So I found out from someone who finished the game that the modifier unlocks from the first two games (one hit kills, turn on guns, ammo, etc) are all missing from UC3. Apparently the only unlocks are some behind the scene videos and artwork. I couldn't care less about UC multiplayer, and those unlocks were a major reason why I replayed both games multiple times. To me this is a big deal, and pretty lame.

Am I alone in putting such value on these unlockables?

I liked Fat Drake.

I'm going to be depressed if Obese Drake is not in this.

To be fair, he totally could.

WHAT!? I mean, they are one of the biggest reasons to replay the game, if not THE biggest reason. Fans loved it. Why would they remove it? I refuse to believe that. It can't be true.

Changing to a gas mask dude and running around with an infinite ammo revolver in slow-mo reminded me of the old days when I replayed games with cheats/mods. Bummer, but not much of a loss.

Wait. No Fat Drake? I know its a small thing, but it really bums me out. Ah well, wasn't buying this right away in the first place. I'll wait for whatever GOTY happens. I've loved Naughty Dog for years, but I'm ready for something not Nathan Drake.

Aww, that's lame. I'll still get it though, but it reminds me of GTA IV.

yeah kind of disappointing
 
They even had to take out the cutscene viewer although they speculate that that may be patched in. The cheats/modifiers are just a complete loss tho

What about Skins!? I wanted to play London Drake.

@Stealthmaster86: No skins either. It seems only art & behind the scenes.

The lack of Fat Drake there I can understand. The rest? Not so much.

It's not much of a huge loss, though. I just hope it doesn't end up as DLC.

I would lol at a fat Drake, they should have kept that. Otherwise, I like playing the game as mean't.

Maybe you can play fat drake in multiplayer instead :D

Don't worry Don't worry they will come out later as DLC and all you need is a wallet!

I loved turning gravity off so much!

Simply put: LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME. T_T

I only found out about them like a week ago, so I don't really care. I think cheats are kinda dumb and serve for extra 10 minutes of gameplay at best.

I'd love for this to be DLC, I just don't think they should sell it to us.

Reminds me of when the modifiers got taken out Call of duty...

Uncharted multiplayer is terrible, it hurts to even think about.

Sounds like they just ran out of time.

It's unfortunate because those were always fun but chances are they just didn't have time to test and work on all that extra stuff while working on their multiplayer system a lot and finalizing the game for release. Naughty Dog isn't the biggest studio and they've been pretty busy.

Interesting. Well at least it will keep the challenge on the hardest difficulty. They were nice additions, but I don't know if I mind that they took it out just yet.

Donut Drake, R.I.P.

This is unfortunate news. I am actually reconsidering my purchase because of this. I still really want to play the game, but, I also have no interest in the multiplayer so there is really no replay value here. That's too bad. Thanks goodness for rentals I guess.
