Red Dead Online: 10 Tips & Tricks To Ensure Victory Every Time

4. Communicate With Teammates

Again, although we can't guarantee that every lobby you hop into in Red Dead Online will be populated by amiable individuals with a cooperative spirit, but it's always worth a shot to see if anyone wants to chat and work together in the game's team-based playlists.

This'll no doubt already be the case if you've posse'd up, but if you're solo-queuing and find yourself having to capture a set amount of objectives, or just happen to be engaged in a good old fashioned team deathmatch, it's worth striking up a rapport with your temporary comrades. It'll help you figure out where enemies are, when to lend a helping hand to your teammates, and when to take certain objectives.

It's not essential by any means obviously, but if you're looking to get the best experience online and want to use every tool at your disposal to get the drop on the competition, then communication is a handy thing to learn.

Content Producer/Presenter

WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well. In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
