How is the multiplayer though?

I'm just trying to fit BF:Hardline into my schedule first as the beta is till this weekend.

The multi player was quite fun for me. It's not fast paced though, and team work is essential. The first time I joined a game I got my ass handed to me while running and gunning. You have to complete both the Firefly & Hunter journeys for the two trophies to complete the platinum. There are other multiplayer trophies as well, but they don't count towards the plat. You should get most of them during your journey though.

Tip : All difficulties are unlocked from the word go, so don't start on easy/normal, but rather hard (or survivor/grounded if you're a freak). It's really not that more difficult on the harder levels, just less of everything. And during the tough sections, the game does tend to give you what you need, and if used right, it should be more than enough.

No spoilers in this, feel free to watch. Quite interesting none-the-less.

It really is a masterpiece of a game. It doesn't do anything groundbreaking (despite a pretty much technically perfect game), the story is really nothing incredibly unique or special, but Naughty Dog and the actors really nailed the characters and you just can't help but be sucked into their journey. I don't think I've ever been so emotionally affected by a game. Initially upon completion I was like, "That's the end? How boring.", but as Beotek said it really stays with you and I found myself thinking about it over and over again, doing a lot of reading online about it and eventually deciding the ending was pretty perfect. It's the game I whip out to prove to anyone games have come a long way since being a childish way to pass the time. Really looking forward to the live action film, although I really can't see them duplicating the characters faithfully, but I have hope seeing as ND are writing the screenplay. And then of course the eventual sequel. I'd love for an older Ellie to be the main protagonist.

This is still a game I need to play. Damn the lack of spare time and horrendous prices on PS4 games!

So now I have to play through first with Survivor and then Survivor+ ?

If you play on Survivor then + it unlocks all the trophies below that difficulty.

Pro tip: At the end of the Sewers, simply stay close to the door you can get straight into a cut scene and skip half the fight.

The very last door? Or earlier in the sewers? When I played it on Survivor that last bit frustrated me quite a bit, but eventually got through.

Also, I had a glitch when I played my Survivor+ playthrough. During the tunnel section leading up to the hospital I did not get any bloaters. Not one at all. And here I was saving up molotovs and fuel for the flame thrower. Did have fun with them on the clickers though.

It's the final door where Joel and Henry have that stand off with the waves of clickers, attack the first wave then keep close to the door and you should be able to skip most of the fight.

That could have saved me a few grey hairs...:rolleyes:
