Talk:Red Dead Redemption II

How do you edit titles? I'm asking because seeing "Red Dead Redemption" written as "Red dead redemption" irritates the living hell out of my OCD. Pyr0m4n14c (talk) 20:18, 12 December 2016 (EST)

==Delete it and start again is the fastest way MoviePropMaster2008 (talk) 20:21, 12 December 2016 (EST)

Yeah sorry about that, took me about 15 minutes to figure it out but I fixed it. Thanks for the heads up.

Is there even a trailer available? --Funkychinaman (talk) 20:53, 12 December 2016 (EST)

There's been a trailer up on Youtube for weeks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmA6MrX81z4 --Aidoru (talk) 21:01, 12 December 2016 (EST)

Yeah, a trailer dropped October 20. Blew up the internet. There weren't any super good shots of weapons, but here's what I saw:

• A man walking a horse with a deer on its back is holding some kind of carbine (like a full size Spencer or Springfield Trapdoor that was cut down or something).
• A man leaning against a stagecoach looking at vultures pecking at a coyote corpse is holding what looks like a double-barreled shotgun.
• A gunfighter is holding a Winchester rifle.
• A shot of seven riders shows them with Colt SAAs, one with a Henry rifle, and one with a sawed-off shotgun.

Could be I started this a little early since it won't be released until next fall. Based on the poster they released the only other discernible firearm is possibly a pair of Colt 1860's carried by the 2nd character from the right.--Eighteen98 (talk) 21:16, 12 December 2016 (EST)

Spring 2018

So Rockstar just announced that the game is delayed until next year but they did drop some new images including a good shot of some revolvers.--SeanWolf (talk) 16:10, 22 May 2017 (EDT)

Scholfields?

Smith & Wesson No. 3s, same as in the first one. Screenshots there also show a Single Action Army and Spencer 1860. I expect most of the weapons from RDR to return. I think the available screenshots are enough to start a proper page for this game, though. Spartan198 (talk) 17:16, 22 May 2017 (EDT)

My bad, S&W Model 3s are Schofields. Spartan198 (talk) 17:19, 22 May 2017 (EDT)

Oh man, some of those screenshots, especially of the forest, look gorgeous. They've seriously got some top notch environmental artists on their payroll.--Aidoru (talk) 00:23, 23 May 2017 (EDT)

New page

Since we have some actual guns to identify now, I've recreated the main page. Spartan198 (talk) 08:19, 14 June 2017 (EDT)

Rifle ID

Bill Williamson is holding a rifle in this cap, but it's hard to make out because of the lighting.

Carcano M91 Long? Spartan198 (talk) 13:34, 2 October 2017 (EDT)

More likely a Krag or some such, look at the cocking piece near his thumb. Black Irish Paddy (talk) 14:10, 2 October 2017 (EDT)

Yeah, I think you're right. I was confused by what looked like a cleaning rod sticking out underneath the barrel (which none of the Krags pictured had), but looking more closely, it appears to be some kind of graphical error. Spartan198 (talk) 09:09, 3 October 2017 (EDT)

New revolver confirmed

The Double Action revolver from the first game is confirmed to be coming back --Slemke1998 (talk) 11:08, 19 December 2017 (EST)

Been bugging me, the Double Action Revolver would be the Colt New Army and Navy so why the link to the New Service? Black Irish Paddy (talk) 16:55, 25 March 2018 (EDT)

There's no page for the M1892.--AgentGumby (talk) 17:36, 25 March 2018 (EDT)

I didn't M1892 I said Colt New Army and Navy which the M1892 falls under as a government order which for the purposes of gameplay and story would be unnecessary because the commercial model of it is the New Army and Navy. The M1892 is just a military adoption of the Colt New Army and Navy, which does have a page. That's why I was wondering why the link is to a different revolver. Black Irish Paddy (talk) 17:42, 25 March 2018 (EDT)

Trailer 3 + fresh articles with images

This is the site with the images, a few of which have the Jorg-Kraggson rifle from the first game, the spencer carbine, some sort of repeater (probably the henry) and some sort of shotgun https://www.hobbyconsolas.com/reportajes/avance-red-dead-redemption-2-ps4-xbox-one-exclusiva-198494 this one aswell: http://www.jeuxactu.com/red-dead-redemption-2-rockstar-repousse-les-limites-de-l-open-world-113716.htm?utm_source=api&utm_medium=113716&utm_campaign=Twitter

here's the third trailer btw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaW0tYpxyp0

I'm like 90% sure I saw a Winchester Model 1897 shotgun in that trailer. --PyramidHead (talk) 12:55, 3 May 2018 (EDT)

They're reusing the preexisting properties from RDR so I don't think there'll be much in the way of new weapons probably just variations on existing ones to save resources. Black Irish Paddy (talk) 19:06, 3 May 2018 (EDT)

I have a repeater here.

