man this fuckin game. I think I officially suck. I had a game where I died 4 or 5 times without even firing off a shot lol. Hopefully I get better as I learn the maps and weapons though.

Dashboard out, You won't get penalized. I don't do it often but if I get tossed into the middle of a match and ND thinks I would have only earned 6 supplies in 6 minutes then I quit.

I think if you are taken to the middle of a match, a day won't pass? So your survivors won't be affected, it's like an extra day? It happened to me once of twice but I think my survivors weren't affected..

I hate the marking missions. I never do them, lol.
If I see an enemy I try to shoot. him...if I try to mark him I'll get killed (or wounded). Marking enemies is wasting time :p

Which is why I roll with Damage marker with hawk eyed 2. If I shoot a guy and he escapes, which happens like half the time, me and my teammates know exactly where he is and what he is doing for next 10 seconds. The guy is basically doomed. People talk about how DLC perks don't matter and its not pay to win, but I feel sorry for someone who has to separately mark people with R3 and get shot in the process.

Running is looked down upon, but I run a lot and in every match.

I know when to run and when not to. When there's a fire fight, or when it's a clutch interrogation offensive. I opened a ton of safes because of my marathon 2 perk.

I really hate it when the team is losing a battle and one guy is sneaking on his way not giving a shit about getting there fast to join the fight.

I find it hard not to mark. You're aiming with the R3, it's instinct for me to mark players since it's the same stick.

Is there a way to tell when people are playing MP? It just says:

"The Last of Us: Remastered" and sometimes "The Last of Us: Remastered | The Last of Us: Remastered"

I don't want to invite people playing SP, so I'm pretty much always playing by myself..

does the 'friends' menu on the lobby mean anything? Maybe the ones with avatars are currently playing MP? Not sure. Should definitely be an easy way to invite or play with people on your friends list. I'd even sit and wait out a round if I knew I was going to be matched up with friends in the next game.

PSA: For those 100% population missions, do yourself a favour and use the support class so you can select the healing mission. The requirement was 15 heals, and I had 75 after 2 days. Even the second level only requires 20.

That looks cool as shit, but ill never have 85 people by week 12 no chance haha

Yeah I barely got the minimum requirement for clan size.110 I think? Use to be 120 or 126 I recall. Don't even remember how I did it on PS3. This shit would be impossible without a party.

Thanks,

The marking enemies one is good too, 21 for first level and I had over 50 by day 3.

if you have damage marking (so that enemies are marked when you shoot them), does that count?

my problem when I get those heavy loss missions is that I tend to focus too much on what my clan needs, which means I'm not necessarily playing the best for my team.

I decided to put some more hours into the mp and its clicking. I average about 12 kills and 4 to 5 deaths per match. Im getting there. For some reason when i play with my mate with his shitty connection i lag badly. Anyone explain why the happens?

I can mostly finish those missions inside half of a game, by healing. This way I can finish the mission and move on with my own playstyle.

95% of the other missions can be ridiculously hard to achieve.

when in multiplayer when you press triangle to bring up the list to invite. people already in the multiplayer will populate your list first. you can even tell who is playing as it will say they are in a match, lobby or searching for a game.

if they are in single player or another game it will say 'in another game'

Ah thanks that makes sense, I tend to ignore in game lists because they mostly just show online people and not people in the game I'm playing.

Tweeted Drew Thaler at ND and he said they don't have an eta for a patch but they are aware of the issues and are actively working on it, always good to know, hopefully they'll get it sorted soon so people don't bugger off without giving it a go when there is no issues with matchmaking.

I, however, am in for the long haul.

Fuck playing with randoms, they just run non stop like it's COD. Makes it hard to play the slow game I like.

I have been avoiding squading up with gaf because I haven't a mic. But my mic/headset should be here any day now!

well I am glad they are aware but they have a few short weeks before other mp games start dropping. other mp games which you actually play with your friends.

going lone wolf is fun- but not as fun as it could be

I know fella, that's why I am bugging them a little on twitter about it, I'd hate for people to drop it. I think it's the sort of game most people would keep rather than trade in so it will always be available for a MP dabble.

Lol, so you never found the packaged PS4 mic? Did you toss it by mistake? My Sony Gold Wireless Headset should be here later this afternoon. Can't wait.

Yeh. I think I threw it out :-$

The really embarrassing thing is I threw 2 out because I'm on my 2nd PS4.

I have golds incoming too! Looking forward to teaming up with you gaffers again.

My man! I run damage marker a lot. Upsides are you dont give your position away with an audible call out and you can mark enemies that you literally can't otherwise, as long as you hit them with anything (such as molly, bomb, etc.) It's basically the only dlc I use. Although I admit some of the other ones are good too.

Edit: also noteworthy, damage marker 2 gives double points for marking (regular or via damage marker), this is easy points for my playstyle.

Giving me a 100% risk of population event on my last 3 days of week 12 is bloody cruel.

Luckily I finished with 91 clan members and unlocked the skull mask.

Fucking hell I'm just about done with this game.

Spent 10 minutes trying to find a match as usual, it kept matching me up with people then resetting. Finally get into a match of Interrogation and a few minutes have already passed, I have an awesome game and make up for the lost time. Match ends and as usual the game goes to black screen before going back into the menu, but instead of showing me my winnings it just goes straight back to the lobby searching for a optimal fucking game. Reset back to the same day I was on. No disconnect message, no host left the game message nothing, just fucking fuck!

I regret trading in my PS3 copy for this.

Time to wait for a match when lone wolfing it: less than 10 seconds.
Time to wait for a match when in a party: 10+ minutes.
Number of people who have been able to hear my mic in-game/non-party: 1
Frames per second in MP: 60, which so far has made the annoyances mostly worth it.
