3 tips for survivor from my experience:
1: Save parts to upgrade your holsters as early as possible. 4 guns is more important than the other upgrades. Next upgrade clip size as you can.
2: Save your vitamins to upgrade health before anything else.
3: If you have a partner with a gun let them shoot when possible to save you bullets. If you are able to stay behind Bill he will shoot away and use his machete, allowing you to jump in and melee.

Others may be able to help me here - Do head shots drop ammo and supplies at a higher rate than other kills?
 
I gotta tell. This game made me better. I mean in Uncharted im able to kill the enemies alot faster with some headshots than before.
 
Just realised something. In the main menu. After completing the game. Ellies stiletto is next to the window.
 
Hah, that's cool. I don't remember the original menu because i saw it just twice, so haven't even noticed any change at all!
 
Yes it changed, i've seen it but thought it was only after patch. Since you have to delete it to gain trophies.
 
I finally bit the bullet and bought a copy over the weekend. I traded in around 6 games to get the price down but I feel £6 was worth it for this game. ;)

I'm only as far as sneaking Ellie out of the first city so not too far in. I feel i'll be playing this in the dark for added intensity.

Yeah, that appeared in the first 'plus' playthrough I did. It reverted back to normal when I started the next regular level of playthrough. It was a nice touch as I thought 'what, was that there before...?'

What's this about deleting the patch?

It's a way to go from Hard+ to Survivor+ without full Survivor play through you otherwise have to do.

Go down and start a new game, you'll find survivor. And if you want to go for a Survivor+ immediately, there's a workaround for it

Taken from ps3trophies.org

To get the game thinking you're on a Survivor+ run without having to finish the game once through Survivor difficulty, do the following:
Delete this game's "Game Data" in the XMB (in case future patches voids this)
Start a New Game+
Complete Chapter 1 of the game, Hometown
As soon as Chapter 2 begins (20 Years Later), pause the game and save. Exit to the main menu
Choose Chapter Select and select the first chapter "Hometown"
Notice you can now select Survivor difficulty? Select it and play the game from this point on to the end.

With the exception of your weapons (which you will have to pick up again), you will retain all of your upgrades from your first playthrough. Meaning any weapon upgrades you've made with upgrade parts or supplements used to increase Joel's survival skills, will carry over. Completing your second playthrough using this method will also earn you this trophy, as well as all the difficulty trophies under it (meaning all the regular and New Game+ trophies).

No, it's helping with things like Comic books not appear where they suppose to be, shiv not open locked doors and fire fly emblems not falling from the trees after you shoot them.

Deleting patch help you gather all collectibles.
 
Why go the easy way? Why not complete it in Survivor and then in Survivor+. Im on Survivor+ run now. Just getting to Bills town

Yeah this. The house Ellie goes to, comic there, doesn't show on mine with patch. I ran that bit like 6 times before deleting the patch to get it!!

I didn't even realize people were having those problems. Does it happen to everyone or random occurrences? I also had no clue there were emblems in trees.:ouch:
 
It was common issue, before patch there was like maybe 3 or 4 emblems hanging on trees but when you shoot them they didn't fall, so after patch they just lying on the ground now, two of them at least.

Oh yes. I'll need a change of pants now and again whilst playing it. Those clickers are so irritating when you come across a few of them.


Also, I was wondering if the patch 1.02 fixes all the glitches people have found since 1.01 came out? I haven't downloaded any patches yet just in case the trophies glitch on me.
 
...I also had no clue there were emblems in trees.:ouch:
Me neither, though I haven't watched any walkthroughs but that would explain why I'm a few emblems short. I should have guessed to look up as ND have a habit of sticking at least a few treasures up high in all of the Uncharted games.
 
Finally platinum'd this game today! Feels like i have big task out of hand and perhaps can finally enjoy the multiplayer a bit more.
 
If anyone else noticed in the PS4 conference, they mentioned Naughty dog making a game for PS4. But what though? Oooooo how exciting!
 
Uncharted 4. No doubt!

Uncharted Gold Abbys was last one, so i think it might be that game about pirates. There was some pictures from their web studios showing two characters in pirates outfits. Blurry once but still some intriguing hint there. :)

NaughtyDog's PS4 title will be announced at the VGA's, just around the holiday season.

It was not made by ND and for sure theyre gonna make more Uncharteds they make money so well out of those games.
 
Any news on the SP DLC anyone?
I've finished the SP yesterday (I work a lot) which has been an adventure, what with receiving the game on release day.
But of course, I am hungry for more.

What an excellent experience, which I had no doubt ND would deliver.
If you are still on the fence over this game, then go buy it.
If you owned a PS2 and never played Ico or Shadow of the Collossus, then you are in the same boat as those who have not picked up Last of Us.

:irked:👍
 
Do the patches reset your collectables? I just started my run on Survival Plus, and all my Firefly pendants and the like are gone. makes it even more difficult to find them all without using guides. 'Cause I'm way too awesome to use such things. :)

I dont think they transfer from normal to +. I went from Survivor to Survivor+ and only my gun updates stayed.
 
Tzun: They actually do transfer, info about whatever you've collected in your first (second, third...) walkthrough is apparently stored on ND servers, so you have to collect only the rest in your future playthroughs. It worked that way for me.

Not sure about the patches though.

I can vouch for this. As I got the trophy for unlocking all doors after I came to the door that I didn't have a Shiv for on my first Survival playthrough. It's important to remember that this only applies to Plus playthroughs.

I've found a couple pf new Firefly Pendants and comics too, though I doubt I'll be able to find them all. I have no idea where the ones that you have to shoot down are located.

Internet helps.
