The latest Red Dead Online update has Red Dead Redemption 2 fans frustrated and losing hope in the PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Google Stadia game. Like many of the recent updates made to the game, the latest from Rockstar Games doesn't add a plethora of new content or give players a ton to do. Rather, the weekly update largely comes with bonuses and discounts, which some players will appreciate, but not the ones over on Twitter.

The update -- which can be found here -- offers bonuses on a new source of employment, a land of opportunities, and races, plus free rewards for playing with a Posse. Beyond this, the update does a bit more, but nothing more consequential than what's above. And right now, fans aren't impressed with what's above.

Over on Twitter, the tweet announcing this week's update -- more or less -- has two types of replies: players asking about GTA 6 and players expressing their frustration and disappointment not just with this update, but the last few weekly updates and the current state of the game.

Not only are players growing desperate for meaningful new content, but for long-awaited features and for bug fixes for problems that have been plaguing the game for months.

Oh No, Not That Gif

Please Fix the Game

As a very big fan of the game, and as a person who isn’t here to beg for GTA 6: Please fix the game. I know it’s difficult because of Covid-19, but that hasn’t stopped you from fixing and updating GTA Online. This game is a masterpiece, and deserves so much more than this.

Doesn't Compare to GTA Online

Wow
New Outlaw pass and new missions
What a surprise.....

Do you remember the initial GTAO development?
Every month a big update expanding the game

The first day of GTAO already had more content and variety of activities than RDO with two years online

Differences..

Boring Content

Just give us Haircuts and Head/Face Accessories or Makeups, and Secondary or Third Character Slots. So you can attract more people, who’s interested on virtual Cosplays. Instead of Just Boring content.....

Speaking of those A Land of Opportunities Missions, when are you guys gunna finish the story for that? It's been.... what? A year and a half, maybe two since we last got missions for that? Don't really think players are even invested in them anymore.

Game Needs Private Lobbies

Any chance we can get private lobbies so we can enjoy online without trolls?
