Another month, another Red Dead Redemption 2 PC leak/rumour. GTAforums’ member ‘rollschuh2282’ shared some PC settings from Red Dead Redemption 2’s companion app, suggesting that a… wait for it… PC version is under development.
What’s really interesting here is that according to member ‘Spider-Vice’, these aren’t mere leftovers from Grand Theft Auto 5. In other words, these leaked settings also hint at a PC version so it remains to be seen when Take-Two will officially announce it.
As Spider-Vice noted, there are some differences between these Red Dead Redemption 2 PC settings and those for Grand Theft Auto 5. For instance, there is a reference to DirectX Feature Set 12_1 in these new settings, suggesting that RDR2 PC will support Microsoft’s latest API.
Moreover, some of the graphics options from GTA 5 became sliders in RDR2, such as refresh rate. Also, it appears that Rockstar has integrated some extra things to the R* Editor menu, and all graphics options now have an Ultra preset (Grand Theft Auto 5 did not have such a present).
Now while there are noticeable differences between the GTA5 PC settings and these leaked Red Dead Redemption 2 PC settings, it appears that some of the previous settings that were leaked a while back are absent from these settings (which could mean that these RDR2 PC settings may not be indicative of those that will be featured in the final game).
Still, the fact that there are graphics, system, UI, Control and Display PC settings for Red Dead Redemption 2 is something that should not pass unnoticed.
Those interested can find all the Red Dead Redemption 2 Companion App codes here.

” In other words, these leaked settings also hint at a PC version so it remains to be seen when 2K Games will officially announce it.”
2K Games?What?
Obviously Take-Two, fixed
After the astronomical sales of GTA V on PC.
The question now is not whether Red Dead Redempition 2 will reach the PC, but rather when RDR2 will arrive on the PC, but I’m sure it will be very soon !!!
Imagine getting excited for DX12 when 90% of the times it’s a straight up downgrade from DX11. Sure you get raytracing but why would that matter when 90% of the map are open, huge environments like in Exodus.
BFV runs DX12 so poorly.
And with that said, I don’t know why there isn’t more of a push for Vulkan. DX12 is garbage and it’s clearly the loser when comparing to Vulkan, yet DX12 is being constantly pushed.
I guess it’s time for we have that talk about money.
Haha, well said my friend. That mighty dollar.
You two should get a room. Every time I peer over your comments, I nearly catch a load in my eye from all of your circle-jerking.
It’s not our first we can still get it up bro. You should use the same ointment we use. It’s called Logic 3000. Comes in a 200 ml or a 500 ml bottle. Just rub it in your tip and it’s off to the races, Punk ?
Nobody should buy this, intead of treating us like the main platform they treat us like the last.
Pffftt, it will outsell every game on PC to date. PC gamers are more peasant than console gamers these days. Don’t believe, just look at all the hype for Destiny 2 coming to steam. As if it wasn’t already on PC to begin with. The average PC gamer is not like they once were 20 year sago. These new breed are what i like to call Xbox-EXpats.
True, these so called hardcore PC gamer will play shooting games on PC 24/7 but they can’t play basic PC genre’s like strategy, city building, tycoon games etc. Their attitude like these games are for kids. smh.
And they’re right.
Found the PC peasant.

“These so called hardcore PC gamers will play shooting games on PC 24/7 but they can’t play basic PC genres like strategy city building tycoon games etc”
*Looks at sales of AAA shooting games on all platforms*
Consoles both singlehandedly outnumber PC’s numbers. Nice try tho you damn braindead normie consoler.
Exactly my friend… I notice that. They’ll play shooters all damn day/PvP and call it a day. They have the most powerful device and all they use it for is csgo or some Ubisoft PvP filth… I myself is trying to get Back into strategy Games, these are a whole other level of enjoyment.
You hold a very high opinion of yourself don’t you?
A well optimized port of this will likely change pc gamers minds. worked for GTA V. it was worth the wait according to the pc reviews.
