Uncharted 3 Multiplayer Details from GamePro Magazine




In the latest GamePro Magazine some new info is revealed about Uncharted 3 Multiplayer.
First of all, Naughty Dog wants Uncharted 3 to be the "go to game for PS3 multiplayer". Developers also admit that UC2 MP could have been better, but they didn't have enough time to work on it. Naughty Dog cited titles such as Red Dead Redemption and Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood as influences on multiplayer. Also after all the lab tests for UC2 MP Naughty Dog said that "One thing we learned from UC2 mp was that damage/health should be "the same or similar to single player".

O último número da revista oficial PlayStation do Reino Unido, oferece nas suas páginas novas informações e detalhes de Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception.

Ficamos então a conhecer que depois de Drake ter estado perdido no meio das gélidas montanhas do Nepal em Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, o protagonista do jogo vai agora passar a maior parte do seu tempo num dos maiores desertos do mundo, o Rub' al Khali.

A Naughty Dog diz ter feito muita pesquisa, prometendo um deserto fielmente reproduzido, e contou à publicação que o jogo irá incluir tudo aquilo que os jogadores esperam ver num deserto, incluindo tempestades de areia e miragens. A areia irá mover-se de forma real alterando a geografia local e criando um ambiente dinâmico para Drake .

Se pensam que o jogo vai-se passar apenas em zonas secas e áridas do deserto arábico, estão muito enganados. A equipa revelou que os jogadores vão poder contar com uma grande variedade de cenários onde se incluem a cidade de Londres e um templo no meio da selva.

Outra das novidades incluídas no artigo da revista é que neste terceiro jogo da série, Drake vai poder conduzir uma moto em algumas secções.

No que toca à história, ela é baseada no Lawrence da Arábia e no seu fascínio pela cidade perdida "Iram of the Pillars". O argumento ainda está a ser escrito e alterado, mas já se sabe que a vilã Katherine Marlowe faz parte de uma ordem secreta que remonta aos tempos da rainha Elizabeth I.

No que toca à jogabilidade, a produtora revelou que haverá um novo sistema corpo-a-corpo, exemplificando com uma cena em que Drake pega numa garrafa que está numa mesa e parte-a em cheio na cabeça de um inimigo. Haverá também novos movimentos furtivos e uma nova mecânica de jogo.

O título vai contar com a presença de personagens que participaram em jogos anteriores, e a Naughty Dog mais uma vez confirmou que Drake's Deception não deverá ser o último jogo da série.

Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception é um exclusivo PlayStation 3 que será lançado em Novembro do presente ano.

No 1º Uncharted temos um nível com motas de água, que acho que até ficou bem conseguido.

Yap , por acaso estava porreiro. Cumpria a exigências . . . Gostei .

Cada vez que me recordo de Lara em cima da mota , já não me lembro em qual episódio da série , até me arrepio todo . . .

Uncharted não será uma trigolia

Em conversa com a Official PlayStation Magazine,
a Naughty Dog revelou alguns pequenos novos detalhes sobre Uncharted 3 e
a série no geral, revelando que os fãs podem esperar mais para além do
terceiro jogo.

"A série Uncharted nunca foi concebida como uma trilogia," confirmou o estúdio à revista.


O deserto que vemos no primeiro trailer é o Rub' al Khali e vai
confrontar os jogadores com "todas as coisas que esperariam num
deserto,", como tempestades de areia e miragens.

Para além do deserto Drake e Sully vão passar por templos na selva e Londres, onde se
vão deparar com rufias liderados por Katherine Marlowe, membro de uma
sociedade secreta que existe desde os tempos da Rainha Isabel I.

A Naughty Dog promete avisar se houver uma beta pública e deixa ainda no
ar que mais personagens conhecidas da série vão regressar.

-Marlowe (a vilã do jogo) is much more cerebral type of villain compare to previous villain, having a psychologically manipulative ‘character’ that not only had the muscle to back up her goals, but has that ability to lay your psyche bare.

