[QUOTE="Ruff, post: 317727, member: 35864"] While in freeroam your blip is visible on the map and also your name tag gives you away. Can't understand why they didn't do it GTA style of when yiou crouch your name tag disappears (this woulda been much better). When you play in Gang Matches and other activities your blip disappears until you run. But if you're having **** off people in freeroam, when you spawn find a rock or some cover ASAP and hit R1 to hide behind it. Then they gotta come hunt you down and you've got a great chance to pick them off, especially if you got some DEADEYE meter. Deadeye doesn't slow down the play like in singleplayer but you can place loads of targets on the person or persons just by hovering the crosshair over them (and it doesn't use up ammo) and when you let it rip it fires **** outta them even from quite a long range. I've taken out 4 people with deadeye that were coming to get me. It don't matter what weapon you use (apart from sniper rifle or knife) in deadeye it will just rapid fire and autoreload at blink of an eye. Also if people hunting you down are about 200yds away and closing then go for their horses. They fall hard and if you got a good repeater you can take them out while they are tryin to get up or snipe them if you have one. It takes a good bit of levelling before you permanently have better weapons BUT whatever you pick up in your session you will keep (even when you die) until you turn the game off. SO... Do the Tumbleweed gang hideout and when you get to the mansion there is a guy with a snper rifle there. Search the area after you've taken everyone out. Also try and find an Evans Repeater cos it holds 22 rounds and is well handy for multiple combat without deadeye.
