Bring back standing on one leg in Uncharted 4.

That is the reason why they changed the gunplay, but it's not the reason it does feel better. For gun sounds are much louder/meatier, the visual kickback fmwhen firing is more pronounced and the way enemies react to being hit is several magnitudes better. If they simply cut and pasted UC's gunplay into TLOU it would have been a terrible game from a gameplay perspective.

From the E3 footage, the gunplay is still not as visceral as TLOU, it looks to be a vast improvement over the peashooters in the trilogy nonetheless. I think the game's tone is preventing them from making it any more realistic than it currently is.

Man, having the stealth & improved gunplay from TLOU combined with the verticality & agility from UC is going to make UC4 the best straight up TPS ever.

 

[PROJECTZERO]

Finished UF and loved every minute of it. Was alot better than I remember it being. BP games have done a fantastic job. Now playing U2, now on my way to the

Spoiler

train

Loving every minute of this. Naughty Dog are so good.

 

[neojubei]

Did anyone get two promotional codes from amazon?

 

[Chaserjoey]

Man I do not like getting the disc out from the Steelbook. Feels like the disc is going to snap in half.

 

[Servbot24]

Boy, this is kinda hard to play after nothing but MGSV and Bloodborne all year.

 

[Revven]

Boy, this is kinda hard to play after nothing but MGSV and Bloodborne all year.

Coming from V I agree, haha. I keep thinking circle is to reload or R2 is CQC etc etc. Getting more used to it again, though.

On Chapter 8 now in UC1... approaching the first dreaded jetski section. Even though I know what to do, it is still a drag. Good thing ND learned from it in the first game and it isn't something that's present in 2 or 3...

 

[User1608]

UC1 is still a blast and it's even better now! 60 FPS makes a huuuuge difference, and still looks nice too.

 

[Shin-Ra]

The jetski stuff's a piece of piss even on Crushing. You just have to gently expose yourself to only one or two enemies at a time so they can't overwhelm you. There is cover, just less control over movement. Shooting long range with the pistol's really easy with the resolution and framerate upgrade too.

And auto target the barrels.

 

[Blitzrules240]

I've failed some of the platforming early on into UC1 but I'm loving it. This reminds me of a classic 90s adventure platformed. Also Nolan North is top notch, his voice work is slaying me.

That's the hope God I am so F'ing hyped for Uncharted 4.

 

[MegaSackman]

Damn!!! I'd the Watch Dogs audio mode (for Metal Gear) on my Gold headset and I just downloaded the audio mode for Uncharted Collection, I was starting to wonder if these things are a real thing... holy shit!! the difference is substantial!!

 

[Ghost Slayer]

Just finished U1. Oh boy, I fall in love with Uncharted music, dat ending theme. Ready for U2

 

[Zebra]

I'm excited for those playing for the first time.

I wish I could say I'm excited. First time playing, 50% through UC1 and the combat is just not fun. And there is wayy too much of it.

I can see the appeal though and I know UC2 should be better. So, I'm just trying to plow through UC1.

 

[psychotron]

I just bought a new Sony receiver and I'm pretty sure I have it set correctly, but some things seem a tiny bit off. Do the guns in Uncharted 1 seem a bit low in the mix? I notice I get a sharper/louder sound when reloading than I do when firing a gun. The music is loud, the dialogue seems clear, the surround sound seems balanced....its just odd. I have it set for AFD mode which is supposed to reproduce whatever is being fed to the receiver. All other processing is turned off.

 

[boredandlazy]

I still use The Infamous Second Son present for everything. Haven't bothered with anything else since it sounds awesome.

 

[hamchan]

this is why uncharted 1 crushing was the hardest

Funnily enough I didn't die once during the jet ski part on my crushing run through this time. All you have to do is go slowly, take out the barrels and enemies one at a time instead of dealing with them all at once. Turns out to be a very simple affair.

 

[brickarts295]

So can we redeem the Beta code now, or do we gotta wait until it releases?

 

[Darrenf]

Loving U2. I got the plat on PS3 & I'm going to go for it on PS4. Crushing is easier than I remembered.

 

[robotrock]

drake's fortune's pacing is still awful

at least controlling drake feels better

 

[Revven]

Gotta wait until it comes out.

 

[LightofRohan]

I'm curious to see people's impressions of it that never played an Uncharted game before!

Also good to hear U1 is good! They must have done some nice stuff to it, because even though I do love it, it is really poor at times (I replayed it a year ago). Can't wait to start this!

 

[MattyG]

I just played through Drake's Fortune on Normal thinking it was Crushing. It crashed during the intro and apparently when I hit "continue" with the corrupted data file it reverted to Normal. I thought it felt easier than it should. Shiiiiiiiit, I'm so pissed. UC1 is my least favorite and I don't want to play it again but I want that plat.

 

[gundamkyoukai]

God i forgot how boring UC1 is comapre to UC2 and 3.
Really show how much of a huge advancement UC2 was .
From set pieces , to shooting , movement , cover system basically everything .

 

[KyleCross]

I am pissed. Apparently my preorder of the collection on BestBuy.com didn't go through, but my Uncharted 4 preorder did strangely. I show up at the store today and they can't find the order, I check my account myself and yep, not there. Long story short the BB employee talked to someone on the phone for 20 minutes only to say there's nothing they can do about the pre-order DLC, and I had to just buy the game at the store.

I'm quite pissed off. But I guess I'm only missing out on what, some basic outfits for Drake and golden guns?

