That kinda sucks, but I was playing moments ago and didn't experience any issues. Incoming .... 'Must be second rate PSN, can't have nothing to do with this being a Beta' comments from certain groups /

donthate3912d ago (Edited 3912d ago )

Except these games are released annually, and work for the most part fine every year.

I find it surprising they should have issues at all. It's not like these network problems are "unknown" with every sequel.

I don't think the problems has anything to do with PSN per se, but the article do indicate the PS4 due to some settings?

TKCMuzzer3912d ago (Edited 3912d ago )

Beta testing is used for the devs to test different settings at their end and to check how everything runs, just because it's released every year doesn't mean there won't be issues. It may be deliberately struggling because they switched something their end to check server load or who knows what.
Articles like this are not warranted, devs open up their games for beta to get feedback and check connections and servers and search for bugs, things will go wrong as that's the plan. If we have people moaning and writing articles on beta's having issues then devs won't bother.
I've been in many beta's and this one is extremely smooth compared to many.

Articles like this do no favours to what the beta is trying to achieve, it's written for one purpose and one purpose only....clicks.

Genuine-User3912d ago (Edited 3912d ago )

It's a beta.

I have not had any issues yet.

sactownlawyer9163912d ago

Same no issues here. No issues on any of the twitch streams I watched. *checks who submitted story...great gamer* that explains the click bait title.

TwoForce3912d ago

Same with me. I don't have any issues. It's the beta, but it's still need to fix.

Swiggins3912d ago

I had a bunch of problems trying to play yesterday. You power up the beta, play a couple of games, and then the game will REFUSE to put you in a lobby.

The paint-shop also doesn't work like it's supposed to, very glitchy.

When I do get to play, I have a fucking blast, but it's obvious that Treyarch has a lot of work to do over the next few months.

poor_cus_of_games3912d ago

Oh for the love of God it's a beta. It's supposed to test network stress. That's one of many tests being done.

Malacath3912d ago

This is what beta's are for. Solve the problems before game is released.

This could be a good thing for xbox one owners as hopefully the server problems will be fixed by time the xbox one beta is released.

NO, that can't be... No! I can't... Really?/s

Cacabunga7d ago

They for sure chose the worst way to deal with it

-Foxtrot6d ago

Funny considering Bruce left half way through development and now we get told there was an internal conflict with the story direction.

Makes you think…

HectixRose7d ago

I think it was good decision, if he was still alive, he would have been a mascot just like Kratos, drake and many others. These old dudes gotta die for new characters to take center stage with their own storyline. They keep dragging the emotional baggage into many sequels and eventually the story just turns into absolute shit show.

JEECE7d ago

It was ironic because people complained heavily about the story in the Uncharted games not having sufficient stakes because all the key characters always survived, despite the dangerous situations they were always in. Then ND killed a character in a more serious series and everyone lost their minds. Just shows that people don't always really want the thing they say they want.

CantThinkOfAUsername6d ago

I thought the more common complaint about Uncharted franchise was how the main cast are the good guys acting so nonchalantly while killing hundreds in cold blood (aka the dissonance between gameplay and story cutscenes). They just did it again in Part II.

Soy7d ago

Didn't have to kill him. Just have them part ways or Joel can "retire," whatever.

DarXyde7d ago

I don't think he would necessarily need to become a mascot (and besides, technically, I'd say Ellie is... So regardless, someone was going to be).

From a narrative perspective, I do think it has a similar effect to Ricky dying in Boyz N Da Hood: very likeable character, and you're really motivated to see the get back—in this case, it's more intense because it's an interactive experience. Most people hated Abby, but I get what they were after with portraying the cycle of violence and revenge—unfortunately, the game appears to want to take the side of the bad people.

But I will say that if Joel survived, it does become harder to tell an interesting story. What COULD have happened is an exploration into the rift between Joel and Ellie after the trolley dilemma events of the first game. It could have been interesting to see Abby out for revenge at the same time Ellie hated Joel.

Ashunderfire867d ago

Sorry just had to say this lol! RICKYYYY!

Man Cuba Gooding Jr was miscast in that movie, but that part was cringey it was sad and funny at the same time man.

Ashunderfire867d ago (Edited 7d ago )

I understand but the way they went about killing Joel, was poorly executed. Even the show of the Last of Us games tried to improved it, but it was just as bad. Well at least Joel got to know the reason why he had to die, before the death happened in the show. That part gave us the full context, but the game just let it happen with no pay off.

Joel death should have been a midway thing through the story, so we at least get to play him a little more with Ellie. Abby didn’t need to be this Hulk looking woman, but more like the show Abby which is a beater idea in my opinion.

The only ND game that was so disappointing to me I couldn't finish it.

pwnmaster30007d ago

Honestly as much as I loved the game, they could have just not killed him off.
I get it creator vision and all but killing a character that made you millions is just wrong imo. At least have him go down fighting.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle7d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk777d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
