I'm with you on TLoU, I have some nitpicks, but nothing that could be considered a negative.
If that game is anything to go by, U4 will probably be the same way.

Is there a set-piece that rivals/tops the cruise ship and airplane from Uncharted 3?

This beats all the other naughty dog games prior for me. It's the best playing, most varied, most beautiful game they have ever made. To me this is the new standard as classic or masterpiece of a game this gen goes as far as a total package.
These are my favorite actally but I think we're getting into really just what people will preference more regardless of quality.

Dude, you're begging for an avatar quote each time you talk about Uncharted 4.
If you have the money? It's only an extra £20 at the end of the day. Depends how badly you want it, and how much a week early is worth to you.

I'm pretty sure the first few hours will be a bore on multiple playthroughs. That said you can skip them. It's TLOU like in that regard.
Platforming is identical, nothing has changed there. Hand to hand combat is visually some of the most impressive moments but from a gameplay perspective it's a really basic combat system, pretty much the same as U3. Hell I think U3 allowed for more defensive options.
Happy.

I have the impression that it is a very good game. I hope that's not too spoileriffic.
Was so close to buying this like half an hour ago. Was literally typing in my card details but decided against it.
No hard feelings if you get it though

I can spare the money yeah. Man, I just can't even. Too excited. Want to know he's legit. EDIT if it's illegal, what would happen?

Looks amazing, can't wait...another two months :/
From what I gathered about the 'negatives', if any, is a slow start and an underwhelming boss fight (gameplay wise) and not amazing villains?
But that's just me skim reading -- you can just wait for reviews or play the game when it comes out of it's too hyped atm.

Well climbing is but the grapple add with the climbing and the other later ability mixes it up a bit. Also did Nate always just grab nearby ledges withing hitting the jump button? Cause now you can hold the stick put to aim your hand/arm and if a ledge is there he automatically pulls himself up.

Does this game have anything to do with tlou?

Yeah I expected this thread to blow up immediately LOL!
I hope to those that have the game and are playing it right now, that they enjoy it!
No. It's a different IP and universe. Made by a lot of the same teams though.
I agree on the hit detection, but the gun sounds was pumped up more than the other games.

Hit detection was fine in uncharted 3. It's the hit reactions that were lacking.

Beverley lacking. It's my only major criticism. Enemies simple don't react to gunshots.
Fancy Clown

They do, but not every shot like in Uncharted 2. It was a baffeling step back though
Glad they fixed that for UC4.

I opened and dusted my ps4 this past weekend. I was going jet engine in ratchet. After that it's been nice and normal, no jet yet with U4. So I recommend it, watch one of the many videos on YouTube.
I think it is just going back to the game after so long and the reticule is just not as good as UC2/4 beta. And the hit reaction are an issue as I have a hard time knowing if I hit someone other than a headshot.

Preorder cancelled. I am now predicting an 8 from eurogamer.
Another question, On a scale of 1-10 with 1 being Witcher 3 foliage and 10 being Star Wars Battlefront Endor level foliage, how good is the foliage in Uncharted 4?

Yeah, that's one thing that got worse as the series progressed. Minutes the bullet dodging , I really enjoyed the enemy reactions to getting shot in DF
You'll be fine.

The best thing I can say a out the mechanics so far is that it's pretty much the MP mechanics in SP. 30FPS aside, it's translated incredibly well and actually work better given that enemies react when getting shot at.
Is there still that satisfying 'thwip' noise when bullets connect?

Beautiful. I can tell if PS4 Neo runs this in 60fps it'll be a sight to behold.

Thanks, IGN.
Thank god for this. Was worried that they would over animate the player character in SP, losing some of that responsiveness.
Just to make sure, no aiming isuues in terms of input lag or deadzones? The beta was good. so hopefully this is the same.

Doesnt sound like it. Or maybe I'm just not picking it up. There's been a lot going on in the gunfights so far for me to pin it down.
Animation: Theres definitely the typical SP animation upgrades you should expect and they do affect how long it takes or Drake to do something. However, for the actual gunfights, it's to a minimum. Example would be that there are just a plethora of contextual animations and climbing animations that aren't in MP but are in SP. But gunplay feels largely the same and is incredibly responsive.
Aiming: None that I can notice. The default aiming options are actually petfect for me sensitivity wise. Think it must've been tweaked cause I had to mess around with it for the beta.
Damn, I loved that about the beta.

Very carefully skimming this thread. I know, it's impressions, not spoilers. But there still is freshness in finding out how a game makes you feel, too, which is why I now stand on tiptoes.
Whatever the case, thanks a bunch to all folks willing to lend early impressions and commit to a spoiler-free write-up or two of it, I'm sure it's well-appreciated by most of us here. My only question is: is it better than Ocarina of Time? (J/k.) Jokes aside, sounding like a hell of a time, so far, and glad to hear it.

How is the destruction in the game?
I believe they said there will be a lot more destructible objects in the game than before.

I'll add my impressions to the mix in the next 6 hours. Off work in two then playing for the next four hours straight; -)
