hshirako Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Finished the story a long time ago, friend borrowed the game and I'm finally getting it back sometime soon. I haven't played the MP at all before so I'm wondering how many people still play this game. Is there still enough people to complete all MP trophies or will I definitely need to have a boosting partner(s). Also, how many people play during "peak hours"? Thanks.

AdamWolf86 Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 I could boost with you, only problem is actually connecting. I've tried with friends from UK, failed to connect and I've tried with others from around the world and the same error message. Â It's roughly dead online, I've had like two people join in two hours, it's annoying as I only need four trophies for platinum. Â I thought that overlord 2 was bad to connect online, but this is awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotspur000 Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 (edited) I'm willing to boost/be boosted online too. I wouldn't mind trying to get those trophies. But I want to finish my Crushing run of Uncharted first Edited December 30, 2010 by Hotspur000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 The Online modes are virtually dead so boosting is a must if you want to get the online trophies. Also, be sure to wait for your stats to update BEFORE moving on to your next match else they won't count towards ANY of the trophies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hshirako Posted December 30, 2010 Author Share Posted December 30, 2010 Thanks for the replies guys. Looks like I'm going to have boost all or most of the MP trophies. Quick question. How long on average would you say it takes to acquire all MP trophies if completely boosted? The Online modes are virtually dead so boosting is a must if you want to get the online trophies. Also, be sure to wait for your stats to update BEFORE moving on to your next match else they won't count towards ANY of the trophies.  Another glitchy server? Just great... I don't understand why servers can't be reliable at all times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 If you boost for 4hrs a day (like I did) then you're looking at a good month or two, with Gozer's and Overachiever being the most time consuming and temperamental to get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devotheus Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 4hrs a day -> month or two.... wtf, this wasn't supposed to be another bad company for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 (edited) If you can manage 12hrs a day then you MIGHT be able to do it 1 month or less but Gozer's, Overachiever and Payday will take A LOT of time to complete, especially as you can end up waiting up to 3hrs+ for your stats to update between matches. If you don't wait for your stats to update, they DON'T count towards any of the trophies as myself and Crowquilt had to find out the hard way !!!

NikiVv Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Hmm, never had any problems finding online people.. but its been a while since I last played.. also didnt had the update issue back then, took about 5 mins tops.. Its a shame not more people play it, awesome game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As in, if you're doing a campaign and you do one room, you have to wait hours just to do the next room?  The 'bag three most wanted' trophy popped for me after only about 15 mins total playing time and bagging three wanted ghosts. There was no waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 With Campaign mode you have finish all 3 maps and then wait for the stats to update but with the Instant maps you have to do a map then wait and carry on like that until you have your trophies.

Terminator Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 It is very prone to freezing online I'm afraid, more so on certain maps . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good grief, I'd have thought it was a scratched disc, over heated console or network problem. Where are these servers hosted, someone's forgotten basement?

AceSoloMcCloud Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Just wait to you find out how picky the trophies are!  Oh I know, I got Platinum for it in August '09 right after the patch was released. Been working on the Xbox version and a campaign to get it patched, as well as Payday glitches for some PS3 gamers.

It only takes me around 30h to do the online (in one week), and i never had to wait for some stats update before going on another campaign. I'll assume that the online is even more glitched than at the first release of the patch >_> Edited January 31, 2011 by Aka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomdrama Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I never had to wait for stats to update, for Gozers I used a printable list and marked off each job by hand instead of looking at my stats. I got the platinum last March though so maybe the servers have deteriorated since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
