It's not like they just suddenly did a price cut out of nowhere. People arent losing any money or anything. It's free skins. SKINS. You paid for the comic...be happy with the comic.Jax said:
You know what...sometimes I dont get a straw, or ketchup, from McDonalds when I order a meal. I dont freak out
It's not that bad.
Now, about this screenshot business.
Look at the difference between these 2 sets of pictures.
Exhibit A:
You see this crap?? Looks like horseshit. It's ugly as hell. Ugly textures and jaggies everywhere.
Now chk out these screens:
Exhibit B:
You see this? This looks so much more awesome-er. Lot less jaggies and the textures look good. It doesnt seem like somebody smeared the colors on the textures and it just has an overall softer look to it. Dont tell me it's because of the Depth of Field/blur in the screenshot because I've seen the same thing with screens that have DoF in them.
I dont get why there's such a big difference between each poster's screenshots.
Irish said:Yep, we had a few insanely good games. However, I have to say, throwing the treasure makes sense in most cases, but there are a few times where it can and should be ran.
I'm still amazed at how fast this game plays. By throwing I don't necessary mean having to throw it to another person (you can, of course), just keep chucking it and picking it up, it minimizes the time when you're weighed down by the treasure and can only fire your pistol, as soon as you throw it you're back to being able to fire a rifle and becoming less of a target and more of a threat.

You guys can keep those skins, that lady is scary!
edit: on unrelated note, I hope my mic comes in today so I can become even more addicted to this game.

What is it with this generation and ungodly freaky women hands? Is it some kind of developer fad like bump mapping, bloom lighting or the next gen filter?Jax said:
Five dorra we love you long time. She looked so cute in the comic, here she looks like a taiwanese transvestite. must be becase she's euro exclusive :lolJax said:
Not that I have anything against taiwanese transvestites.
[edit] VVV I'll tell you what I have against Euros: you guys got two exclusive skins and I want them! :lol
It was all in good fun, my man, I wasn't trying to offend anyone

Welcome to 3D rasterization? 720p, 2xAA and trilinear filtering- it doesn't matter how awesome your engine is, a photo mode is bound to show some warts when you're dealing with 'infinite' angles.

Some of you need to calm the hell down on this bonus skin business.
We even have the benefit of having one of the devs right here, and this is how you ask for things? It doesn't even look like it was NDI's prerogative who had what made available to them.
Give it a little time; we already got The Fort as an extra, and I doubt that's where they plan to end it.
EDIT: Yessss! Look what I found by random luck at the NDI site:
They definitely have more cards under their sleeves.

depends on
a) treasure picked up
b) death lows your score
c) saves raises it
d) what you kill. Gatling guys are worth $$$$
e) weapon you use to kill with varies score
f) headshots are worth more

*re: guys comments on rika. She's hilarious to play with though. Her dialogue and look is great.

now for a bit of shocking MP breaking talk.
Arne, there's a whole lotta buzz about the 3 booster "glitch"... It works.Fix this shit GG.

played a plunder game vs some guy who didn't go for treasure + had DTI+fleetfoot. I see why people are complaining about it now. Very frustrating. He ended up with 62 kills when people who played the game right had 30+
You get different points depending on how you killed the enemy (headshot, bodyshot, punch, pistol, rifle, sniper, etc...) and when you killed him (you obviously get more points in the later rounds when the multiplier is x10). Either way points don't matter and more often than not, you'll reach the $25k kill cap before the game ends, even with a low kill count.grimmbomb said:

Im in the mood for that Skeleton Dance Party to celebrate Uncharted 2's win.
Anyway, I think Ive come to like using grenades now, its gets so amazing letting go of three grenades in one small area around opponents, sometimes they just cant roll anyway out the way, or on the Village, just standing up in a high area and dropping several of them right by the person walking with the treasure, double and triples are quite common , lol.

EYE OF INDRA 01-04 review now that I've watched them
If I had paid the full price they were asking for episode 2+3+4/episode, I would have been stonking mad. Episode 2 was like supershort and 3 was as well. As for the animation look, well, its interesting but what was here wasn't. The story, which involves a heist/adventure, didn't go anywhere.
. Video also had way too much 1 hour earlier/1 day earlier/30 minute earlier/earlier time cuts in its narrative.
Also watching it, where's rika dragon tattoo on her 3D model? Really not surprised Eddy Raja is a skin because he featured so prominently in the videos as well.
4/10
worth it for the skins but I wouldn't be buying future ones as standalones or without the skins. This is a 1gb download I won't be revisiting.

Irish said:Dedication, aka EatDeath, let it be known that you are forbidden from using the Micro when playing against me, BrokenOath. (Your skills were lacking son. Plus you took all the ammo.
Whoa I actually played against you today? I guess I need to rewatch the match! lol.

Well maybe we will meet again, Ive been trying to diversify the weapons I use, though I think I still need a bit of practice cause some matches I get utterly crushed while others, I can easily wipe the floor.

One thing I don't understand is "WHY" this was 1GB download. The comics could easily be authored in Flash which PS3 natively supports (for all I know, they were made with Flash in the first place), making it a tiny download.Jax said:
Moreover, WTF is with making Ep1 a regular Video and sticking 2-4 into standalone executable that DOESN't support basic "play/pause/rewind/forward" functions. The pay episodes actually take functionality away and give nothing in return (other then forcing me to quit playback by using "in-game XMB" -__-.
If infrastructure wasn't there to release smaller Flash files, at LEAST these could have all been videos I can - you know, playback any way rather then having to replay whole comic if I accidentally pressed X during playback.
That aside, I kinda enjoyed the way story was told and art presentation, but really the above HAS to be addressed in the future releases. Just run the PSP comic viewer or something if all else fails :/
