Sidenote: Anyone else getting an invisible wall on Under Hill when the door raises? The only annoyance on this awesome map, seems like it'd be easy to fix.

"Don't ask, don't tell."

Speaking of telling, anyone want to give me tips on how to fix/attempt to fix my internet so that I can play Gears 2 without waiting 30-45 minutes? I did the port clearing shit already but still nada.

Glad you like the rap :D It literally took me 5 minutes. I was inspired by all the new wonderful and amazing glitches we get to experience.

We just finished playing horde on Fuel Depot. Whenever anyone entered the trailer for the snipe they would get stuck and essentially be out of the game. HOW THE HELL DO YOU LET THIS PASS THROUGH BUG TESTING?

Also: the garage door on Underhill is buggy as hell. Sometimes if you try to pass through the open door it won't let you and you'll find yourself taking cover against an invisible wall.

Plus: anyone notice they're getting stuck on top of the ledges and chest high walls a lot while playing the Snowblind maps? It's like the cover is extra thick so you sometimes you don't jump over it. Weird.

You get stuck/can't go up when trying to go up and over in cover when you're inside near hammer/mortar. I felt like I really was playing Gears 1.
 
I kept getting stuck in the can't shoot/roadie run glitch tonight, but if you go into cover for a few second when glitched, you'll go back to normal...Figured I"d pass that along to anyone who hadn't figured it out yet.

Man, I feel left out with all the Gears 2 madness going on lately. I've been preoccupied playing RE5 with a friend of mine co-op the past few weekends. I should be back in action and up for some Gears goodness this weekend though. And yes, I will be buying the Snowblind maps the next time I turn on my 360!

Awwwwwwww yeah. :D
 
I've had some fantastic games since TU3. Update definitely seems to have smoothed out most of my issues with the game. Feeling a bit more like Gears 1 now.

I haven't noticed much difference in the chainsaw though :/ They still don't do the hit reaction consistently when shot while revving. Chainsaw is completely avoidable though, so it's not the end of the world.

I bought the Snowblind maps as well. Have yet to play them though! If you guys are doing any private matches, hit me up! I should be on most of your friends lists already. Just look for urLeathrCherrio.

They need to undo what they did in TU2, which added a significant delay from roadie running to shooting. Adding delay for melees is fine. But, I need to be able to fire my weapon when I'm in a jam.

amen to that. i can't do anything after rolling / roadie running, and thats just unacceptable. just a thought, but can you roadie run into cover and start firing right away? or is that delay still there?

I don't agree that it should be immediate like in Gears 1 because I don't want the return of everyone gut charging with a shotgun, whoopie!... but I do think it should be toned down a little bit to make it so the shooting isn't so sensitive to quick movements. I fucking hate rolling to the front or side and quickly aiming the shotty on someone and then nothing happens when I pull the trigger. Usually it'll throw me off enough for the person to get a shot off two melees off on me for the oh-so-simple kill.

Yeah, I don't want Gears 2 to be a cracked up wall bounce fest. But addind a little bit more speed wouldn't hurt. I miss that feeling. You know...

Running up to someone, blasting them into hamburger and sliding through the curtain of shredded meat before it lands on the ground. I loved that shit. :lol

Also, once in a while I'll do a quick aim (tap the LT) and shoot and NOTHING happens.

This is precisely why I like it the way it is right now. Before TU3/TU2 the game was very frustrating. Basically almost every encounter would involve someone roadie running+two piece/shoot. Due to the inconsistency of the shotgun (laaag), it was very, very hard to deal with these aggressive types. You could even get two solid shots on someone who's roadie running at you and it would do nothing. Now, the playing field is a lot more level. If someone is running at me then I know I can still get those shots off PLUS I have the opportunity to get one last shot before they can enter into the two peice/shoot after the roadie run.

Yeah, I couldn't stand the shotgun/roadie run bullshit pre TU2.

I'm not sure that's the same thing he was talking about though. He mentioned the same problem I said I was having. It's not that what we're talking about is happening after running up on someone, it's just that I don't like to blindfire my shotgun so when I'm in a shotty battle with someone I'll tap LT real fast to center it up and try to concentrate the shot on the person but when you do that sometimes, nothing will happen and you're just open to take an extra shot while you sit there frantically doing nothing. It's crazy annoying.

Holy shit the new maps are awesome. Underhill is great. And grindyard is amazing, perfect for king of the hill or annex. One of the best games of annex ive ever played. goddam

Everyone, I have something important to share.

Warbegins, ZIROCOOL, REV, and myself were playing Gaurdian on Underhill. REV killed the enemy leader. Noticing he had a star next to his name, REV declared "oh, look, a star, does that mean I'm the queen?"

This statement was followed by an awkward pause. The awkward pause was followed by laughter and mocking.

REV shall be known henceforth as "The Queen."


That is all.

That makes two new nicknames in two nights then. In order to end the confusion in our games between birdman and ThirdEngine... calling them "bird" and "third" respectively gets confusing. Renwood decided to give Third the nickname of Berik or Bearik (think Bear+Erik combined) because he plays Gears like a bear and is named Erik.

edit: Also, sorry war and RJ, I saw your guys' invites earlier but I was only signing on to download the old Gears 1 maps. I wasn't signing on to play quite yet.

Dude, ThirdEngine should simply be nicknamed "boltok" or "magnum." He's got this knack for getting headshots with that beast at all the right times. :lol

You're not the only one to ask, a few of you guys saw me when I was just on playing it and sent messages quickly. Renwood and I wanted to go back and visit our glory days of 1v1 Gears matches. The sniper rifle in that game... :lol... so ridiculously easy to use.
