Uncharted 3 MP Beta Thread: Cinematic Murder Testing

Apdiddy said:
I can't even log in to view my stats. I'm getting "missing return URL parameter" error....I know the site has high traffic right now, but I'm hoping there's something I can do to eliminate that error.

A few months ago I started having this problem. I think it's an Internet Explorer issue because I switched to Firefox and I can log in fine.
 
Had a great fucking time with the beta. In the end, I reached level 35, and filled every requirement, so I feel satisfied with getting the most out of this beta.

But yeah, day 1 for me. No question. I've had more fun with this 3 week beta than I have had with many other games I paid full price for.

I just hope this beta helped ND out. A lot of great suggestions I saw, lots of bugs and glitches, balancing tweaks. Hopefully ND can absorb all of that and give us an even more amazing game in November.
 
I just finished my last required Team Objective match as beta went down!!! :) Awesome game. Can't wait for singleplayer, multiplayer, and coop. Honestly if they were selling these separately I would buy all three :D
 
Game Over. Logged out, no more in. (disconnected myself to get out of a matchmaking to check a Cinema file -> Error downloading config file. :C)
Damn, if it wasn't for BF3 - preordered months ago - this would suck me in from day one. Great job NDs.

Well that was so much fun, I really can't wait til Uncharted 2 comes out. Great beta ND!

Just work on the grenade throwback, it's borderline useless.
 
Oh how I wish Uncharted 3 multiplayer was something that you could just install on your harddrive and have it ready to play whenever you like regardless of the UC3 disc inside or not. Make it require an online pass to activate it or something.
Gonna miss the beta.

100% agree. I would play it a lot more if there was a downloadable version.

So, everyone's favourite moment of the beta? Mine had to be racking up 60 points on Treasure Hunter just by running at a nearby wall, haha

Winning a Plunder match in 4 minutes and me getting all 5 scores without dying.

Well done, haha, I've played plenty of matches where I feel like I've basically saved my other team but that'd be nothing like actually doing all the legwork yourself :P

Hard to pinpoint one. My "2 guys 1 zipline" kill from today was quite badass though :D

Grisby said:
Beta over? :(

What do I need to keep the rewards? Is it all server side? Is it cool to delete the beta form the games list?
Yes. Wait. Yes. Almost certainly yes.

Yes. Wait. Yes. Almost certainly yes.

Maybe....?

I only ask because for the Gears beta you had to keep a save file and I don't play many betas, :(

Oh, and my favorite moment was my first co-op adventure game. That whole session was magical.

I went back and watched the video the next day and I still don't know how it happened so flawlessly lol. Definitely a one time thing.

Whenever I got someone with a grenade after they killed me with close-up blind fire. Throw a grenade at my feet and see the oponent flying through the air after they took me down with their stupid AK-47.
 
Is it over for sure? PSN just gave me a maintenance message, so maybe its an update or something of the sort...?

I'm just looking for anything other than the beta being over, haha. How are we expected to wait till friggin' November?!! Damn yous ND!!
 
Congrats to Naughty Dog on what looks to have been a very successful beta.

It's pretty clear that a lot of dedication and TLC went into trying to craft a fun and balanced competitive MP mode. And it showed, despite all the early whining. I'll take UC3 over generic FPS'es (and Gears) any day of the week.

All in all, I think Uncharted 3 will have no problem becoming a highly popular multiplayer shooter on PS3. I know I'm hooked, at least. Obviously it won't compete with MW3/BF3 in terms of sheer numbers, but it should find a nice and sizable niche player base.

I hope the game gets the sales and recognition it deserves in a highly competitive year packed with heavy hitters.

Preordered Uncharted 3 and can't wait till November.
 
I'm going to miss playing this Beta. I was able to reach level 37 last night, and I wish I could just keep going. It was so fun and now I can't wait for the game to release. November, how I long for thee.
 
Nooooooooo.jpg

I didn't know it was ending today. Good thing I played last night though.

