HA I STOPPED PLAYNG THIS GAME IT GOT REALLY BORING AFTER THE RANKING SYSTEM GOT CHANGED AND THE DUMB BOOSTERS IN THE GAME LIKE DOWN THE IRONS AND SITUATIONAL AWARENESS!!!!! ITS A SHAME CUS I WAS A REALLY GOOD PLAYER TO I WAS REALLY HIGH ON THE LEADERBOARDS AND HAD A 2.3 KIIL/DEATH RATIO I LEFT OFF AT LVL 65 BUT OH WELL I PLAY GEARS OF WAR NOW AND ITS ALOT MORE FUN!!!! I CANT WAIT TILL GEARS OF WAR 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I FEEL BAD CUS ONCE EVERYONE HITS LEVEL 80 ITS JUST GOIN TO GO UP TO LEVEL 100! OH WELL HAVE FUN EVERYONE WHO PLAYS THIS GAME!!

LMAO, Eskobar4, is a xbox fanboy, probobaly an 11 year old troll.

I like how he said “it got really boring after the ranking system got changed” yet he was a 65. He doesn’t even know what hes talking about. Don’t feed this troll.

Posted by: PhantomOfPanton on 10-20-2010

His ranking doesn’t really bother me, Gears of War and Uncharted are very very very different games.

Even though they have differences, you can still compare them. And the UC series destroys Gears of War. GOW is still a good series, but it has nothing on UC.

I agree that SA is cheap, but if you really are a 65, then you should be good enough to beat the people using it, you shouldn’t be complaining either; as that makes you look bad. I hate SA, but I don’t complain, its in the game and here to stay…

As for down the irons being cheap, its not cheap haha...its a boosters. Boosters BOOST certain skills. Obviously, if you can’t deal with perks, boosters, anything like that, then enjoy GOW on your xbox for however long you can, as you will be getting a RROD pretty soon. It is an xbox…

And for being mad about raising the lvl cap, well I’m glad they raised it, as are many people. It adds more to the game, more replay value, and ND released 2 skins for when you rank up. One for 60, and one for 80. I all ready planned on getting as high as I could on the ranking system, but this motivated me even more.

Thanks ND, sorry you have guys like Eskobara.

He actually was a legit uncharted player. He used to play with a lot of my friends. He was good at the game too, and loved it like we all did. He just got sick of ND messing up the game, and I don’t blame him. I reached lv60 and a couple weeks later they made new levels. You know how that made me feel? I worked sooo hard to reach level 60 and a few days later they took the awesomeness of it away. It’s like they finish making Uncharted 3 after so long of making it, and someone just tells them “hey you have to start all over” and have to do it all over again do it 5 more times. Probably a bad example, but you get what I mean. 1.05 was BAD, but on top of that new levels? terrible.

Posted by: PhantomOfPanton on 10-20-2010

Yes, we do want maps zephirus1, however ND didn’t get us maps. What they DID give us was EPIC.

They gave us something so awesome, that no fan ever even asked for it. Thats pretty damn amazing.

I’m sure maps will come before 2011. ND gave me an incredible saturday, I even ditched my friends, thats how great it was!

Thanks ND!

Posted by: majora96 on 10-20-2010

i dont want them to make anymore maps until christmas because i ran out of money on my psn card and im not getting another one until christmas and i dont want to be left out where everyone has the maps and i dont :(

Posted by: qaugmire3-5 on 10-21-2010

arne can you please patch all the glitches im mean i know most of them and i hate having to use my time just to get in the glitch and kill them
Hint: there’s a killer one at the village just to let you know

Naughty Dog, I have been a loyal fan to this games MP since when I first started. At first I did enjoy it very throughly. I came in around 1.08, so I never got to experience the “golden age” of U2. I didn’t care, I had fun and all that. But, when 1.09 came out, it kind of dissapointed me as I liked plunder the old way. But, as of now, I cannot stand this game anymore. Most of this is because all you seem to do is make this game progressivly worse and worse with each single update. The Lag has gotten terrible, and the spawns are crap. But I could deal with all of it, even the lag, if the matchmaking just wasn’t so broken. It finds it ok to put me with levels 20-25 against a party of 65+! I mean, is that what this game has come too?! I try to stick it out and all, but I can’t find this game very much enjoyable anymore due to how broken things are at the time. If this game were to just fix the poor matchmaking, I would come back to it full time like I used to! And the thing that’s wrong with the matchmaking is its way of finding people. It should be based partly on level, partly on connection, and the rest on K/D ratio. That way you get into an even level game, with good connection, against EQUALLY skilled players. Cause its not fun playing with a team of 40’s who have leveled with nothing but co-op. Another issue that you are probably aware of is the whoreing of power weapons, normally, I don’t care as long as you aren’t using noob boosters with it and what not. But whoreing the Hammer cause you have Glass and Half Loaded on? Come on, I can get 2-4 Miserlys every game with Half Loaded. So another thing you should do, is make it to where a negative user can’t pick up a power weapon (this does not include the D-Eagle, Sniper, or M4) more than twice in one game, UNLESS they have some kind of combo with Invalid on as that is literally the only way to kill someone with Invalid on. If you take the time to read this I appreciate it, I do not expect this to go unnoticed, but not taken very seriously. I mean, it would be nice to be taken seriously, but these would probably change the game for the better. Thank you for your time if you read and consider this.

