I got my 15 gold but not got my $1100 for ultimate yet as I also pre ordered.
See below.

Title Update 1.05 has been released addressing general improvements to fix game stability, save data and to address exploits.

Gold Gift: As a thank you for your ongoing support, we are awarding everyone who has played from the Red Dead Online Beta launch through this Thursday, December 20th with a gift of 15 additional gold bars. The awards will begin rolling out today and if you haven’t experienced the Red Dead Online Beta yet, play by Thursday, December 20th for eligibility. All gold bar gifts should be delivered by Monday, December 24th. Keep an eye out for an alert screen when entering the Red Dead Online Beta to confirm the gift.

Cash Gift: As an added thank you to players who pre-ordered Red Dead Redemption 2, and those who purchased either the Special or Ultimate Edition, we are awarding additional RDO$ gifts. These will be active starting Friday, December 21st and are automatically added to your character’s balance the next time you play Red Dead Online during the Beta and permanently afterwards:

  • Special Edition Owners: RDO$100
  • Ultimate Edition Owners: RDO$1,000
  • Everyone who pre-ordered: RDO$100 (in addition to Ultimate and Special Edition gifts)

This is probably just to warm us up to buying Gold Bars. “Oh, I have 2 Gold but need 80 for that thing? Nah”. Oooor, “Oh, I need 80 for that thing and already have 50? Aaah, I’ll just buy the small pack and grind a little bit”.

If people stay true to their word, pretty much the entire Red Dead Redemption community on Reddit wont, either - myself included. Micahtransactions are unacceptable.

lets be honest here, the majority of the community not buying the gold cards will not affect R* change in attitude towards microtransactions as they know that the vast majority of the ppl unhappy with it were never going to buy them in the first place. They rely on the small % of players who continuosly spend money whenever new products are added to the game. There might be some who are hesitant due to the current inflated gold prices, but if they reduce it a bit, then more ppl will purchase the cards. Essentially, protesting against the microtransactions is pointless as it wont be removed no matter what.

true, but EA were simply using scumbag methods to get money. However, R* has been smart with the way they do these things and have experience from gta. Do you think those free 30 gold bars (15 last week and another 15 this week) and the in-game cash bonuses from the kindness of their hearts? Nope, it's to ease the bitterness of the majority by portraying themselves as a generous company and reduce the frustration of the beta so far. With 30 gold bars from them, most players should have over at least 40 gold bars or more, and thats enough to purchase the black arabian, the most expensive item in the game. This will all change when more content is added, but for now, it leaves ppl satisfied with the free gold they recieved. With their communication and responding to feedback, the majority of the community is not outraged as they were with EA.

Another thing to note, EA made several errors in how they dealt with the community. I think it started with the star wars thing where you couldnt play as a main character (i think it was darth vader or luke? not sure) so a similar analogy would be where you could play as arthur morgan in RDR2, but would have to pay if you wanted to play as John in the epilogue. Moreover, the rude remarks made by EA staff member also bombed their company. I just dont see R* making any of these mistakes. They might reduce the prices of the gold cards if there is a massive outrage, but there is no way they will remove mtxn completely

I only have $1800 and that includes the 1100 bonus from rockstar today. Technically, i have earned over $24,000 in the game so far, but i spent a lot of money for upgrades/clothes/weapons/etc and only have 1800 left. Im done with hunting/fishing as abt $20,000 i earned was from them, and just play showdowns for now until new dlc. but the money i earn in showdowns is nothing to what i earn in hunting tho
