I'm jealous of you RJ.. that sounds like it could have been amazing fun.

It COULD have been. But it wasn't. The guy just stood in the same spot looking up and down for all 5 rounds.

M2AF! ANYONE UP FOR SOME LATE NIGHT GEARS 2 SESSIONS?! I WORK AT GAMESTOP

Oh come on. I've never said that. :lol

However, because my profile says I work at GS, I get SOOOOOOO many requests for codes and otherfree shit. Like I have any :lol

Well, he was busy having his mind blown from down being up and up being down. That probably shook him down to his very foundation.

I think I'm getting on now, anyone game?

Do you have any codes and/or free shit?

No for real. People will ask me if I have pre-order gifts. T-shirts, codes, key chains, you name it. People STILL bug me about 48 hour and the GTA IV 1 month cards (I got three of those on my desk).

Can I have a GTA IV 1 month code then?.. I mean, it's just on your desk.

if you said nothing then I wouldn't have asked

TU3 and the Snowblind map pack, baby! :D
you know it! give me a dedicated Elimination DLC playlist and i'll be giddy like a 10 year old on christmas morning. being able to put those Combustible maps to use would be nice.
 
Still amazes me that EPIC can make such a great multiplayer game and then fuck it up by having a shitty netcode :-(

Two games in a row now where i am the only one on the team.


1 vs 5 LETS DO THIS...

are you going to be playing peggle all night or are you going to join us real men?
 
I'm on right now and will be playing for another 30 minutes 'til 24 comes on. It's up in the air after that.

Matchmaking alone = scary

It's taken 5 minutes to find an "opposing team of similar skill."
 
Yep, I had a guy on my team running around in circles shooting his shotgun in the spawn area the whole match. And that can't be just by chance, or he was gone and his controller was in a weird position - you have to pull out your shotgun when you spawn.

Beautiful.
 
My xbox live name is pelicansurf, if you guys want to add me. Me and my roommates play occasionally. Me and my roommate who own the game (my other roommate just has a live account to play gears with us) are pretty beastly and I wouldn't mind playing with you guys.
 
What is the difficulty on Gears 2 compared to the first game? We're talking playing on the least difficult setting. I've heard Gears 2 is rather easy.

Roughly the same on Hardcore. Insane on the sequel is much, much harder imo.

Really?

I felt Gears 2 was a lot easier than the original on all modes. A lot of that has to do with the fact that there weren't nearly as many cheap enemies (exploding Wretches). Gears 1 could be very frustrating, where as Gears 2 felt like a challenge without being frustrating.
 
Good job last night, ladies. We went 7-0 in our matches and if you take into account the 2 or 3 matches where the other host quit out due to us absolutely destroying them, we'd be around 10-0 for the night, I'd guess.

Don't agree at all. Gears 2 relies on way too many trial and error scenarios which result in extremely cheap deaths. Gears 1 had way less of that, had close quarters firefights that didn't require you to kill 'x' amount of players/bosses/things in 'x' amount of time or go back to your last checkpoint game design.

Yup, good times. That comeback win was awesome. After TU3, there are only two things left for Epic to fix:

1) Host migration

~OR~

2) Real time stat tracking.

I'd take either or. If you get a kill, it should be uploaded to your stats immediately or between rounds. Every round won or lost should be uploaded after it is completed. If your team has more rounds won before the host quits, you get the victory and the quitters get a loss. Real time stat tracking would discourage quitting big time.

Just the good ol' days of 3 weeks ago.

Which is why we might want to avoid overplaying Gears. :lol

I'll be on tonight at around the normal time. I'm sharpening my shotgun right n-

Gears 2 is easily one step behind in challenge then gears 1 is, insane in 2 is hardcore in 1, etc.

I agree. I played GoW1 on easy (I NEVER play shooters), but I'm currently doing GoW2 on medium - which actually seems easier. Should've picked hardcore from the start, can't really bother starting over atm.

I also suck hard when it comes to shooters but found Gears 1 challenging but not overbearing, except for the final fight with RAAM, who I cannot beat. Sounds like I'm going to enjoy Gears 2 if it's a bit on the easier side.
