I wonder how they will split it. Whether it willl be one big connected living world like Destiny or it will be split up into menu’s.
Factions is going to make games like State of Decay 3 look like a joke

Wouldn’t surprise me if they copy Destiny’s hub world thing for whatever the story mode is.
For PvP stuff of course it’s just gonna be menus to join matches, unless it’s very much like The Division.
Kinda yeah, and like Destiny.
I could maybe see them copying The Division’s “dark zone” PvPvE and regular PvE zone map thing.
Man what got me excited about this project is Naughty Dog saying something along the lines of “Its gonna have our single player experience in an online game”
If they do a Co-op/PVE world where you can do co-op missions and play/survive in TLOU World like RDR2 online/ GTA online/ Destiny, it will be so awesome. Added with Naughty Dogs attention to detail, animations, Story, action scenes, voice acting etc it will be something that will keep me into online games. Id pay for that.
Plus PVP modes, classic factions and battle royale and Sony will be entering the online gaming world again properly

They definitely need some guidance from Bungie so.... cause even Bungie have made mistakes recently even though they are the best at this stuff.
Like in a story mission, any of the party could skip an essential story cutscene that couldn't be accessed again.....
Balance and stuff like that is also a very fluid situation.
I think they meant the single player style experience. Not theres gonna be a single player mode.
But probably the gameplay plus story will have that Naughty Dog feel to it
Unless/until they specifically mention singleplayer, I would not expect that.
All they’ve said is it’s a multiplayer game.
Of course yeah. Could possibly be drop in drop out co-op, who knows.
Yeah, like the strikes in Destiny we were talking about.... something along those lines I guess.

Man, this would be AWESOME. Dark Zone in the Division was the best, they completely fucked it up in The Division 2.
I just hope you can get loads of military spec equipment eventually to look tactical.
All the different helmets, camo's, boots, pads, holsters and webbing etc etc.
Original TLOU Factions Modes:
Factions MP
Factions MP is the name given to the online multiplayer mode in The Last of Us. Decades after the initial CBI outbreak, and the decimation of the population, if you're not infected, then you're left fighting for scraps to survive. Unfortunately for you, there are many others like you fighting...
thelastofus.fandom.com
As long as these 3x 4v4 modes stick around in F2, and there's duplicate modes or a lobby rule toggle with infected roaming around causing issues for both sides, man, that's all I want. Anything else is value plus, but if they've iterated the previous Factions setup completely out of the product, and don't fufil the one thing people have been wanting, it'll be a let down.Gameplay modes
Supply raid
Main article: Supply Raid
In Supply Raid, each team starts out with 20 respawns, and the goal of the match is to eliminate the opposing team. Red loot boxes are scattered throughout the map, usually out in the open and dangerous to approach without teammates. These contain materials needed to craft items. Health kits are also scattered throughout the map. Craftables are carried over after death, except for the 2x4 which needs to be modified first. Teamwork is essential; being a lone wolf is not recommended.
Survivors
Firefly in Survivor match on "The Dam"
In Survivors, each player has one life per round without any respawns. The first team to win 4 rounds will win the match. Teamwork and survival is more important because of the lack of respawning per round. There are more red loot boxes than in Supply Raid mode, and they are usually located behind cover. Materials from red loot boxes and items crafted are not carried over each round, but armor and purchased weapons do. Note that teams play to the best of seven regardless, so if a game ends in a tie, there is a chance the teams could tie 3-3 in rounds won.
Sudden death and last man standing
Last Man Standing in Supply Raid begins when the last player of one team can no longer respawn and when the player is alone in Survivor. In order to provide some degree of fighting capability, the game provides an extra amount of parts that the player can spend on ammunition, armor, or upgrading a particular weapon. If the player manages to reach a red supply box, the game also awards extra crafting items and even a Machete, albeit only once.
The team's radar also begins to highlight briefly enemy locations about every 5 seconds. No survival skill keeps you off the radar at this point, so if both teams enter Sudden Death, everyone's positions are briefly exposed to everyone in order to prevent camping and maintain the confrontation to decide the match's victor.
Interrogation
Main article: Interrogation
In Interrogation, the teams must locate a Lockbox holding supplies by capturing an enemy and "interrogate" them. This is like an execution, except it takes slightly longer to kill the enemy. An interrogation can also be done with a shiv which takes much less time. The method is the same like regular shiv executions; either from behind an enemy or while an enemy is stunned. Five interogations are needed to reveal the lockbox's location and open it. Teamwork is important, as being killed can be a disadvantage to your team. If the team's lockbox is located, it will need to be defended to keep enemies from unlocking the box. Unlike the other gamemodes, there are no lives, so players can respawn infinitely, meaning "sudden death" can't occur.
Well they split the darkzones into 3 different areas on the map, the PVP was always changing from one area to the other, darkzones got blocked out of nowhere even after I was there the previsous day, also they were a lot smaller, not as fun.
It will be an online game. Im just saying it might be than PVP and have that Naughty Dog magic.
I can’t remember where the original came from, an interview, leak, tweet or a comment from Naughty Dog?:
NAUGHTY DOG
TLOU Online Game
Planned as a Battle Royale but got completely rebooted. Described as a mix of Tarkov and Division with additional modes inspired by the original Factions MP. Single-player-like experience in online game. F2P, first on PS5 with further release on PC.

Much bigger return if successful also. This def isn’t just some little side project for them
This is why I believe Sony will not give up on single player. Because no one would give a fuck about Factions if we didn’t already play TLOU2 and understand how good the gameplay and production levels are. Making multiplayer comes with a baked in install base right off the bat.
Same will happen for Horizon Multiplayer
