Uncharted 3 Two Year Anniversary Multiplayer Patch and Free Maps For Everyone!


Hey readers, first off, apologies for not posting much in the last couple months, I've been rather busy with other stuff and to be honest, there hasn't been much news for me to talk about. That''ll probably change in the coming weeks, what with Call of Duty: Ghosts launching tomorrow and various other titles of interest starting to pick up production pace. Anyway, down to business, as you may or may not have realised, last week was the two year anniversary of Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception (where has the time gone eh?) and to celebrate, the crew over at Naughty Dog have released a big patch for multiplayer and at the same time, made all multiplayer maps available to everyone for free! In addition to all that, they've also released one brand new map 'Dry Docks' (again, free). For those who avidly followed teaser trailers before the games release, you might recall the name, well it was a map that was going to be included in the retail version but was actually cut for whatever reason before launch. Naughty Dog released a short video to announce all the maps becoming available for free, which I've embedded below for you to check out. As well as the video, I've also included the full list of changes that come into affect with the patch, most of them are warmly welcomed but there are a couple that raises eyebrows and as per usual I'll discuss this at the end of the article in my review section, enjoy.

Black Ops 2 Multiplayer Patch 1.14 Released (Full Details Inside)

Yesterday Treyarch released multiplayer patch 1.14 for Black Ops 2 (PS3 and Xbox 360), it wasn't a very long list of changes and to be honest, most of the issues I didn't even know were occurring lol but I'm glad they're keeping their eyes on the ball and making sure everything is ship shape. There's handful of minor multiplayer glitches that have been nullified but the rest of the changes relate to the various zombies maps. I've posted the entire list below for your viewing pleasure:

PS3 Game Update (1.14) Notes: Aug. 22, 2013


Multiplayer Issues Addressed

  • Fixed an issue which caused strafe and backwards movement speeds to be slower than intended in certain circumstances.
  • Addressed an issue where Players were able to copy other Players’ emblems.
  • Fixed an issue where throwing down and picking up equipment (such as the Bouncing Betty) for a long period of time would cause those items to become invisible when thrown.

Black Ops 2 Multiplayer Patch 1.13 Released (Full Details Inside)

A short while ago patch 1.13 went live for both the PS3 and Xbox 360, this title update brings mix of things including some multiplayer weapon nerfs and the obligatory exploit fixes for Zombies. I should say that while the patch notes that cover both consoles might be quite short, the list for the Xbox 360 is a fair bit longer, due to the fact that the latest Zombies map 'Buried' (not yet out for PS3) had a lot of things tinkered with. I've decided not to added the changes made to 'Buried' because they are all to do with fixing glitches and exploits, which I assume will already be programmed when the map hits the PSN store next month. You can view the list that covers both consoles below:

Black Ops 2 Multiplayer Patch 1.12 Released (Full Details Inside)

Earlier today patch 1.12 for Black Ops 2 went live for both the PS3 and Xbox 360, it's not a particularly long list compared to previous updates but I have a feeling they might've implemented a few behind the scenes changes that weren't noted. Mostly the patch deals with issues such as exploits and glitches in multiplayer and zombies, nothing got nerfed this time, which is a pleasant surprise. Anyway, you can check out the full patch notes for yourself below:

PS3 Game Update (1.12) Notes: Jun. 27, 2013

Black Ops 2 Multiplayer Patch 1.11 Released (Full Details Inside)

Earlier today patch 1.11 for Black Op 2 went live for both the PS3 and Xbox 360, you can read the entire list below. I won't be doing a review of these changes because they're not particularly game changing (a couple of pistols got nerfed), mainly just minor issues that needed fixing or problems that needed cleaning up (mostly stuff for the Zombies).

    Black Ops 2 Multiplayer Patch 1.08 Released (Full Details Inside)


    It's funny but I was thinking the other day that Black Ops 2 was probably due for a game update soon and today we get it lol. Anyway, the video talks about two or three topics regarding what's been nerfed/changed but you'll have to read the full list below to learn the rest, there's a lot more than three by the way. In the remainder of the video, David Vonderhaar (game design director) talks about the upcoming CoD championships (the million dollar tournament) and other eSport events that are taking place. If you're a follower of eSports, you might be interested to see some of the teams that have already secured an invite to the CoD championship event taking place in April this year. In other Black Ops 2 news, apparently micro purchases (for real cash) will soon be available in game and the popular Nuketown 2025 map, could soon be made available to everyone for free but as with any DLC, Xbox 360 would get the release before other platforms.

    Uncharted 3 Multiplayer Patch 1.17 [Initial Details]


    It's a big week for all you Uncharted 3 multiplayer fans, this latest patch has been teased for a very long time and was even delayed because it took longer to complete then anticipated. Before you start complaining, yes I'm aware that these patch notes are not the complete list, it appears that Naughty Dog have released this basic list along with the preliminary patch. I'll update this article, as and when/if new details are released but for now some of the things already listed in the patch notes are worth discussing, you can find my thoughts and analyses after the notes.

    We're starting off the week with a taste of what's in store. This patch will set up everything so we can deploy our biggest update to Uncharted 3 Multiplayer yet tomorrow.
    Patch 1.17 Notes Available: Globally - February 25, 2013 before 6:30pm PST.
