Please, no vehicles! The jetski moments in Uncharted 1 were dreadful.
Dude, it's Naughty Dog. They LOVE vehicles. Remember their track record:
Crash
Crash 2
Crash 3
Crash racing game
Jak
Jak 2
Jak 3
Jak racing gameprotip: all eight of those games have vehicle segments. All. Eight.
-
Uncharted 2 did not, sooo… yeah.
-
I still think 9 out of 10 (counting Uncharted 1 and 2 in addition to the eight I mentioned earlier) is a strong precedent.

Multiplayer trailer and announcement of BETA beginning June 28 for PS+ or inFAMOUS 2 owners.
http://blog.us.playstation.com/2011/04/18/uncharted-3-multiplayer-modes-detailed/
I have a PS+ account so I'll check it out, but I don't care for multiplayer honestly, so doubt I'll play it much at all.
-
I want that too but it's $100 :cwy: . Still I NEED that.
-
I've never worn a belt buckle, but dammit, I'd pelvis thrust the shit out of that bad boy!
… wait. That came out wrong.
... wait. Dammit.
-
Welp, we got another demo at the Sony E3 conference, and it was terrific. I sure wasn't expecting Chloe to return, or to at least be more of a cameo than a supporting cast member.

The second video has developers talking about multiplayer and how they want Uncharted 3 to be the only game you play given the choice.
I still play Uncharted 2's multiplayer; so I'm more than excited. I don't think I've ever wanted to play a game more than I want to play Uncharted 3. The 28th can't come soon enough.
I put in a pre-order for the the Collector's Edition over the weekend. I went with Gamestop so I'll be getting the Creepy Crawler kickback.
-
IIRC, Collector's Editions usually come with all the retailer exclusive DLC. Meaning if you got the Collector's Edition at Best Buy, you'd still get the Creepy Crawlers kickback, and likewise for all retailers.
I'm still deciding on if I should bite on the collectors edition. I only really care about the Drake statue, and I have to ask if that's worth another $40. I have $96 in GameStop credit so I wouldn't spend much out of my pocket to get it, but at the same time I could get the vanilla UC3 and then be half way towards another game.
-
Christophe Balestra and Evan Wells are going to be on Jimmy Fallon's show tomorrow night. I'm not sure what they are going to be showing off this time. The disc says E3 but who knows exactly what it's going to be. It could be all stuff we've already seen or it could be brand new. It's a mystery. Guess we'll have to tune in to find out!
-
I… think I'm gonna pass. These gaming segments on Jimmy Fallon are always so damn awkward, he fails at every single one of them. I find it hard to believe he's actually a gamer.
I'm definitely jumping into the multiplayer beta came the 28th. I barely touched UC2 multiplayer, but gonna try UC3's.

- A more pacifistic Drake.
- Combat segments broken up more, so to avoid situations such as the large amount of combat towards the end of UC2.
- Harder puzzles.
I actually only think the second option is an improvement. Uncharted puzzles were just fine, they weren't hard, that's why they were good… if they're difficult they're gonna get in the way of the cinematic aspect of the game. How they're talking about "Drake doesn't shoot first" makes me feel they're designing the game where you can't pull out your gun and shoot an unalerted enemy, which is strange cause otherwise you sneak up behind them and break their neck, unless Naughty Dog is going to make Drake treat regular enemies like the guards at the beginning of UC2 where he simply makes them pass out.
Come to think of it... in the various bits of gameplay we've seen of UC3 I don't recall seeing Drake break any necks or shoot first (tho the shooting first thing could just be Naughty Dog not wanting to in their personal demos). All the hand-to-hand combat I've seen involved Drake simply punching out the enemy, or jumping from a height on top of them, knocking them out. So yeah, they definitely do seem to be making Drake less of a killing machine. Which I'm fine with, I just how the gameplay doesn't suffer.

