🔥🔥👀It looks like the Naughty Dog's game director is still working on the upcoming Last of Us multiplayer game

Hayyyy everyone isn't Insomniac and Remake released last year. We will be OK, at least I know I will. Not to mention Spiderman, MM all heavily built around the original assets and game so I know that sped up development. What ND is aiming to do with Factions although an mp mode is large in scope and I'm assuming more technical in certain aspects.

Ok u clearly don’t know WTH u are talking about factions 1 was just a tacked in multiplayer mode factions 2 is a complete game set in entirely new location new characters new mechanics with its own story mode. It’s a multiplayer narrative experience with in the last of us universe not just a mode. And let’s not pretend spiderman1, mm and spiderman2 are completely unique experiences that don’t rely heavily on each other. ND has to create a new experience with new characters, new lore, new environment, pretty much from scratch. Lost legacy is about the same length as Spider-Man mm it was completed faster had entirely new locations and is graphically more impressive than mm. Don’t try to trash ND to praise insomniac. Creating a multiplier well crafted experience can be a lot hard than just a single player one.

I am under the assumption that Factions 2 is indeed coming. However, it will be a normal multiplayer component (most likely attached to the rumored TLOU2 remaster release)

The GaaS plans they had for this game was scrapped IMO.

Meh.

Spend half of the generation working on a multiplayer game we still dončt know anything about.

They needed to release this a long time ago and moved on to another project.

I'm so happy to hear this. Nothing scratches my Multiplayer itch like a Naughty Dog multiplayer... Truly the underrated kings of the 3rd person multiplayer genre

Factions being good always felt like sort of an accident. I was personally offended when I heard NaughtyDog would be including a multiplayer component in TLOU. This was the era of tacked on mp and I didn’t want that for such a serious game.

Since Uncharted 2 I assumed Sony was sanctioning this game mode and ND simply made the most of it. If similar pressure was applied to get the studio to do a sequel I don’t necessarily mind that. The concept is provably great but could use some fleshing out.

Uncharted 4 multiplayer is a joy to play.
Mechanically it is still the best 3rd person multiplayer. It's a shame it never reached its full potential and they kinda killed the base for it but incorporating so many stuff from the Last of Us Multiplayer into it.

But it is a joy to play for sure.

I revisted it a few months ago and still had fun, before that I put in dozens if not hundreds of hours into it. As a matter of fact I think ppl online just parrot the bs that paid ASTRO turfers go online to parrot about how Halo is the end all, be all of online games and Sony doesn't usually have good online games and shouldn't add mp, thats bs. As a matter of fact Uncharted mp and TLOU mp are infinitely better than most Mps out there past and present. I tried to play Halo when I got my S years ago and I thought "this stagnant, draconian mp is what ppl rave about" it felt like an mp game from the early 90s that never evolved. Gears was OK but a shotgun fest and very static, in comparison in Uncharted your swinging around, can climb most things and it's very dynamic. So much better imo.

Naughty Dog wanted to make the Multiplayer. They even said they wanted to compete with the big boys Battlefield & COD when they made Uncharted 3 Multiplayer back in the day.

As for Factions it was initially meant to be bigger but they kept rebooting it since it wasn't up to their liking, but definitely not an accident.

Uncharted 3 Multiplayer remains my GOAT playstation multiplayer. In my opinion probably top 5 best of that generation. These games just happened on the wrong system. If it was PS4 era when they had that multiplayer push, they would have had so many hits.
