Rockstar has responded to player feedback for Red Dead Online's beta, specifically commenting on fixing the in-game economy.

"Our current areas of focus include the in-game economy, which will require some additional balancing in order to ensure all activities are appropriately rewarding and fun, as well as some persistent bugs that are causing some players to be kicked from sessions."

Rockstar's decision to focus on this fix first, is most likely a response from players complaining about the time it can take to earn just one gold bar in the game, which is approximately 8 hours.

Users on Reddit figured out the math involved, including user UnavailableIDs.

"Played around 4 hours yesterday. You need to get 100 nuggets to do one gold bar. You get in between 0.02 and 0.04 (0.02 gold bars = 2 nuggets) from series (deathmatch, races, etc.) which take 10 mins each or less," the Reddit user said.

It was previously detailed by Rockstar that the gold bars will be used to purchase cosmetic items in the Red Dead Online in-game Store, which will also include microtransactions when it's up and running.

Rockstar said that Red Dead Online was developed so they would be able to go in and make in-game adjustments quickly, indicating they are listening to player feedback. They plan to get the updates up by the end of this week, with more coming next week.
