Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection announced, October 9th, UC4 MP beta access

No multiplayer is a massive deal breaker for me. The campaigns are very good and are a visual treat but leaving out the multiplayer is pretty much leaving out a massive part of what makes Uncharted so good. Uncharted and Gears are still some of the better multiplayer games I've experienced in the past few years so I guess me eggs are well and truly in the Gears basket this year at least :(
 
No multiplayer absolutely stinks and just makes this collection incomplete. Will not buy at full price and potentially used if I can find it cheaper.

I couldn't care less for a beta this time around. I doubt I'd even be able to play during the testing period as is.

Despite its problems, Master Chief Collection still is the authentic "collection". Uncharted 2 and 3 without their multiplayer and coop is like half the game to me personally.

You just had to muck it up somewhere. eh Sony?

Best wishes.

industry standard this gen on remakes is to under deliver or fuck it up

lets just be glad it's the first one i guess
 
They could have JUST had UC2 MP. That would have been plenty.

Honestly, ugh. I NEVER imagined that this wasn't going to include multiplayer. It was always just an easy assumption that it would.
 
no u2 mp is a bummer (it was REALLY good), but I guess they want all their fans to focus on uc4 mp. Doesn't it come out in March/April next year? A beta should be available end of year.


Photomode is amazing news! Glad sony is showing this initiative with most of their exclusives. Love it!

Cant wait to see u1 updated. U2 & U3 look amazing already, but U1 needs a graphical update and cant wait to see how it looks.
 
By pre-ordering Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection now, you can receive the Nathan Drake Pack which includes single player skins of iconic Drake outfits as well as everyone’s favorite weapons: the Golden AK-47 and Golden 92FS guns. If you pre-order the digital download via the PlayStation Store, you will also get an Uncharted: Nathan Drake Collection PS4 dynamic theme.

What the fuck is this? Pre-order to gain access to content that was already in the original games?
 
Amazing! But no MP? That's sad. Hope the UC4 Beta goes a little longer than one week. Maybe until the full game gets released? ;)
 
Guess I'm buying a PS4 on October 7. Even though it's triple dipping, one of those dips is my favorite single player campaign of all time.
 
Really good to here that they're all native 1080p and 60fps, these games still look amazing even when comparing them to current generation games so giving them a bit of a polish should work wonders.

Nice to see them making a point of them being done by Bluepoint. They don't usually make a fuss of who it is dealing with the remaster, the fact that they're doing it here is the closest thing we'll get to them publicly criticising Other Ocean.
 
"We'll have a product for those who want Uncharted multiplayer, it's called Uncharted 4."

Yeah, except that comes out in Spring.

And this MP beta will probably last only 2 weeks and include 2 maps.

While UC2 MP was fucking amazing and would be awesome to play in 60fps.
 
Oh.

I thought he meant graphical things.

Secret Theatre is the only thing that even slightly matters here, right? And even that's not a big deal.

I think the only thing they updated graphically were the HUD elements and the menus, which was a bit of a no-brainer, along with an aspect ratio toggle for the cutscenes. It's not the most pristine 60 fps on the planet, but it holds it well most of the time, and even at its worse, it runs far better than the game ever did on the PS2.
 
I hope they include the OG ball-busting UC1 Crushing difficulty complete with ridiculous endless waves of bad guys. And make it a requirement for the plat.

It'll separate the true fans from the players.
 
The removal of multiplayer was probably a way of forcing people to play uncharted 4 multiplayer when it comes out. They might want the entire community to move on to that game to experience uncharted multiplayer instead of having to keep servers and patches going for multiple games. A stupid reason, but it's still a reason.
 
Of course this will be $60. Remastering these three games is hard work. That's a lot of content to bust out at 1080p/60fps.
 
That means not only allowing you to play the single-player campaigns of Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, and Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception in 1080p and 60fps with better lighting, textures, and models, but they’re also working on a range of improvements and additions across all three games.

Fuck yes! Definitely the best news to me.

Can't wait to replay Uncharted: DF on Crushing!
 
No Golden Abyss?! Laaaaaaaaame.

Still, with bluepoint behind it, i'm sure it'll work a bit better than the MCC. (there are still some minor issues with Singleplayer that annoy the hell out of me to this day with that collection)
 
No mp?

Fuck this, I'm out.

Even just one of them, 2 or 3. Doesn't have to be both.

Fucking weak.

You got UC4 multiplayer access(may be in 2-3 months after collection) and UC4 will be out in 5 months so why do we need that old multiplayer when we have nextgen multiplayer to play. However UC is mostly famous for single player and we have 3 full games with updated visuals, framerate and other improvements/features like photo mode, so its a good value.
 
No multiplayer is surely because they want it to be a big selling point of UC4, can't have people sticking around playing the MP of UC2/3 when UC4 is available.
 
Wait... People actually played the multiplayer in these games?
UC2 multiplayer was the single best multiplayer experience on the PS3.

The Uncharted 4 beta absolutely does not make up for the lack of multiplayer. It'll be around for a few weeks and then it'll be gone. I'm happy the collection is happening, but the lack of multiplayer is extremely disappointing.
 
No multiplayer stinks, but I understand why after MCC bailed out hard.

Also, with that UC4 MP beta, I have a strong feeling that's getting included with E3 theater experience people..
