Well, yeah. They SHOULD have implemented a comprehensive ranking system like Killzone 2 or Call of Duty 4. That would be awesome. But it's a bit late in the game for that. I'm not too disappointed tho. At least it fixes some of the problems associated with having your public rank being tied to TruSkill (it's still being used for matchmaking tho).
Ok, I just uploaded these bitches to tinypic and now it's time to repost them with a lazier, more forced version of the stories I just had with them before I fucked up that last post.
Not gonna lie, I was about to post this one saying that the bullet trail you can see was actually a sniper shot about to crack that skull but after looking closer it's definitely just the Locust's Lancer shots coming out followed by the heat or smoke trail.
And here's another shot that's taken from a different time in the same game. Face has been penetrated and massive headaches are shown.

nobody ever uses the camera option in the game and does any posting 
We haven't had any standbyers in ages until an entire team from Russia decided to do so after getting their ass handed to them 2-0 in Guardian last night - cussed the hell out of them and they could barely defend themselves when responding...
Cheating morons - I don't get what they feel by having to cheat to win after getting a beatdown, but whatever - update is next week, we'll see what happens with that...
http://gearsofwar.xbox.com, go to Photos at the top right...

I love this one. Looks good too, considering how the graphics take a hit when uploaded.Aladuf said:

I'd be down for a halo/gears night.
How the hell did you get the pic to be that big? I kept looking around to find out on the site but I saw nothing.
edit: nm, got it.. you have to download it not just right click, save as. durr
Bigger versions of the ones I posted earlier. The bullet trail one looks pretty damn cool.

Is the update that's coming out really free or only free for a limited time.
I was hoping they would release an update that would add lambent Wretches and Bezerkers to horde to mix it up. That would be awesome. There would be a whole new level of strategy there.
Also, I hope that they will allow you to narrow the search criteria in the game selection. I have 18 maps and end up playing the same ones most of the time, and people drop out because they don't want to play on River for the 12 time straight.

That one looks pretty badass actually. At least mortars are good for something once in a while.RSTEIN said:Playing with REV and Aladuf earlier today.

Like Third said before in the thread, it reminds me of the brief time where we'd do all the photo-ops in the middle of our games. Good times.

It's probably the worst ranking system ever.
Anywhoo, are we gonna get some private matches going on due to the influx of Gaf players? I long for some Gears action, but the group is always full.
Yeah, I've felt kinda shitty seeing you join the party and then leave right away these past couple of nights because you see there's 5 people. The rooms have actually been (too) full lately as opposed to how it usually is with not enough people. Thing is, I'm pretty sure there's a few of us who pretty much hate Private matches so that's why we've stuck to Public.NubCakes09 said:It's probably the worst ranking system ever.

We need you back in our matches badly, I guess we can do Private if it's too full tonight or we can *hopefully* just have 5 when we start up.
