Try the following:

1. On the XMB go to the “Game” icon
2. Press up until you have “Game Data Utility” highlighted and press ‘X’
3. Select the data that says something like Uncharted 2 1.07 and hit “TRIANGLE” and delete it
4. Select the data that only says Uncharted 2 and hit “TRIANGLE” and delete that
5. Whatever you do, don’t be tempted to delete the data under the “Save Game Utility”!!
6. Launch Uncharted 2, connect to multiplayer and let it download and install all the Title Updates (this will take a little while at this point)
7. Exit back out to the XMB, go to your PSN download history and redownload all your previous DLC (paid and unpaid DLC)

See if that helps.

I’m amazed about the grenade is STILL staying as it is now.....come on ND at least fix that since the FAL is unusable...... anyway… yay for double cash…

And what about that rumored single-player DLC? Is that possible or not gonna happen?.... I must know.....

Posted by: uliquria on 04-23-2010

Do you know how to read? It says double cash weekend. So its only for this weekend. Its not going to stay 150k. The cap is always going to be 50k per match. I do not know why players between lvl52 and 57 have to complain about the money cap. Leveling between those levels are not suppose to be quick and easy, it is suppose to be long and hard to lvl up in your 50’s so get over it, ME AND OTHER OLD PLAYERS THAT SPEND TIME PLAYING THIS GAME GOT LEVEL 60 with the 50k per match. Sure it is long and stressful with the 50k cap, but I did it and so can you.

Posted by: Vrals597 on 04-24-2010

Technically it is not double because 150k is three times as much as 50k, sorry for the political correctness but also I totally hear where you are coming from, I’m lvl 56 and got of my way from 51-56 with the 50k max, I am pretty sure that if it only for this weekend they would say it before the end date, not after it

Posted by: Spiderrlegs on 04-24-2010

lol i could be wrong but if the caps still 50k then if its 150k for this weekend it’d be triple cash or maybe the new cap is 75k. also reading skills have nothing to do with it, it does not clearly say anywhere that it’s just for this weekend.

hey arne can you please answer this question
kay so i bought the siege pack as soon as it came out and i still havent even gotten to play on the maps yet! I know lots of people have it because i see them using the new skins ALL the time. But still when you select dlc and you have both map packs it searches for both types of players, those who have drakes fortune pack, and those who have siege pack. So if i find 9 people who have siege and one who has JUST drakes fortune it screws it over for the entire group! The odds of me ever even being able to play on these maps have obviously become very slim, and i payed for the content. So i was wondering if you could make the matchmaking selection more like this

1) default
2) all DLC
3) just drakes fortune pack
4) just siege pack

I hope you and the rest of ND can give this some thought

Posted by: Culpy3 on 04-25-2010

Yeah Arne. I recently bought UC2 and the two map packs. I’ve been playing MP for 2 weeks now and have not played a single DLC map. Why? Why did you make me pay for something I never get to use? If you can’t do anything about it then I’d at least like a refund. What gives?

Posted by: Hi-Tech-Hate on 04-23-2010

hey arnie, are you guys just trying to alienate your fanbase? How about giving something to the people who actually earned their rank instead of trying to make the game more COD friendly. Why don’t you think people should put in the effort to achieve a high rank? Are the veterans going to get compensated or are we expected to just accept that ND just cares about the monetary aspect and doesn’t care about us whatsoever?why bother having a ranking systen if it doesn’t mean anything. It seems that you people are putting all your efforts in new business, and forgetting about who it was that made the game so popular. You always seem to give the newcomers the benefits so how about something for us? You gave away the sacred level 60 with so many cash weekends( cuz popularity was declining) and now you’re giving away our skeleton. Again, what can you offer to say you care about us veterans aside from a resounding “No, we don’t care”

Posted by: J2534891 on 04-23-2010

yes a veteran that “earned” levels by getting cheap kills inside glitches. why don’t you just let people enjoy the game whether they be hardcore or casual players. with the stunts you pull off its not like they will catch up to your precious stats anyways. ps i’m glad i haven’t played with or against you lately cause i hate players who glitch. so yes i do hate you Hi-Tech-Hate.