-Marlowe is very different sort of enemy for Drake and much more interesting antagonist compare to the previous villain.

-Marlowe believes the ring on Drake’s neck is the key to an ancient mystery.

-Drake can rip guns from enemies’ hands.

-Drake will have different ways to approaching an enemy.

-Drake will visiting some familiar places.

-Naughty Dog working hard on many things to archive one goal 'to create a hero with humanity'.

-There was a time creative Director Amy Henning only slept total of some 12 hours in a week.

There are 10 full pages of behind the scenes of Uncharted and some new details of Uncharted 3, fans of Uncharted should really find the latest issue and read it.

Citação :

Breve deveremos ter scans da revista com todos os detalhes.

Sony has revealed two of the Uncharted 3 multiplayer maps at their E3 Sneak Peek event last week according to a poster from Naughty Dog Forum. Below are some new info:

- Offering booster (also known as perks for those familiar with Call of Duty) and a brand new medal system.

- You get medals for kills and then can spend those medals on one-use items like a grenade that splits into three grenades.

- Naughty Dog has also introduced the ability to sprint.

Other video games may connect to Facebook, but upcoming PS3 title Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception is headed into uncharted territory by bringing Facebook and other social media connections directly into the game.

Game developer Naughty Dog is working with Facebook and YouTube to expand the ability to share experiences from within Uncharted 3 sequel to the 2009 title named Game of the Year by multiple outlets — without the need for external tools.

At the start-up menu, players can view a "feed" that shows which Facebook friends on the PlayStation Network are currently playing and whether they've posted updates or videos. Clips can be viewed without leaving the game. Previously, videos had to be handcrafted and exported for uploading to YouTube.

While PlayStation Network and Xbox Live let players send automated updates to Facebook, "I don't think anyone else has gone to that level to bring Facebook within the game. People usually do it the other way around," says Christophe Balestra, co-president of Naughty Dog. "We are the first ones who are doing this."

None of these social-media upgrades affects the single-player story mode, an adventure starring Indiana Jones-ian franchise hero Nathan Drake. But when players get the game, due Nov.1, they can opt in to Facebook connectivity.

The developers hope that the changes make the multiplayer game environment less intimidating and more familiar.

"Our goal for Facebook is to really make sure you can interact with your Facebook friends the way you interact with your PSN friends," Balestra says. "You can talk to them (and) you can invite them to your party. You are going to see icons of people's faces and their real names. So right away it is going to feel bigger."

Players can post screen shots and video clips that show off their customized characters and team emblems. After a game finishes, a player might send out a post that he found a treasure during the game. The first five friends who "like" the post could get an in-game gift. Players also can post videos of multiplayer game action of up to 90 seconds.

"We're trying to create unique stories every time you play, to continue this feeling of a familiar and close-knit community, sort of like how Facebook already operates when friends upload photos and videos of their travel or parties," he says. "We're not just updating your wall with basic things happening in the game."

Those who want to tinker with their videos will have a battery of new in-game post-processing tools. Each multiplayer session is stored on the hard drive of the player's PS3. You can go into that video file and direct the scene to your liking, moving the camera around, adding voice to a character and even sharing the video so a friend can help edit. "You can create your own movie and tell a story," Balestra says.

Past games such as Halo 3 have included filmmaking tools to make scripted videos, but Uncharted's direct link for uploading videos to YouTube is unique.

The best uploaded videos might wind up on "Uncharted TV," which will play in the bottom right corner of the pregame menu.

"People can watch the best plays that we selected," he says. "We want to give you access to all the media being generated by Uncharted within Uncharted."

Uncharted 3 will have some new multiplayer game types, too. A new Deathmatch mode pits three teams of two against one another, and Free-for-All lets eight players compete until the last player is standing. And for the first time, players can sit side by side and play on a split screen.

"If you watch a football game, you talk about it the next day because everyone watched the same game," Balestra says. "This is (to) get people who play to have a better experience."

