Do they say from how early into the game the preview is? Wondering how much I want spoil myself looking at the videos.

Its from Chapter 10.

Gamersyde combat video look awesome, that rope kill!

Chapter 10, but the video doesn't spoil any story beats.

 

[Primethius]

Boy am I glad to see the reticule from MP carry over. I absolutely love that thing.

From Ars Technica:



HYPEEEE

Weird comparison to QB, it's in-game animation aren't even in the same generation as U4.

Cross-posting about the IGN video preview:

Her comment about the rope is baffling. The rope is downright OP in multiplayer just so much fun to use. She mentioned it never felt advantageous compared to the normal skill set and proceeds to show a clip with Drake on the ground, looking at a wooden post and just climbing up the wall, completely ignoring the fact that the post was put between two elevated platforms so you can swing BETWEEN them, not upwards.

This isn't a Batman game, lady.

Drake "And GO" *Drives up with jeep but slips down do to mud*
Sully "And NO"

Haha

Good. Crushing is the way to go anyway.

It's chapter 10. If this one has the same number of chapters as the older ones this footage is like little less than 1/2 into the game.

omg couldn't resist from watching. looking really good!

MORE FYLING DRAKE

 

[Loudninja]

Driving from one point to another can be inherently boring if there aren't enemies to evade or fight along the way, so Naughty Dog decided to make the terrain you traverse part of the engagement. While there might be some situations where persistence and messing with video game physics allows you to cross seemingly insurmountable areas, the section of Uncharted 4 that I played in a vehicle felt as authentic to the experience of driving an actual 4x4 as one could imagine. The surfaces you drive over react to your vehicle; mud, in this area, proved to be especially tricky.

We don't want you to see a volcano and then drive in a straight line to it or even if you make the path winding, at some point it loses interest," said Druckmann, noting, "This was going back to the original vision of Uncharted. We wanted you to go back to these uncharted locations, be lost in them, and then have to make your way through. Obviously [for past games] we were limited by hardware, time and resources. This game, we felt like we could finally realize those ideas."

WOOOW. Accurate reactionary physics is amazing. If Naughty Dog implemented the tweaks from Uncharted 2, good god...

Gamersyde http://www.gamersyde.com/news_gsy_preview_uncharted_4-17729_en.html

Wait what? they say enemies can't hear the vehicle and the enemy reaction is bad.

Like here

and here

the enemy didn't even see Nate or heard how his bro got knocked the fuck out right in front of him. I really hope they just toned down the enemy AI for those previews.

 

[d9b]

In-game character faces and animations certainly pale compared to this month's beautiful Xbox exclusive, Quantum Break, but Uncharted fans may prefer the polygonal budget being spent on those incredible views anyway.

Shots fired?

 

[potatohead]

Holy shit.

It's the new Uncharted PLUS Killzone 2.... omfg..... *wet*

MORE FYLING DRAKE

I'm batman.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

Must. Avoid. All. Media.

These GIFS are incredible. Think I'll just read a few previews and call it a day. The game is so close, I don't want to spoil myself!

 

[Loudninja]

"If you blast through, you're going to miss out on some of these sometimes humorous, sometimes insightful directions that when you do get to a pinch point of a narrative beat that everybody experiences, you could have a deeper appreciation if you did experience those other things," Druckmann said, noting A Thief's End has more in-game dialogue than any other Naughty Dog title.

[FelipeMGM]

Is there a video where someone used the Jeep in the combat?

 

[Walpurgis]

MUST RESIST TO WATCH, WANT TO BE SURPRISED....AHHHHH

I know that feel but we need to be honest with ourselves. There is still more than a month left before release. Are you confident that you can resist for that entire time? I'm certainly not so screw it.

 

[Falchion]

Looking juicy.

 

[Daredevil.shark]

Been waiting a long time big time for this game. A few weeks. Then finally I will be able to play this masterpiece.

 

[Dawg]

it looks ok

 

[Blimblim]

There is no video (as far as I know) outside of the official one from Sony. And this one doesn't show any jeep combat.

 

[foxbeldin]

Reaction time is probably linked to difficulty settings.

 

[GalacticMouse]

The Kinda Funny preview talks about how Tim's playthrough had him running guys over with the Jeep, but he quickly got over-run since he drove into the combat zone.

Unfortunately, they're showing Greg's playthrough so that isn't on there.

Nah dude, a bunch of the videos are different. Its journos and previewers playing it, its not the same b-roll for everybody

 

[aussiedude08]

Fuck this game looks great. even more hyped for the game if that is possible. Hurry up May 10.

Treasure sounds are still the same.

and holly shit, i didnt even think of the rope being used to help solve puzzles, thats great.

Yeah, Im watching KF preview right now. They have Tim's gameplay recorded right? Maybe they should upload that as well

 

[DrakeNathan]

hype,some of these preview articles has spoiler,like ign

 

[get2sammyb]

I wouldn't worry too much about spoilers. I think they specifically selected this section just so they could show off all of the new gameplay elements without it ever really touching on story stuff.

The GIF of this section posted a few posts above yours looks fine to me. The only issue might be the disconnect between how much sound it makes vs how close you are to the enemy but I haven't watched the video to be able to judge.

Also, LOL @ the QB comparison. I don't have a laughing gif appropriate enough.

 

[Bollocks]

oh man, having Motorstorm cravings all of a sudden

 

[Always-honest]

Not sure. They mentioned that Sony asked them to record the second playthrough so it would be a less cumbersome video. Not sure if they recorded both.

Did you hear anything about them releasing this demo on PSN before the game. Prob not right?

LOL Ars Technica...

 

[dripdripsplash]

Oh my god that looks fucking amazing.

Game play looks to be a little repetitive maybe in the long run, I expect: driving in semi open area-> look for treasures or continue straight too-> enemies and engagement and then on to -> story part, rinse and repeat.

But the chatter was so well done and intuitive, straight naughty dog goodness, it will spice things up and keep the whole thing fresh throughout. As always in nd games, the story and dialogue is what truly makes them what they are.

 

[DeepEnigma]

Who wrote that?

LOL Ars Technica...

EDIT: NVM... hahaha, okay Ars... I guess we will not read too much into it.

 

[WhiskerFrisker]

Yeah, they could say QB looks better, but to say that Uncharted pales in comparison is stretching it since it has one of the best in game faces. Also, form what I've seen, I don't think QB has better animation either.

That gif doesn't run at a normal speed, it's way faster.

Check out the combat video on Gamersyde. The rope swing takes forever but the guard in front of Drake still doesn't recognize him.

The first gif he saidd "what the" before Drake landed don him the diamond has to fill up.

The second guy call out to him and was about to walk over there but got take out.

Its starts at 13.00

This and Captain America: Civil War will make the start of May great.

 

[TheStruggler]

Those guys must be blind. Character faces in UC4 look amazingly real considering they were not scanned from real faces.

Yeah i was surprised by that comment.. I mean.. What?

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion however i believe not only are the faces better but the facial animations in uncharted 4 are levels above quantum breaks.

 

[foxbeldin]

You guys shouldn't read too much into arstechnica opinions.

 

[jett]

Silly people comparing QB's facial animation in cut-scenes to UC4's facial animations during gameplay.
