I didn't realize it was only yesterday and not a full weekend of 5x xp. Only played one match.
Pissed.

For instance, I'm a semi-regular MP player and I used to be level 55 for months, mostly because I refuse to use those crap negative boosters. Yesterday after about 6-8 hours of play I went up one level. :| And with the 5X multiplier. :/ AND with negative boosters
That's the thing that really kills Plunder. You get all these assholes who are just going for kills throughout the whole match. I score almost all of the treasures, and my whole team gets rewarded for it when they're not really going for it. It's B/S. I should be the only one that gets the money, not my shitty team that doesn't care. Naughty Dog should make it so that your Kill/Death ratio don't count in Plunder so that those K/D whores stay out of that mode. Or make it something like whoever carries the treasure gets the most cash. Give people an incentive to carry the treasure.thcsquad said:Plunder has the potential to be more fun, and my favorite matches are probably plunder matches. The problem is, I've had too many matches where my team was playing it like a deathmatch and not going for the treasure. In deathmatch, there's no way for your shitty teammates to aggravate you.
Same here. The amount of money you get after every match is so minimal. ND should make it double cash permanently or at least have double/triple cash weekends every so often. Ever notice that when there's events like the 1 year anniversary/double/triple cash weekends, there's more people who sign in to play online? Usually it's around 40k daily players, but when there's special events, it goes up by a lot...sometimes even up to 60k.jett said:Leveling up really does take a retarded amount of time once you reach a certain point.

I'd love to know what it was like when Naughty Dog was brainstorming the ideas of boosters in the game.electroshockwave said:That's not enough of an incentive for me to continue putting up with SA and lag.
So, is the MP in this still good? I only played when the game first came out. Don't know why I put it down.

Will be looking forward to tomorrow then!arne said:Looks like tomorrow, we pulled all the names today (there were a ton!) and so far it looks like tomorrow we'll set all the necessary flags - it will take some time.
I was planning on posting a message to our blog and in our forums/twitter once that's happened to take care of any issues.
Congratulations on finally reaching Level 60! Enjoy that sexy black X. I wish I still had it instead of this ugly pinkish one for Level 62.SteelAttack said:Last weekend was a productive one. Thanks to the 5x cash, managed to finally reach Lv 60 and get my fatty skin. I'm staying there. That's my peak. I'm not using negatives anymore.

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2010/10/22/uncharted-2-giveaways-coming-soon-anniversary-event-recap/We pulled a few amazing stats from the Anniversary Event we thought youd like to know:
* We recorded over 2.5 man years of game time in a period of just 24 hours(1 game that lasts 20 minutes = 20 minutes, regardless of how many players in the game)
* Those 2.5 years came from 1,079,850 player games (10 players in a game = 10 player games)
* We also saw 12,376,755 kills during our Anniversary Event (thats strictly pvp NPC kills in co-op games arent recorded)
* Everyone benefited from the 5x cash bonus and no cash cap, accumulating a collective $49 BILLION in in-game cash which would rank UNCHARTED 2 about #70 in the list of countries by GDP
* I only completed 66% of my 24 hour straight personal challenge (total #FAIL)
Depends. It's not hard to get used to the gameplay and become an average player. However, I'm not sure how the matchmaking will work out for you. Since I'm a level 62 player, I always get matched with high level players. Rarely do I see a low level matched up with me. I don't know how it would work out for a new player unfortunately. It doesn't really matter anyways since everyone has access to the same guns no matter what level you're on. The difference in levels only come in boosters and even then, some argue that you unlock the best boosters at a low level (around level 15 I believe).jakncoke said:Is MP lttp friendly?

Yeah, but beware of SA users.jakncoke said:Is MP lttp friendly?
I tried playing last week on an account I rarely use and mm was fantastic. All low levels and I was cleaning house (think I did 14-2 in that game). I switched back to my regular account and everyone was 50+ again. It seems like the MM balance issues they had at launch have all been fixed.Rewrite said:Depends.

Check it out yourself to see how you like it and report back in. I'm curious about your question myself!

And don't you love it when you also don't clarify it for the new user too? Cuz I do.Fuzzy said:I love it when people use acronyms that a new user has no idea about. Good job.
I'm a smart ass that didn't want to type out everything you just did.Rewrite said:And don't you love it when you also don't clarify it for the new user too? Cuz I do.
SA = Situational Awareness
A bullshit booster that you unlock around level 46 that allows you to see the whereabouts of the opposite team in a matter of seconds by pressing up.
Edit: Ha, you already revealed the acronym.
Not that it's anything to be proud of, but yeah, you are right about that. You are a smartass. Heh.Fuzzy said:I'm a smart ass that didn't want to type out everything you just did.
Fuzzy said:Situational awareness.
No.Phenomic said:I don't find Situational to be that big of a problem, I mean you have to be on a wall to do it.
Don't worry. it's all good!Fuzzy said:I'm a smart ass that didn't want to type out everything you just did.
Rewrite said:No.
Seriously?! I could have sworn I read somewhere that you had to be pressed up against something, or maybe just push up? Now I feel like an idiot even more I could be using OP Boosters and this whole time I've gone without it knowing. I bought it a while back and let it sit there. :lol
Irish said:Situational Awareness was, like everything besides Down the Irons, balanced in the Before Times. Being caught unaware meant nothing when outplaying the other player still meant something. :/
doctordoak said:Got this game at launch, finally platinum'd it today...my first plat!

Blu_LED said:Just got up to Lazarevic on Crushing. I'm almost certain it's impossible.
The combat is a lot better in the sequel. Shooting feels better, grenades are easier to use and melee is actually a viable strategy. The platforming is about the same as it was in the first game.Zertez said:I had a few questions about UC2. I picked up UC a few weeks ago and Im almost done playing through it. I really enjoy the story telling, action sequences, characters and va, but I was disappointed with the shooting and some parts of the platforming. Did they redo the shooting and make changes to the platforming in UC2, or is it the same, just more of it?
