Ashley Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Oh God this. This is everything I've wanted to say about other things in the past: http://www.videogamer.com/ps4/uncharted_4/features/article/uncharted_4_review_an_apology.html
Tales Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Stupid day 1 update >_>, totally forgot about that in my excitement as I was on my way home with the game.
Happenstance Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 I do hate Day One patches that are adding in features. I dont want to have to download 5 gigs on a slow connection because they decided to not include the multiplayer or photo mode etc on the disc.
dwarf Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 My copy was only dispatched this morning, so I'm not even able to delight in the update screen. #pray4dwarf
S.C.G Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Game get, 5GB day one patch installed, ready to go! Time to play my PS4 again!
nekunando Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Oh God this. This is everything I've wanted to say about other things in the past: http://www.videogamer.com/ps4/uncharted_4/features/article/uncharted_4_review_an_apology.html I can only imagine the hate if I'd reviewed certain games over the years As for the 5GB update, I'd be lucky if I was playing the game by the end of the week with something like that
drahkon Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Can't you play the SP while downloading the patch that adds MP?
Tales Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Sure you can, but I don't know what the patch fixes for the single player, which is why I waited. Anyway, only took 30 minutes for me, so I'm already well into the game. Been great so far as expected.
Cookyman Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 I bought the digital copy. Game was downloaded a couple of days ago all patches were downloaded yesterday at some point. All very painless so I was able to play from midnight - too bad I was working today so only played until the opening credits but already loving it.
Jimbob Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 (edited) Finished Uncharted 3 earlier, now moving onto Uncharted 4. Looks blooming fantastic. Edit: And some screenshots (spoiler tagged) Edited May 10, 2016 by Jimbob
Nolan Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Oh God this. This is everything I've wanted to say about other things in the past: http://www.videogamer.com/ps4/uncharted_4/features/article/uncharted_4_review_an_apology.html Jim Sterling did a similar thing. http://www.thejimquisition.com/quantum-break-is-blatantly-better-than-uncharted-4/ Since some people flipped shit that he could possible give two games the same numerical score. And today he published a review for Battleborn with the same score and in italics a note saying it's exactly as good as Uncharted 4. I find it refreshing.
dazzybee Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Amazon let me down again with preordering a game... never again. Says delivery date friday...
Happenstance Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 I need to check if SimplyGames guarantee release day delivery as my copy didn't come today.
dwarf Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Amazon let me down again with preordering a game... never again. Says delivery date friday... They've done me over too, but usually they have conservative estimates, so hopefully it arrives tomorrow.
Cookyman Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Only up to chapter 5 on single player. Been playing the shit out of multiplayer however and it's fabulous. So much customisation!
Sheikah Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Jim Sterling did a similar thing. http://www.thejimquisition.com/quantum-break-is-blatantly-better-than-uncharted-4/Since some people flipped shit that he could possible give two games the same numerical score. And today he published a review for Battleborn with the same score and in italics a note saying it's exactly as good as Uncharted 4. I find it refreshing. Amazing. Best bit: There is no greater measure of a game’s objective quality than a review score. We all know this. Publishers hinge money on review scores, and NeoGAF posters stake the success of their personal growth as human beings on numeral validation. With this in mind, we must conclude that Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End, sporting a measly 8.5 on popular website The Jimquisition Dot Com, is an utter disappointment. A fun poke at review scoring in general, the people who hinge off scores and why I think it's usually detrimental to have them in a review. In other news, I just bought Uncharted 4 for 32 quid off Amazon, being delivered within a 2-hour window that I selected tomorrow. Link here with the promo code for those interested.
Hero-of-Time Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 I didn't get as much played on this yesterday as I was hoping for. By the time I got in from work, went to the gym and downloaded the patch it was around 7pm. Then the footy was on at 8. Anyway, i've enjoyed what i've seen of the game so far. The graphics and animations are stunning. Absolutely stunning. When i'm watching the cutscenes i'm left wondering just how the hell they have pulled this off. I adored this chapter. Looking through all the artifacts from the old games, seeing Nate in a normal life, talking with Elena and finally playing Crash Bandicoot were all awesome scenes. The latter of those scenes really had me in stitches. "He's a fox with jeans?" "Why is he stealing fruit?" "He should have just climbed out of the pit. I would have just climbed out the pit." Hilarious stuff. You finished it yet, @Tales? I think you were on it the best part of the day.
Tales Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 (edited) You finished it yet, @Tales? I think you were on it the best part of the day. Yeah, I took the day off for the game, so I got to play nearly 10 hours straight on the single player. Still only on chapter 12 though, I'm trying to explore as much of it myself. Have found about 2/3 of the treasures. Loved chapter 4 myself too. I almost felt sad for him when he started the fake battle with the toy gun :p How he misses his old life... Yeah the Crash Bandicat part was hilarious. You even had to use the analog buttons :p Edited May 11, 2016 by Tales
drahkon Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 (edited) I bought it : peace: Patch is downloading, I'm having lunch now and can't wait to boot this up. Edit: Just got all the multiplayer trophies. Now I'm ready for the singleplayer. Edit²: This was me during the prologue and chapters 1+2: This game is absolutely beautiful...case in point: Yes, I love photo mode Everything is stunning. Graphics, sound, atmosphere, gameplay...Naughty Dog did it again. And I'm only at chapter 3 Edited May 11, 2016 by drahkon
Happenstance Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 My copy arrived today. For some reason SimplyGames sent me the steelbook version.
Blade Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 Been playing some of this as I had half a day at work. Played some multiplayer for starters. Only did 3 games, i'm utter shite but I dod enjoy it. I need to get involved more in the multiplayer. I've only done the prologue, 1 and part way through 2. I wish I wasn't seeing the girlfriend this evening so I could continue to play this! Haha! Its such a beautiful looking game and is full of the uncharted gameplay that I became familiar with after playing the collection. Yeah I can see myself fully enjoying this game.
drahkon Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 (edited) OH MY GOD. I had a grin on my face for the whole thing Edit: Reached Chapter 10. Can't believe how good this is. Depending on how many chapters there are, I might finish this tomorrow. Playing this on hard for my first playthrough. It's not that difficult. Died a couple of times due to idiocy, but mostly the firefights had a positive outcome for me. They were intense and incredibly fun Loving the stealth. It's much better than in the previous games, mainly due to the almost open-world nature of the levels. Edited May 12, 2016 by drahkon
Babooo Posted May 12, 2016 Posted May 12, 2016 Think I'm almost at the end of chapter 13. The presentation of this game is fantastic. It all just runs so smooth and the way cut scenes and gameplay combine is amazing. The graphics....omg. Definitely the best looking console game of this generation. My PS4's fans are constantly loud.
Fierce_LiNk Posted May 12, 2016 Posted May 12, 2016 Started this up yesterday. Hnnnnnngg. So gorgeous. Having a good time with it and am looking forward to playing it some more later.
