    I seem to have stopped earning fame in RDR. If I recall correctly my fame bar is about half full and hasn't changed for about 4 hours of my 13 hours played. I have done many story missions, stranger missions and random events EG saved people's lives but no movement. I don't know whether it is to do with my bandana or if it's just glitched. Has this happened to you?

    If you have the bandana on, your fame and honor won't change.

    Ya this happened to me also. I was like why is there no fame. Looked online then went back to game and read info of bandana. It says that it will not change your fame and honor and take it off so the wanted level goes down aster after u escape to gray instead of red

    @Djeffers03: 
    When you press the back button (PS3 = Select button) press the button that brings up info on each item and you'll find the description for the bandana explaining about the how it will help you out when the law is after you. As well as a descriptions for other useful items too.

    Don't worry, just cheat at poker, get caught, and win the duel by shooting their gun outta their hand. You can get all the fame you missed that way.

    I haven't played the game, but that honestly sounds pretty neat.  It has good gameplay justifications and logical justifications.

    @Djeffers03:  Don't feel bad buddy. It took me a long time until I figured out which button made my horse stop.
    Stupid standard definition TV! ha ha.
     
    It wasn't until I checked the manual out that I found out what the button was that I needed.
    I also didn't know that pressing up on the D-pad call your horse to you. Also a result of the writing in-game not scaling to different TV sizes.

    Lmao.. Don't even worry I wish I had less fame.. Having a lot of fame (without spoiling anything) makes it a lot harder to get some of the achievements.