 

[Grisby]

Digging into UC2. 60 FPS uncharted makes the cutscenes and animation all the more cartoony. I've always liked the art style of the series though so it's cool.

 

[Eel O'Brian]

Ha-ha, replaying the first game is making me remember how hesitant I was to buy UC2 when it came out.

 

[Revven]

I'm quite pissed off. But I guess I'm only missing out on what, some basic outfits for Drake and golden guns?

You're just missing out on early unlocks, it doesn't really matter. You'll unlock them as you play the game.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

The first Uncharted has too many enemies per encounter. The pacing has always felt off to me. Uncharted 2 is waaaaay better in this regard.

 

[doctorblurg]

I like UC1 for the environments and story but good god some of these encounters are the most infuriating things, I'm playing on hard but once you get past the upriver jetski section almost all of the encounters feel incredibly unfair. I have no clue how people beat this thing on the crushing difficulty setting this is making me want to pull my hair out. This final boss isn't much fun either I hope I beat it soon.

 

[Blitzrules240]

Wow, now I see the complaints about UC1. These shooting galleries are full of bullet sponges. I'm struggling lol...on Normal.

 

[antitrop]

Wow, now I see the complaints about UC1. These shooting galleries are full of bullet sponges. I'm struggling lol...on Normal.

As if that wasn't bad enough, enemies at the end of the game have body armor and helmets, lol.

 

[Revven]

Wow, now I see the complaints about UC1. These shooting galleries are full of bullet sponges. I'm struggling lol...on Normal.

There's only one enemy type that's really a bullet sponge and it's the much fatter/larger looking guys (seriously they don't die from a Wes-44 in one hit, it takes two unlike the rest of the enemies). The rest have all the same HP, are you using the AK a lot? I'd recommend using the pistol more than the AK as the pistol does more damage and you'll land headshots more easily (seriously, go for headshots!)

 

[Loudninja]

Wow, now I see the complaints about UC1. These shooting galleries are full of bullet sponges. I'm struggling lol...on Normal.

Eh people still talking about bullet sponges?

 

[KyleCross]

You're just missing out on early unlocks, it doesn't really matter. You'll unlock them as you play the game.

Oh, so they weren't taken out of the Cheat menu for the preorders, you still unlock them like in the original games? Cool.

 

[xxracerxx]

Headshots boo!

 

[Loudninja]

Yeah ,but you can have my preorder code of you want I dont need it.

Sent you a PM.

 

[SeriousApes]

Man, it feels good to play this again. I played an hour or so of Drake's Fortune and it brings me back to the first time I played it. Probably one of my most replayed games back in the day. I died a few times during the first wide-open arena shootout on the island, though, haha. Feels better to play with the DS4 for sure.

 

[Loudninja]

Yeah, at this point I dont get it.

 

[Reebot]

Heeeeeyyyyy! Non-Drake skins actually get wet now from when you swim or when you touch water. Nice!

(I unlocked Navarro just now in UC1 so that's how I know lol)

Confirmed best remaster, thank you based Bluepoint.

Seriously that's pretty cool.

 

[Lord Error]

I'm not sure what the bullet sponge comments are about either. All the normal enemies go down with three pistol bullets or one headshot.

Wow, now I see the complaints about UC1. These shooting galleries are full of bullet sponges. I'm struggling lol...on Normal.

Heh, I guess I'm the veteran of the series, but for me UC1 is sooo easy playing it on hard in this collection. Improved aiming acceleration and control responsiveness makes it so that I almost never miss. I'm breezing through the game.

 

[NateGrigs]

Check the audio output option in the game. Make sure its set to the right # of channels and maybe turn down the dynamic range.

 

[Revven]

I'm not sure what the bullet sponge comments are about either. All the normal enemies go down with three pistol bullets or one headshot.

Yeah... only way I can think you could feel that way is if you're using any automatic weapons like the AK, M4, or Micro in UC1. And if you're not burst firing with those weapons most of the time you're using them incorrectly.

No reason to not use the pistol over everything unless you literally are low or out of ammo or you flat out have a better weapon for the situation (like a power weapon).

 

[watdaeff4]

Somewhat off-topic:

Did anyone else pre-order this digitally through PSN? If so, how long does it take to receive your 10% off discount code?

Just wondering, I pre-ordered this week and was going to try to use it by the end of the month in conjunction with teh spend $100/get $15 promotion

 

[Brandon F]

Reached Chapter 6 in UC1 on Crushing tonight, already over 250 kill count. Seems about right...

 

[Trouble]

One down, two to go.

I had forgotten how ridiculously dumb and bad the final boss fight sequence in UC is.

 

[nib95]

Got a fair bit in to UDF. As charming and adventurous as ever. Graphically it holds up surprisingly well. Some of the textures are great. Only negative so far really is that I'm finding it a bit easy even on Hard. Maybe I should have attempted Crushing straight away. The amusing thing is that most of my deaths have been from platforming segments. Feel like they've tweaked things a touch to be less automated, unless I'm imaging a difference where there isn't one.

Side note, I think I got a 'follow the leader' Trophy for leading one of the stats compared to those on my friends list. I think it was for getting 12 headshots in a row. Cool that it keeps all these stats.

 

[Blitzrules240]

Made it to Chapter 7 in UC1. I'm enjoying myself but I've got lost or failed a platforming section, so it's getting better with time.

 

[Ghost Slayer]

Holy shit, the massive jump from U1 to U2 is real. Shooting is much much better now
