Iplayed through the original RDR, acquired all the achievements and quit right when Outlaws To The End came out because I left some friends borrow it from me. Now I'm back playing through the game again and I'm thinking about going for some DLC achievements finally.

The disk is like a standalone game, unless you launch multiplayer, then it prompts you for the RDR disk. The download version of undead nightmare automatically launches multiplayer because the RDR disk would already be in. The disk of RDR: UN could break, requiring you to buy another one. But for the download, you could just restore your account and download it again if your hard drive fails. I recommend getting the download


However I'm pretty sure the disc does not include the Outlaws To The End pack. If you didn't unlock those yet and are gunning for the full 1500 points, you're gonna need to get another copy of RDR which might be a case for the DLC route.


Well, buying the disk gives you resale value unlike the digital download first of all. Secondly, unless you buy the DLC off a dashboard promotion, it's much cheaper to buy the retail disc, especially if you buy it used. Lastly, it will also save you space on your hard drive as it even includes the free DLC-


I bought the Undead Nightmare game disc but I don't have the original game (I know, long story). Now I know the single UN's single player only has 9 achievements but there are 96 in total on the list. I've finished the single player and have all the achievements, i've also picked up a few others online, but it seems pretty far-fetched to get 87 achievements in multiplayer alone.


You need the original retail disc to get the full 1500g. I believe with the Undead Nightmare disc the max you can get is 740g, as you can get some of the retail non-story related achievements from it.


Exactly, and I downloaded the free packs too. I'm playing it right now, fun but a little glitchy. I was doing a Missing Persons mission with my horse War, she climbed on to War and then all three of us fell to the ground, War just instantly died...I had to reload my save...


I have a question about the Undead Nightmare Retail disc. Yesterday I noticed that you can't access the Undead Nightmare DLC from RDR disc. Is there any way to access the content without switching to the Undead Nightmare disc? Also what's the R* Code and what does it do?


I think I can answer this. If you downloaded the Undead Nightmare as DLC you can access it from the main RDR menu screen, just hit single player and it gives you the choice between standard RDR and UN. However if you bought the stand-alone Undead disc, you would have to have it in the tray to play Undead Nightmare. Unsure if installing UN on your harddrive changes that.


The R* code was/is for promotional DLC for the single player game; depending on where you preordered the original RDR (Gamestop, Best Buy, or Amazon) you'd get a download code for either the Deadly Assassin outfit, the Warhorse, or the Golden Guns. That R* option is where you would enter the code to redeem the download.


BTW, if you're interested in those DLC's for the single player, search "Red Dead Redemption DLC" on ebay, and people are still selling them, usually for $10-20 each. I bought all three that way, and in all three cases the sellers just emailed me the R* code rather than ship the card, so no waiting necessary.


and if you read the first review he makes mention that it does not come with it, but it's free. However, that is not my question. My question is, to run the Outlaws to the End do I need the original RDR, or will it run with Nightmare? I assume it just needs the game engine to run off, so theoretically it should work, but just because it makes sense logically doesn't mean it will work.


I bought Undead Nightmare on disc before I bought RDR. It seemed to work fine until the updates were installed. Apparently the last update they released for UN totally broke it and made it so the zombies (that can only be killed by headshots) spawn without heads and othe hijinks. But when I ran vanilla RDR from its own disc, there were no issues.


I just finished with the undead (European - our stores only have the coop dlc free :/ ) disk version. I started with patches then realised I didn't have the axe and explosive rifle challenges so had to reinstall without


while playing without patches It was fine, with the patches I had people and zombies with no heads they could be shot you just can't see them, the 4 horses appearing without their powers, I couldn't complete saving towns without reloading and trying again, twice I manual saved and it got stuck on a black screen (PS3 not frozen), I had to do 1 mission again because of a freeze and another I had to do again because it decides you didn't do it if you autosave leave and come back.


I know someone who's playing through ps now who's having or had issues accessing the axe or riffle challenges and Rockstar support was terrible about it responding about the wrong console and games so maybe don't get it through there if that's how you'd get it digitally


Playing the standalone Undead Nightmare disc on PS3 at the moment and it is straight-up unplayable. I haven't run into the headless zombies glitch yet, but I run into a crash or a freeze within minutes of starting up, guaranteed every single time. Any progress at all is impossible. I've already uninstalled the patch but no improvement. Is there any sort of true workaround for this or do I just have to purchase the digital edition?
