So this sounds like they'll make a separate TLOU MP game later? Idk. Hopefully not years later.

I don’t think multiplayer fits with the tone Naughty Dog seems to be going for in Part II, every NPC has a name, they call out in anguish when you kill their allies(Including their attack dogs), Neil Druckmann talked about feeling uneasy with the violence. I can totally see them deciding to release the multiplayer separately to not detract from the points their story is making.

this aint xbox cod and 12 yr olds werent on TLOU like that

Plus there's been party chat for most of the game's life. There's also privacy settings so randos don't send you their filth. The a$$holes were very easy to avoid this gen.

bytch nikkas happy now:mjlol:

Ready to throw a GOAT game into the bushes because of no MP:skip:
Shea butter moist ass generation:dead::deadrose:

Breh, gamers have been complaining non-stop about Cyberpunk being first person only for over a year now, they're entitled as shyt. :heh:

The lack of MP is at least an acceptable complaint because the first game had it.

A lot of y’all seem young as fukk:russ:
I’ve been playing games since you had to write down codes just to continue a game..
Where all you had was an single player experience unless you were FGC gang or playing Mario:russ:
Where there was no DLC or previews of games unless it was in a magazine:mjlol:
You mad because a studio wants you to focus on the narrative of the game first and then they may release MP..
This is their biggest endeavor..
People played and praise The Last of Us for its story and characters..
Not it’s damn MP:skip:
nikkas ain’t running around in TLOU cosplay as MP man:mjlol:
(Granted that was a nice little cherry on top)
You are missing out on what ND wants for this game..
To give the fans and customers the experience of story..
And you bring up genres of games:skip:
That’s why Shooters, Third Person, RPG, Turn Base, etc fans exist:skip:
Not everybody wants to play the same style of game..
And they shouldn’t have too..
Play what you enjoy..
Companies are always fukking up games because they listen to these ludicrous ass demands from players..
Trying to put every damn element into a game that has no business having said request:skip:
I can understand if you were mad about paying for DLC content that was already on the disc at launch..
And they make you pay for it..
Hell..
I can even understand them making you pay for costumes, loot boxes, etc..
But to quote a HOF NBA player..
WE TALKING ABOUT MULTIPLAYER..
MULTIPLAYER:what:
Entitled ass muthafukkas:dead:
I`m 26 going on 27, i don`t think i`m as young as you think i am. Either way i don`t see age having to do with anything that i wrote. As i stated earlier i personally play games for a great story "first and foremost". That includes TLOU series. Honestly, i dead ass never played TLOU multiplayer. Blasphemy, i know.

So, how am i mad about multiplayer when:

A) I chose not to play it in the first game
and
B) The story is "most importantly more than anything else" (the definition of "first and foremost") to me.


Also as i stated earlier i heard the multiplayer was great, and successful. So for the other people in this thread that did play the MP in the first game, enjoyed it, and were looking forward to it in part 2, and are just voicing their opinions. How exactly are they entitled? This isn`t God of War. I don`t think that series ever had a MP to remove to begin with. I played and praised TLOU for its story and characters, like you said. But I would be foolish to believe people stopped there like i did.

I`m sure there are people who wanted to download, or rip the plastic off TLOU2. Put it on and go straight to MP because of all the entertainment they got out of TLOU1`s MP. There are people who after completing a game. Like to put hundreds of hours online with their friends. All the way up until the next installment releases.

If Sony or Microsoft (moreso Sony) announced tomorrow that on their next generation console they`re removing multiplayer. Wouldn`t you think that`s weird, and a step backwards? No matter how much better the console improved in other areas. It`s even worse if a stronger console releases later, and MP returns. That would strongly suggest (imo) they only did it for double dip purposes. But, that`s just what people are speculating about with TLOU2.


You said i brought up genres of games. If you`re reffering to Cyberpunk, and Fallout 76. You have to understand. The decisions the developers of these game are making\made is recieving major backlash from even critics. It`s high risk, and not good businesswise.


You said "companies are always fukking up games because they listen to these ludicrous ass demands from players". Ok, Fallout 76 for example. The only thing ludicrous was the devs, and them going the route of online only. The fans were expecting a true Fallout sequel. Not demanding one. People knew the game was a cash grab, and going to be a failure once they announced online only. In the end it was a failure.

Now i think Cyberpunk will turn out to be a success. But there are people (of all ages) who are not fukking with it anymore, just because there`s no third person view. First person isn`t as popular as it was many years ago. The smart thing for them to do would`ve been to give us the option to switch between first and third person like Skyrim (A classic game from last generation), or ironically, the Fallout series. It`s not anyone being entitled, or demanding anything. It makes sense to give us that option. Not doing so is always going to lose you some customers.

Were people even playing MP like that on TLOU? I never fukked with the MP in the first one.

The outrage is surprising me too, I had no idea people played it and loved it to this degree. I had first played TLOU via PS Now and they didn't allow MP or DLC stuff if I remember correctly, so I just played the Single Player and dipped. I loved the game a lot though, so when it went on sale last year, I bought the Remastered Digital Edition immediately during the E3 week and beat it again. Never thought to touch MP cause again, I had no idea it was a big deal.

...But since yesterday was Outbreak Day, and it's been over 16 months or so since I last played... I was thinking of re-downloading it and finally giving this a shot. :patrice: Cause if everyone is this upset over it not being included, then the MP must've been something special.

It was simple but balanced for the most part. You could use tatics to outsmart people it gave me uncharted two vibes all over again

I like it a lot and I still play. If you do decide to start just know you're gonna be food for a while. The MP is best when you're playing with friends who communicate (yeah you gonna have to use that mic breh). While some really good players can carry their team, the solo for dolo COD tactics will get you bodied a lot.

My squad usually win against a team of randos.

I don't understand why anybody upset about no MP? God of War have no MP and they love it. Also, I barely playing MP on The Last of Us too so I don't see no big deal.

Some games are meant to be a SP game, not MP. That's the problem with MP, if you'all wanna MP then we not gonna have DLC stories for SP. Man, fukk MP.

Its painfully obvious majority of you on this no mp shyt are one, or a combination of the following...

Casual gamers at best.

Didn't own a ps3 or were heavy on the 360.

Have not been playing ND MP's since uc2 (2009)

Hopped on the ps4 wave becuase you had no choice due to the dominance this gen and didn't even play tlou day one.


Which makes y'alls opinions irrelevant as fukk to me.

All these DLC and microtransactions are the reason ND has the resources to even make a game of this magnitude.

ND already juelzing and making statements yet coli nikkas cant get it. Ole why does GTA6 need online types :scust:

Type of nikkas who play the game on normal with one hand on the controller and the other hand eating pop corn.

fukk the SP, that shyt getting red boxed without a second thought for the disrespect. I was ready to preordered the season pass deluxe version too.


Nd :ufdup:

Y’all dudes out here sounding dumb af. Having mp doesn’t mean the sp will be bad. As was the case with the first one. You “I’m a sp purist” ass nikkas can’t seem to comprehend that I guess. The only folks out here not playing mp games are old nikkas and trash nikkas. Which are basically the same person. Did the first one need a mp? No, was the mp a surprisingly and unique gaming experience that was completely different than anything out at the time? Absolutely. They clearly stated there would be an mp in this game so this news is of course gonna upset some folks including myself. I don’t buy sp only games full price anymore because I don’t replay them. So Hopefully they release something afterwards. I don’t like most mp’s out because everything is fps so I’ve been anticipating this shyt forever. I hope they have something cooking up though. ND has nvr failed me since UC2