No i don’t care, who bought GTA 5 on PC is a fking retrd. “PC REVIEWERS”
Rofl in 2019 people still need to read reviews?
Yes absolutely!
It’s supposed to be an insult, it’s on purpose.
Not at all. You can pretty much get to understand someone basing on videogames, movies, and music taste.
You really can actually, you can understand much of a person, not totally, but a big part of them. No that cannot really happen, as even if i don’t like something i can recognize its quality, and if it doesn’t have quality liking it makes you kinda retarded, but ofc free to do whatever you want.
You can, with not doubt you can, well actually not anybody can, but some can, and most of the time i can do that, and very rarely i’m wrong.
No i’m not wrong.GTA 5 is for normie consoletards and that’s all, it’s not tastes again, stop using tastes as an excuse for everything, not everything is about tastes, actually very few things are about tastes only.
No it’s not only about taste, you need to learn to distinguish between tastes and quality, and GTA 5 hasn’t go no quality, my opinion is based on my long experience with videogames, something nobody or close to nobody has, especially on consoles, you’re on the internet, retrd is a common word used here, not sure you realize that, it’s mostly used to refer to stupid/below average intellingent people. You find ironic i have a MGS avatar? Surely MGS is not as normie as GTA, not even close, but i like the game, it’s not like i’m asking everyone has to like it, otherwise they have a superiority complex, MGS has many more qualities GTA could ever hope for, yet i’m not saying it’s an ultra high quality game, i just like it, feel free to think it’s a normie game, but it really isn’t – it’s actually deeper than most understand, and it’s famous because many like it and find it a masterpiece, but for the wrong reasons, that’s what i was talking about earlier.
I just know better, that’s all, i don’t care what you think, now stop bothering me, and go play GTA 5 consoletard.
Already done that, you can suck my dck you stupid consoletard. Also get the fck away from this site, it’s no place for consoletards like yourself
Good to know you’ve dabbled in your stupid consoletardness

Good job.

Good job…Again
Your consoletardness really is shining here. Now you’ve also started inventing things i see…I never said MGS is a masterpiece, i just said it’s a superior videogame in every way compared to that consoletard game of GTA 5, besides, you sound a bit butthurt you little tardino, did i touch your favorite game? Poor thing, you must be suffering…
It’s not inferior just because it’s a console game, it’s inferior because it’s just inferior, end of story, being a console games only makes everything worse, I’m sorry, you’re alone here, because i’m no consoletard, because i don’t own any recent console, and don’t like any of the videogame there are there, and most of those called masterpieces from you consoletards are just mediocre above average videogames, but how can you consoletards know this, since you’ve been fed the worst possible junk coming from the videogame industry for years…Partially it’s not even your fault, but it kinda is since you have no interest in switching to a totally superior platform which is the PC, just because you’re all attached to a couple of slightly above average videogames you consoletards label as masterpieces. Also i’ve already asked you to stop bothering me, keep like this and i’ll block you, since i really have no interest in wasting my time with another consoletard who came here just to bother me and other PC gamers.
Don’t worry i don’t get hurt, because people in real life actually listen to what i say, since i know much better than them when it comes to videogames, they only have to learn from me in that regard.
Do i really need to explain what’s wrong with GTA? I mean just look at its gameplay, look at the story (not just GTA 5, pretty much all GTAs), it might have been an ok title when it basically revolutionized the genre, but now? It’s just selling because console gamers are a bunch of tards, and they’re spreading to PC in the latest years, failing to understand that PC gaming also has a mentality behind, it’s not just a time-passing hobby like they’re used with consoles. I definitely touched your favorite game didn’t i? Not that i care honestly, i’m not going to lie just to avoid hurting your feelings. You might like GTA’s story more than MGS, i don’t honestly care, but there’s no doubt behind MGS story, it’s much more articulated and complex compared to GTA’s and the gameplay although being linear (MGS 5 not so much) is much more polished and well-finished and fits much better with the whole game, soundtrack is created for the game on purpose (for most of the games of the saga) and it’s at a pretty good level compared to the GTA radios tracks which are common radio songs for normies. Anyway MGS is a PS exclusive, another thing you seem to not know…I can definitely judge people for whatever they do, like you and others are free to judge me, but the difference here is superficiality and expertise which most of them lack of compared to me at least in this matter.
