What funny/random moments have you seen?


-I shot a buck that was running full speed, and it flew threw the air, plowing into a random guy walking by, killing him.

-I shot a deer and it slid down the side of a very steep tall high. I hopped off my horse to skin the deer, and I slid down as well, barely surviving. After I found and skinned the deer, I whistled to my horse (a nice $750 golden one) hoping it would find it's away around down to me. I hear a loud nay, and look up to see a horse leaping to it's death.

-I discovered that cougars don't like being teabagged. I got attacked by one and narrowly managed to kill it before it killed me. For a laugh (my girlfriend was watching me play) I went to teabag it's dead body. Out of nowhere, another cougar flies at me and knocks me over. I managed to kill that one, and then skin it. I go back to the first cougar to commence operation teabag, when out of nowhere, again, another cougar tackles me!

-I stopped to help a lady needing help at a horse carriage on the side of the road. Surprise, ambush. I kill all her thugs, and as she begs me not to kill her, I hogtied her and threw on my horse. I then took her to the train tracks and dumped her there, and watched the train make her go splat. The surprising part? There's actually an achievement for doing exactly that.

-Funny glitch or something. I shot a deer and flew 20 feet or so straight up in the air.

-Pushed a prostitute down a flight of stairs. Euphoria is fun.

-Not really funny or random, but I found that if you draw your weapon on someone, they will draw theirs as well. They'll even start that little talk that you see in stand off moments in movies. If you back off, they will back off as well. I dunno.... That's just so real to me. It's like the NPC AI can actually rationalize instead of just going ballistic anytime you brandish a gun, even after you've holstered it.

So, let's get some stories going! I love reading this stuff!


it's a pornography store. i was buying pornography.

-I once saved a guy's brother from being hanged by bandits. But after killing off all the bandits and being thanked by one of the brothers, the other tried running off with my horse. So I just whistled at him and my horse kicks him straight off a cliff since we were right by the edge. The other surviving brother sees this and begins to shoot at me. So I shoot back and kill him too.

-THE DEATH TRAIN. Because that's what I'd like to call it considering these two separate instances. First, during this one time when I had decided to hop a train going toward Blackwater, some idiot on horseback tries to cross the path of the oncoming train but fails. Well, he survives but his horse gets demolished. And so he runs away. Secondly, during another instant when I hopped a train, my intentions this time were quite clear: kill the conductor while the train is over a rushing river to see where the passengers will go. Well, since there wasn't any other place to run off to, not surprisingly all but one of the passengers decided to jump into the river. And as for the remaining passenger who was in fighting mode, I decided to take him on bare handed and ended up knocking him down into the river as well.

I once had a couple of guys in the middle of nowhere piling up boxes of TNT out of a wagon onto a table, then when they were finished, one of them said something like "I fell like having a cigar, have a match?" Then BOOM!! The both of them blew up sky high taking my stupid horse with them!!!

While riding through the desert I saw a lawman who had 2 escaped prisoners. I hunted one down, and while I turned to ride after the other and shoot him too, I saw him being mauled to death by a pack of about 10 wolves in the distance. Made my job a lot easier.

When up in great plains I had my first encounter with a bear. I could hear the tell-tale signs of a bear but hadnt seen one. I climbed up a few levels of the mountain and was face to face with one. It charged at me and I promptly took it down with my repeater. After i had skinned it, gotten the claws, and the tooth i turned to walk away....and was pounced by a cougar and killed. I felt like that cougar had set a pretty savvy trap for me on that one.

I had to catch some prisoners for the sherrif, I got both of them, killed them, I walked back to receive my payment, a bear came and clawed me, the sherrif shot it, I shot it, killed it, but was then killed by the sherrif.

Many of you may not belive this, but I will tell it anyway.

I was drunk, and I was near Tall Trees, standing on a cliff. All of a sudden, a bear, came and swiped me off the cliff. I tumbled down the cliff, without a scratch on me, and then floated into the river. The current carried me upstream, and stopped nearby Tanners Ranch. At this point, I was just about sober, when a cougar came and clawed me. I was about to die, when a guy came along and shot the cougar dead. The man then shot me dead.

- I was hunting a bounty in Blackwater and upon retrieving the mark alive, I was pursued and taking a lot of fire due to the narrow strip of road leading away from the lake. About this time I enter Tall Trees and begin weaving in and out of the trees to avoid a killshot and sent my horse into this ditch where I stood for a moment and regenerated health. About this time I took out my semi-automatic shotgun (believing that the enemies would come up end of the ditch where I could go automatic and kill them at a point blank range). HOWEVER-- as soon as I take aim, one of the bandits come FLYING over the edge of the ditch and out of sheer reflex and dumb luck I open fire, kill the horse, and the man is then catapulted off one side of the ditch and collides head-first with the opposite side, dying instantly on impact!!!

I took off down the ditch and didn't bother with the other ones, I felt like such a badass even though it was dumb luck.

-With the mauser pistol, I was flying down the Mexican Canyon region and I did this perfect headshot on a moving deer, running passed it only to find it's lifeless body matching my horses speed (Kentucky Saddler $750) not by foot but by CARTWHEEL.


- The "Flowers for a Lady" ending is...just demented... I can't spoil it for you but even if I did, there's this other "interaction" following the inital "WHAT THE *beep*?!" moment that made me click off the game and call it a day.



