New Red Dead Redemption Patch Cleans Up Dirty Poker Cheat
You're going to have to find a new way to bilk the citizens of New Austin of their hard-earned spending money.
In anticipation of the upcoming Myths and Mavericks bonus pack, Rockstar Games is cleaning up some bugs and glitches in its outstanding western Red Dead Redemption with a new title update. The multiplayer changes are welcome, but if you're a fan of exploiting glitches like the poker trick that makes you a wealthy man, you may want to turn down the automatic update. Here is the full list of changes:
- Return of Undead Overrun to original rules (extended sudden death, no explosive spit)
- Fixes for several multiplayer exploits, including invincibility, invisibility, flying, and rapid-fire
- Fix for exploit which resulted in use of Undead weapons in Free Roam
- The addition of an option to exit Undead Overrun without sacrificing XP
- Fix for killing other players in Friendly Free Roam by cooking dynamite
- Fix for a Poker exploit that resulted in rapid accumulation of money
- Fix for occasionally being unable to move after crashing in a wagon
- Fix for Nuevo Paraiso bounties being reset upon loading a save
- Fix for System Link issue on Xbox 360
This patch is available now, and the multiplayer-centric Myths and Mavericks DLC is scheduled to release tomorrow.
