Paging Grief.exe

So late.
Going to be riddled with Rockstar's garbage DRM.
Still hyped.

I bought the title when I picked up a PS3 last year, but I would rather wait for the PC version.

 

[SparkTR]

It would not surprise me to see Red Dead and GTAV 'HD Remasters' for PC/next gen. Seems like an easy source of cash from a publisher that definitely could use it.

 

[joeblow]

Never played it since I figured an HD version would show up one day Hopefully my patience is finally rewarded like it will be for The Last of Us.

 

[Lazaro]

It would be nice to know exactly when the Red Dead Redemption supposed program was added to Windows Compatibility Centre.

I wonder if the recent announcement of the shutdown of GameSpy has anything to do with this.

E3 Rockstar:

GTAV; Definitive edition announced for PC/PS4/X1 - September to mark 1 year of V
RDR Definitive edition announced for PC/PS4/x1: End of November

RDR 2 Announced For Mid May 2016

Believe.

 

[Horns]

Had it on the 360 and PS3. I will buy it again for the pc.

Same here. I played through and beat GTA IV, RDR & GTA V on every single platform it released on. I plan to continue this trend if RDR comes to PC and eventually with GTA V.

 

[Chubzdoomer]

I would so be all over this day one, and I know a ton of other people who would be, too.

I don't know if any Rockstar devs frequent the forum, but if you do, hear me out: If you release Red Dead Redemption for PC, you will not regret it and we PC gamers would be forever grateful!

 

[solarus]

Don't play with my heart.
Just let it go, you know they won't deliver

I've never heard a developer regret a PC release.

 

[SniperHunter]

the game is complete shit

that being said, it is possible RDR2 is around the corner and R* wants to release a HD version on the new consoles and PC.

 

[Baron_Calamity]

I've never heard a developer regret a PC release.

I have... I can't remember when but there was a port that someone did, and it didn't cover the cost to port it. This was either pre-steam or the early days of steam.

 

[GravyButt]

Wish it was to happen but I dont think it ever will sadly

 

[thelatestmodel]

Can we lock this? This isn't happening and the "evidence" is not really evidence at all.

 

[liquidtmd]

I've never heard a developer regret a PC release.

Even when Durante Software Studios released Dark Souls this is true.

 

[Chubzdoomer]

It always irked me that one of the games that Rockstar makes that would get the most benefit from being on PC wasn't on PC. The long, flat desert with some increased draw distances and sharper resolution would be phenomenal on PC.

Max draw distance + 16x AF FTW.

 

[littlegrasshopper]

Oh dont play with my heart.

my thoughts exactly. lol

[MMaRsu]

My cousin of a friends former room mate knows a guy's nephew's sister who works at capcom and said that Capcom are working on a new Megaman game!!!!






No Joke

Uhm better believe it. Her cousin works at R*. She's not undrr NDA. Her cousin told her they are working on Red Dead. She's not a gamer and she has no reasons to lie. Take it with a grain of salt but she has connections. She wears r* shirts that noone else has ( or at least ive never seen them online ).

Take this with a grain of salt but a nephew of a co-worker works at Rockstar. She said they are working on a new Red Dead Redemption game!!!! No joke

 

[iNvid02]

its never too late for RDR to come to PC

 

[DodgyGeezerFella]

I can only assume they started porting this a while ago for PC, getting the code ready in a way that it would also be easily portable for the new consoles (last I heard the code for the game was poorly commented ? Making porting a difficult task). Maybe the PC version has been sitting in wait while they polish up the console versions .....

Then re-release on all 3 platforms with a bigger marketing budget to get maximum sales.

At least, that's the only thing that makes sense to me, that the game shows up on the MS page from a year a go.

Or I'm just dreaming. More likely nothing going to happen.

 

[dex3108]

Not enough money by R* standards. They are used to billions now, dirty PC peasants can't provide them that XD

 

[Kurdel]

Never!

I can't wait to see the game at 4k max settings...

 

[RadioactiveLobster]

I REFUSE to believe it.

That way, when it turns out to be bullshit I am less disappointed.

