Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
 
Hmm, I am surprised that the teaser for part 2 slipped through the cracks or maybe I am terrible at searching but yeah this was announced at the VGA... well shown at the VGAs and now there are some new screens, but might have to post teaser as well. :lolz:

I wonder if this one will contain Morlocks aswell.

Main character model is a bit ugly, the rest looks good. Never played the original of course.

Uncharted was a really good game, and I loved the Indiana Jones story. But I don't know whether it was the character animation or the framerate, but the game always made me dizzy, and I got a headache when I played for more than an hour.

I hope the second one doesn't have whatever problem the first game had that made me dizzy.

Thank god. I loved the first game. I can't wait now.

I liked the first one well enough, but I hope combat is easier.

It hardly ever made sense to do since whenever you got someone in the position like 5 more people would be shooting at you so it didn't have its benefits.

New footage of the game, looks nice.

do you fight an army of clones in this game? every enemy looks the same.

uber_paddler 05-26-2009 07:17 PM

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
 
Clone armies have never eeeever bothered me. When I look at the dudes I just see dudes. Don't really care what they look like.

with me its more like....i dont mind if they are wearing a mask ala mgs, but when you have the same guy with the same beard and the same hairdo wear different clothes, that is just lazy, i mean seriously? 3 to 4 head models maybe? feels like fighting agent smith.

I still don't understand why companies don't use random face generators. I came up with that when I played Golden Eye.

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
 
Like all of my luck, I got into the Uncharted 2 beta, and been trying it out for the last few days. It is a pretty sweet experience.

One thing before I start, having a mic on the Ps3 seems to be a special occasion unlike XBL (I mean it comes with the console).

That said this game is pretty sweet, there will be comparisons to Gears of War with the main difference being what is mapped to the A/X button. In Gears its your all purpose roll/dodge/roadie run button in Uncharted its your jump button. So I feel that the characters are a bit slower in Uncharted but you get a lot more mobility in exchange for that.

Many of the stages are built on multiple levels and that gives you distinct advantages in some cases, but not always.

Like today while playing, I discovered it is possible to toss somebody off of a ledge if your hanging on it, I did it purely accidentally, but the kid I did it to started freaking out, he thought it was so amazing. :lol:

It also works the other way though while hangin there you are kind of an easy target, sure you can shoot and stuff but you don't have much mobility nor cover so.

And right now there are two modes in the game, a capture the flag-esque mode called Plunder, and Deathmatch. Nothing really special or different done with them.

One call thing I also found today... well used for the first time, are throwable exploding barrels, I set one up in a narrow tunnel and when an enemy came running through just blew it up in his face. :lol:

Reminds me of the other thing, like Halo you get medals that you exchange for money at the end of the game to buy stuff. So that exploding barrel got me a medal called BBQ.

How did you get into the beta?

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
 
I friggin hate you for being in the Beta. I want in sooo badly. What kind of respectable fanboy can't even get into his consoles killer app's beta.

If you were ever around, maybe I could have helped you, but alas poor Yorick.

Well, now that you mention it, I am a fellow of infinite jest. And most excellent fancy for that matter.

Just so everyone knows, the full online demo is now out for the public on all PSN stores.

Downloading now.
PenguinBaB if anyone wants to play.

I just played this. Man, I'm pretty impressed. This is going to be a great game. I'm wondering if the final product will have split-screen online multiplayer? So me and my roommate can play together online? Not enough games do that...

I also just tried the Lost Planet 2 co-op demo, a lot of fun! I'm getting excited for games again, I guess I haven't really been playing any for a while now.

We should play sometime today Mr. Dark One.

Played a little co-op with Jason and totally carried him.

I wonder how my connection would hold up against you guys. It would be pretty sweet if we could play..

Yeah I'll grab my roommates Playstation ID or whatever it is when I get home. Don't think he has a mic though, which is too bad. I recently started playing Left 4 Dead on the 360 and the mic is essential.

And that is ok, I don't have a mic either. Yeah don't use a blue tooth for my phone. :(

This game looks amazing, almost makes me want to get a PS3.

No shame in that, got my PS3 for the original Uncharted.

So is anyone else playing the beta/demo?

I've played with Jason and Uberpaddler, but don't think anyone else, which is a bit sadden.

Bube 10-07-2009 11:48 AM

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
 
When are you available? I've got some studying to do, so can't play right now. But Night'll be home soon, he may be interested..

I've been playing so much other crap and doing schoolwork so much that downloading the demo hasn't even crossed my mind.

Just carried Munkul and Bube to the games of their lives. :P

Naw, but really I had fun, but as Bube learned, not a lot of us have mics for PS3es, go figure.

I wish you did have one. That would've been awesome. I've always envied the TF2 nights you had. Go on, buy one. At least buy a cheap cell phone Bluetooth headset compatible with the PS3. Come on :)

BTW, you could hear me talk, right? I haven't had much of a chance to try the headset yet.

On another note, my connection was pretty good. Just a bit of lag, but since the game is slow-paced, it's not much of a problem. I could play with you anytime! :)

I could hardly hear a thing you said actually. But oh well.

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
 
Because of the accent, or the (lack of) sound quality? :D

I don't think I've ever voice-chatted with anyone on GT. And that's gonna be hard now that I don't have internet at home.

Damn. I wonder if it's the connection or mic quality.

And also, has the demo expired for you guys as well?

Aw don't tell me that! They probably pulled that shit because the game came out today.

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
 
Yea the demo expires. They didnt really tell you that when download or while playing, but its true.

BreakABone 10-13-2009 09:18 PM

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
 
Well, it was a "beta" and not a demo.
Makes sense to close it down when the actual game comes out.

Bube 10-14-2009 05:07 PM

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
 
Yeah, too bad. I thought it would be over when the game came out, but I didn't know it came out the day I found it had expired :D

BreakABone 10-17-2009 11:16 PM

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
 
Oh the blasted game finally came in the mail.

So damn good, I think I played through about 75% of the game so far today.

There are so far, two nitpicks.. ish things I have with the game.
