This, plus a ~16 hour campaign make this game a must buy.

Boody-Bandit4395d ago

The multiplayer does look great. I can't wait to get my hands on this game! What to do first? Campaign or multiplayer? Decisions, decisions.

Looks so amazing!
Its like the singleplayer. Very cool concept

guitarded774396d ago

Yeah, bullets are useless like the single player :D Cool to see the crafting in the MP. The bit where he made the Molotov cocktail and lit the other player up was cool.

starchild4396d ago

It really does look like a lot of fun. Can't wait to learn more about the multiplayer.

Merrill4396d ago

It's look great, but holy bullet sponges.

SolidStoner4396d ago (Edited 4396d ago )

well it looks very mature and a lot of ways of dealing with things.... complex looking...

and a lot of places for campers to hide :) and i hope there is some kind of objectives.. and rewards for them.. need to look more into it, it looks professionally made..

BISHOP-BRASIL4396d ago

I see it compliments the single player, but definetely not my thing... If I shot you in the skull all I ask is for you to politely stay dead... I hate bullet sponges, specially when they can just run back to cover, use a medkit and come back like nothing had happened.

I see this is different premise, the focus is not so much on combat as it is to secure supply, but again, I think it would be better if guns were a hell lot more effective but also a lot more limited (not just very limited ammo, but if you use one be prepared for clickers crashing your party for example).

Anyway, I wasn't even interested in MP here, it's the SP that I'm looking forward, so no harm done... In fact, the different premise got me interested in trying it out, even if it seens like the kind of gameplay that will get me annoyed enough to rage quit pretty soon. I can already envision it... "Sure, my 10 shots won't kill you, but 2 punches to my head and I'm done... Don't even hide, just run through a wall of bullets and kick me in the nuts! I'm outta here!".

miyamoto4396d ago

the real time crafting and inventory management makes it more challenging and unique

itBourne4396d ago

@bishop
Dont start with this bullet sponge stuff again. U guys have the entire shooter market what more do u want

INMATEofARKHAM4396d ago

Bishop, its less spongy than the Uncharted games, or at least it looks that way from the video, but the final kill was enough to keep me worried that they haven't gone far enough in their new damage model.

thechosenone4396d ago (Edited 4396d ago )

ND goes back to it's roots and returns to a more skill based multiplayer similar to UC2. Hopefully they'll throw in some infected into the mix. The death animations looks so good!

Agrim4396d ago

They can easily tweak dmg numbers with a patch. It's true that they look a bit spongy although it could be because shitty quality weapons?

fr0sty4395d ago (Edited 4395d ago )

The reactions to getting shot seem very realistic. Any time someone was hit in a non-vital area, they did their best to limp their way around and keep trying to kill you. When a player's arm was hit, they cradled that arm (likely limiting certain things as well, like hand to hand combat). I never saw someone take multiple bullets to the head or chest and keep on coming.

Honestly, I've always felt that a game that allowed me to shoot someone's legs out from under them, and them not try to keep shooting at me anyway was unrealistic. If I'm not hitting their head or chest, I don't want to see them drop so quickly.

BISHOP-BRASIL4395d ago

@itBourne

Hey, I'm not trying to represent anyone but myself, so quit the "you guys" talk. Also, when it comes to shooters (which isn't even my favorite genre), I like oldschool tactical ones, which are as far from market domination as are Survival Horror games.

Also I never said the game should be changed to fit my tastes (au contrair, I said why I won't fit into it, hence why I'm not so excited).I even said it got me interested for the different objectives... Chill out.

itBourne4395d ago (Edited 4395d ago )

@bishop
All I am saying is I dont want to hear about bullet sponges, there are people who like that sort of game style. But there is not a SINGLE game that supports that any longer. So rather then complain and get changed a game that does support that, go and play EVERY other shooter out there. UC2 had this problem, and patch 1.05 completely ruined the mp because of people bitching about that.