And, yes: Uncharted 3 will feature split/screen: the video below confirms the highly anticipated component via Naughty Dog’s co-president – Christophe Balestra –

- Haverão novos modos para além do Team Deathmatch (5v5) como Free-For-All e 2v2v2 Team Deathmatch.

- A beta terá 2 mapas vistos no trailer, o primeiro, Airstrip, dividido em duas partes que mudam a meio do jogo, a primeira parte passa-se num enorme avião de carga que está a ser perseguido por camiões, enquanto que a segunda parte começa quando o avião está prestes a descolar, sendo que depois de descolar, todos os jogadores ficam no hangar.

- O segundo, Chateau, passa-se no mesmo nível que já vimos no gameplay do single-player, sendo que é possivel explorar o interior, com muitos niveis e verticalidade, como ziplines, sendo que é mais um mapa dinâmico, com partes do edificio a arderem enquanto o edificio começa a ruir.

- Agora é possível costumizar as personagens escolhidas, tanto heróis como vilões. Há centenas de ferramentas de personalização, desde t-shirts, a calças, entre outros. Podemos até personalizar personagens como Drake ou Sully ou fazer uma personagem própria.

- Também é possível costumizar armas, como a sua cor e aspecto, mas também em aspectos funcionais como miras, cartuchos maiores, entre outros.

- Vai ser possível também personalizar emblemas pessoais, com centenas de possibilidades e 3 camadas, com rotação e funções de escala presentes. No final de cada jogo, o emblema do vencedor é posto numa área do mapa no jogo seguinte.

- Os Boosters voltaram, mas com um novo sistema. Tudo foi reestruturado, sendo que muitos ainda vêem do Uncharted 2 mas muitos novos virão, tendo em conta as sugestões e feedback dos jogadores. Apenas poderemos usar um Booster durante o jogo, embora não tenha percebido ainda o sistema por completo.

- Outra novidade são as medalhas Kickback, que são activadas quando atingimos um numero especifico de medalhas, para desbloquear por exemplo, um RPG como visto no trailer. As kickbacks não são killstreaks nenhumas, sendo que são precisas uma boa quantidade de medalhas para o seu desbloqueio. Como os boosters, podemos também escolher e comprar o nosso kickback.

- Teremos 4 slots diferentes, a arma principal com a qual começamos, a arma secundária com a qual começamos (sendo que depois podem ser costumizadas) e ainda a slot de Boosters e a de Kickbacks. Está explicado também assim que o MP vai manter o sistema de arena.

- Com toda esta costumização, agora é possivel ter um sistema de evolução e recompensas maior, mas no entanto, nem tudo é ganho por acumulação de experiência ou dinheiro, sendo que vai ser possivel ganhar items de tesouros escondidos nos mapas de jogo.

- Vai ser possivel tambem desbloquear uma grande variedade de items durante as Missões. Há 2 tipos de missões, umas são instantâneas e outras podem aparecer a meio do jogo dando um objectivo o qual temos de completar.

- Outra grande novidade é o Power Play, que é activado quando uma equipa está a perder por larga vantagem em relação à outra. Então é sugerido à equipa que está a vencer uma oportunidade de ganhar mais dinheiro por perder alguns beneficios, como os Negative Boosters em Uncharted 2. Isto serve para tornar os jogos mais competitivos e iguais, sendo que pelo que percebi, isto é opcional.

- Seguindo os passos do Power Play, existe agora tambem um modo, Overtime, para jogos que acabem muito iguais, servindo como um prolongamento. Quando o jogo estiver muito empatado perto do final, os jogadores têm oportunidade de ganharo jogo por ganhando por mais de um ponto em relação à equipa adversária num tempo limitado. Se isso não acontecer, o jogo irá para Morte Súbita, similar à Eliminação, onde o respawn é bloqueado, sendo que a equipa do último jogador a ficar vivo, ganha.

- Agora é possível juntar a meio de um jogo, seja por convite ou por desistência de outros jogadores. Assim assegura um jogo sempre com jogadores e com justiça. Não é preciso também esperar que um amigo acabe um jogo, sempre que podemos juntar-nos a ele se tivermos a chance.

