It doesn't impact those who didn't touch the beta though so it's pointless.

More fair I suppose, but am I right in thinking that's a lot of money? Specially if they've reduced prices.
How exactly? Some will start with 15 gold bars and some won’t.
The free gifts are in acknowledgement for playing the beta and sharing problems.
They even gave people who didn't play the beta up to that point enough time to play it and therefore be eligible for the gifts. All they had to do was boot it up, create a character and do a mission.
Not so much to be honest, it won't get you much.
Because the ones who played Beta were performing an important task, helping discover problems, issues and stress testing servers, as well as putting up with countless hours of money grinding to buy things they can now get for cheaper. It's a thank you.
People who didn't play the Beta up to a certain point had no hand whatsoever in the way anything went and get to jump into a game with less of a grind and cheaper thinks to buy.
Neither do those who logged in for one minute and logged out again. They would still get it though apparently.
If you were so disinterested in the online to not even login, then why are you worried about what others have?
I did log in and play it. You know it’s ok to admit you’re wrong about something don’t you? It makes no sense to give people who logged in for a few seconds an advantage over anyone else.
But they still logged into the beta and did character creation, they still played a part in stress testing no matter how little they played.
They couldn't have just logged in for a few seconds though, they would have needed to go through character creation at a bare minimum and likely the missions before online free roam is available.
Any posse on xbox one... it's kinda shit walking around on my own.
I’m still main story but I’ll head to online play soon enough, sure I saw someone else was playing Xbox looking for a posse.
Got the game balancing rewards and slight refund of 28 bucks. Insured my new horse as it’s money now instead of gold bars.
Rank 11 currently, want that rank 18 repeater so I’ll be doing on call missions to try rank up this weekend for XP. Are missions still best way to make xp though? Not tried much of the series/other events

No rush! I'm digital so won't be getting rid or anything.
I have been doing the series deathmatches averaging about $9 a game and some are only 5 minutes, seems to be the quickest way to rank up and get cash.
Hunting as gone a bit shit with the price of farm animals dropping.
I'm at 92.1%
Any tips on killing the legendary gator? Its had me for breakfast twice now..
Tried using guns? Might be difficult bare handed I presume.
It takes multiple headshots then runs right for you
Seriously though, tried sniper with maxed out damage? That's how I kill those feckers, just hunted a legendary fox. If not, try shotgun and explosive bullets if there are such for shotgun.
Scoped it from distanse and headshot it first, and then immediately switched to bolt action rifle, dead eye and 5 more headshots. Think I had to reload and shoot it once more before it died.
Why did I not think to dead eye it.. stupid cnut. Just got a couple more legendaries to go now
I'm growing Arthur's hair and beard to full length but no clothes seem to go with it. He's looking like a bit of a clown. I'm thinking short hair with a long beard might be better.
feck sake. 300 dollars gone missing from my money pile online. Almost rank 18 and no I can’t afford the repeater I wanted. fecking Rockstar.
Just started chapter 4 and subsequently have discovered Saint Denis for the first time. I'm glad I waited until now, i've been avoiding spoilers and videos and i really didn't know what to expect. It's huge and dirty and brilliant. Spent most of the cash I had left ($450) on a new horse as my main horse, that i've had since launch, got hit by a train 
rip Ness.
This game is fecking awesome and such a time sink. I was meant to turn it off hours ago but in that time i've stolen a carriage, gone on a bounty hunt, and finally got my hair and beard trimmed. Also the trapper made me a sweet vest out of the legendary moose pelt.

Email support, they are surprisingly very good . I got an email back within half an hour on a saturday night.
Cool! I’ve done that so I’ll wait for a response
Is that the white(ish) one?

Chapter 6. Need help quick 
Do I get the money or help John? No big spoilers please. I want the money to help John's family, but I'm concerned it'll make me out to be a dick for going getting it instead of going with John.
Edit: I didn't realise it was the big ending. He ded. Does it happen in the same way for everyone?

Do what you think is best
I didn't realise it was the big ending. I chose to get the money for John's family. It didn't go well. I presume he dies for everyone but not in the same way. There better be some vengeance.
If you go with John, it's a similar fate but in a much better manner. I guess in your case, you got stabbed by Micah? If you go with john and have high honor, you get to drift off to death while looking at sunrise. Its fabulous.
I was killed by fecking Micah. How did your Arthur die? Please tell me Micah.
FFS. Getting stabbed to death by Micah is a fate worse than...well any other death. I'm a bit pissed off about it. It's not even that climactic when he does die. He just lies back. For all I knew he was just passing out.
I've sunk loads of hours into it and I get the shit ending by trying to be the badass so fecking Jack can go through college.

if it's any consolation, you get your ass kicked by Micah in any case. It felt good seeing the stag in the end over the wolfThat horse scene was just...
That horse scene was just...
Yeah, the stag was the one good thing after I'd had the wolf most of the way through. It would've been powerful if I hadn't been mostly thinking about how much I hate Micah.
I'm so sorry! Snivelling asswipe