RFoM sequals and UC3 had similar results, it went CoD style and abandoned the audience that loved the originals for what they were.

KumquatGOATBEEF4395d ago

I agree. There are so many games out there trying to be like COD where it's usually a shot or two to the head and you're dead. It may fit some tactical shooters, but this goes back to Uncharted's arcade roots where the purpose isn't to die and respawn every minute.

There's nothing more frustrating to me than wandering around in an area only to drop dead and not even know who was firing at you because it's one shot, one kill. This isn't that type of game.

Mr_Nuts4396d ago

What, that magnum is a starter weapon in a game like this. Considering how rare weapons and ammo are in this world everyone should of starter with a crappy pistol and an average riffle of some kind.

I hate load outs, if the Last of Us is about scavenging to find loot then so should multiplayer.

Do I take them on now with my crappy weapons or will I go look for a randomly place better weapon to take them on later. Decisions, decisions

trenso14396d ago

You know you don't have to play it. It's already done not worth complaining about at all. Plus it looks fun anyways.

Mr_Nuts4396d ago

But I want to play it, I'm just pointing out it's flaws. When a game is built around a world where weapons and ammo are hard to come by only to have the multiplayer have something silly like loadouts instead of scavenging like the single player then it's a massive flaw.

Besides don't tell people what they can't play, it comes off dickish. It's my opinion, don't like it then tough

trenso14396d ago

When did I say you can't play it? How about reading, I said that you don't HAVE to if you want that's your choice. Also I don't know how people can go about pointing out the flaws of something they haven't even played and have seen 3 minutes of gameplay footage. But ok do you.

Mr_Nuts4396d ago

Actually it's more then three minutes since theres other videos and yet you can easily judge something like this because it's one multiplayer mode, you grasp the gameplay of it straight away because it shown to be very straight forward. It's not like judging the entire game when someone has only seen three minutes of gameplay footage.

uncharted564396d ago

You will have these weapons and abilities but will run out of ammo very quickly as you can see in the video. So you will have to use team work and stealth to take out enemies and loot them for ammo just like sp

itBourne4396d ago

Contrary to popular belief the entire world doesnt want weapon loadouts, kill streaks, and instadeath gameplay. Wld be nice to have ONE that isnt CoD based..

trenso14396d ago

@itBourne i know that im not particularly happy with load outs either im with MR_nuts wanting to scavenge for weapons, i just dont see the need to be complaining about the game already when you haven't even played it.

@Mr_Nuts care to like the other videos since this is the only one ive seen.

zeddy4395d ago

looks bad. but im not getting the game for multiplayer. waste of time and just another mode that takes away from the single player where time and resourses could have been used to improve or build on that.

-Superman-4396d ago

Limited bullets, great. Now you just dont run and shoot, but take cover and try to aim and kill.

guitarded774396d ago

That, and bullets aren't nearly as effective as alternative methods of killing. In the demo I actually found myself doing recon before taking on the bad guys because bullets aren't extremely effective, and they tell the rest of the enemies of your location.

pody4395d ago

A full magazine in each weapon seem like limited ammo to you?

Have only a few bullets in each gun and make the damage higher. It would be much better and make the multiplayer experience more then just a regular generic shooter.

Why o why4396d ago

Looked similar to uncharted. Not a bad thing, just an observation. I was expecting more stealth but maybe that woulda been a boring video to watch. The melee system looks better. Not long left

StraightPath4396d ago

Looks like the usual generic team deathmatch, wsnt to see the other survival mode that sounds interesting maybe like dayz?

maddfoxx4395d ago

Yeah, everyone is hyping up the multi-player, but based on this video alone, it looks like the online for any other TPS. Hopefully, it has other modes to set it apart from other games like Uncharted and Tomb Raider.

s8anicslayer4396d ago

Looks like Left for Dead multi-player...which is a good thing

CrossingEden4396d ago

looks nothing like left for dead multiplayer? THERE'S NO INFECTED, it looks exactly like every other TPS out there minus the aesthetic

DirtyLary4395d ago

L4D? LOL what possible looks like L4D besides shooting a gun in thos clips?