****SPOILERS******


-The first time I met "The Accountant", I was trying earnestly to play as a good guy and after he told me the tragic story about his acquaintance who was violently shot to death, I was a bit taken aback because I wasn't sure if Marston was the murderer- suddenly my cell phone rings and startles me so I put down my PS3 controller and somehow it lands and depresses RIGHT ON R2 and I insta-kill him. Not only did I shoot him point-blank in the spine, but now he's falling down the side of the cliff to his death... I waited a few minutes to see if The Law would come after me but they never did....... I laughed it off when I found him again in Mexico, then shat bricks when you last meet him and he IS some sort of immortal diety or something.

-Marshall's first mission where they tell you to take the guy alive, I didn't have my lasso so I just shot him in the leg and it worked as well. At the time this was very satisfying and new to me :).

- As Jack, I ran into the usual "bait-and-switch" random interaction with the chick asking for him. And get this- no lie- the guys pop out to ambush me but they simply take aim and..............wait..........

"OH *beep* THAT'S MARSTON'S BOY!" and they take off running.

I was laughing so hard, they got away.

i shot a bear with my buffalo rifle. thats cool. 2 more bears come my way so i deadeye to kill them too. going back to the ranch in beechers hope (this is after the storyline) its empty. but bears are all over the place i start shooting a few then for fun i run through them all only to be attacked and killed by a single boar.

another one is when those random events happen where someone begs for ur help. then steals ur horse after dragging u off, this time they are riding off. the horse gets killed by a cougar i shot the easy lady in the leg, just about to go hogtie her (by this time the cougar is gone....) or so i thought, said cougar kills me not giving me a chance to fight back....

other things i see every now and then is when i travel through west elizabeth on top of the train, and seeing people on horses getting attacked by bears... u see the horse fall down dead but its usually too far in the distance to see what happened to the poor fella... its obvious though.....

reply

There were these two guys by my ranch making TNT boxes when one lit up a cigar and the whole place blew to smithereens! Including me because I hung around to see what they were doing, I thought that that was really funny and random.

And just today I was trying to rob a train when I heard a train whistle getting louder and louder and I thought that was weird so I poked my head out of the passenger cart door just in time to see another train heading straight for the one I was currently on. Needless to say there were no survivors, except for the trains were left unscathed :\

reply

i was in Mexico helping someone out(can't remember who it was) a man came down a hill in an incredible fast pace. He was riding so fast the horse kicks him off right into the water

another great moment was when i stopped to help a woman on the side of the road and i got ambushed. i killed all the guys but my prized horse was killed in the process.
In frustration , I got a new horse and i hog tied her. instead of killing her i left her in the middle of nowhere. Literally the second i turn my back. a cougar comes out of nowhere and kills her


but the weirdest thing i witnessed was in the desert

as i was riding through the desert, i see a man get off his horse and starts pissing on a cactus(yeah that's weird on it's own) but all of a sudden i see another guy riding buy on a horse. he gets off his horse and steals the pissing guy's horse. The guy who is pissing screams something, jumps on the other horse and charges after the guy. i wish i could have seen more but i lost them hahaha.

i also a great glitch i found was when i was picking up flowers. but instead of the flower cut scene he took out a knife and began cutting and blood splattered on the screen hahaha

Someone doing powerslides in a stolen single-horse two-wheeled wagon, and then flipping it when he went off-road and hit the railroad tracks.

Well hell then, I guess I need my pants.

reply

i did powerslides on a stagecoach recently lol.

I was going up to Tall Trees but i was distracted by the phone. When i quickly came back i was off my horse and then i see someone ride off with my horsie! I started chasing after it but then i hear this really loud growl! I turned around and saw TWO grizzly's running at me! I sprinted all the way into town with them chasing me and i was laughing because that would of been a sight to see IRL!

ja431,

The same thing happened to me with Jack! It happens almost all the time!

I seen't you rip a mans jawbone off! I SEEN'T IT!

reply

one thanks for making me laugh at your encounter with the cougers, but the weirdest thing i saw in rdr happened today i was chasing a wild horse and it jumped off a 100 - 200 foot cliff and it landed on railroad tracks that where at the bottom and survived??

reply

a couple of times in blackwater i've noticed people sitting abot one foot from the blackjack table with their arms stretched out in front of them doing nothing and i couldn't join the blackjack game because of them

reply

It's always pretty funny to see someone get off his horse and go take a piss and not even hiding it.

reply

I once lassoed a dog and it started pulling and made me fall flat on my face. What a cool cowboy I am XD

I was in Tall Trees for the first time and I saw a dead goat lying on the ground, I went to it to skin it and While I am skinning it a cougar jumps out of nowhere. I literally jumped a bit at that part XD

In Mexico a guy suddenly started shooting at me and I killed him. And I got Wanted. He started it first! :(

Also, there was once this guy who´s mule was stolen, I killed the thief and then sat on his mule to return it to him and he also started shooting at me. So I killed him. So much for being grateful.

Not the most random or funny movements, but it made me laugh.

reply

I had three happen during Spare the Love, Spoil the Child. First, I jumped off a cliff so that I could kill a bear. I survived and then finished it off. Right after, that I teleported back to the top. Second, Jack's dialogue was muted so it sounded like John was talking to himself. Third, a Jack clone showed up behind him.

reply

I was at home (the ranch) and I ran past Abigail, and accidentally knocked her over, smashing her head into a window. I got a wanted level, and Abigail pulled out a pistol and killed me. WTF???

One strange encounter I had was when I was trying to find those Red Sage flowers for that man trying to build that hoovercraft. It was in the middle of the night, pitch black and all of a sudden a man comes riding on his horse in full speed. He gets of the horse and runs behind a tree and start to pee like a crazy man. You could see the pee coming out from the side, when I tried to go around to see if his genitals would actually show, he pulled up his pants and shouted "You sick man!" and took off on his horse.

Pretty damn funny if you ask me.
