Co-Op Shade Survival Mode (possibly DLC trophies?)

[Lord Tony]

Shade mode is a new gamemode too, why is there no trophoes?

Has anyone played the new Shade Co-op arena?
I'm not in Fortune's Hunter Club, but this DLC looks good from what I saw in the Uncharted TV. I don't mind not having any trophies, just wondering if it's worth buying?

It's not worth buying without the trophies because once you finish all 8 levels you start to lose interest. It's perhaps the longest co-op you will ever play but the difficulty is basically normal.

It really depends on you, I bought the FHC, So I got this for free, But if I didn't have FHC, I would have bought it anyway, Why? Well sure you're only facing the Djinn, But it is just like the regular co-op arena (Kind of disappointed there aren't any Djinn Super Heavies), But I love the challenge, Yes its a bit more difficult but super fun w/ friends. Regular co-op arena was too easy, Even on Hard or Crushing, This sure will be a bitch to even attempt on Crushing, But hey if you aren't at level 75 yet or you're thinking of going into Legacy and blazing through it again, Then this is perfect, To me you level up faster playing Shade Survival. The only thing I'm kinda iffy about is not being able to melee the Djinn, for the exception of when the rapist grappler is choking out your buddy, I use to dish out 70+ melee kills a match but nomore.. and I find it gay how the Djinn teleport as soon as a grenade lands close to them, But hey this isn't Burger King, We can't all have it our way. But do yourself a favor and buy it. $6 for this isn't bad AT ALL, $6 for fort co-op on the other hand, Well fuck that. If you do decide to buy it, Add me on psn & we can kick some Djinn ass together.

Played one match of it Tuesday on Normal difficulty. Completed all 8 rounds luckily. it is very difficult, even on lower settings. The Djinn take a shitload of bullets to kill. In the later rounds, the armored soldiers are a pain, especially the ones with the sniper rifles, who shoot rapidly and take you out within 3-4 seconds.

its a bit cheap, but the power weapons spawn for a reason. use them whenever you can

I really wanted a gold trophy for completing shade survival on crushing, too.

Does anybody knows if the survival/horde mode would be great, from out of UC experience?

UC3 has a fantastic horde mode, with or without DLC. UC2's was fun but kind of too easy/repetitive, the AI is much better in 3 and at least for my part it's the most fun "horde" mode I've played next to a few old Starcraft Broodwar Used Map Settings maps (Long live Smash TV). What's better is if you get really competent it's sort of like playing on autopilot, I know exactly what to do in every situation and it kind of just happens, don't have to focus on anything.

*chest pop noise* Oh guess I'll go get that, hey what do you know I'm the first one there. *Wave ends* Internal clock says Grenade Launcher hasn't respawned yet, don't check it. *Heavy Machinegun noise* Oh goodie, toss 1-2 of 4 stockpiled cluster grenades and we don't have to die horribly this wave (alternatively hope and pray). *Match end* 50k+ Points, more kills than the other 2 guys combined, phew that was tough. Am I awake?
