Uncharted 4: A Thief's End |OT| You're gonna miss this ass

Ah conflicted! Haha, I may play 4 - and the pop in 2 and 3 and pretend they are prequels
Think about 4 as the one that does the best fan service in a series that ends with it. If you're invested in the characters and events they went through then U4 will be even better.

There were just a shocking amount of times when the game was in a cutscene and then transitioned to gameplay and my mind started expecting a loading screen or something to pop up because HOW THE HELL DOES THIS GAME LOOK SO GOOD?

Man, I'd really advise against that. UC4 works even better once you've played 2 and 3, not the other way around.
Your call but it's just my suggestion
OK thanks, I need to play 2 and 3 first then!

You're in for one hell of a ride then. 2 and 3 are amazing games and 4 is just phenomenal. Certainly one of the most consistently good series out there.

I picked my copy up at lunch and it's the worst thing sitting here in my cube staring at the disk, knowing damn well I still need to finish my replay of three before I can strip the plastic off this baby and turn her on.. It's going to be a long wait...

5.something GB patch. That's patch 1.01 and 1.02 though 1.02 was just a 160-180 MB download.

Holy shit, my PS4's fan sounds like it's getting ready for take off. Fuck, I hope it doesn't blow up.
It's so on-rails and cutscene heavy so far, I don't think I'll ever be able to replay it. It's a common theme in Straley's games.
Uncharted 2, I always skip past the shitty stealth chapter with Flynn and the train stuff that has you moving at a snail's pace for half an hour.
The Last of Us - the first hour is one big unskippable cutscene that pretends walking is actual gameplay.
This time, I'm on chapter 6, and I've barely done anything but basic climbing, shimmying and moving forward. Good storytelling so far, but it's not much of a game.
Ugh.

The hand to hand combat(well the forced 1 on 1) moments are rare in the game. Hand to hand combat in the middle of a gunfight is beautiful. Lots of animations and smooth transitions. The 1 on 1 fights are very rare so the hand to hand combat complaint is imo null as you won't even be doing that throughout the majority of the game.
I love this game already and I'm only on chapter 5.
I spent way too much time in chapter 4
I have forgotten how good the writing between Elena and Nathan is in these games.

I think I went into every room in Nate's house before I met up with Elena, the detail alone (like the soft hum of the washer and vibration) and then the amazing Easter egg in that scene as well

For those who ordered on amazon, did you all receive one "Benefit Confirmation" code for this purchase? I only got one email from them with a pre order code my game is out for delivery coming from an amazon carrier

I got one email and when I redeemed the one code it gave me like 5-6 things.
I can't deny how beautiful the graphics are on this game, but at the same time I feel like I've already felt this kind of awe whilst playing Rise of the Tomb Raider last year. They're both as pretty as each other.
Edit: the foliage in Uncharted is rather lovely, I'll give it that.

Neither is you saying it's bad making it bad.
Turns out everyone just gives their feelings on the topic. We all learned a valuable lesson here today.

Awesome thanks for confirming just wanted to be sure I had received everything since a while back I pre ordered a game from amazon and never received any pre order bonuses..this email was called the "Benefit Confirmation" email with 1 code in it
The small details in U4 go far beyond anything ROTT does. So far from what I've seen, anyway.
Not at all, I planned on taking some to post in the thread.

That sucks. Do you have it on wired or wireless? Switching it to wired pretty solves most of my downloading issues on the ps4.
Wireless, have tried wired many times though and hasn't changed the speeds at all. I've just come to accept the low speed of my ps4.
I think I read somewhere something about purposely capped psn speeds in certain areas.

I didn't mind the soundtrack much. I have posted a few times about it already in this thread.

That's cool.
Personally I'm not a fan of it, compared to previous games at least, but it's still a decent soundtrack.
Soundtrack is more than adequate. If anything something was weird with the mixing and it was too quiet.

Transition from cut scene to game still gets me, like am l control of this thing now. Yes you're no longer in a cut scene this is the game now ! Definately a first for a game on ps4 at least, any developer that still put campaigns into game should copy this.
Yeah I can see that, its not very Unchartedy going by the previous games. Not grand or epic like some of the tracks from the other games. But it fits the mood well enough I think.
I am going to get it anyway to complete my collection
