Crushing difficulty and checking chapters in the menu

[djippps]

Hello everyone, 

I am encountering a really weird issue. I am in my third playthrough (the first was on medium and full, the second one was on explorer and I went till the beginning of chapter 5 for “the way of the warrior”), which is my crushing playthrough using perks like golden weapons and infinite ammo. 

•  I am currently in chapter 7
• I have never changed in the options (pause menu) the level of difficulty. It always give “crushing” if I am checking there.
• Now is the issue: As in all Uncharted games, I am used to check in the main menu (“chapter select”) the maximum level of difficulty reached for each chapter. I have “crushing” for prologue, chapters 1-4 but only “medium” for chapters 5-6. ?

Have I done something wrong? Is that only a minor standard screening bug in the menu or is it going to block the trophy?

 

Of course, I am not so far of the end of the game but always better to know if I will have to go for run #4 or replay chapters.

 

PS: @MECHnation are you aware of that? (You get a ping as guide writor, I thought you could interested in the subject?)

Just a short update if someone encountered the same issue. 

I finished my run on Crushing. As weird as hell : 

 - Chapters 1 to 4  were validated on crushing difficulty

 - Chapters 5 and 6 were validated on medium difficulty

 - Chapters 7 to the end were validated on crushing difficulty

This is definitely absurd, but I just have a priori to replay only two chapters in the game and they are definitely not the hardest, so I should be fine. 

As I said in the previous message, I only used perks and infinite ammo but never changed the difficulty.

As a general rule I would recommend always to start a new game save and go to the end for the difficulty trophies like "Hard/Brutal/Crushing" and never chapter select on any game that allows this, it will help with not glitching out and having to do additional runs.

This is definitely the easiest Uncharted game to be completed on Crushing due to the new Auto Aim options under Accessibilities. Silenced Pistol + Auto Aim makes every combat encounter a joke.
