    Maybe my expectations are wrong in this regard - what sort of length of play-through are people expecting in the single player dlc?

    I imagine it will be maybe a quarter or third of the full story. Around 4 or 5 hours maybe?

    honestly, I don't expect it to be any longer than 2 to 3 hours max.
    Closer to 2 hours I'd say.
    Unless they are using the same levels as in the main game, creating new level areas just to explore in a single player experience is intensive work and 4 to 5 hours of running around, solving puzzles and fighting enemies would take a lot of work.

    I would imagine work on the environment would have taken place immediately after the relase of TLOU they were doing casting there recently werent they. I was just guessing a length but again it would also depend on the player. Main story took me 13 hours but I know others who took 5-7 hours more.

    Main story took me 18hrs, i took my time :)
    Usually dlcs are short if they are single player experiences and not just online maps. I dunno. I'm no expert. Just guessing really. The longer the dlc the better of course. Value for money and all that :)

    The new maps are being released over the next 24 hours. No Idea on an actual time when it's available to us but here's a trailer for it



    And they've also made some bug fixes and changes with the 1.05 patch.



    The best news there is that we won't see as many ties for interrogation. Really love that game mode but the amount of ties are ridiculous in it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,160 ✭✭✭tok9


    Anyone else played some of the maps?

    I've got a bit of time in and so far they all seem pretty good but I think that about all the maps really (downtown to a lesser extent)

    Favourites would probably be Suburbs and Hometown.

    Oh also, only seeing now from other players, that the flame-thrower is a beast of a weapon.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,885 ✭✭✭DuckSlice


    i havent downloaded them yet, but i think i might now one of the nights, getting sick of GTA, i just seem to be spending my time in load screens, and ****e.

    The flame thrower is a great job but only close range, if you are last man and are in a small room it is a great job :)

    Been getting my ass handed to me on the new maps, haven't a clue where I'm going yet. Getting the hang of Bookstore but the other maps see me getting shivved and picked off from snipers constantly.

    Played the new maps last night and I'm the same, getting absolutely mauled! I like them tho.

    It's good now when you join a game that's already started you don't lose a day and doesn't effect your clan size either


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,160 ✭✭✭tok9


    I reckon I'll be on tonight.. i'll be on the ps3 anyway so if anyone is on send me a message and I'll switch over!

    The Single Player DLC. The Multiplayer didn't hold my attention, traded it ages back but would like to play the SP DLC. Wish it was out sooner.

    You shouldn'ta traded it! All peeps I know kept it. Multi was really good imo. Im glad they didn't release it much sooner. Proves that its actually added content not just stuff cut from the main released then shoehorned in at a later date for an added fee a la CoD, Bf etc etc


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,843 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Ah I need to trade games to get new ones. Never know though, might get it free off ps+ for december :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,803 ✭✭✭Benzino


    Really can't wait for the DLC, loved the single player and the multiplayer was excellent :-)

    I hope it isn't tbh... Not that I didn't like the story of it but we know what happens. We know the events and we know where it will be played. I'm hoping it's something completely new.
