Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Journalists were too busy fawning over the production values to properly critique Uncharted 3 like a fine gentlemen like myself would, so no, none mentioned it in their reviews as they were too busy giving it 10/10.
And I'd argue that the significantly slower speed and semi-digitalised aiming (or as it seems) is enough to warrant it as problematic regardless of how functional it is, simply because there was little to no issue with Uncharted 2 and no change at all was necessary.

Meh. I just watched a life insurance ad with stupid male being educated by clever wife, sexism is rampant in all advertising.pilonv1 said:

my point is that Naughty Dog may have designed the game to have this new shooting system on purpose. They are changing it because the fans don't like it, fair enough.
My point is that it is a different system and that is why people are angry. They wanted the same as UC2. Fine. but there is the right for a developer to change something that they want to change for a game.
It's not a bug, it was intentional and I personally don't mind the system. I get others don't like it and i get why. But it was never a bug.....
it was clearly designed to be that way

@Choc - I didn't import SM3DL, I put faith in Nintendo Australia to get us a review copy early enough... May or may not have been a good idea.
I'm actually getting quite annoyed playing UC3, it's more 'omg this is bullshit' with the bullet sponging and 50 dudes it throws at you. Gave up on it yesterday, might just have to drop the difficulty level just so I can enjoy the story.
Also played Sonic Generations over the weekend and some BF3. I actually had a weekend where I did nothing but play games and watch TV. Oh and other stuff... but yes. Awesome weekend.

Wasn't saying it was bugged, was saying it was shit, and they designed it that way, meaning they designed it to be shit.
Uncharted 3's encounters are indefinitely worse than Uncharted 2. They hark back to Uncharted's kill room where unpredictable waves of enemies flood in. They're make for much clumsier stealth sequences too.
Also, we haven't heard from Nintendo regarding SM3DL review copies, though we've asked what's up. We're just crossing our fingers.

Just because it was designed that way, doesn't mean it wasn't a mistake either.
I am an arrogant cock when it comes to my dev work, but I can at least admit when the design was wrong from a user perspective.
I think you may be right that there was an intention to 'evolve' it, but there are videos that show the severity of input lag. By design or not, input lag is never a good thing.Choc said:no

But I think the biggest issue players are having has to do with auto-aim and it slowing down a lot once the cursor is over an enemy. That's clearly a design choice that didn't work out from what I've read.

They'll probably send Zelda and Super Mario 3D Land at the same time I'd imagine.
I don't know whats going to happen with Mario Kart 7 and the release dates being so close, I'll probably just go buy it anyway.

Noone is saying its bugged choc. People are saying the controls are bad, or considerably inferior to uc2s excellent controls. There is a difference between reality and what you are arguing.
Go get an icypole. The lack of aircon on a hot day is doing you a disservice.

Completely agree but that doesn't mean the UC3 shooting is not a bug

It takes a lot more strategy than in UC2, you need to prioritise enemies depending on their weapon (and colour which is handy) and work out the best path around a room to hopefully get an aerial instakill at some point. If you can take out the long range sniper/grenade launchers it is a matter of holding your ground against the little guys and making sure any heavy guys are handled.VOOK said:I'm actually getting quite annoyed playing UC3, it's more 'omg this is bullshit' with the bullet sponging and 50 dudes it throws at you.

The bullet sponging has always been annoying and UC3 doesn't change the fact that getting up nice and close is the best option, aside from long range headshots with a powerful weapon.

Doesn't every game have 'role playing elements' these days?Dead Man said:Some crazy person on TV just called AC an RPG. :/

Yeah, but calling something an RPG hyrid, or an action game with RPG elements seems to be a bit a difference to calling it an RPG.Omi said:Doesn't every game have 'role playing elements' these days?
