Rockstar has revealed details of how its Social Club online system will work with Red Dead Redemption, promising exclusive unlockable content.

Social Club users will be tasked with particular bonus challenges - one such mission, unlocked early in the game, has you trying to kill three enemies in one Dead Eye burst, and lasso and drag a gang member around while on horseback, after which you unlock special bullets that could set your enemies on fire.

There will also be cumulative challenges for Social Club users, with avatar rewards on PlayStation Network and Xbox Live.

Plus you can expect an in-game Social Club newsfeed via a local newspaper, online leaderboards, a checklist for people trying to achieve 100 per cent completion, and special multiplayer events.

The Social Club elements will go live once the game is released - it's due out for PS3 and Xbox 360 on 21st May

Why did they have to put stupid online trophies in this game. Was looking forward to going for platinum in this.

Might just get it on the 360 now.
 
I've not seen the secret ones but the only online trophies I've seen that looks to be slightly hard are the 'get four consecutive victories in any team based game' and 'Be the top scoring player in three consecutive FFA games'.
 
The ones that concern me are as follows:

The Quick and Everyone Else...
Be the top scoring player in any three consecutive FFA games in public matches. - Almost impossible. Resets after disconnects aswell. GTAIV used to disconnect a lot due to public hosts.

Go Team!
Be on the winning team for four consecutive victories in any team based game in public matches. - Do-able, but time-consuming. Again resets if you disconnect, just like GTA.

Most Wanted
Become a Public Enemy for 10 minutes and escape alive in a public Free Roam session. - Do-able, but time-consuming. Sounds like a tough one aswell..

Red Dead Rockstar
Kill a Rockstar or someone with this achievement in a public multiplayer match. - Do-able, but time-consuming.

Have Gun Will Travel
Complete all Hideouts in a single public Free Roam session - Doable, but may also be tough..

Slow on the Draw
Get 10 assists in a single Hideout in a public Free Roam session. - Very tough, especially with disconnects.

Hit the Trail
Get from Blackwater to Escalera before sundown in a public Free Roam session. - Doable, may be difficult with public disconnects.

I don't remember having too much trouble with GTAs servers once they patched them up. It was unplayable for the first few weeks but when they finally fixed them it was fine.

The only one that stands out from them as very hard is the 10 minutes one. I suppose if you attempt it on day 1 you might be in a game with noobs who don't know the hiding spots or just don't know how to get up to your hiding spots.
 
How customisable are multiplayer characters? I either want to make a ridiculous mexican bandito or a stone-cold "preacher" type.

Anyway fingers crossed will turn up a week from now; it looks like one of those pleasant surprises in gaming that crop up.
 
The game appears to have been delayed to 28th May at least in Sweden (several sources). Has anyone heard anything? :(

Damn Webhallen are now showing that, I already pre-ordered from them and they didn't even bother to Email me to inform me! Tossers.

Edit: CD Wow is showing a mix of 18th and 21st, they seem confused........
