During each weekend The Lab is active, well be running a specialized playlist featuring one or more custom-tuned gametype variations from the tons of variables we can tweak in our multiplayer gameplay settings.
Well also be hosting a new thread for every event on the
Naughty Dog community forums to get your feedback and thoughts on each one of our The Lab events.
The Lab episodes for November are:
November 12 - 15
Youve experienced RPGs Only through our Deathmatch variations options and been through The Lab episode of Grenades Only to get your fill of explosives-only action in multiplayer. In that vein, weve focused on that one power weaponthe M32 - Hammer, just in case you didnt catch that just nowthat you all both love and hate. Were keeping Boosters active expressly so you are presented with the difficult choicedo I go for Sure Foot or Launch Man? Of course, some of you are going to go with Come Get Some for the extra cashalthough with relatively limited ammo in your M32 - Hammer, you may not want to opt for Half Loaded unless youre exceedingly masochistic or just want a challenge. Theres a few other gametype parameters were working out for this episode, so check back later this week for our regular Thursday update on The Lab for full details.
November 25 - 29
- Thanksgiving Event: Plunder - Snipers Only
This episode of the The Lab should be rather interesting to playyou may just find yourself running a gauntlet of sniper scopes trained at you from well-placed defensive positions as you try to bring the treasure to your teams chest to score. Or not. I do know that you WILL be able to get
a visual on your target, I mean opponent, a bit easier for this Thanksgiving Event, but remember, the hit boxes are the same size as the less, er, voluminous versions of Drake and Lazarevic. Were keeping Boosters activeso get your Deposit on for maximum cash in this Plunder variation, which will be DOUBLY effective during this Thanksgiving Event version of The Lab. See what I did there? As always, more full details will be available the day prior to when The Lab launches for the weekend.
