Oh my was that extremely difficult. Playing through on crushing took 17 hours because of all of the dying involved. Now I have all treasures and 980 of 1000 medal points, doughnut Drake here I come! Has anyone else played through on crushing? Your thoughts? And are you excited to see what doughnut Drake looks like? I sure am.

Have you tried it yet? (If you own uncharted). Id say its a tedious but extremely fun play through (2nd or 3rd) of the game

Yeah...but thats a good thing. Naughty Dog did very well in making the AI very brilliant. And in a recent interview they said it was actually released too early and they were going to tweak the AI further. Naughty Dog and Insomniac are wonderful developers right now.

I havnt played Uncharted on anything over Medium lol.

I also dislike the "twist" near the end of the game. Kinda ruined it a bit for me. It makes the "Runner & Gunner" trophy easier to achieve though :P

Congrats. Awesome, isn't it?

Anyway, I didn't find crushing all that tough. Don't get me wrong, it was hard, but I got through it pretty quickly.

Before the trophy patch, I beat Uncharted 3 times - normal, hard, crushing.

Now with the trophy patch, I've beaten it another 2 and a half times - normal, hard, halfway through crushing.

I guess when you play something that much you become pretty good.:P

Anyway, again, congrats.

Just finished Crushing the second time. Doesn't really feel that hard when you know where every single enemy is. This was my seventh playtrough (or eight).

I just recently completed Uncharted on crushing also to get my hands on the platinum trophy. Didn't think it was all that hard, just got to know what startegy to take, took me about 4-5 hours to complete 4th playthrough.

Yes but you need to play through on Hard to unlock crushing. If you've unlocked crushing and need all the trophies then yes, play through on crushing and you will unlock the Easy, Normal, Hard and Crushing trophy.

I found that fire fight to be the hardest one in the Crushing mode (Rotunda fire fight was EASY compared to the airplane scene). Here is what I did:

- Drop down from the airplane

- Throw a grenade between the blocks where the bad guys are gonna run (if you get it right you will kill 2 bad guys)

- Run back to the big wall

- Pop one guy at a time from the corner of the wall, be prepared some guys come to you outside your field of view and will pop up right next to you, be ready to use the brutal combo on them.

Yes but you need to play through on Hard to unlock crushing. If you've unlocked crushing and need all the trophies then yes, play through on crushing and you will unlock the Easy, Normal, Hard and Crushing trophy.

I did the stupid thing and played on Normal first, after you beat it you will get the Easy and Normal Trophies. I got all the trophies on this playthrogh so when I played on Hard I could use all the rewards including choosing any weapons I want.

Now on Crushing, the Weapons Select, Slow Motion and Super Slow Motion are not available.

Another thing that made my life easier was to set Fast Motion to On, even on firefights, and when you are dying too much on fire fights turn that off, the enemies will look like they are in slow motion.

I completed it on crushing too. Not that difficult really. But i am not the kind of player who gets frustrated quickly. I got 100% of everything in Uncharted now. Including the 5 rewards which you need the special character combo.

I'm just about to start crushing difficulty. The game is great fun, hard mode was not too bad and I have played the game enough times to prepare myself for crushing. I have almost every trophy apart from crushing difficulty ofcourse and I just need to find 1 more treasure, something tells me its going to be really hard finding that 1 treasure in the 22 chapters of the game, I guess I'll just have to look at every nook and cranny lol.

Playing through on crushing took 17 hours because of all of the dying involved. Tedsteriscool

17 Hours? You must be joking. It felt like no time at all when i completed it on Crushing. I did skip all cutscenes though, if they count as time

Crushing difficulty is awesome, I'm doing it on Uncharted 2 currently, although it's frustrating, the way that Drake dies makes me laugh, especially the enemies laughing or making comments. Uncharted 1 crushing was much harder though.

Took me less time to beat it on crushing then it did on normal. Was also almost easier since I knew where to go/do and such.

I managed to do that bit in 3 tries. The only advice I can give for that bit is to first kill the enemies closest to you when Nate drops down, then enemies from the left try to flank you, kill them, then run all the way where the second group of enemies came from and take cover for the final round, because if you don't move from the place where you take cover as soon as you drop down, the final 3 pirates will drop down near you and one has a shotgun, so you must keep away from him.

Congratulations! I'm actually halfway through Crushing right now. After playing through the game several times on Hard, I'm finding it tough, but not wholly impossible. Even though it's the last thing I'll need to do before unlocking the plat, I'm pretty sure I'll be playing through it again as it's quite fun.

I platinumed it. Crushing was more tedious than anything - just doing certain parts over and over and over until you figured out the correct strategy. The funny part was that some parts I thought were going to be really hard were actually quite easy, and some run-of-the-mill parts took me forever to get through.

Bowah

Its possible lol. I rem i had similar issues with that place but the best strategy i used which came outa me getting pissed is to charge at them. See once you come down the plane,you gotta rush at them aggressively cause they be coming down pines n rocks,so u get a nice cover in front of that wall,so you pop everyone who comes down with bullets

not sure if anyone else posted a reply to this yet, but I JUST went back and replayed Uncharted on Crushing mode (I beat it on hard a year or two ago) and was stuck at that airplane level for HOURS. It's hard. It is. My problem was that I would kill 80% of the enemies and then run out of ammo (I WISH SO BAD WEAPON SELECT WORKED FOR THIS MODE). So what I did was wait for them to come in close, kill/headshot them (Crushing Mode makes you become better/look for headshots whenever possible), and then in between waves, dodge roll onto the ammo, grab it, and then dodge roll back into cover and reload. it sounds really hard, and it IS, but if you do it a couple times you should get it down, and it will come in handy later in the game too. Hope this helps. Don't lose faith it is possible!

Seriously, CONGRATS to all that have accomplished this. I'm working through Crushing now and it is no joke. I'm literally pushing my way through checkpoint by checkpoint. On Chapter 14 now. Getting there...

I played it through on Hard the first time and didn't think it was that bad, so I seriously underestimated Crushing.

For the most part it wasn't overly difficult. I finished it in about 6 hours on crushing, but that's not to say there weren't frustrations. There were some gunfights that really got annoying, in particular a shootout in the monastery area towards the end where you get swarmed from all sides. It was satisfying to finally finish it.

I'm probably never going to play anything besides normal mode. Honestly I've got many games that are still collecting dust that I haven't even played yet, I want to get through em all!
