flameboy Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 Yeah, I think you've nailed it. I love that switch, when something isn't working so you try something a little crazy and you pull it off. My friend got a copy today. I would be ridiculously jealous but we've still got the multiplayer until Monday(?) and I'm having too much fun. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong but is there a way to clearly direct between rolling and sticking to cover? Because sometimes in hectic situations I want to roll but I stick and vice versa. Also, one issue I think they need to fix is prioritising picking up grenades and the idol over guns when pressing Triangle. A couple times everything is on top of each other and instead of throwing a grenade back I pick up some lame ass gun. I thought it was just me who had the problem with rolling and sticking to cover but obviously not! Glad to see so many people looking up for multiplayer lots of sessions FTW!
Guy Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 I had a marathon session of this on the campaign last night. Absolutely stunning game, cinematic as hell with some truly awesome moments and performances so far. I'm around 61% through the experience and although things have a slow start, the WHOAs and revelations are coming in thick and fast. I think I prefer Uncharted 2 to 3 so far, but this latest adventure is about as good as a sequel to Uncharted 2 I could expect. Controls seem a little more fussy now, with the scheme not lending itself so well to tight indoor spaces. Firefights are also more frustrating, with enemy AI darting around everywhere making themselves freaking hard to headshot. Gonna be working for that trophy... Victor Sullivan remains the best thing about this series, with Drake evolving into an actual character this time around. Can't wait to get back from work to keep playing this evening. If that doesn't speak for the quality of this experience, I dunno what does.
Shorty Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 I know some Dutch people are already picking this up from the shops, damn them! Still, ShopTo have provided me with a rather needless-yet-strangely-reassuring photo of my copy all packaged up.Ah I got an email from ShopTo about that not long ago. They've further automated their picking and packing process, added those photos and they can ship 24hrs a day, 365 days a year.
S.C.G Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 Ah I got an email from ShopTo about that not long ago. They've further automated their picking and packing process, added those photos and they can ship 24hrs a day, 365 days a year. This is why I love ShopTo... I can't wait until Uncharted 3 arrives, it'll be literally the first - and possibly last - PS3 game that I buy this year which is ok by me because I plan to get a lot of enjoyment out of it. Out of the few PS3 games I own the Uncharted titles have been games that I play from start to finish without fail, I even dabbled in the multiplayer of the second for a little bit and found it to be enjoyable but never got 'seriously' into it... but if the multiplayer is even better in the third entry - which it blatantly is going by some of your comments - then I'll certainly be up for joining a few games every now and then. Just gotta get myself a decent headset... the official one is good I take it?

Only issue I currently have is the battery doesn't seem to last anywhere near as long as it once did.
Cube Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 Can someone explain how best to use the punches in this? It seems so random at times. One time I grenades someone enough so he was crouched for a bit, I shot him a bit then punched him. Didn't kill him. He punched me and I died straight away.
bryanee Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 I got two despatched emails from shoto today both with lovely pics of my packagae, also got two texts. Talk about cock tease.
Cube Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 I got two despatched emails from shoto today both with lovely pics of my packagae, also got two texts. Talk about cock tease. You think that's bad? Game sent me an email telling me that they've dispatched Uncharted 3 and Mass Effect 3.
bryanee Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 Jesus Mass Effect 3 lol Do let us know how it is as my hype for that game is very high.
ReZourceman Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 Yeah I was chuffed to see ShopTo had despatched and then lulled that GameStop have too, which (if they arrive together) renders my standard edition purchase un-needed. :p
Cube Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Anyone up for some online killing today? Name your time. I'm free all day.
Daft Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Awesome. Remember the time change and all that. So basically see y'all in 1hr and 20 mins.
flameboy Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Wait what time is it now? When is this meganess happening?
Cube Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Wait what time is it now? When is this meganess happening? It's happening right now.
flameboy Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 It's happening right now. Ok I will be on in 8 mins just watching an episode of summit.
Daft Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Some awesome games today. Really starting to get the hang of a lot of things. I guess the non-disc multiplayer stops working on Tuesday because of the American release. Anyone know when for sure?

I just think everyone assumed this would be case...it's a shame love having the game just on there, so can really quickly dip in and out. Yeah awesome games earlier, look forward to many nights of Uncharted fun!
Cube Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 I just reached level 35, so I'm ready for the proper game.
Guy Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Some obscure review site hit Uncharted 3 with a C rating. Metacritic score has suffered considerable damage and the tear wave from Neogaf fanboys is slowly engulfing the entire Internet. Gotta love AAA title review time.
heroicjanitor Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Yeah but they did it for hits :p Their U2 review was a 10, and in their latest review they say "if U2 was dated, this is archaic".
ReZourceman Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Fuck it, I'm opening my own review site and giving it 200% to bring it back up.
