I loved every goddamn second of this game. The story. The set pieces. The lulls. Everything. EVERYTHING.

chapter 16 now and i can see where the criticisms are coming from; gunfights are not very interesting and for some reason i find gunplay less smooth than before. having said that, the game is an epic ride, the amount of attention to detail is orders of magnitude above everything else. and the amount of stuff naughty dogs packs in one chapter alone, puts many "whole" games to shame.
graphically speaking it is probably the most polished, accomplished, consistent game ever, on any platform.

Is it me or is the floor tile puzzle in
COMPLETE FUCKING SHIT? I have absolutely no idea how to complete it, I have been trying for around an hour now. The game even told me the solution in the book but I still can't do it. It's slightly more shit than the equally vague "secret room" puzzle shortly before.

What does that got anything to do with? I got the 100 HS thing if you're suggesting I suck at aiming. And blindfiring armored guys? I was talking about the stupidity of putting closed environment where your system doesn't encourage you to hide behind the cover anymore. I'm saying they need to ditch the close environment system if they want to do what they do in UC3. That means that scenario on the boat deck need to go.

I really don't get it. Youtube it is. The water puzzle in Onimusha is a walk in the park compared to this.

its quite easy, look at the symbol under your feet then push the tiles in the same order as written on your diary. remember if you see 4 "x" 's in your diary this means you have to walk on 4 tiles with an x on them before moving to the next symbol and so on until you reach the last tile
you dont need to jump.
KennyLinder said:
What? Its so easy though... Look at the symbols on the floor and then look at how they are arranged in your notebook. When you walk on them in the appropriate order, it creates a direct path to the other side. Also listen for pressure plate activation/visual cues showing they pressed down.
Honestly I hope the next game in the series features the same amount of puzzles that actually feel like puzzles.

Calm down. You're whining about the lack of cover and dude's rushing you. Dude's rush you from every angle when you stay in one place. The piano room, for example, has multiple cover spots if you look around. There's a bunch of cover spots at the start of the piano room, under the balcony, where the check point starts. There's a large area beyond the piano (with two small stair ways that lead down to it) with multiple full size boxes which you can use as cover and kite heavy dudes.

Finished it and i'm a little bit disappointed in it. Something felt off about UC3. Not only the aiming, but... i don`t know. For me its definitely the worst in the franchise and i hope ND is giving Uncharted 4 (hopefully on PS4) some more time and make it more like a videoGAME instead of a VIDEOgame.

Reading comprehension is failing on your part! I am not whining about the lack of cover. I'm talking about having to fight armored guys in closed environment. And that piano room was a breeze for me. I was talking about the boat deck with the machine gun looney and the Airport section.

They work when there is actual cover that you can get to, but you're missing his point. It's clunky and sometimes cheap.

did something change between the trailer footage and the final game because really don't like Elena's new face. Its the eyes. they look so different from her U2 and U1 eyes. Maybe it was just the lighting when you first meet her?
Also YAY!! I had a hard freeze right after that.

Is it just me or the subtitles are a bit out of sync just before chapter 8 begins?
I haven't played any further after that cut-scene when they reached
and there's no more out of sync before that part.
Just wondering if anybody noticed it and if there's more of that through out the game.

this is EXACTLY how i feel.
Replicant said:
Relax. You kept complaining that the cover system is broken.
I think the armored dudes move fairly slow and that was an obvious design decision. So slow that they are rarely a threat unless you don't move around. If you feel the game doesn't give you enough space to maneuver around the heavier dudes then that's fine. I thought the sections you listed had plenty of room to run around and plenty of cover.

The first game was mostly gunplay, with bits of platforming. The second game had a nice balance of gunplay and platforming. So far (I'm only on Chap 13. Part 3 has increased the amount of puzzles, and made combat more challenging and platform heavy. It feels like a natural progression to the series.Kagari said:
I can see that some people are annoyed with the "location jumping", but this kinda stuff doesn't bother me much at all. I think they should have done a few more "traveling" scenes, so that you don't cut from France to Syria in a heartbeat.
Other then that..
So far I think the story is easily the best in the series.
The first game had a LOT of annoying gunplay in it, and you werent nearly as capable or mobile. It was basically a Gears clone in that regard. Part 2 added vertical combat. Part 3 pretty much requires you to use vertical and horizontal movement in battle.
I don't see how people could be disappointed with this. The combat finally sheds the "Gears-lite" title its been given by so many.

I felt so too for a long while. Then a couple of weeks ago, I decided to finish my Crushing run of Uncharted 2, to prepare for 3. But that didn't take as long as I had planned, so I loaded up Uncharted 1 and started a new game on Hard (I forgot that I had deleted the old save to everything again for the trophies). When I had finished that, and I really enjoyed it, but I find that I preferred U2. U1 felt like a good game, while U2 felt like a fantastic game. I love all the games in the series, but I'm inclined to say that right now, the games have only become better for me. I can't say I will feel that way in a year or two, because it may just be "new game in the series syndrom" kicking in, but right now, that's how it feels.

Am I the only one that favored the first half of the game? Chapters 1-11 are my favorites and the
is probably my favorite moment in the entire game. Don't get me wrong...I love the second half of the game for it's insane set pieces and action. However,
I also loved the surprising amount of awesome puzzles at the beginning.

As of right now, this was a 10/10 game for me although I was a little disappointed with the rushed feel of the last couple chapters. That rating may change over the next couple of months, but that's how I feel right now.
burning chateau
Drake is pretty much alone for the entire last half of the game...it doesn't have that constant banter between partners. I loved having Sully along for the ride in the first half.
I really don't get the complaints about the
Yemen section either. I spent so much time walking through that market area and just focusing in on all the little shops and taking in the beautiful graphics.

Their slow movement is compensated by the fact that they often come in pairs or accompanied by sniper + grenade launcher. And their armor meant that even though Nate goes down in 1 shot from shotgun, it'd take multiple bullets to dislodge their helmet then headshotting. And you are vision impaired if you think the deck is a large area. There's pretty much nowhere to run. Especially since the cargo moves around. All you can do is moving around in circles waiting for the GL guy to come out.cameron said:

. Fucking great game. Uncharted 2 2 through and through, but I didn't mind. I'm just bummed there wasn't more Cutter. :/
Favourite chapters: definitely the Chateau, like most people, the chase in
and
. I know that last one is basically a remake of a chapter from U2, but I thought it was done much better here. Ending is what it is, glad there's no dumb boss fight but I also feel the resolution with regards to the villains was a bit underwhelming.
Gonna jump into MP tomorrow, probably.
they sure nailed fighting Ghost Rider