Posted by: Hi-Tech-Hate on 04-24-2010

a video of me glitching b4 I was a 60...anyone???? I didn’t think so. So why even bother? I’d setle for a video of anything besides a sniper match. If all you wanna do is name call and act like children then come to my door and I’ll show you how I dicipline children. It must be nice 4 you to be able to throw out insults and accusations and not have someone beat the piss outta you. Oh yeah...the post was directed to arnie, yet you reply like you’re someone special? I assume the only response to this will be a bunch of name calling with no balls to back it up so why bother,

Posted by: Romasanta_mc on 04-24-2010

People who play for the actual love of the game are behind 1.04 not bitch ass losers who’s losing their ranking. Yeah everyone at one point or another glitched for a few laughs the problem is you frequenty did it to climb the ranks.

I don’t even know why ND doesn’t ban people like you.

Posted by: shaner31575 on 04-25-2010

The video of you cheating hi-tech-hate is on U-Tube. I just saw it just look up “uncharted 2 cheaters” on U Tube AND U ARE ON THE VIDEO CHEATING.

You should kicked of the planet CHEATER

At the least you should be banned from Uncharted all together

At the least you should be banned from

Posted by: Spiderrlegs on 04-24-2010

is “veteran” your translation for no-life loser? because the people with a life will never reach 60million with a 50k cap. i agree you earned that skeleton and the new ones don’t even relate to the game but c’mon you’re 60 now so play another game and shutup.

Posted by: Hochemo14 on 04-23-2010

I know it might be a bit too unresearched, but I can honestly say The Highrise, and The Museum are 2 of the best maps I’ve played. Yes, ever. But, Glowzor and Platzor are two of the most hideous costumes I’ve seen. Sorry, but it’s just bad.

On another note, A new update should be released that renders the map right as you spawn, because the textures are very blurry when you jump in. Just a bit of advice.

Posted by: PhantomOfPanton on 04-23-2010

Im a 42 from skill, hopefully DC weekend will boost of my rank quick! Never played it before!

Game is beast, DLC...well, best DLC I ever bought! Love this game, I bought eye of Indra just for the skins!

Posted by: PhantomOfPanton on 04-23-2010

Not the games fault, but Siege mode is pissing me off...people don’t care about their team mates at all. They just want points, which is lame, they don’t even seem to want to have fun, they just want to level up.

They keep stealing my kills, its really annoying, its not like that in survival.

Posted by: IRONMAN357THEGOD on 04-24-2010

ND you have my fullest support on uncharted. Ive been a hardcore gamer (for 15 years) and i can tell you though UnC2 isnt perfect it is damn close.
Do not listen to these whining brats about going back to 1.04 because these are the people that play COD and want everything to be like it. You keep progressing as more updates come out and im greatful. BTW TO STUPID PSN USERS, UnC2 DOESNT LAG THAT IS YOU. It doesnt used dedicate servers so stop complaining about your own faults.

The only thing you should fix is the rendering issues on characters (ex: sev) and some level props. Other than that keep up the great work for us gamers who dont suck at games and complain.

Posted by: WANDERER_UNDEAD on 04-24-2010

@ IRONMAN357THEGOD:

Ironman the one’s who are “whining” are not COD players they are straight uncharted fans and they were complaining because of spawn system which is fixed now. I’m sure now all of them are enjoying the 1.07 and i believe it’s greatest update after 1.04. ( i was a fan of 1.04 but not anymore).

Now considering the “lag” issue which you are not understanding it or you haven’t actually got hit by a dead body or while you were covering and getting shot through the wall. Since you are a level 52 it’s hard for me to believe that you are not understanding the lag.(I have no intention of offending you so don’t be upset)

the only thing that ND should fix now is booster glitching, map glitching, increase grenades’ radius and when two people shot each other; the one who died first should die and not freakn smack the other guy while he is dropped dead.

I played again for 6 hours today it was perfect nearly all maps tested (no freakn next to opponent respawns). Especially Highrise and Museum being big are extremely important which increases the fun factor of the game by 100%.

this game is going towards to be perfect keep up the work and add something for X’lVs this will encourage people to play the game and reach X while you keep your X levels happy and encourage them to play again and again.

