Red Dead Online Players Are Expressing Frustration Over Sparse Updates and Rockstar’s Poor Communication

Fans of the online cowboy third-person open world shooter are quite unhappy with the way Rockstar Games is handling its updates.

While Rockstar Games’ Red Dead Redemption 2 enjoyed critical success for it brilliant narration and emotional characters, the same cannot be said for its online counterpart Red Dead Online.

Recently, the Red Dead Online playerbase took to Twitter with frustration and displeasure with regards to the lack of content the game’s been getting from Rockstar Games, especially when you compare it with Grand Theft Auto Online, which recently got a free story update.

For the last couple of days, fans have been trying to get Rockstar Games’ attention by taking to social media with the hashtag #SaveRedDeadOnline, which has also trended.

The main issues stem from the fact that there has been an increased lack of new updates, and whatever updates the studio is releasing are very minor in comparison to the Grand Theft Auto Online. The last new content update Red Dead Online got was through July 2021’s Blood Money. Many players in the Red Dead Online community feel Rockstar Games is more concerned with facilitating fresh content for Grand Theft Auto Online.

Another thing fans are displeased about is the lack of communication from the studio to its fans, citing that the least the company could do is provide a roadmap for Red Dead Online so that players are informed of what to expect from the game in the future.

Rockstar Games is still yet to say anything about the issue.
