finally got a few aussie games today, 1 or 2 of them i hosted too.  completely different game playing on par with the other players, it's really smooth & far more rewarding.  unfortunately those games are far too few & i would've already turfed it if it wasn't for the upcoming tournament here.

[Jykel]

been off the radar with music stuff.

I hear ya graph, unless we squad up, when I play solo I get laggy as hell players I just cant hit.  lept on for a bit last night, even squadded up, we had a few players I would put 6 revolver shots into at real close range, not one hit marker.   melee a guy with spiked club, game pauses, and said guy turns and hits me instead.

def need region locking in next patch of DLC, the finder currently looks for close n optimal games, but then goes global, so just give us those options explicitly.

A full squad with comms can overcome even bad lag..we have proven that many times over.

[GraphicX]

yeah but what's the point in forming a team just to squash randoms in overseas public lobbies ?

[Aromaci]

Has anyone noticed the hearing capabilities of the infected can be quite inconsistent? Sometimes they can hear like a bat and other times you can let off a molotov in the middle of the room and nothing.

[GraphicX]

i found that when trying to attract multiple of them to the one place (ie. throw a glass bottle, get them to go there & then hit the lot of them with a molotov).  was pretty frustrating when it didn't work when it should've.

[GasClown]

I started to notice a lot of inconsistencies and glitches on my second play through... they weren't as noticeable in the first run probably because I was so engrossed in it. It's definitely not a perfect game but what game is? The AI I didn't have a problem with because I usually played stealth, either avoiding them altogether or just stabbing them from behind to clear the path. I hardly ever threw a molotov unless absolutely necessary... always had 3 of everything in my backpack.

I found it a lot more noticeable on survivor when in some areas, because of lack of gear, you needed the infected to hear bombs and things to get them to move to a another part of the level.

Yeah - I only played a bit of survivor (first couple levels) as I ended up getting Tomb Raider, Hitman and The Walking Dead, which I'm still to play.

FYI Y'all: Nauthy Dog are doing an AMA on reddit:

[Aromaci]

EB are advertising to try and get people to trade in their copies of 'The Last of Us'. Hmm... I wonder why?

I'd tip better margins on the traded copies than the new ones, but if retail want to retain the support of the platform holders and big publishers, seems a funny way to go about it!  Been playing more of the online though, and reckon it's tops, wouldn't trade this one even if I had finished the SP (which I haven't started yet, but will, really looking forward to it but finishing off what I'm playing first).

[Dunny]

Wont be getting rid of this one for a while.

[GasClown]

I just can't believe Axe has got this game and still hasn't played the SP. The guy must be mad.

No comment .  I just like to play one 'story' at a time (not counting Vita, as I tend to drop in and out of things on that), and started AC:R first.  I'm sure TLoU will be freakin' excellent when I play it, and it will be soon (although possibly after Spec Ops as well, just to further underline my insanity, lol).  Am being careful to avoid spoiler material as well.

[SmokeyPSD]

I used to be like that too Axe. Then I got too many games and moved too slow. Now there is no system

[Axe99]

Haha, good luck Smokey!  It used to be easy when there weren't as many top notch games.  Now we have to be a bit pickier, the tyranny of choice!

Started Last of Us single-player on Sunday, and playing an hour or two a day - it's freakin' awesome!  Incredibly well done, it is - the first 2-3 hours are exceptional .  Not that you don't all know this already .

I was about to say... have you bloody well finished it yet.

[Axe99]

Haha, not finished, although I'm sad every time I save (which I'm doing manually every half hour or so - I'm sure they've probably fixed it by now, but better safe than sorry) and see that I've done however many % (25 so far) - I don't want it to end!)
