Uncharted 3 |OT| All Developers Dream, But Not Equally

I loved your first reply before you edited it, Mikey. :lol :lol

Can't wait for the patch notes tomorrow. Should be sweet. Don't be too shocked about the IGN thing, since they did the same thing with the beta.

Anyway,

I had the most epic rematch EVER in Team Objective. It was me, code, SjShane (ND forum poster) and GS2 against a party of four who had ridiculous good stats in The Village. First objective comes up and it's chain reaction. We lose that one and Treasure Hunter comes up. We manage to beat them in that round so it was 1-1. Deathmatch came out and we lost. 2-1. Final objective was Turf War and we got fucking destroyed so badly. We didn't capture a single turf at ALL because they were just too good at defending/preventing us from capturing it. Needless to say, we lost the match. Match is over and I'm expecting the other party to leave matchmaking, but they didn't. So I figured, REMATCH time bitches! The selected map: Airstrip. We beat them 3-0. We did not let them win a single objective. Those two matches were truly one of the best, most intense Team Objective matches I've had in a very long time. I get sent a message from one of the guys in the other team and I figured it'd be trash talk, but to my surprise it said, "Great games, man" and that shit brought a smile to my face. Guy was a good sport about it and I thanked him for providing me with one of the most intense matches I've had. Good sportsmanship FTW.

Even with its faults, that right there is one of the reasons the multi in this game kicks so much ass.

If I was playing with you guys, you would have won the first game also causing them to back out in matchmaking after.

Just kidding I'm not stupid enough to buy the outrageously priced (not to mention 66% recycled) DLC maps.

I didn't want to be a dick.

I hope there is a way to BUY the guns though. By buy I don't mean like DLC, but purchase them with U3 dollars. Like, Talbots Fal-SS for a million or something like that.

I will never get the hardcore treasures, I will never get co-op hunter treasures, and I will never get the co-op skins.

Too much grinding. I hate grinding, especially if it is playing something I despise.

Ok, so....

Tournament Mode: Each game you play with a tourney point gets you points towards a global score in the end. If someone purchases 250 tickets and plays all 250 within a week, they will be at the top for sure? How can someone with 10 points compete with someone who has 250?

Have to say I am a bit peeved that you can just buy pretty much everything (Like Skelzor skin) on the cheap when I spent hours and hours earning it =/ devalues my efforts.

You have to get so many points a week, not rank globally i believe, watch the Tournament video. For example 20,000+ point in a week is gold tier and you get special items to use for the whole of the next week.
 
Please mother of god someone tell me they didn't forget about the aim assist shit they talked about.

PLEASE let that just be a negligible feature they didn't expound on....

Ohh, ok. I thought it was like top 10% of people or something get gold tier. Hopefully getting to gold tier with 10 tickets should be enough.

If you are quite a good player I should imagine it is. but I reackon scores are calculated in such a way that a lot of people will be encouraged to buy tickets to get to gold. If you get gold tier for 6 weeks then you permanently unlock the Dijin Skeleton skin, that looks very cool.

I now have 2 of all the rare treasures in Hardcore, except not 1 Emerald Chimera -_-

Well, guess I won't be going legacy for 6 weeks, haha.

Need my 75x3 character to make sure I get gold in all 6 weeks. I think my K/D is like 1.7 or something like that. Hopefully thats enough.

I haven't even played the newer maps yet. Now I wish I didn't drop this game so early. The only real shame is how long it took for these fixes and additions to come.

I'm gonna striaght up work through the legacy, get it done and out the way, then time can be more effectively used on treasures, weapons, leveling up boosters.

Gonna be a great time to jump back on, DLC maps are cool. Assembling
 
The first thing I do when I boot up the patch is hop online and see if the aim assist was reduced. If not I will go into a rage that will not be pretty.

You can be a dick to me. I want to read what you said.

Anyways, patch sounds great and all but... the treasure "fix" was just being able to buy them on the PS store? They better be less than 25 cents each. 10 cents would be nice.

I hope they cost like $3 for the rarer stuff. and i hope it just gives you the item, rather than giving you the treasures. You should have to earn treasures to complete sets like normal.

My original post was along the lines of

"No offense dude, but 100 hours is a MASSIVE waste of time. I can't imagine playing over 100 hours of something I hated, just to get some stupid fucking gun."

It was something along those lines. I sounded like a dick and really shouldn't be criticizing how people spend their time.

Nice details to the patch.

But there was no mention of the strong aim assists in these weapons. :(

New taunts look incredible, and I think in the video they said they fixed the Marked Man glitch in Team Objective!

As far as the customization goes, I'm so bummed that we can't even combine two items. Why do the new customization items have "perks" attached to them? Can someone explain that? Figured it out.

I think the aim assist is fixed because I could've sworn it felt better. I also picked up a sniper during a match and the enemy was up close and I swore it didn't really slow down.

Holy shit this patch feels like a brand new freaking game. I feel like the game came out today. This gonna hold me over until Halo 4, PASBR and whatever.

You should test it with the Dragon Sniper and aim at a target that's moving/sprinting. That's where you'll notice it the most. The cursor will move too slow that it's impossible for your reticule to catch up to them. Or try the G-MAL with accuracy.
 
I legacy'd so I have to reunlock them.

Also I can't wait to unlock all these skins they really added a BUNCH of new stuff to the heroes.

I'm still a little bummed out that the colors are the same for existing clothes but w/e at least I can wear baseball cap with redshirt drake.

Scratch that. They didn't fix the aim assist.
I just went into a custom game with a friend and the reticule still slowed down with the tbolt, gmal and pistol. I'm really bummed out.

Adding to that, in response to this question:

Is there also a reason why the Aim Assist fixes weren't mentioned in the notes?

Ha. Keep pushing...they didn't happen this patch.

It was something along those lines. I sounded like a dick and really shouldn't be criticizing how people spend their time.

I didn't hate it (in fact I had tons of fun, the guns were merely a side achievement), I just got bored. Every game started to feel like deja vu. Now I hate it, which is why I don't play it anymore.

To put this into perspective, this was over the course of nearly 3 months. 4 days of playtime isn't much at all. I have 13 days total put into this game. Rewrite has more than 3x that. So what?

You have played this game for more than 100 hours. Was it a MASSIVE waste of time?
 

Mikey Jr.

Member
If that 100 hours was on co-op hunter, my most hated mode, so that I could get a monocle for Drake, then yeah, I would consider it a waste of time.

Thats why I edited it anyways. Maybe you liked Hardcore.

Reading the ND forums, people are reporting that Spyder's M9 is available at level 1 and you can use any mods on it. So this means level 1 people can use ROF.

Fuck ROF.

NERF that shit to oblivion.

Played a couple of hours and its nice to level up again, picked up a lot of treasure but no new ones. So many noobs on now, they make for bad team mates -_- and I have like 4-6 more Hardcore treasures to get now aswell. All the new treasure was added to the competitive game types and Elimination now has its own treasures rather than getting Team Deathmatch treasures.

I also personally dislike the added recoil to GMAL, it was necessary, but I still dislike it =P

Well they were aimming for next week, but I guess it passed QA with less issues than expected. The tournament wont start till 14th anyway when the DLC is up and people can buy more tickets.
