It keeps resetting my 60gig after 5-10 mins of play. Power led blinks red. It's very hot here but I don't think it is about the weather.

Your PS3 is on its way to Valhalla.

Yemen was the first map I played competitive on plunder. Fuck amazing map. Better than any map in U2 multiplayer imo

Yemen is god tier. Best Uncharted map.

For one, your PS3's a 60GB so it's already ancient and probably on the way out. PS3s got the function to shut itself down before it overheats, and since you're apparently playing in a very hot room (never a good idea with any console), it resetting isn't surprising.

Jett, I don't think I heard your response to the g-mal damage variable. ND said they never touched it.

Also, Yemen is pretty bad-ass. Only playing tdm right now, just to learn how to get around the map before I try any objective type stuff.

 

[Goreomedy]

Yemen is already a favorite.

Watched three enemy players in a row zipline to the sniper rifle balcony and take position. So, I took a ride on the opposite line, which gives you the perfect vantage point to drop a nade right into that nest.

My first triple kill grenade during the beta. Yemen, so good.

 

[AgentChris]

The Yippee Ki Yay medal is awesome to get on Yemen.

 

[alr1ght]

Yemen works extremely well in Hardcore, not so much in all the other modes where people just camp with a GMAL and kill in two bursts.

Back your shit up now.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Oh shit, everything is available now! I love Yemen, brilliant map. And Plunder + Team Objective is all I need for a good time. Awesome shit

What's there to say, I corrected myself before jrichmond posted that it still took 3 bursts to kill in hardcore and that we may have been exaggerating.

p.s. suck my dick

 

[Cheska]

So does anyone know if the records are kept by your user name or by the save data on the PS3? We have four ps3s in the house and I've played different modes on all four of them to unlock the decals for U3, but now I'm not so sure it will recognize what I've played unless it keeps track of it by username.

lol, I didn't mean it as an insult. I was just generally curious because I agreed with you that I was killing people in 2 bursts rather than 3 in normal TDM.

Ass.

 

[Niblet]

I'm still using micro to great effect, although not as beastly. I mostly use G-MAL so the micro seems to be the best choice of side-arm.

Can anyone explain how the call-out mod works? How do I know that I marked someone with call out?

 

[Jme]

Yemen is the most amazing map holy fuckballs. I wish this was out all 3 weeks instead of the last one only

Syria Adventure Co-op is awesome too - those sniper pistols up the final wall are fun!

Spoiler

even more fun is grabbing the heavy machine gun from that boss and rushing up the wall and taking all those dudes out

If you shoot them, and it hits, an indicator shows them on every one elses screen, similar to seeing where the treasure is in plunder.

Ass.

lolz ok sorry

Seems it was always two-burst kills in TDM, I don't even know anyway. I didn't use GMAL much in the early days of the beta...it just seemed like it did more damage now.

 

[gurasa]

I'll ask this again, what does this mean regarding the Cloaked booster "opponents will not see your player arrow and you are difficult to hear"?

 

[Patapwn]

Oh fucking christ. Protip, when you're playing random and you come across a gaf party, just quit.

Ryandavince guy, I just played your team. Level 8s vs. level 40s. fun times.

 

[Sullichin]

You can pick up a paid booster in the treasure chests? I swear one time I picked up the "PING" booster.

If you use bargain, and you buy the paid bargain perk, does it stack?

Plunder is fucking ANNOYING when people on your team are way more focused on kills. Why the fuck are you sniping from a tower all the way across the map, we need you over here!

 

[jett]

The final section of Syria was kind of annoying, climbing felt really unresponsive.

 

[Steve McQueen]

Hotdamn. Yemen rocks! Can't wait to see the other maps coming up in November.

 

[Norml]

The adventure mode is just a small part for beta and not the whole level right?

 

[Rikyfree]

Yemen is fantastic. SOOOOO vertical and I love it!

 

[alr1ght]

The adventure mode is just a small part for beta and not the whole level right?

yes. The U2 beta's co-op level was about 1/4 of the whole level.

 

[Phoenician_Viking]

Dammit. Every time i play Co-op people leave the game and make me lose all the money i gathered.

 

[Uno Venova]

The adventure mode is just a small part for beta and not the whole level right?

