasso an animal (any), you can walk up to them and kill them clean to get a perfect pelt every time. Works on legendary animals as well as any of them in the wild. 

(haven't tried this on bears!)

The real secret is heading into the middle of the dark room and collecting the dot and bringing it back. You would receive the first “Golden Egg” ever in video game history. And you could win the OASIS for getting that. Split it with your 4 friends, the HIGH FIVE. And banish IOI for life. 

 

Oh crap... does this mean we can’t play on Tuesdays and Thursdays anymore?

I had a similar run in on the bayou.  Guy sitting on his porch noticed I was hungry and offered some food.  I walked inside, got knocked upside the head, and had a brief blackout animation that felt like something out of Deliverance where the guy told me I wasn't gonna get away.

 

Woke up and rode back.  Guy was on his porch and said You Again! then tried to run inside.  But one shot from my bolt action rifle stopped him in his tracks.  I put his corpse on the back of my horse and dropped him next to the swamp.   Grabbed my shotgun, blew his head off, and left him for the gators

You only get a perfect pelt if the animal is three stars. 

 

When you target or study an animal there will be one, two, or three stars next to the name.  This tells you the highest quality pelt you could receive (1 star for poor, 2 for good, 3 for perfect).   If you study the animal you will see what type of weapon and ammo is needed for the highest available pelt.  And then depending on the animal you have to hit a critical spot (which are marked via dead eye)

I'll have to try that out later today.  I'd imagine it's a bit tricky to get close enough to an animal to actually pull it off.  I'll even go as far as to test it out on a rat or something just for a moment of stupidity.

The controls are incredibly complicated though.  How in the hell are you supposed to know what the button does?

I stumbled onto a mission (a secret one I think?) behind the drug store in Valentine. 

Go behind the store. Peek in the window and a guy is there counting money at a table. The game notifies you that the mission is unlocked.

Go around to the front of the store and rob the store. Left trigger the guy and point a gun at him. 

He takes you to the back to let you in where the guy at the table was with the money.

Shite goes down as you eliminate them.

Take the cash. Open the wooden box on the table and it gives you a sweet Schofield Revolver!

Make sure to bring a stick of dynamite with you and blow the safe on the wall! More cash!!

Chest on the ground as well but can't remember what's in it but there is something there. 

Beware, you are going to have to shoot your way out of this mess you made.

Great fun!

Also, you should hitch your horse a bit of a distance away from the drugstore because once the lead starts flying your horse will be nowhere to be found. I left him at the opposite end of the street where they are constructing a new building. I just had to run to him after. They will pursue you on horseback.

I found that.  I just sat there and watched the guy counting money for like 5 minutes thinking something was going to happen.

 

Then I walked away

Not much of a mission ?. Is that supposed to upgrade the peeping Tom attribute?