If it turns out to be true then I am more surprised/excited.

I think I recall Epic being unsatisfied with Gears of War numbers. That was a self-inflicted problem on their part though, they shouldn't have used GFWL drm.

 

[Grief.exe]

That is true, Cliffy and Epic came out with statements on how poorly the Gears of War PC port had performed. Of course, blaming consumers.

In reality, they were using one of the worst DRM systems of all time that actually forced players to pay for XBL Gold at the time to access online play.

 

[Vitor711]

Also, things are so different now. I'd be shocked not to see more multiplatform games consistently getting good PC ports.

A remastered RDR/GTA V on current gen and PC makes total sense. Fingers crossed. Keep meaning to get back to RDR, this would give me more motivation than I currently have with the 360 copy sitting across from me.

Lol,really? One copy sold was one copy too,many then.
Keep that crap out of the PC space, thank you.

 

[SargerusBR]

DONT PLAY WITH MY EMOTIONS!

 

[ICPEE]

Yes please

 

[BeforeU]

so who are those 84 people who voted?

I am don't believe this at all.

 

[Felix Lighter]

I refuse to consider the thought until the official announcement is made. This thread no longer exists in my world!

You could always play for free through, but on "List Play" thing, rather than matchmaking. The matchmaking side was behind the paywall, but that was reversed later on.

Agreed though, GoW PC was a mess, it was broken as fuck on release, and that was primarily down to GFWL (it would crash the game 10 seconds into launching it, depending on where you launched it). Patches were slow thanks to certification, and the game had significant performance issues at the time, a really bad stuttering problem, which was seemingly inherent to the engine at the time (it could run at 60 FPS no problem, but with hitches galore). The multiplayer split between ranked, unranked and list play killed it, along with no official text chat method (had to console command it). I also kept being unable to make the game run with full settings on, because it may work on first launch, but on subsequent launches, the game would display lower quality settings, even though the highest were still selected. Dont forget Xbox Live isn't available in many countries, limiting many from getting online.

Game looked fucking great though, and controlled beautifully. I would love to see a Steamworks re-release with these issues fixed, and preferably a singular MP playlist (2 max) so the pool of players was bigger. Also tidying up some UI issues. I really think it would sell well if they did this .....

 

[BennyBlanco]

As much as I'd love to play it again in 60 fps this doesn't really inspire confidence in me that it's happening.

 

[Krusenstern]

Oh please please PLEASE!!!

 

[prudislav]

Trying to imagine people modding RDR :-D

I'd like people to mod it so that horses are dirt bikes.

Oh dont worry Epic blamed PC gamers again for not buying Bulletstorm. Funny how the problem only happens to their games.

 

[Fractal]

I've pretty much lost all hope of this ever happening, so it'll take much more than another rumor to get my hopes up again. I mean, it's been exactly 4 years since the game was first released...

That said, RDR is one of the few console games of the last gen I really miss not having on the PC, played it on my PS3 a while ago and it was awesome, but the technical issues were really getting in the way. Would love to give it a PC treatment, but as I said, doubt I'll ever get the chance.

 

[Killing_Joke]

RDR is definitely coming to PC.

Spoiler

When PS3/360 emulators are made.

.

 

[Gbraga]

I wish I was optimistic enough to get excited, but eh, don't think it's gonna happen.

Not that I wouldn't love to be wrong...

 

[Herne]

Will not get my hopes up. Will not get my hopes up!

2024 release confirmed.

 

[meanspartan]

How timely of them. Bet they'd release it for $40 or more too, even though it's under $20 on consoles.

 

[Off-Kilter]

Find it pretty difficult to believe Rockstar would prioritize Red Dead Redemption over GTA V.

 

[JaseC]

I've never heard a developer regret a PC release.

Image & Form made no secret of its disappointment with how SteamWorld's PC release was received, but saying that it regrets porting the game would likely be overstating things a bit.

 

[Hip Hop]

I'd pay $60 for it tbh.

 

[Paracelsus]

GTAV is coming to PC around the same time the PS4One release is, it wouldn't be shocking to see them pulling the same stunt on RDR.
