After 3 weeks of squeezing in a match of The Last of Us Factions as and when I could, I’ve finally finished both the Firefly and Hunter journeys (so I’ve guaranteed that the platinum is in my own hands, in case TLoUF2 is dropped and all TLoUF players migrate over). It was very tough at first due to the vast majority of TLoUF players being very experienced and very good... and it can be quite toxic to noobs who are struggling to get up to speed (I took some serious abuse at the start there) but by the time I’d completed 164 matches (the bare minimum in the best case scenario) I was not only really enjoying it but felt quite comfortable.
@colonelkilgore thanks, that last trophy was frustrating but otherwise I enjoyed the game. I like what Supermassive are doing and have the next preordered already.
Many players left in that tLoU multiplayer? That Plat is still on my to do list.

@WCB if you really want to get TLoU mp (factions) done, do it now bud. I got a feeling that Naughty Dog are gonna drop TLoU Factions 2 soon and when they do every single player will drop TLoUF and move on to the sequel.
There are loads of people playing it for the moment though, I was really surprised. You can always find a game, trouble is 95% of the players on there are dead serious and treat it as such... damn good players too. It’s quite the acclimation period.
If you need any tips on how to get your 2 lots of 12 weeks completed (the mp trophies require that you get your group of survivors through a 12 week period for each of the two factions) let me know. I can give you some useful info.
@colonelkilgore decided to take your advice and began Factions today. I can see why it's has a name as a great multiplayer experience. It's pretty addictive. I just hit week 3 and got my first -60% mission.
Yeah, if you want to share any tips it'll be much appreciated.

The basics of which are, don’t worry about any of the +/- missions until you get the 100% potential loss missions (weeks 6, 8, 10, 11 & 12}. When they occur, the best (safest) missions to select are Gift Giving & Healing. I used Gift Giving 1 & 2, and the Healing 1, 2 & 3 on my Firefly run and Gift Giving 1, 2 & 3, and Healing 1 & 2 on my Hunter Run.
Also, when on a 100% potential loss mission, ALWAYS select to play Interrogation (as opposed to Supply Run and Scavenge) as Interrogation will more often than not run longer than the other game-types & therefore provide you with more time to achieve your personal mission and avoid all of your survivors dying.
That’s pretty much it, if you end up having any specific questions though, just @ me and I’ll be sure to get back to you.
@RogerRoger dude, I finished off the plat on Tomb Raider just the other day... it’s very easily achievable. I still have a number of friends going for it if you want me to put you in touch with them?
@RogerRoger fair enough Rog. The only people who are playing it now are purely trophy boosters and therefore very co-operative in terms of helping you do the things you need to do to pop the various mp trophies. It probably took me about 15 hours.
You obviously have a full plate though so have fun with the games on your docket 🙏
Just in case anyone is wanting to pop the online trophies for Watch Dogs and Watch Dogs 2, let me know as I’m gonna be playing them both this month and the next.
@RogerRoger yeah not really a photo mode kinda guy, I do like having a decent in game pic for my banner on my PS4 profile page but the fact the PS5 doesn’t seem to support this takes away the one reason I had to take screen shots.
@Bentleyma- I always preferred it that way, if I'm honest. I always thought the RPG elements in the first game were really weak and just made the game needlessly cumbersome. Streamlining the whole thing worked in its favour, I think.
@RogerRoger Notable observation, Rog. Didn’t realize I could monkey the system to have two different banners.
I recently changed my banner on my PS5 from the GoW shot I took for the screencap contest a few months ago to a Control shot I recently took and I need to check out how it might be formatted to look differently on the PS4. I did notice that the PS5 didn’t seem to match up the colors quite as well as the PS4 does, and the pic didn’t have the same impact on my PS5 screen as I had hoped. Like you say, hopefully an update gets these things a little more fine tuned.
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”
@RogerRoger so I just checked and you’re spot on. I guess the different lay out (4 tiles in front of a faded background that is actually your existing banner) just meant I didn’t notice it. Don’t think I like the layout as much if I’m honest.
@Th3solution I loved the game. I think it's fantastic. It's mostly just wandering around talking to people like a slightly more interactive visual novel. But because it's broken up into lots of small chunks and most of those chunks contain an interesting development it rarely lulls.
Platinum wise it's easy. I got the platinum when I finished the game. There's weird little RTS missions and there's a trophy for getting S rank in every one of those. I dropped the difficulty down to casual after the mission because I knew I just wanted the story and I S ranked every one on the first try. So if you do that you'll be fine - not sure how tricky it is on normal or hard.
@johncalmc I picked this up a while back too, not sure it’ll be my thing but the response to it was so overwhelmingly positive that I have to give it a go. Read somewhere that the plat should take around 40 hours, does that sound about right?
