    Why are they wasting there resources, time and effort on MP DLC? I barely see anyone on the MP anyway 7 at most lets be honest the root of  RDR greatness is the SP so why aren't they making SP DLC? I thought the zombie thing would of been SP but when I herd its MP most def aint getting it.

    The zombie DLC pack will feature single player elements aswell. All the new animals and crypts will be added to the single player world. They'll probably be a few stranger missions maybe too, I'd guess.

    I don't understand Rockstar's fascination with breaking into multiplayer. They're known for their single player stuff, that's why people pay attention and if anything, this second rate multiplayer stuff is more of a hinderance.

    I actually really enjoy the multiplayer, and there are usually a fairly large amount of people in the lobbies i visit
    but i play with friends alot, so you're mileage may vary

    No one plays, you say? Well, to be fair, plenty do play RDR on multiplayer. The main issue to be had is that you won't always be in a free roam with a lot of players.  Though with friends who have the game with ya, it's all easy 
     
    But I do agree to an extent on what you said. For one, since I beat the game, it left me wanting more of the single player. I want more missions and stuff since it's just that good.

    @Manhattan_Project: I do when I would have to load a new free roam for me to go to. In the end, all I had to do was change my character on the outfitter. lol

    Agree 1000% with the OP. I haven't touched this game since June after having loved it and playing the Hell out of it. Rockstar's thinking is ass backwards. The new DLC caters to the griefer douche bags that pretty much make up what there is of the multiplayer. They have actually made achievements encouraging you to be a dickhead in free roam! By the time the good single player DLC comes out I'll be pre-occupied with other Fall releases and have no time to bother with RDR. Well played Rockstar...

    I don't know; it might be some crazy executive pushing multiplayer.  I'm not familiar with the company.  A smaller group of guys might be trying to cut their teeth on some multiplayer.  Maybe they ran out of good ideas for single player.

    Mere speculation doesn't accomplish much, though.  Does anyone knows more about the situation than I do?
