The reason that theres a big ocean underneath the Map is that a lot of games have one singular water plain underneath the map and whenever they need lakes or rivers they simply stretch that surface up so that they dont need to have multiple physics simulations running at once.

Why couldn't he work that out? He was genuinely surprised every time he found water. Mindblowing.

[@kellmedd4925]

@@mojorisin8368 TO be fair, I wouldn't think of it because I'm the kind of person who adds water when I need water and keeps the rest of the map an endless void. So... I can understand the shock by some because to be fair I expected the games to not have an endless water void.

The map wasn’t glitching at the end. You were simply hitting loading points for Guarma. The game unloads the main map and loads in Guarma for Chapter 5. If you wondered around a bit more you would’ve found out that the whole island is there and it’s solid ground you can walk on, this is because the entire island of Guarma was planned to be a playable map but due to time constraints Chapter 5 was significantly cut back, you would’ve found the main Guarma area you play in on the west coast of the island. It’s truly fascinating that this entire island is there outside the map

[@dankbacon55]

I dont think it was constraints but just scrapped content

[@itselizauwu]

@@dankbacon55 realistically we don’t know and we’ll never know. I always just assumed that since Red Dead’s release date was delayed they were working until the very end so Guarma had to be cut back because they didn’t have enough time until release date

The reason there is so much land outside the map is because the devs don't want you to see the edge of the map. Like if you go to the tallest mountains in the game, you can see these areas, plus they want you to think the map is even bigger than it is.

[@CornFlex420]

Exactly, I'm pretty sure they're just there to block further view of the outside edges. Another theory I had was the out of bounds terrain could've been used for depth or background on deloaded terrain

[@quirkypurple3]

yep, it’s to make the scope of the game look big, and it is. what’s impressive is how much of it you can actually traverse without mods.

[@cartercolson7975]

its like with bridges in open world games to there's a lake normally that you would go over by the bridge and the game feels bigger than it is because of that bridge and without it would just feel smaller

[@boobengarden666]

I can see that. In RDR1 if you stand at Nekoti Rock and look across Flat Iron Lake its pretty evident where the edge is.

Many open-world games, and to my knowledge all Rockstar ones, have an ocean under the map that drags on forever. It's there in San Andreas, and there would be no reason for it not to be there in RDR2. It doesn't prove anything, it's just that you will see ocean wherever land ends and Rockstar didn't ever need a tool to create infinite land in any of their games, thus they don't have infinite land but they do have infinite water because they needed that for GTA. The reason for having ocean everywhere is that it makes everything easier for the devs. They don't have to hide the seams anywhere on the actual ocean of the map, and they have a decent point of reference for how high up any specific part of land should be.

[@TheGamingCrow]

3:03 tbh, it's the other way around. In these open world games the water level is set first, so basically the ocan is created first. Then they build the land on top or even below that. I've got some insight in this topic of game creating, since I used to be a modder for TES4: Oblivion back in the days, creating entire new questlines and continents as well.

Well the way that most games like this work is that they will have a sea level at a certain point so what you thought was rockstar making california in rdr2 was just the end of the land they decided to create as the land that on what you think to be the coast is where rockstar probably thought nobody would go so why bother making more land?

The out of bounds nonrendered textures are to make up for the US and Mexico that's not part of the game. It's to prevent the map from looking incomplete like with V's where Nevada, San Francisco and San Diego is just ocean where there's supposed to be land.

[@everaldosantos5554]

7:59 - since you have access to mods you probably can brake that invisible barrier, since Shesez, i think it's him, made a video where he went all the way to the end of the ocean / horizon and the skybox turned bright white, you can't see nothing more besides white and the mini - map, by that point you can only move the cursor, the player just gets stuck there.

There is a cool way to go outside the map: in the Big Valley there is a little cave (there lives a crazy hermit too), go inside until you reach a dead end with a large hole- drink moonshine until you pass out- boom you are spawning outside the map. I did this to get John to Guarma and let me tell you it took me many hours to get there XD you can actually ride with a horse if you find one (animals outside do absolutly nothing, they just stand there even wolfs and such 😂) and you can go pretty far outside until you reach blurry land. 9:10 this is probably part of Guarma Map. Good video mate, cheers from Austria ✌

Cool investigation. I think you will find a body of water starting on every far edge of the map. I believe this is a death barrier mechanism "just in case" the player makes their ways that far OOB.

[@KarolusImperator]

If the map was going to be a bit bigger, it would simply be an addition of Mexico. Hell, even New Austin was a stretch for Rockstar, as it was added in late In development to satisfy fans after the initial teasers/trailers. All the terrain that surrounds the map is just randomly generated (maybe except for this weird little bay on the eastern edge? Also, there's a lake/river source that's a remnant of beta development just beyond NH's nothern edge). It's low poly because the player is really only supposed to see it from an extreme distance. If something was actually planned, you would have a lot more flat areas, cliffs, river beds, general signs of a more artificially molded terrain. The only piece of terrain that actually fits this description is the ENTIRE island of Guarma. I believe early in development, you were supposed to have more access to Guarma, and there would be a lot more locations. However something must've happened and now the main area is only the northwestern/west coast. If you want a really good in-depth series of RDR2 out-of-bounds exploration, I highly recommend checking out Basement Gamer Bros.

[@equinedreams5742]

maybe its just me, but ive always felt new austin looked like it was rushed. it looked more like rdr1 to me than rdr2, maybe this is why

[@Itsbudd]

The last location you went to is where guarma is located, rockstar put it far away so players wouldn’t see it, and it looks like rockstar was going to expand on guarma and possibly add another island

It’s surrounding a river like in red dead redemption so if you cross the river of Saint Denis, there’s more land like in real life so that does make sense.

"It glitches out". Save the explanation videos for the pro's. That's just generic land that is a distance placeholder so that you think the map is "endless" by playing legit. When in reality, it's cut short because you aren't supposed to be there and they have nothing to offer you. When the map changes, it's because you hit a loading zone. 2 maps can't exist on the same coordinates. Therefore, the priority map is called in to take the place of another map. Also, you fell from up high. Try standing on the water and see if you die or can actually swim.