See what’s the problem, how can i take anything you say seriously if you think videogames are entertainment only and it’s just a time passing hobby, that’s the very reason i can think myself a superior user in that regard, i just don’t see it for just what you see it, it’s way more, there’s way more behind than just entertainment and a passing hobby, much more, and the main problem of you casual/consoletards fake gamers is that you don’t see it, and try to convince who does otherwise. I actually kinda like old GTAs but i don’t think they can be labelled good games, and i don’t do that, i played most of them tho, and the fact hasn’t changed, that’s the difference between MGS and GTA. MGS has evolved it changed the story and gameplay was slightly different each game, MGS 5 even tried to add an open world component, that honestly doesn’t work in that kind of games, that’s why MGS 5 is the worst of all, but still a good game overall, you still fail to understand why MGS isn’t a normie game actually, and instead of GTA 5 although i explained it why, much deeper game, pretty complex story and everything, the gameplay is linear but well done it works perfectly with the game, it has a goal. While GTA has nothing of this, there’s nothing it’s a soul-less game. I honestly am a special snowflake if you want to name me that, just like any other videogames enthusiast there is, and there’s not many left, because very good games haven’t come out in a while besides a few titles. I’m free to judge anyone, just like they are, but i already said this, you’re also free not to judge, but you can’t ask anyone to not judge because you don’t. Casual gamers, and especially console “gamers” are what i can refer to as consoletards or normies or both, or even casualtards because they’re most of times too stupid to understand more complex games, and often they even fail to that. You play videogames just for the sake of it, and because you only want to have fun or entertain yourself, i play videogames as a life style, i look for particular and i’m able to appreciate the art and the creativity, and see how it all fit together. I’m done.
yeah. but you don’t represent the millions that did buy it on pc.
You answer to yourself? Anyway i don’t care the millions who bought it are all braindead normie fake gamers.
I actually agree with you… but don’t use the word “normie” ffs. Makes you look like a tool.
Why not, it’s exactly what they are, it’s the perfect term to use to describe them, if you think i’m a tool, i’m nobody to change your mind, but i’m just expressing what i think and honestly sounds pretty objective to me.
Calling someone a “normie” makes it sound like you have some kind of superiority complex.
Well i feel superior compared to a normie, so what?
And you know this rubbish will be 150 GB. These idiots have no respect for storage space.
fitgirl is the way to go.
Install size doesn’t change. Fitgirl or no Fitgirl = 150 GB.
less space to store them.
besides, you can choose to not download multiplayer files or videos and stuff which saves you more.
You know whats funny about that? Is that some pirate/modder online can separate the game so you only download what you need. While the developer can’t, which reminds of that bloody Doom 2016 game… The game is over 94 GBs, and you can’t just download the single player. You have to fill your SSD with garbage in order to play a 10-15 hour Sp campaign.
i wish we only had a game size struggle rather than 99 percent of games being dog shet.

You’re very, very, very wrong my dear!
You never release a beta AFTER the final project, if you know what I mean.
Yeah nice excuse, GTA PS3 version from PS4 version didn’t change that much, it was slightly more polished, and graphics was a bit better, but nothing major, i expect the same for this.
It was just a joke, indeed.
But you don’t need to whine that much, if you choose one and only platform, you’re subjected to experience this kind of thing. It’s not the devs fault, it’s nobody’s fault. The game is there, you’re the one in “the wrong” place to enjoy it. And I can’t see any problems in playing something years after that one little friend of yours. If the game is good (not the case here), it’ll be good forever. I don’t see peeps complaining about the release of Halo on PC, on the contrary, everybody is excited about it.
