Uncharted 3 MP Beta Thread: Cinematic Murder Testing

So I just hit rank 25. Yeah, I fucking LOVE this game. It blows my mind that I am having so much fucking fun with just 2 maps and a fraction of the stuff the full game will have.

Matchmaking, atleast for me, is now much better. Not great, but decent. Enough that I don't actively complain about it. It could be better though.

Also, what does current rating: bronze mean? Its in that rolling stats bar.

I was wondering about this as well. Some kind of player skill measure? Mine's bronze too, and I'm a baddie, so that's what I assumed.
 
I'll tell you one thing that's annoying. Not being able to join a friend or group of friends party if they were doing co-op. Also having to wait 20 minutes because the invites don't pop up so they don't know you're around to play, while they finish their co-op.

Other than those issues it seems to be going well since the patch was released.

Yes its so fun like I said earlier this will be something special.

This. I don't understand how they have mid match joining but you can't join a match with a friend. Hopefully it is implemented.

I still wish they would up the Co-op limit from 3 to at least like 5 or 6.

I've been speculating that it might be a prestige thing... you know; like Bronze, cobber, silver, gold, diamond or something like it.

Perhaps it has something to do with the amount of treasure you've picked up?
 
this multiplayer is definitely more fun that U2's. A lot just needs to be balanced booster and kickback wise (no changes to health though) and A LOT of polishing.

- accuracy on the weapons shouldn't be changed much, just make the pistols do a little more damage.

- the sprinting feature isn't too great. Give us more control while we're doing it.

- i'm ok with the slower feel of the game overall, but make the aiming more quick and smooth.

Yeah, this is weird. They already had a pretty nice party system in UC2. I don't know why they just copied it over to UC3.

Three team deathmatch is so much fucking fun with friends for me. You've got NO idea how addicted I am to that mode. It's literally like crack.

How is that even remotely similar? Why would you bring the UC2 booster into this?

PPs are a handicap that the player does nothing to deserve. Having 4 or 5 of them a match is ridiculous.

And they come into play because teams are totally fair, indeed. If this was something like a league, yeah. In UC2 people played those negative boosters for extra cash and stuff in an attempt to even your handicapped skill vs someone that has less experience. They seem to have decided that this judgement will be based on how you play, rather than having a negative booster for it.

Having 4 or 5 of them means there's a problem of stacking, a severe problem of it that shouldnt even be funny to the winning team, as it was completely unchallenging.

People say random stuff, and power plays, and so on are a disgrace for a competitive gamemode, and if they take it the literal way, it is indeed true. That's why there's hardcore, which i've been playing more recently... not because of anything particular...

ohh yeah, for something. Stackers in TDM. Being with sub10 levels against 30s. Cool story not. They murder them so viciously they get eternal kickbacks. Yeah, we get powerplays and waoh! they have a rocket launcher or vanish in smoke, etc. Also, they get more money per kill.

Power plays are like timed team negative boosters. They give you extra cash for every kill, so in my opinion it evens out.

By the way, i'd love a 2 vs 2 vs 2 vs 2 vs 2. Lol. As in FFA with partner.

I'm not very good at aiming medium-long range either. I use a fully-modded Uzi with weapons expert and get up in everybody's biznez. Deadly-ass weapon, it's so going to get nerfed by final release. High risk, only way to play Uncharted for me. I also use daredevil to get continous ammo for the Uzi.
Ah I see...I need to use my uzi more. Mine is just stock but I mostly rely on the G-Mal. It is a great weapon if my aim wasn't so terrible lol. Been a while since I played console 3rd person shooters of this pace though. Think the problem with me is that once I know where I want to go, I just run straight to it w/out paying much attention to my surroundings. I just rush like a tiger into the minefield.

I like the beta overall. Kinda addictive.
Need to try co-op.
 
I gotta repeat what alot of people have been saying but high five-ing and brofisting is such a brilliant satisfaction.
Its the bees-knees.
 
the 3 team death match is amazing when you're playing with all skilled people. I pulled off some crazy escapes thanks to the increased health from uncharted 2 and some nice triple kills.
 
FTH said:
grrr, freaking come at me bro gamers trying to turn this into Call of Duty!! no!
I think I see what you mean. Game is perfectly fine the way it is. Hate going to sleep because I have to stop playing.
 
I just want to say that U3b 'Hardcore' mode played in a decent p2p host (EU or good USA connection, non Wal Mart) is the best multiplayer experience I've had this year, amazing stuff, thanks Ryan for inviting me to those games... of course we destroyed everyone, then we played regular TDM again... this game on Airstrip we were leading 19-3 after the initial airplane hijack sequence... ridiculous, and we were playing as villains, someone must youtube that lol
 
After playing Uncharted 2 today health definitely needs to be lower.I would like it to be identical to U2.The game is just faster and plays smoother with less health.

How it is now should be for enemies with really light armor.I can't imagine how much it will take for later wave guys in co-op with armor like in the gif.

are you crazy? you have U2 for that shit leave U3 alone.

No way, U2 health is too low, the health in Uncharted 3 is perfect.
 
I think we should make all guns have a 1-shot kill. Seems fair enough.

I just think using half a clip to take a guy with a t-shirt out is slow as hell.
Eh, you're doing something wrong...

Im laughing, I hope this isnt serious. The health is perfecto.
 
Ended up cancelling the install, been on pretty much a complete media blackout for this game and want a complete and fresh experience when i buy it.

Besides i only played like an hour of the multi-player in UC2, the coop stuff does intrigue me.. maybe if i can find someone to do the coop stuff i might dl it.

Headshots should take one hit.

Maybe that is the only or main problem making it seem slower.I just know I hear cha ching way more often and in rapid succession in U2 and it feels much better.
 
After playing for a decent amount of time, it isn't any better than the 2nd, a piece of dog shit. I swear, damn near every fucking shooter I have played online is poorly made. Do it right or don't do it all. The only shooter that I enjoyed is Lost Planet ( not the 2nd) and Killzone 2.
 
I FUCKING love this game i have been playing it when ever i get the chane so ill most likely be on this all night! Anyone wanna party up? Oh and im still mad i havent played on Yeman :/.

Oooh boy.... this wont end well.

Yeah, that's what this game needs, random ass kills. Maybe you should step yo game up, when I play solo I routinely get over 15 kills per match. Enough cha-ching for me!

Get the fuck out and play more CoD if you wanna hear sounds indicating you killed someone more often.

I'll eco the statement that this is so fun with just two maps. And the M9 it's god-like. That is all.
What level does this and the Uzi unlock?

I've had a fair bit of fun with the game, but it does a poor job with showing you the future unlocks, and when you get them for the most part.

Unless I'm just not looking in the right place.
 
highluxury said:

Lost Planet 1 was great in Post Grab vs mode.

Edit: Wait what? Uncharted 2 is the furthest you can get from a horrible MP 3rd person shooter as possible. Nothing else like it.
 
I refuse to believe that the people asking for the health to be lower aren't being serious.

If you are, then this game is not for you. Move on and don't ruin it for the rest of us. You already did it for Uncharted 2 and I'll be damned if I l let that happen twice because of awful suggestions like yours.
