Uncharted 3 Gets Patched Up, Classic Mode Returns

Uncharted 3 has been patched up yet again with numerous updates and fixes to its multiplayer mode, which surprisingly enough enjoys a large userbase for a game that isn't Call of Duty or Battlefield.

The new update brings back Classic Mode, updates matchmaking, and contains a host of changes to the game's tournament system. 

The patch is now available across all territories. Logging into the game will prompt you to automatically download patch 1.15. 

A portion of the patch notes we culled from the Naughty Dog Official Blog can be seen below:

Matchmaking

Players will be appropriately matched according to Legacy level in matchmaking.

Team Balancing

Team balancing will now take into account players’ Legacy level.

Tournament

New gun skins for Tournament tier rewards will roll out over the next several months. The new guns skins this month are the Fireball M9, Dragon Sniper and FAL-SS.

New Shade custom pieces for silver and bronze tier. The new pieces are the Shade Gas Mask, Shade Belling Mask, Shade Headphones, Shade Dark Vest and Shade Biker Jacket.

Treasure drops can sometimes be tournament tickets

Progress towards permanent tournament prizes now appears inside of tier screen menu

There is a new leader board for single tournament scores

Players can see all Players’ Tournament Tier in the scoreboard during a match. This will happen only if the player is ranked in the Tournament

Spending a tournament ticket increases your treasure drop chances for that match. This also makes rare treasures more likely to drop.

Players will now receive a small amount of points based on their kills and deaths for losing during a tournament game.
