Hero-of-Time Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 IGN say that the third act is repetitive and drawn out. Visuals are stunning but the game lacks many stand out set pieces, which doesn't seem like an Uncharted game. Whereas the Gamespot review said it has the best set pieces in the series. I wonder which it will be?
Jimbob Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 Having a playthrough of Uncharted 3 this week, forgot i never played it. And luckily, got the whole of next week off. So between spending time with the Mrs, i'll be playing some Uncharted.
James Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 Strange. I wonder if they've sold out of their allocation. Just a heads up for those wanting to preorder with them, they've said that the game will not be shipping early and will only be posted on Monday. Ya, Got a reply back from them, all there allocation is gone
S.C.G Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 Ya, Got a reply back from them, all there allocation is gone If you pre-order from ShopTo there's a chance you'll have it tomorrow I think... http://www.shopto.net/video-games/ps4/PS4UN00-uncharted-4-a-thiefs-end-launch-edition Orders were starting to be processed from yesterday and I'm sure I had a dispatch e-mail already, granted it hasn't turned up today but Friday or Saturday is likely, they still seem to have plenty of stock too. : peace:
Jimbob Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 Had my order processing email earlier, don't mind if it doesn't arrive early (would be nice though)
Hero-of-Time Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 I only preordered mine this morning. For some reason I thought the game was 2 weeks away.
Happenstance Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 If you pre-order from ShopTo there's a chance you'll have it tomorrow I think... http://www.shopto.net/video-games/ps4/PS4UN00-uncharted-4-a-thiefs-end-launch-edition Orders were starting to be processed from yesterday and I'm sure I had a dispatch e-mail already, granted it hasn't turned up today but Friday or Saturday is likely, they still seem to have plenty of stock too. : peace: I would assume that if Simply Games are only getting their stock delivered Monday then that would be the same for all online sites. They've probably just started processing rather than dispatched. It wouldnt be the first time that ShopTo have claimed stuff has dispatched when it actually hadnt.

I think you're right in saying that the games haven't shipped yet. There's a message when you log in to your account saying that they aren't shipping the game until the weekend. So Monday will probably be the earliest people will get it. The launch of Uncharted 4 is just around the corner and if you have a pre-order with us we want to make sure you are as prepared as possible.Due to high demand we will begin processing/charging pre-orders from Wednesday May the 4th onwards in preparation for dispatch over the weekend before launch.
Kav Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 If I hadn't such a damn backlog I'd buy it, but it's going to have to wait!
Ronnie Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 IGN say that the third act is repetitive and drawn out. Visuals are stunning but the game lacks many stand out set pieces, which doesn't seem like an Uncharted game. Kinda Funny said the same thing, and they're huge Uncharted fans
Hero-of-Time Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 Kinda Funny said the same thing, and they're huge Uncharted fans Colin and Greg are just annoyed at the timed and accuracy trophies. They didn't seem happy about it on PS I Love You.
Sheikah Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 Kinda Funny said the same thing, and they're huge Uncharted fans With filter options like this, I expect nothing but a solid 10 from you. (Srs though, this is cool)
dazzybee Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 Bit bummed about the reviews. This is the principle reason I wanted a ps4, and I'm sure I'll love it and it'll be great, but I was hoping for knockout reviews. Hearing about the pacing being pretty bad and it feeling a little been there done that... I don't know. Im sure it'll be great. But batman got similar notes and that was disappointing... Though ended up still really liking it. Are there any reviews utterly creaming over it so I can get excited again.
drahkon Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 Came into this thread, now I'm seeing people talking about how reviewers are saying a couple of bad things about the game. *looks up scores* Lol, day one.
Hero-of-Time Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 Are there any reviews utterly creaming over it so I can get excited again. There's plenty of perfect score reviews kicking about. Check out the neogaf review thread. I've got a list of people on here who will no doubt not like the game for various reasons. Let's see if I'm correct.... Sony are giving this a great marketing push. I've seen the advert on TV about 6 times tonight and seen it twice at the cinema. This is how you promote your franchises.

But pretty fun to read. Giant bombs was good!

It's currently sitting on a 94 Metacritic rating. If this isn't good enough for those who allow reviews to influence their purchase then I dunno what the hell they want out of a game.

RedShell Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 Just started playing this, it's actually pretty terrible. The characters look nothing like how they did in the previous games, the puzzles are really basic, and there's no voice acting! Whoops! This isn't the Uncharted - Fortune Hunter thread, is it? Sorry. Actually, that's quite a cool little game. And you can earn rewards that transfer to Uncharted 4 with it. :awesome:
S.C.G Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 So did anyone get their copy from ShopTo yet? Mine didn't arrive, I thought it odd when they stated it had been sent last Wednesdays, they must have been just sending the e-mails in advance. Looks like it will be launch day for most of us then, I'm OK with that though so long as it turns up.
drahkon Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 (edited) I'll pick this up on Wednesday. Cannot freaking wait. I hope I'll be able to finish this by Friday because I probably won't have time to play over the weekend Digital Foundry Article I just read the verdict because I fear spoilers Uncharted 4 excels in presenting an unprecedented level of detail while actually expanding the core gameplay. Seeing both visuals and game design evolve and expand in one package is a rare treat indeed. With all the recent talk about the PlayStation Neo, Uncharted 4 demonstrates just how much can still be achieved on less powerful hardware. Sounds like the series ends with a true masterpiece.

ThePigMarcher Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 Started this on Saturday and I'm probably about mid-way through at the moment. I'll not say too much but so far it has been absolutely fantastic, solid pacing and the story telling/character interactions have been great, some decent set-pieces, stealth is actually viable this time (for the most part anyway), looks outstanding and is a little less linear than previous games. Dabbled with the multiplayer briefly this afternoon (as the servers only just went live) and just like in the beta, I'm absolutely terrible. Something about online shooters and me just don't get on, that said, I can see me spending a little more time on that side of things as there seems to be a fair amount of unlockables/upgrades etc.
Fierce_LiNk Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 My game should be getting here tomorrow. Not sure when I'll actually get around to playing it though...maybe Wednesday evening? Could be the weekend! Ahhhh. I'm going into every game with absolutely no expectations now and just hoping to be pleasantly surprised. Haven't really been following this closely so know next to nothing. Feels quite nice, actually.

I've seen the advert on TV about 6 times tonight and seen it twice at the cinema. This is how you promote your franchises. Am I on the list? You should probably put me on it. Though I am looking forward to playing it eventually. The open beta felt damn smooth, and aiming use to be one of my main complaints for the series.
