ERROR INITIALIZING SESSION MANAGER..

You know.. They have PLENTY of time to make this work right.. It's unbelivable.

While I'm usually full cannons at the irrational defence force, this time I just have to say 'dude it's a beta'.

This is what a beta is for.
 
Damn. US download and I can't connect either.
"Error initializing session manager"

Oh well..... Add me while we wait people.

the RAGE!

Just a quick update - we're making changes to our matchmaking code/server so everything can go back up. There was an issue that popped up once the server was under a heavy load. I believe, from what my short conversation with VERY busy people were, that it's not a load issue, but just something else that the load exposed.

Either way, fingers are flying over the keyboard to get things up and running again ASAP.
Just give us a few minutes.

Also this. This isn't a demo disguised as a beta. :)
 
my 2 gripes so far

melee
its just hit and miss. walk up to guy from behind and 50% of the time you'll take him out with a finisher which is how its supposed to be, but there's always an even chance of you just getting 1 punch, which leaves him room to turn around and throw a nade at your feet.

the players
i couldn't get into a party intially so played with randoms, they were all obsessed with their k/d in plunder which is fucking stupid, leaving me to hurl the statue across the map. im almost at the chest and this cunt fires an rpg at me ( my own team mate), grabs the statue and bags himself a point. bastard

Has anything been said about the other co-op mode in Uncharted 2,or is it gone?
If you're talking about the co-op that are like mini missions, it'll be available in this beta too. Just not at the moment. They're switching up the playlists and Adventure co-op was listed there if I'm remembering correctly. I just don't know the exact date it's appearing in the playlist. Check the OP. I think it's there.
 
Giving up, I'm starting to feel sorry for all these session managers failing to initialize.

It was like that in U2. If the player's camera sees you it won't count as a stealth kill.

First time playing Uncharted MP? Here's a protip for you: NEVER do that. When sneaking up on someone, ALWAYS do it by blindfiring as you get closer, only after a good deal of bullets are in him do you use melee. In UC2 it only took one bullet from the pistol + one punch to kill, but it seems to take many more bullets in UC3. Melee has really been underpowered here it seems to me.

If there was a way to disable those "finishers" I would, most of the time they just leave me open for enemies to shoot me during the animation.
 
Lol, I cannot say I'm surprised this doesn't work. I don't think there's been a single beta by Sony that didn't have problems connecting onto the servers on day one.
 
Everyone is having some slight problems with PSN. lol

I got signed out, but now I'm back in.

Congratulations arne, look how many issues your beta download is causing today due to dat Uncharted fever. Hahaha!

I think that's the whole point. Risk, reward and all that.....

Good luck to you guys!
 
PSN fails yet again.

Can't even log in before that fucking error occurs and it signs me out. Nothing to do with my net connection Live and MMO have both been fine this evening.

This is why I remain in the 10% not returned to PSN.