And soon or later EVERY GAME will be available on PC, devs want it or not the emulator industry will never die.
(Sorry for bad english)
Your english is more than fine.
The fault is theirs, because normally someone who develops a game develops it for all platforms, just to increase the potential income, it’s kinda logic honestly, or at the very least for the best platform, which is no doubt PC, for many obvious reasons, but no, since they’re paid exclusives they choose to release the game only on the platform that paid them, and that’s what i’ve never been cool with, especially now that Epic has brought this very same thing on PC, but kinda failing for the moment. You’re damn right this isn’t the case, GTA 5 wasn’t a good game, it was kinda mediocre, and having to wait a year after the initial release for such low quality game kinda sucks, needless to say that it was developed with PS4 in mind, and you can see the limitations it has. “If a game is the game is good, it’ll be good forever” damn right, but again not the case, i was only hyped for one game on console, MGS 5, but eh, they released it even on PC and i bought it instantly, hopefully some day i’ll be able to replay the entire saga on the PC, instead of borrowing a PS3 to play MGS4. Emulators are improving, but they’re very far from that quality level a PC gamer looks for, even the most emulator-friendly game runs kinda bad on those emulators, imagine those that run bad…

Shall we have another look at Master Raceâ„¢ sales versus filthy platform sales, Mr R. Tard?
Just go back to your Fortnite and leave adults alone already.
Block him honestly, he’s a renowned consoler tard, don’t waste your time with him, people like him deserve to fking die in a fire.
I would feel sorry for the fire.
“People” like her has to suffer in this world until the end of times.
The horrible horrible load times was what ruined GTA 5 for me on PC, unless this game has much much better load times – Ill settle for having played it on PS4, with the horrible load times on that platform.
Ever heard of an SSD?
yes
I have dual NVME M.2 drives in raid 0, still GTA 5’s load times were a*s.
Have anything else to add without checking your statements validity, captain smartypants?
GTV doesn’t give a flyin fk whether you got SSD or not, at least the “online” mode.
It takes FOREVER whatever you got the game on….
Then you are talking about GTA Online… The loading time are indeed infernal… But SP is OK.
Not buying. Rockstar treats PC players like sh*t.
And they treat everyone like nothing but walking wallets.
A business hoping to make money from all of its customers?? Huh, imagine that…
Totally understandable position. I’ll likely begrudgingly but it just because there’s no other option for Western games. I’m done with GTA though.
it took me years before i bought GTA 5 and i dont even play the dam game
wasnt that great mp heists were the best part
bought it to mod it but never got around to actually doing anything
there is a nice racing mod.
I still haven’t bought it.
(By the way, have you seen Bad Guy?)
oh you mean he who shall not be named KI….? i mean that peasant and EPIC SHILL
No, the Korean drama.
You’re not missing anything really.
That’s because GTA V is not a good game. It’s me for 14 year olds that wanna play make believe Hiester/tough guy/im from the good guy. The game is so damn boring. I tried offering it 3x and have quit everytime after 15-30 minutes. It’s a very bad game, nothing you haven’t done before.
Honestly, it’s a bad game because the writing is just plain terrible. That and so much content got shifted over to the huge mess that is GTA Online. I was a big fan of the series, but can’t even bring myself to finish the story in this one.
You know, after all these years your comment made me realize that. It’s not that the game suck, which it does… It’s because there main focus was ONfuqinLINE. They took the GTA franchise and turned it into some always-online GAAS, and no one even noticed. So it’s basically not GTA game. But you slap, online & pew pew together; the casuals will always come running with their credit cards. Man, thanks for that you filled in the missing link with, “so much content got shifted over to the huge mess that is GTA Online”. Genius man, respect.
