The Last of Us Multiplayer – New Content Being 'Prototyped, Remastered Targeting 60FPS, And More

MP1st: During their Reddit AMA, members from Naughty Dog Studio highlighted the future of The Last of Us Multiplayer.

ddgaming8203632d ago

The MP on the Remastered edition sounds very promising.

ZodTheRipper3632d ago

The MP is promising already ;)
Very unique and intense, higher resolution and framerate will make it even better.

URNightmare3632d ago

To me, the best multiplayer experience last year. It was fresh and very well executed.

l-Mc-I3632d ago

I agree, I'm actually getting the ps4 version for the multiplayer. One of my favorite multiplayer of last gen

-Foxtrot3632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

I hope Erin Daly does the multiplayer for Uncharted 4, if he's all about balance maybe he'll get rid of all the silly stuff they added in Uncharted 3 thanks to Robert Cogburn.

Last of Us didn't feature big things like every online game although I wished they removed load outs to make you scavenge the map to find better weapons like you do in the single player when your trying to upgrade them.

Actually the main thing I would remove in the multiplayer is how you can purchase items in game, like you can just buy armour and a flame-thrower with supplies, it's kind of silly. I'd rather they make us build a powerful weapon or a piece of armour instead.

Nitrowolf23632d ago

Me to!! I always thought it was strange we can buy Armor TBH. Thought it should be a craft item, and if it was much harder to tear apart than two hits by a bow or something.

-Foxtrot3632d ago

It's silly to me, the fact that the main game is about surviving and scavenging yet in the online we can just magically buy a powerful weapon or armour.

I'm not as fussed about loadouts in this game since you don't start of with a lot of ammo but in Uncharted 4 it needs to be dropped. The game isn't that kind of online game. It was balanced as hell in Uncharted 2 even after the 1.5 update it was still more balanced then Uncharted 3. Get rid of that and get rid of stupid weapon mods, the only thing you should be able to change to your weapons is the looks so everyone's starting weapons are personalized to them. Then we can get rid of the kicbacks aswell since they are just annoying as hell. I suppose the upgradable perks are alright as long as they are reasonable but I also think sprinting should be taken out.

Oh and paid boosters at the start of the match, have no idea why they are even there.

NaughtyDog bit off more then they could chew in Uncharted 3.

Uncharted 2 was simple and fun. No offence to people who liked Uncharted 3 better but if you didn't like Uncharted 2 but liked Uncharted 3 then tough shit, there's a lot of other games out there which has every other online game features.

Evilsnuggle3632d ago (Edited 3632d ago )

That would be interesting but it's just semantics. I do understand and agree with your point of view. You want a game based in reality I agree. Uncharted 3 multiplayer was a step backwards for the uncharted series. I don't like the kick back and the over the top stuff in uncharted 3. I hope uncharted 4 is more like Uncharted 2 multiplayer was just more weapons and more weapon mod and my customization of characters

-Foxtrot3632d ago

I think what they did was try to please the "Call of Duty" crowd, I say COD because it's influenced a lot of online games, ruining some of them.

The game in Uncharted 2 used to be about skill, using cover, knowing your enemy but now it's just about whatever unlocks you and they have. If your a low levelled player, skilled or not, your still most likely be killed by a high levelled player with no skill because of the fact they have equipped unlocked guns with the best mods you haven't got yet.

THC CELL3632d ago

Add few more players,please

HammadTheBeast3632d ago

If there's a bigger map then it would be nice. Or maybe more than 2 teams.

Nitrowolf23632d ago

They already confirmed in the story that they won't. It was tested, but it was just abd for the game overall.

OrangePowerz3632d ago

They would need to increase the size of maps for that because with the current size more players would be more like a TDM in CoD.

trenso13632d ago

nah i like the 4 on 4 its intense then to have a bunch of players running every where. It lets you be a small organized group.

Players vs infected!

Players vs Players vs infected!

A REAL survivors mode where you actually have to go town to town collecting supplies and surviving. Meds, for outbreaks, fight off attackers, all that!

TFJWM3632d ago

If they were going to that it wouldn't be for a remastered ver it would be for Last of Us 2

cyclindk3632d ago

I agree, but I can dream.

Clover9043632d ago

Player vs Players vs Infected! Yes please.

-Foxtrot3632d ago

You know what bugs me about the infected thing, people have wanted it since multiplayer was shown off. If you listen closely in some maps online you can hear clickers. When I first played the game I thought they were going to invade the map.

A horde mode would be amazing aswell

CocoWolfie3632d ago

never touced the original, as soon as i finished the story i felt really satisfied, so ill give it ago on ps4 ^-^

ginsunuva3632d ago

Well you missed out on one of the best MP's of all time.

I will never understand some people's logic/lack of it.

"I bought this game and it has the MP right here on disc. It costs me nothing to try the MP out since I already paid for it! In fact, I might actually enjoy it!
Hence, I'm gonna ignore it and re-buy the game later!"

The Last Of Us Series Has Remarkable Potential For Spin-Offs

Najam from eXputer writes "It's time fore a new installment in the series, not another pointless remaster."

anast76d ago

They are working on something new. Not to be rude but it is impossibility stupid to think ND next major announcement is going to be a remaster or their next Last of Us entry is going to be another remaster.

AlterRecs73d ago

I think this is in response to them releasing a remaster for the sequel, a game that didn't need a remaster.

Basically a "why did you put out a remaster no one asked for when you have all there options available"

anast73d ago

They remaster is to put out something quick while they are deving new stuff. I don't get how people can be so static.

AlterRecs72d ago

There's no news about a third game being in production, you're just assuming that they're working on something that they aren't

anast72d ago

When they release the news to start the hype-train, you can give me my props then.

DrDoomer76d ago

I want an alternate timeline spin-off, where part 2 never happened.

CrimsonWing6976d ago

They’ve already done Remasters of 1 and 2… what else is there to Remaster?

AlterRecs73d ago

Considering they remastered the first game twice, who knows lol

CrimsonWing6973d ago

That was a Remake. I guess they could do that to 2, but man…. They should wait a couple generations so it can look like a major upgrade.

The Last Of Us Online Devs Celebrate Their Experience With The Canceled Game

The team is sad for losing out on such a great project but celebrates its growth because of spending time on it.

Chocoburger121d ago

All they had to do was make a basic online mode like their previous games. Instead they wanted more money and choose to go live service which makes games worse in my opinion.

What a waste of time and money, what a shame.

seanpitt2376d ago

I can't wait for season 2 so they can kill Joel off in the first 2 episodes!! Then it will be just Abby and Ellies revenge plot!

Something is telling me that this won't happen though because it wouldn't make sense, oh wait

Linzoid121d ago

Not sure why they didn’t just make Factions 2. There was no need to make it a live service.

TLoU Factions was a great addition such a shame they couldn’t be bothered to remaster that for PS5 considering the crazy high price tag of the remaster of a remaster…

anast120d ago

This is something to be celebrated. This studio is smart and they get it, even factions 2 wouldn't've have been worth the time. I am surprised they didn't just remaster the first one though, but actually how popular was Factions?
