was that dickhead on the last couple of pages banned?

The ... one?

Yes, he was.

Edited this post as people are (understandably so) overly sensitive to potential spoilers.

I was "quoting" an user who has been trolling with unmarked "spoilers", aka a theory that has been around as early as E3 2014.

If you haven't been spoiled at all DON'T CLICK THE ABOVE TAG, in case it's real. It's not a small spoiler...

Edited to stop more people from reading it.

Yes, he was.

Aaand...I clicked on that expecting 'easter egg' line or whatever. WHY.

Da fuck. I am so fucking pissed at myself and everything right now. Leaving this thread for good.

I know this thread is playing with fire but there are lines each and every member should respect.

It's fake, don't worry about it.
 
Ugh. This wait is tearing me apart :(

one?

Yes, he was.

I can't believe you just did that and I can't believe I just walked right into it.

Unbelievable. And I had been so careful too. It's amazing how days and days of extremely cautious browsing can be invalidated by casually letting your guard down for just a moment.

I will overreact for a few minutes and then be fine. But, MAN, true or not, why did I click that?

It really sucks but at least it might be fake, and if you're like me (and have carefully avoided spoilers) you still have the vast majority of the game unspoiled for you.

Yeah, I know. Even if it's true, it won't ruin the game for me. I just wish I had maintained my 100% aversion. You take a risk when you click spoiler tags, and I shouldn't have done that.

I'll get over it and be back to normal momentarily. But the initial shock of having made a mistake I was trying to avoid is frustrating.

It's on me.

Don't worry man.

I wouldn't have posted it if I knew it was true. Which I, to be honest, cannot confirm nor deny.

But as it has been a theory basically ever since the title was announced we should treat it as that until we've experienced the game for ourselves.

It was a dumb joke, don't worry.

I still hope the second moron was just trolling, seems like it, but don't know for certain.
 
Ok...already enough proof for me that this is contender for GOTY. I'll be in other threads guys from now on. Enjoy early players. Can't wait for the discussion thread.

Guys calm down, I'm willing to bet on it that it's fake, it was a dumb joke, he wanted to see how the thread explodes and he did.

That spoiler tag was really irresponsible btw, you don't write serious shit like that without even blinking, even though it's almost certainly fake.

If the guy who spoiled without tags was trolling, please PM confirming he was indeed trolling lol

I can't confirm the second guy, I can't even confirm for 100% the first as well but I will easily bet on it that he was trolling and it's fake.

On the second guy, I'm not willing to bet, it could be true and it make sense it is but there is a chance for trolling as well, I rather leave it like that, being uncertain than to investigate it and know for certain :)

People coming into a thread like this and then highlighting spoilers while claiming to be on a blackout are just...*shakes head*

Really people? You don't want to be spoiled on the game yet you are highlighting spoilers?

I just watched Civil War and I left the cinema apathetic towards the film.

So I'm really counting on Uncharted 4 being good.

Anyway, I'm out again. Have fun guys, don't spoil too much for yourselves.

Out at lunch and checking in on the thread. Holy shit, what happened in here since this morning. Damnnnnn.

Someone nonchalantly posted untagged major spoilers in response to the Easter egg discussion. Post was deleted.

Someone else also posted tagged spoilers that were not well described, but it seems they may have been fake/a joke.

Basically the thread for people to keep track of this game's release distribution has now become an unsafe spoiler minefield.

It's always a tough balance. People don't avoid all kinds of spoilers equally. I'm just avoiding story spoilers, personally, and a thread about a truck being hijacked doesn't necessarily scream story spoilers. Especially since I am still excited about the game and am looking to share in the prerelease excitement.

But, like I said, it's on me for clicking and I'm already over it.
 
Here is something I posted over on reddit since I have access there from work. Not really gameplay spoilers or anything but how this game is really resonating with me on a personal level.

Please note: There is no spoilers in this post for the game aside from the general theme that is already known from trailers (Nate going back to adventure). Just discussion on how the game has made me feel playing it so far in a more personal light.

So I was able to get my copy of Uncharted 4 yesterday and began my adventure with my wife in what is possible the last Uncharted game. I will say, it's a tad sad just even thinking about that as I've grown to love these characters as I have grown up in life.

Let me say, so far this Uncharted is hitting me in all the right ways, but not just from a gameplay perspective, but from a story and theme. We all know that Nate is living a normal life now after his years of adventure and he gets dragged back into the adventure life. I lived my 20's playing Uncharted games, growing with Nate along the way. It's been about 4 years since I played Uncharted 3, back when I was contracting and overseas. I was traveling, single, seeing the world. Dubai, Thailand, Kuwait, Afghanistan. During that time, I completed Uncharted 3 and it felt like the end to a great saga... but little did we know at the time that Uncharted would eventually come back. As it does, I'm now in my 30's, married, and with a beautiful 2 year old girl. Life has taken a different style and approach and I love it (it's an amazing journey all on it's own). What does this have to do with Uncharted 4? Well... because I can relate to Nathan in a way. Sure I'm not some adventurer, but my days of being more adventurous and daring is a bit more subdued since I have to worry about my family and life is not just about myself anymore. So not only am I returning to the world of Uncharted in video game format but so is Nate in a way. They showcase how Nates daily life is typical, while even throwing in nostalgia for those old adventure days (you will understand when you play)... which in turn had me reminiscence about the previous games and my life experiences also. So when Nate gets thrown into this new adventure, back to this crazy life style, and here as the player I do too... I'm totally relating to it in a way I never expected. It's not to say my life is boring or dull now that I'm married and have a kid, not at all, it's fantastic. Yet via the PS4 and Uncharted 4, I'm taken back to those moments when I was younger, braver, bolder, and revisiting those same feelings just as Nathan is in this game and older, different then before. He has changed, has different priorities, but he craves and wants to return and in playing this game, in a way, I've returned to the lifestyle as well. It's hard to explain but I hope I ended up giving you a glimpse into the thought process I have for this.

I could go on and on about how much I love this game, how much they have improved, the excitement, the adrenaline, and more... but I had to bring this up since It just resonates with me so much on a personal level and my life, that's something I never expected from Uncharted 4. Just another reason I love video games and how they an sometimes strike a cord with players and their life experiences in just the right way.
 
Wtf with that spoiler above l clicked it by mistake. Arghhhhhhhhh.

Hink you are reffering to my post so I am going to clarify this once and for all.

I was quoting a guy that has ben rightfully banned for posting this shit unmarked to troll people.

I tagged it in case anyone might not want to read it. It was in context of another user asking if a person in this thread has been banned.

Anyways I am going to delete my post.

That all sounds awful, naughty dog need to realise that games are made to be played, all that matters is gameplay not shitty story. The game better but gameplay as the focus rather than story, make it like TLOU where there's a mediocre little story to keep one going but great gameplay and level design.

Duckmann needs to stick to movies or books if he wants to write stories, a game directed by Straley alone, a dude that understands good gameplay would be so damn good. UC4 sounding very story driven which just ain't right. Regretting the deluxe edition big time with the games feedback so far.
