Uncharted 3 Patch 1.02 Official Change Notes

*Update* Official notes are now out!

Several users on the Naughty Dog forums have confirmed a new patch is available for Uncharted 3. The patch is a 33mb download which upgrades the in-game version to 1.03.009, and seems to be the long awaited ‘big patch’ that Naughty Dog have been teasing over the last 3 weeks.

Technical

• Fixed the missing Motion Blur effects (for Single Player only)
• “Alternate Aim Settings” added to the Options menu under Camera options (for Single Player only)

Multiplayer

General

• Settings bug fixed: all controls being set to flipped mode setting will no longer change all controls back to default

Gameplay

• Medal streaks won’t reset if the host migrates to another user
• Blindfire targeting adjusted so that opposing players past a certain vertical angle above and below won’t be hit.
• Allow grenade throw while scoped
• Tuned Pull Down range from 1.5 meters to 2.0 meters
• Lowered the player running speed when players run ‘n gun by approximately 15%
• Slightly increased the turn radius of run ‘n gun
• Slightly decreased the turning speed during Sprint
• Objective points have been moved from co-ooperative to the competitive tab in the in-game player stats

Technical

• Fixed an infrequent hunter spawning issue in Hunter Arena when the match round switches
• Fixed several cinema crashes
• Locked fast-forwarding on convoy sequence in Airstrip TDM and train sequence on London Underground TDM to 3x maximum in Cinema Mode
• Fixed certain cameras in Kick Offs and Pull Downs
• Fixed a late join skin bug with locked content
• Fixed a split-screen Buddy treasure pickup bug
• Fixed duplicate medal problem causing bad tabulation of a few medals to the player’s career stats

User Interface

• Objective points now show up in the player’s Competitive statistics tab instead of the Cooperative statistics tab
• Added a Facebook Sign Out option
• Added the Add Friend functionality in the Facebook tab
• Fixed voice icon for mics not appearing in Matchmaking lobby
• Adding missing weapon stats tracking for certain weapons that were not being recorded to the player stats
• Fix for not displaying the entire Online ID within the “Players” column of any leaderboard.
• Fix for a user having an online ID containing fifteen or more characters created in uppercase format and actively using a voice comm device.

Server

• Matchmaking now waits for double the number of players in the biggest party in the room to be present before starting a game (to prevent parties from being split frequently)
• Players no longer able to join party that is already in Matchmaking

Undocumented

This section contains changes which users have noticed but were not documented in the official change notes.

• Strafing has been changed/nerfed in general. There appears to be a slowdown when changing strafing directions, therefore making the trademark Fleet Foot shuffle impossible to do. Naughty Dog have admitted this change was unintentional and have since fixed it.
• Stopping power has been buffed.
• Three team deathmatch wins counting as losses has been fixed.

Unconfirmed

• Dragon Sniper recoil has been adjusted
• Although EvanGM has said otherwise, there seems to be extra ‘aim assist’ added, where when you move your crosshair over a target, it will slow down.
