Whatever happened to this by the way? I guess they were hoping we forgot about it...

Are we even sure he wasn't responding to the character creator? Doubtful, but no idea how those responses work. I think them lowering the cost by $10 and saying the DLC you bought carries over are probably the best you are getting.

Seeing lot of EU folks ordering US version but I gotta ask a stupid question, did the devs confirm the mp to be censored again for the PS4?

could have sworn it was confirmed, but I can't imagine why it wouldn't...nothing has changed in 1 year and this time the gore will be clearer to see!!
 
Apologies if already posted.

Just got an email from GameStop (UK) saying they will announce a £9.97+ 1 game trade in offer for TLoU Remastered on Monday.

I got one of those as well - they are apparently going to send me a trade in envelope that I can use or ignore as I wish. Any guesses for which titles will be allowed for the trade in? I'm going for Watch Dogs and maybe infamous.
 
Never played Gears so I can't comment there, but it's nothing like Uncharted. In UC you can just run around doing your own thing -- that fails horribly in TLOU. You really need to stick with your teammates and move quietly (no running). Crafting plays a big role in the game too.

For new players yeah you need to stick to your teammates but when you get experienced enough you can start to take advantage of opportunities and start flanking the enemy pretty hard.

Yeah, it'll probably some of the newer releases seeing as it's only one game. They did something similar with GTA V and that list was *huge* but then it was two or three games you could trade in.

Question for those who played on Survival.

Did you play it as Survival+ or just Survival? Its like New Game + if I remember and it you start with your skills intact next play through.

Also did you guys skill up your "aiming" skill. Heard some went as far as not upgrading it to make it a tougher challenge. On my hard playthrough I did keep upgrading my aiming skills just cause I felt it was too much unstable if left alone. Thoughts.
I actually didn't upgrade any of Joel's skills on my Grounded run. Not as impossible as I was expecting, and also kinda fun. I encourage others to try it if they want a little extra challenge. You eventually get used to stuff like shaky aiming rhythm, and literally everything one-shotting you.

I still upgraded my weapons though, I'm not that much of a sadist masochist!

For everyone wanting the GORE and UNCENSORED version in the UK or EUROPE:

  • Buy US Dollar PSN credit (I just got it emailed from Play Asia)
  • Create a US PSN account and set your PS4 as its primary - this makes all your games one long list
  • Preorder the Digital Version on the US store for £30
  • Play it like normal on your EU profile..
Why not going with retail NTSC? 365games seems to cost about the same. And you can bring your copy to friends or lend it to them.

£30 ($50) from US PSN (assuming your fake address is in a tax free state
I didn't know the taxes of US PSN vary. They are always included within the displayed price of the psn store, right? Like for instance, if the store says 50$, there won't be hidden costs?

Uuughhh, the "flanking game" in the multiplayer is SO GOOD. The map design is great for creating opportunities that really explore the risk/reward of getting behind your enemies.


So so good.
 
Don't mind me - this is just how I'm dealing with the wait until July 29.

I can't wait to load this game up and jump into multiplayer. I'll try to do single player in the future to make gaf happy but damn the multiplayer looks soooo good and I don't want to get left behind.

Nope.

A friend of mine just created one account and shared it around.

I think maybe that's what Stu was getting at. There was technically a demo for TLoU, but only as a marketing tool for another game and not made available to the general public. As such, it's unlikely that a remaster of said game will get one. Or something, I could be wrong. Whatever the case, I can't wait to get this game in my hands again.

I was told that somewhere in this thread it was mentioned, the digital US version of the game would still be cencored in MP when playing with an EU account from an EU ip adress. But I can't find the post. Any information on this?

That doesn't sound right to me at all.

Well I thought, and since this doesn't pertain to me I didn't pay that much attention, that someone posted that the censored part of MP was server side.

This is all going off of memory though, no idea where the original source came from. And I wasn't the original person to say anything about it.

This is the post I was talking about but it seems like they were wrong.

Thank you. So it's safe. I guess I'll go digital then, since I just found a 50$ psn card on ebay for 31€.

I was born ready. Still think the ending was absolutely perfect.

It really is. But it's great that not everyone thinks so, because the discussion associated with it is fantastic and always a lot of fun to be a part of, it wouldn't be as good if everyone was like "yeah the ending was great" and that's it.

Any idea how long it takes to ship the game to Europe if I buy it at 365? I live in the Netherlands btw. I can't wait to play the uncensored MP, but to wait even longer for the game to show up is hard :/

No pics or video yet? Ugh...come on show something so I can order my PS4.

i forsee a glorious 60fps trailer on youtube a week before launch with lots of awards, quotes and scores from press, fading to black, slowmo, quick cuts and something from the soundtrack playing in the background.
 
I'm ready for all the overrated thread.

I personally think the game is worth all the hype, I adore it. But I won't blame anyone who thinks it's overrated, especially with all of this buildup to the PS4 version. Very hard for anything to live up to those kind of expectations.

And I foresee a plethora of posts claiming it doesn't look much different; followed by many posts explaining why Youtube doesn't reflect the quality; followed by people ignoring this fact and continuing to moan anyway.

FAQ of the site says 3-7 days usually. And it's possible that they dispatch the game even before release.

Still, digital is the more convenient solution. That way you get it on literally day one. Not EU day one. The real day one, baby.

They could just release it on PSN, no excuses then.

I don't mind if they don't though, I'm fairly confident on the performance from those tweets.

If I could pick one part of the game immune to overrated thread is the voice acting.

I really don't want to see anything from the gameplay at all. I would like to think they've improved some assets like grass, trees, bushes and whatnot but I'm holding those expectations in check. Better textures, better lighting, higher resolution and better framerates will do me.

True. An acting performance is something that is (or should) be impartial and more or less viewed the same by everyone. Whether or not the story speaks to you is one thing, but good acting is just good acting, period. And this game has it in spades.

Thanks! No going digital on this one. It's a masterpiece that I wanna hold tight.
