Boom! Bitch-slapped!
Are you outside or inside? I had a harder time outside than inside.

I never thought about it being game related. It always seemed random to me and at home I will sit on a balance ball 3feet away from the TV.
I always figured it was related to signal interference or something from all of the wireless devices around our apartment complex.

I'm at the Sniper on Grounded, best route? tried being sneaky and going left but there's tons of dudes that know I'm coming
On hard I stealth killed everybody but the guard on the catwalk on the right hand side. Then I threw a bottle at him to get his attention and then took cover and let Ellie kill him.
The next flood of guys I did basically the same way. I am not sure if their hearing is more sensitive on grounded because I haven't gotten there yet. I was able to stealth the museum area pretty easily on grounded though.

are there specific areas you guys are having trouble with?
some general tips:
most of the time you don't have to kill everyone
some encounters can be bypassed entirely (sometimes you don't have to kill anyone)
its ok to run away
if you're getting rushed, try running back to another area or forward and spreading the pack out so you can deal with one at a time.
sometimes its ok to let stealth go and fight, you'll have to improvise with bricks, the environment, running, melee combat and guns, but in some encounters this can be easier than constantly failing at stealth.

I can't wait to play this on easy. On my second hard run and I'd like to blast anything that moves for a while.

I don't know. I'm just not feeling this game. I completed it on PS3 and wondered why I couldn't really remember it very well. Having started again on PS4 I can see why, I just find it...overrated. I don't think much of the remaster, the graphics just don't look that great and Im struggling to find anything pretty enough to fire up photo mode for. I had also forgotten the last gen clunky movements such as a character 'sliding' into place to climb a ladder/open a door etc.
EDIT: Oh, and what the FUCK is up with the PS4 fans during this game?! They kick in during the title screen and don't let up for the whole game. At least with other games they spin down regularly. The problem here is late at night, trying to have a scary gaming session in the dark, the tension is building with one of many almost silent scenes with faint background noises and the PS4 is like "VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV!!!" Absolutely ruining the moment.

I finished it on Hard last night. It may just be my favourite single player story of all time. The ending was brilliant - I haven't been able to think of anything else all day.
I have about 40 collectibles left to get, is Chapter select the best way to get them?

How do you check that?
You can check it out in the Chapter Select at the title screen.

No work tomorrow so I might just start up Survivor tonight. Im gettin a hankerin for bashing faces into walls.
Cheers mate
That's why the photo thread is so small. It's an ugly game with nothing worth savoring.

I just got inside. Took my a few times outside to down all the enemies. I ended up standing on top of a bus and kicking the runners off every time they tried to climb up lol
Inside though, I made it to the part where you get into the classroom and two runners and a clicker appear out of a door on the far end. Took me about 5-6 tries to get to that point. They spotted me immediately, I ran out the door they entered through only to find 3 more infected in that hall.

Holy crap. I am pretty frustrated right now. I've never played The Last of Us, and I recently picked up the remastered edition. I was really enjoying the game until
the area after meeting up with Tess after having Ellie. I'm at the portion where the military guy comes into the building with everyone hiding inside. Tess says "Hey, see if you can distract him." I throw a brick and he turns around and looks, and so does every other person in the area. The second I try to strangle the bastard, I get riddled with bullets. For how unbelievably stupid the AI just was while I was just crawling around in plain view in a trench, this sudden jump in difficulty where it seems damn impossible to get by this asshole is very frustrating. It makes the stealth system seem stupid and frustrating. I really just want to advance in the god damn game.
haha this was great. Grounded seems like a pain!
I'm in ch5 on Survivor and on NG+ it's a bit too easy, but mostly because Ellie still gives ammo when you're really low on supplies.
Throw the brick at him, auto aim should lock on his head, then sprint at him and melee. Takes him out without drawing attention and you fan easily walk by everyone else.
Are you outside in the pouring rain? If so, you can just book it to the other side without having to do much of anything.

That was definitely the creepiest part of the game for me.
Absolutely. With the headphones on....seriously.
I said it earlier but that's one of those parts so memorable where you can just say "the basement" and everyone will immediately know EXACTLY what you're talking about.

Thanks, that worked. I just don't get how bashing a guys face in with a plank drew less attention than me strangling him while all of his buddies were looking at the brick I just threw.
The sound doesn't carry as far.

Absolutely. It was a great design and pacing choice.

oh wow i just discovered from one of that guy's videos you can actually listen to the
voice recorder that joel fast forwards through at the university lab
Heyo_Rockbreaker

So why do the guys always become alert when I try to strangle him? Is it because they are alert after I have thrown the brick?

Is the subway level right after Capitol building supposed one big murky green mess?
God damn the final fight on Left Behind on survivor was something.
I think I got really lucky actually.
Somehow managed to not die at all which I will consider a mini-miracle. I recall dying a handful of times on Hard when I first did it on PS3.
No. I have no idea what the hell happened there.
I like when you dive underwater and everything looks amazing.
I think I got really lucky actually.
Before the main fight where you go through the final area filled with infected and hear some guys coming down, I tossed a single brick and they all killed eachother with one guy surviving, who I took out with a single arrow. During the last fight this almost happened again, but two people survived the infected rush.

Theyre always alert, but yeah they probably see you doing it because theyre walking towards the general vicintiy of where you are or where you threw the brick.

I tried this yesterday
run past everyone in the first area, up the stairs, through that room with the map in it, jump out the window. you may take a little damage, you may need to melee kill a guy but if you can get out to the bridge area fast enough you can get to the door they come out of first, and if you have a nail bomb, just toss it by the door and wait for them to come BOOM
Yep that's where I gave up. Fuck that noise. Love the game to bits but it aint worth that much frustration for me personally. I wouldve been able to get through it if they didnt dick you over with the checkpoint. Having to do that entire interior fight on top of the battle outside was just too much.
I'm pretty sure you're forced to follow the game's instructions at that part: throw brick then melee to finish him. It's not usually like that.

I don't think it's supposed to be like that, no
At least I hope not anyway...
Oh good. It looks terrible, and as you say you dive underwater and it looks fantastic. How very odd.

if you can get to the door they spawn from on the outside part, throw a molotov, takes them all out
Marvel
could never
I believe I have one molotov left, I shall save it for that part.
Nope. Im choosing to be a pussy and not go down the Grounded route again.
For at least a few months.
Yeah it's bullshit on Grounded. I vented about it a couple pages back too.
Decided to watch this vid and use this exploit (same one milkham just described).
That part is a horrible mess on Grounded, there was no need to remove that checkpoint.
People rarely mention that this game always looks awesome underwater.

Played Left Behind for the first time, It's decent but nowhere near as good as the main game. It had a much more lighthearted tone compared to the sad and depressing main story. Also i felt the scene with ellie and riley was a bit forced.
Jjust watched the movie The Road last night too and now im gonna replay the main game 2 great experiences back to back.

I just let the AI do most of the work.
I noticed some bumpage from the allies in that part too, but it only took me 3 tries to get through nonetheless.
