Massive Uncharted 3 Multiplayer Update

[Luckay]

A new Uncharted 3 patch (1.11), set to release by the end of May, is going to include a feature that was in Uncharted 2's multiplayer mode, called The Lab. The Lab is a playlist, in which features game types that are designed for fun.

Here is a list of what the patch will feature:

- The Lab returns and we begin the playlist with a T-bolt/Pistole-only map. We will be rolling out other game types as the year progresses.

• The Lab will contain treasure drops from whatever the base game type is (the T-bolt/Pistole map is considered Team Deathmatch)

- Elimination Mode has been added.

• Elimination mode will contain treasure drops from Team Deathmatch

- Message of the Day returns – a daily message will pop up with news, tips, and other information.- The following custom game settings are now available via a menu in Custom Game mode called “Advanced Settings.”

• Respawn Time
• Buddy Spawning toggle
• Health Multiplier – by percentage
• Sprinting toggle
• Weapon Mode (Default, Basic Weapons, Pistols, RPG-7)
• Medal Kickbacks toggle
• Boosters toggle
• Grenade Throw Back toggle

- If you leave a game, disconnect, or turn off your PS3 mid-game, it will be counted as a loss.- Kill and deaths no longer count towards your career stats in Plunder and Team Objective modes- The technical hooks to make the Game of the Year edition (EU) work properly with DLC were added- In Team Deathmatch mode the Airstrip and London maps now are listed with “No Intro” variations. If these variations are selected you’ll start those maps with no convoy events.- The Long Ranger Medal can now be earned by achieving 3 kills at 50 meters in a match instead of 3 kills at 70 meters.

There is also a video where the Game Director and Designer explain what is new:

So no new trophies? Guess it's time to trade in Uncharted 3.

Why would you even say that?

Not sure what you mean.

UC2 added to their MP with a fuck-ton of trophies. If UC3 isn't doing the same, then I don't see a need to hold onto the game any longer and allow it to decrease further in value.

By the looks of it, Naughty Dog is trying to make UC3's MP similar to UC2's with every update (see the lab feature). So I won't doubt that there will be something (cheap DLC?) to come out for MP with the addition of trophies.

Sure, content-wise. But hasn't the 'last' DLC for UC3 (as per the Fortune Hunter pack) already released? I don't see them adding trophies this late in the game's life cycle...at least I'm hoping they wont.

Well they waited this long to add these "new" features into the main multiplayer game mode so I wouldn't doubt it.