Fuck the haters, I say: FUND IT.
Hype for Beta X3
All PSN+ users will get to keep it if they're PSN+ expires, otherwise you'll need a code or wait a week to play it. -
Actually, I'm told you lose the Beta if your Plus expires. I was going to download it with my gamesharing plus account… but I'm thinking the bonuses for completing the beta might be tied to the account you got the beta off of and not the PSN account playing it. The beta goes live for everyone else July 7th, so I guess I'll lose a couple days just to be safe. Also, believe it or not, but the beta's filesize is only going to be 1.7gb!
-
Wow so I can get this beta tommorw andnot have to buy infamous 2? Slick.
Finally a decent reason the plus subscription was beneficial!!
-
I never got into UC2 multiplayer, but I really wanna get into UC3's, so I'm gonna be there. Poor Alice is gonna have to take a back-seat I guess. Wondering if I should even start it today.
-

That's what I'm reading online anyways. At any rate, I'll be making the most of it ^_^
-
The Beta is live on the Hong Kong Store. The Hong Kong store takes products released in other regions and puts them on their store, as opposed to having their own unique versions. The UC3 beta up there is the English version. I'm gonna go ahead and jump into it and hope that I still get the bonuses for playing on my main PSN account.
-
The Beta is up in all American timezones! I'm downloading now!
I'll be playing all night! Hope to see you guys!
-
Was gonna come post that =)
GO GO GO!
EU gotta wait a few more hours, worse case scenario, you'll get it on Wednesday/Thursday >_< -
Cool. For being an employee at the place I work, we get a code to give us the beta.
Plus we get to use the creepy crawler kickback.
-
Come play with me if you guys want, just know I'm a total noob when fighting real people. XD
Buuhan1 is my ID, of course. I also have a headset.
-
Downloading the beta now, didn't think it would be out in Europe so quickly!
-
This thing is virtually unplayable. Random shut downs of the game you were in, long waits to find players, and the worst of all, constant freezes of the PS3 that requires a hard reset. I've been at it for over an hour, in total I got to play maybe 20 minutes and have had to hard reset my PS3 3 times cause the game froze and froze the system along with it.

