Being a Huge fan from Uncharted 1 I noticed off the bat. I even checked out Uncharted before it had a name.

Drake comparison I found on the internet.

Oh man, multiplayer took a little bit of a dive. :( 3k people.

Yesterday night (here in Europe, Italy) were about 8k. I never saw numbers bigger than 12k so with cod out I think it was quite obviuos see a dive.

I still hoping the match statistics will come anyway

It started off with Crushing: All in the lead, followed by Deathmatch variants and then Plunder only when the respondents were sub-10k, then they started to even out, then Plunder only started to take the now decisive lead.

No explosives at 0 votes. Poor no explosives.
 
I always wanted to play Drake's Fortune in his clean white shirt. Somehow he was dirty as fuck as soon as you started playing :lol
 
are you guys pulling my leg? I can't see a no explosives option!

this is cruel, you should all be ashamed of yourselves.

Yeah, damn noobs can't play without grenades.
Can't you make the grenade launcher a pistol so you can have both Rocket Launcher and Grenade Launcher at the same time? That should please everybody.

I'm going to leap through my monitor and punch you square in the face. Brace yourself.

Just came in here to say that I can safely say I will be sticking with Uncharted 2 as my MP game of choice this season, because it's still the best MP experience I've had.

So, anyone not jumping on the MW2 ship that wants to play, feel free to send me a PM.
Same for me, my friend. I'll keep playing Uncharted 2 online, hopefully with GAF.

Just beat the game tonight, my GOTY so far, really really good.

Final boss was annoying, but I rarely like boss fights so meh. Those
ancient dudes
were also really tough, but satisfying when you took them down.


Just a superb game overall tho, can't wait for U3!!!

They're quite easy actually. You kill one of them take his crossbow and then the rest of them are a piece of cake.
 
Yesterday i played some online, you now what does the game needs?
MOAR ELENA SKINS!
It has too few!! Think about the posibilities... a villain Elena skin @__________@
DO IT ND DOOOOO IT!

I think I like Uncharted 2 more than 1, but one of the things I really miss in UC2 is that feeling of continuity. Like, when you're in the jungle in UC1, you can see the Custom's House waaaaaaay across the ocean. It felt like one giant interconnected journey. UC2 doesn't quite give the same feeling, each section feels a bit more separated, despite its eventual settling down in Nepal post-Chapter 5.

I'm a sucker for big, continuous worlds in linear games (God of War, Half-Life 2 etc).


I think you nailed this one right on the head. I didnt have a complaint about the first games location or lack of other locals, in fact I think it worked better. I have played through U2's campaign twice and my biggest complaint is how the levels too often feel disjointed because of the amount of locals you go to.

Shoot me a friend request (lowendtheory). I'm pretty surprised by how much more I enjoy Uncharted 2's MP over MW2 as well. The game just plays so well whether you're looking for a quick TDM game or planning to buckle down for a few hours.
 
SO I got my Capital One Gift catalog in the mail yesterday. For 100,000 points you can buy a PS3 Bundle. What game does it come with? "Uncharted Waters".

:lol :lol

I don't know why but I thought that was funny.

There is a picture of Uncharted 1 to a PS3 phat.

its not that hard guys. Even on the Hard difficulty, 1 grenade and a few AK shots and your good. I actually killed both guys with the same grenade, then picked up the crossbow and murdered old blue balls. Took me less then 2 mins to clear the room.
 
Was thinking that maybe they should add a playlist for noobs only. All game types, have to be under level 15 to join. That might help them get acclimated and not get them run over by high level players right away. They would hopefully get them to stick around a bit longer.

I'm officially boycotting MW2 (by having no money), so will stick with Uncharted 2 for a while. More of a co-op player, though I don't mind jumping into deathmatches/objectives. Have mic, will play.

Here's what I did:

-Very Easy
-Chapter 4: The Dig

Aim with L1 and shoot an enemy below the waist ONCE with a pistol then run up to them and hit square. Just make sure you're approaching them from the front... you don't want any stealth kills. I was keeping track and I didn't get the trophy until around 12 or 13 so just keep going even if it doesn't register at 10. Avoid the guys in Black since they take more damage and you don't want to risk shooting them one too many times or entering a melee battle with them.

Did this to everyguy that appeared and got nothing. Got the Steel Fist Master trophy though

This one took me a long time to get. Make SURE you actually hit the guys with a gunshot when you do it. I think that's what took me so long. I think you can 1 hit kill some of those guys with a kick/punch if you hit them right, even if you don't shoot them first, and then you're screwed. Once I took my time, and made 100% sure I actually shot each guy I killed, I got it. It took me about 15 to 20 tries though, and then it just popped up. Also, definitely avoid the guys in black. Let Sully deal with them.
 
Don't worry about the numbers that much.. it should pick up soon.. seeing as cod's online is wonky at the moment. Been trying to connect for the last couple of hours. I'm about to just jump on this instead.

I remember back in 2006 , people said that trailer is just a CGI and impossible in real time :lol

not only for Drake model Uncharted 2 surpassed U1 and the first 06 trailer in everything.
 
Do you know what this game needs? Throwing Knives.

The only problem I have with the Crushing variant is that it makes my CQC style worthless. I get shot to death before coming close to anybody.

Same. I can (and sometimes do) adapt and change my style, but I have less fun and end up with a lesser kill count.

it took me a few times, just take your time. Like the other post says dont mess the the guys in black..just concentrate on the guys in grey. shoot..wait until you see blood come out and run up and punch him. If you are behind them it may not work, as you may prompt a stealth kill. Count them while you do it, that way once you get to 10, and you notice you haven't got the medal, restart the last checkpoint.

It's not all that hard as long as you don't rush. dont worry if you get shot up, its almost impossible to die on very easy.

EDIT: LOL I just typed all that for nothing. Oh well congrats!
 
The problem with UC2 online is that it takes far too long to lvl up to where you can get decent perks and more characters to choose from, and people just dont want to wait that long, and also with the perks, it's going to be A LONG TIME before the perks start differentiating play styles you'll only have a couple of useless ones for several hours of playing.

as has been said, most of the good perks unlock very early on.

The only ones later on that are possibly good is the one for people who want more ammo for the hammer, and maybe the overused "Revenge" for dropping grenades. Im more of a pistol guy, so the 'increase pistol blindfire accurary" is perfect, and the "sure foot" for when explosions go off and you dont lose your balance are essentially vital to my playstyle.

Also with a week and a half of playing I went from 1 to currently 39.

i've been playing mildly the last 2.5 days and i'm lvl 12. I have no good perks. I dont see people sticking with this game just to get something decent when they can play MW2 now.
Not to mention the characters you unlock are one every ten lvls which is idiotic, and the high end ones aren't interesting to begin with ( skeletons....oh joy).

The game has been out for a month. MW2 just came out yesterday. So..yeah, a lot of people are going to start playing MW2. Not to mention that COD has one of the largest online fanbases in gaming..so it's pretty tough to compare the two.

Hopefully there are people out there who will stick to Uncharted 2 MP awesomeness. Or who will come back when ND releases DLC content.

I see where you're coming from, but you have to admit that progression rewards like that shouldn't be the thing that matters the most - it should be how much fun you have playing. I think the actual MP gameplay is very well done in this game, and it has terrain traversing aspect that you can't really have in a FPS game.
