Click: Red Dead Redemption Guides with Gold Medal requirements
After you've completed a mission you can replay it from the stats -> missions menu. Depending on how you complete each mission you are ranked from Bronze to Gold medals. I've been going through the first few missions making a list of the stuff you need to do in order to get gold, but it's pretty time consuming because it generally involves multiple playthroughs of each mission, I think the medals work in the same way as the Ballad of Gay Tony DLC for GTA4 in that you can complete one objective on each play through, and once you've hit the target for each individual objective, you'll get gold. For example you could play through once and take your time, ensuring every kill was a headshot, or that your accuracy was 100%. Then you could play through again and sprint through the missions finishing it as quickly as you can etc. Then once you'd got 100% accuracy, and beat the time limit (in total, across all playthroughs) then you'd get gold. RDR gold medal If any of you would like to help me out with this I'd appreciate it. All I need is for you to play through missions till you get gold, then make a note of your stats in the menu explaining which objectives you completed for gold. Generally it involves Accuracy %, Completion Time and sometimes one mission-exclusive objective, such as the Number of Cows returned etc. Red Dead Redemption gold medal If you want to help, do any missions after the ones below and post your completion data here so I can make a guide. If you have any tips on how to beat certain objectives, such as shortcuts to cut time off the mission, post them too. RDR gold medal Cheers.

nice work and good tips... i got mine doing the "political realities in armadillo" mission
-------------------- ![]() Oh, good one. The "you're on the internet so you must have no life" insult isn't moronic or unoriginal at all. You must, without a doubt, be a very important member of society, not at all a waste of the already barely valuable gift of life. As is the case for everyone who takes issue with people who make them sad on the internet, you are one of two kinds of people: You are exactly what you claim I am, and that is a lonely, pathetic basement dweller. You life is spent eating eight pounds of junk food per day, masturbating to anything you find online that's even remotely feminine, and wishing you had good looks and social skills. You continue to live with your mother until she dies of a combination of lung cancer and liver failure brought on by the chain-smoking and heavy drinking she used to cope with what a failure you are. Your mother mercifully dead and free of the living embodiment of failure she regretfully thrust from her loins, the bills start to pile up and you, unemployed and unable to pay these bills (of course), lose the house and everything in it. Somehow even more of a failure than you already were, you wander from place to place eating out of dumpsters and sleeping in your own filth until you finally die of AIDS, which you contracted from a diseased whore you scrounged up enough money to pay for, so you could finally lose your virginity while at the same time pretending that your mother was back in your life. Or: You are the type who was an athlete in high school, who was genetically doomed to be an idiot but managed to finish school and even get a college scholarship because you were so good at a worthless children's game. You went off to college with a suitcase full of polo shirts and condoms, the polo shirts, because you're a douche, and the condoms to prevent you from impregnating the dim-witted young college girls whom you could never touch without the aid of Rohypnol, a drug you refer to as "roofies" because you can neither spell or pronounce Rohypnol. You scrape by with borderline D's for the next four years, and leave the campus to go out into the real world where your realize you're not intelligent or talented enough to do anything of value with your life. Misery and minimum wage ensues for thirty years, then you blow your brains out, and your corpse, alone and forgotten, is not discovered until the smell of rotting flesh seeps under your door and your bodily fluids finally soak through the floor of your studio apartment and into the room below you. Your body is cremated, the ashes scraped into a garbage bin because there was no one in your life who valued you enough to pay for a casket, funeral, or burial plot. You're undoubtedly one of the two, otherwise you would have better things to do than complain about the theme of a forum that doesn't care about anything you have to say. |

I'm gonna put it on the main site when it's finished. I want to get the most accurate info for it, so I need as many people to post their mission stats for missions they got gold for.
For example if I got gold on 2:27 seconds I might think you need to get less than 2:30, but then you might get gold on 2:40 so it could be less than 3 mins, but then someone else could have silver on 2:49 so it's most likely 2:45 etc. -------------------- |

Lack of sleep must have done something right in my head. Starting to figure out the "tricks" to it. Got a 5:02 and then a 4:54. edit: 4:52 now and I wasn't trying to get a good time.
Still seems VERY random during the stampede. Some of the dark blue "stampeding" cows just walk in circles and won't join the group so I can talk to bonnie and round them up. -------------------- |

Okay, with different people saying different things, I did an experiment regarding cutscene time counting towards your overall time. It appears that yes, they do add time except for the intro BUT skipping the intro will add 20 seconds compared to actual time (like with a stopwatch).
I did the first mission and noted the time it took to reach certain parts using a stopwatch. From there I found approximately how long each part of the mission takes and added those up to get the game's recorded time. I did the first mission about 15 times noting points. I found that the intro cutscene doesn't count (about 5:20 long) and that when I skipped it, an additional 20 seconds was added overall. When I watched the intro but skipped the other cutscenes, my time and the game time matched (within a few seconds). A play through of the second mission also seems to show that the intro does not count. I haven't done more than one of that mission and none beyond at this point but I figured it was worth posting my preliminary findings. I'll probably look into this more in the future. -------------------- |

Took a while, but all the New Austin mission guides are up with very accurate Gold Medal requirements (changed in Psy's post too). I noticed a few of the times required a second less than a flat number (such as 3:59 instead of 4:00) but I only noted those that I confirmed. probably end up changing them all one day. Some of the accuracies are within a percent or two as well. Close enough.
One third of the way there... -------------------- |

Mexico guides are now done. Might go back and do maps for the last two later but there isn't much to show and the areas are small.

Simplified Psy's post and added the rest of the missions and what requirements I have confirmed. After the next couple of missions it should be smooth sailing to finally end this crap.

Fucking done with the story missions for Red Dead Redemption. The stranger missions should be easy so after that Redemption should be finally done after 2 years of this. I'll also go through and tweak a couple things plus add mission strings at the bottom of each guide so you can go from one mission to the next in order.
I need a break first. x_x -------------------- |
