Red dead redemption 2 автомобили

The Automobile is a progressive form of transportation featured in Red Dead Redemption and mentioned in Red Dead Redemption 2.

Automobiles in Red Dead Redemption[]

While the primary mode of in-game travel is on horseback or by a horse-drawn carriage, as the player progresses through the game, the creeping onset of modernization will make itself known, especially in Blackwater. Automobiles are still a rarity in 1911 and cannot be independently driven by the player, but they still play important roles in several main story missions.

Automobiles were not produced in any significant numbers, having only been commercially available less than a decade prior; automobiles would have been considered rare contraptions. All in-game automobiles are lightweight except for the red Model-T.

A Ford Model-T is seen being unloaded at the Blackwater docks during the introduction cinematic. The same vehicle is seen parked beside an automobile repair shop on a street in Blackwater.

Edgar Ross and Archer Fordham use a burgundy, early Ford Model-T as their primary mode of transportation. John Marston rides as a passenger in the vehicle in several gameplay missions.

Dutch van der Linde stole a burgundy Ford Model-T which he used to kidnap a banker and eventually crashed in the Edgar Ross mission «Great Men are Not Always Wise».

In «And You Will Know The Truth», Edgar and Archer drive an early Minerva Armored Car, with Marston manning the Maxim gun mounted in the bed.
