Uncharted 3 Subway Beta Sharing Thread: Subcharted Frontiers By Subway

I've got two questions regarding this early multiplayer deal.

Will your ranks and stats carry over to the full retail game when it launches?


Also, will you earn multiplayer trophies right now, assuming the game has some?

Yes, it's for no-us member, I believe they should track. Isn't stat tracking only based on the id and it's stored on ND's servers?
Also, there's people like me in South America, who will still get the US version but we don't get the subway promotion

Who knows!? This starts in just a few days, why would you think anyone would even want to answer any questions about a huge promotion for Sony's biggest franchise?

"No no no, there's no need to provide our fans and customers detailed information easily accessible on our websites, or in a press release. Why would we do that? We made cups! You know... to drink out of!"

Yeah, the lack of Arne in this thread is both surprisng and disapointing.

I think ND is reconsidering this promotion because they've realized what a community destroying move this could be.

too late, subway probably has the stuff already.

only thing they can do now is open it up to people outside US through PS+ etc

They could delay the promo. Has Subway officially announce anything? It doesn't seem like it

But why not just publicly announce this already instead of corresponding by email...
Because they love to torture us.

Raistlin and I just went. He got an uncharted 3 cup with a code.
Can you post a photo please? Obviously you can erase some characters from the code.
 
My guess is the code can't be entered until 9/29...I don't see anywhere on Subway.com to enter it. The cup says to go there...so there's not a special URL for this as far as I can tell.

Yes, the cup is Uncharted themed. You need to get the large plastic ones.

Does the code fit PSN's code thingy?

Format is 8 alphanumeric characters if that helps.

There's a back portion to the cup that has the code, and it says "EVERY CUP'S A WINNER! With first access to Uncharted™ 3"

Definitively a Subway code. The PSN ones are 12.

Is the look of the plastic cup distinctly different? I got a normal cup today, but I did notice that the larger plastic cups at my subway didn't look unique... I'D BE SO MAD IF THEY HAD THEM BUT I GOT THE WRONG SIZE XD

edit: I see the pic now above, that is pretty distinct

I'm pretty sure I read that yes, ranks and stats will carry over to the full retail game. I don't have any sources though.

Dunno about the trophies, since the only thing that will carry over is server side data. I bet that part is disk based.

So the codes are just printed on the cups?

It's Subway trash digging time, fellow gaffers!

Wait really? It's not like a pull off sticker or something. Honestly though, I go into a local subway next to my work a lot. Maybe I will just ask the guy for some free cups, he probably wouldn't care.
 
I hope smaller Subways participate in this. Like suburban ones.

Gonna assume that there'll be a list of participating locations on the 29th when it's supposed to officially begin.

Lol, if not, I'm gonna call every one in a 20 mile radius to find out who is doing it.

Even if it is a sticker people are just going to throw the whole thing away. Happens all the time with that Monopoly stuff at McDonald's.

They're printed on and not obscured...I almost took a nonchalant pic of some guy's cup to steal his code. LOL.

Feasibly a lowlife Subway employee could just write down every code from a stack of cups if they wanted.

Well, there you go!
