So they'd make money out of nothing is they started with female characters and then made men!
Calls up Ubisoft! I got this brand new tech for you

Who's doing the OT for wild west online?

I mean I'd take whatever Western game devs want to throw at us since I'm a fan and there are far too few Western titles out there but obviously this doesn't benefit me being PC only.
I did think it was funny on GTAForums where a alleged "Rockstar San Diego Developer" was trying to chime in saying how real the images were and they were RDR2 and only looked subpar because the image had been down sampled.....
GlamFM. Thankfully I locked down the RDR2 OT because phew. lol

The PC Gamer article seems to point out they've been developing this already and kickstarter is now being used to secure extra funding for the project.
Maybe? The 2 screens were obviously early shots compared to the ones they've now officially released but the original leaker said "someone" sent them to him and insisted the first image was RDR2. The funny thing is that obviously the "leaked" shots did more advertising for RDR2 without Rockstar having to say anything...which they've been silent on for 7 months now. :-|

There was a second pic with the title of the game (Wild West Online) and what looked like RDR1 screens, bit naughty if they were.
Edit:
Actually maybe that is just their game, just got the RDR1 look down.
Yo that's definitely RDR1, hell there's just a straight up shot of John's face.

Thank god!
Please, No Marstons unless cameo'd
No sequel..this is the 'Red Dead' franchise
(Revolver, Redemption...?)..
we're not getting a direct sequel..get it out of your minds. It's not an iterative IP from a particular protagonist's perspective. I hate that it's referred to as Red Dead Redemption 2

Rockstar could release a picture of a 2D top down RDR and people would write religious texts about its forthcoming.

Well, they'd have to pay an artist to work on each and every different variation of female model (could takes hours worth of pay), hire texture artist to work on the female textures that differ from the male textures, same artist would also need to work on clothing of different sizes and textures, hire female voice actors for voice overs and grunts, hire a female actress to do motion capture for the female animation (and unless you want awkward Mass Effect 3 Fem-Shep running animations, you do need to have different animations for female models than male ones). You also have to pay the programmers for the time they'll spend working on the female players.
You can't just take the animations, programming, and models from the male models and convert them to female. They'll just mess up and glitch out. It really bothers me that people assume you can just make models super quick and super easy without cost or time. Really down playing the jobs of animators, programmers and modelers.

Well they do
What incredible looking game is this?! Holy fuck!!
The inner frames all look like RDR to me.There was a second pic with the title of the game (Wild West Online) and what looked like RDR1 screens, bit naughty if they were.

Bit shady.
Depends, it's 4k, if I look at it on my 50" TV that only is able to display 1080p it looks pretty amazing my friend.
Here's a quick and dirty down-sample to 1080p of that picture:
And that's a MMO... They aren't usually looking like AAA-Games.

So I guess the full unveil for this title will be Wednesday at 12pm PST/3pm EST/8pm GMT. Likely some footage?

I have no idea if i'm missing something as i've only just seen this, but those are definitely screenshots taken straight from RDR. Might not be the original sources but i found them fairly easily whille browsing google images for RDR-related things:
On the RDR wiki:
A blog about RDR:
https://eightandahalfbit.com/2014/0...utlaw-in-the-old-west-of-red-dead-redemption/
Article from April last year:
http://nerdist.com/leaked-red-dead-redemption-2-map-looks-legitimate/
Unable to find the other one, but there are visually similar things.
If what you posted is something actually from the developers that wasn't just a placeholder image we weren't meant to see, then that seems really untrustworthy of them.

Is that actually from their site? Live? V cheeky.
Could be placeholder before they updated the site.

It was leaked by the same guy who posted the screen shot, I guess it's just placeholder, I've never visited their site.
Just saying if the leaks were intentional then it's very cheeky
Their site doesn't have those screenshots now - so perhaps it was placeholder that was online briefly when they put it online

Maybe it's just me, but the other screenshots in the article make it look like they ripped or straight copied assets from RDR. Though to be fair, there isn't much room of variation in the Old West aesthetics.
