If you want to make big bucks go play FIVE FINGER FILLET in ARMADILLO. To make

your pocket fat keep repeating this pattern:

Access Mexico Early

Travel to the bridge called "Frontera Bridge." Ride your horse quickly to the end of the
bridge and get off the horse, letting it plummet into the water below. Do not call a new

horse. Walk backwards until the railroad tracks start running into solid ground (for a
short distance), turn left and go down a steep slope to the riverbank. There should be
many small bushes by the river here. The music should also switch (it switches to the

music you hear in Mexico). If you don't hear the music, start over. Set up a campsite
when you hear the music and you will find yourself on the Mexican side of the river. To

get back, you have to travel to the bridge called "Romita de la Baya." Do the same
thing with the horse here, let it fall into the river and set up a campsite on the island.
The campsite should be near the edge of the island to the north, either to the left or

the right of the bridge. You can also listen to the music here, when you hear the music
change back to the "American" music, you can set up your camp and you will be back

on the north side of the river.

Homing
We Fire you
encourage Bottles Missiles
to read our updated PRIVACY POLICY and COOKIE
POLICY.

Use Dead Eye while holding a Fire Bottle and your aiming dot will seemingly dissapear.
It's still there, however, and you can pass it over enemies to lock on to them like you
normally would with a gun. Fire the bottle and it will seek out its target like a homing
missile.

Easy Master Hunter Completion (Level 5)

In order to complete the challenge of killing a cougar with a knife, simply wait until the
mission 'At Home With Dutch' (given by MacDougal in Blackwater.

At the point where you are confronted by the cougar, turn around and jump up on the
rock after the cougar comes at you. Since the cougar will not be able to jump up to
you, all you need to do is fall on top of it and spam your knife attack; takes about 3
hits. Skin and you're all set.

Note that this is a later in game mission, so you cannot do this challenge early on.

It's in the News

If you check at the misc section of the newspaper you will see a phrase at the end of

every edition. Enter it and it will be a cheat.

Horse Hopping Getaway

From the front balcony of the Armadillo Saloon, climb over the railing above where

your horse is hitched and you can fall right on to your horse, ready to ride away into
the sunset. It's a nice nod to an old western classic.

Access West Elizabeth / Tall Trees Area Early

There's a cliff and a waterfall in the far northern regions of New Austin -- just above the
MacFarlane Ranch. Enter this area and you'll see "Tall Trees" appear on your screen. If
you can manage to get arrested here you'll get carted off to Blackwater. From here
you can access the full northern map. You'll need to auto save (see 'Save Anywhere'

cheat) and die to return to the southern areas. If you buy the property in Manzanita, it
will prevent you from doing this. However, it is possible to hop the unfinished bridge in
Thieves' Landing to get back.

Hunting Challenge - Knife Task

For the task of killing an animal with a knife, you can weaken the target first (especially
handy with bears) using gunfire before finishing the task with a knife.

If you are by yourself and do not have a partner to back you up with a firearm, you can
try shooting a bear in its head with the Henry-Martini repeating rifle and one knife stab
should kill the target.

Sharpshooting Challenge - Hats Off and Disarm

There is a sharpshooter challenge that involves shooting the hat off an enemy, then
disarming him within 3 seconds.

One solution would be to try doing this during a duel. Hit the hat then aim for the gun
to disarm the enemy.

Another approach is to go into Mexico and shoot enemies with sombreros, as those
hats are a lot easier to sight and hit.

Skip the Skinning

Kill an animal and hop on your horse. Park the horse over the carcass (look for the

small, black X on the map that marks it) and hop off. When you get the prompt to skin
the animal, the horse's presence will prevent the short cutscene from occurring.
Occasionally you'll notice that a similar obstruction -- box or barrel -- will allow you to
skip body-search cutscenes and the like.

Sharpshooter Challenge Level 10 (Disarm Six Without Reloading)

Here's an easier way to disarm six enemies without reloading or changing weapons. Do
the mission with the Gap Tooth Breach hideout (the one with the treasure hunters) and

lay waste to everyone outside the mine.

Then equip a large magazine weapon -- the Mauser is ideal -- and enter the mine.
Once inside you basically encounter a trickle of one or two enemies, so you can easily

disarm them at your leisure.

This slow trickle also means there is ample time for you to restore your dead-eye
meter without fear of being rushed by the enemy.

Another easy way to complete this sharpshooter challenge uses an exploit with the

Dead-Eye system (and it could be patched in a future update):

1. You must be far along enough in the game to have aquired the Carcano Rifle and
level 3 Dead-Eye.

2. Go to the Twin Rocks gang hideout and eliminate the two snipers on the tall rocks

before attempting to disarm the bandits. You must do this because you need to get to
the small wall around the building for cover.

3. Go into cover behind the small wall and wait for a bandit to pop up. Immediately go

into aiming mode to activate Dead-Eye. Instead of painting the weapons, just put your
crosshairs dead on the weapon and fire.

