Posted on September 9 2010, 7:00pm | Author: R* Y | Filed Under: Games, Social Club

Update: The event has ended.  Thanks to everyone that joined in – whether playing, watching the live stream or participating in the chat.  We look forward to seeing all of you in future events.

Join us on Thursday, September 9th from 4-7PM Eastern for our latest official live streaming session from the Social Club Multiplayer Events Series when we'll be on PlayStation Network playing Red Dead Redemption - including playlists from the Legends and Killers Pack as well as original game playlists.

Chat live with Rockstar and other fans about all the action happening on the live broadcasted video stream, make requests for what you want the next playlist to be, and enter to win one of 20 prize packs... all on the Social Club Multiplayer Events page.

Here's all of the info you'll need to find us, join in, chat and watch the stream:

SPECTATE AND CHAT
Cant jump in and play?  Follow all the action at the Social Club Multiplayer Events page.  As usual, we'll have a live streaming video broadcast of the in-game action plus a chat box so you can discuss all of the action with other gamers.

HOW TO FIND US
Start up multiplayer from the main menu.  This will place you into a Free Roam lobby.  Invite at least one friend and form a posse.  Then enter a game mode.  We'll be playing multiple game modes at the same time during the event.

HOW DOES FREE ROAM WORK?
Free Roam is the hub of your online experience.  Supporting up to 16 players, Free Roam allows you to explore with your friends and enemies, take out the gangs of outlaws or launch into more structured gameplay using the markers placed around the world.  We'll be forming posses and then heading into several game modes during the evening.

To form a posse, press the 'Select' button and use the menu.  This menu gives you several gameplay options and access to the list of players in your session.

FORMING A POSSE
To start the game, invite your friends, form a posse and find Rockstar, follow these steps:

1. From the main menu, press 'Start' and then enter 'Online Multiplayer' by pressing the 'Square' button.

2. Once in a Free Roam lobby, press the 'Select' button to open the in-game multiplayer menu.

3. Press the 'R1' button and then the 'Triangle' button to 'Show Friends'.  Invite at least one friend into your posse using the 'X' button.

4. Once your friends are in the game, press the 'Triangle' button again to return to the 'Players' menu and select them with the 'X' button to 'Propose New Posse' or 'Send Posse Invite'.

5. Once you and your friends are ready to go, start up the game mode we're currently playing.  We will be starting in Gang Shootout.

Remember you must have one friend in your posse to play with Rockstar.  And as stated, pay close attention to the chat to know what game mode we're currently playing.

                Hi Rockstar peeps. I missed the event this time due to time differences and not being awake (I'm in Australia).
                I wanted to make a suggestion regarding the Outlaws to the End Co-op DLC. Can the button used for reviving (triangle) be changed to a button that isn't used for getting onto wagons and using heavy artillery? I suggest that the reload button would be better for reviving than triangle. Too many times I have been unable to revive my friends when they are downed whilst using a gattling gun or cannon (typical in The Escape at Tumbleweed using cannons and at the end of Walton's Gold using the gattling gun) because pressing triangle just puts me on the gun instead of reviving my friend. Thanks for your consideration.

                  @ R*Y

                  That was a lovely gesture... Dev6, you was crazy in Ammunition bro, jumping on the gattling gun like a hero or something! Sorry for taking the bounty off you in free roam, it was too tempting!
                  Managed to stick with you guys pretty well this evening, can't thank you enough, it was epic!

                  Dev3 is hardcore and needs to be taught a lesson.. i owe him a bullet in the brain...i don't forget these things in a hurry!

                  Amazing fun guys, thank you very much indeed!

                    @makdady12 - Me too (a little bit normal given that I have neither PS3 nor Xbox), but speak with SocialClub and the members was very nice, and for me discover the RDR multiplayer through a kind of official video about 3h was very enriching! lol
                    Thanks you SocialClub and RedDev3 (for Live Streaming) for this event (and of course thanks to the others R*'gamers ;) )

                              @swavage415 We're playing a little bit of everything, with a focus on the new Legends and Killers Pack.
