but MVP, u can try horse race. I get all my MVP from horse race

New update incoming to fix the economy. Let's hope the price for provisions is dropped.

The volume is quite low for RDR 2. Is it my problem or everyone is facing the same issue? For this game I have to crank up the volume while playing. I'm using a soundbar & just started this game few days back

I stopped playing because of this with my super loud jet engine PS4. Opened it up clear dust, not much dust in there at all. Replace thermal paste. Still loud. Max volume on game can't block out the PS4 sound to get into it. With RDR gotta be in the mood like the atmosphere when riding along and all that. Waiting for a patch that fixes the volume.

My PS4Pro is noticeable a lot more quieter after I replace the thermal paste, about 50% reduction in noise, what thermal paste you used, PS4 Pro also? I'm using Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut
now I'm having more peaceful time playing RDR2 even without using headphones

and yeah, the volume in RDR2 is a lot more lower compared to other games, almost burst my eardrum when switching to other game using the same vol for RDR2, didn't realized I've set it to the max

No, the game's volume is correct. What you guys are experiencing is the limitation of your sound setup. RDR2 uses a rudimentary form of volume normalization. The game allows you to increase the dialogue volume so that it normalize with other sound effects, but the problem is that its dynamic range is permanently locked to full-range (or what is more known as "wide" in other games).

This means that if you do not have a full range system capable of playing from 20hz-20khz, you will have the phenomenon of "volume issues". So no, it's just the limitation of your speakers that you aren't able to fully enjoy the game's audio presentation.

Not PS4 Pro, is the fat one not bought at launch though maybe a year after? I got the arctic silver based on a video. Can hear it even over the headphones so really no mood play the game. It's probably time for Pro upgrade but reading the subreddit even some Pros have the issue. Should bite the bullet and go with upgrade anyways?

I use a Pro, forced the game to play at 1080p mode - it's pretty quiet (under 44db from 2 meters away), even on hot days without air cond (then again my room is rarely ever hot so...).

My previous fat one was loud also, my Pro was loud as well, thought it was normal until I heard my friends' unit, confirmed mine is loud
If wanna upgrade to Pro, go for the latest model, RDR2 bundle or the CUH-7200 model, most said it's the quieter one

mine previously still sounds ok on 1080p mode, it's unbearable when it's on 4K mode
now after replacing the thermal paste, 4K mode is quiet, normal play I can hardly notice the fan now

after opening up my Pro, Sony PS4 manufacturer really did a poor job of applying the thermal paste on CPU, mine was only 80% covered, and ori paste quality I think is pretty poor as well, some part on the CPU already cake up, while some still runny

Cool guess time for upgrade. My room not hot either probably console is at end of its life now.

because of heating issue, u all prefer to play using CD or digital one??

You just need to change the fan, that's all. The bearings on the fan is probably well worn out by now, that's the contribution to noise.
"End of life" is actually a myth. I could show you my PS3 phat, the original hot-as-hell 60GB version and it runs like quiet simply because I've changed out the fan and clean out the system. That's all there is to it.

Of course if you want to go for a Pro for the reason of upscaled-4k, then that's a different topic.




What does playing on disc or digital have anything to do with heat? The game loads off the hard drive regardless of where you bought the game from lol.

Does the crew working in Rdr2 online? I never ever seen any crew member online when pressing the left button.

I'm just frens do boost MVP trophy, U need find 4 frens and create posse. then go join race horse and kick other player out from race.

kind of give up coz last night won 3 races but other people got MVP.
it appears those who kill a lot even without doing the race will got the MVP

I really hated how they neutered the free arabian horse so much. Feels like it's even slower than kentucky saddler sometimes, it tires so easily too. Horse cores deplete for no reason (probably a bug idk) which made me stuck with the scrawny nag the whole time.

somehow this is noticeable in story mode, too - i rarely feed my horse previously,
but now - it's like wow, 2-3x per gaming session.

the cores deplete like no tomorrow now.

the horse cleanliness is a problem too (story mode), where the 'brush' red icon
pops up almost every 15mins or so.. and i literally brushed my horse 2-3 times per session,
but on-and-off the icon pops up again afterwards.

Selling my copy. Pm if interested. Price is negotiable
