Playstation Official Uncharted 2: Among Thieves Thread

Crushing was definitely FAR easier on Uncharted 2 than it was Uncharted mainly because there seemed to be a lot less cover in the #1 opposed to #2. There didn't seem to be a huge increase in difficulty at any point in Uncharted 2 either unlike Uncharted which threw in a S.W.A.T team with the sniper rifles and SPAS with little cover and flanking on both sides throughout the last third of the game. Uncharted 2 had the whole mythical creatures thing going on but except the three that you first fight I can't remember another point you were forced to fight them head on.
 
You just have to kill one of them in that fight and then use the crossbow. In the other fights you normally have access to a decent weapon from the start, but just shitty AKs in that fight.

This. Once you get used to the crossbow the whole last part of the game is a breeze. Plus it's silent so you can finish the guardians off without being detected by anyone in the rooms with "big clashes".

Weirdly enough, I had more trouble on hard than crushing. I died a good bit in hard, but crushing was easy. Learning curve, maybe?
 
It would be harder if the enemies were more aggressive on Crushing, I didn't notice any real difference, they might have been slightly more agressive, but if they were I didn't notice. You normally have time and cover to pick most of them off so that they by the time any of them get near you, you can melee them. They try to make it challenging but not too challenging. After I finished it on crushing I changed difficulty to very easy to get the last couple of trophies, and I never needed to take cover.
 
Tbqh, you can beat most of the game with stealth. The majority of the firefights can be completely avoided if you've been in the level a few times already. The only difficult part I found on the harder difficulties was the...er...commander, I guess he was, on the train. Other than that, just hit the normal enemies from stealth positions and you've officially learned how to beat UC2 on any mode :wacky:
 
I don't ever use stealth, I find it much easier to shoot the shit out of people. I found the commander guy pretty easy, I just stayed at the back of the train, you can switch sides to avoid grenades. I always have plenty of ammo for the rifles, so I kill them with the rifles from distance. When they get close I switch to the pistol and shoot them in the head.
 
It is, but it saves ammo to just crack everyones neck. :wacky: I usually used all the sniper ammo I found on the level taking out shooters like 6 cars infront of you.
