After bringing a new-and-improved version of The Last of Us to PS4 last month, Naughty Dog announced on their blog that they arestill working on smoothing out the matchmaking experience, which had a rocky start following the game’s release. Naughty Dog wants the world to know that they’re very much aware of the issues are working hard to get them fixed as soon as possible.
“We’ve been working hard to alleviate the long waits in Factions matchmaking some of our multiplayer community have been experiencing. We are working on resolving this issue for those in our community who are still affected.
We know this can be frustrating and the team here at Naughty Dog wants everyone in our community to know that working on this issue continues to be our number one priority.
Over the last couple of weeks, we have deployed LiveUpdates and Patch 1.02, which have resulted in some significant improvements, but there is still more to be done to reduce the matchmaking wait times.”
In July, they promised even more DLC — all multiplayer — will be coming to The Last of Us Remastered in the future. The first batch consisted of cosmetic stuff, which didn’t go over too well with fans, many of which were likely looking for something a bit meatier. In an attempt to appease their disgruntled fans, Naughty Dog has released two new multiplayer maps for free.
“At the end of July, we teased some new multiplayer add-on content which included a glimpse at new maps for Factions. We’re glad to say that we’ve decided to release these two maps for free on both the PS3 and PS4 in appreciation for all of your continued patience as we work to resolve the matchmaking issues.”