BTW, anyone have the link to check your stats? I dont want to search through 150 pages+ :lol
 
It was fun. It didn't change anything as I was going to get it day 1 anyway. Still wish I got to play against some gaffers though.

Well, as shown by the stats page, all the data is kept server side so I doubt we'll need to keep anything locally. But, of course, before deleting my save I'd wait for Arne to (hopefully) chime in.

This beta made me rebuy Uncharted 2 so that the waiting won't feel that long. Back when U2 was launched I still have my old crappy lcd tv but I just tried the U2 demo with my current telly and holy smokes the game looks good now (and the 200Hz mode makes the game look like it runs at 60 fps).
 
Adam Blade said:
Nope. I'll just have to trust arne's word that they have all the stats in somehow.
I tried loading the stats page earlier and the data showed up immediately (well, once the page finally loaded, that took a bit).
My data used to have weird TDM matches played in 1969 but everything showed up correctly today, so I'm quite confident all the stats they have on the server are correct.

Adam Blade said:
And we still didn't get to play. :(
Yeah :(
Looking forward to playing together in the full game, sir.

Throwing a grenade from the zipline to a couple of absolutely oblivious campers in the balcony I was headed to, in Yemen's heroes side, and landing in the middle of the explosion unharmed. Double kill, double Yippie ki-yay medal, double rainbow. My first Fury medal in the beta, IIRC.
Oh I so want a capture card for the retail game, awesome moments happen way too often not to share them :D
 
Some of the shit you guys are describing sounds great. I hope there's an upload-to-Youtube feature in the final game. (I haven't heard anything said about that, I could have missed it. Should be standard for nearly all games nowadays IMO)

Joining a Plunder match of 3 against 5, Villains 0 heroes 4, and we turned the tides and won the game. :D That was some awesome teamwork.

Oh, and killing a dude on the zipline while ziplining myself behind him using the pistol on yemen map. Those ziplines go on for ages!

Thanks.

Not to shabby.

My kdr isn't to bad either. Wish I got to get to level 25 atleast.

Edit: Thanks ND, Beta was amazing.
 
My favorite moment was in a free for all match with a lowbie. It was in yemen with one of the towers. We were both hanging outside of it next to each other and he was mocking about how I can't touch him in this scenario. I was like, "Oh yeah?" and side kicked him off. Epic bitching ensued.
 
Favorite moment was getting three headshots with the sniper rifle from people who jumped out of the buildings in Yemen. It was hilarious seeing their bodies do the sniped animation while they were in mid-air. All in one match too. In Uncharted 2, there was a time I ran into a Naughty Dog dev who was playing in a party with other people and I also got a headshot in mid-air from him in The Flooded Ruins. :)

I had way too many epic trash talking moments too. So many of the players raged at me. Two days ago, my friend and I did 3 Team Deatmatch and we were up against some trash talking level 30's. Constant saying shit to us. Of course, the match begins and we begin to destroy them. They start to rage and as much as they tried to kill us, they could not get a single kill. So they were like, "Man fuck these guys, fuck you bitches" and left the game. We finished that match of 3 Team Deathmatch and went back to matchmaking to find a new pair and guess what? We picked up those same 2 trash talkers. At first they didn't notice, but after the map selection became available they said, "Hey, aren't they the guys from the last game? Oh yeah....fuck". The match started, me and my friend hunted the both of them down in less than a minute of the match starting and all you heard was screaming out of both of them on mic before they raged quit AGAIN. :lol :lol :lol
 
Oh, two more things: awesome game freak outs I saw. One was entering the main Airfield section in the villain's truck, except the truck wasn't there (I spent about a minute laughing). The other was earlier today, when our team (Heroes) won a TDM game in Yemen- the cutscene played with Drake and co rounding up the villains, but one of the Drake's fell over dead and then kind of fell through the world. Also hilarious.

What's a lowbie?
