Occasionally, you will ride across the large map to head to a side mission, you will get there, and the icon that was previously underneath your waypoint marker will have vanished. So, what’s the deal?
Red Dead Redemption 2 is huge – massive, in fact – and you will spend a lot of your time in its world riding between missions.
Occasionally, you’ll be on your way to complete a side mission, and the icon that was previously underneath your waypoint marker will have vanished. So, what’s the deal?
Red Dead Redemption 2 has a fully simulated world, so there are a handful of reasons why a quest giver might not be there when you eventually ride up.
The biggest reason is the time of day. Some missions can only be triggered during the night, and some can only be triggered during the day.
The easiest way to check this is to head to the nearest hotel, or ride out into the wilds and set up a camp, then sleep until it’s either night or day. If the quest giver reappears on the map, your problem is solved.
Another reason missions get locked out is when you’re caught committing crimes. To unlock them, you need to lose your wanted level, so ride out of the red area and lay low for a while.
It’s worth noting that some gangs might turn hostile towards you at certain parts of the story.
If a mission giver is in rival gang territory, it can be difficult to get to them without a confrontation, which can often draw the law. Be clever about your route towards them and you should be fine.