I'm leaning toward a Henry, but I wanted to get some opinions. Spartan198 (talk) 13:56, 23 May 2018 (EDT)

It's a Henry, the lack of fore-end and the clear to see twist barrel prove it. Let's hope they figured out that that thing under the gun is the magazine follower and it moves. Also you see the receiver in the same picture that shows the Carcano, it's hanging muzzle down over the pommel of the saddle. I knew they were using the preexisting resources and properties, let's hope they re-skin that Carcano to something a bit more accurate to the time huh?

New Gameplay video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dw_oH5oiUSE Those are some nicely detailed weapon animations.--Aidoru (talk) 12:55, 9 August 2018 (EDT)

I'm probably wrong but during the segment about the camp system I think a saw a cap and ball colt in Arthur's holster. There was also a browning auto 5 later on --Slemke1998 (talk) 16:53, 9 August 2018 (EDT)

I haven't watched the trailer yet (I'm knee-deep in Sicario right at the moment), but I will later and if there's anything worth capping, I'll do so unless someone else wants to go ahead and do so. Spartan198 (talk) 19:34, 11 August 2018 (EDT)

There's a new sniper rifle.

Rolling Block Carbine?

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Remington Model 1867 Rolling Block Carbine - .50-45

Spartan198 (talk) 20:46, 13 August 2018 (EDT)

Rolling Block Rifle same as the first game. Black Irish Paddy (talk) 21:54, 13 August 2018 (EDT)

It seems that the all guns will just return from the first game. It is worth noting that in this case it will be more correct than there. --Slon95 (talk) 08:23, 15 August 2018 (EDT)

Best gun detail of any Rockstar game yet?

You can see the detail right down to the file marks here: https://i.imgur.com/wLeXIwv.jpg brasco

From everything I've read online, this game seems like Rockstar's most detailed depiction of firearms in their history.--Aidoru (talk) 21:17, 20 September 2018 (EDT)

Maybe in terms of detail, but they're really foregoing the historical accuracy in this one. The Browning M1917 returns (so it would appear ALL (if not most) of Redemption's weapons are going to return.). Could have made it a Maxim 1895, but oh well. -User:1morey September 21, 2018 6:23 PM (EST)

Did you see the screenshot that is now on the game page? The machine gun has been re-modeled and it now has spade grips and what appears to be the fusee spring cover on the left side. Considering these details, the designers must intend it to be a Maxim and not a Browning.--Phillb36 (talk) 20:33, 22 September 2018 (EDT)

The fact that they have weapons jamming, weapon degradation from mud and water exposure, and separate buttons for firing and recocking weapons just make me super excited. I hated how weak and unimpactful the guns in GTAV felt.--Aidoru (talk) 02:36, 22 September 2018 (EDT)

It will be really cheap, if they just transfer all the weapons from the previous game. --Slon95 (talk) 08:10, 21 September 2018 (EDT)

Yeah, some new weapons would be nice. I would like to see a couple different bolt actions instead of just the Krag.--Phillb36 (talk) 20:33, 22 September 2018 (EDT)

I just want a Burgess shotgun that I can whip out from under a duster and blast miscreants with.--AgentGumby (talk) 08:45, 21 September 2018 (EDT)

Gameplay Trailer #2

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lb-tlY6ytk8 Finally get to see some first person perspective gameplay.--Aidoru (talk) 23:56, 1 October 2018 (EDT)

Is it a Browning or is it a Maxim?

The page states the Browning 1917 was replaced by the Maxim 1895 for the new game, however the models look almost identical unless I'm missing something?

--Brasco (talk) 14:19, 2 October 2018 (EDT)

This is Maxim. But the tripod is from Browning. --Slon95 (talk) 16:10, 2 October 2018 (EDT)

The RDR2 model has the distinctive spring box of the Maxim. --Aidoru (talk) 17:59, 2 October 2018 (EDT)

New weapon

One of the pre-order incentives includes a rifle dubbed ingame as the "Lancaster Varmint Rifle". (looks to be a small caliber muzzleloader): https://i.redd.it/m1thsegj01o11.jpg (Not the shotgun, but the other long gun on Arthur's back) - User:1morey October 3, 2018 3:48 PM (EST)

Looks like some flavor of generic single shot .22 rifle that would've been more common than dirt in 1899 given everyone and their mother were making some subvariation of that basic idea. Given the name "Lancaster", I'll guess it's some ersatz version of Winchester and thus would be some variation of Winchester single shots you might be able to somewhat narrow down on. -- PaperCake 5 October, 2018 22:02 (EST)

High Roller Double action revolver

A PS4 exclusive what model is this supposed to be?--Brasco (talk) 21:08, 5 October 2018 (EDT)

It looks like just an engraved version of the same Colt M1892 New Army & Navy Revolver. --Slon95 (talk) 21:24, 5 October 2018 (EDT)
