    Does anyone on the list still hop into multiplayer? I'm wondering if I should update the OP. I get the occasional request to add someone (like today) and feel bad sticking them on a dead list.

    That heroes and villains pack came out with the Infamous/Resistance/Killzone Skins.... picked it up just to check them out... they're ok, I guess, pack is rather pricey for what it is... you just have to watch out for Chimera now instead of Skeletons when playing against randoms :P

    5: Urban Warfare. I didn't bother playing to the end but I imagine it'll do so before any major spoilers.

    I really like the co-op part of multiplayer. How does this compare to the other co-op games that have been released, like the Army of Two games and RE5?

    New DLC Announced
    February 12, 2010 - Who is ready to get shot in the face like it's 2007 all over again? Yes, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is about to get a booster shot of multiplayer content, and it's all themed around Uncharted: Among Thieves. Multiplayer maps, skins, PlayStation Network Trophies, and medals are all on their way to Nathan Drake's latest adventure on Feb. 25, 2010.

    Justin Richmond, Naughty Dog multiplayer designer, said that the team began working on the massive update as soon as they finished up the first game and the focus on head-to-head battles is no accident.

    "One of the things that we wanted to make sure at launch was that anybody could get the platinum," Richmond said to the initial lack of multiplayer Trophies.

    Indeed, the dozen upcoming Trophies are meant to reward those who love getting their Wes handguns wet in battle – although it should be pointed out that the Trophies aren't backwards compatible, so only your stats from Feb. 25th on will count. Naughty Dog had a few ideas for the Trophies and medals it wanted, but the company also tossed in nods to the stuff it saw players doing in the game and commenting on around the Internet -- the Trophy for killing a guy as he's about to nab the treasure in Plunder is basically user-created.

    So, just what are the new Trophies?

    Sneaky... - Get 50 Stealth Kills

    Brass Knuckles - Get 100 Melee Kills

    Tastes Like Chicken - Get 20 BBQ Medals

    Rapid Fire - Get 7 Tripled Medals in Deathmatch

    I Told You I Was Hardcore! - Complete All 3 Co-op Objective Maps on Hard Difficulty

    Made It - Finish Wave 10 in one Survival Game

    Gold Digger - Finish Wave 10 in one Gold Rush Game

    Wipe Them Out... - Win 50 Deathmatch Games

    Plays Well With Others - Win 50 Objective Games

    Still Alive - Win 50 Elimination Games

    Plundered! - Get 200 Captured Medals

    Cold Blooded - Get 2,500 Kills in Deathmatch or Elimination games

    On top of that, the game's getting 12 in-game multiplayer medals:

    Tip Off – Be the First Player to Grab the Treasure in Plunder

    Protectorate – Shoot and Kill 5 Enemies that were Damaging the Treasure Carrier

    No Cigar – Kill the Treasure Carrier while They are about to Score

    None Shall Pass – Get 5 Kills while in the Hill during a King of the Hill

    First! – Get the First Kill of the Game

    Finish Him! – Get the Last Kill of the Game

    Retaliation – Kill the Last Player that Killed You

    Defender – Kill a Player that is Actively Shooting One of Your Teammates

    That Was Embarrassing – Earn a Shutout in Plunder

    Put'em Down – Kill Someone in the Knockdown State with a Pistol Weapon

    Unlucky – Die 5 Times in a Row without Getting a Kill

    Tricky – Kill a Player with a Pistol Weapon while Hanging

    As if all that wasn't awesome enough, Feb. 25th is bringing six multiplayer skins from the original Uncharted (Drake, Elena, Atoq Navarro, Eddie Raja, Gabriel Roman and the enemy pirate Javier) along with two new maps inspired by the original game. The Sunken Ruins is set during a lightning storm around the customs house from Drake's Fortune. As rain pours down, you'll crisscross a V-shaped map and dole out the damage. The Facility is the submarine pens from the first game – look for a rusted out U-boat in the front of the map and a bunch of cranes moving boxes around to block your perfect headshots.


