Red Dead Online: Frontier Pursuits - Everything You Need To Know

6. The Additional Updates

Before we delve into the most exciting aspects of this new update, the specialties, we should address the additional updates that Rockstar have provided as well. These inclusions alone would be enough to turn a few heads, so we shouldn’t overlook them before continuing to the meat of the update. The list of extras, as provided on Rockstar’s website, is as follows:

New items, weapons, clothing and horse-drawn vehicles

Directional damage indicators to display where your character is hit from

Additional horse breeds

The ability to change your character’s appearance without resetting progress

Expanded custom outfit slots

The ability to name saved outfits

Role-specific Free Roam Events

Increased selling prices for looted Jewelry

Increased movement and animations speeds for more responsive combat (including aiming, cocking and reloading), faster looting and more

Additional game balancing and improvements

This extensive list of goodies will address a number of issues players have with RDO. The variety of new items, cosmetics and horses should make the game feel less bare-boned. Improved outfit slots and the appearance changing option will allow for more cosmetic diversity between players. The improvements to animations and addition of damage indicators will benefit gameplay, and the increased selling prices will reward the player with a fairer economy.

Even before considering the new specialties, this update already shows a commitment from Rockstar to enhance the RDO experience.