Repeat the same steps over and over until your disarm the six bandits needed for the

challenge. Since you are activating Dead-Eye, you will automatically reload, but since
you don't manually press the reload button, the game doesn't count it as "reloading a

weapon" thus completing the challenge.

Force a Save, Anywhere, Anytime

Occasionally you may be killed by a cougar and returned to your last save after

collecting a bunch of flowers, pelts and whatnot -- fear the reaper no more! If you buy
two horse deeds and enter your item menu, you can select a deed to summon its

respective horse. Each time you switch horse, your game automatically saves. Switch

between deeds on the fly to save your game anytime, anywhere.

Alternately, you can simply change the Audio settings in the Options Menu and the

game will save.

Multiply Your Poker Winnings

This bug is easy to exploit, but hard to exploit CONTINUOUSLY.

1. Save your game near any poker table. 2. Play poker. 3. Go "all-in" immediately, and

press RB to "Skip to your turn." 4. Did you win? If so, press B (to exit) then A (to confirm)
VERY QUICKLY and as many times as you can (B, A, B, A, B, A). If not, load your game

and repeat steps 2-4.

If done correctly you should hear the sound effect for leaving the poker game multiple
times, and, if you wait a brief period, you will notice that your winnings (or even the $25

ante you gave to sit down) are given to you the same multiple of times you managed
to press B, A before actually standing up. If you manage to out 2 people (all-in will

remove players from the table) that's 75$ at the very start of the game given to your

wallet up to 4 times!

Beating All Players in Poker in Armadillo

Note: This will satisfy the requirement for Scrap 3 of Walton's Gang outfit. First put on
the Elegant suit(the one which lets you cheat in Poker. Go to Poker room in the back of

the bar in Armadillo. Play a game and Cheat BUT LET THEM SEE YOU CHEATING. This
will make you duel. Kill or disarm the player that challenges you for Honor or Fame.

After that there will only be 2 players left at the Poker table, play again and get caught

CHEATING again. you duel again. On the Last Poker Player I'd advise NOT to cheat --
the last player is fast and catches you cheating easily.

Now you'll be playing 1 vs. 1. Use this pattern to win: Check or Call THEN Raise and the

Opponent will Fold Every time. If you want the game to go faster and BUST the
opponent out. On your First hand, raise then check or call then raise.

No Reload

When you are low on ammo, simply enter Dead Eye mode to immediately restore your

ammo without having to reload.

Money Exploit

I just figured out how to make an easy $100 every 20 seconds early on in RDR. If you
go to the knife game "Five Finger Filet" in Armadillo you can bet $100 max each game.

The button presses are always the same, so as long as you memorize the sequence it's

a piece of cake. The sequence is:

- GREEN / A - RED / B - YELLOW / Y - BLUE / X - GREEN / A - RED / B - YELLOW / Y

(this pattern repeats). I just sat here for a minute or two and I'm already over $1,000.

Handy if you want some quick cash early in the game.

Infinite Honor

Note: You must be wearing the Elegant Suit for this to work. Find the least expensive

poker game in town. Purposely get caught cheating, so that a "duel" will ensue. Wait
for the "draw" sign to flash and aim at your opponent's right hand/arm in order to

shoot their gun from their hand. This neat little trick will net you +100 Honor. Plus, its
repeatable, since you can just keep getting caught "cheating" in poker.

Master Hunter Legendary Ranks (Multiplayer) & Character Unlocks

There is an easy way to get all the Legendary creature (killing 10 of one animal). When

you explore the area they are in, lead all the animals to a nearby structure (or building).

For the wolves, there is a building on the hill. Now, this is the only one where they will
actually come into the building because it is so run down, but there is a walkway/plank

near the door. Stand on it, and shoot all the wolves, they can't get you.

The boars' hunting ground has the same with a run down half building (by the
shoreline) but they won't attack you in the building.

The cougar grounds probably has the most difficult building. There is a house on the

top of the hill. The best way to do this is have a buddy on horse lure them to your
direction. When the cougars walk in front of the door/windows, shoot them.

The bears' hunting ground is probably the easiest of the bunch. There is a cabin, that

has plenty of open area to shoot the bears from.

And for those who keep asking about unlocking women or legendary characters, those

unlock with EXP points. There's no secret task, just build your ranks.

Online XP Farming

During online free roam, go to a gang hideout and neutralize the enemies there. When
reinforcements are sent, deal with them as well, then loot all the corpses.

After you nab the money and ammunition, leave the hideout and the enemies should

respawn after a short while. You can repeat this process as much as you want.

Cheat List

You can enter the following codes in the Cheats Menu under "Options." Enter the entire
phrase given below to activate the cheat, punctuation included. Capitalization does not

matter. Once a cheat is entered you may toggle them from a master list. If the cheat
effect isn't made obvious by its title, we give a description of it in parenthesis below.

Entering cheats disables saving and Trophies / Achievements! Finally, cheats can often

be found in a box at the bottom of the newspapers you can read in towns.
