The Last of Us Multiplayer

Was hoping this was something different for them.

I really enjoy survival games but they are always kinda low budget and janky. The idea of an ongoing survival game with ND quality production sounds great to me.

The idea of a another TLOU story campaign with co-op is meh to me

I'm sure it'll be a lot more modes than Co-Op. The Uncharted MP joints were pretty good. TLOU1 Multi was really good too. An expansion on that with bigger maps, modes, setpieces, should be good. If they have a Co-Op campaign along with the Multiplayer modes, that's solid.

Hopefully they'll announce something with the show starting Sunday and give updates soon.

I would love to, spiderman and this as headliners would be a very good year but all we have seen is concept pics. I think its a early 2024 release more likely

Thats by design. they are purposely announcing/showing stuff when its closer to release. they said they used to announce stuff way too early and it hurt development. This is 1000% a 2023 game.

Told y’all all these dudes care about is telling a story

Did you ignore the "this is by far our most ambitious project yet" part

It ain't that difficult. TLOU multiplayer was GOAT level. Just give us the same shyt with a few upgrades here and there. They're overthinking it.

Is this a separate game you gotta pay for or what?

So far their “ambition” seems to always be about a story

Factions is just as important to Sony as Starfield is to Microsoft.

you don’t want your first big multiplayer title to flop out the gate, especiallly one attached to such a big IP. It’s best they take their time with it and put it out content complete.

there’s no reason for them to rush this out

This is facts, it will be a huge missed opportunity if they don't have some type of mode where you scavenge for resources against a bunch of other players while surviving groups of infected on a big map. Especially with the popularity of the battle royal genre.

I'm not a Battle Royale fan, but what you described is a home run. Stevie Wonder can see that.

I’d be in that shyt all day

And not just a hoard mode. But a ongoing survivor mode like DAYZ would be crazy.

If they do this i hope its not just extraction boxes you go and hold X to loot, i hope its a system where you gotta actually go in buildings and clear our refrigerators, pantries, medicine cabinets, etc.

Make it actually feel like you are scavenging like the mainline game

They still talking about a damn story

@ me when they start talking about survival game mechanics, new weapons, enemies, skills, resources, etc.

And “games that trust their audience to figure it out” is the exact opposite of naughty dog. Game design. It’s hilarious they are even speaking that way right now.

It would have to be like that, imagine throwing a brick through the window of a building that an enemy squad is looting to draw infected towards them.
