Co-op Night: RED DEAD EDITION (Recruitment)
WHAT?
A special Co-op Night playing Red Dead Redemption on Xbox Live.
If you haven't done so, you can download the co-op mission pack for free here.
WHEN?
Wednesday, September 11th, 9 PM EST
Expect it to take 1-2 hours to run through the co-op missions.
WHY?
Malagate and I have had fun with this, but we both think that it would be more fun with more than two players.
Plus, this is a good warm-up for season 5 of Co-op Night, which begins a week from Wednesday.
HOW?
If you've played previous Co-op Nights, you know the drill. We'll have a "qualifying" round in Reach that will determine teams. (Why Reach? Because I like it AND I have a digital copy, which makes things easier.)
Your posse is your family. Play like a team. Protect and revive your teammates. On Co-op Night, assists count as much as kills.
WHO?
Friends of Coop Night who are online and have Reach loaded at 9 PM get invited first. You can also send a message to Kermit7. I don't anticipate more than 16, so at this time I don't have plans to form a second party. First come, first served. :)
Hell yes!
I still need some cheevos in co-op missions.
Saddle up!

Originally a no-brainer to join, but the use of a second game makes the complexity almost unbearable. Why don't we all just get into a huge free roam match and pretend it's destiny with seamless matchmaking :-)

I will definitely maybe be there.

You don't want to see what we do in free roam. Molotov fight anyone?

Dang it I'm at a concert that night. Would have loved to.

What concert? Levi and the Hoffmeiers?

Have you not played in co-op night before? We managed to use Reach to determine teams when we played through the ODST campaign and got no complaints.
You make a good point, though. I'll look into using the RDR private free for all game to determine teams, but since I've never played that, my preference is to stick to what I know in the set up to avoid any unforeseen obstacles, like people not being able to hear me, etc. It's a very short match.
I'm one sad cowboy.

Since you're not starting until 10:30 Thursday, I know you don't have my bedtime excuse. We might be done by 10:30 EST.

Hah, naw. Jim James.

Call me, text me, send up a flare if it's time and you haven't heard from me.

WELL, CON-FLABBIT!!
So, of course, the night you decide to finally boot up Red Dead, I be - oddly enough - attending a concert as well. This makes me a sad boner. Why you do this, Kermit? Why!?
WELL, CON-FLABBIT!!
Don't con-flabbit me! I tried to invite you to play over the weekend.
Sorry you can't make it. But heck, if it's just me, padraig, and Malagate, I'll be happy.

Uh, problem solved-ish: anyone down to meet on XBL for some RDR in like...an hour?

WELL, CON-FLABBIT!!
Not tonight for me, hombre. Sadly.
WELL, CON-FLABBIT!!
if it's just me, padraig, and Malagate, I'll be happy.
You lied! I thought I was important! My life is a farce....
WELL, CON-FLABBIT!!
But heck, if it's just me, padraig, and Malagate, I'll be happy.
Ride into the sunset.

Just so you know, I looked into creating a short custom game in RDR, and either it's too complicated or it's too much trouble for me.
Trust me, there's a method to the madness and it will be short and painless. Unless we have low turn-out, and then I'll just arbitrarily dictate what the teams will be. :)

With 8 people able to play together it wouldn't surprise me if we're on at most 1-2 posses :)

Only four in co-op, from what I've read.

Oh you're right, I am thinking the size of posses in free roam.
Bah
Ended up having to work late, but I guess it worked out better, 4 is much better than 5!

Thanks, padraig, Malagate, and Six Minute Whistle!
Had a great time, especially storming the cannons!
Co-op Night: RED DEAD EDITION
I'm surprised anything is left of Mexico after the shelling we delivered that town. Many a man was blown to smitheroons.
Bah
Sorry it worked out that way. I do recommend downloading the co-op missions and giving them a try. They're a lot of fun.