THE-COMMANDER4396d ago

Yea man the game is Awesome, i can't wait!!

ShabbaRanks4396d ago

One thing people don’t seem to have noticed in the comments is the realism in the animations. The mo cap really paid off.

The thing that scares me is the gun damage. The guy playing did miss a lot of shots and since you have less ammo its going to affect the gameplay. Trying out myself will be a must lol. Anyway this game is all about the singleplayer, but if the MP turns out to be solid it may drain out the most of my playing time x)

TXIDarkAvenger4396d ago

Looks boring tbh. But I don't care, I'm buying this for single player.

SegataSanshiro4396d ago

Im gonna play this game for the story, the MP gameplay is nothing but an average TPS deathmatch....and to all the sony fangirls clicking disagree, please explain to me how the MP is different from any other TPS? I guess that more disagrees than replies means butthurt to hear the truth

Burackus4395d ago

I clicked disagree because people crying about bullet damage, I like bullet damage to be low for the simple fact it takes skill to kill someone and not just who sees who first, and less camping because people have more life to run around, usually the better player wins the fight with bullet damage being low,one shot kills are stupid in games takes the fun out of it and make for way to much camping

_QQ_4395d ago

yeah this looks like regular Team deathmatch, i'm guessing this isn't the clan mode, they may just be holding off on that.

CEOSteveBallmer4393d ago

Mr. Segata, Ive heard that you somehow insulted me? you said bald creepy CEO from microsoft with a stupid grin on his face. Thats not very nice is it?

Tsar4ever014395d ago

Mp looking damn good. Great animation, way mord advanced than anything seen on Uncharted mp. The sound design seems way more real world than the cartoony action sound heard in uncharted. Shame so few ps3 titles share these top notch visuals. This clearly shows that the ps3 still has much more potential to show before its done with this gen. Funny this may read but i read somewhere long ago that the ps2 full power was never fully reached, halarious, right? But does any body remember how spatactcular tekken5 looked at the late stages of ps2 era?

That's what I was thinking! It would be great to have runners and clickers invade so that everybody would have to watch out for everything. Maybe you can get a clicker to kill another player, etc.

uncharted564396d ago

In fact they will invade actually. According to the leaked details the point of the mp through two modes is to scavenge for supplies in this game mode and then survive in a different mode to train yourself and your aka level up I assume because this is getting you ready to face off infected apparently. And each game counts a day.

lmao this is getting ridiculous but thing is if people keep buying them.. then why would they stop making them?
Peeps STOP BUYING this game.. that actually hurts me to say this as the last of us is high up on my greatest games of all times.. its one of the few games i played through start to finish 3/4 times back to back as i loved it so much. But sony need to stop, give us a Resistance 3 remaster, i would love and buy that.. such an underated series as was killzone.
Or give us infamous.. so many great series and titles i would gladly buy but they just want to keep giving us last of us.

I am done buying that game.. i would only buy part 2 remaster if they remade it and kept joel alive, or i am not interested. Hate last of us 2s story killing off joel.. the actual game is stunning and incredible, they improved so much in the gameplay department but i hate the story with a passion.

Inverno66d ago

And HBO just announced season 3 even tho LoU2 couldn't possibly be so long that it wouldn't be able to fit in 1 season. They're just milking it at this point.

darthv7266d ago

speaking of the HBO series... I felt they should have made part 1 across two seasons, then address part 2 in seasons 3 and 4. so now i have a feeling they rushed through part 1 in season 1 to make season 2 a cliff hanger with Joel's impending demise being the starting point to Season 3.

-Foxtrot66d ago

I love how they decided to rush, chop and change things for Season 1 to get through the game yet for TLOU Part II it’s like “we’re going to do multiple seasons and take our time”

Inverno66d ago

Okay after seeing that there's only 7 episodes I take it back. Though I think it's incredibly stupid not to have just made the season longer. Another season just to finish what could've just been a 13 episode season seems counterintuitive but aiight. I put that on HBO tho.

