Does anyone know what the deal is with ND's stats pages? It says my most used hero skin is something that I can't even purchase yet, and the kills/playtime/etc stats seem to have no correlation whatsoever to what is actually displayed in the actual game stats menu.

As soon as school's out I need to get back into this. 
Thanks to double cash weekend I got to level I or whatever (the one after 50). Pretty cool. I mean it was a combination of playing it more because of the DLC and the double cash but still. I did get to try the maps once each again today. I prefer The Museum a bit myself, but maybe it's because I'm just a bit better at it. The Highrise seems to not suit my style of play. I have used the sniper rifle in them both a lot more than I do in any other level. I never even pick the sniper up in other levels.

So, if we both happened to get banned at the same time, will we be forced to rely on that Xbot, Somnium?
Anyway, I had a great time last night guys. Not because I like the game again (not at all), but because it was fun to play with some of the group I haven't had a chance to see in a while.
I need to play with Yeef, Gyrian, Lux, Jeramii, Kilgore, CJ, and Dave some more as well.
So, Naughty Dog, got any plans for another experimental weekend? You can call it the "Uncharted 2 Classic" experimental weekend and put everything back to the way it was. You can set up another poll, ignore the results if they go against what most of us want, and then change stuff anyway. Then, you can turn that experimental weekend into an experimental couple of years, right?

Someone has any tips to get the BBQ medal? I'm at lvl 35, and managed to get only one until now, and it was in Plunder ._.

I hate randoms so much. My team was down a man already and getting our asses kicked and some douchebag decides to kick me because he is such an idiot that he runs over to my grenades twice in a row.

sometimes you kick people because you're pressing x and the game pops up those screens kind of suddenly. I've been kicked by my mates by mistake.
so the new mappacks are good? I bought the last DLC but I played maybe 2 weeks and almost everyone has moved on so I didn't get this one yet.

how long does double XP go because I cant fix my internet until tmr afternoon
5 million in one sitting! That's what I call a lazy Sunday. Hit Level 58, now I get to use Come Get Some.
Hey, ND, raise the cap to $75K or $100K all the time. You might worry higher caps = more farming, but higher caps actually encourage more negative boosters from the most skilled players, which is a good thing for the newbs. All weekend, been running into a ton of guys using double-negatives. Much better than the usual "Sit. Awareness / FF" combo I always see. Makes the game a lot more balanced and fun!

well since they nerfed the explosion radius, BBQs are pretty tough. Not to mention they don't respawn and they aren't on any of the DLC levels. You could quickly run to it as soon as the match starts and set a trap up in a high traffic area and shoot it when someone runs by.
They should be respawned after 5 minutes or so, and should be on all the levels. They're not.

Went from level 42 to 48. ND should do more double XP weekends since it's pretty much the only thing that gets me playing anymore.
Wish it was double XP all the time :lol

I haven't played the game in a while so I had 5 updates waiting to install. It got stuck around 54% on the 4th update then eventually gave me some sort of connection error and went back to the XMB. I tried starting the game again then it prompted to install the updates once more. It said "Please wait" then the whole PS3 rebooted and I had to resync the controller again! It did this twice in a row but then it started working right and now the last 2 updates seem to be downloading fine. Should I be worried? I hope it's not a bad sign...
EDIT: ugh gave me an error 80710723 on the final update... Wonder if it's the game, my console, or my wifi network...

I'm going to miss Double Cash weekend when it ends Monday. At least we got Double Cash, though, I thought we weren't going to get it again for a very long time. I only have 3 more trophies to get as well. I just need You Cant Break Me, You Run, Ill Shoot, and Kneel Before Z
. I have two medals towards the Kneel Before Z... trophy. One I did intentionally, and the other just happened awesomely. They were both in The Lost City. The first one I got, was done by throwing a grenade down by an enemy and running by him blindfiring the pistol. The other was cool. I was running for the hammer down below, but a teammate got it. I saw a dude in front, and I started shooting him with the pistol. At the same time, my teammate was using the hammer against him, so I got the medal. I didn't even think I was going to get it that time, but I'm glad I did.
Going through Co-op Objective on Crushing is going to be rather difficult. I'll just have me and my friend play through them, since it was easier with just two people to get through them on Hard. Nepal is going to be the easiest, then The Sanctuary, and then... oh goodness, The Village. The Village gave me nightmares after going through it on Hard, and now I have to go through it on Crushing. I'm determined to get that trophy, so I will when my friend has time. The You Run, I'll Shoot trophy seems like it's going to be a bit challenging as well. I'll make sure when I play Plunder to shoot anyone who is shooting at the treasure bearer. I just think this trophy will take the longest, especially since each medal requires 5 kills. I haven't played Plunder much, though, so it might actually be easy, I don't know.

Not as deep as he thinks

Today, I played with a Yet-To-Be-Approved NeoGAF member! That was a trip! Out of all the times I've played with random people, today marks the first time someone recognized the name "GAF". Hahahaha.
So Mr. Benjiman, if you're reading this thread...I played with you tonight! We kicked ass dude. One of these months/years/YEARS/YEEEEEEEEARS you'll be approved! :lol

Damn, that sucks.
Oh well, at least you 'busted yo grill' like a man instead of randomly chipping a tooth while eating re-fried beans at Jaripeos.
Now for the U2 joke:
That shit wouldn't have occurred pre-1.05. Should have been camping at the goal with Situational Awareness instead of skating around.

Melfice, those snaps are awesome!
Navarro just lends himself to photography. Here, let me dust off and old classic.
Sad to have missed mostly all of the moneyed weekend, but there were some great games last night. Except for that one Plunder in Highrise with the three level X players. Not one attempt from that team to get the treasure. They racked up the kills, we racked up the win. How is this fun for them, again?

You die in two punches. Protip: don't bother throwing two punches. What you need to do is shoot a few bullets into the guy and then throw a punch, that will usually a kill him. 3 bullets or so will do it. Most of the time you'll both die, but it's better than you just dying.

managed to get a few lagless games in this afternoon. the lowered hp really isn't a problem when your not dying after getting into cover or being melee'd after you killed the guy. Infact i think the pace is a lot better. shame it doesn't hold up when there's even a tiny bit of lag.
Wish the DLC wasn't so overpriced cos i'd probably make U2 the exception to my rule about not paying for maps. I could probably play a bit more with you guys and not feel guilty about denying you playtime on the new maps (tis why i left when id did last night after wowbagger said he missed them).

Well I imagine they like killing dudes, and people focused on capping the treasure make easier targets. I imagine some people out there would be happy just shooting unmoving targets with no weapons as long as they're is someone out there in the real world 'controlling' the target.

This is rediculous as Ive now using Invalid and Half-Loaded I seem to have been getting no less than 15 kills each match, lol.
PedroLumpy said:
True enough, but what baffles me is that this would make sense from a 'need-to-grind-more' mentality, yet these guys were both very high level or downright maxed out. They can go nowhere else but to play the game for the sport, so to speak. This isn't what they were doing. It didn't showcase a great level of skill, and it doesn't even sound fun over the long run.
It's as if we had been playing Gold Rush against player-controlled baddies, come to think of it.