1000000000000 times thanks for your great and awesome efforts on improving the quality of the game.

Posted by: frogs345 on 04-24-2010

Hey ND, do you think you could make it so that we can use all our multiplayer skins in singleplayer, and maybe vice versa? Also, how about making the golden guns get new ammo by picking up both normal versions of the guns and the golden versions?

Posted by: Culpy3 on 04-25-2010

Same here!! Come on Arne, please fix this! I love MP and would really like to play the extra maps I PAID FOR!! There has to be a way to fix this. Can we at least have the options of selecting which maps we want to be able to play and deselecting the ones we’re sick of.

Posted by: Koutetsu_Tatsu on 04-24-2010

That’s the second time I’ve heard “Heist Chloe” mentioned. At what point of the heist sequence do we see Chloe? She is audible via the ear piece but I don’t recall her being shown.

Nevertheless, she was part of the heist and was most likely dressed for the occasion… Perhaps like Catherine Zeta-Jones in “Entrapment”?

Posted by: Snake_16HP on 04-24-2010

heist chloe was shown in the cutscene called “night at the museum” its pretty much just chloe dressed all in black but it would be nice to have more uncharted based skins than these dumb skeletons and ones from OTHER ps3 games????

Posted by: Dark_rECOIL on 04-24-2010

Hello UC2 Fans & Arne,
I love this game even with all of the changes. I think that some changes need to be addressed. The spawning in(1.07) well done naughty dog its nice to not get shot from behind. I think tha a lot of in game problems are encountered 4 me when im in my own party(just me) in game, when i play with others in party i realy dont experance problems. One thing tha tgets my goat is the grenades or lack there of. Im pretty sure if you land a grenade next to a player with invalid it should kill them, this is not the case it seems to me that if they use the knock down perk w/ invalid grenades will not kill them can you please check into this. Other than the grenades being a little undered powered (i.e. If in coop arena when incountering an GAU dude it use to be 2 grenades at the feet would kill them now thats not the case 3-4 is the magic number). And to every one that is venting just remember that the only way to get better is to play with more challenges.
Have a nice Day,
Dark_rECOIL

NOW I NO IAM DONE WITH THIS GAME IT IS CLEAR WITH HOW BIG U MADE THE MAPS AND THE WAY U SET UP THE GUNS ALL U WANT IS PEOPLE TO CAMP ALL DAY THE MUSEUM IS ALL ABOUT SNIPING AND HIGHRISE HAS SOO MANY SPECIAL GUNS IN IT ITS LIKE WITH ALL THIS NEW SHIT U TOTALY MADE THE GAME FOR LITTLE KIDS CONGRATS ON LIVING UP TO COD MW2 STANDARDS ON 104 U NEEDED SKILL AND NOW U NEED A SPECIAL GUN U HAVE LOST ANOTHER FAITHFUL PLAYER UNCHARTED 2 IS NOW HOME FOR 10 AN 15 YEAR OLDS

Posted by: Zahlia02 on 04-24-2010

Take your chill pill.
I want to let you know that indeed the Museum is all about sniping, bit in a “skill” way. That makes it the only map where sniping is your central tactic. (I don’t count the Fort, because that isn’t all sniping).
And I just did a Highrise Plunder match and I totally loved it. You’ll need to be smart and fast too kill others. Thanks to all the difference in height the map offers a great deal off smart thinking. You’ll have to be a incompetend fool to just pick up the hammer and walk around aimlessly.

But this is to be expected from a level 25’er.
Also: CAPSLOCK IS FASTEST WAY TO COOLNESS. Dude.

