" OMG...People are actually shooting at you guys in a Wild West free roam game where you gain exp for killing people.  Seriously if it bugs you so much create a private game "

Like many others, i was going through a gang hideout and had two or three of these assholes just repeatedly shoot me and fuck me over, so i eventually left to go do another hideout, again they followed and filled me with bullets. The third time i ran into a large group of dudes all hovering around the 35-45 level marks, they randomly invited me into their posse, which i was all to happy to accept. So we did the hideout, when someone suggested we "roll in a carriage and do a drive by", at the time the only players in the session where this group and I, and the assholes encountered earlier. Before i could suggest myself we go after the other dudes, one yelled "lets get the other n----s", and as you can imagine i was fucking over the moon.
 
So long story short, we all piled into the carriage, two guys upfront and four in the carriage itself, with our horses and two other posse members in toe, up too Fort Mercer, guns blazing in the air until we were close enough to be heard, and capped their motherfucking asses. So in the end, them bitchez got served....many times.

I was shooting up a gang hideout in free roam, just grinding some XP. 
 
A guy showed up. We killed each other a few times then just started to work together killing banditos. It was a very non-asshole moment.

I still contend that the worst part of the multiplayer of this game is the fact that you are playing with other people....
 
There are assholes out there.  Don't be one of them.  I take it upon myself to hunt down people that shoot me for no reason.

Whenever I am "casually" killed by someone, they become my sole target for the rest of the evening.
