I think the stone cave map (I forgot the name) with all the narrow lanes is easily the worst map in the game.
Not really sure how I feel about River yet, but it wasn't terrible.

Did they nerf AK? I'm pumping like 5 shots into people, and they kill me easily with the Mettler in that same timeframe without getting killed themselves.
No, you can unlock all the skins, characters etc in the game via vanity chests which you can buy with relic points which you get from completing challenges and winning matches. Same goes for hero weapon chests and booster chests (which are only purchasable with relic points and can't be bought with Uncharted coins).
You can get them through Vanity Chests, but it's random. You can open Vanity Chests with relics you get by winning a match; and by also completing daily challenges.
Sometimes you get lucky, last night in back to back chests I got the two things I wanted the most, Suited Drake and Eddy Raja. Or the other night I got nothing of interest.
If you want to buy it directly that's what Uncharted Coins are for.
What do you mean? Are you playing it remotely through your PC?
I've been thinking about playing the campaign on my Vita but think I'd enjoy it more on my big TV where u have proper L2/R2 buttons.

How many maps are there in the MP? I've been playing the exact 3 maps over and over since I started. Are some maps locked to certain modes?

I think its 8 maps. Are you on Warm-up TDM? I noticed it was mostly the same few maps until I started playing in the regular playlist.

RIght as I posted that I ended up being put into a new map. Go figure.
L2+R1 gives you a straighter throw. They cover it in the trials. Hold L2 and let go, you'll see the path change from curved to straight. Works with anything thrown to varying degrees.

No I am playing it on my 1000 PlayStation Vita OLED Screen. I just recently brought the L2/R2 trigger adapter for my Vita and just going to a Starbucks and remoting in to my PS4 and just killing it online vs other players has been amazing. I'm almost as good as playing with my PS4 controller on my 4K TV. I would play the campaign on my TV if I was you and play multiplayer on the Vita if your in an area with decent internet speeds. The Vita doesn't give the campaign any justice like an HDTV does.
Ah okay, I have one of those trigger adapters. I thought you'd found some way to use a Dualshock with it. I don't know that SP or MP would be great due to lag on MP and due to it being 60 FPS. Depends on connection speed I guess.

Just had the most amazing match ever, I should probably just quit playing now lol.
It was my last of the 5 pre-ranking matches in Ranked Team Deathmatch, and I had won all 4 up to that point, so I was hoping I could win the fifth one.
Well, three minutes in to the match we were down 4 to 15, and it just got worse, until we were down 17 to 32. But then we went on a roll. Our team stuck together the rest of the match, no mics or anything, and proceeded to make an epic comeback and win 40-39!! It was so tense, everyone was reviving each other, teaming up on a single person to bring them down, it was so good. I'll probably never have another match as good as that one haha.
On another note, does anyone else kinda miss the leveling system from previous games? I dunno, I feel like it gave me something concrete to work towards, whereas now you just unlock stuff.

Yea, I Live in KC, so its Google fiber mecca out here. 1k mbp speeds here are amazing.
I'd agree with this. Everyone just sticks to the outside because the caves have so little alternate paths and almost no vertical paths. It is a shockingly flat map.

Absolutely. Even if the number doesn't mean anything it would be still nice to show what rank you are.

Got the same challenge as yesterday.... so do challenges stay up for 3 days then? Like if I take a break and come back tomorrow night will this one still be up for me to complete?

It's beyond ridiculous,there is nothing you can so unless you are doing the same exact thing back.

it reminds me of gears but not as fun or complex (lack of wall bouncing/cancelling, auto weapons instead of gnasher)
cover is still surprisingly useful against sprayers though if you can distance yourself

Anyone notice that if you're down by a lot, the treasures you find are wort $400 instead of $200??
I agree. On quite a few weapons, it feels a little too easy to do. The Uzi pretty much is a spray and pray machine, with surprisingly good ADS accuracy. I think the clip size for it needs to be reduced

where is this UZI you're talking about, i'd love that

Second pistol unlock I think.
XCR in particular is ridiculous. I tried to fight a guy aiming and would get my ass handed to me every time.
It is like gears of war with auto aim which is crazy.

This auto-aim run and gun stuff was such a huge bane in UC3. I wish they'd just find a better way to deal with it.
It shouldnt have such solid aim assist, and most guns shouldn't be so accurate, unless maybe they use the attachment/mod.
I feel like even in cover, the blindfire is accurate from a pretty far distance.

Just started the Trials and I'm not sure if its me but something seems off?
Is this slower than the beta? Not as smooth?
edit: The slower pace seems to be even more so when climbing over ledges, the pathways etc I think?
edit: Also why do enemies glow red when I'm about to charged melee hit them?

I use the HS39(? The assault rifle that unlocks before the M14) with a blind fire mod. I am consistently amazed at some of the kills that thing can pull off. If you come across a group of two people and just hold the shoot button while strafing you will likely kill both of them (unless they are doing the same thing). Also, while in cover the blind fire from close range seems even more effective than aiming because you can move your reticule more effectively.
It's fun. But it definitely is the way most people are playing right now, and it's clearly overpowered. So I wouldn't be opposed to a nerf.

ugh I keep forgetting that there's an auto aim option in this game, they really need to turn it off entirely
Behind cover it's crazy good, I've abused it a lot myself to get out of sticky situations -- especially versus Brutes. Brutes are very susceptible to it sometimes as depending on where the cover is placed the AI can get "stuck" and then they're just food for your blindfire behind cover.
Hipfire seems almost as dumb as Uncharted 3 at launch. Almost. It's only not as dumb because melee doesn't do as much damage as it did in UC3. But it should definitely get adjusted. It should only be as accurate as it is right now with the mod, without it it should be much worse.
There's no auto aim in MP unless you're talking about Aim Assist which is entirely different and depending on person-to-person can either be good or bad. ND seems to think aim assist is necessary as it was always there in 2 and 3 MP but nobody could turn it off or decrease it like we can now.

Thanks.
I wouldn't mind an option to turn this off. It wasn't there in the Beta and it was a good skill to learn as you had to judge the range. Who the fuck wants to see glowing shit?
Psychoward
Banned
yeah I just turn it off entirely because I think the ds4 is good enough to free aim with, wish ND thought the same
I would agree on everything but the MP34A which is just egregious in its automatic lock on the enemy.
Best gun is still the Para .45 though.

This multiplayer is such a disappointment after the gem that was TLoU.
Crazy how the sniper in this game is actually worse than the one in TLoU even though the latter is a far slower game.

Exactly. The Last of Us didn't have free jumping, rolling, or blind/hipfire, and if I recall, the sniper wasn't as expensive as some of the other primaries in that game. I used it quite a bit.
Trying to do the same in Uncharted, but there are just so many problems.

Wait....players can have auto aim on in multiplayer? Do they at least force players into auto aim sessions?
use the m14 (after you grind your way to unlocking it)
No, it's just aim assist.
Tell me about it, I just went 20/20 and my team still lost, all I want are 10 more relics for another stupid vanity chest, but nope...
Me2, let's team up some time.
I am winning more consistently now mostly because I have taken to cheese.
It is endlessly frustrating the losing side gets nothing. They really gotta give people something for at least participating.
Mad respect to my fellow snipers, because right now, that rifle is absolutely shit.
Yup, it seriously has to move to 25 for a win 10 for a loss soon. I can see many people getting pissed and feel like they're gaining nothing with the way it currently is.
Edit: Challenges are great the way they are right now, but it sucks for anyone who plays solo and gets stuck with crap teams all the time. Especially if they're stuck with an annoying challenge for the day.