Posted by: Tomas_Teigao on 04-24-2010

Posted by: IM-YOUR-GUY on 04-24-2010

Posted by: LaZZiBaoY on 04-24-2010

ND, I love you guys creating such an absolute game. This latest ‘siege’ pack is awesome especially the HIGHRISE map. But after a few games, I realise the Museum map just pop up once and I ain’t going to complain on it because that map is huge and it WAS BORING. I only played it on TDM. No idea yet maybe it would be fun on plunder but the point is; first, 5v5? Maybe u can amp it up to 6v6 or 8v8? More players would be fun.Also, it gets ted tedious to spot enemies in bigger maps, all i was thinking was, I just wanted Drake to shout COME GET SOME I M OVER HERE hence would it be cool for the characters to just shout out something? Its debatable (could be a trap/ambush). Bottom line is, could you make our characters to at least have a conversation during battles? Eg, when Drake and Eddy faces each other at gun point. Anyway, this is asking a lot. But it will definitely make every laugh during games. Peace

Posted by: much119 on 04-25-2010

Hey nd the maps are AMAZING,but could you do newest dlc because when i choose dlc rather than default most people don’t have the siege map packs i have only played on the highrise once. =( please change this from,Default,Dlc,New dlc

MORE GOOD IDEAS EH’?

Posted by: liamdaniels on 04-25-2010

Hey Arne,

I got some ideas for future DLC. Maybe you could release a ‘Playsation villians pack”? Also, I wouldn’t mind another free map like the fort, maybe as someone else mentioned it could be the tree of life map. I hope you support the game with alot of DLC, like LBP. Eventually I’ll buy them all. You could also do like, as an option, have music in the backround while online like in MGO, but make it so you could still eaisly hear gunshots far away. I hope your workin on the nades, I agree it wouldn’t work putting them back as they were in 1.04 because of how its changed, but they definatly need tweaking in the damage department.

Posted by: Devante_Deon on 04-25-2010

ARNE A FEW IDEAS....
FIRST OFF LOVE THE NEW MAPS AND SKINS AND SIEGE IS AWESOME I LOVE IT.
BUT IDEAS:

SKINS:HEIST CHLOE UDF SULLY WINTER SULLY BASEBALL RIKA, NAUGHTYDOG DRAKE, NO MORE SKELETONS

MAYBE YOU CAN EVEN GIVE US SOME VILLAIN FEMALE SKINS BECAUSE IT MAKES NO SENSE THAT WE HAVE SO MANY HERO SKINS BUT NOT AS MANY VILLAINS

ALSO MAKE EVERYONES CLOTHES GET WET ESPECIALLY WETSUIT DRAKE I MEAN HE HAS A WETSUIT ON FOR CHRIST SAKE

MAPS: BORNEO, TRAIN YARD, TREE OF LIFE,

AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST YOU SHOULD MAKE A NEW CO-OP MISSION ONE THAT REVOLVES AROUND DRAKES FORTUNE AND MAYBE IT CAN BE PINKERTONS MANSION

ALSO IS IT POSSIBLE TO MAKE DRAKE HAVE DUEL PISTOL WIELD FOR U3 JUS TO ADD SOME FLAVA TO IT

Posted by: philo32b on 04-25-2010

ND, Uncharted 2 and all the DLC are incredible. My worry is about a growing trend that may have an impact on how big your customer base is. More and more, I see clans of 3 or 4 very highly-ranked players (V+ usually, with a 40+ thrown in) matched up with players who are level 1-40. The clan of highly-ranked players get some fun from absolutely destroying the lower-ranked players in completely mismatched teams. These highly-ranked players are usually very good, all on one team, and work together cohesively as a team. The problem is that lower- to mid-level players have no chance in these situations and may get discouraged and stop playing. It is a growing frustration for me to become much too intimate with the respawn areas because I am getting 4 or 5 times as many deaths as kills, when I normally average much better. Once in a long while, someone on my team can do 20 kills and upset the highly-ranked clan, but 9 times out of 10 it is just a complete slam on the non-elite team. If this trend continues, it may limit the customer base that keeps playing and purchasing DLC products. I can understand the appeal for friends to play together, but maybe there should be a way to neutralize the great advantage they have, such as discounting their cash bonus at the end, making the non-elite team 150% stronger in stamina, or limited them to only 3 or 5 players. I want your business to be as successful as possible with Uncharted 2 because it is an amazing product and it is great for both you and the players for it to be profitable to continue to develope DLC for a long time. Thanks for such a great game!
