Congratulations, especially for this award:

- How to ruin one of the best multiplayer games.

wink

BigmanW posted March 20, 2010 3:30 pm

wow seriously.  naughty dog is an amazing company that deserves all the awards they get.  they don’t need a little ***** like you always complaining.  if you don’t like the multiplayer, then don’t play it.

wI-kronos-Iw posted March 20, 2010 3:48 pm

Another n00b talking s#!t. For complacent people like you this game is garbage now.

BigmanW posted March 20, 2010 4:49 pm

ok have your opinion.  i agree that it was better before 1.5 patch, but it is still an insanely great game.  you don’t have to be an asshole and ruin their moment.

Yiggler posted March 19, 2010 7:12 pm

Damn Straight.

You guys are gonna need more mantles in your new kennel to hold all of your awards that ya’ll are stacking up.

musicaholic800 posted March 19, 2010 8:01 pm

Nice and congratulations. You Make a great Singleplayer.  OFF: No Cash limit please

musicaholic800 posted March 19, 2010 8:06 pm

also, + WHY have a website that says “the URL has too many segments.” when i try to comment??? You would think your website is compatible with the PS… + its odd how you can get a pulldown when your in the air or just let go of a ledge.  + This needs attention: skeletons and new Chars make NO noise.  + Fix 3 booster glitch + glass jaw & invalid one hit punch (Why have 2 boosters do the same thing?) + Evasion should be at lvl 49.  + Extra Health first 3 secs of spawning please, NO Cash Limit

binky99 posted March 20, 2010 9:21 am

okaaay where do i start… pull downs: they’re perfectly fine - if your in fornt of someone when they hit square, it’s a kill; just admit they got you no matter where you tried to go before it came up on your screen. Skeletons and extra characters just make it more stealthy - who would complain about that?! similar response for 3 boosters.. why’re you complaining? invalid is clearly not the same thing as glass jaw - you can be killed with one punch and/or half the amount of bullets - hence why you get more money for using it. Next two suggestions are pointless, you only have to wait one extra level for evasion and extra health on spawn will be irrelevant once they’ve got it sorted. And finally no cash limit will make it too easy to rank up - i didnt feel the need to use ‘Come Get Some’ on plunders but when i accidently kept it on i would’ve broken £300,000 in one match. Just have some patience and use strategic boosters.

How in the world did you guys not win Artistic Achievement and Best Game?! This game totally spoiled me in terms of gorgeous graphics, charming storyline, superb acting, and incredible highs of fun.

Its hard to play other games after Uncharted 2, because they feel so outdated and irrelevant.

bobbyduco posted March 20, 2010 2:23 am

True. I’ve bought other shooters but after a few goes I always return to Uncharted 2. Nothing compares.

timbo1501 posted March 20, 2010 1:33 am

congrats, you guys deserve the title of best game on the PS3!

Nak3nSnak3 posted March 20, 2010 1:56 am

Best singelplayer yes, best multiplayer NOOOO! we still want 1.04 back. vote!

nillacoke posted March 20, 2010 3:30 am

“we”, who the hell is we, i guess i’ll have to explain to u too, 1000 comments from like the same 445(people who have signed the petition) at the most hate this game or at least the multiplayer, yet 60000 are playing getting used to it, now i’m not saying they’re having fun but they arent talking shit about, they realize that its only a game and that they have the skill to adapt.

ExtremeGamer13 posted March 23, 2010 12:21 am

447 out of 70,000? srsly? just stfu and play the game.

Snake-Eater300 posted March 25, 2010 1:41 am

Do you really think the game has 60k players daily and that only 500 out of these players complain? Lol…

When does the counter ever reset? When does the day start and end? Does it simply count every log-in or actually every single account only?

Why does it often take five to ten minutes to find an objective or ranked game (on default) even with a fast connection when so many people are online each day?

The number of people who actually voted against or at least not for the low health was already a few times higher than the 500 you mentioned. And you see new people/complaints here every day.
I bet at least 70% of all the gamers have a problem with the current state of the game.

Just because you like it doesn’t give you the right to tell us to shut up. The game is not the one we bought anymore and until this game is back, people have to complain.

This is not only about this MP. If if stays that way, the next MP in UC3 will be just as crappy…

nillacoke posted March 25, 2010 3:11 am

i see ur point, i still dont know how to “repaint” this multiplayer if u remember wat i said before snake eater.

Snake-Eater300 posted March 25, 2010 4:56 am

I remember wink

I would really like to know why ND can’t make two different playlists to please fans of both sides. I don’t have the technical knowledge to understand that…

nillacoke posted March 25, 2010 2:54 pm

yea that would be nice having a 1.04 playlist minus the glitches, it would shut a lot of people up too lol. again just to make it clear i dont like the 1.06 update yet i dont hate it (dont die to some random sh*tty grenade by some lvl 20).

ivgenygigi posted March 20, 2010 2:52 am

Congratulations Naughty Dog!

CARNlVORA posted March 22, 2010 9:54 pm

Congratulations ND!
Do you know that Uncharted 2 is said to be the best game ever made(in existence) by the amount of awards it recieved?

That is really big!
Congrats people!

Keep on making Uncharted games and being who you are!

Chuche_02 posted March 23, 2010 3:35 am

Congrats on another award ND.

I didnt know where else to post this but I’d just like to say that I stopped playing Uncharted 2 for about 2 months and now that I have returned to it there have been a lot of changes and it feels like a complete new game. Sadly I think some of these changes have been for the worse. The grenades have been nerfed way too much. I cant get any grenade kills anymore I used to get double downs with grenades all the time and now its a miracle if I can kill one person with a grenade. Also the new respawn system is crazy Im constantly respawning in front of enemies who just immediately kill me and I get a lot of cheap kills on enemies that spawn in front of me. Also the AK seems a lot more powerful now. Im still enjoying this game but I miss how this game used to play. I thought it was perfect back since day 1 and now it feels too different.
