I never used that. I just shot off his helmet and headshotted him. I have no idea why people are complaining about the armored guys in this. There are more of them but they're really easy to kill, just like in U2, and there's usually a lot of ways to do it in any given fight. The Mag-5, Tau, and T-Bolt also finish them off with a single headshot, even if their helmet is still on. You can also knock off parts of their armor until they bleed when you hit them there and they only take a few more shots than regular guys. Your NPC partners can also kill them without any help from you. If no other guys are in the vicinity melee will work since they won't try to shoot you while you're engaging them, although that takes a while.Rated-Rsuperstar said:

To those who pre-ordered Uncharted 3 from Amazon,
Did you guys get an additional email from Amazon saying "thank you for pre-ordering" and here is a code for a Nathan Drake Skin for multiplayer?
Thanks!

Both this and Resistance 3 were huge disappointments for me in terms of enemy variety. For some reason both games lack the same menu of shit to shoot at compared to their predecessors.
I think it's for PS Home. Not 100% sure though.

I don't think time was the issue. when I full wrap up U3, I'll do a write up and how I think they went wrong. I don't know who they had looking at these factors:
FACES. elena. distracting
shooting. also off.
pacing issues.
melee. boring.
seems to have a lot of instances where i went "what do I do next?"
companions bumping you/blocking you. Never experienced so much of this in the prior uc games. constantly.
movement seems worse in this. I also don't recall so constantly getting caught in corner etc el... and i don't like the constant look left/right that drake seems to do in UC3. weird.
also: this bit kind of felt like a bug but its pretty stupid and broken that when it happened; I was like "alright; that's just fucking stupid"
sinking cruiseship. at the very end escape bit. You can stand at the very end before the jump and the water hits you and you're dead. But if you jump; then they do a cutscene of you jumping off with the water into the sea. The instant death is pretty stupid as the water would have pushed you off the deck into the ocean anyhow.

Me neither, was pretty easy to get through. Though I missed
the trophy for taking out all the guys in trucks with melee. Going to do it during my current run (very easy).
i've definitely found it harder to aim in this game than in uncharted 2. i'm getting used to it though. loving the game so far! i'm not too far into it, as i have just gotten to
. i actually thought the whole
france
chase scene when you play young drake was incredible. it's awesome when you jump into that apartment kitchen and as you walk by the fridge drake flips the freezer door open and hits one of the enemies. so cool. the whole sequence reminded me of that one bourne movie where bourne hops from rooftop to rooftop and jumps into some apartments.

Yeah.
You just have to take out 10 guys in a row with melee on the trucks for a trophy.

Just checked and yeah, it's just 10 total. I thought it was in a row for some reason.

I don't get all the "I don't knew where I should go" complaints while at the same time the game is called linear....
Sorry, but there is some awesome Leveldesign in there, and with "open" levels you sometimes have to look around, I really don't see a matter there.

Yeah, not really.
Most of the combat scenarios are amazingly designed. You have so many places to go to/climb up to etc..
Because of this design you sometimes have to look where you can go further. But I prefer that to a corridor with enemies and a straight path, which some of you seem to want (or not, because then you would complain that it is too linear and boring).

Went into Uncharted 2 to compare the combat arenas, and ended up playing from Chapter 4 all the way through Chapter 15 at the end of the train. There's NO way I can put UC3 above UC2. The final boss may be bad, but the enemy reactions to bullets, the enemy placement in shootouts, the TYPES of soldiers placed in the encounters, and the aiming are all superior. Even the armored guys are way more manageable. And not having enemies that seemingly abuse invincibility frames to rush you makes the combat so much more fun. Oh and the first half pacing is WAY better as well.
I get what they were going for by making them more aggressive to close that distance, but it just feels like they were forcing the new melee system down the player's throat rather then letting it happen naturally. If you want to make Drake a scrappy Indiana Jones type where the fights are all very bar brawl, and "take what you can get" the AI has to be adjusted to where they recognize that you're fighting and to lay off a bit until the player starts shooting again. And cramming every enemy type into those scenarios didn't help matters either.
UC2 >> UC3 >>>UC1

I also am throwing my hat into the "not fond of the melee system" club. In Fortune and Thieves, the majority of the time it was a quick one two in the cheek and they're dead. Now you get.. forced even, into a fight sequence that is fine alone or in melee specific situations, but nine times out of ten, you'll be forced to fight, hand to hand when another 10 dudes are shooting your tits off.
And due to the fact the enemies now rush you, it happens far to often.
Not fun. Better then a penis in the eye, but still, not fun.

When a guy rushes up to me and tries to get me into a melee sequence, I just back off blindfire then steel fist, very satisfying.
Does anyone prefer melee on Crushing? I find the lack of on screen buttons helps out alot. I like the fight telling me when to counter not looking down to press triangle. In a strange way its made me like the combat system a whole lot more.
I am on my SIXTH playthrough. Now I'm attempting to get my first platinum. I absolutely love this game. 10 out of 10 the whole way.
However, I do agree, put Nate to bed for a while. Give ND three years for the next game, or at least launch it with PS4.

I'd like to elaborate a bit on this point.
So in the
Chateau, after you let Sully in and you have to ride some chandeliers to remove a beam, yada yada, you look around. You think, well, there are ornate ledges on the walls and bookcases underneath them. Let's see if I can climb up those and then jump to the upper level! ...no. You can't climb the bookcases. For whatever stupid reason. Then Sully calls you over and asks you to... right a bookcase. Which you then climb and use to jump to the upper level.
Which is not to say that this is new, I guess. Uncharted has always been this way. It just seems worse this time around.

You can melee with a fish, man. That unto itself made combat fun. But yes, the moment you can get out of melee, just shoot the guy(s).
I still have to do a Crushing playthrough before final opinion is set, but after having a couple days to reflect, I would rank the series:
UC3>=UC2>>UC1
I'm going to have plenty of time tonight to try out the multiplayer and co-op modes. I haven't played the multiplayer since the old Summer beta, so I'm interested to try it. I've heard that it's generally changed for the worse since then, but I'll have to see for myself I suppose.

Ah, should've known there is some goddamn bullshit firefight setups in a few last chapters. Classic Uncharted trademark at this point. If enemy accuracy was tuned down a tiny bit, some of those sections might have been awesome.
Great game nonetheless. Journey was amazing, even if story was a bit meh. Ending felt too familiar.

Last chapter was way too much like last chapter of previous game. Hopefully this is the last 'lost city' of this series
There is one part, later in the game (linzin said:
near the end of the ship graveyard
London, before you enter the empty warehouse, and the outsides of the cruise ship
I agree that it's nothing new in the series, and that it somehow seemed worse this time around.
Game just wants to stay FFFFFFFUUUUUU-worthy, till the very end, doesn't it? In the... "low visibility" fight, making good progress, trying to get a grenade launch to take out the last truck, laying low in cover so I can heal, and all of the sudden as if out of thin f'ing air, an armored shot gun dude comes up from behind me, kills me with one shot.
*turn PS3 off*

I would have appreciated the melee more if the enemies needed less hits to go down, and if you had more moves (and there were more animations for the bigger thugs... the multiple slaps to the face you gave them and their heavy kicks got old fast).Pranay_ said:

Holy shit at the difficulty spike in chapter 12/13, was killed like 6-7 times on Normal. Either way, the game because fucking awesome around chapter 9-10, and chapter 13 (
) is seriously the best thing I've seen on consoles this generation by far. I hope the game keeps up.