Yeah, your going to fight the Heli in the full game, the Uncharted 2 beta cut off the co-op mission at a climactic point too.

 

[CozMick]

Yemen is godly, Coop Adventure is, well.....short :\

Noticing a few graphical bugs on Yemen when looking through the archway in the centre of the map, disappearing floors/textures and blue screen etc.

Still, amazing! almost Village tier.

 

[Irish]

Ryandavince guy, I just played your team. Level 8s vs. level 40s. fun times.

Heh, that means you were playing against me as well. Was it plunder?

Yep.

 

[Phoenician_Viking]

The sniper pistol is the best weapon. Wow at the accuracy of the gun.

 

[Rikyfree]

Heh, that means you were playing against me as well. Was it plunder

Hehe GAF almost always wins. I was there too. I think in all the matches we played, we only got scored on once, maybe not even that. Constant shutouts.

 

[Patapwn]

Heh, that means you were playing against me as well. Was it plunder?

Yes, and it was the Yemen match... you probably kill way to many people to remember but I was prongwongtong

 

[Hot Coldman]

OK, now I'm very confident I never want to play against Irish.

 

[alr1ght]

we almost had a shutout TDM earlier. It was 30-0 before one of us was killed.

 

[Irish]

All the U2 GAF regulars are pretty equal. We're nothing special.

It's funny. When playing in a party of 5, you never really feel like you are doing all that well since everyone is getting roughly the same amount of kills. It isn't until you play by yourself where you see just how big of a difference all of your playtime has made.

 

[Treb]

Yes, and it was the Yemen match... you probably kill way to many people to remember but I was prongwongtong

Ah, that name stood out when I was playing with Ryan's group earlier. GGs!

 

[Niblet]

I'll ask this again, what does this mean regarding the Cloaked booster "opponents will not see your player arrow and you are difficult to hear"?

AFAIK, the arrow refers to the name tag + arrow you see over the heads of people on your screen. So the booster hides that from the enemy. Instinctively, you expect to see the red arrow over the heads of the enemy. Quieter steps is pretty obvious.

 

[jett]

man this plunder match, 5-0, lasted less than four minutes. :lol

 

[BeeDog]

Turned on the PS3 for the first time in a few days to try out the Yemen map. Great stuff, especially how it actually looks considerably better than the other maps.

Thanks dude.

 

[jett]

Sometimes I see a sort of infinity symbol next to a player's name, what's that all about

 

[KevinCow]

I swear to god I just saw three rockets randomly come out of a wall. What the hell.

Also could someone explain these paid boosters at the beginning of a match? Are they just boosters you can buy to last for one match?

 

[LaneDS]

Ah, that name stood out when I was playing with Ryan's group earlier. GGs!

Ryan = Irish? I remember an IrishRyan PSN handle last week, but can't remember if I was playing with or against him. I have a bad (good?) habit of turning on my headset, muting myself and muting everyone else just so I never hear anything through the speakers unless I'm partied with someone else.

 

[Irish]

Ryan = Irish?

Nah, Ryan is another poster on here that we play with. RyanardoDaVinci

 

[AngryMoth]

Would love to play with of you guys sometime but I don't have a headset if that's an issue.

I really hope they decide to extend it a little bit to give people more time with Yemen and the new weapon balance.

 

[PhiLonius]

Got on today after having not played for about a week.

The Yemen map is just amazing. Got a perfect double kill with a grenade while zip-lining across the map. Micro still seems kind of strong.

 

[Niblet]

They have active the kickback that removes the need to reload (Militia man?).

Exactly.

 

[Twinduct]

Just want to chirp in and agree in Yemen being awesome! Lag is killing melee for me though. Over the course of the beta, I've fallen pray to waaay too many 'take-down' glitches. I would start a silent takedown, the guy would die on my screen. As I run away, I teleport back to the guy and instead of me killing him, he will shoot/ melee me to death.

I was blasting someone in the face with a micro and they still somehow killed me. They definitely lowered the damge on that.

Also, I like Yemen, but I in team deathmatch it just turns in a sniper camp fest.

STOP PLAYING FOR A WHILE. or atleast try to find a fan or something to cool it with.


I got YLOD last week because of the damn heat. I'm jealous at all the new content coming up and I can't play till probably Tuesday when I get my PS3 fixed