- Uma das grandes novidades é o Split-Screen, sendo que podemos jogar com alguém em conjunto no mesmo sofá. Os dois jogadores podem usar os seus PSNID's e todo o seu dinheiro e experiência ganhos nesses jogos irão directamente para a sua conta.

- Um dos objectivos do online de Uncharted 3 é o ambiente de equipa enquanto jogando com amigos. Para isso a ND encoraja o sistema Buddy. Cada jogador terá um parceiro com o qual partilhará sucessos durante os jogos. Podem apanhar Tesouros para o vosso parceiro também. O sistema Buddy permite também que escolham fazer respawn perto do vosso parceiro, livre de situações de combate, sendo que assim podem encarar os inimigos juntos. A chave é então o jogo em equipa que irá distinguir os vencedores dos perdedores.

- É agora possivel unir Uncharted 3 ao mundo real com a nova ferramenta do Facebook. Numa aplicação directa do jogo, é possivel actualizar automaticamente dados do jogo no Mural do Facebook.

- O Modo Cinema tem agora um novo uso, sendo que é possivel criar e enviar clips de jogos inteiros para o Youtube e/ou Facebook.

- Com o Uncharted TV, a ND vai fazer um stream dos melhores videos criados pelos jogadores que poderão ser vistos no menu enquanto esperamos por amigos ou por um novo jogo.

- A beta começará dia 28 de Junho para quem for PS+ ou possuir uma cópia de inFamous 2. A beta passará a geral dia 5/7 de Julho.

É.P.I.C.O

Brutal , cheinho de novidades boas e novas . Repararam no assalto ao avião ??? Uma equipa ataca nos tejadilhos dos camiões e outra defende dentro do avião .

Vai ter algo que realmente é bem pensado, e podia até ser um exemplo para o COD.

Os "kickbacks" vão ser uma espécie de killstreaks, a diferença é que não são ganhos a matar, mas sim a cumprir objectivos.

Imaginem isto num COD, o rank mudava do dia para a noite, o pessoal em vez acampar para matar, fazer choppers e não sei o quê, era obrigado a ir ao objectivo para então ser recompensado.

Uncharted 3 vai aumentar vendas TVs 3D


Jacob Minkoff, designer da Naughty Dog, comentou em entrevista com a revista EDGE que Uncharted 3 terá um impacto tão grande que irá aumentar as vendas dos televisores 3D.

Para Minkoff, o público tem estado a esperar por algo que justifique a compra de uma televisão 3D, e Uncharted 3 será um bom motivo, uma vez que o jogo é compatível com o 3D.

"As pessoas só vão comprar um televisor 3D quando houver conteúdos suficientes em 3D. Estamos a fazer algo impressionante que fará que adquiram esta tecnologia."

Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception vai ser lançado no dia 1 de novembro. O jogo vai suportar imagens 3D estereoscópicas, mas não será compatível com o Move, isto porque segundo a Naughty Dog, o jogo não foi criado a pensar nesse tipo de controlos.

Estes gajos drogam-se com bolas de naftalina!Nao acredito k alguem vai comprar 1 televisao em 3D só por causa do uncharted!

UNCHARTED 3: A Peek Behind The Digital Curtain







The blockbuster success of James Cameron’s Avatar
proved what many gamers and game developers already knew: Motion
capture is the future of performance. The film’s groundbreaking use of
mocap technology caught the attention of Hollywood and the game
industry, raising interest in perfecting the nascent craft with a
combination of new technology, refined processes, and good old-fashioned
acting chops.
“We’ve developed a unique process for motion capture and performance capture for games,” UNCHARTED 3
Creative Director Amy Hennig explained during a recent tour of Naughty
Dog’s cutting-edge new mocap studio in Culver City, California. “We’re
kind of ahead of the pack.” Hennig described the evolution of the UNCHARTED series’ motion capture technology, beginning with the humble stage used to record UNCHARTED: Drake’s Fortune.
It was an outdated, uncomfortable place to perform, equipped with a
camera array that painted the room with eye-searing red light. And its
poor acoustics made dialog recording impossible, so in-game speech had
to be added later.



