**Official Uncharted 2: Among Thieves Thread**

You know you've been playing too much of this in multiplayer when you walk into a science classroom (I work in a school) and flinch when you see a skeleton in the corner of the room. If he was wearing a red beret I would have had a breakdown.

Has anyone else tried playing Uncharted 1 since completing Uncharted 2?

I've started it all over again last night and OMG is it tough! You cant sustain even half the amount of bullet fire you can in the second game and enemy's are even harder to dispose of which makes the lack of ammo a problem as well. To be expected aiming isn't as polished as it is in the second game but playing it through on Normal I was not expecting such a hard time of it :(

Must see it through though, I'm only on chapter 5 - a lot of frustrating nights to come.....

I played through uncharted 1 on crushing on another account i had but at times it was a bit of a slog and i only played through on hard with this account i just didnt have the patience to try it again .
 
Save me having to read through 33 pages :p

I had never heard of the first game, and nor the second until I noticed some of the reviews, quite incredible ones at that.

Is this basically like Tomb Raider on crack, or can anyone give me a rundown of some kind?

And do you need to have played the first to play the second properly or?

Cheers :D
 
It a 3rd person shooter with a nice story, amazing graphics, some easy puzzles and some climbing sections and IMO a must buy for every PS3 owner.

You don't have to play the 1st one but as always it gives a bit more background about the people in the game.

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves Celebrates Halloween With A Title Update And A Double Cash Weekend

The next time you start up UNCHARTED 2: Among Thieves you will be required to download an update to the game.

Here’s the list of (most of) the changes we made. Some changes have been withheld to protect the innocent.

-Addressed respawn points when the artifact goes out of bounds in the Plunder gametype
-Dynamically adjust the win condition for fewer players during the course of a match
-Added features to deter players from voluntarily leaving during a match
-Added rate limit to “When a Chapter is Completed” Twitter event
-Fixed a display issue during letterboxing
-Fixed Danish Trophy description
-Fixed screenshot utility in standard definition resolutions
-Fixed the “Players Met” list not displaying recent players
-Addressed a variety of Multiplayer connectivity issues

BUT, that’s not all…

With Halloween on the horizon, we wanted to take this spooky occasion to announce that this weekend is also our first ever Double Cash Weekend in UNCHARTED 2: Among Thieves. The Double Cash Weekend starts on Friday, October 30, 2009, at 6:00 PM GMT and continues until Monday, November 2, 2009, at 6:00 PM GMT.

I am suspecting the bit I highlighted in red, refers to the very high number of people who have already completed Crushing and got Platinum trophies using glitches :)

...Anyway...Double cash NOW (well 30 mins ago).

I think I will be playing multiplayer co-op, getting double cash, whilst ignoring the doorbell from Trick or Treater's :) Be on in an hour or so.

Edit: Patch 1.01 is 20mb

Hey dudes,

I somehow missed the hype train for this game, but turns out it's a bit of a corker (96% on metacritic?! :eek: ). Just wondering what the general concensus from you lot is? I didn't pre-order, so is it worth forking out ~£38 for it now whilst the multiplayer servers are still populated? :p

Cheers,

Su

The multiplayer servers are not even that populated to be honest. There were more people online when the Beta was on and that was multiplayer only. Most nights there is 11k to 16k people. The free beta had 16k people.

Read the last few pages of the thread for opinions.

Im not getting the double cash i think, thought i do have the 2 skins form mp which must have been in the update.

I think the 2 skins are just for the weekend, as you cannot pick any normal skins for MP, I think the 2 skins are normally buyable ones at the expensive end of the scale.

With regards to the double cash, it is confusing. It is only for kills. Medals give you the same as before. It is the kills "score" (the one that goes into 1000's. So if yesterday getting 26,000 points got you $5,000, at the end of the round/map, today it will get you $10,000. Depending on your playing style, you may find you were getting more money per round for medals, in which case you will not notice the double for kills, as much.

Edit: Useful threads with info on the 3 player modes:

Wow, Crushing is beginning to annoy me no end, up to the Siege chapter now but if you even lose sight of one enemy he shoots 3 rounds and I am dead again.
 
Just played some Deathmatch, double cash weekend is working :) Generally I suck at deathmatch modes in most games, but even I can earn a fair bit of cash this weekend:

(yeah my team lost and I died almost as much as I killed people, but $12,000 cash in about 10 mins is not bad).

OR play Gold rush with me and stellasuppa :

Don't think I have enjoyed ranking up and stuff in a game this much since Resistance 2.

Still not got the foggiest how this double weekend is working its taking longer to figure out how to score high than enjoying the mp side of the game .:confused:
surely naughty dog no they have left us hanging with this one will have to try some more death match tomorrow to see if my scoring is better on that for the time im on .
 
Has anybody suffered the quitting penalty that comes with the new update?
Quit once and you can't play for 30 seconds.Quit twice and you receive a $40k penalty:eek:
The downside being this penalty also affects you if you have connection issues.
I know quitting was a problem but punishing somebody because they got disconnected is really not fair.Even if the system tells you that you got disconnected you'll still be punished.
