If you're at all into sniping I suggest the bolt sniper, helps me to blow off steam anyways (and heads). It's definitely good for quick scoping, but not in the exploitative MW2 sense. You still have to aim it as ND actually did the smart thing and disabled the aim assist for snipers (which isn't needed anyways). Use power hunter to find where it spawns. It'll be there ever 5 minutes after it's picked up (way to slow IMO).
I appreciate the advice, but I can't snipe for jack on any game against a human opponent. It's to stationary a play style for me anyway. I'm a bit annoyed by the one hit kills I do receive occasionally, but if they're legit headshots, then I have nothing to complain about. Just need to zig zag a bit more when I run.
geez, why did I have to leave a TV and my PS3 at home while I'm at camp?!?! Oh yeah, that's right-the camp would have confiscated them! lol
Hope you are all having fun in the beta, wish I was enjoying it with the rest of you, oh well, guess I'll watch Raist's beta videos to get a feel for it lol
Static, stop raging yo! LOLZ. That shit was hilarious. It's oooookaaaaay!
(-_-)
God that was so horrible. rofl. Got an unlucky but almost managed to come back. stupid pistole dude. I can't stand HC now. Can't steel fist worth a crap because they reduce the melee damage to 49. So now you're standing there just shooting and then melee and he just stands there takes it. I ain't playing hardcore no more :/
I've heard the 14th (someone please tell me that it goes for longer!)...

Duuuuuuude! That's one of the exact things that makes HC so goddamn awesome! It means that you have aim for an extended amount of time. I means that *panic* melee's have no worth. Awesome!

I'm going to be back the 10th, that leaves me with a total of 5 days if I play everyday.
I've deleted the beta from my PS3 and I've decided to not give ND another cent from my pockets. Seriously, they knew about the major problems of Uncharted 2, yet I still see them in the beta, and new ones are being added to the list. They are changing the game into something I strongly dislike.
I have no problem doing well in the beta, yet I am not having fun at all. Tried Uncharted 2 today, same deal. I can pull off great scores yet the bullshit is too much.
If you want people to buy your products, shouldn't you listen to the customers? Far too many times have i witnessed game developers giving their fans the finger and do as they please. If you guys enjoy the games, good for you. Myself, I've had it with this crap and got better things to spend my time on.
Thanks for the games though, I hope to game it up with you in another game someday and of course I'll still be here on 6th

Wow, Reo. I'm surprised you have a change of heart so quickly. Have you not liked it the entire time.

I have to disagree with this. Most of the problems are new ones (the new melee system, the Double Damage Power Play, some nitpicks about Treasures), with bad matchmaking and lag being almost nonexistent in my experience.

I don't know; I disagree with some of the changes, too, but if you think that they've altered the Uncharted experience into something unrecognizable, you haven't seen a truly [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]. The core mechanics are all still there, and it still feels like Uncharted.

Catering to the fans is exactly what turned Uncharted 2 to crap back in the day. They cut players' health and nerfed Situational and tried to fix matchmaking only to break it further. They can make all the bad decisions they want but I would much rather have a bad concept be well-executed than ideas from the fans implemented on a whim just to avoid complaints.

Same here, man, I'll see you around. I hope you give Drake's Deception another chance this November - just rent it for the single player, even, since that's a must-play even without the online. But in any case, hope to see you around.
Matt, I've expressed my doubt in some of my previous posts. Sure it got better for a while, COMPARED to my initial reaction to the beta. But still, it was never a GOOD experience for me.
Fawlty, right now I have no idea, I am looking into trying my luck in a FPS game, but not sure which one I wanna give a serious go. Black Ops LOOKS like fun, but I hear that game has it's fair share of bs too.
Overall, I am not finding any game THAT interesting, at least not if I just focus on the MP aspect.
I've missed out on a couple of fine games due to being hooked on Uncharted for so long.
Batman, God of War 3 and FF XIII are just a few games I wanna check out a bit more.
But hey, I do wanna game it up with you guys every now and then as well, so please feel free to recommend me some games

A few things I'm still seeing is the major lag, spawns from hell, melee being far too powerful, SA and more.

I disagree, the core mechanics are gone, the game has the same flaws as earlier, only now they ditched the flawless controls for something more Gears of War-like.

Nope, the poll they had clearly showed that the majority disliked the new health system or simply wanted it to be in a separate playlist. ND didn't care though and changed the very core of their MP. Now, instead of listening to the fans that stuck with it, they bended to the needs of the newer players who thought that Uncharted should be more like the other games they play, hence why we now have a mashup of many different titles that in the end looks like a mediocre rip-off.

Oh, I will play the SP, I'll most likely borrow it from a friend, but as I said, I am not supporting ND no more and I shall give them no more coins in their pockets.

I get where you're coming from, but now its kinda annoying to have some noob come up. Punch you, and then you can't do shit because of the nerfed blindfire. They basically win now with double melee because you can't do steel fist reliably in that gamemode.

*shudders* You might want to stay away from BLOPS. I don't know--just not feeling what Treyarch made. There's too much shit wrong w/ the game, IMO.
Might I suggest Crysis 2? Hehe. I love that game, but the lag can get to people. I don't really have a problem with it, as I've kind of adapted. And no, I am almost NEVER host. (>_<)

It's just a different timing, man! Don't give up on the mode that easily. (^_-)d Give it another honest go & see what you can do. I just really feel that people would love the mode if they really gave it a chance!
I talk about my love for the mode in my newest commentary:
To me the game doesn't feel like uncharted, turtle. The movement is very slow, the climbing mechanics are broken (especially on the plane segment), guns recoil downwards an equal amounts as they do other directions for some unknown reason, I guess ND knows a lot about guns, and the power plays make me not want to play with you guys, and I will always want to play with you all. It was a blast partying up with you all in U2 but I regret it every time in the beta because of power plays.
I know it's a beta and believe me if ND wasn't so hard on the ban hammer I'd post this stuff on their forums as well as here but it helps to get this stuff off one's chest.
Reo, have you considered inFAMOUS 2? I'm thinking about getting it. By the looks of Turtle's review it's pretty good.

Just got to 17. New gun is a huge improvement. Lag is still murder though. Far too many trades that shouldn't be (I'm sure for them as well as me) and too many two shot kills as well.