“We cast very carefully, that’s step one in
any project. If you cast hastily or badly, you’re screwed forever. If
you cast well, you can write any piece of crap and they’ll make it sound
wonderful. Trust me, I’ve done it!”
— Amy Hennig, Creative Director, UNCHARTED 3: Drake’s Deception
Following UNCHARTED’s breakout success, Naughty Dog upgraded to the vastly more sophisticated facilities at the House of Moves for UNCHARTED 2: Among Thieves,
a game that further strained the boundaries of cinematic game
storytelling. The House of Moves facilities featured an integrated sound
stage that enabled Naughty Dog’s team to record dialog while
simultaneously capturing the actor’s physical performances — a
then-unheard of process that is quickly becoming the gold standard for
video-game performances.



An array of 86 infra-red cameras capture the
actors’ physical performances with eerie precision. The studio’s
integrated soundstage lets the actors deliver their lines seamlessly
along with their movements.
Now, with UNCHARTED 3: Drake’s Deception,
the team is shooting on its very own cutting-edge mocap set, the
culmination of years of pioneering experimentation in game storytelling.
Though the sets and props are largely virtual, Hennig and her team make
frequent comparisons to shooting for television. “We don’t have the
luxury of writing a big script in an ivory tower,” she explained. “We
have an outline that we work from and we write the scenes as we go.”
That looser approach gives Hennig and her storytelling team the
flexibility to adapt to script changes or make tweaks based on a
performer’s strengths. “As the writer, I get to learn the actor’s voices
— their cadences, their idiosyncrasies, and I write them right in,”
Hennig said. “Their characters become infused with their personalities.”



UNCHARTED 3′s high-tech motion capture
process converts the actor’s movements into 3D datam which displays in
real time over a simple approximation of the game environment. Later,
animators and artists adjust the mocap data and drop it into the final
game.
Actor Nolan North — who performs as series frontman Nathan Drake but
also boasts an impressive resume of film, TV, animation and game
performance work — raved about working with Hennig’s team on the
UNCHARTED series. “I find that movie stars aren’t that interested in
doing games, but actors are. There is a freedom and a beauty of doing
this that’s like going back to the roots of black-box theater. It’s
collaborative; it’s the true actor experience.” North also pointed out a
rapid shift in the perception of video game performances among actors.
“It’s changed. I know people who used to do video games and told me,
‘oh, eventually you’ll move on to animation.’ And now they’re trying to
get back into games!”



“This might surprise some people, but we don’t
just play Drake and Sully. Sometimes I’m mocapping the guy whose neck
I’m breaking! Sometimes we play as the bad guys…in UNCHARTED 2′s train
sequence, you’ll notice that one soldier runs with a bit of a limp.
That’s me, chasing me, and getting blown up by propane tanks.”
— Nolan North (as Nathan Drake)



This humble array of sandbags and carpentry will
be transformed into a realistic vehicle in the digital world of
UNCHARTED 3. (Right) Naughty Dog pioneered the process of capturing
motion and dialog simultaneously for video game performances,
eliminating the disjointed feel found in some other game performances.



“Amy writes a great script. It’s like a
strong tree, and we just branch from it,” Nolan North says. “If you let
actors go too much with ad-libbing, when you don’t have a strong story
structure, it becomes a mess. We do our thing, and then Naughty Dog
takes it and makes magic.”

Novos detalhes de Uncharted 3





Andrew Kim mostrou uma nova ilustração de Uncharted 3: Drake's Decepcion.Trata-se do "Pelican Inn" um dos primeiros cenários desta sequela de acção e aventura criada pela Naughty Dog.Este

Sem duvida alguma que uncharted é o renascer dos shooter´s em 3 pessoa.