    All of this content is coming to you for a pretty fair price. You can get everything in one bundle for $5.99 or the skins for $2.99 and the maps for $3.99. Although the content is coming to Australia and the United Kingdom, prices and dates weren't announced.
    Source

    Trailer here



    5.99 for 2 maps and 6 skins isn't too bad. I'll probably get it.


    Edit: Hah, apparently Darth_Mogs beat me even though I thought I fished this from page 4 or 5 :p

    The co-op is really fun, but I had to stop when I couldn't party up with my friend. Turns out my modem/router from Verizon doesn't support UPnP, ergo no partying up.

    Are you saying you've never Sync'd up your trophies? Because you may not have to re-earn all of your trophies again...

    I don't know what to think of this patch yet. I've had the annoying tendency to get hit, duck back into cover and fucking die a second later anyway. I don't know if that's my back clearing an inch over the wall that the asshole can shoot, or the lag is fucking with me and I was already dead before I ducked back down. Either way the extra health prepatch would've saved me. It's also a lot easier to down people running around so I'm torn.
    Also, the amount of tardbox map exploiters is infuriating.

    No, I got my trophies back the next day when i logged back onto my account, so, no worries, at the time of that post, i didn't know I'd get them back.
    So. Uncharted 2 is awesome. :P

    Eh, that would just be beating Uncharted and Uncharted 2 on crushing, about simultaneously.
    And both games are blindingly easy now that I've beaten them so many times, so, not gonna have any troubles.
    Its a small setback.

    Awww, it seems old replays don't work. I was planning on watching my plunder game where I had a kdr greater than 1 and captured the treasure to cheer me up after reverting to suck again.

    The dragonov is now bullshit since it's now an AWP.

    Other than the Dragonov being 1-shot-1-kill, and the FAL getting a power upgrade, can anyone else figure out what weapon tweaks they made on the last patch?

    Had the 2 worst coop sessions ever yesterday. One guy was so incompetent he dragged us down in Sanctuary and we couldn't finish the last battle in the courtyard. At the end it was revealed I killed 90 guys, the other guy 57 and he only managed to kill 12. Also, it took him years to activate the checkpoints.

    The other game this silly douche kept nading us and sabotaged the game. Big fucking surprise his PSN name was a pot reference.

    I haven't really noticed weapon tweaks it seems it's more like players have less health and limb shots do as much damage as body shots now.

    I hope Eddy Raja says his iconic "I KILL YOU DRAKE!" whenever he gets shot in multiplayer matches, when your his skin.

    Why do they always
    kill off the most lovable characters? Raja and Flynn teaming up as a passive-aggressive douchebag rival band of treasure hunters trying to beat Drake to the punch would be a wonderful game, but noooo, they both have to get killed off.

    Hehe, if you saw the cast interviews,
    Steve Valentine is jokingly talking about how the "great" writers on the UC team can get Flynn alive again somehow for UC3: Flynn's Revenge. Then Richard McGonagle says "No no, Uncharted 3: Sullivan's Folly.

    I prefer the second one, personally. I was playing Just Cause today and I think Sully is in that too!

    MAG has consumed me but I still take turns with the better half playing Uncharted online. I've only had a turn playing the new Facility map but I'd say they were worth the price of admission. I don't think I'll ever pay for more costumes/skins though.

    I think the only part that I felt was from the first one was all the way in the beginning when you were getting the notes from the camp and wave after wave of guys came down. Other then that, I was always enthralled. Def. lots of combat at the end and less set pieces, but I was so good at combat by then I just found it to be fun.

    Infact, during one of the last fights I found out you can run, slide and punch a guy in the balls. That was AWESOME.

    I missed 70 treasures. :-(

    I'm def. gonna be playing through again and again. And try to mix it up, use the shotgun and mroe melee and such. Jsut make it harder on myself. And get some [Strike]achievements[/Strike] trophies.
