[PS3] The Last of Us

[Twigg4075]

The opening to this game is fucking incredible. It really sucks you in and gets you emotionally evolved. I just hope the game can continue to keep me sucked in like that.

 

[CCBrink]

Fuck clickers.

My only real complaint with this game so far is that I don't know where I'm supposed to be going a lot of time :shifty:

 

[x0xHumblex0x]

Bloaters......
save as much ammo and created bombs as you can.
:facepalm:

I get really nervous when I'm out of shivs lol.

Man, this game is so good. Atmosphere, dialogue, and thank goodness you're not of the Nathan Drake school of mass murder (you still murder, a lot, but the whole "every bullet you fire is one you might need later" effect helps a lot -- that and you're made of meat and bones and not whatever super steel Nate was made out of).

Question: does it take fucking forever for anyone else to load their save? Like, almost 5 minutes?

See it's weird. I read a blog on kotaku of "things you should do" while playing LOU. One point was stressing not to waste shiv's and how important they are.

I've literally used TWO in half the game. Once to open a locked gate, once to kill a clicker. That's it. I either sneak past the rest, or kill em with bombs/bullets. One of the other points from the article was "you don't need to kill everyone, you can sneak through areas"...and I do that alot too.

Yes

Yes

Okay good. I was afraid my disc was jacked up.

:yep:

Last night I fired it up, loading comes up after 2 minutes. Crawls along...takes a minute to get to 45%...then DROPS to 10% and crawls back up....to 75%...then drops back down like 20%....then crawled back up to 100%. Last 5 % was agony. Watching it creep along at 100th's of a percentage point at a time. Jesus...

To be fair, there's no loading in the actual game at all, so I guess it worked itself out.

Yeah, doesn't really bother me, I was just worried something was wrong.

Instant restart encounters in exchange? Yes please.

 

[killgod]

Yeah I love how fast it transitions from you dying to playing again.

I'm not sure why they did that. It worked out great for me though because it released the day I came back.

This game is hard as fuck even on the easy difficulty setting

Really? I'm glad I went with Normal then. I contemplated starting on Hard.

 

[Swarley]

I think it just depends on how you play the situations.

Yea even on easy clickers get that one hit kill and as soon as you move in front of them they pounce on you. I've gotten stuck several times retrying areas 4 or 5 times before finally getting past it

I think it's pretty easy on normal.

All it takes at certain points against Clickers.

When the game goes Manhunt with human enemies though, shit gets interesting.