Hmm, I'm having problems getting in at all! I can't even start the damn thing, but that may be due to my internet connection.
-
You're not alone. They said they prepared for heavy traffic, but I'm sorry, there's no way to prepare any server that can handle 20+ million people hitting it at once without problems. Least, no server a game developer can afford. They do a beta to get feedback on how the game plays, but all the feedback they're gonna be getting at this rate is the server issues.
-
Same shit happened to me.
Everything was fine the first match, but second the Cargo Plane mission started, everything started glitching and lagging.
I got stuck inside a metal container AND the concrete floor. I had to kill myself in order to get free. -
I played one match where everything was fine, but after that it got awful. I do love the new burst gun though, because the Fal kinda sucked from 2.
-
Attempt to play the beta #3!
- Connects and finds a game (already in progress) quickly, quicker than it ever has.
- Get into the game quickly but… it's lagged to hell and back. Like bullet-time mixed with a poor frame rate.
- I go to jump for a wall with a climbable brick on it, but due to the lag I jumped too early.
- When I landed from my jump... I fell through the ground and was under the map, being able to see everyone running around.
- After 2 minutes of trying to get out, I grenade myself.
- I run across the map and start to climb another wall, an opposing team member was actually behind me (didn't realize due to the lag).
- He melee's me while I'm climbing the wall and the moment the punch connects, the game and PS3 freezes yet ago.
Sigh... I really wanna play this... I dunno why I keep subjecting myself to this when I know it's just gonna fail again.
Also, attempt #2 involved me going to the plane strip for the first time. After some shootouts and jumping back and forth between the vehicles, I miss one and die. The game freezes at a closeup of the runway, all blurry textures. The clock was still ticking tho and I saw the player icons moving. The runway texture fully pops in (really nice and detailed too) and the moment it does the clock stops as does the player icons confirming that, yep, it is frozen.
-
Well….I couldn't even get pas the EULA before my PS3 froze.
I guess, at least, a large portion of the people using this will drop in a few days when their PSN+ expires.
-
@RuNa: A Naughty Dog rep confirmed today that the beta is accessible even if you no longer have Plus, you simply have to have plus (or a code) to download it right now. Then July 5th it goes up for free for everyone.
Managed to play an hour with not so much as a hiccup, I guess cause a lot of people are in bed now. It then was taking forever for me to find players so I called it a night.
-
Aside frm not being able to get in earlier in the day, I haven really had any problems at all. I've played for about a
Few hours and its been a blast -
So, who wants to form a group and focus on getting all the bonuses?
-
Why not, I'm in.
-
I wouldn't mind getting in a group, seeing as I tend to have bad luck with teams.
-
Beta Day 1:
A complete cluster f**k. Everything that could go wrong did, and then some. I was only able to pull out a couple hours worth of buggy games before calling it quits for the day.Beta Day 2:
After freezing my system multiple times I was finally able to get the update. Thankfully the update patch alleviated all of my woes. I have had solid games ever since.Beta Day 3:
I'm really liking all of the changes that have been made to Uncharted. Powerplays, Kickbacks, Loadouts, and Customization of characters and weapons are all welcomed features. The Powerplays make the game more epic. Once that music kicks in it's hard not to get pumped up, no matter what side you are on! Kickbacks add another layer to the game. Now you'll think twice before closing in on that guy in the corner. The feeling of luring a group of enemy players into a kickback trap is second to none. The customization shows promise. I'm hoping that what we have in the beta is just the tip of a VERY LARGE iceberg.Overall I'm quite pleased with the changes that Naughty Dog have made to the Uncharted series and am REALLY looking forward to 11-1-11.
-
I tend to never chase people around corners unless I know they didn't see me, because then it's basically a death for me no matter what I do.
-
I'm not great at the multiplayer, but I'm having fun enough.
-
Guess I got the beta after all that crap was hammered out as I haven't had a single bad game and I played over 8 straight hours tonight (yes, it's as sad as it sounds).
Edit: I see now, the problem seems to be team deathmatch as I played 2 matches to huge problems whereas hardcore/free for all is fine.
-
Oddly enough, Free for All is the funnest mode I've played besides Co-op. I guess it is because I'm not bound to a buddy like I am in other modes, where I often end of depending on him/her which kinda ruins the fun.
-
Managed to log into UC3 Beta even though my PSN+ expired =)
Remember to post any feedback on the Beta to the Naughty Dog forums-
http://forums.naughtydog.com/t5/Multiplayer-Beta-Discussion/bd-p/U3-MP-Beta -
Welp, I missed out on most of the bonuses. I didn't get to play Plunder AT ALL as I didn't get on UC3 Beta till the last day it was active, and matchmaking just wasn't playing ball. So I won't get the 10 Competitive emblem set, I also only managed to get 2 games of Co-Op Hunter in before it went away, so I won't get the 5 Coop emblem set either. All that leaves for me to be able to earn beyond the avatar is the cash bonus for reaching level 25, which I doubt I'll do.
Oh well, no big deal.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
Woah, I just jumped on the beta. Every single gametype is up and running! Didn't know they were gonna do that for the last phase of the beta. So I'm not out of the game yet, but matchmaking is still terrible.
-
ive been on the Free for all portion of the Beta.. my best was 6-15.
of course there were a few double KOs and for this being my first multiplayer game non demo ps3 wise..it was fun
-
I got such a rage inducing match last night. Motherfuckers shooting clean through walls from across the map and climbing up and camping in should-be-unreachable areas of the map. To top it off, they were fricken beasts.
-
Only problem I've had so far is lag which either fucks up an obvious kill or gets you killed in my case it's been both.
-
Did I mention that matchmaking sucks? 90% of the time I have to wait and then it finally puts me into a in-progress game. I DON'T WANT TO BE IN A IN-PROGRESS GAME. A game only counts towards these beta rewards if you're in it from the start, which is stupid but that's how it is. What's more stupid is it takes away the exit function once it locks you into an in-progress game, so your only options to quit out of it is to either wait the 30 seconds for you to get into the game and then choose "Leave Game" or to quit the game entirely and restart.
Also, I fucking hate Yemen, while pretty, that map sucks. It is waaay too big and clustered, and the whole match comes down to a King of the Hill tug-of-war match of which team are in the sniper towers.

that or in the airstrip area boxes ( im usually on the roof then jump for the riot shield.)
As for the towers..someone was talking about camping(whatever that means) and somehow it was said after me and 2 others were sitting in the towers…something also about fly on the wallForgot to mention... didnt realize how good people are.. i kept losing to a rank 11 and a rank 30.. but won 2nd place in a Yemen free for all match.
wish they gave the option to be a girl character... i got referred to as a guy after a double KO in the Jungle stage
