New Red Dead Redemption Patch Cleans Up Dirty Poker Cheat

You're going to have to find a new way to bilk the citizens of New Austin of their hard-earned spending money.

In anticipation of the upcoming Myths and Mavericks bonus pack, Rockstar Games is cleaning up some bugs and glitches in its outstanding western Red Dead Redemption with a new title update. The multiplayer changes are welcome, but if you're a fan of exploiting glitches like the poker trick that makes you a wealthy man, you may want to turn down the automatic update. Here is the full list of changes:

• Return of Undead Overrun to original rules (extended sudden death, no explosive spit)
• Fixes for several multiplayer exploits, including invincibility, invisibility, flying, and rapid-fire
• Fix for exploit which resulted in use of Undead weapons in Free Roam
• The addition of an option to exit Undead Overrun without sacrificing XP
• Fix for killing other players in Friendly Free Roam by cooking dynamite
• Fix for a Poker exploit that resulted in rapid accumulation of money
• Fix for occasionally being unable to move after crashing in a wagon
• Fix for Nuevo Paraiso bounties being reset upon loading a save
• Fix for System Link issue on Xbox 360

This patch is available now, and the multiplayer-centric Myths and Mavericks DLC is scheduled to release tomorrow.