@christopher guess I forgot just how much was out I think the special editions are technically one release despite being cross platform though would the Alexa version count

Christopher66d ago

@Profchaos: I guess, but I'd consider it a separate release since it rolled them into one at a later date but definitely there is a PS5/XSX version with PS5/XSX supported updates specific to them.

Chevalier66d ago

"LoU is getting just as bad by milking the same user base"

Weird. Like 35% of PS5 owners are NEW to Playstation. Plus this is really for new fans from the TV series for season 2 of TLOU.

I recall the same idiotic comments when the 1st one was remade just before TLOU TV Series came out and it went on the be one of the best selling games that year.

So maybe get your FACTS straight. Unlike Skyrim getting literally releases in 3 generations and 10 releases.

@darthv72 Uh yes. Yes it has. They milked BOTW across Wii U and switch and they STILL want 40+ for it new and never discounted it. They made "remasters" of older zelda games as well on switch and in the past onto the other gameboy platforms from the older platforms. They have done the same with Mario. They port the paper mario games and mario RPG to switch. And now I PROMISE you they are going to show "enhancements" for those same games on Switch 2. I PROMISE you thats going to get mentioned, maybe even tomorrow. Last of us Part 1 has been across techncially 3 generations, but 2 has been 2- and JUST BARELY 2 because it released just a few months before the PS5 did - and so if that counts as milking it, what do you call breath of the wild on Wii U then going to switch or Twilight Princess coming uot on gamecube and Wii - OR ZELDA WIND WAKER HD coming out?

76d ago
Chevalier75d ago

"Skyrim sure, but the other two... not so much"

Multiple Mario and Zelda games have made 2 generations. Maybe you guys forget that over a 3rd of the gamers on Playstation have NEVER owned a Playstation system before and some are coming into it as a result of the TV show.

People said the EXACT same crap when the 1st game got released on PS5, but, it ended up being one of the best selling games the year it came out.

Also for all the idiots complaining. Playstation at least offer $10 upgrades for some of these games. Have you EVER seen a re-release by Nintendo, Xbox, Bethesda offer that?! No I didn't think so.

darthv7275d ago

releasing a newer version because the previous version is not physically compatible is not quite the same as taking a perfectly good existing game that already works on the newer platform and repackaging it under a remaster brand for that newer platform and then repackaging it AGAIN for the same platform.

And that whole line of *insert people here may not have had a PS before* is a line of BS. PS2 is the most selling platform in history... chances are very good a high percentage upgrade to the PS3 and then upgraded to the PS4 and are upgrading again for the PS5. So dont give me that line of bologna. you'd rather swallow every bit of Sony propaganda instead of call them out for milking (and yes this is milking) this game. You know there will be a PS6 version and likely a PS7 remaster.

Of course i am purely speculating on the 6 & 7 but there is a high degree of probability because of what they did already between 3, 4 & 5. And you defending even the $10 upgrade when most of the XB games get free upgrades is just another sign of your blind loyalty. I didnt think it possible and gave you benefit of the doubt but now I can see i was totally wrong.

Chevalier75d ago (Edited 75d ago )

@Darth

Again your examples are absolutely terrible. Repackaged games for new audiences isn't new with the high cost of development. This release is timed for people that are new to Playstation coming from watching season 2 of the TV show. If you're surprised and annoyed by this then stop gaming then. It will happen if there's some new Skyrim, Fallout, Doom or whatever TV show comes out too.

Also you're the guy who defends Xbox for this crap too. Skyrim releases were done while owned by Xbox.

Also you mentioned the PS2, repackaged games happened all the time then too. If you think that repackaged games is going to go away with the skyrocketing cost of development is going away then sorry cover your eyes and plug your ears and pretend like an idiot then. You will be complaining daily soon.
