One of the biggest releases of all time; Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, which raised the bar for many gamers is still continuing to impress millions of gamers as time passes by. This weekend, Naughty Dog is giving gamers exactly what they asked for, and should provide an excellent challenge for even the most skilled players.

Naughty Dog is giving the hardcore fans what they want by giving gamers only 65% of their normal health. From Friday, December 4 at 10:00 AM PST (What time is this over here?), until Monday, December 7th at 11.00 AM PST, all multiplayer games will be played on the equivalent of the single-player “Crushing” difficulty level. Boosters will still be allowed within the multiplayer.

    The 65% health doesn’t really bother me that much but i think it should have its own playlist labled “hardcore”

  2. MakaiOokami Says:

    Why were people asking for this?

  3. Timewarp Says:

    i dunno, why do gamers ask for a lot of things?

  4. KwietStorm Says:

    Doesnt frustrate me even a little bit. The game feels SO much better now, and I’m playing a lot better with less health. Getting more kills and dying less.

  5. Dre Says:

    the reason they changed it is cuz there were a lot of noobs cried about how it take too many shots to kill some 1cuz they cant aim… they go full auto w/ ak47 and bullets go all over the place lol

    i gave it a try for 10 matches, its way too easy to kill ppl for me especially w/ m4. takes no skill to kill ppl now guess ill w8 til monday when health go back to normal

    wow, dre’s explanation makes a lot of sense… a bit bashing on the people who suck at the online (like myself) but sensible nonetheless. if anyone would bitch about the game… it would be those who suck at it. I just dont play online because I suck so bad. the game STILL has a fantastic single player mode, but I guess it is ND’s job to make life easier for the people who dont want to try harder.

    I’m fairly good at the game and I think it takes just a few too many bullets to kill someone, it also does what it was intended to do and and speeds up the gameplay in team deathmatch and any other games. I like it with the pacing a little faster t b o.

    this doesn’t frustrate me

  9. kirobz Says:

    You know what frustrated me? Was the stupid punishment when leaving online matches. I don’t leave matches but sometimes I get DC. I got DC once and I never played it again because I don’t want to lost my money in-game.

    The lowered health is way better!, Voted to keep it at naughtydog.com. Oh and bitching about getting penalized for leaving a match, Fuck you! You are the people that piss me off. Most of you back out cause your getting you ass kicked and if you get disconnected don’t use dial up for a connection, I haven’t been disconnected once. Glad ND Did this. In lost planet you had to turn your console off to leave a match, made people stay in the room, I guarantee it.

    @Dre
    So would you come to the conclusion that anyone who feels it takes too many bullets to kill someone is automatically a noob?

  12. JohnnyTruant5 Says:

    @KwietStorm
    You know what’s the best way to make a point against someone? Pretend they made a blanket statement when they didn’t. Notice where he says “he reason they changed it is cuz there were a lot of noobs cried about how it take too many shots to kill some 1cuz they cant aim… they go full auto w/ ak47 and bullets go all over the place lol”
    Now, i’m not new to the english language so i’ll take a crack at this. They changed it because a lot of people that weren’t trying hard enough to be accurate were complaining about how hard it is to kill somebody. Since ND can’t prove they all just don’t have any skill, they try this out. If you complain that it’s a bit to hard to kill someone(I kinda thought so too, but I didn’t play a lot) AND you spray everywhere with an AK then yes you are automatically a noob.

  13. Dre Says:

    if they hold down trigger w/ ak47 and stand still while they shooting then yes. if they actually strafe and burst fire then no. but that wasnt my point im not taking shot at any1… im stating facts y they r doing this test

  14. BigWoopMagazine Says:

    Wow, this wasn’t frustrating at all. Actually, it was too easy. I got so many killstreaks, and was using a pistol constantly, its so overpowered with this reduced health! It really makes it stand out who knows how to play this game and whos just running and gunning. I’m not really sure if I want them to keep it like this, but a separate play list would be really cool.

    I was hoping the frustrating part was sudden price drop or deal that 1-2 million people missed out on

    …but that’s just the greed in me talking.