Congratulations, kefstaGBR. You’ve managed, in one line of incoherent text, to make yourself not only look like an illiterate dumbass, but also a douche bag.

Static-Star1 makes very valid criticisms about the game, including the developer’s questionable balancing choices as well as the increasingly problematic lag. Players with great connections (such as myself) are at a great disadvantage, while players who seemingly are connected with a string of yarn wrapped in aluminum foil are capable of seeing the better connected players sooner, absorbing clips of ammo without taking damage as well as killing people through walls and/or boxes. Naughty Dog may be some of the most talented, dedicated developers out there (and they truly are),they can’t seem to maintain and fix a game that plays worse now than it did back in beta phase.

The next time you decide to log-in and choose to drool all over another person for making valid criticisms about a game they enjoy, just do yourself a favor and keep your mouth shut. Without feedback, Naughty Dog wouldn’t be able to know what to look into improving for their game. I seriously hope you had a vasectomy, or no woman is desperate enough to procreate with you.

guy cmon, only 2 times wearying a hammer or rpg in a plunder that takes 20 min. thats just bullsh*t. its not cuz you dont have the skills to beat a hammer guy, that nobody can do it. me and my friends can easily beat a hammer noob. More and more people would leave the game… then u would complain that the search time is too long… but i love the new skin and uncharted and the naughty dogs. sorry if i hurted you but i always say what i think. game-beest lv 67

Posted by: qaugmire3-5 on 10-20-2010

Yes, I agree with you man im level 61 and when I played plunder one day I got so much low levels and the level 64,78,80,67,and a 70 and I get 44 59 64 51 and me 61 it just doesnt work out. yes but about the K/D ratio well mine is extremely high and i would just get even higher levels. But about high levels using low levels as a party leader, yeaaaa you should probrably do something about that because it’s not cool high levels should be men and face their levels, not 30’s and under

Posted by: arne on 10-20-2010

Regarding matchmaking and lag - a lot of what you’re seeing is the result of how the player population is shaking out and where those players are available during the times of day. We increased the range of levels to which you can be ranked against to provide a broader set of high quality connections so you can get into a game faster (or at all in some cases, before it dumps you back out to the matchmaking main screen). We can make the matchmaking level options more strict again, at the cost of possibly taking longer to get into matches or having more matches with lower-quality connections/ping times.

The other options - such as with the power weapons and boosters, are low-level changes to the game we cannot make at this time.

Posted by: qaugmire3-5 on 10-21-2010

Ok. well arne i appreciate your comment and it really helped me understand why my friends are complaining when im leader and we play dethmatch and they’er all whining because they cant get anykills but do you have an account that you actually play on or is this it because i wont to add you to see how good you are. and yes that means im challenging you so if it’s possible than please add me. thanks

gracias por el skin de aniversario, el jueves 21 cumplo 1 año de tener este gran juego o mejor dicho el juego que mas e jugado en mi vida espero que sigan asi y que alla mas sorpresas de uncharted, y feliz aniversario

Posted by: Koutetsu_Tatsu on 10-19-2010

That’s some good news. I got to play a match with some folks from ND earlier, red paws and all. Felt honored hunting with them in the village map. I noticed they had the Prakoso skin with a white tank tank along with the Naughty Dog logo across their chests. Time to honor them some more with my new skin.

Posted by: KirbyRules on 10-19-2010

The weirdest thing happened to me today. I was playing Uncharted and I was able to use the ND Drake and ND Pirate. People were also telling me that I had a ND Paw next to my name. When I logged off and came back on I didn’t have the paw anymore and I wasn’t able to select the ND Drake and Pirate. Why did this happen???

Posted by: gtone339 on 10-19-2010

Thank you naughtydog for having a great anniversary day on the 16th of October.

I have the skins that you guys told about so yeah I played at least some of you guys.

