Red Dead Redemption/Getting Started

HUD
Red Dead Redemption's heads-up-display is rather simple. The minimap is found in the bottom left corner of the screen, which shows your current location and the area around you. Mission and activity markers are displayed on the map. If a marker is out of range, it will be displayed at the edge of the minimap in the direction of its location. Above the minimap, the amount of ammo remaining in your weapon's clip is displayed, next to the amount remaining in your weapon overall.

Any actions which are available to the player will appear, along with the control button needed to trigger it, in the bottom-right corner of the screen. Mission help and game tips will appear in the top-right corner of the screen periodically during the opening missions. When playing competitive multiplayer modes, the current game's scores are shown as bars in the top right hand corner of the screen. If you are Wanted, your bounty will also appear here.
