OK so I've only played for 2 days now and have not had much time with it however the Single Player looks to be very deep just like GTA IV. The multiplayer part is where I am disappointed. Most of the things you can do in the single player can not be done in Multiplayer. No Poker, no lasso, most of the towns are empty as you can't buy equipment. The Free Roam multiplayer seems to be just going from hangout to hangout and killing the AI guys.
To me that part gets boring pretty fast. Sure there are other game modes like CTF and TDM but who buys a Rockstar game for those game modes when they are done better in other FPS's? I was hoping for a more rich Free Roam experience in Multiplayer and while its not a complete Epic Fail it was fun to go out and shoot the shit with your fellow clanmates while killing some AI guys. I am still holding out some hope here and will run a RDR Op on Saturday, perhaps with more people it will be more fun.
Although I have done quite a bit of reading up on the game since I rented it and the Mplayer seems to have a fair amount of issues, some of them we ran into while playing last night. Things like going invisible, enemies go invisible, guns go invisible, horses go invisible, connection errors where people just get dropped, I experienced one where when I accepted an invite from Tac's game and it got hung up in the loading screen for like 5 min I had to quit the entire game back to the PSN homepage as it was locked (another known issue).
I would like to know what other peoples thoughts are on the game.
Like I said I think the Single player will be fine but the MP part will be something very short lived in my opinion.