Here are some of the ND-Players that I’ve encountered online:

Hi Arne,
Please, could ND make available to everyone the 1st anniversary skin? I have been playing Uncharted 2 regularly since November 2009, but the last 10 days my internet connection is broken and my ISP has been unable to fix it (I hate them), so I missed the first anniversary of Uncharted 2 (now I’m writing from my job because I’m still without internet connection at home). I missed forever the cash x 5 with unlimited cap, but I wish I could have the special skin. I’m sure there are many Uncharted 2 “loyal players” (as you say on the post) like me who for some reason could not connect on Saturday (bad connection, broken ps3, etc.). Please, I think players with bad luck like me deserve the special skin.

Posted by: game-beest on 10-20-2010

i understand you. i think nd should look in their database who plays regular and a lot. people who werent able to play on the anniversary, though should have the skin because of their loyalty. if you want to add me : game-beest
im lv 67 btw

Posted by: PhantomOfPanton on 10-20-2010

I’m sorry you couldn’t make it, it was amazing! But don’t worry, ND will have more sweet things soon, hope you can connect to those!

I disagree though, giving it out to people who didn’t play on the one year anniversary is like giving out a trophy to someone who didn’t deserve or really win the trophy! Get it?
I’m not saying you don’t deserve it, I’m sure your a loyal fan. But this skin is ONLY for people who are loyal fans AND played on the one year anniversary!

Posted by: icewave35 on 10-20-2010

I hope i get it I managed to get in and join the party for quite a long time. i’ll check it as, soon as my network will work. Thanks ND for the best game ever created Uncharted 2 is exactly a game i have been waiting for

Posted by: SilverBlade51 on 10-20-2010

Arne I’m getting sick of people CHEATING in plunder. They grab the treasure by emptying their pistol (the one you start with) and pressing triangle, L1 and the D-pad left. It makes them run so fast with the treasure! They don’t even need treasure bearer to do it. I’ll send you a replay I have protected. BTW any news on new dlc?

Posted by: Ultima12 on 10-20-2010

The anniversary was awesome!! Thanks ND!! I can’t wait to get my ingame shirt. It has been a great year playing Uncharted 2. I can’t wait to continue into the next year. I just can’t get tired of this game!!

Posted by: jbtullos on 10-20-2010

I noticed the plunder treasure glitch as well. I was wondering how the other team was moving the treasure so fast.

Awesome game ND. I still play it a lot regardless of the cheaters. Thanks for all the good work on the game.

Posted by: McAwesum on 10-20-2010

I wish I could have played online on the Anniversary. But I had work and then had to meet some friends after wards. I love Uncharted 2 and have been playing since the first closed beta; this is my favorite game of all time (not exaggerating in the slightest). Because of my busy schedule (I have work and am doing an internship in character design and other projects at home) I don’t always have time to play on the just the weekends. Sometimes I have weekdays off sometimes it’s on the weekends.

The point is that I have an erratic schedule and so do other players, I’m sure. I am just putting my 2 cents in. I think that you guys should make some of these events last a little bit longer than 1, 2, or 3 days. I don’t know how many Labs and Double Cash weekends I have missed because of busy schedules. Can you guys extend these events in the future or something? I love your games and I hate missing these awesome events that you guys make for us players.

Posted by: eldiablo8713 on 10-21-2010

Thank you so much Naughty Dog for the event on saturday, i had a lot of fun and got up a couple levels.
The new skin is really great too.
Here’s to the best developers ever.
PS: Christophe B. isn’t the best player lol

Posted by: tts42572 on 10-21-2010

Appreciate the skin....

My thought is that ND should have some other special skins to commemorate achivements in the game. For example, why not have a Drake skin with a big “X” on his back that is available for like $5 mil once you reach level 60? And maybe one with XXX on his back available at level 80?

I appreciated the 5x cash weekend....Just wish their were more items we could all spend our cash on and some more special items once you’ve ranked up.

I know there are the Blaine & Dutch skins....but they really do nothing for me and don’t really signify anything IMO.

Everybody has tons of cash sitting around and nothing to do with it.

Or maybe add some new taunts...has to be something you could do.

Enjoy the game and plan to keep on playing. Think I’m addicted....Would just love more incentives and things to shoot for.

Hello naughtydog and Arne.
Can we all please have dubble cash and no cash cap now because I’am level 58 now and have about 40 00 000 and need 362965500 to reach level 80.
I can play 11h a week and that will be like 171600000 in a year :( .
I love playing uncharted 2 online but there is no point of me playing if I cant get to level 80 before uncharted 3.
It will take me 3 years to hit level 80.
So if not you guys dubble the cash and take of the cash cap will I and meny others not reach level 80 or 70 before uncharted 3 and you guys want us to buy uncharted 3 right??
I just thaught it would be I nice thing to do.
Many poeple that have uncharted 2 will start playing it again and more so please have dubble cash every day or every weekend so I and many others can reach level 80 or 70 before uncharted 3 thanks for reading
/ Gabriel
