THE BETA IS UP! Just search "Uncharted 3" and scroll down a bit until you find it. That's not all, as with this beta, it unveils a new game mode..."HARDCORE!" Plus, with the beta, we can get a few free goodies, if we play enough. -Download the UNCHARTED 3 Beta and receive the exclusive UNCHARTED 3 PSN Beta Tester Avatar! -Complete 10 matches in every mode of Competitive Multiplayer and receive the Exclusive Beta Decal Pack 1! -Complete 5 matches in every mode of Co-operative Multiplayer and receive the Exclusive Beta Decal Pack 2! -Complete 4 Treasure Sets and receive the Treasure Hunter’s Starter Pack! -Rank up to level 25 in the Beta and receive a handsome reward of in-game cash on day one! SWEET! Naughty Dog did NOT need to give me reason to play the beta every day until it ends, but, well, I'm not going to complain. ;D Gonna go download it now.

Also, just so you guys that are worrying about the size of the beta, it is only 1.6 GB.

I'm playing the beta now. Well, haven't played yet, just toyed around editing my character appearances, and my player emblem. Didn't do anything fancy with my emblem, just made it look like a Weighted Companion Cube from the Portal series.

Well that's weird. I was randomly logged out of the beta, and now every time I try to log back in, I get a pop up saying "Error Initializing Manager".
The hell man?

Good, I'm not the only one who's having that problem right now. Oh this is lovely. Shortly after posting my last post, I went to Naughty Dog's official UC3 beta forum, and there was a topic there about this exact same problem. I just went back to see if there has been an update and the forum is conveniently down for "maintenance"......

Oh, wait, never mind, Naughty Dog revealed what the problem was, there was a problem with the Plunder game mode, so they had to take the beta down to quickly fix it, also the beta forum is back up now.

Guess I'll have to wait until I get home from the movies tonight to see if it's working.

Is the beta glitchy for anyone else? Here's what happened with me:
-The framerate was bad... I mean really bad. Not sure if it was due to lag or not. - I somehow slipped through a wall and died. - The framerate finally let up and then... the game froze.

Plus a game that isn't due out for months yet, so this isn't near final anyway.

So I played the demo for El Shaddai last night for the first time, and, my god....so beautiful. Sure the gameplay is kind of repetitive, but I'm willing to let that slide for a game that is such a visual treat. Definitely the front runner for my personal pick for "best art style". I prefer Outland's look way more, and the gameplay there is freaking sweet.

You guys do know what the entire purpose of a beta is, right? Christ's sakes, give them a week or two before the "Of f***ing course. Why in the hell does Sony seem to have a problem with everything?" posts roll out. This is the first time the Uncharted 3 MP has had any sort of stress on it. The entire purpose of any beta is to find these bugs before the retail release, not to give you a pleasurable playing experience.

The entire purpose of any beta is to find these bugs before the retail release, not to give you a pleasurable playing experience. He said that in response to Naughty Dog's official UC3 beta forum being down for "maintenance" shortly after the problems started rolling in within the beta. I entirely know the purpose of a beta, HOWEVER, we can't help Naughty Dog fix anything if we can't even, you know, play the damn beta. Of course, now it seems like the problem has been fixed(I've been able to play multiple matches in a row now without any lag issues). A beta doesn't have to be fun, but a beta does need to be playable for it to even begin to serve its purpose. If we can't play it, we can't help the developer.
