New Red Dead Map Leaked?

Re post because I posted at the end of last page.

The map looks fake as shit. The map we put together on GTAForums was more detailed than this. There are three glaringly obvious facts that this map is fake.

1) Apparently it's an early "build/Devs" map, usually used to hide the fact that it's been made by an amateur and any mistakes can be brushed off as "it's an early build bruh" excuse.

Look at the logo in the bottom left of the map, (they forgot to photoshop out the pic) it has a picture of what looks like an elk, I cannot find any similar pictures anywhere else. Oh but look, the original Tall Trees area has the elk... The excuse has to be "we can only hunt elk bru".

Also look at the red outline around the map and then look at the line just below Black Water, it's clearly been eraser tooled away... How come the rest of the map boundary outline is consistent but then miraculously goes tits up at that point? The point where this supposed new map meets a section of RDR's map? A section that has clearly been photoshopped.

The seemingly stupid mistake of a cross reference to Mafia 3 just kills any credibility for me, we didn't only just find out the name of Mafia 3's city. It was always known.

Sorry but I spent too much time on GTAForums staring at "insiders maps". There's loads of mistakes that scream fake. This guy should be banned just for not looking at the map he was "given"/ being blind.


Edit: The more I look, the more inconsistencies I see. The whole bottom right section of the map boundary is a mirror image... Rockstar getting lazy man...

Edit 2: Look at the O9 & O10 boxes. LOL.

Edit 3: Why are there coloured dots outside the boundary below Tall Trees? Green dot means town and there are two of them in a place we cannot reach...
 
Looks fake as hell, and I can't imagine an "early dev map" being created with such detail, yet in such an ugly way. Like, they'd make fake mountain ranges on the map, outlining topography (which would take a long time, lots of effort, and a good tool), but then also outline everything in messy pink and yellow lines...?

Still, I think it'd be cool if the map were centered on the gulf of mexico, with Blackwater to the west, New Orleans to the right, and this would get me excited... But, this seems pretty fake.

*edit*

Looking at it for a second longer, this is definitely fake. If you look at the region surrounding the top of the map, the brown parts still have topography defined on the map. Yet if you look at the region in the bottom right, the brown parts, it's just solid brown with no topography. Further, that island structure in the bottom right, as another poster mentioned, is just a mirror of itself...

Dude hasn't come back online in a while. They are probably waiting for him to get back to them.



What?
Guys dead serious I have had to go to the hospital with my son he is ok. He has a temperature so just waiting to find out what's wrong with him that's why I have not been online. To update you all I have messaged a mod but not heard anything back yet

Sorry to hear that, I'd tell a mod to lock the thread and forgive you though, the map is fake as shit, the more I look the more amateur mistakes I see. Honestly dude, best to save your GAF account while you can...
Hope your Son gets better man!
 
You were asked to take it down?

That's not how the Internet works.


Edit:

Wait op is saying it's fake now after saying they wanted it closed so people would think its fake. Bruh

Oh boy

Reverse psychology. Says it's fake, so people think he's lying and that it's actually real.

Pretty sure your Elk is Nekoti Rock bru.
Borders and water are scrappy no question, but it's no better on the old section, there's even a stray brush dot on the west side or looks like it.
I'm on the fence, it's obviously not meant to be seen as a release quality map for players, even played off as fake. Definite scrawled over many layers in photoshop feel to it.

I won't question you on your son because that'd be horrible. I hope he's okay.

But I still think this is just a horrible joke that went on too long.

I actually looks like a horse... Yeah it definitely does have that photoshop feel to it.

Anyway I wanna know what this (Pronghorn Ranch) symbol is. It's not on the key.

They should bundle a remastered version on RDR when 2 drops...I'd pre-order that shit RIGHT NOW!

I don't think they're technically able because ex-Rockstar members have talked in the past how the engine for the game barely held together and was a miracle the game made it out the door. lol

I find it odd though that nothing official has still come of the Xbox One BC version given the accidental early access 2 months ago...
 
We'll get a remastered version of RDR (retail $59.99) with a re-worked online mode with full micro transactions like GTAV.
I'd rather never see another Red Dead if the online is anything like the dumpster fire that is GTAO.


RDR's online was perfection. It's a damn shame it's hacked to hell now.

New Bordeaux is based on New Orleans, right? And both are Take-Two games so cross-references aren't impossible IMO.

It doesn't make geographical sense for New Bordeaux to be based on New Orleans since Great Plains is based on Colorado, which is much further south than New Bordeaux.
 
I have no idea what's going on this thread...

OP made a fake thing and spent a lot of time on it
Posted it on gaf
Gaf was like, dude this looks fake due to glaring errors
OP tried to do a IT'S JUST A PRANK BRO when he found out it might lead to a junioring or account ban since he never got it verified by a mod (despite being an active poster since 2006, which at some point you'd at least have a small bit of knowledge about how leaks work around here)
OP said please take this sick nasty shit down before his source gets in trouble, as a nice flourish to his act
Gaf reminded him that the internet is forever
OP got mad while people teased him due to his approach
OP's son got sick (this I believe) so he left
OP said he contacted a mod to get the topic taken down, presumably to slide away from trouble but maybe possibly get verified/get the topic down so his source doesn't get hurt if he is somehow telling the truth

That's about the size of it.

There is absolutely no way they couldn't do it. It CAN be done. What they would probably do is transfer the assests over to the current gen version of the Rage engine.

That's honestly my biggest concern with RDR2. We'll probably get a solid-to-stellar single player and an online mode similar to GTAV, complete with whatever the equivalent of shark cards they come up with for the RDR era.

I doubt we'll ever see another DLC with the quality of Undead Nightmare. Absolutely loved that.

I hope your son is OK.

I'm not going to jump on the "bash the OP" bandwagon. Mistakes, they happen. We've all made them and life goes on.

Lol thank you.
 
As I have stated no fucks are given that you think it's fake I don't care if you think it's fake go ahead but please when it's announced you won't be anywhere to be seen after shit talking me. Idiot



No reason to be hostile bro that stuff is froned upon here

Just wanted to add that there is no need for Shark Cards in GTA online, they're only there to make things go faster. Doesn't bother me much really.

Buy this deluxe horse carriage with golden horse armor for only 50.000 RDR bucks