Agreed… it can be fun the first time. But when you replay it you realize it’s pretty sh**ty. The brand name will sell anything they sh*t out tho
like i dont want to defend gta 5 but its one of the most selling games of all time … to say its bad game is very retarded
I think the Single Player is pretty good, I’ve played it for 3 times, once 100% because the gameplay alone and the world is so fkin cool.
But the online is the worst POS PC gaming has ever seen, it’s a fkin disgrace.

Dude, the PC version of Max Payne 3 and GTA V are absolute masterpieces of optimization.
If you want to try masterpieces of porting and optimization to PC play MGS 5.
Yeah, I wasn’t a fan of MGS 5, but god damn that game was solid when it came to optimization.
MGSV is a last-gen game with barely a few more current-gen wrinkles. So Meh.
It’s probably the best porting ever done
No they weren’t, GTA V had terrible optimization. Look at that load in menu and frame rates all over the place. For a game that doesn’t look that great to begin with. It has a bunch of rubbish in the Graphics menu. I doubt any of them even work. Don’t get fooled by quality and abundance. Rockstar uses a technique many magicians in Hollywood used called, “slight of hand”. They use loading screens and other trickery to mask how terrible their games are optimized. They ain’t fooling no one.
Max Payne 3 had fake loading messages to force you to watch the cutscenes.
GTAV was a whaler, designed to squeeze people with microtransactions.
Rockstar is a sh*t company that doesn’t respect consumers and hates the PC platform, RDR2 is most likely going to be another whaler and crippled by intrusive DRM.
Who said anything about buying?! I will still play after sailing the high seas!
Reasons I’m not buying.
1. It’ll be Epic Exclusive
2. The game is flat-out boring.
It definitely won’t as Rockstar has their own launcher.
pirating and buying is the same thing, it’s a great game, worth pirating.
After the hype settled down, most people said the first one was more fun and had better pacing.
Sadly the first one will probably never release on pc
yup better writing too, 2 is too pc.
pc as in politically correct or pc as in pc the platform?
well in rdr 1 you walk into a saloon and you hear “jews control the american government”
that’s true, both the saloon guy’s statement and yours.
I got to chapter 4 and couldn’t force myself to play it anymore on ps4. It’s a BEAUTIFUL game but my god it is boring aF!!!
In GTA 5, Boring AF is an under statement. I got to the planning of the 1st heist, I don’t even know what chapter that is and I just clicked uninstall for the 3rd time. The most messed up part is that they don’t have the Single Player seperate from the online download. So you have to download all that rubbish to play the main boring Azz rubbish. Ughhhh.
The gameplay was as fun as the install lol
One of the best games I’ve ever played.
I hate that the pc versions of Rockstar games are always months later but we can be happy they release a pc version at all…
And these games are extremely expansive to make so they have to do everything to maximize sales
Months later? You mean 3-5 years later. You wish it was months later.
Dude, you really need to play a little bit more.
Or you just like boring games, right?!
It is not boring its just slower paced and not so over the top.
Everyone like different things, but you can’t deny the attention to detail in this game is amazing 🙂
Indeed, like the horse’s balls for example!
LOL
I’m just teasing you, the game is not a masterpiece, but it’s not bad at all.
Hopeful for some ray tracing support. GI/AO for instance.
The only thing that worth to wait is RDR 2 nude mods news from John 🙂
It’s real and it’s coming with the first game included.
I know stuff.
no you don’t. we haven’t decide to port anything to PC yet, it’s up to me.
Edgy bro.
yes, have you played ride to hell retribution? that’s a masterpiece of a game if you want an authentic american experience.
Like pretty much all the alleged masterpieces braindead consolers go around waving at PC gamers’ faces
Why buy an old console port, that’s going to forcefully cripple your GPU, and feature crappy gameplay and MT’s shoved in?.
I see no reason to support R* going forward, if this is how they treat PC users on a constant basis. Certainly not worth paying full price for, and I know that’s what they’d expect.
DX12 sucks, just fkin use Vulcan.
