Uncharted 2: Multiplayer Gameplay: Beta Plaza

This is the trailer for the upcoming game Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. In this trailer we show you the multiplayer mode in the level Beta Plaza.

Please comment / rate. Enjoy and thank you for your time.

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves will only be released on the Playstation 3 platform somewhere in 2009.

Gameplay

Uncharted 2 will feature new gameplay mechanics, such as stealth action segments, and will change the climbing mechanic to allow free movement over walls, in a manner similar to Assassin's Creed. Nathan will be able to flip over certain pieces of furniture to use as cover. The game is also stated to have no loading screens. Drake himself will have a darker side in this outing, and the player will learn what makes him a thief.

The game director for Uncharted 2, has revealed that the artificial intelligence of the enemies will be updated to match the new action-stealth gameplay. Enemies will have peripheral vision, so that they will hunt for Nathan if he briefly appears in their vision cone. Additionally, the enemies will interact with the environment more, following Nathan as he climbs on buildings or jumps from ledges. Nate will also be able to take advantage of riot shields both as a defense mechanism and an offensive melee weapon.

In addition to new gameplay mechanics, the game engine will also be revamped to take advantage of Naughty Dog's increased understanding of the PlayStation 3's architecture. Naughty Dog are aiming to maximize the utilization of the Cell's SPUs, as their estimates for utilization in the first Uncharted were around 30%. As a result, the game is expected to have more realistic environments and animations.

Multiplayer

Uncharted 2 will feature both competitive and co-operative multiplayer. The co-operative multiplayer will allow a maximum of three players to take the roles of Nathan, Sully and Chloe and will feature missions involving gunfights, platforming, and teamwork-based objectives. Players will also need to assist their comrades should they become critically injured or be grabbed by an enemy.

The competitive multiplayer will allow a maximum of ten players to play against each other. Two competitive modes have been revealed, "Deathmatch" and "Plunder". Deathmatch features two teams of five, with one team acting as "heroes" and the other as "villains", and players will be able to choose their own appropriate character models (such as Nathan, Sully and Chloe for the "heroes" team). Players will also be able to select two Boost abilities which will assist them in the matches themselves.

Plunder is similar to the traditional capture the flag game mode, and sees each team attempt to capture the gold treasure from a central point in the map and return it to their base; the player carrying the treasure is slowed down a great deal, and may also choose to hurl the treasure away at any point, in order to keep it out of reach of the enemy, or to pass it to a teammate.
