Completed it after going on a crazy binge the past two days.

The winter part :eek:hmy:

Nolan North as a bad guy is blasphemy! Was expecting it to be his normal voice too so was taken aback by the Irish accent :lol:

Are there more bloaters on higher difficulties? I only came across 6 and 3 of those were in the tunnel near the end.

Joel takes no prisoners. I understand killing the random hunters and David's men, but he was so merciless in killing the fireflies. Shooting Ethan twice in the balls (or gut) then a headshot, and completely wiping out Marlene was a dick move even with the explained motives. I don't think she would've tracked them all the way to Tommy's place.

Is the killing of the doctors in the operating room optional btw? I just took my time and slaughtered them, finishing off the woman with my flamethrower because she was annoying me :/

In terms of a sequel - I imagine Naughty Dog weren't planning on having one and that their PS4 games would be dedicated to Uncharted 4 and a new IP. But the big sales for this game has probably meant a sequel is a formality.

You heartless bastard. I left the rest of the doctors alone

I killed 2 of the doctors I think. I don't believe there are more bloaters on higher difficulties, but you can avoid most of them anyway, except for the first one and when you play as Ellie.
I'm playing through on Survivor mode now, just entered the school. There are A LOT fewer supplies! Even some of the melee weapons laying about on Normal difficulty aren't there any more.

There will probably be some sort of sequel, but not for a few years. ND doesn't tend to rush things and milk their franchises.

Oh, and David doesn't have an Irish accent. You need your ears syringing!

I just completed the game. I think it took me 2 weeks as I didn't want to rush it.

Good game. As others have mentioned, one annoyance is that Tess and Ellie are invisible to the enemy, despite sometimes they're directly in the line of sight.

But when you think about it, wouldn't be more annoying if you were being perfectly stealthy and one of them blew your cover?

It makes the game less annoying to play, but slightly kills the realism. It's really a very minor inconvenience for me with the game.

Yeah, I should've mentioned it as a minor annoyance.

Did any of you encountered glitches? I only got it once. During the mission where
you have to track where Ellie is when she escaped with the horse. There is a cutscene where the horse you're riding got into a trap, which triggers the enemy AI to look for you. I was hiding behind a rock, trying to figure out a way how to shoot the enemy that keeps throwing the Molotov, and this happened.

He won't stop unless you move a little bit forward, which is supposed to trigger the next wave of enemies. Luckily he disappears after that.

Yes. Had some minor glitches and a huge one. A quirky animations when I climbed up something and another when I barged through a door and my play speeded up for a short burst, like double the speed. The huge glitch being the part where you get
The part when you get the car from Bill and are ambushed by the guy pretending that he's hurt. When it went into the action scene where they crashed Ellie became invisible:shocking: There was quite a lot of action in that part and it just looked dreadful. When the gameplay started she was still invisible. Could just see a floating back pack running about:laugh:
I tried to record it on my phone but the phone only had a little bit of battery so wasn't allowed to use the camera.:realmad:

I had a weird glitch yesterday which actually worked in my favour. It was when you encounted the first set of enemies in the hotel. The night before I got up to the point where you first encounter them, waited for it to save and quit. When I returned it spawned me IN the room with 2 blokes.... who were just stood there doing nothing. 2 easy stealth kills right there. In fact there were a couple of others that were just doing nothing, until I threw a bottle to "break the spell". :lol:

I don't know if it's just my TV, but there seems to be an issue with the speech volume when you're actually playing. Sometimes it seems hard to hear what other characters are saying if you're not near/facing them. Gonna play with subtitles in my survivor+ game.

BTW, has anyone heard all Ellie's puns from her joke book? :D

Works like that in real life too Ali...

The friendly AI being invisible to enemies is horrid near the start, but after about 30% of the way through it didn't occur for me once.

Only glitch I got was with Tess & Ellie, and Ellie managed to get stuck on something whilst walking. She looked like she was on a treadmill and only snapped out of it when I decided to run into her.

I saw someone in Wigan yesterday wearing the same T-shirt/undershirt combo as Ellie. :huh:

Struggling a bit on Survivor.

Just reached the massive library(?) shortly after the ambush and all I've got is 2 shotgun shells, 2 arrows and a smoke bomb. Not even got any shivs. And yes I've been preserving ammo. Had to use nearly all of it when pushing the car, and thought I would get some supplies out of the car with the open boot BUT THERE WAS NOTHING THERE. At least I shouldn't need much ammo if I manage to stealth most of the bandits.

Took about 10 tries to get through the school. Runners on their own are fine, clickers alone are fine, but together they are a nightmare. Couldn't even run past into the gym because Bill said we had to kill them all. :facepalm:

10 tries is quite good actually. :D

I agree with you though, it's tougher with a mix of enemies.

Haven't got the nerve to try Survivor yet. Haven't played it at all in a while now.

How is everyone for finding everything? I think after two run throughs, Normal and Normal + I could only get about 110. Didn't get all the doors, and not all of the pendants. I really don't know where I missed doors...

I managed to do it first try but I'm still fucked off. Got the three outside, went upstairs and got 4 there, then got 4 on the bottom floor inside. Strangled all except two which I used my bow on. With the last guy, Joel threw him to the ground and stomped on his head which usually signals there's no else around (if you're doing things stealthily). Was rather happy that nobody had spotted me.

So ran around looking for supplies and the collectibles, when all of a sudden FIVE more fucking guys appear upstairs. They got the jump on me and forced me to less than one bar of health. Had to gun down a couple of them but luckily the rest were derpy and didn't know where I was so I managed to strangle them with a stealth routine again.

Missed the shiv door in that building too because they decided to give me no scissors but two full rolls of tape. :crynaldo:

I was so proud of myself the other day, I managed to complete the main sewer section without being spotted until the last enemy who I took out with ease! :smug:

Anyway, if you intend to do a survivor + run through (which I'm sure you do), here's how to do the library without any problems (I'm gonna assume you've now got the Ellie joke?):

1) Kill guys outside - easy to do this
2) Go to the left front entrance of the building and hide behind the blockade, wait for the guy to walk infront then turnaround and head back though the barriers, then sneak up and take him out.
3) Go to the end of this "left corridor", hide and wait for the guy who walks by the stairs to turn his back, take him out.
4) Go into the back room and take this guy out. You can use the table as cover, watch out for the bottles - you don't wanna knock them.
5) Go up the stairs in this room. Slowly peer out and look right, kill this guy with the bow.
6) Exit
