Another RDR Triple XP Event This Weekend

Another RDR Triple XP Event This Weekend

Get back on your horse!

Written by KeithBGray on 13 September 12 at 11:09 | Credit to JDawgg77

After a relative lull in proceedings earlier this year, XP events for Rockstar-developed titles are now coming thick and fast. Barely two weeks have passed since the last triple XP event for Red Dead Redemption.

RDR Event - 130912 - 170912


This weekend sees another four days worth of goodness across all game modes and DLC packs. The triple XP action starts today and finishes on Sunday, but there's no indication of specific start or end times. Furthermore, two members of the Rockstar development team, namely RedDeadDev3 and RedDeadDev5, will be online to play from 11am to 2pm EST / 4pm to 7pm BST. Sending them a polite message on Xbox LIVE may just grant you an invite to the game lobby that they're playing in.

Why are you still reading this? Get online, and show everyone else how the West was won.

Still need to hit level 50, I don't really like multiplayer though

Does anyone know if the points given are also boosted?

Might be a decent time to finally pick up the '9000 solo points' and '50000 posse points' achievements if so...

My rank was reset for some reason. I was so close. I'll be playing this all weekend.

Getting to level 50 even with the 3x XP boost is still boring as hell. I hope these keep coming because I can't fathom playing more than an hour a day.

Whenever I played on these XP weekends, the posse points were NOT boosted, just keep playing or better yet get a group together and do loads of hideouts, or snipe from Blackwater

If you are talking about XP points, then yes. That is why it is called triple XP. You get 3 times the XP then you would regularly. If you are talking about the achievement points being tripled, this question is even dumber than I originally thought.

Everyone in your Posse has their points entered in a bank. Those points are tripled before they go into the bank. Once the bank hits 50k (or 9k for solo), the achievement pops. Triple XP does help for these achievements.

Again, the XP will go back to normal at some point on Sunday, but we haven't been told when.

There are so many of these events, they may just as well leave it at 3x.
