Next programing hurdle ND will challenge in Uncharted 3.

ND seems to like andtake on difficult programing challenges in each Uncharted installment.

1st was water.

2nd was snow.

3rd is ....

So what hurdle do you think they will challenge next.

Some mentioned sand, but that just seems too much like snow.

Maybe air and smoke/gas. (maybe set in a floating city)

I am curious of every-bodies ideas.

Hurricane force winds blowing trees in the jungle and throwing debris everywhere

Mud? Sand?

Floating city? Nah, that's be too much like BioShock: Infinite. Who knows, maybe they'll do a bit of desert setting.

Water again... in Atlantis? :P

Like this concept.

Maybe they have to get a treasure before a hurricane hits a spot.

That's what I'd really like. Underwater swimming and stuff would be cool.

Mud? Sand?

A city made of marshmellows that is being targeted by a giant magnet so it's melting.

Thick, vast forests that are fully explorable

Floating city would be totally bad ***, won't post much of a programing challenge though cuz that's just a skybox.mystervj

Physics of gases (smoke, clouds, ect in a floating city).

Maybe its just high up at first (say mountain temple city) then starts to float. Trapping Drake.

Maybe they should tackle clouds like Tetsuya Nomura's doing.nervmeister

1. Likely released before Infinite.

2. Infinite (and Bioshock in general) has a very scifi steam punk atmosphere.Uncharted has more or a magic and Indiana Jones atmosphere. So they could both have similar concept, but completely different atmospheres and moods about them.

I see what you did thar.

Definitely water. Water in the original was cool but they didn't nail it. Underwater scenes would be epic, and there's a lot to do there. Underwater explosions, gunfights and loads of other stuff.

How about a decent aiming system?fastr

i hope not, ND needs to move on, either make Jak4 or new IP.

[QUOTE="danjammer69"][QUOTE="fastr"]How about a decent aiming system?fastr

Maybe some underwater action.

Set it in a desert and have real-time sand in shoe propagation?

I don't know, its kind of hard to think of gimmick before game instead of game then gimmicks...

Lots of interesting choices.

I'll add metal and rocks.

[QUOTE="danjammer69"][QUOTE="fastr"]How about a decent aiming system?fastr

It has physics, like bullet spread on automatic guns. There's nothing imprecise about the way guns really work. I suspect the lack of lock on aiming was a problem as well?

[QUOTE="fastr"][QUOTE="danjammer69"] I had no problem with aiming at all in UC1 and UC2. I actually though it was pretty darned good. Not sure what the aiming problem is? Explain please.Pug-Nasty

I'm thinking....

sand.

gaming industry is a lot like the movie industry. you start to see products with similar topics.

Antz vs Bugs Life, Armeggeddon vs Deep Impact.

with Spec Ops : The Line

i expect to see Uncharted 3 to be tackeling sand.

so expect to out at the pyramids of Egypt. i'm guessing.

Snow and Water.

Have you played Uncharted 2,... with a functional controller.

Everyone and reviewers says the shooting controls are spot on.

[QUOTE="fastr"][QUOTE="FlamesOfGrey"] Nah, I just like to call out 360 fanboys who lie about playing games when I see them.FIipMode

That's because it doesn't, the controls are good. Pulling off headshots is easy as pie but if you look at his posting history you'll see how it's only bad for him lol.

I would like to see the Uncharted world be more explorable. But this may be hard as it is a very heavily scripted game.

What I don't want is for Uncharted to become a sandbox-like game.

I just hope that they don't change the game dramatically for the sake of changing it. What they have done so far has worked fantastically.

No reason to mess up a near perfect formula.

I'd like some super puzzles. Like really hard ones.

Desert setting - sand. Maybe Egypt. Although the game should start somewhere completely different, like the middle of Tokyo or Hong Kong.

I'd like to see them get water right (still hasn't been done) and wind along with its effects.

Btw, why is this is System Wars? Shouldn't this be in the Playstation 3 board?

Farts??
