edit: I am sure a headshot would have taken the guy down in one.

Yeah, because I clearly said that or strongly suggested that critics shouldn't be in this thread...
If you're going to call the game unimpressive in this thread, you better back it up with legitimate reasons why you feel that it's not. Fortunately, there haven't been many drive by posts, but the explanations to how UC4 is unimpressive have been either poor or borderline troll-like (from at least one poster here).

There is nothing defensive about what I said, Saying the chase in HL2 is as impressive is well, silly to put it mildly, there is a night and day difference, but feel free to not discuss with me further.
Mario Maker, Horizon, and Unravel were my favs personally. Loved the creativity in those for different reasons.

Unimpressive is the biggest scapegoat word in gaming when used out of context. Like the majority of those who use it.

We have come a long way since the early PS3 days.... :3
Oh but the new consoles are only a small leap with diminishing returns some would have you try and think.

GTFO now with that narrative with what we have seen this E3

Fuck.
If there are ways to avoid most gun fights, and now that platforming looks more fun with added verticality, this may be another Uncharted I enjoy playing (and ogling)
No video but impressions from IGN on the second part of the demo:
Where the Press Conference ended with Drake grappling onto a truck and preparing himself for an impact with scaffolding, the demo I saw kept going. Nate crashed through the wood, and continued to be dragged through the water underneath him. He climbed up the rope just in time to begun being dragged through a stretch of mud. The attention to detail as Drake got increasingly messy as tried to regain control was incredible.
After pulling out his pistol and taking out a handful of enemies flanking him on motorcycles, Drake eventually clamored his way onto the back of the truck. He hopped to various vehicles that were all partaking in the chase, eventually tossing out the driver of one and commandeering the vehicle for himself. He eventually caught up with his target, who turned out to be his brother Sam, played by Troy Baker. Though the circumstances werent revealed during the demo, Sam was being chased by a whole mess of guys intent on killing him all sorts of dead.
Of course, the second Drake finally caught up with his brother, a truck t-boned his vehicle. When Nate finally came to, he pinned underneath his up-turned truck. As gasoline puddled around him, small fires started to grow. Nathan had to drag himself out of the wreckage, and was about to be killed by one of his pursuers before Sam showed up and saved the day. You hopped on the back his bike and sped off, only to be chased once again by the armored vehicle from the E3 demo, which at this point was pretty much a Terminator on wheels.
The camera swung around to the front of the bike, and as Sam sped away from the truck and wove in and out of obstacles, Nate tried taking out the vehicles with his guns. The scene eventually made its way to a shipping yard, and Sam finally outwitted the Terminator by sliding the bike underneath a massive cargo container and tricking the truck into running into it head-on.
Sam and Nathan rode off into the sunset as innocent dock workers looked on in sheer horror at the carnage that befell their usually-calm job. But that wasnt the end of the demo.
The scene shifted to later on that night, as the pair rolled into the Ikopa Motel and met up with Sully. The three surveyed a map and cypher, remarking about how theyve finally discovered the location of Libertalia. Libertalia was a mythical pirate colony located somewhere off the coast of Madagascar, and was as supposed haven for thousands of pirates. The key here is that they stored all of their loot in one common location, which is what the thieves have their eyes on. As Sully remarked, So where is this commie pirate sanctuary?

They have been upfront about not wanting to repeat UC3 and spoil all of the key moments. The couple of seconds of extra footage you've seen came from a less than 30 second trailer that they also released yesterday.

yeah but reactions are quite generic, he doesnt react depending where goes the bullet and he barely moves his feet or body backwards.One shoot sould be enough to change his animation afterwards, he should look for cover to avoid being shot again or shoot back with an injured animation not like nothing had happened.Blood would help also to the shooting feed back.

Gameplay trailer was awesome, never played the 1st two (and still have the last of us to finish on PS4), but looking forward to this.

Looking at Nate's clothing, I'm thinking this level leads directly into the PSX demo (or a level close to it). I also think it happens early on in the game.
I am not sure how he would have time to find cover after being staggered by the first shot then the other shots following a one second later.
edit: Wait, are you talking about Drake or the enemy?
Think some of those dudes carry body armor. (market sequence)

Depends on the power of a handgun used, and this game is about over the ton campy fun.
This is not ARMA or a military simulator.
Oh and there is that (the game is a year away almost) thing going for it.
Still can't get over the guy who was snuffed by Drake's fisticuffs and rolling on the ground in a whimsical daze.

well, a normal reaction if there is no cover to protect would be to throw down to the ground.The thing is this game is so astounding in all departments that the shooting mechanics shortcomings stand out more with each new entry.
Well Richard is no spring chicken himself:
Dude...he was shot from the side, staggered and was shot 3 more times. I have no idea how you think his reaction time could foresee being shot from the side, since he believed Drake was still near Sully.
Also, videogames.

i want it to improve.Arma has the ballistics but not the shooting feedback that is what would make this game much more enjoyable as 75% of it is shooting, and the main gameplay criticism is made.See for example The Division reveal,not the last one, video.There they nailed it.
Hmm I actually think it's that his face looks skinny (check out his cheeks) makes him look tired, maybe sick even more than old to me.
I dream of an Uncharted game that's like 10% gun fights, 50% platforming through crazy scenarios and 40% puzzle solving (involving fun platforming)

I think they're pushing it even by Teen rating standards. There's a limit how much nuances you can place before the rating may escalate. Uncharted has always been that pulp style action but to the extreme end like TLOU. This also explains why the bullets don't have that solid "pop" when being shot.

Oh, now I realise why Sully looks so different. It's the shape of his eyebrows. They're not pointy enough, lol.

Hello, my name is Yves Guillemot, Vivendi S.A.'s Employee of the Month!
That's actually a perfect example of diminishing returns, especially if you to say compare these with the character models from UC3. Diminishing returns is a real thing, but most people ignorantly think that the mention of it means "graphics aren't getting better in any meaningful way." Obviously they are, doesn't mean that the concept doesn't exist though.
Wow man lmao. It's so similar. Weird.

That Drake looks 'shopped.

It hasn't hit the point of diminishing returns really. Sure the transformational difference is less, but the difference is still significant.
Yeah, think it is.
But even in normal screens I keep thinking Jeff Cannata when I see Drake.

It looks like he does though, When Drake shoots the NPC on the side on the right waist area, the NPC turns towards the right and takes a few steps back. When you see Drake shooting at the shoulder area, you see the NPC collapsing in the same general direction. This is within a few seconds.
Not even sure what you're looking at...
The NPC barely has any time to react to the shots. This clip shows the opposite of what you're saying. It's incredibly responsive to the shots.

Yeah, he's reaching and doubling down with his posts imo. I don't see anything wrong with this sequence, and the animations are top notch.It looks like he does though, When Drake shoots the NPC on the side on the right waist area, the NPC turns towards the right and takes a few steps back.

I don't get this? The Enemy is shot in the stomach and appropriately keels downwards as if he has been struck in the middle. How is that not an appropriate physical reaction?
